Episode 17 The Battle of the Coalition Forces (2)

Ya'an Town is located more than ten kilometers east of Changshan City, is a small town with beautiful scenery and pleasant climate, and is also a tourist attraction where many dignitaries and nobles of Yanguo often go on vacation. Today, however, this charming town is heavily guarded, as if it were facing a great enemy, and the atmosphere is quiet and terrifyingly solemn. Thousands of soldiers surrounded the town like a barrel, making it difficult for even a single insect to enter. It was here that Yan Zhao and the leaders of the Blue Star Kingdom were about to have an important high-level meeting on the matter of the coalition forces against the Qin State.

The venue of the meeting was in one of the most luxurious official residences in the center of the town, and Yan Zhao and Lan Xingguo each sent more than 100 soldiers to guard outside the mansion. In the well-arranged conference room, three figures sat in the center around a table, although the meeting had begun for more than half an hour, the venue had been silent for a while, and the atmosphere was even more strange.

"General Schroeder, have you thought about it?" said one of the people sitting in the middle, as if a little impatiently.

This person looks quite young, dressed in a royal robe and brocade robe, looking extremely graceful and luxurious, with a hint of hidden pride on his face. What's even more amazing is that this person turned out to be a powerful cultivator who had reached the early stage of the infant realm.

This young monk is none other than Zhao Mian, the new king of Zhao State, and the little prince of Zhao Man, who was the last Zhao State. After the previous king of Zhao was killed, the capital of Zhao fell, and the Zhao army was defeated and retreated again and again. After leaving the customs, he gathered the remnants of Zhao with strong means, led a large army to resist the Qin soldiers, defeated many Qin attacks in a row, and safely retreated to Yan State, and formed an alliance against Qin State with Yan State. Because King Yan was seriously injured in the recent battle and had to retreat to recuperate, this Zhao Mian, as the highest cultivator in the two countries, naturally became the commander of the two armies.

In the face of Zhao Mian's aggressiveness, Schroeder shook his head, shook off a piece of paper in his hand, and said: "No! I don't agree with either plan!"

"What did you say?" Zhao Mian's face suddenly sank, and he asked in a low voice, as if Schroeder's refusal was an insult to him.

Schroeder did not give in at all because of Zhao Mian's strength, but said firmly: "You want our Blue Star Country to contribute money and strength to help you resist the Qin army, but you don't want us to have the command and control of the army, how is this possible?!

Zhao Mian listened to Schroeder's words, and his face turned angry. He has always been in a high position in Zhao Kingdom, and no one looks down on him except his father, when does anyone dare to contradict him. And he has been in retreat for a long time, and his impression of the Blue Star Kingdom only stays in the past understanding of the Gui Kingdom era, plus he knows that his father has suffered losses in the Blue New Kingdom, so he naturally has a hostile and contemptuous attitude towards the Blue Star Kingdom.

When Zhao Mian was about to have a seizure, the old general on the side stretched out his hand and quietly dissuaded Zhao Sheng, and then said to Schroeder: "General Schroeder, of course we don't regard you as our vassals. In any case, under the current trend of resisting the Qin army, as a member of the Eastern Yanzhou, you Blue Star Nation have the obligation to send troops to assist us in resisting the Qin army. Otherwise, once we let go of the defense line and let the Qin army cross our country, they can directly kill on the border of the Blue Star Country, and then it will be your turn to fall into the flames of war. I guess I must understand which is more important than this. ”

This general is none other than Luo Cheng, the generalissimo of the Yan Army, who has reached the peak of the Dan Realm in cultivation, and is the kind of person who is only one step away from entering the infant realm, and he is also in a high position in the Yan Kingdom, and even Zhao Mian has to give him three points of face.

But Schroeder would not give up the interests of his country because of this man's words, he said with a little resentment: "Of course we understand the reason to fight against the Qin army together, but why do we give our own army to your command? or let us pay eighty percent of the military expenses against the Qin army? Why can't you treat our Blue Star Kingdom as an equal with you, do you think that we ourselves are not capable of fighting against the Qin army?"

After listening to Schroeder's complaint, Luo Cheng lightly wilted his beard and said with a slight smile: "Hehe! It turns out that General Schroeder thinks that we look down on your country a little, this is really a misunderstanding! The general does not know, we Yan and Zhao do not know how many battles we have fought with the Qin army for hundreds of years, and we know them very well, and we naturally have our own methods for dealing with the Qin army, which is by no means comparable to the army of ordinary countries." It's not that we look down on your country, but because your country has not been fighting with the Qin army for a long time, and we don't understand the horror and weakness of the Qin army. Therefore, against the Qin army, of course, we must focus on our Yan and Zhao countries, and your country only needs to support you behind it, which is also the best way to protect your country!"

Hearing Luo Cheng say unashamedly that he knew how to deal with the Qin army, Schroeder couldn't help but sneer in his heart. If Yan and Zhao were really able to deal with the Qin army, how could they end up in today's situation where the king was killed and most of his territory was lost? Not to mention that he had formally fought with the legendary Qin army for ten days, and he had also seen the nervous attitude of the Yan and Zhao armies when facing the Qin army, it was really with an indescribable fear. Therefore, Schroeder has no confidence in the armies of these two countries at all, Luo Cheng said this, but he doesn't want the Blue Star Country to really have the dominance of the alliance, and the real purpose is to secretly control the Blue Star Country.

Seeing that the enemy is currently in power, these two countries still have the idea of embezzling other countries, which shows how greedy this Xiuzhen royal family is. Schroeder secretly shook his head and sighed in his heart, but still insisted: "Two, how powerful the Qin army is, I haven't seen it, I also fought with them ten days ago, and the two generals of the two countries, Le Cheng and Peng An, were also present at that time." As a soldier, I think that against the Qin army, maybe we are better than you!"

Hearing Schroeder's words, Zhao Mian suddenly showed disdain, while Luo Cheng laughed loudly and said, "Your Excellency is too arrogant, right?!" You have only defeated an advance force of the Qin army before, and you have not seen what the real main force of the Qin army looks like, and it is definitely not something that you low-level monk army can resist. General Schroeder, listen to our advice, don't hit the stone with an egg, and be too blindly confident in yourself, the Qin army is not something that your army of low-level monks can deal with!

Schroeder shook his head firmly and refused: "No! I can't accept this proposal, I think this request is too much, we will not agree to this request, sorry! I think we still can't talk, this meeting is over!" After saying that, he got up and straightened his hat, looking like he was about to leave.

At this time, Zhao Mian's face finally changed, and he said angrily: "Stop! Who let you go?! What is the excesses of our demand? Yan and Zhao are on the front line of the resistance against Qin, and they are the countries that have suffered the most, so of course we must be the main one in the confrontation with the Qin army." Your Blue Star Country is located behind us, if it weren't for the two of us desperately blocking the Qin army for you, I'm afraid that tomorrow the Qin army will be able to kill your Blue Star Country Hanzhong City!

Schroeder heard the contempt and unkindness to the Blue Star Kingdom in Zhao Mian's tone, of course he could not accept such an offer, and said categorically: "No matter what, it is absolutely impossible for our Blue Star Country to accept such conditions! To form an alliance against the Qin army, either let our country have the same command as you, or the two of you will resist the Qin State by yourself." Although our Blue Star Country has not been established for a long time, it is an independent country, and we will never hand over our army to others to control, and we will never be afraid of any opponent, whether it is the Qin State or other countries!"

"What do you mean?!How dare you disobey our arrangement?!" Zhao Mian finally couldn't help it and asked.

"What I mean, I made it very clear. And I'm not your subordinate, why should I obey your orders? It seems that the two of you really don't sincerely want our Blue Star Kingdom to help, then I will withdraw my troops and return to China immediately, and you two countries will deal with the Qin army by yourself!" After speaking, Schroeder turned around and left, ignoring the two of them no more.

At this time, Zhao Mian's face was extremely gloomy, his eyes shot out of resentful murderous aura, staring at Schroeder fiercely, powerful mana spread out from his body, and asked coldly: "You are so presumptuous in front of me, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get out of here?!"

Schroeder turned his body, released the spiritual pressure from his body without fear, blocked the spiritual pressure that swept Zhao Mian, and sneered: "What, is General Ben leaving, do you think you can stop it?"

"Hehe! Joke, even a Dan Realm monk dares to be arrogant in front of me, if I don't teach you a good lesson, you Blue Star Kingdom still think that you can be equal to our two countries?!If you can block my three moves, I will let you out of this door, if not, I will leave you here and take in your 30,000 horses!" Zhao Mian sneered, and the spiritual power on his body surged out, turning into an invisible force field, instantly imprisoning the entire conference room.

"Hey, what are you kidding!Why should I take you three times for no reason?!Joke!" Schroeder didn't want to fight him, and he was extremely disgusted with these two people in his heart, so he immediately turned around and left, and at the same time he was about to release a spell to break the forbidden spell released by Zhao Mian.

"I can't help you if you don't take it!First move!" Unexpectedly, Zhao Mian didn't give Schroeder a chance to defend and leave, and suddenly stretched out his big hand, and a powerful spiritual power poured out in front of him, turning into a big spiritual hand on Schroeder's head, and grabbed it fiercely!
