When Yuan Lai saw Chen An's smiling face, he knew that the other party had heard the conversation outside the door just now. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Sure enough, Chen An took the lead in laughing and said: "If you ask for guilt, you don't need to, it is said that you have to be promoted if you put your military exploits in the military." ”

Yuan Lai smiled faintly, walked over and said a few polite words, and then asked, "I don't know what the general is doing when he comes to me late at night?"

When it came to business, Chen An suddenly became serious, and he suddenly walked to a table in the middle of the room, on which was covered with a huge map.

The man looked down at the map and said, "Come and see." ”

Yuan Lai approached, looked down and saw that this map was a map of the entire territory of Qiguo, in his impression that there were very few maps circulating among the people of Qiguo, even if there were, it was only the kind of rough, only the kind that drew the city and official roads, and the fine maps were in the hands of the imperial court.

And the one in front of him has almost all the details drawn on it, and this kind of map is almost difficult to replace.

I don't know how the Northwest Army measured it, and from the point of view of precision, it will never be worse than the royal map.

At this time, on the map, a curved blue line is clearly marked, like the green tendons of the human body, which is extremely eye-catching.

"This is the battle line between the two armies, and here we are now. Chen An said, pointing to several directions on the map, Yuan came to look at it, and nodded.

"The marshal led the main force from here, fighting against the strongest soldiers and horses of the imperial court along the way, and the third road was led by General Wei, here. As he spoke, his thick fingers tapped the name of a place to the north.

Yuan Lai suddenly remembered that this General Wei should be the father of the little fat man Wei Batu.

"These three armies marched along three routes, and eventually they were to come together, which was Kyoto. Chen An pointed his finger on the map and said.

Seeing that Yuan came to comprehend, he suddenly sighed and said: "Today's battle with the officers and soldiers of Xiangzhou, I have almost figured out the strength of the imperial court's soldiers and horses, it can be said that in terms of the combat strength of the army alone, they are even worse than I expected!"

"That's a good thing. Yuan said.

"Yes, this is a good thing, but the war between the two armies is only one aspect, and the other is not optimistic. ”

"The general refers to the cultivators?"

Chen An nodded heavily and sighed, "At the cultivator level, we are too weak. ”

"Does the general mean high-end combat power or mid-to-low-end?" Yuan Lai's eyes flashed slightly and asked.

Chen An was stunned, and his gaze at Yuan Lai suddenly changed.

"What do you think?" he asked rhetorically.

Yuan Lai hesitated slightly, and said: "At the beginning of my coming out, I learned a lot from General Jiang, and I also compared the cultivators of the two sides, and the high-end combat power also refers to the Four Realms Grandmaster, on the surface, the four major sects in the world account for three of them, but I think that at the level of the Four Realms, the two sides should be half a catty and eight taels." ”

"Oh? Why?"

Yuan Lai analyzed: "Because of selfishness. Taking the four major sects as an example, the three factions of the Northern Sect, Qiguangyuan, and Taiyi Sect in the imperial court, among which Qiguangyuan and Taiyi Sect actually do not have a reason to stand in the imperial court, but will have concerns, His Royal Highness Zhang Ling claimed that His Majesty is dead, and now he is being taken away, which sounds incredible, but it should be true, in this case, I don't believe that those sects will not be jealous of the current emperor, after all, they are not sure what the person who took away the emperor is going to do. ”

"The reason why they stand in line with the imperial court should be that His Royal Highness Zhang Ling will undoubtedly lose, so even if they participate in the war, they will not fight hard for the imperial court, even if they are for self-protection, they will keep their hands, I think, there must be internal disagreements about this war, and no matter who wins in the end, their position will not be fundamentally shaken, so these two sects will not contribute very much. ”

Chen An's eyes lit up and said, "Go on!"

Yuan Lai smiled lightly: "As for the Northern Sect, it has just gone through a great turmoil, people's hearts are unstable, and their vitality has been greatly damaged, and even after purging, the hidden dangers left behind are still there, even if they go all out to participate in the war, they are not as strong as in the past." On the contrary, the sects on our side can't escape, once they join the war, they will be complicit in rebellion, if they lose, it will be the end of the sect, and in this case, they will never stay. ”

Chen An asked, "What you are talking about are just ordinary sects, but what about the Southern Sect? They also have the ability to watch from the wall." ”

Yuan Lai shook his head and said, "If the Southern Sect is just to survive, it is true that they can not go all out, but since they have chosen to form an alliance with Zhang Ling, it already shows that they have made up their minds. The contradiction between the two sects in the north and south has a long history, starting from the earliest Zen sect, the patriarchs of the two factions are one north and one south, abandoning the Zen path at the beginning, there is a contradiction that cannot be dissolved, this feud has lasted for hundreds of years, in recent years, the northern sect has been supported by the imperial court, the overall strength has surpassed the southern sect, the situation of the southern sect is similar to the northwest army, if it drags on, sooner or later it will be swallowed, so since they chose to form an alliance, they saw that this opportunity is rare, and it coincided with the great injury of the northern sect, at this time they had to go all out to help Zhang Ling go one way to the top, only in this way can they get rid of the dangerous situation!"[Note]

Yuan Lai exhaled deeply and concluded: "So, I think that above the four realms, we are not weak, but the role that the four realms can play is limited, and it is those two realms and three realms that can really help the army win, and here, we are very weak!"

After saying this, Chen An was already overjoyed, he didn't expect Yuan Lai to be young, and he had learned to look at the overall situation.

He nodded and said, "You're right, this is also something we are worried about, at the beginning of the war, the four realms have not yet been put into the battlefield, but the cultivators of the second and third realms have already begun to participate in the war. We are too weak on this point, and we have come to you tonight for this purpose. ”

Yuan Lai raised his eyebrows and made a listening gesture.

The lights and shadows in the room flickered, and Chen An's shadow was projected on the map, like a dark cloud.

"Your cultivation should have reached the peak of the Three Realms. Chen An asked.

Yuan Lai nodded, there was no need to hide this matter.

Chen Anxin sighed in admiration, and then said: "After learning about your strength, I thought about it for a long time, and felt that it was too wasteful to let you here, you can easily kill Zhao Baiyang, this strength can also be ranked in the forefront of the peak of the Three Realms, it can be said that as long as you don't meet the Great Cultivator of the Four Realms, you can almost run rampant on the battlefield, and my team can indeed increase your strength by putting you here, but it is still a waste after all, so I think you should go to another place." ”

"Is it going to the middle lane?" Yuan Lai guessed.

"No, there is a big handsome in the middle lane, and the big handsome is a cultivator in the four realms after all, so it's not appropriate for you to go to the middle lane. ”

"So where do I go?"

Chen An suddenly raised his finger and landed somewhere on the map, and said in a deep voice: "Here, I think it is the most appropriate!"

Note: This is the background of the world, and I forgot to mention it before.
