Chapter 23: The Wrath of the Ancient Kingdom of Red Flame
The Great Red Ancient Capital, the capital of the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, the Red Palace, the palace where the lord of the ancient country summoned his ministers to discuss the political affairs of the ancient country.
"Bang!"
Chi Haochang, the current ruler of the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, was furious, and the red gold spirit wood desk in front of him kicked him to pieces, and a violent aura spread from his body, as if a tyrannosaurus was roaring.
"Bastard, shit."
The battle report from the east of the ancient country made Chi Haochang lose his former calm, the crown of red beads with flame patterns on his head was shaking, the red robe of the country lord on his body moved without wind, and his old face was full of anger.
After one hundred and twenty-three years in charge of the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, there has never been such a problem, and now it is suddenly said that the east of the ancient country has been occupied by the Terran Yin Sect, and all the resources and layout of the ancient country in the East over the years have finally fulfilled the Terran Yin Sect.
This is simply a great shame, a shame for the entire Chiyan Ancient Kingdom.
"The lord of the kingdom is angry." In the Red Palace, the civil and military ministers all lowered their heads.
"Calm your anger, how do you make your lord angry?" Chi Haochang was so angry that his body trembled slightly, his right hand stretched out, angrily pointing at Yan Mingxian who had fled back from the front line, and shouted, "Yan Mingjiao, how did the Great Sect of Refining Yan get lost from you?" ”
Yan Mingxuan, who had escaped by chance, bent over, did not dare to raise his head, the sect master's robe on his body was tattered, and said with a disgraced face, "Back to the country lord, the third army of Chiyan was derelict in its duties and failed to support our sect. ”
"Bang!" Chi Haochang's big hand slapped angrily, and the invisible wave of qi slapped Yan Mingqian away, "Bastard, it's all this time, and you are still shirking your responsibility." ”
"Lord of the country, please be careful." The son who finally escaped was slapped away by Chi Haochang like this, but Yan Hongyun, as a father, couldn't see it, he stepped out, caught Yan Mingxian who was about to fall to the ground, and reminded coldly, "The Chiyan Third Army has the responsibility of guarding the Alcheming Sect, but until the Thirteen Mountains of Alchemy are breached, Zhong Changwen's Chiyan Third Army has not been able to go to support, this is not their responsibility, who can it be?" ”
"You..." Chi Haochang was furious in his heart, but he didn't dare to be angry with Yan Hongyun, the head of the Yan family.
It's just because Yan Hongyun is not only the Venerable of the Yuan God Realm, he is also the Marshal of the Protector of the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, and the behind-the-scenes controller of the five major cultivation sects of the Ancient Kingdom.
In addition, he is the spokesperson of the Yan family of the Yan Spirit Clan's 10,000-year-old family in the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, and the entire Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, except for the royal family Chi Family, is the strongest in the Yan family.
Even if he is the lord of the country, in front of Yan Hongyun, he must avoid three points.
Yan Hongyun looked directly at Chi Haochang and said with an unquestionable attitude, "The fault of the Great Sect of Refining Yan is not in Yan Mingxi, but in the Third Army of Chiyan, in Zhong Changwen. ”
In any case, he couldn't let his son Yan Mingxian bear the sin of the loss of the Yan Refining Sect, because it was related to the face of the entire Yan family.
The Yan family, which has been inherited for thousands of years, is not allowed to have stains.
Chi Haochang held back his anger, looked at Yan Hongyun without giving in, and said word by word, "Zhong Changwen has fallen, and the entire Chiyan Third Army is also..."
Zhong Changwen is his confidant and favorite general, in the matter of refining the Yan Sect, even if he is not in every way, but he has already died in battle, Chi Haochang does not want Zhong Changwen to bear a crime that can never be cleared after death.
Of course, Chi Haochang also had the idea of taking the opportunity to attack Yan Hongyun's prestige in his heart.
Seeing that a conflict was about to break out between the Lord of the Nation and the Marshal of the Protector of the Country, the National Teacher Jiuyuan Yunyan came out in time and said, "Lord of the Nation, this is not the time to blame anyone, the top priority is to recapture the Thirteen Mountains of Alchemy as soon as possible." ”
Jiuyuan Yunyan, the national teacher of the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, the Venerable of the Yuan God Realm, and the most trusted one of the country lord Chi Haochang.
"What the national teacher said is reasonable, the Thirteen Mountains of Refining Yan must not fall into the control of the human race." Fang Ping Shankui, the marshal of the town army of the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, also came out to express his thoughts.
The marshal of the town army commanded the ten major legions of the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, and controlled tens of millions of troops under his command, and was the strongest in the military, and his opinion, even Chi Haochang could not ignore it.
The Terran Yin Sect is invading the Ancient Kingdom of Chiyan, and now is by no means the time for the Lord of the Kingdom to break with the Marshal of the Protector.
Therefore, whether it was the national teacher Jiuyun Yunyan or the marshal of the town army, Fang Ping Shankui, they all came out to intervene as soon as possible.
Yan Hongyun didn't want to get too stiff with Chi Haochang, so he changed the topic very interestingly, "The Thirteen Mountains of Lianyan are the barrier of my Chiyan Ancient Kingdom in the east, and I have to take it back no matter what." ”
The Chiyan Ancient Kingdom has always belonged to the Chi family, for the sake of the internal stability of the ancient country, no matter how strong the Yan family is, it can't be too much, especially at this time when the Terran Yin Sect is invading.
Chi Haochang also had a lot of concerns in his heart, and he didn't want to tear his face with the Yan family now, so he was silent.
For a moment, the court became silent.
"Lord of the country, the Terran Yin Sect is not easy to deal with." At this time, Prime Minister Lin Lirui walked out and voiced his concerns.
The crown prince Chi Xicheng asked dissatisfiedly, "Is the prime minister afraid?" ”
Lin Lirui made no secret of his thoughts, "Yes, there is only one Yin Sect to be afraid of, but behind the Yin Sect is the Human Race." ”
The implication is that what he is afraid of is not the Yin Sect, but the Human Race.
As soon as the word human race came out, Jiuyuan Yunyan, Fang Ping Shankui, Yan Hongyun and other high-level officials of the ancient kingdom were silent, in the twenty-one domains of the East Xuan Realm, the strength of the human race was the strongest, and it was also the most united, not to the point of last resort, many foreign races were unwilling to provoke them.
Just starting a war with the Yin Sect, the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom can still accept it, but with a hundred of their courage, they don't dare to declare war with the human race.
Chi Xicheng snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, behind my Chiyan Ancient Kingdom is the Yan Ling Clan, and behind the Yan Ling Clan there is also the Eastern Xuangu Clan, why be afraid of a mere human race?" ”
Prince Chiyan had been a hostage of the Eastern Xuangu Clan for more than ten years, and he only returned to the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom this year, so he had a deep affection for the Eastern Xuangu Clan, in his concept, the Eastern Xuangu Clan was invincible, and the Terran that had risen less than 10,000 years was not the opponent of the Eastern Xuangu Clan at all.
Lin Lirui glanced at Chi Xicheng and said in a serious tone, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must remember that the Eastern Xuangu Clan... As far as our race is concerned, it is also a foreign race like the human race. ”
There are no eternal allies between races, and there are no eternal enemies.
As far as the race is concerned, the intelligent races outside the same race belong to the foreign race.
Chi Xicheng was furious when he heard this, and he wanted to reprimand loudly without even thinking about it, "Prime Minister Lin, you are too presumptuous, you are..."
Without waiting for him to finish, Chi Haochang interrupted categorically, "What the Prime Minister said is very true. ”
"Father..."Chi Xicheng looked up at Chi Haochang in disbelief, in his heart, the Eastern Xuangu Clan was the guardian god of the Yanling Clan, and no one could slander him, but Lin Lirui's remarks and his father's attitude made him feel extremely puzzled.
Chi Haochang glanced at Chi Xicheng coldly, "There is only the lord of the country above the court, and there is no father of yours." ”
"The retainers know that they are wrong, and ask the lord of the country to forgive their sins." Chi Xicheng's body was shocked, and he hurriedly bent down and bowed his head.
Chi Haochang looked around at the ministers present, and asked in a deep voice, "Everyone, the Terran Yin Sect has invaded my Xuanguang Great Domain, this is a war against my Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, do you say, should you start a war with them?" ”
Fang Ping Shankui said without hesitation, "The Xuanguang Great Domain belongs to the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, and if the Terran Yin Sect dares to come in, it must give them a bloody lesson." ”
Chi Xicheng thought for a while, and put forward his suggestion loudly, "Lord of the country, do we want to invite Ziyan, Qingyan and other ancient countries to come to help?" ”
Not long after he returned from the Eastern Xuangu Clan, he couldn't wait to make more of his voice heard in the court to accumulate prestige.
Lin Lirui frowned slightly, and couldn't help but say softly, "His Royal Highness the Prince, among the ancient countries, even if they are of the same race, there is no good class. ”
The Eastern Xuangu clan has a very problem with the education of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, they teach Chi Xicheng too simply, and everything is based on their own feelings, which is a bit unrealistic.
Such an inheritor is not a good thing for the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom.
Chi Xicheng replied dissatisfiedly, "What does the prime minister mean by this?" ”
Lin Lirui explained in a deep voice, "Let the Purple Flame Ancient Kingdom and the Qingyan Ancient Kingdom come, can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince guarantee that they will not be interested in the Xuanguang Great Domain like the Terran Yin Sect?" ”
"I ......" Chi Xicheng was dumbfounded, he really hadn't thought about this question.
"Lord of the country, only one Yin Sect cannot represent the human race, with the strength of our Chiyan Ancient Kingdom, it is enough to suppress the Yin Sect." Lin Lirui bowed down to Chi Haochang and said in a loud voice, "Before the Terran Race declares war on our Clan, Weichen does not recommend that the forces of other ancient kingdoms in the Clan join this war. ”
Fang Ping Shankui also followed, "The minister also agrees with the Prime Minister's suggestion, our soldiers are absolutely capable of suppressing the Yin Sect, and there is no need for foreign aid at all." ”
Chi Haochang nodded and said, "Okay, then start a war with the Yin Sect, recapture the Eastern Land, and drive all the human races that invaded the Refining Yan Mountain out of the Xuanguang Domain." ”
"The lord of the country, Yingyin!" The civil and military ministers shouted in unison.
Chi Haochang's gaze fell on the marshal of the town army and asked, "So, how should this battle be fought?" ”
Fang Ping Shankui pondered for a while and said, "The First Army wants to protect the national capital, the Second Army is on the border line to guard against the Ziyan Ancient Kingdom, the Fourth Army is also on the border, and there are also the fifth, sixth, and seventh legions that can be used. ”
"The establishment of my Chiyan Ancient Kingdom is a legion with a minimum of one million troops, and three legions are three million troops, which is enough to deal with the Yin Sect."
"It's a pity that because the ancient city of Qiyan is adjacent to the Xuanxue Great Domain, the human race does not allow our country to have too many troops stationed there, so the third army of Chiyan can only support 300,000 troops, if the third army of Chiyan can have a complete structure, how can it..."
In the end, Fang Ping Shankui sighed lightly and did not continue.
National Teacher Jiuyun Yunyan glanced at Yan Hongyun, who was silent, and said, "Lord, you can also let the other four major cultivation sects of the Ancient Kingdom also go out together. ”
Chi Haochang's eyes lit up, and he asked knowingly, "What does the national teacher mean is to let the Yan Sword Great Sect, the Three Spirit Pill Sect, the Illusion Mirror Xuanzong, and the Spirit Yan War Sect also go out with the army?" ”
Jiuyun Yunyan didn't look at Yan Hongyun's gloomy face, and said to himself, "Yes, the five major cultivation sects are one, the Great Sect of Refining Yan was captured by the Yin Sect, and the other four major sects have the obligation to help take it back." ”
Fang Ping Shankui also echoed and said, "The Sword Dao Attack Technique of the Yan Sword Sect is unique, and the disciples of the Spirit Yan War Sect are all brave and good at fighting, and they are most suitable for serving the country on the battlefield. ”
"The Three Spirit Pill Sect is good at refining pills, and their disciples can treat wounded soldiers on the battlefield."
"Phantom Mirror Xuanzong is good at the method of arranging formations, and can provide formation support for the army."
Chi Haochang couldn't help but smile, looked at Yan Hongyun with interest, and asked, "Yan Zun, what do you think?" ”
"As it should be." Yan Hongyun made a statement with an ugly face, the five major cultivation sects in the Chiyan Ancient Kingdom were all supported by the Yan family, and they were the power of the Yan family.
But Chi Haochang's words made him have to make a choice, which naturally made him feel very dissatisfied, the problem is that the Great Sect of Refining Yan also belongs to the Yan family, if the other four major sects do not contribute, Chi Haochang will most likely not send troops, so Yan Hongyun has no choice.
Jiuyun Yunyan and Chi Haochang also grasped this point, and they successfully pulled the four major sects and the Yan family into the camp.
Chi Haochang was overjoyed by this, laughing and announcing, "Hahaha... Yan Zun still has a general understanding, then ask Yan Zun to personally lead the four major cultivation sects to follow the army to participate in the war against the Yin Sect. ”
"No." Yan Hongyun quickly and calmly took the order.
