When they received the news of the barbarians' raid on the construction site of the city wall, the four great elders expressed their shock.

Elder Qian said angrily: "The barbarians are so bold that they openly attack the God Realm, it is simply too hateful. ”

Elder Li sighed and said, "We just slaughtered one of their villages, and they immediately retaliated against us, this kind of thing has never happened before, where did the barbarians get the confidence?"

For thousands of years, the barbarians rarely openly confronted the Protoss, and the Protoss often sent encirclement and suppression troops to conquer them.

Because the barbarians have limited strength and limited numbers, they are not the opponents of the Protoss at all, and they can only choose to flee in the face of conquest.

It is the first time that tens of thousands of people have acted together like today.

Elder Sun frowned and said, "Obviously, the barbarians knew that we had injured our vitality in the previous beast tide, so they had the courage to come and take revenge. ”

Elder Zhao's face sank like water, and he snorted: "Even the barbarians dare to brush the tiger's whiskers, but we are unprepared, resulting in a big loss, this is really a resounding slap in the face, I believe it can wake up many people." How's the casualty statistics going, haven't the people sent to send back the news yet?"

Elder Ma pushed open the door and walked in, saying, "Four Great Elders, there is news from the north, after preliminary statistics, our casualties are more than 30,000. ”

Elder Li's eyes widened: "No, there is no mistake, how can there be so many?"

Elder Ma smiled bitterly: "I don't believe it either, but the situation is like this, the people on the construction site are very tired, and they are asleep when they are attacked by sneak attacks, and there are more than 10,000 enemies, so it is reasonable to kill more than 30,000 of us." ”

Elder Li sighed, "How many corpses did the other party leave?"

"A few hundred. Elder Ma said cautiously.

Elder Zhao became angry and asked, "How many are a few hundred?"

The corners of Elder Ma's mouth twitched, and he replied, "No more than three hundred." ”

Elder Zhao slammed the table, stood up, and said, "The barbarians exchanged the lives of more than 30,000 Protoss at the cost of 300 people, one to 100, this battle is too revealing! Immediately notify the people who handled the scene, and let them rush to transport the corpses as quickly as possible, and be sure to complete it before dawn, and then declare that our casualties will be less than 10,000 and the barbarians will suffer 6,000 casualties." ”

Elder Ma frowned slightly: "Do you have to dispose of the barbarian's corpse too?"

"Nonsense!" Elder Zhao glared at him and said, "Didn't you hear just now, Elder Ben said that the barbarians suffered six thousand casualties, but there were less than three hundred corpses at the scene, how to explain?"

Elder Ma's eyes tightened: "Understood, I will personally deal with this matter and ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”

Elder Li and Elder Sun glanced at each other, and their expressions were equally lonely.

Elder Qian opened his mouth and said, "Before the barbarians retreated, they shouted that they wanted to seek revenge on Ye Yunyang and Li Hao, what do you think of this matter?"

Elder Li didn't think about it and said, "Send people to protect them, they are people who have made war exploits, and they are regarded as enemies by the barbarians, and we can't ignore them." ”

Elder Zhao's face looked a little better, and said, "It turns out that Ye Yunyang is on our side, and the suspicion of him can be lifted, let him stay in the Alliance Academy and not go out, as for Li Hao, he is Elder Li's junior, and you will be responsible for his safety." ”

Elder Li nodded, "That's very good." ”

Before this, Elder Ma said that Ye Yunyang's heart was towards the barbarians, and there were signs of betraying the Protoss, which proved to be slander, if he was really with the barbarians, how could the other party hype up killing him.

Therefore, the world is unpredictable, and being misunderstood is not necessarily all suspicion, Ye Yunyang escaped without knowing it.

After daybreak, the Presbyterians put up notices in prominent places in the city detailing what had happened last night.

"The barbarians attacked and killed more than 6,000 of us before they killed less than 10,000 of us. The onlookers spoke.

"Who said no, they must be dizzy, the total number is not more than 10,000 people, and they have lost half of them at one time, and they have no chance to turn over for at least a few decades!"

"Don't talk about decades, you can't give them hundreds of years. ”

The onlookers were overjoyed, but some people suspected that it was the person who was lucky enough to escape yesterday who clearly remembered that five or six thousand people had died at the construction site where he was located, and that there were six construction sites that had been attacked, and the total number of casualties did not exceed 10,000.

On the other hand, the barbarians only left a few dozen corpses, and the sum of the six places could not reach six thousand.

But no one dared to question the authority of the Presbyterian Church, they could only bury their doubts deep in their hearts.

Ye Yunyang came to Lei Shaoyuan's office and stopped talking.

Lei Shaoyuan walked away from the two teachers who were originally sitting opposite and motioned for Ye Yunyang to sit down.

Without waiting for Ye Yunyang to speak, he said first: "I know what you want to ask, the numbers on the notice are fake." ”

"Sure enough, it's fake. Ye Yunyang raised his eyebrows and asked, "What about the real data?"

Lei Shaoyuan lowered his voice: "Close to forty thousand, it is said that at least no less than thirty thousand seven eight, and the other party's casualties are less than three hundred." ”

Ye Yunyang smiled: "Say 40,000 as 10,000, and 300 as 6,000, the elders really turn their hands into clouds and rain with their hands, is it interesting to hide the facts, in case one day it is exposed, how to explain it?"

Lei Shaoyuan smiled indifferently: "Let's talk about it after passing the current level first, this is the usual trick of the Elders' Council, even if it is dug up in the future, it will be solved by other means." Unfortunately, you said that you did not hurry up to build the city wall, and in the end, something happened, and the four elders have reached an agreement to abolish the previous decision, withdraw all the laborers, and build the inner city in the shortest possible time to avoid similar sneak attacks from happening again. ”

It turned out that it was wrong to build the city on the original site, let's just say that the incident that happened last night, because the inhabitants of the city were hit and lived in the central area, dozens of miles away from the city wall, and when an accident occurred, although the reinforcements rushed to the city, it still took a long time, resulting in the inability to reinforce in time, causing a heavy price, and at the same time allowing the enemy to flee.

Ye Yunyang smiled contemptuously: "It's just a matter of making amends! They changed the casualty figure so low, it is nothing more than to make everyone feel that they have not suffered a loss, it seems that they want to swallow this evil breath, right?"

"I can't hide anything from you. Lei Shaoyuan showed an approving gaze: "That's right, the four elders chose to swallow their anger, because it is not appropriate to send people out of the city to encircle and suppress now, when the main task is to build the inner city, only by doing a good job of their own defense, can they have the opportunity to fight others." But don't worry, the four elders are all ruthless characters, they are only temporarily patient, and when the time is ripe, they will definitely send a conscription force to kill them. ”

Ye Yunyang frowned, but he still swallowed the words when he came to his mouth.

Although he didn't know the true situation of the barbarians, during the time in Teng Village, it was not difficult to judge from the words of the old patriarch and Teng Xing'an that the number of barbarians was definitely more than 10,000, and if the elders would send troops on this basis, in most cases, they would suffer losses.

The reason why he didn't say it was because there was no evidence, it was just his own speculation, which was unconvincing, and the second was that he was extremely shameless about the slaughter of the village by the Protoss, and he didn't feel that the barbarians' revenge was wrong, and it was better to let the Protoss suffer a little loss.

Lei Shaoyuan said: "You and Li Hao have become the enemies of the barbarians, obviously you have been wronged, but you should also be careful." By the way, Li Hao's betrayal of Tengcun was publicized by Elder Li, and according to general thinking, he should protect his juniors, which is a bit intriguing. ”

Ye Yunyang frowned: "You mean, Elder Li did this on purpose, right?"

"On the face of it. Lei Shaoyuan said: "But I don't understand, although Li Hao has made contributions, he doesn't show his face much in essence, just give rewards in private, why make it public?"

"It's better to be open, at least let me see his essence clearly. Ye Yunyang said in a deep voice.

The topic was a little heavy, and Lei Shaoyuan said: "The Elders' suspicion of you has been completely lifted, thanks to the words of the barbarians when they withdrew, the Great Elders believe that you can't collude with them, and Elder Ma's conspiracy is declared bankrupt. ”

Ye Yunyang didn't take it seriously, the surname Ma was just temporary, slandering him for having an ambiguous relationship with the barbarian, but he couldn't come up with evidence at all, even if there was no incident last night, it would be over in the end.

The construction of the inner city was very fast, and in just twenty days, it was already beginning to take shape.

The height of the inner castle is the same as the original city wall, the width is slightly narrower, the main construction is basically completed, and the rest is all fine work, which has to be carried out slowly.

The heaviest works are over, and nearly three million laborers can breathe.

The inner city is only one-sixth the size of the original city, which is very shabby, and the main thing is that the overall planning of the city walls is extremely unreasonable, and there are various problems in many places.

This was caused by the rush of work, many details were not considered, the project was launched, and coupled with the pressure of the presbyterian council, it was completed in the shortest possible time, which is a miracle.

Although it is not a tofu scum project, compared with the original city wall, this inner city is barely qualified.

......

"Hahaha! The Protoss is so shameless that they are ashamed to say that we have lost half of our people. Teng Xingan laughed.

Because of the success of his last retaliation, he is now one of the leaders of the barbarians, and nearly 10,000 people obey his orders.

The person in charge of finding out the news said: "The Protoss has spent energy to build an inner city, which looks very good, but in fact it does not work, as long as we are willing, we can break it without much effort. ”

"Uncle, I'm willing to go into the city to find out the news. The young man sitting opposite Teng Xing'an said loudly.

"Xiaomi, your injuries haven't healed yet, let's talk about it later. Teng Xing'an refused.

The young man was Mi Yun, his face was pale, and he looked like he had not recovered from his serious injuries, and said: "At the beginning, you also led everyone to attack the God Realm when you were still injured, why can't I go on a mission? ”

The reason why Mi Yun survived was because his physical condition was different from others, his heart was on the right side, and the feather arrow that shot him did not hurt the vital point, so he picked up a life.

Teng Xing'an looked at his nephew with a resolute expression and said, "Okay, since you insist, my uncle has no reason to refuse, but you must be careful, how cunning the Protoss is, you must pay more attention to fighting with them." ”

Mi Yun nodded: "Don't worry, I'll pay attention." ”
