Chapter 169: International Trends and Personal Honor and Disgrace

"There are dozens more of them than us, and we can't take advantage of the fight, what should we do next?" Someone hurriedly asked.

Zhu Feng touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

There are generally two directions to the selection. One is forward, the other is backward.

Moving forward means continuing with the previous arrangement, searching for treasure for loot; Backwards means avoiding war, in order to avoid conflict with He Chengfeng's people, directly give up these treasures in front of you.

Giving up will undoubtedly make people unwilling.

The other party has bullied the other party, everyone is a bloody soldier, there is no reason to swallow their anger, make compromises, give the benefits to the other party in vain, and retreat like a lost dog.

Just looking at everyone's expressions, Su An knew that the team would not choose to go backwards.

Then choose to move on.

There is likely to be a war going forward.

"Can you talk openly and honestly with He Chengfeng without going to war?" Someone asked.

Before anyone could answer this question, the man himself shook his head.

Zhu Feng said sharply: "If He Chengfeng is a decent person, then of course we can talk, because everyone has a bottom line of principles and can abide by the rules."

"But what's there to talk about with the bad guys? That's a tiger skin.

"Even if the other party agrees in advance, there is a high probability that they will regret it afterwards. The so-called openness and honesty is just to let the other party prepare in advance. ”

The soldiers bowed their heads one after another, basically agreeing with this statement.

Su An was surprised again, these people's minds were so strong-blooded, even in the face of unfavorable difficulties, they had no illusions, and there was no slightest luck.

This is not something that a normal team can do.

Since you want to fight, then the question becomes another: can you fight?

Then there is the question of how to fight.

There was not much time, and everyone began to discuss at a rapid pace.

Under the chairmanship of Zhu Feng, the captains of all sizes spoke in turn from left to right, and the content was very brief, no one spoke at length, and no one interrupted others.

When several captains had expressed their opinions, Zhu Feng made a slight summary, put forward some of the final proposals and then threw out some questions, and started the next round of discussions.

If so, when the three rounds of speeches were completed and the plan was established, the total time was only 10 minutes.

This kind of efficiency made Su An dumbfounded.

Undoubtedly, this is clearly in the style of the military.

But even in the military, there are few such resolute and resolute discussions.

"If anyone tells me again, this is a temporary ragtag team, I will be the first to rush with him!" Zheng Nanzhi was also stunned on the side.

Combined with the experience of fighting giant beasts, she felt that she had actually fallen into a group of immortals for some reason.

......

"You guys are ready, if things don't go wrong, once I send a signal, the ministries will start action in advance and catch them off guard!"

After saying this, He Chengfeng waved his hand and motioned for the team to join Zhu Feng's manpower and enter the hill cave mansion together.

He himself greeted Zhu Feng with a smile, and the two stood on the branches of the giant tree together, overlooking the audience and controlling the overall situation.

Because there is no need to search by yourself, and the team will not have problems easily, the two chatted about the world when they had nothing to do, in order to distract Zhu Feng's attention, He Chengfeng took the lead in opening the chatterbox:

"Where is Captain Zhu from?"

I'm your dad, can you not use such an old-fashioned opening statement...... Zhu Feng scolded and smiled kindly: "Zhongshan people." ”

"Oh?" He Chengfeng smiled, "Zhongshan is sandwiched between several big countries, and the living environment has never been very good, I heard that the border has not been very peaceful over the years, I don't know what Captain Zhu thinks of such an international situation?" ”

Zhu Feng said twice: "Our situation is very good. ”

The situation of Zhongshan is indeed not good, with Yan in the northeast, Qi in the southeast, Zhao in the northwest, and Wei in the southwest.

Yan, Qi, Zhao, and Wei are all among the seven great powers in the world!

If it weren't for the fact that there are a few small and medium-sized countries around Zhongshan Country, just by virtue of this geographical location, it would have to be eaten to the bones and dregs.

However, although there were still a few neighboring countries around Zhongshan, most of these neighboring countries voted for Yanqi Zhao Wei, and they only looked after the other party in everything, and in fact became the vassal states of the other party.

Although Zhongshan is not as strong as the seven powers, it has quite a national strength, but it is only weaker than them.

If you really want to be someone else's little brother, first of all, Zhongshan Guo himself is not happy, and secondly, other countries do not allow it, after all, the top four are on the side, and the other three will not sit idly by.

Yanqi and Zhao Wei both wanted to swallow Zhongshan, and at the same time prevent other countries from annexing Zhongshan, so Zhongshan became a victim of the geopolitical game of the great powers, and domestic unrest and contradictions arose.

Comparatively speaking, the strength of the Yan Kingdom in the top four is slightly weaker, and the pressure on the Zhongshan Kingdom is the least, so the relationship between the two sides is a little better.

That's why they were able to form a temporary alliance this time.

Looking at the whole world, now the demon clan is weak, and the main forces are divided into four parts: southeast, northwest, and northwest, all of which are in remote and poor places, with limited resources and ordinary strength, and internal contradictions, and they have not joined forces to attack the human kingdom for a long time.

Therefore, human beings are powerful.

The place where the demon clan in the north is located, there is very little fertile soil, and most of the territory has been frozen for thousands of years, which is really not a good place to thrive, and the strength has been worse day by day for one or two thousand years.

The Yan Kingdom lives next to them, and most of the time they have to fight against the entire Northern Demon Clan with one country, so the pressure is greater.

If several powerful countries really unite, the Northern Demon Clan will not be able to be arrogant.

This is also the reason why, after a thousand years, the Northern Demon Clan has gone to great lengths to open the ruins. They need to use the legacy of the ancient demon clan in the ruins to improve their strength.

The demon clan in the south of the Xia Shang Continent is in a similar situation to the demon clan in the north, and they also live in the treacherous and barren mountains.

Don't say that the Northern Expedition gathers national strength, and it is good if it can continue to suffer year after year.

The situation of the demon clan in the western realm is slightly better, but the western realm is too far away from Zhongzhou, and there are natural dangers such as the big desert and snowy mountains in the middle, and it is even more difficult for them to fight back.

The Eastern Demon Clan lives on the island, with the smallest number of people, and there is an almost impassable area such as the Whirlpool Sea as a natural barrier, whether the people on the mainland want to fight over, or the demon clan on the island wants to fight back, it is a fool's dream.

Unless the human kingdom is willing to cooperate and form an alliance fleet, or the island demon clan joins forces with the northern and southern demon clans, no one will easily go deep into the vortex sea.

In short, the Seven Great Powers have little interest in the remote places where the demon clan now lives.

Zhongzhou is rich, rich in land and resources, so what the seven great countries are pursuing now is to seize more territory in Zhongzhou and enhance their own national strength.

In recent centuries, they have been stepping up their annexation of small and medium-sized countries around them, and the mainland has been fighting frequently and endlessly.

Whether it is Yan Country or Zhongshan Country, it is located in the north of the mainland, and with the sword of the Northern Demon Clan hanging above his head, it is already quite difficult to deal with the other party, and if he wants to intervene in the mainland situation, he is often more than willing but not enough.

In the long run, everyone's national strength will disappear from one another, and the ending of Yan and Zhongshan will definitely not be related to beauty.

He Chengfeng opened this topic at this time, of course, he couldn't finish talking in a few words, and it was easy to lead to a tirade, he just deliberately wanted to take away some more of Zhu Feng's mind.

Zhu Feng was very cooperative, although he didn't say much about the situation in Zhongshan Kingdom, he kicked the ball back to He Chengfeng's feet:

"No matter how complicated the international situation is facing in Zhongshan, there is an opportunity to intervene in the situation on the mainland, and maybe when it encounters the right opportunity, it will be able to rise to a new world.

"On the other hand, the Bohai Sea is a country that hangs alone in the northeast, the land is vast and sparsely populated, the door is open to the sea, and the whirlpool storm blocks the shipping route, and there is no opportunity to trade with overseas. To the west is the Changling Mountain Range and the demon clan in the north, but the passage was blocked by the Yan Kingdom when they wanted to go south.

"With all due respect, the Bohai Kingdom is destined to be an orphan.

"No matter what the international situation is, the Bohai State has no chance to really develop and grow, and it will face the dilemma of stunted growth for eternity, and it will sink step by step in the years."

These words directly made He Chengfeng silent.

The location of the Bohai Kingdom is there, it is indeed a congenital deficiency, if you want to be in a safe corner, you have to guard against the attack of the demon clan at all times, and if you want to develop, there is a big mountain of Yan Country at the door.

So, this time we must make a difference in the ruins! He Chengfeng responded silently.

The demon clan in the north wants to borrow the many treasures in the ruins to improve their strength and restore the glory of the ancients, why doesn't the Bohai Kingdom want to rely on these things to break the deadlock, so as to have the opportunity for the army to go south and break the Yan Kingdom into Zhongzhou?

The future is in Zhongzhou, and it is also in this ruin.

But the strength of the Bohai Kingdom is weak, Mo said that compared with the Yan Kingdom, even the Zhongshan Kingdom is inferior, this time the transcendents of the Three Kingdoms went deep into the secret realm to seize the treasure, if the transcendents of the Bohai Kingdom have no means and no thoughts, it will definitely be a loss to the lady and the army.

Before leaving, the above explained to He Chengfeng very clearly:

This time into the Changling Mountains, the Bohai Kingdom is doing its best, but their own family is thin, and they are absolutely not allowed to lose too many soldiers, and when they get to the ruins, you must not only seize the treasure, but also preserve your strength!

He Chengfeng knew very well that once the casualties on this trip were too large, it would be difficult to make up for it in the future.

Before Zhu Feng and the others fought against the giant beast, He Chengfeng actually heard the movement early, but he did not intervene rashly, but waited for the opportunity to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

In his imagination, even if Zhu Feng and the others died, he would be able to collect all kinds of weapons and materials from the other party afterwards.

Although these things are not as good as the relics and treasures, they are also a valuable harvest when placed outside.

What He Chengfeng didn't expect was that in the face of more than 300 giant beasts, Zhu Feng and the others actually won.

From that moment on, he judged that this team was extraordinary, and that they would be able to gain something in the ruins. So he sought to cooperate with Zhu Feng and wanted to join forces.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Feng actually rejected his proposal.

He Chengfeng was very unhappy, but he didn't show it, he just sent the tenth-level powerhouses in the team who were good at tracking and concealing to secretly follow Zhu Feng and the others.

Exploring the ruins is risky, whether it is a demon monk, or a gap in time and space, including the turbulence of the Force, it is an existence that can take people's lives.

Instead of taking risks by yourself and crossing the river by feeling the stones, it is better to follow behind Zhu Feng and the others and let Zhu Feng's team open the way for them.

In this way, the risk is Zhu Feng and the others, once the other party discovers the treasure, they can also get out in time to get involved, relying on their own strength to share the other party's benefits.

And if there are enough treasures and big enough harvests, they can eat enough at one time, then they can still take advantage of their unpreparedness to stab them in the back, kill people and seize the treasures and escape!

Afterwards, you can leave the ruins directly and do not continue your adventure in the ruins.

As far as the Bohai Kingdom is concerned, the more treasures the better, which is related to the country's plans, but as far as He Chengfeng is concerned, as long as the treasures are enough, national affairs are not something he can control, and they can't bring him immediate benefits, so it has nothing to do with him.

As long as the harvest reaches a certain standard, He Chengfeng will naturally be promoted with this merit and get a bright future after he returns.

And if there are many treasures, they are not all his own, and he has to hand them over, but staying in the ruins for a moment will be more risky, and the gains outweigh the losses.

When you see it, you will accept it, and it is only right to bring the treasure back in time to establish the credit.

Perfect.

Everything was perfect.

Because of this perfection, He Chengfeng didn't mind the offense in Zhu Feng's words too much, what he cared about now was how much his team could gain in the Hill Cave Mansion, and whether there was a chance to eat these treasures in one bite.

He looked closely at the hills and didn't look at Zhu Feng much.

So, while he was unprepared, Zhu Feng made a move!
