Under the bright luminous beads, Xiao Shizhu's words quickly spread out of the building and echoed around the high platform.

All the ghosts who participated in the state banquet heard it really clearly and clearly.

Lu Wu and Chunyun were stunned for a moment, and then looked at each other.

This sudden decision was made by Lu Wu and Chunyun, the two high-ranking officials of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, who had nothing to know before.

The two ghosts looked at each other, and after a little thought, they both felt that this might be Xiao Shizhu's decision, as always, on the impromptu side.

It's just that the deep meaning behind this, Chunyun and Lu Wu didn't understand it for a while, and they couldn't see it clearly.

It was not only Lu Wu and Chunyun who were suddenly stunned, but also the Qingqiu Fox King and Fox Shidou, and after being stunned, I don't know why Xiao Shizhu suddenly came to such a scene?

"If the Qingqiu Fox King is willing, we will be brothers of the opposite sex. Xiao Shizhu burped loudly again, and continued to say aloud: "You and I have become brothers, and our two countries are also brothers; ”。

Such an important state affair, Xiao Shizhu decided so easily, no matter how you look at this matter, I feel a little hasty and sloppy.

Xiao Shizhu was like a complete faint monarch for a while. And it's a very incompetent kind of faint king.

Although the ministers present in the Nine Shadows Kingdom did not say anything and remained silent, they were very surprised in their hearts. Today's lord is really strange, just like going out in the morning, the ghost head has been caught by the door countless times.

Moreover, he also lost his Xiao Shizhu's past wisdom and cunning.

Just when the ghost ministers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom were secretly surprised, Xiao Shizhu said aloud with great interest: "After so many years of fighting, it's time to rest. We want peace, a good life in peace, not war. As long as you and I are brothers, there will be no more war in Dongyingzhou, and I can rest easy. ”。

"Did you say that?" At the end, he also asked the Qingqiu Fox King.

All this is great news for the Qingqiu Fox King.

He originally thought that Xiao Shizhu's mediocrity was half-true and half-true, but now in his eyes of the Qingqiu Fox King, the Nine Shadows King who was next to him was indeed not an opponent.

Even this kind of promise to never be an enemy can be promised casually, this Xiao Shizhu is really mediocre and incompetent.

The Qingqiu Fox King secretly rejoiced in his heart, and despised Xiao Shizhu fiercely, feeling that all the feats and great achievements of this Nine Shadows King before were just good luck.

In addition, there are capable ministers like Lu Wu, so there is today's Nine Shadows Kingdom, but it has nothing to do with Xiao Shizhu.

Xiao Shizhu has already labeled a waste in the heart of the Qingqiu Fox King.

Moreover, the Qingqiu Fox King also felt that Xiao Shizhu had to be promised this matter of being called a brother and a brother. Anyway, you can go back, but now you don't agree in vain.

The key is that he Qingqiu Fox King's trip is to confuse Xiao Shizhu.

Looking at it now, Xiao Shizhu has been confused. took the initiative to send the big pie that the Nine Shadows Country is not an enemy of the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom, and took the initiative to send it to the mouth of the Qingqiu Fox King, can you not eat it?

The Qingqiu Fox King discovered in an instant that there was really a pie in the sky in this world.

Even his strategist Fox Shidou thought for a while that this Xiao Shizhu was really, just like the rumors, thinking that one out was one out, and his thinking jumped too fast.

Fox Shidou secretly thought that as far as Xiao Shizhu's thinking was concerned, he had to use it in the right place, and the opponent would never want to keep up with his plan, and never think about speculating on his thoughts.

It's a pity that looking at Xiao Shizhu, who is full of wine and slightly drunk, he doesn't look like a Mingjun no matter how he looks at it.

Fox Shidou sighed secretly, feeling that Xiao Shizhu was a pity.

Just when Fox Shidou was thinking like this, the Qingqiu Fox King also raised his wine jue, and happily agreed to Xiao Shizhu's request: "However, from today onwards, the Nine Shadows King is my eldest brother, and I recognize this brother of the opposite sex." ”。

As soon as the Qingqiu Fox King opened his golden mouth, Xiao Shizhu laughed heartily.

After the two ghosts drank a cup together, they solemnly swore an oath without hesitation and became brothers. In the future, the Nine Shadows Kingdom will never be an enemy of the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom.

Next, there was another bustle. Singing and dancing, the ghosts at the banquet drank wine and chatted, so it was not lively.

The excitement faded away before midnight, and the feast gradually dispersed.

Changqin sent Qingqiu Fox King and Hu Lan and other exotic guests out of the palace gate. And Xiao Shizhu was also supported by the ghost mother, staggered onto the car, and went in the direction of the inner palace.

Xiao Shizhu, who had just gotten into the car and sat firmly, carried Xuanli, and the smell of wine suddenly bubbled up on his body, and the smell of wine was diffused in the car. After a while, he no longer had the slightest drunken appearance.

Although it was warm in the car, the ghost mother still took the cloak from the car and put it on Xiao Shizhu to prevent him from catching the wind.

"Do you also think I'm crazy?" Xiao Shizhu, who was wearing a cloak, leaned forward slightly, stretched out his hands to the top of the stove in the car, slowly flipped, and baked his somewhat cold palms and backs: "In public, I made such a hasty oath that I would never be an enemy." ”。

When the ghost mother heard this, she shook her head silently a few times, and said softly: "I still remember that not long after we got married, you told me a story one night, saying that there was a man named Hitler in the world, and for some ulterior purposes, he also signed a non-aggression pact with a person named Stalin, and later Hitler also tore up the treaty and went to war with Stalin. The treaty between the two countries can be torn up in black and white, let alone this kind of verbal agreement? In my opinion, your move is just to reassure the fox. ”。

"Hehe, I'm afraid that today, only you and our daughter understand this. Xiao Shizhu thought about it, retracted his hand, leaned back on the chair, and closed his eyes slightly.

The ghost mother is right, Xiao Shizhu is this purpose. Verbal agreements don't mean anything. It's just a reassuring pill for the Qingqiu Fox King.

What's more, if the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom made a move, the Nine Shadows Kingdom would have no reason not to fight back.

Today, Xiao Shizhu and the Qingqiu Fox King are brothers, and after tomorrow, this news will gradually spread all over the ten continents and six seas. At that time, if the Qingqiu Fox King sends troops again to conquer the Nine Shadows Kingdom, it will be unkind and unjust.

Although other countries will not interfere in this matter, even if Xiao Shizhu fights back and destroys the Qingqiu Fox Country, other countries will only say that the Qingqiu Fox Country deserves it.

This is the purpose of Xiao Shizhu.

"Go to the Central Council. After a while, Xiao Shizhu said to Qing Lan, who was following in the car: "Go and call Lu Wu and them to the Central Council to discuss matters." ”......

Dongyingzhou, Yitian Mountain.

The last light rain of the rainy season also shrouded the surroundings of Yitian Mountain, within a radius of 100 miles.

Drizzling and fluttering.

In the rain and fog, even in the camp dozens of miles south of the mountain, the lights became hazy, and the camp tent was even more in the rain and fog, and only a silhouette could be vaguely seen.

The northwest of Dongyingzhou and the armies of all parts of the north jointly built an army, opened this place, and under the banner of crusading against the tyranny of the Nine Shadow Kingdom, they opened up here, preparing to continue to the south and attack the largest foothold of the Nine Shadow Kingdom in the East Ying Continent - Dushuo Mountain.

A million army camped here, the scale was huge, the company camp was dozens of miles, and the lights were bright.

If there were no dark clouds covering the top, the drizzle would fly, and the night sky above the entire radius of dozens of miles would be as bright as day.

Since the Battle of Shuoyue Island and the Southern Barbarians, the Nine Shadows Kingdom has never encountered so many enemy troops.

The menacing army, although it stopped outside the southern foot of the Yitian Mountain. But as soon as the day dawns, they will be ready to go, but by noon the army will continue south.

At that time, it will be a large group of men and horses that stretches for dozens of miles, winding forward and rushing straight to Dushuo Mountain.

At this moment, although it was the beginning of midnight, there was still a lot of noise in the big tent of the Chinese army of the coalition army.

Si You, who was elected as the leader of the alliance by the ghosts of the coalition forces, sat behind the handsome case, looking around at the other two dozen ghosts who were shouting noisily below.

This Si You is a human soul, with skin as white as snow, obviously a man's body, but he was born as beautiful as a woman.

The ghost country in charge is the northwestern ghost country of Dongying Continent.

Si You is also an extremely ancient ghost, once a ghost slave who went to the human world with the evil god, and returned to the netherworld after staying in the human world for a while.

Since then, he has been under the door of the Emperor Xudu and has been a low-level ghost servant. Later, because of the war, he once made military exploits for the Emperor Xudu to seize power, and was named the king of the underworld of Youguo, and his fief was in Dongyingzhou.

Don't look at this ghost, he is handsome, he is crepe, but he is as vicious as a demon, and he is ruthless in his past work. And the other leaders and generals of the coalition army, whether they are vicious or ruthless, are not as good as him, and their strategic vision is even less than this ghost; naturally he sits on the throne of this alliance leader.

In the future, he defeated the Nine Shadows Kingdom and was able to divide its land, and Si You also had the right of first refusal.

However, at this time, Si Yu is not thinking about the future, but about the present.

The biggest thing in front of us is who will attack the valley.

An hour ago, waiting for the report, five thousand people from the Nine Shadows Kingdom raided from the sea, attacked the Yanyi region, seized the key places in the valley, and killed the defenders of the fortresses in the valley, totaling more than 10,000 people.

And the entire valley has now been occupied by the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and the construction of fortifications has begun.

The Nine Shadows Army intends to defend in the danger of Yanyi, and it will not leave.

The area was of great importance, as it was the transportation support and route for the coalition forces after they moved south. It is the guarantee of forward operations.

Fortunately, waiting for the return, because the Nine Shadows Kingdom was a long-distance attack that skipped other cities, there were not many soldiers who came to attack this place, but about 5,000 to 8,000 people.

In this way, if the coalition forces want to recover this place, although they need to divide their troops to attack, they do not need to divide too many troops, so as not to commit a taboo.

And now, on the left and right in front of Si You, those leaders and generals who are arguing endlessly, are just for one thing, that is, who will lead the troops to fight the trenches.

The reason for the dispute is also because everyone wants to go.

It is a credit to lay down the trenches. And the distribution of benefits of the coalition forces after the war is precisely determined by merit.

So, everyone wants this credit.

Xiao Shizhu was also right, these coalition forces were harmonious on the surface, but in fact, once they encountered problems of interests, they would have their own ghosts.

It's much easier to deal with the coalition than to fight against the million-strong army.

Moreover, according to the battle plan of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, this coalition army has already begun to divide its troops.

Originally, it was a temporary army, and without tacit understanding, once such an army was divided, it would be difficult to coordinate again.

This is exactly the situation that Xiao Shizhu and King Yama want.

And just when the leaders and generals of the coalition forces were arguing endlessly, Si You, who was silent, already had a candidate to lead the troops.

He took a fancy to a general, but he didn't know how many troops to give to the other party for a while, and he was pondering.

Suddenly, a waiter entered the tent from outside the door, knelt down in front of the handsome case, and said: "Alliance leader, it has been confirmed that the soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom occupy the two mountains of Yanyi, but there are only 10,000 people. They have already begun to bury pots and cook food, judging from the amount of smoke and torches, it is only enough to burn food for 10,000 ghost soldiers and use it for 10,000 ghost soldiers. ”。

After hearing this, Si You did not give any more orders to probe again.

He also never believed that there were only 10,000 and nine secluded kingdoms in the Yanyi region, but Si Youding expected that there would definitely not be too many.

There was silence all around, and the noise and strife had disappeared from the moment they waited inside.

All the ghosts brushed together, fixed their eyes on Si You's face, and waited for him to give a military order.

"Before dawn, we have to take the land, which is one of our future transportation guarantees and routes, and it is very important. Si You, who had been silent for a moment, looked around at the ghosts, and said unhurriedly: "Once Yan Yi is under the control of the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, it is tantamount to hiding a sharp knife in the rear of our army. ”。

His voice was also very soft, and it seemed that the whole ghost was crepe.

However, analyzing the pros and cons, it is indeed in one sentence, and it is directly to the point.

"Therefore, we must not only repel the enemy, but also hold the enemy's idea of fighting the enemy in the future. After a pause, Si You added while turning the jade wrench in his hand.

This is his requirement for selecting generals, and he wants to choose a general who can fight well, and can fight both defensive and passive warfare.

And he already has the right person.

After saying this, Si You raised his eyes to look at the soul of the person who was wearing silver armor and covered in darkness closest to the tent door.

There was a glimmer of anticipation in his eyes.

"General Xuanmu of the Republic of China. Si You called the name of the ghost general, and the look of expectation in his eyes did not decrease but increased.

The armor sounded softly, and the ghost general stood up, faced Si You, and clenched his fists and said, "Yes." ”。

Si You immediately picked up a troop transfer token on the table.

These troop transfer tokens are all made temporarily, all made of bronze, with a circular periphery, and two tigers lying on their stomachs. Among the coalition forces, it is called the Tiger Order.

"The leader of this alliance will give you 80,000 troops, capture the Yanyi region before dawn, and defend it until the end of the war. Si You looked at this black-skinned ghost general named Xuanmu, and said slowly: "After the war, as long as the territory is still in the hands of the general, the vicinity and port of the territory will be handed over to the general's labor and the Republic of China. Other countries must not interfere or forcibly occupy an inch of land. ”。

This is a promise, and it is also a motivation, a motivation for the ghost general called Xuanmu to defend this place.

Si Youyu has a way, and it is not difficult to see from this matter. If he doesn't give a promise, Genmu will definitely go all out with all his heart.

But he gave this promise, and virtually the area of Nayi has been assigned to the Republic of Labor of Xuanmu. In the northwest area of the Yitian Mountains, the coastal 100 miles is the boundary of the Republic of Lao.

In this way, the Republic of Labor has also gained a foothold in the south of the Yitian Mountain. Xuanmu will definitely fight for this and go all out.

Invisibly, Si You also gave Xuanmu some encouragement and morale.

It's just that the army is divided at this point, and there are only 900,000 left in the million-strong army at once, which can continue to go south, which has drawbacks.

However, if Si You can capture the Yanyi region, this division of troops will be worth it, and the benefits will outweigh the disadvantages.

And Xuanmu's face like black ink didn't think much about it, strode forward, and in full view of everyone, he took the token without hesitation, and replied loudly: "The last general will take the order." ”。

At the same time, he bowed down and bowed to Si You.
