Chapter 289: The Western Regions City is defeated
Things have developed to this point, the Demon Venerable is helpless, and the Zijin King is even more upset, because Boiling Wing has spread rumors that Ziyang is not virtuous, so he was divorced.
It's a good trick to sow discord, making self-righteous people think that the Demon Venerable spread this news in order to protect Ming Qi.
Ming Qi was ordered to be grounded, Ziyang refused to say a word, and finally entered the room.
Public opinion continued to ferment and gradually lost control, and the Demon Venerable had no choice but to send Ming Qi to the front line as the main commander of the resistance to the Western Regions City. And the troops brought by Ming Qi turned out to be fierce beasts that he had raised for ten years.
The king of the Western Regions' attack on Dongyuan was instantly blocked, and on the battlefield, it was the first time that so many fierce beasts had fought, and the Western Regions City panicked.
The fierce beast has strong combat power, and it is not a problem to fight one against one hundred.
"The war has been defeated so far, hasn't the king woken up?" Mita, as a military advisor, did not approve of the king of the Western Regions being so reckless from the beginning.
"Wake up?" The king of the Western Regions was dressed in a military uniform, his left hand was pressed on the saber, his eyes widened angrily, and he said confidently: "Except for the waste southern frontier, my Western Regions City does occupy the smallest area, but Beibang is too busy to take care of himself, a Dongyuan, what is there to be afraid of! He is a big prince, and he hasn't brought a single soldier or a pawn. Those soldiers of Dongyuan are not so much looking down on our combat strength in the Western Regions, but rather they are not worried about the wolf cubs of Beibang! But this is also good, Dongyuan has clearly put an attitude of guarding against Beibang, and just asked us to use it. I don't believe it, the person who said that he believed in Demon Venerable and Ming Qi could be so stupid and not think about himself at all. β
"Ryoya has definitively rejected your proposal. Mita had to remind: "Besides, Ryoya's army was blocked by Siluo in the area of Qingmaru and Liuqi. Over the years, the battle between the Liangcheng Army and the Siluo Army for three days of fishing and two days of drying nets has been sparse, and in the case that no one can occupy the absolute initiative, it may not be said who will kill the deer. Even if you turn the gun now, join forces with the Liangcheng army to flank Siluo, and help Liang also win the station of Beibang, will Liang also take the Liangcheng army to attack Dongyuan with you? I don't think so. β
In the face of Sanda's frustrated remarks, the king of the Western Regions was already extremely irritable. "You are the military advisor of my Western Regions City, but you have been growing up here to destroy your own prestige. If you continue to behead the public with such false words, be careful that my military law will deal with you!"
Mita's face was calm, "Even if the king deals with me by military law, I will say! As the military advisor of the Western Regions King City, I will point out your mistakes bluntly! It is not too late to wake up, rather than being defeated like this, there is no possibility of turning over, so let's think about how to keep the Western Regions City." β
In the big tent, all the generals looked at the king of the Western Regions, waiting for him to make an idea, and the king of the Western Regions was silent for a long time before finally saying, "What do the generals think?"
Everyone looked at each other, but the three generals took one step at a time, "King, the only way to plan now is to negotiate peace." β
"Peace?"
"The fierce beasts brought by Ming Qi have never been put on the battlefield before, so we don't know how to deal with them at all. Those fierce beasts, even our generals can't fight, and letting the soldiers deal with them is a dead end. β
"So that's it
Go and wag your tail and beg for mercy, so that the Demon Venerable will spare us?"
"King, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood. We in the Western Regions do not have the capital to negotiate peace, so how can we wag our tails and beg for mercy. Negotiation of peace, it is on both sides, isn't our demon world also negotiating peace with the god realm, and it is the demon lord himself who represents the demon world. β
When the King of the Western Regions heard this, he became interested, "Then how are you going to negotiate peace?"
The third general clenched his fists slightly and said, "If the king can be trusted, of course I am willing to go to negotiate peace for our Western Regions City." And the conditions for peace, please ask the king to show them. β
The King of the Western Regions stepped on the throne and said with a playful smile: "Now that Ming Qi has the initiative on the battlefield, will he be willing to accept our conditions?"
"He'll take it. β
"Oh?"
"Ming Qi, unlike you, you are the king of the Western Regions, and if you want to go further, you can only meet with the Demon Capital. But Mingqi is the son of our Demon Realm, he will inherit the position of Demon Venerable sooner or later, and the turmoil in the Demon Realm is not what he wants. Moreover, the reason why the beasts have never been put into battle is because they are difficult to control, and after a long time, the beasts no longer obey the command, so as long as you are willing to return to the Western Regions City, he will definitely agree. β
Wang Yin of the Western Regions smiled: "You know Ming Qi very well. β
The third general smiled slightly, "To cooperate with him, of course, you must trust his conduct." It's only now that I'm completely loyal to you, that's why I'm so honest with you. β
The King of the Western Regions nodded slightly, "Okay, since that's the case, you can go and negotiate." It's just that you remember, I can return to Western Regions City, but the treatment I was given before is not less at all, and I don't want to bear anything that I shouldn't bear. β
Of course, the three generals knew that they were just sincerely embarrassing him, but as a defeated general under the king of the Western Regions, before he was completely trusted, what else could he do except let others slaughter him?
The three generals clenched their fists and took the order.
And in Ming Qi's military tent, there are no murderous generals, only Ming Qi is waiting for the three generals.
As soon as the three generals entered the military tent, they smiled bitterly: "I'm not a human being now, right?"
Ming Qi also said with a smile: "Fortunately, our uncle and nephew can meet again." β
The third general patted Ming Qi's shoulder forward, "The one who knows the times is Junjie, even if there is no correction from me, the second brother will use other reasons to attack Dongyuan." β
Ming Qi nodded, "I know." It's just that I'm curious, second uncle, why do you think I will agree to peace?"
"He didn't think you'd agree, I just thought so. β
Ming Qi laughed, "Compared with the second uncle, the third uncle knows me better." β
The third general laughed even more bitterly, but at this point, he had to bite the bullet and say, "Eldest nephew, can you withdraw from the army?"
The three generals were so straightforward, Ming Qi was not ambiguous, and nodded: "Yes." β
Ming Qi was so refreshing that the three generals didn't know how to talk about the conditions.
"The third uncle doesn't need to be bothered, I know the second uncle, he must want to return to the Western Regions safely without losing anything, that's why he asked you to negotiate peace, right?"
The third general nodded embarrassedly, "I lost in his hands, and if I am uprooted like the fifth brother, I have nothing to say." But now that I'm alive, I can't just live for myself, my family, my former subordinates, all count on me to live. Now that I am a fish and a man, I have nothing to say about how he embarrasses me. β
"I understand, so, you can go back and tell the second uncle, as long as he retreats to the Western Regions City and swears never to set foot in the Eastern Plains, how he was and how he will be in the future. β
"Swear not to step into Dongyuan for half a step? Mingqi, you don't think that if he swears, he will definitely be able to do it, right?"
Ming Qi shook his head, "Of course I know that the so-called oath is simply the most useless thing in the world. Even if it is written in black and white, it is a matter of an instant to tear it up, not to mention that when the upper lip touches the lower lip, I don't believe it. I needed a reason to quit, though. Third uncle, just tell the second uncle when you go back, he will agree. β
The three generals looked at Ming Qi, who had fully grown up, and regretted it in their hearts, if he hadn't been too aggressive, maybe one day in the future, he would really be able to take the throne of the king of the Western Regions with the support of Ming Qi.
"Mingqi, you have grown up, if your mother knows, she will be grateful. β
Ming Qi just smiled and nodded, and didn't say anything.
ββ
Ming Qi defeated the Western Regions Army without spending a single soldier, and when the news was transmitted back to the Demon Capital, everyone was stunned.
Boiling Wing naturally gave a thumbs up in the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons and praised Ming Qi's great achievements, but when he returned home, he smashed the ornaments on the table.
"Dad, why did this king of the Western Regions withdraw so easily?"
"Waste! I can't withstand a momentary failure, and I still want to attack Dongyuan?
"Dad, I heard that they don't seem to be united in the Western Regions City, and their military advisor has opposed the Western Regions King from the beginning. β
"Hmph, it's not enough to succeed and more to lose!" How could Boiling Wing not know that the King of the Western Regions was just a papier-mΓ’chΓ© tiger, not to mention unifying the Demon Realm, even if he fought against Dongyuan, he couldn't do it. It's just that he didn't expect any big moves from the King of the Western Regions, but he just dragged on until he united the leaders and set up a trap for the Purple Gold King to face him.
But before he could get out of the way, Ming Qi had already rushed to the front line, and he solved the king of the Western Regions by dividing it by two.
"Oh no!"
"Daddy?"
"Why was this Ming Qi suddenly sent to the front line? Demon Venerable hasn't given him a single soldier yet?"
"Doesn't he have an army of fierce beasts? those fierce beasts, but they are much more powerful than the army. β
Boiling Wing woke up suddenly, "Oops, fooled!"
"Dad, what do you think?"
"At first, I thought that the Demon Venerable would send me to fend off the Western Regions Army. But I have been calling myself sick, and I want the Zijin King to go, as long as I use my brain a little, I can let Ziyang marry you. But before I could make a move, the Demon Venerable sent Ming Qi to go, I thought that kid had never led troops, he went the same as the Zijin King, I just need to make use of it a little, Ziyang, it's still yours. But now that I think about it, Ming Qi was able to solve the King of the Western Regions so quickly, was it possible that the Demon Venerable had already calculated it?
Ming Qi has done so many ridiculous things recently, did the Demon Venerable want to find an excuse to send Ming Qi to the front line under my nose? Thinking about it further, Ming Qi and Ziyang quarreled at the beginning, wasn't it, from the very beginning, they calculated it?"
Boiling gasped, "Won't it?"
"That old fox is really very good. β
"Daddy. He said in a trembling voice: "If this is the case, I am now completely exposed in front of Ming Qi, and now many people know that I have revealed my heart to Ziyang." β
Boiling Yi felt that this matter was not simple, and he was most afraid that all this was the calculation of the Demon Venerable.
"Now that it's exposed, there's nothing to hide. Since you haven't been able to force Ziyang to commit herself to you for the safety of his father or Ming Qi, then now, it's better to ask for a kiss openly. β
"Dad, isn't that good?"
"What's wrong? Ziyang has been divorced, isn't it appropriate for the son of a general of yours to ask for a general's daughter?"
