Chapter 332: Not My Race
At Wangxi's request, the monkey slowed down his march and swayed all the way. Arrived twelve hours later than originally expected.
For a full twelve hours, the monkey nervously mobilized the troops behind him remotely, and on the other hand, he quietly waited for news from the demon capital, or from the multi-eyed monster.
However, no, nothing. As soon as Wangxi left, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no news.
However, the monkeys are not in a hurry. Anyway, he has been asked to slow down, and listening to the meaning of Wangxi, the multi-eyed monster is not ready for this battle to let the new army be the main force, so just let the fleet open its defensive formation and walk slowly.
When entering the territory of the Peng Demon King, the monkey found that the entire territory had undergone earth-shaking changes.
It's devastated, but it's not the devastation of war, it looks more like it's been looted. One abandoned stronghold after another.
In order to avoid being ambushed, the monkey simply lowered the speed of the voyage again and sent people down to investigate. As a result, there was really no one in these strongholds.
"It's supposed to shrink the defense. Yanxi said.
Lowering his head, the monkey reached out and touched the charcoal in the stove. There is also residual temperature.
"Just left. If we don't slow down, we're really going to hit them. Gotta fight. ”
However, then again, how did they negotiate with the Peng Demon King?
The monkey thought.
......
Bird Mountain.
In the main hall, Wangxi held the hilt of the sword with one hand and stood quietly in the middle.
On both sides, there were two groups of demon generals armed to the teeth, all fierce and vicious.
But the throne was empty.
......
Apse.
"Your Highness the Demon King, do you want to go back on it?" asked Zhu Gangguan coldly.
The Peng Demon King smiled awkwardly, wiped his sweat, and said with a flickering gaze: "The envoy also heard it, the conditions offered by the multi-eyed prime minister of the demon capital are indeed good. You can pardon my sins, and you can keep the title of this king, and even the right to war. As long as this king confesses his mistake to the one in the Moyu Imperial City, it's fine. ”
"And then, do you want to regret it?" Pig Gangguan's eyes slowly narrowed into a slit, and he quietly stared at the Peng Demon King.
"Also...... Not a reversal. But if you change the envoy and put yourself in the king's shoes, won't you be moved?"
"So what?"
"Just ......" Peng Demon King touched his chin, so he said in embarrassment: "This king is a man of his word. It's just that this king thinks that the conditions we talked about earlier should be revised to some more detailed rules?"
Zhu Gangguan sneered: "Demon King, with your understanding of your multi-eyed prime minister, this matter is an apology, can it be solved by admitting mistakes?"
"But after all, he said it, dignified prime minister, is it possible that he can still not talk about any credibility at all?" Peng Demon King asked with a frown.
The pig was about to be fried. Holding his breath, he still had to endure it, and said with a smile: "Then, Demon King, what rules do you want to change?"
Raising his head, the Peng Demon King pretended to ponder and said, "See if you can do this." I've contracted my defenses, and in this way, a passage has been vacated. A ...... A passage to the hinterland of the Demon Kingdom. Prime Minister Duomu has already sent his junior sister over as an envoy, which can be regarded as a bit sincere. Why don't you show me your sincerity and drive the troops directly into the hinterland of the Demon Kingdom?"
With that, his eyes widened and he looked at Pig Gang with a grin.
Zhu Gangguan's eyes also widened, but instead of laughing, his face turned blue.
......
Time passed bit by bit.
Standing in the main hall, Wangxi always kept smiling, his eyes widened, but the sweat on his forehead slipped down drop by drop.
In his ears, the words of the multi-eyed monster repeatedly surrounded: "No matter what conditions he prescribes, you will agree." Just boast about Haikou. Your task is to find a way to hold him back and make him believe in you. As for what to do after that...... As long as there is no decree, everything is fake and can be overturned at any time. ”
......
The door opened, and the Peng Demon King walked out with joy in his heart.
The pig who was left alone in the apse was so angry that he slammed his face on the table, and his fingers were slightly forced.
Dai Tiande on the side was stunned.
Gritting his teeth, Zhu Gang said angrily: "With his brain, how did he become the demon king? Can he still be in office for so long? Can't he see that the multi-eyed old monster is stalling for time?"
Maybe he saw it. Dai Tiande whispered: "He just wants to take the opportunity to negotiate better terms from our side." ”
"Better conditions? It's all about to be in trouble, what better conditions can we talk about? Lives are almost unsaved, is there a difference between a few more ships of supplies and a few fewer ships......?" How did he come up with it? Do we trust each other so much with him? This kind of thing is that I kicked the donkey in my brain and promised him, could it be that Marshal Tianfu and Li Tianwang don't have eyes yet? Obviously, we came to save him, and he asked us. It turned out as if we were asking for him. ”
"Probably...... He can see that Brother Gangguan wants to make meritorious contributions. ”
"Do I really look so earnest?"
"It's a little ......," Dai replied in a low voice.
After a little relief, Zhu Gangguan sighed softly: "It seems that I was really too anxious to let him grab the bargaining chips that he was coercing." However, the short-sightedness of this Peng Demon King is really jaw-dropping. ”
At this point, Zhu Gangguan was stunned again, his eyes slowly narrowed into a slit, and after a while, he took a sip of tea, laughed, and sighed lightly: "I see......"
"What's wrong?" asked Dai Tiande.
"We may have thought wrong. He's not stupid, but wants us to think he's stupid. Zhu Gangguan said lightly: "This Peng Demon King actually wants to hold the initiative firmly in his own hands." You think, we are now preparing to form an alliance with the Owl Marching Army, and then work together to deal with the other forces of the Demon Kingdom. Being able to win is the most important thing we think. In fact, we now have the advantage. But the Peng Demon King didn't necessarily want this result. After all, the fairy demon fought against ten thousand years, no matter what, the Peng Demon King should not think that after we win, he will have any good fruit to eat, right?"
"The reason why we want to ally with him is because he is useful to us. If we have already won, then he is useless. For us, what is the difference between the Owl Marching Army and other demon armies? So, what this guy is thinking about now is probably how to weaken our advantage. ”
"Before the war started, you were already thinking about weakening the advantages of the alliance, this is too lacking in virtue, right?" Dai Tiande was shocked.
"Or else?" said Pig Gangguan with a smile, "If it is not of my race, its heart will be different." Fornication for the sake of interests, interests do not exist, and naturally they fall apart. ”
"So what do we do now?"
Pig Gang smiled and didn't speak.
......
When I saw Bird Mountain from afar, there were also the troops of the Bull Demon King, the Lion Camel King, and the Jiao Demon King at the same time. Their vanguard arrived earlier than the monkey's new army. A vast expanse, suspended in the sky, looked like a swarm of locusts from a distance.
The entire Bird Mountain has entered the white-hot stage of preparing for war, and around the mountain, the overwhelming Yu Clan soldiers are flying, and they are still rushing to repair various defensive buildings. A large number of warships have already taken to the air and are in a posture to meet the battle. In terms of numbers, it really scared the monkeys.
"He really hid a lot of people quietly......"
At a cursory glance, the monkey roughly estimated that the military strength of the marching army was at least 700,000. This number is more than half of the troops under the command of the Bull Demon King known to the monkey, and even the entire strength of the Bull Demon Army and the Red Dragon Army combined is about this number. What's more, it is only the vanguard that has arrived now, and the strength of the marching army present is more than twice as large as that of the other three armies, plus their own new army.
It's no wonder that the multi-eyed monster is trying to gain time. Although the Heavenly Court is far away, the army has not even seen a shadow yet. But before the arrival of the follow-up troops of the various armies, there was no possibility of eating Bird Mountain in one go. The multi-eyed monster asked himself not to run so fast, and he was even more afraid that he would be eaten by the Peng Demon King in turn.
After a moment of silence, the monkey muttered to himself: "If the Owl Marching Army has this power, cooperating with Heavenly Court will not be regarded as seeking skin with the tiger." It's just that how to get enough military spending is indeed a big problem. Soldiers are easy to recruit, but not easy to raise. Let's set up a line, a little bit back. ”
"No!"
"Camp?" asked Yanxi.
"Don't ......," the monkey replied helplessly, "Don't you find that they don't camp now?" ”
