It is common sense to think about defeat before you win.

Although it is also a way to boost morale, it should not be used often, and in fact, the more prepared you are, the higher your chances of winning the battle.

Jiang Ming and Yun Xuan only considered the possibility of victory, so they formulated such a plan, but as a military advisor, he couldn't help but consider the possibility of defeat.

At this time, the staff member who had formulated the strategy of moving mountains before echoed: "That's right, we don't know anything about the strength of Liulidong, even if we have the hope of victory, we can't help but consider the possibility of defeat, build a Xiongguan here, use it as a bridgehead for attack when attacking, and use it as our own back road when defeated, so as not to defeat like a mountain." ”

Although it was a bit unlucky to talk about defeat, everyone didn't care about this little thing, they were discussing a major event that would determine the future of the human world.

Ling Xiyue got up and said, "In that case, let's repair the book to Middle Earth, tell them our plans, and let them do it conveniently." ”

Ling Xiyue spoke, and the general matter of this matter was decided, only the details remained, but it had nothing to do with them.

The specific design of the road was the responsibility of the Qishi Prefecture, and the implementation was the responsibility of the logistics troops.

Middle-earth's reply came quickly, and it only took seven days to reply to their thoughts: [Put the removed mountain peaks at the junction, and the departure place and checkpoint are in their own responsibility, but after the departure, Middle-earth and Dongzhou will each be responsible for a part and march into Liulidong together. 】

"It's worthy of Middle-earth, it's worry-free. Ling Xiyue praised with a smile.

Zhongtu not only agreed to their plan, but also built roads with them, anyway, the place they were jointly responsible for was in the territory of Southern Xinjiang, which was not ashamed, but the decision to send troops together made Ling Xiyue feel very pleased.

The military advisor said: "I think they are not at ease with us, otherwise why would they propose to put the removed peaks at the junction?"

Ling Xiyue didn't care and said, "Don't worry if he doesn't have to! Anyway, as long as Zhongtu is willing to attack the Liuli Cave in Southern Xinjiang with us, it's fine." ”

Jiang Ming suddenly said in a deep voice: "This may not be. ”

Ling Xiyue was a little puzzled: "Don't you still believe in the people of Middle-earth?"

In her understanding, Jiang Ming should trust Middle-earth like her, at least they will agree on the same opinion when dealing with Southern Xinjiang together.

Jiang Ming's fingers tapped rhythmically on the table, and said, "Actually, we trust Middle-earth because of their spirit of sacrifice that is not afraid of death, but what will happen if their spirit of sacrifice is not cultivated by themselves, but forcibly instilled?"

Ling Xiyue was stunned,

Jiang Ming had already mentioned this matter to her last time, but she didn't take it to heart, not because her heart was too big, but because this matter was impossible to guard against!

They and Middle-earth are not a family in the first place, and they have not reached the point where they can be entrusted with their backs, they can just unite and trust each other in the face of a common enemy, so how did their spirit of sacrifice come about, and what does it matter?

But now they can't afford not to be on guard.

"Instilling spiritual will, is it possible to do this kind of thing?" Yun Xuan was a little stunned.

Originally, he had been listening and didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing, but since this kind of thing was mentioned, of course he couldn't ignore it.

Jiang Ming said: "There's nothing strange about this, before the Demon Realm creatures appeared in this world, would you believe that such creatures would exist in this world?

Speaking of this, Jiang Ming was also a little chilled in his heart.

Originally, he would cite these two examples to facilitate the understanding of Yun Exhaustion, but after the examples, he also discovered the problem himself.

If his speculation is true, then the methods of Middle-earth and Southern Xinjiang are somewhat similar.

So, is Middle-earth friend or foe?

The military advisor seemed to see Jiang Ming's hesitation, and said: "The minister thinks that the affairs of Middle Earth do not need to worry too much before solving the problem of Liulidong in southern Xinjiang, first of all, we have a common enemy. Secondly, these changes in Middle-earth are minimal, although the impact is very far-reaching, but the changes made are not big, even if they instill more faith in loyalty to Middle-earth during ordinary training, it can be done, and it is not worth mentioning compared to the mysterious will in Southern Xinjiang. ”

Yun Xuan said: "Although I have not seen the changes you are talking about with my own eyes, but I know that these changes are first because I want to gain something, so that I will lose something, it can be said that it is with some fraudulent equivalent exchange, if the changes in Middle-earth are not big, then the problem should not be too big." ”

Jiang Ming nodded when he heard this, if it is really an equivalent exchange, then the impact on Middle Earth should not be too great, and whether it will turn against him in the future is not to say, at present, it is okay to be able to deal with Southern Xinjiang together.

Over the next month, the Qishi Mansion began to move westward, deliberating with the people of Middle-earth on how to open up a path, but it was too difficult to agree on one after another, so the two sides gathered directly together and let them quarrel enough.

Whether it is the planning of roads, the selection of materials, or the establishment of intermediate outposts, and the problem of logistical supply, this is not a trivial matter, and everything needs to be carefully considered by them.

When this person quarrels with red faces, stop

But Gohou suddenly sent an envoy.

Ling Xiyue felt a little strange about this, Zhi Gehou had been developing silently by himself, except for resisting the Northern Plains, he was not involved in anything, but now he suddenly sent an envoy to them, I don't know what the plan is.

However, whether it was out of etiquette or the relationship with Zhi Gehou, she had to meet her.

The envoy of the Hou of Zhige respectfully saluted Ling Xiyue and said, "Lord Shengwu Hou, Lord Hou sent me here for the affairs of the Northern Plains. ”

Ling Xiyue was a little worried: "Is there something that happened in the Northern Plains, is there a big invasion?"

The envoy shook his head and said: "It is a large number of Xizhou people who have appeared in the Northern Plains, they have crossed the Hengduan Mountain Range and come to the Northern Plains to develop their own forces, and many women have become the forbidden descendants of some strong people in the Northern Plains by virtue of their own appearance, the specific purpose is not understood, but it is speculated that they want to use this to control the Northern Plains." ”

A staff member sneered: "The people of Beiyuan are full of wolf nature, how can they be controlled by the people of Xizhou? Some of them do like to use women to show their status, but there are not many people who are really confused by women, but many forces with ulterior motives will put the women of their own family into it for nothing." ”

The people of Beiyuan have a wild personality, and there is no barrier between them and Dongzhou, so I don't know how many people want to plot against Beiyuan, but they are all in vain, if you obediently listen to them, you may be able to get some benefits, but if you want to get more from them, then there is only a dead end.

Ling Xiyue stopped the staff's next words and said, "You don't know Xizhou's methods, so I don't blame you, but don't speak again." ”

The staff immediately shut up when they heard this.

The news that Ling Xiyue found out from Xizhou was not widely spread, but only circulated at the top level, so it was normal for him not to know, but if he was not interested in it, it would be stupid for him.

The envoy said: "Since Lord Shengwuhou already knows the means of Xizhou, then the next words are simple, the subordinates came this time to borrow people from Lord Shengwuhou, although Lord Hou's martial arts cultivator corps is outstanding, but it is in vain to have soldiers and no generals, after all, Xizhou also has the same means to deal with the cultivation of demon Dao exercises as Nanjiang......"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Jiang Ming: "I already know your intentions, now, do you have any last words?"

The envoy's face changed, and he said: "I am the messenger of Zhigehou, and I represent the face of Zhigehou......"

"Since you refuse to tell the truth, then use the torture directly! You dare to pretend to be the envoy of Zhige Hou, you are really bold!" Jiang Ming said directly.
