On the towering city wall, the guards in charge were full of vigilance. An endless stream of night watchmen kept patrolling the surrounding area of ??the city, daring not to slack off in the slightest.
Since seven years ago.
Under Xuanyuan Hong¡¯s insistence, the Daxia royal family officially declared war on the princes in the major fortress cities.
Fengdu never relaxed for a moment. It not only refused the entry of foreign tourists, but also closed most of the entertainment venues in the city.
So much so.
This once world-famous city that never sleeps no longer has the liveliness and prosperity of the past. Instead, it is lifeless and once became extremely depressed.
"You bastard, you're such a waste!"
The depth is in a secret room within a hundred meters underground.
In front of all the senior officials of Fengdu, the furious Chen Jingshan threw the documents in his hand to the ground.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
There was silence in the whole room, and almost no one dared to confront this big shot in front of him who was already a powerful figure in Fengdu.
"The entire 15,000-strong Night Watch Army was actually scared off by a mere divine martial body. Jia Qing was even captured alive by the enemy. This is a complete loss of face for our Fengdu!"
Veins popped up on his forehead.
Today, Chen Jingshan is already over seventy years old, and the white hair on his temples is clearly visible.
Yan Ye, the lord of Fengdu City, announced his retirement three years ago. Although he still occupies the position of city lord, in fact, the power of the entire fortress city has been handed over to Chen Jingshan.
Currently in Fengdu, the Chen family is the supreme being, and no one dares to disobey their wishes.
"Speak, why are you mute?!"
He raised his head and scanned the people in front of him fiercely.
Chen Jingshan couldn't help but gnashed his teeth and shouted in a deep voice: "Who said that Longdu was now weak and suggested that I send troops to station in the territory? Who is advocating that when the royal family is under pressure, we can seize the foundation of Longdu in one fell swoop? How about achieving the undefeated status of the number one prince in the hinterland of Daxia?!"
"You trash, what are you talking about?!"
The tone was full of violence and madness.
In recent years, as the power in his hands continues to grow, Chen Jingshan¡¯s temperament has become increasingly arbitrary.
The merit is due to his good leadership.
As for the past, it was the incompetence and failure of the losers under me
Over time.
Nearly everyone has a grudge against him, but most people dare not speak out.
"Minister Chen, victory or defeat is a common occurrence for military strategists."
A man in a white robe walked out alone, bowed respectfully to Chen Jingshan, who was in a high position, and said: "The matter is now at this point, and it will be useless to discuss who came up with the idea in the first place. It will only make things worse." It becomes more complex and difficult to deal with"
There was a pause.
The man in white robe sighed softly and continued: "The plan for now is to make amends as soon as possible, and we must minimize the losses in Fengdu!"
"Wei Yuanqing, why is it you again?!"
He raised his eyebrows.
Chen Jingshan narrowed his eyes, and then he remembered that the person who proposed this strategy was the man in white robe in front of him.
"Okay, then you can tell me what to do next?!"
He brushed his sleeves.
The Wei Yuanqing in front of him was handsome and looked like he was only in his thirties. He quickly lowered his head and suggested: "I have two suggestions!"
"First, order the remaining troops stationed in Longdu to return to Fengdu. Of course, before leaving, all resources in the satellite town must be taken away, including materials, energy and even population"
He raised his head and glanced at Chen Jingshan.
Wei Yuanqing's eyes were deep and he continued: "In short, take away as much as you can, and burn everything you can't take away. You must not leave any resources or benefits for other forces to use!"
Vicious and spicy, no room left.
Get the maximum benefit from failure, and destroy it completely if you don't get it!
Everyone present was silent, but they all felt that although this proposal was wonderful, it was really harmful to Tianhe.
Hear the words.
Chen Jingshan¡¯s expression softened a bit, he lowered his eyelids and nodded, ¡°Keep talking!¡±
"Second, send an envoy to Longdu and actively seek peace!"
As soon as these words came out.
The whole place was in an uproar almost instantly??
Everyone looked at Chen Jingshan, who was sitting alone in a high position, wanting to see how the big boss would react after hearing this.
"Haha, ask for peace?!"
as expected.
I saw Chen Jingshan smile coldly, and wisps of earthy yellow sand mist suddenly rose up all around him, and it was about to explode on the spot.
"Are you kidding me? That boy from the Hu family is so virtuous and capable. Why should I, Chen Jingshan, beg for mercy?"
"Minister Chen, you are wrong!"
Secretly gritting his teeth, he endured the oncoming sandstorm.
Wei Yuanqing¡¯s eyes were as bright as fire and he said in a deep voice: ¡°The person we want to seek peace with is not Hu Kui, the Lord of Longdu City, but the divine warrior in the city¡ªXue Yun!¡±
??Slightly startled.
Chen Jingshan¡¯s hands suddenly rested on the table, and the wind and sand behind him suddenly stopped at this moment.
How could he not know that Xue Yun was so powerful? !
More than ten years ago, the opponent was able to escape from his grasp. Not only did he escape unscathed, but he also resisted the invasion of the monster beasts alone and became a guest of the entire Fengdu.
Originally, everyone thought this guy died on the northern border.
Who would have thought that the other party would come back so strongly at this juncture that his plan would be completely ruined. Not only would he lose his wife and troops, but it would also put Fengdu in a dilemma.
Such a tyrannical existence really makes people have to pay attention,
"The so-called peace is nothing more than an expedient measure."
Narrowing your eyes.
Wei Yuanqing took a step forward and said loudly: "Longdu, who has a divine martial body, is no longer a suitable prey. For the sake of the overall situation, and also for Fengdu to survive in troubled times, we might as well take the initiative to seek peace." , so that Xue Yun will no longer regard us as imaginary enemies, at least the two sides will not immediately fall out."
The Great Xia Empire was in civil strife for several years.
The major forces and princes have been fighting overtly and covertly for a long time. The idea of ??joining forces is nothing new. Everyone is accumulating strength and making relevant preparations for a decisive battle one day in the future.
The distance between Longdu and Fengdu is really too close.
As the saying goes, the snipe and the clam compete for the fisherman's profit.
If both sides fight together, they will probably pay an extremely heavy price, and it will also bring opportunities for other forces to take advantage of.
"Besides, my subordinates have another plan!"
Wei Yuanqing grinned and suggested loudly: "Since we are asking for peace, why not make the matter more serious? We might as well ask the envoy to hand over Minister Chen's handwritten letter with both hands, saying that we intend to treat the Hu family of Longdu as honored guests." , at the vassal alliance meeting next month, we are determined to elect them to become the leaders of the major vassals, and we are willing to obey the Hu family's orders from now on!"
