Chapter 724 Heading to the East
In the court hall of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the atmosphere began to be weird.
Officials directly under the Western Zhou Dynasty expressed that peace talks should be made. This matter has nothing to do with us from the beginning to the end, and our losses have been heavy enough. Sixty percent of the empire's god-forming stage has died! It's heartbreaking now. If the fight continues, the country will be gone.
So, no more calls!
But those officials controlled by the twelve families all said: We must fight to the end! The enemy must have been exhausted. Maybe we just need to hang on.
Not to mention, a large number of masters of the god transformation stage in the Eastern Morning Earth Continent are about to arrive. Although the legion could not pass through the sea blockade, the masters came over. After two months of preparation, Morning Earth Continent supported a total of 100,000 God Transformation Stages!
One hundred thousand, the stage of transforming gods!
This number is enough!
Beside them, the representatives of the Twelve Families looked ugly and stern. The Western Zhou Dynasty wanted peace talks? What is this for, is it to take the opportunity to get out of control?
The words of the prime minister were secretly ordered by the emperor, right?
Zhuge Shao's expression was even more stern. You said that we are fighting now. If you negotiate peace with the Western Zhou Dynasty, then Dayang Group will be the next one to deal with us.
To be honest, the Qinglong family was a little shocked when the war came to this point.
Just as Zhuge Shao was thinking, he heard Taiwei Mu Minghe chuckle: "How much is a hundred thousand transformation gods? Also, if it was ten years ago, a hundred thousand transformation gods would be enough to control the whole world. But now, it's no longer possible.
According to our statistics, in the past two months, the Dayang Group alone has recruited 10,000 baby peaks from the local area, and trained them into the stage of transformation into gods.
In addition, West Kunlun and the strategic alliance that West Kunlun is in have recruited and surrendered a total of thousands of people in the real stage of transformation, that is, those casual cultivators, family representatives, and small sect leaders. As for the Nascent Soul stage of recruiting and surrendering, I am afraid that it will exceed 200,000.
Among them, at least 30,000 people have been trained to become gods.
Then there is the Liang Dynasty in the east and the so-called strategic alliance. The number of surrendered and newly cultivated gods is no less than 50,000.
Coupled with the original God Transformation Stage of the Western Invading Army, the total number of God Transformation Stages of the invading army now is about 150,000, or even more!
In fact, the war has been fought until now, and almost all the gods are fighting for the front. Ordinary soldiers are only consolidating the occupied areas. "
The Great Emperor sighed slightly and rubbed his brows. The current state of war is unbelievable. The war has been fought until now, and the battlefield is actually full of gods.
Also, all kinds of crazy military weapons also appeared one after another. Dayang Group has the second-generation thunder cannon and metal giant (mecha); the rest of the Holy Land and so on are not to be outdone, they have built even more crazy armored vehicles, ballistas and so on.
The Western Legion, which has a technological advantage, is constantly increasing its advantages. In contrast, the situation in the East has become more and more rotten.
The Twelve Families have not used their core methods until now. Obviously, the Twelve Families also wanted to take the opportunity to weaken the empires.
The emperors of the Western Zhou Dynasty certainly understood the problems. What is before him now is a very difficult choice.
If you continue to fight, you will inevitably suffer heavy losses; the strength of the Western Allied Forces is beyond imagination. And if the battle continues like this, once the power accumulated by the Western Zhou Dynasty in the past hundred years is exhausted, it will be difficult to get rid of the control of the Twelve Families.
But if they choose peace talks, they will definitely offend the Twelve Families. In the event that the Western Allied Forces pat their butts away, or even lose the battle, the Twelve Clans will definitely settle their scores. The twelve families are familiar with cleaning the royal family!
And at this time, the great emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty resented the Dayang Group again—why did you come to attack Haojing? Didn't you declare war on the Qinglong family?
Starting from Longzhiye, the distance to Haojing is almost the same as the distance to Wolong Mountain of the Qinglong family. As a result, the Dayang Group's attack direction came straight to Haojing, without any turns along the way!
The court discussed for a long time, but finally failed to reach any opinions.
At this time, one of the three lords, Doctor Yu Shi, and Shi Quanhai said: "Why don't we resist? We have lost too much now, and the soldiers don't want to fight; once we fight, the consequences will be disastrous. But if we surrender directly, we may Damage the reputation of His Majesty.
Therefore, the minister suggested that we might as well inform Dayang Group that we welcome them to be our guests. As a show of good faith, we will remove all surrounding troops.
I think with Dayang Group's performance along the way, they should not do too much. "
Hearing Shi Quanhai's words, the emperor's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but nodded slightly.
There are many things that Dayang Group is commendable for (calling) along the way. For example, the Dayang Group did fight over aboveboard; there were military strategies, but they definitely did not have those cunning and treacherous methods.
Also, an important reason for the failure of the Twelve Families' strategy was that after the Dayang Group directly intervened in the war, it dissuaded the coalition forces from looting and instead actively cooperated with local forces. This is the current situation.
It's just that the Emperor still can't figure out why the Dayang Group's attack went straight to Haojing?
However, this does not prevent the Great Emperor from making a decision of 'non-resistance' now.
Beside, the representatives of the Twelve Families, especially Zhuge Shao of the Qinglong Clan, looked so gloomy that they could drip water! Although the emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty did not negotiate peace with the Dayang Group, it was obvious that he was also at the last moment.
But the emperor looked at the representatives of the twelve families with dissatisfaction. It's about time, where are your reinforcements? Why, you are all out of the chain, it's okay for us to be lazy!
Hmph, as long as we give up resistance, Dayang Group has no reason to massacre the city, etc.; in this way, the royal family and official system of the Western Zhou Dynasty can be preserved, and the notification of the Western Zhou Dynasty will also be preserved. And Dayang Group should not kill them all, because that obviously does not conform to Dayang Group's performance along the way.
The meeting was dispersed, and the emperor immediately sent an envoy to go straight three hundred kilometers away with his own letter, and delivered the letter to Murong Shan in person. Then, he waited for Murong Shan to respond.
When Murong Shan received this letter, he was also stunned. I was ready to attack the city in an all-round way, but people wanted to open the gates of the city to welcome them and reward the army!
You're honest, I'm not even good at it.
However, Murong Shan couldn't decide on such an important matter, so he asked Zhang Hao via telegram.
After a while Zhang Hao responded: Temporarily stationed to consolidate the occupied area, so as to ensure that the rear is safe; in the next few days, I will go to the east in person.
Mr. Zhang wants to come here in person?
Murong Shan froze for a moment. He thought for a while, then nodded slowly. He can probably understand Zhang Hao's decision. That's right, when the war has come to this point, Zhang Hao needs to come forward to determine his influence and international status!
When Zhang Hao comes over, there will be a meeting between Wang and Wang. The 'king' Zhang Hao wants to meet is not the emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty, but the head of the Qinglong family!
This meeting will be a battle for world supremacy!
Zhang Hao needs to come and take over this honor in person, and no one can replace it.
But on the other hand, Murong Shan also understood Zhang Hao's entrustment-the next will be a duel between the king and the king, and the stability of the rear is very important. Maybe if you are not careful, a decisive battle will break out in hundreds of thousands of gods. That was absolutely heaven-shattering.
Before the real decisive battle comes, everything needs to be sorted out!
However, the news that Zhang Hao is coming over cannot be made public for the time being. Murong Shan thought for a while, and wrote back to the emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty: Since the emperor is so sincere, we will not be disrespectful; we will not go to the city to disturb, please ask your majesty to send over the supplies for the army!
The envoy took the letter but did not leave. Instead, he asked Murong Shan's personal soldiers: Didn't you declare war on the Qinglong family? Why attack Ho Kyung? Where did we go wrong?
Murong Shan chuckled lightly after hearing what the soldiers told him, "Go and tell him that if the Western Zhou Dynasty is willing to sign a peace agreement, we will let the Western Zhou Dynasty go. Otherwise, we will clear the field before the final battle!"
Yes, we are just to clear the field - this is Murong Shan's reply to the Great Emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty.
But in fact, there are deeper considerations for attacking Haojing. For example, the attack of the Dayang Group directly led to a rift between the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Twelve Families.
Haojing is different from the headquarters of the Twelve Families, and the defense here is obviously not as good. If the Dayang Group attacked Haojing, if the Twelve Families came to rescue, they would suffer heavy losses; if they didn't come, that would be even better, as this would widen the rift between the Twelve Families and the native country.
The Dayang Group attacked Haojing, but also tortured the Qinglong family from a spiritual level: Do you save or not!
There is a saying in the art of war: attacking the heart is the first!
And when Murong Shan attacked Hao Jing, he was attacking the Qinglong family's 'heart'!
In the evening, the Dayang Group and the Western Allied Forces began to station on the spot and began to build camps; it seemed to indicate that they would no longer advance. The Western Zhou Dynasty also sent Prime Minister Chao Hanwen to reward the army with a large amount of supplies.
The supplies include basic supplies such as food, chickens, pigs, cattle and sheep, fine wine, spirit stones, etc. The quantity is very large, which is almost 10% of Haojing's reserves.
Murong Shan personally received Chao Hanwen and received the supplies. Of course, Murong Shan's subordinates will naturally verify whether the materials are poisonous or not.
And Murong Shan was in the camp, hosting a banquet for Chao Hanwen.
Chao Hanwen was accompanied by a person who seemed unwilling to let Chao Hanwen go. Murong Shan understood at a glance that this was supervised by the Twelve Families.
But this is the tent of Dayang Group, and the eyes of the Twelve Family are not good. Murong Shan sneered: "Go out! The master is talking, what are you doing here!"
"you……"
Immediately next to him were two masters of the late Huashen stage from the Dayang Group sneering, one on each side, grabbed the guy's arm and dragged him out.
When the man was about to leave, he shouted: "Prime Minister, staying here for dinner is beyond the rights His Majesty gave you!"
But Murong Shan snorted: "Go back and tell your majesty that the prime minister has been detained by me. After verifying that all the materials are ok, I will naturally put them back!"
Chao Hanwen stayed here at Murong Mountain for more than two hours, and left with his escort team two hours later. However, they did not go back completely empty-handed, and there were more than 10,000 prisoners. This is a prisoner of the Western Zhou Dynasty who was defeated and captured before, and most of the people who were released were nobles.
After returning, Chao Hanwen faced the question of the emperor (there were people from the twelve families nearby), and said: In order to thank His Majesty for his hospitality, Murong Shan said that he would release some of the prisoners; I have been talking about the prisoners for these two hours.
The representatives of the Twelve Families frowned as they looked at the crowd of released captives outside the hall. Everyone obviously wouldn't believe that Chao Hanwen didn't talk about anything else. But if Chao Hanwen didn't say anything, everyone couldn't torture him.
For five consecutive days after that, the Dayang Group and the coalition forces did not make any progress. Instead, they built a garrison defense fortress.
The Qinglong family and Zhuge Shao have also stabilized. The one hundred thousand transformation gods from the Morning Earth Continent have all arrived, and they are now living in the Qinglong family and the towns around Wolong Mountain.
The Qinglong family is now fully preparing for the battle, and the clan elders in the family have been awakened one after another. Some of these clan elders are 800 or even 900 years old. Their cultivation may not have broken through to the Dharma, but they have reached the stage of becoming a god. These people are the confidence of the twelve families.
In fact, in the eyes of many people, this kind of God Transformation Dzogchen is already a master in the realm of Faxiang—this is the master who surpassed God Transformation in the past.
But the Qinglong family saw that the Dayang Group hadn't moved for five days, so they couldn't figure out what the Dayang Group was going to do for a while. To be honest, the fighting for more than two months has made everyone feel an inexplicable vigilance and even an indescribable fear of the Dayang Group!
Just as the representatives of the twelve families were thinking, a group of airships from the west fell into the camp of Dayang Group.
Murong Shan led a large number of Huashen masters, and even generals of the strategic alliance, to welcome them.
Under the protection of Fu Yun and other experts, Zhang Hao slowly got off the flying boat.
"This is Zhang Hao!" Han Yanqiu, the guardian of the North of West Kunlun, looked at Zhang Hao with a flash of surprise in his eyes. The person in front of him is young beyond imagination. However, it was this young man who used his own power to move the world.
Now, he came to the East himself. To compete with the Eastern family for hegemony. A Dayang Group, established less than ten years ago, wants to challenge the hegemony of the Eastern Twelve Families for hundreds of thousands of years!
But what made Han Yanqiu even more vigilant was that the moment he saw Zhang Hao, he felt his heart twitch. It seems that they saw the existence of terror. Moreover, Zhang Hao has an indescribable domineering, faint, but like Tianwei!
It felt like a rabbit meeting a tiger! Instead of seeing a fierce wolf. It was the breath of a king.
Could it be that Zhang Hao's cultivation has surpassed the stage of transforming gods? Han Yanqiu's heart beat wildly.
Zhang Hao walked slowly, looked at the people around, and smiled lightly: "I'm bothering everyone. It's just the next thing, I have to come here in person."
Han Yanqiu hurried forward to greet him: "Where, Han is lucky to meet Mr. Zhang; the soldiers of the three armies have been looking forward to it for a long time. Mr. Zhang, please come inside."
