Chapter 733 Another Sacrifice

"Everyone calm down!"

Ruan Ping was the first to regain his composure, looked around at his allies, and said calmly: "Everyone, the city-state has not yet reached its end. Not only do we have 150,000 allied troops, but we also have large troops stationed in various territories. Gather together another 150,000 troops."

"That's not enough, the opponent is half a million elite." Someone said dejectedly.

Ruan Ping was not angry either, "Don't forget, we are not fighting alone, we still have allies!"

As if responding to Ruan Ping's words, a guard hurried in and handed Ruan Ping an urgent letter.

Ruan Ping took a look at it and said with a smile on his face, "What did I say? Everyone, this is a letter from the lord of Caiyun City. He has joined forces with 50,000 generals and will immediately go south to support us."

A lord laughed and said, "Caiyun City has a bit of a conscience."

"It's Caiyun City, isn't it [Shunan City-State]?" Some lords with keen thinking also found problems.

"To be precise, Caiyun City joined forces with several allies to send troops together." Ruan Ping's explanation was a bit far-fetched, and he tried to smile and said: "Anyway, this is a good start, isn't it? Maybe wait a little longer , other city-states will also send letters to support us."

Ruan Ping was doomed to be disappointed.

For the whole morning, except for Caiyunzhinan's letter, there was no news from other city-states.

The atmosphere in the headquarters, which had just become active, dropped to freezing point again.

"This group of treacherous guys!"

The lords were the most angry at the [Yunnan City-state]'s reluctance to save them. Fortunately, they supported [Yunnan City-state] like that before, they are really a bunch of white-eyed wolves.

After hearing this, Ruan Ping also looked very embarrassed. He had already written to Qin Feng, asking why.

Unfortunately, Qin Feng never wrote back to him.

What surprised Ruan Ping even more was that [Yanhuang League] also did not move.

This is the step to completely knock down Ruan Ping.

According to the result of his previous discussions with Di Chen and others, [Yanhuang League] promised that once [Lingnan City-State] was invaded by Shanhai City, it would definitely send troops to support it.

For this reason, they deliberately left a territory in Lingnan Province, which was not incorporated into the city-state system, in order to form an alliance with Handan City and other cities, so that they could send the army over.

How could Ruan Ping have thought that such a result would be the start of the real war.

"It shouldn't be!"

Ruan Ping thought hard, but couldn't figure it out.

*************

Kyoto Province, Handan City.

Dichen wasn't really treacherous, he just had a difficult reason.

As soon as Shanhai City invaded [Lingnan City-State], Di Chen called Jue Dai Fenghua to discuss sending troops for reinforcements, but unexpectedly, things changed.

"There is news from [Difeng] that て砆 has been in contact with the major mercenary regiments in Wangcheng this week. According to reliable information, ブ砆 plans to hire 100,000 mercenaries at one time." Jue Dai Fenghua said.

The purpose of hiring mercenaries in Stone City is self-evident, and they have only one opponent, Handan City.

"Where did that kid get so much money?" Di Chen was puzzled.

Speaking of which, て砆 was in the same camp as Di Chen and the others at first. When Di Chen was at his worst, he entered Di Chen's camp under Di Chen's strong invitation and rescued Di Chen from the siege.

It's just that the two of them parted ways again because of disagreement in ideas and status after they cooperated not long ago.

Therefore, Di Chen was not ignorant of 砆.

"It may be a loan from the Four Seas Bank." Juedai Fenghua speculated, "The biggest possibility is that Qiyue Wuyi directly lent it to て砆. All indications show that Qiyue Wuyi made a lot of money under Yuanyang."

"Fucking luck!" Di Chen complained secretly.

"You said that the old fox specially instructed you to do this, right? The purpose is to keep us at bay, but in fact they were not hired at all?" Di Chen speculated.

Jue Dai Fenghua nodded and said: "I don't rule out this possibility. But I'm still inclined, this is a conspiracy. We don't send troops, and the two sides will naturally live in peace; if we really send troops to reinforce [Lingnan City-State], the other party may really take advantage of it." Take this opportunity to take a bite of meat in the north."

"Everything shows that Qiyue Wuyi is not just trying to set a nail in the north, but to cultivate a force that can compete with us. Therefore, the stubborn stone city has an objective need to attack us. . " Juedai Fenghua took this opportunity to secretly remind Dichen not to underestimate his neighbor in the north.

"So, the old fox is using money to pressure us this time, warning us not to act rashly?"

Di Chen's face was a bit ugly, isn't this method the patent of the children of their aristocratic families? ! Why did the old fox use it on them in a blink of an eye.

"What a sarcasm!"

"It can be understood in this way." Jue Dai Feng Hua saw it clearly.

The game has its rules, and the distribution of wealth is different from reality. If the children of the aristocratic family are still immersed in the status of wealth harvesters, they may stumble again.

"If we don't send troops, how can we explain to our ally Ruan Ping?" Di Chen was a little embarrassed.

Peerless Fenghua's eyes were indifferent, but the words she said were chilling, "What do you want to explain to a dead person?" She was not optimistic about [Lingnan City-State] at all in the Lingnan War.

A pawn with no use value is doomed to be discarded.

Di Chen was silent.

It's not that Di Chen couldn't bear to abandon Ruan Ping. On this point, he was consistent with Jue Dai Feng Hua, and his heart was as hard as a rock. What Di Chen was unwilling to give up was an excellent opportunity to snipe the rise of Shanhai City.

Seeing that in the first half of the year, Handan City showed great power and finally narrowed the gap between the two sides. In a blink of an eye, it seems that there will be an even bigger gap.

This kind of blow is really deep enough and unforgettable.

"Don't think too much." Jue Dai Fenghua's expression softened, like a spring breeze blowing on his face, warming people's hearts and soothing Di Chen's restless mind, and said: "It is right to settle down and consolidate our own foundation. [Di Feng] returns , there are still some resistance forces lurking everywhere in the territory, ready to make trouble at any time."

After hearing this, Di Chen struggled for a few times, and finally sighed. This feeling of being sternly suppressed and calculated by the opponent is really very uncomfortable for Dichen, who is so proud.

If it wasn't for several times of tempering, Di Chen would have exploded long ago.

As for now, Di Chen has been able to easily control his emotions. He didn't say anything even when he was defeated in the Battle of Chibi, but his mentality became better and better.

"Just listen to you, let's just watch the show!" Di Chen nodded.

Peerless Fenghua smiled softly.

"That's right." Di Chen suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Two days ago, Xiongba proposed at the alliance meeting that we should launch a hidden force to instigate Xunlong's acupuncture points. What do you think?"

Peerless Fenghua thought for a while and said, "It can be done, but don't expect too much."

"How to say?"

Peerless Fenghua brushed his hair, and said with a smile, "I asked [Difeng] to collect information about Xunlong acupuncture point. This person is a task madman. Go to the dark. To put it bluntly, I just like to dig into a dead end."

"That's right. Otherwise, he wouldn't have quarreled with the old fox over a trivial matter. He's really stupid." Di Chen nodded in agreement, deeply convinced.

"Stupid is not to say. This person can be seen by Qiyue Wuyi, and he has developed to this day. After all, he still has some skills. At least, he is not really stupid." Jue Dai Fenghua shook his head, "Let's instigate rebellion and search for dragon acupuncture points, the bigger ones Maybe, they are being used by each other. Xunlong Dianxue will not trust us sincerely."

"That's not bad." Di Chen nodded.

In Dichen's eyes, allies are taking advantage of each other.

"One more thing, it's different from Qiyue Wuyi's pattern. Xunlong Dian's Acupuncture has a bit of hatred for the rich. To put it bluntly, it's the mentality of a petty citizen, who naturally dislikes wealthy families." Jue Dai Fenghua reminded.

Di Chen nodded, "I've heard about this too."

Mentioning this, Dichen's expression changed, and he suddenly remembered that at the first system auction, wasn't he once publicly humiliated by the Siege Lion and Xunlong's Acupuncture? !

Before that, Dichen had no interest in contacting Xunlong's acupuncture points at all.

It is different now, for the sake of benefit, Di Chen can choose to forget the unhappiness before.

Peerless Fenghua went on to say: "Xiong Ba is so enthusiastic about instigating rebellion and finding dragon acupuncture points, but he just wants to build a buffer barrier between Bawang City and Shanhai City. Especially since the Lingnan War started, Shanhai City is about to take down the Lingnan Province .If there is no change in Xunlongdian acupoint, Xiongba will have a headache."

"Hmph, after that guy took Yizhou Island, he was very proud. Now he knows he's afraid? He was beheaded in the Battle of Chibi, and it would be embarrassing to say it." Dichen didn't have any good feelings for Xiongba.

"Speaking of Yizhou Island, I don't believe Wuyi will be indifferent." The meaning of peerless elegance is unclear.

"You're right, let him fight the old fox, let's sit on the mountain and watch the tiger's head." Di Chen also figured it out, and his mood suddenly became cheerful.

At this time, Di Chen was fortunate that his territory was far behind Shanhai City.

"So, we can just sit on the sidelines and let Xiongba worry about the matter of instigating the rebellion. It's gratifying to succeed, and we don't lose anything if we fail. Why not do it?"

"That's it!" Dichen nodded.

In the study room, it gradually became quiet.

*************

Taiyuan Province, Luofeng City.

Shanhai City shifted its attack target, and even Feng Prison Huang, an ally, didn't know about it.

"Even I keep it from you, sooner or later I will settle accounts with you!" Feng Prisonhuang was still so domineering.

"My lord, should we do something?"

The person who asked the question was a middle-aged counselor, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Cheng Yu, who was under Cao Cao's tent.

Phoenix Prisoner Huang really has skills, failed to subdue Cheng Yu on the battle map, returned to the main map, and recruited this top strategist into his tent in a blink of an eye.

I don't know how she did it.

"Of course we have to do something, no matter what, we have to create some trouble for Di Chen and the others."

The corner of Feng Prisonhuang's mouth smiled, but there was a murderous intent in his eyes.
