On the same day that Chen Xing returned to Dragon City, the heads of the three principalities of Chiyan, Hanling, and Black Spear gathered again to discuss a response plan.
As soon as the communication meeting started, the atmosphere became a little heavy. The faces of the three kings were gloomy, and an old acquaintance was missing from the table. The original Four Kingdoms Alliance became the Three Kingdoms Alliance.
No one spoke first, they all frowned and seemed to be frowning.
"If you have any ideas, just say it. Don't always look downcast. We haven't lost this war yet!"
The first to lose his temper was Marquis Chiyan, who was known for his fiery temper. He spoke gruffly, as if everyone sitting there was a coward.
"The ruler of Stone City, the great Bronze Hammer Grantham..." Elvis Bartley, Marquis of Black Spear, raised his head and stared at Marquis Chiyan, "If you have any ideas, please tell us."
"My idea is..." Marquis Chiyan raised his head, turned his short neck in a circle, and slammed the table hard, making a loud "bang" sound.
"We can't just sit here!" He said loudly and with great momentum, just like the speech he gave at the annual Harvest Festival celebration.
Marquis Black Spear and Marquis Xiao Tiehu of Hanling looked at each other, and then fell into silence again. Seeing that the two kings did not respond, Marquis Chiyan sat down angrily, folded his hands on his chest, and knitted his brows into a big knot.
In the silence, the three kings raised their heads in unison and looked at the same position.
There sat a young man with a cold face, his fingers crossed, supporting the countertop, and tapping unconsciously with one finger with clear joints.
While being watched by the three kings, the young man remained indifferent, as if he didn't notice and was thinking to himself.
After a while, the Marquis of Black Spear finally couldn't bear it anymore and said to the young man, "Nephew Lin..."
Lin Yuanzheng slowly turned his head, and Marquis Black Spear continued to ask, "I wonder, what does Nephew Lin think of the current situation?"
When asked a question by name, the young man seemed a little reluctant and stood up lazily.
I saw him holding the table with both hands, tilting his head and looking around, his eyes scanning the faces of the people participating in the meeting one by one, and then he said slowly, "If everyone sitting here doesn't have a suitable idea for the time being, or maybe I am stingy with my words and unwilling to express my position easily, but I have a good idea here..."
He paused and emphasized his tone, "It can be solved once and for all!"
"From now on, singing and dancing will bring peace, and there will be no more worries."
Hearing what Lin Yuanzheng said, the three kings suddenly raised their brows, their eyes shone with excitement, and their faces showed excitement.
"Oh, the commander-in-chief of our alliance has an idea!" "Nephew Lin is indeed a great talent!" "He is quick in thinking and has great strategies. He is worthy of being a famous teacher who gives birth to a great disciple."
The three kings praised enthusiastically, but Lin Yuanzheng said calmly, "My method is very simple, that is..."
"Kill me!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the three kings were stunned, with the word "shock" written all over their eyes, nose, mouth, and eyebrows.
"Nephew Lin, what do you mean?" Marquis Black Spear was the first to come to his senses and asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"That's what it means literally." Lin Yuanzheng raised his voice, "Kill me, and then take my head and offer it to the fifth princess."
"Let's just say that you were confused for a moment and listened to the thieves from Qing Kingdom to sow discord, so you made a big mistake."
"Now that you have finally woken up and realized that the other party has evil intentions and wild ambitions, you are now dedicating his head to the princess in the hope that she will be merciful."
"Maybe the fifth princess will be happy and recruit you all."
"From now on, with a supremely powerful person as your backer, are you still afraid of ending up like Wei Haitang, with your country ruined and your family ruined, filling up the Tongren Alley?"
The faces of the three kings became more and more ugly, their faces turned black and blue, and their fists clenched.
"What did you say!" "Presumptuous!"
Marquis Chiyan and Marquis Hanling shouted loudly at the same time.
"Nephew Lin, I know you feel a little unhappy, but saying this is too much!" Marquis Black Spear said.
"Did I make a mistake?" Lin Yuanzheng spread his hands and said, "As the commander-in-chief of the alliance, I don't have a single soldier under my command, and no one listened to my opinions during the meeting. Isn't this just a way to take the blame when suing for peace? ?”
"This..." Marquis Black Spear was speechless for a moment.
Lin Yuanzheng shrugged, looking indifferent, "Don't worry, I'm here to eat your food and drink your food.
It's time to make some contribution. "
The Marquis of Chiyan was so angry that his beard was shaking, but he was speechless. The Marquis of Hanling on the other side looked deep in thought and remained silent.
"You don't have to worry. Although my teacher is ranked fourth in the world, you have Her Majesty the Fifth Princess who is ranked second in the world. You don't have to be afraid of him at all. What's more, you have the protection of the King's Declaration."
"So..." Lin Yuanzheng concluded, "Sending me out to sue for peace is the most beneficial measure for you at the moment."
Marquis Chiyan snorted heavily, "If we wanted to surrender, we wouldn't be sitting here today!"
"We, the Black Spear clan, have been favored by the emperor for generations, and we will definitely not commit treason against the country and the emperor."
"But other than surrender, I can't think of any way for you." Lin Yuanzheng said with an evil look on his face, gritting his teeth, "Because what you did before is no different from surrender!"
"The 800,000 coalition troops, plus the two Silver Claw armies and a city garrison, more than 1.2 million troops, were all destroyed in the hands of 200,000 enemy troops."
"No one with a bit of military knowledge would be able to do such a thing."
"In that case, why struggle?" Lin Yuanzheng showed a sarcastic look, "If you give in early, kneel under the beauty's skirt, and still retain the right to rule, why not?"
"Boy, I'm warning you!" Marquis Chiyan pointed at Lin Yuanzheng with a fierce look on his face, his tone was extremely ferocious, "If you dare to insult Grantham's honor again, be careful I'll break your neck!"
"Old Grantham, don't be impulsive!" Marquis Blackspear hurriedly tried to smooth things over.
"Come on, I know you've always wanted to do this!" Lin Yuanzheng roared. All the humiliation and depression suffered during this period were vented.
Marquis Chiyan could no longer hold back and let out a loud roar, slamming his fists on the table. The heavy conference table suddenly sank and cracked, sawdust flew everywhere, the table legs dug into the ground, and the tiles spread like a spider web throughout the conference hall.
"Old Tonghammer, don't be impulsive!" "He talks ugly, but he is on our side!"
Marquis Black Spear and Marquis Hanling advised at the same time.
The illusion of the conference table still existed, but the table in the red rock layer palace collapsed, while the ones in Hanling and Black Spear were not broken.
Marquis Chiyan gasped and gradually calmed down. There was nothing he could do except smash his own things, unless he rode the flaming goat now, across the Ghost Crying Plains, and rushed into the Black Spear Palace to cause a scene.
But if this were done, the Triple Alliance would cease to exist. As the leader of the country, he still has some sense.
"I said, don't use Qin Wu. He is a madman. It is impossible for a madman to lead troops to fight, but what have you done?" Lin Yuanzheng gritted his teeth, hating that iron cannot be made into steel. "You gave him military power and high hopes, and then Do you see what he has done?"
"Killing generals before the war, charging without thinking, doing everything based on mood, being narrow-minded, and seeking revenge, and finally sabotaging the glorious decisive battle. Such a person can do a better job than just finding a beggar on the street to be a marshal!"
"I admit that we made a terrible decision that resulted in today's bad consequences, but..." Marquis Black Spear said, "He represents the fourth prince and the orthodoxy of the Malan royal family. We cannot reject him."
"My dear Marquis Bartley, do you still want to shirk your responsibilities at this time?"
"You are just greedy for petty gains and want to use Qin Wu's gluttonous monarch to achieve your goals!" Lin Yuanzheng's tone was aggressive, and he had no intention of saving face for the kings. "You don't want to pay the price, but you want to win. There is such a good thing in the world. Something about that?”
"It's us who make the decision, we're the one who pays the price, it's that simple."
"If we don't face up to our mistakes, what awaits us will be the next mistake, a more terrible and irreversible mistake!"
"Well, we did make a mistake in this matter." Marquis Hanling, who had been silent, stood up, faced Lin Yuanzheng, and bowed ninety degrees, "Mr. Lin Yuanzheng, the commander-in-chief of our alliance, because of the previous For neglect, I, Xiao Tiehu, formally apologize to you!"
Marquis Black Spear was the second to bow and apologize, while Marquis Chiyan sat down with his arms folded, tilted his neck, and said elsewhere, "I'm sorry, I was reckless!"
Although his attitude is not very correct, everyone present knows that it is not easy for Marquis Chiyan, who has always had a hard and bad temper, to do this.
"But I still have to say that we did underestimate the strength of the commander of the expeditionary force." Marquis Blackspear argued that this is the pride of being the leader of the country.
"Indeed, I didn't expect that Chen Xing to be so powerful." Hanlinghou
Jue agreed.
"Although Chen Xing's heroic warship is very powerful, it is not without its weaknesses." Lin Yuanzheng analyzed, "Qin Wu is a madman and has nothing to say, but Marquis Haitang lost because of his arrogance and conceit."
"Nephew Lin, what do you mean by this?" Marquis Black Spear looked puzzled.
"If Wei Haitang gave up frontal combat and adopted roundabout tactics, perhaps the results would be different." Lin Yuanzheng took out a stack of information from under the table and threw it on the table. "Based on my research these days, I found that burning warships is not like We were as invincible as we imagined.”
"This heroic warship has a certain power of rules and can knock away all obstacles in front of it, but apart from collision, it seems to have no other means of attack. And its speed is not fast. As long as you are prepared in advance, dodge and Not difficult."
"Marquis Haitang looked down on his opponent and never thought of avoiding it, so he failed." Lin Yuanzheng concluded.
"My Pan is not as fragile as Silver Crow." Marquis Chiyan said roughly.
"Pan" is the name of the false god the flaming goat, and its full name is "Pan the Shepherd".
"If you want to go head-to-head with the heroic warship, your fate will be the same as Wei Haitang." Lin Yuanzheng said.
"Escape is not the behavior of a Red Nation warrior." Marquis Chiyan clenched his fist and said, "Paine's big horns and giant hooves will crush all his opponents!"
"Your Yuling is more flexible and stronger, and has a variety of attack methods. However, the opponent is useless except charging forward. Do you still want to persist?" Lin Yuanzheng asked.
Marquis Chiyan snorted, appearing very unconvinced, but did not continue to refute.
Lin Yuanzheng looked around, took a deep breath, and said, "If you are still eager to win, please listen carefully to every word below."
"We are in a very dangerous situation and if we lose just one more ally, we will be completely defeated."
"So we must work together to prevent the tragedy of Silver Claw from happening again."
"Now, I need an army, an army that can actually fight and fulfill my usefulness."
Lin Yuanzheng's tone was calm, and his eyes were full of strong confidence. The three kings looked at each other, but they didn't speak for a long time.
"Nephew Lin, we, we don't have any extra soldiers for you right now." Marquis Black Spear said with some embarrassment.
The combined armies of the Red Rock, Black Spear, and Cold Countries are similar to the armies of the Red Dragon and Black Feather Countries. If some of them are separated, the balance of the front lines will be unbalanced.
"I know." Lin Yuanzheng made a "calm down" gesture, then opened his hands, and a virtual map gradually enlarged under stretching.
The three kings looked at it together. The map was very familiar. It was just an ordinary world map.
The five continents and Arctic glaciers, major mountain ranges and rivers, and every country are labeled.
"We can ask for help from the five southern countries, Tianqin, Norton, Hongsang, Xiaoyue, and Nice. Although our camps are different, they all support the orthodoxy of the Malan royal family just like us."
"Ice Blue City has been inactive. Trilis is probably not good at running the country and the army. Unless a suitable candidate appears, this situation will continue."
"They are under very little pressure now, and we can get some support from them with future commitments."
"Those southerners are cowards, and I hate associating with them." The leader of Chiyan Kingdom cursed, seeming to recall some unpleasant experience.
"On the battlefield, the enemy of our enemy is our friend! Our current situation is very bad. If possible, we need to unite all the forces that can be united." Lin Yuanzheng clenched his fists and said loudly, "In addition, we also need to fight for With the support from the outer continents, the Eastern Continent and the Western Continent, I believe there will be many monarchs willing to invest in this war to increase their influence in the Red Country."
"Since the death of the previous Grand Councilor, the supreme seat of the Human Survival Committee has been vacant. Many monarchs are ambitious and coveted for this. If we can get the support of the future ruler of the Red Country, I believe the success rate will be much higher."
"Because the Red Country is the most powerful country in the world, increasing its influence in the Red Country is equivalent to increasing its influence in the world!"
"That's right, we are the most powerful country!" "We are the most powerful country in the world!" "Above the middle earth, north of the red earth, is the world!"
Lin Yuanzheng's words touched the hearts of the three kings, and all of them glowed with excitement.
