"Presumptuous." Ao Lie finally couldn't bear it anymore and slapped the conference table with his palm, smashing the entire table to pieces in an instant.
The smoke and dust from the exploding wood chips at the conference table filled the air, and then gradually settled quietly. No one spoke anymore, and the two of them were silent, seeming to be calming down or reflecting.
A few minutes later, Guo Jia sighed, bowed and said, "Lord, I'm leaving."
Looking at Guo Jia's leaving figure, Ao Jiang's eyes turned red: "Are you going to abandon me?"
Guo Jia stopped but did not turn around.
After a few seconds, he slowly replied: "I didn't betray you, it was you who betrayed yourself."
After these words, Guo Jia moved again.
Sudden……
"I was wrong." Ao Lie suddenly said something that shocked Guo Jia. The voice was very soft, but because the room was unusually quiet, Guo Jia still heard it.
In just a few minutes, I don't know what kind of struggle Ao Lie went through in his heart before he said these words.
Guo Jia slowly turned around and glanced at Ao Lie. His eyes were wet, and his self-esteem and dominance had been completely compromised by Guo Jia.
"Guo Jia, I was wrong, help me."
Today is probably the only time in Ao Lie's life that he has admitted his mistakes to others. Guo Jia understood clearly and also saw Ao Lie's difficulty.
"Abandon Wangcheng and head southwest." Guo Jia replied.
"Southwest? Aren't you going back to Xichuan?"
"In half a year, Kaiding has established a firm foothold in Xichuan. There is no need to go to Xichuan. Even if he goes, it will only be a lose-lose fight with Kaiding. Now, our only choice is the southwest, the land of Tianzhu."
The land of Tianzhu is the continent due south of the Asian continent, also called the Tianzhu Peninsula. It is bordered by the Eurasian desert to the north and the ocean to the southeast and west. From Yanhuang to Tianzhu, we have to cross the southwest mountains.
The mountains in the southwest are not easy to cross. High mountains, cliffs, and birds and beasts will all become resistance to crossing the mountains. But once you cross the mountains, you reach a new world. The Tianzhu Peninsula is as rich as the Hedong land of the Yanhuang Kingdom. Although the total area is only one-fifth of the Yanhuang Kingdom, it is indeed a very good choice.
"Tianzhu, do I, Ao Lie, really want to leave my hometown? Doesn't this mean giving up Yanhuang to Jiang Feng?"
"No, Yan and Huang are not so easy to unify. Although the zombies in Beiming were defeated, Kaidin occupied Xichuan and transferred a large number of civilians and troops. Xichuan will become the new...asxs. of the rise of the zombies." Guo Jia explained .
"Won't Jiang Feng continue to attack Xichuan?"
"Jiang Feng is no longer able to go to Xichuan. This war that spanned more than half a year has already exhausted the national strength of Jiang's forces. Even if he wants to fight Xichuan, he will have to prepare for a year and a half. In addition, there are still many Yanhuang forces A powerful force, they will not allow Jiang Feng’s family to dominate.”
"But aren't those forces Jiang Feng's allies?"
"There are no allies in the world. Those forces will never be Jiang Feng's friends. Po Kong, Wei Chi, Liu Chuan and others have shown that they have good relations with Jiang Feng, but they will not give their territory to Jiang Feng in vain. If Jiang Feng wants to get it, he still has to rely on his ability."
"But aren't Lao Pokong and Lao Wei Chi facing Jiang Feng?"
"Do you think they really want Jiang Feng? Things are far from that simple. Many things are changing. The longer time goes by, the greater the changes. In the past, they regarded Jiang Feng as their king.
That's a first universe thing. They came to our universe through the time machine. At that time, they still thought that Jiang Feng had the ability to unify the world. However, as time goes by, they gradually find that their own development has been very good. The arduous mission of creating world peace and unifying the troubled world does not seem to necessarily be completed by Jiang Feng. After all, it has been almost two years since the end of the world. Jiang Feng still has not completed unification. On the other hand, the American continent has already achieved unification, and its comprehensive national strength is several times that of Jiang's power. "
"It is true that the Menes Empire is already very powerful, but it helped Jiang Feng, didn't it? If it hadn't helped, we wouldn't have been defeated so quickly."
"No, even if the Menes Empire doesn't help, we won't be able to hold on for long. The battle in Beiming is the key. Now that Jiang Feng's battle in Beiming has entered the final stage, our failure is a certainty. As a result, at this time, the Menes Empire came to help It was their meaningless help that made me believe that Lao Po Kong had second thoughts and was no longer loyal to Jiang Feng."
"I understand, if you don't help early, you won't help later, but you help Jiang Feng when he is about to win. They are not helping at all, but coming to take credit." Ao Lie suddenly had an epiphany.
"Exactly, because of the intervention of the Menes Empire, even if Jiang Feng wins, he must reward him based on his merits. And Jiang Zhi's power has already been riddled with holes, so he still has to give out rewards. Jiang Zhi's power is about to be hollowed out. And Jiang Feng’s only way is to end the war as soon as possible and develop well. Jiang Zhi’s forces need time, and Jiang Feng needs time, so he simply cannot complete unification in a short time.”
"So, we haven't lost yet."
"Of course, it's too early to talk about winning or losing." Guo Jia showed an evil smile.
"Well, Guo Jia, since you already have a strategy, why didn't you tell me just now?"
"Lord, I have been waiting, waiting for you to reflect on yourself."
"So you did it on purpose, just to make me admit my mistake?"
"Admitting mistakes is not my purpose. I hope you can curb your stubbornness, curb your personal desires, and take a longer view."
"I see. Although it sounds uncomfortable, I am still grateful for you. I am lucky to have your help in my life."
"There's no need for polite words. Let's hold another meeting quickly and prepare to withdraw our troops."
"Okay, it's up to you."
In this way, Ao Lie began a large-scale withdrawal of troops. The strongholds that were originally entrenched around Wangcheng were abandoned one after another.
At this time, Jiang Feng's helicopter happened to fly over Ningtai City.
Looking down from the sky, you can see countless armies coming from the direction of Wangcheng, and they continue to gather in the southwest.
"Strange, these troops should be Ao Lie's troops, why are they all gathering in the southwest?" Song Yuan asked curiously.
"Ao Lie should be preparing to withdraw his troops." Jiang Feng guessed.
"Are you planning to withdraw your troops so soon?"
"With the current situation, Ao Lie is no longer allowed. It is a wise move to withdraw our troops at this time." Jiang Feng said with a smile.
"Ao Lie really lost his wife and troops this time. Where else can he go now? Most of the territory in Xichuan has been occupied by Kaiding." Song Yuan asked curiously.
"Pang Long, how about you answer this question?" Jiang Feng asked.
"Ao Lie should go to Nan Province in Xichuan. The terrain there is mostly steep mountains, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack. The Gray Tribe has not yet invaded Nan Province, so Nan
Province is the only option. In addition, refugees who fled due to the war poured into Southern Province in droves. Therefore, if Ao Lie can return to Nan Province in time, he still has the capital to make a comeback. "
"What Pang Long said makes sense, but it is unrealistic to rely on Nan Province alone to make a comeback," Jiang Feng said.
"That's right, the resources in Nannan Province are too single. Except for the rich ore resources, other resources are very scarce." Song Yuan agreed.
At this time, Jiang Wei didn't understand.
"Aren't ore resources very precious? As long as there are enough of them, other resources don't matter. Just buy them with ore."
"Song Yuan, please explain it to me." Jiang Feng said with a smile.
"Well, it's actually like this. Ore resources are indeed precious, but output takes time. And Aolie's war that lasted for half a year has already depleted the ore, so it is impossible to obtain much ore resources in the short term. Secondly, because of the lack of Other resources, so the development of Southern Province will be restricted. I won’t talk about anything else. Just talking about food resources is enough. The mountainous terrain cannot grow food, so there will be a serious food shortage. In order to feed so many people, Ao Lie can only exchange the ore for food. And there are enemies all around, so they will definitely try to trick Ao Lie, so that Ao Lie's ore cannot be sold at a good price. Do you think this situation can help develop the power? "
"Aren't there many large animals in the mountains? Killing one can feed a hundred people."
"Remember, there is a certain balance in the existence of everything. Especially large animals. If you kill too many animals, you will destroy the local ecosystem and lead to the extinction of large animals. Furthermore, killing large animals can only solve urgent needs. , is not a sustainable development path. Without destroying the local ecosystem, large animals can only feed hundreds of thousands of humans at most. If Ao Lie stays there, his power will not develop."
"So that's it. It's fine on a small scale, but there's nothing you can do on a big scale."
"That's right. Actually, Jiang Wei, I really advise you to read more. You are actually very smart, but you just don't like to study. There are some things you still need to know."
"I don't like sitting in class, it's too boring." Jiang Wei curled her lips.
"Oh, it's true, I was spoiled by Jiang Feng."
"Haha, forget it, this is a special period and Jiang Wei won't be interested in studying. Let's do this. When the situation stabilizes in the future, we can hire some tutors for Jiang Wei," Jiang Feng said.
"Dad, are you going to force me to study too?"
"Of course you have to study, but don't worry, I won't give you homework." Jiang Feng smiled.
"That's okay." Jiang Wei said with a smile.
After laughing, Jiang Wei suddenly reacted: "Wait a minute, we haven't finished talking yet. Since Xichuan Southern Province is not suitable for Ao Lie's development, will Ao Lie find a way to go elsewhere?"
"That's a good question, but Yanhuang has no more room for Ao Lie. If he wants to find another way out, he can only take one risk." Jiang Feng said.
"What's the risk?"
"Crossing the southwest mountains and heading to the land of Tianzhu." Jiang Feng guessed.
"No way, the mountains in the southwest are full of cliffs. Bringing a large number of civilians over the mountains will cause great losses." Song Yuan said in surprise.
“It’s not an adventure if you don’t lose money.”
"But even if we cross the southwest mountains, there should be many forces in the land of Zhu. There will be a lot of resistance to invade there." Song Yuan analyzed.
