"In addition to resisting the beast tide, this is the first time that each city and faction has taken the initiative to start a war with the monsters! Needless to say, victory or defeat, but what benefits can I get from Dingbei?" Taiqing Sect Wudu Sanren was the first to speak. .
"Yes, even the millions of cultivators on Bai Zong Mountain were beaten to pieces and fled in all directions. If we and other factions join the battle, we will inevitably suffer heavy casualties. If there are no great benefits, I can't even send troops." Dashun Wei Wujing, a businessman, also said coldly.
"You two are right. The use of swordsmanship will consume a lot of money. Our resources in Dingbei City are already tight. If there is another war, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it!" Chang Wuyou, the elder of the Taiqing Sect's teaching force, said in peace.
His words resonated with everyone in the venue, and they all nodded in agreement.
"Although what some of you said makes sense, have you ever thought about where Baizong Mountain is? It's a cornucopia. A lot of my materials in Dingbei come from there. There are also secret caves that suddenly appear, and there must be a lot of treasures in them. , these are the benefits. If the army of monsters is really defeated, then Beicheng will be prosperous!" Fan Gexuan, the general manager of Dashun Trading Company, has another opinion.
"Manager Fan only sees those illusory benefits, but have you ever thought about the ferocity of the sixth-level monster? Not to mention the sixth-level monster, I think it is a quasi-sixth-level monster, and you can't deal with it, right?" Tianxingmen Leader Lan Kuotian said sarcastically.
"Brother Lan is right. There are countless quasi-level six behemoths under the two big demons. Each of them is stronger than the fake elixir. They are all extremely fierce. They have caused heavy casualties to the cultivators of our Baizong Mountain!" Ning Daosheng couldn't help but nodded.
"No one can die in a war. If you want to gain something, you don't want to suffer losses. How can there be such a cheap thing in the world!" Pei Zhiming, the head guard of Dashun Trading Company, retorted.
In the past, Taiqing Sect and Dashun Trading Company always sang along and often joined forces to boycott Zhou Tianzong, but something was unusual today. The two factions actually had different opinions and even ridiculed each other, which puzzled Zhou Yang.
"Furthermore, there are four golden elixir masters in the Bai Zongshan line, and we also have four. Can the eight powerful golden elixir masters still not be able to deal with two or three sixth-level monsters? Speaking of quasi-sixth-level monsters, can it be Dingbei and Baizongshan's fake pills join forces, can't they take down these beasts?" Fan Gexuan's words were very sharp.
"Well said, Manager Fan's words are exactly what I want! They are just a bunch of beasts. How can I be afraid of them if I am a dignified city in Dingbei?" Gong Dingguo, the head of the Dingbei Gong family, said loudly.
This person is also from Dashun Trading Company.
"Yes, together with the cultivators from Bai Zong Mountain to fight against the monsters, the winning rate will be extremely high, and we will be able to occupy the secret cave with countless treasures. That is just around the corner!" The words of Hua Jiuxiong, the leader of the Jiuxiong Gang, were even more provocative.
The Jiuxiong Gang and the Taiqing Sect are very close.
Master Jibao on the stage frowned at first, then became comfortable and nodded slightly.
Chen Mie shook his head first, then fell into deep thought.
Then a dozen more people spoke, half positive and negative.
Some people in Zhou Tianzong were in favor of starting a war, but people in Bai Zongshan strongly opposed it. However, in the end of the debate, the main war faction had the upper hand.
As Zhou Yang listened, he felt something was wrong in the atmosphere. He smelled a hint of conspiracy.
"Brother Liao, Brother Chen, what do you two think?" Hai Tianxiao turned to the two of them.
"I respect everyone's opinions." Master Jibao said calmly.
"This matter is serious and must be treated with caution. However, since everyone agrees to go to war, I have no objection." Chen Miie said seriously.
"Deputy City Lord, what do you think?" Hai Tian looked at Fudo Master again.
"You really need to be cautious. If there is a war, it will be difficult to stop." Master Fudo had a solemn look on his face.
"Yes, that makes sense." Hai Tianxiao nodded slightly, but did not express his position. He already knew in his heart that the two old guys, Ji Bao and Chen Mie, were the main ones fighting.
At first, he was also confused by the various behaviors of the two factions, especially Chen Mi. His subordinates consistently opposed the war and went against the people of Dashun Trading Company. However, as the argument progressed, his subordinates seemed to be convinced. , all agreed to send troops to clear up the enemy.
And these two old guys also had different opinions and reluctantly agreed.
Until then, Hai Tianxiao finally understood that the two of them were singing together in a play. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Zhou Yang.
It happened that Zhou Yang also looked at Hai Tianxiao, and their eyes met each other. Although they passed by in a flash, Zhou Yang read something from that gaze, which further confirmed his guess, and he couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart.
"I dare to say that this battle is a God-given opportunity. Not only can we defeat the monsters, but we can also occupy the rich land of Bai Zong Mountain, as well as the secret cave with countless treasures.
Therefore, I sincerely request the city lord to issue a decree, prepare the troops and prepare for war, and join forces with the cultivators of Baizong Mountain to attack the beasts, eliminate the evil in one fell swoop, strengthen my prestige in the north, and strengthen my comrades all over the city, so that I can leave my name forever! "Wei Wujing bowed and said sincerely.
"I second the proposal!" Wu Du also stood up and made peace.
"I second the motion!"
"My subordinates also second the proposal!"
After the Five Poisons, everyone stood up and responded to Wei Wujing in unison.
"Lord City Lord, the monsters are extremely ferocious, killing people everywhere, they are invincible!" Ning Daosheng and Guo Fengji urged loudly.
"City Lord, since everyone is insisting on starting a war, we can't go against their will. What do you think?" Ji Bao said again when he saw Hai Tianxiao's hesitation.
"I also support war." Chen Mie changed his ambiguous attitude and unequivocally supported the use of force.
Hai Tianxiao nodded and said: "Okay! You are not afraid of powerful enemies and are full of fighting spirit. This city lord is very happy."
After a pause, he continued: "But since the founding of Dingbei, apart from hunting and resisting the tide of beasts, human cultivators have never taken the initiative to launch a war against monsters. There are no rules to follow and no experience to draw from. This all depends on All of you, sir, must think of a way and do your best."
Ji Bao and Chen Mie frowned when they heard this. What did Hai Tianxiao mean? Could it be that he was too timid to fight?
After a while, Hai Tianxiao continued: "War is a bottomless pit, and material supply is the key. However, the treasury is currently tight, and it will take time to replenish it. This battle must be fought, and it must be fought, otherwise it will be difficult to ensure that the beasts will free up their hands to invade our Dingbei." , but we must be fully prepared to ensure that the battle can be won and the battle must be won. Therefore, what is urgently needed now is to fill the treasury as soon as possible. When the treasury is full, we will start the war!"
When everyone heard this, they all kept silent, thinking that it was not over yet, and there was going to be heavy bleeding again! If this continues, our little blood will have to be drained.
Ji Bao and Chen Mie secretly looked at each other, their eyes were a little gloomy, but they also showed determination.
"The city lord is right. A war without guarantees cannot be won. It is very necessary to replenish the treasury, but it must be done quickly. Fighting opportunities are fleeting, so don't be careless. Now that the matter has been decided, let's discuss next. A question about military strategy?" Master Jibao nodded.
