Regarding City Lord Hong's failure to auction the cultivation pills in the small town of Yunnan and Guizhou, everyone felt a little complicated at this time.
At the beginning, they really didn't want Lord Hongcheng to take pictures of the cultivation pill. After all, it would definitely not be a good thing for the cities around Hongcheng.
However, who among them would have thought that the White City Alliance would suddenly attack them?
Although the White City Alliance has only occupied Xianyue City, with this beginning, it is difficult for them to prevent the neighboring White City Alliance from continuing to annex other cities.
Moreover, Xianyue City used to be the gateway to these cities. Now that Xian Yue City has been lost, even if the White City Alliance does not plan to continue to capture their city.
But who can guarantee that the Baicheng Alliance will not capture their city again in the future? After all, Xian Yue City belongs to them, and they can attack everyone whenever they want.
Therefore, the occupation of Xianyue City was like a thorn in the hearts of all of them. From then on, they had to live in fear every day, always on guard against whether the White City Alliance would attack them.
Obviously no one wants to live such a life.
However, the quasi-immortal-level cultivation pill had been missed. Even if they were willing to pay to help City Master Hong get that cultivation pill back at this time, it would be impossible for them.
"It doesn't make any sense to talk about this now. Now that the White City Alliance has taken action, we can only unite.
The White City Alliance has a total of twelve cities, and we have twenty-five cities. In terms of number, we are twice as many as them, so we actually have an advantage.
However, we did not expect that the Baicheng Alliance would suddenly attack us, so it would take time for reinforcements from all the cities to come to Longcheng or Yuncheng.
However, before setting off to Longcheng, I had sent people to send signals to various cities.
If the Baicheng Alliance does not send troops to Longcheng or Yuncheng during this period, then we should be able to wait for these reinforcements.
As long as these reinforcements arrive, we can basically hold off the White City Alliance. " City Lord Hong said.
Although he felt very uncomfortable about the cultivation pill, he didn't want to talk about it anymore.
He knew very well what these people were thinking. Now they might say that they should have helped him get the cultivation pill, but what's the point?
Because now their safety is threatened, but when their lives are not threatened, there is no way they will have the idea to help him fight for the cultivation pill.
Therefore, he would not take these people's words seriously.
But he doesn't want to destroy everyone's unity at this time, because in the current situation, only if everyone unites can they survive this disaster.
Otherwise, everyone will be in disarray, and in the end they will be the only ones unlucky.
"I'm afraid that the Baicheng Alliance won't wait for us for so long. Tancheng and Huangcheng are the farthest cities from us, but it will take them at least ten days to get here.
Although the Baicheng Alliance has not sent troops now, it is unlikely that they will wait until ten days before sending troops! "The Lord of Huaicheng said.
"City Lord Hong, since you have arrived, should we station our troops outside the city so that the Baicheng Alliance can retreat in the face of difficulties?" Lord Long City said.
Although City Lord Hong and these City Lords brought people to help him, he did not feel at ease.
Because the White City Alliance is very powerful, this number of people may not be enough.
Moreover, if they don't show up, how will the Baicheng Alliance know that they have reinforcements in Longcheng?
Therefore, he wanted to let these people show their faces in front of the Baicheng Alliance. In this way, when they see that there are so many reinforcements in Longcheng, they may not dare to send troops to Longcheng again.
"This won't work. If we station people outside the city, wouldn't that expose our strength?
Not only will it fail to deter them, but it will actually make them aware of our strength! " City Lord Hong shook his head and retorted.
"But if our people don't show up, they will think that we don't have many people in Longcheng, and they will most likely send troops to Longcheng!
Once the White City Alliance sends troops to us, we will all be in danger, and we may not be able to resist! "The Lord of Long City said worriedly.
"If you want to deter them, you don't have to take all our people out. That's not safe. What if they attack at night? Then our losses will be even greater.
Therefore, if we want to deter them, it is best to hang the flags of each city on the city walls.
That way, they know all our reinforcements have arrived. " City Lord Hong said.
"Is this useful? Flags can be forged. Even if there are no reinforcements, we can still hang the flag!" The Lord of Long City was not satisfied with this method.
"What does this have to do with it? The key to deterrence is this kind of reality. Although you can hang the flag without reinforcements, the Baicheng Alliance is not sure whether you have reinforcements in Longcheng.
The more they are confused about the real situation, the less they dare to act rashly.
Moreover, we not only have to hang up the flags of our cities, but also hang up the flags of those cities in Hancheng that have not even arrived yet.
In addition, starting from tomorrow during the day, we will let the soldiers and horses from each city go out for a tour! In this case, they will not feel that Longcheng has no reinforcements.
But they couldn't figure out how many reinforcements came from Longcheng! " City Lord Hong said.
"City Master Hong has a good idea, but the reality is what worries them the most!" City Master Huaicheng was the first to stand up and support.
As reinforcements, they naturally do not want to really start a war with the Baicheng Alliance here.
Once a war breaks out, it will inevitably cause huge losses to each of their cities.
If this small means is enough to prevent them from sending troops to Longcheng, then this is definitely the best way.
"Then it's settled. Starting tomorrow, each city will send some soldiers and horses to patrol outside the city together, so that the people from the Baicheng Alliance can take a good look!" The Lord of Long City thought for a while and felt that this was definitely a good idea.
It is indeed a good thing to be able to frighten the White City Alliance without spending a single soldier.
So, the next day, at the north gate of Longcheng, which was the direction to Xianyue City, the entire city tower was hung with flags from each city.
Regardless of whether it was a city that came to Longcheng to support or a city that did not come to Longcheng, as long as it was a city belonging to their semi-alliance, all the flags were hung up.
In addition, their various cities also sent many soldiers and horses out to patrol the city. Different cities wore different costumes. It can be seen at a glance that these people come from different forces!
