"Therefore, our army will only appear on the most critical and urgent battlefields. As for Beiyuan, we can temporarily send a few powerful figures like Gale and Unicorn there, but our army will probably only come to your aid when you truly become the main battlefield."
Apart from Luo Nairong and Qinghe, everyone else present nodded in agreement. Indeed, the tribal alliance was too powerful, and there was no need to maintain only one front. Breaking through from multiple points was the right thing to do. This would also make it easier for the various tribes of Dongchuan to focus on their own affairs and not be able to form a united force.
"So the only battlefield that the ghost soldiers focus on is the one that the monkey tribe attacks from?" Mimi asked again.
"Not necessarily. In the end, the resistance against the racial alliance still depends on the various races of the Holy Domain themselves. Only when we, the Yin Soldiers, truly reach a stalemate with the racial alliance and even have a chance of winning will we join in."
"On the contrary, if you collapse at the first touch, then even if our Yin soldiers go up, I'm afraid it will be of little use, right?" Wuying laughed.
Qiao Bushi, Mimi, and the others were not entirely satisfied with what Wuying said, but they had to admit that Wuying made sense. As the leader of the tribal alliance, the Hu tribe was naturally powerful. If they couldn't stop them, they could only pray for good fortune. The underworld soldiers would only choose to break through the weak points of the tribal alliance.
"So, our Shu tribe and your Mao tribe can only form an alliance for the time being?" Qiao Bushi thought for a moment after hearing this and smiled helplessly at Mimi.
The Shu people border the Liang and Yi peoples, and are separated from the Mao people by the sea. According to Wuying, the Shu people are the most likely to be the first to support the Mao people.
After all, among the various ethnic groups in Dongchuan, only the Shu tribe is closest to the Mao tribe. The Yi and Liang tribes have to pass through the Shu tribe to reach the Mao tribe. The Liang tribe's attitude is not yet clear, but the Liang tribe and the Shu tribe have a military alliance. Qiao Bushi still doesn't quite believe that the Liang tribe would blatantly break the agreement.
"Yes, these two old rivals who have been at odds for so many years are finally going to join forces against each other." Mimi sighed and nodded, looking quite emotional.
"I'll also trouble Lord Yue to spread the word that all the fleeing forces you've gathered across the various continents of the Holy Realm can be relocated to the Mao Clan. I also ask the Heavenly Court and the Underworld to arrange for experts to enter the Mao Clan as soon as possible, so as to facilitate the coordination of all forces to jointly resist the tribal alliance," Mimi added.
Qiao Bushi shook his head. He had no choice. The tribal alliance was pressing him too hard. Just as Wang Yao said, he wanted to live in peace but couldn't. After all, Qianqiu died in his Shu tribe's cheese city. All the other tribes present could deny it, but his Shu tribe couldn't get away with it.
The meeting ended hastily. Qiao Bushi didn't want to offend the Heavenly Court or the Clan Alliance, so he could only take a compromise approach: shifting the blame onto Wang Yao while letting Wang Yao go on his own. He could only hope that Qianmian wouldn't push him too hard.
After all, Qiao Bushi was unwilling for the Shu tribe to join the tribal alliance and become the vanguard of the tribal alliance to conquer the Dongchuan continent. Therefore, relatively speaking, the Shu tribe would not be in too dire a situation when resisting the tribal alliance because of the surrounding Mao tribe, Liang tribe and other tribes as a shield.
Wang Yao's next task was naturally to rush back to the Yi tribe, first to help Commander Lang subdue the Zhanghuang tribe, and then to send envoys to the Jiu tribe and the Suigu tribe to establish defenses in the southern part of the Dongchuan continent to prevent the tribal alliance from attacking Dongchuan from the southern wilderness.
No one made things difficult for Liang tribe ambassador Luo Nairong and Princess Qinghe, who did not express their opinions at the meeting. Qiao Bushi only instructed Luo Nairong to make sure Princess Qinghe was safely returned to Liang tribe. As for Liang tribe's attitude, Qiao Bushi still hoped to communicate directly with Qing Ning.
Qiao Bushi's primary task at present is still to try to avoid going to war with the tribal alliance. Therefore, whether the Liang tribe is wholeheartedly on the side of the tribal alliance or remains neutral, there are many things that he and Qing Ning can coordinate.
As for Shadowless and the two Ghost Kings, Unicorn and Gale, they were invited to remain in the Shu Clan. Qiao Bushi arranged for his subordinates to establish an organization specifically responsible for communication with the Netherworld Ghosts. After all, if they were to truly turn against the clan alliance, the Netherworld army would undoubtedly be an indispensable force.
The Netherworld Ghosts are adept at concealing their whereabouts in the Holy Realm, making them unlikely to attract the attention of the tribal alliance. Therefore, leaving the Netherworld Ghosts behind is tantamount to leaving the Shu tribe with a way out.
The three Shadowless Ones had already received orders from King Yama to stay behind in the Shu tribe, so they didn't object to Qiao Bushi's decision. However, they insisted on their freedom of movement and politely declined the Shu tribe's offer to arrange food and lodging for them, in case the Shu tribe turned against them and used them to curry favor with the tribal alliance.
Finally, Mimi asked the old monk to escort Luo Nairong and Qinghe back to the embassy, which was basically to keep an eye on them and prevent Qinghe from saying anything inappropriate. Wang Yao, after saying goodbye to Qiao Bushi, insisted on returning to the embassy district with Mimi.
“Ambassador Mimi, I can understand the attitudes of the Shu and Liang tribes now, but I still have some doubts about your Mao tribe.”
Mimi and the others used magic when they came over and did not take a car. They were too lazy to cast a spell again when they returned. Mimi notified the embassy, and the group slowly walked away from the guesthouse, waiting for the embassy car to pick them up. Wang Yao walked beside Mimi and whispered.
"What's so hard to understand? Didn't I say that since we're stuck in a difficult situation, we might as well fight the tiger to survive?" Mimi was very fat, and he walked extremely slowly, but his reactions were anything but slow.
“However, I don’t believe that you asked us to steal that treasure to break with the tribal alliance,” Wang Yao said with a smile.
Mimi's expression changed. She glanced at Miyun beside her, and Miyun shook her head slightly at her. Only then did Mimi's expression soften a little.
"Isn't this all because of you, Lord Yue Lao? You killed so many lives in one go. Even if my Mao clan wanted to stay out of it, there's nothing we can do now," Mimi said.
