The war on the front line ended very quickly. It seemed as if the Suicheng army had just taken a picnic with their catapults. They returned directly to Suicheng without throwing a single stone.
After Ying Wuji retreated, the three cities that had been captured were all returned. Because the city chain had not been formed, continuing to defend the city would mean being attacked from both sides.
Therefore, they had no attachment to the city that they had captured by surprise attack. Nothing was left behind except the ruins.
Back and forth.
Except for the fact that the Flame King was also dealt with, there seems to be no change.
However, the Yan army no longer had any intention of continuing to fight.
Dissatisfaction with Ji Dong had already begun to brew in the military camp, and Li Chu sent an envoy to offer royal family hostages in exchange for the alliance's promise not to go to war with Li Chu within three years.
Ji Dong was unwilling to accept this.
But I can only agree.
The alliance has many internal troubles. Li Chu has not made any excessive demands except for a three-year ceasefire. If they insist on fighting, even the most resolute royal family of the Yan Kingdom in the alliance will become disloyal, and then the alliance will really fall apart!
Over a three-year period, Li Chu returned the hostages one after another and signed this agreement, which at least stabilized the alliance.
then.
The truce came unexpectedly.
The massive all-out war suddenly died down.
Chu State.
After the National Defense Army returned, Mi Duo held a grand banquet.
After the banquet.
The General's Mansion held another small celebration banquet.
At the banquet.
Mi Xingli took a sip of wine and said with some regret: "I feel like we can propose even more outrageous conditions."
“No need!”
Ying Wuji looked disdainful: "Whatever the alliance has, we have in Chu. What the alliance doesn't have, we have in Chu. If you ask him for key cities, he will definitely not agree. If you ask him for money, do you care about the money in his pocket?"
Mi Xingli pursed her lips and said with a smile: "That's right!"
In fact, thinking back, no matter Li Chu or Ying Wuji, their strategies can be summed up in two words: development.
Before the State of Li was divided into three parts, it was like this towards the Wei and Han families. After the division into three parts, it was also like this towards the outside world. Now the State of Chu has also gone down the old path of development.
Effect.
It is truly outstanding.
Over the years, the State of Chu had only fought two battles of moderate size, and the State of Li had only fired a few rounds of artillery fire. However, the benefits gained from Yan and Qi were no less than those from winning battles. In fact, the gains from Yan and Qi were just a bonus, and the development of internal national strength was the big deal.
Even though it was at a slight disadvantage overall this time, the State of Chu still deployed a million-strong army.
This would have been unthinkable in the past.
Moreover, this time they were facing a large army from Wu, Yan, Yan and Qi. It was a miracle that they could stop it.
"General Nangong! This cup is for you and your sister!"
Mi Xingli smiled and filled the Nangong siblings' glasses with wine, clinked them solemnly, and then drank them all in one gulp.
This time I am truly grateful.
She knew Ying Wuji's plan from beginning to end, and knew that this was a gamble. The winner depended on Nangong Yan. If she didn't win the gamble, all her arrangements would be in vain. She could only confront the alliance head-on, or pay a considerable price and ask the countries of Li and Wei to take action.
Fortunately, the bet won.
The brother and sister led 3,000 direct troops of the Nangong family to attack the capital of King Yan.
Li Caitan's perfect Hunyuan true Qi of that heavenly level contained the original true Qi of royal families of various countries. Zhao Ning had extracted a trace of it, and he and Ying Wuji had also extracted a trace of it. After Ying Wuque was crushed to pieces at the Sword Immortal Conference, all of it was extracted.
Even Ying Wuji did not dare to face this ultimate version of Hunyuan Qi easily.
Combined with Nangong Yan's special physique, the army's destructive power can be extremely amazing.
Mi Xingli values Nangong Yan very much.
Putting aside her personal strength, Nangong Yan is now a powerful weapon on the battlefield that is no less powerful than Ying Wuji.
However, at the celebration banquet for the entire army, Mi Duo proposed to reward Nangong Yan, but was rejected by Nangong Yan. She said that if there was an army attacking the State of Chu, she could help, but the rest of the time she just wanted to practice at home. She didn't want any titles, no money.
"Thank you, lady!"
After the Nangong brother and sister clinked their glasses, they drank the wine in their glasses.
After returning from the battlefield, the brother and sister didn't talk much. Perhaps the events of the past years left too many shadows on them.
But my mental state has improved a lot. As long as I'm alive, there is nothing I can't overcome.
"Why are you two so silent?"
Ying Wuji laughed and scolded, but did not make things difficult for them. Nangong Yu had been an autistic person for the past ten years. Although Nangong Yan had been cured by her classmates at Hongchen Academy for ten years, she was actually not very talkative. Apart from Ji Dong, few people could talk to her.
But he is a nice person.
Use the family fortune to gamble with her.
In the end she didn't let me lose.
To be honest.
Before the market opened, Ying Wuji was not very confident, because Nangong Yan's original soul had been replaced, and he had nothing to threaten Nangong Yan with.
But he still felt that he had a better chance of winning. First, after staying in the strange mirror for ten years, Nangong Yan's emotions became more and more stable. It was probably because of this that her reflection in the mirror was suspected by Ji Dong.
Second, most of the questions I set are subjective. If you don’t have a genuine recognition of your own ideas, it is impossible to get such a high score.
Third, he had tested Nangong Yan many times and knew very well that she truly felt guilty towards Nangong Yu.
Fourth, and most importantly, Ji Dong’s method of training black-armored warriors was indeed too inhumane.
With these four points, Ying Wuji felt that he should win.
