The day after Ye Fan and Wu Yuanjia discussed controlling the capital, the atmosphere in the Shenjiabao Hall was unprecedentedly solemn:
"Report, during the battle at Yanmenguan Arena, Xia Kunlun led the crowd and returned to a draw, gaining strong support from the Ninth Princess and others."
"Three hundred thousand foreign troops are ready to respond to Xia Kunlun's call to assist King Qin."
"Report, the Vulture war guide ambushing in the desert town went awry when ambushing the Xia Kunlun helicopter brigade."
"Xia Kunlun and the others were seriously injured, but they did not die on the spot."
"Reported that twelve branch presidents and thirty directors of the Tianxia Chamber of Commerce were besieged and died by the public."
"All seventy-two branches of the World Chamber of Commerce will be destroyed and burned."
"More than 3,000 members were injured, and the financial loss exceeded 10 billion."
"Based on the news, the key members of the Ironwood family and their nephews fled overseas with their money."
"A group of allies declared their separation from the Ironwood Family and immediately seized the assets of the World Chamber of Commerce."
"Tiannan Province's one hundred thousand soldiers are terrified!"
"Mingjiang's 100,000-strong army ran away overnight with more than 30,000 people!"
"Xue Wuzong and Xue Karenyou announced their response to King Xia Kunlun Qin and sent 20,000 troops to march towards Mingjiang!"
"Xia Kunlun woke up from surgery at seven o'clock this morning..."
Bad news poured in one after another like thunder, and then struck hard on the heads of Temujin, Shen Qiye and others.
When they received the information yesterday, Temujin and the others did not want to believe it, thinking that Xia Kunlun was playing a deception.
They also determined that the Ninth Princess and Xiong Potian were professional actors hired by Xia Kunlun.
After all, in Temujin's view, no matter how awesome Xia Kunlun is, there is no way he can fight against Xiong Potian and the others.
But now that they have received the official announcement stamped by the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms, and the Ninth Princess refused to communicate, everyone's luck has been completely shattered.
One person can change the destiny of the country, Xia Kunlun did it.
This also means that Temujin and Shen Qiye will be unlucky.
"What to do?
What to do?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was heavy and everyone was dejected, Xia Qiuye slammed the table, stood up and shouted:
"What are you doing with all these depressed faces?"
"Didn't Xia Kunlun win the ring battle and borrow 300,000 foreign troops?"
"We are not bad now. Mingjiang's army, Tiannan Province's army and Guangcheng's army total 400,000."
"Even if you exclude some deserters and waste, we still have 300,000 elites."
"Three hundred thousand elites, plus 300 fighter planes, 3,000 battle tanks, and 8,000 battle cannons, it is still the most powerful team in Xia Di."
"Concubine Wei, Sun Dongliang, Slaughter Dragon Hall and Yanmen Pass, all of them have some fighting ability. Together they only have 200,000 soldiers."
"Add Xue Wuzong and those wallflowers to them, and Xia Kunlun can kill 250,000 people in his hands."
"Three hundred thousand versus two hundred and fifty thousand, I have the advantage; with weapons and equipment, we can even crush Xia Kunlun."
"In terms of territory and population, we still control 70%, and we have enough manpower and material resources to back it up."
"In this battle, if we don't play dirty tricks or falsehoods, and show our strength, we can deal with Xia Kunlun ten times or eight times."
Xia Qiuye's voice echoed throughout the hall, trying to boost everyone's morale.
All the soldiers nodded upon hearing this, feeling that their side did still have the advantage.
But Shen Chuge, who was sitting at the back, smiled coldly:
"Xia Kunlun and his other soldiers are united and the people want what they want, but we all have our own agendas and still make people fearful."
"Thirty thousand people ran away last night, and twenty thousand people rebelled today. How many people will be left in a week?"
"What's the use of having a lot of territory? If you don't have elite soldiers, how can you protect it?"
"The population is indeed large, but the people are all supporting Xia Kunlun now. It would be good if they don't kill us. It would be naive to try to recruit them into adulthood."
"To take a step back, even if our combat effectiveness is the same as Xia Kunlun's, we still have a deep territory and a huge population."
"These 300,000 foreign troops who are not at the same latitude, we use hammers to fight with them?"
"If we start a war purely on our own, we can hold out for two or three months. If 300,000 foreign troops intervene, we can hold on for a week."
Shen Chuge mercilessly attacked his mother, and at the same time pointed out the trump card in Xia Kunlun's hand.
After hearing Shen Chuge's words, everyone looked sad again and became pessimistic about the future.
Xia Qiuye was so angry that she scolded her daughter with a straight face:
"Shi Nizi, are you fascinated by Ye A Niu?
Otherwise, how could you only boost others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige?"
"Let me tell you, Ye Aniu is a foreign traitor who has no place on the stage and is punished by everyone."
"The whole country is in such chaos, which is inseparable from the fact that he and Ye Tang supported Xia Kunlun."
"If he hadn't been secretly supporting Xia Kunlun, Xia Kunlun would have died in Hengcheng, and the Dragon Slaying Palace would have fallen apart long ago."
"Our current difficult situation and alienation are caused by Ye Aniu fanning the flames and sowing dissension."
"Coupled with Inpo's serious injury, the disappearance of Chief Xia, and the violent death of Dr. Huang Pu, Ye Aniu is the public enemy of the entire country."
"Don't even think about marrying him in your life."
"And no matter whether he is in the Dragon Slaying Hall or not, Ye Aniu will never be able to get on the stage."
Xia Qiuye poured out all her anger towards Ye Fan and reminded Shen Chuge not to think about Ye Aniu obsessively.
When the two sides broke up at Wangbei Tea House, they were destined to be incompatible.
At this time, Shen Qiye, who had been silent all this time, waved his hand to stop Shen Chuge from speaking, and then his voice dropped:
"Okay, mother and daughter, stop arguing. Now is not the time to vent your emotions. The top priority is to stabilize the situation."
"Master Tiemu, are you still unable to contact the Ninth Princess?"
"Didn't she need to give you an explanation during the battle at Yanmenguan Arena?"
"Does she, Xiang Liancheng and others have a deeper conspiracy, or are they really teaming up with Xia Kunlun to deal with us?"
Shen Qiye looked at Temujin: "The attitude of the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces must be clear, otherwise we will be too passive."
They all thought that Xia Kunlun would definitely die in the ring battle, but the result was that Xia Kunlun's reputation reached its peak.
Before Temujin could speak, Xia Qiuye took up the topic again:
"You don't even need to ask. If the Ninth Princess refuses to communicate, it means that she has betrayed Master Tiemu."
"If my guess is correct, Ninth Princess and the others must have secretly signed an agreement with Xia Kunlun to collect more than ten times the profit in the future."
"Otherwise, Ninth Princess and the others would not have rebelled against him and stabbed Master Tiemu mercilessly."
"This Xia Kunlun has such a good reputation, but I never expected that he is also a villain."
"For the sake of victory and to reverse the situation, it is too despicable and shameless to betray so many national interests."
"It's a pity that the Vulture Combat Guide prepared by Mr. Ironwood lost its accuracy and failed to kill him."
Xia Qiuye's face showed a hint of regret, and she was full of resentment towards Xia Kunlun's comeback.
If it weren't for Tulong Palace and others causing trouble, the Shen family would be able to control half of the country. Why would people be so panic-stricken now?
Temujin squeezed out a smile when he heard this and looked at Shen Qiye and slowly spoke:
"Madam, your guess is right. I just received the news that Xia Kunlun has given the Ninth Princess and the others enough benefits."
"Xia Kunlun promised the Ninth Princess and the others that as long as he wins the battle in the arena, he will borrow 300,000 troops from King Qin to kill me or drive me away."
"After he takes charge of the Xia Kingdom in the future, he will hand over all the mineral mining rights, railway and highway construction rights to the three families of the Nine Princesses."
"At the same time, Xia Kunlun also promised that Yanmen Pass, Tianbei Province, and Tianxi Province will be handed over to the three families of the Nine Princesses."
"Under such great temptation, the Ninth Princess betrayed me."
In order to tie up and stimulate Shen Qiye, Temujin made up a random story and accused Xia Kunlun of giving away all the benefits of the Shen family.
When things have developed to this point, Temujin's attention to Shen Qiye has plummeted, but there are too few people available to him now.
The Iron Wood soldiers were in panic, the World Chamber of Commerce was paralyzed, Tang Beixuan disappeared after destroying the war guide, and even the old man in black who had saved him lost contact.
Temujin felt an inexplicable feeling of powerlessness in his heart.
It's just that he is unwilling and cannot easily give up Xiamen's fundamentals. Even if there is only 1% hope, he must work 100%.
Therefore, Temujin should try his best to push Shen Qiye to the front to fight.
Sure enough, Xia Qiuye's face changed drastically: "Doesn't this mean that all the Shen family's territory was sold to Xia Kunlun?"
"almost."
Temujin coughed and continued to stimulate Shen Qiye's nerves:
"Xia Kunlun and the Ninth Princess succeeded in their work, and the whole north, west and Yanmen Pass were occupied by outsiders."
"Even if the Shen family surrenders to Xia Kunlun now, you will not be able to protect your territory and interests."
He added: "Xia Kunlun generously gave away the Shen family's assets."
When Xia Qiuye heard this, his eyebrows stood up instantly, he slapped the table and shouted:
"Xia Kunlun wants to massacre us, and Ninth Princess and the others want to rob us, so let's fight!"
"Although the Shen family has a large territory and many benefits, none of it is superfluous."
"Xia Kunlun can borrow troops, we can also borrow troops, Master Tiemu can borrow troops from Rui!"
She hummed: "We will win this battle!"
All the soldiers were furious, waving their fists and shouting: "We must win, we must win, we must win!"
A word that wakes up the dreamer!
Temujin sat up straight: "What Mrs. Shen said is true. We also have Rui Guo and a group of allies."
"I will call my father now and ask him to ask the Swiss royal family to intervene."
His breathing was slightly rapid, and there was the last glimmer of hope in his eyes:
"With them suppressing the Ninth Princess and the three families, and lending me a special force, Xia Kunlun won't have anything to worry about..."
