Gao Nian didn't speak, he felt unhappy, and there was nothing he could do to Long Chen.
Last time in the Sifang Building, Long Chen actually did not fall behind in a two-on-one fight. If it were a one-on-one fight...
Niu Yang said: "We only stated the requirements this time, not the conditions. It was expected that Long Chengen would not buy it."
"As for what conditions to offer, let Tian Liang negotiate."
Long Chen has recovered, and Xixia and Nanliang have also been suppressed. It is unrealistic to threaten them with red lips and white teeth.
"Tian Liang is just a newly promoted hall master. What kind of talk can he come up with? It's better for us to go."
Ji Ba nodded and said: "The second elder is right. Tian Liang is not qualified enough and he dare not say some things. Why don't the two elders go and put pressure on Long Chengen."
Two elders of Tianxiahui are here in person, which is more useful than having one hall director.
Niu Yang nodded and said, "Then let's take a trip."
The two elders immediately packed up their things and headed to Jade Buddha Pass.
....
Linjiang City.
An urgent report was delivered to the Commander's Mansion. The Empress was discussing the defense of Linjiang City with Gongsun Ming and Yingfeng.
"Your Majesty, Dazhu Kingdom has sent an urgent battle report from Jade Buddha Pass."
Yingfeng immediately took it and presented it to the empress.
After opening the emergency report and reading it, the Empress said happily: "I knew he had a solution for this Long Cheng'en."
The urgent report was handed to Yingfeng and Gongsun Ming. They read it and exclaimed: "Dazhu Kingdom is really a stroke of genius. They actually used five hundred cavalry to sweep through the hinterland of Xixia and burned Panhe Palace. Shi Le was going to be furious.
Already."
The empress smiled and said: "Chiyan Temple killed 50,000 enemies, and Zhenguo Temple raided and killed another 30,000. Xixia should be shocked."
"Zhenguo Temple was occupied by us, and the fortress in the east of Xixia was lost. From now on, we can only defend passively."
When Yingfeng saw the end, he said angrily: "The Tianxiahui is too overbearing, why should we withdraw from Zhenguo Temple!"
The empress sneered and said: "The world will regard itself as the uncrowned king, and everyone in the world will be at his mercy. Why is it strange that we withdraw from Zhenguo Temple?"
Gongsun Ming said angrily: "This war was originally provoked by the world. We lost troops and generals, wasted money and food, but in the end we were asked to retreat. This is absolutely impossible!"
Gongsun Ming and Yingfeng were both very angry and unwilling to leave Zhenguo Temple.
The empress said calmly: "Don't be so angry. The matter is still under negotiation. I believe Long Chengen can get a good price."
Yingfeng said in surprise: "What do you mean, Your Majesty, to withdraw from Zhenguo Temple?"
The empress smiled and said: "Let Long Chengen make his own decision and draw up the decree. I give him full authority to handle it."
Yingfeng secretly thought it was a pity and immediately drafted an imperial edict and sent it to Jade Buddha Pass.
....
Nanliang, Jinling.
Yu Fuguo hurried into the palace with a secret report. When he arrived at the Imperial Garden, Li Chengdao was discussing matters with Xuan Jizi.
"Your Majesty, the latest battle report at Jade Buddha Pass."
Li Chengdao took it and looked at it with Xuan Jizi, with a look of concentration on his face.
"This Long Chengen is so brave!"
Xuanjizi was shocked.
Li Chengdao looked at the pond full of blooming lotus flowers, feeling very depressed.
"Five hundred people dared to break into the hinterland of Xixia, led Shi Le's army of more than 200,000 in a wide circle, and finally burned down the palace, creating a fighting opportunity for Jade Buddha Pass, and succeeded with one blow!"
"Taoist Master, if Long Chengen does this to Nanliang, can we catch him?"
Xuan Jizi was silent for a moment and said: "It's different. The key to Long Chengen's move is the barbarian surprise attack, forcing Shi Le's army to return to defense."
To the north of Nanliang is the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and to the northwest is Xixia. There are no strong enemies in other directions, and Long Chen has no room for maneuver.
Li Chengdao smiled and did not continue to ask.
Xuanjizi didn't answer directly. In fact, he just didn't want to answer.
It is true that there are no strong enemies around Nanliang, but if Long Chen really takes action, he will definitely have other tricks.
"The defeat of Xixia has been decided, we can withdraw our troops."
Li Chengdao sighed in disappointment.
Xuan Jizi said: "Shi Le's army is still confronting each other. Should we hold on a little longer? At least we can hold the empress back."
Li Chengdao was a little hesitant. The army was facing each other, and he was consuming too much money and food every day, which he couldn't bear.
Yu Fuguo said: "Your Majesty, I have some news, but I don't know if it is true."
Li Chengdao looked at Yu Fuguo with cold eyes, and Yu Fuguo immediately shut up.
You should not tell news that you are not sure is true!
"It doesn't hurt to have a listen."
Xuanjizi said with a smile.
Yu Fuguo didn't dare to say, so Li Chengdao said coldly: "Just tell me."
Yu Fuguo paid his respects and said, "News came back from Xingqing City that Kong Ji had secret talks with Situ Jing and wanted to ask the Tianxia Council to mediate a truce."
Xuanjizi nodded slightly and said: "Xixia and Tianxiahui have a good relationship, so it is reasonable to ask them to mediate."
Li Chengdao remained silent, feeling a little regretful.
When Hua Yiyi and the elders of the Tianxiahui asked for a meeting, he thought that the Tianxiahui wanted to take the opportunity to negotiate terms, but Li Chengdao refused.
Afterwards, he learned that Tianxiahui planned to support the siege of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty unconditionally. Li Chengdao asked Li Jiye to find Hua Yiyi, but Hua Yiyi ignored him.
Because Tianxiahui and Long Chen have reconciled.
Yu Fuguo continued: "No, I want to ask the Tianxiahui to come forward and force Long Chengen to withdraw from Zhenguo Temple."
hiss...
Li Chengdao felt incredible and said: "How is it possible? Zhenguo Temple is the east gate of Xixia, and Long Chengen occupies an important position. How can he give in easily?"
Yu Fuguo said, "That's why I don't dare to confirm the authenticity of this matter."
Xuanjizi thought for a long time and said: "Pindao thinks this may be true. If Xixia loses the Zhenguo Temple, the east gate will be wide open, and it will always be under the threat of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and the national power will be greatly reduced."
"The balance of power in the world has changed. The world will not allow such a thing to happen, and will definitely help Xixia to ask for the Zhenguo Temple."
"So, now Long Chengen and Tianxiahui are bargaining."
After listening to Xuanjizi's analysis, Li Chengdao nodded and said: "Yes, the two sides are bargaining. I should help a bunch of Shi Le."
"Zhong Gui!"
Eunuch Zhong Gui came over, and Li Chengdao ordered: "Send orders to the front line to prepare for another attack and hold off the empress!"
Zhong Gui immediately sent an order to the front lines.
....
Zhenguo Temple.
Long Chen and Di Lingyi were walking on the construction site. Soldiers were rebuilding the Zhenguo Temple, but the speed was relatively slow.
"Didn't you say that Zhenguo Temple might be returned? Why rebuild it for them?"
Di Lingyi didn't understand.
According to Emperor Lingyi's temper, all the Zhenguo Temple should be destroyed, especially the fortress, leaving Xixia in ruins.
"I am always kind in my work. Since I plan to return it to them, I will return it intact."
Long Chen looked like a good old man.
Di Lingyi complained: "The weasel is giving New Year greetings to the rooster. The more kind you look, the bigger the problem will be."
Long Chen smiled and said: "Then may I ask, princess, what am I planning this time?"
Di Lingyi shook his head: "Who knows what you are thinking."
Long Chen came up with a smile, pressed his ear against Di Lingyi's earlobe and said, "I'm thinking about how to get you at night..."
Emperor Lingyi's face turned red and he cursed: "Shameless, believe it or not, I will kill you!"
Zhang Qian rode over and said, "My lord, princess, there is a letter from General Wu, saying that the elder of the Tianxiahui has arrived at Jade Buddha Pass and wants to discuss the matter of Zhenguo Temple with your lord."
