As soon as Elder Yuanshou finished speaking, some elders echoed his words.
But soon, the voices of agreement became quieter... because everyone suddenly discovered that the number of people who agreed this time was much smaller.
To be more precise, those who came to praise were all the elders of the Guyuan Zhao family, while those from the Luo family and the neutral camp were uncharacteristically silent.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Qiu Changtian, as if they were waiting to see how this Master Chang Geng would make a critical comment.
"Although this plan is good, it has its flaws." Qiu Changtian asked bluntly, "What if the ambush fails?"
Zhao Jinghong was stunned for a moment and quickly asked:
"According to your plan, what if the siege of Tiecheng Mountain fails?"
"What is failure?" Qiu Changtian smiled faintly, "Every strategy must be calculated until the goal is achieved."
"The purpose of besieging Tiecheng Mountain is to prevent the army from moving northward and cut off our connection with Guanzhong. If it is considered a failure, it will only be that we are vulnerable to Tiecheng Mountain and cannot prevent it from taking over Longshan."
"If it really gets to that point, it seems that what we need to worry about is not the safety of Guanzhong, but the survival of our sect itself."
The elders nodded one after another: If we really want to besiege Tiecheng Mountain, with the strength of the Kunlun Taiqing Sect, it is almost impossible to fail.
The only question is how far Tiechengshan needs to be forced.
If Shura Dao is to be uprooted, the losses on Kunlun's side will definitely be staggering.
But if we can "surround but not attack", and all the monks in the past can come back intact, then it will undoubtedly be the best choice.
Of course Zhao Jinghong understood this and continued:
"Surrounding without attacking may be a good idea, but will the Demon Cult really act as you predict?"
"Master Chang Geng, if the Demon Cult marches out from Tiecheng Mountain with a large army, and if you intercept it, you will suffer heavy casualties. If you don't intercept it, you will sit back and watch the other side cut off the connection with Guanzhong. What can you do?"
"Master Yunhong." Qiu Changtian said lightly, "What if we really encounter that kind of danger and don't intercept it and the other party raises a large army to go to Kunlun?"
Zhao Jinghong was speechless.
"If the Demon Sect is really as you said, it wants to destroy both the jade and the stone." Qiu Changtian continued calmly, "Then there is only one battle in Kunlun, and there is no other choice."
"Well said!" Headmaster Ziwei suddenly said loudly and appreciatively, "The Kunlun Taiqing Sect only cherishes the lives of the monks and does not want to start a war lightly, but it does not mean that it does not want to fight and does not dare to fight!"
As soon as these words came out, there was no doubt that they were aimed at some of the previous elders, who had accused Qiu Changtian of being "indecisive" and "kind but not capable of fighting". Elder Jiu Ce sighed and said:
"What Chang Geng said is true. If the Demon Sect wants to send troops from Tiecheng Mountain, there will be a battle sooner or later."
"Instead of passively waiting for them to take action, it would be better for us to surround Tiecheng Mountain first and take the initiative in our own hands."
Elder Yuanshou next to him did not expect that he would speak up to help Qiu Changtian, and his expression suddenly changed.
Oops, the Luo family is going to switch to the opposite camp!
As Elder Jiu Ce took the lead in speaking, the monks in the Luo family camp also joined in, and the support for Qiu Changtian suddenly increased.
Senior sister Luo Baiyuan was also among them. When the Luo family supported Zhao Jinghong before, they asked her to help question Qiu Changtian, but she kept silent.
At this time, the Luo family turned to support Qiu Changtian, and she enthusiastically supported her. Unfortunately, she was too stupid and couldn't think of any good words. She could only say "yes, yes," "right, right," and "that's right."
cycle.
The opinions in the main hall of Kunlun soon became one-sided, and they unanimously supported Qiu Changtian's two-front strategy of sending troops to maintain the defense of Guanzhong while suppressing Tiecheng Mountain.
Headmaster Ziwei was calm and composed, but in her heart she was extremely proud, thinking to herself that even if the Luo family wanted to join forces with the Zhao family, they still wanted to see if Zhao Jinghong had the ability to compete with Qiu Changtian!
There is a huge gap between the two sides in terms of intelligence and ability. You chose to listen to Zhao Jinghong's opinion, but how many people were killed in Beimang Mountain?
It’s not too late to abandon darkness and turn to light! Hahahahaha...
Qiu Changtian didn't know that the master was laughing wildly in his heart, but he just said respectfully:
"If you still have a dispute, please ask the master to make a decision."
"Well." Ziwei Headmaster Lao Shen was here and said leisurely, "Yunhong, you don't support sending troops to Tiecheng Mountain, do you?"
Zhao Jinghong suddenly cursed in his heart.
He just proposed the plan of setting up an ambush in Longshan to restore his prestige. Since Qiu Changtian didn't agree with this plan, he casually argued with the other party and made some minor faults. Essentially, it was just to save face.
Now that everyone supports this policy, how could he, Master Yunhong, go against everyone and openly stand against so many elders?
Besides, with Zhao Jinghong's eyesight, he could naturally see that although the move of approaching Tiecheng Mountain was not very subtle, it was definitely no problem as a countermeasure.
The risk of two-front warfare is indeed very high, but the Demon Cult has taken the lead in adopting two-front warfare. Unless Kunlun abandons Guanzhong and retracts all its fingers into a fist, it will definitely have to divide its forces in the same way.
Thinking about Zhou Ding quickly in the sea of consciousness, Zhao Jinghong suddenly had an idea and said in the same respectful voice:
"Yun Hong has no objections, he just has some ideas."
"Since we are going to send troops to Tiecheng Mountain, why can't we propose to Shushan to jointly besiege Shura Road?"
When the elders suddenly heard the words, their eyes lit up.
Everyone had already discussed that if Shushan threatened the flanks, Shura Road would not be able to go north.
However, Shushan has been secretly competing with Kunlun. The last time it was besieged by the Demon Cult, it had not asked for help for a long time. Now, Kunlun is asked to turn to Shushan for help. This will be considered by the world as a sign of Kunlun's decline.
Zhao Jinghong’s statement undoubtedly provides another perspective:
Now Kunlun is not besieged by the Demon Cult, but has taken the initiative to teach Shura Tao. In this case, inviting Shushan over is not a request for help, but cooperation.
However, this strategy looks good, but are there any flaws in it that we didn't expect?
It’s not that everyone doesn’t trust you, Mr. Yun Hong, it’s just that you really scared me last time. In a simple surprise attack, seven out of ten people died, and they were all elites... Whose descendants can support you?
I can’t help but be so wasted!
When Zhao Jinghong saw everyone was silent and thought of the key, his throat suddenly became so angry that he almost vomited a mouthful of blood.
Just because of a mistake in co-writing, no one is willing to believe me now, right?
"What a plan!" Amidst the silence, Qiu Changtian took the lead in applauding, turned to Headmaster Ziwei and said, "Master, I think this plan is feasible."
"Since we are jointly attacking the Shura Dao, if the Qing Sect on Shushan Mountain takes into consideration the relationship with Kunlun, they will not only have to dispatch enough sword immortals, but they will also have to deal a heavy blow to the Shura Dao!"
Headmaster Ziwei instantly understood the deeper meaning of his words: Don’t you, Shushan, want to compete with me, Kunlun?
How about comparing who has killed more demon sect thieves?
"Yes." He nodded.
Looking at Zhao Jinghong again, Master Yunhong just stared blankly at Qiu Changtian, and gradually became silent.
