Chapter 906: The Dragon Xiao Kingdom surrenders to the Demon Realm
Long Zhantian's words made several people have a feeling of sudden enlightenment, but at the same time, they couldn't help but feel a deep regret.
As the most powerful country among the five kingdoms of the Immortal Realm, Long Xiao Kingdom is also the country with the most hope of unifying the outer heavens, because of that hope and foundation, Long Chengyuan's mood has become more urgent.
With this urgent desire, he has a demonic obstacle in his heart, and he only relies on means to do things, but ignores many more important things.
As a result, in the end, it became a bamboo basket for nothing, not only did it not unify the outer heavens, but it fell ahead of schedule, and Longxiao Kingdom was about to face the pain of annihilation.
After Long Haoyu was hit repeatedly, he had now become numb, and he thought for a while before he pretended to be calm and said:
"None of them will agree to form an alliance with us, and they don't want to really defeat us, they all want us to choose to surrender, man, do we really choose to surrender?"
"What good can we do by surrendering?"
Long Zhantian then replied:
"Surrender is like betting on treasure, the right choice is right, although you can't rule the world in the future, you can still live a rich and worry-free life, as long as the civil and military officials are really talented, they can continue to be officials in the court and serve the new court."
"Of course, if you choose the wrong one, then you will sink together, and there will probably never be a day to turn over!"
Long Haoyu didn't seem to have any opinions, and he then asked:
"Then in the eyes of the imperial grandfather, what choice should we make?"
Long Zhantian didn't answer directly, but looked at Yuwen Junxiong and Tang Yuansi and asked:
"What do you two think?"
After a moment's thought, Yuwen Toshio replied:
"On the battlefield, after all, strength is respected, the overall strength of the demon world is stronger than that of Longxiao Kingdom, if we add our refuge, we will definitely be able to win the final victory, and Mu Qianmei's foundation is too shallow after all, even if she has extraordinary wisdom and the support of the people, it will be difficult to go to the end."
"Therefore, Lao Chen suggested choosing the Demon Realm and choosing Qu Yunyang, the Emperor of the Heavens, to have a better chance of winning."
As soon as his words fell, Tang Yuansi spoke:
"The last general believes that although strength plays a vital role in the war, but it is not absolute, in history, there are many wars in which less wins more, and the weak defeat the strong, and Mu Qianmei is best at this kind of battle, the last general suggested that it should be better to consider the Xiyu Congress."
Yuwen Junxiong didn't expect Tang Yuansi to put forward an opinion contrary to his own, and after he pondered for a while, he retorted:
"The battlefield is not a ring, fighting a war is completely different from fighting in the ring, in the ring, she can take tricks and surprises, but it is difficult to do it on the battlefield."
"Fighting on the battlefield is a battle of thousands of troops, weapons, force, and numbers are the key to determining the victory or defeat of the war."
"It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, no matter how much she can use soldiers, her combat effectiveness is not as good as that of others, and in the end she can only end in failure."
"Think about it, there are a few real masters in the Xiyu Country, and how many masters are there in the Demon Realm, the two armies are facing each other, and the stronger side must have a greater hope of winning."
"The strength of the Demon Realm is already stronger than that of the Western Rain Country, if we join again, who else will be our opponent?"
"After we cooperate with the Demon Realm to defeat the Xiyu Kingdom, the Outer Heaven is such a vast world, the Demon Realm is not capable of completely dominating, and a large number of officials will be needed after all, and our civil and military officials will still be able to continue to be officials at that time."
Tang Yuansi didn't know how to overturn Yuwen Junxiong's words for a while, but he still insisted and said:
"No matter how powerful the Demon Realm is, I don't think they will be able to defeat Mu Qianmei in the end, even if we join, it won't change anything."
Yuwen Toshio immediately replied:
"How can such an important decision come from feelings? This decision will affect the fate of tens of millions of people, and we should rely on reason to analyze and make decisions. ”
Long Haoyu saw that they had their own opinions, and Yuwen Toshio's analysis seemed to be more convincing, however, he didn't decide immediately, but turned his head to look at Long Zhantian, wanting to hear his opinion.
Long Zhantian pondered for a long time before he said slowly:
"Although I admire Mu Qianmei's mind and intelligence, I am still more optimistic about Qu Yunyang than Qu Yunyang, who has thousands of years of life experience."
"War requires wisdom, but it also needs strength and experience, the strength of the Demon Realm army is stronger, and Qu Yunyang is more experienced, so they themselves have a great advantage, and now, after our people join, it will increase their strength even more, and Mu Qianmei's chances will become even smaller."
Tang Yuansi still said softly in a somewhat stubborn tone:
"Doesn't it mean that since ancient times, immortals and demons have not been separated, and as a person from the immortal world, they have to eliminate demons and defend the Dao? Why do you want to surrender them now and let them become the masters of the fairy world? ”
As a person who has just grown up, he has been taught since he was a child that he must resist the demon world and not let them invade the territory of the fairy world, but now he is ready to throw himself into the arms of the demon world, and he has an indescribable resistance in his heart.
Compared to the Demon Realm, he is more willing to join Mu Qianmei's Xiyu Country, although he was once defeated by Mu Qianmei, but in his heart, he admires Mu Qianmei very much.
And everyone is a member of the fairy world, and joining forces to resist the demon world is more in line with the concept he accepts.
Long Zhantian said leisurely:
"The so-called fairy world and the demon world don't have such obvious boundaries, but the demon world is more relaxed about the way of cultivation, and the rules are not as many as the fairy world, so their world seems to be freer, but it is also more chaotic."
"Of course, with the unification of the Demon Realm, they are also developing towards the model of our Immortal Realm, it can be said that they are learning from the way of our Immortal Realm to manage all the affairs of the Demon Realm, and the Demon Realm under the rule of Qu Yunyang is actually not much different from our Immortal Realm."
"A person who can dominate the demon world is naturally also a person with great talents, and his vision and pattern will not be worse than Mu Qianmei."
After discussing the matter here, the meaning was basically clear, and Long Haoyu immediately nodded and said:
"In that case, then let's choose Qu Yunyang to defect to the Demon Realm!"
After finishing speaking, he felt very unwilling, and he couldn't get over his face, he had just been an emperor for a few days, how could he join the army of the demon world? Moreover, when he arrives in the Demon Realm, what can he do?
So, he couldn't help frowning again, Long Zhantian understood his thoughts at a glance, and said:
"Our Longxiao Kingdom no longer exists at this point, Generalissimo Yuwen and General Tang can lead the army and civil and military officials of Longxiao Country to defect to the Demon Realm, and I, the guardian of Longxiao Kingdom, have also reached the time to leave."
"Your Majesty, just leave with me!"
Long Haoyu's face showed a deep expression of loss, and he nodded slowly.
The night passed, and early the next morning, Long Haoyu summoned all the civil and military generals in the city lord's mansion in Tianjing Mountain for the last time as the emperor to announce the decision of the surrender of the Longxiao Kingdom.
This decision surprised many people, there are actually not a few people who think the same as Tang Yuansi, and most people are actually more inclined to defect to the West Rain Country in their hearts, after all, the West Rain Country was once one of the five countries in the fairy world, and everyone is also in the same spirit, and they know each other better.
As for the demon world, they were all inexplicably resistant, and in the end, Long Haoyu repeated the reason that Yuwen Junxiong said before, and only then did he change some people's minds.
Of course, no matter what they thought, they couldn't change the current situation of Long Xiao Kingdom.
As if there was an arrangement in the dark, not long after Long Haoyu announced his retirement from the dynasty, news came from outside that the envoys of the Demon Realm had visited.
Long Haoyu did not go to meet him, but sent Yuwen Toshio to receive the visiting envoys, there was no surprise, the envoys of the demon world came to persuade them to surrender.
Long Xiao Guo had already made the decision to surrender to the Demon Realm, and naturally he did not resist, but since the Demon Realm sent people to persuade him to surrender, Yuwen Junxiong had the opportunity to put forward more conditions, so he won a lot of benefits for Long Xiao Kingdom.
After the two sides reached an agreement, Yuwen Toshio politely sent off the Demon Realm Emissary.
Early the next morning, Long Zhantian took Long Haoyu and a group of royal family members to secretly leave Tianjing Mountain, because he had surrendered to the Demon Realm, and he did not encounter any obstacles.
Here, after Qu Yunyang took over the surrender army of Longxiao Kingdom, he also temporarily stopped advancing, and he needed time to rectify these cities and arrange the surrender army.
When the news reached Yulan City, many people were surprised, and even shocked, there were still tens of millions of troops in Longxiao Kingdom, why did they suddenly surrender?
Even if they had to surrender, why would they choose the Demon Realm instead of the Western Rain Country?
Like many people in Longxiao Kingdom, the people on the side of Xiyu Country also subconsciously felt that Longxiao Kingdom, as a member of the Five Kingdoms of the Immortal Realm, should be closer to Xiyu Country, and if they want to surrender, they should also surrender to Xiyu Country, and then resist the invasion of the Demon Realm.
Only Mu Qianmei didn't seem surprised by this, and she summoned her ministers to discuss the matter at the Dragon King Palace.
After the ministers gradually calmed down from the shocked discussions, Mu Qianmei spoke:
"Long Xiaoguo made such a decision, in fact, it is also very understandable, the end of continuing to resist may be the annihilation of the whole army, since there is no point in resisting, they naturally prefer to surrender."
"And surrender is like betting on a treasure, they comprehensively evaluated the strength of us and the Demon Realm, no matter how you look at it, they feel that the strength of the Demon Realm is stronger and more likely to achieve the final victory, so they put their fate on the side of the Demon Realm."
"In their opinion, the Demon Realm is already stronger than us, and now that they have joined, of course, they have a better chance of winning, and the side that follows the victory will get more benefits."
Mu Qianmei's tone was very flat, as if she was stating a matter that had nothing to do with her, and the expression on her face was also very calm, as if this matter was just an insignificant matter for Xiyu Country.
For some reason, because of Mu Qianmei's performance, the ministers felt a lot more at ease, and quickly recovered from the shocked state.
