Chapter 412: Trade-offs and Losses [Third Update]
Chapter 412: Choosing Gains and Losses
It was noon, the hottest time of the day on the desert battlefield, and three huge fireballs in the sky were like the scorching sun, expanding to the maximum, baking the sand.
The sand is golden, and it melts when it encounters fire, and at this time, under the baking of the fireball, it has absorbed a lot of energy, and it seems to have reached the limit of its capacity, and it begins to release it to the outside.
The flames of the fireball and the heat of the sand were released at the same time, and the entire space was filled with white heat, like a huge steamer, but the energy contained in it was many times larger than the steamer.
Fortunately, Ling Changkong was sheltered by a large array at this time, otherwise if he was under such a baking, he would have exhausted his Xuan power in less than a moment, and he would be roasted to death in the desert.
Of course, there are no dead people in the tomb of the water god, and they don't really die here.
"Senior Sister Gu, what are we going to do next?"
At this time, somewhere in the city, in a soundproof magic array, Gu Mei, Luo Xin and the others sat cross-legged together, some of the Changqing Sect disciples asked Gu Mei, and the others also looked at Gu Mei.
However, Luo Xin and the others are not, they are mainly cooperating with Changqingmen to sit here at this time, and they are only playing a role as an observer.
"It's hot now, and whatever the next steps are, we'll talk about it later. Gu Mei pondered for a moment and said.
"Indeed, it is extremely hot outside now, and I think even the three sects of Chu Jian Sect will not be dispatched at this time. Ye Buyi nodded in agreement.
"Yes, that's true. The other Evergreen Sect disciples also nodded in agreement, and even Luo Xin and the others, who had been sitting silently, couldn't help but nod slightly, but none of them wanted to sneak attack the third city under the scorching sun now.
"Then what about after this period of time?" Ling Changkong also nodded slightly, then groaned a little, and asked Gu Mei.
"This really needs to be thought about. Gu Mei frowned lightly and said.
"Now that we've captured two cities, the other three forces may not know about it, but we can take advantage of that. Ye Buyi groaned.
"Now the three of them may have joined forces, and if they did, they would know that we had captured two cities. ”
"Yes, but since we let go of some of the Wanjiang Alliance, they should also guess that our main force is here, and after the scorching sun passes, they are likely to attack another city, and we had better reinforce it. ”
"They may also do the opposite, attacking the city we are in now. ”
......
The disciples of the Evergreen Sect began to make suggestions, and even Luo Xin and other disciples of the Red Moon Palace said two or three words from time to time, but most of them were still said by the disciples of the Evergreen Sect.
"What you said is good, but we don't know what the other party is doing, and this response, no matter how it is handled, is very passive. Listening to everyone's gossip and planning, Gu Mei frowned slightly.
"If we want to take the initiative, we can take the initiative to attack their city, but then our defense will be empty. Ye Buyi said.
Gu Mei listened, but she was silent.
"Senior Brother Ling, what can you do?" At this time, Gu Mei's eyes suddenly lit up, and she asked Ling Changkong.
"I also agree with Senior Brother Ye's words and take the initiative. Ling Changkong seemed to groan slightly, and then raised his head and said.
Seeing that Ling Changkong actually agreed with his plan, Ye Buyi couldn't help but be stunned, but then he hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, as if he was very proud.
"Take the initiative?" Gu Mei frowned.
"If we take the initiative to attack, our city will not be empty, what if it makes people turn around?" Although this city is under the name of Changqing Gate, but thirty percent of it is from the Red Moon Palace, and it is the only city in the Red Moon Palace, Luo Xin is naturally unwilling to give up like this, and said.
"Our city is indeed empty. Hearing Luo Xin's words, Ling Changkong nodded in agreement at first, but then changed his words and said: "However, if they really attack us, their city will also be empty, and we will greatly consume the number of the other party if we fight more and less, so not only does not lose a city, but also consumes a lot of people on the other side, and this transaction does not lose but earns." ”
"What if we don't attack our city and attack another city?" Xue Yupan's eyes flashed, and he suddenly asked Ling Changkong, as if he was humbly asking for advice.
"The result was the same, but in the end we lost another city. Regardless of whether Xue Yupan was humbly asking for advice, Ling Changkong replied after hearing his question.
"That's not possible, we must not lose that one, I suggest that we still reinforce the past, anyway, the other party can't save many people now, we will divide the number of people equally, there is absolutely no problem in holding the two cities. ”
Who knew that after Xue Yupan heard Ling Changkong's words, his face suddenly changed, and he immediately raised objections, and the other Evergreen Sect disciples also objected, after all, the previous one belonged to their Evergreen Gate, and if they were won by the other party, their Evergreen Gate would lose the most.
Compared with Xue Yupan and the others, Luo Xin and the others had a twinkle in their eyes, they didn't care how much the Changqing Gate lost, they only thought about seeking greater benefits for the Red Moon Palace, but according to the current situation, it was not possible to persuade Gu Mei to take the initiative.
Indeed, after hearing Ling Changkong's casual remarks just now, there were nine out of ten Changqing Sect disciples present, and even Ye Buyi, who had proposed to take the initiative before, also agreed.
"Indeed, if it is because of the capture of the third city, it is indeed worthless to give up the first city to others, but because of this, we can consume a lot of the opponent's numbers, and we may be able to occupy the three cities in the remaining day and a half, of course, as for how to choose, how to plan, we still need Senior Sister Gu to decide. ”
Ling Changkong nodded first, and then said so, in a light tone, as if he was just telling something that had nothing to do with him, and after he finished speaking, he shut up in recognition of each other.
Regarding his own situation, Ling Changkong still saw it relatively clearly, he could make suggestions, but he didn't have the ability to give orders, and because of the previous incident, Ye Buyi and the others were secretly worried about him in their hearts, and he was not afraid of being remembered, but he didn't want to cause any trouble for no reason.
......
While Ling Changkong was making the next plan on his side, on the other side, Chu Jianzong, Wanjiang League, and the Water Dragon Sect had already united, and they were also making the next plan.
"Now we know that the Evergreen Gate and the Red Moon Palace have occupied two cities, although most of their combat power is in the city where the Wanjiang Alliance is located, but the other city is also quite a bit according to the observation of friends of the Water Dragon Sect. ”
At this time, in a stone house, Chu Mo and the other Chu Sword Sect, the three men surnamed Ge, and the seven people of the Water Dragon Sect were all here, they were around a stone table, and there was a simple map on the stone table, and a disciple of the Chu Sword Sect was pointing to the map and saying to the others.
Listening to their words, they already knew that Ling Changkong and the others had occupied two cities, and it seemed that the Water Dragon Sect had been to another city before, and they were very clear about the combat power of Ling Changkong's side and two cities.
That Chu Sword Sect disciple looked around at everyone, his face became even more solemn, and said, "Now, what we have to decide is which city to attack next. ”
