MTL - After the Fairy Disappeared-Chapter 432 The Yang Conspiracy of the Northern Demon Kingdom

   As if feeling He Lingchuan's gaze, Zhong Shengguang turned his head and glanced at him, his gaze was like lightning.

  At this moment, the hall door opened again, and several officials and generals filed in, followed by a magician.

  Among them, Wen Daolun, He Lianchen, and General Nan Ke are all old faces that He Lingchuan recognizes.

   "Everyone is here." Zhong Shengguang nodded to the magician, who immediately took out a long-handled mirror and held it up high.

  The mirror handles and frames are all red gold, with a passion flower pattern, and two deep rubies are inlaid on the edge. The shape is exaggerated and gorgeous.

   But the frame is not an ordinary mirror, but an eyeball!

  Yes, a big yellow eyeball with a diameter of two feet, and vertical pupils like a crocodile or a cat.

   To be honest, such an eyeball is detached from the biological body and can still glance up, down, left, and right, which is quite annoying.

   Especially its eyes look very evil, especially when it looks at you.

  Goose bumps appeared on He Lingchuan's back.

   Fortunately, the big eyes only stared at him for less than a second, and then went to check the next person.

  After dozens of breaths of work, the eyeballs did not change, so the magician put them away and bowed to Zhong Shengguang: "The Dharma Eyes are all clean after the inspection."

  It was only then that He Lingchuan realized that the big eyeballs were used to check whether there was a magic weapon or supernatural power on everyone's body.

  Of course, if his little scouting spider is here, it probably won't be able to hide from the opponent's eyes.

  After the magician went out, He Lingchuan closed the door and blocked the door with his body.

  Zhong Shengguang pointed to the sand table: "This is the second closed-door meeting regarding the Xiluo Kingdom's relocation order. The seven people who attended the meeting last time agreed that we should not return to the east. Today we need to listen to more people's opinions."

  He Lingchuan was taken aback.

  It turned out that the news that the Xiluo Kingdom issued a relocation order was actually true?

  General Nan Ke immediately said: "I just came back from the west. Has the Qian'an Order been sent to Panlong City yet?"

   "Not yet." Zhong Shengguang shook his head, "As far as I know, the edict has not yet been issued, and the monarch is still wavering."

   "That's hesitation." General Nan Ke sneered, "Why is this news already being hyped up in the Panlong Wasteland, and who is spreading it? It should be caught and taught a lesson."

   Another human said: "It is a rumor to spread it without confirmation, and it must be punished as a crime of spreading rumors and bewitching."

  This is considered a felony in Panlong City, and if the circumstances are serious, the tongue must be cut out. The most feared thing in wartime is the shaken morale of the army and the people.

  He Lianchen waved his hand: "This news was brought in by a merchant, and it was spread four or five days ago. It is not ruled out that someone deliberately spread it, but we have not refuted the rumor until now, and there are many speculations among the people."

  The relocation order is still stuck in the hands of the monarch, but the merchants spread the news that the soldiers and civilians of Panlong City are about to return to the east. It is hard to say that no one is instigating it. Now Panlong City is also in a dilemma:

  If the rumors are refuted, in case the monarch really issues a relocation order, the rumors will come true, and the prestige of Zhong Shengguang and others will be damaged;

   If the rumors are not refuted, the rumors will spread and shake people's hearts.

  Everyone knows that the powerful combat power of Panlong City stems from the unity of the people. Once this foundation is shaken, the consequences will be disastrous.

  Zhong Shengguang nodded: "You all think we shouldn't go back east?"

  Another general stood up, and He Lingchuan vaguely knew that his name was Ling Chongshui. He pointed to the sand table and said, "Even if the Baling Kingdom opened the Jinxi Corridor to us, the journey back to the country would be hundreds of miles. Not to mention the rugged areas in the Jinxi Corridor, it is easy to ambush. Such a good opportunity, I don't believe that the **** grandchildren of Baling Kingdom won't be tempted! When the time comes, we'll take care of the old and the young, and it's really difficult to take care of each other, and we won't be able to exert our fighting power!"

  The Panlongcheng army's invincibility in the wasteland is mostly due to its ability to fight efficiently, coming and going like the wind, and attacking the enemy by surprise.

  If the entire city is moved eastward, and multiple cities are moved together, these millions of people will be exposed in the wilderness, and they will be targets of activity one by one. No matter how powerful the Panlong City army is, it will be difficult to protect them comprehensively.

  Baling and Xianyouguo have fought against Panlong City in the past ten years, and they have already forged a deep blood feud

  With this great opportunity, can they resist revenge?

  You try to make the rabbit not eat grass.

"If the monarch really issues a relocation order and we refuse to accept it, what will the residents of the entire wasteland think?" Another middle-aged scribe said, "There are at least 800,000 people in the entire Panlong Wasteland whose ancestral homeland is at least 800,000. In 2010, people have long been weary of war. Otherwise, the eastward relocation order that has not yet been issued would not have caused such a big shock. "

  He has dark skin and piercing eyes. He Lingchuan looks familiar to him.

  Where did you see it?

   "So in Master Zhao's opinion?"

  As soon as the surname was Zhao, He Lingchuan was shocked and remembered.

  There is only one high-level executive in Panlong City whose surname is Zhao, and that is Zhao Xianhe, the commander-in-chief!

  He Lingchuan killed his beloved son Zhao Rong under the Shenshenzhu not long ago. Moreover, this was Zhao Xianhe's order to kill relatives righteously and on his own initiative.

"The last time Xi Luo issued the relocation order to Panlong City, the result was not good. It directly caused us to lose 40,000 elites, 30,000 people, and Lord Jing. But this time the situation is different. The mother country encountered rebels. Attack, the country's capital is in danger, the northern demon country is willing to send reinforcements to assist the Xiluoting army to suppress the rebels in the Heshun area. In exchange, it will mediate the conflict between our country and Baling and Xianyou, that is, move back to the residents of Panlong, and make these people Give the land to the two countries on the opposite side."

"Does Mr. Zhao think that the conditions offered by the demon country are reasonable? These old monsters are fighting everywhere, lest the world will not be chaotic, how can they be kind to us?" General Nan Ke said coldly, "Besides, Panlong Wasteland It was originally our territory, so why should we hand it over to Baling and Xianyou?"

   "Who here doesn't know what you're talking about?" Zhao Xianhe said with a blank expression, "I'm just suggesting that we have to make two-handed preparations. What should we do if we have to relocate?"

  Ling Chongshui folded his arms in front of him: "If we don't move, what can they do to us?"

   "The will of the people cannot be violated. If we don't move, we must analyze the interests and persuade the people, otherwise how will we gain a foothold in the future?" Zhao Xianhe shook his head, "Perhaps Baling and Xianyou also hope that we will not move, and take the opportunity to divide people's hearts."

  An act against the will of the people, no matter how high-sounding the reason can be found, it is very pale.

"The other side sees that this trick works, what if we use it again after a while?" Zhao Xianhe continued, "The monarch wants to move again, but we don't. So many times, do you think the city people won't move?" Escape without permission?"

  Although the return journey is difficult and dangerous, at least there is still hope.

  As long as there is a glimmer of hope, someone will take a risk.

  Everyone's mind is back, can you stop all of them without missing one?

  If this gives other city residents a start and a pretense, fleeing to the east will become a trend in the future, and it will be unstoppable.

  Wen Daolun let out a long sigh: "The way to use soldiers is to attack the heart."

   Once the top and bottom of Panlong City cannot be concentric, the combat power will be weakened immediately.

  General Hong was silent all the time, He Lianchen asked her: "What do you think of General Hong?"

  Her voice was cold: "First of all, King Xiluo doesn't want Zhong Shengguang to go back. Xiluo dared not invite us back to the country for so many years, because he was afraid that the tiger and wolf masters in Panlong City would easily attack the capital."

  The monarch is deeply wary of every vassal king. Not to mention anything else, the main cause of the turmoil in Xiluo now is the vassal king's rebellion. If the monarch summons the Panlongcheng army to return to the country, it will be called driving the tiger and swallowing the wolf. When the wolf is eaten, what will the tiger do if it enters the door?

  The Panlong army is stronger than any army under the vassal king.

   To make an even worse assumption, if Zhong Shengguang took the opportunity of returning to the country to directly cause chaos, separate himself or force the palace again, the problem of the vassal king will be further aggravated, and the king of Xiluo will not regret it?

  So King Xiluo would rather consider foreign aid than call Zhong Shengguang back.

  After all, foreign aid has no roots in the country, and everyone is afraid of it, so naturally it cannot win the hearts of the people.

  All these truths are understood by everyone here.

  General Hong looked around everyone: "Secondly, do you really want to go back?"

  As soon as this question came out, everyone fell silent.

  He Lingchuan secretly gave a thumbs up, good question.

   Those who can attend the meeting are all high-level officials of Panlong City, who are powerful and powerful. It can be said that they live at the top of this pyramid. Over the past ten years, they have deeply cultivated Panlong City, established a large number of industries, and have the deepest interests bound to this place. Once they leave, they suffer the most.

  This is due to human nature, and has nothing to do with integrity or not.

  What good will returning east do them? Returning to Xiluo is full of uncertainties. The original property at hand shrinks immediately, and the wealth is greatly reduced.

  The Panlong Wasteland is so big, the Chipa Plateau is so rich in materials, and has a large population. What's wrong with staying?

  The third soul asked: "So, who is it that wants to go back?"

  It is the people who moved to the Panlong Wasteland from the mainland, and now they want to return to their roots, and the young people who are deeply curious about their homeland.

  General Hong said again: "Northern Demon Kingdom thinks they have made a conspiracy. We have no choice. In fact, we don't have to choose at all."

   "No need to choose?" General Nan Ke was surprised, "Could it be that we didn't follow the Qian'an order if we didn't move? But this is also a choice.

  " Inaction is itself a statement.

  Wen Daolun frowned all the time, and only then said: "I think the meaning of the Red General is to jump out of the restrictions of the demon country, and we can't simply make a decision between staying or moving."

  General Nan Ke was dissatisfied: "Old Wen, you are not authentic. These millions of people will either leave or stay. Do you think there is a third choice?"

   "We were all taken into the ditch by General Zhao, thinking about how to deal with the relocation order." Wen Daolun turned to Zhong Shengguang and said, "If the monarch doesn't issue the relocation order, then nothing will happen?"

  Zhong Shengguang asked him: "We are thousands of miles away, how can we influence the king's decision?"

  General Hong walked to the edge of the sand table, drew his sword and pointed at it: "Yourou, the king of Xiluo, has repeated actions, and we can't afford to wait. Therefore, Panlong City has to make a quick decision for him."

  Decision?

  Her voice was sonorous and powerful, echoing in everyone's ears:

  「Declare the whole city, mobilize the whole army, let’s fight back!」
