Xingle City City Lord’s Mansion!

At this time, several chief elders and foreign kings were sitting in the hall, and two generals were standing in the hall.

"General Wu, General Lu, what is the situation inside and outside the city now?" the elder asked.

"Back to the general, after these days of inquiring, we can confirm that Xinliao City has indeed gathered a large number of troops. And the latest news is that some foreign countries are currently adding troops to Xinliao City." General Wu said first.

"Can you tell me their current strength?" the great elder asked.

"Currently there are no less than five million troops in Xinliao City, but if other foreign dynasties successfully increase their troops, it is estimated that they will not be less than seven million troops." General Wu replied.

"These guys are really not afraid of death. Do they think they can stop us if they have more troops than us?" The second elder looked a little disdainful.

These five million of them are elites, and they are not comparable to the uneven military strength of a foreign court.

"Continue to inquire about the situation in Xinliao City, and report to me any developments at any time!" the elder said to General Wu.

"Yes! My subordinates have resigned first!" General Wu handed over his hands and left the hall.

"General Lu, how is the situation in the city?" The elder turned his attention to General Lu again.

"Back to the general, my subordinates have been checking the whole city in the past few days. So far, no spies from the Danqing Alliance have been found. I think they have all been evacuated!" General Lu said.

He was the leader of the advance army that entered Xingle City before. Now after entering the city, he is responsible for the task of garrisoning the city and its security.

"They set up such a large defensive formation in Xingle City, but no one was stationed in the city. Isn't this a little unreasonable?" However, the great elder felt that this seemed a little unreasonable.

If they don't have any defenders in the city, what's the point of setting up such a large formation?

"Great Elder, are they hiding somewhere, but we just haven't found them?" Nanping Waiwang asked.

"Are you sure you have searched the entire city?" The great elder nodded, and then asked General Wu again.

“We have sent a large number of people these days and have checked every house in the city, and indeed no one from the Danqing Alliance has been found.

And I have also asked, and they are sure that the Danqing Alliance army that returned to Xingle City a few months ago did not stay in the city, but left Xingle City directly and headed towards Xinliao City. "General Lu replied.

"It would be impossible for an ordinary person to lay out a protective formation for such a large city. In all likelihood, this protective formation was created by the masters of the Holy Dynasty.

But with such a large formation, it was impossible for no one to see it. Therefore, the people staying in the city are not necessarily from the Danqing Alliance, but may also be from the Holy Dynasty. "Nanping Wai Wang continued.

"This subordinate has also thought about it, but what makes him strange is that all the people in the city said they have not seen anyone setting up a defensive formation in Xingle City.

These people are still very impressed with the people of the Holy Dynasty. Because many of them saw with their own eyes the man in black robe broke through Xingle City's defensive formation with one palm.

If the people of the Holy Dynasty really set up a defensive formation above Xingle City, it is impossible for them not to recognize it, and it is impossible not to see it at all. "General Lu explained.

"This is really puzzling. Could it be that this city defense formation appeared out of thin air?" After hearing this, the people present were even more incomprehensible.

They have seen this city defense formation before. Although the power of this formation is average, how can they avoid everyone's eyes and ears if they want to set up such a large city defense formation?

"Are you sure the people in the city didn't lie?" King Jiguang asked unwillingly.

"If there were just a few people, they might lie, but with so many people in the entire city, it's impossible for everyone to lie, right? Especially most of the people in the city are ordinary people. If someone really lies, it's impossible to deceive us without any flaws. General Lu said.

They asked these questions every time they searched a house, and most of them were not monks.

In the face of monks like them, if the whole city wanted to lie without leaving any trace, it would obviously not be justified. Someone would always show their flaws.

But everyone's words are basically the same, so there is only one possibility: everything they say is true.

"This is really strange. These guys can actually set up such a large city defense formation without the whole city knowing it. This is really incredible!" The great elder also frowned.

"Great Elder, is it possible that this is their trap?" said the third elder.

"What is the trap that the third elder is referring to?" The first elder didn't quite understand.

"What I mean is that the reason why we are so confused and suspicious now is exactly the result they want. Think about it, everyone, although they have deployed a city defense formation, in addition to being very powerful, this city defense formation is very powerful. , itself is not powerful.

Because they want to set up a truly powerful formation without everyone in the city noticing, which is obviously very difficult.

Moreover, setting up such a large formation would take a huge amount of time and resources, and they obviously did not intend to waste it.

So they deliberately set up such a large formation that seemed strong but not strong. It looked full of momentum. At least it made us think that this large formation was built with their energy, rather than a random formation. "The third elder speculated.

"But what does this mean to them? They spent so much effort just to set up such a city defense formation that can't stop us?

Although this formation was not as scary as imagined, it was not simple either, especially when no one in Xingle City noticed it. "Others wondered.

"Of course this makes sense. The purpose is to hold back our troops. Now that we know that they have carefully arranged a formation here, do we always think there is an ambush in this city?

But we can't find their people. Can we safely go to Xingle City? In this case, do you think we really dare to send out all five million troops to attack Xinliao City?

This is our retreat. If there is an ambush, as soon as we send out troops, they will block Xingle City and cut off our retreat. Wouldn't that be bad? "The third elder said.

"Great Elder, the Third Elder's statement seems to make sense. Now we are really worried about an ambush in the city, but we can't find any evidence.

In particular, the city defense formation may not be strong, but it is not weak either. If it is really weak, maybe we won't take it seriously and just kill the five million troops. Naturally, they will not be able to achieve their goal.

But now this city defense formation is obviously carefully designed to confuse us and make us always feel that there is an ambush in the city, so that we dare not focus our wholeheartedly on Xinliao City. "The fifth elder also agreed.

"That's right. Didn't General Wu just say that? They have assembled five million troops in Xinliao City, and there are two million reinforcements on the way.

Now they are using this city defense formation to confuse us. If the Lord wants us to send troops now, we really don't dare to send out all five million troops. We must leave some to garrison in Xingle City!

If we leave one million troops to garrison Xingle City, we can only dispatch four million troops, but we have to face seven to eight million troops.

As a result, the gap in military strength between us and the Danqing Alliance has undoubtedly increased.

They have twice the number of troops as we do, and they have an absolute advantage in strength. Even if our five million troops are all elite soldiers and generals, if we really fight against each other, how much will we lose? " said the fifth elder.

"Then do you think there is an ambush in this city?" The great elder pondered for a while and asked.

"So this is the result they want, false and true, true and false, we really don't dare to say whether there is an ambush in this city!

If there is no ambush, that's fine. If there is an ambush, we may be fooled! " said the fifth elder.

"If that's the case, do we really have to leave some of our troops to garrison in Xingle City?" the great elder said.

"For the sake of safety, we may really have to do this. After all, this is our retreat and we have to consider it."

"Now I may understand a little bit why we sent so many troops, but none of them could bring good news.

Not to mention them, even us seem to be a little passive now. "The great elder suddenly understood.

In the past, he always called those guys useless, but now that they have sent troops on their own, they are also facing the same helpless dilemma.

"Speaking of which, this holy dynasty is too hateful. If they hadn't colluded with these foreign dynasties, how could these foreign dynasties alone have caused such a storm?

Even if they have more troops, we can still attack them by force. But now that the Holy Chao is secretly helping them, we have to be timid, which is really annoying. "The fourth elder said angrily.

It is conceivable that if they did not have the help of the Holy Dynasty, they would never have been able to set up the Xingle City's city defense formation without the entire city knowing about it.

This also tells them that once they start a war with the Danqing Alliance, the Holy Dynasty may appear at any time, which is a problem that people have to worry about.

"If you ask me, then we should send troops before their reinforcements arrive. At least there are a few million fewer troops, so we still have some advantages.

But the longer it takes, the worse it will be for us. "The second elder said impatiently.

"There is no problem in attacking the Danqing Alliance now, but judging from this city defense formation, the Holy Dynasty really wants to help the Danqing Alliance.

If we start a war like this, I'm afraid we will suffer the same losses! " said the fifth elder.

"Don't we still have a master? If the Holy Dynasty really sends troops, then the master can no longer turn a blind eye, and our target is only the Danqing Alliance." The second elder said.

"That's right, I'm going to report the situation to the Lord. It's best to start the war early, otherwise it will become more and more disadvantageous for us!" After the great elder said that, he left the hall directly.
