"Your Majesty, our army has 46 minor injuries, 11 serious injuries, and 6 deaths." A commander of the Heavenly Army reported to Mo Guyun.
"These damn monsters! Send the order, send the injured to treatment quickly, and use the best medicine. Comfort the families of the fallen soldiers. They are all heroes, and the consolation money will be doubled." Mo Guyun said solemnly.
, it can be seen that he attaches great importance to every soldier under his command.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The commander immediately began to deal with these matters.
At this time, the troops from Donglin City and Gufeng City had arrived. They were led by Dong Lin, the manager of Donglin City, and Xie Gufeng, the lord of Gufeng City respectively.
"My subordinates are late in rescuing me. Please punish me, Princess!" Guan Donglin and Xie Gufeng came to Mo Guyun at the same time, knelt on one knee and said with cupped hands.
"Dong Lin, Gu Feng, get up." Mo Guyun said softly, but there was still a hint of unhappiness in his tone. I don't know if it was because Guan Donglin and Xie Gufeng were too slow or because of the fallen heavenly soldiers.
"Your Majesty, Princess, these monsters are so abominable that they even made a surprise attack during the competition in our county. Please give the order, Princess. I, Guan Donglin, will kill all the monsters without leaving any trace behind." Guan Donglin volunteered.
.
"I, Xie Gufeng, am also going with Brother Donglin to avenge the dead soldiers." Xie Gufeng said not to be outdone.
"Forget it, don't chase the poor bandits. It's not suitable to fight in this mountain forest." Mo Guyun waved his hand and said, "Follow me back to Guyun City."
"Send an order to convene a battle meeting and order all the city lords from each city to come to Guyun City. My soldiers did not die on the battlefield, but lost their lives to some monsters. These monsters are really rebellious. From now on
None of the invading monsters can even think of going back." Mo Guyun became more and more angry as he spoke, and by the end his words almost turned into a roar.
Of course, nothing could be done about a grand event like the county competition and let some monsters ruin the atmosphere. After Mo Guyun returned to Guyun City, he still held a celebration banquet as planned, and the entire Guyun City was immersed in a carnival.
among.
However, it is different from the carnival outside. In the meeting hall of the princess's mansion, Mo Guyun is sitting on a chair in the middle of the hall. There are eight chairs on the left side of the hall and nine chairs on the right side. Guyun County except Guyun City
The city lords of the seventeen other cities are sitting here at the moment.
Because Luoyang City won the championship in the county competition, Murong Luoyang was sitting in the first position on the left side of Mo Guyun at this moment, and the rest of the positions were arranged according to the competition rankings.
At this moment, Mo Guyun was sitting upright, with a serious face, no expression, and no words. This made the already tense meeting hall even more dull. Everyone could feel the anger in Mo Guyun's heart.
This dullness did not last long. Mo Guyun took a deep breath and finally spoke.
"Lord Luoyang City, first of all, congratulations to you. Luoyang City has won the championship in this competition. The ranking in the county has also risen to the first place." Mo Guyun looked at Murong Luoyang and congratulated softly. This
Opening his mouth relaxed the tense atmosphere at the scene.
"Luoyang doesn't dare. The strength of any city in Guyun County cannot be underestimated, and the status of Guyun City cannot be shaken. If it weren't for Qin Lang, Luoyang City would definitely not be able to achieve such results in this competition. This time
The big competition is all just a matter of luck." Murong Luoyang quickly stood up, raised his hands to Mo Guyun and said. He himself did not expect that Qin Lang would make such a fuss, and single-handedly let Luoyang City win.
Champion. Afraid of offending Mo Guyun's face, he actually felt a little uneasy in his heart.
"Haha, Lord Luoyang City, there is no need to belittle yourself. Guyun City has been number one for so many years, and it's time to give up. This kind of thing is a good thing. If there is a big competition, you can squeeze Guyun City out of the top three.
, I almost wake up from sleep. Hahaha!"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, is so talented and strategic, and I really admire you from my subordinates. Under the leadership of Your Majesty, Guyun County will continue to grow and develop." Several city lords took the opportunity to flatter you.
"Okay, let's put the county competition aside for now. Let's discuss other things next." Mo Guyun took a sip of tea, put away the smile on his face, changed the subject, held the teacup, and said in a solemn tone:
"City Lords, what do you think of this beast tide attack?" Mo Guyun "My lord, the beast tide breaks out. This kind of thing happens several times every year, but this time the monster beast unexpectedly rushed out of Qingtian.
Mountains, fighting head-on with the Heavenly Army, I'm afraid everything happened for a reason." Murong Luoyang was the first to speak, at this moment, he has the qualifications.
"That's right, there is a white tiger with dazzling white eyes among the beasts. He claims to be one of the eight beast kings sitting down in the Qingtian Mountains. It was this tiger king who commanded the beast tide to attack us." Mo Guyun narrowed his eyes and said.
.
"What? King Tiger?"
"There is actually a Beast King in the Qingtian Mountains?"
"The herd led by the Tiger King? Doesn't this mean they are declaring war on us?"
The city lords of Zhucheng talked about it one by one. The bold behavior of the monster was really unexpected.
"Yes, the monster is declaring war on us. I have reported this to the king. What we have to do now is to deploy the fortifications. Before the king makes a decision, we must not let a monster rush out.
Qingtian Mountains."
"Humph, this is not easy. Our army will press forward and completely eradicate those monsters." Xie Gufeng said.
"That's right, as long as the king gives the order, we will be the vanguard and charge forward." Another city lord said.
"Your Majesty, I think fighting monsters is not a wise choice." Murong Luoyang put forward a different opinion.
"Lord of Luoyang City, is it possible that you are timid?" Xie Gufeng said with a sneer.
"Haha, Brother Murong, this is not like the behavior of the champion city of the competition!" Ming Dingtian, the city lord of Diming City, said angrily. This time the competition was stolen by Luoyang City, but what about his own city, Diming City?
Even if he didn't catch it, Ming Dingtian had already suppressed his anger, and he would seize the opportunity to scold Murong Luoyang.
Murong Luoyang remained unmoved by these people's cold words and looked straight at Mo Guyun.
"Oh? Lord of Luoyang City, what do you think?" Mo Guyun motioned to Murong Luoyang to say whatever he had to say.
"My lord, Princess, I wonder how strong the Tiger King is?" Murong Luoyang asked.
"Judging from the battle that day, the Tiger King's strength is almost the same as mine."
"That's right. First of all, in the mountains and forests, I wonder if the city lords are familiar with the terrain or the monsters are familiar with the terrain? Besides, the princess just said that this beast tide is led by the Tiger King. This is also
This means that this time the monsters are no longer a small chaotic beast tide like before, but an organized and large-scale beast tide. In this way, not to mention in the mountains and forests, I am afraid that it is in the Qingtian Mountains.
Besides, we probably won’t be able to gain much advantage. After all, those monsters are brave guys who are not afraid of death.”
Murong Luoyang paused, looked at everyone, and continued: "The most important point is that according to what the Tiger King said, there are eight beast kings in the Qingtian Mountains, which means that there are eight beast kings with similar strength to the princess.
Beast King. What kind of strength is this? Can our Guyun County alone be able to compete with it? Above it, there is a Beast King! I am afraid that only the Lord of the Kingdom can match it, right?"
"How can we, Guyun County, attack the Qingtian Mountains with our strength? It's not that I, Murong Luoyang, am greedy for life and afraid of death. It's just that the gap in strength is really too big. To level the Qingtian Mountains, I'm afraid I have to ask the king to order an entire country.
You can only do it with your own strength. And it might be a lose-lose ending."
Murong Luoyang's words caused everyone to fall into silence. Even Ming Dingtian, who had been in a strange mood just now, was speechless at this moment.
"Then is it possible that our losses this time will be in vain?" Ming Dingtian said, not wanting to give up. However, he did not have much confidence in saying this himself.
"Haha, of course not. In my opinion, it is better to deploy fortifications around the mountains. First, you can observe the movements of the monsters in the mountains at any time. Secondly, you can also prevent surprise attacks by the monsters and avoid fearless casualties of the surrounding people."
"Whether we want to start a complete war with the monsters depends on the order of the king. If we really want to fight, it will not be a war with our Guyun County. However, in my opinion, with these monsters
It's really not worthwhile to lose your life in a fight." Murong Luoyang shook his head and said.
"What the Lord of Luoyang City said is absolutely true. We need to take a long-term approach at this time." Guan Donglin lowered his head and pondered for a while before speaking.
"Well, I agree with what the Luoyang City Lord said." Haiti City City Lord Gu Yuhai also said.
"I agree too!"
Most of the city lords supported Murong Luoyang's opinion. Only a small number of city lords were still bowing their heads in deep thought and had not expressed any opinions yet.
When Ming Dingtian saw that Murong Luoyang had gained the support of most people, he could not say anything to refute, so he could only purse his lips in anger and stop talking.
"Well, since everyone agrees with the suggestion of the Lord of Luoyang City, then the matter will be left to the Lord of Luoyang City to handle. You are responsible for the specific matters of building fortifications, and some of the heavenly troops in the cities in the county are temporarily at your disposal."
Mo Guyun's words gave Murong Luoyang great power.
"I will fulfill my mission." Murong Luoyang was excited. He did not expect that Mo Guyun would suddenly delegate power. He knelt down on one knee in panic and obeyed the order.
"Get up, let this be settled for now. Next, there is one more thing to deal with." Mo Guyun picked up the teacup again, took a sip, and threw the teacup into the middle of the hall.
"Pah!" Accompanied by a crisp sound of the cup breaking, Mo Guyun shouted angrily: "Ming Dingtian, do you know your guilt?"
Ming Dingtian was immediately startled, and the hairs all over his body stood up. He fell to his knees and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, what crime do you think this subordinate has committed?"
Mo Guyun was furious, stepped forward, and kicked Ming Dingtian. Ming Dingtian couldn't bear it, and his body flew several feet away, and finally hit the wall of the meeting hall heavily.
"Could... has the matter been exposed?" Ming Dingtian shouted in pain, wiped the blood from his mouth, struggled with his body, knelt on the ground, not daring to say a word, but his body kept
Trembling.
"You colluded with forces outside the county to plot against the young people in Luoyang City for your own benefit. During the competition, you even attempted to attack Qin Lang. Do you think your conspiracy is unnoticed? You are still not going to treat me like this
Does the princess take it seriously?" Mo Guyun walked towards Ming Dingtian step by step and said word by word. Every word shocked everyone present. No one thought that the dignified city
Lord, he would do such a despicable thing to some young people.
Seeing that the matter was exposed, Ming Dingtian was immediately discouraged. He kowtowed in panic and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, my subordinate is aware of my crime. I hope that for the sake of my loyalty for many years, your Majesty, please forgive me."
Please take over your subordinates." As he said this, he kept kowtowing.
"Spare you? When you do those sloppy things, you are no longer my subordinate."
"Ming Dingtian, do you have anything else to explain?" Mo Guyun said ruthlessly.
Ming Dingtian's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe his ears.
