Zhuge Duan still couldn't accept it. He looked at Xu Kuang and couldn't help but ask:
"But this benevolence and righteousness is also a sharp sword for the development of our Mushroom Ridge."
After Zhuge Duan said this, his expression changed.
In response, Xu Kuang just smiled and did not answer.
There is no need for him to answer, the military advisor has completed his own strategy.
"The subordinates are foolish."
After hearing Zhuge Duan's words, Xu Kuang understood that Zhuge Duan was not very willing to accept this answer.
Seeing this situation, Xu Kuang could only say helplessly:
"Benevolence and righteousness are only for our own people. If we are even more righteous and righteous towards our enemies, not only will they not be influenced, but they will take advantage of our breathing space to fight back and kill us. Military Advisor, do you agree with what I say?
?".
How could Zhuge Duan disagree? What Xu Kuang said was very reasonable, but he didn't want to admit it in his heart.
Xu Kuang sighed, looked at Zhuge Duan and smiled at him:
"Military advisor, don't take it lightly. You have to understand that this has never been a world of benevolence and righteousness. What has happened in the past few months has been enough for you to see it all clearly, right?".
Xu Kuang did not continue speaking. For Zhuge Duan, saying this was enough.
Zhuge Duan looked ugly. This was the first time Xu Kuang had different opinions with him. He suddenly realized that his lord was very independent and valued him so much not because he had no backbone, but because he was too busy to do it alone.
.
Zhuge Duan immediately saluted and said to Xu Kuang:
"I will think about this issue carefully.".
Xu Kuang was not in a hurry and just nodded.
He looked at Zhuge Duan and said to him solemnly:
"Let's go back to the question of Krigs. Do you think we can really stand on the same front with him?".
Zhuge Duan was stunned again. It was not that he was unintelligent, he just subconsciously disdained being associated with Kriges.
Yes, Xu Kuang is right, they will never be able to stand on the same front, because Kriges is so ambitious. After dealing with Viscount Baihua, the next one to deal with is Mushroom Ridge.
At this time, Zhuge Duan took the initiative to direct the question back to the matter itself:
"But the conditions proposed by Krigs were too harsh. He asked us to help him deal with his brother, develop his strength, and cultivate an army for him, but he only needed to provide us with some information...".
Zhuge Duan found that he really had a problem, and his perspective on the problem was still wrong.
Xu Kuang smiled and said:
"Yes, although it seems that we are at a disadvantage on the surface, in fact, can the army we cultivate really bear the surname of Kriges?".
Xu Kuang pointed to the secret message on the table and said:
"The most vicious thing about this guy is that he didn't plan to deal with Viscount Bai Hua himself, but asked us to do it for him. In the end, he naturally sat on the throne of Viscount, and he can deal with us when he comes back, and what happened in the process
All adverse effects will be blamed on us."
Zhuge Duan's face looked ugly, why didn't he notice it?
Xu Kuang smiled and said:
"It's good. I have another plan, but I still need a military advisor to help me figure it out."
Zhuge Duan immediately looked at Xu Kuang in confusion.
Xu Kuang smiled and said:
"Kriggs is a cunning and cunning man who doesn't even have any affection for his own brother. Once he becomes the city lord, the future of White Birch City is foreseeable."
Xu Kuang first talked about the harm caused by Kriges' ascendancy in order to dispel Zhuge Duan's concerns and allow Zhuge Duan to think about strategies to deal with Krigs with peace of mind.
"So it's better for White Birch City to be in our hands. Doesn't Kriges want to take advantage of us? Let him promise to help us relieve the pressure of dealing with Viscount White Birch. In other words, once the kingdom pursues it, he must
Block it for us, this condition is not strict, he will agree."
Zhuge Duan thought for a moment and felt that this matter was very practical.
Then Xu Kuang said:
"Of course, this is not our ultimate goal. Our ultimate goal is to take over White Birch City smoothly before Krigs. This is the most important thing."
Xu Kuang is very envious of the geographical location of Baihua City. Baihua City is an important transportation thoroughfare. If the business of Mogu Ridge is placed there, it will definitely develop rapidly.
Zhuge Duan nodded and said to Xu Kuang:
"My lord might as well reply to Kriges like this. First, let him promise that he will not attack us after defeating his brother. At least stabilize him first."
Xu Kuang nodded.
Then Zhuge Duan said:
"The second is the problem we have to face next. Although it is raining heavily now, we must take a preemptive strike. My lord, I'm afraid you have to go to Moriel City immediately to ask for a meeting with Duke Moriel, so that you can get the upper hand and defeat everything.
The responsibility is all placed on Viscount Baihua."
Xu Kuang immediately understood the profound meaning behind this move. Regardless of whether Count Morel accepted it or not, at least Moguling's attitude was in place, and it would also make some reasonable preparations for the subsequent confrontation.
Xu Kuang nodded and said:
"Since we need to hurry up, I'll set off now, and no one can be alarmed."
Zhuge Duan nodded and said:
"That's exactly what I meant."
Xu Kuang nodded and said to Zhuge:
"There is Army Division Lao in Mushroom Ridge."
Zhuge Duan returned the gift.
Cuihua's voice sounded again:
"Task: Complaint
Mission content: Viscount White Birch is ready to go to Moriel City to file a complaint. You must hurry up before him and make Count Moriel believe that you are the victim.
Task time limit: 20 days
Task Difficulty:a
Mission reward: Phaseless Sword x1, mall points x1000, Duke Moriel's favorability degree 20, professional experience x100000."
When Xu Kuang received this task, he no longer hesitated. He first called everyone together, held a meeting, and then took the pulse-building pill.
After three days of life worse than death, he successfully shaped the meridians.
He successfully learned the Heavenly King Sword Technique, but his proficiency was only at a low level, unlike five years of priesthood and three years of alchemy, which would lead to full level proficiency.
He didn't have time to care about that. After he finished doing this, he immediately found Xin Jian quietly and borrowed Misty Moon Qinghui from him.
Although Xin Jian was reluctant to give up, he happily handed over Longyue Qinghui, and he also promised to keep Xu Kuang's secret secret.
Xu Kuang felt relieved. Late that night, he walked out of the customs in the rain and headed straight to Moriel City.
Xin Jian and Zhuge Duan stood together and silently saw off their lord.
Neither of them looked very good-looking, and they both had worries in their hearts, but they all knew that no one could go with Xu Kuang on this trip.
