The people from the Sacred Institution retreated. They didn't retreat very quickly, but it was precisely because of this that the people from the Sacred Institution felt even more aggrieved. To be honest, they would rather fight the people from the Sacred Institution, even if they die in battle. They didn't want to see the people from the Sacred Institution leave so arrogantly, as if they didn't care about them at all.
Zhao Hai calmly stood there and watched the people from the Sacred Institute leave. After they left, he opened his mouth and said, "Let's go back." Then his figure flashed as he flew towards the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.
Lu Jinyan and the others didn't say anything as they followed Zhao Hai back to the mansion. They were in a bad mood, but they didn't say anything.
Before long, the group returned to the mansion. Zhao Hai gathered everyone in the conference hall. During the entire process, Lu Jinyan and the others didn't say anything.
After everyone arrived at the conference hall, Zhao Hai looked at everyone. Then he smiled faintly and said, "Does everyone want to curse?"
When everyone heard Zhao Hai, they couldn't help but stare. However, no one spoke. Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "I know that everyone thinks that the people from the Sacred Institute are too arrogant and that we should fight them. But what I want to tell you is that the Sacred Institute is just acting. They're waiting for us to rush up. Once we rush up, they would immediately counterattack and entangle with us. When the time comes, we can only fight them to the death."
Everyone remained silent. In fact, they had already thought about what Zhao Hai said. However, they were still very angry. They still wanted to fight the Sacred Institute. This was an emotion, it had nothing to do with reason.
Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "The reason why I didn't let everyone attack is because I'm afraid of losing people if we get entangled with the people from the Sacred Institute. But I also thought about something else. If we die or lose, what will happen? "There are only two possibilities. First, because of our defeat, the people of the various city-states have the same hatred towards Kai. They once again send reinforcements to fight against the people with the word 'Sheng'. But what do you think is the probability of this happening? The second possibility is that they are afraid. When they see us all die in battle, they will be afraid. They will remember that their previous life was good. Although the Sacred Institute is a bit greedy, as long as we listen to the Sacred Institute, we can still maintain our ruling position. As for the life and death of the lowly commoners, it has nothing to do with us. What do you think is the possibility? "
Nobody spoke. This time, it wasn't because they were dissatisfied with Zhao Hai. Instead, it was because they were thinking about Zhao Hai's words. They were thinking that if they were really defeated and died, which scenario would the other city-states choose?
After thinking about it, everyone suddenly felt dejected. This was because they discovered that the second scenario was more likely. Especially for people like Liu Jun, they were sure that the second scenario would happen. This was because Liu Jun was very clear that if the Sacred Institute didn't suddenly attack Ben Horse City, causing internal strife, then the Ben Horse City wouldn't send reinforcements to Puhe City. Why? Hehe, is there a need to ask? Because they're afraid of losses.
The Spirit Weapon World wasn't a peaceful place. If the various city-states wanted to maintain their rule, there was no other way. There was only one thing, and that was strength. As long as the City Lord still had enough strength, he could rule over a city-state. On the other hand, if the City Lord's strength was gone, then he would be replaced. This was the reality.
In this reality, even if the City Lords didn't like the Sacred Institute, in order to maintain their rule, they wouldn't easily intervene. This was because they were afraid.
Although Wu Tianci was a hateful person, there was one thing he said that made sense. That was the taste of power. Once you have tasted it, you wouldn't want to let it go again.
Everyone stopped talking, they knew that they were too impulsive. If they really rushed forward and got entangled by the Sacred Institute, then they would be in trouble. Their defeat was almost certain, but if they were defeated, then what would happen to the Puhe City? How would the other city-states react? These were all predictable.
Zhao Hai looked at everyone and then said, "I don't think I need to say more. Everyone should understand that we cannot fail. We are gathered here, attracting the attention of the entire Spirit Weapon World. This isn't just a test, it's also a test of the courage of the various city-states. It wasn't easy for the various city-states to muster up their courage to fight against the Holy Academy. Once we lose, their courage would completely disappear. When that time comes, I'm afraid that the situation of the Spirit Weapon World would be worse than before." Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "
Everyone was silent. Of course, they knew that Zhao Hai was speaking the truth. However, these words sounded very cruel. Not only were they testing the other city-states, they were also testing the other city-states' courage. These words weren't wrong at all.
Liu Jun took a deep breath, then he cupped his fist towards Zhao Hai and said, "City Lord Zhao, I'm sorry. We were a bit emotional just now. Please don't take offense, we understand what you mean. Rest assured, we don't blame you."
The others also had the same reaction. Lu Jinyan didn't say anything, but he still had a smile on his face. Zhao Hai looked at everyone, then he waved his hand and said, "But to be honest, today's matter is really frustrating. But you don't need to worry, we will vent our anger sooner or later."
Everyone loudly applauded. Zhao Hai looked at them and said, "Alright, I don't think the people from the Holy Courtyard would come today. But everyone should go and rest. We need to prepare, there might be a battle tonight." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright.
When everyone heard Zhao Hai, they couldn't help but stare. Then they looked at Zhao Hai in confusion. Lu Jinyan looked at Zhao Hai and said, "City Lord Zhao, why do you think that there will be a battle tonight? It's too dark at night, we can't see anything. How can we fight? "
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "It's precisely because of the dark at night that it's possible for a battle to take place. Everyone, tell me, does the dark at night have a greater effect on Sky Dance Realm experts or on the ballistas?"
When everyone heard Zhao Hai, their complexion couldn't help but change. They knew that although the night had an effect on Sky Dance Experts, the effect wasn't very big. This was because Sky Dance Experts had more or less spiritual force. Although their spiritual force was very rough and small, with this spiritual force, Sky Dance Experts were still able to carry out some actions in the dark.
However, the ballistas were different. The users of the ballistas were people from Pu River. As for the people from the Spirit Weapon World, their nutrition wasn't that good. Many of them had night blindness to begin with. Once night fell, they wouldn't be able to see anything. Under such circumstances, the ballistas weren't of much use.
Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "Moreover, attacking at night has another advantage for the Holy Academy. This is because they are the attacking side, and they want to attack a big city like Puhe City. It can be said that everyone here is their enemy. Therefore, they can attack with ease, attack with ease, and destroy with ease. Therefore, attacking at night has a lot of advantages for the Holy Academy." Zhao Hai looked at the crowd and said, "Actually, attacking at night has a lot of advantages.
Everyone stared, then their complexion changed. They didn't know what to say. This was because they discovered that what Zhao Hai said was true. If the Sacred Institute were to attack at night, then their troubles wouldn't be small. At this time, the number of Sky Dance Realm experts in Puhe City was at a disadvantage. How could they deal with this situation?
Zhao Hai looked at everyone, then he smiled faintly and said, "Everyone, with so many benefits, how could they not attack? However, their attack isn't impossible to break. Everyone needs to do a few things. First, we need City Lord Lu to personally make the ordinary people leave Puhe City as soon as possible. Even if they can't leave through the transmission formation, they should still leave through the city gates. Even if they live in the wilderness, it would still be safer than living in the city. "
Lu Jinyan nodded and said, "Alright, I'll handle this matter. I'll make sure that all the ordinary people in the city leave by today."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he said, "Second, all the soldiers must be stationed at the edge of the city walls. No one can be stationed in the city."
Everyone stared for a moment, but they still nodded. This kind of thing had to be arranged by Lu Jinyan and the others. Everyone was waiting for Zhao's next order.
Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "Third, in the city, pile up a lot of wood in the city's main square. The more the better. At the same time, burn some kerosene. This needs to be done immediately." Lu Jinyan nodded, Zhao Hai's request wasn't excessive. Moreover, with the fire, they would be able to see the enemy clearly. This was also a good thing for them.
Zhao Hai didn't stop, but he continued, "Fourth, immediately pass down the order to adjust the angle of the ballistas. At least half of them should be facing the ground instead of the sky. Especially at the height of the buildings, we need to arrange enough ballistas."
When Lu Jinyan and the others heard Zhao Hai, they recalled Zhao Hai's previous order. They couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. Then they suddenly became excited. Lu Jinyan's eyes shined as he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Mister, what do you mean? Attack those guys from the Sacred Institute? "
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Of course, if we don't attack them and hurt them, then how can we vent today's anger? This time, we don't need to leave anyone in the city, all of our Sky Dancing Experts are to stay on the city walls. Our goal isn't to attack those guys from the Holy Courtyard, but to protect the ballistas. If those guys from the Holy Courtyard want to attack the ballistas, then we must protect them. Right, City Lord Lu, you need to arrange how many bonfires are lit in the city and adjust the angles of the ballistas. When night falls, we'll first use fire arrows to light the bonfires.
