The drinking session lasted for a long time. Shi Tianhu and the others didn't put on the airs of a River-breaking Expert. From time to time, they would chat with Stone Hammer. In short, the atmosphere was very good.
Naturally, Tang Ming also told Stone Hammer and the others about what happened today. Although he talked about it before, this time, he talked about his relationship with Shi Tianhu and the others.
After chatting, Shi Tianhu and the others understood what was going on. They also had a direct understanding of Stone Hammer's position in the Lost Soul City. Stone Hammer was Zhao Hai's most trusted subordinate.
Shi Tianhu and the others didn't leave. Instead, they stayed in the camp. Stone Hammer arranged several rooms for them to rest. At the same time, he began to meet with the commanders of the other city-states.
When these people arrived at Stone Hammer's room, they couldn't help but smile bitterly. They didn't dare to be as casual with the Ancestors as Stone Hammer was with Tang Ming. Compared to the River-breaking Level Ancestors, they might as well be casual with Stone Hammer.
After Stone Hammer invited the group to sit down, he looked at them and smiled, "This is good. With several River-breaking Level Ancestors, we'll be safer. Hahaha. I hope that we can set off tomorrow."
The group smiled bitterly. The commander of the Stone Ox City-State looked at Shi Chui and said, "Of course we'll be safer with the Ancestors here. However, doing things under the eyes of the Ancestors wouldn't be easy."
Seeing their expressions, Shi Chui couldn't help but laugh and said, "What's there to be worried about? The Ancestors are our people. They won't do anything to us, so there's nothing to be afraid of. You also said that I'm the commander of this battle. If anything happens, I'll take care of it. You don't need to worry."
This was something that they had already discussed. This time, the Lost Soul City sent the most troops, experts, and supplies. Because of this, the commander of this battle was naturally Stone Hammer.
They were a small alliance, unlike the alliance against the Sacred Academy. Their alliance was more reliable. This was because if they didn't stick together, then not only would the Sacred Academy deal with them, Nineteen wouldn't let them off either. Because of this, they needed to stick together.
Because of this, the City Lords didn't say anything when they heard Stone Hammer. They just nodded. They knew that this battle wasn't a trivial matter. Because of this, the various city-states didn't dare to be negligent and sent their elites. They wanted to gain more merits and gain more benefits.
What they didn't know was that the army sent by the Lost Soul City-State wasn't the most elite. Among the 30 thousand people, only 5 thousand were the elites of the Lost Soul City-State. The remaining 25 thousand people were originally from the Puhe City-State. Moreover, they weren't the elites of the Puhe City-State, they were the ordinary army of the Puhe City-State. After being reorganized, they became a new army.
Although these new troops weren't weak, they were still lacking compared to the elite troops of the various city-states. The reason why Stone Hammer brought these troops was because he wanted to train them.
There was no mistake, Zhao Hai wanted to train his troops. Originally, the biggest weakness of the Lost Soul City was its small population. Because of this, they didn't have a lot of troops. However, these troops were all elites with the best equipment. Moreover, all of them had been trained by Zhao Hai. Because of this, the Lost Soul City's army was very formidable.
Now that they had taken over Puhai, although it wasn't a big city-state, it still didn't lack people. However, Zhao Hai didn't blindly expand the army. On the contrary, they also reduced some of their troops. However, there were still a lot of troops left in the Puhai city-state. However, these troops were somewhat mixed. Some of them didn't have good fighting strength, some of them hadn't even seen blood yet.
Regarding these troops, Zhao Hai still kept them. However, after some reorganization, some of the troops with low fighting strength were scattered and then regrouped to form a new army. Although these new troops weren't as strong as the elite troops of the various city-states, they were still stronger than the ordinary troops of the various city-states. As long as they saw blood a few times and went through several battles, then these troops would quickly grow into true elite troops.
The reason why these troops were able to form a fighting force so quickly was mainly due to the training and resources of the Lost Soul city-state. They ate well, used good equipment, trained hard, and were treated very well. This allowed them to have the potential to become an elite force. As long as they went through a war, saw blood, and saw big scenes, they could quickly become an elite force.
Zhao Hai believed that Nineteen's attack would fail. This was because the people of the various city-states had their own ulterior motives. Moreover, there were also spies. In this case, if Nineteen could win, then it would be very scary.
Nineteen thought that by using benefits to gather the various city-states, they would be able to go to war with the Sacred Court. However, he didn't think that each city-state would have their own plans. Each city-state wanted to take advantage of the situation and didn't want to suffer a loss. In the future, they might not be as useful as they used to be.
Moreover, when Lu Jinyan and the others came together, the five City Lords were against it, so the Alliance Master's orders couldn't be carried out. It was like a hoop curse, trapping Year 19. After Year 19, if a City Lord wasn't satisfied with any orders, they would definitely join forces to oppose it. In the end, the orders would naturally be scrapped.
In this case, if Nineteen could still win, then it could only be said that the Sacred Courtyard was too useless. Needless to say, Zhao Hai would immediately send his troops to the Secret Territory. He would take control of the Secret Territory first.
This time, Nian Nineteen was personally leading the troops. Because of this, Nian Nineteen was currently in Yalong City. However, Nian Nineteen's residence was very interesting. He lived in the City Lord's Mansion while the Long Clan lived in the back of the mansion. They gave the front to Nian Nineteen.
Everyone said that the Long Clan did this on their own initiative, but only a few people believed it. Everyone knew that this was done by the Clan Alliance, and the Long Clan actually agreed to it.
While Nineteen was working in the front of the Yalong City Lord's mansion, Long Tianlin was sitting in his study room. His complexion was pale, and the old man who had been following him was still standing behind him.
The old man glanced at Long Tianlin and said in a deep voice, "Young Master, are you very angry?"
"They are going too far. Those guys from the Family Alliance are really going too far. Great Grandfather, how long do we have to endure this?"
The old man looked at Long Tianlin and said, "It won't be long before Nineteen and the others set out for battle. This time, they will be facing disaster. Once they fail, I'm afraid that Zhao Hai will make his move. Once Zhao Hai makes his move, his first target would be Nineteen, then his second target would certainly be the Alliance. Zhao Hai wouldn't let the Alliance off so easily. When the time comes, it will be a good opportunity for us to take back everything that our Long Clan has lost."
Long Tianlin's eyes flashed with a cold light as he said, "Alright, we'll endure for a while. As long as the time comes, I'll make them pay the price." After saying this, Long Tianlin clenched his teeth.
The old man looked at Long Tianlin and said, "Young Master, if we really deal with the Alliance, what do you want to do next?"
When Long Tianlin heard the old man, he couldn't help but stare. He looked at the old man and said, "Great Grandfather, what do you mean? What do you mean by what I want to do? At that time, we'll be able to control the Yalong City, just like before. "
The old man sighed and said, "Young Master, the present is different from the past. If we deal with the Alliance in the past, then we can really control the Yalong City. We can slowly develop and make the Yalong City the largest city in the Spirit Weapon Realm. But now, it's too difficult for us to do this. This is because Zhao Hai has appeared in the Spirit Weapon Realm."
After saying this, the old man paused for a moment, then he looked at Long Tianlin and said, "Young Master, you should know how long Zhao Hai's Lost Soul City has been established. You should also know how they've developed. Year 1919 was defeated. Zhao Hai's Yalong City will certainly deal with Year 1919 in the shortest time possible. They might even swallow the Giant Elephant City. If Zhao Hai really does swallow the Giant Elephant City, then the Lost Soul City would become the largest city in the Spirit Weapon Realm. At that time, would they still allow the Yalong City to develop peacefully and become his opponent?"
Long Tianlin stared. Although he told the old man that the Yalong City's biggest enemy would be the Lost Soul City, Zhao Hai, it wasn't as serious as what the old man said. Long Tianlin looked at the old man and said, "Great Grandfather, do you think that Zhao Hai has the ability to swallow the Giant Elephant City? The Giant Elephant City isn't small. Moreover, it has its own River-breaking Ancestor. Do you think that Zhao Hai has the ability to swallow the Giant Elephant City? "
The old man sighed and said, "Yes, Zhao Hai is definitely not a good person. I've been thinking about it these past few days. From Zhao Hai's actions, I can roughly guess why Nineteen was able to become the Alliance Leader of the Anti-Holy Academy Alliance. I'm afraid that Zhao Hai was able to predict all of this. He might even be the one behind the scenes." The old man sighed and said, "Zhao Hai is definitely not a good person.
When Long Tianlin heard the old man, he couldn't help but stare. Then he looked at the old man and said, "Great Grandfather, why would Zhao Hai do this? What if Year 1919 really controls the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance? Then wouldn't he be finished? "
The old man shook his head and said, "That's impossible. Nineteen has been on the wrong path since the beginning. He wanted to contact the Family Alliance and have them join the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance in order to improve his position in the alliance. This was a mistake in itself. At the same time, he also tried to unite with other city-states. However, his alliance with the other city-states was very weak. It can be said that Nineteen might seem to be doing well now, but everything else is just on the surface. It's like a castle built on the beach that will disappear when a wave hits it."
After saying this, the old man let out a long breath. Then he said, "Let's take a look at Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai has been very low-key recently. However, if we look at his relationship with the Stone Ox City and the other city-states, we can see that they have formed a very solid alliance. Even if the Lost Soul City wants to withdraw from the Anti-Sacred Academy Alliance, I'm afraid that the other city-states would follow suit. This is a true alliance. Moreover, I think that there's another reason why Zhao Hai is so low-key right now, and that is that he has caused the other city-states to be wary of him."
Long Tianlin looked at the old man and said, "Causing the other city-states to be wary of him? Why? Because when he was fighting against the Sacred Institute, 15 cities voluntarily joined the Lost Soul City-State? Because he swallowed the Puhe City? "
"On one hand." The old man replied, "This should only be one of the reasons. When Zhao Hai swallowed those cities as well as the Puhe City, the other city-states were wary of him. However, it wasn't to the point where they had to unite and ostracize Zhao Hai. The real reason might be because Zhao Hai's performance in the battle against the Sacred Academy was too good, too strong. This caused the other city-states to be vigilant."
The old man looked at Long Tianlin and said, "When the Sacred Academy fought against Zhao Hai in Puhe City, the other city-states only sent some Wu Sky Realm experts as support. But even then, Zhao Hai still defeated the Sacred Academy and killed more than a thousand Wu Sky Realm experts. Those were Wu Sky Realm experts, they weren't ordinary people. This caused the other city-states to have a deep fear of Zhao Hai. They didn't dare to let Zhao Hai fight against the Sacred Academy because if they did, then Zhao Hai's prestige would increase. And with Zhao Hai's means, if his prestige was enough, then it would be hard to guarantee that he wouldn't annex the other city-states. Because of this, the other city-states began to exclude Zhao Hai and put Nian Nineteen in front of them to deal with Zhao Hai. This is also the main reason why Nian Nineteen could easily form an alliance with the other city-states."
The old man sighed and said, "But what they didn't expect was that this was exactly what Zhao Hai wanted. If the city-states didn't do this and didn't cooperate with Zhao Hai, then Zhao Hai wouldn't be able to do anything to them. Although his prestige wasn't low at the time, it wasn't too high. If the city-states didn't listen to him, then he wouldn't be able to do anything. But the city-states used this method to bring Year 19 up. Zhao Hai immediately pushed the boat along with the current, making Year 19 the leader of the alliance. For the sake of his own face and for the benefit of the other city-states, Year 19 was determined to go to war with the Sacred Court. But look at Year 19's current situation, there's at least an 80% chance that the Clan Alliance is from the Sacred Court. Zhao Hai's alliance is just a small alliance, while the other city-states also have their own plans. In this case, if they were to take the initiative to attack, then would they be able to win against the Sacred Court? I don't think it's possible. If Year 19 is defeated, then the Sacred Court's momentum will rise. At that time, the Sacred Court might take the initiative to attack. The Clan Alliance might even turn around and help the Sacred Court. At that time, the alliance would be in danger. At that time, Zhao Hai would appear to clean up this mess. What do you think the other city-states would think? If this mess is cleaned up, then how high would Zhao Hai's prestige be? "
