Elder Li was the one who proposed to form an alliance with Dragon Eagle. In the beginning, Elder Tan was actually very dissatisfied with it. It wasn't because he was dissatisfied with the plan. In fact, he agreed with the idea of forming an alliance. However, it was Elder Li who proposed it, so he was naturally displeased.
However, things had developed to this point, and the Xiao Hai Dynasty had actually gained a lot of benefits, which made him feel much better.
However, because this plan was proposed by Elder Li, the biggest credit this time was undoubtedly Elder Li.
Now that Elder Li took the initiative to withdraw from the war, Elder Tan was instantly delighted. This was simply a pie falling from the sky, and the credit was given to him for free.
Now that the Xiao Hai Dynasty and Dragon Eagle were in a good situation, if they were to withdraw now, it would simply be giving away the gains that they had gained in the past few months. How could that be possible?
Furthermore, his words were not just to scare them. Although Elder Li's words were somewhat reasonable, the war was hard to predict. Furthermore, he did not think that after they retreated from the war, the war would develop in the way that Elder Li said it would.
In the main hall, the Outer King and the other elders were silent. Elder Li's words made them very excited. Not only could they deal a heavy blow to Mo Luo, but they could also deal a blow to Dragon Eagle, which was extremely significant to the rise of the Xiao Hai Dynasty.
After this great battle, Mo Luo's position in their hearts would inevitably decline. Meanwhile, the Xiao Hai Dynasty and Dragon Eagle would also rise at this time.
However, Dragon Eagle's strength was originally stronger than the Xiao Hai Dynasty. This time, the two foreign dynasties occupied so much territory. Even if the two foreign dynasties rose, Dragon Eagle might still be stronger than the Xiao Hai Dynasty.
If that was the case, it wouldn't be a good thing for the Xiao Hai Dynasty's rise in the east. Although the two foreign dynasties had formed an alliance, there were no eternal friends or enemies between countries in the world.
For these foreign dynasties, there was no difference between them and other countries. Dragon Eagle and the Xiao Hai Dynasty used to be enemies, but they became allies because of benefits.
Perhaps one day, Dragon Eagle would also stand on the same line with others because of benefits, and become enemies with the Xiao Hai Dynasty again. These were all extremely likely things to happen.
Moreover, if Dragonhawk wanted to dominate the east, there would definitely be a battle with Howling Sea.
If they did not seize the opportunity to deal a blow to the Dragon Hawk now, it would basically be impossible for them to deal with the Dragon Hawk after they defeated Moro.
Therefore, even though Elder Li's words were risky, it was still beneficial to Xiao Hai. As long as the plan was completed, they would become the biggest beneficiaries of this war.
However, Elder Tan's words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing everyone's beautiful fantasies. They had no choice but to face up to the feasibility of Elder Li's plan.
If after they retreated, Moro's main force did not turn to the Dragon Eagles but chose to continue to attack them, what should they do? Do I really have to do as Elder Tan said and give up all the results of the past three months?
This was unacceptable. Every city was built with the blood of countless disciples of the Sea of Howling Sword Sect. It was easy for them to give up now.
However, if he wanted to fight back after giving up, it would not be an easy thing to do.
"Elder Li, Elder Tan's words make sense. Based on the current situation, your plan is good, but it's not reliable. Our disciples have sacrificed so much blood in exchange for these territories. If we just give them up like this, I'm afraid we'll disappoint the disciples!
Besides, I don't want to fall out with Dragonhawk now. As for weakening Dragonhawk's strength, let's talk about it later. " Outer Monarch pondered over it again and finally suppressed the impulse in his heart, feeling that it was better to be safe.
Even though the existence of Dragonhawk was a major hidden danger to Xiao Hai, they still needed Dragonhawk as an ally. If they were to betray them at this time, Dragonhawk would definitely fall out with them. By then, not to mention rising, even the two Outer Dynasties would face a huge threat.
"Outer Monarch, even if we make a fool out of Dragonhawk, they won't fall out with us under the current circumstances. That's because they know very well that if our alliance doesn't exist, we'll all be devoured by Moro. That's why no matter how angry Dragonhawk is, they'll bear with it and only deal with us after the war is over.
However, at that time, we won't have to worry about Dragonhawk anymore. " Hearing Outer Monarch's words, Elder Li was somewhat disappointed, but he did not give up and wanted to continue to persuade Outer Monarch.
Now that the situation in the east would change because of this war, if they didn't change the advantage between the three Outer Dynasties now, it would basically be impossible to change it after the war was over.
Dragonhawk's existence was like a tumor to Xiao Hai. If they didn't step on them now, it would be even more difficult in the future. Xiao Hai might even be stepped on by Dragonhawk.
As an elder of Xiao Hai, the interests of the entire Xiao Hai were closely related to them. He naturally didn't want Xiao Hai to become Dragonhawk's pawn, so he insisted on giving Dragonhawk a blow now and not after the war.
"This …" Hearing Elder Li's words, Outer Monarch's firm confidence began to waver again.
"Outer Monarch, Elder Li is simply deceiving us. He's simply gambling with the future of Xiao Hai. If we stab the Dragon Eagle in the back at this time and provoke them, what if they choose to perish together with us?
Now that we're attacking Moro with Dragonhawk, the situation is good and Moro is retreating. Why should we take the risk and offend Dragonhawk now?
If we retreat, Dragonhawk will be heavily injured and they won't even be able to resist Moro anymore. Will Moro let us go then? Without the Dragon Eagle, how can we, the Howling Ocean Sect, resist Mo Luo? This is clearly forcing Xiao Hai to a dead end. Outer Monarch, please reconsider. No matter how much we want to weaken Dragonhawk, we can't take action at this critical moment. We're digging our own grave! "Elder Tan said to Elder Li angrily.
"Outer Monarch, I think Elder Tan's words are not unreasonable. Now that we're constantly attacking Moro's territory, why should we show weakness and give up the territory that we've conquered?
If we retreat, we might weaken Dragonhawk's strength, but Dragonhawk is our ally now. Weakening its strength is equivalent to weakening our own strength.
