"Why can't we win?"
Yao Shu was the first to answer. "In the whole of Nanzhan State, a Seven-star Earth-God and a Seven-star Earth-God Instrument is enough to build a powerful force like the Cao Family and the Beiming Family!
Just last night, Your Majesty, you gave us 14 Seven-star Earth-God Instruments! In addition to the three Seven-star Earth-God Instruments that the nine tribes already have, that's a total of 17!
Through my Primordial Spirit, I can see that Liu Xuanxin, Zhao Yun, Lu Bu, and Diao Chan have all reached Seven-star Earth-God Realm! Including myself, Sky Poison Witch, and Beast Tamer Witch, that's a total of seven Seven-star Earth-God Realm!
Even without you, Your Majesty, the top combat power of the Beixuan Royal City is enough to take on at least ten powerful forces! Right now, we're only attacking one city and one land. There's no reason we can't win! "
That was why everyone nodded in agreement. No one thought that the Beixuan Royal City would fail in their first battle!
In their eyes, Chen Xiaobei had not only won over the hearts of 900 million people, he had also increased the strength of the Beixuan Royal City by several levels! The first battle of expansion was a sure win!
"I said we can't!"
Chen Xiaobei shook his head. "Everything is ready for our expansion, but we're still missing an east wind!"
"Still lacking an east wind?" Everyone was taken aback and asked doubtfully, "What is the east wind Your Majesty is referring to?"
"Spiritual Stones!"
Chen Xiaobei's eyes narrowed. "I spent one billion high-grade Spiritual Stones to build the Beixuan Royal City. This cultivation session has used up all the remaining Spiritual Stones!
So, even though we have 17 Seven-star Earth-God Instruments, we can't use 10 of them! Only the seven Earth-God Realm experts can use their Ethereal Force to activate their Earth-God Instruments! "
If one's cultivation was not high enough, activating an Earth-God instrument would require Spiritual Stones!
Without Spiritual Stones, the 10 Earth-God Instruments were just for show!
"Your Majesty is right, but we don't have to use all our Earth-God Instruments!"
Sky Poison Witch said. "Even if we only have seven Earth-God Instruments and seven Earth-God Instruments, it's more than enough to take down a capital city!"
"You're too naive!"
Though Xuan Xin, Zhao Yun, Lu Bu, and Diao Chan have reached Seven-star Earth-God cultivation, their foundations are not stable. They can't unleash their full potential! "
Hearing this, Grand Shaman Imperial Beast said confidently: "Even so! With our Nine Li Tribe's three Seven Star Earth Immortal Grand Magi, we can also take down a main city! "
"Yes! Three Seven Star Earth Immortal Venerable Shamans, in addition to the Shaman Tribe's army, can indeed breach the city! "
Chen frowned and changed the topic, "But, my goal is to unify the entire Nanzhan State. I don't want to change places every time I fight!"
"Changing locations after every shot? What does that mean? "The nine great Shamans were stunned, and their faces were filled with bewilderment.
"Since ancient times, it's easy to attack a city, but difficult to defend it!"
Chen said seriously, "In order to unify the entire Nanzhan Prefecture, we have to defend every city that we conquer! However, after three Seven Star Grand Magi attack the city, can they still rely on three Seven Star Grand Magi to defend the city? "
"This …" The nine great Shamans were taken aback again, and were instantly speechless.
"Once the war starts, the soldiers will need to be paid with Spiritual Stones! Equipment will need to be paid with Spiritual Stones! Mounts will need to be paid with Spiritual Stones! Rewarding meritorious warriors will need to be paid with Spiritual Stones! "
Chen Xiaobei continued to say, "After the war, treating the wounded will need to be paid with Spiritual Stones! Replenishing equipment and mounts will need to be paid with Spiritual Stones! Repairing the damaged city walls and gates will need to be paid with Spiritual Stones! Comforting the frightened people in the city will need to be paid with Spiritual Stones!
Without Spiritual Stones, our soldiers will definitely be dispirited, and their fighting spirit will be low! The frightened people will definitely be restless, and even rise up to resist! At this time, if a strong enemy attacks! How are we going to defend the city? "
"If we can't defend the city, we have to retreat! Isn't this just changing places after every shot? This kind of war is meaningless to unify the Nanzhan Prefecture! "
Chen Xiaobei's eyes focused, and he said seriously, "So, everyone, please remember! From now on, if we can't defend the victory after every battle, I'd rather not fight! Otherwise, not only will we not be able to establish our prestige, but we will also be laughed at by the world! "
Upon hearing that, all nine of the Honorable Shamans nodded their heads, agreeing with what Chen Xiaobei said.
"Your majesty is right … Our consideration is too shallow! If we can only attack the city and not defend it, we might as well not attack and save our energy! "
"That's right … The nine tribes are not rich to begin with! Once the war starts, our capital chain will break sooner or later! The ending is just like what your majesty said, we can only abandon the city and flee! "
"Your majesty is wise! If we want to win the first war, we have to stay calm and accumulate enough wealth first! "
…..
"Your majesty! Qincheng Entertainment Chamber of Commerce will think of a way to help you raise the funds for the military! "
Lan Mengcheng followed suit and said, "Beichen Cosmetics Chamber of Commerce will also do its best to raise funds!"
"Green Lotus Chamber of Commerce will also do its best! If your majesty can personally concoct a few batches of pills, you might be able to accumulate wealth in the shortest time possible! "
"I have basically taught you all the pill formulas that I know. So, there is no difference between you and me concocting the pills!"
Chen Xiaobei said calmly, "Anyway, I don't plan to start a war for the time being. The three of you can continue to run your business as usual. I will think of a way to earn more money! Before the soldiers and horses move, the rations must go first! In order to unify Nanzhan State, we must first build a business empire! "
Upon hearing that, everyone in the hall nodded their heads in agreement.
Then, Lan Mengcheng said, "Your majesty, if you want to find a new way to earn money, I have a suggestion!"
Chen Xiaobei raised his eyebrows and said, "You don't have to say it! I already know your suggestion! "
The corners of Lan Mengcheng's lips curled up. "If Your Majesty really does that, you will be able to earn a lot of money! Moreover, we can make a fortune every year, and each year we make more than the last! "
As soon as he said that, the surrounding people were all shocked.
Ding Shang Witch asked curiously, "What is it? How can we earn so much money every year? And every year, we earn more than the previous year? I have never seen something like this in my entire life! "
Clearly, Ding Shang Witch was an outstanding businessman! Unfortunately, Ding Shang Witch's ability to earn money was far weaker than Chen Xiaobei's three major chambers of commerce! That was why Ding Shang Witch was too embarrassed to say anything earlier!
Now that he heard that Chen Xiaobei had a new way to earn money, Ding Shang Witch was extremely curious!
