In Donglai County, in the solemn and solemn meeting hall, the top leaders of the Mubei coalition army gathered together.

On the main seat, there are three stone seats in turn, where the three great demon kings of Mubei are located.

On the left is the Peacock King Yunfei, in the middle is the Golden Lion King Konglin, on the right is the Qingjiao King Xuanzhen, and below are the high-level forces of all parties in Mubei.

The atmosphere in the hall was a bit relaxed, everyone spoke briskly, chatting and laughing, chatting, and after the last burly man entered and took a seat, Kong Lin opened his mouth and said.

"Thank you all for coming to this meeting in spite of your busy schedule. The purpose of calling everyone here today is to march south. With your concerted efforts, the entire Donglai County has now fallen into our hands. Qingzhou finally has a base, and with this as a barrier, we can go to the adjacent plains and the two counties of Beihai, and retreat to Baomubei."

"The Qingzhou Allied Forces fled without a fight, and handed over Donglai County to their hands, which shows that they are strong on the outside and dry in the middle. At this moment, the entire Qingzhou Allied Forces must be in panic. Everyone is in danger. If we don't take advantage of this good opportunity to enter the army, wait for it to recover. The outcome is unknown."

"After discussing with Taoist friends Xuanzhen and Yunfei, we agreed that we should not miss this opportunity and decided to go south to capture Pingyuan and Beihai County. What do you guys think?"

His voice stopped falling, and a person below immediately answered: "What Fellow Daoist Konglin said is exactly what I want. I heard that the retreat of the Qingzhou Allied Forces was due to changes in Tianyuan City. Several senior officials of Taixuanzong were dispatched back to the mountain gate. Now it is When they are weakest, as soon as our army arrives, they will flee in anticipation of the wind."

"As soon as the senior officials of Taixuanzong retreated, the Qingzhou coalition forces would be in a state of confusion. This is the best time for us to enter the army. We must not miss this opportunity. If they return to Qingzhou, it will not be so easy to win Pingyuan and Beihai County. At least the price to pay is much greater than it is now."

"It's not too late. If we seize the time to integrate our forces and march, I don't think any fellow Taoists here will object."

"If the army gathers and sets off, the marching speed is too slow. I intend to gather some elite monks, and only organize one or two legion troops to accompany them. I will recruit all the Tianling ships and Leizi ships of the coalition army to transport troops, and go straight to Pingyuan County and Beihai county."

"Tao Daoyou's words coincided with mine. The departure of the high-ranking officials of Emperor Taixuanzong in Qingzhou will definitely shake the hearts of the Qingzhou coalition forces. We are entering the army at this moment. Get as much ground as possible.”

.........

Several people talked one after another, and at this moment, a man outside the hall strode in, glanced at the crowd, and saluted Kong Lin above the main seat: "My ancestor, a man came from the outside, claiming to be a businessman." The envoy sent by the League said that the president of the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce had something important to see you and your lords. I asked him to wait, but he said that today is the day when the headquarters holds important meetings. He came here at this time specially to let I'll make a statement."

Kong Lin chuckled: "Since the man is here, why not see him, go and call him in! I'll see what he has to say."

"Yes." The man responded and left.

"The Qiankun Chamber of Commerce sent people here at this time, it must be to mediate the war and be a lobbyist for the Qingzhou coalition forces."

"I don't think so. The Qingzhou coalition army is retreating steadily. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is strong outside but capable in the middle. The Qiankun Chamber of Commerce has had a lot of contacts with us before. Although it eventually joined the Qingzhou coalition army, it was just an expedient measure under pressure. Today Seeing that the Allied Forces in Qingzhou have been defeated, and we have gained a firm foothold in Qingzhou, maybe we are here to ease the relationship."

"If the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce has the intention to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, we still have to fight for it."

"When you meet people later, you will know why they are here."

While speaking, a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears from the outer room had already arrived outside the hall, and went straight into the inner room. Jishou saluted and said: "My junior, Zhang Qing of the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce, has met all of you seniors."

Xuanzhen said expressionlessly: "Zhang Qing, since you know I'm waiting here to discuss matters, why bother?"

"The younger generation came to visit at the order of the president, and I have a few words to pass on to all the seniors. The former's army from your ministry went south, and this chamber of commerce and many chambers of commerce in Qingzhou didn't want to get involved, let alone make enemies with your ministry. Under the persecution of the Taoist sect and the aristocratic family, I have to express my position, I hope your ministry will understand this matter."

Kong Lin smiled and said: "If your Chamber of Commerce can rein in the precipice and turn to the light, we are still willing to cooperate with the Chamber of Commerce. But if your Chamber of Commerce continues to support the Qingzhou Allied Forces and oppose the headquarters, we can't blame the headquarters for not being sympathetic."

"The president has a letter written by himself for the three seniors Xuanzhen, Konglin, and Yunfei." Zhang Qing flipped through his hands, took out three letters, and presented them with both hands.

The three of them took pictures of the letter, opened it, Yunfei sneered, rubbed his hands together, and the paper turned into powder: "Go back and tell your president, if you send someone to be a lobbyist next time to intercede for the Qingzhou coalition forces, He must come and go."

Xuanzhen also said coldly: "Qingzhou coalition army was defeated and fled in embarrassment. Donglai County surrendered. Taixuanzong had internal and external troubles and was too busy to take care of himself. The outcome of the Qingzhou war is a foregone conclusion. Once our army arrives, the land of Pingyuan and Beihai counties will be at your fingertips. It's really ridiculous that the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce tried to persuade you to make peace at this time. Tell your president, if the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce rein in the precipice at this time, abandon the dark and turn to the bright, the headquarters can still accept cooperation with it on an equal footing. Qingzhou will not have an inch of foothold for you."

Kong Lin also opened his mouth and said: "The two armies are fighting without beheading the envoy. I think you are the envoy sent by the Chamber of Commerce. I won't make things difficult for you today. You can go!"

"Farewell, junior." The fat-headed and big-eared man turned and left without saying a word.

"Fellow Daoist Konglin, what did the letter from the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce say?" After one of them left, the person below asked.

"Fellow Daoist Tao, let's see for yourself!" Kong Lin handed him the letter in his hand: "Using the loosening of Tianyuan City's seal, the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce advised us to suspend fighting with the Qingzhou coalition forces and prepare for the invasion of the demon world with all our strength. It's to buy time."

"I think we'll divide into two groups. On one side, Fellow Daoist Xuanzhen, Fellow Daoist Tao, Fellow Daoist Wu, Fellow Daoist Ling, and Fellow Daoist Lu will lead the elite to take Pingyuan County."

"Let the group lead by Fellow Daoist Yunfei, Fellow Daoist Ding, Fellow Daoist Hou, Fellow Daoist Ning, and Fellow Daoist Gan to take Beihai County."

"I sit in Donglai County with other Taoist friends, and the army will then set off to support the two fronts. I wonder what you guys think?"

One person replied: "Although several high-ranking monks of Taixuanzong left Qingzhou, the Qingzhou coalition army has also strengthened its defenses accordingly. If the troops are divided into two groups, they may not have enough troops to annex the two counties. If the stalemate is in Beihai and Yuanyuan County, After a long time, Taixuanzong and others returned to Qingzhou, and the war will fall into a stalemate again. I think it is better to cut off one finger than to hurt ten fingers. Instead of attacking in two ways, it is better to merge one place and win a county first."

"My opinion is the same as Ling Daoyou. Once the troops are dispersed, there is a risk of being defeated one by one. It is better to take Beihai County together. The retreating troops of Donglai County are all going to Pingyuan County. Compared with Pingyuan County, Beihai County It's a bone that's easy to gnaw. Moreover, during the civil strife in Qingzhou, Beihai County was the main source of rebellion. Ten to eight of the county's sectarian families were relatively weak. We should take it down without much effort. Beihai County."

……

The moon was rising and the stars were densely covered. In Huayuan County, outside the Bailu Pavilion, a ray of light shot down from a remote mountain peak, revealing Tangning's figure. There was already someone waiting on it. It was Ding Jianyang. He slowly got up and looked With a smile on his face: "You are here."

"Are you sure the news is reliable?"

"Don't worry! I can guarantee that within five days, Xu Linyuan will definitely come here."

Tang Ning's face remained calm, but she was half-believing and half-doubting, but Ding Jianyang made the arrangements in just a few months and firmly grasped Xu Linyuan's itinerary.

You must know that this is Pingyuan County, and Ding Jianyang has left the Nether Sea organization, and now he is serving in the coalition forces, so he must not get the intelligence support of the Nether Sea.

It is unbelievable that Xu Linyuan can be designed in such a short period of time as a cultivator who transforms himself into a god. Many possibilities flashed through his mind, and he asked, "Is there any important property in the Xu family?"

"No."

"Then how sure are you that he will pass by here within five days?"

"He didn't pass by here, his destination is here, we ambushed here in advance, and when he arrives, we can take him down in one fell swoop."

Tangning glanced at him and looked around. All she could see was a barren hill with a vast river to the east. How could Xu Linyuan come to such a remote and desolate place.

"What method did you use to lure him here?"

"You don't have to worry about it." Ding Jianyang pointed to the big river in the east, and said confidently: "I cast a big bait for him in this big river, and he couldn't help but take the bait. Within five days, he will definitely appear .”

Tangning narrowed her eyes and looked at the surging river in the distance, "You really like setting up ambushes in the water. When you killed Ma Shouyang last time, you also set up bait in the lake. What treasure did you throw in this time?"

Ding Jianyang smiled slightly, quite mysteriously: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed."

"Can you make sure he comes alone?"

"Impossible, he will come here quietly alone, and will not leak any news, let alone bring other people."

"Let me tell you first, if he has other helpers, I won't take the risk." After speaking, Tangning sat down cross-legged, quietly waiting for the time.
