The Age of Global City-States: I Can Increase a Thousand Times

Chapter 128
"What happened to what you saw today?" Su Fan asked with a smile.

"Based on what we see today, the lord of your city is nothing more than a short-sighted person!"

"Bold!" Hua Mulan, who was standing next to Su Fan at this time, stood up and scolded Qian unreasonably.

Su Fan stopped Hua Mulan and looked at Yu Qian with a smile, "Oh? I don't know Minister Yu Qian, why did you say that about me? Is it my fault if I don't save your city?"

"I came here today to ask for help, but I am also saving your city. The seventh-level city lord has broken through several cities. Could it be that because of the two mountains, you will easily let your city survive? Compared with the temptation, the sixth-level city is bigger than my city!"

Su Fan nodded, looked around at the crowd, and then said to Qian: "Well, Minister Yu Qian, don't rush away, rest in the shogunate for a while, I will discuss with everyone, and then I will give you an answer, you see How are you?"

While Yu Qian was still hesitating, he heard someone coughing lightly from the subordinate behind him, and Yu Qian immediately said: "I hope the city lord will consider it carefully! The officer has resigned."

After Yu Caisheng walked out of the meeting room with Yu Qian and others, Su Fan stood up, went to the crowd and said: "Everyone must have their own ideas, let me express my opinion first, my point of view It was prepared to fight this war."

The opinions of Chen Qun, Mi Fang, Zhu Wen and others still tend to be self-defense and not to send troops. Their point of view is that there is no need to be an enemy of a seventh-level city lord again, and if possible, they should make friends with him.

The fifth-level cities had little connection with each other, and there was no interest involved. It was completely unnecessary. It cost a lot of money and the lives of soldiers to do this risky thing.

Moreover, if you win the battle, the resources you get may not be worth your own losses. In the end, all these family properties that have been saved through hard work may be lost because of this war.

Besides, Su Fan was about to leave the house. Naturally, he would not be able to launch a large-scale plundering campaign without him, but the construction of the city required resource allocation. Where did the resources come from?What about construction?
At the same time, facing a city lord who is one level higher than ours, it is very difficult to annihilate him. If he does not annihilate, the opponent may make a comeback.

Even if it can be delayed for three months when Su Fan leaves without fighting, three months later, the fifth-level city must have been breached, and the city lord of the seventh-level city will definitely be entrenched near the main city, waiting for an opportunity to retaliate .

This is just to say that if the battle is won, if the battle is defeated, then the efforts for so long will come to naught, and the main city will fall into a situation beyond redemption.

Chen Qun's remarks were unanimously approved by the ministers, and anti-war remarks began to resound in the hall for a while.

But at this moment, one person stood up and expressed a different opinion from the others. This person was Zhang Juzheng who had never spoken.

"City Lord, I have different opinions from other officials. I think this battle should be fought and must be fought!"

"Uncle, tell me, why do you disagree with other ministers?"

"For this campaign, it is indeed very difficult, but the seventh-level city lord also has a lot of difficulties. They attacked three cities in a row, and their troops must have lost a lot. At the same time, they stretched the battle line so long , the source of troops is also the biggest problem.”

"Well, that's right, I'm afraid the seventh-level city lord is also worried about this matter, otherwise he wouldn't have gathered in Lincheng at this time, instead of taking advantage of the situation to attack the fifth-level city." Su Fan said .

"That's right, compared to this, our supply of soldiers will be very fast. It's only two mountains, and the slowest journey is no more than seven or eight days. We can continue to replenish the source of troops, but they can't!"

Having said that, Su Fan's glasses lit up. What Zhang Juzheng said was exactly what he wanted to hear.

"And the most important point is that we must be prepared for danger in times of peace. Since the seventh-level city lord has already taken actions to occupy three cities, this proves that he is ambitious. If he doesn't attack me today, what about tomorrow? Tiger How can you allow others to sleep soundly beside you?"

Su Fan nodded in agreement and said, "What the uncle said is right in my heart, and this is also my idea of ​​going to war. The small five-level Lincheng seems to have nothing to do with our side, but without this line of defense, can the two mountains resist it?" ?”

"What the city lord said is very true. We need to understand the truth that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold. When the seventh-level city occupies the fifth-level city, it will become our new city. Our difficulties will only increase!"

Liu Bowen also stood up: "Yes, everyone may be worried about the construction that we have worked so hard to save. If we go to war, we will lose everything, but I think that if we dare not send troops today, what we have saved so hard in the future will be lost." Resources will also go to waste!"

Zhang Juzheng said: "Therefore, it is necessary to send troops to aid. It is better to fight early than to fight late. Only after the fight is over can we start construction with peace of mind!"

After listening to Zhang Juzheng's speech, Su Fangao said: "Very well, what Zhang Juzheng said is exactly the problem we have to face now and in the future. Now we are a little more comfortable, but we cannot be frightened by high-level enemies because of this." courage."

Speaking of which, Su Fan walked up the steps and looked around everyone, "When we built the city, every enemy we encountered was stronger than us, but were we afraid? No, even today, we can't look down on ourselves. gone."

After taking a sip of water, Su Fan sat down on the chair and said, "It's not said that any war has an absolute chance of winning. All we can rely on is to make reasonable use of the right time, place and people to ensure that no mistakes are made. Since we are fighting, we must There is an idea of ​​​​annihilating it!"

Chen Qun hesitated to say something, but after thinking about it, he closed his mouth and backed away.

"I understand that some of you are worried about what we will do if we are defeated. If we shrink today, we may not win tomorrow. We must have the determination to win and prepare for the worst!"

"Worst plan?" Mi Fang murmured involuntarily.

"That's right, the worst plan is that we are defeated. We can completely start over and rise again to avenge our revenge, instead of sitting here peacefully waiting to die!"

Su Fan's impassioned state also inspired the confidence of the people below him. Looking at Su Fan on the stage, everyone glanced at each other and echoed in unison: "Let the city lord arrange it!"
