Liuli City, the city lord's mansion.

In the backyard of the city lord's mansion, in the schoolyard.

A strong middle-aged man, wearing armor, was fighting with another man with a sword. The two of them waved their swords at their own speed, and they were hard to solve. The sound of tingling and ding-and-dang echoed in the school field one after another.

The two people who fought for about a quarter of an hour later, the younger one took the initiative to retreat and said, "The city lord, the weak position is not strong enough, and the successor is weak, and he can no longer take action."

The strong middle-aged man looked quite proud, but his face looked unsatisfied. He shook his head and said, "Dorotuo, your martial arts skills must continue to improve. You are a brave general under my command. Such physical condition is not possible."

The strong middle-aged man is Alaya, the lord of Liuli City.

A younger man named Dorotuo, is a general of Alaya, both civil and military, and is a wise general.

Duluotuo smiled bitterly and said, "City Lord, you are both civil and military, and you are very skilled in martial arts. Although I try to cultivate both civil and military, it is much worse. After all, your talent is much better than a low-level position."

"Hahaha……"

After hearing this, Alaya couldn't help laughing.

The laughter was very proud.

In fact, Alaya is now in his early forties. Although he has good care and good physical fitness, his temples are already gray.

On weekdays, Alaya not only handles government affairs, but also practices martial arts to strengthen her body. In Alaya's concept, being in good health and being able to live for a long time is the fundamental reason. Otherwise, no matter how talented and intelligent it is, it will be useless.

In the history of the Sarto Kingdom, there were three monarchs, all of whom were extremely smart, both civil and military, and their methods were very powerful. When they first took office, they worked hard to govern and wiped out the unjust ministers of the court, whether they were in the court or local officials, they were completely renewed.

But the longest man, who had been a king for six years, eventually died of illness.

When the emperor dies, the people die.

Then, he fell into chaos again.

In Alaya's view, no matter what happens, being able to see openly and live long is the kingly way.

Now the emperor of Sardo has been in power for many years and has worked hard to govern. This is exactly how Sardo can defeat the Baixiang Kingdom, and it will not be as difficult as the Sardo Kingdom in history to be suppressed by the Baixiang Kingdom.

After laughing, Alaya ordered, "Let's go, go back to the study."

"yes!"

Dorotuo bowed and responded.

Alaya took a handkerchief and continued to walk while wiping. The expression on his face gradually became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Dorotu, the southern White Elephant Kingdom has been destroyed. Although the army of Qi stopped for a short time, it will no longer continue to move north."

"But, according to my observation, the Emperor of Qi was extremely enterprising and the army stopped at Giant Elephant City, which was impossible. Therefore, our Liuli City would definitely face war."

"What do you think about this matter?"

When talking about Qi State, Alaya's face became more worried.

The current situation is quite unfavorable.

Duolotuo said seriously: "City Lord, in my opinion, the reason why the Qi people are arrogant and rampant is not because the Qi people are so powerful, but because the people from Baixiang Kingdom are all mud."

"The White Elephant Kingdom and our Sarto Kingdom have been suppressed and even lost their territory. Now that Qi is coming, it is even more powerful to wipe out the military forces of the Haixi Empire. Under such circumstances, the people from all over the Baixiang Kingdom have surrendered, and the local people in the Baixiang Kingdom even supported Qi because of the abolition of slavery."

"So that the White Elephant Kingdom lost its foundation, which is the reason for the demise of the White Elephant Kingdom."

Dorotuo was quite fighting spirit and said, "Now we must block Qi State. We even defeat Qi State's army in one battle and gain the advantage of fighting. In this way, our Sata State can stand firm."

Alaya smiled and said, "Your idea is pretty good. But Qi State is not that simple. The city lord has carefully investigated. Qi State's strength is very powerful."

"Not only, Qi's weapons are more advanced and more powerful. It is also because the emperors of Qi and the people under the command of Qi's emperor are all good at fighting."

"Those who lead troops to fight are not afraid that you value the enemy, but that you are afraid that you will despise the enemy."

Alaya said: "Once you have already contemptuousness when fighting, you have lost the fighting spirit of the past. Next, if you want to succeed, it will be extremely difficult. You may even fail at any time."

Dorotuo thought about it and said seriously: "The city lord is wise."

Alaya and Doro carried it into the room and sat down.

Alaya said: "The army of our Liuli City is less than 20,000. It is impossible to defend Liuli City with such a little force. The military front of Qi State swept away the Tianlong City, Juxiang City and other places of Baixiang State. With a large number of Qi State's troops, it would be easy to destroy us."

"We have to resist, to be honest, it is difficult to ascend to the sky. What I am considering at the moment is that once the army of Qi comes, our primary choice is to guard. Further, we are asking for help from His Majesty the Emperor of the Capital."

Alaya said, "Dorotu, what do you think?"

Dorotuo knew that Alaya was asking for advice at this time, but he had his own idea and said seriously: "The city lord, Bei Zhi believes that he can fight."

Alaya said: "The number of troops in Qi is at least 60,000 to 70,000, or even more. However, our troops are only 20,000. In addition, Qi is more firepower and more weapons. Are you sure you want to fight? I have explained it just now. But you didn't listen. Do you really want to fight?"

He originally believed that Dorotuo had understood his intentions.

It seems that there is still no one now.

The young man Dorotuo is just a young man who has never failed and is still a little proud.

He is a newcomer and has a high opinion of himself.

In this case, failure is very likely.

Dorotuo thought about it, and saw that Alaya insisted, he stopped mentioning the war and took the initiative to say, "City Lord, I understand the humble position. Now, everything is focused on seeking stability."

Alaya nodded and said, "Go down and rectify the soldiers. The Qi army cannot keep holding the troops and will definitely come north. So be prepared."

"yes!"

Doro stood up and responded, then walked away.

Alaya sat alone in the hall, looking at Dorotuo's leaving back, looking a little disappointed.

Dorotuo is still a little short of it.

It still needs to be tempered.

But will Congress Qi give him a chance to hone Dorotu?

Alaya sighed in his heart.

A world of great struggle.

A big change!

Alaya thought quietly, and after a moment, a servant entered and bowed and said, "The city lord, there is someone from outside the mansion. He claims to be your old friend, named Sejiantuo."

Alaya widened her eyes, and a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes.

Sai Jiantuo is here.

This was the prime minister of the Baixiang Kingdom in the past, but I heard that he surrendered to Qi Kingdom.

Why did it come?

Alaya's mind changed, and in a blink of an eye, he already understood. This time, Sejiantuo came here, perhaps with a purpose.

Alaya ordered: "Please!"

The attendant stood up to inform him, and soon after, two figures entered. The person in charge was Sejiantuo. The one who followed was Master Yongxu, who was responsible for protecting Sejiantuo's safety.

After the two of them stood still, Sejiantuo smiled and said, "Lord of Alaya City."

Alaya said: "Mr. Sejiantuo, please sit down."

He immediately said, "Who is this?"

Sai Jiantuo explained: "This is the previous abbot of Shitian Temple in Juxiang City, Master Yongxu. This time he came to Liuli City with me, and he was with me."

"Ah, it's Master Yongxu."

Alaya was a little excited and said with a smile: "I have heard of the reputation of a mage for a long time. When I was in Giant Elephant City in the past, I heard that it was just a side of the fate and I never had the chance to see the mage. When I arrived at the country of Sata, I had no chance and could only stay in the country of Sata. I didn't expect that I could still see Master Yongxu."

Yongxu smiled and said, "The layman praised Miao, and I am a monk who is a monk, so I should not be so respected by the city lord."

"Come on, please sit down."

Alaya spoke again.
