Chapter 80 Rich Woman (2 in 1)
Lu Chuan couldn't believe the news, and immediately thought of attacking Poland.
The problem is that the blitzkrieg against Poland is not that fast, right? Moreover, two legendary sects actually chose to fall to Jingguo. This choice directly established Jingguo's victory. The rest was just a matter of how much time it took to defeat Weiguo.
According to the news coming back from Utopia, Jingguo almost instantly wiped out the resistance of Weiguo, and even spent most of the time on the march. The strength displayed and the momentum of swallowing up thousands of miles were shocking.
Jingguo's attack on Wei was a conspiracy. As the suzerain of Weiguo, Wuguo naturally had the responsibility to protect Weiguo. However, Weiguo lost its capital in less than a day. Should Wuguo still want to help?
Jingguo's blitzkrieg has succeeded. If Wuguo's Eastern Army goes to rescue them, they will be dragged into the quagmire of Weiguo's war. If they don't go, Jingguo will continue to threaten Wuguo's eastern border after digesting Weiguo.
Of course, Jing Guo's blitzkrieg against Wei Guo was not without cost. Although Wei Guo allowed Wu Guo to take advantage of it this time, Jing Guo still launched a long-planned surprise attack.
This emerging overlord in the north has shown its fangs, and the alliance in the east that originally united to resist Wu Kingdom will be extremely wary of Jing Kingdom.
After all, although the Wu State was strong, it had not crossed the Dongji Mountains for more than two hundred years, but the Jing State actually took action against the Wei State.
Moreover, although Weiguo lost the city gates and captured the capital, they still did not give up resistance. They still had two inherited sects and many ordinary sects. This was a battle to destroy the country. Of course, Weiguo had to fight to the end with the ferocious invaders.
However, Jingguo's sudden action was extremely beneficial to Utopia's peace delegation in the imperial capital of Wuguo. If Jingguo wanted to go to war with Wuguo in the north and east at the same time, whether Wuguo's western border could maintain peace with Utopia would depend on it.
becomes particularly critical.
For a time, even Utopia's attitude became ambiguous. Originally, there were many voices in Utopia that were closer to Jingguo, arguing and resisting.
Since Jing Guo has such a tough attitude towards the war this time, he can definitely fight with Jing Guo. Why should he negotiate for peace to give Wu Guo a chance to breathe and space to move?
The theoretical basis for those who hold this view is that during the Three Kingdoms period, Shu allied with Wu to resist Cao.
The lean camel of Wu State is bigger than the horse. If Utopia negotiates peace with Wu State, it will give the other party every opportunity to defeat Jing State. If they really free up their hands to deal with Jing State, then Utopia will be in trouble.
Those who support peace talks also have theoretical basis. During World War II, the example of the Japanese Empire sitting on a mountain and watching tigers fight and prospering silently by selling arms is right before our eyes.
The more fierce the fight between Jingguo and Wuguo, the better the opportunity will be for Utopia. Both sides will need the vitality weapons and talismans produced by Utopia, and they will take advantage of the opportunity of war to plunder resources.
The WeChat group became lively again. It seemed that Jing Guo's move not only hit Wu Guo in the face, but also changed the situation of Utopia.
...
Lu Chuan felt as if he was caught between two eras. On the one hand, he was in the information age. Every day, he could learn about the war in Weiguo and the latest status of the peace talks in the imperial capital through his mobile phone.
On the other side, it was in the northern border of the Wu Kingdom where information was limited. When most people in Beining City knew that Utopia had sent a mission to negotiate peace, many days had passed.
Public opinion in Beining City basically supports the peace negotiation. After all, the North is very far away from Utopia, but everyone knows that as long as the Western Legion negotiates peace, they can send people to support the war in the North.
However, things will definitely not be as good as people imagined. Even if the Western Legion provides support, they may not come to the north.
After Jing State captured Taiqing, the capital of Wei, on August 28, King Wei fled to the imperial capital of Wu State overnight to seek help. On August 30, Wu State's Eastern Army officially stationed in Wei State's Donghua County to confront Jing's army.
Jingguo's Yangmouwuguo can only forcefully fight on Weiguo's territory and keep the enemy at bay. It is better than Jingguo digesting Weiguo and then advancing to the east.
Wu Guo established a foothold in Donghua County, while Jing Guo took over the other two counties of Wei Guo, Linhu County and the capital Tai'an County, and then continuously dispatched regular soldiers from the country to gradually take over the cities of the two counties, as well as the cooking guards.
The sect of the country.
Judging from the results, it really looks a bit like Germany and the bear carving up Poland on Blue Star.
Utopia's final resolution was still to negotiate for peace, but it insisted on the two conditions previously proposed. After Wu State's Eastern Army was dispatched on August 30, the mission officially sent a note to Emperor Wu. If Wu State was unwilling to agree to the peace terms, then the mission
Will return to Utopia immediately.
This is clearly an attempt to take advantage of the situation. Utopia has put forward many conditions this time, including politics, economy, people's livelihood, and resources. Concession and immigration are the two most overbearing ones. Originally, they were reserved for bargaining with Wu Guo slowly.
of.
But now that the situation has changed, Utopia can be more domineering and tough. Anyway, the peace talks between the two countries are only a temporary measure, and sooner or later the two countries will start war again.
Emperor Wu naturally hated King Wei for losing the capital in less than a day, but he had to choose between worse and worse.
The Wu Kingdom has a rich heritage. Among the more than one hundred descendants left by Emperor Tianwu, there are more than twenty extraordinary supreme beings, not to mention that these royal families still have descendants.
It's just that after the failure of the struggle to seize the direct descendants, in addition to the princes who were willing to stay, there were also many talented and talented descendants of Tianwu who were unwilling to fail and chose to leave the mainland and go to the endless sea to find islands to establish new states or
The sect is spreading its branches and leaves.
Of course Wu Yue could ask for help from the royal family on the sea, and I believe they would also be willing to return to the mainland and become a "part of" the Wu Kingdom. However, he would not choose to lead a wolf into his house until the end of the road.
This is why he is willing to negotiate a peace with Utopia to free up the Western Army, rather than mobilize the strongest Southern Army.
Is it true that the Southern Legion, the largest and most skilled army in the Wu Kingdom, is stationed on the shores of the Endless Sea all year round just to defend against the invasion of sea beasts?
Of course not. Those descendants of Tianwu in the Endless Sea who were unwilling to fail in seizing the direct line and left for other places may also be waiting for the day when the Wu Kingdom weakens.
On August 31, Emperor Wu formally signed a peace treaty with Utopia.
...
The news of the successful peace negotiation reached the northern border faster, and on September 2, the city of Beining also knew the news.
However, Lu Chuan and Jiang Mo had known the news for a long time, and since the peace negotiations came into effect, the Western Legion began a large-scale mobilization of personnel, heading to the northern and eastern territories respectively.
In the past few days, Jing's army was still bombarding Zhenbeiguan without any pain, which was more like mocking Wu Guo than attacking the city.
This war scene country mobilized a large amount of troops and supplies, strong men from the sects, as well as arms and mercenaries purchased from Utopia, all of which cost money. The total amount of loans borrowed from Utopia has almost reached a six-digit dollar amount.
.
Taking over the two counties of Wei State greatly eased Jing State's economic pressure. Jing State conquered the capital of Wei in one day and quickly sealed the border. Many of Wei State's properties had no time to transfer and would soon be lost to Jing State.
National plunder becomes a war bonus.
Now that Wu Guo and Utopia have formally negotiated peace, they can finally free up their hands. Perhaps there will be big moves in the next war.
In addition to attending international events these days, Lu Chuan has also been busy with his own business.
With the help of the recliner, or with Lu Chuan's own unremitting efforts, more than 90% of the meridians and acupoints in his body have been penetrated, and the meridians are about to be opened.
Opening up the meridians and acupuncture points consumed a lot of energy, but Lu Chuan couldn't stop sucking in so fast. The energy left by Zhang Sanwen's clone hadn't even been used up, and he was already on the verge of breaking through.
In addition to spiritual practice, he has also made great progress in his work at Utopia. From August 25th to today, he used a total of 9 questions to finally get the accurate birth time of Li Xia, the next 16-year-old girl in Utopia.
Within 5 seconds.
She was born between 9:43:45 and 43:50 in the evening on September 14, 266 in the Tianwu Calendar. In more than ten days, Utopia will use the [Time Stop] talisman to test whether it can prevent time travel.
Of course, he very much hopes that Zhang Sanwen's experimental plan will succeed. On the one hand, Jiang Mo will turn sixteen in more than a year. After getting along with him for more than 20 days, he doesn't want this quirky little girl to turn into another
people.
On the other hand, this is also his first achievement in Utopia. With the achievement, the bosses will pay more attention to him. After all, every child in the future will need him to accurately determine the birth time.
After the peace talks were completed, Yu Huan sent a message to Lu Chuan, saying that he was very satisfied with his law-abiding behavior during this period. Yu Huan would first go back to Utopia with the mission, and would return to Wu Kingdom in a few days to check on the progress of his swordsmanship.
Naturally, Lu Chuan would not let go of such a ready-made courier, so he asked Yu Huan to help him replenish the used flashes, blinders, and a few more offensive talismans.
It's not that he looked down on Huo Changge's Sword Penetrating the Rainbow, but the Talisman at the peak of Ruyijing was indeed a bit weak to be honest. If the two people he killed recently were both spiritual cultivators, he would really be worried about whether it could break through the defense.
When Lu Chuan went to inquire about the price, he received bad news from Li Huaijin. After the peace talks between Utopia and Wu Kingdom, the idea of selling arms was basically determined. The high-level talisman Lu Chuan wanted was definitely a hot commodity, and the price had recently increased.
It has risen tremendously.
Moreover, Utopia still has a few big business owners with some spare cash who have started hoarding arms and driving up prices in advance. It is basically impossible for him to buy 10 yuan stones for a flash like last time.
Lu Chuan looked at the latest quotation sent by Li Huaijin and flashed Talisman as a hot-selling product. The latest discounted price has reached 20 yuan stones, and the price increases of other products are also very alarming.
Even if it’s expensive, you have to buy it.
Not only is the flash expensive, Qin Xiao's Ye Ye is even more expensive. The friendship price is 25 yuan stones each, which is even lower than the price given to the Ministry of Commerce.
The last three cards with one leaf blindness were given by Zhang Sanwen. This time he couldn't let the boss pay for it. Lu Chuan gritted his teeth and bought two more cards. Plus two flash cards, basically the yuan he got from Lin Jingfeng.
All the stones paid their respects.
No wonder Qin Xiao, with such a strong golden finger, joined the Science Department. Making a talisman requires dozens of yuan stones. Is there any need to fight in exchange for resources?
Wait a minute, so Miss Qin Xiao is a rich woman!
...
When Lu Chuan picked up Jiang Mo after school, the little girl was not very interested.
Along with the news about Wu Guo and Utopia, there is also news about Beining College students and some academic staff taking turns to switch defenses.
People like Huo Changge and others are not originally part of the military. They should focus on training college students and should not stay in Zhenbeiguan for a long time.
Jiang Mo heard many classmates discussing in the college today that reinforcements from the Western Legion would soon be felt, and senior students and some Ruyijing teachers would return from Zhenbeiguan to Beining City to take turns in the next two days.
But she just asked Lao Jiang, Li Qian and Lao Huo yesterday, and they both said they couldn't come back.
"It's a day off. Uncle Jiang and the others are the main force. It's normal if they don't take their turn. Maybe it will be their turn in a few days. Come on, let's go get something to eat. Which restaurant is it our turn today?" Lu Chuan comforted
road.
"Ningyuan Restaurant, their charcoal-grilled Golden Feather Falcon is very famous. I have never tried it."
Jiang Mo also cheered up. She didn't just know the news that Lao Jiang and the others couldn't come back today. It was just that she heard that other relatives and friends in the college had come back, which aroused her emotions again.
When the two of them walked out of the college, they found that the city was much livelier. Some of the sergeants from the Western Legion who had carried them in advance had arrived in Beining City, and the students and academic staff who were on rotation at Zhenbeiguan were also returning one after another.
This was even more true when we arrived at Ningyuan Restaurant. Even the lobby was full of people. As soon as we entered the door, we could hear someone celebrating someone's return from Zhenbeiguan.
The two of them packed up some of the restaurant's signature dishes and prepared to go home and eat as usual. On the way back, they chatted about Huo Changge's gossip as they took turns taking turns.
I like girls, but I have never been successful.
When they reached the intersection, they discovered that there was another person standing at the door. It was the male protagonist of the gossip topic, Huo Changge.
This guy was standing at the door. When he saw Lu Chuan and Jiang Mo appearing at the intersection, he flipped his hair and waved his hand, thinking he was cool.
Jiang Mo yelled "Yeah" and ran towards him, threw herself into Huo Changge's arms, beat him with her fists, and complained that Huo Changge was a liar and a bastard for not telling her that he could come back.
Huo Changge, the idiot, was laughing loudly and asked Jiang Mo, "Are you surprised or not?" It was not until Jiang Mo slowly stopped talking and his body began to twitch slightly that he realized that he had made the little girl cry, and again
He hurriedly comforted her.
Lu Chuan watched the scene in front of him without stepping forward to disturb him. Compared with the pair of senior brothers and sisters who were like family, he was more like a friend who came to help take care of the children for a few days.
Good to be back. Huo Changge is back. Lao Jiang and the others should be able to come back for a rest in a while. If they don't have to go to Zhenbeiguan as a whole family in the future, Jiang Mo won't need to take care of himself.
Lu Chuan habitually closed his eyes and looked around, and suddenly saw that the vitality in Huo Changge's body had become much darker, and even his spiritual roots seemed a little sluggish.
