Murong Xiu gradually came to his senses as he looked at Murong Bowen and Zuo Qian and said in a rather meaningful manner.

"Now that the situation is like this, what do you think?"

"Ah, my lord, I think it is time to call off the war with troops." Zuo Qian and Murong Bo Wen were also a little surprised when they heard Murong Xiu's sudden announcement. Zuo Dong reacted quickly, so he too blurted out the same thing.

"Mm, what kind of truce?" Mu Rong Xiu continued.

Milord, I'm talking about nurturing a war, not a truce." Zuo Qian also had a serious look on his face, while Murong Xiu also reacted at the same time. He looked at Zuo Qian with a different expression. Zuo Qian might not be his opponent in other areas, but in terms of strategy and strategy, only the Prime Minister would have the ability to do so.

"Tell me about it." Murong Xiu nodded and indicated for Zuo Qian to continue.

At this moment, I, Xi Li, have already been defeated like a mountain, so I might as well leave the headquarters unharmed. At this moment, only the enemies in both the north and back sides of the city have been able to use two sides of a pincer attack to cross the border. However, as far as I know, that Cang did not completely destroy the city and only burned the provisions and other things inside before capturing the soldiers. Zuo Qian looked at Murong Xiu and saw that he was still looking at him.

"If our army still has an elite force, it would be possible to place some people in that city. After all, even if the Eastern Ping Army and the Southern Kingdom know about our defeat this time around, they would not dare to be rash. After all, they are only a small border country. "And …"

"Move to the left, that's where you're wrong." Mu Rong Xiu suddenly interrupted him. He started to agree with Zuo Qian's words, but the last sentence made him frown.

"Let me tell you this. It's not that they don't have any strength, rather, it's just that their strength is not too far from my current West Li. Do you know why they aren't willing to send troops to suppress me?" Murong Xiu asked as he gradually stood up.

"Why?"

Currently, the world is divided into the East, West, North and North, with the West, North and Yue being two of the great powers. The Southern Kingdom is the closest to our country, and Dongping has also set up a defensive line in our country. After Murong Xiu finished speaking, he paused for a moment before continuing.

It is just like how there are four sides of a boat. If one of them falls into the water, the boat will no longer be in a balanced state and it will fall down. Once I fall, the other three countries will definitely not be willing to give up this resource to others.

"I understand, my lord. You're saying that if the Blue Sky truly breaks our West Li, then once the West Li breaks down, the Northern Yue won't dare to so easily take over this entire situation. The Southern Kingdom and Dongping, who are closest to us, will immediately come and take over all the resources here, but since this battle is being fought by the Northern Alliance, naturally Helian will not allow us to give this to these two countries for free, right?" Murong Bo Wen also came to a realization and said to Murong Xiu.

"Yes, indeed." Mu Rong Xiu sneered, but realized that Zuo Qian was still thinking about something.

"Prime Minister, do you have any other ideas? Just say it out loud. There is no need to worry about it anymore."

"I am thinking that if the Northern Yue were to bring the army over at this moment, even the Eastern Ping and Southern Kingdom would not dare to interfere unless …"

"Unless what?" Seeing that Zuo Qian wanted to say something, Murong Xiu blurted out a question.

"Unless those two countries have already agreed on it."

Mu Rong Xiu was startled when he heard Zuo Dong's words. He hadn't thought about it. He looked at Zuo Dong with narrowed eyes as he asked.

"Then, according to your words, how should we defend now?"

"According to what sire has said, at this moment, our country has about five to five men left, even compared to the Southern Kingdom." According to sire, at this moment, our country has about five to five less troops than our country, even compared to our country's Southern Kingdom. Zuo Qian also let out a long sigh when he said this.

"That's right, that's true. That's why we need to organize a new team. We also need to fight with the Northern Yue again!" When Murong Xiu heard Zuo Dong's words, he came to his senses. It was just as he had said: once he lost this time, he would immediately face the possibility of being split up by the other three countries. However, the only way to break through now was to see if Helian Gan was willing to accept it.

"However, I, Xi Li, would be able to shatter a few of their teeth even if I were to be trapped in the end. Thus, these countries will not make a move against me, Xi Li, in the near future." Zuo Qian continued to speak as he looked at Murong Xiu and spoke.

"Lord Murong, how long will it take to train men like Beard."

"Heh, it's impossible without five years." When Murong Xiu heard Zuo Dong's words, he also understood Zuo Dong's thoughts. His heart was also filled with bitterness.

"Five years. What if it's a bit more than that?" Zuo Wuji continued to ask.

"It will only take three years!" When Murong Xiu heard Zuo Qing's question, he also laughed. His eyes seemed to have recovered a bit.

"I understand what you mean. Hmm, leave this matter to me." Murong Xiu thought for a while before answering and continued.

"In addition, the war over at Dongping Province has reaped quite a bit of benefits from us. They did not dare to take action this time. With me here, they would not dare to come and take my life." Mu Rong Xiu's gaze suddenly turned cold as he spoke in a cold voice. Zuo Qian and Murong Bo Wen looked at each other as if they understood that there were people from the West Pingguo Kingdom stationed there.

"What I need to know right now is how to recuperate. This is a process." Murong Xiu's tone of voice also eased up. Sensing the change in Murong Xiu's tone, he stepped forward and said confidently.

"Leave that to me. I'll let the army cultivate by gathering them together. I'll raise them with the greatest amount of resources and wealth in the past few years. The day when the treasury runs out of food will be the time for me to fight against Beiming Yu!" Zuo Qing's momentum rose as she spoke. At this point in time, there was nothing left for him to do. He could only fight with his life on the line.

"Alright, as you have said, you can do anything you want. I will inform you about the rest if you have other arrangements!" Hearing Zuo Qian's assurance, Mu Rong Xiu's confidence increased a lot as he said this in a loud voice.

"Yes, this lowly official will take his leave first." Zuo Qian and Murong Bo Wen also said their goodbyes. This time, there were a lot of things that needed to be discussed and carried out.

"Mm, go ahead." Mu Rong Xiu waved his hands as well and sat down on his seat. He looked ahead coldly, but his voice was cold as he spoke.

"Helian, Zi Yuan, Lan Cang, the three of you, just you wait. One day, I'll have you all return!" After Murong Xiu finished speaking, he slammed his palm on the Dragon Throne, causing a hole to appear ….

When Mu Rong Boven and Zuo Qian came out, they started to talk. The two of them could be considered to have truly worked together, so they had no choice but to work together before facing this tribulation together.

"Brother Bowen, I'm afraid we'll be busy from now on." Zuo Qian sighed and said.

"That's right, but we have to rely on Brother Zuo in the future. As the Prime Minister of a country, Brother Zuo is truly wise." At this moment, Murong Bo Wen also spoke sincerely.

"Hehe, don't say that. I was just thinking a little too much." Zuo Qian also said with a wry smile before continuing.

"Brother Bowen, tell me honestly. I don't need to know whether Lord Murong still has any trump cards or not. I just want to know if he does." Zuo Qian suddenly asked as he looked at Murong Bo Wen with a burning gaze.

"I … I truly don't know about that. However, according to my understanding of Lord Murong, there should be a trump card that hasn't been sent out yet!" After all, there were some things that Murong Xiu hadn't asked him to take over completely, and this was also where Murong Xiu had to be careful with his cultivation level. He had to control the overall situation, but he also had to separate the things that his subordinates did, otherwise, even Murong Xiu didn't know where he would be able to find the name list after Mo Feng's death.

"In that case, I have confidence in myself." When Zuo Wuji heard this, his heart relaxed a little, and Murong Bo Wen couldn't help but ask.

"Brother Zuo, what do you think? Just say it, it's better if we discuss it together."

"Right now, the only way to deal with this situation is to cultivate internally first, then control externally. We have to first clean up the interior first before we can fight off the suppression from the outside." "Right now, the inner court is naturally our people, and you and I are truly cooperating together. We don't need to care about matters within the court, but we need to immediately recruit soldiers." After Zuo Qian said this, Murong Bowen also nodded his head and the two of them walked side by side outside the palace.

At this moment, the setting sun was slowly setting. At the foot of the sword peak, it was also the end of the setting sun, and at this moment, Helian and the Violet Garden were enjoying the evening sun's lunch together. There was an indescribable fear in their hearts, the outcome of the battle had been decided, and it was time to enjoy themselves.

"If I can stand by your side like this all my life and watch the sunset, how wonderful it would be when the sun rises tomorrow." Helian Yi took a sip of his wine and said as he held onto Zi Yuan. When the Zi Yuan heard this, his heart trembled and he subconsciously leaned his head against Helian Lie's shoulder.

"Are you tired?" Helian gently caressed Zi Yuan's face, but he said with a pained heart.

"You've already taken so much."

"When war comes, how can there not be some truth. However, now that the battle has stabilized, we can rest in our hearts." Compared to the cold killer on the battlefield, Helian Lie felt as if he was in a world of ice and fire.

"If you can talk to me like this in the future, I'm willing to die." Helian Lie suddenly pulled Zi Yuan towards him with a single hand as he stared at her and spoke directly. Zi Yuan was also somewhat unable to resist Helian's gentle gaze. Afterwards, the two of them simultaneously closed their eyes.
