Chapter 1251, Winter Song (forty)(1/2)
In the past, Li Yufeng and Zhao Guangfu had huge power, and there was also a natural barrier in the Yangtze River, so they could only think about it in their hearts.
Now it's different.
The Northern Expedition Alliance, a powerful force that was a huge monster to them, was already in twilight, and Little Li Tang and Zhao Song were even beaten by the Eagle Empire and were about to destroy the country.
In the area south of the Yangtze River, it is the territory of their five forces, and even the Northern Expedition Alliance now has to look at their expressions.
Because if they are unhappy, no matter who they are, they can’t live a peaceful life in this place south of the Yangtze River.
In the past, people talked about the loss of lips and teeth, because Henan and Hubei had not been lost at that time, and everyone's strength was similar.
Now the entire area north of the Yangtze River will be occupied by the Condor Empire.
It would be a bit nonsense to talk about the coldness of lips and teeth at this time, because everyone's strength is no longer above the same level.
In the past, you had the strength and could protect the secrets in your hands.
Now that you have no strength, and you still want to monopolize the secret to coerce others to serve you, it is a bit too ignorant of the sky and the earth.
So when Li Tiancheng and the others learned the purpose of the other party asking them for them, they were sure to win the Mingguang Armor, Mo Dao and Divine Arm Bow that Li and Zhao were unique to each other.
They not only need to obtain finished weapons and equipment, but also obtain exclusive production craftsmanship, otherwise they would never nod and agree.
Li Tiancheng's excessive intuition caught the other people in the conference room off guard.
They never expected that Li Tiancheng would put forward the conditions so unceremoniously without any tactfulness.
After hearing that Li Tiancheng wanted to take out enough chips himself, Li Yufeng pondered for a moment and said:
"President Li Tiancheng, President Ye Ziqing, if you treat me and Zhao Guangfu as a loser and want to ask for us, you may be disappointed.
Since President Li Tiancheng chose to say whatever he wanted, I won’t go around in circles with everyone.
This time, Lao Zhao and I wanted to retreat to Hunan, but we didn’t want to come and live under someone else’s roof and look at others’ eyes.
The reason we want to come here is because we still want to keep ourselves a glimmer of hope of making a comeback.
If we come here and if you treat it as a chicken that can lay golden eggs, we would rather die in Hubei.
To tell you the truth, not only are you jealous of the exclusive craftsmanship in our hands, but Ning Yuan is also jealous of them.
Just after the game ended today, Ning Yuan had asked someone to hand me over. He wanted me to surrender to him, and I could do whatever conditions were available, as long as I was willing to hand over the exclusive crafts to him in full.
After listening, I directly replied to the other party and asked him to tell Ning Yuan for help.
I said: It is impossible to surrender. Even if I fight to the last person, I will not surrender to anyone.
But, I am not a selfish person, and I will not bring these exclusive crafts into the coffin.
If Ning Yuan wants to get these exclusive crafts, then I can hand it over to him for free, with the condition that when he truly unifies China.
So, if you don’t leave any hope for me and Zhao Guangfu now, then Lao Zhao and I will rather be the Yangtze River.
Of course, we will not surrender to Ningyuan. We will fight to the last person and then die tragically for the country.
When we perish, Lao Zhao and I will quietly watch you and Ning Yuan fight together.
Whichever party wins the final victory, we will give the exclusive craftsmanship to which party for free.
Well, that's how we both were.
It’s not impossible for you to get the craftsmanship, but you have to give us hope, otherwise we will never be able to do anything.”
Knowing that the other party must not be led by the nose at this moment, otherwise he might really become a chicken that lays golden eggs, so Li Yufeng took the most fierce approach, rather than breaking the jade than making the whole thing.
Seeing that Li Yufeng's attitude suddenly became so strong, the others in the conference room were speechless, especially Li Tiancheng and the other two.
They thought this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them, and it was also likely that they would get the exclusive craftsmanship in Li Yufeng's hands, but they never expected that Li Yufeng would say such decisive words.
If you think about it carefully, what Li Yufeng said is not without reason.
As a generation of heroes, if you have to live a life of being rescued and being kept in captivity, you might as well die in a battle. Anyway, as a player, you won’t really die.
Fortunately, Li Yufeng did not say anything. As long as they could give them hope, they were still willing to take out the exclusive craftsmanship to share with everyone here, but what exactly was the hope they wanted?
After looking at the other people, Li Tiancheng asked, "President Li, I wonder what you want? Can you make it clear?"
After looking at the five families in Jiangnan, then at Ye Ziqing and Dongfang Ming, Li Yufeng said slowly: "It's very simple. I need an independent territory to accommodate the soldiers who follow me and Lao Zhao.
In addition, I also need food, supplies that can support the army for three years and the qualifications to absorb refugees.
If you want us to produce finished equipment for you, you must provide us with enough mineral resources.”
When he heard Li Yufeng's mouth open, he asked for an independent territory. The other seven people present were immediately shocked by Li Yufeng's lion's mouth.
In this chaotic year, for a force, the army and land are the most important. Who would be willing to transfer the land that they had finally occupied to others?
No wonder Li Yufeng said he wanted hope. It turns out that this is what he understood!
After discussing with the other four people, Li Tiancheng said: "I'm sorry, everyone, it's impossible for our five families to send troops and unearth the land, so we cannot meet the requirements put forward by President Li Yufeng.
In principle, it is impossible for us to sell any piece of land we have in hand. We will only decide how many elite troops we have dispatched based on the reward we receive.
So President Ye, President Dongfang, if you can't reach a unification, then this time, we can only say sorry."
After saying that, although Li Tiancheng and the other two did not choose to leave directly, their attitude was basically no different from turning around and leaving directly.
The five Jiangnan families represented by Li Tian are very clear, that is, they will only send troops based on the rewards they receive. As for land, materials, etc., it is up to you to solve the problem within the Northern Expedition Alliance!
Seeing that Li Yufeng and the five Jiangnan families had started to be generals one after another, Ye Ziqing and Dongfang Ming suddenly looked helpless. This was really a tiger falling into Pingyang and being bullied by a dog!
People have to bow their heads under the eaves.
After communicating with each other for a while in private, Ye Ziqing smiled and said, "We can meet the requirements of the two Presidents Li, but we also have a condition.
If the two Presidents Li are willing to meet our conditions, then we can first meet President Li Yufeng's conditions and let the negotiations continue.
Our condition is the Trinity.
Our Northern Expedition Alliance is counted as one, the two presidents Li and Zhao are counted as one, and the five families in Jiangnan are counted as one.
I want these three of us to form an integrated defense system.
After regaining the Colorful Bridge, Chairman Li and Zhao, crossing the river, we did not want to destroy the bridge immediately, but wanted to save it.
We do not actively destroy the Colorful Bridge, and I believe that the Condor Heroes, who are eager to cross the river, will not be able to actively destroy the Colorful Bridge.
In this way, we will have a long-term bridge battle with the Condor Armour at the Colorful Bridge.
After our Northern Expedition Alliance has lost its strength, it will definitely not be able to defend the Colorful Bridge alone, so I hope that you two can also send troops to help us defend the Colorful Bridge.
If you can agree to this condition, then we are willing to give up Songzi County to Presidents Li and Zhao, so that they can have an independent exclusive territory in Hunan."
After listening to Ye Ziqing's speech, Li Tiancheng frowned and asked, "President Ye, why are you so persistent in the Colorful Bridge?
Since we will be in a defensive posture for a short period of time, why can't we destroy the Colorful Bridge?
No matter how precious the Colorful Bridge is, as long as we are willing, we will still be able to do it in the future.
But if we choose to keep the Colorful Bridge, do you know how many troops we have to fill in for this and how many resources?
I think after receiving the two presidents Li and Zhao, we should immediately destroy all the colorful bridges on the Yangtze River and not give the army of the Condor Empire the chance to cross the river easily."
After looking at Li Tiancheng with frowning, Ye Ziqing said, "President Li Tiancheng, I know that after retaining the Colorful Bridge, we will invest a lot of manpower and material resources in this regard and lose a lot of army.
But the reason why I chose this is also considered in the long run.
If we choose to destroy all the colorful rainbow bridges on the Yangtze River, then facing the sea blockade of the Condor Empire, we will be trapped on an isolated island first.
At that time, the Condor Empire will have plenty of time to choose any login location to launch an attack on us.
The Yangtze River waterway is so long, and there is a long coastline to the south of our south. Let me ask, can we defend such a long border line if we cannot get into the water?
And if we choose to keep the Colorful Bridge, then we can use the Colorful Bridge to attract most of the attention of the Condor Empire.
At that time, we will send a player legion to fight with the Condor Heroes Empire at the Colorful Bridge. Do you think Ningyuan will choose to dispatch the Aboriginal Legion or the Tenglong Legion?
Elite soldiers are trained from iron and blood through constant battles, rather than relying solely on some weapons and equipment.
Most of the areas south of the Yangtze River are mountainous, and there are very few plains suitable for cultivation, making it even less suitable for raising war horses.
If we were trapped here by Ningyuan for a long time, our strength would only continue to weaken, because it would be difficult for us to feed too much of the population with the few arable land here alone.
Without enough population, we cannot obtain enough army.
Without enough troops, what can we use to stop the increasingly powerful Condor Empire?
After obtaining the entire area north of the Yangtze River, you only need to rest for three to five years, and the national strength of the Condor Empire will increase by a leap.
With enough food and supplies, the Condor Empire can mobilize more troops to participate in the war.
As one goes up and down, we have no chance of winning at all, and can only survive by relying on continuous defense.
In addition, only by retaining the Colorful Bridge can we retain the hope of returning to the north of the Yangtze River.
Because facing the huge naval fleet of the Condor Empire, the Yangtze River waterway will naturally become a natural barrier that hinders us from crossing the river.
If we want to return to Hubei in the future, we must pass through the Colorful Bridge, otherwise our army will likely be directly destroyed by the navy of the Condor Empire in the Yangtze River.
As President Li Yufeng said just now, all of us here need a hope.
If you can’t even see any hope, what is the meaning of our efforts to persevere?
If you don’t see a glimmer of hope, what is the meaning of the players under our command following us?
To be continued...
