Chapter 2009: No Soldier Expended
Qinggong is an old lady who is almost 200 years old and the former national teacher of Beiga. No one can guess what she is thinking.
"You can't contact her?"
Qing Wei shook his head: "The palace master said that her trip is important and the secrets must not be leaked. But if it succeeds, it will relieve Lord Bai and Beijia's worries once and for all."
What he said sounded so mysterious that Bai Tan frowned, snorted, turned around and left.
There was no point in making things difficult for this little soldier, Qingyang had already left.
He came here today and wanted to question Qingyang about a rumor.
Qingyang had invited the powerful people of Shanjin to join the camp against the Dragon God, and sent more than a dozen bodies of gods. But he heard that those bodies of gods failed to ask the gods to come down in times of danger, and the local forces were defeated.
Bai Tan was half worried and half suspicious. Because these rumors broke out in a short period of time and spread everywhere, it is hard to say that there was no push behind them. This time someone failed to pray to the gods, and not long after someone else failed to pray to the gods again. There was only a gap of five or six days between them, and the failed Shanjin tycoons were often killed. Who would know that they failed to pray to the gods?
It is obviously the Dragon God Army.
Bai Tan was well aware of how powerful the Nine Nether Emperor's propaganda offensive was. Long before the Nine Nether Emperor had clearly annexed Shanjin, his deeds with the Black Armor Army had already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Wasn't it the publicity that was used to build momentum?
This shows that he must be an expert at fabricating news.
So now, isn't it easy to release false news one after another to shake the morale of the army and scare the opponent?
But even though he knew it, Bai Tan was still worried.
The Dragon God and the Black Armor Army were becoming more and more powerful. Even if Bai Tan wanted to cover up his mistake, he could feel the gap in strength between the two sides. This gap could only be narrowed with the help of the power of the gods.
Qingyang had promised him that he could give him eight divine bodies.
If these divine bodies cannot bring down the gods from heaven, then his hope of defeating the Nine Nether Emperor will be very slim.
Thinking of this, he became extremely upset and decided to rush back to Tianshui City and go to the temple to ask to see the gods.
Under the insistence of the Holy Lord Lingxu, the main god of Yao Kingdom has now been replaced by Duowentian. Now Bai Tan wants to ask Duowentian for a definite answer, whether the eight bodies of the gods can ask the gods to help in the battle!
The word of the gods is worth a thousand gold. With this reassurance, he can train his troops with peace of mind.
But then again, where did Qingyang go?
After he left Youhu Cottage, he asked someone.
Bai Tan was not so confident about Qingyang, and always sent people to keep an eye on Youhu Cottage.
As a result, the spy replied that Qingyang's carriage had indeed left Youhu Cottage and disappeared after entering Liaocheng.
Liaocheng? That's in the southern part of Yao State.
What's the point of just knowing the name of this place? Liaocheng is well connected. You can go to the south, cross the river, or go abroad through Liaocheng.
Bai Tan was worried that if the Dragon God’s army marched to Yao Kingdom and Qingyang had not appeared yet, what should he do?
Without Qingyang, he can do nothing alone.
Although he didn't like this old woman very much, he had to admit that in terms of cunning, scheming, and strategy, only Qingyang could compete with Emperor Jiuyou.
Why did she leave a message, saying that if this departure went smoothly, perhaps it would solve the worries of him and Bega?
Is it...

The territory of the Nanrong family.
Nan Ronghe sat in his study, looking at the jacaranda trees in full bloom on the roof opposite.
He has been in a daze like this often in the past two days.
This tree was planted by his father himself. Over the years, it has grown luxuriantly. Every time it blooms, it is like a gorgeous dream, just like the prosperity of Nanrong's family.
The Nanrong family's territory was also passed down to him by his father, but now it seems that it can no longer be kept.
In the past two days, he had discussed this with his relatives and staff. Unexpectedly, not many people suggested that he resist to the end, but many people agreed to merge into the Dragon God's territory, including his sons.
The Nanrong family was not isolated, and they were more afraid of the Dragon God than they were respectful of him. After all, the Dragon God had defeated Miao Zhantian single-handedly, and in just half a year, he had swept through Shanjin, annexing Luodian, the Allied Forces, and Pixia.
No matter how powerful the Nanrong family is, is it as powerful as the above three? The Jiuyou Emperor is trying to persuade him to submit in a gentle manner. What if he uses courtesy first and then force, and then gets impatient and turns hostile? Will the Nanrong family really be able to resist?
The rule of Shanjin has always been that whoever has the bigger fist is right. How dare he think that the Nine Nether Emperor can't do anything to him?
The reason for sending troops, isn't that easy to find? The Nanrong family has been in the world of Shanjin for decades, how could they not understand such a simple truth?
Besides, Nan Ronghe always ignored the collusion of the Heavenly Demon and the requests of other forces to form an alliance. On the one hand, he was unwilling to go along with them, and on the other hand, he did not want to be listed as an enemy by the Dragon God.
He really couldn't afford to offend such an opponent.
So, if you can’t beat them, just join them?
The treatment for voluntarily surrendering and joining and passively surrendering will definitely be completely different.
Besides, when he met Emperor Jiuyou, he was indeed impressed by the other party's foresight and determination.
The Golden Plains needs a hero who can end the war and division, and a leader who can lead everyone forward.
He took a deep breath, picked up the pen and was about to write a letter, but after thinking for a while, he put the pen down again.
Better go there in person.
In the evening of that day, Nan Ronghe led his people and took the initiative to surrender to Emperor Jiuyou.
The Dragon God's territory expanded again, and it was peaceful, without bloodshed or tears.
Jiuyou was very happy and hosted a banquet to entertain the Nanrong family.
Following the custom, the Nanrong army was disbanded and incorporated into the Dragon God Army. Because they surrendered voluntarily and had excellent combat power, the Dragon God designated the area around Xiancheng as the new residence of the Nanrong family. The land there was fertile and the mountains and rivers were beautiful, making it more livable than the old territory of the Nanrong family.

He Lingchuan got up before dawn.
This was the first time he had slept in seven or eight days. He was usually too busy at work, so he would regulate his breathing instead of sleeping. Also, because his physique was different from that of an ordinary person, otherwise such a work and rest schedule would tire him to death.
However, the pleasure of deep sleep cannot be replaced by regulating breathing and entering a state of meditation.
Last night he dreamed of entering the Panlong world, and he had a rare moment of leisure, so he accompanied Master Sun to stroll around the city and eat for most of the day, and then went to the library to borrow books.
After several years of external exchanges, Panlong City's library has become more abundant. A special printed edition of the booklet "Wenzhi Lukao" has appeared in the city. It is published every 20 days and contains the dynamics of Panlong Desert and the outside world. From trivial matters, such as the series of strange things that the Xu family in Xiangwan has encountered recently, to the changes in Baling, Beijia and the sea route, rain disasters, and price fluctuations of various commodities, all are recorded in it.
This book is for information exchange within the Chamber of Commerce. After all, those who do long-distance business need to know astronomy and geography and have ears to all directions. He Lingchuan found it useful after listening to it in the Chamber of Commerce, so he found someone to record it and publish it every month.
