The Nine Heavens
Chapter 76

The young girl suddenly turned her head and looked at Tie Long Cheng. His eyes were as sharp as swords and ice-cold. However, as he pondered, the sharpness of his eyes gradually disappeared.

"Eight years ago, His Majesty was hit by a poisoned arrow and his life was at stake. He was too young; he was only ten years old back then. Although he was intelligent, he could not convince the public. The entire Iron Cloud Nation was on the verge of collapse. All the ministers have their own thoughts. The situation is very dangerous. "

Tie Long Cheng slowly said. Moreover, Chu Yang had a feeling that he seemed to be explaining.

Chu Yang thought that since the first time they met, he did not have the qualifications to explain. Even if he did, he didn't need to explain. He could not help but feel suspicious.

Tie Long Cheng continued, "Then, on the battlefield, Diwu Qing Rou suddenly made some unnecessary and incomprehensible mistakes. He buried some experienced generals from Great Zhao on the battlefield. Those few battles were unnecessary losses for the Great Zhao Empire, and it was also an impossible loss! "

"Because at that time, as long as they attacked with all their strength, the Iron Clouds would be destroyed within half a year! Iron Cloud would be powerless to turn things around! But at that critical moment, several generals suddenly entered into a death trap due to misinformation. Allows us to easily destroy them! Those three decisive battles gave Iron Cloud a chance to rest! "

"After that, as we gathered together and looked back at those three battles, we found that we did not make any effort to make them fall into a trap! In other words, they seek their own death. Such facts have astonished us. "

"After that, the Great Zhao reorganized their troops for a month. And during that one month, there is no need to rest and reset. It was as if they were intentionally giving us time to breathe and think ... "Tie Long Cheng took a deep breath and said," Until we analyzed Great Zhao's intelligence several times, we discovered that this was Diwu Qing Rou's plot! "

"But this scheme forces us to work together! We can't not be led by the nose. "

"Diwu Qing Rou needed a long and protracted war. He needs to continue gathering military exploits, eliminating dissidents, promoting his believers, and controlling the entire military and government in his own hands. Back then, our Iron Clouds required more time than Diwu Qing Rou. We need more time to consolidate our military and domestic government into a fist. Because by then it was already a crisis, and life and death were at stake! "

"If we don't cooperate, Iron Cloud Nation will be destroyed in a few months. But even if we don't cooperate, Diwu Qing Rou still has another chance. For example, a Nation Without Borders! Therefore, we have no choice. Even if this is embarrassing, I can only pinch my nose and swallow it! "

Tie Long Cheng let out a long sigh.

Although he did not continue speaking, Chu Yang and the others already understood.

At that moment, the commanders of the two countries, under this tacit understanding, jointly carried out their own methods to eliminate the dissidents and unite the country! You fight for your military exploitation, I fight for my territory, you obliterate your dissidents, I kill my enemies!

In short, the goal of the two was the same: to consolidate the power of the entire country into a fist so that they could use all their strength!

If Diwu Qing Rou did a decisive battle at that moment, she would naturally win. It's a matter of certainty. But after the victory, he had to face the fears of the emperor and the suspicions of the ministers. At that time, his foundation was unstable. The worst result would be to die without a burial place! Even if he could save his life and maintain a certain status, he would forever lose the chance to reach the pinnacle of power.

Therefore, he cannot.

Back then, the entire Iron Cloud Country was in Tie Long Cheng's hands. In a precarious situation, he did not even need an enemy to attack him to the point of collapsing! Tie Long Cheng naturally did not want to fight in a decisive battle.

The commanders of the two countries did not even meet each other. But from a distance of thousands of miles, they carried out cooperation that reached a terrifying level of tacit comprehension! The two limit each other and weigh each other. Today, you won one battle and killed my enemy; tomorrow, I won one battle and eliminated your obstacles …

During that time, the millions of soldiers fighting between the two countries became a game controlled by two people behind the scenes! On one hand, the millions of dead souls created Diwu Qing Rou's unrivalled reputation. On the other hand, millions of dead souls condensed into Iron Clouds!

But ... This game is to buy time and fight for qualification. But for both sides, the starting point was very different.

Diwu Qing Rou did this for Great Zhao and for himself. However, Tie Long Cheng had managed to destroy Iron Cloud in this humiliating and ongoing campaign. Then, he had reformed the Iron Clouds from the loose pile of sand. Now, he had become a mighty city that had the power to fight!

If not for the proper cooperation between Tie Long Cheng and Diwu Qing Rou, Iron Cloud Nation would not have survived until now. Not to mention waiting for Bu Tian Tai to regain power and compete with Diwu Qing Rou.

All these changes are unimaginable. Moreover, at every step, the commanders of both sides had to give each other a gesture that only the other party could understand. Then, each side can take what they want. But such a clue could not be seen by anyone else.

In this situation, the amount of brain power required was truly unimaginable! Chu Yang did not know how Tie Long Cheng could do this.

Under Diwu Qing Rou's leadership, he cooperated but did not let the other party achieve their goals. Moreover, under the other party's inescapable net, he gradually built up Iron Cloud's resistance. Up until now, the border had been an impenetrable wall!

This person's calculation ability, leadership ability, control ability, military ability, and even political ability were not as good as Diwu Qing Rou. But the difference is so small!

Both of them were mortal enemies, but in the midst of the battle with each other, each set their own back, and it was perfect. These two people are really scary!

However, there was one thing that made Chu Yang's heart turn cold. [Tie Long Cheng and Diwu Qing Rou military expedition was tantamount to throwing millions of soldiers on both sides as if they were lifeless chess pieces. But that is millions of lives!]

There had never been a moment like this where Chu Yang understood the meaning of the phrase "the success of a general built on ten thousand bones"!

"Do you regret it?" The one who said this was Gu Du Xing. His two cold eyes looked at Tie Long Cheng, "Millions of soldiers are buried on the battlefield under the cooperation of the two commanders. Not even their bones were left!"
