Chapter 143 Prelude to the War
The media has been hyping about population growth and land shortage for two or three months.
However, by late October, the media trend changed.
The collective turned to the news about the evil cultivators in Nanyuanzhou and doing evil in Zhongyuanzhou.
For example, an evil cultivator kidnapped and killed the rich people from Wancheng Kingdom and plundered the people's property.
For example, an evil cultivator sneaked into the factory of Wancheng Kingdom and stole advanced technical information.
For example, an evil cultivator plunders the men and women of Wancheng Kingdom and used them to refine them as a furnace and cauldron and then kill them.
Many criminal incidents in Wancheng were caused by evil practitioners in Nanyuanzhou who fled into Wancheng's country.
What attracted the most attention and anger among the whole country was that at the marriage competition held by the Mu family in Xingtang City, Fairy Mu, the youngest immortal in Wancheng Kingdom, was abducted by evil cultivators in public. After investigation by the State Special Operations Bureau, it was confirmed that it was also the cause of a group of evil cultivators from Nanyuanzhou.
Even for the extremely concerned "The Captivity Incident of Fairy Mu", the National Special Operations Administration specially held a press conference to announce the details, display the tools for the crime, demonstrate his methods of committing the crime, and combined with previous investigations, it concluded that if Fairy Mu was excluded, the criminal gang formed by the ancestor of Snake Kui and his disciples took at least seven women and three men, a total of ten thousand geniuses in the country.
His crimes were cruel and injustice and crazy!
Not only that, at this press conference, Fairy Mu, Mu Feiyan, was also invited by officials from the National Special Operations Administration to the scene, faced hundreds of reporters, answered several questions, and talked about their views on the matter.
Mu Feiyan cleared her throat and said a few words based on the manuscript prepared for her in advance:
"The evil cultivators in Nanyuanzhou do evil and plunder in our homeland. We should face up to their dangers and protect our safety."
"But the evil cultivators are cunning and insidious, always hiding in the dark and shooting cold arrows at the kind people of our country. No matter how strong the country is, it is always difficult to guard against. They can only rely on themselves to strengthen their vigilance and provide more clues to the Special Operations Bureau."
"These measures are ultimately helpless and passive choices. If you want to completely stop those evil cultivators, you need a smarter way."
"I believe that with the prosperity and strength of the country and the wisdom of the leaders, those evil practitioners who are unjust will eventually receive the punishment they deserve."
After being reported by hundreds of media, Mu Feiyan's speech caused heated discussions across the country.
The focus of people's hot discussion is one of the beautiful appearance of Fairy Mu in the newspaper; the other is how to completely get rid of the crazy and cruel evil cultivators in Nanyuanzhou?
How can we completely stop these evil cultivators from being peaceful and prosperous, well-developed, and genius from Wancheng, who are in peace and wealthy, have developed science and technology, and have many geniuses, and are rushing around freely?
In other words, how can we get rid of all these evil cultivators more thoroughly?
It is impossible to set up defenses on the border. How much manpower is needed to block the evil cultivators from Nanyuanzhou for a tens of thousands of miles long?
What if we change our thinking and directly send military forces to Nanyuanzhou to eliminate all the evil cultivators from the source?
This is the best way to solve the problem once and for all.
So words such as "going to the Nanyuanzhou, breaking into the old nest of evil cultivators" and "capturing Nanyuanzhou, pulling out the cancer, and destroying the evil cultivators" began to appear in newspapers of some small and medium-sized media. Readers thought it made sense and said, "Good solution, good solution!"
Zhou Ming from Daxian Academy immediately smelled the scent of the coming storm.
He quickly wrote a letter to Mu Feiyan and asked her why she attended the press conference and acted as a key piece?
Mu Feiyan replied, "I didn't want to go either, but an official gave me five million spirit coins. I thought about it and went there. It should be nothing, right?"
"Puff~"
Seeing this reply, Zhou Ming squirted out.
"You are willing to act as a pawn for some big shots just for just five million? Do you know how many people will die because of these words after you say them?"
It may be millions!
Zhou Ming said loudly in his heart, thinking that Mu Feiyan was simply a silly and sweet person, and he dared to do anything to order spiritual coins.
but……
He also realized that even though Mu Feiyan did not make that statement, the top leaders of Wan Chengguo would still have to do something.
A big deal!
...
Wancheng Kingdom.
Capitol.
In a closed-door conference hall.
On a huge circular conference table.
Wancheng important senior executives in China gathered together to discuss major events.
If Zhou Ming was also present at this time, he would have recognized many old faces.
For example, the ancestor of Hongping Daozu of Qingyun Mountain, the ancestor of Shengkong Daozu of Guanglei Mountain (Ye Kong), and the parents of Feiyun Mountain, the thorn stone jade of Feiyun Mountain, and the couple of charming Qianhong.
There are many new faces.
For example, the current head of Wan Chengguo, the deputy head of the country, the Minister of Defense, the Minister of Economy, the Director of Intelligence, the Director of the Special Operations Bureau, etc. are all unfamiliar faces.
They are discussing something.
After taking over Nanyuanzhou, the issue of how to distribute interests.
good!
Although the people are still discussing how to deal with the evil cultivators in Nanyuanzhou, the top leaders of Wancheng Kingdom have long reached a high degree of agreement: to dispatch legions to swallow Nanyuanzhou!
The topic they have been arguing about these days is mainly the issue of interest distribution.
Because Nanyuanzhou is 200,000 miles in a radius, there are one large spiritual vein, three small spiritual veins, and thousands of cities in the mortal world.
There is no doubt that all the thousands of cities in the mortal world belong to the Wancheng Kingdom.
But how to distribute those four spiritual veins, Qingyun, Guanglei, Chixing, and Feiyun, can be said to be quarrelsome, and it will be quickly broken.
The first person to propose the war proposal was the tassel stone jade of Feiyun Mountain, the beautiful Qianhong couple, because with the increase in the number of immortals in each mountain in recent years, the spiritual veins of Zhongyuanzhou can be said to be overwhelmed.
During the low tide of the spiritual energy flow, not to mention that Feiyun Mountain encountered a cut-off, even Chixing Mountain in the middle also had insufficient spiritual energy supply.
As a result, the supply of spiritual energy in the spiritual vein was insufficient, and the four major sects were constantly in conflict, conflicts and frictions arose again, and the relationship became more and more tense.
Or Ying Shiyu realized that even if he found trouble with the three upstream sects, it would be impossible to solve the problem, because there are 167 immortals in Feiyun Mountain. Even if the spiritual veins are abundant, there is insufficient supply of spiritual energy. He can only rely on the spirit gathering tower to supplement it. Will there be more immortals in the future?
Even if Feiyun Mountain occupies the entire spiritual vein, I am afraid that the spiritual energy will not be enough.
Only external expansion can be carried out.
So Ying Shiyu made a special trip to visit Wu Xinyu, the leader of Wancheng Kingdom, and asked to jointly send troops with Wancheng Kingdom to conquer and destroy Nanyuanzhou. Then Wancheng Kingdom obtained the land and cities of the mortal world, and Feiyun Mountain obtained all spiritual veins, which were mutually beneficial and win-win, and sincerely cooperated.
Wu Xinyu and other senior executives of Wan Chengguo remained unchanged, but their hearts moved.
He moved the same idea of sending troops to Nanyuanzhou and swallowing up the new territory.
Why?
Interests are also interests.
Business interests.
In recent years, with the strong commodities of Wancheng Country, exporting them to the outside world like a tide, earning a huge amount of spiritual coins, and forming huge amounts of spiritual coins to the surrounding continents, sucking tens of billions of spiritual coins every year.
The extreme imbalance in trade has made Wan Chengguo's export business more and more difficult to do from the initial welcome to the subsequent restrictions to the final boycott and hatred.
Especially in Nanyuanzhou, many good and evil sects even united to organize professional plundering teams, attacked Wancheng's caravans, and killed Wancheng's merchants. Wancheng's economic interests suffered heavy losses in Nanyuanzhou.
The shrinking of foreign exports year by year, the rapid growth of the country's population, and the reduction of resource inflows have caused the economic growth of Wancheng Country to slow down significantly in recent years and the national living standards have declined significantly.
Internal conflicts caused by the unemployment rate continue to emerge.
And this situation must be improved and a solution must be found!
After thinking about it, it seems that only external expansion can solve the core contradictions.
The excessive population and the crime of entering the country by evil practitioners from other countries are just an excuse. Although it exists, it is far less serious than what is advertised in newspapers.
In addition, Feiyunshan took the initiative to find him and expressed his willingness to mobilize all his combat power to help devour Nanyuanzhou, which was completely consistent with the ideas of the top leaders such as Wu Xinyu, the leader of the country.
However, for the sake of balancing the four major sects, Wu Xinyu also sent people to call the Taoist ancestors of Qingyun, Guanglei and Chixing Mountain to the capital city to discuss major events.
So there was a scene where Wu Xinyu and others were drinking tea while the heads of the four major sects were spitting everywhere and quarreling fiercely.
The argument lasted for four or five days, and finally it was successfully negotiated.
The agreement is reached as follows:
Wancheng Kingdom sent 50% of the troops, occupying all the mortal cities and minerals.
Feiyun Mountain sent 18% of its troops, accounting for 40% of the upper reaches of the large spiritual veins in Nanyuanzhou.
Guanglei Mountain sent 16% of troops, accounting for 40% of the middle reaches of the large spiritual veins in Nanyuanzhou.
Chixing Mountain sent 10% of its troops, accounting for 30% of the downstream of the large spiritual veins in Nanyuanzhou.
Qingyun Mountain sent 6% of its troops, and obtained two larger small spiritual veins in Nanyuanzhou.
The remaining small spiritual vein depends on the losses of each sect during the war of conquest. If a sect suffers a lot of casualties, the small spiritual vein will be compensated for the sect.
In this way, several domestic giants of Wancheng basically reached an agreement.
And after hype and preheating from the national media, the public support rate of support for the destruction of Nanyuanzhou by force exceeded 90%.
Therefore, Wan Chengguo, who quickly entered the state of war preparation and mobilization, was about to reveal his sharp fangs and turned into a fierce giant beast.
Chapter completed!
