C522 Pull-In
Hearing Yin Jingduan's words, everyone came to a realization. If the argument from before was purely Yin Jingduan's personal analysis and speculation, then the reason thrown out now was the conclusive evidence.
This was also why when everyone present had their doubts, Yin Jingduan was still so sure of his conclusion. He still believed that this army was a private army sent by some powerful noble family, although such a large number of troops made people feel that it was a little suspicious, but the truth was still the truth.
After their foundation was thrown out, the two ancestors sighed secretly. The two of them had already become elites, how could they not know the nature of the private and regular armies? At most, they would only feel slightly sad right now. However, as long as they could grit their teeth and endure, not only would there be a chance for survival, there was also the possibility of showing goodwill to the Emperor.
"So you mean the reason he is here is for Lu Baihuan?" Yin Jingxiao interjected. His thoughts were relatively simple. He would give them whatever he wanted, and as long as he could resolve this matter to the maximum, what he needed the most right now.
During the torture, all the meridians in his body had already been destroyed, and even the tendons and bones of his four limbs had already been broken. Even if a person like this were to recover, he would probably not even be comparable to an ordinary person, let alone serve as the protector of the Blood Illusion Valley.
"No, I should say it's for the five hundred thousand silver taels!" Yin Jingduan shook his head and replied.
"Then why don't we give him five hundred thousand silver taels as compensation?" Yin Jingxiao even thought that he was smart enough to come up with his own opinion.
These words of Second Master Yin made Li Jialai snort in disdain. If it wasn't for the fact that they were in an alliance, Li Jialai would probably call him childish.
"It seems like the rumors are true. He knows nothing about anything except martial arts." Li Jialai secretly laughed in his heart.
"It's not that simple!" Yin Jingduan really wanted to raise his hand up on the spot. His little brother was simply an idiot to a certain extent, did he really think that everything would be fine if he just handed Lu Baihuan and the five hundred thousand silver taels? Was there such a good thing in the world?
"What do you mean?" Yin Jingxiao hadn't realized his problem yet, so he decided to cooperate and continue questioning his big brother.
Yin Jingduan secretly sighed. Although he really didn't want to admit it, but it had to be said that the heavens had given him a little brother that had no power or power, but at the same time, gave him the brain of an idiot.
Yin Jingduan explained clearly one by one: "Firstly, our Blood Illusion Valley's total savings is only a little more than a hundred thousand silvers. It is impossible to gather all of them in a short amount of time! Secondly, the other party knows that this matter is not only about money, but also about venting their anger! "
"Oh? "How do you know?" Yin Jingxiao asked subconsciously.
"Even if these people completely destroyed the Blood Illusion Valley's base, with the ability of the imperial government, as long as they are still in the empire, they would be annihilated quickly. The price is already far more than the five hundred thousand! Since the Ninth Prince dares to abandon this troop, it means that he has the intention to vent his anger and not take back his five hundred thousand silver taels! " Yin Jingduan continued to explain.
Although he did not understand why the Ninth Prince would abandon his elite troops to vent his anger, this was against common sense. Presumably, the Prince knew that it was an immeasurable loss to him.
However, this prince had still chosen to be so stubborn. What was it that made him so determined to give up such an elite army?
"Could it be that he wants to use this force to divert the attention of the imperial city's people?" Did he have other plans? Or was he doing it for a greater purpose? If that isn't the case, it would be hard to explain his actions! " Yin Jingduan thought about it silently. He also had all these suspicions, but they had nothing to do with the military situation with the Blood Illusion Valley, so he did not bring them up.
The reason why Yin Jingduan had such thoughts was because he knew a little about the situation in the Ninth Prince. This prince was not someone who lived like a prince, he had crawled and fought on the battlefield since young, and when he was just a little over thirty years old, he had already started leading his troops. Although his results were not very outstanding, he still lost by a lot.
That was why Yin Jingduan guessed that this Ninth Prince had another scheme. As for this place, although it was the center of attention for everyone on the continent, it was not the place where they could truly compete!
"Big brother, the problem is that we didn't snatch his 500,000 silver taels, right?" Yin Jingxiao still didn't understand what exactly a scheme was. He foolishly shouted out loud. If it really was something that could be solved with five hundred thousand taels of silver, wouldn't he be able to make a room full of worries?
Someone once said, 'If money can solve a problem, then it's not a problem'! Although this sentence was somewhat biased, it was not without reason when it came to a specific person, matter, or object.
The reason why many officials and dignitaries did not put the commoners in their hearts, and even more so the extreme ones did not take human lives seriously, was because these things could be settled with money. Since the poor citizens did not have money, all that awaited them was an appointment.
This was a form of society. It could be said that in the long river of history, this kind of example was very common, it was not even recorded in history.
However, to the Blood Illusion Valley, they were just helpless and poor citizens, and what they were facing right now was the highest authority in the dynasty, a person that could not be reasoned with.
Furthermore, this also involved some unknown secrets. Even if Blood Illusion Valley s managed to raise five hundred thousand gold with the help of Sword League or some other force, it probably wasn't enough to compensate Ninth Prince, this one hundred and twenty thousand elite soldiers, for their losses.
"Sigh, since Lu Baihuan's idiot has really tried to snatch it away, regardless of whether he succeeds or not, we have already been convicted! And seeing how determined Ninth Prince is, although we did not steal back the five hundred thousand silver, we are sure that we lost it. Yin Jingduan shook his head and sighed.
"Does that mean we're a hundred times harder to tell?" Only now did Yin Jingxiao faintly realize that, to this matter, their Blood Illusion Valley was like 'a mute eating meat, unable to say anything even if it was painful'!
Yin Jingduan stood up, and looked around at the few higher ups of Blood Illusion Valley, and said with a serious face: "Not only that, but this is also related to the face of our Blood Illusion Valley, if we compromise, our position in the martial arts world will be severely damaged! It's very likely that we will lose our current leadership position! "
Whether it was losing money or handing over the money, these were not the key to solving the problem. Furthermore, as long as the Blood Illusion Valley did one of these things, it would mean that their faces would be swept across the floor.
This was the same principle as merchants doing business. Merchants could use any means they wanted to annex other merchants, but they could not leave a bad impression on their customers. If the reputation was gone, then the business would stop and the consequences would be quite serious.
Although the Blood Illusion Valley seemed to have a prominent position in the martial arts world, if their reputation was ruined, then what awaited them would be rejection and encouragement, and they might not even take it seriously. Over time, it would be difficult for the Blood Illusion Valley to even take a single step in the martial arts world.
This was the same logic as' water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn a boat '.
"Then how should we deal with it?" Yin Busan secretly nodded, he was glad that the Blood Illusion Valley had a Yin Jingduan who could take charge of himself.
"Actually, you don't have to worry. Things haven't reached a particularly bad stage yet. As long as we can endure for a few days, the imperial government will surely take another step forward. It is even possible that the imperial government will send an army to annihilate this army! At that time, we can even assist the imperial army in encircling and killing this army! For this battle, who knows who will be the one laughing in the end! " Yin Jingduan bowed towards Yin Busan who was sitting in the first position, then smiled as he tried to come up with a plan.
Hearing Yin Jingduan's analysis, everyone could not help but nod their heads, as though they had seen the light ahead of them. If everything went on smoothly, even if he had to choose to stay in the Blood Illusion Valley to defend, they would not be afraid.
"Then what do we do now?" Yin Jingxiao asked.
Yin Jingduan pondered for a moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up, and said: "Since they are attacking our Blood Illusion Valley, then we cannot let them relax, quickly send people to investigate the properties and hidden powers under our Ninth Prince! And then we will attack his estate and his hidden power endlessly! This is the method that we're most adept at! "
"Valley Master Yin is truly talented!" Li Jialai flattered.
First, he avoided direct confrontation, which he was not good at, and switched to sneak attacks and sneak attacks, which he was extremely good at. Furthermore, they were all aimed at the vital points of the Ninth Prince, aiming to get the nine kings to not only lose the one hundred and twenty thousand soldiers, but also make him blind and deaf.
"Good!" Just do it! " Yin Busan repeatedly nodded and clapped his hands as he praised.
"Since it's already so lively, shouldn't we add more fuel to the fire?" Li Jialai suddenly laughed and interrupted.
"What do you think of the Chief Li?" Yin Jingduan asked in confusion.
"We misunderstood the Nightmare Villa earlier. Since this has nothing to do with them, why didn't we drag them into the water?" Li Jialai said calmly, but his cunning eyes betrayed his' good intentions'.
"Would they be willing to wade in?" Yin Jingduan creased his eyebrows in surprise and asked back.
"What if we are in the name of the court? After all, this is a good opportunity to get closer to the imperial government. I believe that Nightmare Villa is aware of the pros and cons of this matter! " Li Jialai answered confidently.
"Chief Li, this is a trap for the people of Nightmare Villa!" Yin Jingduan raised his eyebrows, and said with a look of understanding.
"Why do you say that?" Li Jialai asked with a smile.
"If they choose to agree, then they must bring the elites to participate. If they choose to refuse, then we will say that they are accomplices of the Ninth King. When the time comes, we do not need to help them; the imperial court will naturally send people to take care of them!" Yin Jingduan directly explained.
"Haha, don't you think that this plan is a good idea, Valley Master Yin?" Li Jialai asked back without hiding it anymore.
"I didn't say that I don't agree!"
"Good!" In that case, let's send a joint cultivation letter to the Nightmare Villa's Villa Master later! "
"That's exactly what I was thinking!"
