Chapter 1250 The Final Decision

A gloomy atmosphere enveloped the meeting room, and everyone was frowning and angry.

The news that just came out shocked all the high-level people in Nirvana City, and at the same time they were full of resentment towards the gods.

Earlier, when Jiangcheng was occupied by the gods and Jimo and Wenren were imprisoned, although Gong Xiaobai and the others were anxious, they were not worried about their safety, because they believed that no matter how stupid the gods were, they would not harm them .

But just a day and a half after the Goddess made the condition, another piece of bad news came.

Jimo and Wenren escaped from prison together with Shi Kodi, the traitor of the god-descendant tribe and the former commander of the army, and attempted to assassinate the emperor and the great elder. The emperor's majesty punishes the crime of treason and immorality.

"bump"

Lu Yichuan slapped the table angrily and stood up.

"Assassination, I think the gods are just looking for an excuse to use the lives of two adults, Jimo and Wenren, to force us to agree to their terms."

But what he didn't know was that the gods were not making excuses, the emperor and the great elder were indeed assassinated by Jimo and the others.

"Your Highness, this is absolutely unbearable, send troops to save people."

His words aroused the approval of many generals in the army, and they all called for troops to fight to the death with the god-descendants.

"Quiet."

Du Si stopped the irritable generals with an ugly face.

Chen Fang was not there, Du Si was the most prestigious person in the army, and when he came forward, the generals all shut up and quieted down.

Seeing that the people were quiet, the Du Si saluted Gong Xiaobai and said, "Your Highness, regardless of whether Jimo and Wenren were assassinated in real or fake, the God-descendants are sending us this news specially for the purpose of sharing the news with you." It’s the same as what Xiao Lu said, in order to force us to agree to their terms.”

Gong Xiaobai felt the same way, and asked, "Then do you have any thoughts on the current situation?"

Du Si said in a deep voice: "My opinion is still the same as before, that is to send troops to attack Jiangcheng."

Everyone was shocked when they heard that, Du Si didn't intend to save Jimo and Wen Ren's lives.

Gong Xiaobai's face changed, and he wanted to say no, but before he could say anything, Lewis stood up and objected: "Have you ever thought that sending troops will not only fail to save Jimo and Wenren, but will also kill the citizens of Jiangcheng."

Du Si naturally knew what the outcome of sending troops would be, and said: "In this situation, only sending troops is the best result. Once a fight breaks out, the gods will have no time to kill the people in the city. As long as we are decisive enough to defeat them in a short time God-descendants, if we take back Jiangcheng, we will be able to avoid causing more casualties."

These words directly revealed that Du Si had indeed given up on the idea of ​​Jimo and Wenren.

Lewis said angrily: "Even if what you said can be realized, the two adults Jimo and Wenren will definitely die, and during the battle, the gods will definitely kill the city residents and disturb our army's morale. Have you ever thought about it?"

Du Si bowed his head and said in a deep voice: "In any confrontation, sacrifice is inevitable. The sacrifice of a small number of people is worth the survival of the majority of people, and the fact that Nirvana City will not be dragged down by the unreasonable conditions of the gods."

The point is cruel, but its truth cannot be denied.

Lewis shouted: "Absolutely not, I don't agree with being so radical, let's not talk about whether it is possible to defeat the Goddess in a short period of time, even if it is possible, if the Goddess is about to be defeated, the whole city of the Goddess will die together what to do."

Under the stimulation of desperation, it is not impossible for a race as proud as the gods to die together.

Dusi was silent. He really hadn't considered the situation Lewis said.

Seeing that Dou Si had stopped talking, Lewis turned to Gong Xiaobai and said, "Your Highness, I think you can agree to the conditions of the God-descendants."

This remark aroused dissatisfaction among many people in the military, and they scolded them.

Lewis ignored them and continued: "Accepting their conditions is just to stabilize the gods first, at least to buy a lot of time for us to figure out a way, unlike now, because of the other party's restrictions, we can't do it at all. Come up with a reasonable solution in a short period of time.”

Gong Xiaobai's eyes lit up, and he felt that it was indeed a good suggestion.

The reason why they are so anxious now is not because the time given by the other party is too short, which made everyone mess up for a while.

It is a good strategy for Xu and Snake to agree first, to pay something during the period, to paralyze the gods, and to wait until they figure out a way to deal with them.

Just when Gong Xiaobai was about to agree, Lu Yichuan suddenly stood up and retorted: "Lord Lewis, the divine descendants are not stupid. If we agree to their conditions, they will definitely propose to sign a contract. You don't think they even have a copy You can’t even take out the ancient contract.”

Hearing the ancient contract, everyone's expressions changed.

After signing this contract, those who break the contract will be nailed to the pillar of shame for a hundred years and will be cast aside for thousands of years, and life would be worse than death.

Lu Yichuan's sudden mention of this contract was not out of purpose. Although there are not many ancient contracts, it happens that each of the five royal families in the southern border has one. This is something everyone knows.

Although I don't know if the gods have used it secretly, but as long as the other party is useless, there is a high probability that it will be used in this incident.

"Agree to their terms, the God-descendants must sign the contract immediately, and they must sign it with His Highness. Once signed, we still have room to go back on it?" Lu Yichuan said.

Lewis was immediately speechless.

And once signed this contract, the charming woman who has not said a word at the meeting until now also shows a look of fear.

If Chen Fang hadn't used the "Justice Comes from Heaven" teammate contract to help her get out of the ancient contract, now she can only obediently become the plaything of the third prince of the Demon Race, and even the Wu family will be dragged into the abyss.

If Gong Xiaobai signs this contract, he is not as lucky as she is, and can get Chen Fang to help cancel the contract, because "Justice Comes from Heaven" is full.

"But the gods may not use this contract." An official who agreed with Lewis's idea said.

Du Si said coldly: "The god-descendants are at the end of their ropes now, how could they not grasp the last straw."

The official opened his mouth, but finally remained silent.

So the main battle and the main and the two sides, after refuting each other's proposals, fell silent.

Seeing the silence of the crowd, Gong Xiaobai said anxiously: "Does anyone have any new suggestions?"

After a moment of silence, someone stood up and said, "Your Highness, I have an idea. I don't know if it will work."

Gong Xiaobai looked over and saw that the speaker was a familiar face but didn't know the name, so he whispered awkwardly to the charming person beside him, "Who is this person?"

If it was normal, Wu Mei would definitely give Bai Yan a chance to scold Gong Xiaobai, but at this time she was not in the mood, looked up and said: "The original Jiangcheng Bai family member is now working in the government affairs department, and his name seems to be Bai Cheng."

Gong Xiaobai nodded, looked at the official and said, "Bai Cheng, what suggestion do you have?"

Bai Cheng said respectfully: "Your Highness, I think it is possible to combine the ideas of Mr. Du Si and Mr. Lewis."

Gong Xiaobai asked curiously, "How to merge?"

Bai Chengdao: "Send troops, but don't fight, only besiege."

Gong Xiaobai asked, "How do you say it?"

Bai Cheng replied: "The dispatch of troops is to show our uncompromising attitude to the descendants of the gods. The siege is not to fight, and it is to let the descendants of the gods know that we still have room. This creates a window for the two parties to negotiate."

Everyone present was thoughtful upon hearing this.

Bai Cheng continued: "Of course, during the siege, the descendants of the gods will inevitably kill people to threaten us to retreat, so at this time we need to hold back anyway, as long as we can hold back, the descendants of the gods will realize that the hostages cannot If they threaten us, will they still kill people?"

Bai Cheng glanced at the thoughtful people present and then said: "When they realize that the hostages can't force us to submit, and we surround them without fighting, the god-born people will definitely understand that this is a gift from us." Opportunity, definitely send someone to negotiate with us."

"And as long as we ask them to leave Jiangcheng and release the citizens of Jiangcheng, we will let the past go. Presumably they will agree."

"In this way, we can take back Jiangcheng without spending a single soldier, avoiding the loss of soldiers and generals in the battle with the gods, and guaranteeing the lives of most people in Jiangcheng."

At this point, Bai Cheng's words are over.

Everyone in the meeting room whispered and discussed what he said.

Gong Xiaobai couldn't help but said after listening, "Then what will happen to Jimo and Wenren?"

Bai Cheng was taken aback for a moment, he looked at Gong Xiaobai strangely and said: "Of course they might be taken as hostages by the gods to threaten us when our soldiers besieged Jiangcheng, and then..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but Bai Cheng's meaning was actually very obvious.

Jimo and Wenren were likely to become victims in anger because the gods could not get a compromise from Nirvana City.

Gong Xiaobai's expression turned pale.

Looking at Gong Xiaobai's face, Bai Cheng knew that he had said something that Gong Xiaobai didn't want to hear, but he couldn't do anything about it, and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness, unless you can agree to the conditions of the gods, as long as we send troops , the life and death of the two adults can only be determined by the meaning of the gods at that time."

There is hope in Bai Cheng's words, but everyone knows that this chance is slim.

The God-descendants are notoriously arrogant. Although they seldom go out to communicate with others, they are not really isolated from the world. There are still many people present who have contact with the God-descendants.

It's not that no one knows the virtues of the divine race.

Once Nirvana City sends troops to besiege the city, those who have dealt with the gods will know that a proud gods will definitely feel provoked, and there is a high probability that they will kill Jimo and Wenren. On the one hand, it is as a test. I want to show Nirvana City that I am not joking, on the one hand it is to understand Qi.

"Your Highness, I think Bai Cheng's proposal is feasible." Du Si suddenly stood up and said.

Lewis then came forward to agree.

They feel that compared with their own proposal, Bai Cheng's proposal can avoid the worst situation in their previous proposal.

After Du Si and Lewis stood up, others also echoed Bai Cheng's proposal, saying that it was the most reliable and feasible plan at present.

But Gong Xiaobai is still hesitating, because if he agrees, then Jimo and Wenren may be killed.

No way, Sister Jimo and Sister Wenren are dead, when uncle comes back, how should I explain to him, Gong Xiaobai thought to himself.

Gong Xiaobai knew the importance of Jimo and Wenren in Chen Fang's heart, and he was already regarded as family by Chen Fang.

If they were allowed to die, even if it was unavoidable, Chen Fang would not forgive him. Although there is Wu Yaoyan as a bond, the relationship between the two parties will not be completely cold, but there must be a gap.

Gong Xiaobai doesn't want to have a estrangement with Chen Fang, this will make it difficult for Wu Yaoyan to do so.

Apart from Chen Fang, Gong Xiaobai didn't want Jimo and Wen Ren, the two sisters who were usually good to him, to die from his own feelings.

"Auntie, what should I do? I don't want Sister Jimo and Sister Wenren to have an accident. Uncle will go crazy."

Gong Xiaobai turned to his aunt for help.

At this time, Meimei was also struggling in her heart. From an emotional point of view, she did not want Jimo and Wenren to die, but she had to consider the interests of Gong Xiaobai and the Wu family.

In the current situation, there are only two ways to go, one is to send troops, the other is to compromise, but the latter will undoubtedly damage the huge interests of Nirvana City, and if Nirvana City is damaged, Gong Xiaobai and the samurai who are now completely tied to the same interests, There will also be huge losses.

What's more, as mentioned by Lu Yichuan, if the descendants of the gods come up with an ancient contract and Gong Xiaobai signs it at that time, then Nirvana City will have to go to the southern border to retake the sacred mountain of the city of God for the descendants of the gods according to the treaty. Undoubtedly there will be a price to pay.

If Mei Mei had nothing to do with Gong Xiaobai and the Wu family, she would definitely put the safety of Jimo and Mei Mei's lives first, and consider countermeasures, but unfortunately she couldn't with her current status.

But then again, she couldn't agree to any option that would kill Jimo and Wenren.

The reason is the same as Gong Xiaobai, one is the relationship between her and them, and the other is that Chen Fang is involved.

Between Meimei, Jimo, and Wenren, there was a bit of competition between them because of someone, but it was undeniable that they were like sisters, so she didn't want anything to happen to them.

And if something happens to Jimo and Wenren, Mei Mei believes that Chen Fang will go crazy, and when he knows that it is Gong Xiaobai and her who agreed to send troops, then she and him will definitely be like passers-by. I absolutely don't want to be so charming.

And there is another point, Chen Fang has played an absolute role in the development of Nirvana City to this day. If something happens to Jimo and Wenren, will Chen Fang still do his best for Nirvana City in despair?

The answer is no.

These are the things that Mei Mei struggles with without saying a word today.

When Gong Xiaobai asked her, Mei Mei knew that she could no longer be silent, so she gritted her teeth and made a decision.

"Jimo and Wenren cannot die."

"Xiaobai, prepare to agree to the terms of the god-descendant race."

Gong Xiaobai was taken aback for a moment, then nodded without hesitation.

"Ok, I see."

Seeing that Gong Xiaobai agreed so readily, she said seriously: "You are sure, you must know that once you agree, Nirvana City will be led by the nose in the future by the gods, and it has finally developed and accumulated to the current level, and it will be destroyed. And the other party is likely to come up with an ancient contract for you to sign, and if you break the contract, you will..."

Gong Xiaobai said relaxedly: "As long as you don't break the contract, it will be fine. If it is destroyed once, it will be destroyed once. At worst, it will start all over again. Anyway, uncle is here."

Charming couldn't help laughing and said: "You have a lot of confidence in your uncle."

Gong Xiaobai smiled, his gaze was firm.

Seeing Gong Xiaobai like this, Mei Mei felt relieved, and said to all the people in the meeting room who were waiting for them to make a decision: "Send an envoy to inform the God-descendants that the conditions can be agreed, but Jimo and Wenren must be released first."

"What!"

Hearing this decision, everyone was shocked.
