Chapter 858 Post-war public opinion

Wu Zhongyuan was already asleep when Wang Xinran came out of the bathroom. Although Wang Xinran was very tired, she did not lie down next to Wu Zhongyuan. Instead, she changed her clothes and sat at the table, holding a cigarette in her mouth and wiping her gun.

There was a reason why she didn't lie down next to Wu Zhongyuan, because based on the time, it was inferred that Jiang Nan, Li Bie and others were coming back soon, and they would definitely come to report to Wu Zhongyuan by then.

Although Wu Zhongyuan fell asleep, he was not ignorant. He could hear Wang Xinran smoking and cleaning his gun. These subtle noises not only did not upset him, but also made him feel at ease.

Jiang Nan and Li Bie both came back before noon. Wang Xinran went out to talk to them. Although their voices were very low, Wu Zhongyuan still heard them talking about the casualties of their own soldiers. All the soldiers of the three tribes had been killed and injured in the demon world before, and After returning, they immediately went into battle and rushed to help everywhere. In the bloody battle, there were more casualties. Now, both the Taurus Warriors and the Golden Crow Warriors have lost more than thirty people.

Wu Zhongyuan heard their conversation but did not get up. Attrition in war was inevitable. Fortunately, he still had some inventory. There was still some remaining purple energy elixir he brought back from Yanyun Mountain. He could re-select people and use these elixirs. Help him improve his cultivation and replenish the reduced number of soldiers and firearms guards of the three tribes.

A Luo came over in the late afternoon, but did not go in. He only said a few words to Wang Xinran outside the door, which roughly meant that the old blind man had stabilized his mind and started to preside over the work of the six ministries. At this time, he was summarizing the battle with officials from various ministries. One's own losses.

Wu Di returned in the evening. She had previously driven the King of Eagles to inspect the various cities, and had an intuitive understanding of the conditions in each city.

Wu Zhongyuan knew that Wu Di was back, so he was not in a hurry to get up, because Wu Di would definitely have to communicate with the old blind man and others before making a formal report to him.

At about seven o'clock in the evening, Wang Xinran woke Wu Zhongyuan and said, "Get up, everyone is here and waiting for you in front."

Wu Zhongyuan turned over and sat up, taking a deep breath.

Wang Xinran poured a glass of water and handed it over, "Would you like something to eat?"

"Why don't you think about eating? Let's go meet them first." Wu Zhongyuan took the water glass and drank it in one gulp, put on his shoes and went to the ground.

At this time, it was snowing outside. Wang Xinran put on Wu Zhongyuan's cloak and accompanied him to the front hall. At this time, the front of Zhongtian Hall was already full of people, and the six ministries' meeting hall was also brightly lit.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan's arrival, everyone half-knelt down to salute. Wu Zhongyuan waved to everyone, "Let's go in and talk."

Wu Zhongyuan was the first to enter the Zhongtian Hall and sat on the dragon chair.

The princes, officials of the six ministries, and the purple energy masters in the city then entered the palace and sat down respectively.

Everyone's emotions were polarized, and most people were in a relatively good mood because the human race had blocked the allied forces of the four demon, devil, and dragon tribes in this battle, and Wu Zhongyuan returned in time at the critical moment to turn the tide and turn defeat into victory.

The ones who are most depressed are those at the core of power, because they know more about the situation than others and know more inside information than others.

After Wu Zhongyuan sat down, he was not in a hurry to speak, but said to Wang Xinran, "Pour me a cup of tea."

Wang Xinran stood up and went to pour tea. Wu Zhongyuan said to Wu Di and Jiang Nan, "It's cold and the ground is freezing. I'll pour you some tea to warm up."

The two nodded in agreement.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan instructing the two queens to pour tea for them, many of the royal highnesses were frightened and stood up one after another, thanking and declining.

"Everyone, please sit down," Wu Zhongyuan pressed his hand, "Prime Minister, please tell us about the situation everywhere."

After hearing this, the old blind man stood up and said, "The human race has won a complete victory in this battle, wiping out more than 300,000 enemies. The enemy's vitality has been severely damaged. After this battle, they will no longer be able to compete with us head-on."

After the old blind man finished speaking, everyone showed great joy.

Wu Zhongyuan smiled and said, "The old nest has been invaded. How can we win a complete victory? Let's talk about our losses."

Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, the old blind man had a look of shame on his face, "There are dead and wounded in all the seventy-two walled cities, mostly warriors and soldiers, with fewer civilians. Roughly speaking, there are about three thousand warriors killed, and there must be some soldiers." There are more than 20,000, and civilians should be in the tens of thousands."

"How much is between thousands?" Wu Zhongyuan asked casually.

"Nearly ten thousand." The old blind man replied.

"Also, how much food and grass were lost?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

The old blind man hesitated.

Wu Zhongyuan took a sip of tea and said with ease, "There are no outsiders here. Let's talk so that everyone can understand."

"There is no exact number yet." The old blind man shook his head and said.

"Of the seventy-two walled cities, how many were destroyed and turned into granaries?" Wu Zhongyuan asked in a different way.

When the old blind man hesitated, Wu Di replied, "Thirty-six, exactly half."

"How is the situation in Yinma River?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

"The ones who invaded Yinma River were the ghost soldiers. Fortunately, Yinma River had people from Taiping Village to help defend the city, and also got help from mysterious masters, so the ghost tribe couldn't get any advantage." Wu Di poured tea for the old blind man and took the opportunity. Help him return to his seat.

"Mysterious master?" Wu Zhongyuan asked, tilting his head.

"A mysterious young man, who has the magic ability to burn bones into ashes and the ability to freeze in cold air," the old blind man said. "The Lord of Yinma River City cherishes talents and loves them. He retains the courtesy and recommends him. He only said: This person is worthy of a big job and has the talent to assist Bi Zhushi."

Hearing the old blind man's words, Wang Xinran turned to look at Wu Zhongyuan, who nodded at him.

The old blind man and the black widow didn't know who this person was, but he and Wang Xinran knew it. He had never been sure about Lin Qingming's identity. The reason was very simple. Lin Qingming and he were brothers, and he didn't want to make Lin Qingming his own. subordinates.

"This matter will be discussed later," Wu Zhongyuan said casually, then asked, "What's the situation with the Yi and the Shark tribe?"

Wu Di said, "Previously, the Holy Emperor ordered Qingdu and Zhulang to stay at Dongguan. Therefore, they were not in the city when the war broke out. Without the leader in charge, the defense was not good and the losses were relatively large."

"Is there any loss in stored grain?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.

"Yes, the rice, grain, and meat of the Yi and the Shark people were all destroyed," Wu Di said.

"Prime Minister." Wu Zhongyuan called the name.

"Wei Chen is here." The old blind man stood up again.

"Immediately allocate rice and grain from the national treasury to support the Yi and Yu people." Wu Zhongyuan said.

When the old blind man looked serious, Wu Zhongyuan looked at Wu Di again, "You have visited various places before and know the situation better than the Prime Minister. Do you know how much Gao Zhan's wolf clan has lost?"

"Half of the three thousand elite troops were lost," Wu Di said, "Thanks to His Majesty's timely return. Otherwise, the Wolf Clan would probably have been wiped out, and several important border towns such as Daze would not be able to be saved."

"Pass the decree," Wu Zhongyuan said sternly, "Zhulang, go to the Qing capital, Gao Zhan, each with a crown and cloak will be promoted to the first level. The other people will be discussed by the Prime Minister and the six ministries, and rewarded as appropriate."

The old blind man and others should be serious.

Wu Zhongyuan added, "When I was trapped in the demon world, I had the Taurus warrior Jiang Qi who was with me in the same boat. He was very loyal and loyal. I specially promoted Jiang Qi to the title of King Lufeng, and he spread the decree to the world and made it known to everyone."

"Yes." The old blind man and the chief and deputy heads of the Ministry of Personnel nodded in agreement.

"Right now, we are short of rice and grain, and the various cities and towns are helping each other to provide rice and grain to tide over the difficulties together," Wu Zhongyuan said. "This matter is still coordinated by the Prime Minister's Office."

Wu Zhongyuan said again, "Wu Laoer, you will lead the Heiji Mountain tribe to build caves and rebuild refuges in various large cities."

Wu Laoer had short legs and jumped down from his chair to receive the order.

"The soldiers of the three tribes and the firearms guards were selected and replenished in time." Wu Zhongyuan said.

The relevant personnel nodded to accept the order.

Wu Zhongyuan then told everyone about what he had done in the demon world and the fact that the Beast King sent people to borrow the scent after returning, and then said, "I have killed the Demon King and the Demon King, but I am worried that the Centipede Insect will die. It’s not stiff, the situation is roughly like this at the moment. How should we deal with the five paths next? You all can express your opinions and speak freely..."
