Am I the only one who didn't ascend?

No matter how brave a general is, there are opponents he cannot defeat.

This was Huang Long's most profound feeling in the assembly hall of the Immortal Palace.

In this life, as long as he sets foot on the battlefield, he will be fearless. Whether it is the billions of wild beasts that are coming like a tide, or the ancient wild demons who are close to the Mahayana True Monarch, he will always move forward bravely and never back down. He has been fighting all his life and has never been defeated, but as long as he does not die on the spot, no matter how serious the trauma is, he can always find a way to heal himself, and then return to the battlefield as quickly as possible, fighting until the enemy is wiped out, and the Immortal Alliance Until complete victory.

And on the battlefield outside Dinghuang, he is equally brave and unparalleled. No matter you are a rich man with many generations of history or a powerful minister, no one can stop him on the path he is determined to move forward.

However, even Huang Long, who was so brave, finally encountered an opponent that left him helpless.

An opponent who surrenders immediately.

"...To sum up, due to our country's negligence, Zhu Wang and Mo Lin suffered losses. On behalf of the country's leader, Lord Butian, I would like to express my most sincere apology to everyone."

In the meeting hall, a short old man with gray hair stood up from his seat with some difficulty, bowed deeply to the other participants present, and his forehead hit the table in front of him with a bang.

For such an almost deliberate gesture, even if it is as menacing as a yellow dragon, there is no way to criticize him harshly.

Because the old man who apologized on behalf of Yue Yang was indeed qualified to represent Lord Butian.

He is Gao Yuanwang, Butianjun's uncle, a good old man with excellent personal and political reputation. Whenever Yueyang encountered some difficult situations on international issues and needed to negotiate and compromise, Lord Butian would often sacrifice this respected uncle.

When Huang Long saw Gao Yuanwang, he suddenly felt full of anger and had no way to vent his anger.

A few years ago, during the joint military exercises between Mo Lin and Yue Yang, he was responsible for leading a group of Mo Lin elites to Yue Yang, and the leader of the Yue Yang team who was responsible for the reception at that time was Gao Yuanwang. The two formed a very deep friendship during that military exercise. Not only did they secretly go to a restaurant to drink together, but they also used the wine to share the pain of being disciplined by strict children and grandchildren. Later, Gao Yuanwang responded. Huang Long's request introduced many high-quality young talents from Yueyang to Huang Jing.

Although Huang Jing, who was fourteen years old at the time, was furious after hearing the news and broke many of Huang Long's collection of weapons on the spot, and the blind date naturally fell through, Huang Long still accepted the favor.

Facing this like-minded good man, seeing him put on an apologetic posture that was almost kowtow, Huang Long, no matter how unhappy he was with Yue Yang, could only grit his teeth and say: "Old Gao, raise your head, there are no outsiders here. , there’s no need to be so pretentious.”

As Huang Long said, this meeting is not a formal meeting at the level of the heads of state. It is just a meeting between the three countries in advance to establish the general direction. The representatives of the Three Kingdoms are Gao Yuanwang, Huang Long and Wang Luo.

Let these people meet in advance to avoid having the three heads of state attend the meeting in person, only to have a heated argument on the spot over some unresolved issues.

There are actually very few cases like Butian Lord Gao Heng who suddenly attacked Lu Youyou in person and then humiliated himself in Guanghan Palace. Now that the three countries are holding meetings based on the same general direction, they naturally do not want such an accident to happen again.

After being comforted by Huang Long, Gao Yuanwang just gave a wry smile, then straightened up, sat back on his seat tremblingly, picked up the manuscript in front of him, looked down at it, and said: "According to the discussion between Lord Butian and Chief Lu, According to the agreement reached by Guanghan Palace, our country will thoroughly investigate the responsibility of Bai Wei, the lord of Baiyao City, and also sincerely invite friends of Zhu Wang and Mo Lin to participate in the management of this city..."

Huang Long had not known about this verbal agreement between the kings before. Hearing this, he was simply astonished: "Wait a minute, Lao Gao, do you mean that Yueyang plans to cede territory and pay compensation?"

Gao Yuanwang raised his head again, looked at Huang Long, and asked: "General Huang, do you want Yueyang to pay another war compensation?"

"Hey, Lao Gao, please don't deliberately misinterpret... By the way, Master Wangshan, you guys should not pay compensation, right?"

Wang Luo shook his head: "That's not the point."

Huang Long said: "Yes, that's not the point. Lao Gao, don't blame me for speaking frankly. Your Yueyang offer is too cheap. When we were drinking, you told me that the prices in Yueyang Restaurant were low. You can never buy Taiqing wine worth two thousand spirit leaves..."

Before he finished speaking, Huang Long felt a chill coming from behind him.

As an entourage, Huang Jing abided by her duties very calmly and never disturbed the normal progress of the meeting. But on the other hand, she also performed her duties as a granddaughter very calmly, writing down in her notebook her grandfather Huang Long's audacity, colluding with foreign friends, and secretly drinking alcohol.

When the meeting is over, I will settle the score with him!

On the other side, Gao Yuanwang explained helplessly: "If we don't offer cheaper conditions, how can we make the Lord of the Deer Kingdom and Lord Yulong give up? General Huang, since you said there are no outsiders here, I might as well be honest. Tell me, if I hadn’t come this time, would you have let Yueyang go so easily?”

Huang Long couldn't help but snorted, but he didn't deny it.

Before he came, he even went to Lingshan Mountain to find Wang Luo and give him a decisive greeting. Of course, he was not here to let Yue Yang off easily.

Gao Yuanwang added: "Moreover, whether you believe it or not, General, in fact, the position of the ruler of this country on the issue of famine has never wavered. It's just that many times, even the leader of the country cannot help himself. General, This is by no means an excuse for the Lord, but an objective reality. You have been fighting on the front line of Molin for many years and have experienced many injustices. You should know better than anyone that loopholes in the determination of famine often exist. It’s not something the superiors did intentionally, but they still exist and expand, and many times we have to pay a heavy price for cleaning them up.”

These words hit Huang Long's pain.

When it comes to famine determination loopholes, which country doesn’t have one? His closest comrade-in-arms, Lu Jun, died because of an extremely ridiculous loophole. Later, if this generation of Yulongjun had not used thunderous methods to eliminate those rebellious people, I am afraid that huge loophole would have swallowed up more things.

"Now, although there are indeed conflicts and misunderstandings between our three countries, at least the convening of this meeting and the conditions that Lord Butian instructed me to convey are undoubtedly a sign that the situation has improved. I hope that in the next work , we can work together to clear the air, avoid unnecessary internal friction, and use all resources against our common enemy."

Gao Yuanwang's words were so sincere that they almost dispelled all the anger in Huang Long's heart.

Only Wang Luo's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
