240th new challenge
No. 240 New Challenge
In the lonely sea of Ledong Island, in Fu Yongyou's eyes, it was a piece of dead land.
If Ni Du Fan continues to block Ledong Island, what hope can there be in the future?
Fu Yongyou couldn't see hope, nor did he believe that He Luqian could let him see hope.
Fu Yongyou's conditioned reflex wanted to express his objection.
But when the words came to his mouth, Fu Yongyou suddenly remembered that he had been defeated by He Luqian head-on and had no right to dominate the future of Ledong Island as the first person. Fu Yongyou sighed, withdrew all objections, and responded to He Luqian's confidence and high spirits in silence.
When the three heroes of Anle held the power of Ledong Island together, they were both contradictory and unified, and often made noises to reach various compromises. He Luqian had not yet advanced to the super category, and he did not defeat Fu Yongyou with an overwhelming advantage during the competition. He must have been unable to monopolize the power like Fu Yongyou before.
In other words, the power dispersed pattern of Ledong Island will not change at all. At most, the three masters of Anle will become the four masters of Anle. Fan Shiyou and Guan Fuyou brothers did not accept Fu Yongyou in the past, but today it is difficult for He Luqian, who is only stronger than Fu Yongyou.
If He Luqian and Fan Shiyou and Guan Fuyou disagree, the two brothers will definitely unite and boycott He Luqian like they would resist Fu Yongyou.
He Luqian knew that he would not be limited by any talent. As long as the player did not disappear suddenly, he was destined to easily advance to the Superior. Therefore, He Luqian now does not need to intrigue with the three heroes of Anle. When he advances to the Superior, he will win people's hearts with the concept of martial arts as the most respectful thing, and then there will be no problem.
Against this background, He Luqian needs to help Fu Yongwei as a buffer for He Luqian, Fan Shiwei, and Guan Fuhou brothers. Furthermore, no matter what shortcomings Fu Yongwei has, Ledong Island is now inseparable from his military power. Only when the four people form a joint alliance of common fronts can Ledong Island successfully defeat the Ni Du Fan Ping Lewang coalition.
After thinking a little about the pros and cons, He Luqian decisively reciprocates Fu Yonglei: "In the early years of the rebellion, the Luo Chao, and the You Chao, the left and right prime ministers were all set up. I am willing to shoulder the responsibilities of the left prime minister and find a way out; but Ledong Island cannot do without the position of Fu Huizhu and the right prime minister, so I also ask Fu Huizhu to carry it for a few more years."
Fan Shiyou and Guan Fuyou's brothers may be afraid of He Lu's dominance, and they also abandoned the previous conflicts and spoke kindly to persuade Fu Yongyou to take office as the right prime minister.
Fu Yongyou probably didn't have the intention to completely retreat. After being persuaded by the three of them for a while, he changed his attitude with a reluctant expression: "Since that's the case, I'll try for a few more years."
He Luqian won three battles, so of course he ranked first in the position of the left prime minister; Fu Yongyi's military power was second only to He Luqian, ranking second in the position of the right prime minister; Fan Shiyou and Guan Fuyou retreated one place respectively, ranking third and fourth. After the renewal of power from Ledong Island, the four big bosses began to negotiate how to fight the Ni Du Fan Ping Lewang coalition.

The wars on Earth in the 21st century have rules of the countries on Earth, such as not being able to kill prisoners publicly, exterminate and massacre publicly, and not being able to use nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction at will. It is not because these strategies are ineffective, nor because these weapons are inefficient, but because the countries check and balance each other and the people's will, which subjectively limit the cruel boundaries of the war.
Similarly, the people want the world to have war rules that the people want the world, and the indigenous world also have war rules that the indigenous world.
It is not that you must obey these rules 100% pedanticly, but that the cost of violating the rules of war is far greater than the gain.
Taking He Luqian's strategic deterrence as an example, his current regular speed is 207.9 kilometers per hour, and he can fight all day long on various terrains such as sea surface, sea water, and air. In addition to the terrifying maneuvering speed, He Luqian's defense can ignore the coverage attack of ordinary artillery, and He Luqian's fist attack can easily exert the effects of grenades and even artillery shells.
If He Luqian rushed directly to the lair of King Ni Du Fandong and killed everyone when they saw it, he would definitely destroy a city in a very short time.
He Luqian couldn't do this.
Because Ni Du Fan also has strategic deterrence such as Ni Du Fan Dong King and five first-class practitioners, if He Luqian runs to the lair of Ni Du Fan Dong King to kill innocent people, Ni Du Fan Dong King and his subordinates will also run to Ledong Island to fight back against each other.
Furthermore, most practitioners are not destructive madmen, and the circle of practitioners is generally hostile to this unscrupulous killing behavior that harms the innocent. The moment He Luqian attacked the lair of the Mid Poison King Fandong, he became an evil demon and demon in the eyes of all practitioners. Even if the Ai Chao Yijun and the Ai Chao Anche Gun who wanted to kill the other party, they would probably join forces to encircle He Luqian without any grudges at that time.
After all, what everyone is fighting for is a visible interest, rather than one ruined city after another.
The unique culture of cultivators has gradually formed a unique war culture in the indigenous world. Generally speaking, both sides of the war will consciously narrow the scope of war and will not attack civilians and low-level practitioners without any limits. Even though the Rebel Army of the Ancegu Barbarians accused the massacre and atrocities of the Anchegu Barbarians, the purpose of the Anchegu Barbarians is to seize the wealth of the Fengren people and eliminate the roots of their minds to suppress the rebellious emotions of the Fengren people, etc., rather than killing people simply for the sake of killing.
The specific process of war is as simple as absurd.
The war thinking of the indigenous world is very close to the storytelling legends of the twenty-first century on Earth or some games that strive to highlight the role of generals.
To simply describe it, it means "one-on-one challenge" without limiting the number.
Taking the attack on Ledong Island by the Ni Du Fan Ping Le King as an example, the two sides first set up their formations, and then the first-class practitioners came out to fight. The Ni Du Fan Ping Le King had five first-class practitioners, and five stood up; there were four first-class practitioners on Ledong Island, and four stood up to fight the battle between five first-class practitioners VS four first-class practitioners.
It should be noted that in the wars in the indigenous world, one-on-one fights are never demanding single-on-one fighting. Because the number of first-class practitioners is the foundation of war. The small number of first-class practitioners proves that your strength is not good, just admit defeat.
If the battle between first-level practitioners and first-level practitioners can be clearly determined, the war will basically end here. Only when the battle between first-level practitioners is in a deadlock like the Battle of Penggong Island, or some second-level practitioners have the confidence to fight against first-level practitioners, will the group of second-level practitioners become substitute and put on the battlefield.
There is no need to match the troops and the art of formation. The war rules in the indigenous world are so simple that even the mentally retarded can understand it.

Because the advantage was transferred to Ledong Island, Fu Yongyou, who had previously advocated compromise, Fan Shiyou, and Guan Fuyou brothers, all became pro-war factions.
After the four people reached a consensus, Guan Fuyou rushed to Penggong Island alone to submit a letter of war to the Nidu Fan Pingle King coalition, arguing the time and location of the decisive battle; Fu Yongyou and Fan Shiyou led He Luqian to meet with a group of second- and third-grade cultivators, and told everyone the good news of He Luqian defeating the three heroes of Anle: "With Senior He, you will definitely win this battle!"
A group of second-grade and third-grade practitioners were expected to be in an uproar. He Luqian had previously defeated four second-grade practitioners, including Lan Chaozong, Yan Chensong, Jiang Hui, Qiu Yuesheng, etc., which had already made everyone mentally prepared for "He Luqian's promotion to the first-grade practitioner". But no one expected that He Luqian, a veteran, would be so powerful that he could defeat Fu Yongyou.
But there is one thing better to respect culture with martial arts. If you win, you will win, and if you lose, you will lose. No one jumped out and criticized He Luqian for being unreliable, no one questioned He Luqian's unfamiliar with the war at the first-class practitioner level, and no one clearly opposed He Luqian's coming from behind. Strength is the truth, and strength is everything. If He Luqian defeats Fu Yongyou, he is qualified to lead Ledong Island.
Of course, their attitude is limited to "not objecting".
Not objecting is one thing, but sincere support is another. If He Luqian performs poorly and even works in the position of Left Prime Minister, these first- and second-rank practitioners will definitely vote with their feet to express their dissatisfaction: although they dare not provoke He Luqian, they dare to abandon their official position and live in seclusion, surrender to the enemy at the last moment, and temporarily or permanently leave Ledong Island.
Facing He Luqian, who takes office as a new official, most practitioners have a relatively negative neutral attitude: I don’t oppose you, but I don’t support you.
The left prime minister was ranked first in name, but the prestige of He Lu Qian in the hearts of the practitioners was always second to Fu Yongyou and even Fan Shiyou and Guan Fuyou brothers.
The reason is simple, it is talent and age.
Fu Yongyou is a genius who has advanced to the first grade at the age of 23. Although he has been wasting his time, everyone is optimistic that he will be able to advance to the super grade in the future. On the other hand, Fan Shiyou was promoted to the super grade at the age of 34. Even if Fan Shiyou accumulates strength and quickly catches up to the level 99, he will not be recognized by the world: Fan Shiyou's lifelong achievements are likely to end at the first grade.
As for He Luqian's "talent", it is even worse.
He Luqian is sixty years old next year and has already stepped into the coffin with half his foot. Apart from temporary emergency response to Ledong Island for two or three years, what else is worth looking forward to? I just made up my mind to defect to He Luqian this year, and He Luqian suddenly died of illness next year. Isn’t this funny?
Relatively speaking, Fu Yongyi, who is 33 years old this year, is worth looking forward to.
All these things have led to no second-rank or third-rank practitioners who choose to stand in the side of He Luqian. He Luqian held the official seal of the left prime minister who symbolized the highest power of Ledong Island, but was embarrassed to become a lonely man without Deli's confidant and Deli's subordinates.
He Luqian didn't care about these things.
The reason has been mentioned before. When He Luqian steadily advances to the Superior Product, everything will get better.

The commander-in-chief of the King of Pingle's coalition, Yuanshi Bari, responded to Guan Fu's invitation to fight with a tough attitude, and the time for the battle was selected on December 2nd.
When the two sides negotiated the decisive battle site, Fan Shiyou initially set the battlefield at the coastal port of Xinfeng County so that Ledong Island can play its geographical advantage. Fu Yongyou expressed his opposition: "If the enemy soldiers are brought close to Ledong Island, what if they raid the coastal ports?"
Fan Shiyou sneered: "If they dare to harass Ledong Island Harbor, I will also run to Baya City (the headquarters of Ni Du Fan Dongwang), so that they will not be able to live in peace."
Fu Yongyou still objected: "It's not that simple."
"Looking around, Anchebo Bones are hostile to us, Ni Du Fan, Oyster, Shizhu, and Nanman are also hostile to us. Unless Ni Du Fan acts too much, they will never uphold justice for us. Our Ledong Island is vast and sparsely populated, and the harbor often has only a few thousand people, and if thousands of people are killed or injured, it is difficult to attract attention in the martial arts world."
Fu Yongyou and Fan Shiyou had a long dispute, so they changed the decisive battle to Penggong Island, which was far away from Ledong Island.

At the end of November, a bad news came from Penggong Island.
Kaihai's eldest son, Kishinobu Hara, suddenly joined the Nidu Fan Pingle King's coalition as his personal capacity.
Pinghai King Yuan Zhenjing is the four super-class practitioners who are as famous as Pingle King Wei Yunfu, Pingling King and Pingyun King. Pinghai King Yuan Zhenjing's power is slightly stronger than Pingle King Wei Yunfu. He has three first-class practitioners under his command, his eldest son Yuan Xixin, and his second son is the second.
Lezhou is connected to Haizhou. If Yuan Zhenjing and Wei Yunfu form an alliance and the two states are watching over each other, wouldn’t it be possible to send a super brand? Even if Yuan Zhenjing and Wei Yunfu were too lazy to come to Penggong Island in person, Yuan Xixin called two other first-class practitioners in Haizhou to Penggong Island to help the battle, which could instantly offset the advantages brought by He Luqian.
So, the second Battle of Penggong Island suddenly cast a new shadow.
The battle again, which had just stopped for less than a month, was the Sword and Poison Sect, and the Sword and the Sword and the Sword and the Sword and the Sword and the Sword and the Sword and the Sword and the Sword and Pingle King began to become increasingly popular again.
In order to appease the hearts of the people of Ledong Island, He Luqian suddenly remembered Shi Eryun's promise of admitting defeat and sent someone to ask if she could go to Penggong Island to help the battle. Unexpectedly, Shi Eryun simply agreed and led the snake mother Shi Sanyu and Shi Erhui to Xinfeng County that day.
Shisanhui smiled and congratulated He Luqian on behalf of Ziwei Palace: "I hope the sect leader will bloom and grow higher and advance to the super product as soon as possible."
He Luqian politely returned the gift: "Thank you for your help, He will definitely be rewarded in another day."
He Road, Thirteen Clouds, Thirteen Jades, Thirteen Hui led the city of Xinfeng County, and immediately caused a shock in the middle of the high-rise buildings of Ledong Island.
Ordinary second-grade and third-grade practitioners did not know the background of Ziwei Palace and Jiushe Tribe. They suddenly learned that He Luqian had invited two second-grade reinforcements, so shocked that they could not speak. The three masters of Anle and some second-grade practitioners who knew the depth of Ziwei Palace looked at each other and looked at each other even more shocked: "The relationship between He Luqian and Ziwei Palace is far beyond our imagination!"
The three masters of Anle visited Ziwei Palace a few days ago. They said all the good things and were willing to save countless benefits. Twelve Yun turned a deaf ear from beginning to end. When he arrived at He Luqian, he easily called Twelve Yun, the number one master of Ziwei Palace, with a letter. Such a sharp contrast made the three masters of Anle sigh: "Who said that He Luqian has no direct line? The mysterious Ziwei Palace is He Luqian's direct line."
Twelve Yun, Snake Mother Thirteen Jade, Thirteen Hui and other disciples of Ziwei Palace were indifferent to practitioners such as Fan Shiyou, Guan Fuyou, and refused to say a word easily.
Only Fu Yongyou is an exception.
The relationship between Ziwei Palace and Fu Yongyou is quite special.
