Three Kingdoms Mythology World.

The atmosphere in the chat room was heavy because they had not bought the second-rank governor position. You know, they had already discussed the distribution of benefits in advance. Once Jiang Chenglong became the governor, even if it was the governor of Liangzhou or Jiaozhou, the player group would be able to gain a firm foothold. At that time, this state would completely belong to the players.

If the players unite to defend that state, they may be able to shine in the future battle for supremacy.

Unfortunately...the plan failed...

It's not that the timing is not right, nor that the chips are not enough. For players, this moment is the most suitable to buy the position of governor. However, even if it is the most suitable time, He Jin, Zhang Rang and others will not sell it.

Lin Mu actually admired the player, who directly praised so many grades and directly purchased the second-grade governor. You know, the status of the governor is very special. For some people, even the position of the general cannot compare to its importance.

"You can change direction and buy from Empress Dowager He, Empress Dowager Dong or the young emperor." After a long silence in the chat room, Lin Mu gave an idea.

"Lord Lin Mu is right. We have a follow-up plan, which is to negotiate with them. At that time, we will directly tie the players to their boats and see if they agree!" Jiang Chenglong's calm voice came.

"Oh... so you have follow-up plans." Lin Mu responded.

With so many advisers behind them, they will consider the follow-up responses after failure.

In fact, they wanted Lin Mu to take the initiative and use the National Defense Army as a bargaining chip to lean on Empress Dowager He and He Jin, so that Jiang Chenglong could be pushed to the position of governor. They also proposed this to Lin Mu.

However, Lin Mu directly rejected their proposal. Are you kidding? The Great Wilderness Territory has a set strategy and will not harm its own interests like this. The reason why the National Defense Army has such a low sense of existence is because he rarely participates in the court meetings of the Divine Capital Luoyang. He was attacked because Liu Hong promoted him too quickly, which affected the interests of some people and therefore targeted him.

Although he seemed to be in the eunuch camp, a series of actions afterwards made him leave the camp and wander outside the major camps, so there has never been an imperial decree to remotely dismiss him.

They all asked him to return to the capital first, have a "heart-to-heart talk" to win him over, and then depose him if the talks failed.

Even though he was wrongly accused of losing three million troops, no imperial decree of dismissal was issued. He was only asked to return to Shendu and hand over the troops to Liu Yu.

In short, Lin Mu has always been at a balance point. And this balance point was created by Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, Xun You and others, not because of luck, nor because the enemy is kind.

"Yes... We even regard Liu Xie and Dong Zhuo as backup options, because he will ascend the throne with Dong Zhuo's support later. Even during Dong Zhuo's period, the value of the position of governor was very high." Xuanyuan Changying responded.

Wow... that's an idea! After seeing the reply, Lin Mu agreed with their plan very much.

Especially if you hang out with the big devil Dong Zhuo, once he comes to power, he may really give the player the position of governor.

After that, the chat room fell silent again, and everyone was waiting for Jiang Chenglong's action.

After exiting the chat room, Lin Mu privately chatted with Ji Beiqin: "10 billion Destiny Gold Coins, do you have so many? How did you get them?"

Lin Mu was curious about the source of the 10 billion destiny gold coins in Jiang Chenglong's chips.

"Basically, they were traded from other players. Jiang Chenglong and the others all met destiny merchants and exchanged destiny rings, destiny bracelets and other conversion tools from them." Ji Beiqin responded immediately.

"They... have all activated the Destiny Merchant?!" Lin Mu was slightly surprised.

“Yes, it was after the last trip to the Star Spirit Realm that everyone opened it, including me.” Ji Beiqin said in a deep voice.

"I have shared the information with you. Didn't you read it?" Ji Beiqin asked again.

"I didn't look at it in detail..." Lin Mu said perfunctorily. In fact, he didn't look at it at all, because it was all trivial matters before, and he was not interested.

“Hehe… before, you monopolized the destiny coins and made a fortune. After everyone became destiny merchants, you turned from leeks into vegetable farmers and started to reap the benefits of other players.” Ji Beiqin joked.

"In fact, it's all thanks to you. All the players in the Chinese region have gained a lot of permanent reputation buffs. Combined with the reputation from daily tasks, we have accumulated terrifying data. Although most of them have been consumed by Destiny Merchants and others to buy a lot of rare items, there are still hundreds of millions of Destiny Gold Coins active in the market." Ji Beiqin said quickly.

"How is the exploration of the overseas islands going?" Lin Mu ignored Ji Beiqin's praise and changed the subject.

"I know you definitely didn't read the player information..." Ji Beiqin was speechless.

"In the waters near Qingzhou and Xuzhou, many islands were found, and fierce battles and fights occurred there. It is a custom that disputes over overseas islands should not involve disputes over land territories, and land offensives should not be launched without authorization. The ground lost in the fight for islands can only be recovered at sea." Ji Beiqin said quickly. "I also participated in the fight. Fifty thousand sailors who were trained with great difficulty were swallowed up by nearly thirty thousand, which was a huge loss." Ji Beiqin said in a serious tone.

"You didn't get one?" Lin Mu smiled slightly.

It is impossible to stop players from exploring the islands. There are too many suspended islands overseas and the coastline of Shenzhou is too long. It is simply impossible for the current size of the Great Wilderness Territory to monopolize it.

"We occupied an island together with Beitang Xue. There are many high-level resources on the island, and we recovered some blood." Ji Beiqin responded.

"By the way, Xiaomu, do you really want to develop so many dependent territories on the prairie? Aren't you afraid of invasions and attacks by foreign cavalry? You know, if you don't believe in their totem gods and don't worship their totem gods every day, you will be attacked, and the number of times is very frequent, and it is difficult to defend against."

"You have established dozens of subordinate territories at once. This is a big step... Everyone is privately discussing when all your subordinate territories will be razed to the ground." Ji Beiqin talked on and on for a long time.

"It's okay, just fight back. I opened up so many affiliated territories to raise horses, sheep and cattle, among which horses are the most important." Lin Mu responded calmly.

"You are really brave, boy. We have all tried to open up the prairie before, but we all failed and suffered a lot of losses." Ji Bei said admiringly.

"Hehe... Can we build one or two subsidiary territories near your subsidiary territory to raise horses?" Ji Beiqin talked a lot, and it turned out to be just because of this sentence.

"Why don't you develop towards the border of Bingzhou, but come to Youzhou instead?" Lin Mu asked instead of answering.

"The foreign tribes in Bingzhou are really fierce. Together with the remnants of the Yellow Turbans and the palace soldiers such as Lu Bu and Dian Wei, they have made the border of Bingzhou a mess. Many lord players have been beaten back to their original form and directly gave up their birth points and moved to the Central Plains. Some have directly given up their lord profession and become rangers."

"I established seven or eight subordinate territories, but they were all razed to the ground," Ji Beiqin said helplessly.

Players seem to have great development momentum, but in many places it is not very ideal, or even very bad. This is also what makes many players reconsider the lord profession. This can also be regarded as the survival of the fittest.

"The prairie I have enclosed was carefully considered and cannot accommodate you." Lin Mu ruthlessly rejected his brother-in-law's request.

"You kid... tell me honestly, does the fight between the golden dragon and the white wolf have anything to do with you?" Ji Beiqin asked again after shaking his head helplessly.

Ji Beiqin always felt that the prairie was very strange, so even if Lin Mu refused, he was not very surprised.

"Related." Lin Mu only replied with two words, and did not reveal anything else. Even if he did, saying that he was the golden dragon, Ji Beiqin might not believe it.

"The land I have enclosed is actually the bottom line of several big bosses, so, you know..." Lin Mu responded vaguely.

"No wonder you established a subsidiary territory within that circle, and the battlefield defense line didn't expand outward at all." Ji Beiqin said suddenly.

"Then I will continue with the previous routine and let other players go there to believe in the so-called gods, establish territories, seek refuge with foreign races, raise horses, and then trade them to me." Ji Beiqin said helplessly.

In fact, many players are using this routine. Even Lin Mu has used it before, but he did not trade with players, but traded privately with several big merchants in Youzhou, and got a lot of high-quality war horses in return.

"Okay, let's stop talking. I have to get busy. By the way, are you coming to encircle and suppress Zhang Ju?" Lin Mu asked.

"No, most of my elite troops have followed Dong Zhuo. Let those soldiers from the small guilds following you deal with it on their own." Ji Beiqin responded.

My goodness, Ji Beiqin has actually surrendered to Dong Zhuo. There must be a lot of tricks involved. But Lin Mu didn't ask.

If his guess was correct, Dong Zhuo would have deployed his troops outside Sili long ago. Ji Beiqin's troops might be following behind him, hiding near Sili or even inside the territory.

After hanging up the call, Lin Mu met with Yu Jin and Le Jin to discuss the encirclement and suppression of Zhang Ju. After Ji Beiqin hung up the call, he walked out of a tent.

Outside the tents were connected camps with curling smoke and flags flying everywhere.

Just as Lin Mu expected, Dong Zhuo's army had already gathered and entered Sili! (End of this chapter)
