The old emperor was indeed somewhat tempted at this moment, for a simple reason: the current situation might mean that they themselves could also make a name for themselves in the world.

"Furthermore, please consider this: humanity is no longer consumed by constant fighting and conflict. That era is over. Wouldn't it be better for everyone to live in harmony, conduct business together, and progress together? Isn't this the outcome everyone hopes to see?"

Therefore, the current situation began to become clear to everyone, especially Xu Fei's statement at this moment, which touched the old emperor's heart.

Under these circumstances, the old lady began to feel relieved. Her biggest worry was that the emperor would act unreasonably at crucial moments, but at least for now, that shouldn't happen again.

"If that's the case, I think our mission is complete. At least now you should understand our true intentions."

The old lady can finally relax and handle the problem herself, but the key is how everyone should act next.

Even the unresolved problems will have a significant impact on everyone until they are resolved. This suggests that they have no opportunity to properly address them at present.

"Let's wait and see. Although I'm not sure what this approach will bring, it's our only hope for now."

This ongoing battle may offer a glimmer of hope, but what they will ultimately decide is how they choose to proceed. Essentially, that's the outcome.

Relatively speaking, this is a new hope. But if it can be completely resolved, then there will be no need to worry too much.

"Let's move on."

And so, Jiang Chuan's side was ready, as a new round of battle would officially begin in two days. Taking this opportunity, he returned home for a short rest.

"Wow! I never expected you to be so amazing this time!"

In fact, Jiang Chuan's feelings upon seeing his son now are indeed different from before.

“Your son is really something. My brother went to Mesopotamia a couple of days ago, and you actually wanted to go with him, saying you wanted to help them.”

"Ha ha!"

Jiang Chuan burst into laughter upon hearing Xu Jiajia's "complaint".

“I’ve said it before, my son is an exceptional person. Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to say more. Don’t worry, there will be more and more of these kinds of things in the future, but we must be prepared.”

In fact, Jiang Chuan was also conflicted, because no one could say for sure whether the current situation could be resolved or what everyone was planning to do.

“If everyone thinks this way right now, then we are in agreement. Son, let me tell you, after this war is over, I may want to discuss something with you first, and I will also take you to these places to travel and see the world.”

In fact, Jiang Chuan had already considered this. Since the way the world operates now is quite similar to what he had previously imagined, he might as well start by raising his child.

However, for the tyrant, this moment was indeed extremely agonizing. With only so few troops remaining and just a few days to rest, it was simply unbearable.

"What are you all thinking now? If this stalemate continues, it will be troublesome. Does anyone have any good ideas?"

These people were now at a loss, unable to come up with any good solutions, as the situation had completely spiraled out of control. "I believe the best course of action right now is to cease hostilities and then send envoys to make direct contact with the ground forces. At the same time, we must take some responsibility for the defeat. We understand they have a federation; we should actively participate in it, at least to ensure our position is maintained."

"I share the same view. We definitely can't win. Besides, our very survival in this world is already in jeopardy."

"Is this how it ends?..."

These words immediately plunged the once-confident tyrant into a profound sense of powerlessness. He could never have imagined that his army would perform so poorly.

"If I had known this would happen, I should have thoroughly investigated the human military strength before the war. They are indeed too strong. How could I have known they would adopt such a combat method from the very beginning?"

In fact, when the tyrant insisted on launching this war, many ministers and generals opposed it, which was one of the key reasons for their eventual defeat.

The current situation is simply too overwhelming for them to handle, and their next course of action will depend on the consequences. However, the tyrant still harbors fighting spirit; in his eyes, it seems his side has not been completely defeated.

"My lord, do you still think you have the victory in your grasp? To be frank, we must seek peace as soon as possible, or it will be too late."

Therefore, the tyrant was extremely reluctant to take such action. First, he believed that three days of rest should be enough to replenish supplies, and he even continued to patrol the camp during this period, hoping to understand the soldiers' thoughts, only to find that the officers and soldiers were all dejected.

Moreover, one of the three generals is now bedridden.

This situation is quite embarrassing.

The key issue is that, although supplies are currently sufficient, the daily horrific casualties on the battlefield are unbearable for anyone, and many even feel that perhaps this is just a matter of delaying their deaths by a few days.

Even more shocking is that deserters have begun to appear on the battlefield.

The reason is simple: people don't want to die so unjustly, especially those who already have families and yearn for glory, but that's not the case.

In desperation, even if the tyrant were to give a speech at this point, he would not gain any approval; it could be said that he was truly on the verge of utter defeat.

However, the old village chief does not plan to show himself immediately, because it is not yet a critical point where both sides are severely injured, and he did not expect that this tyrant would be so vulnerable.

Therefore, the old village chief had to adjust his strategy. If he were to directly deploy his million-strong army to face the current human forces, he might not achieve much, because Jiang Chuan's army was still an exceptionally powerful force.

"Are we just supposed to sit here and wait to die for the rest of our lives?"

At this moment, the old village chief also began to ponder this problem, and his own million-strong army might actually cause the entire system to cease functioning.

Therefore, everyone was very worried. On the other hand, the old emperor actually knew that the old village chief commanded a million-strong army.

"It's quite ridiculous that we're discussing this here. The reason is simple: the old village chief's own army is right there. What do you suggest we do? If we humans directly put me in power, and the old village chief gets angry and leads his million-strong army to overthrow me, that would be troublesome."

Xu Fei was surprised to find so many unresolved issues remaining after the war, and only then did he realize that something was amiss. (End of Chapter)
