Chapter 6: Observe the world and determine good strategies

The words were sonorous and powerful, showing the power of the emperor. Even though it was just what the phantom said, the majesty still shocked, so when Xiang Wuzun's illusion disappeared, the six generals were still a little stunned and never came back to their senses.

This is not only because of the shock of the emperor's power, but a large part of the reason is that it is unprecedented for an outsider to serve as the King of the Palace. In fact, even if you are a King of the Palace, it is extremely rare in history. However, there is indeed such a rule in the underworld's laws and regulations. As long as the King of Hell personally agrees, you can serve as the King of Hell and temporarily manage affairs.

However, since Xiang Wuzun made this decision, of course, he was also a thought after careful consideration. To gain a foothold in the imperial city, he must have the support of the six generals with military power. This is the primary condition. If one of the six generals is allowed to serve as a substitute, it is estimated that the other five generals will be dissatisfied. If civil officials and officials other than the six generals come to this position, the six generals will probably be greatly dissatisfied.

It is unimaginable to let an outsider sit in this position, but because everything Fang Ling did in the hell of cause and effect has kindness to the six generals of the imperial city. Moreover, although he temporarily took over this position, everyone knows in their hearts that an outsider cannot truly inherit the position of the King of the Eighth Halls, so there is no conflict of interest for anyone, but only a temporary generation. If anyone else takes over this position, even if it is temporarily generation, he will definitely develop his own power carefully to ensure that he can truly inherit this position in the future.

There was no conflict of interest, and there was also a kindness. The six generals looked at each other, bowed their bodies, half kneeled on the ground, and bowed their heads and said, "The last general will pay homage to the King of Dai Palace!"

"All the generals are up. I'm just managing the eighth hall kings during the absence of the eighth hall kings. You don't have to perform such a great ritual." Fang Ling walked over quickly and kindly helped the six people up one by one. He knew very well the importance and status of the six generals in the imperial city. If he was really the eighth hall kings, he could naturally receive such great rituals safely, but he was just a responsibilities and was assisted by the six people. Then there was no need to lift himself too high. If he lost the trust of the six people and caused them to be dissatisfied, he would fall down and hurt.

Sure enough, the six people saw Fang Ling so friendly and not pretending to be arrogant, and their favorability increased greatly.

Fang Ling smiled slightly and asked, "Six generals, since I have served as the King of the Palace, I will have to solve my problems for the King of the Eight Palaces. What should I do? Please ask the six generals to give me some advice."

This was very low-key, which made the six people very satisfied. After all, as the six generals in the imperial city, they were of high power and were respected there. Fang Ling was so humble and polite that naturally made the six people more satisfied.

However, since the six generals of the Imperial City have taken the position of general, they are of course very well aware of the art of advancement and retreat. General Zhang bowed and said, "As the generals, we, although we hold military power and manage military affairs, we dare not overstep our affairs and manage the affairs of the Hall King. What's more, since the Eighth Hall King chose the Hall King, we must have given instructions."

Several other generals nodded and said in unison: "The King of Dai Palace in the battle of the Hell of Cause and Effect, showed his genius skills, which impressed us and caused the southern Ghost Emperor to suffer a great loss. If the King of Dai Palace is in charge of the imperial city, the slutty must not be moved."

Fang Ling smiled slightly and thought to himself that these people really knew how to advance and retreat. In fact, he also saw through the fact that the six people were not domineering people. As Xiang Wuzun said, although they were of high status and powerful, they were loyal. He naturally thought about what he was about to do, so he said loudly: "The most important thing in the southern underworld at present is to prevent the army in the southern ghost realm, prevent the southern ghost emperor from suddenly rising up and disturbing the people."

The six generals nodded again, and General Zhang replied: "The King of Dai Palace is very saying. The King of Eight Palaces has also attached great importance to the court reports in the border areas recently. From time to time, we will be summoned to inquire about border affairs."

General Cao, with white hair, said: "It's just that the southern ghost realm is calm now. I don't know what the Southern Ghost Emperor is doing. But the border of the southern ghost realm is extremely strict. I always send people to spy on it, even if there is infiltration, I will return in vain."

General Zhong, who had a straight face, said solemnly: "The Southern Ghost Emperor is changeable and cruel and violent. We also feel the terror of this person in the battle with him in the hell of cause and effect. Now the other ghost emperors in all directions are moving, but he still does not move, so he will definitely have a plan."

The generals expressed their opinions, all of whom believed that the Southern Ghost Emperor was waiting for an opportunity to move, but it was not clear when he would make any move.

Fang Ling listened quietly, without interrupting. When the six people stopped, he asked: "The five ghost emperors are from the southeast, west, north, and middle respectively. The areas in which the first four are located are easy to understand, but I have always been confused about where the central ghost emperor is managed."

General Zhang explained: "The territory of our underworld is vast and lingering, with many dangerous and evil realms. In the southwest of the underworld, there is a dangerous land as vast as a country's land. There is a dense and dense place. It has been a place where ghosts live since ancient times. Later, it was occupied by a ghost emperor, which is the central ghost realm. With the natural barrier, this central ghost realm has become an evil tumor on the land of our underworld. The kings of hares have been determined to recover this place, but the central ghost realm occupy all the terrain and many ghost troops. In addition, the five ghost emperors in the direction of the five directions are in harmony, once they attack the central ghost realm, it will inevitably cause abnormal movements from other ghost emperors."

Fang Ling came over and pondered: "So, the Central Ghost Domain is close to the south. Didn't the ghost army in the Central Ghost Domain march towards our southern land?"

General Zhang nodded and said, "In fact, the exit and entrance of the Central Ghost Domain are facing the north, and the south of me is blocked by a dangerous barrier. Unless the Central Ghost Emperor sends an army around the periphery of the Central Ghost Domain, they will only deal with the west of our underworld, and will not head to the south."

Fang Ling asked again: "How is the defense line in our southern region currently laid out?"

General Cao replied: "There are more than 200 underworlds in the southern territory under the jurisdiction of the Eight Palace Kings, among which there are more than 20 underworlds that directly contact the border areas, all under the jurisdiction of the Southern Prefecture. Each underworld is stationed and dispatched by the Ministry of State to take control of and monitor every move on the buffer line."

Fang Ling touched his chin and said, "What you need to win a battle is a breakthrough. We will lengthen the front line like this. All the twenty underworld palaces have taken heavy troops. It seems that nothing is wrong, but it is too moderate. If the Ghost Domain Army concentrates its troops to attack an underworld underworld, it will definitely break through!"

With just one sentence, the generals looked at him with admiration. General Zhong said, "The King of Dai Palace said it well, and this is also the most worrying issue for the generals. It is just that because they don't know when and where the army of the Ghost Realm will move, they can only make this worst move. However, behind the twenty underworld palaces, six armies are arranged for support."

Fang Ling asked: "If the army in the Ghost Realm starts a war, will the six generals be confident that they can win?"

General Zhang raised his thick eyebrows and said proudly: "The Ghost Realm has a great reputation after thousands of years of development, but my southern underworld is also very powerful, and people are more capable. We are not afraid of him coming, but we are afraid that he will not come!"

General Cao also laughed and said, "Yes, if the army in the Ghost Realm dares to attack, they will definitely not have the chance to go back to the Ghost Realm!"

The six generals were full of energy and ambitions, so Fang Ling smiled slightly and said, "Since the six generals have such confidence, then let's try the intentions of the Southern Ghost Emperor."

The six generals' eyes lit up suddenly. General Zhang couldn't help asking, "I wonder what the King of Dai Palace has to offer?"

Fang Ling said with a smile: "Thinking the world in this way, the battle in the north is quite difficult and the pressure is quite high. The east and west are also attacked by the other three ghost domains, and it is also under pressure. Logically speaking, the southern ghost emperor took advantage of this and would pose the greatest threat to our underworld. He has been holding his troops back. He can't infer that there are only two reasons: one is another plot, and this plot is not only in our underworld, but also in the cultivation world!"

As soon as he said this, the six generals were immediately enlightened. General Zhang whispered lightly: "What does the Dian King mean is that this southern ghost emperor wants to invade the cultivation world like his predecessor?"

Fang Ling nodded and said, "Yes, although the cultivation world is headed by the ten immortal sects, there is a conflict of interest between the ten immortal sects, which is like a piece of loose sand, and it is not guarded against the intentions of the ghost realm. What's more, now facing the century-old event of the ten immortal sects competing for the throne, everyone's mind has long been tied to that. If the southern ghost emperor attacked the cultivation world, it would definitely be like a bamboo shoot. He could plunder a large amount of materials in a short time to increase military strength. The southern underworld was restrained by the other four ghost realms, and it was unlikely that he would take the initiative to attack the southern ghost realm for the sake of the cultivation world. Instead, he should increase troops to the other three underworlds. In this way, the southern ghost realm can invade the cultivation world unscrupulously and quickly strengthen its vitality."

All the six generals nodded, General Zhang said: "The analysis of the Palace King makes sense. If this happens, the power of the Southern Ghost Emperor will become extremely large. It is very likely that the evil paths in the cultivation world, no, and even the Eight Evils may cooperate with them, but we are restrained by the other three parties and are restricted."

Fang Ling said: "This is the scene I least want to see. However, if we know the intention of the Ghost Emperor and prevent it in advance, it can become the key to our reversal of the situation. But before that, we must prove that the second reason does not exist."

"The second reason is?" The six generals were not reckless in the position of the general in the imperial city, and they were all wise and transcendent, but now they were impressed by the young man's joking and had no arrogance on their faces.

Fang Ling said: "The second reason why the Southern Ghost Emperor has never used movement is to find a breakthrough and a breakthrough. Everyone knows that the Eight Palace King was the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty a thousand years ago. He created a grand event in the Tang Dynasty and had extraordinary talents in military combat. Even the Southern Ghost Emperor would be extremely unwise to start a war with the Eight Palace King."
