"My fellow city lords, I have made it very clear. The conditions I mentioned just now were put forward by our family head himself. No matter how many and good reasons you have, nothing you tell me is of any use.

There are only two things I can do. If you agree to join the Cheng family, I will stay and solve the problem of the White City Alliance.

If you don't agree, then we will leave Hongcheng now! Choose one of the two, this is your last chance, and I don't have that much time to spend with you.

I think the Baicheng Alliance and your Hongcheng defenders don’t have so much time to waste.” When Zhou Heng saw that Deputy City Master Meng was not willing to accept the family leader’s conditions, he said a lot of other things, and he suddenly lost patience.

.

The fact is what he said, even if Deputy City Lord Meng came up with some good ideas, he did not have the power, let alone the courage to make other decisions privately.

Therefore, if they are really unwilling to accept the family leader's conditions, then there is no need for him to continue the negotiation with them.

"This..." When the City Lords saw City Lord Zhou saying this, their faces were full of bitterness and hesitation. They really couldn't make this decision.

"Since you still can't make up your mind, I will reveal another piece of news to you!" City Lord Zhou continued.

"What news?" Everyone looked at City Lord Zhou curiously.

"Even if you don't agree to accept the conditions of the head of the Cheng family, we, the Cheng family, have to settle on this Hongcheng.

It's just that the method of obtaining it is different. Now we are discussing with you. If you agree, everything will be as we discussed before.

If you don't agree, we will wait for the White City Alliance to capture you. Then we will take your cities from the hands of the White City Alliance.

You should understand that our Cheng family definitely has this strength.

However, at that time, these cities will have nothing to do with you.

Of course, maybe by that time, you will have already become the souls under the sword of the White City Alliance army!" City Lord Zhou said calmly.

"This..." Upon hearing this, the faces of the city lords suddenly changed.

Obviously, these words of City Lord Zhou are definitely very important news to them.

If the Cheng family is really determined to win these cities, then they really have no choice.

If they agree now, at least they will still be the lords of their respective cities.

But if they don't agree, the city will eventually fall into the hands of the Cheng family.

With such a comparison, everyone must know how to choose.

Because other than that, they have no other choice.

However, in this case, they would be tantamount to betraying the dynasty, and the dynasty would probably not let them go easily.

"City Lord Zhou, if we really agree to your promise, will the dynasty really not make things difficult for us?

What if the dynasty wants to make things difficult for us?" Lord Guang said in fear.

He didn't want to lose Guangcheng. Compared with the two conditions proposed by City Lord Zhou, he would definitely choose to join the Cheng family.

However, if the Cheng family could really guarantee their safety, then he would not have any hesitation.

"I believe our family leader, since he said so, then I also believe that the dynasty will not interfere in this matter!

However, you can choose not to believe it, anyway, the choice is in your hands.

I have made it very clear what I need to say, and now is the time for you to make your own choice. But you have to hurry up, because I have almost finished the tea in my hand!" City Lord Zhou said.

"City Lord Zhou, they don't agree. If I agree to you, can your Cheng family guarantee the safety of Guangcheng?" City Lord Guang said impatiently.

He didn't want to die, nor did he want to miss this opportunity.

After all, the attitude of the Cheng family is already obvious. Regardless of whether they agree or not, these cities will eventually fall into the hands of the Cheng family.

With the little strength of the White City Alliance, no matter how strong it is, it is only for weak cities like them.

In the face of such a powerful force as the Cheng family, what do they think?

Even if they capture these cities by then, if the Cheng family wants to take them, they won't be able to keep them at all.

At least now that he accepts the conditions of the Cheng family, he can continue to be the city lord happily, so why not?

Seeing what City Lord Guang said, the other City Lords also looked at City Lord Zhou with some curiosity, wondering if he would agree, because what City Lord Guang said was actually what they were thinking.

Just because Hong Cheng doesn't agree doesn't mean they don't agree.

Anyway, this city cannot be saved in their hands. Although they have joined the Cheng family, at least they are still the masters of the city.

Moreover, City Lord Zhou also said that they do not need to pay tribute twice. They can still hand over the tribute to the dynasty as before, and the remaining resources are still their own.

In addition, the Cheng family has repeatedly guaranteed that they will not be punished by the dynasty. With such conditions, they really have no reason to refuse.

"That's natural. As long as you are willing to join the Cheng family, I can guarantee the safety of your city from being invaded by the Baicheng Alliance!" City Lord Zhou said with a smile.

Although in his opinion, the most important thing is Hongcheng. After all, the entrance and exit are in Hongcheng, and Hongcheng is the top priority.

But, again, it doesn’t matter if Hong Cheng doesn’t agree, just take it directly from the Baicheng Alliance.

An army of one million is indeed a very powerful force for Hongcheng and other cities.

But to the Cheng family, it really is nothing.

Just a dozen of them rushed into the millions of troops of the Baicheng Alliance. It will not take long before the Baicheng Alliance will take the initiative to withdraw their troops!

"City Lord Zhou, as long as we can ensure the safety of our city and continue to let us take charge of the city, we are also willing to join the Cheng family!" With City Lord Zhou's affirmative reply, other cities also hurriedly spoke.

They were afraid that if they didn't say anything, the Cheng family would get up and leave.

"Of course that's perfect!" City Lord Zhou smiled even more happily.

The current situation is not too bad. Only Xian Yue City and Long City were captured by the Baicheng Alliance. Even if Hongcheng was also captured by the Baicheng Alliance, it was only a matter of three cities and could be easily solved.

"City Lord Zhou, if we agree, can you help us take Long City and Xian Yue City back from the Baicheng Alliance cities?" Seeing that other cities had spoken out, Long City Lord couldn't wait any longer.

At this moment, City Lord Xian Yue also looked at City Lord Zhou expectantly.
