The demon world I designed.

Chapter 1162 Selfishness!

Forehead.
As soon as the Emperor of Heaven asked this question, the Four Heavenly Kings suddenly fell silent.

Even though they were clamoring loudly just now, they were all extremely reluctant to come down to the mortal world. Not to mention that there might be some risks. Even if the risks were not big, attacking Suzaku City would be a tough job. The people above were watching, so they couldn't be sneaky or cunning.

The soldiers under the Four Heavenly Kings are all their own troops. Over the years, they have only listened to themselves except for Old Long himself. According to the future plan, the Heavenly Court will definitely be abandoned temporarily. When the demons invade, if they can't hold on, the soldiers under their command will be the capital for them to venture out into the outer world in the future, and they will never be easily sacrificed.

"You still want to sit on the sidelines and watch at this time?" The Emperor of Heaven sneered: "Don't forget, if you can't take the garrisons below, no matter how many soldiers you have, do you dare to fight those demons here?"

The faces of the four outer worlds turned red when they heard this.

The Emperor looked at these four old foxes and sighed secretly in his heart, this was also the drawback of his own power, he was a civil servant and in order to win over a few military confidants, he had spent a lot of effort. Over the years, he had been nepotism and had always given resources to these four old guys. Of course, they all supported him very much, but once there was no balance from other forces, they would become self-reliant.

"Your Majesty, judging from the situation down there, they don't need our support yet." The Northern Heavenly King chuckled and said, "Chen Qing only has a few thousand Four Saint Guards. Even if he schemes hard, he can't do anything to the God General. The God General is the most famous general in our Heavenly Court. Your Majesty should not underestimate him."

"That's right!" Dongfang Zhiguo Tianwang also nodded: "The divine general's ability to lead troops is far superior to ours. Your Majesty, don't worry. He will give us a reasonable result."

The Emperor of Heaven laughed out of anger upon hearing this. Do these four old guys know that they are inferior to the Three-Eyed General?

If we count by merit, the four of you are not even worthy of carrying his shoes, so why are you on an equal footing with him? Don't you have any confidence?
Old Long could see through their little thoughts at a glance. It was actually best if the Three-Eyed General was disturbed by Chen Qing. If he could easily capture Suzaku City, his contribution would be further enhanced, and his prestige in the Heavenly Court would be even higher. The lower classes would probably be more convinced of him, and he would definitely be able to suppress them in the future.

If it is more difficult to take and the soldiers on hand suffer heavy casualties, even if Suzaku City is captured, there will be a reputation but not enough troops. In the future, as long as their status is deliberately suppressed, they will not be able to make any waves.

Seeing the four guys acting like dead pigs that are not afraid of boiling water, the Emperor of Heaven sighed and finally waved his hand and said, "You four, go to the star tower and wait. Keep an eye on the ground at all times. If support is needed, lead the troops and set off immediately. Don't delay!"

"Yes!" The four of them immediately bowed excitedly, and the many generals under their command also smiled happily, looking proud.

Many of the lower-level gods and generals sighed secretly.

It looked like the Emperor of Heaven was scolding them, but in fact it was a compromise. No, it couldn't be called a compromise, but it was intentional.

After all, the Three-Eyed General was not a direct follower of the Emperor of Heaven. No matter how great his contributions were, he was still guarded against. The Emperor of Heaven just went with the flow, as he did not want the general to have too many soldiers under his command.

When they thought of this, many low-level generals felt hopeless. Even a great hero like the Three-Eyed General could not break through that network of relationships. What hope was there for these people?
I'm afraid they won't get any benefits in the future. Once there's a crisis, they will be the ones left to die!

It seems that I have to persuade the Lord General from now on and think about myself.——
"Continue the attack?"

The general was stunned when he heard the above message from the priest.

Is Mr. Long taking such a risk this time?

For a moment, he felt irritated.

"Don't worry, my lord. The Emperor of Heaven has already asked Ziwei Xingjun to come to support you immediately. The Four Heavenly Kings are also ready at the Xingtai, ready to support you at any time."

"Be ready at any time." The three-eyed general did not show any joy when he heard this, but instead gave a bitter smile. If the Four Heavenly Kings really wanted to help him, they should at least send one directly, but they were waiting at the Star Tower. What did this mean?
They wanted to capture Suzaku City, but they had no intention of actually reinforcing themselves. Instead, they wanted to see how their own forces were consumed effectively.

After so many years, Mr. Long's nepotism has not changed.

But it's true that this was the style of the Chinese Federation back then. Personal relationships were paramount, and if the relationships were not in place, no matter how capable you were, you would still be suppressed.

Back when the Fighting Buddha was in Heaven, he was suppressed to the point that he couldn't even get a top-level divine general. If not for this, how could Old Liu have gotten this advantage?

The rise of Liu Lao's power has a lot to do with the outstanding performance of Fighting Buddha in several battles.

Now, even I am being guarded against?

He knew that even though he was now on the same level as the Four Heavenly Kings in terms of official position, in Old Man Long's heart, his status was actually far behind!
"Sir." The deputy generals under his command frowned one after another, and some of them were smart enough to understand the meaning of the above.

"Since it's an order, we can only execute it." The three-eyed general took a breath and said.

"But." Several deputy generals looked dissatisfied. This was really frustrating.

"This is not the time to be calculating gains and losses. If we fail to take Suzaku City, our future will be even more difficult. Notify your subordinates to launch a general attack in half an hour!"

The general took a deep breath and issued the military order helplessly.

If he followed his own intuition, he really didn't want to do this, then Chen Qing's sudden disappearance gave him a very uneasy feeling. Even though there were only a few thousand people, there might really be some way that could inflict serious damage to him.

Unfortunately, the people above cannot see this and would rather they be severely damaged.

In this case, let’s grant their wish.

Mr. Long, after this, I have almost repaid the favor I owe you. After this.——
"Your Excellency really calculated it correctly. They really took action!"

Somewhere in Suzaku City, Baihu's face suddenly became complicated after he saw the army under the command of the Three-Eyed General launching a general attack.

In this situation, with the military capabilities of the Three-Eyed General, he shouldn't move so reluctantly. At least he should have another large army to support him, which would be safer. The current situation is really risky!
"After so many years, Old Long hasn't changed at all!" Chen Qing shook his head and said with a smile, "Don't blame the three-eyed general. He is actually the same as you, an object of exclusion. It's just that you natives are at the bottom, while they are just a little above the bottom."

Baihu nodded slightly, she knew this. Everyone in heaven knew that the Emperor favored the Four Heavenly Kings. The Three-eyed General was extremely meritorious, but still useless. In the current situation, it was obvious that the Four Heavenly Kings wanted to watch the Three-eyed General consume his military strength so that they would have a higher say in the chaotic times to come.

I really don’t know what the Emperor of Heaven is thinking. Does he trust those four big guys so much?

If there was a three-eyed general to check and balance them, they wouldn't dare to be so rampant, right?
"But senior." Bai Hu looked at Chen Qing in confusion: "Your calculation is correct, but can these soldiers behind you cause any trouble to the God General?"

This was her biggest puzzlement. Even if Chen Qing had calculated everything correctly, the strength he had didn't seem like he could defeat the number one general in heaven.
