Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Chapter 21: The Wind and Cloud on the Western Front (3)

Laughing leisurely, Liang Chongxin said with a long sigh of relief: "Let's go, let's go back to Shuangdui City first, I think the mountain pillars should arrive, and then we will discuss it carefully, and make sure the plan is foolproof, otherwise we won't let you down. ?”

"Well, we have to arrange for people to investigate immediately. Although we haven't noticed how many spies the Punjab people have here, we have to guard against it. The assembly of our large-scale army may attract the attention of interested people. "Linghuyi put forward his own opinion.

After nearly a year of construction, Shuangdui City is far from being comparable to the big market town last year. The location of the entire city has moved a little to the west. Fan, this made Lu Man a big profit, and also provided sufficient funds for urban construction.

Although the construction of the city wall of Shuangdui City has not yet started, according to the urban planning, the construction inside the city wall has already been in full swing. Most of the well-planned road construction and other municipal facilities have been completed, and the remaining parts are also being stepped up. However, the busiest place is not here, but the luxury houses on both sides of the streets in the city. Regarded as the only political, economic, cultural and transportation center in this area, dignitaries and wealthy businessmen of all ethnic groups have spent huge sums of money to purchase large pieces of land next to the newly built Shuangdui Chengshoufu. Whether it is doing business or living, this place has become the first choice for rich people. place.

Since this area has not formed a real central city for a hundred years, the dignitaries and rich people of all ethnic groups have to be content with the status quo, but now it is very different. The good planning of Shuangdui City has greatly stimulated these ethnic groups The enthusiasm of the upper class, the proper concentration of the population, the influx of a large number of immigrants, and the promulgated preferential industrial and commercial tax policies all provided good prospects for the development of Shuangdui City, so the vigorous construction began.

The camp of the Shuangdui Security Division is right next to the Dajiaochang. Even though there are troops from the First Division of the Northwest Army and the Shuangdui Security Division stationed there, it still looks very spacious here. Obviously at this point Shanghe Lianbo still won better conditions from Luman for his subordinates. The headquarters of the division is right in the middle of the camp, and it has now become the temporary residence of the headquarters of the first division.

It was late in the evening, and after dinner, several people had already gathered in the war room. This is a room reserved by He Lianbo alone, which is specially used for military tactics research and discussion. The sand table depicts the geographical terrain near Shuangdui Mansion vividly. This is what He Lianbo learned from Wufeng. The geographical terrain of the entire Shuangdui area and even the surrounding areas are displayed in front of everyone. Rivers, forests, hills, and swamps are all represented one by one, and even the number of garrisons stationed in each place is clearly marked with signs.

With a thick cigar in his mouth, Helianbo took a deep breath, a mist slowly sprayed out from his nostrils, and the faint and unique aroma of cigar permeated the room.

"Helian, how's the situation?" Liang Chongxin asked in a deep voice, ignoring him who was puffing up clouds and looking for pleasure.

"Boss Liang, at least let me finish this after-dinner cigarette." He Lianbo replied with a smile.

"Okay, let me ask you what's the business?" Liang Chongxin said honestly.

"Hey, I'm back. It's basically the same as what we have learned before. Most of the armed forces that the Punjab people often come out to plunder are the private armed forces of the nobles in their tribe. Of course, there are also some regular armed forces mixed in. After all, there are benefits. Who wouldn't? What's more, most of the nobles are powerful and important figures in their tribes, and it's a trivial matter to arrange some regular armed forces, and the discipline of their tribal armed organizations is not like ours." He Lianbo flicked his fingers lightly, The cigar **** drew a beautiful arc and landed in the grocery basket in the corner.

"What else?" Liang Chongxin didn't raise his head, his eyes just moved on the sand table.

"According to insider reports, there are three main Punjab armed forces that often harass the five tribes in the Green Sea Swamp, the largest of which belongs to a nobleman in the Punjab tribe who is second only to their tribal chief. They are also one of the main armed bandits who rob Indian caravans from Hyderabad tribes to Luzon. There are about 3,000 people in each dispatch. But these guys are very cunning, and every time they act, they plan We have almost never missed a move, and since we took over here, we have never made a move against a caravan from our Northern Luzon area, probably because we don’t want to give us a chance.” The information obtained by He Lianbo is as detailed as This level surprised Liang Chongxin.

Seeing Liang Chongxin's somewhat surprised eyes falling on him, He Lianbo scratched his scalp in embarrassment, "Uh, this information was not obtained by our scouts, but by the Shuangdui Mansion Intelligence Agency and the Green Sea Swamp Five. It was collected from the clan’s informants.”

Liang Chongxin then cleared his doubts and nodded.

"But these guys seem to have been unwilling to admit that the five tribes of the Green Sea Swamp belong to our jurisdiction, so although we have restrained the harassment of the five tribes after we came, they still come here from time to time, because considering the strategy We have been refraining from expressing the needs of the government, and have only made a few representations." Linghu Yi, who was on the side, also added.

"This is a good excuse. I hope that this scar can be removed in the near future." The burly man with a fierce look is of course Shan Zhu, the division commander of the Independent Infantry Division. He also led the entire division from the volcano. Kouzhen rushed to Shangdui Mansion, but in order to deceive others, the Independent Infantry Division, under the leadership of the deputy division commander, diverted from Shuangdui Mansion to the south, nominally for a long-distance training.

"Well, there's a good chance, I'm not afraid that those guys won't take the bait." He Lianbo and Linghu Yi exchanged knowing glances before saying.

"Oh?" This immediately aroused the interest of Liang Chongxin and Shanzhu.

This is an extremely luxurious mansion. On the spacious gate, there are two carvings of human-headed and winged cows to ward off evil spirits. The one-meter-high glazed wainscot presents an elegant light blue color, and various statues of gods are engraved on it, symbolizing that the owner of this house is not just an ordinary wealthy family.

In the depths of the mansion, an obese old man was completely naked, reclining comfortably on a strange carved rattan table. Two plump girls kneeled respectfully beside him, holding hands from the big basin next to him. He picked up a strange looking oil and carefully applied the oil to the fat old man's body. The old man looked very comfortable, with a happy look on his bloated face, obviously enjoying this unique oil bath.

A servant came in quietly. He wanted to say something, but he hesitated when he saw the old man's appearance. Glancing at the servant who was waiting by the side with his head bowed, he snorted unhappily, "What's the matter?"

"Master, Master Laval is waiting for you outside. He said he has something urgent to tell you." The servant bowed his head humbly.

"Hmph, what is he in a hurry for? Is he looking at a woman from another family?" The fat old man said disdainfully.

The servant did not dare to answer, but bowed and waited for the order.

After ignoring the servant standing aside for a long time, the obese old man closed his eyes and enjoyed the pleasure brought by the massage of the girl next to him. After a long time, he burst out a few words: "Let him Go and wait in the living room."

The servant quickly bowed and backed away.

An hour later, the obese old man who had tidied up his clothes appeared staggeringly at the door of the living room covered with soft and thick cashmere carpets. A tall young man who had been waiting in the hall quickly stood up and greeted him. , "Uncle, you are here."

Ignoring the young man's hospitality, the fat old man walked straight into the hall and sat down at the main seat. His fat body made him feel tired even after walking a few steps, and he had to take a few breaths.

"What's the matter?" The old man asked impatiently after taking the teacup from the maid and taking a sip casually.

"Uncle, something good is coming." The young man didn't care about the old man's cold reception, and there was a gloomy gleam in his clever eyes from time to time, which showed that this guy was not a kind person.

"Good thing?!" He glanced sideways at his only nephew ~IndoMTL.com~ The old man felt a sense of irritability in his heart. Three points of color, but there is only one successor in the Della family. No matter how much effort I spend on many women, there is still no result. Is this God's will?

"Uncle, I got the news that half a month later, those guys on the edge of the Green Sea Swamp in the east will hold a Harvest Festival celebration. I heard that they have another bumper harvest this year. All the clans have prepared rich items to celebrate and trade. Our People have not been active for a long time, and now the guys in the Hyderabad tribe are getting more and more cunning. Many of their caravans do not go here. We are not allowed to touch the North Luzon caravan, and the people below will complain." The young man spoke very strategically, expressing his thoughts calmly.

"Want to move the caravans in Northern Luzon? I think you are not living comfortably enough! You don't want to ask who Li Wufeng is? He is a wolf that eats people and doesn't spit out bones! He didn't It's enough to come to the door, and you still want to get his idea!" The old man was obviously a little annoyed, and he was very angry at his nephew's recklessness.

"Yeah, so didn't we just follow your instructions and never provoke them? But you also know that we are spending so much now, if we don't find some, life will be hard!" There was a trace of anxiety.

The old man also knows that most of what the young man said is the truth. How can he endure loneliness after living a good life, no matter how cautious he is, life will always go by. The young man's words made no sense at all.
