El Tienno's Central Capital Imperial City in August, 568, Al Tienno

Since the celebration of the ceremony, Eltinus has undergone earth-shaking changes. The people of the empire had not yet recovered from the shock of Lu You's sudden death. The wave after wave of events made everyone suspect that they were in a dream state.

After the moon sage Lu You was killed by Eltinus in the name of treason, Zhou Gongjin, the marshal of the Second Army who was supposed to be stationed in The Hague, immediately led his army into the city to control the overall situation.

Catching and killing important figures in the Shizi family, detaining the courtiers who usually snorted Yang Shi Chong, as if it were a clean sweep, Zhou Gongjin cleared away the poisonous blood that had accumulated in Zhongdu for a long time, especially when several people had always been the people. The Shi family cadre whom he hated was cut in public, and the thunderous cheers resounded in every corner of Zhongdu.

Zhou Gongjin is the commander-in-chief of the Second Army. All of his troops are in The Hague. This time he came alone and the forces used were all from the Medici family, although Xu Liegu did not disclose it. He appeared, but what his position was, it couldn't be more obvious.

‘Open the granary and distribute the rice to the citizens of Central Capital. ’

China is the capital of the empire, and there is no farmland in itself. However, the collection of materials from all sides should not cause famine. However, in the past, in order to prevent the people from having the power to make trouble, the Shi family deliberately controlled the logistics and prevented the people from making trouble. The food was sufficient and he was half-starved for a long time. Even if there was a disorder, it was easy to control. Therefore, after Zhou Gongjin gained control of the situation, he immediately filled the stomachs of the people in Zhongdu.

‘Political turmoil will definitely affect the people’s livelihood. People should not be inconvenienced. Replenish materials from other places. If it is too late, they will be expropriated from the imperial palace and the nobles’ residences. In addition, it is strictly forbidden to drive up prices. ’

Zhou Gongjin’s talents are not limited to the military. The key to price fluctuations lies in the amount of materials. Before entering the city, he had already issued orders to several nearby provinces to transport and collect the necessary civilian and biological materials, so that the impact of the turmoil must be minimized.

After Lu You's death, the disciples of Bailudong were panicked, for fear that Eltinus would eradicate the relevant forces in Bailudong after the grandmaster was eliminated. The elders even considered whether they should preemptively and remain invincible. .

Just when everyone hadn't made a decision, Zhou Gongjin personally took the white deer hole to stabilize the hearts of the people, and after a conversation, he resolved the anxiety of the elders. In the future, Eltinol will still need the strength of Bailudong. I hope that the children of Bailudong will continue to support Eltinol, and the two sides will create the future together.

‘This time I’m sorry, but my master will carry all the sins and will not be implicated in Bailu Cave. From now on, everything will remain the same as before, so the elders don’t worry about it. ’

In the past few hundred years, Zhou Gongjin was Lu You’s agent. Now that Lu You has passed away, Zhou Gongjin is the supreme authority in Bailudong. He has eliminated the worries of the elders with a single sentence. After all, if the future is still Can continue to enjoy the power of glory, who is willing to take such a big risk to avenge the landing tour?

The tree fell and scattered, and it turned out to be so realistic. However, of course not everyone can accept the new situation so comfortably. Compared with the elders who have followed Lu You for many years, many of the lower generations of disciples admire Lu You as a god. Nuo wronged and killed the patron saint of mankind. They wept bitterly and grieve from the bottom of their hearts.

I expected Zhou Gongjin's appearance to lead revenge and seek justice, but the result was contrary to expectations. These young disciples, who were deeply influenced by Confucianism, were filled with righteous indignation. When Gongjin left, they gathered to stand in front of him and clamored for riots.

If they knew that Lu You was killed by Gong Jin's whip in the end, the indignation would probably be a hundred times greater! In the end, the students were dispersed, arrested, and imprisoned. Although Gong Jin left without any indication, he secretly issued a military order to treat the students kindly.

‘Having such enthusiasm is a good thing, as long as it is not maliciously exploited. The stability of the elderly can only point out the direction. To advance history, we still have to rely on them. ’

As if muttering to herself, Gong Jin watched the riot students with downcast heads and anger and unwillingness burning in their eyes, being taken away from the front, speaking so softly.

'If there is no such behavior today to testify, the existence of Bailudong and Master will only leave a negative record in history, it is precisely because of them, Bailudong... Tieno has a future. ’

Jiang Zhong behind him was the only listener of these words. He did not think that the coach's words were deliberately said to himself. In fact, he was full of joy and did not quietly think about the meaning of these words. After waiting for many years, the coach finally left The Hague. To make a difference, this is more important than anything else.

‘Next...what else is in the reservation? ’

Leaving Bailudong, Gong Jin confirmed this to his subordinates, and when Jiang Zhong confirmed that all the previous arrangements had been processed and there was no urgent official duties for the time being, this loyal subordinate asked the coach whether he should take a break Tips.

‘Marshal, there are a lot of things after you enter the city, and there will be a lot of official affairs to deal with tomorrow, should you now...

…‘

This request was rejected, and Gong Jin turned his gaze to the imperial city below the mountain without speaking. And even though he didn't speak, Jiang Zhong could understand his feelings.

The coach is always reluctant to conflict with the Eltinus royal family, especially Cao Shou. Among the officials of El Tienor, the one who regarded this incompetent monarch as the monarch most was Lord Gong Jin. At the beginning of the battle of the imperial city, Cao Shou was locked in a million sword formations. After Gong Jin entered the city, he reversed the sword formations and liberated the people trapped inside. Cao Shou had no knowledge of personnel. He was carried back to the bedroom by the guards and rested. Calculating the time, it was almost time to wake up.

All actions, including the removal of the stone family power, were performed in the name of the pure king's side. Now that the king's side has been cleared, what will the king feel when he wakes up and discovers these changes? Maybe no one cares, but at least the coach will be troubled. If this is not the case, Master Gong Jin doesn’t need to be dormant in The Hague for many years...

‘The thing that always has to be solved, then don’t delay...’

As if making a decision, Gong Jin took Jiang Zhong away from Bailu Cave and headed to the Imperial City of Zhongdu.

As previously expected, the surrounding area of ​​the imperial city has been surrounded by heavy corps, and the army of the Medichi family is the leader, controlling every road and every point in the imperial city. The Imperial Forest Army, who was supposed to be responsible for guarding the imperial city, did not clashed with it, but under the order of the general manager Dorgon, left the imperial city and rested at the temporary station west of the city.

Gong Jin and Jiang Zhong entered the imperial city and went straight to the emperor's palace. Before coming closer, the sergeant in front of them had voluntarily let out their debut. Looking across the layers of human walls, looking straight to the end, a man in white on the stairs was sitting as if bored, and yawned to Gong Jin who was about to walk.

‘It’s so slow, Brother Second. ’

‘Have a long wait. ’

‘I’m the wounded and I really need rest. You finish things quickly. I really want to go back and rest soon. Isn’t it enough for you to be here? ’

‘Your Majesty joked. ’

With the faint words, no sense of joking can be heard, Gong Jin just emphasized the reason for the two meeting here again.

After Qingjun's side, of course, he will encounter opposition from the king. In order to completely remove the obstacles, Gong Jin's actions are very decisive.

The emperor’s bedroom, ordinary people cannot enter. Gong Jin and Xu Liewu walked side by side, but at the moment of entry, Gong Jin deliberately slowed down a step and followed behind; Xu Liewu felt helplessly stalling at this point. Spreading his hands, shaking his head, stepped in.

Not long after, Cao Shou’s swearing and throwing heavy objects faintly heard from the bedroom. Soon after, everything fell silent. When Xu Liewu opened the door again, he first told the sergeant outside, Majesty Cao Shou. I regretted the improper administration of the past few years, which caused the people to be in trouble, and prepared to commit crimes, declare abdication and live in seclusion, regardless of national affairs.

The news was not so shocking, as everyone expected. Then, in the eyes of all the sergeants eagerly anticipating, the beautiful man in white shook his dazzling blond hair and announced reluctantly. He has just been appointed by His Majesty Cao Shou, from now on, to temporarily take the throne of El Tienuo to manage the military and political affairs of the empire.

The cheers resounded through the imperial city in an instant, like a wave of joy, wave after wave, spreading outside the imperial city. When the soldiers shouted "Long live Your Majesty Hulagu" in ecstasy, the citizens of Zhongdu were taken aback for a while, then embraced and yelled, crying with excitement that they hadn't had in a long time.

According to Xu Liewu, he was only temporarily taking the state affairs of El Tienor, not taking over the throne, but the people of the empire didn’t care about this. The rumor that Xu Liewu was the illegitimate son of Cao Shou, was used as early as during the Mai Shi War. It is widely known that the two parties have never directly denied it, and the people expect that Hulagu can replace his incompetent father and rejuvenate Eltino as the emperor. Even if the military coup is also at all costs, it is now the most important thing. Ideal state.

Politicians have always been awkward and weird. They may be concerned about historical status or political factors. They always have to use some strange words to explain their unclear behavior. Anyway, at the moment when the former emperor has announced his abdication, he has royal blood. Xu Liewu had long been the most reasonable heir to the throne in the hearts of the people. But no one thought that this beautiful blond man who kept mumbling and repeating ‘I’m not the emperor, I’m just a temporary regent’ was really reluctant.

‘Trouble, this is simply an improper expectation, brother brother, make a discussion, leave it to you here, I’m going back to sleep and recuperate. ’

‘Your Majesty...’

‘Don’t like that? To put it another way...Well, Zhou Aiqing, leave everything to you, the minister of brachii, to do things cheaply. I am very tired. I will dismiss the courtesy, level myself, retreat, and disband automatically after a short rest! ’

Without waiting for the words to finish, Xu Liewu floated away with his legs, and blurted out the whole sentence. He was already ten feet away. Gong Jin had no chance to refuse, he could only look at this. An unreliable partner disappeared from the crowd.

Glanced at the darkened palace, Gong Jin looked at it silently for a while, bowed, and turned to explain to the generals who were waiting for him to give orders.

'The action was too fast. All of a sudden, the military coup was completed from the killing of the old minister. What will be the next step? ’

Reins’ staff group has such emotions. Since the end of the Japanese Raiders, too many things have happened, and everyone has been very busy. Almost all are passively coping with the situation and missed the opportunity to be the first to take the initiative.

When Cao Shou announced his abdication, the news came that Xu Liewu temporarily took the power of Eltinus, and a group of staff, led by Cang Yuecao, fell into contemplation at the report in hand.

Why did Xu Liewu, who had always only chosen to protect himself by being clear and clear, and not expressing his stance in the struggle for hegemony among the nations, suddenly changed his position and joined Zhou Gongjin?

The scheduling of Medichi’s house is so neat, Xiaocao doesn’t think this is the result of Xu Liewu’s hasty decision after the battle of the imperial city, it must be before the decisive battle, Xu Liewu has reached an agreement with Zhou Gongjin , Cao Shou was forced to abdicate after the war, headed by Xu Liewu, reorganized El Tienor.

This matter is so unreasonable, because no matter what, the two people can't join forces based solely on the friendship of the brothers. Xiaocao can't guess the reason for Xu Liewu's change of position. When looking at the overall situation, Shi Chong’s position is also very weird. If he had not arranged everything in advance, the transfer of power would not have proceeded so smoothly. His own arrest and imprisonment and the close cooperation between Dorgon and Zhou Gongjin just showed that This fact.

In other words, the core of this plan to kill Lu You and reorganize El Tienau was achieved by Zhou Gongjin, Shi Chong, and Xu Liewu.

When this conclusion came out, let alone a group of dumbfounded staff, even Xiaocao himself sighed slightly, can't figure out what's wrong with the world before him? Why did all the personnel relations get messed up when he woke up? Although there are no permanent enemies in politics, why are the forces that were once mortal enemies connected to each other privately without warning? Who is leading this consortium?

‘Judging from the results, Zhou Gongjin should be the leader of this new regime, but I can’t think of any reason why he would initiate this coalition first? Shi Chongken must have gotten a lot of benefits from being so wronged, but Zhou Gongjin had to get him to cooperate with him, but he couldn't guess this. ’

The reason for Xiaocao's confusion is that the current situation is completely unreasonable, and he cannot use ordinary thinking to examine it. Shi Chong is willing to take the risk of cooperating with Zhou Gongjin, which naturally has his advantage, but he is not only arrested in prison at the moment, his patron Cao Shou has fallen, and even his own forces have been dismantled. When Zhou Gongjin completed the reorganization of his forces, he left the prison. There is no power at all. Powerless and powerless, and being beaten back to the original point, what kind of remuneration is needed to make up for this loss?

‘Will... Zhou Gongjin broke the agreement immediately after arresting him. Their original agreement did not include the decomposition of the Shi family? ’

The aides proposed such a possibility, but Xiaocao denied it without even thinking about it.

Shi Chong's detention does not mean that he has no influence on the outside world. If the disintegration of the Shizi family was not approved by him, it would have set off a greater riot, and Dorgon and Hua Tianxie would not stand by. , Eltinus could not settle down in such a short time.

These are things judged based on reason. The aides admire Xiaocao’s judgment, but Xiaocao himself is not satisfied, because although he analyzes thoroughly, the more he thinks about it, the more useless the enemy’s behavior is. Reasonable explanation, is it possible that except for Reins, all the enemies no longer need to think rationally, just do things indiscriminately on their own pleasure? In that case, how can one predict the enemy's next move if he is based on reason?

Or...Should such irrational questions be left to be judged by people with animalistic thinking?

'Little Cao Wife...'

Lancelow, who was drinking and looking at the scenery outside the window, before Xiaocao could speak, suddenly picked up the peanuts on the table, threw them into the empty cup next to him, and buckled the cup.

‘No martial arts, no magic, can you guess how many peanuts are in it when I shoot it with one palm? A few pieces? ’

‘Hmm... I can’t guess. ’

‘That’s right, you can’t guess it, why would I guess it? If it's more than intuition, isn't your woman's sixth sense more reliable? ’

Lancelow patted the grass on the shoulder, smiling and cheering up for his wife, "I only have one instinct. Neither Shi Chong nor Zhou Gongjin are good people, and they are both harmful to us. We only need to know this. You don't have to be too unconfident. The reason for a madman to do something is that normal people can't guess that it should be. You just have to take measures not to be harmed by the madman. ’

‘It’s so easy to say...’

Xiao Cao shook his head a little bit grotesquely, but he was joyful in his heart. Her husband's suggestion resolved the doubts in his heart in a timely manner and pointed the direction.

However, this is the limit that Lancelow can do. Mind, thinking, strategy, these are not his strong points. Although he is also worried about the current situation, he can't think of anything. He can only pretend to be leisurely, so that his wife and subordinates feel at ease, and support their uneasy emotional side.

Generally speaking, Reins has plenty of leeway to cope with external changes. At the beginning of the civil war, the Baizi family was actively preparing for war resources. The Japanese raiders ended and a large number of materials and manpower were obtained, which was extremely helpful, especially the special card gifted by Li Yu, which solved the reconstruction and preparation after the civil war in one fell swoop. The huge funding problem of military affairs makes Reins' military affairs work like a huge oiled machine, operating at high speed and efficiently.

Bai Wuji fell down suddenly, slightly slowing down the speed of the gears, and the Beimen Tianguan fell to deal with the Shijia army’s problems, causing Reins to deviate slightly from his original plan, but in general, as long as he could Maintaining this speed for a few more months, Reings will be able to meet the enemy in a perfect state.

‘If you want to procrastinate, it won’t be harmful to us; if you want to fight quickly, we also have corresponding methods, so just adapt to the situation. "Xiao Caodao: "Moreover, there are certain things that must be discussed with others before decisions can be made.'

‘Women are so troublesome, wouldn’t it be good to make a decisive decision? Who else do you have to ask? ’

‘Well...how about our current highest military commander in the West? Calculating the distance, they are about to reach the North Gate Tianguan, you should be very interested in the news over there, husband! ’

Appearing embarrassed by the question, Lancelow tilted his head slightly and looked at the blue sky outside the window.

On the other side of the same sky, there are people who are disturbing the future. Lancelow and Xiaocao's focus is on the changes in the next few months, but the people on the front line can only swing with the changes in the next few days.

‘It’s troublesome, right? Miss Nier, now we have no excuse for war. Even at the North Gate Tianguan, we can only be on the defensive. Your assault plan will not work. ’

‘Nonsense, what can’t be moved? The military power is in our hands, and the Shi family army, who is not in the way in front of us, is blocking the way. As long as one order, we will immediately rush into El Tienno. ’

After a few days of marching, the Reins Army arrived at Beimen Tianguan. Before sitting on the hot butt, Nier acted as eagerly as if she first arrived at Beimen Tianguan, hoping to have further military action. In her opinion, the chaos of Eltinus is undoubtedly a godsend opportunity. Her impatient personality is more impatient and boring reconstruction work, hoping to defend offense.

‘The war between the two countries is not a simple robbery by bandits. You can’t go where you want to eat. If there is no war order on Jixia, we can’t mess around. Taking offense as defense is also a tactic, but in that case, you have to do it to the extent that Mr. Bai Qi does. After entering Eltinus, burn, kill and loot, leaving no grass or a piece of grass wherever you go. A grain of rice, a life, and then quickly returned to Reings, so that even if Eltinore wanted to fight, he couldn't support it with supplies. He could only mobilize the elite combat power like the Golden Dragon Knights, and could not mobilize the army. ’

Just from Nier's face that quickly turned dark, Gengoro knew she couldn't do it. In many cases, the method is simple, but not everyone has such an absolute determination in vain.

'If only two masters are fighting a battle of heaven and position, the only thing to pay attention to is each other, but there are a lot of things to pay attention to in the dispute between the two countries. Miss Nier always hopes to hang down the crime of civil crime. The war overthrew the old regime and brought new life to the people, right? ’

Unusual bandit, Nier, born in the forty thieves, has always been a righteous bandit supported by the local people during her time as a bandit. It's chilling to think about that kind of thing.

'The people of El Tienor are, after all, El Tienno’s people. Now they are expected to have ZTE in their country, and they don’t need us to save them. If they bring troops into China at this time, they will receive a lot of resistance, which is not appropriate. . Of course, if you have solved your psychological problems and used the identity of a pure aggressor to enter, then it is simple, as long as you tell your majesty, we can send troops here at any time. ’

Looking at Nier tilting her head to the left and right, and thinking about it, she couldn't think of an answer. Gengoro found it very interesting. Compared to whether he should send troops now, he is actually more concerned about the movements of the other side, because even if he does not invade Eltinol, Zhou Gongjin will immediately launch an attack.

‘Why? Their coup has just ended, shouldn't they rest for a while? ’

‘Retreat and rejuvenate... Oh, if you don’t fight a battle first, Zhou Gongjin will not be able to build Eltinol with peace of mind. ’

Yuangoro explained to Nier that although Gongjin is currently cooperating with Shijia, this kind of cooperative relationship does not have a basis for mutual trust between the two parties. The genius masters headed by Dorgon are also a group of people who will explode at any time. Gong Jin will not keep all these dangerous factors by his side for the time bomb.

'...So, the most ideal way is to send these dangerous elements to fight and fight to the death with the **** of Reings. If they die together, it would be even more ideal. Grand Marshal Gong Jin can easily rebuild Al. Tieno.

‘

As Gengoro said, he suddenly frowned and said: "But Dorgon is not too stupid. For such an obvious drive of tigers and wolves, they should in turn ask each other to go with them, or let Zhou Gongjin go out alone... '

However, in this way, cooperation with no basis of trust will be faced immediately, right? In order to avoid this break, both parties will give in, just don't know how harsh they can endure...Perhaps, from the boundaries of the two parties' tolerance, the strength of this partnership can be inferred.

With the same confusion as Xiaocao, Gengoro is also puzzled by the reasons for the cooperation between the two sides. The only certainty is that the two groups of Eltinus will not make themselves too much better...

‘That’s right, the one who was asking for money just delivered it again, didn’t you look for him? Nier thinks it's weird, Gengoro will take the initiative to find Hante, there must be some trick.

'Oh, then please invite him over. I have a plan. I need two talented masters to implement it safely, but in order to ensure safety, three people are more appropriate. Now that he is here, I want to ask him to help. , Anyway... now our majesty has money. ’

Of the three people who constitute the core command of Reins’s border defense force, two of them are busy preparing for the future. As a result, the practical work at Beimen Tianguan fell into the other one who was not qualified to participate in the decision-making meeting. On the snowman.

Since the Shijia army has already withdrawn, the Reins Army, which arrived at Tianguan North Gate, does not need to fight, except for the part to be guarded, mainly to assist the local refugees in the aftermath. After the arrival of the Reins Army, medicine, food, and clothing, which were extremely scarce by the refugees, were adequately supplied.

‘Hey, aren’t you soldiers? Is it okay to make these things? ’

'Enlightenment from the Prime Minister Zuo, although we are soldiers, when the previous Her Majesty the Queen was in power, the main job of the Reins Army was to be dispatched to various places for disaster relief, so we are very skilled in disaster relief. of. ’

‘Oh? Then why do the guys over there seem to be clumsy? Did they fail to rescue disasters before? ’

‘In response to the prime minister, those chiefs are all... from the island, they are not familiar with disaster relief work, and have just voluntarily changed their assignment to bury the dead body. ’

'Huh? That's it... Then, tell them to stay away from me, and... among those people, take the green shirt over there to receive occupational disease treatment. He just forgot to look at it before he stabbed the bayonet down. See if the refugee is still angry. ’

‘Uh...it should be gone now. ’

‘I can see it. ’

Speaking implicitly, but it has been said that these five-color flag soldiers from West Corca Island are not good at rescue work. The harsh environment on Alcatraz Island is not eligible for post-incident rescue unless they die on the spot during the war. As a matter of fact, these soldiers with outstanding combat exploits on Alcatraz Island, their usual medical work is only to end the pain of their comrades.

‘It’s really a perverted army. This kind of army asked me to bring it. Isn’t it for me to look good? ’

You Xue complained and walked to her temporary camp. As Prime Minister Zuo, he has his own office camp, and in that camp at the moment, there is a troublesome thing Nier and Gengoro forced to push him.

‘Tell the Prime Minister, the refugee representative is waiting for an interview in your camp. ’

The official speaking was a little uneasy. I heard that the refugee representative was commissioned by the Brothel Alliance. Just now, I glanced at it from a distance and was almost intoxicated. He was really a rare beauty in the world. The Prime Minister Zuo is notoriously greedy for money and lust, don't do things that are insulting to the national body, laugh and be generous!

What he was worried about did not happen, because Prime Minister Zuo asked, "Is the person in it beautiful?" After getting the affirmative answer, the expression on his face was almost as ugly as death, hovering far away. Outside the camp, there seemed to be a terrifying viper inside, and he didn't want to take a step closer.

‘My Lord Prime Minister, please come in. There is nothing you need to worry about here. ’

‘It’s strange... you are the boss’s woman. This is the most terrible thing. If I have anything to you, he will immediately divide me into five parts. ’

Speaking like this, Yuxue walked into the camp with a bit of anxiety, and approached the man from the first meeting, which made him frightened and rushed to half of the horrible beauty in Siam City.

The meeting between Xue and Fenghua, nothing special happened. If you insist on saying that there was, Fenghua was originally extremely afraid of life, and seemed to have no fear of the Xuetes and spoke to him naturally.

On the other hand, Youxue does not want to talk too much with Fenghua, so that some people with bad intentions will shirk responsibility at that time: "I don't know why my sister-in-law refused to come to Reings. You Xue He is the only person who has spoken to her. If you have something to ask him, maybe it’s because he said something that shouldn’t be said, so the sister-in-law ran away. “If this happens, you’ll be wronged to the ground. .

For this reason, he didn't even dare to look at his graceful appearance. Although she took off her Chinese clothes, put on a coarse cloth plainclothes, and twisted her long hair into a long braid, it seemed quite concealing her original beauty, but Yuxue's ability to escape to such an extent made Fenghua a little bit dumbfounded. .

‘The Beimen Tianguan Pass will soon be involved in the war. I hope that before then, the refugees in this area can be evacuated first and not involved in bloodshed. ’

Fenghua made such a request. Youxue had no reason to refuse. She quickly agreed, saying that she would arrange the matter and promised to provide the necessary materials. When the conversation was almost over, he had nothing to say and asked casually. One sentence: "It’s inconvenient to keep your hair so long, right? Instead of putting it into such a long braid, why not just cut it to save trouble?'

‘Once upon a time, a man said that he likes my hair very much and he likes to comb my hair, so he wants me to take good care of this long hair. I love this man and hope to maintain the look he likes, so I will not cut my long hair. ’

Fenghua finished speaking lightly, smiled shyly, and said, "Tell the man this sentence! Don't worry about me, do what he should do now, the life and death of people in this land Fu, it depends on his thoughts.'

This sentence made You Xue almost cheered. Although there are still some difficulties in the meaning of the words, it is Lancelow’s brain that has nothing to do with him. He only needs to use this love word to make a business. . No matter what others think, as far as I am concerned, I try to avoid contact with this woman as much as possible.

Although she can't see her eyes, Fenghua can still feel the strangeness of Xue's attitude from the abnormal atmosphere. After thinking for a moment, she smiled slightly and asked the Snowman a question.

Officials who have been worried that Prime Minister Zuo might do something inappropriate, peeped from a long distance to the movement of the camp, but saw the beauty representative leaving the camp, and the prime minister staying in the camp, walking back and forth as if at a loss. step.

The situation...very weird.

‘You said, the woman asked you, has there been a better girl recently? So as honest as a married man? ’

‘Yes, why would she know? Besides, I am not married either...’

‘Hey, I’m still sitting next to you, so you turned your face and didn’t recognize people. Isn’t this cruel? Have a snow husband? ’

Since the contact in the forest, Youxue has kept meeting with Hao Kelian. At first, it was only Hao Kelian who unilaterally conveyed information, and made a request, only to contact Yuxue alone, if Yuangolang or Nier appeared, she would leave immediately.

In order to be able to maintain this intelligence line, Gengoro and Nier abide by the agreement without interruption. After one or two contacts, You Xue asked boldly.

‘Anyway...you have nothing else to do. It’s hard to follow us every day and hide in the jungle, right? Shall we have lunch together tomorrow at noon? ’

‘Heh, are you fishing for me? OK, if you can get a roast chicken, let's have lunch together! ’

In this way, from tomorrow to every day, two men and women belonging to different camps used the short time of noon to have a strange meal.

The Shi family is developing the Primordial Magic Way weapon and seems to be planning to do something. This message was communicated to You Xue by Hao Kelian earlier. After sending this information back to Jixia, in addition to strengthening the precautionary measures, the Taiyan Institute also began to predict, which Swire magic weapons that the Shi family would develop for the battlefield? Take precautions against every possibility.

‘Hey, our master Wuji was assassinated, do you know who did it? ’

Youxue once asked Hao Kelian this way. Although Bai Wuji had many enemies, judging from all the signs at the time, anyone would point his finger at Eltinus.

‘I don’t know, at least our department hasn’t heard anything. Hao Kerian said: "However, El Tienno itself also has many factions. Maybe the Shi family sent people to assassinate them, or the Medici family did it. I'm not sure about these."

Hao Kelian can only guarantee that this was not done by Zhou Gongjin and Bailudong forces, but she didn't even know about anything beyond this. And the changes that have taken place in it came, and she was quite surprised.

‘How could this happen? The marshal...’

Hao Kelian's surprise seemed to have no knowledge of the Zhongdu incident, which made You Xue extremely surprised.

‘Why... don’t you know? ’

‘Well...I don’t know now, it seems strange, but... the one who was originally a subordinate has no right to ask his boss to know everything. ’

Gently pulling the hair from her forehead to the side, Hao Kelian's expression seemed a bit lonely, she seemed to feel a little sad because Gong Jin was hiding things from Zhongdu.

Looking at Xue, this feeling is not difficult to understand. She was ordered by Zhou Gongjin to come in contact with Reings and pass the information of the Shi family to Reings, so that the two tigers will face each other. Contention. However, Gong Jin secretly united with the Shi family, so what would her situation be like this way?

Spying on news, assassinations, these are all things that are not visible. Doing these things, people who live in the dark world will not only pass life and death all the time, but what is even more frightening is that they may become abandoned children in their own plans at any time and be sacrificed worthlessly. Just looking at how Feng'er was preparing to die at any time before, it is not difficult for Xue to imagine what kind of life these people are living.

Although she is one of the four iron guards and a close friend of Zhou Gongjin, she has been kept in the dark because of such a big incident in Zhongdu, so it is not difficult to imagine Hao Kelian's situation.

The positions of the two sides are enemies and not friends, but getting along, there is more or less friendship. Youxue wants to tell some jokes to make the atmosphere better, but Hao Kerian laughed first, shook her head, and cast her eyes on The distant sky.

‘Hey, there is husband Xue, why is your boss going to war with us? It's so annoying that everyone fought over and fought over. He attacked Japan this time, but he didn't get any benefits. He was still so warlike? ’

'There are many reasons to fight, of course, personal grievances and national justice are all reasons, but in the final analysis, people have learned martial arts and desperately become stronger. Isn't it because they can do whatever they want after they become stronger, burn, kill, and looting? ? He has trained so well in martial arts and became the King of Reings. If he doesn't plunder and beat you Eltinuo, what are these celestial beasts still alive? Waste of food? ’

‘You have husband Xue, I really like your reasoning, but if I continue to develop this way, my mission will be cancelled. I don’t know if I can meet like this in the future? ’

If Gong Jin didn’t tell Hao Kelian about the alliance with the Shi family, but sent her here to perform the task, then the only explanation is that this is also a kind of deception, used to confuse Reins’ eyes. , To prevent Reins from discovering Gong Jin's purpose. Then, when the facts no longer need to be hidden, Hao Kelian should be given a new task immediately, leave here, or directly become an enemy of Reins.

‘It’s best if I don’t meet each other. I can save money on roast chicken every day. I don’t know what’s wrong with your woman. I like chicken so much? ’

‘Don’t eat chicken, do you want you to carry a pig every day? Can you carry it? And, don’t you think it’s a good name for a chicken to eat chicken? ’

‘A chicken guy eats chicken? It sounds so nice, and I never saw you let me eat one or two bites. Everyone has known each other for so long, and I can't take advantage of anything. "Youxue frowned and said, "Anyway, your martial arts are so good, you can come if you want, who can stop you?"

Speaking casually, even You Xue didn't notice it, and he didn't want the feeling of disconnecting with the other party.

Contact and get along will gradually change the perception of people. At first, her impression of this woman was just cruel and insidious, and then she looked very gorgeous, but as her understanding deepened, the impression left in her memory gradually changed.

‘It’s easy to be with you, because I don’t have to mess with you in particular, and even if I fascinate you, I won’t get a copper coin. ’

Hao Kelian once said so, and in the memory of Xuexue, the beauty of this woman gradually faded.

This is not a question that a snowman should think about, but snow is still very curious. In fact, in the luncheon dinners these days, I seem to be facing a different woman, who is not so charming or charming, but a very special woman with a special taste.

What is that smell? Youxue still remember that one day, the smell was once very strong.

The weather was a bit cold that day, and Yuxue was so busy that he forgot to let the man prepare the roast chicken. At noon, he hurriedly took a raw chicken to roast.

The flames flickered, and the smell of pinewood was very fragrant, and the dripping chanterelles made people salivate. You Xue was feeling the index finger move, but suddenly he noticed that the face of Hao Kelian next to him was different.

Without a word, he stared straight at the burning fire. With the flames flying off, in his startled eyes, there seemed to be a kind of fiery heart flame that burned out reason.

Every person living in the dark world, no matter how cheerful the expression is, there must be a place in his heart, like the ice that will last forever, even in the strongest sunlight, it is still cold. Youxue could see what she was thinking of, but couldn't guess it. She just felt that Hao Kelian at this time looked very special.

‘Fire...is such a good thing, just a little bit of light can turn everything into nothing...

The favorite...the hate...all in the fire...'

I don't quite understand the meaning, Youxue suddenly remembered that Hao Kelian, like Feng'er, are both masters of martial arts using the fire system, so it is unclear whether there is any special sigh for fire because of this. Hao Kelian also quickly noticed her abnormality, and immediately came back to her senses and joked with Youxue.

However, although it was only a short while ago, the ghostly and ethereal feeling left a deep impression on You Xue.

Yu Xue patted the dust on her body, stood up without looking back, looked ahead, and yelled.

The person behind, with a smile, also responded.

‘What’s the matter, husband Xuete? ’

‘Even if my boss fights with your boss, or everyone becomes an enemy again, let’s... still find a chance to meet and chat. I can treat you to my ancestral roast chicken dish! ’

‘What, the two of us are enemies in the first place, how can anything become an enemy again? If you don’t figure this out, you will suffer a lot from my hands in the future, but...well, okay! ’

It's a very strange situation, but in two diametrically opposed camps, it seems that there are two people like this, who buck the trend and build a bridge of friendship. In the atmosphere of war clouds, this may be a thing that makes people smile.

However, such a peaceful atmosphere cannot last. On that day, Yuxue, who returned to the camp, was given a mandatory task...

When Reins began to send away refugees in the Tianguan area of ​​the North Gate gradually, in preparation for the future war, Eltinore was also busy dispatching troops and gathering soldiers from all over.

Being busy with the political affairs of Zhongdu itself, Gong Jin regards feeding the people of the empire as the first priority, and there are many other political affairs. Eltinus's political affairs have been delayed for many years, and many things that should have been handled are delayed and suppressed. Without treatment, Gong Jin now wants to clear these stagnant areas in the shortest possible time, clear the blood, and complete the regeneration of the empire.

In order to achieve this ideal, since entering Zhongdu, Gong Jin has almost been in a state of sleeplessness, staying in the newly established Prime Minister's Mansion all day, sending out orders after orders. No matter day or night, you can see Marshal Zhou burying his head in the archives, and the servants in the prime minister's mansion are even surprised to find that he never seems to have seen the marshal close his eyes and rest.

Patients who are chronically ill can't bear sudden major operations. Gong Jin also understands this, so no matter the personnel scheduling or reforms, he dare not act too freely. However, he also knows that he doesn't have much time. .

The relationship with Reins is bad, and the cooperative relationship with the Shi family will break at any time. Even Xu Liewu, who is currently on the same front with him, cannot grasp his true intentions. Looking forward to the future, the future of the empire Internal and external troubles continue, and if I want to bring Eltinol to the light, I can only take advantage of the short period of time when the forces of these parties maintain a balance.

For this reason, Gong Jin can only try his best to race against time. It is because of his exquisite internal skills. After entering the capital, he rarely sleeps and rests, but in just a few days, he loses a lot of weight. Although it is not a good time to start a war, he still wants to start using troops in order to make the agreement.

‘To reorganize the Shi family’s troops outside of Central Capital, move towards the North Gate Tianguan, and move fast. ’

For the disposal of the Shijia troops, Gong Jin is heading in two directions in principle. Those who have relatively no bad record on record, or were forced into the army at the beginning, transferred to other army groups or let them voluntarily retire back to their hometowns; as for the higher-ranking officers, they were reorganized and turned into a strategy. Reins' special forces.

‘These people have been deeply polluted by the Shi family. Even if they stay in El Tienor, they will only become a factor of instability in law and order in the future. Sending them to the battlefield, their bloodthirsty personality is conducive to combat, and even if the entire army is annihilated, there is no loss to us. ’

If Shi Chong passed on to the cadres of the aristocratic family, if he practiced for a long time, his personality would gradually become cruel and violent, and he would eventually become unable to extricate himself. Shi Chong used this to control the cadres in the family, and if he stopped training and cooperated with long-term treatment, he could be cured. However, Gong Jin did not have such leeway. At the same time, he did not want these unstable factors that would explode at any time. , Became the terma crisis of Eltinus.

‘Marshal Zhou is quite insightful, but who are we who you call us? Don't you think this is very debatable? ’

Shi Chong was imprisoned. Although Dorgon had a high level of martial arts, he did not have the talents of military and political management. It was Hua Tian Xie who was responsible for integrating the Shi family's forces and coordinating with Gong Jin. The help of the demonized physique was not long before the battle of the imperial city, and his severe injuries healed completely, much faster than Dorgon.

‘Shi Junhou is currently busy eating prison rice. Although I heard that the food tastes good, I hope the partners can do their best to be honest. At present, since the two sides are cooperating happily, don't secretly engage in any small actions, at least...don't make any secret alliances with a third party, or even secretly leak information about allies. ’

‘How about this sentence, written on the wall of the prison, as the motto for Shi Chong? ’

Hua Tianxie and Gong Jin do not have a good relationship with each other, nor are they satisfied with each other's style, but neither party tries to hide this. Their cooperative relationship is not based on friendship and affection. For now, honesty is the best law to maintain this balance.

'The Shi family’s army, I will unite. To save time, Teacher Dorgon and I will take the team today and absorb the Shi family’s military strength along the way. By the time we arrive at Beimen Tianguan, it should be almost done. . ’

Hua Tianxie smiled and said: "However, when the war officially begins, it is better to change to a commander, after all...

...My record at Beimen Tianguan is bad! ‘

Gong Jin didn't answer, but looked at the man in front of him coldly, wanting to see how much he had changed after the war in the imperial city.

The blow before Amakusa Shiro's death cannot be wasted in vain. He must have done something to spread the power? Or what else does it do? Amakusa Shiro's Zhaitian position cultivation base is a force that can drastically affect the current situation. If Hua Tianxie inherits anything from him, this matter should not be underestimated.

But at least for now, I don’t see any changes. Except for his injuries healed very quickly, no matter what his eyes, strength, manners, including his temperament, he could not see any change from before. But it is undeniable that compared with two years ago, Hua Tianxie is now a world away from that time.

‘I got it. Combat preparations are implemented as planned. After arriving at Beimen Tianguan, you don’t have to provoke the Reins Army in a hurry. The basic goal is to confront the enemy. After that, there will be a second step of reinforcements towards Beimen Tianguan. ’

Gong Jin spread out the military map on the table, pointing to the places along the way, how to absorb local military power, and what proportions should be, while explaining the strategy of the work.

‘I heard that absorbing human life and grievances can promote personal cultivation? To be clear, I don't mind if you do it again at Beimen Tianguan, anyway these people...have no loss to me. ’

‘Oh, it’s boring to do the same thing twice, but...it’s an honor for me to have such a frank partner. "Huatianxie said: "Then, the final battle location is...'

'At the moment, you just have to lure Reins' gaze first, and guide them in this direction. Although this is a repetition, it makes them more difficult to detect. After that, the final battle Location...'

Gong Jin moved his finger to a place on the map, and after stopping, he repeated several points.

‘It’s here! ’

Hua Tianxie and Dorgon led their troops out of the city on the same day. Since this matter was not deliberately hidden, they immediately spread to all parts of the Wind Continent, including the northern gate Tianguan on the front line.

‘Troublesome, although it’s impossible to keep this kind of thing secret, it’s hard to make things so obvious, like fanfare, that it’s hard not to doubt it! ’

Gengoro, who received the news, began to study and judge, but it was another person who was directly affected.

‘It’s really unlucky. I just said that there might be a war, and I really started fighting. When the Shi family’s army arrives, it’s not easy for you to sneak out with husband Xue. ’

It was different from the usual atmosphere. You Xue was quite silent and didn't say anything. From this reaction, Hao Kelian knew what to say.

‘Snowman husband, do you know what the most cunning creature in the world is? ’

‘Hmm...Is it a human? ’

‘It’s only half right, the correct answer...it’s a man. ’

Hao Kelian embraced her calf with her hands and said as if jokingly, ‘before someone told me before dying that every man in this world would lie to others, especially the better he was, the more he would lie to women. ’

‘Well, I seem to have heard the exact opposite somewhere...’

‘So women don’t have to be polite, just cheat them back boldly, because...even if you don’t get cheated, they must be separated in the end. No matter how good the relationship is, lovers, relatives, friends, husbands...In the end, every man will leave the woman because of their reasons, and it will always be a woman who is abandoned and crying. ’

Without warning, Hao Kelian said something that was not in line with her style of life, as if she was expressing her life style, she was stunned, and said: "Wh...Where is this kind of thing? It's all bad women cheating. How good is the man? You, a super black widow who dumped more than a hundred men, have no chance of being abandoned by a man? If you want to lie, you can say something like this...

...Such words...‘

'You think I'm lying to you...' Hao Kelian smiled slightly and asked, "What about you? Does the husband of the Snowman remain honest with his wife? When a disaster is approaching, will you leave the other half behind? Did they fly separately?'

‘I...’

I was pressed back by a finger when I was about to say something.

‘Don’t talk, among the men I know, you are the only one who has not deceived me. Don’t break this record easily, thank you. ’

It should be quite appropriate to use such words as a farewell word. Hao Kelian turned her wrist to seal the Xuete's acupuncture point, and followed the voice to raise her breath.

‘Little boy from Japan, you are very capable, and I still can’t notice where you are now? If you want to do it, don't delay, or I will treat it as okay, everyone say goodbye! ’

Without noticing the enemy's position, Hao Kelian didn't dare to act rashly, lest he suffer a surprise attack, and would be more unable to escape after being seriously injured. It is better to wait for the enemy to show up or make a move first, and instead have the opportunity to take advantage of it.

It was Nier who showed up first. Hao Kelian had vaguely noticed before, but she still waited for her to show up before she could confirm her position. Judging from the cultivation of Tianxin consciousness, both of them are just ordinary grades, not the excellent type.

‘Bad women! Stop, don't run for me! ’

‘I’m so sorry, I won’t do it with my little sister! ’

Having no intention of doing anything, Hao Kelian retreated and retreated, feeling a little regretful in her heart. It seems that she has been too lax in vigilance recently, like today, not even in the dark, but directly showing up in the dark. The agreed place is waiting for the Snowman to appear.

Gengoro is a powerful character. He still can't find his existence. When he finally sends out a thunderous blow, he may not be able to take it. Then, in order to be able to get out safely, what should be opened in the hole cards that are usually prepared and not used? What about one?

Nier didn't wait to get close, the Heavenly Demon Sword swung out in a series of vigor, blocking the speed of the enemy's escape. Hao Kelian is naturally not stupid enough to pick it up, but the intensive knives, like maggots attached to bones, also give her no gap.

If you get into a face-to-face duel, you will be in trouble. Hao Kelian, who hadn't intended to fight for a long time, turned around in the air twice, and flew to You Xue's side and patted him on the shoulder.

‘You have husband Xue, hello, your fierce companion is so fierce! ’

With a flick of a finger on his shoulder, he has untied his blocked acupuncture path, and Yuxue immediately moved.

‘Hey! You...’

This movement has an immediate impact. When Hao Kelian got close to Youxue, Nier was very confident in the control of her sword strength. The two Heavenly Devil's sword strengths were still slashed out. How could she know that Youxue suddenly moved, fearing accidental injury, she hurriedly used two more powerful ones. Heavenly Demon Sabre Jin, the latter came first, and shattered the previously swung Sabre Jin.

After such a delay, Hao Kelian had already jumped up and flew, threw Ni'er off, and turned to face the intercepted little Tianxing finger.

Gengoro’s Tianxin consciousness is the best in the same series. When Hao Kelian noticed, her Zhijin was already close, but this change is still in anticipation, so she must take a hard hit and get out of it as soon as possible, otherwise Jiuyao It's hard to leave if it is extremely fast and formally show power.

‘It’s not a bad idea to pick a battlefield where I can’t find hostages to threaten, but if you want to do it, who can keep such a trick that is not light or heavy? Did Brother Xiaobailian deliberately make me cheap? ’

Hao Kelian was struck in the back by Xiaotianxing’s anger, and Hao Kelian’s figure was already traumatized, but her decision won time so that she could avoid the attack after Kaikai Goro, and when she retreated, she was able to retreat. Make a mockery.

‘Don’t dare to be, I’m just afraid that the shot is too heavy, Miss Nier will smash me. ’

He didn't use the most lethal Hoshino Ambience Sword, Gengoro's little sky star finger could only lightly wound the enemy, but this did not exceed expectations.

‘Also, start laughing at the hunter, wait until you really leave...’

Seeing that Gengoro didn't catch up, Hao Kerian felt bad, and the alarm in her heart suddenly rose, and thunder was already raging in the air.

‘Sorry, beauty, besides delivering goods, you can also be a killer occasionally to maintain your face! ’

Medicchi’s purple electricity magical skill, combined with the Ming Thunder Sword, is full of lightning, thunder increases power, and Hante is looking at the enemy’s flaws, and the two swords are “brushed” and the enemy is in a hurry. , Can't stand it.

Hao Kelian seemed very surprised when she saw the enemy who suddenly appeared. She was shocked, and her movements were not as agile as usual, and her body quickly got a few more wounds.

‘Everyone is paid for doing things, so why bother so desperately? Hurry up and surrender, and you can sit down and have a drink. ’

‘Who wants to drink your things...’

(This woman...seems a little...)

I can’t say what it feels like. The next move is when Hante’s purple electric sword stabs over, Hao Kelian suddenly raises her left arm, Ren Feng’s sharp blade penetrates her left wrist, splashing with blood, and has effectively contained the thunder. sword.
