September 568, El Tienau Calendar, Reins Jixia

Watching the movement of El Tienor’s army, Reins is also facing a trade-off. Regardless of the number of troops, if El Tienno’s troops are really close to the northern gate of the sky, it will rely solely on Gengoro and Nier. , Can't resist the opponent's celestial power.

Reins has a lot of bargaining chips for reinforcements. Lancelow and Feng'er can set off from Jixia at any time and rush to the front line. They even recently reached an agreement with Xiaocao to become the newly established dark demon of Jixia Academy. The Dean of the Guidance Research Institute and Hua Bianque, who temporarily joined Reins' side, can all make a certain degree of scheduling.

"If you ask her to play, you will probably be rejected, but if it is based on the experimental development of the Black Magic Art, or in the name of taking materials, you can probably invite her."

Xiao Cao said: "It's a pity that Sister Quanying and Princess Xiang can't participate in the battle for a while, otherwise our manpower scheduling can be more flexible."

Xiaocao and Lancelow are not so stupid to think that Quanying has not returned overseas. The information obtained from their hands and the results of Xiaocao’s own magical detection, they know that Quanying has just entered the free city. The reason is Unknown for a time.

Lancelow was not anxiously trying to get Quan Ying back. Unless he is kidnapped, otherwise he respects his wife’s freedom of movement. On the other hand, it is now time of war. If his wife returns and cannot be on the same line with him, then it is better to maintain the status quo. Therefore, he has been summoned by Xuexue. He just smiled, and didn't try to contact Fenghua.

No matter how good intelligence investigation is, it can't be comprehensive. Lancelow didn't know the appearance of Hai Jiaxuan. If he knew it, he would definitely feel very distressed!

Oda Xiang should be on Reins’ side. With her help, the situation will be much easier than it is now, but in Fenger’s mood, unless she has no choice, she doesn’t want this child On the battlefield, in terms of reality, Oda Xiang replaced Wang Wu's existence and re-suppressed Alcatraz Island. If not necessary, Xiaocao didn't want to move it easily, causing instability in the rear in vain.

A few days ago, Oda Xiang sent a message to Jixia, hoping to get permission to let her organize private force on West Corca Island to replace the five-color flag that might one day be out of the island.

As the master of the white family, Oda Xiang’s power on Alcatraz is almost limitless. It is of course not a problem to organize private force. Lancelow and others are just surprised, why are they used to the lonely ghost in everything? Will want to train the legion. In Feng'er's view, it's a good thing that her daughter would want to act on something. In fact, since the news of Amakusa Shiro's death, Feng'er has been worried that Oda Xiang would react.

"Since Corca Island in West West is very large, it would be too tiring to patrol by just one person. When I was in Japan, I also organized a new team, so these are nothing strange."

Maybe it is troublesome to deal with, the child appeared on the mirror of the transmission mirror in the face of Soujiro, and reported with a grin.

"Well, I can understand what you think, but on Alcatraz, you are the king, and you control the power of the Bai family. Why should you ask for my consent? You can just let it go! "

Since he is a friend, Lancelow actively expressed his sincerity, saying that Oda Xiang would not need to report, and let him do it. However, this kid ignored his good intentions and said with a cold expression.

"Who is talking to your savage dead monkey? The flat ground is dangerous, so primates should climb back into the mountains."

After finishing speaking, the expression immediately replied to the previous happy smiling face, and said to Feng'er: "I am reporting with Feng'er's mother, because the child wants to organize a society, in human terms, it is going to be mixed with the underworld, so Big things, of course, I have to tell my mother!"

When a child shows herself a smiling face with a serious expression, the almost dazzling angel smile, Feng'er can't help but wonder, is this from the sincerity? Or is this kid's purely simulated reaction? However, with the lessons learned from Amakusa Shiro, Fenger chose to accept it without complaint and smiled happily.

"Gangs and gangs are sometimes nothing bad, just don't be worse than politicians..."

This speech was really incoherent, but seeing the two of them smile while looking at each other, the warm feeling made the people beside them feel happy. Of course, there are also people who can't laugh. The kindly performance, the ape who had a bad temper, naturally broke out.

"Roar! Roar~~Roar~~~"

"Huh? Huh? How did people hear the sound from nature? Is this a forest?"

The handsome little boy, with his hands on his ears, pretending to be listening attentively, seems to be very lovable, even the grass who has been by his side not making a speech smiles deeply, but tries to grasp Feng'er, who was furiously ape, smiled and endured very hard, and was relieved at once, but was dragged away by Lancelow.

When Lancelow was about to come into contact with the water mirror, the picture of the water mirror suddenly flashed. When the image appeared again, the clothes of the person in the mirror remained unchanged, but the black hair became longer, and the white face was even more beautiful than before. Many times, it appears as it is.

What's different from before is that this time, Oda Xiang's small face has something more that he hasn't seen before, something that people call an expression. Taking advantage of the fact that the picture of the water mirror was not very clear, and everyone was not really seeing it, she moved swiftly and slanted her clothes.

Without waiting for them to come back to their senses, the "wave" in the water mirror screen disappeared without a trace. At this time, the people woke up like a dream, waking up from the girl's clever prank, and realized that they had been tricked by this little fairy. Something.

Xiaocao and Feng'er looked at each other, both couldn't help but laugh, and laughed together. From the point of view of her name alone, Princess Oda Xiang is the wife of the current King Lancelot. Despite the fact that the relationship between the two is quite unfriendly, Oda Xiang knows how to take advantage of this to come to Lancelot. Just kidding.

"I know how to use this expression. This little princess's actions are much more beautiful than before. She must have got another great teacher after Shiro Amakusa!"

A word that Xiaocao jokingly said accidentally, after exiting, she woke up a part of her rationality, silently thought, and did not hear Feng'er smiling and answering "Yes, if you go to Daxue Mountain Go, my master will like this kind of apprentice very much," and didn't notice the ape that was about to burn next to him.

Lancelow is not a pedophile. For Oda Ka, who has always maintained a child’s appearance, he only regards him as a strong opponent, but has never thought about it. However, just a short glimpse, it is For such a short time, he felt shocked. Once he stabilized, and aware of this fact, his anger towards others and himself exploded twice.

The next moment, an angry and whistling roar resounded through the entire ivory white pagoda.

"Roar! Roar~~Roar~~~ Oh roar~~~~"

The voice spread far away, and even the guard at the door felt a little dizzy.

"Hey, what is that sound? It seems to be the angry sound of some kind of beast..."

"What, listen carefully. Whenever the beast asks for a puppet, it will roar like this, especially the orangutan, it will beat its chest while screaming like this."

"Oh, so... spring is here!"

"Yes, spring is here."

The two guards spoke intoxicated with poetic expressions, and continued their guard work. Having such a guard may be a blessing to Reins' cultural heritage, but now it is September, no matter which corner of the Wind Continent, spring is still far away.

Although the situation at Beimen Tianguan cannot be said to be cold in winter, there is no spring in sight. When Gong Jin led the Second Army to move eastward, Hua Tianxie's First Army also felt the pressure, as if being driven away, and marched towards the North Gate Tianguan. Compared with before, the atmosphere of war became stronger and stronger.

Compared with the Eltinus Army, the Reins Army at the North Gate Tianguan should be able to take care of it and wait for the enemy easily. However, since they knew that Eltinus had sent troops, their minds and bodies were in a state of tension. The waiting enemy troops marched and dragged. The tightness of mind and body has not been relaxed. Instead, they have become more anxious. After a long time, they have accumulated. A considerable degree of fatigue.

"An old saying goes: ‘Work in one blow, then decline, and exhaust after three.’"

Gengoro whispered the sentence in the military book. The enemy probably did not deliberately cause this effect, but for the guards on the Beimen Tianguan side, the war will not happen for a long time, but it may start a war in a few days at any time. That kind of pressure is not easy.

"There was no news from the brothel. Although Hua Tianxie and Zhou Gongjin's daily marching route and troop dispatch were clearly checked, they couldn't tell what was coming." Shui Jing said on the screen. On the other end, Xiaocao shook his head and said.

The frustration facts that the major forces on the Continent of Wind must face. Even though each force wants to cultivate its own independent intelligence agency, in the end, in the development of intelligence, they are still subject to the brothel alliance. Do not maintain a good relationship with it.

Since the rise of Lancelow as the "Forty Thieves of Alibaba", the Brothel Alliance has taken care of his side and provided important information continuously on intelligence, making Reins, who is not a military power, Can have enough capital to stand unshakable.

Reins has always maintained a friendly relationship with the brothel. In addition to their cooperation, Nier, Yuangoro, and Fenger all have personal relationships with the principals of the brothel. In terms of bilateral relations, Reins is a cooperation of the brothel alliance. Among the subjects, the one with the best mutual friendship.

But that's all there is to it. The basic stance and interests of the Brothel Alliance are based on absolute neutrality, which may be slightly biased towards one side, but in general, if there is a dominant party, this is by no means what the Brothel Alliance would like to see.

Even now, the Brothel Alliance certainly did not give Reins all the information. The Zhongdu Incident in Eltinore, the military dispatch of the Medici family, the series of orders and personal whereabouts of Gong Jin beforehand, there will inevitably be some hidden leaks, and the intelligence network of the Brothel Alliance cannot control it. Live, but they did not transmit relevant information, which is the proof that the Brothel Alliance will not place the bargaining chip in a single power.

Maintaining an absolute balance of power, wandering between the major forces, and gaining benefits by balancing the growth and decline of each other's forces, this is the reason why the Brothel Alliance can be passed down to this day. The past has not changed, nor will it be in the future. Xiaocao and Gengoro are very clear about this, so they don't have too many extravagant hopes.

The changes in Eltinol’s situation have given the writing media across the Continent of Wind the opportunity to write quickly. Experts from all walks of life analyzed the situation with their own arguments and watched the war affecting the two major powers. Among them were military analysts who believed that this battle would never be fought.

"The dispatch of Reins was actually a pretense. Before the war broke out, Zhou Gongjin would attack Huatianxie from behind, cutting off supplies and making a surprise attack. Zhou Gongjin's military talent is far above Huatianxie, using this There is a chance to eradicate political enemies and stabilize Eltinol, but even if he wins, Eltinus will be greatly injured, and he will no longer be able to use Reins. He will inevitably devote himself to recuperation. So the real battle between the two countries will be five years later."

This argument is very popular among the people. No matter where you are in the Continent of Wind, once Reins goes to war with Eltinus, the impact will affect the price of the people, which is undesirable for the common people. ...Except for the merchant groups in the free city, this group of people has always had the confidence that no matter how the situation evolves, the blood of risk and speculation in their bodies will surely be able to use the situation to seek the greatest benefit.

"I really envy it, if only we could be so leisurely."

"There is no way. We are one of the parties, not the third party. There is no way to be so leisurely."

The question is, how will the situation develop? Zhou Gongjin and Hua Tianxie went to war. This seemed to be the most reasonable evolution, but Xiaocao and Yuangoro didn’t think that Zhou Gongjin would let things go on so reasonably. However, if Zhou Gongjin and Hua Tianxie temporarily suppress each other Contradiction, joint marching into the North Gate Tianguan, this seems to be...

Neither Xiaocao nor Gengoro are idiots, but when looking to the future, both of them feel that there is a thick fog in front of them, and they can't see clearly. Before that, they had thought about it hundreds of times, but this time the Shui Jing interview, with the help of each other's wisdom, seemed to be of limited help.

"In fact, war is not like that. If Zhou Gongjin's army does not fight Huatianxie or us, will it cross the Yinhai Highway and attack my brother's martial arts?"

Lancelow on the side, seeing the sadness of his wife and brother, felt a little funny, and said something casually, but when Xiaocao heard this, Gengoro's eyes also changed from confusion to shock. .

Although it was ridiculous, Lancelow's unrequited thoughts awakened them a possibility that was missed.

"I think it should not be too late now, Mr. Amano, can you help send a message to the Brothel Alliance?"

Whether the army is well-trained can be seen from the marching state. Shi Chong's First Army and the Fifth Army before Hua Tianxie had no chance to face a large-scale war. They were negligent in training and had uneven qualities. As soon as they marched quickly, the number of people who left the team and was physically exhausted increased sharply.

Looking at the quality, equipment, and morale of the soldiers, the Second Army can be regarded as the chief force of Eltinol. Gong Jin led the army from Zhongdu. Even if he did not deliberately force the march, the speed was the same as before. Three times, without disturbing the place along the way, focusing on moving forward, invisibly formed a strong sense of oppression, forcing Huatianxie to open all night, rushing towards the north gate of Tianguan.

The two strongest forces in the territory of El Tienol seem to be playing an embarrassing game of chasing and fleeing. In the process, Gengoro tried to get in touch with the highest level of the brothel alliance through his own channels. However, for several consecutive times, he has not been able to successfully contact the friends in the Shangri-La Magic House.

An organization that manipulates the information exchange on the mainland of Quanfeng will actually have this kind of failure to communicate. This is naturally a very ridiculous thing, but Gengoro also knows that the lady still practiced in retreat occasionally. Even the short time to leave the continent of the wind to go to sea.

The Brothel Alliance is a dark organization that completely adopts secrecy. If the real big things are not authorized by the supreme mastermind, the people below will not be able to do things at all. Although Gengoro knew the supreme leader of the Brothel League, but thinking about it the other way round, no matter it was Fenger, Nier or Gengoro himself, they didn't know the second and third characters of Brothel League, or even knew who those people were.

"It's so funny, it will happen, what could be more ironic than this?"

After not knowing how many times the contact failed, Gengoro smiled bitterly at Nier like this.

Nier wondered: "You are so anxious, what do you want to say? We are the ones who broke out the war!"

Yesterday, the First Army led by Hua Tianxie had reached within a hundred miles of Tianguan North Gate, and the war was about to break out. Whether this temporary fortress built by the Baijia engineering troops rushed to build it, like the previous checkpoint, could last for a long time in successive wars, it was about to face a real test.

"Well, I actually find it funny, because no matter how you think about it, the probability of this kind of thing happening is not so low as it is ridiculous..."

Gengoro smiled bitterly: "But from the perspective of military science, as long as there is a slight possibility, we must take this possibility into consideration."

"What is possible?"

"The scale of the war...the possibility of a war with a third force."

Gengoro said lightly, still thinking about it in his heart. The bad idea that Xiaocao mentioned a few days ago is to openly inform all the people in the free city of the possibility of war when they cannot get in touch with the brothel.

Just a quarter of an hour later, when the intelligence officer ran into the camp with a pale face and presented the news that he had just received to the two highest leaders, Gengoro had to lament that he was still a step slower.

"The Second Army suddenly turned and invaded the free city!"

Gengoro's feeling of surprise was far less than 1% of Nier's. He just felt quite bitter and asked the intelligence officer to explain the details.

The intelligence officers have limited explanations. They only know that the Second Army, which should have been still in the territory of El Tienno, suddenly appeared in the territory of Free City. In just two hours, lightning captured five cities.

"How could this happen? How could the army in Eltinore suddenly go to Free City? And, what are they going to do to fight Free City?"

Nier hasn't recovered from her consternation. The war broke out between Eltinore and the Free City Alliance. This kind of thing sounded less real than the demons’ invading the world again. If it weren’t for the rationality to still maintain her thoughts, she would even want to go back to sleep again and make this absurd. Dream of waking up early.

"The whereabouts of the Second Army that we have seen are probably just the disguise of a few troops. The real large team marches southeast, from the ancient land of the ruins, crosses Fullai, Jiaquan, and enters the Silver Sea. The highway runs along the river through the northeast corner of Wulian and enters the free city. This is the only route and it will never go wrong."

Gengoro said: "Wang Wu is the most famous pacifist on the Continent of Wind. The Free City has been completely undefended against martial arts for a hundred years. How can you expect an army to kill from the martial arts side? The group army went through martial arts in a short period of time. Before Wang Wu knew it, it transferred to a free city and used its superior force to attack the weak. The victory and defeat can be determined at once."

As early as thinking that Gong Jin might use the third force, Xiaocao and Gengoro knew that if this happened, they would definitely follow this route.

Not long after, the news from the whole continent sent by Gong Jin himself proved this speculation, but the two of them didn't think there was anything to be happy about, and there was no point in Zhuge afterwards.

In the face of a good general like Gong Jin, it is not easy to figure out what he wants to do. It is not easy to predict the enemy's aircraft first. Xiaocao tried to do it and tried to stop it, but in the end it was in vain. This is again. Let her realize the irreversibility of "making things happen in people, and things happen in heaven".

"I now want to tell all the people in Free City, Reins?? Tyron is the enemy of my Eltinus, and all the forces that fund Reins will be regarded as enemies by my Eltinus. Eastern The family has been assisting Reins behind the scenes for a long time, providing manpower, weapons and funds. This is the same as the crime of a direct aggression against our country."

With text and magical images, Gong Jin spread this message throughout the free city, letting all the civilians know why he wanted to attack the free city, and what plans he had afterwards.

In the magical image floating in the air, Gong Jin sits alone on a chair, half of the metal mask is reflecting the cold light, and the sea-blue ice crystal pupils are exuding the aura of the cold, which makes people particularly shocked that he is a conquer The facts that come from.

The Eastern Aristocratic Family is currently the largest weapon dealer on the Continent of Wind. Although it has never made alliances with any other power, its owner, Eastern Xuanlong, has inextricably crossed with Lancelot, and has assisted formally or secretly many times. This is Quan Feng Zhi An open secret that the mainland knows all about.

In Gong Jin’s announcement, he clearly mentioned this point. He asked the Dongfang Family to make a guarantee within twelve hours that Dongfang Xuanlong would personally come forward to declare that he would remain absolutely neutral in the future and would no longer support Reings? ? Tielen, otherwise El Tienuo is about to level the Eastern family.

"Standing in a hostile direction and secretly funding ordnance, Reins’ crimes of destroying our country and harming our people must be punished. The Eastern Patriarch should think about the future of the family, otherwise the entire territory will be involved. The flames of war."

In this announcement, Gong Jin clearly stated his righteousness for sending troops, and the five cities he occupied were all belonging to the Eastern family.

The people of the free city, on the one hand, trembled deeply in this war full of wind; on the other hand, they also feel at ease, because Gong Jin only aims at the eastern family, in other words, belongs to the brothel alliance. Of course, the city can avoid the disaster of war.

Glorifying misfortune is one of the evil behaviors of mankind, especially in the media merchants of the free city. At this tense moment, they hiding under the umbrella of the Brothel Alliance, while selling all kinds of comments on war analysis, they mocked the neighboring city citizens caught in the flames.

Such a situation, in the eyes of ordinary people, is really very bad, but as far as businessmen are concerned, if you don't take the opportunity to make war money, why do you need to do business? They may also think that if you want to talk about conscience and morality, you shouldn't choose media work in the first place.

"Well, I'm really caught up in this kind of war analysis!"

Although he doesn't want to touch the practical problems of military and politics, as the king of a country, Lancelow still has to look at the memorials and reports that have been dealt with.

"Do you remember what an old guy who likes to analyze during the civil war said? Because of the precious cultural value of the white pagoda, the rebel army never dared to attack directly. As a result, did that guy follow Ivory White? The tower collapsed and was buried together?"

"There is such a thing."

"This kind of person is okay, at least he was martyred, and he was still responsible for his words."

Lancelow's tone sounded a bit like a complaint. The sudden changes in the situation in recent days interrupted him from martial arts practice and had to be distracted. After returning from Japan, he deeply felt that he had an unclear prospect. In order to become a favorable pillar of his own side, he began to concentrate on martial arts. Almost as long as he was awake, he would find Feng'er as his opponent and practice the magic skills repeatedly.

"That iron-faced monster is really bullying and fearing evil. If there is a kind, it will come to us directly, why do you find someone else to do it? The one who once stood on our side is guilty? Then my brother once helped me guard Alcatraz, iron Why doesn't the face lady attack the martial arts?"

The Fifth Army is almost composed of orcs and half-orcs. All of them are brave and combative. They are usually well-trained. The number of them is still higher than that of the Second Army. In addition, the king’s five soldiers have the ability to use troops. If Gong Jin wields an army to enter Wu Lian, maybe he has planted a boss to fight.

Lancelow knew this, so he complained like this, but when he thought about it, he felt annoyed again. Didn't this thought drag the brother into his least favorite war?

"Wife, did you find the old man of pervert? Everyone has killed him at his door. Don't still be drunk in the gentle village and send people to **** in a muddle."

Besides the brother, the situation of the righteous brother Dongfang Xuanlong also made Lancelot very anxious. Even with sufficient financial aid, Reins would not be able to compare with Eltinus in the country of strong forces. He could not fight at the North Gate Tianguan and divide his troops to Free City at the same time. So despite his anxiety, Lancelot can only Watch the situation in the free city.

Since Bai Wuji was assassinated and fell, the Eastern Xuanlong, who had lost his playmate, seemed to have exhausted his usual vitality and vitality and decided to leave.

Based on the friendship between the two people, Lancelow told the brother-in-law that the second brother-in-law did not die, but was seriously injured. However, due to safety issues, Dongfang Xuanlong did not go to the hospital bed to greet this year-end friend. Instead, I chose to sprinkle the wine that I bought heavily in Bai Wuji's pseudo-tomb.

"Life can carnival, what regret is death?"

These eight characters are used by revelers such as cats and dogs, who often hang their glasses on their lips when they toast. In addition to being the motto of life, they are also somewhat psychologically prepared. They have already known each other in their minds about the path they choose and which path will eventually lead to.

"One is the big drug lord on the Continent of Wind, and the other is the number one arms dealer. Kill these two **** together, and the Continent of Wind will be peaceful."

One time, when Bai Wuji and Dongfang Xuanlong were in a carnival, they passed by Lancelow outside the house, and once laughed and cursed like this. This inadvertent joke also points to the facts in some respects. For Lancelow and others, Dongfang Xuanlong and Bai Wuji are the best relatives and friends, but this does not change everything they have done. Arms dealers and drug lords, this is the position they two have given themselves, and they also have the realization that "maybe they will suddenly die on the street one day", so for Bai Wuji's sudden fall, Dongfang Xuanlong only regards this as a friend. A kind of relief.

Pour an urn of wine on the grave, and the Eastern Xuanlong laughed and walked away. Everyone thought he would return to the Eastern family, but this energetic old man, who was rejuvenated, roamed the land of the wind after he left. His whereabouts were uncertain. He hurriedly said to find someone, and Lancelot didn't know where to go. Find.

Time became more and more urgent. Gong Jin was not intimidating by empty words. Six hours after the declaration, the Second Army occupied six more large and small cities and annexed the territory of the Dongfang family in half.

In a short period of time, Gong Jin has already won a quarter of the free city territory, after deducting the time of the forced march, if it is within two hours, he will next 11 large and small cities, thoroughly implementing the blitzkrieg. The goal is really like a broken bamboo, all invincible.

"It's really scary. An army like this is worthy of being a first-class soldier in the Continent of Wind. I don't know how Zhou Gongjin was trained."

Gengoro knew that Gong Jin should stop temporarily. Of the 23 cities in the Dongfang family territory, eleven are concentrated in the western half, and twelve are scattered in the eastern half. Gong Jin is attacking in a rush. After that, you must also stop to breathe. After entering the eastern half, the cities are far apart. It takes a long time to march. The speed of the rapid attack tactics is limited, and there is no intimidating effect. Gong Jinru If you want to aim for negotiations, you should stop.

At this moment, his contact Shui Jing finally got in touch with Shangri-La.

"It's been a long time, Xiao Wu, I was so anxious to find me, what's the matter?"

Even though the water mirror is used to communicate over long distances, the lady on the opposite side still hangs on Zhulian, showing the secrecy of the Brothel Alliance. Not only the face, but even the psychology is also masked, because it is impossible for the other party to not know the intention of Gengoro's emergency contact.

"It’s really not a good deal to sign a few of your artists. I didn’t perform for a few days, and all of them ran out for me. As a result, I had to find a new person to replace the schedule. I must ask you for this penalty. Come back."

"Go to our Majesty to ask, he has nothing else but money. You should know the most about this, right?"

The huge funds from different continents were transferred to Lancelow through the Brothel Alliance, so this lady naturally knows where the money flows. Gengoro couldn't help but sigh, if Bai Wuji was still there, this money should be used more effectively!

"The incident in Zhongdu, there should be signs to be found beforehand. Why didn't you pass the slightest news? This is not interesting enough!"

"Oh, even if you don’t know it, there is no loss to you. Don’t you think it’s a blessing to learn later?"

"It's not a kid's player house wine. You can't say that. This is a military matter. Whether any information is useful or not, as long as you know it earlier, you can respond to it sooner!"

"Yes, you also know that this is a military matter, not two children at the player’s house, so why are they arguing like little urchins who want more sugar? The relationship between Brothel Alliance and Reings is just an exchange of interests. It’s not allegiance. There is no reason for you to monopolize all the information, so it is difficult for us to explain to other customers."

The atmosphere of the dialogue at the beginning is not very good. The two people just use this form to confirm each other's position again, and then the formal negotiation will be held.

"Let’s not gossip, let’s get down to business, don’t tell me you don’t know the actions of the Eltinos. They leave the Eltinos, enter the martial arts, and then enter the free city. Through the intelligence network of various countries, it is impossible to escape the investigation of the brothel."

"Heh, we are so honored to be so worthy of you. Indeed, we know it, but there is a slight flaw in the processing. The intelligence processing on the Wulian side is a step late, and the news is sent to Free City. , The El Tienuo people also arrived, too late to take any contingency measures."

Wulian and Free City belong to two different areas in the power boundaries of the Brothel Alliance. They were supposed to be in charge of Wulian and the leader of the southern part of El Tienno. After withdrawing from the Brothel Organization many years ago, this Part of it will be managed by the lady.

The lady therefore holds two-thirds of the power in the Brokers Alliance, but because it is managed, the two blocks under her control are not related to each other, and are independent of each other, and only give her the highest name. The person in charge is responsible.

Half a month ago, she went overseas to deal with problems in some organizations, especially to Reins? ? Thielen’s large sum of money really took a lot of effort until he returned to the brothel yesterday. During this period, although the personnel on the side of Wulian noticed the entry of the Second Army, the time was extremely short. After consultation, the people passed the news to Shangri-La. They were already a step slower, and because the owner of the family had not yet returned, the Shangri-La personnel even though When I got the news, I didn't dare to make too big a decision. I had to spread the news quickly overseas.

As soon as she went back and forth, the time was delayed. When the lady returned to the magic house, she could only face the situation in front of her, secretly sighing that the world was unpredictable. Even the Brothel Alliance would still have uncontrollable situations.

"So, how do you plan to deal with it? The reason why the Second Army did not move was not because of unfamiliar geography, nor was it afraid of the counterattack of the Eastern family, but afraid of the reaction of the Brothel Alliance."

Gengoro calmly pointed out the facts. On the surface, the Brothel Alliance and the Eastern Aristocratic Family are on the side of the Free City, but below the table, the Brothel Alliance’s influence is far deeper and farther than the Eastern Aristocratic Family. Besides, Gengoro didn't believe Zhou Gongjin's declaration at all.

"Zhou Gongjin is calm and wise. Once he acts, he must be the result of careful consideration. There is no reason to enter the free city before he is worried about the brothel alliance. He can be so silent, and suddenly he raises troops to cross the border and swallow Dongfang Family, of course, can instantly turn the gun head and hit you by surprise."

Gengoro said: "No, it may be wrong to say that. It is more likely that Zhou Gongjin's target is not the Eastern family from the beginning, but you."

"Ha, Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu, it's really rare to hear you say such interesting things, how come in your cognition that Zhou Gongjin, like your monkey emperor, is launching aggression against other countries for his own ambitions The action person?"

"...Unfortunately, he is not such a person."

After a long period of observation and intelligence summarization, Gengoro understands Gong Jin's personality quite a lot. This person is not a person who will actively invade outwards. Although he is not without ambition, his will is concentrated in Eltinus. He even gave up a lot of things that should have been available because he was too focused on Eltinol.

Such a person would be the first person to break the rules of the Continent of Wind in the past thousand years and take the initiative to take the initiative to capture a free city. It is incredible to think about it.

The military action against the Dongfang family can also be said to be based on the interests of El Tienno, intending to establish the coercion of the alliance under the city, but if there is also a war against the brothel alliance, what is this for? Is it really because of a series of victories that have dazzled your mind and finally turned into a pure territorial seizure?

Unable to think of a reasonable explanation, Gengoro is very distressed, but Xiaocao thinks, "The recent series of actions by Eltinus are very unreasonable. If you want to judge based on common sense, you can't think of a reason for breaking your head. As long as we know that this is possible, we can prevent and respond to it."

"But, is there any basis for this inference? For example, what interests Zhou Gongjin is based on, that's why he is concerned about the free city..."

"Actually? A woman's intuition." Xiaocao said: "Compare your heart to your heart. If my monkey enters the free city and goes down to many cities, then you have to take a step forward. The East is so far away, and the Brothel Alliance is so far. Near, do you think he can fight?"

"Where is this kind of basis reliable? Can a woman's intuition determine history?" Although Gengoro said that, Lancelow's red eyes appeared in his mind, waving the Fenghua knife in his hand, and yelling with excitement. , Led a group of robbers into the brothel territory.

"If the principal of the Brothel Alliance is a woman, then it is the woman who promotes history...at least, it used to be." Xiaocao smiled: "I'm not sure, but if I want to find a reason for all of this, I I think this must be related to the sudden formation of an alliance between Shi Chong and Zhou Gongjin. Negatives become positive. An unreasonable action may be the reason for another unreasonable action."

Xiaocao's statement lacks basis and cannot be verified, but Gengoro can only believe her, and therefore tells the facts to the brothel alliance. If the entire free city falls, then the situation will become extremely bad for Reins, because if the western and southern borders are completely surrounded, Reins, who is weak in manpower and strength under the situation of a strong enemy and a weak one, , It is impossible to defend at all.

"Little Five, what stand do you stand for? Zhou Gongjin also has a cooperative relationship with us. What good is it for him to proactively provoke us? Does Reins think that if the Brothel Alliance and When Eltinus goes to war, will he unconditionally fall to Reins and become your ally?"

"I know this sounds ridiculous, but our chief staff, Miss Cang Yuecao, advocates this, and I believe in her judgment, so I hope the Brothel Alliance can be on guard. After all, everyone has been happily working together. , I don’t want to lose such a good partner."

Gengoro does not need to say "if possible, I hope you can preemptively". Brothel Alliance is not a combination of ignorant people. Excessive provocation will only cause counter-effects. As long as they believe their own words, they will naturally make appropriate decisions. strain.

The question is, will the other party believe it?

The waiting time was not long. After a while, a soft female laugh came from the end of the water mirror.

"Hehe, it's really interesting to see your embarrassment. If Zhou Gongjin is here, I don't know what his expression would be after listening to you?"

"You mean..."

"Don’t underestimate us so much. Even if we are far away in El Tienor, we can detect that Cao Shou has a few more white hairs every day. Such a large group of people have deceived our family. Could it be that we Would you not know anything? Yes, Zhou Gongjin's entire army is under our supervision. According to their material dispatch and the orders to the soldiers, we also judged that the next goal of the Second Army is to launch an attack against us. "

Hearing this sentence, Gengoro's heart was half relieved. The penetration of the Brothel Alliance is unparalleled in the world. Since it can understand the movements of the Second Army, of course there are people who are mixed inside to respond, with mental arithmetic and unintentional, almost waiting for if it is invincible.

"If you are prepared, then I will feel relieved. However, Zhou Gongjin is a very powerful general. The Second Army is very difficult to deal with. How do you plan to..."

"No matter how powerful the army is, you won’t be able to move even if you are hungry! Zhou Gongjin is indeed not easy. If we confront him head-on, we will suffer a lot of losses, so we have to lure him to go deep and clear the way. , Consuming his strength... Hey, what do you think he won in the eleven cities?"

After being said that, Gengoro immediately understood the tactics of the brothel.

The forces of the Brothel Alliance spread throughout the free city. Even in cities that belong to the Eastern family, there are still brothel personnel activities in it. This lady must have given orders after receiving news of the entry of the Altiino army on the way back to the country.

Gong Jin's blitzkrieg can have such amazing results. In addition to his own strength, the brothel alliance deliberately abandoned it, which is also one of the reasons. When the Second Army took the city, although it was not an empty city inside, the supplies such as grain and grass should have been destroyed and polluted by the brothel personnel.

Sending supplies from Eltiño’s homeland is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and for Eltiino, which is in the rebuilding phase, the cost of supplying two huge legions at the same time is enough to overwhelm the country. budget.

The ability to win eleven cities with lightning is Gong Jin’s achievement, but it is also the current limit of the Second Army. While waiting for the Eastern Family’s response, the Second Army must provide supplies to fight again in a complete state. At the same time, the news is blocked to prevent other countries from knowing their own plight; and the brothel alliance, which is lurking in the dark, will naturally not let it. They are better off. Not only will they attack Altiño’s food transport, they will also carry out various guerrilla harassment!

Thinking of changing places with Gong Jin, Gengoro felt a bitter cold. No matter how strong his martial arts, he would be very powerful in this situation, like half of his body was plunged into the mud, and he didn’t know how to take the next step. .

The strategy of the Brothel Alliance is extremely vicious. I see that Gong Jin, who values ​​military discipline and people’s heart, will not allow soldiers to kill even if he cannot get the military rations and must plunder the people’s homes. Even if the nightmare of slaughter comes true, those cities are Eastern The brothel alliance doesn't hurt at all because of the family's land.

In order to supplement, within about two or three days, Gong Jin must launch an attack on a neighboring city, which is a city in the southern part of the sphere of influence of the Brothel Alliance. However, the Brothel Alliance, which is willing to abandon the battle, will set its defensive strategy to do as much damage as possible to the enemy instead of defending the city. The Second Army that wins the city will only face the dilemma of no food or grass again and again.

The more cities you win, the more you have to disperse your forces to control and suppress them. When the main battle force of the Second Army becomes more dispersed and weaker, the alliance of brothels will turn into darkness and fight the Second Army. battlefield.

Gong Jin seems to have the advantage now, but his enemy is hidden behind the dark, where the force cannot reach. If this situation evolves, the final situation is likely to be the annihilation of the Second Army. There are a few masters who can escape from the free city.

"This is not the first to be invaded since the existence of Free City, but compared with such peerless heroes as Xuan Ye and Yinzhen, what is Zhou Gongjin?"

This rhetoric sounds arrogant, but Gengoro understands its truthfulness.

During the Kyushu War, the Demon Race first attacked the Free City and encountered a similar counterattack. In the end, the Demon Race army was completely wiped out. Even the sons of Xuan Ye who were in charge of the army were almost unable to survive. It was a beautiful one. However, before Xuan Ye’s imperial conquest, Liberty City took the initiative to surrender to the demons and signed a very preferential contract. Under the control of the demons, they enjoyed almost complete self-reliance treatment, but harmed the rest of humanity. The country lost its powerful allies and was destroyed one after another.

"Even Temujin himself has never dared to move Shangri-La arbitrarily. I would like to see what Zhou Gongjin has this time to turn the tide in this situation."

Gengoro thought for a while. Under normal circumstances, this is indeed the case. This is not something that can be changed by sending a few celestial masters to break the city in an instant. Even if the city is broken, the main enemy is still not found, and food supplies are still not available. Even if every city in the free city is destroyed, the Second Army can only be friends with hunger, and at most the surrounding scenery will be "cleared."

It's just "scorched earth".

"The basic strategic direction is correct, but the final battle should be won by the battle of heaven. If I am not mistaken, the battle location should be in Jerusalem!"

The other end of the water mirror remained silent, unwilling to confirm Gengoro's guess, but from the atmosphere between the two, Gengoro knew that he had not guessed wrong.

"Zhou Gongjin himself is unclear, but if the decisive battle location is in Jerusalem, I think you have no reason to lose, but I still ask, do you need our assistance?"

It seems a little surprised at this proposal, the other end of the water mirror gave a soft "Huh" and said, "Do you still have such a margin? As far as I know, the manpower on your side should also be very tight. Ah!"

"This is indeed the case. After all, we are also under the pressure of the NPC and it is not easy to bear. However, if the Free City can succeed in the first battle, the situation in the future will be very beneficial to us. I think it is worth sending a master. Join the war."

"Since you are so generous, then I'm not welcome. Girl Ni'er, Girl Feng'er, I haven't seen them for a long time. Shall we send them here and hold a celebration concert after the war? Certainly? Very profitable."

"...you wanted to have a celebration so early?"

"Marshal, I am very sorry, this is the fault caused by the incompetence of his subordinates."

"I remember that I have especially emphasized the importance of this batch of grain and grass. I also sent troops to strengthen the guard."

"That’s right, but the enemy’s cunning is beyond expectations. Our troops never had the opportunity to contact the food transport team. The food transport team was attacked while still in Eltinus, and the entire army was wiped out. The entire convoy was burned down."

In the Temporary Marshal's Mansion of the Second Army, Gong Jin listened to reports from his subordinates about the complete destruction of the food transport troops. The demise of this force also meant that within at least fifteen days, Eltinus was unable to transport the first The replenishment of food and grass for the second time, for the current serious situation, this is undoubtedly worse.

This temporary marshal's mansion was built after the Second Army entered the city and requisitioned the original city lord's mansion. The surrounding wall decorations have suffered some damage, and there is no time to repair it at the moment. Looking out from the window, the blood marks left by many of the best of the Eastern family before they fought to death have not been completely removed. The heavily armed soldiers came and went frequently. The expressions on their faces seemed quite uplifting, but the eyes were uneasy.

Soon after Gong Jin took control of the city, he ordered the army to only take the minimum measures to maintain law and order, and not to harass the people in the city too much.

If the people are afraid to take to the streets and hide at home, the goods and economy of the entire city will not flow, which is not a good thing for the occupying party. So although the sudden war frightened the people, it did not have much impact except for the replacement of the ruling system.

It is the occupying army that is really troubled. After entering the city, although he was rushing to occupy the granary at the fastest speed, he always got a pile of burnt up ash piles, broke through 11 cities in a row, and increased a large number of civilians who needed to feed their stomachs, but in terms of food sources Facing a big crisis.

Aware of this situation, Gong Jin resolutely took measures and sent food from Eltinore. The Second Army plus 11 cities for half a month of food and grass, such a huge number, the rear military personnel almost paled. Fortunately, Xu Liewu shouldered it and ordered the family to try to get it together.

Under the leadership of the coach of the Second Army, the fighting spirit is very high. Even in the face of the crisis of possible food shortage, the military spirit still does not fluctuate. From the perspective of ordinary military science, this is almost unbelievable, and it is exactly what they have to do with the coach. Proof of unconditional confidence.

However, the current situation is at its limit. Every soldier knows the importance of this batch of forage and grass. If they know that this batch of forage and grass is burned by a surprise attack and the food shortage crisis comes true, it is really very important that the soldiers can survive. It is doubtful.

"Marshal, his subordinates are willing to take responsibility."

The officer responsible for bringing the troops to meet the food delivery team, lay down on the ground and pleaded guilty to the coach. He believes that his death should calm the anger of the soldiers and is the most appropriate way to deal with it. However, his coach obviously does not think so.

"Even if your head is hung up high, the soldiers' stomachs will not be full. This will not change anything."

Gong Jin said lightly, with a calm tone. The officer lying on the ground couldn't see the boss's expression, and it was even more difficult to judge the boss's mood from this tone. It took a long while before he got the message from Chief Jiang Zhong's eyes in front of him, and silently withdrew. room.

"Although the enemy would have guessed this kind of action for a long time, the Brothel Alliance is really powerful. It actually carried out surprise attacks directly in the territory of El Tienor..."

This kind of sigh, anyone will have. Today's El Tienuo, the main force is concentrated in the Central Capital and the two battlefields, there are only a few scattered guards in the place, and if the force is emptied, when the supply line is stretched, it is impossible to stop the brothel alliance from appearing and ghosting. Raid.

Gong Jin stood up, looked out the window with his hand, trying to find some information from what he saw. What he said was not talking to himself. Besides Jiang Zhong, there was also a witch who had lifted her invisibility and emerged from the darkness.

"Marshal, do we need any action?"

Having returned to the human appearance, Hao Kelian is just a gorgeous human beauty, but to the others in this room, her identity is not a secret.

"No need yet, at least not enough to use you. You are an important trump card in our hand. If we use you too early, we will lose a lot of advantages."

Gong Jin said: "In order to make you retreat all over this time, we paid a lot of price, so that the enemy began to see our strength. The loss in this area will be retrieved the next time you are dispatched."

The three were talking to themselves, and there was a loud noise not far away, as if something had exploded over there. Gong Jin ignored it, and Hao Kerian smiled and did not move. Only Jiang Zhong rushed out after bending over to salute the coach.

This is a guerrilla surprise attack by the brothel staff. Since entering the city, eleven cities have happened repeatedly, or suddenly a certain house was blasted with fire, or set fire somewhere, or it was just a weird noise at night, disturbing people’s hearts, and leaving the soldiers in the city unconscious. Tensed nerves all the time, unable to rest at ease.

The food shortage crisis, coupled with these harassment, the Brothel Alliance tried to reduce the morale and strength of the enemy as much as possible before the official battle. Although Gong Jin can see through this point, the Brothel Alliance is deeply ingrained in the free city. After thousands of years of operation, the personnel have been hidden without trace. It is just a waste of effort to find people from house to house, not to mention Gong Jin doesn’t think. There is no brothel lurking in his army, so he doesn't plan to do this at all.

Compared with the scattered guerrillas in this area, another problem is more serious. Although only a few dozen people develop symptoms, after observation, Gong Jin suspects that the brothel alliance has poisoned his side, and at the same time, he uses both psychological and physical aspects to combat it. enemy.

If only drinking water is poisoned, it is easier to handle. What Gong Jin is most worried about is that when the brothel alliance uses the right wind direction, it casts certain odorless and tasteless poisons on the upper wind and spreads through the air overnight. Hundreds of thousands can be poisoned in between.

"Marshal, in addition to the Shi family, Reins is also actively developing Primordial Demon Dao weapons. From what I have seen this time, they are likely to plan to use Primordial Demon Dao weapons to balance the heavens. It hurts us very much, should we..."

"I will leave Zhu Yan to take care of the problems of the Taikoo Demon Path. As for the results, you will have a chance to see them soon."

Gong Jin suddenly said: "How long have you been in the human world?"

"This...I came to the world because I evaded hunting down, and I met the Marshal who was chasing the Demon Race. After losing to you, now... it should be more than a hundred years!"

"Why did I let you make a living, do you remember?"

"Remember very clearly."

"You are very smart. After all, that time has come. You don't need to hide like this in the future, you can move freely. By the way, I heard from my friend that you met your brother."

"Yes, I'm sorry to trouble you, I..."

"Needless to say boring words, the duty of your four iron guards is to protect my safety, but I also have the responsibility to take care of you. The incomplete thing is my fault, so I hope you can be safe. If there is anything If you need it, please ask us for help. As long as you make a decision, I will drive your brother back to the devil..."

Gong Jin smiled and said: "My friend also expressed his willingness to help just now, but if he does it, your brother will probably never have a chance to go to the Demon World again."

Hao Kelian didn't smile, but she felt strangely relaxed in her heart. The iron-faced coach is a man with a very strict personality. He has never joked to his subordinates. Now he will tell such jokes, and he can tell how much he wants to support his heart.

"Thank you, my subordinate... I am very grateful."

Hao Kelian lowered her head deeply while bending over. She did not dare to let Gong Jin see her expression at this time, because in terms of her self-esteem, this would be a very gaffe.

And Gong Jin immediately replied as always indifferent. When Jiang Zhong returned to report and asked for directions for the next step, he asked indifferently.

"Jiang Zhong, if under normal circumstances, how long will it take to forcibly break a city under the control of the Brothel Alliance?"

"Depending on the size of the city, it may range from five to ten days, and it may even take fifteen days to be surrounded and attacked day and night before it can fall."

"So what about when the enemy is half defending and half retreating?"

"This...can't be estimated, but it should be fast."

"It's rare for the host to be so polite and open so many doors in a row to invite us straight into the hinterland. If you just wander at the door, don't you think this is rude?"

"Marshal, you mean..."

"Accept their invitation. If they arrive at the Jerusalem restaurant, they will deliver meals by the way, which is ideal."

The basic strategy was set in this way. Six hours later, the Second Army took the first city in the territory of the Brothel Alliance.
