Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 49 Dark Fire
Because the main force of the southern military region of the empire has seriously exposed its weaknesses of low combat effectiveness and insufficient preparation, it has repeatedly suffered setbacks in conflicts with the Machi Khanate army. These situations were disclosed by the two largest media in the imperial capital , aroused strong dissatisfaction among the people of the empire.
"Empire News" published a headline on the front page on December 29 entitled "What happened to the Imperial Army?" ", and the "Daily Express" published the southern front war in its supplement for several days in a row, and invited experts to make detailed analysis of the unfavorable situation of the war, which aroused great interest from people from all walks of life in the empire, and made the supplement's For the first time, sales surpassed that of the main title.
In a fit of rage, Emperor Situ Mingyue dismissed Chen Xiangnan, the commander of the Southern Military Region Command, and the commanders of the Fifth and Sixth Army Corps, the Duke of the Empire. In the court hearing, the family members of three people, the male was assigned to serve as a side, and the female was confiscated as a slave.
While the eastern front has been stabilized, the Machi Khan's diplomatic missions have also frequently visited the Grand Duchy of Mahad and Andako in the west and the countries of the Nanyang Alliance in the south, with the intention of stabilizing the increasingly severe diplomatic situation. In the dark, there are even some personnel with special missions traveling secretly in Tiannan County and Sanjiang County of the Empire, and their missions are even more unknown.
The Tanghe Empire's diplomatic missions also began to visit the Nanyang Alliance and the Kingdom of Milan, and invited the foreign ministers of the Grand Duchy of Mahad and Andako to visit the empire. At the same time, the Independent 1st Infantry Division, the Independent 2nd Mixed Division, and the Independent 3rd Cavalry Division of the Eastern Military Region of the Empire also began to move westward and assemble, preparing to enter the southern battlefield of Wuhu County. In addition, the Fourth Army of the Western Military Region also began to mobilize for war, making preparations for sending troops south.
A big battle seemed inevitable.
Wufeng, who is far away in the Central Continent, is still ignorant of all these changes. He is intoxicated by the magnificent mountains and rivers near the Green Sea Swamp and the fiery enthusiasm of the girls.
However, Xiao Tang in Qingyang was keenly aware of the change in the situation after receiving the information from the imperial capital Guji and Wuhu County. Wufeng from Northern Luzon reported, asking Wufeng and Ling Tian to hurry back to the northwest to discuss countermeasures.
And Ling Tian, who was sitting in Shuangduiji, after receiving the information from Xiao Tang, also felt that the matter was serious, and he didn't dare to ignore it in the slightest. Feng immediately ended his trip and returned to the northwest immediately, while the affairs of Northern Luzon could be handed over to Mu Haoran and Lu Man.
Wufeng's trip to the Green Sea Swamp has yielded a lot, not only won the affection of the five ethnic minorities, but also inspected the situation of his westernmost territory on the spot. Among the five ethnic groups, the Shatuo ethnic group, which is located in the far west and borders the Indian Kingdom, also reported to Wufeng the hidden worries of its own ethnic existence.
It turned out that due to the small population of the five ethnic groups, especially the Shatuo ethnic group located on the farthest edge, with a population of only 30,000 people, they also lacked the necessary military power. Different tribes form an alliance. A tribe close to the Shatuo tribe - the Punjah tribe has a relatively large force. Although it is not strong in the entire Indian kingdom, it is weak compared to this one. For the five clans, its power is too strong. Under the instigation and instigation of the nobles of this tribe, the armed forces of this tribe have continuously harassed the five tribes in recent years. Sometimes, they pretended to be horse thieves and broke into the territory of the five tribes to plunder, sometimes they used the pretext of suppressing bandits to cross the border and entered the five tribes' residences to blackmail, and sometimes they simply asked the five tribes to pay a certain amount of protection money to ensure the safety of the people of the five tribes. , has intensified in recent years.
For this reason, the five clans also reported and complained to the original rulers of this area, the generals and officials of Vito City. The response from the central government of the Grand Duchy of Luzon was like nothing but silence. The five clans gave up their hearts so far, and had to endure the bullying from their evil neighbors. As long as it was within the tolerance range, they tried their best to swallow their anger. During the period, conflicts broke out a few times because the other party went too far. The Zhe tribe saw the limits of the patience of the five tribes, so they stopped pushing each other too much.
After learning that Wufeng had taken over the actual control of Northern Luzon, the five clans all agreed that this was an excellent time. Because Wufeng's military exploits have long been famous in the Tengger Prairie, and the mighty Luobei people have been defeated by the army led by Wufeng three times and fled. The escaped Luobei had repeatedly broken the coalition forces of the Indian Kingdom, and even captured the nobles and generals of the Indian tribes many times, forcing the Indian Kingdom to accept the requirement of paying huge amounts of property and tribute to the Luobei every year. .
If they can rely on Wufeng as their backing, no matter how daring the Indians are, they will not dare to stroke Wufeng's tiger's beard lightly, then the troubles that have plagued the five races for many years can be easily solved. So the five clans joined forces to ask Wufeng to inspect the territory of each clan, and actively make friends with Wufeng's important officials. Wufeng, Ling Tianfang, and Lu Man also knew about these situations, but Gein's affairs were originally his duties. , so I agreed with the flow.
After inspecting the territories of various ethnic groups, Wufeng promised to establish a checkpoint at the border leading to the Indian Kingdom and send troops to it. On the one hand, it can protect the business travellers, check suspicious persons coming and going, and on the other hand, it can deter those who are uneasy. Part of the Indians played the role of defending the country.
In order to welcome Wufeng's inspection, the five clans also did their best to please them. They selected the most beautiful girls from their respective clans to form a welcome team, and also warmly entertained the guards who came with Wufeng. The gentle officers made their souls fly away, but the strict discipline of the Wufeng Army did not make these officers dizzy, but their eyes were too addicted.
However, Wu Feng fell into the ocean of pink, warm hands and eyes, and enjoyed all the blessings. It was not until Ling Tianfang's urgent report that Wu Feng was awakened from his tenderness, and he hurriedly took the gift presented by the Danhai tribe on behalf of the five tribes. Heart----Two twin beautiful girls from the Danhai tribe who just turned fourteen years old returned to Shuangdui City.
In Shuangduiji, Wufeng made a simple arrangement. Liang Chongxin temporarily led the First Division of the Northwest Army to stay to help He Lianbo and Linghuyi complete the formation and basic training of the Shuangdui Guard Division as soon as possible. He promoted Qu Bo, the former director of the Logistics Department of the First Division, to serve as the deputy division commander of the First Division, and he and Ling Tianfang led the Guards and the Third Division to quickly return home.
In a compound of a deep house in Hanzhong Prefecture, Kansai County of the Empire, it was already dark, and the entire compound seemed uninhabited, but if you look carefully, you can find that there are people ambushing and hiding in every corner , Waiting silently at his post.
A few candles were lit in the hall of the main room, the fire was not dazzling, and the whole hall was still a bit dark, but as long as you pay attention, you can see that there are already several people in the hall, but there is no sound in the hall, Everything seemed so still.
Sitting in the middle is a middle-aged scribe in hemp shirt. His clear face looks erratic under the light, and the random Taoist bun on his head adds to his elegant aura, especially his pair of deep eyes. , flashing bursts of splendor in the dim candlelight, adding a bit of mystery.
"Grandmaster, everyone is here." Standing behind him, a middle-aged man in brown said respectfully.
"Well, since everyone has arrived, let's all talk about the situation." The middle-aged scribe in linen swept his eyes around, radiating power, and the people on both sides felt a shock, as if the His eyes pierced into the depths of his heart, and all his secrets were seen by him.
"Master Feng Tan, you should talk about it first." The man in brown shirt behind the middle-aged scribe in linen looked at the first person on the left.
"Okay, the Grandmaster is here, and we Kanxi disciples are very honored. I, Feng, will report to the Grandmaster the development of our Kanxi Altar in the past year. Up to now, we have developed a congregation of nearly 100,000 people, of which the loyal congregation There are about 20,000 people. The Hanzhong sub-altar has developed the fastest this year, and now has a congregation of 30,000 people, with a backbone of 6,000 people; At this time last year, there were only 14,000 and 2,000 people respectively; the Xikang sub-forum and the Jincheng sub-forum have also made considerable progress, and these two sub-forums have also formed a large-scale secret team. Armed forces, we have already reported this situation to the General Forum in the middle of the year.”
"According to the layout of the main altar, the Bashan sub-altar has secretly established a training base in the Motianling area deep in Daba Mountain, and a material storage base has been established near the Yueyue Peak. Now the training base has begun to be used. The Xikang sub-altar The armed congregation has begun to receive training there in stages. Only the Lujiang sub-altar has a new city guard this year. He also mobilized the police force to arrest more than 30 people from our congregation on the grounds that Zhu Wuneng, the core member of my congregation, gathered a crowd to make trouble and hid a large number of weapons. Nine people were beheaded by Qiu Hou, and the remaining people and their relatives, a total of more than 100 people, were sent to Chongbian to Kamchatka Island.” Speaking of this, Feng Tanzhu, who was originally high-spirited, could not help but be overshadowed.
"Oh? What is the origin of this room's age?" The linen scribe's eyes moved, but he still didn't make a sound ~IndoMTL.com~ The man in the brown shirt behind him opened his mouth and asked.
"Hui Da Shaoshi, this man is from Jinling, Donghai County, the Empire. He graduated from Imperial University, and later served as a small official in the General Administration of the Empire. The deputy director and director of the Internal Affairs Department of Jianfu, the director of the Administrative Department of Hejian Prefecture, has served as the city guard of Lujiang Prefecture in Kansai County since January 694." After bowing and saluting Reply.
"Why does this person hate my congregation so much? Is there any reason here?" The brown-clothed man called "The Great Young Master" standing behind the scribe in sackcloth asked slowly with serious eyes.
"Returning to Young Master, according to the information we have, when this person served as the Director of Internal Affairs in Hejian Mansion, he used the name of our Hejian Mansion congregation to confuse the people and defraud the people of their money. The congregation in the government brutally massacred and suppressed the congregation, and even took measures to prevent the activities of our congregation. We have verified this situation with the Heshuo Temple, and it is indeed true." The man in the brocade suit replied quickly.
"Have you ever used other methods to get in touch with him?" The man in brown had a serious expression on his face.
"Back to the young master, as soon as he took office, we used various means to get in touch with him, but this person did not take hard things, and he was impeccable in everything he said and did. He was quite difficult to deal with, but we did not expect this at the time. It is our fault that people can be vicious, please punish Grand Master and Young Master Feng." Feng Tanzhu also came forward to defend his subordinates.
"Okay, Wen Zhe, there is no need to delve into this matter too much. This person must have a deep prejudice against my Taiping Sect. No matter how much energy is spent, it may be difficult to change. We can find a way from other aspects." The silent scribe in sackcloth finally spoke, his deep voice had an indescribable charm.
"Yes, Grandmaster." The man in brown bowed slightly.
