Monarch of Evernight: Ninety-seven lockdowns
bsp;"Wei family?" As soon as we mentioned Far East Heavy Industries, its owner appeared?
The staff officer said: "They claim to be from the Wei family in the Far East and say they want to seal the city first so that they can wait for their prince to come!"
Prince! ?
According to the hierarchy of imperial nobility, only canonized heirs above marquis can use this title. Even if those present cannot remember the complicated and huge aristocratic system, marquis must be the backbone of a high-class family. This is common sense! This means that the visitor is from the Wei family in the Far East, and the nature is completely different. Even if the top brass of the expeditionary force is here, they still have to give some face to the Wei family.
Wu Zhengnan's face became extremely ugly and he said in a deep voice: "Are you sure?"
"It should be true. There was actually a squadron of broken-winged angels among the visitors. Even after seeing them, the brothers did not dare to do anything again."
"Are all our city gates sealed?" Wu Zhengnan asked.
"There are people from the Wei family in all four gates."
Wu Zhengnan suddenly said: "Aren't all the airships back? Two aerostats can hold a battalion. Sicheng, you and Lao Zhao go and take the second battalion of the first regiment to the Far East Heavy Industry Meet the people of the 15th Division at the mine. Don’t worry about what’s going on here. You must kill all the guys and the seeds. Don’t leave any one behind!"
Qi Sicheng and a colonel with a gloomy face stood up and followed the order.
Wu Zhengnan then looked around at the cronies in the conference room and said calmly: "Let's go and see what the Wei family can do."
A staff officer suddenly whispered in Wu Zhengnan's ear: "General, we have more than a hundred seeds in custody in the barracks over there. Look..."
Wu Zhengnan did not change his expression, waved his hand and said: "Get rid of them all!"
The staff officer shuddered and responded hurriedly.
Wu Zhengnan said calmly: "There is no need to feel heartbroken. No matter how much money you have, you have to live to enjoy it. Once you have passed this level, the losses will be recovered slowly."
However, the faces of the officers did not look much better. Even the crown prince of the Wei family in the Far East came forward in person, which shows that this test is by no means easy.
Watching two old aerostats take off in the sky and fly towards Duanhe City, Wu Zhengnan showed a trace of imperceptible cruelty on his face, then boarded the off-road vehicle and headed towards the city gate. Drive away.
The two sides are confronting each other.
A row of more than ten military trucks were parked horizontally outside the door, forming a temporary blockade that blocked the road out of the city. There were only a few hundred soldiers driving over, but there were hundreds of expeditionary forces confronting them in the city, and more people were coming in a steady stream.
However, in a confrontation where there seems to be a clear difference in numbers, the side with the smaller number of people actually has the upper hand. Most of the soldiers of the expeditionary force had a look of fear on their faces. They looked outside from time to time and frequently looked back at the city.
The heavy-duty trucks outside the city are not the old ones from the Expeditionary Force system. Even after a long journey, the body of the truck is splashed with mud, but it still cannot hide the beautiful and exquisite nature of those dark black, streamlined metal covers. There are thick power lines everywhere on the exterior of the old Expeditionary Army trucks. Due to lack of maintenance, rust and peeling paint are indispensable embellishments.
Just from the appearance of the vehicle, it is obvious that the two parties do not belong to the same era. The gap between flags and badges is even greater. There are two flags on the trucks besieging the city. One is an angel holding a sword with his head lowered, and blood is still dripping from the wings behind his back. On the other side is the eagle-headed family emblem of the Wei family in the Far East. Ordinary warriors may not recognize the family emblem, but the bear on the head of the pole is a very clear symbol of a great noble.
These two flags alone are enough to stop the soldiers of the expeditionary force from moving forward.
Suddenly there was another commotion in the city. A group of off-road vehicles rushed out of the city gate and stopped in front of the blockade. Wu Zhengnan jumped off the off-road vehicle and shouted in a deep voice: "I am Wu Zhengnan, commander of the Seventh Division! Whoever is in charge here, come out and see me!"
A lieutenant colonel of a broken-winged angel came out in response. He stood in front of Wu Zhengnan. He did not show any more respect for the expeditionary force commander because of the level difference. Instead, he did not hide the arrogance on his face.
"Where is the eldest son of the Wei family? Didn't he say he was coming?"
The lieutenant colonel of Broken Wing Angel said coldly: "Prince Bowang is still at the headquarters of the expeditionary force and will be here in about a day. If you have anything to do, you can tell him when the prince arrives. ! ”
Wu Zhengnan's face sank and he asked, "What do you mean?" He didn't show it on his face, but his heart twitched. Bowang Hou is the title of the head of the Wei family in the Far East!
"It's not interesting. That's what it means to close the city." The lieutenant colonel of Broken Wings Angel spoke bluntly.
"What if I want to go out?"
"Before I came, the Crown Prince had ordered that no one was allowed to come in or out. General Wu, it seems that you are not included in the exception." What the lieutenant colonel did not say was that Wei Potian had told , Wu Zhengnan cannot be allowed to run away no matter what.
"The Far East Wei family's hand can't reach the expeditionary army, right?"
"The Wei family in the Far East may not be able to do it, but we broken-winged angels can." The lieutenant colonel replied proudly.
Wu Zhengnan nodded and said: "Well, I will wait in the city for Prince Wei to come. Since you still want to close the city, please forgive me for not entertaining him well."
After saying that, Wu Zhengnan jumped on the off-road vehicle and actually turned around and went back to the city. This made the lieutenant colonel of Broken Wing Angel shocked. He didn't expect that the division commander who was rumored to have a hot temper would actually swallow this breath like this.
But that's fine, the lieutenant colonel turned around and shouted: "Get off the car! Form a team! We will camp here!"
In the off-road vehicle, Wu Zhengnan remained silent. The adjutant beside him said softly: "General, should we make some more preparations?"
"No need." Wu Zhengnan closed his eyes and rested.
He was calm, but the adjutant was uneasy.
Wu Zhengnan suddenly asked: "Are there still many people in the Chengnan Prison?"
"Yes," the adjutant calculated in his mind and said, "There are more than four hundred people."
"Kill them all." Wu Zhengnan's tone was very calm.
The adjutant shuddered again and gritted his teeth: "Don't worry, General, I will get rid of this matter tonight."
Wu Zhengnan nodded and said: "Don't get out of the car in a hurry. There is a list in my office. You will get the list later, take my personal guards with you, and kill everyone on the list. Don’t leave anyone behind, don’t make too much noise, got it?”
"Understood!"
The off-road vehicle sped towards the division headquarters and drove out shortly after entering. This time there were several troop trucks following behind, driving towards the south of the city with murderous intent.
Wu Zhengnan stood alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of his office, overlooking the school grounds. Looking further away, he could see the entire city. He has seen this scene for many years. It started out as a fortress, and slowly developed block by block, from a small town to a small city, until it is now a medium-sized city.
He missed this process very much, so after so many years, he never changed offices. In order to completely preserve the view from this angle, the office building was not even rebuilt or significantly renovated. Considering his current status, this office was already very shabby. But sitting here, in the short sunshine of sunrise and sunset, watching the whole city develop bit by bit, is when Wu Zhengnan is most satisfied.
Whether the foundation of this city is blood or bones is not what Wu Zhengnan cares about. For him, any weak person is a stepping stone and a ladder for him to climb to the top, while the strong person is the handrail for climbing.
The Evernight Continent is in darkness most of the time. Food resources are limited, but human beings have an extremely strong ability to reproduce. A large population would give any ruler a headache, and Wu Zhengnan gradually found it difficult to feed so many people. Some generals choose to purchase food from the empire or other continents, while others choose to let those who consume too much food die. The best way to kill a large number of people is, of course, war. Wu Zhengnan felt that he had found a third way, which was also a better way, which was to sell the excess population to the dark race. It made no difference whether the opponent was a werewolf or a vampire.
It's noon now, and it should be a rare sunny time. However, the sky was covered with clouds, as dark as dusk, which made Wu Zhengnan feel very depressed. He has survived many crises, but he is not sure whether he can get through it safely this time.
"I don't believe General Xiao would let them do this!"
Xiao Lingshi is now Wu Zhengnan’s hope. Xiao Lingshi was not yet fifty years old, but he had already become a lieutenant general and held the position of deputy commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force. He is also the only one among the current senior leaders of the expeditionary force who was born in the Evernight Continent. According to the classification of the empire, Xiao Lingshi was born into a poor family. Strictly speaking, he was not even considered a poor family.
In the past, Xiao Lingshi defended the interests of the expeditionary force extremely firmly, even going so far as to confront the upper-class nobles of the empire. This aspect made him a troublemaker in the eyes of the empire's upper echelons. On the other hand, it won him the love from top to bottom in the expeditionary force.
The Wei Clan from the Far East and the Broken-Wing Angel Legion came so forcefully, sealing off the city and blocking the roads without saying a word. It seemed that they were only suppressing the 7th Division, but to Xiao Lingshi, this was intolerable. of offense. As long as Xiao Ling is in the middle to check and balance, even if Bowang Hou Shizi comes in person, he can't do whatever he wants. Perhaps Wu Zhengnan can easily overcome this difficulty.
In fact, until now, Wu Zhengnan didn't know exactly when he offended a behemoth like the Wei family in the Far East. This matter came out of the blue, not to mention the allies, there was no news at all, and even his connections in the expeditionary force headquarters did not send a word. The whole thing had an ominous meaning.
Wu Zhengnan thought repeatedly in his mind, saying that the family had taken a fancy to the area of Heiliu City and Sishui Base and wanted to take down him as the division commander? This kind of thing has not happened before in the history of the expeditionary force. But it doesn't quite look like it. Wu Zhengnan remembers that the Wei family is a feudal lord, and the entire Far East Province belongs to them. It's just a third-level defense zone in a remote area of Yongye Continent, and it's so close to the front line. What's the use of them coming?
Speaking of which, if you want to dig deeper, every division commander of the expeditionary force has pigtails. The most important point is that the boy named Qian and the seeds he took away are the ones who have stepped on them. The fatal matter of the red line of military law. As long as they are all killed and there is no evidence, even if they are eventually found to have some minor ailment, Xiao Ling will be there at most, and they will be punished or reprimanded at most. But if these seeds are kept alive and there is irrefutable evidence, not only will it be difficult for Xiao Lingshi to speak, but more things will be involved.
Thinking of this, Wu Zhengnan felt quite sure. There was no way that his most elite battalion, plus an entire regiment of the 15th Division, could not defeat just a few hundred people. What's more, the manager of Far East Heavy Industries who has dealings with the 15th Division is said to have secretly withheld their largest batch of weapons and ammunition. Now those people can only be half armed at best.
Wu Zhengnan was much calmer at this time and was waiting for Crown Prince Bowang to show up.
In the evening, in the small town of the Black Stone Mining Area of Far East Heavy Industry, the soldiers Qianye sent out to track Wei Cheng in the early morning had just returned at this time. After listening to the report, they couldn't help but ponder for a long time.
The tracker was very patient. After watching Wei Cheng enter the Far East Heavy Industries base in Duanhe City, he did not leave immediately. He felt that there was a bit of movement inside, as if things were being moved, but it did not look like weapons and equipment being sent to Qianye. The answer came out in the afternoon. Wei Cheng left Duanhe City and headed southwest, accompanied by two trucks. The tracker saw a woman and a child among them.
There is no doubt that Wei Cheng has a problem, but the most important thing at hand is what to do next.
Qianye nodded and ordered: "Go and invite the two guard captains from Far East Heavy Industries to come over."
