Monarch of Evernight: Trouble with Thirty Brothers

bsp;Those who reacted quickly immediately thought that on the Evernight Continent, all generals were heroes, but in the upper continent of the empire, they were not so rare. There were many generals among the high-ranking families.

A noble family? !

Xiao Lingshi still showed no emotion on his face, but he calmly took in the reactions of everyone in the conference room. Most of the people sitting here are his close associates, but there are also a few who have closer relationships with other generals. Therefore, he will not speak easily.

However, Wen Ruocheng was just using his tongue. The two pieces of news he just revealed actually contained enough information to make people think. At this moment, the direction of the meeting has quietly changed.

While everyone was discussing, Xiao Lingshi simply closed his eyes to rest his mind. What he was thinking about was a secret conversation he had with Song Zining not long ago. Song Zining is an ally that makes Xiao Lingshi very satisfied. Not only has the cooperation been pleasant several times, but he also jumped to second place in the Song clan's latest heir examination. It can be said that the future is unlimited.

However, what Xiao Lingshi valued most was that Song Zining kept a low profile outside and rarely publicly used the name of the Song clan to get things done. This meant far more to Xiao Lingshi than one or two lucrative businesses. By working together, the traces of his association with the high-ranking disciples can be covered up, and he can continue to maintain his image of not being associated with the powerful.

Xiao Lingshi likes to take a long-term view. If he can cooperate with someone like Song Zining for many years, then the gains and losses of one moment and one place will not matter.

The officers seemed to be talking about the same thing, and the noise in the room became noticeably lower. Xiao Lingshi raised his eyelids and looked at a colonel in the corner who had never spoken. He was a member of General Yang Shuo, the other deputy commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force. This time, the Dong family of Surabaya was appointed to the Seventh Division. , that is, through the Yang family in Xiangfan.

Xiao Lingshi smiled silently in his heart. Song Zining came to him this time to pave the way for the secret fire. He made it clear that the name on display was not the Song family in Gaoling, but the Zhao family in Yanyun. The military may be able to deal with the Song Clan, which is based on business, but facing the Zhao Clan, which is a three-legged clan, it may have no choice but to "act impartially."

Many of the people in this room have been Xiao Lingshi's confidants for many years and should have understood what he meant.

At this time, a young general with a tough face stood up and spoke, saying: "According to the rules of the expeditionary force, whoever conquers the territory belongs to whom. After General Wei Bainian resigned, the Seventh Division was equivalent to a land without a master. Since Qianye can swallow it, it is natural for him to give it to him. However, getting the title of an independent division is not as easy as saying a word. In addition to taking the corresponding responsibility, you must also pay a sufficient price. ! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded, even the few big guys present who had benefited from the Dong family were no exception. When the price was mentioned, the nature of the matter changed subtly.

"What price?" someone asked.

The tough general glared and said: "Of course it's a crusade! Otherwise, how can our expeditionary army lose face? If that kid can win this battle, it will prove that he has enough strength. It's not an exaggeration to give him a designation. As for whether to become an independent division, we will discuss it at that time.”

Wen Ruocheng said calmly: "The question is, who will attack?"

"This and this" When the tough general glanced at Xiao Ling, he was speechless and couldn't answer.

This was originally a very simple question. It was Xiao Lingshi's purview to crusade rebellion and put down dissidents. Therefore, Xiao Lingshi would support this meeting only after the expeditionary army headquarters received a report of the changes in Black Current City. But for some reason today, Xiao Lingshi had no intention of answering the conversation from the beginning, which immediately made the sturdy general at a loss.

As a lieutenant general, Xiao Lingshi holds the fourth group of the Expeditionary Force, and his military power is far superior to that of everyone present. The general was just a major general. Since Xiao Lingshi didn't speak, he didn't dare to ask him directly.

Since Xiao Lingshi obviously had no intention of sending troops, the generals could not help but make speculations. An attentive person will think that the expeditionary force suddenly parachuted a deputy commander-in-chief recently. Although the position and personal rank are the same as Xiao Lingshi, his military rank is general/general. There is generally only one reason that can cause this difference, family background.

Besides, just now Wen Ruo made it clear that Anhuo also had a family background, so many people felt a sudden realization and at the same time had some secret thoughts of watching a good show. If it involves conflicts between several aristocratic families, Xiao Lingshi doesn't want to care about it, and no one can tell his fault.

In this case, the only option is to use the expeditionary force also in Sanhe County. The problem is that although two of the other three divisions had minor frictions with the Seventh Division during the Wei family's rule, it is still difficult to use them to conquer Heiliu City.

Siege warfare is inherently difficult, and a crusade of this nature cannot be occupied. If you win, you will have to hand it over to Dong Qifeng. If you lose, it goes without saying. No one would do such a thankless job without enough benefits. The tough general who suggested it had two divisions in his hands, but he himself would never come forward.

There was another long silence in the conference room.

The awkward silence was finally broken by Wen Ruocheng, who seemed confident and said: "Since the dark fire swallowed up Dong Qifeng's 7th Division, of course this matter will still fall on General Dong. In my opinion, Just send him to attack Qianye. What do the generals think?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone immediately applauded. A faint smile flashed in Xiao Lingshi's eyes, and then it turned into an ancient well.

Soon, Dong Qifeng and Du Yuanze, who were waiting outside the conference room, learned of the decision of the meeting. They were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped to the ground.

Dong Qifeng came to take over the 7th Division. He has no troops at hand now. Can he rely on the remaining dozens of personal guards to attack Heiliu City? There is no need to resort to such stupid methods to seek death.

Dong Qifeng was so angry that his face was livid, and his whole body was trembling with fat. But he also knew that this kind of situation should not happen casually. Wen Ruocheng explained everything clearly and found out the rules and regulations of the Expeditionary Force as annotations. If he wanted to exploit loopholes in military law, the Dong family would definitely not be the one serving in the Expeditionary Force. The lifelong opponent of the veteran general.

Dong Qifeng swallowed this breath and walked out of the conference room with great difficulty, knowing in his heart that the dozen or so beauties might have been wasted on the large number of gold coins he gave away.

The big bosses of the expeditionary force were so greedy that they would never spit out what they swallowed. However, he wanted to challenge Xiao Lingshi's decision, but he didn't know how many more gold coins he would have to put in. How difficult would it be? It's not the same level anymore.

"General, what should we do now?" Du Yuanze asked nonchalantly. He was also bitter. He had no actual military duties. A lieutenant colonel like him who was not good at combat was nothing. In the Dong family, he was just a seventh-level soldier who relied on the past. At most, he received the treatment of a mid-level manager.

Dong Qifeng's face was as dark as water, and he gritted his teeth and said: "What should I do? Mobilize the family's military strength and kill that son of a **** Qianye! If the Seventh Division dares to rob me, I will kill all their untouchables and leave no one behind!"

Du Yuanze's neck shrank, but he didn't say anything. He witnessed with his own eyes the entire process of Dark Fire's attack on the 7th Division headquarters, especially the young regiment commander, who felt even scarier than the general.

Dong Qifeng wants to mobilize troops from his own family to attack. The journey is long and expensive. Even if he can conquer Heiliu City, if he only gains a ruins, it will definitely outweigh the gains. He might as well just find an unowned land and build a city by himself. .

But Dong Qifeng is very angry right now, so it would be great if he is not held accountable for his poor performance. Du Yuanze dares to say more.

At this time, Qianye was sitting in the office on the top floor of the 7th Division headquarters, looking at the map of the entire Sanhe County.

That map is different from the ordinary version. Not only does it include the 500-kilometer-deep terrain of the dark territory on the other side of the Mikawa County front, it also details the distribution of dark forces in that area. This is the result of Song Hu's efforts for more than half a year.

Qianye traced the map with his finger in deep thought. Some routes pointed to the dark territory, while some led to the hinterland of Sanhe County. He was considering a plan to advance westward, and at the same time he had to guard against cold shots from behind.

Dong Qifeng will definitely not give up, and the divisions bordering the 7th Division's defense area were involved in Wu Zhengnan's affairs to varying degrees, but this matter has not been over for long.

Putting down the map, Qianye took a stack of documents on the table. Those were the mercenary group matters that he needed to know or give instructions on, and now the defense of Blackstream City was also added.

After Dark Fire annexed the Seventh Division, Song Hu was completely overwhelmed by himself, and no matter how fast those outstanding bloodline seeds and Ah Qi and Ah Jiu grew, they could not keep up with Dark Fire's expansion speed. There are still a few people in the special company sent by Song Zining who can be used, but they are still not enough for the dark fire independent division that is about to be established. Qianye felt that he needed a few deputy captains.

On top of the stack of documents were two personal letters. The first one was from Song Zining and was not long.

At the beginning of the letter, he told Qianye not to worry, implicitly hinting that Song Zining and some big figures in the expeditionary force had always cooperated happily, and this time was no exception. The number issue will be resolved soon. Although it will cost some money, it is still reasonable. After he finishes handling the matters at hand, he will come to Blackstream City and work with Qianye to deal with the following matters.

Qianye was in a good mood when he saw this place. Unexpectedly, Song Zining changed his mind and started talking about a batch of new products that Hidden Spring will launch. It is said that the quality is the best so far. Such a good opportunity is endless Not to be missed, this time he planned to take Qianye with him to watch the scene.

Song Zining was also very happy to mention that Qianye now has Ah Qi, Ah Jiu and Seventeen. With a few more, he can form a beauty guard. Such a prospect is so pleasant!

Qianye could only smile bitterly and determined not to follow Song Zining to Hidden Spring no matter what. Song Qi Gongzi is good at everything, but he likes to give gifts to women, which really makes him a little bit overwhelmed. If this continues for a long time, the little money he earns from fighting around may not even be enough to support a woman.

However, Qianye immediately remembered Song Zining's words, that is, girls from Hidden Spring do not need to be raised, they are not only beautiful, but they can also work! You can completely support yourself, for example, Ah Qi and Ah Jiu are examples.

Perhaps only Song Zining can have such a unique vision.

Qianye was slightly surprised by the signature of the second letter. It actually came from Wei Potian. He calculated the time and it seemed that Wei Bainian had not returned to the Far East Province when this letter was sent.

Sure enough, judging from the letter, Wei Potian did not know the current situation in Heiliu City. The full text was very short, only half a page, and most of it was about how enjoyable the recent war was.

There is only one sentence at the end. It is said that Prince Bowang is in some trouble. It wasn't a big deal, but it was something he couldn't handle on his own. In line with the principle of brothers sharing difficulties, he was ready to share some of the trouble with Qianye.

Looking at these meaningless words, Qianye suddenly had a bad feeling for some reason.
