Loulan City, the capital of Loulan Kingdom. In the small but antique Loulan Palace, a worried old man was sitting in a beautiful living room, stroking his forehead and thinking deeply. A rush of footsteps came from outside the door. The door was suddenly pushed open, and a strange fragrance of flowers hit his nostrils.
The old man frowned and couldn't help but said: "Qinna, you are almost 18 years old. You should pay attention to your image. Don't be so busy all the time. How can you look like a lady? I'll let you learn. I think I learned all the court etiquette in vain.
The fiery red figure who rushed in was the old man's golden daughter - Haliqina, known as the Pearl of the Western Region. This old man was of course the current chief of the Loulan Kingdom, Chief Haibar, known as the Fox of the Prairie.
Only when you see the fiery red figure in front of you will you lament the injustice of the creator. Perhaps God has given the girl in front of you so much favor that she was born with such a natural beauty. A head of dark brown curly hair is combed into several unique braids. A pair of blue eyes like the sea are set on a plump and round face. The nose is high and the heels are high. The plump and delicate lips exude an alluring luster. A mouthful of snow-white teeth , always with a sunny smile. Especially her snow-white skin without a trace of flawlessness, her entire face was like a work of art that was unparalleled in the world.
What's even more exciting is her proud figure. Looking from bottom to top, her straight and slender thighs don't have a trace of fat. They are made from a lot of exercise. Her plump and round buttocks at the top become sharply thinner when they reach her waist, forming a seductive figure. She has a human-shaped waist, and upwards are those firm peaks that reach into the clouds. It is really hard to believe that she is still a girl under the age of eighteen.
As soon as she entered the room, what followed was the rich fragrance of flowers, which was refreshing. "Why is Daddy so frowning? Is there something on your mind?" He ran up behind the old man and hugged his father's neck. His sweet and soulful voice was enough to make any man enchanted.
"Huh? Why do you care about daddy today? The sun is rising in the west?" Haibal stretched his wrinkled forehead slightly and asked with a smile: "Why didn't you go horseback riding today to relax?"
"Oh, brother, I don't want to accompany you. It's not much fun to ride a horse alone in the cold weather." The girl retracted her slender hand, and a delicate riding whip made of twisted calf tendons was skillfully retracted into her hand.
"Your brother and the others have important matters. Unlike you, who are crazy all day long. I think it would be better to find someone to marry you as soon as possible." Haibal said pretending to be angry.
"No, dad can't let me go. I won't get married. I want to stay with dad and mom all my life." The girl said coquettishly.
"Silly girl, how can a girl's family not get married? However, as long as we Loulan people are free to marry, your father and mother will not interfere with your marriage. As long as you are satisfied, it doesn't matter who you choose." Haibal said with a face. A loving smile appeared on his face.
"Thank you, dad! But I don't think about these things right now." Hariqina had a happy smile on her face.
"You are not young anymore. It's time to think about your own affairs. If you are not satisfied with the boys from our Loulan country, there are many talents in other countries in the Western Region." Haibal said to the apple of his eye with concern.
"Why does it have to be in a few countries in our Western Region? Isn't it possible in other countries?" A touching blush appeared on the girl's white and delicate cheeks.
"Oh? Do you really want to marry a stranger? You know the Tanghe people have a proverb, if you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, if you marry a dog, follow the dog. By then, won't it be difficult for your mother and I to see you?" Ha. Yibal was surprised and said that his daughter has always acted independently, so it is difficult to say that she has done anything extraordinary.
"I didn't say that I had to find outsiders, but daddy, look where can you find any men worth mentioning in the countries in the Western Region?" Hariqina has always set her sights on others, and ordinary people usually don't care. In his eyes, coupled with the strong yin and weak yang among the royal families in the Western Regions, it was impossible to choose a suitable partner.
Haibal didn't know about this situation, but from various perspectives, he hoped that his beloved daughter could marry in this area or find a bride. This would be more in line with the interests of the Loulan Kingdom, but he was unwilling to go against his daughter's wishes. , I had to do my daughter’s ideological work in a circumstantial manner.
"How can you say that? Isn't your eldest brother considered one? The eldest prince of Gaochang Kingdom is also pretty good." Haibal persuaded Haliqina with a smile.
"Of course the eldest brother can be counted as one, but I really haven't set my sights on the others. Forget about Gao Changguo. He is timid and cowardly, just like his father. He doesn't look like a man at all!" Hariqina said. He said with a curl of his lips.
Haibal's face also became serious, obviously aroused by his daughter's words. He shook his head to express his disagreement with his daughter's view, "Qinna, countries are in different positions and have different actual situations. We cannot simply infer the rightness or wrongness of their actions from their performance. The Gaochang Kingdom is between the Luobei people and the Mo In the transfer zone between Te and the Tanghe Empire, whether it is the Luobei or the Mote people, their military strength far exceeds that of the Gaochang Kingdom, and the newly emerged strongman Li Wufeng in the northwest of the empire is even more extraordinary and extremely ambitious. I am sharpening my sword, waiting for an opportunity to extend my claws into our Western Region. Under this situation, even if I am in that corner, I will act with caution. I would rather compromise than let the enemy find an excuse to use force. It is a matter of great importance to the wealth of the people across the country. Don’t take it lightly. You may not understand this now, but you will understand it when you are our age.”
Seeing that her father was aroused, Hariqina was also a little sad. Her father had worked hard for many years and pursued the policy of keeping a low profile and recuperating, making the Loulan Kingdom's national power surpass other countries in the Western Region and become the strongest in the Western Region in this generation. A powerful country, but compared with other major surrounding forces, there is still a considerable gap. Therefore, he actively made good friends with Luzon to the south, tried to avoid conflicts with the Luobei people to the north, and tried his best to protect Luzon in the Western Regions. He advocated strengthening unity and external relations, and gradually became the leader among the countries in the Western Regions.
However, the heavy pressure has also made Haibal become older and less energetic than before. His eldest brother is also very energetic and has the courage of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. This makes Haibal feel very uneasy even though he is happy. He is worried about attracting foreign enemies. hostility, thereby affecting the country's interests and security.
While combing her father's somewhat messy hair and sideburns, Haliqina comforted him: "Dad, don't worry too much. As long as our countries in the Western Regions unite as one, I don't think either the Luo Bei people or that Li Wufeng have any evil plans." , I’m afraid we have to consider it.”
Haibal smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Qinna, you underestimate those two families. The Luobei people cover an area of thousands of miles and have a population of millions, and their nation has the ability to serve both the soldiers and the people. Its traditional habits, its military strength far exceeds that of our countries in the Western Region, and its tribe also has many good ministers and generals who are unwilling to give in. Its chief chief Wadeya is not a good person, he is greedy, and is actually the number one enemy of our countries in the Western Region. And the Li Wufeng in the west is even more extraordinary. He is better at playing tricks, sowing discord, threatening and luring, adding insult to injury, fishing in troubled waters, driving tigers and devouring wolves. These tricks are all his specialty. Not to mention that he himself is also good at it. He has considerable strength, and in my opinion, this person will pose a far greater threat to our enemies in the Western Regions than the Luobei people, and will become a serious concern for us."
Thinking of this, Haibal felt like a thorn in his back, and a chill ran down his spine involuntarily.
Seeing that her father was so troubled, Haliqina had no other way to comfort him, so she had to gently massage his head to relieve his tension, but Haibal said directly: "Look at him this time Sensing that there was an opportunity in Luzon, he immediately sent troops to Northern Luzon to take advantage of the opportunity. His actions were so bold and unrestrained, and he had no scruples about the diplomatic norms between countries, which is really shocking." After finishing speaking, Hai said. Barr sighed.
"Since we can't compete with him, then let's do our best to befriend him. This way we can avoid being attacked from both sides." Haliqina hesitated for a moment and said.
Haibal's eyes suddenly brightened, and then dimmed again, "I'm afraid it's difficult. This person has been eyeing our Western Region for a long time, and he is absolutely unwilling to give up his plans for some petty gains. You should categorically stop contact with us from him." This can be seen from the negotiation of alliance, but instead reached an agreement with the Luobei people. Moreover, his intelligence agents are becoming increasingly active in various countries in our Western Region, and his wolf ambitions are clearly exposed."
"Then don't we have any other way to deal with him?" Haliqina was also affected by her father's heavy atmosphere, and her voice lowered. Thinking that her homeland would be conquered by foreign invaders, she was emotionally overwhelmed. It’s hard for anyone to accept.
"Silly girl, don't make stupid ideas. That will only give him a better excuse. As a local emperor, he has many subordinates and hordes of guards, how can he be unprepared?! I heard that Huanfeng Sect didn't know about it some time ago Anyway, they actually wanted to assassinate Li Wufeng, but they ended up losing everything. I don’t know who was behind them to do such a stupid thing? But it’s strange that Li Wufeng didn’t take this opportunity to get angry, which puzzled me. Maybe this guy There must be a more powerful back-up plan." After Haibal finished speaking, he thought hard for a long time.
"Dad, don't worry too much. The car has its own way to the front of the mountain. I think Li Wufeng is not a trivial person. He is still a human being. Doesn't he have weaknesses? We can observe and analyze more to find out his weaknesses. Let’s take a closer look.” A trace of unyielding light flashed across Hariqina’s face.
"Division Commander, that's the Green Sea Swamp over there." Helianbo rode up to the highest point of the hill and pointed to the western sky. He could see the end of the horizon. Even in early winter, he could see that it was a blur. of green color.
"Well, it's basically safe here. I have finally successfully completed the task assigned by you. Speaking of which, it is thanks to the reconnaissance and planning of this boy Linghuyi that I can do such a good job." Liang Chongxin drove his horse to the high place, There was a look of dust on his face, but he couldn't hide the pride in his heart.
"Yeah, what this guy Linghu Yi did is really beyond words. Our raid this time only lost less than a thousand men and horses, but we wiped out all the food, grass and supplies of the Komini people. I think that shuttle What would Lun look like when he saw the ruins of the supply base? He must be beating his chest and stamping his feet and wanting to cry without tears, haha, it is so happy. By the way, division commander, you must ask Mr. Li for Linghu Yi when you go back First achievement." Helianbo's dark red face flashed with excitement.
Liang Chongxin nodded with satisfaction. To be honest, he was very satisfied with his assistants. After two years of training, they have become capable talents who can stand alone. He Lianbo's style is brave and tenacious, and he is very knowledgeable about the general situation and has the demeanor of a general. Ling Huyi, the chief of staff, is calm-minded, good at planning, and has a unique vision. He often has extraordinary plans and always gets the best results. The logistics director, Qu Bo, was promoted from the commander of the regiment with military merit. Not only can he complete his job perfectly, but he also has considerable military skills. He is a rare all-round general.
What satisfied Liang Chongxin the most was that several people were able to unite as one and cooperate with each other very well, making the first division's combat effectiveness appear to be at the top of Wufeng's main forces.
"Helian, let's camp here today. Although we are out of the danger zone, we still have to be careful. You go and arrange security."
"Okay." Helianbo's eyes were still fixed on the west.
