"Oh?" Wu Feng, who was resting with his eyes closed, couldn't help but open his eyes slightly, with a solemn expression on his face, "Fang Xianling is an old and steady guy, and he actually took action at this critical moment. Could it be that the empire has already done this? Are you fully prepared? It shouldn’t be so fast?”
Slowly sitting up, Wu Feng thought carefully, "Shuangying, the information came yesterday, where is the fastest division of the Empire's Fourth Army?"
Qin Shuangying answered without thinking: "The fastest one has already entered the boundary of Jinzhong Prefecture. According to the current time, it should have passed Jinzhong Prefecture City by now." Originally, the best way to return to Kansai from the Wuhu area was to pass through Sanjiang County The area goes straight into Kansai, but an army of this size passing through Sanjiang County will inevitably arouse the wariness of the Lin family, the actual ruler of Sanjiang County. In fact, this is not realistic as planned, so the Fourth Army can only take a detour northward and cross the Hejian via Jinzhong. , Tianshui Prefecture, and then changed the route from Tianshui to the south and returned to the Kansai region. As a result, the distance is much longer, the road conditions are not very good, and the time required is also much longer.
"What about the news from the Imperial Capital?" After thinking for a moment, Wu Feng asked again.
"The news came from the day before yesterday that some personnel from the Imperial Interior Department and the Police Headquarters have moved westward in batches. It is estimated that the destination is the Kansai prefectures. In addition, the situation in the imperial capital and neighboring prefectures has also begun to become tense, but in general There's nothing big done yet." Qin Shuangying lightly brushed her hair on her temples with her green fingers and answered.
"Then why is Fang Xianling so impatient to go to war? Did the Taiping believers in Lujiang do something excessive to irritate him?" Wu Feng said to himself.
After a moment's hesitation, Qin Shuangying quickly glanced at Guan and Lu, the two girls beside Wu Feng, and then said: "Brother Feng, I guess it's because of the old man. Considering the unique geographical location of Lujiang Mansion, he is worried that if he delays for a long time, it will become more and more serious." It's hard to control, so why take action first?" Lujiang is located in the southeast of Guanxi County, bordering Tiannan County to the east, Bashan Prefecture to the west, Hanzhong Prefecture to the north, and the vast Hengduan Mountains to the south. It can be said to be the center of the empire. This is a relatively remote prefecture in the area under its jurisdiction. The folk customs are closed and it is highly susceptible to the influence of the local clans and surnames.
After hearing Qin Shuangying's words, Wu Feng was stunned, and then he carefully tried to figure out the meaning. Fang Xianling was a shrewd and capable official. Perhaps he had long been aware of the severe situation in the surrounding counties, but he was only a city guard. Naturally, they have no right to interfere in the affairs of other prefectures and counties, and Lujiang is remote and isolated from the center of the empire by other prefectures and counties. If unrest really breaks out, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the Lujiang Prefecture to control it, so it is better to strike first to gain strength. One of the best methods.
After thinking about this, Wu Feng nodded with satisfaction and gave the waiting beauty an appreciative look. Qin Shuangying, who was a little uneasy, suddenly felt as comfortable as if she had eaten honey, and her energy doubled.
"Sister Qin really understands what Brother Feng means. If it were the younger sister, there would be nothing we can do." Lu Xianxian said with an envious smile.
"Xianxian doesn't need to envy you Sister Qin, it's enough for you to understand your brother Feng's feelings in the future." Wufeng smiled and put his big hand into the top of Lu Xianxian who was leaning beside him, and gently rubbed it Touching her smooth and clean belly, he would circle his fingers on the beauty's belly from time to time, making her blushing face unable to help but twist her body, her mist-like eyes firmly locked on the love beside her. Lang's face.
"Bah, Brother Feng knows how to say these dirty words to seduce people, even when doing serious things." Guan Yingying on the other side saw Ailang's devilish hand reaching into the slender clothes, and pinched Ailang with a charming smile. Wu Feng's thigh was so painful that Wu Feng couldn't help grinning, and his other hand directly pressed Yingying's buttocks without any politeness, making Yingying, who was a little resentful, immediately tremble and soften.
Even Qin Shuangying, who was carefully checking the information, seemed to feel the gloomy atmosphere in the room. Her fair and tender cheeks slowly turned red. Although her eyes were still looking at the information on the case, she was unconsciously flipping through it in her hands. But the thoughts inside have already flown to no one knows where. Although she had made love with Wu Feng many times in the imperial capital, she almost always slept with Wu Feng alone. Although she knew that sooner or later she would have to serve Ai Lang with these sisters, she never revealed the truth. This layer of paper. Seeing now that De Guan and Lu were already in high spirits under Wu Feng's deliberate provocation, looking at the situation, if they weren't there, they might have had to work together on the spot, so they couldn't help but tighten their legs and didn't dare to say anything. I am deeply afraid that my situation will be discovered by the other party.
In fact, Wu Feng had already discovered Qin Shuangying's changes, but he still teased the two Guan Lu girls quietly. Although Qin Shuangying had sex with him many times, she was still shy in this regard due to her conservative nature, even more so than before. Thinking of this, Wu Feng couldn't help but get excited. If he could press these two senior sisters to his vagina at the same time and enjoy the blessing of them all, the wonderful taste would be really extraordinary. He didn't know what he was doing. When will we be able to get what we want? Wu Feng quietly glanced at the somewhat embarrassed beauty.
"Sir, there is urgent news from people coming from Northern Luzon!" The distant announcement from the guards interrupted Wu Feng's leisurely thoughts. He was slightly startled. Wu Feng immediately returned to normal, and a pair of hands came from the two women beside him. He pulled out of his body, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Let him come to my study." He motioned to the women to leave.
At this time, an urgent report came from Northern Luzon. It must be a relatively important matter. The girls all got up knowingly. Guan Lu and the other two girls quickly tidied up their somewhat scattered clothes, sent a charming look to Ai Lang, and then left slowly. .
After reading the letter, Wu Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly. Although he had not completely forgotten the incident, he did not expect that the Indians would come to visit him again at this time. It seemed that it was all his fault when he was in the imperial capital. It was a lack of consideration. At that time, I only knew how to obtain benefits, but did not consider that obtaining benefits also required paying a considerable price, especially at this point.
Liang Chongxin's letter was to report to Wu Feng the requirements of the nobles of the Hyderabad tribe of the Indian Kingdom. It was also a matter of implementation of the agreement reached between Wu Feng and the Indian envoy in the imperial capital. After the agreement was reached, the Indians abided by the agreement. , and soon opened the checkpoints in the areas they controlled. Goods and caravans in Wufeng-controlled areas did receive tariff reductions and exemptions when passing through the tribal-controlled areas in Hyderabad, but these benefits were not unconditional. Starting from May, Nobles from the Hyderabad tribe came one after another to ask Wu Feng to fulfill his promise, but Ling Tianfang and Liang Chongxin refused because Wu Feng had not yet returned to their territory and could not make the decision. But the persevering Indians even sent envoys to Zhongzhou to visit Wu Feng again and asked Wu Feng to fulfill his promise. At that time, Wu Feng also excused himself by saying that he had not returned to his territory, but at the insistence of the other party, he had to agree to return to his territory. I will give them a satisfactory explanation before I take action.
Who knew that the Indians had such a keen sense of smell? The other party probably got the news as soon as he left Beijing, otherwise they would not have found Liang Chongxin so quickly. It will come sooner or later, and this problem cannot be avoided. The problem is that the empire is currently in chaos, but Northern Luzon is in a relatively safe environment. It is the development of the economy that will build it into its own big country. There is a good opportunity in the rear. If there is a conflict with the Panzhe tribe and the Tik tribe behind them at this time, will it affect my overall plan? This made Wu Feng a little distressed.
After reading Liang Chongxin's letter carefully again, Wufeng's heart slowly calmed down. Over the past six months, as the de facto military commander of Northern Luzon, Liang Chongxin has spent a lot of effort, especially on high-intensity quality and tactical training for the armed forces in the entire Northern Luzon region. The combat effectiveness of both divisions and independent infantry divisions has been greatly improved. Several divisions have also conducted several combined military exercises under the leadership of the First Division, and the results have been quite good. These are all revealed in Liang Chongxin's intermittent letters to Wu Feng reported it.
But with just these four divisions, Wu Feng was not so arrogant as he wanted to challenge the Tik tribe, which was known as one of the three major tribes of the Indians. The Tik tribe is known as one of the three major tribes in the Indian Kingdom, with a population of more than 20 million, and there is also a Pancha tribe next to it. Although the combat effectiveness of the Indian army is not favored by Wu Feng, However, the quantitative gap between the two sides is still an issue that must be considered. As the saying goes, the ants kill the elephant, and the Indians are not ants either.
In addition to these reasons, Wu Feng also has another idea: when the time is right, he will withdraw the First Division back to the northwest county as a strategic general reserve to add weight to his side in the upcoming war. If he really wants to fight with If the Indians clashed, this hope would naturally come to naught.
However, the demands of the Hyderabad tribes cannot be ignored. Otherwise, once they raise tariffs again, the impact on past commercial interests will be secondary. If the news of their unfaithful words and promises is revealed, it will have a negative impact on their reputation in the mid-continent region. It would be greatly affected, which Wu Feng did not want to see. How could he casually destroy the reputation he had worked so hard to build? You must know that in this world, sometimes a good reputation can be more conducive to the expansion of power, and can also blind the eyes of many people. Wu Feng has a deep understanding of this.
Another important reason is that Liang Chongxin's views in his letter also moved him.
"No matter how good an army performs in training, it is far less useful than the experience gained from experiencing a real war, because the ever-changing emergencies and the test of life and death in a real war are very important to an army. This is something that the officers and soldiers in an army cannot experience in any ordinary training exercises. Without this, this army can never be called a real army."
"Well, this kid Liang Chongxin is really good at making up reasons. He obviously wants to fight, but he still gives me this high-sounding reason, but it still makes some sense." While chewing the words carefully, Wu Feng's mouth He murmured to himself with a smile, "This guy is probably holding it back, so let him operate it properly. I hope he won't disappoint me."
Spreading out the letter paper, Wu Feng took up his pen and wrote six words on the snow-white paper as a reply: "reasonable, well-founded, and measured!" Under the last two words, there were two dots.
