But there must be a certain degree of control. The caravan in Northern Luzon must not be moved. If Li Wufeng finds an excuse to stir up trouble, the gain will outweigh the loss. However, the group of people in Green Sea Swamp can consider it, but will it offend the other party? I heard that those bumpkins have also formed a self-defense force of some kind. I wonder how strong the combat effectiveness is
Seeing the uncertain expression on the old man's fat face, the young man did not dare to say anything and patiently waited for his uncle's decision.
"Where did you get this news?" the old man suddenly asked.
The young man was stunned, and then replied: "This news is absolutely reliable"
"Stop talking, let me ask you where the news came from?" The old man's eyes were fixed on the young man's face, which looked a little drunk.
Seeing that he could not hide it from this uncle who knew him well, the young man grinned awkwardly and said: "Uncle, this is the news I got from the Shaqeli brothers. They have reliable people over there, but they We don’t have enough power, so we have to invite us ``````"
"Huh! Go ahead if you want to die! Don't think that you are acting unscrupulously without any reaction. I'm afraid you don't even know that someone has tricked you!" The old man's face was gloomy, and he slowly raised his head to look up at the splendidly decorated roof, as if he was thinking about it. What.
"No, you are too worried, uncle. There is a servant woman in the Shacher family who has close contacts with people from the other family and is already talking about marriage. This is what they finally found out from the woman's mouth. It's coming." The young man hurriedly revealed the source of the clue.
"Laval, you are not young anymore. The next generation of the De La family is counting on you. Uncle is old. All this will be yours from now on. In the future, you should stay less with those guys and do more serious things. That's the right way." The old man seemed not to have heard the young man's words, and said expressionlessly.
"Uncle!" the young man said anxiously.
"That's enough! You go down first!" A look of anger flashed across the old man's face, and his pair of dim old eyes suddenly became sharp.
The young man wanted to defend himself, but after seeing the old man's expression, he finally bowed and left.
The room was silent for a moment. A beautiful velvet tapestry in the corner was gently lifted, and a rickety old man walked out. His thin figure looked as if the wind could blow him down, but the pair of eyes on his wrinkled face The eyes that flashed with divine light were something that no one dared to underestimate.
"Master." The rickety old man bowed slightly.
"Well, you heard everything just now. What do you think?" The fat old man didn't go around the topic and went straight to the topic.
"That depends on what you think, sir." The rickety old man leaned forward and said.
"What do you say?" The fat old man remained calm.
"The five tribes of Green Sea Swamp have always claimed that they are under the jurisdiction of Northern Luzon. Li Wufeng also submitted a letter of negotiation to the chief. Although the chief did not recognize their jurisdiction over the five tribes, he was not willing to break up with the other party over this matter. So we keep talking like this. At present, a fortress has been built in the border area. It is obviously to clarify the ownership of the surrounding areas and ethnic groups. If we take action, it is very likely to provoke a conflict between the two sides." The rickety old man answered in a neither humble nor overbearing manner. road.
"In your opinion, you don't agree?" The fat old man's expression changed, as if he wanted to say something else, but he endured it.
"That's not entirely true. The old servant also knows a little bit about the difficulties that the master is currently facing. What Master Laval just said makes sense. There are many people in the clan who are dissatisfied with the master now, especially since we have not had any extra income in recent times. Even The chief is also a little unhappy. If this continues, your status will be affected. In addition, the people below cannot think of the long term. They only know that their lives are not as good as before. If this continues, the master's control over them will also be weakened. "The rickety old man replied unhurriedly.
"Oh? But as you just said, Li Wufeng is not easy to mess with. Once there is a conflict, he will give someone a thumbs up. By then, I'm afraid no one will speak for us." The fat old man was silent for a while before spitting out. a few words.
"It depends on how to operate it. According to our information, the five tribes of the Green Sea Swamp have many rare treasures during this celebration. I heard that one of the cloud clams from the depths of the swamp was also caught. This is It's a rare item that has never been seen in recent decades. I heard that the chief has been longing for that thing for a long time. If the chief can be persuaded, the risk of this matter will be reduced by half. In addition, the old slave sees that. Although Li Wufeng attaches great importance to the five Green Sea tribes, he is not willing to quarrel with us because of them. In the past few times, he only sent letters of negotiation and did not do anything excessive. There are also old slaves who have received the news, like the Tanghe people There doesn't seem to be peace in his own territory. Li Wufeng is having a very unhappy time with the Kaman and Hesi Luo people to the north of him. I guess he doesn't have too much energy to take care of our affairs now. Take a step back. , It’s really a shame, if we don’t accompany you, it will only hurt your face, it has nothing to do with the overall situation, I’m afraid they won’t go to war at this time.” The rickety old man peeled off the cocoon step by step, analyzing the gains and losses of the action.
The words of the rickety old man were well-founded and indeed very tempting. The fat old man was moved, but he was cautious by nature and still had not made a conclusion: "Well, it makes sense, but we can't be overly optimistic. This guy Li Wufeng is different from ordinary people. He People never act according to common sense. I think it’s better to be careful and let people find out. Anyway, there is still plenty of time. In addition, I can also understand the situation of their self-defense force. Since the two Shaqery brothers are also involved If you come in, let’s include their family, everyone will share the blessings, but of course everyone must also bear the risks.”
Even the rickety old man who had been expressionless couldn't help but nod in agreement after saying this. Jiang is very old, and his master is really unusually thoughtful. It is not an exaggeration to say that there is no leakage.
When the fat old man's bloated body disappeared outside the living room, the tall and thin young man who had been hiding in the distance rushed over quickly, "How about it, Jana, does my uncle agree?"
"Master, don't be too impatient. The master has his own ideas. But looking at this situation, I'm afraid I have to think about it before making a decision." A sinister smile flashed in the eyes of the rickety old man, and he was pleasant. advised.
"Hey, my uncle is getting old and confused. The older he gets, the more timid he becomes. If this continues, our Della family will fall into decline sooner or later." The young man was a little frustrated, with a blue face but a look of unwillingness.
"Young master, don't be too disappointed. From my perspective, it's a good thing for you to be cautious. Things must be fully calculated before taking action. Young master, just wait patiently." The rickety old man said with a slight smile.
"That's all we have to do." The young man nodded and turned to leave, "I'd like to ask Canaba to take more trouble."
"Young Master, your words are serious. As a servant of the Dera family, Jana will naturally go all out." The rickety old man bowed slightly and replied respectfully.
The young man turned away with satisfaction, but did not notice a chilling and sinister smile on the old man's withered face behind him.
In order to avoid influence, the review of the combat effectiveness of the Guards Division was very low-key. The review place was placed on the western plain of Qingyang, about a hundred miles away from the border of Gaochang Kingdom in the Western Regions. According to Wu Feng's instructions and in line with the standard of erring on the side of shortage rather than waste, although Xiao Tang had given the green light to fund the formation of this army, Song Tianxiong kept Wu Feng's instructions in mind and was even more strict in the selection of soldiers. So far, only four regiments have been built. The infantry were selected from the Gaoyue clan and experienced veterans, while the cavalry had higher requirements. Many veterans who were originally in the Guards Regiment failed to enter the cavalry regiment because here, the requirements for riding skills were not enough. Many people are put off.
After reviewing the Guards Division's horse-infantry mixed coordination drill, Wu Feng was very satisfied with Song Tianxiong's training. He was able to train a unit so well in more than half a year. Wu Feng felt deeply that he had not chosen the wrong person. The soldiers of the Guards Regiment turned out to be the essence of Wu Feng's command. Whether it was individual combat or group combat, they were outstanding under Wu Feng. After the expansion, Song Tianxiong did not relax. He knew that a division and a regiment were completely They are two different concepts. It is not possible to reach the same level by expanding some soldiers and retraining them, especially with the addition of two separate cavalry regiments. There are still many difficulties and problems that need to be solved. Fortunately, he himself is fully prepared. In addition to the combat readiness department providing him with the most sophisticated equipment and facilities, hard training and strict management are what create this steel division. The most important factor.
Accompanying Wu Feng during his inspection of the Guards Division, in addition to Xiao Tang and the newly appointed Director of the War Preparedness Department, Rao, was also his fiancée, Situ Yutang, the Seventeenth Princess of the Empire. Originally, Wu Feng had no intention of letting his so-called fiancée participate in these activities. Situ Yutang's actions had aroused Wu Feng's wariness, but Xiao Tang believed that considering the relationship with the central government of the empire, if he blindly ignored the princess , I am afraid it will arouse the doubts of the central government of the empire. At the moment, this review is just an ordinary event. There is no need to be too secretive, and there is no need to worry about the impact. It is best to allow Her Royal Highness the Princess to participate. This will not only reassure the spies planted by the empire in the northwest, It can also show the close love between Lord Jiedushi and His Royal Highness the Princess.
Xiao Tang's last words made Wu Feng laugh and cry, but he still accepted Xiao Tang's opinion. After all, he was already engaged to Situ Yutang. If nothing unexpected happened, maybe she would become his head wife in the near future, and he would be in Li Yu's favor. Qing should also show to the outside world, especially the military and civilians in the northwest, the close relationship with the central government of the empire.
When Situ Yutang appeared in front of the people of Qingyang, holding Wufeng's hand and riding on the extended carriage representing the status of the Northwest Military and Political Governor, the entire Qingyang City almost went crazy. Her Royal Highness the Princess's graceful and luxurious temperament made the crowds welcome her. The people couldn't help but feel sincerely excited that their beloved parents could have such a noble, royal blood and beautiful and charming woman as their wife. Seeing the people cheering from the bottom of their hearts, the two people sitting there were excited. The mood is very different.
