In the early morning, the Imperial Capital Station.
Song Zining got up early and rushed to the military headquarters. Now, with his position, he also has a fairly spacious office in the military headquarters where every inch of land is expensive, and there are about a dozen of various exclusive personnel.
There is at least one advantage of serving in the military department. You can see all kinds of battle reports at the first time, and you can have a grasp of the current situation in the entire Evernight World.
Walking into his office, Song Zining hadn't sat down yet when the adjutant came to announce that someone was paying a visit.
Song Zining ordered the people in the future to lead them to the conference room, and read the morning newspaper for a while before entering the conference room.
Sitting in the conference room was a capable general who looked very young, but in his early thirties. He first gave a military salute, and then said: "My surname is Zhang, and my name is Zhao. I am now serving orders under King Dingxuan."
It turned out to be King Dingxuan's man, Song Zining knew what he was doing, so he gave way and sat down at the main seat.
Zhang Zhao said: "My lord has military affairs, and I still need the assistance of adults."
"What the prince cares about must be a big issue. But it's okay to talk about it."
Zhang Zhao said: "This matter is very important. The prince didn't give me a letter, but just gave me a letter of appointment. It's here, and I invite Song Shuai to have a look."
As he spoke, Zhang Zhao took out an official document and handed it over.
Song Zining first checked that the seal was intact, then opened the envelope, took out the document inside, and read it carefully, Fang nodded and said, "It is a sign of trust to get the letter of appointment written by the prince. Okay, what is the prince's order?"
Zhang Zhao said: "This matter is still related to Qianye. Although Qianye and Yetong died together in the last round, there are still a lot of hands left behind, which need to be cleaned up one by one."
"Which hands need to be cleaned up?"
Zhang Zhao observed Song Zining's expression, and seeing that everything was as usual, Fang said: "My lord said, Qianye is really a great talent, and he has laid down such a huge foundation in a short period of time. Although he has passed away now, the foundation is still there, and he must not be let down." Yong Ye has to go. The first item is the Hall of Valor. This important treasure of the country must be taken back no matter what."
Song Zining said: "The Hall of Valor has always been haunted, and no one can predict its whereabouts. After Qianye left, the Hall of Valor also disappeared. How to find it?"
Zhang Zhao said: "No matter how spiritual the Hall of Valor is, after all, it needs people to control it. As far as I know, there are tens of thousands of soldiers stationed in the Hall of Valor. These people will always return to the ground, and the most likely place to go is Yonglu the city of blue waves."
At this point, he paused, but Song Zining did not respond at all, so Zhang Zhao could only continue: "According to our investigation, the warriors in the Hall of Valor are basically divided into three parts, one part is the native human race of Yonglu, and the other part is the Emerald Sea Werewolf , but the backbone and main force are from the dark fire mercenary group in the neutral land. At present, the main strongman in the Hall of Valor is Carol, and she also comes from the neutral land, from the Temple of Frost Thunder. Therefore, in the matter of capturing the ship, the prince I think, Song Shuai, you have a natural advantage, please Song Shuai put the overall situation first and don't shirk it."
"Is this asking me to go to Yonglu, kill my old subordinates, and take back the Hall of Valor?"
Zhang Zhao heard that the meaning in the words was wrong, and hurriedly said: "Of course they don't have to be killed. If they are willing to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side, and serve the empire, that would be the best, and you can also think about it in terms of rewards."
Song Zining's face darkened suddenly, and he sneered, "Are you talking about what the prince meant, or what you said? If King Dingxuan only asks you to talk about these things, then please go back, and I will meet you later. Ask the prince about this personally! I, Song Zining, am not easy to be bullied!"
Zhang Zhao was startled, got up hastily, and saluted, "Shuai Shuai, calm down! I don't know where I offended you. Your lord has a lot, so don't worry about it."
Song Zining lowered his eyes slightly, and said calmly, "There's nothing to say, so let's leave it at that."
Zhang Zhao hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said: "The prince has ordered you to say something before you agree to it. However, I might as well reveal it in advance. You must not mention it to the prince. In that case, The life of a subordinate official is in danger."
"Say it."
"The prince said that you have done a lot of work on this matter. Afterwards, he will find a way to arrange a new legion number for you to accommodate your old subordinates in the neutral land. All mercenaries, as long as they are human races, can be in the prince's army." Arrange legal status on the territory, and become a citizen of the empire from now on. Qianye can share half of the territory and interests in Yonglu with you. The defense of the Yonglu area, the prince can send his confidants to take charge. When necessary, the prince will also personally take action .”
Qianye's foundation in Yonglu is already no small matter, far above ordinary imperial states. Even if it is half, there are still several provinces, not to mention the prosperity of the city of blue waves. If the group of dragons has no leader, sooner or later it will return to the original state of separatism, and with the peak of the wolf group, maybe the human group will be driven out soon, and only the protection promise of King Dingxuan can take this place.
Song Zining's expression softened a little, and he said, "That's reasonable. Is there any more?"
Zhang Zhao secretly cursed, this Song Zining is so famous, why doesn't he change his face when he sees the benefits? He still had a smile on his face, and at the same time lowered his voice, saying: "But the prince still has a small condition."
Song Zining's expression turned a little ugly, and he said, "If there are any other conditions, let's talk about it."
Zhang Zhao said with a smile: "This can't be called a burden. The prince now has several granddaughters, among which the second princess and the little princess are both deeply loved by the prince, and they are also well-known beauties in the region. Song Shuai is not married yet, if not, get married Dear? It is a beautiful thing that the two families become one family from now on."
Song Zining looked thoughtful, a little moved, and finally shook his head, saying, "I'm just going back to the imperial capital to recuperate for a few days. I'm leaving for the new world tomorrow. I don't have time to deal with this matter."
"There won't be any battles in the Black Sun Valley for the time being, and you will be able to come back soon. You can start this matter then."
Song Zining got up and paced back and forth, saying: "Yonglu is not only aboriginals of humans and werewolves, but there are also peaks of peaks there, which is really tricky. If there is a change, I don't have a single soldier on hand, so I can't deal with it."
Seeing that Song Zining was moved, Zhang Zhao hurriedly said, "Don't worry, my lord, the prince has also made arrangements for this matter. The prince will recruit elite troops and equip them with enough strong ones to serve as your assistants."
Song Zining nodded slowly, and said, "That's great! It's just that these people need to be sent to Yonglu in advance to lurk in order to make things happen at critical moments. If you go with me, the goal is too big. In addition, you must keep secrets! The peak of the peak There are heavy troops stationed in Yonglu, once they find out, it will be terrible."
Zhang Zhao cheered up, and said, "Naturally! Don't worry Shuai Song, I will make arrangements as soon as I report back to the lord! When you come back from the new world, everything will be in order, just waiting for you to go out!"
"Then I'll have to work." Song Zining waved his hand to see off the guests.
Zhang Zhao also knew that this matter was very serious, and before the event was completed, the less contact with Song Zining, the better. Once he had achieved his goal, he stopped staying and left in a hurry.
After sending Zhang Zhao away, Song Zining continued to read the battle report as if nothing had happened, and at the same time ordered someone to call a series of documents from the database. Among them are reports on Qianye, battle reports on other important areas, and many reports on various powerful families.
Judging from his reference list alone, Song Zining was preparing to officially take up an important position in the military. Any commander must be familiar with the military and political affairs of the entire empire.
After reading all the information, Song Zining ordered the car to be ready for travel.
Eternal Night Council.
There are still thirteen seats in the hall where the round table conference is located.
However, unlike in the past, the aura of great figures stirring up each other would fill the hall. This time, although it was unprecedentedly full, almost no one leaked a trace of breath.
The members here are also very different. Except for the lightless king Mei Danzuo of the blood clan and Mosar Lord Sosa of the wolf clan, the rest are all members of the demons.
The bronze throne that originally belonged to the chairman was a mass of darkness, pure darkness. Although no aura could be felt, once someone turned their attention, they would feel trembling as if they had received the baptism of darkness.
On the left hand side of the Demon Emperor is Crassus, the Eternal Flame, followed by the heads of famous families such as Masefield, Abyss of Darkness, and Yelusheng.
On the right hand side of the Demon Emperor is an extremely young-looking great wizard with short pale blond hair. His starting point was the speaker who was still wrapped in a hooded robe, and then there were several famous big prophets of Evernight.
With such an unreasonable seating position, no one showed any strange expressions. Even Medanzuo and Sosa, who usually paid the most attention to their status, kept their faces blank and did not look sideways.
A demon prince stood up, bowed deeply to the demon emperor, and then began to report the recent battle situation.
Unlike the regular reports received by members of the parliament, it is divided into two parts, and part of the participating races and clans are all summarized into a total number.
The other part is divided by region, detailing the number of casualties by clan, and there is also a standard deviation value that has not appeared in any public reports. Judging from the conclusive statement at the end of the report, more than 90 percent of the regions have reached the standard, of which the New World standard is 120 percent.
After the demon prince finished his report, the speaker's voice came out muffled from the hat, "We can start the second phase of the operation, and set up the observation station according to the original plan. For those areas that have not yet reached the standard, the combat power investment will increase by 100% Thirty. The Yelusheng and Wallace families are jointly responsible for the transportation and installation of all exploration facilities, please ask Master Meili to coordinate all the prophets in place."
"Also, adults, please pay attention, don't let the new world's standard value exceed 100." The speaker raised his head and glanced at Patriarch Masefield.
Palikia has not forgotten the death pain of the new generation of Duke Frey of the Masefield family, and he couldn't help turning his head and glaring at Medanzuo: "They are all cunning blood clans, and any battlefield area they dominate, our Casualties were particularly high.”
Mei Danzuo didn't even raise his eyelids, and said, "Lei Nuo is the commander-in-chief of the blood clan, you have already protested to him."
Before Parochia could speak, the speaker had already interjected, "There is already a special arrangement with the King of Blue, so we don't need to discuss it here. But the King of Lightless, how are things going with you?"
Medanzuo said slowly: "The Queen of the Night has gone back to sleep. If there is no accident, for example, someone with authority wakes her up, then she will not pay attention to things outside the traditional territory of the Paz family."
Of course, this authoritative person refers to the existing second-generation ancestor of the blood race. There are four currently in the active period, the blue king Reynolds, the lightless king Medanzo, the fire crown Habs, and the dark gospel Howard.
However, Howard and Medanzo are feuds. After waking up, he only showed his face once and did not participate in any public activities. He disappeared from everyone's sight. The only thing that is certain is that he has never left the Twilight Continent.
The speaker pondered for a while, and said: "The crown of fire..." He looked at the demon emperor sitting above.
The Demon Emperor said: "I will deal with matters related to him. You should avoid Spock's clan castle."
The speaker was slightly taken aback, this was not in line with the original plan, but he immediately responded: "Yes."
But Mei Danzuo's face didn't change, but the five fingers in his sleeve were bent, and then he felt a will projected over him, sweeping across him. Mei Danzuo remained motionless, not even the slightest fluctuation in the blood core, but he knew in his heart that it was a warning from the Demon Emperor.
"The last is the pupil of control and the pupil of destruction." The speaker paused after saying this.
Meri, the demon prophecy master, stood up, bowed to the demon emperor, and said, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I can't see their traces." He looked at Prattik on the demon emperor's right, and said: "Perhaps the little Highness of the Glorious Nightmare can..."
The Demon Emperor said: "Prettik does not participate in any camp activities."
He said this resolutely, and Meili immediately said: "Yes, Your Majesty, then I will discuss the countermeasures with my colleagues."
The Demon Emperor said: "No need, it's normal that you can't see the human race's secret technique and the blood race's secret technique."
Naturally, no one doubted the Demon Emperor's words, and the eyes of several people on the table focused on Mei Danzuo, who lowered his eyes and folded his sleeves, as if he hadn't heard anything.
But Prattik said thoughtfully: "Dear Your Majesty, what you mean is that the Black Sun Valley has been beaten like that, but after the results come out, there are people from the human race who want to save Qianye, and people from the blood race who want to save Qianye." Rescue Yetong? This game of Duizi is really interesting."
The Demon Emperor said: "Short-lived species are complex and contradictory creatures, and blood races have many similarities with them."
Prattik was eager to try, "Maybe I can try a little bit."
The Demon Emperor said: "As long as the influence of Lin Xitang's Heaven's Secret Art has not completely disappeared from this world, you should be honest and don't touch things on Liming's side."
There was no sound at the round table. This was the first time Lin Xitang's name was clearly mentioned in the hall of the Eternal Night Council after the Battle of Fulu.
Previously, Habs, as the person in charge of the floating land in the final stage, has been unable to report his injuries. Only the tragic casualties of the sword-wielding guardian of the black sun and the transfer of the outer space fleet in the final stage, the impeachment received by the Eternal Night Council from all races can bury him.
However, the last of these impeachments could not be brought up for discussion. The Demon Emperor's repressive attitude was crucial. The Holy Mountain Supreme obviously didn't want to hear about that battle. But today he himself said it clearly.
The speaker coughed lightly and said, "Actually, we have made some hypothetical plans regarding how to deal with His Excellency Marshal Lin's death."
"One is to directly start from the center of Daqin. From our existing intelligence analysis, it is very likely that we can use this to provoke conflicts between their emperor and ministers. This method is more difficult at first, because it needs to find the right entry point , otherwise the whole thing may not start at all, but then there is no need for too much investment, and the internal situation of Daqin will naturally push things to develop on its own. Of course, correspondingly, we have no control over the ending. Maybe we can make another secret Maybe it’s just like last time the Green Blood Project didn’t succeed in the end.”
"The other way is to start with the Western Land War Zone where he worked, oh, it's the Fenghuo Continent. The situation there is complicated. The Zhao family of the empire, the military department, and the dissidents of the empire occupy the land of the two provinces. This method The beginning is relatively simple. There are many natural opponents among those types of people. It only needs to provide a little talk, and those who are interested will know how to use it. Especially Xilu is the farthest from the center of the empire, and there is more time and space for rumors to form. Opposition."
Speaking of this, the speaker glanced at the Demon Emperor, saw that the holy mountain had not moved at all, and continued: "The first method requires a relatively mature insider line of the empire, King Wuguang, how are your connections now? gone?"
Mei Danzuo said indifferently: "After the bloody funeral, the Great Qin Emperor was purged, and there was basically nothing left, except that some outside informants were relocated to remote areas by the entire family."
The speaker nodded and said: "Actually, for the second method, we have already done a stress test. We provided some vague statements about Your Excellency Marshal to the related parties of Daqin, and the upper echelons of the empire were very vigilant. It’s hard to tell if they sensed something was wrong, or if they had been pressured. And among those imperial dissidents, there was a better response, as if they were happy to get some bad news about the oppressors.”
The speaker glanced at the Demon Emperor again, and at this time he got an answer.
The Demon Emperor said: "Okay, let's do it like this. When you set up the observation station on Fenghuo Continent, you continue your tests."
"Yes." The speaker looked around the round table and said, "Then if you don't have any problems, we will enter the second stage after returning."
Sosa, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke, "What did Yong Lu say?"
The speaker said: "That place is not in our observatory plan."
Sousa said slowly: "That is to say, I can handle it by myself?"
The Demon Emperor suddenly said: "The top of the peaks no longer has the advantage of the storm, so I hope that there will be no big disturbances in those insignificant places."
Sosa nodded, still slowly said: "Of course, as you wish."
At the end of the meeting, everyone saluted the Demon Emperor and then left one after another. In the end, only the speaker, Prattyk and Master Meri were left.
The speaker hesitated for a moment, obviously trying to organize his words, and said after a while: "Your Majesty, what should we do with the part of the track that was originally planned to be searched by His Excellency Marshal Lin?" He always used honorifics when addressing Lin Xitang.
The Demon Emperor was silent for a while, and slowly said: "It's just adding a control group to the Liming pedigree. Clearing up a few more human settlements can also collect data."
For a while, the other three didn't speak. If the general population is used as the control group, it is not a small number that needs to be cleaned up. Moreover, Lin Xitang's role was not just a control group. But no one raised any objections.
Master Meili first said: "I will report the changes to the plan to His Royal Highness Anwen when I get back, and bring out the revised results as soon as possible."
The speaker also nodded and said: "Then I will go to arrange and increase the combat readiness first."
After the chairman and Master Meili left, the Demon Emperor smiled lightly and said, "Only he cares about those ants. If we just clean up a little bit more, so as not to disturb his rest, it's still worth it, isn't it?"
Prattik covered his eyes with his hands, and leaned his head back on the chair. After a while, he said helplessly: "This premise is that your Excellency has not left behind."
So things will go back to the original point, and the fate connection related to Lin Xitang can only get the answer from Lin Xitang.
The Demon Emperor's tone was very gentle from the beginning to the end, "Then I can only hope that Habs will figure it out sooner."
Prattik's heart skipped a beat suddenly, his hands and feet were cold, but he didn't move, still maintaining that lazy posture.
