Qianye asked casually, and learned that Wei Bainian sent personal guards to keep an eye on his whereabouts, so he was able to find him as soon as he stepped into the gate of the mercenary group. Qianye's heart skipped a beat, thinking of Song Zining's news about the all-out war between the Wei family and the dark race in the Far East, it seems that the power in Heiliu City will undergo major changes.
When Qianye rushed to the headquarters of the Seventh Division, he found that Wei Bainian's guards were all rushing in and out, and an open space in the building was completely occupied, and the guards were packing their luggage.
Wei Bainian stood in front of the building door waiting for Qianye, greeted him to the study, ordered someone to bring tea in, and then closed the door to prepare for a long talk.
After exchanging a few words with Wei Bainian, Qianye asked directly, "General Wei, are you leaving?"
Wei Bainian sighed, and said, "The Far East Province and the dark race are in full-scale war."
Qianye had already heard a few words from Song Zining, and immediately asked, "How is your son?"
"The son was also in the army at the time, and returned home with a serious injury. However, Qiyang is full of talent. Not only has Qianzhongshan reached the seventh level, but he has also awakened the tyrannical ability of 'super recovery'. No matter how serious the injury is, as long as he does not die on the spot, he can recover Come here, and the speed of recovery is ten times faster than ordinary people." Speaking of Wei Potian, Wei Bainian's tone was full of appreciation.
Qianye couldn't help but marvel at Wei Potian's abnormal ability. Qianzhongshan is known as the first defense, and with a super recovery, the Wei family's son is really developing in the direction of invulnerability.
Then Wei Bainian talked about the general trend of the Far East province.
It turned out that the reason for this battle was that a general of the Wei family had won many battles recently. He became proud and underestimated the enemy. He swung his army straight into the dark country without knowing it. In a big battle, more than half of the main force of the Wei family was lost, and they retreated to the Far East Province in embarrassment.
Unexpectedly, the dark race did not stop there. They seemed to have the intention of launching a war, and took advantage of this opportunity to pursue them all the way, until they were turned away by the natural fortress outside the Yumen Pass.
Now the dark race army facing outside the Yumen Pass has multiplied, and it is only because of the fortress that chokes the passage into the Far East Province that the situation is barely maintained. The situation in other directions of the Far East Front was also tense. The Wei family was recalling the generals stationed in various enclaves, and Wei Bainian had always been known for his good defense. After returning this time, he had decided to stay and guard the Yumen Fortress. This is the top priority.
How long the war in the Far East Province will last, no one can tell now. This is a battle of life and death, and the Wei family is shrinking in an all-round way. Except for a few most important enclaves, all other soldiers must be transferred back to their home. Heiliu City was originally a tasteless area for the Wei family, and Wei Bainian was one of the most powerful generals in the family, so it was inevitable that they would be included in the disarmed area.
The Wei family has sent an elder-level deacon with a foreign surname to contact the expeditionary army headquarters, and the expeditionary army will assign another division commander to take over the seventh division.
After explaining the cause and effect, Wei Bainian asked meaningfully: "After I leave, what are your plans?"
Qianye's heart moved, and he asked: "What is the attitude of the expeditionary army headquarters to this matter? Can we now know which general will come to take over the Seventh Division?"
Wei Bainian smiled slightly, Qianye's two questions hit the nail on the head. Due to the Wu Zhengnan incident, the relationship between the expeditionary army headquarters and the Wei family was always somewhat bumpy, and the new division commander might not have a good impression of Qianye. For a mercenary regiment, if it confronts the resident expeditionary force, not to mention future development, even survival will be a problem.
"The attitude of the expeditionary army headquarters is surprisingly good. On the face of it, it is because the Far East Province is in an all-out war with the dark race, and they don't want to be too obvious, so that they will be warned by the Imperial Army. In fact, I heard that There is a family in the empire who wants to extend a hand to the Eternal Night Continent, so they sent their children to expand the territory, and there just happened to be such a ready-made opportunity."
Qianye frowned, this news is not good or bad. If the Expeditionary Army takes the interests of face into account and realizes a peaceful handover with the Wei family, it will certainly help to maintain the stability of the Heiliu City area, but the impact on Qianye and the Dark Fire Mercenary Corps is hard to say.
Moreover, the new division commanders come from a family background, which is definitely very different from the many grassroots division commanders in the expeditionary force who have built their own world by themselves, and their behavior style is even more unpredictable.
"Do you know which family it is?"
"The Dong family in Surabaya." Wei Bainian thought for a while, and added: "His family's title is county uncle."
Qianye had no impression of this family at all, but when he heard the word "Junbo", he knew that it was a family whose strength was slightly lower in the middle class. The prefect's fiefdom needs to be kept above a large county, and there is a risk of attack, no wonder he is eager to expand the territory, and even set his mind on the Eternal Night Continent.
Wei Bainian said: "I will stay for about fifteen more days. When I go back this time, I will take everyone away. So, if you have any ideas, you should make plans early."
Qianye nodded, Wei Bainian's words meant that the Wei family's forces would be completely withdrawn from the Heiliu City war zone.
However, Qianye didn't have any ideas for the time being. If he was already a general, he could still consider competing for the position of commander of the Seventh Division, but now there is almost no time. The leader of a division must be a warrior, which has been a rigid standard for the imperial military for thousands of years. Although Qianye's current combat power has already caught up with the general, but he is not a real general after all.
In fact, how Qianye will respond in the future will largely depend on the attitude of this new teacher who has never met before.
Qianye bid farewell to Wei Bainian with a heavy heart, and returned to the mercenary regiment's garrison.
The station is very lively at the moment, and a long line of trucks is slowly driving in. These vehicles are all the standard equipment of the main army of the empire. Two thick exhaust pipes are erected high behind the front of the car. Each car has a large-caliber heavy machine gun on the roof. The mighty appearance is unforgettable.
Both sides of the road are already crowded with onlookers, and more people are coming. These people who have spent more than half of their lives in Yongye, have they ever had the opportunity to see such a large number of heavy-duty trucks made by the main army of the empire
At the moment, half of the trucks are loaded with military containers, and the other half are loaded with heavily armed soldiers. These fighters are sturdy in appearance and well equipped, and they are also at the level of the main army. In contrast, the expeditionary army became beggars, and those mercenaries, hunters, and adventurers who spent most of their lives in the eternal night were even worse than beggars.
Song Hu got the news a long time ago, and immediately came out to welcome him.
A big black-faced man jumped off the leading truck, strode up to Song Hu, and said, "Ningyuan Heavy Industry Internal Guard, the third special reinforcement company, come to report!"
Song Hu nodded and pointed to the side, "That camp is where you are stationed. Vehicles are parked in the parking lot of the side yard. Heavy equipment is checked and put into storage, and light equipment is carried with you."
"Yes, sir!" The black-faced company commander gave a military salute to Song Hu, and then proceeded to arrange for the stationing. The soldiers from Ningyuan Heavy Industry quickly got out of the car, moved the equipment, and arranged the camp. Everything was in order. During the whole process, except for the necessary orders and inquiries, no one chatted.
This company was sent by Song Zining to escort the Song Clan's exam rewards, and it was also Song Zining's first investment in the Dark Fire Mercenary Group. After completing the escort and delivery of armaments, they will be incorporated into the Dark Fire Mercenary Group on the spot. This company will be worth half of the shares of the Darkfire Mercenary Corps.
In fact, in terms of combat power, the current special company is entirely possible to defeat the entire Dark Fire on the battlefield, of course, if Qianye does not go into battle. Therefore, if outsiders know the converted price, they will probably think that Song Zining has suffered a big loss, and even Qianye thinks so.
However, Song Zining didn't calculate like this. He believed that Qianye alone was equivalent to a division, and in the future it would be equivalent to an army group, or even worse. In this way, he still took advantage of it.
While the inner guards of Ningyuan Heavy Industry were busy, there were other people in the garrison watching their actions. Apart from the old team of Blood Seeds rescued by Qianye, Dark Fire had just annexed two nearby mercenary groups. .
The faces of several senior executives of the former mercenary regiment were very ugly at this moment. They compared it in their hearts, and then found that even if they pulled out four or five hundred soldiers, they would be able to fight against the special reinforcement company with more than one hundred people in front of them. I'm afraid they will all be beaten to pieces. Not to mention the heavy weapons that were constantly removed from the car, the number was so large that it made one's scalp tingle.
At this moment, even if the top executives of the original mercenary group still had some small thoughts in their hearts, they all disappeared.
Qianye returned to the dark fire station with a heavy heart. What he saw was such a lively scene, and he couldn't help but cheer up his depressed mood. In Qianye and Song Zining's plan, the immediate expansion is just the beginning.
In the next period of time, Song Zining will recruit at least 500 soldiers in the name of Ningyuan Heavy Industry, organize them into a battalion, and join the Dark Fire Mercenary Group again. This kind of personnel reorganization and equipment configuration will continue, and finally will reach the strength of a regiment of the main force of the empire, as the start of their westward plan.
After Qianye met Song Hu and the black-faced company commander Duan Hao, he dealt with the affairs of the mercenary regiment for a while, then rubbed his tired eyes and stood in front of the map, looking at the westward routes in his mind, repeatedly Weigh the comparison.
However, in making such a grand plan, neither route is foolproof, and one of the most important problems is the instability of the rear. A new Seventh Division with an unclear attitude is always a hidden danger. Qianye can't guarantee that when he enters the dark country and expands the territory, whether his old nest will be copied by the expeditionary army.
Qianye thought about it for a long time, and there was no better way, unless the dark fire expanded again, and he could leave enough troops while advancing westward to ensure that the lair would not be copied.
But this approach is not feasible. On the one hand, Qianye's financial resources have reached the upper limit, and the expansion is too fast and there are not enough troops to fight to run in. On the contrary, the overall combat power will decline. In addition, it is almost obvious that they will suffer a big loss in the civil war with the expeditionary force in the defense zone of the Seventh Division.
So continue to defend
Qianye thought about it, and also denied this option. After a round of violent expansion, taking on some missions to defend small towns in the Heiliu City defense area and its surrounding areas, it is already difficult to feed a dark fire of this scale. If Qianye can get half of the war zone, it is almost the same, and then the problem returns to the original point, with the seventh division, how can it be possible for him to share so many resources
Although Qianye hesitated for a few days, the expansion of the dark fire is still proceeding step by step.
Song Hu was so busy that he had to redeploy officers, reorganize troops, manage base construction, and distract himself from scouting the westward route. Of course, he also seized Ah Qi Ah Jiu, the Wu brothers and sisters, and other outstanding fighters from the seeds to share the heavy responsibility. This is also an opportunity to cultivate new blood for the mercenary group.
But Qianye spends most of his time in cultivation. He has just been promoted to level nine and needs to consolidate his foundation. The rest of the time is spent thinking about the future action plan and discussing some ideas with Song Zining through letters.
During these relatively peaceful days, a small group of travel-worn adventurers came to Heiliu City, begging to see Qianye.
