An unprecedented atmosphere filled the door of the conference room.
Li Tianlan's voice was very soft and gentle, but his voice fell clearly in everyone's ears. It sounded elegant, but extremely ferocious.
Never die.
what.
In the solemn and solemn Hidden Dragon Sea, it is not uncommon for giants to argue or even quarrel. However, such sharp words still severely stimulated the nerves of all the senior officials in Central Continent. Many people can't even remember how many years ago. I have never heard such a word.
The old man's face suddenly turned red, and a pair of eyeballs almost protruded from his dry eye sockets, looking extremely fierce.
The crutch in his hand was still pointed at Li Tianlan, and his voice was violent: "Are you saying it again?!"
Li Tianlan didn't even look at him.
There was a faint smile on his calm face, but the madness was burning in his heart like wildfire, and dangerous temperatures filled the conference room around Hidden Dragon Sea, almost everywhere.
Many people have met Li Tianlan.
But when it comes to understanding him, not many people understand him.
But even so, at this moment, seeing Li Tianlan's smile, everyone still felt a strong sense of unfamiliarity in their hearts.
They don't understand this young man who may be their equal after today.
But he was keenly aware that he was different from before.
Completely different.
"Isn't there anyone who can introduce me to me?"
Li Tianlan's voice was filled with a smile: "The unknown person offended the Marshal of Zhongzhou, do you really think that I dare not kill anyone?"
"Snapped!"
A subtle sword intent suddenly appeared at the front end of the crutch.
The wooden crutch suddenly shattered.
The sword energy condensed, and before it was about to envelope the old man, a hand gently supported the old man and led him to take a step back.
"boom!"
In the dull sound, the floor where the old man was standing was completely shattered.
The invisible sword energy spread slowly and unhurriedly to the left and right for a distance of nearly twenty meters, all the way to the conference room. The precious floor was in pieces and looked ugly.
Everyone was stunned.
No one thought that Li Tianlan would actually take action.
There is no doubt that if the old man had retreated even one second late, his body would have been chopped into countless pieces by this sword intent.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, this place may have been stained with blood, but was it responsible for human lives? This has never happened before.
Everyone is looking at Li Tianlan.
Li Tianlan's expression was calm and lazy, and the faint smile became more and more indifferent, but behind the indifference, the trace of madness began to gradually become obvious.
"Why is Your Highness so angry?"
Ye Dongsheng stood beside the old man and looked at Li Tianlan.
There was no helplessness, no bitter smile, no anger on his expression, only seriousness.
Many times, seriousness means fear.
In terms of force, he is not Li Tianlan's opponent, but this does not mean that Ye Dongsheng will be afraid of him.
But now standing in front of Li Tianlan, Ye Dongsheng really felt the danger.
Li Tianlan looked as calm as a madman.
Li Tianlan stared at Ye Dongsheng quietly. He didn't know how long it took. He touched his nose and smiled: "Shuai Ye, please introduce me?"
"This is my teacher."
Ye Dongsheng said seriously: "Old Marshal Tang Wansen of Central Continent."
Li Tianlan tilted his head, looked at the old man, and said oh.
The name Tang Wansen is not unfamiliar to him. Tang is originally from a wealthy Youzhou family. Although not as good as the Bai family, he is an important part of the Southeast Group in building the Youzhou context. Tang Wansen was a member of the Central Continent and the deputy minister of the military more than 20 years ago. , his position is roughly equivalent to that of Ye Dongsheng today. He has a fiery temper and even once contradicted Li Honghe in public. This was still a period when the Li family and the Wang family in Beihai were close. In his era, he could indeed be regarded as a man of one word. A big shot in Jiuding.
Li Tianlan smiled.
"Where did an old guy who had retired for more than ten years get the courage to question me as to whether I am worthy of the rank of marshal?"
His eyes shifted from Tang Wansen to Ye Dongsheng: "I will write this down."
At that moment, countless turbulent malice and murderous intentions in the air rushed towards his face without concealment, and Ye Dongsheng could hardly breathe.
Li Tianlan turned around, nodded at the several council members beside him, and walked into the conference room.
There were also members chatting in the conference room.
Councilor Zhong Yongming from Huating was whispering something to a certain deputy prime minister in the cabinet. When he saw Li Tianlan coming in, he narrowed his eyes with a cold expression.
Several years have passed since then.
But he still remembers how miserable his son looked when he died in the hospital.
Li Tianlan glanced at him casually, found a corner and sat down without saying anything.
Bai Zhanfang and Wu Zhengmin walked in.
The two of them glanced at Li Tianlan.
Li Tianlan shook his head with firm eyes.
The two old men, who had truly dominated the Central Continent all their lives, sat down side by side calmly.
More and more people entered the conference room.
The secretary came in and filled the cups of tea for the congressmen present.
A sweet-looking female secretary who was less than thirty years old kept looking at Li Tianlan curiously until the tea overflowed and flowed out of the teacup. She was slightly startled and just about to apologize in the panic, Li Tianlan's palm had stopped moving. The sound brushed across the table.
The flowing tea turned to ice, the sparks flickered for a moment, and everything disappeared.
Li Tianlan smiled and waved to his secretary, and casually glanced at the clock on the wall.
Nine o'clock in the morning.
Zhongzhou President Li Huacheng walked into the conference room.
Everyone stood up at the same time.
Li Huacheng walked to the center and sat down, nodded and said, "Everyone, sit down."
Li Tianlan sat down silently, looking at the empty seat opposite Li Huacheng, silent.
Li Huacheng picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, waving his secretary to leave. After everyone left, he put down the teacup and said calmly: "Everyone has seen the topics of the meeting in advance. The chaos in Eastern Europe seems to be over. In fact, It’s just that there is less fighting. The general situation has been set, but it has not completely calmed down. Snow Country and the five Eastern European countries are all involved. If you have any ideas, you can speak freely. "
The conference room was quiet for a moment.
Li Tianlan silently picked up the tea cup.
Li Huacheng looked at the expressions of everyone in his sight.
He waited for a while, and when no one spoke, he took the initiative and said, "Tianlan, how is the situation in the five Eastern European countries?"
"Everything is under control."
Li Tianlan put down the teacup.
Everyone's eyes were focused.
Twenty-two years old.
First time sitting
In the conference room at the center of power in Central Continent, he was in an extremely calm mood: "At present, the interest groups in Eastern Europe have an urgent desire to cooperate with Central Continent. After the Ulan Country agreement is signed, I will urge the Ulan Country as soon as possible. The implementation of the agreement is currently in a hurry, and I don’t have all the details yet. I will report to the president separately when Ulan State compiles detailed information.”
Li Huacheng nodded and said yes.
"Since Li Shuai doesn't have all the details, why does he say everything is under control?"
A voice suddenly came to mind, gentle but strong.
Not far from Li Tianlan, an old man with gray hair turned his head and looked at Li Tianlan with piercing eyes and great pressure: "Are you really sure that everything in the five Eastern European countries is under your control?"
No one spoke.
Unlike Tang Wansen, although the comrade in front of him is also a retired veteran, his every word and deed has an absolutely strong weight.
Marshal Qi Beicang, former executive minister of the Military Department of Zhongzhou.
This is the top leader of the special operations group. He has just retired from this world for more than two years, and Dongcheng Wudi has not completely eliminated his influence in the military.
Qi Beicang.
Don Wansen.
There is another former military boss in Zhongzhou, Liu Yu.
These three are from the Southeast Group, the Special Warfare Group and the Prince Group. They are also the three old comrades invited to attend the meeting today.
From this point alone, we can see the weakness of the academic faction in the military and special warfare fields. When discussing the situation in the dark world of Eastern Europe today, the academic faction basically cannot choose any old comrades who can speak well. Come.
Li Tianlan glanced at Qi Beicang quietly.
He reached out and tapped the table gently: "I'm sure."
"Although it is not yet possible to grasp the detailed situation of the five Eastern European countries, there will be no variables in a large area. I can control the five Eastern European countries, especially the Ulan country. As long as I can control Prime Minister Rick, that is enough."
His voice was calm and confident.
"Prime Minister Rick"
Li Huacheng sighed softly: "When I visited Ulan Country this time, Prime Minister Rick's governing ideas are very friendly to Zhongzhou and very sincere."
Li Tianlan glanced at him and said nothing.
Li Huacheng was vouching for him, confirming that he could control Rick.
From the moment he came in, Li Tianlan noticed that although Li Huacheng was smiling, the look deep in his eyes was somewhat gloomy.
The rise of the academic faction is too short. If they want to break out and officially enter the ranks of Central Continent's top groups, they will have to look at Li Huacheng's performance in the next few years. The chaos in Eastern Europe is such a big piece of cake, and the Snow Country's position is unclear. The academic faction can only How much he hopes to get from the five Eastern European countries depends on Li Tianlan's attitude. Therefore, no matter how subtle the relationship between Li Tianlan and the academic group is after joining the wealthy group, at least in the short term, both parties are still in the honeymoon period.
Qi Beicang glanced at Li Huacheng, picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and stopped talking.
"Tianlan, you are representing Eastern Europe in front of Central Continent this time. Comrades don't understand many situations as well as you. If you have any ideas, just ask and we can discuss them together."
In the absence of Dongcheng Wudi, Zou Mulin, the only giant of the wealthy group, said calmly.
Li Tianlan's eyes flickered and he quietly scanned everyone in the conference room.
The giants and congressmen in the conference room were also looking at him, with admiration, amusement, ridicule, and malice in their eyes.
Li Tianlan smiled.
The wild fire hidden in his heart gradually burned.
"I do have an idea."
Li Tianlan looked at Li Huacheng calmly.
Li Huacheng nodded, his smile unchanged.
"Mr. President, fellow comrades, in this chaos in Eastern Europe, the bravery of the Snow Dance Corps is obvious to all, and the Snow Dance Corps is also the cornerstone force that stabilizes the five Eastern European countries. However, in the chaos, the Snow Dance Corps also suffered heavy losses. I suggest that the Snow Dance Corps expand its establishment and establish a large-scale regiment in Eastern Europe with a size of about 100,000 people, to help each other with the Arctic Ocean Command, and to completely stabilize the entire Eastern Europe."
While countless people were dumbfounded, Li Tianlan looked calm: "I have had preliminary communication with Minister Dongcheng about this matter. The minister agreed in principle to my proposal and initially came up with a plan to expand the Xuewu Legion. The new Xuewu The legion will be about 100,000 people. Elites will be drawn from the air force, navy, and border corps to form a large comprehensive legion. In the long run, the new Snow Dance Legion will definitely play a vital role in the stability of Eastern Europe. .”
Everyone was confused.
Even Li Huacheng looked at Li Tianlan and didn't say anything for a long time.
Before today, countless people in the Prince Group, the Special Operations Group, and the Southeast Group were discussing the complete abolition of the Snow Dance Corps' establishment. The first step to withdraw the wounded members of the Snow Dance Corps from Eastern Europe was a seemingly natural test, and the three major groups joined forces. , it is impossible for the academic school to completely break up with the three major groups, and the wealthy group simply cannot withstand this result.
In this way, the three major groups can naturally remove Li Tianlan from his position as marshal.
But now...
Why did Li Tianlan become an expansion of the Xuewu Legion when he arrived
Or a super large comprehensive army of 100,000 people
This is simply a blatant power grab.
Everyone's inner thoughts are constantly changing.
The key now is that Li Tianlan cannot possibly not know that the three major groups intend to cancel the formation of the Xuewu Legion. So where did he get the courage to expand the Xuewu Legion
Humiliating yourself
Countless people's thoughts are fluctuating.
But the madness didn't end there.
Li Tianlan knocked on the table and continued calmly: "In addition, the minister and I believe that the 100,000-strong Snow Dance Corps and the Arctic Ocean Command are enough to frighten the entire Eastern Europe, so such a force does not necessarily have to be gathered within the five Eastern European countries. , the new Snow Dance Legion, most of its strength will be stationed in various places in the Snow Country in the future, to intimidate the Snow Country."
"boom!"
In the uproar, countless people raised their heads and looked at Li Tianlan in astonishment.
"Don't bother Li Shuai."
In an indifferent voice filled with anger, Representative Wen Siyuan of Beihai Province said calmly: "The Beihai Navy Corps is negotiating with Snow Country regarding matters related to Snow Country, and a good result has been achieved so far. I think..."
"I didn't stop you from negotiating with Snow Country."
Li Tianlan looked into his eyes: "You can talk whatever you want, but after the discussion, the results of the negotiation will be accepted by the Xuewu Legion."
He leaned forward and looked into Wen Siyuan's eyes: "Don't you understand what I say?"
"What a bastard!"
Amid the furious voice, Tang Wansen, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stood up: "Comrades, this is a blatant seizure of power! The Xuewu Legion is a special operations legion, what kind of strength can it expand to...
One hundred thousand people? This is completely nonsense. This has violated the original intention of the establishment of the Xuewu Corps. Why should a special operations corps take over the negotiation results of the Beihai Corps? Li Tianlan, do you really want to support yourself in Eastern Europe with troops? "
There was silence in the conference room for a while.
Countless voices rang out.
"That's true. I think it's appropriate for Beihai to sit in the Snow Country."
"Li Shuai didn't think it through properly."
"There is no need to expand the Snow Dance Legion."
"As a special operations corps, it would be better for the Snow Dance Corps to return home."
Among the countless voices, Li Huacheng's face became gloomy for a moment and he said nothing.
A smile flashed in Tang Wansen's eyes, and he continued: "And I personally think that the Snow Dance Corps suffered heavy losses this time and should return to the country to recuperate. The Northern Navy Corps is currently strong and strong. The Northern Navy Corps is responsible for the stability of Ulan and the five Eastern European countries, and with The Arctic Ocean Command is the best choice to help each other. Of course, Comrade Tianlan still has merit, but after all, he is still too young. The heavy losses of the Snow Dance Legion are also related to his immature decision-making. I suggest that he make adjustments. Comrade Tianlan can retain the rank of marshal for his position, but it is better to choose a mature and prudent comrade as the new commander of the Xuewu Legion."
Li Tianlan watched Tang Wansen jump up and down with cold eyes.
His performance has been recognized by countless people.
Some people from the Prince Group, the Special Operations Group, and the Southeast Group spoke out in favor of withdrawing the Xuewu Corps, and at the same time abolished Li Tianlan's position as commander of the Xuewu Corps and retained the rank of marshal.
Among those who spoke was Zhongzhou Prime Minister Chen Fangqing.
The trend of the conference is changing irrevocably.
"Comrade Tianlan is responsible for such heavy losses of the Snow Dance Corps. I think Li Shuai should give everyone a reasonable explanation and an explanation. As for Eastern Europe, there is no problem with the agreement, but the Northern Navy Corps After stationed in Ulan Kingdom, some things happened... "
Tang Wansen's voice was still ringing.
Li Tianlan laughed.
"An explanation, indeed an explanation."
Li Tianlan said lightly: "I have sent people to make statistics. As of before I attended the meeting, more than a thousand of the elite members of the Snow Dance Legion had died at the hands of the Beihai Wang Demon Legion. In addition, I myself also He was seriously injured in the attack, Old Man Tang, is this the explanation you want?"
Everyone was shocked.
Li Tianlan's words were clearly talking about the chaos in Eastern Europe, and the Beihai Wang family was obstructing it...
No matter whether this thing is true or not, it is not good to say it, and...
Tang Wansen glanced at Li Tianlan with a smile, without any panic. His old face was twisted together like a chrysanthemum: "Beihai Wang Family? Demon Legion?"
He laughed and said: "Li Shuai is still too young, so he was deceived by some rumors from the outside world. I have served in Beihai for many years and in Zhongzhou for many years, but I have never heard of any demon army. The demons Li Shuai mentioned The legion belongs to the Wang family in Beihai, is there any evidence?"
His smile disappeared and he said fiercely: "You must present a piece of evidence today! In the chaos in Eastern Europe, the Sword Emperor single-handedly turned the tide. If it weren't for him, the Snow Country and the Ulan Country would have nothing to do with Central Continent today. Now the Wang Family of Beihai You are about to take over the Snow Country and the Ulan Country, but you are here slandering some demonic army and trying to erase Beihai's achievements. It is simply unreasonable!"
"today?"
Li Tianlan raised his eyebrows: "I really can't provide any evidence today."
He nodded and looked at the audience: "But there are some things, including the Snow Dance Legion, including many things. The Beihai Wang Family must give me an explanation."
He glanced at every big shot in the Southeast Group and said coldly: "After the meeting, I will go to Beihai Province, to Emperor Bing Mountain, to the Hero Platform of Emperor Bing Mountain, and I will have an explanation with Wang Tianzong face to face!"
The heated conference room suddenly became dead silent.
Go to Emperor Bingshan, go to Xiongxiong Terrace, and ask for an explanation from Wang Tianzong.
That touch of madness completely broke out, with fire, burning crazily.
Tang Wansen was stunned for a long time.
He stared into Li Tianlan's eyes and said word by word: "You dare to attack the mountain?!"
"The Imperial Soldier Mountain is also in Central Continent, why can't I go there?"
Li Tianlan's voice was cold, and his murderous intent was not concealed.
"You dare to slander the Wang family of Beihai?!"
Tang Wansen was as fierce as an old dog.
"slander?!"
Li Tianlan laughed wildly: "You can say this is a slander, or I can think you are ignorant. After all, your surname is not Wang. But when I stand on the Emperor's Mountain, whoever dares to say this is a slander will be killed by me." who!"
Tang Wansen suddenly became furious. He stretched out his hand and almost pointed at Li Tianlan's nose and yelled: "You are a little beast who doesn't care about the overall situation. You dare to kill people?! Even your grandfather didn't dare back then! Do you know what you are doing? What? Do you know what the overall situation is?!"
Li Tianlan looked at him indifferently and said seriously and calmly: "What is the overall situation?"
"Ignorance, beast, arrogance! People like this who don't have the overall situation in mind should not be here. Get out! Get out! Get out now! I suggest that Li Tianlan be removed from all positions immediately. This kind of bastard is destined to be with Li Tianlan. A madman is just as traitorous to the country, and Central Continent cannot tolerate such a scourge! Madman Li is so sanctimonious, what did he hand over? Bullshit!"
Tang Wansen's furious and almost irrational roar shook the entire conference room.
Li Tianlan looked at him, his eyes becoming deeper and calmer.
He looked at the distorted face and asked again: "What is the big picture?"
"Li Shuai is indeed too impulsive."
Ye Dongsheng stood up and said calmly: "The Beihai Wang Sect does not have a demon army. If you want to explain, we can negotiate with the Beihai Wang Sect. You went to Emperor Bing Mountain without caring about the overall situation. At least the reason you gave is not enough. So that you can desecrate the forbidden area of Emperor Bingshan."
Li Tianlan snorted and asked, "Blasphemy?"
Ye Dongsheng said nothing.
Ye Dongsheng's name never appeared on the stone on the Hero's Platform.
But the names of countless elders and ancestors of the Ye family are all on that stone.
Beihai Wang family, Southeast Group, countless people, countless people not named Wang, their ancestors, their elders' names are also engraved on the Xiaoxiong Stone on Xiaoxiong Terrace.
At that time hundreds of years of glory had been accumulated.
His eyes were extremely determined.
"Are you saying I don't have enough reasons?"
Li Tianlan looked at Ye Dongsheng and asked.
"Yes, not enough."
Ye Dongsheng's voice became firmer.
Li Tianlan snorted and laughed: "If it's not enough, it's not enough. I'm not going to look for any excuses."
He looked at the audience with a smile and asked: "Tell me, what is the overall situation? Whose overall situation do you call the overall situation?"
