The district meeting of District 1 was held for seven consecutive days. When large-scale protests and anti-war activities broke out in various states and regions, the war faction finally chose to compromise. In the end, the two factions reached a consensus and did not take radical military measures to deal with the issue of Dragon City.
On this basis, Longcheng still needs to be besieged politically and militarily. As a result, a long-term confrontation and game quietly unfolded in Longcheng.
Similarly, no fool would advocate attacking the inland of District 1 for Dragon City, because it would be impossible to accomplish after the recovery of resources. Based on Dragon City's current situation, while ensuring its existing rights and interests and military strength, it is an urgent matter to free Dragon City from political and military control in District 1.
…
Two months later, in Yanbei, Huaqu.
It was late autumn and the beginning of winter, and at a well-known mountain scenic spot, the whole mountain was covered with red maple leaves, which looked like fire and clouds, extremely beautiful and spectacular.
Su Tianyu was wearing a windbreaker and accompanying Qin Yu on the mountain. Behind the two of them, there were a group of military and political leaders, including Qin Ziyi, Jiangzhou, Wang Dingyuan, Xin Xiaodong, Tan Mingchao, Fei Pingsheng and dozens of others, as well as General Yodhua, the visiting representative of the Laomo region.
A group of people stopped at the bottom of the stairs and waited there.
At the same time, Qin Yu brought Su Tianyu to the top of the mountain. The old man and the child looked into the distance, looking at the sea of clouds in the distance and the red leaves all over the mountain, and their hearts suddenly became calm.
After a long silence, Qin Yu suddenly turned around and asked, "Do you have a cigarette? Give me one."
Su Tianyu glanced at him and said helplessly: "Jiangzhou specifically told me not to let you smoke, so you better bear with it for a while."
Qin Yu stretched out two fingers and said in a commanding tone: "Hurry up, give me one."
Su Tianyu had no choice but to light a cigarette for the other party.
Qin Yu held the cigarette, took a deep puff, looked into the distance, and said softly: "Xiao Yu, what do you think of the follow-up?"
This sentence stumped Su Tianyu. In fact, before coming here, he had not thought this through clearly. He didn't know how to use some political game to make Longcheng achieve independence.
But looking at Qin Yu's profile, Su Tianyu suddenly had an idea and blurted out, "I think the military conflict has officially ended. Now Longcheng and Lao Mo have carried out strong military cooperation and signed relevant defense clauses. Unless they want to start a regional war and hold a desperate mentality, they are likely to carry out overly intense military actions."
At this point, Su Tianyu paused, quickly sorted out his thoughts, and continued: "So, in my opinion, the key to future problems lies in how to deal with external political and military oppression. In the south, mainly in the Laomo area, there are many weak regimes. If the first area forms a new force through division, winning over, and buying, and continues to confront and encircle us, we will definitely fall into a passive position. Therefore, my idea is to gather people outside the group, through frequent trade and mutual assistance in infrastructure, we can form a powerful political force. The group is Longcheng and Laomo. For these poor brothers around, we will help them if we can, and win them over if we can. Once we take the lead in this move, the political crisis in Longcheng will be solved."
"Your view is correct and far-sighted..." After hearing this, Qin Yu was silent for a while, and then said softly: "Xiao Yu, I went from being a poor boy with nothing to entering Songjiang and forming my own small group... and now I have such a large group. Along the way, I have summed up a very simple truth."
Su Tianyu asked modestly: "What's the reason?"
Qin Yu took a puff of his cigarette and continued, "This is the rule of the human world. Fighting alone will always lead to losses. The strong seek the strong, and the weak seek the weak... Whether it is a makeshift team or a magnificent parliament hall, the nature is actually the same. It's nothing more than a battle of wits between people, but the stage has changed."
Su Tianyu couldn't help but agree with these simple and straightforward words, and nodded: "Hearing what you said, I am more convinced that we must take the lead and increase the influence of Lao Mo after unification. We must open up these relationships in the surrounding areas one by one and form a linked whole, so that we can fight against District 1."
"Hehe..." Qin Yu turned his head and nodded slowly at him: "Okay, you have found the feeling of being the boss."
Su Tianyu also laughed: "No, I'm just an errand boy."
Qin Yu looked at him and asked meaningfully, "Have you ever thought about why your teacher Li Mingsheng didn't come this time?"
After Su Tianyu heard this, he couldn't help but fall silent.
Qin Yu reached out his hand, patted him on the shoulder slowly, and said with a smile: "Some things are destined... Just like me at the beginning, I came here without knowing what was going on. I was very nervous at first, but after doing it for a while, I found that it was quite easy to do!! A capable person will be able to do it, just learn this point."
"Ha ha!"
Su Tianyu smiled knowingly when he heard this.
Qin Yu pulled Su Tianyu to chat again. The old man and the young man stood on the mountain and chatted for a long time, laughing from time to time.
After chatting for a long time, the two walked down the mountain and came to the steps below.
Qin Yu, who was dressed in cloth, stretched out his hand, pointed at Qin Ziyi and said, "Brothers are still brothers no matter how far away they are. Visit more often, contact more often, and communicate more."
Qin Ziyi nodded immediately after hearing this.
Qin Yu laughed, waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's getting late, let's go back."
A group of people followed Qin Yu and walked down the mountain.
That night, everyone returned to the base, and Qin Yu did not attend the subsequent dinner. The last time Su Tianyu saw him was when he was sitting in the car and leaving.
The dinner lasted until after eleven o'clock in the evening. Before Su Tianyu left, Qin Ziyi found him and said, "The interview and the aid to the Laomo region have been handled. My brother Jiangzhou and the commander of the southern region Xiang Jingyang will arrive in Longcheng with you this time for a month-long visit and military communication!"
Su Tianyu hurriedly shook hands with him and responded very formally: "I hope that the relevant negotiation meeting centered on Longcheng can also be held in the Chinese District as soon as possible."
Hearing the conversation between the two, Jiang Zhou, who was sitting nearby, patted his thigh, stood up and said, "That's for sure. Okay, then I'll make another trip!"
As soon as the words fell, a voice came out. Everyone turned their heads and saw a mature, beautiful and charming woman walking into the banquet hall.
She stood there, looking at everyone with a smile, and continued, "I want to go to Dragon City, too."
Su Tianyu was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and gave Jiangzhou a questioning look.
Jiangzhou paused for a while, then extended his hand and introduced: "My sister, Qin Zimo."
