Chapter 31: The Most Likely Future

Li Tianlan glanced at the military advisor deeply, and suddenly asked, "How long are you going to let me stay here?"

The military advisor was stunned and laughed: "To be precise, it should be how long His Highness wants to stay here." ”

Li Tianlan's fingers tapped lightly on the table, but he didn't answer.

The advisor wanted him to stay here.

Li Tianlan himself doesn't want to leave now.

Although the reasons for the two are different, when combined, they do not conflict, but are logical.

Li Tianlan stayed here to become stronger.

And the military advisor hopes that after he becomes stronger, he will take back the things that the reincarnation palace master will let the military advisor temporarily take charge of.

The core is all about getting stronger.

Li Tianlan looked down at the list, his eyes sharp, as if he was looking at a real knife.

Again, he confirmed his thoughts.

He doesn't like the extremely loose ally model of the knife, and it can even be said that he doesn't approve of it.

The point of the so-called disapproval is not in the ally mode.

It's about being loose.

He doesn't like any loosely structured organization, even if it's more subtle and can work wonders at times, but too loose means too much risk of being uncontrollable.

He subconsciously clenched his fists.

What he can grasp must be the power that he can hold firmly in his hands.

"When will you be able to truly enter the Invincible Realm?"

The military advisor asked quietly.

"I know what you mean. ”

Li Tianlan glanced at him.

He did not ask whether the allies of the knife have the possibility of merging with the wealthy group in the future, nor did he ask the specific position of those allies, the current situation is that the wealthy group is constantly losing blood, shrinking in scale, and reducing its strength, but because of the existence of these allies, the overall strength of the giant group has not declined.

But what they will do in the future is not clear to the military advisors, and those allies themselves may not have clear attitudes and ideas.

Everyone is looking forward to Li Tianlan's achievements.

Li Tianlan's growth is directly related to the final attitude of these allies.

Pure force doesn't seem to be of much use, at least Li Tianlan doesn't think it's useless, there are too many examples in history where a person's bravery can't succeed, but in Li Tianlan's eyes, this doesn't mean anything, it can only show that the martial artist who can't do it is still not strong enough.

When a person has the strength but cannot bring down the whole world, his actions are reckless, he is reckless, he is reckless.

But when a person's strength is really at the pinnacle, it can sweep everything.

He is a god.

Tianjiao has no plan.

A sword is enough.

The distance between the reckless man and the gods is the distance between the strong enough and the absolutely powerful.

And in the eyes of those allies, if Li Tianlan has reached the peak now, the Eastern Imperial Palace, which is dominated by Tianjiao, will expand unlimitedly, occupy endless resources, and rule the dark world, and the strength of the individual can make his absolute will unimpeded in the dark world, and his power will also call for wind and rain on the world stage, such people and forces are definitely worthy of any ally.

And if Li Tianlan stops, although his current combat power is also the top level of the dark world, but if it is limited to this, those allies will only drift away from him.

At least from the current point of view, Li Tianlan's personal advance and retreat already means too many things.

And Li Tianlan's combat power has been growing, but he has never broken through to become a real invincible realm master, this performance has made the allies hesitate in their hearts, so now the only thing Li Tianlan needs to do is to improve his strength, he left the desert prison, except for miscellaneous matters, there is no meaning, and ordinary miscellaneous matters, military advisors and saints can completely handle it.

The military advisor was stunned for a moment, and said softly: " At present, the situation in the outside world is relatively deadlocked, the Southeast Group and the Giants Group are waiting for a big reshuffle, although we are cooperating, but there are some things, we don't know, after the summer solstice visited Li Huacheng, Li Huacheng's attitude has changed subtly, I guess the two sides are likely to have reached an agreement, so now both sides are fighting for the dominance of the reshuffle, and within the two groups, there will also be some positions, Your Highness, to be honest, this kind of thing, you are not very good at it, which is why I recommend that you stay in the desert, if nothing unexpected happens, the new balance will probably be reached in more than a year。 That's also the best time for you to get out of the desert. ”

A year later.

Li Tianlan narrowed his eyes and suddenly said, "Change?"

"Yes, at present, it is very important whether Li Huacheng can stay in office. ”

Li Tianlan thought for a while and said softly: "If Li Huacheng retreats, Wang Qinglei has the greatest chance?"

"According to the usual practice, in the adjustment a few years ago, Wang Qinglei should have become a director, and the palace master was very hostile to the Beihai Wang family, and we exerted some influence, Wang Qinglei did not go up, and now looking back, Wang Tianzong should have also noticed something, so he also secretly operated some things, causing Wang Qinglei to stay in Wuyue, so that even if Li Huacheng retreats, although Wang Qinglei has a chance, he is no longer a hot one, the new president, big

The general meeting is an excessive figure, and for us, Li Huacheng's retention is the most advantageous situation. ”

"But what Li Huacheng wants is Beihai. ”

Li Tianlan stood up and took two steps back and forth: "You mean, Xia Zhi visited Li Huacheng and gave him the condition that he would be re-elected, so that he would give up suppression of Beihai?"

He shook his head: "Taking Beihai, his merits are immeasurable, enough to go down in history, and it is unlikely that he will accept it." ”

"Not everyone is as sharp as His Highness. ”

The military advisor said softly: "Taking Beihai is a big goal, this is the same as unifying the whole world, the goal is there, but not many people expect to complete this goal in a short time, in fact, if you want to take back the dominance of Beihai, it is necessary to complete it little by little, Zhongzhou does not allow Beihai to be divided, but Wang Shengxiao gave his own bottom line, so this game is a real tug-of-war, a few years, it is impossible to have a result, maybe it is a game of decades or even hundreds of years." ”

"In fact, they've gotten enough over the course of the year that I think they're going to pause and figure it out when they reach a certain goal. After all, for more than a year, the recruitment work in Beihai has not stopped, nearly 200,000 veterans of the Northern Navy Regiment have re-enlisted, and at the same time, the North Navy Regiment has recruited nearly 400,000 recruits. Hey..."

"So do you think that when a certain goal is achieved, Li Huacheng will take the initiative to compromise and take the olive branch extended by Xia Zhi? Although this is cooperation, it is essentially equivalent to a threat. ”

Li Tianlan said seriously.

"It's not a compromise, politics isn't a war, it's not a bottomless struggle, it's art. Tianlan, you have to remember this, there is the most delicate balance in the world. Wang Shengxiao put on a tough deterrent to Zhongzhou at the expense of a war, the next thing is to compromise, one advance and one retreat, Zhongzhou is indeed stronger than Beihai, but the strength of Zhongzhou can not be retreated step by step, in fact, after the strong, Zhongzhou also has to make selective concessions, the parliament made a strong move, when it reaches a certain level, it is bound to stop, you can't think that this is a bow, this can be said to be a change of strategy. ”

A voice rang out in the doorway.

Dongcheng Invincible, who was wearing the marshal's military uniform, walked in and said meaningfully: "People who can sit in high positions, every move cannot be completely purposeless, strong, or compromised, are all ways to achieve the goal, they attack strongly, and after achieving the goal, they encounter problems, and then they must change their methods to seek another goal." ”

"Minister. ”

Li Tianlan nodded: "So what?"

"So Li Huacheng will promise the summer solstice, the academic school is not in ideal condition in the adjustment of the past ten years, once Li Huacheng retreats, he will inevitably be squeezed by other groups, re-election is very important to him, five years is enough time for him to lay out for the academic school again, so he will at least agree to part of the conditions of the summer solstice, he needs to use this time to win over some people to make up for the shortcomings in the political structure of the academic school. ”

Dongcheng Invincible said quietly.

The military advisor's eyes lit up, and a smile flashed on the corner of his mouth, and the statement that Dongcheng was invincible coincided with his thoughts.

"What do you mean, the minister, that thing is settled?"

The military advisor asked with a smile, although he has a huge influence in Zhongzhou, he is not a high-level after all, so when the two of them are alone, some words are difficult to speak, but now that Li Tianlan is here, the meaning is different.

"Eight or nine is not far from ten. ”

Dongcheng Invincible hesitated and said slowly: "The president and the prime minister have communicated with me about this issue. ”

"I don't understand. ”

Li Tianlan said directly, this is doubt, and it is also learning.

This so-called twists and turns in art, he is really not very good at it.

"The military advisor asked about the candidates for the board of directors of the Southeast Group that will be re-elected in a year. ”

Dongcheng Invincible said softly.

"Settled?"

Li Tianlan thought of the competition between Ye Dongsheng and Wang Qinglei.

"It's hard to say at the moment, but the current situation... It should be Ye Dongsheng and Wang Qinglei who became directors of Zhongzhou at the same time. This is also an outcome that the South-East Group can grudgingly accept. ”

Ye Dongsheng.

Wang Qinglei.

There is no Wen Siyuan.

No matter how dull Li Tianlan is, he knows what it means.

This means that for the first time in hundreds of years, the Speaker of the North Sea has not been elected to the seat of Parliament.

"Is this a compromise on the summer solstice? The Southeast Group would rather give up Wen Siyuan than let Wang Qinglei go up?"

Li Tianlan's eyebrows raised.

"Where is the Southeast Group that is unwilling to give up Wang Qinglei..."

The military advisor smiled: "It's the academic faction and the prince group who are unwilling to give up." ”

"Although Wang Qinglei is still the leader of the Southeast Group in name, he has actually completely turned his face with Xia Zhi, and letting him go up is tantamount to occupying a place belonging to the Southeast Group, but he will not contribute to the development of the Southeast Group, which greatly weakens the influence of the Southeast Group

Sitting far away in Beihai to stabilize the morale of the army, this is a reluctantly acceptable premise for the summer solstice. ”

Wang Qinglei is very ambitious for Li Huacheng's position, after he lost the support of the Southeast Group, he is bound to seek new strength, the academic school is the most suitable object, he was born in the Beihai Wang family, and some retired but influential old comrades have a good relationship, the academic school hopes to unite these forces through him, make up for their own shortcomings. ”

Li Tianlan finally understood: "So this is a change of strategy? After Wang Shengxiao showed his determination, the academic faction and the prince group already understood that it was impossible to forcibly oppress, so they planned to disintegrate the Beihai Wang clan from within? Wang Qinglei is a very important chess piece, as long as he is won over, they can fully support Wang Qinglei, and after six years, they will push him to Li Huacheng's position, and then they will be plotting for the position of the patriarch of the Beihai Wang clan, so that Zhongzhou will take back the dominance of Beihai to a large extent?"

"That's pretty much it. ”

A faint smile line appeared at the corner of Dongcheng Invincible's mouth: " However, there are still a lot of transactions in terms of details, and the academic faction is pushing Wang Qinglei, it is impossible to have no conditions, so the correct approach should be to let him fight for the patriarch first, at least let him have an influence in the Beihai Wang clan that is not weaker than the summer solstice, as a condition to support his ascendancy, the speaker of the Beihai Province is bound to be replaced by an academic person, just right, Wen Siyuan should be facing retirement or becoming a director at that time, this position will be vacant, and the commander of the Beihai Navy Regiment will also be replaced, this may become the goal that we will strive for at that time, including us, to eliminate the group but never target the individual, this is Li Huacheng's forteIt is also the key strategy that the academic school can get to today, and it is still effective when used in Beihai Province. ”

Li Tianlan was silent for a long time.

For a moment, he couldn't even figure out what complicated calculations this included, he just felt that it was even more complicated than his kendo.

"It's ridiculous..."

He took a deep breath and muttered to himself, "This is a trap, it is impossible for Xia Solstice not to see it, how can she agree to such a thing?

He thought about it seriously and said slowly: "It's equivalent to only buying a few years of respite, what's the point?"

"In a few years, who knows what Wang Tianzong's state will be?"

The military advisor said lightly: "She is just procrastinating, pressing her hope on Wang Tianzong's recovery, as long as he recovers from his injury, everything will still have a turnaround, Wang Tianzong after recovering from his injury, but he is the world's pride." ”

"Is she so sure that Wang Tianzong's injuries can be recovered?"

Li Tianlan was a little unimpressed.

"She couldn't help it. ”

Dongcheng Invincible said: "She can't see the way forward for the time being, she can only delay, this is the price she must pay, or a compromise." ”

Li Tianlan was silent.

One Wuyue Province, half Huating, a considerable part of the Southeast Group, and a number of directors.

This price can be described as extremely heavy.

Li Tianlan suddenly thought of a very important question.

"If Li Huacheng stays in office to help us and the Southeast Group complete the reshuffle, then after staying..."

"If he stays, there won't be too many problems with the reshuffle of the wealthy group, and then I will focus my resources on you. ”

Li Tianlan's eyes flashed: "Then the Beihai Wang clan and the southeast set..."

"It has nothing to do with us. ”

Dongcheng Invincible said categorically.

His expression was quiet, but there was a kind of ruthlessness and decisiveness between the lines.

"In cooperation with Southeast Group, our biggest appeal is to successfully complete the reshuffle, that's all. ”

Dongcheng Invincible said.

Li Tianlan opened his mouth.

At this moment, he vaguely seemed to understand what politics was.

The Middle-earth Council seems to have taken a step back, only delaying the time by a few years, but it has lost the tricky rival of the giant group.

After the reshuffle of the wealthy group is completed, the group with Li Tianlan as the core will inevitably grow and absorb fresh blood, and the wealthy group may also become a member of the southeast group.

"So after the shuffle is completed, we will turn our heads and deal with the Southeast Group?"

Li Tianlan's voice was a little complicated.

He didn't have a good impression of the Southeast Group, but this kind of relationship between close cooperation one moment and sword and sword shadow the next moment still made him feel a little uncomfortable.

This discomfort has nothing to do with the Southeast Group.

It's about politics.

Dongcheng Invincible said that this is art.

But this kind of art really does not allow the slightest sensibility.

This is art that is intellectually intellect to the point of cruelty.

"After the shuffle is completed, we need a period of time to integrate and dock with the forces of the military division to facilitate the recovery of strength, of course, it all depends on your state at that time, if everything goes well..."

Dongcheng Invincible looked at Li Tianlan: "At that time, I should also retreat, how was Zhongzhou at that time, you shouldn't ask me, you have to ask yourself, because at that time, it was you who led the wealthy group to play in the parliament, and what about the Southeast Group was all in your thoughts." ”

"That's when it's time for me to retire. ”

The military advisor laughed softly: "Your Highness, at that time, it will be your stage. ”
