Of course, the Yuanhe Empire will not only send people to negotiate with the Dongsheng Empire, but also send people to negotiate between the Ningning Empire and the Wen'an Empire, and offer favorable conditions, but as Yuan Fang said, the Dugu Zhen who has just succeeded the Empire and Liu Chengxiang of the Wen'an Empire need most now is a miracle of the world, Dugu Zhen can stabilize the rule of the empire and eliminate all the previous bad influences, what about Liu Chengxiang, also needs this merit to become the last and most important cornerstone of ascending to the throne, so the efforts of the Yuanhe Empire are destined to be useless, In exchange for humiliation and unwillingness, all he got was humiliation and unwillingness again and again.

Compared with the stability and prosperity of the imperial capital of the Dongsheng Empire, the imperial capital of the Yuanhe Empire has not yet recovered from the persecution of cholera, and is shrouded by the clouds of war that is about to break out. There is no way to escape, and the empire does not allow them to leave, only a very small number of people have some unknown relationships, or quietly follow the caravan and move to other countries, that is, spend a lot of money to find some dark forces to smuggle across the border, but this kind of people are only a minority, most of them still stay in the Yuanhe Empire and actively prepare for war, intending to defend the dignity of the empire with their lives and blood.

If it was changed to before, what to defend the dignity of the empire or something is fart for the common people, but the destruction of the country is imminent, the blood of the people is stimulated, no one wants to be a slave to the country, coupled with the official vow to preach the powerful force of the empire and boundless hope, the Yuan and the empire for the first time the military and the people work together, armed to resist foreign enemies, this force and morale should not be underestimated, as the Yuan and the empire continue to increase troops in the southeast and north directions, the Wen'an Empire and the Ning Empire feel the pressure, and they invariably reinforce the border again.

Airship, or air superiority, makes the military reconnaissance work of the Dongsheng Empire easy, these days the reconnaissance boat has never stopped, hovering over the western two continents of the Yuan and Empire, monitoring the every move of the Yuan and the Empire, the latest information received, the Yuan and the Empire's troops of about 50,000 people drawn from the east are stationed in two county towns less than a hundred miles west of the imperial capital, and the people and officials who survived cholera in the western region are moving eastward, leaving only a few local troops to stay, like the nearby big cities gathered. Without the analysis of the intelligence department, at a glance, it was clear that the Yuanhe Empire had given up the defense of the two western continents, which was good news for the Dongsheng Empire, but for some reason, Yuan Fang's heart became more and more uneasy.

On this day, Yuan Fang was packing up, Xiaomei and Yan Yue came over to help, turning Yuan Fang's bedroom into a mess, Yuan Fang hugged Ren Yan and stood aside depressedly looking at the huge package on the bed and worried.

In the past, these things were all helped by Sang Rou and them, and it was okay to bring some change of clothes and basic daily necessities, this time, I don't know what kind of crazy Xiaomei and Yan Yue smoked, so they had to come and stir up, as a result, not only did they bring more than a dozen sets of clothes to Yuan Fang, but even brought five pairs of shoes, as well as towels, tooth powder, soaphorns, etc., which could be used and those that could not be used were stuffed into the baggage, and the most unacceptable thing for Yuan Fang was that Xiaomei also moved more than a dozen books from the study, saying that it was to kill time on the road for Yuan Fang, Yuan Fang really wanted to cry without tears, It's not a trip, it's a burden to bring so many things, but it's hard to say this, after all, Xiaomei and Yan Yue are also kind.

Just when Yuan Fang was thinking about what to do with this large pile of luggage with a sad face, Guan Xiaoyun came over and told Yuan Fang that someone was looking for him in the dark.

Yuan Fang was very surprised, although he was the big boss of the dark night, but he basically didn't take care of things, under normal circumstances, unless Yuan Fang asked for it, they would send the intelligence information that Yuan Fang needed, in addition, the people of the dark night would not take the initiative to come to him, the incompetent big boss, and if there was something that could not be handled, they would generally report directly to Yang Xing.

Following Guan Xiaoyun downstairs, Yuan Fang saw Pang Ying standing in the middle of the living room with an anxious face at a glance, and his heart was tight, it seems that the matter is not small, otherwise Pang Ying would not come over in person. Without waiting for Yuan Fang to speak, Pang Ying hurriedly said, "Big boss, you have finally come down." ”

Yuan Fang's heart sank: "What's wrong?" Sit down and say. ”

As soon as Pang Ying sat down, he couldn't wait to say, "Big boss, it seems that something has happened." ”

Yuan Fang rolled his eyes and said, "What do you mean that something seems to have happened?" You got it right. ”

Pang Ying eased up, calmed down his uneasy mood and said: "It's such a big boss, since nine days ago, we have lost contact with the second and third masters. ”

Yuan Fang suddenly glared when he heard this, and said, "What? Isn't it at most once every three days, why did you come to me after nine days without news? Hurry up and make it clear, what's going on, why did you lose contact? Did Ren Fei and Luo Siping have an accident or did there be something wrong with the contact channel? ”

Pang Yingying said in a heavy tone: "I just don't know what went wrong to delay for so long, at first, I thought that our messengers were delayed by a storm at sea, this kind of thing often happens, it is not unusual, so I waited for two days, but there is still no news, and then I sent someone to check, but I didn't find anything, I inquired about the pirates in the eastern seas, and there was no storm in the recent period, and the eastern seas were calm. Our intelligence officers also heard from the pirates that the Wanliu Empire seemed to be doing something big in the past few months, and most of the craftsmen of the empire were gathered, and I heard that they were planning to build a new city, but the pirates' eyes did not find any traces of the construction, and those craftsmen did not know where to go. By the way, the recent sea transportation of the Wanliu Empire is relatively frequent, and every time they go to sea, there is a fleet escort, and the pirates don't know what they are transporting, only that there is a large amount of wood and leather in it, and the destination is unknown, and the general direction is the southwest of the Wanliu Empire. ”

Yuan Fang frowned: "What about the Liusang Empire?" What is the situation? ”

Pang Ying replied: "There is no news from the Liusang Empire, our airship can't see anything in the surrounding waters, and the intelligence officers are nowhere to be seen. ”

Yuan Fang's brows furrowed even tighter: "What about Ren Fei?" No news either? ”

Pang Ying nodded: "I lost contact." ”

Yan Yue and Xiaomei went downstairs, Yan Yue saw Pang Ying coming, and said in surprise: "Pang Ying, why are you here?" ”

Pang Ying was interrupted by Yuan Fang as soon as he wanted to speak: "Oh, I'll ask him to help get some information, are you done cleaning up?" ”
