Chapter 418: Crazy Demon Chi Lei

"We don't have to say much about these ......" Ye Tao smiled a little, according to the more metaphysical statement, Tan Weiran is too preoccupied. Whether it is as a military leader with a certain status or as a prince of the most powerful country on this continent, these words are not something that can be said casually. This determination, this faint anger, this sense of authority that wants to bring things under one's control, this majesty of belonging to a prince, a patriot, can be expressed in other ways entirely.

"What did Wei Ming say?" Ye Tao asked. He had not been involved in any communication between their brothers. Compared with the situation that the two princes of Chunnan are almost endless, the two princes of Dongping have a heart-to-heart conversation with each other, and the conspiracy is particularly embarrassing.

"The eldest brother said that if the conditions permitted, the throne would ...... Or the throne, he doesn't necessarily have to hold it in his hands. At least, in the beginning. However, he will never let go of the actual power. Tan Weiran hesitated for a moment and said.

Ye Tao nodded. Such an attitude is the attitude that the eldest son of an emperor's family will have. Talking about Weiya, a child, although he is his own brother, he was not born to a mother after all, and he was originally separated by a layer of relationship. In addition, when Tan Weiya was born, Tan Weiming and Tan Weiran had already begun to handle various practical government and military affairs, although they always wanted to fulfill their brother's obligations and always wanted to take their little brother out to play. But Concubine Lian Changling has been obstructing it all the time. Perhaps, it was a worry. In any case, it is too difficult and incredible for a woman born in the court of Chunnan's struggle and entanglement to make her believe that brothers in the royal family can also have true family affection. And this experience of being thwarted also somewhat affected Tan Weiming and Tan Weiran's perception of Tan Weiya's little brother. In this case, when it comes to issues that are too big and too far-reaching, it is really normal to decide to sacrifice this little brother after careful consideration. Ye Tao has no objection to this, in fact, without the scruples of blood, Ye Tao's attitude towards Tan Weiya and Concubine Lian is tougher than Tan Weiming and Tan Weiran. In Ye Tao's mind, Chang Ling is an annoying Obasan, and Tan Weiya is a very annoying child...... And when he was in Chunnan, he learned how annoying Chang Ling was and how scheming she was. Now, growing up in such a family environment in the Chunnan Royal Court, Tan Weiya is becoming less and less likely to be a likable child.

"You're right, the reason why Chunnan made this gesture must also be a compromise. It is true that as a country, the strength of the two countries will inevitably increase greatly, and the power and dominance that the highest level of a country can obtain will increase greatly, but no matter which side of the merger is involved, it will inevitably accept various shocks in other aspects. Let's not talk about the fact that if the two different institutional systems can be combined, what if the status of the powerful families in the two countries rises or falls? Dongping attaches importance to craftsmen and merchants, and Chunnan attaches importance to scholars, which is also a contradiction that is difficult to reconcile. …… It's hard to imagine that Chunnan would make this proposal without hindrance. There was only one premise for such a proposal: they felt that they had gained more by avoiding war. I think you're right, Chunnan just doesn't dare to fight. Ye Tao said: "I don't know how long Your Majesty is going to let me stay in Yunzhou, but ...... Now His Majesty has given Yejiabao to me and settled my hometown in Yunzhou. There is also Dai Yun here, and with the Dai family here, it is a little troublesome for me to go back to my hometown in Yicheng. I'm afraid that if I want to stop doing this Northern Frontier Economic Envoy, it will have to be a long time later. Frankly speaking, I don't have a good impression of Chunnan, Changling, and Weiya. I'll always be on your side in this matter. And as long as I am in the northern frontier, at least I guarantee that there will be 100,000 elite troops on our side at any time. ”

Ye Tao also made a very clear statement. This is also a very strong statement. Ye Tao is modest. The current Ye Tao is not the Ye Tao of a few years ago. He can now mobilize the full power of Yunzhou, Zhenzhou, and Benwolf Plain, and even the power of the entire northern grassland in the near future. In the south, with the relationship between Ye Tao and Old Man Qi, and the Seven Seas Trading Company and Min Yue and others, as long as Ye Tao expressed his position, almost Yazhou and the entire water division would be affected. Over the years, Ye Tao's Ye Workshop has handed over a lot of technology to the Gao family, which was originally an opponent, so that the Gao family has returned to the first position in Dongping in terms of ordinary ordnance manufacturing; Nanyang's veteran family, although they were placed together by Ye Laogeng at the beginning, and the loss was not small, but after that, they have been closely following the pace of the Ye family's technological change, and now they have developed into a situation of both agriculture and manufacturing, and they have a lot of relationships inside and outside the government, in fact, because the Shi family has only followed the Ye family's technological change, although they actually have little cooperation with the Ye family's workshop in other aspects, but if they want to pick themselves out, I am afraid they can't do it, besides, in the case of Ye Tao holding more and more power, Is it necessary to pick it out clearly? The Blood Qi Army, the first army in the world, was formed by Ye Tao, Tan Weiming, Tan Weiran and the generals of the Yunzhou system have many experiences in the Blood Qi Army, and now the backbone officers are all soldiers and non-commissioned officers who grew up in the past, and the Blood Qi Army now has a total of twenty-seven battalions, of which eleven battalions are the old men who experienced the Battle of Baishi City side by side with Ye Tao. To say that Ye Tao has no influence in the Blood Qi Army is to open his eyes and talk nonsense. And what about Qiu Haohui of the Tianxuan Army...... This legendary general, who started from the marching chess competition held in the Yi Zhan Building and entered the military system from the formation of the Blood Qi Army with an internship nature, has a very deep affection for the entire system established by Ye Tao, and has a half-teacher and half-friend relationship with Ye Tao......

After filtering a little in his mind, the power that Ye Tao could grasp, or more or less influence, even Tan Weiran was a little surprised. However, surprise is surprise, but Tan Weiran is not the slightest afraid. Whether it's the fear that he won't be able to grasp it or the fear that Ye Tao will have other ideas, no. They know this brother-in-law too well. Although Ye Tao's power is so huge, he almost never wants to make any power his own, and the entire system of Yunzhou Jingluo Mansion is open to anyone who has the ability, if it is in Chunnan...... Such a great system has long been eroded by the various factions in the struggle, and it is estimated that Ye Tao will not be able to control these huge forces in his hands for a long time. But here, Ye Tao is Guangfeng Jiyue, treating everyone with kindness and trust, he is able to influence everyone, guide everyone, and order everyone with every word. Not to mention that now the big clans of the Wolf Plains such as Golan have a much greater trust in Ye Tao and Ye Tao's family than in the Dongping Imperial Court. As the coach of Jingyunqi, Tan Weiran still sees this very clearly.

"Brother-in-law, it's enough to have your words." Tan Weiran said with a smile: "This matter does not really start to enter into detailed negotiation and implementation every three or five years." How about we take advantage of this time to level the northern grasslands, capture the Northern Liao, and sweep away Xiling's face by the way? When the time comes, it will not be too embarrassing to talk about the merger with us on an equal footing. Tan Weiran seemed very confident, for him, for this person who had long made up his mind to become a powerful auxiliary country, this was the best way for him to ensure his own interests to the greatest extent and ensure the achievements of the African side from the founding of the country to the present.

"Good ......," Ye Tao raised his eyebrows. It was not easy for him to say this good word. Ye Tao knew that it was unlikely that he would be able to destroy Northern Liao in three or five years, and the current Yunzhou might not have this kind of military strength, and the Dongping Dynasty was now beginning to develop towards a strange situation, and he did not dare to guarantee that he would be able to get enough support.

While Ye Tao and Tan Weiran were chatting about the problem of not being able to see various signs and phenomena in a few years or even more than ten years, Chi Lei was worried about how to deal with the enemy in front of him. After several reflexive battles, the 20,000 elite cavalry under Golan's command were connected to the northern grasslands, and Chi Lei no longer worried about his flank. Both the Gaza tribe and the Kyrgyz tribe had already submitted to Dongping, and both had sent envoys and hostages in his military camp, and he had already honestly and unceremoniously asked the two tribes for 20,000 cavalry to cooperate in the battle. The Kolka tribe has already been attacked internally and externally, losing two battles, and is now struggling with the question of whether to surrender unconditionally. However, Chi Lei's big trouble now is that he has to deal with more than 90,000 sand pirates. The sand pirates were not as terrible as the tribesmen suggested, poorly equipped, poorly trained and disciplined. However, the number of sand pirates is really large. The troops that Chi Lei has at the front line, even if you add the Gaza tribe and the Kyrgyz tribe to help in the war, will not be used at all, and the troops are less than 100,000. However, behind the 90,000 sand thieves in front of them, according to the reconnaissance of the airship team, there are more sand thieves moving closer here, and the rich grassland is too tempting for these sand thieves who are begging for a living in the vast land full of wind and sand.

"Defensive...... How can I defend ......" Chi Lei did not question Ye Tao's original order, but Ye Tao and the others obviously did not expect that the sand thieves would be crazy to this point, and would create such a force of hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people to carry out a tragic war of attrition. If the current strength is used to hold on to the stubborn position, once the supply of ordnance and fire oil bombs is cut off, and once any aspect is broken, I am afraid it will be an irreparable situation. Chi Lei gritted his teeth, his eyes were red, and a strong murderous aura came out of his body.

"Damn, I'm not defensive. …… The heavy equipment battalion, the baggage battalion, and a light infantry battalion remained to continue the original plan, and the defense assistance was entrusted to the Gaza and Kyrgyz tribes. The rest of the departments, give me immediate equipment, and we will pull out the camp overnight. I'm not going to wait for someone to fight, I'm going to see who's ruthless. Since the sand thieves are not afraid of death, Lao Tzu has to see how far they are not afraid of death. Chi Lei viciously ordered. Although he has been in the army for so long, Chi Lei really rarely speaks one by one.
