Su Qin stayed in the city of Barona of the Hun for nearly ten days, during which he successively visited Doni, who was in charge of internal affairs, Miser who was in charge of administrative affairs, and Bessan, the general of the expedition to the south.

Su Qin finally met with the Great Chief Wadeya, and with the support of the three of them and Watt, although a fierce quarrel broke out in the hall, the two sides finally reached an agreement. Of course, Su Qin also made considerable concessions according to Qin Du's authorization, agreeing not to form an alliance with the five countries of the Western Regions, not to interfere with the use of troops by the Huns against the five countries of the Western Regions, and to promise not to provide military assistance to the five countries of the Western Regions for a period of ten years.

The conclusion of this agreement has eliminated the hidden dangers of the northern trade route and also cleared the obstacles to the further economic development of the northwest. However, the recognition of the Huns' right to freely dispose of the states in the Western Regions also put Qin Du in a rather passive position, not only could the alliance not be realized, but also posed a huge obstacle to the westward development of Qin Dui's power.

When Su Qin completed his mission and returned to Tokugawa to report to Qin Du about the negotiations, Qin Duan expressed his satisfaction with Su Qin's success, but he also asked how to break this deadlock if he wanted to expand his power to the west in the future, Su Qin replied with a smile: "The five countries of the Western Regions were originally lukewarm about our alliance, but now that they have seen the growth of our strength, they have become enthusiastic again, and we don't need to feel any guilt about this." ”

"As for the future situation, when the five countries of the Western Regions can no longer bear the oppression of the Huns, although we have a treaty stipulating that we cannot form an alliance with them, if they are willing to submit to us, it will not be considered an alliance, it will be our own territory. Of course, aggression by foreign forces cannot be tolerated. If a war is triggered, it is not us who is to blame. ”

"And I think that's a few years from now, when things change and no one can predict what will happen." This remark made Qin Duan and Zhuge admire not only admiration, but also admired Su Qin's kung fu in word games.

"Zhuge Fang, how are things going?" There were only two people in the room. Qin Duan's expression was very strict, and he didn't have his usual casual appearance at all.

"The progress is smooth, and the Fifth Division of the Second Army Corps arrived at the garrisoned fortress in the northern part of Tokugawa -- the town of Dajian Furnace -- three months ago, and has basically completed the adaptation training, and its combat effectiveness has also improved rapidly."

After a pause, Zhuge Fang continued: "The first, second, third, and fourth divisions of the Second Army have completed all kinds of preparations, and the supplies have been prepared, and the morale is quite high, just waiting for the task to be issued. ”

"Hmm. According to the intelligence, Loulan's capital Robin City is afraid that there will be a big earthquake soon, and Brundtland has basically completed the deployment during this time, and it may be about to start. However, the party of Sherlock and Mandic, who were loyal to Ban Otto IV, also seemed to be aware of it, and they were also active in the past two days, and it seemed that they were also preparing to fight to the death. By the way, Emilian, the defender of Manlong City, also jumped up and down, and his appearance was quite eye-catching. But I always feel that this guy is too prominent, and there are some elements of performance. To be honest, I'm skeptical of his motives. Qin Duan's tone was full of suspicion.

"Do you suspect that Emilian is fighting back?" Zhuge was also taken aback when he heard it.

"Yes, I was a little skeptical when Jin Ning reported to me at the beginning, but now this guy has deepened my thoughts." Qin Duan nodded.

"If that's the case, Brundtland won't have to do much to wipe them out. Brundtland's trick was vicious enough to capture all the opponents hiding in the shadows in one fell swoop. High, really high! "Zhuge Fang admires Brundtland's old spiciness." However, he can ignore the Pashas, Kutuzov is not a good man, once the army is raised, it must be a deliberate move, and the Komini take advantage of the fire to rob. It seems that Loulan is in danger! ”

"Well, I think the same way, so we have to hurry up our preparations, otherwise it will be slow, and I'm afraid we won't even be able to drink the soup in one gulp.

Although the intelligence now indicates that the main force of the Pasha is still in their south, I am sure that this is only an illusion, and that their main force must have moved to the border with Loulan, and that their army will swoop down with lightning speed if the war breaks out. ”

"Brundtland is not a weak person, decades of preparation, coupled with the geographical advantage, it may not be easy for the Pasha people to succeed in one fell swoop, but the Loulan people would never have dreamed that the Pasha people would collude with the Komini people and encounter their own civil strife, this battle is really difficult to say." Zhuge Fang sighed a little.

"Hehe, Zhuge Fang, you haven't counted us yet, once we join the battle, I'm afraid Brundtland will shout to the sky."

A mysterious smile appeared on Qin Du's face, "Order the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Divisions of the Second Army Corps to enter a state of combat readiness, the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Divisions to move to the southwest, and the Fourth Division to move westward, and pay attention to the absolute secrecy of the operation." ”

"My lord, I'm afraid it's hard to cover people's eyes and ears with such a large-scale military transfer, and it's difficult to keep it secret." Zhuge Fang objected.

"You can let them move north first, and spread the news that they are going to hold military exercises in the north, and they are making changes in the middle." Qin Duan replied confidently.

"Then my lord, I'll arrange it." Zhuge went out after speaking.

On the first day of September in the sixteenth year of the Apocalypse, a long convoy marched down the wide street, and although it was already September, the weather was not cool at all. Qin Duan sat comfortably on the carriage in the middle, due to the hot weather, the carriage was open, only a canopy on the top to shade it, Qin Duan gently shook the folding fan, and nodded to the people around him. One qiē is so peaceful, one qiē is so quiet, seeing that it is only less than two hundred meters away from the Jiedu Embassy, and the drastic changes occur suddenly.

"Be careful, sir!" Before the words fell, a figure had risen into the sky, facing a black shadow that flew like an arrow from a string.

The black shadow came to the second floor on the left back side, Qin Duan sat on the seat of the car, staring coldly at the black shadow coming in the sky, judging from the figure, it should be a woman, her face was covered by a black veil so that she couldn't see her face clearly.

Soaring into the sky was Qin Dui's Guards Wing Captain Song Tianxiong, he didn't have time to react, roared, instinctively caught up, and even the knife on his waist didn't have time to pull out, and the splitting surface was the three consecutive strikes in the Demon Suppression King Kong Fist, but the black shadow's body was slippery and abnormal, and he was able to make a strange continuous twist in the air, avoiding the two punches that broke through the air, and was finally hit by the third punch in the shoulder, but Song Tianxiong's punch in a hurry was less than three successes, and it did not have much impact on the black shadow, and the black shadow snorted lightly, The long sword clenched in both hands was glowing with a hint of coldness, as if the air around it was about to condense, drawing a beautiful silver arc of light, heading straight for Qin Dusk.

At the same time, a soft "pop" sound came from the mouth of the black shadow that came in the sky, and a blue-gray shadow erupted from her mouth. (To be continued......)
