Volume II: The Battlefield of the Western Regions

Chapter 81: The Situation in the Western Regions

Western Regions, Qiuzi City. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

As an important hub city in the Western Regions, Qiuci City has extremely developed commerce, whether it is the Hui merchants from the Central Plains Empire, or the chambers of commerce of the Aryan countries in the west, or the Buddhist merchants of the Tianzhu Kingdom in the south and the Hu merchants of the Greek city-states in the southwest. They all converge in the countries of the Western Regions, which is not small or small, which also creates a highly developed commercial civilization in the countries of the Western Regions.

If we look at the entire continental plate, the geographical location of the countries of the Western Regions is very important, it is located at the center of the four major civilizations of the continental plate. If you get this land, you will not only have the abundant products and resources of the countries in the Western Regions, but also give full play to the characteristics of a transportation hub and obtain a large amount of tariff revenue economically. Militarily you can attack any other civilization, and retreat to defend your own territory.

If there are any drawbacks!

That's no danger to keep!

Most of the area here is plains, and there are small deserts.

In particular, the Tacheng Desert, which is about 10 million square kilometers longitudinal and horizontal, can be called the largest desert in the Western Regions.

Above the countries of the Western Regions, there is the legendary fog of no return.

Legend has it that anyone who enters the fog of no return will disappear forever. There were even some people passing by the fog of no return who heard some extremely terrible sounds.

All those who heard this voice swore that it was the wailing of the evil spirits in hell, and the Buddha said that the souls of all the dead would enter the world after the fog of no return, where people would be judged according to their merits during their lifetimes.

Maybe it's the eighteenth layer of hell that will be brutally tortured for the rest of your life.

Maybe it's to ascend to the eighteenth level of heaven and enjoy a happy life for the rest of your life.

So whenever the fog of non-return is mentioned, everyone is in awe.

But now the situation seems to be a little different, since the beginning of spring this year, the fog that has existed for thousands of years has begun to lighten, this dilution has lasted for three months, according to this dilution trend, it is estimated that the fog will completely dissipate in another month, which makes the people of the Western Regions extremely frightened.

Some people say that the people of the Western Regions have made mistakes, and the gods will punish them;

Some people say that some people in the Western Regions have great merits, and the gods will reward them.

There are hundreds of theories about the fog of non-return, and each has its own basis.

At this time, in the private room on the third floor of Qiuci Restaurant, the largest restaurant in Qiuzi City, a group of people with a different appearance and clothing from the people around them were watching the crowd below with interest.

"This is a good place to be!" A bald man raised his head and took a sip of wine and said approvingly.

"Captain, this girl from the country of Guizi is really good-looking! You see.. A slightly obscene-looking man looked at the girl walking on the street with hot eyes, and pointed to one of the women with a snow-white complexion, with a ** color on her face.

"Look at this, convex and backward, white and beautiful, oops! Especially the style of a mature woman, captain, this is the best! ”

"Rhaeggar, Commander Rand didn't let us see the beauties!" The bald man's voice was tinged with caution.

"Captain, don't I just talk about it?" Rhaegar said awkwardly.

"Captain, nothing else. Although our Seventh Fleet has only just developed a tank that can be used here, with the strength of the Western Regions countries, it is easy to take it down. A tall man with deep facial features next to the lewd man changed the subject and gave Rhaegar a step down.

"That being said, let's not take it too seriously." Captain Udi nodded and spoke to a tall man.

"So be it! You'll report back to Captain Rand later, and suggest that Commander Rand send his troops over as soon as possible, as there is a shortage of water here in the summer. ”

"Captain, what the hell is the fog of no return that the people here have been talking about, should I send someone to take a look!" Next to the tall man, a man with delicate facial features and glasses that gave people an elegant feeling pushed his glasses and asked.

This person's name is Sha Rui, and he is a research member of the Interstellar Alliance's highest life research institute, and it is said that he is the youngest member of the life research institute in a hundred years. Regarding this person, the evaluation of the dean of the Academy of Science and Technology of the Interstellar Alliance is only two words.

Talented!

Unlike people like Rand who climb up the ladder by background and resume, Sha Rui doesn't care about these fictitious things. In fact, his temporary transfer to the Seventh Fleet this time was completely his personal will, and it was also his will to come to the countries of the Western Regions.

To be precise, the top of the Interstellar Alliance doesn't care who is leading, they only care about the research results of these top scientists.

So even Rand, the deputy commander of the Seventh Fleet (due to the excellent completion of the mission, coupled with the efforts of the family behind him, Rand was promoted to deputy commander!) ), helpless against Sha Rui's behavior of his own will.

However, Rand has already given a death order to the captain Liang's subordinates, and he must ensure Sha Rui's safety.

As a result of not completing the task, in addition to squatting in a military prison for the rest of his life, his family will also be implicated.

For the words of this great god, even if the good family didn't think so, he was extremely polite on his lips.

"Mr. Sha Rui, the fog of no return may be too damp to form, and as for the people who go in and can't come back, I think it may be because of the poisonous gas in those fogs."

Sha Rui pushed his glasses, with a mocking smile on his face:

"Captain Liang, I think I know better than you the reasons for the possible existence of these fogs, in fact, in addition to what you said, there are seven possibilities I can think of."

After speaking, Sha Rui shook his head and continued:

But none of the seven explains the slow disappearance of the fog. Also, Mr. Ryoji, the Western Regions are a water-scarce place, so this fog can't be what you said. ”

Ryoshi sat there a little embarrassed, not knowing how to answer.

Sha Rui didn't consider his feelings at all, and continued to say to himself:

"So be it! Captain, in my name, you ordered the commander to come over in person, by the way, bring the most elite mechanized troops! ”

"Commander Rand came here in person, and brought the most elite mechanized troops, Mr. Sharui, this... Isn't that a bit of a fuss! "Liang is about to scold his father in his heart at this time. This place is not normal, and there is a strange fog that is normal. Wasn't there a lot of strange things in Tianzhu? Why didn't I see you treated like this!

Sha Rui raised his head slightly, his aggressive gaze stared directly at Rand, and his tone was a little colder:

"Captain, just do it!"

"Good, good! I'm going to let people go back! Liang was looked at by Sha Rui like this, and his heart suddenly lost confidence. The people who can become members of the Seventh Fleet are not the elites of the elites, but the problem is that some elites are not only elites, but also elites with backgrounds. But he is not one of them, he is also thirty years old this year, and he is definitely a super talent outside, but at the age of thirty, he knows very well that he, the so-called super talent, is nothing in the eyes of the high-level, and someone can replace him at any time!

In order to sharpen his head and get into the Seventh Fleet, he didn't know how much it cost him, and he used almost all of his connections. Now, if you offend an irreplaceable genius like Sha Rui, you are simply looking for death.

Saint-Lôte de l'Opéra, École de Saint-Lôte.

Today, the Teatro de l'Opéra de Saint-Los is chartered by a mysterious man, and it is said that whoever is invited is either a celebrity or a powerful man in the area.

But when these people were invited, they showed a sense of flattered surprise one by one.

Among these people, Prince Torg, one of the three crown princes of the famous Holy Sword Legion, is one of them.

Looking at the three invitations in his hand, Tog had a deep sadness on his face.

He looked up and sighed, looked at the bright alchemy lights in the room, and said to himself as if in a dream:

"It's time to stand in line again!"
