While admiring the various elegant buildings in the palace with twists and turns, Wu Feng was also thinking about a few questions that were likely to be raised at the banquet today, since the banquet was not a good banquet, since people had already set down the banquet so ceremoniously and invited themselves to the banquet, in addition to the superficial gratitude, I am afraid that it is more necessary to discuss the next step of the situation dynamics and direction. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Sanssouci Palace, like the royal palaces of other countries, is located in the center of the capital city of Merrington, covering a small area, but the architectural art is quite unique, the whole palace is divided into two parts, the first half is of course the office area for discussing government affairs, and the second half separated by a high palace wall is the harem of Archduke Allen.

Today, however, it seems that Archduke Allen was so pleased that he even set the venue for the banquet in a harem where even the ministers could hardly set foot in it, perhaps thinking that the guests who needed to be entertained were too important to show his respect and gratitude.

Passing through the gate of the magnificent harem, four guards dressed in luxurious ceremonial armor stood up and saluted the distinguished guests, Wu Feng casually talked and laughed with several of his subordinates and walked over under the leadership of the receptionist, to be honest, he was not interested at all in this kind of hypocrisy that obviously imitated some countries in the Western Continent, although this kind of heavy armor was bright in color and looked majestic but not practical at all, and as an infantryman, he held the halberd that should have belonged to the heavy cavalry, which looked even more out of place, of course, he could barely see it when he took it out and displayed his majesty。

However, Wu Feng, who entered the harem, was shocked by the oncoming buildings, which were typical Baroque buildings, with elegant and elegant circular colonnades looking light and lively, and a quiet fountain pool made Xia Yu's heat suddenly disappear.

In the center of the fountain is a half-naked statue of a woman with the glamour of her mother's surname, protecting the little boy under her ribs with one hand and seemingly shielding the water from the fountains around her. The water column comes from the surrounding toad sculptures, and dozens of toads with different expressions are shaped like real things, and the whole scene looks so harmonious and natural, which makes people feel refreshed and happy.

As Wu Feng's footsteps slowed down, the steps of Cui Wenxiu, Kang Jianguo, Song Tianxiong and Sha Lang behind him also slowed down, and the guide officer in front of him also seemed to notice the change, and after looking back, after discovering Wu Feng's abnormality, he proudly introduced: "Lord Li seems to be also interested in the architectural sculptures of the Western Continent? ”

"Oh?" seemed to have just woken up from the dream, Wu Feng shook the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a wry smile: "Well, it's really a masterpiece, and this colonnade and fountain sculpture alone are worth a lot of money, right?"

It's been a long time since I've seen such an authentic baroque building, well, it seems that the colonnade still has a hint of Ionian soft and delicate taste, and at this moment, Wufeng's heart seems to fly back to the time when he studied in Heidelberg in the past, and even his mind seems to be in a trance, but fortunately, the words of the usher's guide called him back from the fugue, and even several subordinates behind him noticed the gaffe of his boss.

"Yes, the Grand Duke is very fond of the Tang River art in the East and the architecture of the Western Continent, and this is also the architectural designer hired by the Famini Empire sent by the Grand Duke to the Western Continent to design, and even the construction workers are invited back from the Western Continent. Seeing that Wu Feng was really interested, the guide hurriedly greeted him and introduced it in detail: "These building materials are all made of high-quality marble, and the sculptures are made of fine carvings of fire jade from the Marston Wasteland. ”

Seemingly not interested in what materials to build, Wu Feng nodded casually, this sculpture is a scene in the mythology of the Western Continent - Latona (Latona) protector picture, Ladona gave birth to a son Apollo for the gods, was expelled from exile by the queen of heaven, had to beg for food from the farmer, the farmer actually spat on her, the god was furious, turned these farmers who did not know the height into toads. This sculpture is also not common in the Western Continent, but there is one on the campus of Heidelberg University, where Wu Feng loved to rest and read in the evening when he was studying at Heidelberg University, enjoying the rare pleasure after a tiring day. The faces of classmates and friends seemed to be a little blurry, but at this moment they became clear again, flashing in their minds like pictures of flowers.

At this time, even the guide saw that the sculpture in front of him seemed to touch something hidden in a corner of Wufeng's memory, and the others waited quietly to the side, waiting for Wufeng's unpredictable face to wake up.

After a long time, Wu Feng waded out of the long river of memory, glanced at the people waiting around him, and said: "Well, everyone has been waiting for a long time, let's go, the Grand Duke and they are probably in a hurry." "After speaking, take the lead and move first.

A group of people exchanged glances with each other, but they didn't say anything, and they didn't know what their boss was touching, so they stood inexplicably by the broken sculpture that didn't understand what the mystery was, but they couldn't see whether the emotions of the adults were good or bad, so they had to follow in a muffled voice.

The banquet began in a celebratory and joyful atmosphere, with staggered and full of wine, and the fragrance of flowers and sideburns was like weaving. The gorgeous and beautiful and slightly provocative palace dance made Wu Feng's generals soar into the sky, and even the well-informed Wu Feng had to admit that Allen, an old guy, had no ability to govern the country, but he was no less than any monarch in terms of enjoyment.

After thirty years of wine, five flavors of food, hot ears and red faces, it seems that all topics have become easy to export, except for the military generals brought by Wufeng, Gerok is accompanied by Minister of Military Affairs Lan Meng and the head of the Jerlock Royal Janissary Guard, the head of the corps - the commander of the corps, Duke Balins, as for Qin Feng, the commander of the Tang River Empire's reinforcements who assisted Duke Ballins in defending the city, was naturally excluded. Just when Archduke Allen and Duke Ramon frequently advised Wufeng to drink, Balins was also subjected to the key "siege" of the allies, and wave after wave of persuasion orders continued to push the banquet to **, almost everyone seemed to have forgotten that in fact, most of the territory of Gerlok was still in the hands of the Kamans, and they enjoyed this rare relaxation.

"Lord Li, the Kaman people are strong and strong, and they are powerful in the Eastern Continent, and they are also kings and hegemons in the Liberian countries, and Lan Meng has also seen a lot of people who know the world, but the combat effectiveness of the Kaman army does make Lan Meng embarrassed, and I saw Lord Li's Northwest Army yesterday to know that the strong have their own strong middle hands This sentence is not false at all, and it is no wonder that the Scaman people are as strong as the Scaman people in front of Lord Li and their heads are bleeding, Lan Meng really admires, come, Lord Li, you and I have done this toast!"

The minister of war, whose face was flushed red and drunk, seemed to be in a good mood, and touched a few glasses with Wufeng, although Wufeng was not good at drinking, but with the suppression of internal force, more than ten glasses of wine were not a problem, and he happily obeyed, and a glass of golden champagne was drunk.

"Hehe, virtuous nephew, your brave generals are like clouds, all of them are both civil and military, no wonder both the Luope people and the Luzon people are bowing their heads in front of them, and now you have defeated Miley, who is known as the Kaman Double Pillar, this is really well-deserved as the first military commander in the Eastern Continent, come, this prince toasts you!" The smiling Grand Duke Allen swept away the previous few days of sorrow and raised his glass with great interest.

"Dagong, you are too famous, the gang of little nephews are all martial artists who don't understand current affairs, where can they be called both civil and military, but they are on the battlefield, it is all your life and death, no one can retreat, just a few victories by luck, I can't count them." Wu Feng knew what the two old foxes had in mind, and pushed the topic away lightly, "Although the Kaman people have retreated north, their strength has not been damaged, and they may make a comeback at any time, and Mai Li is as cunning as a fox, if you want to take advantage of him, it is really difficult to compare to the sky." ”

Alan and Lan Meng quietly exchanged glances, and the Minister of War smiled heartily and said: "Yes, Lord Li, you and the Grand Duke will soon be a family now, the family does not talk to two families, this Gerlok matter is your business, now the Jiama region has been in the hands of the enemy for several years, and the local gentry are looking forward to returning at night; But at present, the empire is powerless, and our hopes can only be pinned on you, so please be sure to support it again. ”

Earnest words, expectant eyes, for a while made Wu Feng, who was paralyzed by alcohol, almost full of promises, but fortunately, Wu Feng has never been in the habit of easily deciding big things, and after pretending to be a deep groan, he is actually carefully thinking about how to deal with it.

"Grand Duke, Lord Lanmeng, it's not that Li Wufeng is unwilling to help your country recover the rivers and mountains, I can understand your feelings, who wants to see their people crying and sinking under the clutches of the invaders, just like Lord Lanmeng said, Gerok and the Northwest should belong to one family, no one has to separate you and me, the matter of Gerok is naturally the matter of the Northwest, that is, the matter of my Li Wufeng. However, the current situation and the next step still need to be carefully analyzed and discussed, the Kamans returned to the north, but they still retained more than 100,000 troops, plus the garrisons in Van Lin and Jiama, more than 200,000 people, do we now have the strength to destroy or defeat them?" There was no direct veto of the proposal, and Wu Feng's face was also filled with righteous indignation, and he only skillfully raised his own question at the end.

Hearing Wu Feng's words, Grand Duke Allen and Duke Lanmont couldn't help but look at each other, and their faces showed extremely disappointed looks, especially Allen, whose face was originally elated immediately became gloomy, and even several generals who were persuading each other to drink on the side also felt the change in the atmosphere here, and quietly lowered their voices.
