In fact, it did not take long to negotiate, but in the process of negotiating, Zhao Wu and Youxiang needed to constantly collect information from all parties to understand the attitude of those powerful families in each city towards the imminent rule of the Night Kingdom. For this reason, the right minister also sent a message to those families as an envoy of the night country, and naturally received many replies in the past month. The variety of responses was the crux of their discussions.
"It may be that the adults need to make some preparations before actually subduing those places," the specific reason is naturally unknown.
"Well," Lin Xuanzhong nodded thoughtfully, not wanting to bother with these things that had nothing to do with him.
"Qingfeng, do you want to see Brother Ming?"
"Isn't it impossible to leave the barracks? Is there any way you can get out?"
"No, after half a month, the army will relax its management, and as long as there are people in each battalion who know each other, they can visit each other. "Explain to Lin Xuanzhong, Da Niu thinks that it is a good opportunity for them to see Lin Xuanzhong's true strength.
If it was a fight with Ming Buregret, even if Lin Xuanzhong was defeated, he would not be injured, so Da Niu was counting on Lin Xuanzhong to be interested in it.
"I see, then I can go to find Brother Ming, but it's a pity that Qingyi is in another army now. ”
"It's nothing, Qingyi is a commander of a thousand soldiers, and in any army, he will live better than us. As soon as his tone changed, Da Niu continued: "Presumably, two months have passed, and Brother Ming's strength has also improved. ”
Suddenly thinking of this, Da Niu said, and this is indeed very possible. Lin Xuanzhong also believed that he had no regrets in the riding camp, and he also had a lot of competitions with others. In fact, in private, there are more people in the cavalry camp who like to find people to fight than in the infantry battalion, so the two of them are right.
"Qingfeng, why don't you point me and Dahu again, I see that I and Dahu are far worse than you!" Due to the number of times he watched the competition, Da Niu became more and more aware of the difference in strength between different ranks, and Lin Xuanzhong's existence was simply a special case. There was no third-order martial cultivator in the barracks who could sweep away the crowd of fourth-order martial cultivators, so as at the beginning, Lin Xuanzhong was fully qualified to guide them.
It's just that in the past month or so, Lin Xuanzhong has instructed the two of them many times, except for the body method, everything else that can be taught has been taught, and he really can't come up with some new things.
On the other hand, Da Niu and Da Hu still have a lot to learn and have not learned well, and it is not meaningful to point them out now, Lin Xuanzhong decided to wait until the strength of the two of them has improved to a certain level.
"Not for the time being," shaking his head, Lin Xuanzhong decisively rejected Da Niu's proposal, and then continued: "But I can accompany you to practice." ”
The time away from the army is getting shorter and shorter, and a sense of urgency is slowly emerging, and it has been too boring to practice alone recently, so Lin Xuanzhong wants to train with the two brothers and relax and relax.
"Okay, let's start quickly," Dahu was very happy to cultivate with Lin Xuanzhong, which was actually a kind of guidance. So, it didn't take long for the three of them to compete with each other with their weapons.
At the same time, in Xilan City, Zhao Wutong Youxiang and many civilian and military generals were discussing the matter of sending troops and subduing land acquisition. The various opinions from the subordinates below made Zhao Wu and Youxiang's thoughts a little confused.
In terms of military affairs, some people are the main battle, and some people are the main surrender, and it is best if you can surrender the army without a fight. The Night Country now has the strength to persuade the Snow Country to surrender, and it also has the strength to defeat the Snow Country, and from the current situation, the Snow Country has no reinforcements, which makes the Night Army completely in the upper hand. If the Snow Nation doesn't want to fight again, the Night Nation is indeed a way for them to preserve the royal bloodline.
In the conquest of Xindi, some people wanted to subdue the opposition forces by force, and some people wanted to persuade the local people not to resist. In fact, the opinions from those large and small families in the Snow Country were also very messy, and for Zhao Wu and Youxiang, all kinds of opinions were the factors that affected their decisions, so the negotiations went very slowly.
On the other hand, whether it is sending troops to Zephyr City or receiving those cities, the Night Army needs to make a lot of preparations, so it really doesn't take a long time to say that more than a month.
At present, Zhao Wu has got some information about the battle between Lei Guo and Gu Guo, a month later, the war between Lei Guo and Gu Guo has not made substantial progress, Zhao Wu has not been long after conveying the message of letting Lei Guo contain Gu Guo, and now he has received a message from Lei Guo for help from Night Country.
Presumably, Lei Guo wants to make progress in the battle between itself and Gu Guo, which is not a bad thing for the Night Country, Zhao Wu has already planned to send an army over to help in the war, of course, it will not be Zhao Wu himself who will lead the troops.
In the long run, helping the Thunder Kingdom end the war with the Valley Country will benefit the Night Country and the Thunder Kingdom army in the future. Since it is an ally Zhao Wu who is still obliged to come to help, there is no problem in this regard.
It's just that judging from the information from the Thunder Country, the Thunder Country is not in a hurry to ask the Night Country to send troops, and there is no request in terms of numbers, so Zhao Wu still wants to think about it for a while, after all, the Snow Country has not been completely defeated at the moment.
In addition, the spies sent by Zhao Wu to various cities in the Snow Country also brought back a lot of information about bandits and beasts. During the war, the Snow Country put all its military strength on the war, and there was no manpower to be responsible for bandits and beasts, so all parts of the Snow Country were also full of disasters.
Banditry is not too much of a problem, it's just that some bandit organizations are causing chaos. As for the beast plague, the loss of the protection of the army in the places where some fierce beasts frequently invaded the territory, as well as the inability of all forces to unite in the war, also appeared frequently, causing great distress to the ordinary citizens of the Snow Country. At this moment, in the conference hall, a high-ranking cadre of the Night Country is discussing this matter.
"According to the right minister's opinion, does the night army need to help the snow country to exterminate the beasts and bandits?" Zhao Wu sat in the main seat with the night country army, and sitting opposite them was the right minister of the night country, about fifty years old, wearing a printed robe, his hair was raised high, his two eyebrows were light and straight, a pair of sharp eyes pierced the world, he had a long beard, and his whole temperament was calm and abnormal, and he obviously had the kind of temperament that belonged to the literati.
If you look at it purely from the temperament of the right phase, the right phase of the night country is like a scribe and has nothing to do with martial arts. If you look at the momentum of the right minister, the aura of the body is not weaker than Zhao Wu at all, and the two are on an equal footing.
"According to the original opinion, the night army should slaughter bandits and beasts for those places to ensure local stability," in the face of Zhao Wu's inquiry, the right minister expressed his opinion without thinking too much.
"I don't know if the right minister has ever thought that if you want to suppress bandits or exterminate beasts, you should send an army, shouldn't the night army regard the attack on Zephyr City as the main thing?"
"The strength of the Snow Country is no longer a concern, and according to the information received by the Prime Minister, the Qingyuan Great Power has not been able to transfer troops from the rear of the Snow Country and other countries. As long as the marshal is confident, our army can be divided into several parts and sent out at the same time!"
"There must be a reason for the right minister to say this, I wonder if the right minister can explain it?"
"Although our army has eliminated the main military force of the Snow Country, the local forces are still not to be underestimated, presumably our army's massacre of hundreds of thousands of troops in the Snow Country has made the people of the Snow Country hostile to our Night Country, and there are some obstacles for us to subdue those places. ”
"If our army can send troops to help them eliminate beasts and bandits, it can prove that our army intends to get close to them, and then use this to eliminate the hostility of the people of Snow Country to our army, which is conducive to controlling Snow Country in the future, I don't know what the marshal thinks?"
"Recently, we have received no less than ten pieces of news about beasts and bandits, ranging from several garrisons of our army, and the severity of the problem is different, if our army wants to divide its troops, it will take at least tens of thousands of troops, this matter is difficult for the marshal to decide for the time being, I don't know what to think about the matter of asking for help from Lei Guo?"
In fact, Zhao Wu originally planned to send troops to aid the Thunder Kingdom, and the time to send troops was before the battle in Zephyr City. Zhao Wu is not very sensitive to the division of troops, as long as the current situation is clear, the division of troops is indeed a good choice.
"Does the marshal want to transfer troops to aid the Lei Kingdom?" raised his eyebrows, and a smile appeared at the corner of the mouth of the right prime minister with a calm expression. "According to my opinion, there is no need to rush to the aid of Lei Country, at least our army must be able to stabilize the rear first. Now that the situation in the Snow Country is in turmoil, although our army has implemented benevolent government in Xilan City, this city alone is not enough to make the civilians of the Snow Country see our intentions, and once the disaster in the Snow Country becomes serious and forces a large number of citizens to leave their original residences, it will give rise to two situations. ”
"One is that the civilians of the Snow Country are angry with the enemy and drive our night army out of the country, which is very detrimental to our country's establishment of administrative institutions and jurisdiction over the snow country in the future;
"The right minister Gao saw that this matter was indeed ill-conceived, and he failed to think that the snow country would be my country in the future. If this is the case, our army should do everything in its power to deal with the scourge before it becomes more serious. ”
"It's naturally best if the marshal can understand my intentions, after all, the sooner this matter is handled based on the situation in our night country, the better. Nodding at Zhao Wu, the right minister said very politely: "If the marshal has no opinion, we can continue to discuss how to solve those troubles." In fact, the matter of how to fight the troops, the prime minister has already calculated. ”
Next, the right minister explained in detail to Zhao Wu and everyone present how many armies should be sent, what the strength of each army was, and how many generals led it, which area to start from, which area to end, and which places did not need to go.
Originally, when Zhao Wu was talking to the right minister, others had no right to interject, but now everyone can only listen to the right minister's opinion.
