"All of you here are members of my Taiping Holy Sect, and the great task of how to turn those ignorant, ignorant, arrogant, and corrupt nobles who rely on sucking the blood of our people into maggots is pinned on you. It is true that the enemy's strength is still strong, but judging from the speed of development of our Holy Sect's strength, it will not be long before our Holy Sect members will usher in an opportunity full of great hope, when the Blue Bird Banner (Note 1) will be planted all over the Eastern Continent, and our heroic and loyal Sect people will surely be reborn in the light. The Mai Scribe's voice gradually changed from low to high-pitched, and his tone was full of strong incitement, and the eyes of the few people under him and the brown-shirted man became feverish with the Mai Scribe's words, as if they were in front of an omnipotent god.

After a slight pause, Mai Scribe's tone became calm, "The situation in the six prefectures of Guanxi County is very good now, Feng Qi, you and your brothers are doing a good job, and the matter of Lujiang has someone from the general altar to help deal with it, and it is not enough to worry about it." Now that the Macede Khanate was fighting the Empire in the south, and the Emperor's [***] army had suffered a series of defeats on the southern border of Wuhu County, and its reputation had plummeted, and there was information that the Fourth Army Corps of the Empire stationed in the Kansai region had also been mobilizing in advance and preparing to go south to join the southern battlefield. If this is true, then in addition to the garrison troops of various prefectures in the entire Kansai region, there is only one reading division regiment army left as a mobile force, and the combat effectiveness of the garrison force in the Kansai region has always been weak, this is a good opportunity for Jiao to seize the opportunity to actively develop, I hope Feng Qiyou and the brothers in the various branches will not miss this good opportunity. ”

Feng Qi understood that he would never live up to the expectations of the Grandmaster. Feng Qi's face was full of red light, and he immediately bowed respectfully to show his obedience.

"Lord Feng, the grandmaster and the eldest young master and I have a certain understanding of the development of the Kansai region in the past few days, and today I listen to your report, it will be clearer, in general, the development situation in the Kansai region in the past year is gratifying, and the achievements are obvious to all, and the hard work of the Lord Feng in the past year is indeed hard work. Next year, that is, 695, will be an extremely important year for our teaching, and looking at the current situation, 695 will also be extremely unstable, and the Kansai disciples should have activities for the surname in this year, so the general altar puts forward several opinions. After the sackcloth scribe and the brown-shirted man had finished speaking, the man in Xuanyi, who was standing on the right side of the lower head, answered.

"Please ask the envoy for instructions. Feng Qi knew that in fact, this man in Xuanyi, who was also the so-called envoy of the Holy Sect, not only had a high status, but was also the manager of specific affairs in the sect, so he didn't dare to be disrespectful in the slightest.

"With regard to the establishment of the armed forces, the general altar believes that we should not rush to seek more, but should adopt a gradual and phased expansion, and the existing armed forces should be strengthened in training so that they can become the backbone of our holy army in the future. At the same time, it is also necessary to combine the cavalry, infantry, and water forces for common development in light of the actual conditions in various localities, and not be limited to the training of the infantry troops. For example, in Lujiang Prefecture, you can tend to focus on the development of naval forces, while Hanzhong is dominated by infantry troops, and Longdong Prefecture can focus on cavalry because of its proximity to the northwest and the more favorable source of horses. Xuanyiren's tone was full of unquestionable taste.

"With regard to the development and expansion of the influence and influence of the Holy Religion in the local area, we should not limit it to the middle and lower strata of the people, but should now also absorb those middle and upper strata who are dissatisfied with the policies of the government, and gradually expand the influence of the Holy Religion in the upper strata, and if necessary, we can adopt various means. People in the Xiangguan government can also conditionally recruit them to participate, but they must pay attention to the ways and means. ”

"We also have to strengthen the storage and preparation of all kinds of important materials, the Xiangbashan branch is very good, not only the establishment of the base, but also the material preparation has been greatly increased, other branches of the altar should be like the Bashan branch to learn, and actively establish a material supply base. ”

"We also attach great importance to intelligence work, and many intelligence surnames are actually no less important than an army. If we can get the information right, then we have a huge head start in many areas. Therefore, we should do everything possible to appoint reliable intelligence personnel and let them infiltrate all levels of the locality, including the government, to obtain favorable information for us. Xuanyi people thought about and sorted out their own ideas, and at the same time combined the opinions of the two people present to put forward ideas for the development of the Kansai region in the coming year.

"In short, the geographical location of Kansai is extremely important, and the officials in this region are greedy for ink, the people live in hardship, they are particularly disgusted with the rule of the government, and they have a strong rebellious feeling, which is very suitable for the development of our religion. The more Xuanyiren's words arrived, the more confident he became.

"Sectarian Zhang's words are also the meaning of this master and the eldest young master, I hope that Feng Qiyou will do your best to complete it and not live up to the expectations of this teacher. The Mai scribe's tone was pertinent and kind, but he had a powerful and incomparable charm, and the few altar masters below Feng Qi were unconsciously solemn, and their eyes were firmly fixed on the thin face of the Mai scribe.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our Taiping Holy Sect has a good momentum of development in various parts of the empire, with 300,000 sect members in Beiyuan and Heshuo counties, and 200,000 sect members in Yanyun and Donghai counties. In the five lakes and five provinces, the situation is equally encouraging, many parishioners have enthusiastically donated money and food, and our material reserves have been greatly increased, all of which have laid a good foundation for our next development. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, the dawn is coming, the dawn is ahead, if the time comes, we ascend to the heights and shout, the people of the world will look at the scenery, the banner of the Holy Religion will be planted all over the empire, and at that time, the rain and dew of the Holy Religion will be all over the world. The Mai scribe slowly stood up, facing out the window, waving his hands in unison, as if to encompass the entire heavens.

After a long journey of ten days, Wu Feng led the Guards Army and the 3rd Division of the Northwest Army Corps to finally return to Qingyang, which had been absent for a long time.

Halfway through Wufeng stayed in Vito City to inspect for a day, the entire Vito Cheng work in all aspects has been fully rolled out, Mu Haoran did not make the slightest pause, once the autonomous political axe was established, it became a rapid operation, he first started the road construction project from Vito City to Qingyang in the northwest.

As a large number of Gaoyue people were allowed to freely migrate to the plains and hilly areas outside the Hengduan Mountains, a large number of Gaoyue people began to migrate to the relatively sparsely populated areas in the northern part of the Vito area.

In a short period of more than 20 days, gratifying achievements have also been made in the military aspect, and the training campaign carried out by the 1st Infantry Division of Reading in Northern Luzon led by Shan Zhu is in full swing, and Shan Zhu has even led the entire Reading Division to conduct military tactical training and individual soldier quality training while leading the troops to conduct two high-intensity field training exercises according to the characteristics of this unit, and the morale of the troops is booming.

On the second day after Wu Feng left, the recruitment notice of soldiers was posted all over the Vito area, and young people of all nationalities enthusiastically signed up, and the number of applicants exceeded 50,000 in just three days, and by the end of the registration time in one week, a total of more than 80,000 people had signed up, and their enthusiasm for joining the army surprised both Sang Sheng and Mu Haoran.

After rigorous selection and examination, a total of more than 30,000 people were eliminated, and more than 20,000 people formed a full-strength garrison division according to the imperial establishment, while the rest entered the reserve forces. As soon as the unit was formed, it first launched a month-long political and ideological education work, and the political education work of this unit was still in progress when Wu Feng returned to the northwest and passed through the inspection, and Wu Feng also made a speech at a meeting of officers and men of the whole division and regiment, encouraging all officers and men to actively devote themselves to training and swear allegiance to the empire and Wu Feng himself.

Wu Feng was quite satisfied with the focus of the work of Shanzhu and Sangsheng, and asked them to strengthen their leadership according to the current model, eliminate interference, and firmly control these two troops, especially the Vito Garrison Division, in their own hands.

On his way back to Qingyang, Wu Feng also secretly met with several elders led by Shi Liu, who were now serving as the town guards of several towns in the Gaoyue area in the eastern part of the Vito region.

When I returned to Qingyang, the time was already the first month of the year 695 of the mainland calendar, and the heavy snow that blew up the entire Qingyang City was dressed in silver, which was extremely enchanting. Back at the Jiedu Embassy, before he had time to catch his breath, Diao Su, the head of the National Security Bureau, came to the door, and Wu Feng, who had planned to make love with his women, had to give up this extravagant hope.

"Diao Su, do you really not understand the customs, or do you deliberately keep bothering me? Knowing that I just came back, you don't give me some time to rest. What's the situation?" Wu Feng, who had a dusty face, lay on his back in the wide tiger skin chair in the study, his feet comfortably cocked on the brocade stool, and half-jokingly.

"My lord, this matter is urgent, and my subordinates dare not delay. Diao Su looked indifferent, without the slightest hint of guilt.

"Oh? While enjoying Guan Yingying's massage on her legs, Wu Feng picked up the teacup and took a sip of strong tea.

"The people in the Phantom Phoenix Sect sent someone to bring a message as early as ten days ago, expressing their willingness to negotiate peace with us. ”

"Hmph, peace talks, the tone is not small, they are not qualified enough! Send a message to them, I must ask their principal to come to Qingyang to ask for guilt, otherwise I will make her Phantom Phoenix Gate difficult to move in this area! In terms of diplomacy, I will let Xiao Tang and them exert pressure on the countries of the Western Regions, I want to see who dares to break ground on the tiger's head. A look of disdain flashed across Wu Feng's face.

"Recently, we have discovered the activities of Taiping followers in Guide and Bonan in the northwest, and their activities are very secretive, but we have a preliminary grasp of their activities in the northwest. According to information from the Kitahara, and Kansai regions, the Taiping Sect was active in these two regions very frequently, and its influence expanded quite rapidly, and even local officials in some areas joined the organization. Diao Su's indifferent face became more and more gloomy.

"Oh, is there such a thing, is the information accurate?" Wu Feng couldn't help but sit up, there were only two people in the room, and Guan Yingying had left before the two of them were talking about business.

"There are absolutely no problems with intelligence. Diao Su has deep confidence in his men.

"What measures did you take?" asked Wu Feng, gently stroking the furry beard under his chin.

"In the northwest, we haven't taken action yet because their activities have just begun, but their every move is under the watchful eye of our people, and we can catch them anytime and anywhere. On the Kansai and Kitahara side, we had some people mixed in, but the organization was so tight that it was never possible to enter their upper echelons, and it would take time and energy. Diao Su's eyes danced with a bloodthirsty light.

"Well, since everything in our territory is under control, we are not in a hurry, strengthen monitoring, and pay special attention to their dealings with the political officials and gentry in our region. In addition, the intelligence of other areas continues to be strengthened, and we strive to enter their upper echelons, pay attention to strict security and confidentiality, and you can only list the necessary funds, and if you have any questions, please contact me directly. Wu Feng's face also became serious.

"The subordinates understand. Diao Su stood up and saluted.

"Go ahead. Wu Feng also stood up and patted Diao Su's shoulder trustingly.

Diao Su left quietly, but there was a warm current in his heart, and he also knew that many people in the political axe had a lot of complaints about him, thinking that the Security Bureau had spent too much money, but it did not play a big role, especially in the last Wufeng assassination, and some people even proposed that the assassination plan still succeeded when they learned the information, and the Security Bureau was suspected of dereliction of duty, which made Diao Su feel great pressure. But Wu Feng is still the same as always, without the slightest sense of reproach, and still fully supports it in terms of funds, which makes Diao Su have the heart to die as a confidant.
