When Caron was arranged by the reception staff to rest, Wu Feng immediately summoned Liang Chongxin and Cui Wenxiu to discuss the matter. When Ling Tianfang finished introducing the whole matter and explained the original and Wufeng's original opinions, Wufeng didn't say a word, just motioned for the two to think carefully. After a long time, Wu Feng sighed softly, "Oh my God, I think we may have thought too much about it on the way back at first, it seems that this Chidi King Muruya and the envoy Karon are not weak, and it seems that our alliance with them is no longer important." ”

Wu Feng's words not only surprised Ling Tian, but even Liang Chongxin and Cui Wenxiu were also surprised. Ling Tianfang gave a detailed introduction to the current situation in combination with his and Wu Feng's original considerations, and both of them agreed with Ling Tianfang and Wu Feng's opinions, why did Wu Feng suddenly retreat again?

Seeing that the three of them all looked suspicious, Wu Feng waved his hand, "I didn't mean to give up dealing with the Chidi people, but I have some new ideas." Don't say anything just yet, and when I'm alone to think about it, you sit here for a while. After saying that, Wu Feng left the meeting room alone, and walked towards the garden in the castle guard mansion with his hands behind his back.

Based on the eagerness shown by Caron, it seems that the Chidi must have a real battle with the Ropes within this year, otherwise they would not have been so eager to find allies. The problem is that now their own strength is definitely not on the table, and a discerning person will know it at a glance, not to mention that the so-called covenant is just a few words on a piece of paper, and whether or not they can abide by the provisions of the covenant depends on their respective circumstances at the time, if necessary, even if there is no such thing, the same thing that should happen will happen, and with this thing, if it is not good for itself, it will be left behind, which is very clear to the Chidi people themselves, politics is so ugly, and everything must be subordinated to the interests of the country. Wu Feng walked silently on the garden path.

However, since the Chidi people sent to the door, it is impossible to say that they do not cooperate, if it is really as they imagined, a big war will break out between the Chidi and the Luope, he can use this opportunity to think of some other ways to contain the strength of the Luopi people, try to delay this inevitable war with the Luopi people, and buy himself more time to prepare. Thinking of this, Wu Feng's mind suddenly brightened that as long as he had one more year, his grasp would increase exponentially.

Back in the living room, the three people who were meditating in the living room found that after a while, their boss seemed to be a different person, and the somewhat depressed mood disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by the momentum that dominated the world.

"My idea just now has not been fully considered, let you wait for a long time, now I have a preliminary plan, and I would like to hear your opinions, today's visit of Karon, I think it is actually an omen, that is, a sign that the Chidi people are about to do something to the Luope people. And I judge that this Karon has been authorized by their king to form alliances with other forces, which means that the war will happen by this year at the latest, and we urgently need a buffer time to accumulate strength and strengthen ourselves, only then can we truly gain a foothold in this fast land. Wu Feng's face had completely regained that confident look.

"This also gives us an opportunity, if the Chidi can really fight with the Luopi, it will inevitably contain a considerable amount of the Luope's energy, if we can supplement it with other means, maybe we can avoid fighting the Luope this year, so that we can win an extra year of rest, and our chances will be much greater. Therefore, we must make some preparations to convince the Chidi that we are capable of fighting the Lope, so that they can have more confidence in the war of the Lope. It doesn't matter if you are aligned or not, it's important to convince the Chidi that we can help them contain some of the Rope's forces. Of course, we also have to prepare for the worst. Wu Feng made a conclusion with confidence. "In addition, Chongxin and Wenxiu went down to make preparations, I am going to let Caron take a look at the training of our army, although we are not numerous, but the combat effectiveness must be reflected. ”

When Liang and Cui left, Wu Feng asked Ling Tianfang, who had not opened his mouth, "Tianfang, what do you think?"

"I think that since the Chidi people have made up their minds to fight a war with the Luopi people, it is secondary to whether or not to form an alliance with us, they mainly want to seek some forces to contain the power of the Luope people, we should still focus on strengthening our own strength, of course, it is also necessary to take some means to contain the Luope people in many ways. But according to the current situation, even if there is a war between the Luope and the Chidi, they still have enough strength to deal with us, so we still have to plan carefully to avoid this phenomenon. Ling Tianfang was quite thoughtful, and even Wu Feng nodded again and again when he heard it.

"Yes, that's something we have to deal with. ”

The next day, Liang Chongxin accompanied the special envoy Chidi to observe the training of the two garrison divisions, and told Caron that because he was out on the task of suppressing bandits, the troops of one division had not yet returned, and Caron did not say anything. Afterwards, Caron said that he was basically satisfied with the combat effectiveness of the army in Qingyang Province, but the overall strength was far from enough, and whether to form an alliance still needed to be reported to Muruya after going back, and Wu Feng said that it was not important whether to form an alliance or not, the important thing was that we had a common enemy, as long as we cooperated with each other and responded to each other, we could cause great pressure on the enemy.

Seeing that Wufeng was not very enthusiastic about the alliance, Caron's heart was very strange, he thought that Qingyang's side was in urgent need of foreign aid, and he should be very enthusiastic, but the situation did not seem to be like this, after listening to Wufeng's words, Caron had a realization, and said that he would go back to report to the king, and study it carefully, and also said that he would come to Qingyang again in two months.

As of the end of February, that is, in the short period of more than 10 days after Wufeng returned to Qingyang, more than 8,000 people moved into Qingyang Prefecture to settle down, and nearly 10 large and small workshops and shops also opened, and the whole Qingyang showed a thriving scene. Municipal construction has also begun to enter the stage of large-scale construction, and the construction of irrigation channels in the countryside has also been gradually pushed forward, especially the city wall of the city is in the first place. Due to the timely arrival of funds, the entire Qingyang Mansion is a boiling construction site, full of busy people.

The number of personnel participating in the army has also increased by a large margin, and the number of personnel in each garrison division has been increased to nearly 9,000, but due to the replenishment of a large number of new soldiers, the already lacking number of grass-roots officers has become even more lacking, and the combat effectiveness has not increased much, but has declined somewhat. Liang Chongxin and Cui Wenxiu also personally went into battle every day to supervise the training, striving to improve the combat effectiveness of the troops in the shortest possible time.

After a lot of meticulous and arduous work, the intelligence officers under Mo Lun finally discovered the supply points of the two bandit organizations, the "Purple Turban Bandits" and the "Black Tiger", in Bonan Province and Luzon, and discovered the bases of the two organizations. Without further ado, Wu Feng immediately issued an order, ordering Liang Chongxin to lead the 1st Garrison Division to Wild Boar Ridge immediately to deal with the "purple turban thieves"; ordered Cui Wenxiu to immediately lead the 2nd Garrison Division to the border with Luzon to annihilate the "Black Tigers" and sent his own personal guards to participate in assisting the two divisions.

The sky was as black as if it were splashed with ink, and it was only through the occasional flash of phosphorescent light that a long procession could be seen silently marching along the rugged mountain road. "How?"

"Report to the division commander, the eight dark stakes have been uprooted by us, and the outflanking teams have been arranged in place, just waiting for our side to do it. An officer with an excited look on his face was reporting to Liang Chongxin.

"Is there any movement from the enemy?" Liang Chongxin was very calm.

"No, they haven't noticed anything abnormal, but they have to change shifts every hour, and they have added double guards in the past two days, so it seems that the enemy is still vigilant. Seeing that his boss was calm, the reporter also felt that he was too excited, and his surging heart gradually calmed down.

"Well, it seems that the enemy is quite alert, and may have smelled something, but that's the end of it. Order the troops to prepare and listen to my orders. Liang Chongxin's eyes showed a cold look as if a hungry wolf smelled blood.

This is the only slightly flat area in the entire Boar Ridge, and the Purple Turban Thieves have built it as a base camp. At the four corners of the sturdy fence are towering watchtowers, and there are no weeds and shrubs for dozens of meters outside the fence, they are all cleaned up, and several blazing torches on the watchtower illuminate this open area as if it were day, and on each watchtower there are three sentry sentry staring wide-eyed, vigilantly looking downward.

It seems that it is definitely impossible to touch it quietly, time is pressing, in case the enemy finds that there is a problem with the secret post on the periphery, it will be difficult to do, Liang Chongxin came to the hidden area close to two hundred meters away from the guard tower and carefully observed, he couldn't wait any longer, he stood up decisively, and with a wave of his hand, countless figures were like tigers out of the cage, quickly pounced on the quiet place.

The round-faced middle-aged man rushed out of the tent and found that there was a field of torches around the camp, and the enemy was pouring into the camp like a tide, "Big brother, big brother, what should I do now?" The young man with a full face couldn't hide his panic.

"What should I do? How do I know what to do? I told you to leave and leave, but you didn't want to, and now I finally asked someone to trap me. The round-faced middle-aged man scolded the young man while trying to find a gap. "Command all the brethren to rush to the east, and then go out, and if they can rush out, they will meet at the foot of Mantou Mountain, which is outside the town of Mak in Bonan Province. ”

"Big brother, can't you fight hard?" the young man was still a little unwilling.

"You don't have a long brain, the enemy is obviously a long-term design, and the hands that are only used after they have been arranged, you look at the torches around you, and you still want to fight, you are afraid of a long life! Then he lowered his voice and ordered the young man, "You go and call Zhou Kui and the others, and we will leave through the dark passage." ”

"Big brother?" the young man looked at the round-faced middle-aged man with a surprised face.

The look of regret on the round-faced middle-aged man's face flashed away, followed by a cold look stabbed at the young man's face like a knife, "Don't go quickly!"

The young man hesitated for a moment, but under the forced gaze of the round-faced middle-aged man, he turned around painfully and carried out the order.

The defensive line of the bandits in the cottage was quickly breached, and the bandits, frightened by the bloody massacre, had to surrender, and all but a few bandits who held out to the end had subsided.

"Hey, what's the matter, are you still going to resist to the end?" Liang Chongxin led several officers to the bandits who were besieged in the middle, and carefully looked at one of the young men with obvious spots on his face, "Your boss has already abandoned you and fled, is it worth resisting in the end?"

The few people who were surrounded in the middle found that except for a few of them, all the other places had been calmed down, and a group of prisoners had been escorted and marched down the mountain. The originally high fighting spirit withered in an instant, and the man with a spotted face. looked at the two comrades-in-arms around him who had already shown desperate looks, sighed, and finally dropped the big axe in his hand and grabbed it.
