Alien Arms Empire

 Chapter 394 394 World Famous Paintings

"Oh, by the way, Your Majesty, what do you think if Datang Group focuses its development on the west side of the Endless Sea in the future?" Tang Mo asked casually as he was about to walk to the door. One sentence.

Wright VII paused and seemed to be stunned for a second. Then he smiled and said, "We are friends and partners. Since Mr. Tang hopes to open up the west of the Endless Sea, of course I am very supportive. "

Tang Mo could hear sincerity in these words.

There was a surprise that could not be hidden in the other person's eyes, and even Tang Mo could hear the relief and joy in his voice.

"I will give it full consideration." Tang Mo did not continue to say anything, but gave an ambiguous statement.

Wright VII nodded, and then walked out of the room. When he saw his prime minister again, he could not suppress the joy.

"He said... Datang Group is preparing to develop westward..." The two people were strolling in the corridor filled with artworks, and Wright VII couldn't wait to speak.

He didn’t name anyone, but the prime minister naturally knew that he was the Mr. Tang whom Wright VII was talking about, who deserved to be kept secret.

"This is good news for us. If he is willing to go west, then we can devote more energy to enhance our influence on nearby areas." After thinking for a while, the prime minister spoke to Wright Seven Shi said.

Wright VII nodded and agreed with the prime minister's statement: "You are right. If he doesn't express his own thoughts, I and many kings and emperors will not be able to sleep at night."

"This man is too scary. He seems to be only interested in money, but everyone understands that having too much money will cause people to worry." While looking at the famous paintings on the wall, Wright VII said With his own emotions.

The paintings hanging in this corridor were all gifts given to the Datang Group by other kingdoms or forces, or they were used as collateral for the money owed to the Datang Group by some wealthy businessmen.

But even these famous paintings, when brought to the world, are hot and rare objects, and they are all good things that made Wright VII quite envious.

"The crying shepherd woman..." After stopping, Wright VII raised his head, looked at the paintings on the side of the wall, and murmured thoughtfully.

The prime minister was startled for a moment, and then he also saw the famous painting that was obviously just hanging here - in this painting, there was a dwarf aunt wiping tears standing among a group of black sheep that looked like demons.

“The masterpiece of Ironforge, the beloved of Greybeard, the fallen king of the dwarf empire...” The envious voice of Wright VII was filled with sourness.

This painting can be said to be the Mona Lisa in this world, and is almost the most famous ancient painting. Its author was recognized as the world's number one painter thousands of years ago, and this "Crying Sheepherd Woman" is the painter's famous work.

It is said that Greybeard, the last tyrant of the Dwarf King Empire and the emperor who destroyed the empire, liked this painting the most and hung it in the most eye-catching position in the Ironforge Palace Hall.

Thousands of years later, even though the dwarf empire had long since been destroyed, this painting remained in the royal palace of Ironforge, never changing.

 But now, it is hung in Bunas, in an unknown corridor in the VIP area of ​​the Crystal Palace, as if there is nothing special about it.

"Is the dwarf really willing to give this to Tang Mo?" Wright VII asked the prime minister beside him without looking back while looking up at the painting.

The Prime Minister was also extremely shocked, because this was the first time that he felt the bottomless strength of Datang Group so intuitively: "I... don't know either..."

"This is fake." A dwarf with a mustache came over, looked up at this world-famous painting, and said, "It's a replica that is really thousands of years old, and the colors are no longer so bright and bright. ”

His words made the two people who were a little shocked breathe a sigh of relief, because if they really got the "Crying Sheepherd Woman", they would not dare to put it in such a place so blatantly.

"The real one is on Dragon Island." As a result, before the two of them could breathe out the sigh of relief, the dwarf continued: "Mr. Tang likes it very much, so I heard that the one shipped to him is called 'Dragon's Cave'" 'Went to the castle."

"Is the dwarf willing to give it?" the prime minister asked subconsciously in surprise.

"What's the point of not giving up? On the day Ironforge was captured, the people from the Tang Group chose the spoils first." The man replied as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

"Excuse me, who are you?" Wright VII asked curiously.

"Me? My name is Moss, and I am the deputy leader of the Ice Kingdom delegation this time." The dwarf smiled and introduced himself.

"Oh! You are the famous General Moss! Nice to meet you! Nice to meet you!" Wright VII immediately said in surprise.

It is impossible for Wright VII not to know Moss, the famous general of the Dwarf Ice Kingdom, because Moss was the first general of the Ice Kingdom to attack Ironforge. The war he commanded and planned to attack the Northern Dwarf Empire by the Ice Kingdom is a classic and has become a hot topic for commanders from various countries to study.

If any commander today does not know the three famous battles of "Dorne Counterattack", "Gmelin Quick Victory", and "Winter Breaking Ironforge", wouldn't he be ignorant?

 “This is the current king of the Kingdom of Wright!” The Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Wright immediately introduced his monarch.

"I'm really glad to see you! Your Majesty the King!" Moss was also very polite, nodded and then chatted about some random things.

Of course he also knows about Wright VII and the deeds of this monarch - it is estimated that by this time next year, Wright VII will become the real Emperor of the Lions Empire.

The quick victory of Gemelin among the three major battles was the counterattack of the Kingdom of Wright against the Kingdom of Gemelin. In just ten days, a kingdom was completely destroyed. This great victory of the Kingdom of Wright shocked the whole world at that time.

Originally, attending a meeting here is to give each other face, and then everyone can exchange opinions and expand their network of contacts. King Wright still found it very meaningful to be able to chat with the famous generals of the Ice Kingdom.

If it weren't for this exposition, he might never have seen Moss in his life, let alone chat and laugh like this.

 …

In the room where Wright VII left, after testing the other party's reaction, Tang Mo also realized that Datang Group had indeed formed a high pressure within its sphere of influence, which made many people feel uneasy.

Facts have proved that what Nangong Hong said is correct. If the Datang Group makes its westward expansion strategy clear, it will make existing allies breathe a sigh of relief, and it can also unite these countries affected by the Datang Group in a short period of time.

 So, he summoned Harry: "Prepare a map of Zheng that is as accurate as possible, and also...call Chief of Staff Loew and General Tiger to see me."

"Yes!" Harry nodded and went to find the phone.

 Soon, the two of them arrived at the Crystal Palace.

He did not hide his ambitions. When Tiger and Loew entered the room, Tang Mo motioned for them to come closer. Then the two military generals of the Tang Dynasty Group saw the map of Zheng Guo spread on Tang Mo's table.

"If the Datang Group wants to launch an attack on Zheng State on its own... Loew, to what extent do they need to expand the existing troops?" Tang Mo stood next to the map, holding his chin, seeing that it could completely use the vast territory To describe Zheng Guo.

Even if it is just a subordinate state of Dahua, Zheng State itself is a super huge country, with dozens of cities and hundreds of miles in length and breadth, which is only bigger than the Kingdom of Wright.

With thousands of troops fighting on such a huge land, it was a complete joke, so Tang Mo's first thought was to expand the size of his army.

Although the security forces of the Datang Group are elite and can even be equal to ten, their numbers are indeed not enough to maintain the rule of a country.

"Master, from design to training, the Datang Group's security forces are designed to avoid irritating surrounding countries as much as possible. Expanding rashly... may cause unnecessary misunderstandings..." Loew frowned and explained tentatively.

At first sight of the map, Loew recognized that it was the map of the Zheng State. Recently, the Datang Military Academy’s war games have used maps of the Zheng State several times.

 So, he knew this map very well, and the moment he saw this map, he seemed to understand the reason why Zheng Guo's map had been used in recent deductions.

Tiger also saw this map. He didn’t think too much about it. He was just a little excited. A new opportunity seemed to be coming to him.

In the last war, because he was in charge of military affairs on Dragon Island, it was Redman who went to the battlefield and became known as Lightning Redman.

This time, he felt that it was his turn, and he wanted to seize this opportunity to show off himself and let everyone understand who is the real number one general of the Tang Dynasty.

Tang Mo still held his chin and stared at the map and said: "I will try my best to persuade the surrounding countries to acquiesce in our expansion of the army... You and General Tiger just need to try to talk about it from the perspective of commanders. , how many troops are needed to attack Zheng Guo..."

"Zheng Guo..." After hearing that Tang Mo had officially determined the attack target, both Tiger and Loew fell into deep thought.

"Purely from a military point of view, it is not a good choice to use force to conquer Zheng." When he saw the west coast of the Endless Sea, which covered almost half of the map, Loew was the first to say: " This country is really far away from us and is beyond our reach..."
