Realm of Power

"I have decided not to return to Daizhou for the time being. This letter contains a secret message unique to my Yelu family. As long as it is delivered, my father will naturally know that I am still alive."

Just one day had passed, Yelu Qiyeguang, who was about to return to Daizhou, suddenly found the fat man with a solemn expression. A pair of crescent-like eyes flashed with a dazzling look, and he solemnly placed a letter in his hand in front of the fat man. "It's not that I don't want to go back, it's just not the right time to go back to Daizhou now," he said.

"Why"

The fat man looked stunned. He raised his head from the document, glanced at the letter placed in front of him, and unconsciously grinned.

"I just feel that returning to Daizhou at this moment will not only fail to change the situation, but will actually cause greater trouble."

Yelu Qiyeguang's face turned red, showing a slightly embarrassed look. The beautiful phoenix eyes glanced at the fat man quietly, "Sure enough, I guessed it right. You are willing to let me go back because you have bad intentions!" Seeing the fat man's astonished face, Yelu Qiyeguang couldn't help but burst into laughter. It was really a hundred The beauty of the country and the beauty of the country

"Did this woman really see something? She shouldn't, this is definitely beyond her intelligence!" No matter how thick-skinned the fat man was, he couldn't help but blush at this moment.

"Okay, I will send this letter to Yelu Hongtai!"

The fat man looked at Yelu Qi's leaving figure with a wry smile on his lips. This woman was becoming more and more aware of the political trends. She was somewhat as calm as Yelu Hongtai, an old fox. It's no wonder that everyone in the Yelu Group recognized Yelu Qi. Ye Guang is most similar to Yelu Hongtai. It seems that in the two years since the Yelu family conquered the Zhongbia region, this defenseless prairie girl who was raped by him in Onnatso has begun to possess considerable political ability.

Yelu Qiyeguang really guessed it right. He had bad intentions in letting Yelu Qiyeguang go back, and even one move could turn the Yelu Group upside down. Now the Yelu Group is in chaos, and the four major departments have their own agendas. Yelu Hongtai was very anxious, although all this was Because there is no successor to the Yelu family, it does not mean that the return of Yelu Qiyeguang will stabilize the situation. On the contrary, because the issue of the successor of the Yelu family is confusing, once they know that Yelu Qiyeguang is still alive, they are afraid that they will not continue to join the Yelu family. , and it may be a cruel sword-to-sword encounter,

Yanzhou Beishan was defeated miserably, and more than 100,000 troops were reduced to nothing. Although Yelu Qiyeguang was not commanded, as the general person in charge of conquering Yanzhou, it was difficult to shirk responsibility. Even if he went back, he would be criticized by various departments. , this move is based on the hearts of the people, and it is Yelu Hongtai, the father, who will ultimately choose the Yelu Group or his own daughter!

This is real killing without blood! Of course the fat man would not say it out loud. When the empire decided to drive Yelu Hongtai south to Central Asia, it was to take advantage of another war in Central Asia to allow the empire's forces to penetrate into the hinterland of Central Asia and open up the empire's presence in Central Asia. The difficulty of regional expansion

Two years later, as expected, the Yelu family defeated the hostility of the Zhongbia court against the empire in one fell swoop, triggering confusion throughout Zhongbia, and finally established a firm foothold in the central region of Zhongbia, from which the empire gained The benefits and benefits have already far exceeded the amount that the fat man originally estimated.

Before the empire opened up Central and South-Bia, its total income was about 30 to 40 million per quarter. However, since the Yelu family opened the door to the hinterland of Central and South-Bia, the flames of war have spread, and countless Central and South-Bian wealth have accumulated like mountains and mountains. Falling into the hands of the prairie aristocracy, they have no idea about these For the aristocratic class of the prairie people who have a consumption concept, dead objects such as jewelry and property are far less useful than weapons and armor. And the empire happened to win consecutive battles in the Opalo region, and captured nearly 300,000 to 400,000 weapons and armor. These weapons Most of the armor went to Central Asia.

The mountains of wealth of the prairie aristocracy were earned by the empire's merchants. In addition, the large quantities of weapons from the Long Family in the southwest and the Song clan in the south resulted in the empire only acquiring supplies from the Central and South Asian regions in the past two years. The profit exceeds tens of millions, which is equal to the total income of the empire in the previous three quarters.

The Yelu Group is growing stronger and absorbing more and more troops. How can these grassland aristocrats who later joined the empire be willing to accept the empire's established absolute position in trade in Central and South-Bia?

Seeing that the wealth he had gained through hard work all the way ended up in the pockets of the imperial merchants, according to the character of the prairie people, he felt aggrieved just like a robber who was robbed by others. The opposing force came from within the Yelu Group. , finally made Yelu Hongtai begin to waver on the issue of empire,

And now, the intelligence returned from Daizhou shows that Yelu Hongtai's current situation is extremely bad.

Yanzhou was defeated miserably, his son Yelu Guda died in battle, and his daughter Yelu Qiyeguang disappeared. However, no one pitied the old man. Instead, there were many accusations. After all, a real dynasty had not yet been established, and the group still adopted the grassland approach. There is an alliance system in When there are benefits to be gained, people's hearts will naturally follow. But now, the Yelu family lost most of the authority they gained from victory all the way in the first battle in Yanzhou. The Yelu family has no successors, which makes the ambitions of all departments confused. Naturally, I hope the Yelu family will step down immediately.

Nowadays, the various tribes of the Yelu family are not like the panic-stricken dogs that fled south. Each tribe has its own troops and its own territory. The combined military strength of the four major tribes even exceeds that of the Yelu family, and the best areas among them are and resources are naturally occupied by the Yelu family Well, if the Yelu family was prosperous, no one would dare to make a decision. But now, the reputation of the Yelu family has been greatly damaged, and the two heirs have died and disappeared. It is impossible to continue to maintain the original territory of the Yelu family. Now Signs of a change in the situation are already clearly visible.

The Yelu family is now on the verge of life and death. It is completely impossible to establish a country. It is lucky to avoid being overthrown!

"I heard that Yelu Qiyeguang gave up his plan to go back. It seems that the teacher's plan will be delayed again."

After a while, Bonnie Berlant appeared at the door of the office in plain clothes. She walked in with a pair of red riding boots. Her long flowing hair was tied into a long ponytail, hanging down to her straight breasts. Ministry, this style similar to that of the Central Asian knight has recently attracted the attention of this slender female knight. The knight likes it, at least every time she can see the strong burning in her teacher's eyes, which makes the female knight very happy. Men are just like what Li Yuehua said. The more cold and arrogant a beautiful woman is, the more she can inspire the desire to conquer* *, and my teacher seems to have a special feeling for China and Bia.

"You told Yelu Qiyeguang, right? Do you know that doing so will destroy the entire layout? If Yelu Hongtai really kills in desperation, it will be of no benefit to the empire!" The fat man was angry and funny. He pulled the female knight to herself On his own thigh, regardless of the female knight's struggle, he slapped the female knight's plump flesh in a provocative posture. There is no doubt that this matter is definitely related to Bertrand Bonnie, otherwise Yelu Qiyeguang will follow How did the female knight know what she was talking about?

And such a coincidental appearance at this moment is undoubtedly to confess to him. "The student just thinks that since the teacher values ​​the Yelu family so much, why not just marry Yelu Qiyeguang?"

Bertrand Bonnie fell softly and fell on the fat man, gasping for air, and said unconvinced, "Anyway, Yelu Guda is dead, Yelu Qiyeguang is the only heir to the Yelu family, but as a woman, she always The combination of the empire and the Yelu family requires strong support, and is not more in line with the interests of the Yelu family! "

"When did you start caring so much about the Yelu family?"

A glimmer of light flashed through the fat man's eyes. It was nonsense to say that Bonnie Bonnie would care about the Yelu family. Yelu Guda's army of more than 100,000 invaded the wilderness. Bonnie gritted her teeth in hatred and would always give up. Tianlang City regarded it as the greatest shame, otherwise it would not have regained Tianlang City, and vented its anger on the three thousand Southwest Long Family Army.

"It's nothing, I just think that since the teacher wants me to be responsible for China and Libya, it would be good to have one more sister, right?"

Bertrand Bonnie drew a circle on the fat man's chest with her fingers, and said with a smile, her tone was obviously a little weak. Seeing that the fat man was still looking at her, she finally gave up, and sighed and said, "Okay, I admit it. It was indeed premeditated to win over Yelu Qiyeguang. I have already seen it. The teacher placed me in Zhongbia. And also entrusted me with important responsibilities, with a large army in hand, and watching the surrounding areas. It seems to be compensation for my apology, but in fact it is to let the military power be in hand, and no longer care about the status of the imperial princess, since the possibility of becoming a princess is getting slimmer. , why don’t you just stay in Zhongbiala and look at the people around you, it’s obvious that this is what the teacher envisioned.”

"Imagination?" The fat man's face darkened, and he felt embarrassed when someone pointed out his thoughts.

"Isn't it?" Bonnie looked at the flash of surprise on the fat man's face, and knew that she had guessed correctly. She let out a cheer, raised the corners of her graceful mouth, and said with a smile, "No matter how stupid the students are, they will never know how to do it." Even his eyes were blind. The teacher transferred Li Yuehua, who had a background from the Li family, and took him in. By allowing Princess Mingyue, who has a royal background in China and Bia, and now she is murdering the Yelu family, isn't it because she wants to form a new power structure of the empire that can influence China and Bia? Hasn't the teacher never thought about it, people from Zhongbia? The impact won't be a big problem, but what about the impact from the empire itself? Without a princess from the Eastern Continent, His Majesty’s idea may not be sustainable for a long time. From this point of view, Yelu Qiyeguang is obviously the most suitable candidate.”

"I'm afraid you didn't come up with this."

The fat man blinked his eyes, and seemed to be able to see a shadow in the female knight. The female knight never paid too much attention to the overall situation. This was also Bonnie's weakness. After all, she was from a knight family, so she lacked that Identity and vision, and there is only one person who can have such outstanding vision and is beside the female knight, Princess Mingyue from the Central Asian royal family,

"With the status of the heir to the prominent Yelu family, it is not inappropriate even to become the imperial princess. The most important thing is that the empire can use this name to control the entire Yelu Group, which is much better than always relying on others. ↑△小↓△ . .m]...Berant Bonnie was talking eloquently, her pretty face was full of pride, and her crisp voice echoed in the office,

But he didn't notice that Fatty had already heard the real behind-the-scenes mastermind from her words. The person who proposed this idea was probably the Princess Mingyue who hated the grassland people so much.

After facing the inability to resist the prairie people's rampage in Zhongbia, the princess of the Zhongbia royal family seemed to have decided to save the country. Since the empire did not want the Yelu family to go to war, it would not be bad to let the empire control the Yelu family. According to the empire's business-first nature, if the Yelu family can be controlled, it will not only be able to curb the Yelu family's southward expedition, but also at least greatly reduce the proportion of grassland nobles killing slaves in Central Asia. It may even be possible to control the Yelu family like the Western Continent. Slaves in China and Libya were given certain protection

In order to protect more Central Bian people from persecution, it can even accommodate the Yelu family who massacred the entire Central Bian royal family in the Battle of Linhang. Even the fat man couldn't help but admire this magnanimity. Flashing back to the battle in the wilderness that day, in order to cover the evacuation of the refugees, Princess Mingyue stayed alone and had the same courage as a man. Fatty couldn't help but sigh secretly. It's a pity. If Princess Mingyue were a man, Zhongbia would never be in this situation.

"It is still possible for the Yelu family to become part of the empire!" The fat man curled his lips slightly. If Yelu Guda did not die, the possibility was extremely slim, but since God allowed Yelu Guda to die, then he could be considered obedient. God made it happen,

"Okay, pass on my order. Send Yelu Qiyeguang back to Daizhou in three days!" The fat man said with a cold expression on his face.

"Teacher still wants to send Yelu Qiyeguang back? Now the northwest is already under the control of the Long family. If the other party knows that Yelu Qiyeguang is passing by Daizhou, it will be very dangerous." Bonnie stood up from the fat man's arms angrily. He said unfairly, was he really wrong after saying so much? "The main force of the Long family is still in Yanzhou and will not withdraw immediately. As for safety, of course the empire's 100,000-strong army went with Yelu Qiyeguang." The fat man laughed.

Horse hooves kicked up the flying snow on the ground. A light cavalry scout ignored the severe cold of more than ten degrees in the winter night and carried the wind and snow in the dark night. He galloped for more than 20 miles in one breath and rushed into the rock barrier in front of him. The area is not large, and the iron door was hurriedly lifted. Starting from the beginning, there is a moat outside, only a hundred meters long and wide. It is completely made of solid rock. It gives off a green-black color in the dark night. The small town below the fortress has long been covered with dense camps. In the distance, From a distance, it looks like a huge bat with its wings spread out.

This little stone castle. If it were placed on the inland plain, it would be just a lookout fort at most, but in the Daizhou area, this small stone fort built on the plain is of extraordinary significance. Because looking down from this stone fort, it is like a pair of huge eyes, overlooking the entire area. The defensive wall extending from this stone fort stretches for several miles, like a huge arm dividing this wilderness. For two. This is the core of the Yelu family’s Daizhou defense line, Longshi Castle.
