Laughing at Chang'an

This day is destined to be a restless day.

At the main entrance of Chang'an No. [-] Hospital, Li Shen, who received the news, rushed over, and Li Mubai, who had arrived earlier, met him, and the two rushed to the emergency room together.

"How is Wang Ziyun's situation?" Li Shen asked Li Mubai.

"It's too bad. Half of her body was blown up when she was rescued. She is not yet a god. After this time, I'm afraid she won't be able to go on the battlefield again."

Li Shen's face was a little ugly, he frowned and said, "How could you be ambushed?"

"It's false information."

Li Mubai replied with the same ugly expression.Including the Datang General Chamber of Commerce, each of them has its own intelligence network, and it is unrealistic to integrate them together. Therefore, Li Shen gathered the intelligence leaders of each family together and formed a wartime staff department to integrate their respective intelligence networks. Summarize and analyze here and provide to the front line.

Because the sources of intelligence are relatively complicated, they must be carefully verified before being used. The purpose is to prevent wrong information from appearing and causing losses on the front line.But right now is not the time to pursue responsibility, Li Shen and Li Mubai who rushed to the emergency room stopped, their eyes coincidently fixed on Huang Sha who was sitting at the door.

The earth-yellow combat uniform was soaked in black and red blood, and it was full of tattered holes. Even the surface of the battle armor worn inside was covered with potholes, especially the jagged crack from the left shoulder to the lower abdomen, which was as long as three fingers. Wide, damaged to this extent, this set of armor is basically scrapped.

Huang Sha sat down on the chair in front of the emergency room with his head bowed, his expression was almost empty and indifferent. It seemed that even the flow of air around him had stopped, making it impossible to get close to him. Just looking at him made him feel chills in his heart.

"The source of the false information is Da Mo." Li Mubai's voice was so low that only Li Shen who was standing beside him could hear, "Da Mo's information has always been accurate, so other people have relaxed their vigilance. The person in charge of Da Mo's intelligence has been locked up for interrogation. No results have been found yet."

Due to the huge disparity in the number of each other, the loss rate of the First Legion led by Wang Ziyun is quite serious, but this woman has always been one-sided. Since she took over the burden, she didn't have a word of complaint. It took less than half a month. More than [-] imperial airships were annihilated within a short period of time, and almost one-third of the imperial air force was disabled.The price for achieving such brilliant results is that more than half of the Huofeng Flying Armor troops suffered casualties.This is also the result of Huang Sha's Second Army Corps supporting her after entering the battlefield, which greatly reduced the battle damage.

Li Shen looked at Huang Sha who was sitting in front of the emergency room. To be honest, he had never been optimistic about Huang Sha's feelings for Wang Ziyun.When Li Shen met Wang Ziyun for the first time, she was Feng He's girlfriend. At that time, although Feng He hadn't gotten the nickname of "prodigal son", he had already shown quite cynical feelings. Li Shen had never seen the woman beside him. Can stay for more than two months.But Wang Ziyun was an exception, she had been with Feng He for more than half a year, even Yang Huxing once joked that Feng He had finally met a woman who could subdue him.

It's a pity that the two still parted ways in the end. Li Shen clearly remembered that that day the three brothers got together to play cards, and one of them was missing. Yang Huxing asked Feng He to call Wang Ziyun to join the table. She broke up."

On that day, Yang Huxing rarely got angry at Feng He, and Feng He also rarely contradicted him, just bowed his head and listened silently, and only said at the end, I am not good enough for her.

From then on, Li Shen heard that Wang Ziyun had changed his sexual orientation, and spent a lot of money to buy the first night of Yu Linglong, the No. It's not normal to be stimulated.

So Huang Sha likes Wang Ziyun?Oh, it was a tragedy.An honest person who can't even talk about love, and a woman whose brain is out of order after being stimulated, what kind of coincidence does it take to get together?Li Shen has never been optimistic about them, just like he has never been optimistic about himself and Geng Yan, looking at Huang Sha's dead and silent figure now, he also feels a bit of sadness in his heart.

"In any case, check it out."

Li Shen said in a low voice, turned around and walked out of the passage, walked outside into the sunlight, and lit a cigarette a little irritably.Li Mubai also came out and stopped behind him, with a complicated look in his eyes, he said: "The Arms Alliance and Xijiangliu are both from Gengyan, and Lan Qi, as far as I know, is ranked among the top ten in the long arrangement." Five of the mercenary groups were infiltrated and controlled by him, and these three are the only ones, and I don't know more..."

Li Shen took the cigarette out of his mouth silently, turned his head and looked at Li Mubai.

Li Mubai asked him: "Why didn't you kill Geng Yan?"

This is a question that Li Shen cannot answer, so he can only be silent, and he can only be silent.Facing his silence, Li Mubai put his hands into his trouser pockets, raised his head and looked at the shadow of the sun in the sky.

"If you are ready to pay the price for this, then I won't say anything more... You can go crazy if you want. I only hope that when the time comes, you won't drag this Chang'an city to be buried with you."

The shadow of the sun in the sky exudes dazzling light, making it difficult for people to look directly at it, gorgeous and dangerous.

………………

At noon, the adjutant sent someone to deliver lunch to Geng Yan, and when the servant who delivered the meal left, Geng Yan got off the bed wrapped in a thin quilt, and walked barefoot to the table.Now there is no other clothes in this room for him to cover his body except this thin quilt. He sat down on the chair wrapped in the quilt and looked at the lonely soup bowl on the table. After a long while, he took it up slowly Tun Tun drink clean.

Naturally, there is no poison in this soup, but it is not a good thing either. It is a special soup for Cheng Huan to clean up the body's filth.In addition, it also has the function of nourishing yin and eliminating yang. If a man drinks it for a long time, his masculine characteristics will be weakened, and the body hair in dense places will automatically fall off.This decoction is also a common thing in the palace, and Geng Yan is no stranger to it, but he never thought that one day he would be reduced to drinking it.

After drinking the soup, Geng Yan was wrapped in a quilt and was about to return to the bed, but the door was knocked again, and it was not the attendant he thought came to collect the empty bowl, but the adjutant who came in.

Behind the adjutant were two people who were tall and slender, but their appearance was indistinguishable, and there was a romantic atmosphere in the corners of their eyes and brows.Geng Yan frowned, and sat sideways at the table, feeling an ominous premonition in his heart, and as expected, he heard the adjutant faltering and saying: "That... Master Shen ordered you to follow these two people, um, learn to serve A man's skill."

Geng Yan's right hand hanging by his side was silently clenched, but his face remained motionless, and he said indifferently, "How to learn?"

"Uh, I don't know about that either." The adjutant showed an embarrassed expression, and pointed to the two people behind him, "You have to ask them."

The two looked like twins, their faces were very similar, when the adjutant pointed them out, they subconsciously raised their heads to look at Geng Yan.The person sitting at the table looked a bit haggard, and his body was wrapped in a thin quilt, but the aura that belonged to the superior could not be concealed no matter what.To ask such a person to serve a man, I am afraid that it is not a lover's interest, but clearly a humiliation.

But this is not something they should consider, the two looked at each other, the older one took a step forward, and said to Geng Yan: "It's up to the two of us to demonstrate, you just watch and learn."

He unconsciously used honorifics, and his words were very careful. People like this, they must not be able to offend them, and they dare not use the one taught in the building, just ask the other party to look at it. ——As for how much they can learn, that's really not their concern.

Geng Yan was silent for a moment, nodded, and said: "Yes." Then he looked at the adjutant again, and ordered unceremoniously: "You step back."

The adjutant was eager to step back, and walked out without saying a word, leaving the two standing at the door, hesitating for a moment, and began to undress.Geng Yan sat by the table, put one hand on the table, raised his eyelids, and said calmly: "Put on your clothes, stay for enough time, and go out. You know what to say and what not to say."

Of course he doesn't know how to serve men, but he also doesn't want to contradict Li Shen.Geng Yan couldn't be more clear about Li Shen's temper of being soft rather than hard. The current anger is probably because he got rid of the doctor, so he deliberately wanted to embarrass him.Since Geng Yan has decided to stay, he has already thought about some things clearly. It is self-evident to ask Li Shen to let go of his hatred for him. To be honest, Geng Yan doesn't know that he can do it for the other party. To what extent, he just wanted to take a gamble.

This is the first time, and it may be the last time, that he has left behind his identity and ambitions, and pursued his love purely and somewhat capriciously.

This once-in-a-lifetime, one-of-a-kind adventure.

………………

Although Wang Ziyun's rescue was successful, he was still in a critical stage and he was unconscious.Huang Sha stood guard outside the observation room like a statue, and no one dared to persuade him to leave and take a rest.Huang Sha was the first to know the news of Wang Ziyun's ambush, and he was the first to rush to rescue him. He turned on his battle armor and flew all the way back to Chang'an, and was sent to the premier hospital in Chang'an City for emergency treatment. The general saved Wang Ziyun's life.

Because of Huang Sha's actions, it is difficult for everyone to blame Da Mo for his intelligence mistakes, but the truth of the matter must be found out. Da Mo's intelligence chief was locked up and tortured for nearly half a day, but depending on the situation, he really did not know. Also one of the deceived.But the conclusion cannot be made so quickly. Along the line of false information, six cadres in Damo have been invited to investigate.Finding out the truth is only one aspect. On the other hand, Wang Ziyun's First Army Corps suffered heavy losses in this ambush. Less than a hundred people survived, and it was on the verge of disbanding. It has to be said that this is a huge blow.

At this time, Li Shen canceled his wedding with the blood queen. The alliance between the two parties seemed to be in jeopardy, which inevitably made people panic.After he left the hospital, he was urged to rush to the temporary staff headquarters in the west of the city. Several mercenary regiment leaders including Huiguang Li Mubai and Xuetu Bushi rushed to the scene to make urgent adjustments to the next strategy.

According to the original plan, the first and second armies of Wang Ziyun and Huang Sha were used to contain the imperial air force and the rear line, and at the same time rely on the army of the blood empire to resist the attack from the north, and took the opportunity to integrate the third army of the Tang Dynasty as the main army. Army, and then took the initiative to fight head-on with the Imperial Light Knights surrounded outside Chang'an City.In the deduction of the staff department, with the same establishment of 10 people, the combat power of the Bright Knights including five paladins is not enough to fight against the main army of Chang'an City, not to mention that this is Chang'an's home field, and there are a large number of anti-aircraft war machines It can guarantee the safety of the air above the own army. Once the Imperial Knights of Light are repelled, the current situation will be greatly eased. Whether the empire gives up the siege of Chang'an or chooses to deploy troops to support it, it will create more benefits for Chang'an City. Chance.

But without Wang Ziyun's First Army Corps and the Imperial Air Force firmly controlling the air supremacy, this strategy will not be so effective.Even if the Knights of Light besieging Chang'an were repelled, once they leave the vicinity of Chang'an and lose the protection of the air, the Third Army will definitely not be able to carry out large-scale operations against the imperial army again, otherwise they will have to face the upper and lower pincers from the ground and the air, which is very unfavorable .When the empire let down its vigilance in Chang'an and bombarded Yan Poyuan, it was too correct a military judgment. Now it is no longer the era of relying on two legs to conquer the world. Air power is already an indispensable and important part of the war.

"So the question now is, where can we get a large number of airships?" Bu Shi bit his finger and looked at the general map of Fang Lu on the wall. Naturally, he was not talking about civilian airships, but warships equipped with armor and firepower systems. .As the birthplace of airships, Zhongtu was originally the largest airship manufacturing place in Fanglu. A single Flying Armor City almost provided more than 30.00% of Fanglu's total airships today.Unfortunately, Feijia City has now fallen into the hands of the empire, and almost all other large airship manufacturing sites have fallen. Although there is Donggong's manufacturing base in Chang'an City, Donggong's manufacturing base is fine and With fewer routes, productivity and reserves are far from being comparable to those of manufacturing bases.

In any case, it was definitely too late for the temporary construction. Bu Shi's eyes fell on the border between Donghuang and the South China Sea. Due to the geographical conditions, the South China Sea has always been dominated by naval battles.But in recent years, with the influx of Chang'an mercenaries, the use of airships has also been widely promoted, but after all, the development time is relatively short, and generally speaking, it is still very backward.Compared with this, Donghuang is different.

The Eastern Wilderness, where hundreds of countries stand, has been the area with the closest contacts with China since ancient times.Due to frequent wars, basically no matter how large or small a country is, they all pay great attention to armaments, and the reserve of warships is naturally a no-brainer.

Bu Shi thoughtfully said to Li Shen, "Can I buy from Donghuang, or borrow some empty boats?"

He was asking Li Shen this question, but the reason was not because of the identity of the other party's president, but the identity of the head of the Li family on Li Shen's head.The influence of the Huiguang Li family in the Eastern Wilderness is very important. If you pull out a branch at random, it is likely that they are all relatives of the emperor of a certain country.If Li Shen can mobilize the power of the Li family, it is not impossible to get a large number of warships from Donghuang, although the price is definitely not light.

"You can try it, but it still takes time." Li Shen nodded. It will take time to get airships from Donghuang. Even with the influence of the Li family, warships are important armaments, and no country will easily get them. Selling or lending, it will take a certain amount of time to reach an agreement.But the current situation in Middle-earth is tilting towards the empire every day. Although the attack on the northern line has been contained, the imperial army on the southern line is about to cross the Wei River and hit the border with Donghuang.

Bu Shidao: "It can be a two-pronged approach. On the one hand, launch an attack on the Bright Knights surrounding Chang'an, involving the offensive of the empire, and on the other hand, mobilize airships from Donghuang. In this way, it should be in time."

This proposal was approved by Li Mubai and others, so everyone made a general strategy for the next stage and took action individually.Among them, Li Shen, who took on the heavy responsibility of mobilizing the airship from Donghuang, returned to the Li Mansion on Gubai Road and called for his adjutant.

"You have taken over the affairs of the Li family, and you know the situation in Donghuang quite well, so I want to leave this matter to you." Li Shen said to the adjutant.

The adjutant smiled and said: "Since you trust me with such an important matter, I will naturally make it look good for you."

Li Shen is very assured of his ability. This matter is complicated to say, but it is not particularly difficult.Although the forces of the Li family suffered heavy losses in the civil strife, the remaining ones are more obedient and more aware of the overall situation after integration.After the matter was explained, the adjutant suddenly proposed his own idea to Li Shen.

"Master, have you ever thought about using Chang'an's commercial strength to counterattack the mainland of the Bright Empire?"

Li Shen blinked in surprise, looked at the adjutant who seemed confident, and said, "Go ahead."

"My idea is this. In fact, apart from fighting, war is about fighting for food, weapons, and equipment...the fight is for each family's wealth. It seems that Chang'an's family background is not as strong as that of the Guangming Empire, but there is one thing they absolutely can't do." Compared with us, that is money."

The adjutant rubbed his fingers at Li Shen, and said with a smile: "Don't underestimate the role of this money, as long as you can mobilize the merchants in Chang'an to launch a commercial attack on the Guangming Empire, raise prices in their territory, and buy their goods Important materials can force the people in their country to be unable to survive, with complaints and popular support, this battle cannot be fought.”

Li Shen felt that it made sense, but he really didn't know anything about business, and he didn't know how feasible this method was, so he nodded and said, "You go to the Li family's affairs first, and I'll find Mr. The president of the Chamber of Commerce discusses your idea, and if it is feasible, I will ask you to come back and explain it carefully, but it is not for me, but for other people, so you should also be prepared, and don't embarrass me when the time comes."

"The last general has orders!" The adjutant put on Li Shen in a comical gesture of clasping his fists, and then bounced away. Li Shen silently stared at the figure of the people bouncing around, always feeling a little flustered in his heart. ... Slot, can't this guy walk steadily?What are you jumping around for?

The spirit that had been tense in his mind for a whole day finally relaxed, Li Shen leaned on the chair in the study, raised his hand to cover his forehead, and let out a long breath.This series of events followed one after another, and it was only now that he was able to calm down and think about it, first of all, Li Xifeng's death, and the warning from the other party before his death... Why did Li Xifeng, who was sent out of Chang'an, come back, and why did he end up like that? With a look of dying, the adjutant reported back that Li Xifeng ran away by himself, was the adjutant lying?Or what happened after he ran away?

Li Shen counted the time silently, and found that after Li Xifeng ran away and Geng Yan woke up, the adjutant reported that the time of the other party's trip was less than a few days different. Of course it was Geng Yan who was betrayed by him and almost died.It wasn't because of his unfounded suspicion, but because he knew Geng Yan too well. With Geng Yan's temperament, Li Xifeng betrayed him, so it was impossible to just let it go.

There is also the false information that almost killed Wang Ziyun. Li Mubai said that several major mercenary regiments in Chang'an City were infiltrated by Geng Yan... Li Shen had never caught a glimpse of Geng Yan. He was the man he could only look up to. He knows better than anyone that as long as he is willing to let go, even if the other party has no cultivation base, he can still regain the lost power and status.

He thought about letting go, but it was Geng Yan who wanted to stay.

... He admitted that he didn't want to let go at all, even if Geng Yan stayed, they would only continue to torture each other. On this road with no future, they went further and further in an irreversible direction.

Li Shen's palms were down, covering his eyes. He was tired of thinking about Geng Yan, the face that could never be erased from his mind, and the way Geng Yan leaned forward to kiss him. Looking at the other party sitting on him with his bare chest, the golden hair hangs down from the ears, and gently sweeps down beside the breasts on the chest, thinking of Geng Yan's buttocks raised and his things in his mouth, that beautiful hair The sunken ridge of...

He smiled slightly, letting himself sink into this bottomless darkness.
