On the afternoon of December 11, the fourth year of Tianxuan, after Qu Mao, Xuande and Meng De had lunch in the canteen of a military factory in Jidao, Qu Mao took Xuande back to the Outlying Island Power Research Institute.

At the Reservoir Village blacksmith shop next to the Island Power Research Institute, Qu Mao showed Xuande a sample of Kong Ming's innovative lathe technology. During the time Qu Mao left, Kong Ming built a brand new test lathe.

It wasn't until he saw the samples made by Kong Ming that Xuande finally understood why Qu Mao was so arbitrary and insistent on placing Liandao Lathe Factory under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry.

So Xuande solemnly apologized to Qu Mao, saying that he should not selfishly want to keep Liandao Lathe Factory in the logistics department.

Now that he had arrived at the outlying island, Xuande didn't want to leave immediately, so he stayed with Qu Mao and Kong Ming in the blacksmith shop. From the perspective of the actual production needs of the military factory, he put forward many expectations for the functions of the lathe and helped Qu Mao and Kong Ming.

Very big.

However, just when Qu Mao, Kong Ming and Xuande followed a group of craftsmen from the blacksmith shop and the carpenter shop and were concentrating on the innovative lathe technology, Xinping suddenly rushed in and saw Xuande, Kong Ming and Qu Mao together. Xinping wanted to speak.

Stop again.

Qu Mao saw Xinping coming in and saw Xinping's expression, so he said disdainfully: "Xinping, is there anything you can't say?

Here are the resident heroes or nominal heroes of the Lord's Lodge. What can't you say? What information cannot be disclosed? All information in Yi Hou's territory will usually be dealt with by the resident heroes of the Lord's Lodge and the nominal heroes.

After making strategic suggestions, I will report my decision.

Even if you don't choose to disclose it to them, after telling me, I will seek everyone's opinions."

Xinping smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, the information is very bad, and my subordinates are worried that it will affect morale.

My subordinates have just received information from the Yancheng Intelligence Distribution Center that the Monell Marquis on the main continent has brazenly launched an invasion of the Lianhe Marquis, the independent territory of our main continent.

At 1 a.m. on December 11, the fourth year of Tianxuan, the Moner Kingdom assembled a large army on the border and launched an undeclared war against our independent territory, the Lianhe Kingdom.

As of now, my subordinates have received intelligence: the invasion force of the Monell Kingdom has reached Heye City, a border city of the Lianhe Kingdom. Based on the judgment of the intelligence agency personnel on Heye City, Heye City should not be able to defend it."

Qu Mao was stunned for a moment, and Xuande was half-bent, looking at Xinping blankly.

Kong Ming stopped what he was doing for a moment, thought for a moment, picked up the goose feather fan that was thrown aside, patted the dust in his hands, and glanced at Qu Mao.

Qu Mao said: "The three of us have been without rest for almost two days and two nights, and Kong Ming and the craftsmen have worked even harder.

Let’s do this, the craftsmen will go back to rest first and wait until Lord Kong Ming informs you of the time to resume work.”

All the craftsmen quickly bowed and said goodbye, and soon only four people, Qu Mao, Kong Ming, Xuande and Xinping, were left in the blacksmith shop.

Kong Ming was the first to react, shaking his goose feather fan very quickly, and asked: "Xinping, what is the specific situation? How many troops did the Monell Kingdom dispatch? How did our heroes garrisoned in the Lianhe Kingdom respond?"

Xinping shook his head and said: "Sir Kong Ming, sir, after the intelligence personnel knew this information, they immediately passed the information back to the Yancheng Intelligence Distribution Center. The Yancheng Intelligence Distribution Center immediately passed the information to the Intelligence Department Headquarters and Wucheng Intelligence Distribution Center.

Therefore, a lot of information is not clear."

Qu Mao frowned and said: "Kong Ming, if this news is known by the army, navy and garrison, it will definitely affect the established main continent combat plan..."

Kong Ming said: "Sir, the intelligence must know the navy, army and garrison. Sylvia Ocean and Zhao Pan are both nominal heroes of the Lord's Lodge. However, they can be urged not to influence the Lord's Lodge before a decision is reached.

own battle plan."

Xuande said: "My lord, Lord Kong Ming, I think this point does not need to be emphasized. Sylvia and Zhao Pan will definitely focus on the ongoing battles on the main continent.

Even if they want to rush to the aid of the Lianhe Kingdom, given the distance between their troops and the Lianhe Kingdom, it is impossible to take any action in a short time."

Qu Mao thought for a while and said to Xinping: "Xinping, contact the personnel at the headquarters of the Intelligence Department and pursue an order from the front line of the main continent so that Sylvia Ocean, Zhao Pan and Zhang Da can still use Jili Houguo and Napoleon Hou

The country's military operations are mainly focused on it. Regarding the invasion of the Lianhe Kingdom, let them continue to wait for orders."

"Yes!" Xinping immediately walked aside, took out the magic communication crystal and started to contact the personnel on duty at the Intelligence Department headquarters.

Kong Ming and Xuande both looked at Qu Mao, and Kong Ming said: "Sir, unlike the princes of the aboriginal forces on the main continent, our independent territory of Lianhe on the main continent only has guard troops and royal guards, no

Standing troops.

so……"

Xuande also said bitterly: "The surrounding independent territories also have no standing troops. If we talk about military strength, there may only be a slightly larger number of royal guards in the Liusu Principality."

After contacting the headquarters of the Intelligence Department, Xinping came back and said: "Sir, things happened suddenly. The Intelligence Department dispatched intelligence personnel from the Monell Kingdom and the Lianhe Marquis State. They just learned that at least 1 person from the Monell Kingdom was dispatched.

The number of 10,000 fifth-level heavy cavalry and 40,000 fourth-level light cavalry, as well as third-level warriors and second-level warriors is not clear.”

Qu Mao frowned and thought, and then said after a long time: "Xinping, according to the intelligence you initially provided, Moner should not have so many fifth-order heavy cavalry and fourth-order light cavalry."

Kong Ming shook his goose feather fan and said: "Is there any shadow of other forces behind this? We attacked the Kingdom of Jili and the Kingdom of Napoleon for nearly 10 days. It is normal for the Kingdom of Moner to get the news."

Xuande said: "Indeed, after Mr. Kong Ming said this, my subordinates also felt that the sudden invasion of our Lianhe Kingdom by the Monair Kingdom seemed very unusual. If there was instigation from the Mughal Empire behind it, it would be easy to understand.

Already."

Qu Mao said: "The Mughal Empire is just agitating, but it is a trivial matter. We are afraid that the Mughal Empire will directly send troops behind the scenes and invade our Lianhe Kingdom disguised as troops from the Moner Kingdom.

Guessing here won't help. Xinping, summon Su Yan, Liu Qianhui, and Su Qiaoer to go back to the lord's cabin. Kong Ming, Xuande, and the three of us will also go back to the lord's cabin.

Try to hold a meeting tonight to discuss how to deal with this matter, maybe only Su Yan will have a harder time."

"Yes, sir, my subordinates will be summoned immediately." Xinping said, cupping his hands.

Kong Ming and Xuande also began to collect materials being tested in the blacksmith shop, preparing to return to the lord's cabin with Qu Mao.
