When the phone call came from the military advisor, Li Tianlan was about to watch a classic Hollywood action movie.
The movie has come to the end. The overwhelming mechanical debris is flying in the fire. The warriors holding shields are fighting fiercely with the muscular giants. In the distance is a ruined city. The survivors are running away. Various high-tech...
The weapons bloomed with destructive fire unbridled in the air, and the endless legions moved forward with determination amid the raging artillery fire.
Pictures after pictures were reflected in his dull pupils. He sat quietly, like a puppet, with countless thoughts flashing in his mind, about the East Island, about South America, and about Europe.
.
The imminent structural reorganization within the East Palace, the establishment of various departments, the blueprint of the new group, the game with Li Huacheng, the various investments of Shengshi Fund, Tiannan's future, his future...
Everything seemed to come together and explode.
Everything is something that needs to be done, and everything must be done as soon as possible.
He didn't even notice what the movie was about. It was a blockbuster movie that was destined to not have much connotation. The scenes were gorgeous and passionate, and the special effects were fully activated. Li Tianlan's various thoughts spread out without limit as the special effects filled the screen.
He seemed to be getting quieter and quieter, sitting motionless on the sofa. Time was silent, and he was also silent. Gradually, it became quiet as if he didn't exist at all.
The phone rang.
Li Tianlan's body moved slightly.
His whole body seemed to come alive all of a sudden. He let out a soft breath, turned off the TV in front of him, answered the phone, and said yes.
"Your Majesty, Youzhou is a little lively."
The military advisor's voice was still calm and straight to the point.
He used the word lively very expressively.
In fact, Youzhou now is more than just lively?
Li Kuangtu suddenly attacked the East Palace, and such an unexpected move directly shocked the entire Central Continent. The interior of Youzhou is now in a state of commotion and excitement.
Parliament has not yet held a meeting to formally announce or issue any orders.
But various heavyweights have begun to meet frequently.
Zou Mulin and Bai Zhanfang are meeting secretly.
According to accurate information, an hour ago, Deputy Cabinet Minister Wu Zhengmin also arrived at Baijia Manor.
Bai Qingchao went to the military building overnight.
It is said that the four spirits of Central Continent, except Xuanwu Li Chuansheng who is currently stationed in Tiannan, Qinglong, White Tiger, and New Suzaku have all received orders and each returned to Youzhou with their own terracotta warriors and horses teams.
Ji Wenwen, Wan Qingyun, and Ye Dongsheng also started to have secret contact an hour ago.
Guo Wentian seems to be ready to leave for Southwest City.
The chairman of the Northern City Council came to Youzhou overnight and entered Zhou Yunhai's home.
Not only the parliament, but also some powerful figures in Central Continent have received the news and began to discuss possible changes in the future.
It is said that Hua Zhengyang's phone number is almost full of calls.
Countless people with extraordinary energy have expressed their opinions, either hoping that Li Huacheng can be more cautious, or hoping that Xuanyuan City can take a step back. As the current CEO of the East Palace, the military advisor also received calls from different people.
.
Some want to strengthen cooperation, while others want to shelve previous cooperation plans.
It's a mess, and the demons are dancing wildly.
This turmoil has begun to spread to the entire Central Continent with Youzhou as the center. Within twenty-four hours at most, a roaring hurricane will sweep across the entire Central Continent.
"Is it exciting?"
Li Tianlan asked with a smile and a relaxed tone while holding the phone.
The military advisor was silent for about half a minute. Obviously, he did not expect that Li Tianlan's attitude would be like this at this time. Then he also laughed: "I have been through such a battle once, and I am used to it. Your Majesty, the timing is a bit sensitive now. You
knew."
Of course Li Tianlan understands what the so-called timing sensitivity is about.
The issue of Kuangtu Li has now become the focus between the academic sect and the East Palace. Both sides refuse to give in. Li Huacheng's arrival at the East Palace makes everyone a little uneasy, but before the situation changes, this uneasiness is just that.
They are just uneasy, they will wait and see, look for opportunities, and express their attitude at the right time, and the so-called right time is undoubtedly when the battle between the academic school and the Eastern Palace has a clear winner.
But there is a lot of movement in Youzhou right now. This is no longer as simple as waiting and watching. The academic group and the East Palace have caused chaos. With all this happening now, other major groups and various wealthy families are clearly ready to move in. There are signs of entering the market.
.
Why?
There may be many reasons.
But when they come in, there are probably only a few people who really want to help the academy or give a hand to the East Palace.
The main reason is because of the election!
The eve of every election in Central Continent is the most lively time. The situation seems calm, but only those in the game can truly see the turmoil.
When it comes to groups, each group has its own demands and wants to complete its own layout. When it comes to individuals, everyone also has their own goals. The relationship between them, the competition inside and outside the group, and the competition in various fields.
Cooperation is a complete mess.
Everyone is fighting, fighting, for a certain position, for a certain benefit, from top to bottom, fighting constantly, spreading to various fields, various groups, a chaotic war.
Talking about nature is necessary.
But just like Li Huacheng and Li Tianlan now, before the negotiation, both parties wanted to show their power. Only with strong power can what they say can be valued, respected, and even accepted by others.
With less than a year left before the general election, major groups will undoubtedly have to show their strength so that they can negotiate
Only then will you have more chips and be able to ask for more things.
"Is it going to start now?"
Li Tianlan smiled and looked out the window at the dark night that seemed to be gradually fading away.
Xuanyuan City in winter was still as warm as spring, but his body still remembered the coldness that filled the world in Youzhou. He squinted his eyes, shook his head and said, "We haven't celebrated the New Year yet, and it seems a bit early now."
"Because many things need to be redistributed, our emergence has impacted the structure of the six major groups, and many people have long been unable to hold back."
The military advisor's voice was a bit understated.
"Then according to your opinion, is this time a good thing or a bad thing for our East Palace?"
"so so."
The military advisor laughed: "Everyone who enters the game has good intentions, but in the end, no one knows what kind of accidents will happen. We can only do what we should do, no matter good or bad, it is
It needs to work.”
Li Tianlan's voice became more understated, even a little careless: "Well, what can you do?"
"..."
The military advisor didn't speak for a while, and he didn't know in his heart whether he gave Li Tianlan a thumbs up or a middle finger. Whether it was an understatement or a casual tone, this sentence simply captured the essence of the boss. With a single word,
All the next tasks will obviously be handed over to him, but as the CEO of East Palace, this seems to be indeed his task.
This sentence is undoubtedly a statement by Li Tianlan, which means that in the following chaos, the military advisor can use all the resources currently owned by the East Palace to obtain greater benefits for the East Palace.
As the supreme leader of the Eastern Palace, if Li Tianlan was personally involved in everything, then the existence of people like military advisors would undoubtedly be meaningless.
Li Tianlan is self-aware, and he has indeed reached this position now, but in terms of skills, layout, tactics, experience, and experience, he is not enough to perfectly control all the details within a group. At least, he is good in this aspect
Not as good as a military advisor.
He just knows what he wants and where the East Palace will be next. Li Tianlan is quite capable of doing this kind of thing that involves the main strategic direction but not the specific operational process.
The new group's goals after the election are very clear.
While retaining Jiangsu and Zhejiang, they captured the four provinces of Nanyue, Xiyue, Dongshan and Jiangnan. While improving the promotion system within the group, they made every effort to attack the cabinet and occupy a relatively strong position.
Based on the five provinces and Tiannan, the influence radiated out and the power of the cabinet support each other. In terms of the overall strategy of the entire Central Continent, resources are tilted towards the Eastern Palace to a certain extent, and for the new group, the wealthy group, and the northern group.
Integrated escort.
This is the strategic direction of the East Palace in Central Continent in the next ten years that Li Tianlan personally formulated.
The subsequent execution, as well as the deployment of a large number of resources and the operation of contacts, are the affairs of the CEO and the military advisor. Li Tianlan gave the direction of leading the East Palace. He did not care about the process, only the final result.
"I'm on my way to the Bai family manor."
On the phone, the military advisor smiled softly. He was the CEO of the Eastern Palace, but after all, he had nothing to do with the Central Continent Council. On the surface, he was just a businessman. At this time, he naturally wanted to unite all the people he could.
Only by uniting our forces can we intervene in this chaotic war.
Dongcheng Wudi is still in the East Palace.
In the current Youzhou, Zou Mulin and Bai Zhanfang represent the wealthy groups.
Wu Zhengmin represents the power of the new group.
The military advisor represents the Eastern Palace. Only when he, the CEO, is present can the power of the new group and the wealthy group operate smoothly and prepare for the next chaotic war.
"The first thing we have to deal with is the academy."
The military advisor's voice was very quiet and calm. In the midst of the chaos, his slow and steady voice had a power of reassurance and trust: "Your Majesty, what are your plans for Kuangtu Li's problem?"
Li Tianlan was silent for a moment.
"Should we fight to the end? Or can we compromise? I can operate in Youzhou, but you must first be mentally prepared. Your decision will mean different results."
"The current situation is that the conflict between us and the academic faction has caused the current chaos. This is not a good thing, but it is not a bad thing either. At least it can be explained to a certain extent that the initiative is currently in our hands.
In our hands, not in the hands of the academics. If we fight hard, the first thing we have to face is the all-out attack of the academics. Li Huacheng cannot be ignored in this position. Once we fall into a disadvantage, other groups do not want the new group to
The emerging forces will undoubtedly attack in groups. It will be difficult for us to survive, but once we survive, our gains will far exceed our expectations. The risks of resisting to the end are high, but the benefits are also great."
"If we compromise, we can make full use of the initiative in our hands. We have the final say on when to compromise and when to hand over Li Kuangtu to the parliament. We can even use this to argue with the academics.
By exchanging some things, we will be more prepared before the election. At present, compromise is a relatively rational choice, with low risk and very safe."
The voice of the military advisor was clear and unambiguous.
"So you prefer me to let him go?"
Li Tianlan asked rhetorically.
The military advisor seemed to think about the emotion in Li Tianlan's tone, and finally said cautiously: "Everything is entirely up to your Majesty."
"I make the decision...ha..."
Li Tianlan narrowed his eyes slightly and said nothing for a while.
He was indeed hesitant about how to deal with Li Kuangtu.
Li Kuangtu's hostility towards him was extremely obvious, but perhaps it was due to a certain fixed understanding of Li Kuangtu that he had had since childhood but was later broken, or because Dongcheng was like this, or because
It was because of the sword that Li Kuangtu lent him in Leiji City, or some other things that he couldn't tell himself. So even though Li Tianlan now has the strength to surpass Li Kuangtu, it still has no impact on him.
The murderous intention is not serious.
Jiang Shangyu may have also noticed this.
So he forcibly took Gu Xingyun away, leaving Li Kuangtu behind.
At that time, Li Tianlan could have killed Kuangtu Li countless times in an instant, but in the end he chose to take him back to the East Palace.
From the perspective of the East Palace, if Li Kuangtu is left here, and after the situation stabilizes, Li Tianlan can get up and go to Tiandu City in Tiannan, using Li Kuangtu as a bargaining chip to accept the entire Tiandu Purgatory. There is an ancient saying.
It is called coercing the emperor to control the princes. It is not accurate to put it here. Li Kuangtu is not the emperor, but the meaning is not very different. As long as he controls Li Kuangtu, it will be a matter of time before he takes over Tiandu Purgatory.
People who are inclined to him no longer need to hesitate and will be willing to join the East Palace. Even those who are die-hardly loyal to Li Kuangtu, such as Li Ming, such as Breaking Dawn, and such people as Fenghuang, will also fall in love because Li Kuangtu is under the control of the East Palace.
Join in and become the sword in the hands of the East Palace.
Situ Cangyue's occasional daze and trance will no longer appear.
The relationship between Sigh City and Shushan will gradually ease.
There is no need for Li Xi to recall the past.
Leaving Kuangtu Li behind, he has an explanation for Dongcheng, even his grandfather, and the Li family.
As long as you control Kuangtu Li, the East Palace can get a lot of things.
And if we look at it from the perspective of the Eastern Palace, if Kuangtu Li is handed over, the compensation given to him by the council will also be extremely generous.
Dongcheng Invincible brought Li Huacheng’s chips.
In the recent communication with Li Huacheng, he also explained it calmly.
Northern Xinjiang is undoubtedly a piece of fat.
But Li Huacheng did not mean to exchange his position in the cabinet.
In principle, he still supports Bai Qingqian's appointment to the cabinet. He can also support Wu Zhengmin to serve as director and deputy prime minister. He will also support Zou Yuanshan to go to southern Guangdong.
Li Huacheng's original intention was to bring Ji Ankang, Wu Zhengmin's first secretary, who was now working very happily with Zou Yuanshan and Dongcheng Qiuchi in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, into the Central Continent Parliament, and let him take charge of Northern Xinjiang.
Ji Ankang's qualifications are undoubtedly insufficient. Among the dozens of provincial speakers in Central Continent, his qualifications are the least, but his ability is unquestionable. Li Tianlan will feel relieved if Northern Xinjiang is handed over to Ji Ankang's hands.
, Zhongzhou will also feel relieved.
The strategic significance of Northern Xinjiang is far more than just one councilor. The largest province in Central Continent can be said to be vast in land and rich in resources, or it can be said to be vast and sparsely populated. There are really too many things that can be done. No matter what can be said,
What I can’t say yet is that it can be done on that land.
If the New Group wins Northern Xinjiang, after the election, they will undoubtedly become one of the top groups in Central Continent. And it is not just the New Group. Li Huacheng's reluctance to the Border Guards also means that Li Tianlan only needs to hand over Li Kuang
As a disciple, wealthy groups can also gain great benefits.
This is the condition Li Huacheng threw out.
And what is certain is that these are not all the conditions, just the most tempting ones. As long as Li Tianlan is willing to discuss other details, they will definitely be discussed.
Therefore, in the so-called overall situation of the East Palace, whether he releases the person or not, it is beneficial to the East Palace. The difference is that if he does not release the person, he will get Tiandu Purgatory, but he has to resist the pressure from the Central Continent Council.
pressure.
If he is released, he will get a large number of bargaining chips led by Beijiang, but what he will have to face in the future is the cooperation between Li Kuangtu, Gu Xingyun and Jiang Shangyu.
Li Tianlan is not afraid of making enemies.
He was not even afraid that Li Kuangtu would enter that supreme realm in the spiritual realm first.
He just doesn't want to be an enemy of Kuangtu Li, or the Tiandu Purgatory that Kuangtu Li represents.
The imprint of the Li family on Tiandu Purgatory is so obvious.
It could be said that he was indecisive, he could be said to be kind to a woman, or he could be said to be indecisive.
Li Tianlan really didn't want to take action against them.
That was tantamount to cutting off the beliefs he had grown up with, distorting his life, and making the future even more meaningless.
And Li Huacheng, as well as the Central Continent Council, are undoubtedly forcing him and the Li family represented by Li Kuangtu to go into confrontation.
Li Tianlan held the phone for a long time and then said: "Let's see, things have to be done first."
"There's no need to be too hasty."
The military adviser smiled on the other end of the phone: "Both sides are still in the stage of showing their strength. The moment before the real showdown is the time for His Majesty to consider it."
Li Tianlan hummed.
"I probably know what Li Huacheng wants to do."
The military advisor continued: "Our intelligence department has received the news. Li Huacheng should want to re-establish the order of the Central Continent's special operations system. He has already talked with Gu Xingyun and Jiang Shangyu, and Li Kuangtu is also indispensable in his plan.
a part of."
"In Li Huacheng's expectation, the Central Continent Special Warfare System will establish several new legions in the future as the core pillars of the Central Continent Special Warfare System."
"Kunlun Legion, its commander Gu Xingyun, the main force is also the elite of Kunlun City today."
"The Tiandu Legion, the commander of the legion, Li Kuangtu, is mainly composed of the current elites of Tiandu Purgatory."
"The third one, the source of the information is a bit vague, it should be called the Shadow Legion, the legion is raining on the Yangtze River, and the specific composition of its personnel is unknown."
"Besides that, there are the Snow Dance Legion and the Nightmare Legion of the East Palace, led by your Majesty."
"The parliament seems to also give the special operations system more say. In short, Li Huacheng is very generous, and it can be seen that he is very sincere."
The quiet and low voice of the military advisor continued to echo.
Li Tianlan held the phone and didn't speak for a long time.
