"Father, these are my views on the current situation. Time is running out, and our Gao Chamber of Commerce must act quickly, otherwise the opportunity will be fleeting, and it is always better to provide help in the snow than to add icing on the cake."
If it weren't for the fact that the person giving advice in front of him was his most precious son, Gao Jin might have suspected that the other person was a traitor sent by the enemy, encouraging him to make wrong decisions. After all, Gao Ye's advice was in line with "overall view" and "conservatism"
”, words like “trade-off” are far different.
Simply summed up in one sentence, it is to support the new empress and use the power of the Gao Chamber of Commerce to help Qinglan City, which is about to face a brutal war.
Such a bold and decisive stance not only surprised Gao Jin, who had been strategizing in the mall for many years, but also Gao Ye himself felt a little impulsive after he finished speaking. The reason for him to make such a judgment was extremely simple, and could even be attributed to
Class is done at will.
One is that Li Mu once saved his life, and now that Qinglan City is in trouble, he cannot stand idly by no matter what. The other is because after that setback, he returned to the Xuantian Sword Sect and decided to work hard, at least next time he would fight with Li Mu.
When Li Mu meets, he won't fall too far behind.
With this belief, when Gao Ye encountered the bottleneck of the Transformation Infant Realm, he resolutely chose to enter the sect's forbidden area, the Sword Tomb, to practice. This was the place where the Xuantian Sword Sect's disciples buried their immortal swords after they died.
Among them are various weapons seized as trophies from Xuantian Sword Sect’s predecessors over the past thousand years.
Countless powerful immortal weapons were buried in this forbidden place with the emotions of their former owners. Thousands of years of savings even gave birth to sword spirits with autonomous consciousness. Sword spirits from the predecessors of the Sword Sect naturally take care of the younger disciples.
, some would even give them a chance, but those weapon spirits from the enemy's weapons would continue to slaughter Xuantian Sword Sect disciples who entered the forbidden area with the resentment of their masters in their previous lives.
Opportunities and dangers coexist, and Gao Zai was obviously lucky after entering the forbidden area. Not only did he get the recognition of the owner of a Xuan-level fairy sword, but he also received a piece of guidance left on the fairy sword from a senior in the Tribulation Realm. This senior was extremely powerful.
Even a hint of the mystery of time has been glimpsed. It is difficult to imagine that the Xuantian Sword Sect, which is now in decline, has produced such a genius in thousands of years.
After the elder's soul exhausted its remaining power, Gao also received a prophecy about his future, saying that as long as he followed the footsteps of a noble person he already knew, he would be able to cultivate a great path, and about this noble person
Due to the lack of spiritual power of the senior sword sect, the message was just a phantom.
But this blurry shadow really made Gao Ye feel panicked, because it was the back of Li Mu with a little monkey squatting on his shoulders.
"So, father, this may be an opportunity for me and the entire Gao family to take off. We must rush in front of all forces to express our position to the new empress, the Yunlan Sect, and most importantly, the Li family of Qinglan City.
As long as we win this war with the Penglai Immortal Kingdom, from now on, there will no longer be three major chambers of commerce in Cangyun, and the entire Immortal World will become our stage."
This kind of dialogue between the Gao family and his son is taking place in many places in the Cangyun Empire. This major reshuffle of imperial power has undoubtedly caused headaches for countless people like Gao Jin. Yun Lier's strength and Huangfu Yi's ruthlessness
, these two are the masters who can't get rid of the sand in their eyes. Since they have broken their faces, they must not give up until they completely defeat their opponents. Therefore, if you want to be a walleye, you have to bear the consequences of being attacked by both parties at the same time.
The racking of their brains by many forces in the empire did not affect Li Mu's next step plan. After Yun Li'er announced Huangfu Qing's succession, the two southeastern military regions quickly took action. The Liu family and the Ji family were in their respective areas.
They showed extremely strong military strength and execution ability. Those who were originally restricted by the royal order signed by Huangfu Yi did not dare to send troops to reinforce Qinglan City. They immediately received an order from the empress from Huangfu Qing, asking her subordinate troops to
Unconditionally obey the commands of the two southeastern military regions, fully cooperate with the defense, and reinforce the front line.
Of course, there are also city lords who are close to the original royal family in the two major military regions in the southeast. Thorn City, which is only a hundred miles away from Qinglan City, is one of them. As the city lord of Thorn City, Yuan Shuo is currently very worried.
"City Lord, the people from the Eastern Military Region have blocked the city gate. They have the Empress' Order in their hands. Brothers can't hold them back any longer. If we don't let them into the city, I'm afraid it won't end today."
The counselor wearing a high crown looked at Yuan Shuo anxiously. The civil servant who usually only talked about words had never seen such a battle. He just glanced secretly outside the city gate and was frightened by the momentum of the Liu family's army.
, his calves are still trembling.
"If you can't hold it back, you have to hold it off. Is there any way we can survive if we let them in? Have you forgotten how the prince took care of us in the first place? If those things are found out, we will all die. If it doesn't work, it's better to go ahead and make arrangements.
Cars and horses, call on my aunts and wives with fifteen rooms, so that we can keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood."
Outside the north city gate, soldiers wearing emblems of Thorn City were holding the spears in their hands tightly. They didn't know that their city lord was already preparing to flee with all his family members. Before receiving the order,
, they could only block the Liu family soldiers in front of them, who overwhelmed them both in terms of equipment and momentum.
"Captain, I've been waiting for a stick of incense."
The captain sitting on the tall horse was obviously impatient. If the military region had not uniformly stipulated that any city must be given enough time to burn incense, and if he had not accepted the order of cooperating with the empress before he could forcefully enter the city, he would have taken the lead and wiped out all the cats and dogs in front of him.
Already.
"The time has come. The Lord of Thorns City refuses to accept the imperial royal order and will be punished as a rebellion. The Eastern Military Region, the Third Army and the 27th Squadron under General Liu Shang will obey the order and enter the city!"
Following the order, the Liu family's army quickly took over the city with a devastating force. They also discovered Yuan Shuo who was running away with a group of concubines in a secret passage, and imprisoned him behind the city lord's palace. The captain of this team
Only then did he take out a jade token from his waist, and the Liu family's fighting spirit was input into it, and the originally colorless token turned blue.
"Mother, the signal from Thorn City has turned blue. The force recruitment has been completed. Tianluo City and Hua Ruan City have also lit up green. The entire city's troops are willing to cooperate with our mobilization. There is also a signal from Maiyue City.
It's red, it means it's encountering resistance and needs support."
In the combat command room of the Lord's Mansion of Qinglan City, Liu Ruoying was looking at the huge map on the wall in front of her. This specially made map recorded one hundred and eight cities in the Cangyun Empire, and now the southeast
Most of the cities in the Ministry have turned green, which means that these cities are willing to support the new empress and cooperate with the Southeast Military Region to face the invasion of Penglai Fairy Kingdom, while some blue means that although they have not received support from the cities, the army has
Under control of the situation, these cities will become logistical supply stations in the war.
