Chapter 417: Counterattack Time
"What?" Jiang Jingwu showed an angry look: "I absolutely disagree with you. Wu Qianjun has never made a mistake since he became the legion commander. Even in the case of Yu Lingxiao, Wu Qianjun's actions were nothing. Yu Lingxiao, how can we in Daxia obtain the most advanced warships, fighter planes, and high-tech weapons in the world?"
Baili Yunxiao rose up in the army and was valued by Wu Qianjun and Zhou Baoguo. It can be said that he is a member of the Jiang family. If the Ji family is allowed to suppress his own people, who will take the Jiang family seriously in the future? Moreover, Baili Yunxiao is most likely dead now. In Jiang Jingwu's view, his merits are enough to offset his faults.
"Jing Wu, please don't get excited. I'm just telling you my opinion, not really doing it. If you don't agree, we can talk about it later. However, Zhou Xianmin has some problems and has to change. You know, many people below are reacting, saying that the Lingxiao Group has occupied the Dongzhou Islands. The wealth that should belong to the people of Daxia was sold to the Lingxiao Group and the Baili family at a low price by Zhou Xianmin. , Therefore, Longting Island and its affiliated islands must be regained, and Zhou Xianmin must also be suspended for inspection. Do you have any opinions?" Ji Yingtian looked at the crowd and asked.
No one objected.
Jiang Jingwu had already understood that Ji Yingtian was trying to retreat and was using Wu Qianjun as a cover. In fact, he wanted to take advantage of Baili Yunxiao's incident to get rid of Zhou Xianmin. Although Zhou Xianmin was in politics, he was born in a military family, so he was half People from Jiang Jiajun.
However, the Jiang family has a tacit understanding that they do not care about politics. Therefore, if Ji Yingtian wants to remove Zhou Xianmin, he cannot object.
Ji Yingtian looked at Zhengfa again: "Zhengfa, you don't object, do you?"
Zhengfa thought for a moment and said: "Yingtian, originally, we planned to let Zhou Xianmin take over as governor after the old governor of Dongzhou retired. At the end of the year, the old governor retired. If Zhou Xianmin was removed, who would be the governor? Governor of Dongzhou?”
"I recommend someone!" The person who said this was Tian Gongwang, the second generation leader of the Tian family, and the family with the closest relationship with the Ji family among the top ten aristocratic families.
"Oh? I wonder who Gongwang plans to recommend?" Ji Yingtian looked at Tian Gongwang with interest.
"Everyone should be familiar with the person I'm talking about, that's Ji Wushang!" Tian Gongwang said.
"Ji Wushang?" Everyone looked understanding.
As a supporter of the Ji family, the Tian family will naturally not recommend anyone else.
In the eight major states, any governor can be ranked alongside the senior officials of the central government. Although Ji Wushang is now also a senior official in the central government of Yanzhou, he is far less important than the position of governor.
Tian Gongwang continued: "In terms of rank alone, Ji Wushang is a level-level official, and there is no promotion beyond the level. Ji Wushang has been in politics for many years in the central government and has accumulated a lot of experience in governing a state. Therefore, I think Ji Wushang is the most suitable candidate!"
"Then I wonder what you plan to do with Zhou Xianmin?" Jiang Jingwu's face darkened.
"Zhou Xianmin can continue to serve as the deputy governor without suspending his duties. However, he will be ranked under Ji Wushang. When the old governor of Dongzhou retires at the end of the year and Ji Wushang becomes the governor, Zhou Xianmin will still belong to the first deputy governor!" Tian Gongwang said.
Ji Yingtian nodded secretly. This method was indeed good. Firstly, he could make his son the governor of a state, and secondly, he wouldn't have to offend the Jiang family too much.
He said: "Jing Wu, what do you think?"
Jiang Jingwu had nothing to say at this time. Although he did not let Zhou Xianmin become the governor, it was a good result to be able to keep his current position and not be removed. At least, he could be justified in Zhou Baoguo's position.
Because the relationship between Jiang Jingwu and Zhou Baoguo is very good.
"Since no one objects, let's let this matter be settled and let Ji Wushang go to Dongzhou to assume the position of first deputy governor. At that time, Ji Wushang will be fully responsible for the Lingxiao Group's affairs!" Ji Yingtian made the decision.
And this is the end of this high-level meeting of Daxia Kingdom.
The night has come!
The sea of fire near Mount Fuji in Japan has long since disappeared, and some soldiers have appeared in the valley one after another. They hold instruments in their hands and seem to be searching for something.
The Four Symbols Divine Furnace was blasted into the rocks and buried, so that its existence could not be seen from the outside world.
However, when they used the heat detector and came to the top of the buried Sixiang Divine Furnace, the detector still sensed the situation below.
"They should be here!" The soldier holding the detector shouted loudly.
But as soon as he finished speaking, the rocks beneath the man's feet exploded, and a huge alchemy furnace with a diameter of ten meters rose into the sky.
Immediately afterwards, a ray of red light flew out from the pile of rocks in the distance, turned into a stream of light, pierced the man's throat, and passed through.
This is the Demon-Slaying Sword!
After the sea of fire disappeared, Baili Yunxiao sensed the specific location of the Demon-Slaying Sword. When it was bombed, the Demon-Slaying Sword automatically curled up into an iron ball and landed in a valley, hidden in the rocks. On the surface, it seemed , it is just an ordinary stone.
It wasn't until Baili Yunxiao used his spiritual consciousness to mobilize it just now that it unfolded the sword.
After killing one person in an instant, the Demon-Slaying Sword quickly shuttled through the entire valley, taking away one person's life almost every second. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of soldiers who came to explore this area were all killed.
Until then, Baili Yunxiao emerged from the Four-Elephant Divine Furnace, raised his hand and grabbed the Demon-Slaying Sword in his hand. Looking around, there was no one alive.
Looking up at the sky, it was full of stars, dark and windy, a night suitable for killing.
"Kill the Prime Minister first, then destroy those bases. The five major bases of the United States in Japan, not a single one will be left alive!"
Baili Yunxiao also summoned the women out of the Four-Elephant Divine Furnace one after another, and a red treasure gourd fell into his other hand.
"Master, we will go with you!" Xiaojiu said.
The other women were also full of expectations.
Baili Yunxiao pondered for a moment and said, "I will destroy the base of the United States, and you will kill the vampire prime minister and those senior officials assimilated by vampires!"
"Master, what if the United States uses nuclear bombs?" Zhou Ruotong asked.
"They definitely don't dare to use nuclear bombs in a metropolis, so you shouldn't be in danger. And I, with this treasure gourd and the Four-Elephant Divine Furnace, can survive even if I encounter a nuclear bomb!" Baili Yunxiao said.
"Which base does the master plan to destroy first?"
"Let's destroy the Seventh Fleet of the United States first. Now leave quickly!"
Baili Yunxiao lowered his waist, took a step, and ran at high speed in the direction of Tokyo Bay.
The other women followed closely behind him, and they also needed to go to Tokyo.
The two were only more than 100 kilometers apart. In the dark, everyone ran at high speed. Even if they didn't fly with swords, it took only 20 minutes to reach the suburbs of Tokyo. Here, the two sides separated.
However, more than 100 soldiers suddenly died on Mount Fuji, which shocked the governments of Japan and the United States.
According to their estimation, Baili Yunxiao and his men could not survive. Under such a powerful bombing and high-temperature burning, even those in the Heavenly Realm would have no way out.
They even evaluated the power of the Four-Elephant Divine Furnace and felt that although the Four-Elephant Divine Furnace could resist some shock waves, it was absolutely impossible to fully protect Baili Yunxiao from the burning of the fuel-air bomb.
Even if Baili Yunxiao hid in the Four-Elephant Divine Furnace at that critical moment, the Four-Elephant Divine Furnace could not withstand the long-term burning of 3,000 degrees high temperature. Even a super artifact would be melted into gold juice.
But now so many people died suddenly, who else could it be except Baili Yunxiao?
"Immediately retrieve all surveillance near Mount Fuji and find Baili Yunxiao!"
First, in the official residence, the Prime Minister of Yingzhou, Kita San, who had a mustache on his lips, screamed on the phone like crazy.
"Don't worry, Prime Minister, we will definitely find Baili Yunxiao!"
"Then hurry up and find him. In addition, impose martial law on the entire Tokyo and send heavy troops to the Prime Minister's residence!"
"Yes, Prime Minister!"
Following Kita San's order, the entire Yingzhou Self-Defense Force began to prepare for war.
However, the places that Baili Yunxiao and his companions passed through were all sparsely populated. Even if they occasionally encountered roads with surveillance, Baili Yunxiao's mental power would sense them in advance, making them temporarily ineffective. Therefore, until Baili Yunxiao and his companions arrived in the suburbs of Tokyo, the police and the Self-Defense Force did not find Baili Yunxiao and his companions.
Half an hour later, Xiaojiu, Qianhe Huanzi and other women had already arrived at the rooftop of a building near the first official residence.
"Sisters, Xiaojiu and I will go in first, and you will cooperate with our actions outside to paralyze the traffic in the vicinity first!" Huanzi said.
"Then I will lead the security guards of Lingxiao Group to occupy a favorable position first to prevent more troops from coming!" Ye Qingluan said.
"Let Ruotong and Nong Lele cooperate with you, Yihong and Nishang, you two, lead the martial artists in Japan to assist from the side!" Huanzi said.
"What about me?" Xu Xiangwu asked.
"Xiangwu, you are responsible for responding to emergencies. If there are martial arts myths coming, you must do your best to stop them to prevent our people from suffering too much loss!" Huanzi said.
Xu Xiangwu nodded.
"Then let's split up!" Xiaojiu smiled charmingly.
She and Huanzi flew directly from the roof to the official residence and landed lightly at the door of the official residence.
However, this place has been under martial law, and all vehicles are prohibited from passing. Many snipers are hiding in the dark. At the same time when the two women appeared, they locked their guns on the two women.
However, when they saw Xiaojiu's appearance, they were inexplicably sluggish.
When Baili Yunxiao first saw Xiaojiu, he was a little dazed, not to mention that these people were just ordinary mortals who did not reach the level of martial arts myth?
Even if they saw Xiaojiu through the sniper scope, they could not pull the trigger to kill her.
As for the soldiers who were closer to Xiaojiu, they drooled directly and fell into the illusion.
Although Xiaojiu did not transform into her original body, she could still use Huanxiang, and she could easily fascinate them even if they were a hundred meters away.
