Section 2008 Cooperation with the Wizards Guild

"The members of the Magician's Guild can be said to be a group of vampires. I want to cooperate with them, but they may not cooperate with me. This time they took the initiative to come to me and ask to cooperate with me. There will definitely be problems of one kind or another. Although you are an intermediary , but now you can be regarded as following me, don't let your heart go astray, and lean towards me. M" Li Cong looked down at Wu Zuoxi and said with a smile, it was indeed as you said, Although both sides are friends without seats, the relationship between Wu Zuoxi and Li Cong is closer after all. At the beginning, what Wu Zuoxi wanted was to draw a line for them. Now it seems that it is not that simple. Come to act as this special envoy with full powers. If I don’t pull the line from the mediator, this cooperation may really fail. Li Cong has a good relationship with the magician’s union of the Northern Empire, but he has almost no relationship with the magician’s union of the other two empires. Come and go, this is absolutely impossible.

"About this matter, just put your heart in your stomach. You just need to put a million hearts in it. I will never do this kind of thing. Besides, if I offend you in this matter. I don’t have to live on both sides on the entire continent. I’m more nervous than you about this matter. Even if you don’t cooperate with the Mage Guild, you can still cooperate with other people, but I messed up this matter. , What do you think in your heart? I don’t know. Those magicians look at me in a different way. These magicians, what they think in their hearts is the same as what they express on their faces. They don’t have so many fancy things. If I want to cooperate with you, I will cooperate with you. If I don’t want to cooperate with you, I may say it immediately. There are very few people in the Magician’s Guild who can use their brains. Most of them are different from you. I think the Northern Empire You will be the next president of the Magician's Guild, and it is estimated that the Northern Empire's Magician's Guild is much stronger than the other three empires."

Li Cong didn't know whether he was happy or unhappy when he heard that he was obviously belittling himself. This old guy was really a little bit speechless, and he couldn't figure it out. How could he pass the other two countries when he became the president of the Northern Empire Magicians Guild? What about the Wizards Guild? My brain is turning a little faster than normal people, and I will definitely not admit that I am old and cunning. Don't really talk about the magician's union. Li Cong really didn't ask about it. Since he joined the magician's union, he didn't seem to have any contact with the magician's union. He now has the strength of a ninth-level magician, but Most of my magic skills are still at the sixth level, and I don't have the magic skills at the seventh and eighth levels at all, because those things need to be done. I think that I don't have the time to do the task, and it is impossible for others to send this thing for nothing, even if you are a tenth-level magician.

"Although I am a magician, my connection with the Magician's Guild is not very close? Although my master is the chairman of the Magician's Guild, I have only met him twice. What do you say? The magician's guild that I want to cooperate with should be from the Western Empire or the Southern Empire. The magician's guild in the Northern Empire has not cooperated with me so far, and they have not made this request. I think my relationship with them is still Not bad, I give them a lot of magic supplies every year. If they want to cooperate with me, I guess they will be more likely to talk to me directly. There is no need to go through you, the middleman. I don’t know if I’m right? "Li Cong said. It is true that Li Cong was not understood by the magician's guild of the empire, but the relationship is still very good. They have already recognized you as the next president of the magician's guild.

There were still a few competitors, but when Li Cong showed his energy, those competitors disappeared.

"Your thinking is very correct. It is true that the person who put forward this opinion is the Magician's Guild of the Western Empire. Compared with the Magician's Guild of the other two empires after seven o'clock, the Western Empire belongs to a disadvantaged group. They Although it is also ranked second, the royal family may not listen to what they say. It has been a long time since the royal family of the Western Empire has been strong. The royal family and the magician guild have always been very friendly, but the magician union I will compare, the magician union of the Northern Empire can have its own army, why can't the magician union of the Western Empire have its own army, although they have a large number of magic servants, but these are too big compared with the army , so the Western Empire's Magician's Guild wants to cooperate with you to build their own army, which is what you want most now." As long as a Magician's Guild has its own army, it is a very reasonable thing.

In the past, the Magician's Guild of the Western Empire did not ask for this matter. They feel that it is the same whether there is an army or not, but what has happened in the past few hundred years makes them feel that it is very difficult to rely on their magicians alone to solve these matters, because most of the magicians Time is used for meditation and practice, but there is not so much time to deal with these trivial matters. He did not see that the magician unions of the Southern Empire and the Northern Empire do not have so many things at all, because they have their own army in their hands. They have their own right to speak, and once something happens, people don’t need to post it to solve the problem themselves, so they proposed to the royal family a plan to establish a magician’s guild for themselves, but they didn’t expect it to be directly rejected by the royal family, and the royal family told Their reason is that if you need the army, the government can send the army to assist you, and you don’t need to build the army yourself, which is actually incompatible with spending money and trouble.

The royal family of the Western Empire is simply afraid that the Western Empire Magician Union will have an army to fight against them. Now in the country, they are already very troubled by the army represented by Cao's firm like Li Cong. If I have another one that is not controlled by the government The army, they don't know what to do anymore. Before the Northern Empire and the Southern Empire, they turned a blind eye to the army of the Magicians Union, so there is no need for them to take this risk to cooperate with you now. , When others are enjoying happiness, they never think of you. When others are suffering, if you give him a hand at this time, it will be the greatest help to him. Looking at Li Cong's eyes, Wu Zuoxi knows that he made the right proposal today. He would definitely cherish the cooperation of the Empire's Magician Guild, but Li Cong was still a little disappointed in which country's Magician Guild he wanted to cooperate with the most, not the Western Empire. If the Southern Empire's Magician Guild was with him If you cooperate. It can help you open up the situation where you live.

At present, the situation of the Southern Empire among the three major empires can be opened, but now the Magician Guild of the game empire has come to cooperate with him, and he has no reason to throw them out. Li Cong said, "Since it is an empire If the magician union has the sincerity to cooperate, let's discuss it with him. I think you should have a general framework for cooperation. I don't know what they mean? What do we need to cooperate with?" Although the cooperation with magicians is not It takes so many brains to work with ordinary people, but Li Cong still hopes that he can know the details of the cooperation soon. If he cooperates with the Magicians Guild of the Western Empire, his strength will also have a strong leap in the Western Empire. With the help of Prince Zheng, his strength can be said to have developed very quickly in the Western Empire, but if the magician's guild is added as a catalyst, the development speed should be doubled.

"Of course, they have given me the conditions for cooperation. They want to form an army, and there are quite a few of them. According to their investigation, the Northern Empire Magician Guild probably has an army of 100 million people. They also want to master this number of troops. But the court directly rejected their idea, but the court gave them another idea, that is, the court allowed them to form an elite army, and all of them could be first-class fighters, second-class fighters or even They are higher fighters, and your subordinates are low-level fighters, at most they want to buy people from you." Li Cong really didn't expect that this buyer was a business of selling people, and he hated buying Li Cong for people. It's a lease contract. They didn't buy Li Cong, they just said they hired Li Cong's people.

Because of the help of the Ouyang family, Li Cong now has too many raw materials that can be trained to become fifth-level fighters. It is a bad thing to treat people as materials, but you get used to it when you yell. At that time, it was some ordinary people who were stronger, and their whole life had been stipulated. There is no chance of change at all. After they followed Li Cong, their lives have undergone earth-shaking changes. The whole family has become better because of themselves. Many people used to rent other people's land. Now all of them bought land and properties in their hometowns and became big landlords. The fifth-level fighters now earn thousands of taels of silver every year. From the outside, it is simply the price of cabbage, but Li Cong called them up, and even if they only give them a few thousand taels of silver every day, it is very good. The Western Empire Magicians Union will rent 100 million people at once, which makes you a little dumbfounded.

However, the price they offer is also very attractive. Now the market hires a fifth-level fighter, but it costs about silver every year. The Qi Jiguang Magician Association sets this price for silver. The amount produced is definitely a very beautiful book. Li Cong really couldn't imagine that the Western Empire Magician's Guild had so much money.

You must know that this is not a small amount, but this is hundreds of thousands of silver. Li Cong really didn't expect that the Magician's Union would be able to take out this money. So poor, the Mage Guild has a lot of money, these magicians, from a first-level magician to an eighth-level magician, at least everyone has to pay hundreds of billions of silver to enter, and take out this little money for the magician guild , It’s just drizzle, and they have so much land in various places, they are simply the most powerful group of big landlords in the three empires, you have enough money in your hand, but compared with other people’s money in the Magician’s Guild It’s far from enough. If someone can fully take out this sum of money, can you take it out?” Of course it’s impossible.

Indeed, just as Wu Zuoxi said, Li Cong was intimidated by the financial ability of the Magicians Union. He thought he was already a very rich person in the world, and he was one of the first few people, but with Compared with the Magician Guild, it is still too far behind. The income from the Magician Guild to the royal family can be said to be comparable, but the Magician Guild basically does not have that much expenditure. With a large financial deficit, the Magician's Guild is like a wild beast. It only eats but does not pull, and the accumulated money will be a very, huge amount, which is a matter of course for them. But if an outsider knew about it, he would be very shocked. Li Cong shrugged his shoulders.

Now with the help of the Ouyang family, Li Cong's training camp has been able to train a large number of first-class fighters. They are not actually first-class fighters, but their combat effectiveness can reach that of first-class fighters or second-class fighters. Then Li Cong had some medicines for them to cultivate, and after about half a year, what would they become weapons for? For Li Cong, a fifth-level fighter is still a very simple matter, that is, two to three years, and these people use genetic medicine so that no matter how the magicians union brainwash them, they will still be Li Cong's in the end. People are like some computers on the earth. You bought this computer in your home, but the people who made the computer and the system in the first place left backdoors on the computer. Whenever they want this computer to listen to their orders, they will listen to their orders. You are just a second-level master, right? The second-level master of these fifth-level fighters is the Magicians Guild, and the first-level master is naturally Cao's House!

This is a top-level secret that even Wu Zuoxi can't let him know. If it gets out, those who spend money to hire soldiers from the Cao's House of Firm will definitely feel bad. The news or things depend on Cao's house, which is something Li Cong never thought about, so this secret must be kept, just like the Eastern Empire wants to keep the secret of Thunder Gate. There is no news that no one has come to know for so many years. Li Cong also admires their secret-keeping action very much. It would be great if his own people could be like them. What kind of secret can't be kept.

"By the way, there is one more thing. I have to tell you that the relationship between the members of the Magician Union of the Western Empire and Prince Zheng is not very good. Your relationship with Prince Zheng is very good. And you have a good relationship with Prince Zheng. The cooperation is also very close. If they use this matter to adjust, you'd better be mentally prepared and don't be caught off guard by them. If this is the case, I can't help you. You also know the situation in the Western Empire. It is an authoritative existence, and even the current emperor is afraid of this old uncle. Anyone can do what Prince Zheng wants to do. He will not give others room to think about what he does. Naturally, the Magician Guild will not be afraid of Prince Zheng. There have been several large-scale conflicts between the two sides. A tenth-level fighter may be very powerful in the eyes of ordinary people, and he is like the sky. For a The same is true for the government, but for the Magicians Union, they look down on you no matter whether you are a tenth-level fighter or a fifth-level fighter."

Wu Zuoxi told Li Cong that he also felt a bit of a headache about this matter. Many high-level people in the empire, including the current emperor, wanted to reconcile the Magician Guild and Prince Zheng's family, but they obviously didn't know why. Without reconciliation, the conflict between the two sides is getting bigger and bigger, and no one is going to try to persuade this matter until now, because they know that they don't have such face at all. For the time being, no one will do thankless things, and Prince Zheng once said that anyone who wants to be this peacemaker will be someone who will not be welcome in Prince Zheng's mansion in the future. To do such a thing, as for the magicians union, although it is not so strong, it also gives people a feeling of rejection. If you want to talk about things, there is no problem. You can use it as a pawn for Prince Zheng. Forget about lobbyists, we don’t need things like you, people like Prince Zheng, and friends like that.

"I really don't know about this matter. Do you know what caused the two of them to become like this? I guess it won't be a short time, otherwise I wouldn't be ignorant of any news." Li Cong Looking at Wu Zuoxi and saying that I got up early and actually mentioned this matter, I guess this person already knows the ins and outs of the matter in his heart. Although this may be the top secret for ordinary people, it is very easy for Wu Zuoxi to know After all, this guy regards me as the prime minister of the empire, and he has the right to read some secret materials of the Western Empire. Although he has not been in power for a long time, it is very easy to read those secret materials , Wu Zuoxi sighed and obviously thought that this matter is also a tricky one, but both parties have been of great help to Cao's House, so there is no way to abandon either party, so this matter has to be done by oneself, and he has to listen to them .

Wu Zuoxi said with a sigh. "Actually, the two of them didn't have any disputes before? It's just that Prince Zheng grew up too fast. People who were in the same age class as Prince Zheng did not have the same growth rate as Prince Zheng. Magicians have always been superior. The prince was so strong back then, he offended several magicians from the Magicians Union. Prince Zheng himself was only a fifth-level fighter back then, and he had the title of prince. Although the magician was arrogant, he also I can only bear that tone, but later on, these few magicians were also very successful. Now they are all ninth-level magicians, and they play very important positions in the magicians union. Everyone's strength They are all very powerful. There is no way to resolve anything that happened back then, so now they are pointing at each other. If you don’t love me, I don’t know you. If you don’t talk to me, I won’t talk to you.” Wu Zuoxi said lightly Finish the matter.

However, Li Cong still feels that this is a problem left over from history and the most difficult thing to solve. They fell out because of these things back then, and now it is impossible to get rid of this grudge in their hearts just because of a sentence or two. If the two parties want to solve this problem, I think they still need to solve it by themselves. We don’t want to think about it. As long as she doesn’t formally propose that she is not allowed to cooperate with the other party, we will not do this matter, and It's not easy to arrange the first wine, especially when both parties are powerful people. If we arrange it well for them, we will do a great job, but if they don't listen to us, we may offend both parties at the same time. There is no way to proceed. Without the help of Prince Zheng and the support of the Magic Guild, we may have a difficult time in the Western Empire. Relying on our own strength, it will be very fast to develop, at most it will be to maintain the status quo, you know that is definitely not what I want.

In the end, Li Cong made the final decision on this matter, that is, the two will not help each other. Whatever you both like to quarrel is that your business has nothing to do with me. As long as it does not affect my cooperation, then I will not get involved. If both of you want me to serve this contract wine, I will try it. What you mean is that Wu Zuoxi nodded and stood in the middle of the wall as a wall-saddle. Before this matter, Wu Zuoxi didn't want to be here. Because this may offend both parties. Although I am the safest in this way, I can't make true friends, but there is no way now. The two parties are very strong, and I can't afford to offend either party. Yes, it is also very difficult to work with them, okay, let's not talk about these trivial things, let's continue to talk about our cooperation with the Magician's Union.

Wu Zuoxi went on to say that there are still many cooperations with the Magician's Union, and the hiring of Li Cong's fifth-level fighters is only one of them. If a capable person can only give Li Cong such a business to make him so much money, then he can be regarded as an ordinary counselor, but this guy is definitely not an ordinary aide. Another cooperation plan, another cooperation plan of the Magician's Union, is to cooperate with Li Cong, and the two sides will take control of some provinces of the Western Empire. They also feel that they have no right to speak politically, which is absolutely impossible. Well, it is really difficult to do it in the central government, but it is different in the local area. The combination of two or two forces will definitely make this happen.

"The Western Empire has not been ruled by the Empire in the North. It is still possible to take some provinces, but it is not so easy to do so in the Western Empire. Our political offensive has just passed for a while, so far Didn’t get any results? The people I didn’t arrange to join are currently at the level of the city lord. If we want to control a few counties and cities, it’s okay to control a province directly. I think it’s difficult It's very big, this is the magician union of the Western Empire, isn't it too loud? They are a bit high-minded in doing things, and these magicians are really unreasonable. When Li Cong spoke, he didn't realize that he was actually a magician himself. When doing things, sometimes he has a high-sightedness and a low-handedness, but he himself is lucky, and he just succeeds every time. Regarding his words, Wu Zuoxi is noncommittal. You have to be bold when you do things yourself. What others do is high-sighted and low-handed. You kid comment This is a double standard too!

"The conflict between the Western Empire Magician Guild and the government is very serious. They also want to have their own territory. At present, they have not yet owned their own territory. The area controlled by the Western Empire Magician Guild is too small. These magicians Magicians do not understand political management, so it is very normal to cooperate with us. However, they also have some advantages. For example, magicians always know people who are high-ranking officials. Relationships based on money are very unreliable, and if they come forward, I think this will achieve twice the result with half the effort." Wu Zuoxi said that since it is a cooperation between the two parties, there must be some sense of discussion about this, and it is from the Magicians Union Li Cong is just popular, besides these, there are some trivial things, such as those who ask for money ask for their own money, and the people of the mage union talk about their own people to do things. This is a very good way of cooperation.

"Cooperation should be no problem. I agree with this matter very much, but you must make it clear to the members of the Western Empire Magician's Union. First of all, this matter must not be rushed. It has nothing to do with business. Being a businessman As long as you are strong, you can open it quickly, but it is impossible to do politics. In the officialdom, these magicians are played like Xiaobai. They don’t know how they died? Our people also I don’t have much contact with this aspect, now I can only cross the river by feeling the stones and move forward bit by bit, as long as we are not drowned, we will definitely succeed.” Li Cong is still a little worried about the Magicians Union In the eyes of these magicians, there is nothing they can't do. They were born and they want to succeed in everything immediately. This is also their biggest problem.

"I will tell them about this matter. What do you think about the northern battlefield? Although you have used this weight to threaten the three empires. But I see, it is not like this stalemate in the back battlefield. The time should not be long. On the side of the Eastern Empire, General Linghu has begun to mobilize a large number of iron generals from the country. These iron armored troops have also caused us huge losses. I have read the battle reports on the front line. Every day we Their losses are more than one million at any time, and their losses are more than ten million. This is an absolute, very large war of attrition. The three empires are starting to be a little powerless at this time, and there are also many people in them who do not support your current actions. You have to think about what we should do if the three empires really put all their eggs in one basket and cancel this operation? Do we have the ability to continue to support the war?"

Wu Zuoxi received a report from the northern border, the report said that the war has become fierce to the point that hundreds of thousands of grenades are consumed every day? As for the bow and arrow, it is even more powerful. Since Li Cong uses his own fingers for the chain crossbow, as long as he picks his hand, none of the ten crossbow arrows will be shot out. Ten crossbow arrows can only kill one person, that is to say, the Western Empire. It is a person who may have to pay the price of ten crossbow bolts on his own side. He thinks that the price is not very high, and the materials are also very easy to find. This supply seems to be no problem, but this kind of consumption is also very huge. He transports more than one billion crossbow bolts to the front line every day, which is also a very rare opportunity for the local people. Some of them have already started to get rich from this, and they never thought that the war would be so fierce. With so many bows and arrows, now even the work in the farmland has to be put down.

"Of course I want this war to continue, but they will definitely not let me continue to fight this war. I also understand the situation in the Eastern Empire. They just want to put all their eggs in one basket and dispatch the army to kill me at once. Overwhelming is what they think, but I can't let them do what they want. Let's break through my line of defense first. I'm going to go to the northern line of defense in person soon. General Linghu's offensive is no joke. We don't have mop generals His ability, of course, the gap between the two in terms of courage is not the slightest bit, then you want tens of thousands of people to rush to fill a trench to death, our general does not have such an idea, in his eyes, human life It's still very valuable, he doesn't care about dozens of heads now, but he will care about tens of millions of heads, even if I tell him to order them to die like this, I can't do it." Li Cong said, Linghu This is how the general's prestige was earned, relying on the man-made head to retreat his prestige to its peak.

"I just heard about the courage of General Linghu before, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful now that tens of millions of people rushed to fill the trenches with their own bodies. Even I can't do it. Both of them are very clear about what happened on the front line. A big thing happened recently, that is. General Linghu of the Eastern Empire sent tens of millions of troops to rush Going up, in front of the two-kilometer-long and wide-meter-long trench, they used their bodies to make a movement, that is, jumped down, used their bodies to overthrow this very wide trench, and then called the cavalry to pass through their bodies in pain. After the entire war ended, less than 10,000 people survived tens of millions of people, and all the rest died. It is estimated that General Linghu of the Eastern Empire could do such a thing. Use whatever means to achieve your goals.

Li Cong himself felt that he could not do such a thing. The soldiers on his side were frightened by the crazy move of the Eastern Empire. As a result, the north of the position was occupied that day, and they retreated nearly ten kilometers. . All the watchtowers were occupied, but everything inside was destroyed and cleaned up, even if they occupied these watchtowers, it would be of no use? After all, the important thing for you is not to attack, but to defend. He only needs to retreat step by step. According to the current situation, he can advance 20 kilometers without losing nearly 10,000 people. If he wants to advance to the edge of the frozen forest, it is estimated that they You have to send billions of troops over here, and the fortifications behind will be even more powerful. He didn't expect that it would not be so easy to get things done so easily. It's not that if you want to die, you can move on. As far as his current situation is concerned, even if you kill 200 million people, Li Cong will definitely not let you go any further.

"The officials sent by the three great empires have already set up camp on the front line. What they observed is the same as what I told them. The three great empires have also begun to understand the fierceness of the front-line war. I want so much for them. Money is not as difficult as it used to be. If you ask for money, you will immediately give it to the person you want, and you will feel scared if you give it to them immediately. As for what you said, they want to retreat. I think they have this idea. But I guess they will retreat , they will also make a lot of determination, because in the end, they will lose the most? My Cao's business is gone. How long does it take for my Cao's business to be lifted? Even if the Cao's is gone, ten years later I will also come up with another firm. For the three major empires, they will not. Their empires have existed for hundreds of thousands of years. If you want their empires to disappear, you should ask their heads whether they agree Well, it is estimated that they will all try their best to prevent the Eastern Empire from uniting with Raiden Gate.

He can see the affairs of the three empires very clearly, but he himself is a little bit in the situation where the war has come to this. He couldn't guess the real intention of the three empires. He originally thought of another small-scale local war. He didn't intend to expand the war, but he didn't expect the war to expand to the present level. There are millions of people on the front line every day. People lose their lives. If the fight continues here, it will definitely become a large-scale war of attrition? This is what Li Cong thought of, but now Li Cong feels that he can't control the scale of this war of attrition. Once he is out of control, it's time for him to clean up the mess. The entire Cao's House was compensated. After all, the main enemy of the Eastern Empire was not himself but the other three empires, so at this time he also ordered the southern fleet to step up trouble in the Eastern Empire.

"Your fleets are really good at doing things. I never took a fancy to the navy before. Of course, this is not my problem. Among the three empires, I think you are really few. I didn't expect it. With these navies, you can push back the combat capability of the Eastern Empire so much. People who have lived through these things may not suffer for too long. I remember a navy officer of the Eastern Empire said in front of me before, The fleets of their empires are invincible even if the fleets of the other three empires are assembled, they are not their opponents. Now I see that you can beat the fleet of the Eastern Empire with not many people and ships. This can be regarded as a sigh of relief for us. Wu Zuoxi smiled and said that he felt a little uncomfortable when he thought of the look of that officer back then. Now it’s all right. You guys are at the end of the game. His subordinates were defeated and still failed very badly. The tragic kind.

"Actually, the fleet is all relying on their own equipment. It's good. The Eastern Empire Navy is really well-deserved. When my team fought with them, it also suffered a certain amount of damage." Regarding Li Cong's words, Wu Zuoxi He was simply noncommittal, he didn't know what to say about Li Cong, wouldn't he lose money if he fought? It is absolutely impossible for you to be alone on your side without dying, and there is a piece of land on the other side. He doesn't know what kind of weapons you know the fleet uses? In his opinion, the weapons used by the navies on both sides should not be much different. To achieve this is to kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred. You have lost two ships here, and hundreds of ships have been lost there. You have to talk for a while, I really don't know what to say about you, and I don't want to explain more about Li Cong's matter. If I explain more, Wu Zuoxi may feel that I have something to hide from him, so it's better not to talk about it.

For Li Cong, who joined the Southern Fleet and the Eastern Empire, it is really troublesome. At present, there is still no way to find them. When you drive back, when the sailors are all down, they will come back again, and the speed of these fleets is really too fast. Yes, it only takes half an hour to blow up a bustling big port into a ruined area, and their attack weapons are also very powerful, I don’t know what they are using, anyway, the Eastern Empire is dispatched I have already dispatched everything I can, but Li Cong also lost some, mainly because the Eastern Empire ambushed warships outside the port. Of course, this loss is not very serious, otherwise Li Cong would definitely It will make your own fleet overwhelming. Of course, the harvest during this period of time is also very good. All the ships of the Eastern Empire have been escorted to the New Continent. The navy of the Eastern Empire also wants to attack this place, but they Those who don't have that ability.
