Chapter 1060 I Said What You Wanted to Hear
"Without money, limited resources will lead to uneven distribution. Between Bailie Priority and Second Son Priority, since Lu Zhensheng chose the latter from the beginning, he can only go to the dark side and grit his teeth. in the end."
He Lingchuan understood Lu Zhensheng's difficulties very well. If he tried again and again at this time, both sides might fail.
Understanding is understanding, calculation is calculation.
"As for the battle on Bailie's eastern front, isn't it supported by Mr. Lu San and Mr. Lu Liu? As long as he can hold on, Lu Zhensheng is not in a hurry." He continued, "Your clan leader can also see it. It is clear that Yaguo has no intention of annexing Bailie, but only wants to extort some money from him. If the opponent wants a small amount, he will give it to him. If the opponent wants to open his mouth, Bailie will have to resist. Just wait for Lu Qinglin to come back - he will come back eventually, right? "
These words are like an awl, piercing people's hearts.
What's even worse is that he is right and the other party has no way to refute it.
Lu Qingbang hesitated for a long time before saying:
"Brother He was not wrong. In fact, the clan leader sent an order to the front line, asking to avoid the expansion of the fighting and strive for peace talks between the two parties."
Avoid conflict escalation? He Lingchuan figured it out in a flash: "Let you fight, but don't fight too hard. Well, Chief Lu doesn't want to really annoy Yaguo."
If the Lu brothers and sisters are new born calves, they really beat up the border troops on the opposite side so hard that Yaguo loses face. If they send more elite troops to the border, the conflict may escalate into a real war, and the situation will inevitably worsen.
Bailie's overall strength is not as good as Yaguo's, and he doesn't want to get to that point.
As the head of Bailie, Lu Zhensheng certainly has his own considerations.
But from the side, Lu Zhensheng's order just confirmed He Lingchuan's words: he really wanted to use the "drag" tactic to delay time for Lu Qinglin's return.
"But the question is, will Lu Qinglin return as the king? And when will he come as a savior?" He Lingchuan sighed, "If you want to change the current deadlock, you must either break Lu Zhensheng's wishful thinking, he Only then will we agree to tilt resources to the east; or - take action yourself and seize the limited resources. "
Lu Qingbang's face changed color: "Brother He, you can't say this nonsense."
He Lingchuan smiled. This guy was quite smart. He understood the implication immediately.
"The law is not taught to the six ears. You and I discussed current affairs in Lingxu City without any scruples. Why can't we talk about it in these overseas islands?" He Lingchuan took out a small jar of wine and two cups from the storage ring, and poured the I gave him a full cup and said, "Try the newly brewed peach wine on the island."
Lu Qingbang took it and drank it in one gulp.
"Brother Lu must also think about the future. Now the Eastern Front of Bailie is supported by you brothers and sisters, which can be said to be a great reward for your hard work; but once Lu Qinglin returns home with a large army, he will shine brightly. Do I still think of your contribution in my eyes?"
Lu Qingbang poured himself another glass: "Good wine."
"What's more, the master doesn't know how to fight, and more than half of the military power is in your hands." He Lingchuan continued to provoke, "Even if you don't have any intention, wouldn't the master be on guard? I heard that Lu Zhensheng was originally a side branch and used some tricks. He has just become the master; since he has risen to the top in this way, should he be wary of others doing the same? "
Lu Qingbang drank half a glass of wine in one breath without saying a word.
At this moment, Lu Feiyan ran over and said, "Brother, someone is looking for you."
Lu Qingbang immediately stood up and said to He Lingchuan: "Brother He, I'm sorry."
He Lingchuan smiled: "Just go and get busy."
Watching his brother and sister running towards the bonfire, he asked with the soul-telling mirror in his arms: "Hey, are you too instigating? Will Lu Qingbang listen to you?"
"Even if he just came back from the front line, how could he not know the conflict between Lu Zhensheng and me?" He Lingchuan rubbed his eyes, "Why are you still talking to me? It's probably Lu Lao Liu's trick."
"Then Lu Laoliu wants to...?"
"So what I said is what they want to hear, and the clearer I say it, the better. They understand the difficulties faced by the Lu family better than I do. It is a mess. Lu Zhensheng can only survive with all his strength. He is suffering. Not only the people of Bailie, but also other people in the Lu family.”
"For the Lu Qingbang brothers and sisters, they must either persevere selflessly for the sake of the family until Lu Qinglin returns grandly; or, they must obtain a status commensurate with their strength from the clan." He Lingchuan said slowly, "The Lu family brothers and sisters have just emerged. If If they can continue to win, Lu Zhensheng will have to rely on them and carefully consider their requests. "
The soul-catching mirror smiled and said: "So we are back to the old problem, what should we do if the resources are not allocated enough?"
"Yes, because of Lu Zhensheng's improper strategy, Bailie's financial resources have long been insufficient to support the expenses of both fronts at the same time. If you support Lu Qinglin, you will treat the Eastern Front badly, and if you support the Eastern Front, you will not be able to cope with Mou Guo. So Lu Zhensheng is particularly afraid of the Eastern Front. The war on the front line escalated, and Lu Qingbang was even asked to let Yaguo and Shao win the battle. "
He breathed out: "The leader of the clan regards this as his virtue. No wonder the rest of the Lu family are not convinced."
The soul-catching mirror was puzzled: "Then why did Lu Laoliu come to test you?"
"He is still afraid of Lu Qinglin." He Lingchuan said, "Lu Zhensheng's second son has indeed had a successful official career in Mou State, and we cannot rule out the possibility that he will lead troops back to Bailie. Therefore, Lu Laoliu wants to find out my attitude. because--"
He Lingchuan took a sip of wine:
"——I have soldiers."
Yangshan Islands started to form a guard team eight months ago, and recruited openly. The Lu family had heard about it a long time ago. Because of the natural concealment of the islands, Lu Laoliu didn't know the exact number of people in the guard team, but he had been in contact with He Lingchuan for so long, and he knew that the island owner was definitely not a pushover. The industry of Yangshan Islands is getting bigger and bigger, how could there be no corresponding military protection?
Soul-catching mirror was shocked, and then overjoyed: "He finally figured it out? It's worth your planning for so long."
"Not necessarily, maybe it's just a rainy day, I think it's not even a stroke yet. You also know that connections and relationships should be maintained diligently at ordinary times, it's too late to find them now." He Lingchuan shook his head, "Lu Zhensheng seems to have a problem in his life, hesitating. Even if a good opportunity is right in front of him, he waits and waits, and it's delayed."
"What are you going to do?"
"Maybe, I have to push them at the critical moment."
Then, He Lingchuan grabbed a stone to scare the crabs again.
But based on the Soul Mirror's understanding of him, this guy probably has a plan in mind.
…
The next morning, before the residents of Yangshan Islands woke up from the revelry of the Spring Festival, He Lingchuan received good news.
A white egret flew to Centipede Island, folded its wings and landed to report:
"Island Master, Sodin Island Pier reported two long-distance large ships coming from the west, full of monsters, one of which is mainly wild boar monsters!"
The cabin is full of wild boars, which is really spectacular. It can hear the grunting sound from a long distance, which is also eye-opening.
Pigs? He Lingchuan immediately became energetic: "Have they landed?"
Lingguang's blue pill really works. He drank all night last night, and he didn't feel dry in the mouth when he woke up this morning.
"No, it hasn't completely landed yet. The dock is not sure whether to let them go to the island." Huang Zhao sent the white egret to ask He Lingchuan.
"No. You ask Huang Zhao to go to the bow and hang a sign, and tell the captain to sail directly to Pansi Island!" He Lingchuan dressed and tied his hair, "I'll be there soon!"
The waters of Pansi Island are restricted areas, and foreign ships have no right to enter. Unless they get a temporary sign, they will be driven away by Yin Hu.
He Lingchuan has a private dock on Centipede Island, so he will board the ship and rush to Pansi Island directly.
Today is a breeze, and the waves are vast.
He Lingchuan waited for a long time at the Pansi Island dock before seeing two large ships slowly approaching.
Their style is different from the local ships in Blade Port, and they are obviously from the ocean.
When the ship docked, He Lingchuan finally saw a burly figure appear on the bow.
What a big wild boar!
Its size is almost catching up with Zhu Erniang, and its body is covered with a layer of gray-brown mud armor, and the fangs protruding from the mouth are longer than those of ordinary elephants.
"King Sven!" He Lingchuan said with a smile, "We have been waiting for you for a long time!"
The last time He Lingchuan saw it in the Demon Nest Swamp, it was defeated by Zhu Erniang and escaped as a naked pig; now seeing it again, he found that the mud armor on King Sven's body was thicker, darker and harder than before, and he didn't know if it was out of compensation.
King Sven jumped ashore, and the whole pier was trembling violently under the pressure, and the wood creaked. Fortunately, it was of high quality and did not break on the spot.
The giant wild boar first looked around and observed the surrounding environment.
The island is open, the terrain is complex, and the jungle is dense. It also smelled the smell of fresh water. Well, this place is not bad.
It turned back and roared, and the wild boars on the boat jumped down one after another.
Big and small, of different sizes, they are all King Sven's people.
One, two, three, four, five, He Lingchuan counted silently in his mind, and counted to thirty-six.
Huh, it seems to be less than he expected.
The number of wild boars he saw in the Demon Nest Swamp was at least doubled.
Did King Sven only bring a small number, or...?
Some monsters also came down from another large ship, five of which were birds, two giant pythons, and a monster that looked like a giant dog but had horns on its head and was covered with dotted patterns.
Identified by the Soul Mirror, this beast was named "Cunning", alert and solitary.
After it got off the ground, it really ran into the jungle without looking back.
There were also many hoofed monsters, and the two white-bodied black-tailed darts that made He Lingchuan's eyes light up when he saw them.
They were shaped like horses but had sharp teeth in their mouths, and their tails were more like dragon tails than horse tails, which were very beautiful. They were nearly eight feet tall at the shoulders. Although they were huge, they were extremely light. They jumped from the bow of the ship to the pier, making almost no sound.
This was a real dart, not the dart beast that He Lingchuan often encountered.
One word difference, a big difference.
In ancient times, the wingless Pegasus was called the wingless Pegasus, and it could take off with the wind. It is not their problem that they cannot do so today, as they still have the talent to control the wind and can run faster and longer than most land creatures. It’s just that the spiritual energy is too thin to support them in flying.
