Chapter 383 The Grand Trend Has Become a Reality (asking for monthly tickets)

After Li Guanyi defeated the Wolf King, the cunning and heroic old wolf retreated in a way that Li Guanyi was helpless about. He wanted to chase him again, but at this point, he had already exhausted all his means.

Four-party coalition.

Li Guanyi's realm breaks through with the blessing of the Nine Cauldrons.

The Fire Kirin suddenly rose up.

The core is the hidden card that the Western Region coalition forces belong to Li Guanyi.

Seizing the opportunity of the Wolf King advancing with 50,000 troops, the State of Chen, the State of Ying, Li Guanyi, and the Western Regions jointly pushed nearly 300,000 troops onto the battlefield, but they still failed to completely keep this experienced general away.

Li Guanyi felt that it would be difficult for him to have such an opportunity again to capture a lone divine general, and it would also be difficult for him to have the opportunity to defeat the Wolf King into such an embarrassing state again.

He suddenly had a feeling that this might be his last head-on confrontation with the Wolf King on the battlefield. The sharpshooter general Wang Shunchen had already arrived with the Western Region coalition forces. Seeing the appearance of the Canglang Guard cavalry in front of him, his expression changed.

Li Guanyi sighed and turned around.

The Fire Kirin strolled, wearing the armor of a Central Plains general and a fluttering scarlet battle robe.

His brows were calm, which was different from the traveling merchants from the Central Plains.

Wang Shunchen couldn't help but lower his head. Li Guanyi's personality would not change. This was completely from his heart. It was the instinctive oppression brought about by the power of the top general and the trend of the world.

Qin Wu.

He led his army back and returned to the city of Anxi.

This time, Li Guanyi's camp almost completely unleashed all its strength.

Pojun, Wenhe, Yan Daiqing, Yuanzhi, Fanqing, Wang Shunchen, Qibili, Ling Pingyang and other counselors and generals all played to their full potential, and with the addition of a hidden trump card, they completed this battlefield that will go down in history.
It’s a pity that after completing the strategy for this part of the Western Regions, Qibili and Ling Pingyang were still in the heart of the Western Regions, leading their troops on their way back.

Although the Nine-Colored Divine Deer has a good temperament, it is unable to carry so many elite soldiers in heavy armor.

After the war, although there were some gains, it was also necessary to reward the soldiers and generals, and provide compensation for the casualties. Although the Wolf King came with great momentum, his army was in a state of collapse at any time, and was not much richer than Li Guanyi.

By the way, he also gave Li Guanyi more than 40,000 big-bellied men who were good at eating and using food.

Even war horses need to eat meat, and they need soybeans and eggs as snacks.

Li Guanyi sensed Yan Daiqing's habit and felt a black screen in front of his eyes and a stomachache. In the battle with the Wolf King, except for gaining a great momentum and a great name in the world, it was all a loss.

There are nearly 50,000 Canglang Guards, and their food and rations are equivalent to the consumption of an ordinary army of 150,000 or even 200,000.

Wolf King, in a way.

Defeat Qin Wuhou.

Li Guanyi was a little lost. Nangong Wumeng stood there for a long time with his hands behind his back. He came over, left, and came over again. In the end, he just reached out and touched the dazed general's hair. The general raised his head:
"Ah, Nangong..."

Li Guanyi's eyes were blank: "Have you found the Golden Mountain?"

Nangong Wumeng gnashed his teeth and said, "You only have Jinshan in your eyes?"

Li Guanyi thought about it, and said with hope, "Yinshan is also fine."

"Are you making a wish?! Damn it!"

Nangong Wumeng kicked Li Guanyi and left angrily.

After a while, he came over again and said shyly:

"There are no mountains of gold or silver."

"Copper vein, okay?"

Li Guanyi: "Copper vein...what?!"

Qin Wuhou was stunned, then burst into laughter.

"Haha, Wu Meng, you are such a lucky star!!"

"No, you are my God of Wealth!"

Nangong Wumeng rolled his eyes.

Li Guanyi said that the God of Wealth is indeed the most beautiful woman in the world.

Even rolling her eyes is so charming.

Nangong Wumeng's face flushed red. He was ejected three feet away and hid behind a pillar. He shouted, "What, what yours, you you you..."

"You have no shame!"

"you you you!"

Nangong Wumeng fled in defeat.

Although a copper vein has been found and mining can generate a considerable income, it cannot relieve the financial pressure in a short period of time. However, Yan Daiqing has become accustomed to such things.

Every morning, drink a cup of strong green tea and start working.

pressure?

Huh? In the past three years, has there ever been a time when Tiance Mansion didn't have financial pressure?
Oh, yes, it was last year when the lord was not in Jiangnan.

Yan Daiqing completed the logistics, inventory of spoils, compensation for casualties and so on in an orderly manner without any problems. All the generals and captains were convinced.

Then, there were several days of political discussions and feasting.

Only the Wolf King knew the truth about the Western Region Allied Forces. Lu Youxian, Jiang Gao and others were too far away to realize that Li Guanyi could control the military formations of the Western Region Allied Forces. But even so, it at least represented an alliance between Li Guanyi and the Western Regions.

Plus the achievement of defeating the Wolf King.

The power of Qin Wuhou grew stronger, and the Wolf King, who was likely to cause the alliance to fall apart, emerged again, causing the alliance, which was riddled with internal conflicts, to continue to exist.

Under such circumstances, even the general of Chen State's western defense line and the crown prince of Ying State had to stay in Anxi City temporarily to discuss many matters of the alliance.

That night, during the banquet, Yan Daiqing managed to prepare something of similar standard under such circumstances. Even if he was entertaining a prince or a famous general from another country, he did not seem disrespectful at all.

However, the host turned out to be Lei Laomeng.

The omnipotent Lei Laomeng, with broad shoulders and a strong body, looks like a black bear. He wears gorgeous clothes and his chest is bulging. His martial arts foundation is ordinary. At this moment, he is only slightly stronger than Mr. Pojun, who is the shame of Tiance Mansion's individual combat power.

He still liked to wear that kind of scale armor, which was loose and safe, and also made him feel comfortable on the battlefield. This slippery clothing made him feel that if a few archers came out nearby, they would shoot him into a pile.

He managed a few pleasantries.

Seeing so many guests looking at him, Lei Laomeng's scalp went numb.

No one spoke, no one laughed at him.

But because of this, the awkward atmosphere became even more severe.

But it caused a heartless laugh: "Lei Laomeng, you old man, you also come to do such a literary job? What, no one else?"

Lei Laomeng looked over and saw Ying Guofang and Yu Wenhua, dressed in armor, laughing wantonly.

Although the tone was teasing, it made Lei Laomeng relax.

Yuwen Tianxian raised his glass and nodded slightly, his expression solemn and calm.

Lei Laomeng reluctantly struck up a conversation with the two men so that the banquet would not be too awkward or silent. He just glanced over. On the Chen State side, Chen State's veteran general Lu Youxian was seated, with the deputy general and military officer Lan Wendu next to him.

On one side were young generals such as Ye Buyi, Gong Zhenyong, and Zhou Liuying.

On the other side are veterans such as Wei Zitao and Yin Kailiang.

The atmosphere was so stagnant that Lei Laomeng's head ached.

On the Ying State side, sitting in the main seat was Ying State Prince Jiang Gao, and next to him was the famous general Qin Yulong.

In Lei Laomeng's eyes, Yuwen Tianxian and Yuwen Hua are the oldest people in Tiance Mansion, so he can't help but feel close to them.

Lei Laomeng just felt that such things made him feel very uneasy.

Mr. Pojun was originally in charge today. Even if Mr. Pojun was unwilling to come, it should be Mr. Wenhe or Mr. Yan Daiqing who should handle the banquet.

It's just a pity, a pity——

Unfortunately, there are not many counselors in the Qilin Army, but each of them has unique skills.

It can be said that there are many talented people and brilliant achievements.

Mr. Pojun plotted to destroy the power of Jiang Gao, the Crown Prince of Ying State.

Mr. Wen He burned the Wolf King's future with a fire, which seemed to be related to Lan Wendu.

Mr. Yan Daiqing doesn't want to see his old friends.

And because of the title of the number one barbecue master in the Western Regions, he felt extremely ashamed in front of old friends like Lu Youxian, Ye Buyi, and Zhou Liuying, so he picked up a logistics file, rolled it up like a bench, and went towards Mr. Wen He.

The atmosphere couldn't be good when Prince Jiang Gao of Ying State and famous general Lu Youxian of Chen State were both there.

Right now, the State of Chen and the State of Ying were fighting each other in the Central Plains, their eyes red with anger, wishing they could beat each other's brains out. The Yechi Cavalry and the Human Cavalry were killing each other on the battlefield.

The atmosphere between them was really not very good.

But Jiang Wen is gentle and Lu Youxian is calm.

Besides, they were an alliance in the Western Regions, so they did not fall out immediately. Also, because Qin Wuhou was already a powerful figure throughout the world at this moment, Jiang Gao and Lu Youxian had to give him some face in Anxi City, Qin Wuhou's territory.

But the thorns in the words were not concealed at all.

Jiang Gao said: "General Lu Youxian's defensive ability is well-known throughout the world. Why did he collapse at the first blow when he encountered the Wolf King this time?"

Lu Youxian was dumbfounded: "The Wolf King is brave and valiant, even He Ruo cannot defeat him even if he captures the tiger."

"What about me?"

Jiang Gao said, "Really? But why did you send troops out later?"

Lu Youxian said woodenly: "The Wolf King is brave."

Jiang Gao smiled and said, "Really? I thought General Lu Youxian and the Wolf King were secretly cooperating with each other."

Lu Youxian looked at him and said, "The Wolf King is brave."

After a pause, he continued, "If you want to accuse someone of something, you can always find a pretext."

"If you say that you have lost the battle with the Wolf King, it is better for you, the prince, to lead the troops thousands of miles away."

"The war is over, long overdue."

Jiang Gao's expression was slightly gloomy. General Lu Youxian had always been a dull person. He didn't do anything or talk much, but once he did something, he would definitely gain something, and once he spoke, it would definitely hurt people's hearts.

At this moment, Jiang Gao had to either say that he had a connection with the Wolf King, or admit that Ying Guojun was being led by the Wolf King.

Jiang Gao did not respond directly, but just said: "Really?"

"However, these young generals around you seem to be planning to be deployed by the Anxi Army."

He raised his glass and smiled at Ye Buyi and the others over there, "Congratulations."

But no congratulations.

Lu Youxian said woodenly:

"It's better than His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who arrived just as the battle was over."

Jiang Gao smiled slightly, feeling that the old turtle was getting a little irritated.

Yu Wenhua's smile faded slightly, and he pressed the hilt of the knife. Ye Buyi thought that Zhou Liuying had once had a conflict with Yu Wenhua during the grand sacrifice of the State of Chen three years ago. Now that they met again, there was a sense of tit-for-tat between them again.

They exchanged a few words and the atmosphere became tense.

This had already made Lei Laomeng unable to control the situation. Lu Youxian and Jiang Gao both had angry looks on their faces, and Lei Laomeng felt as if he was going dark in front of his eyes.

I really can't do this.

Just as both sides were drawing their swords and knives, the sound of calm and powerful footsteps was heard.

A clear and calm voice came: "Everyone, you are in a good mood."

Lu Youxian's expression froze slightly, and Jiang Gao's pupils contracted.

Ye Buyi, Zhou Liuying, Yuwen Huaxing, and Yuwen Tianxian all underwent changes.

Amid the crashing sound——

The gate was opened by armored soldiers, and a solemn atmosphere came. A prince wearing armor, a battle robe, and his hair tied with a jade hairpin stood outside the door. The armor he wore at this moment was not battle armor, but ceremonial armor, which added to his majesty. It was also a scarlet battle robe with unicorn patterns on the sleeves for both civil and military officials.

He paced back and forth, wearing the Chixiao sword on his waist, looking around with a calm and murderous look.

Like a dragon or a tiger pacing.

The situation is set. Lu Youxian secretly hated not killing him. Jiang Gao's eyes were complicated. Qin Yulong saw the jade hairpin in Qin Wuhou's hair and felt familiar. He was slightly startled, then smiled, recognizing that this simple jade hairpin was the heirloom of the Xue family.

So he raised his glass and made a toast from afar.

Such a night banquet is meaningless and is just a waste of time. When Lu Youxian mentioned what Ye Buyi and others said in front of the battle, he wanted to put the matter to the test directly -

"It's just a young man who said those words in the heat of the moment while chasing the Wolf King on the battlefield. I hope you won't take it to heart and won't blame me."

He personally presented many gifts of gold and silver.

He even wanted to take these young generals away first.

After the job is done, give gold and silver as gifts to stop thinking about it.

But they didn't know who they listened to, and the 6,000 soldiers they brought were temporarily looked after by a man named Wen Qingyu. They were all allies of each other, and these soldiers were directly under Ye Buyi and others.

Normal soldiers don’t understand high-level political strategies, they just listen to their commander.

Wen Qingyu seems to be good at planning for himself.

Lu Youxian hit a snag and let Lan Wendu go.

However, after all the operations, Lan Wendu not only failed to bring the person out, but when he came back, there seemed to be hostility towards Lu Youxian in his eyes.

He is a poisonous person.

Lu Youxian's eyes were clear, but he was in the vortex, facing the martial arts and methods of Qin Wuhou, so he had to follow the rules here.

I brought up this matter at the banquet today in order to take advantage of the general trend to put pressure on Qin Wu Hou.

Zhou Liuying had not been able to talk to Li Guanyi, and when he heard Lu Youxian mention this matter, his heart skipped a beat. Looking at Li Guanyi, Ye Buyi just lowered his head to drink, but his hand dropped and had already grasped the hilt of the sword, which showed his mood at the moment.

Swords are not allowed at a banquet like this.

But the one he was facing was a legendary general. Who would dare to come to the banquet without a sword?

Qin Wuhou didn't look at the gold and silver, but just said: "They are my old friends. Since they are willing to fight here in Anxi City, it's also possible. After all, we are allies in the fight against the Wolf King."

Lu Youxian looked expressionless.

At the head, the prince with his battle robe hanging down looked calm and said:
"Isn't it?"

Lu Youxian looked at the pair of pupils that looked like dragons and tigers, but for some reason, he thought of the young man who rode a unicorn and rushed out of Guanyi City three years ago.

At that time, he was full of vigor but still immature, and wanted to rely on the power of the Qilin to escape.

The childish face in the memory overlaps with the majestic and calm prince at this moment.

Only a pair of eyes remain the same as before.

This sentence brought up the overall plan of Chen Dingye of the State of Chen.

Tell me, are we allies in the fight against the Wolf King?

Lu Youxian remained silent for a long time and said:
"……Yes."

Ye Buyi heaved a sigh of relief, Zhou Liuying already had a smile on his face. Ye Buyi sat there calmly, holding the wine, lowered his head, and saw ripples in the wine in the cup.

On that day, Ye Buyi, Zhou Liuying and others temporarily camped in Anxi City as allies. After the banquet, Li Guanyi personally took them together again, took out the good wine, and drank with the young men of the Jinwu Guard.

The estrangement between them back then seemed to have disappeared. Yu Wenhua paused beside the pillar, holding a glass of wine and muttering to himself, "I never thought that you would faint from exhaustion during the battle. Humph, you never saw my heroic figure."

He looked to the side and saw Fan Qing sitting there, still in armor.

The warrior recovered from severe exhaustion in just two days.

However, Fan Qing didn't know how shocked Yu Wenhua was when he saw him half dead.

At that time, Yu Wenhua almost roared in anger, then rushed out, and in an inappropriately familiar manner, he found Shi Dalin and then Lei Laomeng, and grabbed the two guys with one hand and ran back.

Fan Qing was unconscious for more than ten hours, and Yu Wenhua stayed at the door without moving.

After waking up, he came in person and laughed loudly.

Fan Qing said: "I never thought that when we meet again, we won't be enemies."

Yu Wenhua said: "That is indeed the case."

He tilted his head back to drink, and both of them were silent for a long time.

Yu Wenhua suddenly said: "I have reached the peak of the fifth level."

Fan Qing said: "Me too."

Yu Wenhua said: "I will fight the Wolf King!"

Fan Qing said: "Me too."

Yu Wenhua said: "I command six thousand!"

So, General Wang Shunchen, a sharpshooter with excellent eyesight, sat cross-legged on a high place, looking at the sky, drinking alone, enjoying the rare tranquility in this chaotic world of war. When he lowered his head, he saw a smile on Fan Qing's face, which was as still as a mountain and solemn and majestic.

"I have seven thousand."

Yu Wenhua's forehead was bulging with veins, and he was furious:
"Fan Qing!"

The two men threw away the cups in their hands, and fought each other the next day after they met.

Punch to the flesh.

Finally, he collapsed on the ground exhausted, laughing, feeling happy, and drinking.

This is also a heroic spirit of a man.

Unfortunately, the noise of the fight between the two men attracted the attention of the Qilin Army.

Finally, he was dragged away by Shi Dalin, who was grinning.

Anxi City won a great victory. This banquet was a rare and relaxing one. Li Guanyi chatted with Pojun, Wenhe and others. Pojun just sighed and said, "It's a pity."

"No more gods will despise you."

"Pretending to be weak, feigning defeat, and luring the enemy deep into your territory, this strategy is completely ineffective. In the past, because you are young, your failure would meet the expectations of those veterans, and they would subconsciously pursue you."

"Now my lord, if you lead your army to fight, you will say that you have failed."

"The hook will be too straight, and no fool would believe you will fail so easily."

"What a pity, what a pity..."

Pojun's mouth was full of regret.

Pojun's mouth never relaxed.

There seemed to be something behind me, shaking rapidly.

He almost wanted to run to Qin Yulong and Lu Youxian and say, "This is my lord, a young hero, the best in the world. Do you have such a lord? You don't have one, do you?"

He was tied up with a hemp rope by Mr. Wenhe, who looked gentle and smiling.

That led to me not being able to attend the banquet.

As for what Lei Laomeng thought, considering the face of the Prince of Ying and others?
joke!

Concerned about other people's self-esteem?
What it is?
It's as if he's saying that Wen He understands sympathy and regret!
Pojun sighed and was also drunk, but he held the wine cup and talked a lot to Li Guanyi. When Li Guanyi went to the Western Regions in person, Pojun alone supported all the open fronts and was responsible for the entire overall situation.

Even he had accumulated a lot of pressure.

Li Guanyi listened carefully to Pojun's words, and Pojun finally said in a daze:

"What a pity, what a pity—"

"This is the pinnacle of a pure warrior, my lord."

"In the future, victory in wars will not be achieved simply by strategy or bravery." He pulled Li Guanyi and said drunkenly, "The Wolf King was a hero and had a great army under his command, but he could not last long and was defeated. He had no power to return."

"But, Ying State and Chen State are both vast and boundless, my lord."

"The war afterwards."

"It's a national war."

"So, we must seize this great opportunity, we must seize it..."

Pojun passed out drunkenly, and Li Guan sniffed.

"…Ma Fei San?"

He turned his head. It was a cold winter day, but Mr. Wen He put his hands in his sleeves and had a warm smile.

Wen He, the relationship between Tian Ce Mansion and all its counselors is between bad and good at the same time.

Yet, this monster can inexplicably restrain all geniuses.

Normally, everyone thinks Wen He is the most dangerous.

But if you encounter extreme danger, this is the first person you think of.

Li Guanyi said: "Master, you drugged Mr. Pojun again..."

Wen He said: "It's just a medicine to calm the nerves. It's not Ma Fei San this time."

"My Lord, what you smelled was just because this wine pot often contains Ma Fei San, which slightly pickled the flavor."

Often put, Ma Fei San, pickled and flavored...

How do these things fit together?

But Li Guanyi felt that it would be more impressive if Mr. Wen He had one black eye socket and another purple eye socket when he said such words.

Po Jun was taken to rest.

When Yan Daiqing left, he said that at this moment, they had won a great victory and all the tribes in the Western Regions were under his command. The Khans proposed that they hope that the lord will become king and dominate. He paused and said, "But, it's still the same sentence."

Yan Daiqing looked at Li Guanyi and said, "Although the situation has already begun, we all feel that it is not yet time for us to claim the throne."

Li Guan nodded: "I understand."

Yan Daiqing nodded and left.

The banquet just now, the reunion of old friends, was really joyful and noisy, but it served as a contrast to the present moment. The banquet was over, everyone was drunk, and he felt inexplicably lonely. Li Guan turned around and paced. It was a cold day, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and he was slightly startled.

Under the silvery moonlight, a silver-haired girl sat quietly in the corner of the corridor, holding a book and waiting quietly.

Li Guanyi lowered his head and looked at the girl under the moonlight.

"You're here."

Yaoguang closed the book and said in a calm voice without any ripples:
"I'm waiting for you."

Li Guanyi just nodded. The silver-haired girl stood up, patted her clothes, then put her left hand in front of her body, holding the book, and stretched out her right hand to pull the sleeve of Li Guanyi's Qilin battle robe.

Under the moonlight, the entire troubled world was asleep. After the heroes rose up, it was a rare moment of peace. Li Guanyi's heart was calm, without any ripples.

The silver-haired girl lowered her eyes and stared at Li Guanyi's hand.

She had no expression.

Move your palm from top to bottom, little by little.

Try to hold that hand.

It's like trying to catch a firefly.

Closer, closer——

The sound of footsteps came.

The silver-haired girl had a blank expression on her face and put her hand back where it was.

Li Guanyi stopped in his tracks. In front of him stood a young man in a white robe, with a calm and handsome demeanor. He was also a rare person who had not drunk alcohol today. Li Guanyi said, "Brother Wenmian..."

The silver-haired girl's eyes were clear and she took a step back and looked at Chen Wenmian.

Chen Wenmian remained silent.

Today’s great victory was celebrated in celebration of his father’s great defeat.

He managed to sort out his thoughts, looked at Li Guanyi and the silver-haired girl over there, bowed, and said softly: "Chen Wenmian, meet you, big brother..."

The voice paused.

"Sister-in-law."
