Imperial warlords: Cannons are the only truth

Early the next morning.

The capital city—the General's residence.

"Your secret intelligence agency handled the incident at Imperial Square yesterday quite well."

"I'm afraid those foreigners now think that Yan Shuyuan and his gang were actually arranged by us."

"This is all thanks to the eloquence team that the chief of staff assigned to us."

"One person single-handedly took down Yan Shuyuan's gang. This team is absolutely perfect for our secret intelligence agency."

"Many tasks assigned to them yield unexpected results!"

When it comes to the eloquence team, Chen Guyan speaks highly of them.

"It seems to be quite easy to use."

Shen Moshen smiled and casually placed the document he had just approved on the table: "It's not easy to get such praise from you, the top person in the secret intelligence agency!"

"It's not just convenient, it's incredibly easy to use and saves you a lot of trouble..."

Chen Guyan sighed, "Last night, I handed over several Western Roman spies that our secret intelligence agency had been unable to get to talk to to them for questioning."

"As a result, in less than an hour, all five enemy agents who had refused to speak confessed..."

"As long as they're easy to use, that's fine." Shen Moshen smiled. "Putting them in your secret intelligence agency will allow them to better utilize their value."

"By the way, besides what happened yesterday, there was another thing this morning that was truly a double celebration."

As Shen Moshen spoke, he pulled out a letter and handed it to Chen Guyan.

"This came from Phuwa this morning."

"Is this a distress letter?" Chen Guyan quickly scanned the letter's contents: "Fang Borong, Li Siyuan, Zhao Jin, Wu Zhengshan..."

Upon seeing these names, Chen Guyan quickly deduced their identities.

As the head of a secret intelligence agency, one certainly needs exceptional intellect.

"So, do these names sound familiar?"

"Former military governors Fang Borong, Li Siyuan, Zhao Jin, and Wu Zhengshan."

Chen Guyan directly and accurately revealed the background of these people: "The four of them were warlords who followed Zhuo Yongwang to fight against the rebels in the capital."

"After our troops left Youzhou, the first place we occupied was the territory of those four men."

"Finally, we watched as Zhuo Yongwang led the retreat from the capital."

"Having been abandoned halfway through the journey and having lost their territory, Fang Borong, Li Siyuan, Zhao Jin, and Wu Zhengshan led their troops across Xinyao Province, Jiangdian Province, and Yuanzhou Province before fleeing into the Kingdom of Puwa."

Chen Guyan smiled and said, "If the Chief of Staff hadn't ordered them to leave the country, they wouldn't have been able to lead their group to Phuwa."

"Now it seems—the move the Chief of Staff made back then is finally going to pay off..."

"Yes, this letter requesting help came at just the right time."

Shen Moshen nodded in high spirits: "In order to encircle our Great Qian, the Xiluo people have begun to intensify their deployment around us."

“After Fang Borong, Li Siyuan, Zhao Jin, and Wu Zhengshan led their troops to escape to the Kingdom of Phuwa, they quickly established themselves there.”

Shen Moshen got up and went to the world map hanging on the wall, looking at the southern part of the Great Qian: "There are many small countries bordering the Great Qian in this area."

"Back then, these small countries were all vassal states of our Great Qian Dynasty..."

"It's a pity, times have changed."

Looking at the map, Shen Moshen couldn't help but sigh, "The once mighty Qian Dynasty, with all nations paying tribute, has now fallen so low that it doesn't even have a single vassal state left..."

“With the Kingdom of Puwa as an example, these vassal states should be able to return soon.” Chen Guyan naturally understood Shen Moshen’s intention.

"Yes, it's time to take it back."

Shen Moshen stared at the map, lost in thought: "I promised the people of the Great Qian long ago—we will take back everything that the Great Qian lost in the past!"

"Fang Borong, Li Siyuan, Zhao Jin, and Wu Zhengshan have made contributions this time."

"Their letter requesting help gave us the best reason to send troops."

As he spoke, Shen Moshen turned around and sat back down in his seat: "It's like a sleepyhead finding a pillow, everything he wanted to hear came true!"

"Didn't the Western Luo people create a so-called 'Anti-Qian Alliance'?"

"We can't just stand by and watch—we'll form an alliance too!"

"The Gelian, Dunli, Lanxi, and Pulun people have drawn all the nations of the entire Xiluo continent into the anti-Qian alliance."

"Then let's integrate the resources of our Qianzhou Continent."

"The Western Luo people are the 'Anti-Qian Alliance,' so let's call ourselves..."

Shen Moshen thought for a moment, then said uncertainly, "Qianzhou Alliance?"

As soon as he said it, Shen Moshen rejected the name: "No, this name feels too ordinary."

"Our alliance of the Great Qian Standing Out Group must have a symbolic meaning and profound significance."

...........................

"Have it!"

After a moment of contemplation, Shen Moshen immediately made up his mind: "Let's call it—Revitalize the Alliance."

The word "revitalize" is quite fitting for the occasion.

"It not only fits the meaning but also overlaps with the character '振' (zhen) in our Great Qian Zhenguo Army."

"That's it!"

"This battle is not only to restore the glory of our Great Qian, but also to revitalize the entire Qianzhou continent."

"After this battle, the center of the world can only be Qianzhou!"

"The center of Qianzhou can only be the Great Qian!"
