After shook his head, as if he wanted to put these disorderly thoughts aside, Wufeng tried hard to calm his mind and return his thoughts to the question in front of him. "Longdong is a strategic location and it is indeed worthy of attention, but I think the Empire will probably see this and will not let it go. I guess the divisions of the Empire City Guard Corps are also staring there. Even if we can conquer the Longdong Prefecture City, we may have to withdraw obediently. And the Taiping Sect, Bo Jinchen, will not be unable to see the importance of the Longdong Prefecture City. There will definitely be countermeasures. Sending troops to seize the Queqiao Pass is probably to prevent us from attacking the Longdong Prefecture City on both sides."

All three agreed with Wufeng's opinion, but they also felt that it would be a pity if they didn't take this opportunity to take over Longdong Prefecture City, and they were unwilling to smack their lips.

"Okay, I think we can speed up the collection of information in Longdong. If we don't take it at this time, it does not mean that we won't take action in the future. Since the empire is confident of taking it off by itself, then let's stand by and watch." Wufeng said thoughtfully, "What do you think about Xikang?"

"I don't think we should send troops to Xikang now. The land is vast and crowded there. Unless we take over the city of Xikang in one go, there is no need to disperse the troops that we already thought were insufficient. It is best to wait for the time to ripe and conquer Longdong first." Long Zizhang expressed his own opinion.

"I also agree with Zixing's view. Now our strength is slightly weak. Both the Taiping Army and the Imperial Army are quite considerable. We can only wait for an opportunity at this time." Mulige also supports Long Zixing's view.

After hearing what the two said, Wufeng felt very pleased. He was worthy of being the head of his main division. Although he was eager to achieve success in war, he was not blind and reckless. He was able to calmly judge the direction of his actions based on the situation on the battlefield and the power comparison between the enemy and us. This is the minimum quality of becoming a commander who is independent. It can be seen that these two people have indeed matured a lot in the past few years, but the house inside seemed a little frigid. It seems that more training would be of great benefit to his growth.

"Well, everyone should go down and rest. When it's time to arrange it, let's arrange it. Since this Partridge Pass has fallen into our hands, we have to keep it well. The logistics work, especially the defense, will be handed over to the Independent Second Division. I think there is still a lot of defensive equipment needed here. You'd better send someone to coordinate with the combat readiness agency and let them deliver it as soon as possible." Although Wu Feng was very happy, he did not show his voice, but just made a simple arrangement.

Back in the study, he took the thick piece of information handed to him by Qin Shuangying. It was the information sent back by Gu Dengyun from Hanzhong. How could there be so much? Wufeng was a little surprised. He took it and was attracted after reading a few words.

The lights in the study room were lit up, and Wufeng was still reading carefully, sometimes frowning and sometimes sighing. It was obvious that this information was very important. After reading it, Wufeng stroked his forehead and pondered, and even did not notice the tea cup that Qin Shuangying handed to his hand.

"Brother Feng, take a break." After waking up from his thoughts, Wufeng quickly took the teacup from the beauty's hand, subconsciously put it to his mouth and took a sip, but his thinking was still on the information sent back by Gu Dengyun. This is a summary of information from Taiping Cult in the Kansai area in recent times. It is quite detailed. What satisfied Wufeng the most was that there were many personal opinions of Gu Dengyun in the middle of this. These opinions were very consistent with Wufeng's appetite, and some suggestions put forward were quite realistic, which shocked Wufeng.

The situation of Taiping Church in Kansai has changed new changes, especially in pacifying people's hearts.

First of all, the Taiping Cult changed the original idea of ​​confiscating the land of the nobles and landlords to the poor religious people. Instead, the land of the nobles and landlords who fled because they were afraid of the Taiping Cult was confiscated and distributed to the religious people. The nobles, merchants and landlords who maintained good relations with the Taiping Cult and were willing to cooperate with the Taiping Cult. Since most of the escaped imperial gentry with a large amount of land, there was a lot of land left, and the poor religious people also had relatively sufficient land, and the interests of the upper gentry who were willing to cooperate with the Taiping Cult were also protected. Therefore, the situation in the entire Kansai area has become relatively calm, and the rule of the Taiping Cult has been temporarily recognized to a certain extent among the middle and upper gentry in the local area, which is quite beneficial to the consolidation of the Taiping Cult.

Secondly, Taiping Church has also taken some new measures in the economy, such as tax reduction and exemption to buy middle and lower-class industrialists and farmers who own small plots of land, promulgated some regulations to encourage the development of industry and commerce, and increased the crackdown on the great nobles, landlords and merchants who were closely related to the imperial government, confiscated all their property, and obtained huge funds to lay the material foundation for expanding military power.

Third, it has weakened and weakened some of the more extreme doctrines in the original teachings, such as equalizing the rich and poor, abolishing slavery, and strictly prohibiting the use of slave labor. Although it has not been completely abolished, it has also won the recognition of many people.

In short, these measures have greatly consolidated the rule of Taiping Cult in the Kansai region. Many businessmen have taken the initiative to express their willingness to cooperate with Taiping Cult, and many people have also expressed their conditions to accept the management of Taiping Cult.

In his letter, Gu Dengyun proposed that measures should be taken to poison the local atmosphere, provoke conflicts between all aspects and classes in the local area, including the neutral and pro-Taiping sects, and divide and disagree from the inside; in addition, externally, economic blockade of the Taiping Cult control area should be increased, and economic exchanges with those merchants who are willing to cooperate with the Taiping Cult control area should be prohibited. Special measures can be used to crack down on them if necessary.

It can be seen that Gu Dengyun has devoted a lot of effort to this information. Whether it is the situation introduction and the response measures, it is reasonable and well-founded. Wufeng nodded and did not sleep all night.

Seeing the battle report sent back from Longdong and Xikang, Bo Jinchen was shocked. Li Wufeng really took action and he had faced the Holy Sect Army as soon as he came. It seemed that he was still a little careless. If he took the lead, the situation might not be so serious.

Sighing, Bo Jinchen stood up, and the map on the desk flickered under the oil lamp. The master and several sect envoys in the sect had left Guanxi and turned to Heshuo to the north. The second young master also went to the Maqi Khanate. The north was about to start a rebellion, and all the affairs of Guanxi were handed over to himself. He suddenly felt that the pressure was increasing, but the situation became more and more serious. If you were not careful, it would have serious consequences for future development.

He carefully passed through his mind the information sent from various places. Bo Jinchen's face became more and more shady under the light. Although the situation was severe, it was not yet uncontrollable. It seemed that the empire was determined to refuse the "help" of the Northwest Army. Otherwise, Li Wufeng's army would not have stopped, but it depends on how long the empire could last.

Bo Jinchen is still very confident in the defense of Longdong Prefecture City. The defender of Longdong City is his own favorite disciple, with nearly 50,000 troops, and the city wall has been thickened and reinforced. Moreover, some measures have been taken to improve the situation in Longdong. However, if the Northwest army and the imperial army attacked each other, there would be danger. There is no trend in this regard now, but it does not mean that the enemy will still hold on like this as the situation develops. In many cases, the situation will change with the changes in the situation.

It seems that we have to consider supporting Xikang, in case that the Northwest Army will inevitably take advantage of the situation once the situation changes. Bo Jinchen was walking around the table while carefully thinking about his strategy to deal with it.

Thirty thousand people could not withstand a battle, and there were only eight thousand left. It seems that the strength of the Northwest Army is still underestimated. If the Imperial Army were like this, I would probably have to admit that it had failed. We have to make some arrangements and we must not let Li Wufeng take the opportunity to take advantage of it.

Liang Chongxin looked at the urgent report in his hand with a gloomy face. This was an emergency report from Qingyang, which was sent by a special snow pigeon. It seemed that things were not a good thing. The people next to him looked at each other, wondering what happened that made Liang Chongxin look so cautious.

After reading the letter, Liang Chongxin was a little depressed. These Western Regions hotspots really knew how to choose the time. At this time, they actually wanted to set up a joint defensive front. It seemed that they were impatient. This so-called joint defensive front was too obvious. It was not for him to be convenient for him, but for Luo Beiren. What would Luo Beiren think?

Now that his battle against the people on the Zang people has just begun, he has gathered so many troops and wanted to fight a good battle, it seems that he is about to fail. In the letter, he wants to see the overall situation by himself and not lose the big picture. The implication is that he should stop the battle against the people on the Zang people on the Zang people at the right time and not force the other party to be anxious. It seems that his cleverly designed battle is only left to the shelf. He smacked his lips with regret. Liang Chongxin glanced at the four people next to him and said calmly: "What are you looking at? Go back and rest!"

"Boss Liang, what's going on?" Helian Botten stood up and asked in a rough voice.

"Yes, Lord Liang, the children are still waiting to fight a good battle and teach those Indian rabbits!" The man who was ready to try was naturally because of Shan Zhu, the commander of the Luzon Independent Infantry Division. "That battle a few days ago was like scratching, and there was no meaning at all. If you want to fight, you will be happy."

Ignoring the two, Liang Chongxin ordered directly: "Come here! Go and invite Lord Luman to come, and said I would like to discuss with him how to ask someone to talk to the people who are in trouble about the ransom of the captives."

"Yes!" The soldier who received the order had just left the door and the room seemed to be in an uproar.

"What?! Release the prisoners?!" Helianbo jumped up and shouted strangely: "What's going on? Why don't you fight? At this time, we talk about releasing the prisoners. What does it mean?"

"Then what do you mean?" Liang Chongxin turned his face calmly and asked.

Helianbo was so choked that he almost couldn't speak, and his dark face turned red, "I, I mean, Boss Liang, can you explain to us what's going on?"

"Yes, there must be a reason. We worked hard to design such a plan and had a miscarriage silently. Uh, this, isn't it?" Shanzhu muttered with thick lips. Seeing Liang Chongxin's eyes swept over, he had to take back the words to his mouth.

Although the other two were confused, they didn't say much, but their eyes were obviously waiting for his explanation. After a sigh of relief, Liang Chongxin said: "Do you think I am willing to do this? Don't I want to deal with these guys who are strong and hard at home? But the situation has changed. The guys in our north are a little restless, and we have to deal with those guys first."

"Oh? Are the countries in the Western Regions going to be raising their tails again?" Linghu Yi continued.

"Well, I'm never giving up. The joint plan at the beginning of the year was ruined by Su Qin. Now, it's coming again, but this time it was carried out secretly. It seems that we are also guarding against us. I don't know where the adults got the information?" Liang Chongxin shrugged and smiled: "There is no way, the adults can only obey everyone."

"Then, there is no need to fight if there is no fight?" Shanzhu asked with disappointment after licking his thick lips. A large group of brothers under his hands pestered him and asked for war all day long, making him feel overwhelmed.

No wonder they, when they recruited and selected them, they had to talk nonsense, and they had to fight with Lord Li, and they had to win the battle, and they could get promoted and make money after winning the battle. Ordinary soldiers didn't care much about the promotion. After all, the number of officers was limited, not everyone could be the one, but it was different to make money. As long as they won the battle, I heard that Lord Li has always been generous and never treats brothers who won the battle unfairly. These words were hyped by his own men, and the troops were training more and more hard, and everyone was holding their energy to fight him. Now, it was great. I just caught a battle and it was not satisfied yet, and it was a waste again.

"Hehe, don't worry, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop. I see that these guys in the Western Regions are also itchy. We need to scratch him. I want to see if this joint defensive front can defend us?" Liang Chongxin's words were also full of fighting spirit. It is obvious that his plan was very unhappy by this sudden incident.

"Captain of the division, do you think the countries in the Western Regions have established this so-called joint defensive front and do not care about Luo Beiren in the north?" Qu Bo, who had not spoken, finally got the point.
