Section 40 Autonomous Government
General Solon, who was full of despair, looked at the tragic image in front of him. The raging fire was still burning. The soldiers like ants were helplessly lifting water from the nearby reservoir to try to suppress the fire. However, all this seemed so futile. Forage and grain, as well as a large number of wooden siege equipment, had been burned for a long time. The fire, which had been burning for more than three hours, was no longer controlled by manpower. The fire took advantage of the wind, and even dozens of miles away, you could see the rolling smoke coming out here. If you want to extinguish the fire, you can only hope to open your eyes. However, it is already late autumn. The land of Luzon has already passed the rainy season and entered the dry season. Where can you find this heavy rain?
There may also be a pungent smell of meat burning in the air. I don’t know whether it was the dead horse or the dead soldiers’ bodies being swept into the fire circle. As the head coach of Comine on the Western Front battlefield, Solon clearly realized what it would be to wait for him.
This fire has completely destroyed the hope of the Comini army advancing east. You must know that this is the bridgehead of the Comini army's eastern expedition and the most important supply center for the army. After careful search, even though we knew that there was no decent armed force nearby, Solon still arranged 20,000 troops to garrison here to ensure the absolute safety of this logistics center. I never thought that such a big mistake would still happen!
In addition to the more than 100,000 troops stationed on the front line, the second batch of reinforcements of 100,000 troops are also ready to set off. The current situation is that there is no grain of food stored. How can this more than 200,000 troops live together?! Solon was so desperate that he was about to go crazy. He could even imagine what his ending would be. A noose would definitely not be able to escape. He could even imagine that his wives, concubines and children would be demoted to slaves and trampled on others. When he thought that his beautiful wives, concubines and daughters would be ravaged by those political enemies with human faces and beasts, he felt that his heart was bleeding.
What should I do? The painful choice is placed in front of me. Should I withdraw my troops and wait for the trial of the military court according to common sense or just commit suicide? Thinking of this, Solon even wanted to whistle to the sky to vent his violent mood.
The weather in Northern Luzon, which was late in autumn, was already a little cool. Lie on the fluffy and soft bed, the jade man in his arms was hugging him after a night of clouds and rain, and was still sleeping soundly. Wufeng glanced at the girl under him with a loving look, his smooth skin and a passionate body. All of this made Wufeng not have the slightest look of getting up. Alas, it would be great if he could sleep peacefully for a day. Wufeng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, but the many things in front of him forced Wufeng to restrain his fantasy and reluctantly pull out his body from the woman under him.
"Brother Feng, are you going to get up?" A lazy voice came from behind. Needless to ask, of course, it was Yun Yi lying on the bed.
It has been more than a week since it entered Vito City. With the arrival of the Third and Fourth Divisions, the situation in Northeast Luzon, centered on Vito City, has been completely controlled by Wufeng. However, the complicated matters that followed also made Wufeng feel a little overwhelmed. Even with Ling Tian's assistance, Wufeng was still annoyed. Fortunately, Mu Haoran, deputy director of the Northwest Administrative Office, who was busy with Gaoyue people in the east, had come to an end there. He came to Vito City the day before yesterday, and followed by more than 20,000 Gaoyue militia led by Shanzhu, who had been reorganized.
Mu Haoran's arrival greatly reduced Wufeng's pressure. His group of administrative management veterans were not comparable to those soldiers in the army who did not understand local affairs. They soon entered the role and fought fiercely with representatives of all ethnic groups and forces in Vito City, and took on the important task of establishing a local autonomous government. However, due to the initial establishment of the government and the interests of multi-ethnic groups, Wufeng still needed to express his opinion in many major principles, and Ling Tianfang focused on the reorganization training of the army and the adjustment of defense, so Wufeng still could not be relaxed.
"Well, you can rest for a while, you were so crazy last night." Wufeng got up to dress and turned his head to tease the girl on the bed. Yun Yi on the bed held her lower jaw with one hand, and a silk quilt was placed on her body to cover her seductive naked buttocks, while her curved upper body was fully exposed, and even the pink buds on the top of the peak were clearly visible. Since he was in Wufeng that night, Yun Yi has been staying in Wufeng's room almost every night, but she is still a little embarrassed to hide it. Women are so strange. Once you have her for the first time, their attitude towards you is as different from that before, and there is no concealment.
A hint of blush appeared on his face. Seeing his lover staring at his chest with a burning look, Yun Yi quickly pulled up the quilt to cover his firm chest, "It's time for me to get up and practice."
"Practice Kung Fu? Don't you see when it's time now, and you're still practicing Kung Fu? I think you'd better sleep for a while." Wufeng looked at Yun Yi with a smile. This girl was unable to get out of bed for several days. She didn't think that when she was in Qingyang, she got up early every morning to practice Kung Fu.
"Then why did you get up so early?" Yun Yi lay down again after hearing this.
"It's getting late. I still have a lot of things to do today. I have to get up early." Wufeng put his hands into the silk quilt and pinched them on the girl's strong yard buttocks, and then he reluctantly left the bedroom.
When Wufeng stepped into the spacious conference hall, there were already celebrities in the conference hall, waiting for him. Today's conference is very important. After preliminary preparations, coupled with the frequent consultations with representatives from Mu Haoran and others over the past two days, the forces of all parties have basically reached an agreement on the structure of the autonomous government. Just wait for the final consultation on certain details today and then report to Wufeng for approval, and then it can be implemented.
When he walked into the meeting hall, Wufeng enthusiastically greeted representatives of various forces and asked about his well-being, and from time to time he patted someone on the shoulder to show concern. It seemed that Wufeng and these people were old friends for many years, but who would have thought that Wufeng and these people had only had a few days of friendship, and many of them were still arguing with Wufeng's subordinates over their respective interests.
When Wufeng ascended the main seat in the middle, the originally noisy meeting room suddenly calmed down. Wufeng casually glanced at everyone present, as if he was careless, but almost everyone felt that this glance seemed to have looked into their hearts. Some people with ulterior motives couldn't help but shiver.
"Everyone, I don't want to say more other gossips, let's talk straight to the point. All of us here are the gentry and celebrities in our Vito area, and they also represent more than one million people of all ethnic groups and places in our Vito area. Today we gather here to establish a local autonomous government that is in line with the interests of all parties, and of course the premise is to obey the management of the Tanghe Empire." Li Wufeng opened his head bluntly. When he said the last sentence, his eyes quickly scraped across the faces of the people sitting there. Although he smiled when he spoke, his eyes were full of cold chill, which made people unconsciously avoid his gaze.
"In the early stage, you have done a lot of work on the establishment and structure of the autonomous government and reached a basic consensus. I don't want to ask about other details. You can talk to Mr. Mu Haoran again. What I want to say today is only a few words, which are not only advice to you and encourage you. First, once the autonomous government is established, it means that the empire is the exercise of power on behalf of me. No matter which ethnic group or individual must obey the government's management, and cannot resist for any reason; Second, since the autonomous government is formed by consultations between all parties, it will of course represent the interests of all parties, resolutely protect the legitimate interests of all parties, and will severely punish acts that infringe on the legitimate interests of all parties; Third, the autonomous government is under the jurisdiction of the empire. Everyone represents the majority of people and fellow villagers. I hope that everyone will put the interests of the overall situation first and do not commit acts that harm the interests of the empire, as it will be a disaster for the entire nation or place he represents."
Wufeng briefly expressed his meaning clearly. The venue was filled with solemnity, and even the cough could not be heard. He coughed dryly in satisfaction. Wufeng continued to speak: "Of course, as the territory of the empire, the central government of the empire will strongly support the economic development of the Vito area and promote the economy of the region to a higher level. I believe that this goal is also something you are happy to see. Finally, if you have any questions, you can ask in person, and as long as I can answer, I will be open and honest."
Wufeng's words immediately won the warm welcome from several burly and dark middle-aged men on the left. One of the middle-aged men who seemed to be leading the way clapped their hands to welcome him while standing up and saying, "Mr. Li said very much. We Gaoyue people put the overall situation first in everything, firmly obey Lord Li's arrangements and orders, and ensure that the orders are imposed, and will never go against Lord Li's wishes."
"Elder Shiliu, you are so polite. As long as everyone agrees, I think the future of our Vito area is infinitely bright." Wufeng politely nodded and smiled at the middle-aged man Gao Yue.
"Sir, I want to ask a question. I heard that I intend to divide Northern Luzon into two parts, east and west, or Vito area, and another area to the west. I wonder if this is the case?"
When he stood up, he spoke with a thin old man dressed in Andean dress. His face was yellow and his general appearance was like a patient. He also seemed to be a little indifferent to the elder Gao Yue people opposite him. He obviously looked down on the so-called barbarians. After getting up, he respectfully performed a Luzon aristocratic etiquette before he started asking.
