The hall of the Prime Minister's Office in the middle of Stanley Street, Budley City, the capital of the Kaman Empire, was filled with joy. Prime Minister Gomez, who had always been steady, picked up a purple-red wine and raised his hand to signal, "Come on, let's have this drink to celebrate our success!"

The three people beside him also echoed and picked up the wine glass and drank it all, signaling the servant to take the wine glass away. Gomez smiled and greeted the guests to take the seat. The three men also knew that the Prime Minister was about to get to the point, so they all sat back to their respective seats.

"This conquering Jiayuguan depends on everyone here to work together to succeed. It is really a rare blessing for our Kaman Empire in hundreds of years. Now we can go south with confidence, so we can be at ease and at ease!" Gomez's eyes seemed to be squeezed by a smile, leaving only two cracks. After saying such words, even the three men were surprised. But then they thought, who can suppress their excitement with such brilliant achievements? Even when I heard the news, wasn't I so excited that I couldn't sleep all night?

"Well, the Prime Minister is right. Now that we have controlled Jiayuguan, we can not only easily move south through the Zagros Mountains, but even if the Sisro people want to enter the hinterland of the Tanghe people as quickly as possible, they also need to borrow our Jiayuguan! I heard that the Sisro people are very jealous now, so they collude with Sun Yuanhui to take down Yinchuan Mansion and open their own southward passage. Unfortunately, they underestimated this guy Li Wufeng and failed." The man who spoke looked proud, and there was always a hint of coldness on his thin face. He was Basten, the Minister of Intelligence of the Kaman Empire.

"Li Wufeng is a cunning guy, and sooner or later he will become a big trouble for us. It's a pity that our strength is limited now and we can't destroy him. But watching this guy take advantage of the trouble of raising a tiger, I am really afraid of raising a tiger." After receiving the secret order from the Prime Minister, Duke Mali put down his military affairs and quietly returned to Budley City from the battlefield of the Arm-Horse.

"Well, I have a premonition that this guy will eventually become our strong enemy." Duke Nick, who has always been taciturn, also made an exception and agreed with Duke Miley's opinion.

"But the smoke of gunpowder on the east battlefield is thick, and the Derroks have stabilized their positions with the help of the Tanghe people. We really don't have more power to deal with this guy. Although the Bo Yin people in the north are not moving, I am very worried if anyone wants to be a ghost in the middle." Gomez has returned to his usual calm appearance, and what he said also implies his meaning.

The sensitive Nick and Miley immediately turned their eyes to the intelligence minister on the side. The intelligence minister shrugged and said that he didn't know the situation. Gomez frowned and said calmly: "This is my premonition, there is no evidence. Baiyin has always been unruly. Although we have taken some comfort measures, it is not enough to keep those guys quiet for so long. Unusuality is often the beginning of the conspiracy, so I doubt that Lord Basten, I hope you can strengthen this information and never capsize in the gutter."

The intelligence minister nodded. Although he did not agree, the Prime Minister's arrangements must be implemented. Fortunately, the area where Bai Yinren lives has always been simple, and if there is any abnormal situation, you can quickly notice it.

"Let's talk about our main topic. Taiping Cult has sent news that they will incur the incident within one month and hope that we will cooperate with each other." Gomez calmly revealed the shocking news.

"What?" Even Nick was as calm as he could not help but feel shaken.

"That's right, Taiping Cult is about to revenge." He emphasized it again and was still so calm.

"We're finally here. I wonder if we are ready, Lord Prime Minister?" The intelligence minister seemed a little impatient.

"Everything is done, only the east wind is not needed." Gomez said calmly, "The time is chosen so well. We control Jiayuguan and can hold up most of the forces of Li Wufeng in the northwest. The troops in the western and northern parts of the Tanghe people were trapped in the Jerok. The troops they rushed back would take at least three weeks to reach. Now the Guanxi area of ​​the Tanghe people is blank, and the troops in the Heshuo, Beiyuan and Yanyun areas are also extremely weak. Besides, such good things, I think the Puer people will not be indifferent."

"What does Prime Minister mean?" Miley and Nick both looked on Gomez's fat face.

"Be prepared actively and wait for the opportunity. I judge that the war should be ignited first in the Kansai region. At that time, we will strengthen the pressure on the two battlefields of Jiama and Fanlin, forcing the Tanghe people to be unable to withdraw reinforcements in the Gerok. When the Taiping Cult in these areas gain a foothold, we will let them go. Once they retreat, we will concentrate our troops to capture the entire Gerok in one fell swoop." Gomez's plan was extremely ruthless. He not only wanted to make the Taiping Cult a major problem that the empire could not quell, but also took this opportunity to annex Gerok in one fell swoop. It can be said that two kills kills two birds with one stone.

Miley and Nick's eyes lit up. Obviously, the Prime Minister's huge appetite was just right for the two of them. It seemed that the army led by them were about to be prepared again. They exchanged their eyes, and decades of friendship made the two of them have already cooperated well, and they could understand the other party's meaning without any extra words.

"As long as we take down the Delok, the door of the Tanghe people will be completely open to us. At that time, we only need to let the Taiping Cult and the Tanghe Empire fight to the death. Let's sit leisurely and watch the tiger fight and enjoy the benefits of the fisherman." Gomez's face had already appeared, and it was obvious that he had been conceiving this plan for a long time.

The three of them were speechless for a moment, and only the heavy breathing of a few people was heard. After a while, the intelligence minister broke the silence. "Prime Minister, it would be great if you said that you could follow the plan, but the following officials' opinions, the leaders of the Taiping Sect are not mediocre people. In addition, we have provided them with considerable help. Now their armed forces are developing quite fast. The Tanghe Empire's army in the west and north is already quite weak, and the local government is shaking. Once the Taiping Sect gains power, the subordinates are worried that we may not be able to control it by then. Wouldn't we become a wedding dress for others?"

Basten is worthy of being a veteran in intelligence. Not only is he very clear about intelligence, but he also has his own unique insights into analyzing the development of things. His words also touched the hearts of Miley and Nick on the side. Once the Taiping Cult becomes stronger, they will have become a climate in the empire and several counties in the western region. If a storm is set off, the empire's comrades in the north and west are very likely to collapse. If the Taiping Cult seizes the opportunity to establish a foothold, will it be a strong regime and army that will squeeze itself?

Slowly shook his head, Gomez said with confidence: "Don't underestimate the strength of the Tanghe Empire too much. Indeed, their rule in the north and west is quite corrupt. In these areas, it should be said that the Taiping Cult has the strength to replace the rule of the Tanghe Empire, but the centipede will die without being stiff. The Tanghe Empire still retains a very strong military force, especially their regular army."

After a pause, Gomez continued to say, "The reason why I spared no effort to support Taiping Cult, especially in the military, is that their military strength is not enough to fight against the Tanghe Empire. At present, some of the Tanghe people's army have not returned to their base, and some of the troops have been dragged by us to Gerok. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Taiping Cult also saw this, so he chose this opportunity. We want to help Taiping Cult fight temporarily and give them the strength to compete with the Tanghe Empire. Only in this way will they fight for both losses. Otherwise, no matter which side wins easily, it will not be a good thing for us, because we need some time to solve Gerok."

The three of them were convinced by Gomez's eloquence. While admiring them, they were also shocked by the prime minister's ambitions. They could all hear that behind the prime minister's words was the greed for the entire Tanghe Empire's territory, which surprised the three people who were also eager to conquer and expand externally. In their hearts, it was quite satisfactory to be able to successfully swallow the Principal of Telocchi in one bite. As for the Tanghe Empire, without the Gerok as a barrier, their good days were over, and they were not in a hurry to deal with them. Unexpectedly, the Prime Minister had already arranged all the subsequent goals.

"Of course, what Lord Basten said is not unreasonable, but after we control Derlock, we can free up our hands and try to keep them balanced in strength. In the end, no one should have an absolute advantage. In this way, it is in our interests. I think on this point, the Pooles and the Sisro people should be consistent with us, and in action, they should also be consistent with us." Gomez added.

"Prime Minister, do you think Li Wufeng will participate in this operation?" Duke Miley finally asked the question he had been worried about, "If he also sent troops into the Kansai area, how should we deal with it?"

"Duke Maili asked well, this is also a question that has always troubled me. Li Wufeng is too cunning. Once the Central Plains is in chaos, with his personality, he will not intervene. The question is how deep is he going to intervene? Should he gain some practical benefits, or take the opportunity to compete for the Central Plains? I analyzed this for a long time and felt that under the current situation, as long as the orthodox dynasty of the Tanghe Empire had not yet collapsed, he would not have entered the Central Plains in large quantities. After all, the Situ family has been in the footsteps for hundreds of years, and the people of the Central Plains, especially the upper class, still have certain feelings for the Situ family. Moreover, if they really enter the Central Plains, their strength is still weaker. We have occupied Jiayuguan, and the Jiama area is also in our hands, and they can also restrain his power at any time. Now the Xisluo people are stationed in the north of Yinchuan Prefecture, and they will also drag some of his troops. So I think once the war breaks out, he cannot control the situation in the entire Central Plains for the time being."

Obviously, Gomez also had deep considerations about Li Wufeng's actions and made arrangements in various aspects. In addition, he had some ideas that he had not expressed. Li Wufeng was like a tiger coming out of the gate. If he was not careful, he would cause serious harm to himself. He had to prepare more hands to deal with it.
