The capital of the Sanjiang County of the Empire, Jiangchuan Prefecture City, the military and political governor's office was tightly guarded. A spacious conference hall gathered all important figures in the military and political circles of Sanjiang County. Of course, the head of the military and political governor Lin Guoxiong. On the lower side of his left is the commander of the Sanjiang First Corps, his younger brother Lin Guowei, his daughter Lin Yuexin, Jiangchuan Prefecture City, Lin Jiufang, Qindu Prefecture City, Wuzhi, Huayang Prefecture City, Kreko, Sanjiang

Park Jin, the Director of the Finance Department of the Military and Political Administration, and on the right are his eldest son, Lin Yunfei, the commander of the Second Corps of Sanjiang, Lin Yunxiang, Lin Dezhi, the guard of Anshun Prefecture, Zhao Yuancheng, and Yin Xiangying, the director of the Interior Department of the Military and Political Administration of the Sanjiang Prefecture. The huge formation shows the importance of this meeting. Everyone present appears to be quite serious. It can be seen that the topics to be discussed will also be very important.

The meeting was chaired by Lin Guoxiong's younger brother Lin Guowei, mainly to discuss the changes in the current situation and the direction of the Lin family's actions in the future. "Everyone, the second young master has just told the changes in the past few days. Especially after the empire's defeat in the Western Expedition, it unexpectedly won the defense battle in Qingyang Prefecture. Not only did it defeat Luo Beiren, but it also consolidated its rule in Qingyang Prefecture. Does this have an impact on our plan to move west? How much impact does it have? Should our plan be changed accordingly? I hope everyone will put forward their own opinions for reference by the Jieduian." Lin Guowei is different from his brother, short, but very capable, especially with a unique view on military affairs.

"I wonder how the negotiations with the Lang family are going?" The question raised is that Lin Dezhi, the city guard of Anshun Prefecture, is a typical government official and has little courage. In fact, he has no relatives with the Lin family, but his surname is Lin. Outsiders think that he is a family with the Lin family, but he is very loyal to the Lin family. He has always opposed the Lin family's plan to move westward, because once the Lin family's army advances westward, his Anshun Prefecture will be most likely to be subject to the imperial army and Tiannan.

The attacks of the Lang family, and the terrain of Anshun Prefecture, Qindu and Huayang Prefecture are also very different. They are flat and also the grain base of Sanjiang County. They are easy to attack and difficult to defend. When the war is together, no matter whether they win or lose, the development and construction over the years will be lost. Although the Lin family is stationed with three divisions of the Sanjiang First Legion guarding them, he is still worried. Even Lin Guoxiong cannot convince him. He is not relieved until he told him about the negotiations with the Lang family.

"This has made some progress, but the negotiator of the Lang family has never made a clear reply, but only asked us to keep restrained. He is probably waiting for Lang Yongquan's final decision." Lin Yunxiang said a little hesitant-

"Yuexin, do you have any opinions on the plan to move west last time?" Lin Guowei stared at the third lady, known as the "Jade Fox". He has always admired his niece very much, thinking that in some aspects, he even surpassed his elder brother Lin Guoxiong, and was much better than her two brothers-

Seeing the second uncle pointing his spearhead at him, Lin Yuexin brushed his hair with his fingers. This little move was seen by the men present, and almost at the same time, "Born of beauty, I see You Lian-

"I think our plan to move westward at the moment may have to be temporarily suspended." A gentle sentence seemed to be as heavy as a thousand pounds to the hearts of everyone present--

"What? What did you say? Third sister, how much energy we have spent, how much work we have done, how much risk we have taken, and how much preparation we have taken, so why should we delay?" The first person jumped was Lin Yunfei, his face turned red. This time he seized the opportunity and finally got the position of commander of the Second Legion. He wanted to make several great achievements in the battle of advancing west, and also blocked the mouths of those who did not accept him. Unexpectedly, he would fail, and of course he could not accept it-

"Yes, the opportunity must not be missed, the time will not come again. I missed this opportunity. When the empire recovers its vitality, it will be difficult to find such an opportunity in the future." Lin Yunxiang also agreed with Brother Nai's opinion-

"Can you ask the third lady to tell me the reason?" Huayang Prefecture City Guard Kreko is a military general and Lin Guoxiong's confidant. He has always supported the Westward Advance, but he has always admired Lin Yuexin's wisdom, so he also wanted to know why the implementation of the Westward Advance Plan should be suspended. In his opinion, the plan is quite perfect. Even if the Lang family can't agree, he has arranged another chess piece as a backup, which can fully achieve the expected goal-

"Yuexin, let me tell you what you think. Everyone wants to listen to your opinions. If you want to suspend the plan, you have to give a convincing reason." Lin Guoxiong also spoke. He was inclined to continue to implement the westward plan. After all, this opportunity was really rare. The strength of the Western Military Region of the Empire was greatly reduced. The army of the Northern Military Region was unable to withstand the situation of the Duchy of Delok and the war on the northern border. Even the City Guards that defended the capital were drawn to only one of the first divisions left. As for the Imperial Guards, they would never be redirected from the capital. They could be ignored. Although the Southern Military Region of the Empire to the east had two armies of more than corps, in order to prevent the Maqikhan Kingdom, the number one enemy in the south of the Empire, the Empire would rather take out the defense.

The city guards in the capital did not dare to use the soldiers and soldiers of the southern military region at will. It is conceivable that his vigilance towards the Maqikhanate was good. The Lang family in the southeast was good enough to reach a close negotiation, but if they couldn't agree, he had already prepared a "big gift" for him, which was enough for him to "enjoy" for a while. The five prefectures of Guanxi County were only stationed by the regular army of the Independent Division of the Western Military Region, and the others were just local guards with extremely poor combat effectiveness. I was absolutely sure that I would wipe out the entire Guanxi County within two months without other accidents. I am in my fifties, and if I don't seize the opportunity, I would really have no chance. However, I, who was usually very confident, had lost confidence in my daughter's suffocational call, and I couldn't figure out what was wrong.

Seeing that his father also spoke, Lin Yuexin calmly said his reason: "I have two reasons, but only one of them is enough to make us think twice before we act."—

Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on themselves, it was obvious that they were eager to find a way to know what his two reasons were, and she continued, "Because the empire won the Qingyang defense battle, in fact, the threat from Luobei people in the northwest region was completely eliminated. At least in a short time, the elite troops of the three divisions of Taixuan Mansion were freed up to pose a certain threat to the Kaman Empire army stationed in the Duchy of Delok, which was attempted to move south. Everyone knows that the three security divisions of Taixuan Mansion were nominally local security divisions, but their combat effectiveness and commander's ability are obvious to all. I believe the Kaman people are also very clear. If you want to move south, you must consider your own retreat. In addition, winter will soon begin, and the winter in the north will not go south to us,

There are many constraints on the war. I guess the Kamans will soon adopt the policy of shrinking defense, and the pressure on the Derroks and the Empire will be greatly reduced. The two divisions of the Imperial City Guard Legion are already preparing for combat, and they are probably about to set off. They were originally preparing to deal with Luo Bei people, but now they are empty. In addition, the regular army of a multi-legion empire with no worries in the Western Military Region, how sure is our troops advancing west? I see everyone knows it." Just one reason has caused almost everyone to cut off the idea of ​​advancing west. Almost everyone is asking why they didn't consider these things just now, but it seems that there is no big connection. After a comprehensive analysis by Lin Yuexin, the plan that everyone feels confident can be overturned-

"The second reason, I don't know if you have noticed it. The major newspapers of the empire's day before yesterday published the news that the Empire's Deputy Foreign Minister Weipan visited the Makikhanate and was solemnly welcomed." Seeing that everyone present, except for their father, frowned, all looked confused, Lin Yuexin couldn't help but sigh softly. Although these people had no problem with loyalty, they lacked the ability to look at the overall situation in terms of talent, let alone come up with good corresponding measures.

Seeing everyone's confused look, Lin Yuexin had to patiently explain: "The Empire and the Maqikhanate have always been inconsistent. In this sensitive period, they actually sent Weipan to visit and were warmly welcomed. This must have been invited by the Maqikhanate. This intentionally or unintentionally conveyed a message to us. What kind of transactions the Empire and the Maqikhanate may be. If the two sides reach a compromise, the consequences can be imagined. The more than 200,000 troops in the Southern Military Region of the Empire are not vegetarians." Everyone here, including Lin Guoxiong, was terrified. The basis for the establishment of the Westward Advance Plan was to rule out the possibility of intervention of the Southern Military Region of the Empire. If it was true as Lin Yuexin said, the current situation in Sanjiang County was very dangerous, so how could there be any other plan to go westward.

"But the Maqi Khanate has always hated the empire very much. Their Khan Bixili is even more determined to advance into the Central Plains. How could he suddenly agree to reconcile with the empire?" Seeing that everyone was shocked by his sister's words, Lin Yunfei was a little dissatisfied-

"Everything is changing, not to mention that there are only eternal interests between countries, no eternal enemies or friends. What kind of person is Lei Juetian next to Bi Xili? How could he not understand this truth?" Lin Yuexin's heavy answer-

"Third Miss, aren't our current situation very dangerous?" Lin Dezhi was already sweating in his head-

"Uncle Lin doesn't have to be too nervous. This is just my personal inference. What's going on is still to be confirmed. What's more, the gap between the two countries cannot be completely eliminated in one or two days, and the empire will not be assured to believe in the Maqikhans completely. However, there will definitely be some changes in the relationship between the two countries. This is certain, but this is enough to arouse our high vigilance." Lin Yuexin comforted the nervous Lin Dezhi, who said-

"What do you think Yuexin should deal with it now?" Lin Guoxiong also sighed. It seemed that this painstakingly prepared plan to move west was only dead in the womb-
