"Brother Wenna, these people in the northwest follow suit. Let's see how Li Wufeng is doing. Now we can only endure. At least before we take down the Hanzhong Prefecture City, we must endure. We cannot give the Northwest people the excuse of creating trouble. Now Lord Lang has sent special envoys to the Northwest. I guess He and Li Wufeng can reach a temporary agreement. As long as they do not interfere, we are willing to make any concessions. So at this time, we cannot give people a handle." Xie Changyang thought to himself, "As long as the Northwest people do not express their intention to war for us for a day, we must try to avoid war, and of course we also need to prepare for war as much as possible."

"Well, sir, don't worry, Wen Na knows the importance. However, according to the information we have at present, although the Northwest Army in Tianshui has increased two divisions, the Northwest Army in Sishui Mountain in the north of Hanzhong and Jianmen Pass in the east have not increased, and they still only maintained the number of about one regiment. On the surface, it seems that the Northwest people are not hostile, but it is difficult for Li Wufeng to figure it out. It cannot be presumed by common sense. None of us can be sure what he is trying to do." To be honest, Wen Na is not sure.

"Well, it's enough to survive this period of time. The Lujiang battlefield has made significant progress. Cuiping Pass has been conquered. The main obstacles that block our way have been cleared. Lujiang is just around the corner." Xie Changyang avoided the heavy price he paid in the battle of Cuiping Pass. "After Lujiang, we can take the initiative in the situation in Hanzhong."

"The spring in Luoyang is good, and the talented man in Luoyang is old. Liu'an Wei Wangdi is confused at this time. Peach blossoms are in spring, and mandarin ducks on the water are rosy. I hate the remnant of the remaining sunshine, remembering you and you don't know." Wandering in the tree-lined path of the ancient temple of Xilin, the young man in blue shirt showed a look of longing on his face, and he was singing casually.

"The adults seemed to be homesick. I wonder who this lord is?" Two people walked from a distance, and one on the left smiled and said. Li Wufeng is from Zhongzhou, the imperial capital, and Zhongzhou is also known as Luoyang and Luocheng. He was named after the Luo River injected into the Fan River.

"Haha, I can't afford to be a talented man in front of you, but I'm just feeling it." Wu Feng replied with a smile, "How are you interested in visiting this Xilin Ancient Temple?"

"The yellow leaves cover the ground, and the blue sky is as clear as the sky. How can such beautiful scenery be enjoyed exclusively by the adults? I heard that the adults came to this ancient Xilin Temple alone to seek the horizon, so Zong Xi and Wang Liao came to be a companion with the adults." Wang Zong Xi and Wang Liao followed Wufeng's stroll.

"Sir, I'm in a good mood, but the scenery of Xilin Ancient Temple is indeed good, no wonder the adults linger." Wang Liao also continued.

"Brother Wang Liao, you may not be correct. Maybe you like this and this scene and can recall an unforgettable period. When you see things and think of others, you can't cut them down, and you can't handle them. The lovesickness is the most bitter." Wang Zongxi smiled slightly and joked about his boss. Wang Zongxi has always been wild and unruly, especially in private occasions, which is quite unrestrained, which is quite unfair to Wufeng's appetite.

Wufeng couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. It seemed that the two of them also knew about the emotional entanglement between him and Lin Yuexin. He deliberately teased him, but he was not bothered. Anyway, he had already done so he let them say it.

"You two are so elegant and come to accompany me for a walk, right? If you want to talk about business, you'd better wait until I return to the government office. Now I don't have the heart to accompany you both." Wufeng set up a defense first.

"Sir, then let's just talk about private matters. Miss Lin may be very close to you, but due to the limitation of her identity, it is rare to reconcile. It is better to break the love thread of the wisdom sword than to break it early." Wang Liao was also very obedient and immediately moved the conversation aside.

"Okay, okay, this is my private matter. I think I will deal with it myself, so you and the two of you don't have to worry about it." Wufeng saw that the situation was not good, so he stopped.

"But sir, your private affairs are official affairs, which have affected the future development direction of our northwest. If we hadn't made up our minds early, it might have missed more opportunities." Wang Liao's tone also became solemn.

Seeing Wufeng silent, Wang Zongxi intends to ease the atmosphere and quickly turns aside: "Sir, I heard that Luo Beiren has refused to borrow from Northwest Bank and instead borrow from Hansen Alliance United Bank?"

"Well, yes, it seems that it's not just that we have taken a fancy to Luo Beiren, but the Hansen Alliance seems to be interested in Luo Beiren. I don't know what my classmate has done in the Western Continent, how could this happen?" Wu Feng shook his head, probably wondering about this.

"This matter seems to have little impact on us at the moment, but in the long run, it will inevitably weaken our influence in the Luobei high-level. As for why the Hansen Alliance suddenly became so enthusiastic, I wonder if they also think that supporting Luobeiren and the Chidi people against Taiwan is a huge temptation to restrain the Chidi people? Of course, from a distance, will the Hansen Alliance intentionally weaken our control and influence over Luobeiren and let them play a leading role, which is also very likely." Wang Zongxi probably studied this matter carefully, so he analyzed it so delicately.

"But we are unable to respond appropriately for a while. On the surface, Viscount Montcati also served as the plenipotentiary of the Hansen Alliance in Barona City. What role did this person play in this matter?" Wang Liao also interrupted.

"Wait until Su Qin comes back, you can discuss it well. It is best to contact Luo Beiren and try to maintain our influence. In addition, in the eastern territory of Wulan Jiyuan, choose some people who have interests in us, find ways to get them into Luo Beiren's power level and increase our influence in their upper class as much as possible. What the Hansen Alliance can do can do is we do. Luo Beiren rejected our loan, that's fine, we can use money to buy and do more things, why not do it?" Wufeng's expression was plain, but his words were very vicious, "As long as they get on the ship, it will not be so easy to withdraw. With these handles, I am not afraid that they will not submit!"

Wang Liao and Wang Zongxi nodded and said, "This kind of money purchase is the simplest and most commonly used method in the diplomatic world, especially for those barbarians, tribes or small countries that lack supervision mechanisms, which are even more effective and the effect is immediate."

"Sir, the special envoy of the Lang family is waiting for the reception in the inn. Zong Xilai and I also want to hear your opinion." Wang Liao finally expressed the true purpose of this.

The atmosphere became a little stiff again. Wufeng lowered his head and just walked slowly on the path, but he didn't want to say a word. The two kings also had to follow him patiently, follow him step by step, waiting for the Jiedushi who dominated the northwest to make a decision.

After walking for more than 200 meters, Wufeng slowly opened his mouth and said, "What are the conditions for Lang Yongquan to propose that we do not intervene in the war in Hanzhong?"

"Their condition was that as long as we do not interfere with their war in Hanzhong, our interests in Hanzhong remained the same, and the four towns were still controlled by us. In addition, he also said that no troops could be stationed in Bashan and Xikang to show the sincerity of both sides." Wang Zongxi continued, "This is the preliminary condition proposed by the other party when his subordinates exchanged views with the other party in private."

"Hmph? That's that simple? I think the Lang family is perfunctory. According to the news I just got, the Lang family has launched an attack from Bashan to Lujiang. I guess there is no more military force in Bashan. And I judge that the Lang family will not wait for our reply to start a war in Hanzhong. They will take action first and then report, and we can't help it." Wufeng exhaled a long breath and said as if he was losing it, "We all underestimated Lang Yongquan's determination and courage. I didn't expect to be so bold. I doubt whether he had reached some kind of tacit understanding with the Maqikhans?"

"Sir, do you think this is serious?" The two kings looked at each other and obviously did not expect that the Lang family had a complete solution. If this was true, Lujiang would be in danger and Hanzhong would be in danger.

"I just received an urgent report from the front line. I wanted to think about it alone and inform you that since you two are here, it's fine, so I can discuss countermeasures." Wufeng was not too surprised. Not everything could be expected by himself. Then wouldn't he become a god? Although the Lang family's actions were abrupt, they could also follow the lines. Without the support from the Maqi Khan in the east, the Lang family would not be so arrogant. Now it depends on whether the Lin family can withstand the Lang family's offensive in Lujiang, but Wufeng is not optimistic about the Lin family at all. Even if Lin Guowei was in Lujiang, he didn't know that Lin Guowei had quietly stepped down and returned to Sanjiang a few days ago, otherwise he could make a more accurate judgment.

"The Lang family is obviously determined to win this way, and Lujiang is afraid that it will change hands soon. As for Hanzhong, the north and west sides are under our control, and the Lang family will definitely worry about us, but our troops in Tianshui and Xikang have made necessary preparations for combat? Otherwise, once the Lang family is well prepared, they can concentrate their troops to attack Hanzhong in a short time and take Hanzhong before we react! And the envoy from the Lang family this time is just a cover, the purpose is to delay and paralyze us!" Wang Liao became more worried and angry the more he thought about it.

"It's not that simple. The Lang family has the advantage, but the Lin family may not have no power to fight back. It depends on the ability of the commanders of both sides. If it were Lin Guowei, I think the Lang family might not be able to succeed easily, but if it was someone else, it would be hard to say." Wufeng shook his head. Without detailed and accurate information, he could not make a judgment.
