Looking at the other party deeply, Wufeng didn't seem to care much about the other party's words, "Duke, thank you for your reminder. I think my people will handle these things well. If there are still people who are ungrateful when our Western Xinjiang makes such a great sacrifice for the Principality of the Delok, then it can only be said that they want to challenge my patience. Do you think that Balins and Lanmon's unscrupulous activities have been instructed by your grand duke?"

After hesitating, Jacquelic pondered for a while before saying, "I'm not sure about this, but at least one thing can be clarified. Your Highness should have heard of this situation. As for whether he is letting go or something else, I dare not speak out."

"Well, it's very good." He raised his hand to signal the other party to taste tea. Wufeng nodded with satisfaction, "You can know these things. Please worry more about Diluck in this regard. Although I have already had a engagement with His Royal Highness, many people in your country seem to think that I was suspected of using the power to suppress others. I don't want to explain this matter too much. The Qing Dynasty will clear itself, but I will never tolerate those attempts to destroy the current situation that has finally come. If someone tries to use some behind-the-scenes means to achieve some goal, I think he is very wrong. At present, Xijiang and Diluck are in the same spirit. Facing the Kaman people, they will prosper together and lose together. There is no mistake. I would like to ask the adults to worry."

"Your Highness, please rest assured. I will try my best to restrain their actions. But sometimes I am a little overwhelmed, especially since they have the Imperial Guards and the Grand Duke as their backing, and they have to make some concessions in many things." Jacquelic looked at Wufeng with some reluctance, but his expectations were revealed: "I hope that your Highness can station certain troops in the city of Morlington to ensure the stability of the situation in the capital."

"I understand what you mean. Balins is too old. What do you think about that Red?" Nodded understandingly. Wufeng subconsciously stroked the stubble on his jaw. This feeling of being a little thorny seems to be very conducive to thinking and making some decisions.

After being happy in his heart, Jacquelic nodded repeatedly: "Your Highness is wise. Lord Red has always admired You Highness very much, and has outstanding abilities. He is also highly regarded by the Imperial Guards. He is indeed the best candidate for the commander of the Imperial Guards."

When the old man disappeared at the door of the room with a smile on his face, Qin Shuangying, who had been recording by the side, couldn't help but ask: "Brother Feng, is Lord Jacquelic a little alarmist? Although Lanmon and Balins have more contact, they do have some objections to our performance in Derlock, but they have no substantial dissatisfaction with us. I suspect that he is using us to attack each other."

"Well, it should be. But I do need a definite obedient Derlock now. Grand Duke Alan is still a little dissatisfied with his old age. I hinted that he could give way to Anne, but he didn't seem to understand what I mean. Ballins and Lanmon didn't cooperate very much. Since that's the case, I had to choose Jacquelik to help me control it. Although Ballins and Lanmon are unlikely to have other strange figures, they can defend themselves as much as possible. Moreover, at such critical moments, it is also annoying to make small moves. Jacquelik is a man with ambitions, but he is very smart. He knows his ability and his position. I admire a person like him. He uses his strength to determine his position, which is absolutely nothing. Although his technique is not so clever, we should not be demanding, no one is perfect."

Wufeng smiled and held Qin Shuangying in his arms, "Why didn't Brother Feng directly marry Princess Anne, and could also avenge the hearts of Grand Duke Alan and Ballins. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"

"Silly girl, I haven't married Situ Yutang yet. There is your sister An Qier in the imperial capital, so I have to think carefully." The loving hand was swam on the other party's plump and round buttocks. Wufeng teased: "Do you want them to get started earlier? You can fulfill your wish sooner?"

He twisted his body shyly in Wufeng's arms. Qin Shuangying, who was told about the matter, hung her head so hard that she almost pressed against her towering chest. He made Wufeng's heart suddenly become angry. He simply untied his embroidered brocade jacket and went into the other party's underwear to find the two lusty balls, and became happy.

Miley, who was in charge of Fanlin, had already felt the pressure from the south and the west. He had a bit of an ominous premonition. Since the fall of the horse, this premonition has become stronger and stronger. Li Wufeng was not a passive person to be beaten. Annihilation of an enemy cavalry regiment can certainly boost morale, but sending troops to plunder civilians was obviously a failure to anger Li Wufeng. Although this could provide some labor for the nobles in the empire, in terms of real value, it should be said that losses are greater than gains. Such huge pressure will force Li Wufeng, who was already interested in the east, to point his finger at his own side again. Information from the inside of Western Xinjiang has proved this point. Large-scale military mobilization within Western Xinjiang has begun to show signs, and at this time his premonition finally became a reality. Liujiatun was lost, three 10,000 teams of the Eighth Corps were destroyed, and Cherif died in battle.

This is the most misstep Nick has made in his life, and Miley commented so. But he could understand Nick's internal and external difficulties. His colleagues made such a decision due to various reasons. It should be said that the Prime Minister's interference was an important factor in the tragedy, but why wasn't the Prime Minister forced?

Nick now probably can only stand by Qinghe and wait for the rescue and the current situation to change. Miley has no hope for the so-called changes in the current situation. Whether it is the Luzons or Luobeis, bullying the weak and fearing the strong and taking advantage of the situation to rob, is their strength, but they have to face Li Wufeng head-on, but they slipped faster than anyone else. Therefore, they are all empty sustenances, and the only reliable one is the assistance of the Puer people. If they can use the Puer reinforcements to forcibly break through and defeat the Western Army of Liujiatun and reconnect Yulin and Qinghe, there is still something to do in this battle. Otherwise, whether it is Qinghe Yulin or Fanlin who is guarding himself, it would be a luxury to be able to return home empty-handed.

Negotiations with the Puer and Situ Tai were not something he was worried about. I believe that the Prime Minister knew the current situation as well. He forced himself to a dead end. He and Nick were tied firmly by him in a chariot. This battle will determine the fate of many people, the enemy and himself.

A sound of leather boots came from the adjutant's room outside. It should be that the adjutant was back from checking the ward. I don't know what bad news came back. Miley thought that he had led his troops for decades. No matter which corps under his command were in any situation, he was full of energy and fighting spirit when he fell into his hands. But this time, Miley really felt a depressed and decadent aura floating in the military camp. It was not in line with the martial arts of the Kaman soldiers, but this time, facing an unprecedentedly powerful enemy, Miley could only adopt a steadily and silly approach. Whether in terms of mobile cavalry or infantry, whether in terms of quantity or quality, the people of Western Xinjiang far surpassed their own side this time. If they wanted to show off again, they would be really despairing with their own life.

Judging from the strategies adopted by the Western Xinjiang Army, Li Wufeng intends to cut off the Nick's tens of thousands of troops in Qinghe, and then concentrate superior forces to encircle and annihilate them. However, with Nick's ability, Qinghe Prefecture may become a cemetery for the Western Xinjiang Army. Of course, if you develop according to such a situation, the final victory of the war should belong to the Xijiang people. After all, no matter how appropriate the tactical arrangement is, no matter how strong the leading generals are, they cannot offset the huge difference in strength. The only hope is that the Puer army can join forces with the 50,000 troops in Yulin to break the Liujiatun and break the siege of the Western Xinjiang Army in Qinghe. However, since Li Wufeng made this move, it is impossible to imagine this possibility. How to reverse this disadvantageous situation requires another surprise army.

However, what Miley is more worried about the issue of Fanlin he guards. He has 50,000 troops in his hand. He believes that he can stick to Fanlin, but what is the significance of such persistence? With the current situation in the country, the difficulty of logistics supply. Although the land of Qinghe Pinglu was exchanged for food support from the great nobles, this was only barely supported. Hundreds of thousands of troops of the empire were already pressed on the southern line. Once the northern barbarians joined in, I am afraid that the entire empire would be in a tight position. Only at this time Miley clearly realized that the overall strength of the Western Xinjiang under Li Wufeng had surpassed the empire in terms of overall strength, especially the economic power that determines military strength is far superior to the empire. In addition, the internal work is even more united than the struggle for power and profit in his own country. Fighting with such a giant, what kind of ending will this battle become? Miley is not sure about it.

Seeing that the enemy was already in the forefront, the nobles in the country were still fighting for their own interests, trying to kill the Prime Minister. What is the point of fighting this kind of war? A faint sadness surged from Miley's heart. He never thought that the Kaman military, which was once invincible, would have ended in a difficult situation of being reeling from the embarrassment of being reeled now, had a low morale, difficulty in logistics, and shortage of soldiers. Even the commander himself, actually considered his choice after the war was unfavorable, would there be a way to fight this kind of war?

Just as Miley and Nick were struggling for their respective futures, the Western Xinjiang Army had already crushed towards a fast-moving flywheel with a loud bang towards the three prefectures of Dirok and Beiyuan.

On January 30, 699, the First Legion, which had already moved to Anyuan, received an order to quickly advance northward into the Gerok, while the Third Legion and the Fifth Legion entered the Pinglu Mansion on a large scale a day ago. Pinglu Mansion, which once cost the Kaman army a heavy price, returned to the hands of Western Xinjiang without any effort. This ending made many people, including some generals of the Western Army, feel that it was an accident, but it turned out to be an extremely wise choice.
