Everyone in the Duhu Mansion was very busy.
Including Xie Chan.
In the past few days, she had been wearing the military uniform of a female general that Liu Zheng had personally designed for her. She looked incomparable wherever she went.
"Thank you General!"
"I've met General Xie!"
"Thank you, General. This military supply has been delivered today. Do you think it is?"
to be honest.
Xie Chan never thought about becoming a general since she was a child. Originally, she just wanted to get close to Liu Zheng, but she didn't expect that she would be very anxious next...
Yulin Army.
It will be the most elite internal guard force of the Western Region Protectorate, the appointment of officials at all levels, military supplies reserves, the distribution of weapons and equipment - as well as the familiarity and understanding of the weapons and equipment of the Yinzhou Army.
The more you understand.
The more frightened she became...
The weapons of this Yinzhou Army are too powerful, right? What kind of spears, what kind of swords, what kind of wolf swords... there are all kinds of them, and more importantly, they are all made of fine steel?
Stainless steel!
How much money does this cost?
There is not much fine steel in the entire Dawan Kingdom. I heard that the fine steel was bought from the Longyan Dynasty at a high price. Who would have thought that this Yinzhou, from top to bottom, armed to teeth, is all made of fine steel!
Not only that.
The strict military discipline of the Yinzhou Army also shocked Xie Chan.
Strict hierarchy, strict orders and prohibitions.
The military style was tough and alcohol was prohibited during wartime.
Thinking back to the troops of Dayuan Kingdom... Xie Chan was a little confused. The Yanqi army, the Qiuci army, and the elite army were all scheming and deceiving each other. They were ineffective in fighting and tried all kinds of ways to gain military merit. They are dressed in flashy clothes, but their combat effectiveness is extremely low. Not only that, the military style is even more lazy, arrogant and lewd, and they bully the people.
this……
She finally understood why Yan Qi was lost as soon as the Yinzhou Army came.
Can you beat this?
There was even a feeling of powerlessness in her heart. Could the gap between the two be eliminated by assassinating Liu Zheng by herself?
She had just finished handling the military affairs when Xiao Tao, also wearing a military uniform, came over with a solemn expression and whispered: "Miss, I heard that Liu Zhizhou is going back to Yinzhou!"
"What?"
A flash of light flashed in Xie Chan's eyes: "When are you leaving?"
"tomorrow!"
She nodded and said: "We can't wait any longer, I'll stab you tomorrow!"
"yes!"
Xie Chan knew that with the current situation in the Western Region, once Liu Zheng was allowed to return to the Longyan Dynasty, the Dawan Kingdom would really have no chance again.
…
To return to Yinzhou from Cheshi, we must pass through Dunhuang and Liangzhou.
If we go back via Loulan, we will take a long detour.
So Liu Zheng decided to go directly to Dunhuang. Since the South-to-North Water Diversion Project and the excavation of the Grand Canal cannot escape Dunhuang, we must find a way to get it! There was no need for him to avoid suspicion.
Western Region Construction Corps.
Now, there are already 350,000 people!
In addition to the 150,000 prisoners, 50,000 craftsmen, and the 100,000 slaves rewarded by the emperor, the rest are the 50,000 Yinzhou soldiers who voluntarily stayed in the Western Regions to develop - after all, the treatment is really very generous. Who wouldn’t want to directly achieve financial freedom in this year?
so.
This time, there were only 90,000 Yinzhou soldiers left who followed Liu Zheng and planned to return to Yinzhou.
Successfully rebuilding the Western Region Protectorate was a triumphant return.
Liu Zheng has been debating the specific work plan, system, etc. of the Western Region Construction Corps with Ling Chen for nearly a month. Today, the Western Region Construction Corps, with the excavation of the Grand Canal's division, has gradually taken shape and is operating normally.
"Sima, the Western Region will be left to you!"
In the evening, Liu Zheng hosted a banquet for the left-behind officials of the Western Region Protectorate, and toasted them with glasses of wine.
Ling Chen had won Liu Zheng's trust and had long since sworn to be loyal to Liu Zheng. When he heard these words, he was still moved to tears: "Don't worry, young master, when you come back, the Western Region will be a paradise!"
"good!"
Everyone also cheered.
Xie Chan has been in a complicated mood tonight and has been looking at Liu Zheng.
She feels...
I feel a little out of place with the cheerful atmosphere tonight. What's even more difficult to understand is that she actually felt lost and depressed because of this incompatibility?
At this banquet, everyone was in high spirits, looking like they were going to make great plans, and they were full of confidence to change the barren and desolate situation in the Western Region... But what about her?
But he wanted to assassinate Liu Zheng!
She unexpectedly found that she was also infected by these people's emotions.
She even wanted to join in...
Can it really change the Western Region?
"Thank you General, thank you General?"
At this moment, several shouts disrupted Xie Chan's thoughts.
She woke up with a start and saw Liu Zheng standing in front of her with a smile on his face, holding a wine glass. She couldn't help but let out a sigh, and stood up in a hurry: "Mr....Mr...."
Liu Zheng laughed: "The Yulin Army is a key organization of the Western Region Construction Corps. Whether the Western Region Construction Corps can be stable internally depends on General Xie!"
Xie Chan was confused and just wanted to speak.
Unexpectedly, Liu Zheng slowly tilted his body over. Because the distance was too close, Xie Chan's face turned red. But she knew that Liu Zheng was not the kind of person like Meng Lang, so she endured her blush and listened to Liu Zheng's whisper.
"Thank you, General..."
"In the future, Ling Chen will be in charge of government affairs in the Protectorate, and General Xie will be in charge of military affairs..."
He deliberately glanced at the high-spirited Ling Chen over there, and said cautiously: "General Xie, that Ling Chen is unruly, extreme and sharp. The stability of the Construction Corps still depends on you. General Xie should know that the Construction Corps, After all, military affairs are the main focus..."
"What?"
Xie Chan's delicate body trembled, and her heart suddenly became numb.
What does it mean?
Did he let himself supervise or contain Ling Chen?
But……
wrong……
Why does he trust himself so much?
wrong!
She is here to assassinate him!
Hello!
Don't do this!
But Liu Zheng continued to speak, and the heat he breathed made Xie Chan feel extremely itchy: "General Xie, this matter is a top priority. It is related to the country of the Protectorate and the well-being of the people. Liu Zheng is here. First of all, Thanks!"
After saying this, he raised the glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.
This scene was something Xie Chan could not have imagined...
"This, this, this..."
Xie Chan looked confused.
brother!
I'm here to assassinate you!
Why do you trust me so much!
Leave all the military affairs of the entire legion to me?
Why!
I am the enemy!
But seeing the sincere look on Liu Zheng's face, she opened her mouth but hesitated, and finally drank a glass of wine.
Damn guy!
She thought of the knife she had hidden in her shoe.
This makes her...
How dare you do it!
Try again tomorrow!
tomorrow……
…
The next day.
Liu Zheng and his party, with 90,000 Yinzhou troops, were sent off by the remaining officials of the Western Region Protectorate, flags fluttered, and started on the road.
In the carriage.
Qingyang Shuo laughed loudly: "Young master's move is definitely a wonderful one. Miss Rao Naxie is so thoughtful that she never imagined that this was a trap set by the master!"
Liu Zheng also laughed and said: "Xie Chan... I heard that Xie Xuan has a princess who has been favored since childhood. I didn't expect that she would sneak into Yanqi."
Qingyang Shuo smiled and said: "Don't worry, young master, we have already made arrangements for Feng Zhen. If a mere woman is really willing to integrate into the construction corps, then that's all. If she has even the slightest intention of disloyalty, she will definitely die!"
"good!"
Liu Zheng nodded.
When he first guessed Xie Chan's identity, he was surprised and even wanted to kill her. But on the one hand, Xie Chan's appearance was too good for his liking... On the other hand, Liu Zheng felt that killing a mere woman would be a huge disgrace. And Xie Chan’s identity is so sensitive.
Then why don't you play with her?
Playing with fire?
Instigate her to rebel!
In fact, she had several opportunities to assassinate herself when she infiltrated Yanqi. Of course, the assassination may not be successful because Pei Qianyun has been following Liu Zheng, but it is still possible to cause damage.
But she didn't.
Liu Zheng wondered why.
Could it be that she was also hesitating?
So, he simply came up with the last trick and gave her enough high status and trust, but also let Ling Chen and Feng Zhen monitor her together!
Look at what tricks she is going to play.
If they can successfully instigate rebellion, the blow to Dayuan will undoubtedly be severe. When the time comes to conquer, you will have a few more chips.
"Son, oh, oh, come on, let me help you find a good one!"
At this time, the increasingly bloated Liu Dahao ran onto the carriage excitedly, holding the "Roster of Beauties" in his hand. As soon as he got on, the whole carriage shook violently.
Qingyang Shuo held back his laughter.
Liu Zheng rolled his eyes.
here we go again!
