After the "summit meeting" ended, the other four people followed Welling. They felt that the ground in the hall was a little soft, their steps were a little wobbly, and they felt unrealistic.
Just like that, you obtained detailed information through pretense and deception?
Still accompanied by the guard, Li Lingyou walked out of the tribal settlement in the mountain and faced the sunshine and the cold wind in the valley. Li Lingyou felt a little like he was in a dream:
"I never thought that I would become a pangolin as an imperial warlock and participate in business negotiations on behalf of the empire."
Several people laughed dumbly, and Wei Ling shook his head:
"No, I am serious. After I return to Kerala, I will go see my colleagues in the Sergeant Observation Agency and hope that they can make special suggestions.
Don’t you think what I said is actually what the empire should do? It has very positive significance for our understanding and control of this area.
Isn’t the purpose behind demilitarization not to enable better penetration after the threat is removed? "
Xie Wuyi nodded in agreement with Wei Ling's view:
"Yes, Welling is right. Our structure is not enough. This is what we should do."
Li Lingyou and Yang Xiaohe were both a little ashamed:
"We really look at Welling's move with a playful attitude."
"It doesn't matter, according to Mei Poba's information package, we finally have relatively complete information on the remnant tribes in this area.
Next, it’s time for us to face Meiboba and his old enemies. "
"According to the information, the Putu tribe is located downstream of this river, further northwest, only a few hundred kilometers away. Are we going there now?"
Wei Ling nodded:
"Yes, I think we should go now and get it done in one go."
The other four people had no objections, so they bid farewell to the two guards and boarded the vehicle.
The "Blue Bird" travels along the valley, just above the river, and downstream.
While controlling the vehicle, Shou Gong participated in the planning discussions of Wei Ling and others.
"According to the information, this Putu tribe is far more numerous than the Hana people, and its military readiness far exceeds that of the surrounding remnant tribes.
The entire tribe is warlike, cruel, and predatory. So, we have to consider whether it is most appropriate to go there as a trader in the West Sea. "
Welling was a little worried.
"Yes, Cyril's information shows that the source of supplies for this remnant tribe has always been relatively mysterious. According to Mepoba, it is more like a gathering of bandits. Then robbery may be one of the means for the other party to survive. .”
Li Lingyou had this guess.
"You mean that when we walk in, we are like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth, and we may not be able to come out intact?"
Yang Xiaohe raised his eyebrows.
"This possibility cannot be ruled out. Therefore, we must be mentally prepared for combat."
Shou Gong also expressed his views:
“I think, since Meipoba’s information shows that this Putu tribe has very little development in planting, and animal husbandry is still the main industry.
For a tribe that mainly focuses on traditional animal husbandry, looking at its national nature and cultural traditions, it is possible to live by water and grass, worship the strong, appreciate the wolf nature, and occasionally become a bandit, as Shibaro said. "
Welling always looks at things from a slightly different perspective:
“However, we can also look at it from another perspective. The state of Kerala did not and does not dispatch military and police forces to eradicate and eradicate this tribe. This can only mean one thing.
That is, the behavior of this remnant tribe has not exceeded the bottom line agreed upon by all remnant tribes in this large area. Otherwise, they will not be able to survive. "
Li Lingyou expanded Wei Ling's idea:
"It makes sense! Before Kara State was demilitarized, the Changhe Legion still had a certain degree of combat effectiveness. At that time, the Federation's overall deterrence was also there. So, this tribe did not dare to provoke, which shows that they understand their own strength and upper limit.
Now that the Federation has been defeated, the Long River Legion has dissipated, and most of the police force is the sergeants of the remaining Long River Legion. This means that Kara State's control over this large area has been weakened. Even if this tribe seems to be strong and arrogant on the surface, but according to common sense He said that he would not dare to do too much to people with a background from Kerala and the Empire. "
Welling nodded:
"Well, I've thought about it, and I'd better appear as Xihai Trading. Only in this way will there be no problem with the legitimacy of our identity.
There is a troublesome question. The leader of the other party is named Emir on his face. How can we lead the topic to whether the other party is Biriyanggu, or even to kidnapping children?
Also, how to verify that the other party is cooperating with some force in the empire? Murong Langgan is no longer there... This is the real problem. "
Wei Ling felt that he would not be able to think of anything for a while, and the other four people also felt a headache.
After a moment, Welling reluctantly threw out a message:
"When there is really no other way, I can only hint to the other party that Xihai Metal Trading is also engaged in selling and smuggling arms secretly. There are many opportunities for us to cooperate.
I even want to buy a group of teenage Federation girls, the most beautiful ones, just because the nobles from the empire’s powerful families have this demand..."
Immediately, Welling saw the four people who were stunned.
"If the Valve Master finds out, he will definitely beat me to death..."
Li Lingyou wailed.
Xie Wuyi and Shou Gong covered their mouths and laughed.
Yang Xiaohe was thoughtful:
"Hey, Shishiro, if we accidentally find out that the other party is secretly cooperating with Li Clan, what should we do?"
Li Lingyou jumped up immediately:
"Stupid! How is it possible? What about the existence of Murong Langgan? There is a high probability that he is Gusu Murong!"
Yang Xiaohe still refused to spare Li Lingyou:
"No, no, I mean, of course Li Clan doesn't like the human flesh business, but the arms business."
Li Lingyou also understood at this time that Yang Xiaohe was deliberately making him angry. He rolled his eyes and retorted forcefully:
"Hey, the probability of the Yang clan is greater. You know, the Taiwei in charge of the empire's military and armaments is named Wang, and Wang and Yang have always advanced and retreated together.
Hehe, maybe Yang Clan's younger brother is doing these dirty work. Gusu Murong, isn't that a follower of the royal family? "
Li Lingyou's counterattack was quite sharp.
Yang Xiaohe suddenly became speechless.
Suddenly, all five of them felt that the atmosphere was a little heavy.
After a moment, Yang Xiaohe threw out a serious message:
"A man must have a clear conscience when he is in heaven and earth. If something really goes wrong, I think that Xiao Duhuo could do something for a man to leave the family. Could it be that I, Yang Xiaohe, will do it because of the righteousness of the empire? And just pretending? Will I lose to him?!"
The eyes of the four people were filled with brilliance, and they all gave Yang Xiaohe thumbs up.
Wei Ling smiled slightly:
"You think too much about these things. Even if something unexpected happens, our team leader will wipe our ass."
Several people suddenly thought that Qinghui had ordered at that time to pay attention to the principle of confidentiality. If there was any situation, they could not handle it without authorization, and they could not report it through other channels. They had to go through his clearance.
Li Lingyou, Yang Xiaohe and Xie Wuyi all felt numb immediately.
This is the wisdom warlock.
The depth of their thinking is far greater than that of ordinary warlocks.
While chatting and discussing, the vehicle had approached the area specified in the message.
It is a tributary of this big river, flowing in from the endless mountains on the west side.
The vehicle entered the top of the tributary lightly and flew towards the heights.
After a while, a huge tribal settlement appeared on the mountain grassland surrounded by countless mountains.
It was early spring, the snow had not yet melted, and the alpine meadows were still covered with thick or thin snow.
On the periphery of that huge settlement, you can also see large livestock sheds dotted here and there.
Only these warm greenhouses can allow livestock to survive the cold winter smoothly.
In the middle of the stronghold, there are some large buildings, tall, simple and solemn, mostly made of huge boulders in the dark mountains.
On the periphery of the stronghold, there are many medium and large defense facilities, such as bunkers, fortresses, air defense strongholds, etc.
Suddenly, the gecko's eyes narrowed and he sent a message:
"There are defense facilities scanning, wait a minute, let me analyze the composition of their defense system... Their system is locked on us!"
The vehicle decelerated instantly and became suspended in the air.
"Unfortunately, the opponent has systematic defense facilities!
We were not able to enter a deserted land like we did in the Hana tribe. This was what we expected. "
Wei Ling smiled indifferently.
"Defense, are there any results? Is the opponent's defense system based on empire or federal equipment?"
“It’s based on the federal defense system.
To be precise, it used twelve sets of Iron Curtain systems and nine sets of Prism systems to build a defense, shielding, and information support system similar to that of a large federal base! "
"Ah, how did you know it so accurately?"
Yang Xiaohe was a little crazy.
He felt that he was no stranger to vehicles and had experienced basic military service, so he should have at least some common sense.
However, it is incredible to be able to analyze the type and quantity of the opponent's defense equipment just through the opponent's scanning information and locking mechanism data.
"The gecko has this ability!"
Li Lingyou and Wei Ling responded to Xiao Yang at the same time.
"The other party typed a clear message and inquired about his identity and purpose of visit!"
"Just contact Imperial West Sea Metal Trading directly to discuss business contacts."
After a while, the gecko threw out a message:
"The other party approved it and designated the parking location."
"It's a bit strange. The other party can clearly use video mapping, so that we can see each other's defense personnel, but they actually use such an old-fashioned way to communicate."
Welling was a little confused.
There was no time for a few people to delay. Under the control of the guard, the vehicle landed smoothly on a field in the middle of this large settlement.
With the eyesight of Welling and others, they could see several anti-aircraft cannons through the portholes, and the muzzles of the guns followed the movement of the vehicles.
In order not to cause an immediate conflict, and because four of the five people were warlocks, it didn't matter whether they were armed or not. Therefore, the garrison did not carry any firearms except for the sheathed sword on its back.
At Welling's signal, the gecko set the Blue Bird vehicle to information support status.
Even if several people are scattered in the tribe, they can still communicate with each other through the vehicle as the information center.
As soon as I took off my gear, a biting cold wind blew over me.
