In November of the 123rd year of the Divine Enlightenment, a special high-level meeting was held within the Li clan.
The meeting was attended by the clan leader Li Yuanming, senior officials Li Jubai and Li Daji, as well as a large number of first-level guests and elders of the clan.
As a first-level guest of the Li clan, Wei Ling participated in the meeting.
The main topic of the meeting was to discuss the assistance to the Murong family next year.
The final decision was to dispatch four medium-sized vehicles and form three teams, left, middle and right, to assist the Murong clan in the name of the clan and participate in their battle to found the country.
The middle team is mainly composed of disciples of Wei Ling's Lingxian Sect. Due to the dual identities of Wei Ling and Li Lingyou, the vehicles still use the customary "Blue Bird" vehicle. In addition to Li Lingyou, there are also Li Lingyou's guardian Su. Except for the son, no family warlocks will be added.
The left team, led by Li Mutong, who ranks second among the core disciples of the clan, leads more than a dozen first-level guest ministers, more than thirty second-level guest ministers, and mid-level warlocks of the clan. Two worship elders hold the line, and the vehicle is still The Empire's "Blue Bird" class vehicle is not painted in the military standard.
The right team, headed by Li Banxia, who ranks fourth among the core disciples of the clan, is also equipped with more than a dozen first-level guest ministers, more than thirty second-level guest ministers, mid-level warlocks in the clan, and two worship elders. The vehicles are also the same. equipped.
The extra vehicle is used as a special vehicle for armament, energy supply and maneuverability.
Wei Ling was secretly dumbfounded by such a luxurious support lineup.
If the four gate clans are all equipped with teams in this way, their combat effectiveness will be very impressive, which will indeed help Murong's final decision and quickly pacify the entire Lubenyuan.
Wei Ling appropriately stated that the combat strength of his center unit was not estimated to match that of the two teams on the left and right, and requested that two seniors be assigned to hold the line. Li Yuanming and Li Jubai both smiled and refused:
"Wei Ling, although you seem to be just a high-level warlock, ordinary top warlocks can't please you in front of you, so let's forget it.
Those who are capable work hard. Among the young people of the Lingxian Sect, none of them are talents who can take charge of their own business. Don't worry, we still have several top experts on standby in the supply vehicle as a supporting deterrent. Regardless of whether it is left or center. Whichever team is in crisis, they will rescue them in time. "
Wei Ling smiled helplessly and gave up.
His original purpose was just to hope that the disciples of the Lingxian Sect could improve their abilities in actual combat. He didn't have much desire to compete for military success. It would all depend on luck.
The meeting also agreed on some plans for tactical deployment, communication support, information sharing and rescue supplies.
After the basic assistance strategy is finalized, arrangements will be made to use the more than a month before the New Year to conduct personnel training for the left and right teams.
After the main meeting, Li Yuanming and Li Jubai left the three "captains" Wei Ling, Li Mutong and Li Banxia behind and continued a small meeting.
Li Jubai's slender eyebrows were a little cold:
"By keeping you three for this small meeting, it can actually be considered as giving some necessary warnings in advance.
Speaking of which, my eldest brother and I are not worried about the middle team of Welling. Welling has many tasks and is capable of both wisdom and ability. What I am most worried about is Mutong and Banxia.
Although you are considered pretty good, there are still differences in your personal abilities and control of the situation. There are all kinds of risks on the battlefield.
Therefore, I hope that Mu Tong and Ban Xia, although you are nominally the captain, will respect the two elders accompanying the team more and refer to their opinions when it comes to important decisions. After all, the combat power in the clan cannot be easily lost. . "
The two nodded in agreement.
Li Yuanming chuckled:
"If you encounter something that would scare even the elders accompanying you, you might as well go forward and retreat with Wei Ling. I'm sure you won't make any big mistakes."
Wei Ling couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"Lord, my lord, my offer of assistance a few months ago was just to train my disciples in actual combat. I may not be able to handle such an important task."
Valve leader Li Yuanming's always gentle smile doesn't look very cute now:
"Haha, yes, it is indeed necessary for the Lingxian Sect to train the disciples' practical abilities. The Li family should also take the opportunity to practice the actual combat abilities of the second-level and first-level guest ministers. Even if they are worshiping the elders and have been in peace for a long time, they still have to worry. My old arms and legs are hard to use."
Li Jubai also seems to be unkind:
"Yes, I originally hoped to throw half of the clan's power into it. Otherwise, if others say that the Li clan is fierce in the future, it will be a bit unworthy of the name. It's a pity that the eldest brother is too conservative, so he has such a small battle."
Li Mutong couldn't help laughing:
"I just like Third Uncle's straightforwardness. There will be too few training opportunities like this in the future!"
Li Yuanming curled his fingers and hit Li Mutong on the head:
"You are the only one who is warlike. You have to make a decision before taking action. You don't have to be bold. We can't be independent."
Welling asked:
"Dare I ask the valve master, do the four major valves have such similar power configurations?"
Li Yuanming nodded:
"Yes, they are almost the same. The seven major families are slightly less, but the total of eleven families is not bad.
In fact, the combined strength of these forces is close to the combined strength of the Murong family and the Ying family that joined in the process.
This result was reached through joint discussion between the major clan heads and the heads of the aristocratic families some time ago. If each family sent more people, it would probably not only be the Ying clan trembling in fear, but even the Murong clan would be frightened, haha..."
Wei Ling and others smiled knowingly.
Yes, if the people who support the war are stronger than the Murong family themselves, the outcome of the battle for hegemony and founding of the country can naturally be determined in advance, but sharing the results after the war will give Murong a headache.
Li Banxia asked:
"The royal family won't send anyone, right?"
Li Ju rolled his eyes at Li Banxia:
"Use your brain! Whether it is Dongtu or Xixuan, it is customary to believe that the royal family represents the will of the empire. It is definitely not easy for the Ji family to take action. There is no need to ask such a simple question."
Li Banxia thought to herself that she was a bit superficial.
Finally, Li Yuanming's expression was incomprehensible, giving the three of them a warning:
"When the final front line advances to about a hundred kilometers from Luben City, there is no need to rush first. We must stop and wait for all the powerful families to form an encirclement on the outside. We cannot attack Luben City before the Murong family."
The three of them agreed.
…
The following days were rather lackluster.
Towards the end of the year, the Inspectorate would not assign new tasks to Wei Ling and the others, so they would go to the Inspectorate every now and then to check in.
I usually stay in the lakeside villa, giving guidance and practice to Scrophulariaceae, Xuantai, Wangyue, Hu Yanqi, Dace and Gui Che, and my life is very pleasant.
In December, when the winter snow first fell, Yuanbao, Yuanbei, Mo Yao, Wei Ling, Xuan Ming, Nan Xing, Shang Lu, and Jin Nu successively ended their five-year imperial military service in their lives and bid farewell to the military camp. They returned to the imperial capital one after another and entered the Li clan.
The leader of the clan, Li Yuanming, had already gone to the Hushu Courtyard with a smile several times to greet a group of young people and ask them if there was anything they were lacking and if they had any requests they needed to make to the clan. Corporal Li Xian reached his limit.
The large and connected courtyard of the lakeside villa became very lively as a group of young people moved in.
The gecko is always busy inside and outside the courtyard, preparing some unscheduled meals for everyone. Occasionally, when you look back, you may see a warm scene.
Master Wei Ling was sitting on his recliner, enjoying the sun, drinking tea and chatting with Li Lingyou.
Occasionally, Yang Xiaohe would come over, pretending to be cold and calm, but couldn't help but look everywhere for Shou Gong's figure. Sometimes Xie Wuyi would come over, laughing and joking with Jinu and Yuanbei.
The burly and tall Xuantai, even if he was sitting cross-legged on a straw mat, looked so broad. The little junior brother Gui Cha climbed up and down on his back, and he laughed without getting angry.
Mo Yao and Wei Ling also dropped their mats next to Wei Ling and the others, pretending to meditate or ask difficult questions.
Yuanbao and Nanxing were holding the dullest dace, always muttering in a corner of the courtyard, not knowing what they were communicating.
Phytolacca, who appears to be loyal but is actually cunning, has a great time using gravity to lift and lower the cloud axis.
Xuan Minghe, Wang Yue, Scrophulariaceae and others are truly communicating and practicing.
The three female disciples Yuan Bei, Jinu and Hu Yanqi were chatting happily in the small pavilion in the courtyard, and they laughed happily from time to time.
…
Zhu Sha also closed the private restaurant for three days and rushed over in time to join the sect's brothers.
Originally, Welling had already told her through the instant messaging system that she didn't need to come. Anyway, next year's mission had little relevance to her. It would really go against Welling's conscience to let a food lover with no fighting ability go to the battlefield.
Not only that, but later in the sect meeting, Wei Ling and the three elders unanimously decided that, except for Zhu Sha, Hu Yanqi, Dace Li, and Gui Che did not need to go to the endless ocean, and let them do the things they liked.
Even the two elders who had never participated in the sect meeting, Yang Xiaohe and Xie Wuyi, participated in this sect meeting.
At the meeting, Wei Ling distributed the divine metal provided by Dace to the brothers and sisters, allowing them to undergo the last metal immersion at the intermediate stage before advancing to the high level. As for whether they still need it after the high level, yes. No matter how much, it's all covered by the dace and carp.
All the senior brothers and sisters were very grateful. They praised the introverted and dull Daji until his face turned red, but his heart was warm and joyful.
After the meeting, Li Lingyou proposed that the palace guard should be executed, and all members of the Lingxian Sect left an ultra-clear holographic video on the viewing platform outside the Lake Villa.
Snow falls in winter, green tiles and white walls, clear water and cold pools.
Wei Ling sat in the middle, his black robe straight, his hands slightly clasped on his knees, his eyes calm and firm, looking straight ahead.
Next to Wei Ling sat Li Lingyou and Yang Xiaohe on the left, and Xie Wuyi and Shou Gong on the right. All four of them had a spring breeze on their faces, warm and gentle.
Behind the five people seated in the front row, there are two rows of standing disciples. Moyao and Weiling are in the middle of the front row, followed by Yuanbao, Xuanming, Nanxing, Yuanbei, Jinu, and Zhusha on both sides. Xuantai is in the middle of the back row, with Xuantai on both sides. They are Phytophaga, Scrophulariaceae, Wangyue, Huyan's Nest, and Dace.
In the front row, at the feet of Master Wei Ling, squatted a young man with a yin-yang face, smiling so hard that he couldn't even see his face. It was naturally a ghost car.
Among the characters, all the men are handsome, handsome, and suave, while the ladies are all beautiful, elegant and graceful, which has great visual impact.
That night, the entire clan had a dinner, and they had plenty of wine. After being persuaded by Mo Yao Wei Ling and other disciples to drink, Li Lingyou, whose face was red from drinking, had a twitch in his head, and threw the holographic image directly into Jixia Academy and placed it in " "Battle.net" public information.
The maintenance and management personnel of the academy's "Battle Network" immediately transformed themselves into headline-grabbers, claiming that "the Lingxian Sect's closed meeting, the mysterious leader appeared", "the characters hidden behind the Lingxian Sect", and "what the Lingxian Sect has to say" "A few people"... and other attractive titles highlighted each person in the holographic photo, and added some hearsay and catchy introductions, which instantly triggered a large number of people to browse and leave messages. , earning enough traffic and eyeballs.
As a result, this piece of information immediately fermented in the barrier system, and many fans of Xuan Ming, Nan Xing, Ji Nu, and Yuan Bei rushed to Li Clan's mansion overnight.
By the time Welling discovered the information in the barrier and promptly transferred the images to the Lingxian Sect's internal data, it was already too late. Too many people had collected and downloaded the images.
The next day, nearly a thousand people gathered in the square of Li Clan's residence, most of them young people, clamoring for a glimpse of their favorite gods and goddesses.
Li Chuanlian, the general manager of the Li Mansion, and Wang Yuliang and Li Fangjie, the security chiefs, were frightened by the large number of people gathered and worried about disturbing more elders or even triggering a group incident.
In the end, the general manager arranged for Li Fang to hurriedly go to the lakeside villa to ask for instructions and report.
Li Fangjie stammered, wiped his sweat, and finally explained the matter clearly.
Li Lingyou looked innocent. Facing the blank looks from Wei Ling, Xuan Ming, Nan Xing, Jin Nu, Yuan Bei and others, he spread his hands and shrugged, saying that he would just let them all go out for a meeting together.
Therefore, a small raised platform was immediately set up in the square outside the mansion, and a large number of seats were prepared to turn the disorderly gathering of people into a "fan meeting".
Wei Ling laughed heartily and took the rest of his disciples to drink tea around the stove in the living room.
