The following is the real events that happened on the border of the Valen Empire, described from Chen Binghao’s first perspective.
As mentioned before, in addition to the directly ruled imperial capital and the four plain areas under its jurisdiction, the Varun Empire also has countless more than 100 areas, large and small, governed by various ethnic groups.
These autonomous regions are all leaders selected by each ethnic group through elections within the ethnic group under the instructions of the emperor.
In addition to having to follow the imperial orders from the imperial capital, these autonomous areas are basically not subject to the control of any local officials. Although the imperial capital does send officials to these autonomous areas, they only assist in management and do not have the authority to rule.
As for why there are so many introductions, it is because Chen Binghao and his brothers in the battalion are the security team assigned by the imperial court to maintain order.
And An Yitai, the brother Etai mentioned by Liu Chengyong, is their captain.
At the same time, An Yitai was also Liu Chengyong's classmate when he was young, and he was a classmate and friend.
That's why when he saw the blood-stained token, this high-ranking official behaved a bit erratically.
Although in terms of status, she is very different from her former classmates, the friendship she had from back then is still there.
Of course, only Palace Master Liu himself knows if there is anything else besides these.
It can be seen that Chen Binghao wanted to tell the middle-aged man in front of him everything he knew as soon as possible, but his body was extremely weak, which caused his story to be intermittent and some of his words did not make sense.
Until Liu Chengyong stretched out a hand and pressed it on his chest, a warm current spread quickly throughout his body, making Chen Binghao, who was weak to the limit and forced himself to wake up with only willpower, instantly refreshed and his speech became fluent. many.
Li Yi couldn't help but frown when he saw this scene.
"That day...I don't remember which day it was. I just remember that the moonlight in the sky was very beautiful. We rarely see such a beautiful moon here in the west. The captain said that this is the day of reunion, so let us all I don't want to take out the rations that I usually hold and share them together. What I think about is that if I have to go out on patrol, the rations I saved can last a few more days, or I can leave some for my brothers who eat a lot. As for the reunion, Yes, I have been an orphan since I was a child, and everyone is my family. We are reunited every day... It's good, wu wu wu, but everyone, everyone died, and no one survived. I saw it with my own eyes... They , they died so miserably!"
As he talked, this tough guy who had spent many nights in Storm Cave and traveled thousands of miles in one breath finally collapsed at this moment and couldn't help but burst into tears.
It's like after persisting for a long time, finally seeing hope, the emotions that were originally suppressed were released.
That scene was really such that those who saw it were silent and those who heard it were sad.
Because of Liu Chengyong's power, Chen Binghao, who was originally weak and on the verge of life and death, recounted his experience smoothly. Later, he fell into an emotional breakdown and fell asleep directly after crying.
After Liu Cheng waved his hand and asked someone to lift him down, he was silent for a long time, seeming to be thinking about countermeasures.
What the intelligence soldier Chen Binghao said was very complicated. After all, he was not an important person. The reason why the whole regiment was covering him was just because their target was small and fast, and he was the most likely person to break through the siege and come to Fucheng to report the news.
As for what happened, it's actually not complicated.
This is like many regimes. The areas closer to the center are more developed, while the more peripheral areas are difficult to achieve real development due to issues such as development focus and border threats.
The rulers will obviously not choose to shift the focus of development to border areas where even security cannot be fully guaranteed.
If you really do that, you are either stupid or brainless.
The same goes for the ruler of the Valen Empire. Although Wang Quan is not a competent ruler, he is not a fool. Changing the rules set by his ancestors at will is not something he will do. He only needs to follow the rules without making any changes. Just business as usual.
But this does not mean that the border, which was originally quiet and stable during the former emperor's time, will remain business as usual.
Time changes many things.
The fire that happened thousands of miles away on the border was originally just an accident.
But this accident unexpectedly triggered a bigger crisis.
"Just like a butterfly on the east coast accidentally flapped its wings and triggered a tsunami on the other coast, it is the same reason. An unexpected fire on the border is entirely likely to trigger a top-to-bottom tsunami. Upheaval.”
"So? We just don't care about anything and just watch?"
"Haha, otherwise what do you think you can do? Single-handedly kill people and quell the rebellion? Let's not talk about whether you can do it. Even if you have the ability to do it, in what name will you be suppressed? Are you the emperor's friend?"
Li Yi frowned slightly when he heard this.
"I don't want to get involved in this mess. It's obviously a mess. The officers and soldiers on the border are already suffering a lot. Being deducted from their military pay doesn't count... Well, this Palace Master Liu shouldn't be in trouble, but the people below him are not. It’s easy to say, but to be honest, this is only one aspect, otherwise all the officers and soldiers would not have been killed cleanly, and only one escaped alive. I even think they might have let him go on purpose.”
"Oh? Why do you say that?"
Moros was obviously taken aback and felt a little surprised.
Because in his opinion, if he hadn't happened to meet Fu Yuan, it was obvious that this person would not have been able to escape to Fucheng alive.
Moreover, the killer has chased him to Fucheng. Isn't that enough to express the other party's determination to silence him?
"You have to do a complete show. This is not what I said. Let me see, after controlling the situation, if you want to achieve the effect of a surprise attack, silencing is the best choice. Don't talk about chasing the city, even if you are It was very reasonable to sneak into the city and kill the only person who knew about it, but according to what Fu Yuan said, the killers were very cruel at first after seeing him, and seriously injured several of their men in an instant, but later I didn't know why. For what reason, you resisted for a while and then quickly withdrew, this is too suspicious, isn't it?"
"Well...what you said makes some sense, but I still want to ask, are you humans so good at this kind of intrigue? It feels like I have exhausted all my energy and energy. I didn’t expect so many.”
Li Yi smiled when he heard this.
"Haha. You are too modest. I think you have great potential. It is actually difficult for ordinary people to see through the phenomenon and the essence of this kind of thing. You can imagine that this level is already stronger than most people."
After hearing Li Yi's praise, Moros's tone became obviously much cheerful.
"Really? Well, I won't pretend anymore. In fact, these are still taught by my seniors. It seems that my seniors have also experienced a lot!"
Listening to Moros' emotion, Li Yi smiled slightly and said nothing, but the expression on his face suddenly became much gloomier.
What kind of senior is that?
Are you sure those you are talking about are really your so-called seniors?
Why do I feel that your thinking is a little too smooth?
Didn’t you really come up with those analyzes yourself?
As a system...newbie, are your ability to understand and draw inferences from one example a little too strong?
Almost the same as humans, okay?
Thinking of this, Li Yi couldn't help but once again have doubts about this unknown creature that claimed to be from outside the universe.
Is this guy really from outside the universe?
It's really because of his seniors that he is so familiar with all this and it seems so natural.
Is it like he came up with all this analysis by himself?
Why do I feel so untrustworthy?
"Mr. Li? Mr. Li?"
At this time, a voice interrupted Li Yi's thoughts and brought him back to his senses.
Taking a closer look, Li Yi immediately felt that everyone in the room was staring at him.
The most obvious one is Liu Chengyong himself.
Seeing that Li Yi seemed to finally wake up, Liu Chengyong didn't care at all about Li Yi's neglect, but smiled and asked a question.
"Mr. Li, what do you think?"
“What should be done to resolve this border insurgency?”
"You...are asking for my opinion?"
Li Yi pointed at himself, glanced around unconsciously, and found that everyone was looking at him.
Some of these people know his identity, some don't know...of course the majority don't know.
Therefore, there are a lot of incomprehensible looks...
Seeing this, Li Yi understood.
Do you want him to come up with ideas?
This obviously wants him to contribute!
Looking at Liu Chengyong's face with a faint smile, Li Yi couldn't help but curse inwardly.
Old fox!
