"It’s not important who leads."
"As long as you’re happy."
"Lei Laong..."
The ever-reliable Lei Laong puffed out his chest: "? I can do as much as you want!"
Breaking Army said: "Unfortunately, there are no beasts here."
"Would you use cals and wild horses to charge the army?"
Lei Laong deflated, saying: "Well, it’s not impossible..."
Breaking Army said: "Sadly, this is the Western Regions, where Western warriors excel at mounted archery and roping horses with flying lassos. Are you planning to resupply the enemy army? Currently, the winds are changing in the Western Regions, and the cities around Aqini are stirring."
"Soon, there will be armies with blood-red eyes coming to test us."
"Among our people, except for the Lord, no one can command large-scale battles, and even the Lord is not skilled in Western cavalry with bows. We need a General, soone with leadership skills at the level of ten thousand troops, a Divine Shooter General."
Everyone fell silent.
Li Guanyi flipped through the records, his expression calm. He gradually understood the changing situation and said: "So, we have a great position, but this turbulent Western Region doesn’t give us a chance to build our strength, does it?"
Breaking Army smiled and said: "My Lord, you are right."
Lei Laong was stupefied.
Ha?
Where did that sharp-tongued and ruthless strategist go?
Li Guanyi finished flipping through the records and smiled: "Then, the ti is ripe."
"Changsun."
Changsun Wuchou was slightly startled, then realized sothing. His expression changed slightly. He stood up and stepped forward, bowing: "Here I am!"
Li Guanyi smiled: "I ca to the Western Regions on the invitation of ng Erlang, intending to have you send a ssage directly to him. But after encountering these many events, it’s been a month or two now, it’s ti to contact him."
Changsun Wuchou looked moved and said: "Lord!"
Li Guanyi picked up his brush and ink, donning his scale armor and battle robe, exuding a dignified aura that made him seem like an imposing presence, and said: "Now, I have land, I have people, and everywhere I look, I see opponents. I lack money, I lack generals, which corresponds exactly with Erlang."
"It’s ti to send him a reply."
Li Guanyi wrote down the response in one stroke.
Just three words.
He placed the brush down and folded the letter, handing it over with a calm expression, smiling: "Take this letter to Erlang, tell him it’s my response. If he still retains the youthful spirit, he will understand."
Changsun Wuchou was excited, holding the letter with both hands, bowing respectfully.
The second lady was constrained in the Duke Mansion. Lord and the eldest and third young masters all imposed certain restrictions on her, while Li Guanyi was living between heaven and earth, but was short-handed, and the two should easily co to an agreent.
Changsun Wuchou couldn’t help but think, if the second lady and the Lord were to marry.
It would truly be a formidable alliance.
Aqini is currently an isolated city, with nothing but this strategic location. In the chaotic Western Regions, it’s hard to grow stronger over ti, like a dragon confined in a chessboard, whereas the second lady has everything except the city and righteousness.
This relationship, ford two years ago, at this mont, is a masterstroke on the chessboard, breaking the predicant for both individuals.
Li Guanyi smiled and said: "Tell Erlang, I haven’t seen him for a long ti. We brothers haven’t t for over two years, and I’ve benefited a lot from him. This ti, we must have a big, drunken reunion!"
Changsun Wuchou’s dreams broke completely, grinning awkwardly.
He wondered how he would tell the Lord about the truth regarding the second lady.
She’s not soone who would drag you to drink or fight in brothels like a young lad, no, she is a great beauty with both talent and virtues.
Looking at the Lord’s expression, as if eting a good brother at last.
Even soone as cunning as Changsun Wuchou felt a twinge in his heart.
In the end, he simply bowed and decided not to worry, saying: "I will follow orders and send the ssage like a Flying Eagle..."
Li Guanyi said: "This is important, go personally."
"Oh, by the way, select so gifts, and send that golden curved blade of Huyan Yinshi’s as well, as my greeting gift to him."
Changsun Wuchou was stunned and said: "Yes!"
The world is full of unrest, especially in the Western Regions.
The Dangxiang struggled before death, the Wolf King gathered his claws, and three more tribal leaders proclaid themselves kings, and at this ti, a lone rider, a fierce general, charged out from the isolated city of Aqini where Li Guanyi was, crossing thousands of miles across the Western Regions.
Past the borders of Ying Country, he stepped into the first major Heroic City of Ying’s western territories.
If the Western Regions were a chessboard.
This move breaks the predicant, connecting chess pieces that have been isolated with their own arrangents into a grand trend, heading straight for the Duke Mansion, bypassing nurous obstacles set by the eldest and third young masters, reaching where Li Zhaowen was.
Waited for a mont.
A young girl in brocade, with a golden silk hairpin, dressed in male attire, walked out briskly:
"Has Mr. Li sent a letter?!"
Changsun Wuchou looked at the second lady’s face, with an expression like [a good brother finally arrived, keeping waiting so long], and felt not just a twinge of heartache, but his stomach was starting to hurt.
Oh well, let it be.
He took the letter from his bosom, holding it with both hands, solemnly:
"The Lord’s letter is here!"
