Sister Hong also glanced at Li Cong at this time. He thought that in addition to being the bodyguard of the second master Linghu, this guy must also have some other duties, such as discipline and so on. It should be like this. Now that he has appeared
He shouldn't just stay out of this kind of thing. If that's the case, then what else would this guy do? Li Cong also saw the look in her eyes and said I'm sorry. If I were really from your Linghu family, I might really
I will stand up and say something. Unfortunately, I am not from your Linghu family at all. The more chaotic things are in your family, the happier I will be. Don’t look at this kid calling me a brother now, but to be honest, this
It's all a superficial phenomenon. Who knows if this kid will be able to affect the people in his family after he goes back? If he can, it's okay, but if he can't, there will be nothing.
Things stayed in a stalemate for five minutes. Except for Linghu, who happily looked at some of the displays of force, there was no other sound. Everyone in the room also held their breath. Although they usually
It was nice to say that you can die for your master at any time, but can you really do it at this time? Maybe you can't, and you don't have the courage. All of this requires courage.
Yes, but this courage can cost one's life, who can show it? One by one, I look at you, you look at me, they all started to blame Sister Hong, blame Linghu? They don't have that
Courageous, even if their master had a bloody fight with the second young master, this matter has nothing to do with others, right? Naturally, they will not think of dealing with these little minions. It is all Sister Hong, a bitch like this.
It was done. Originally, they were all eighth-level warriors, and this bitch was a seventh-level warrior. They were all aggrieved by doing this. Who knew that they were still dying because of this bitch's words?
It's just thrown here, what the hell does it matter.
"You guys have an explanation for the second young master." After Sister Hong finished speaking, she went out. She was no longer looking at everything here. She also knew that she couldn't stay here, and she didn't know what the people under her would do at the last moment.
What happened? Her leaving these words was a happy ending to Linghu's nonsense. Seven eighth-level warriors were all recognized by the source of power. This is definitely a good explanation. Linghu
This boy is also very satisfied with the result. Li Cong can only mourn for these guys. After working hard all his life, it took tens of thousands of years to reach this level. Who would have thought that they could be wiped out with just one word?
There is no room for oneself to speak, and it means nothing if one is dead.
Linghu wanted to continue making trouble. But when he saw Li Cong shaking his head at this guy, he didn't say anything. Are you kidding me? Don't you know what the situation is now? Whose territory is this? It's yours.
?No, it belongs to your enemy, your cousin. If that guy is really angry, I don’t know what you will look like. Now we have basically taken everything we should take, and the rest will wait.
Just come back when the war starts, and you don’t need much left. There is really no need to add extraneous details at this time. Sister Hong left just now, which is proof that people are not willing to continue with you. If the ink is gone,
It really pissed off that woman, she was also a ruthless character.
When Linghu and Li Cong came out, several people in the house committed suicide. They had no choice. They knew that even if they could get out of the house, they could not get out of the island. As servants, they
They can only passively accept everything and have no right to actively choose. They are sad. As eighth-level warriors, they are also sad, because the people who want to kill them are more powerful than them. How many people are there?
Even death is a matter of course.
Linghu and Li Cong basically had no freedom behind them. More than three ninth-level warriors were staring at them. It was impossible to look around. Since there was no news, it would be a waste to stay here.
It's time. They should have left here. There is no point in continuing here, right? The two people looked at each other and reluctantly got on the flying monster. They quickly moved towards the airship. After a few hours of investigation,
It ended like this, but it was very good for Li Cong. At this time, both of them thought of another question, that is, how should this boy Linghu be arranged and put back? That is impossible. If this boy
What should I do if I adapted what he said after going back? Although Li Cong felt that he could trust him, people are so alienated these days. Who knows what was going on in his mind.
When the two of them thought about this problem, no one took the initiative to speak. For now, how to arrange Linghu is really a problem. It is absolutely impossible to put this guy back, but he is very scared to stay with him. Today there is
If someone like this wants to assassinate him, tomorrow it may be another guy. If he can protect himself today, he may not be able to do so tomorrow.
"Can I ask, where will I be next?" After walking for a while, Linghu finally spoke. This is not because this guy is not as patient as Li Cong, but because of this matter.
When it comes to himself, Li Cong is different. He doesn't think so much. He can take things slowly that don't concern him, but Linghu can't take things slowly. He sees that Li Cong
He looked like he knew that if he didn't speak, it would take a long time to know the result. At this moment, he already had his own goal, which was to make his identity as the heir more legitimate. He must not let it go.
His cousin kept giving him trouble as before, so he had to ensure his safety. He also knew that Li Cong would never put him back, but he would never take him away just like that.
This is not in line with the rules of being around each other. The collaborators are not real brothers. They can be together when there is benefit, but when there is no benefit, everything is not so reliable. Everyone knows this very well.
"I've given you two choices regarding your question. You just have to figure out which way to go. I won't force you." What Li Cong said is very good. I didn't force you, but
This gives you two options.
"Haha, this is the first time I have encountered such a thing. Choosing my own life? It's really good. Tell me, let me see what kind of choices I have. Just don't make me too boring.
"Linghu said helplessly. Once upon a time, he made the same choice for others. He didn't expect that he would reach this point now. He came to the Northern Empire purely because of his own whim. It seems that his character is not very well tempered.
If it was in place, there would be no need to use it.
"The first thing is naturally to find you a place with mountains, water, wine, food, and beautiful women for you to stay quietly. When everything is ready, I will come back to pick you up, and then we will go together
After a big fight at the place where you were just now, you can return to your Linghu family. If you need any help from me, I will definitely help you. The second step is to go to the frontline battlefields of the Northern Empire and the Eastern Empire.
, I have already trimmed several large fortresses there. I hope you can take a good look at it. When the two armies are fighting, you can have a good talk with Old General Linghu and don't let your soldiers suffer unnecessary casualties.
." Li Cong said with a smile. In fact, he was more inclined to Linghu to choose the second option. In this case, he might save a lot of things. For example, he could seal off the frozen forest without a war. Now in all aspects
The disadvantages have already been seen. As long as they can continue to block the frozen forest, the Thunder Gate will always be passive, unless they are willing to lose a lot of resources in the forest, but in that case it will be a dead end. Li Cong is betting now
The only thing is that they don't dare to do that. In fact, Li Cong also knows that after the fish and the net are broken, the three empires will not sit idly by. The wealth accumulated over tens of thousands of years, a fourth empire, may not rise in strength after the three parties are equally divided.
If it is less, it will be a huge disaster for the Eastern Empire, and they definitely understand this very well.
"Haha, you are trying to seduce me. Anyone who is not a fool will choose the second option. Not to mention someone like me who has such a high thirst for knowledge. Well, should we go to the front line at full speed to take a look?
What good thing do you have? You actually said that you can defeat my old general. I don’t think you have that much ability. Although my old general has not been on the battlefield for a long time, you are also a junior brother.
Yes, I don’t necessarily know much about war. My old man gave up a lot of occupied land and returned to defense. I guess you feel a lot distressed. My old man knows how to make choices in many aspects." Linghu said,
He only has respect for his great-grandfather in his family. Not only in military matters, he also understands how to deal with people in daily life. His great-grandfather taught him a lot.
Yes, if you learn everything, your life will be much, much easier.
"Haha, you will know everything if you go and see it. The most important thing I have in the border area is the defensive posture of barbed wire and gun towers. If you go there, you will know how much the Eastern Empire has to pay to pass such a defense line."
Li Cong said confidently that the most defensive thing for people in this era is to resist horses, but in Li Cong's opinion, that thing is rubbish. His three-dimensional defense mechanism will open your eyes. If you want to go there by then, there is no way.
The problem is, using your own body as a stepping stone for the army behind you, that's the only way to get over, otherwise...
"It sounds like he's very powerful. Forget it, I'm going to take a rest. Just call me when you get there." This guy said a little disbelievingly. In fact, the defense on the battlefield in this era is nothing to look at, but the offense is.
But there are many ways, many formations, and many weapons, but those weapons are nothing in front of Li Cong's army. The day will come when those things will be useless, and then the world will
The army will enter a new stage.
It is estimated that only two months have passed. According to Li Cong's estimation, the frontline defense line should not have changed significantly. However, when Li Cong arrived above the front line, he was frightened by what he saw.
Okay, how did this Tuoba Yuanye do it? How could it turn the front line into a hell? If this were placed on the earth, there would be absolutely no problem, because there are such and such things on the earth, mainly
It's normal for things like mechanization to look like anything, but what else is there in this world? It can only rely on human hands, but relying on these hands, Tuoba Yuanye got Li Cong a very
The terrifying frontline defenses can also be seen from above. This guy is definitely a war genius. He can understand so much just from some written materials given by the earth. This must be what he thinks in normal times.
Quite a few. If such a line of defense can be set up in the Frozen Forest, it will probably be a sure thing to block the Thunder Gate. Of course, ninth-level warriors can rush over, but people below ninth-level warriors
What? Do they still have the ability? Impossible, they simply don’t have the ability to rush over.
The defense line of more than 30 kilometers is all connected, 280 kilometers long from east to west, and 30 kilometers wide from north to south. This is the northern defense line that Tuoba Yuanye spent several months building for Li Cong. The entire defense line relies on three
The fortress is like a spider web radiating out to the surroundings. Anyone with a brain can see that this thing has put a lot of effort into it.
When Linghu was pulled out by Li Cong, he was a little shocked, but because this boy didn't know what the functions of Li Cong's things were, he didn't feel anything scary, it's just that these things were very novel.
, it was impossible to cause any harm, so seeing Li Cong's surprised look, he even thought that Li Cong had done it deliberately for him to see. In fact, it was not that powerful at all. Of course, many of the first
People who come here basically think this way. They don’t think Li Cong’s thing is so great. They all think it’s just new. But the people who build these things don’t think so. One hundred dollars a day
They worked hard to earn money for labor, taking care of food and housing, and they could get back three or four taels of silver every month. They wished this place would never end.
They are builders, and they also understand the terrifying nature of these things. Just like those iron wires, they don't look very powerful at ordinary times, but now there are so many prickly things that can cause serious damage if you don't pay attention.
It will make you bleed, so it’s better to be careful. Many of these people have suffered a lot here, but the hardest work is not done by them, it’s all those from the Eastern Empire.
It can be said that it was done by the captives of the Eastern Empire. Nearly 300,000 captives from the Eastern Empire died to become such a co-worker. 300,000 died in less than two months. Everything here is really stained.
There has been a lot of blood, but the number of 300,000 people will not make any waves here. No one will care about how those 300,000 people live, and they have no intention of caring about them.
.
"Didn't I say it will take a long time to get here? Have there been any changes in the Eastern Empire? I have just started here, but now I can say for sure that there are no 20 million people thinking
It is impossible to get through from here. We only need to arrange less than one million soldiers to hold on here. Our other armies can go behind them and surround them, but this is not the best time.
, I feel that I should be able to delay it for a while, and the tail has not even started yet." Tuoba Yuanye said when he saw Li Cong coming in, he was still studying how to make his defense line more powerful.
Who knew that Li would come in from now on without any news? Could it be that something really happened? He could only think about that, but when he saw a young man coming in,
This guy didn't say anything. What does this guy do? It seems that he has never seen him before. Could he be Li Cong's brother? I never heard that this guy has such a brother? I'm really confused.
"You know the situation on the front line better than I do. How can I know how it has changed? You probably know these things best, but things have indeed changed a bit, and that is the boy in front of me.
, This guy is the next generation heir of the Linghu family, I wonder if it will be of any help to you if I send this guy here?" Li Cong smiled and pushed the guy and said, Tuoba Yuan Ye's two relatives
When Bing heard that he was the heir of the Linghu family, he was about to draw his sword, but Tuoba Yuanye stopped them with a look. Are you kidding? Didn't you see this kid coming in comfortably? Either he was joking, or he was
This kid is very powerful, and now it seems that he is more likely to make a joke.
"If this kid is the heir to the Linghu family, why don't they let the people of the Eastern Empire withdraw their troops? Or is this kid just an impostor? This is the front line. I don't have much time to talk to you. Please tell me quickly what's going on here.
There are a lot of them." Tuoba Yuanye said angrily. This kid is very interested in these new gadgets now. Li Cong suddenly said something like this, and naturally he was not very happy in his heart.
Of course, Li Cong needs to speak quickly and don't delay himself.
"I know you are impatient. Let me introduce you. Just stop for half an hour. I believe you will be very grateful for the half hour I gave you in the future. This is the Western Empire.
The former General Mop is now my General. This is really the heir of the Linghu family. There is a bit of misunderstanding between us at the moment, so I can only leave it to you first. This boy is ours.
Ally, but now he needs to give me a condition for alliance, so he has to live here with us for a while. He may help us." Li Cong said with a smile, is this true? Tuo
Pulling Yuanye is also a bit unbelievable. How could such a good thing happen? This boy from the Linghu family has no brains or what happened, and he fell into your hands? As for the alliance Li Cong said,
He just omitted it directly. He would never believe such a thing. Why would someone form an alliance with you?
"I know you have some misunderstandings. But what I said is true, Linghu. It's better for you to explain this matter to our general. I'll take a look at the situation on the front line." Li Cong was too lazy to explain this to Tuoba Yuanye.
I have taught this to Linghu. Linghu naturally knows the importance of this guy. He will have to live here for a while in the future. It should be right to have a good relationship with the guy in front of him, so he will be patient.
He talked about his time with Li Cong. What will happen in the future is up to our general to figure out.
"So that's what happened. Your boy's fate is really wicked. Who is this general of your Linghu family, Linghu Pinqiu, to you?" Tuoba Yuanye half understood. Anyway, he knew this boy.
He should be one of his own now, but the soldier still made him feel a little suspicious. The person opposite should be his grandfather or something. How could he be on good terms with him? This thing seems a bit unjustifiable.
"Linghu Pinqiu is my second great-grandfather, the second most important person in the family, and my cousin's great-great-grandfather. He is also my cousin's biggest supporter. What do you think I can do with that person?
Relationship? On the surface, our relationship is okay, but the two times I almost died in my life were all related to my great-grandfather. Although there is no direct evidence, I can be sure that my relationship with him is not
Xiao, some of the forces in my family that belong to me are not in the military, and those that belong to him are in the military, so you can hit him as hard as you can, and I definitely support this."
The conflicts within a big family are definitely much more severe than those outside. Whatever is strong on the outside is broken from the inside. Tuoba Yuanye is also from a big family. He naturally understands this reason.
After listening to what he said, I finally understood that this kid should be on my side.
"I said, Tuoba, come here and tell our young master Linghu some of the situation on our side, and let him estimate the chances of the East Emperor's army winning. Knowing yourself and your enemy will never be in danger. This sentence is correct.
"Li Cong said at the edge of the sand table.
It was also the first time for Linghu to see such a thing. After walking to the edge of this thing, he couldn't take his eyes away. How could there be such a thing? This thing is so good that it can cover the whole thing.
The situation on the battlefield is very clear. If we can study it carefully, the outcome of the battle may come out. Although it cannot be said to be 100% accurate, at least 70% or 80% of it will be no problem. This
There are really a lot of new things here in Cao Ke.
"Haha, okay, now it's time for me to report my work to you. I haven't been idle for a minute in the past two months. As you can see, this is our entire northern defense line. In front of our defense line are the three
There are two trenches ten meters apart. They are mainly used to defend against enemy cavalry. As long as the enemy's army passes here, the serial crossbows of the 712 gun towers on the first line around here can hit them.
, they can launch a series of attacks on them from a high position. They will need at least hundreds of thousands of soldiers' lives to fill these two trenches. At this time, they face some defenses in front of the gun towers. This is mainly
Our separate gun tower defense system." This guy said this word after listening to a lot of Li Cong's words. This also made Li Cong take a high look at this guy and thought he was a conservative. Unexpectedly, he was not bad at all.
The so-called gun tower defense system is that after most of the surrounding areas are occupied, it can be supported by one gun tower. The total height of the gun tower is about 25 meters, the diameter is five meters, and there are four floors from top to bottom. Each tower has four floors.
There are four to six shooting holes on each floor, and there are four to five small turrets around a main turret, all on the first floor. They are also called bunkers. They will not be exposed in normal times.
These things will only be exposed when they are needed. There are about thirty to forty people in each turret. This is already a lot. If there are more, their logistics and supply will become a big problem.
Yes, when the overall defense line has not been breached, naturally there is no need to worry about the supply problem, but if the defense line is breached and it becomes an isolated island, this will not be so good, and you have to have your own plan.
"The supply problem is the most serious problem. We all have our own opinions on this issue. We now have tunnels under each gun tower, but for the transportation of personnel, we are not prepared to use this to transport armaments.
Food and other things, because this tunnel is very narrow, now we can only let one person go forward. If we let the person in front retreat, there will be things sent up from behind. This will easily form a blockage below, I think.
This kind of thing is something that no one can think of. In the end, we may suffer from it, so the current underground passage is just a preliminary idea. We need to have time to dig deeper and wider." Tuoba.
Yuan Ye is very willing to implement the underground passage proposed by Li Cong, but the difficulty now is that these things are not so easy to handle. It is a completely different thing than talking about it. If nothing else, just talk about this dirt
This is a big problem. Of course, this is not the most important. The most important thing is the communication problem below. Now we can use semaphores between the two gun towers, but if someone comes out to use semaphores when the real war begins, this
People are very dangerous. As long as the enemy captures a prisoner on your side, people will know what your semaphore means. It has no effect.
"The time is still not enough. Just keep on working. I have a solution for the connection problem you mentioned. You can ask someone to bring some bamboo. Just make it hollow in the middle.
Yes, make a native phone." Li Cong said with a smile. On earth, this kind of thing is something that only kindergarten children know, but here it is a very novel thing. Not many people know what this thing is.
Yes.
"What...what thing? What did you say just now? What kind of electronic thing? What is that?" Tuoba Yuanye said with some confusion. Linghu also had a look of doubt on his face. What did Li Cong say?
What's the matter? How can you say something but people like you don't know anything about it? What's going on? Are you out of touch with society?
"It's just a tool for communication. I forgot. This thing has never appeared here before. In fact, it's very simple. Isn't there one outside this house? Let's try it." Li Cong pointed to a long bamboo outside.
Said, this thing is used to set up some things on the front line, and now it is thrown here. After Li Cong finished speaking, he went out, but the two people in the room didn't know what was going on. This piece of bamboo was connected with the communication tool.
What does it matter? Is there something wrong with my brain?
Li Cong stood on the other end of the bamboo, about 20 meters away, and whispered something. The other two people looked at Li Cong with blank faces. It was obvious that they had not heard what Li Cong said.
What, of course, if they use their own abilities to listen, there will be no problem. Li Cong told them before that they have to use their ordinary people's abilities to listen. Of course, they can't hear anything. Now
Everyone was wondering. Fortunately, Linghu was just a prisoner. This guy had plenty of time. Li Cong could do whatever he wanted, but Ke Tuoba Yuan Ye was different. He had a lot to do.
Yeah, I don't have that much time to hang out with Li Cong here.
"You two lie down on that side of the bamboo." Li Cong said loudly to the two of them, and then lay down. They didn't think that Li Cong would fool around with them like that, so they also lay down.
Okay, what's going on?
"What do you two think of this thing of mine?" Suddenly a clear voice came from the bamboo, which frightened the two of them. With ordinary people's hearing, they would not have heard anything without this thing.
It was impossible to hear what Li Cong said, but now I heard it very clearly. This is the first time I have encountered such a thing. Li Cong is really not a fool, this is
Those who really have that ability are definitely good.
"Haha. This thing is really great. With this thing, we can still communicate with most of the artillery towers even if the war starts. This kind of thing is really good. Why didn't you come here before?
If I had come earlier, there might have been something like this by now. I will immediately arrange for someone to install this thing." Tuoba Yuanye's way of doing things has not been adapted, so he quickly went to work. Li Cong looked at this depressedly.
With just one glance at this guy, he, as an inventor, has been forgotten so much. This guy's mind is really spinning around so fast. Linghu is still looking at this thing happily. He is really willing to stay in Li Cong now.
I know that this guy does a lot of things that are unexpected. At least I think this is right, and I have learned a lot.
"How about it? Don't look at this here, go to the front and take a look at the fortifications in front. How much do you think it will cost for your Eastern Empire's army to pass through here?" Li Cong said proudly, although
Everything here was done by Tuoba Yuanye and his people. He just gave others a preliminary idea. Now it seems that this thing is still very good and has an absolute relationship with him. They don't have their own ideas.
It is impossible to make such a thing. In this era, this thing is a war machine, a huge war monster, a war monster that millions of people cannot get past. Although it has not been through actual combat, Li Cong can feel it.
Come. This thing will bring you victory.
"Okay, there's no need to show off your strength here. I can see what you are capable of. If this were left to my second grandpa, everything here would really surprise me. I don't know what you are capable of."
What should we do in the end? Anyway, we will have to inflict serious losses on them. As far as I know, the troops coming this time exceed 40 million troops, and the reserve army exceeds 100 million. The empire has not had this for a long time.
Such a big fight means that we value you. The empire's two large ace legions will come by then. One is from our Linghu family, and the other belongs to the imperial family. It's best not to let them go back."
Hu blinked his eyes and said, for him, although these people are the army of the Eastern Empire, and he is also a member of the Eastern Empire, they are a stumbling block to his rise in his own country, and he does not want them to appear here.
.
"That's natural. As long as someone wants to come over and invade my place, there will be no return. In fact, I think your Linghu family and the court have the same idea this time. They want to open it from me.
A gap, and then let the top leaders of the Thunder Sect go back from here with a large number of things?" Li Cong said, he always guessed about such things, and he didn't know what it was in the end, jumping from the Eastern Empire
He thought so the day he came out.
"Haha, this is natural. The Thunder Gate has been established for more than 60,000 years. How many things have been produced in these 60,000 years? Warehouse No. 1 and Warehouse No. 2 are both in the frozen forest. Only Warehouse No. 3 is
In the place we visited a while ago, all the precious things were inside. Do you think they would let you discover their whereabouts? Besides, it’s not you they’re afraid of. How many masters can you mobilize? Do you want to fight against them?
It is impossible for them to cause some substantial damage. What they are afraid of are the three empires behind you. As long as you force them to show up, this battle will not be your business. It will be the Eastern Empire and the Thunder Gate.
In the war between the three empires, even for the Thunder Gate and the Eastern Empire, there is no guarantee that they can really win this war. The Eastern Empire has only become stronger in the past tens of thousands of years. Some time ago, the three parties were almost the same.
Yes, it is impossible for them to surpass each other by much, so no one knows what kind of trump card anyone has." This guy sees the problem very thoroughly. Once upon a time, Li Cong thought that he was very strong, but after hearing this
This kid's words still make him feel a little sad. The things he is proud of are actually nothing in the eyes of others. These things are not even his opponents to others. It is really sad.
That's right, after going this time, Li Cong also saw that an eighth-level warrior from a warehouse was running around the streets, and he was the kind of person recognized by the source of power. He couldn't be said to be running around if he wasn't recognized there.
The difference is really not that small, so it's better to recognize it yourself.
However, Li Cong soon became optimistic. Although he had no intention of becoming a real opponent, he had participated in it to some extent. To give himself a consolation, the important thing was to participate. Since he faced off against the Thunder Sect, he has also made great achievements.
He still has a lot of wealth and trillions of assets. Although it is nothing compared to his huge assets, it is still a lot.
In fact, Linghu's luck is pretty good today. This guy has been complaining all the way that he didn't see the actual combat here. Now this guy has a chance. The spies came and reported that there were about 300,000 Eastern Emperor troops heading towards this place.
Although the troops of the Eastern Empire have retreated to what they call the pass, some cavalry will come out to harass them from time to time. Small-scale battles are indispensable, so the two sides will continue to fight for a few days.
Once, Li Cong suffered a lot from this side at the beginning. After all, his colleagues had not repaired it yet, and it was very easy for them to come in. The people on his side were not ready, so they suffered a lot.
It's a loss, but the last two times they came, they didn't get any good results. This time Linghu probably saw a more fierce struggle, because the things around him were basically trimmed, so it was okay to practice with them.
Very normal thing.
Standing on the highest observation deck, Linghu became interested in some things here again. This thing was like a singing copper. I really didn’t know what the use of this thing was. Several people were using them to look at things in the distance.
, what’s in it? Li Cong happily gave this guy one, and he imitated Li Cong and picked it up. This time he was shocked. Oh my god, he could actually see things in the distance.
, even those faces can be seen clearly, this...is this too evil?
