The faint moonlight shines into the house through the window, and the silent atmosphere makes people feel very depressed.
When Yuna said those shocking words, Zhou Yunfei suddenly fell into deep thought after confirming that she was not joking.
Of course, it's not that he thought wrongly, but that he subconsciously thought it was ridiculous.
Zhou Yunfei himself thinks that it is nonsense to talk about love at first sight. No matter how evil and cute you are, under the cruel reality of family pressure, Zhou Yunfei does not think that there will be the kind of Romeo and Juliet-like love. This is probably because of his body.
It's a tragedy for a wealthy family.
The seemingly absurd decision actually hides deep sadness.
Zhou Yunfei suddenly decided that she was pitiful, yes, pitiful. To outsiders, she seemed to be the apple of the eye of the first family in the north and the first heir to take charge of the family in the future. In fact, she was actually a little woman who sacrificed her own happiness for the sake of the family. Not only that, I'm afraid she is still the same now.
For the sake of your precarious status as heir, you should resort to the last resort.
It seems that the conflicts within the Claire family have intensified, and both sides are ready to fight to the death. This is the helplessness behind the power.
Zhou Yunfei sighed secretly. He didn't like these life-and-death activities for power. Although he understood it, he really didn't like it.
Yuna looked at the other person in silence, with a look of pity in her eyes, and her nose was a little sore. She turned her head and looked away, not wanting him to see her weak side.
After a long time, Zhou Yunfei sighed and said: "Miss Yuna, if you have anything to say, just say it and don't talk about marriage anymore. I think there are other ways to cooperate between us besides marriage.
.”
In fact, Yuna regretted what she just said. Of course, it was not that she regretted marrying someone, but because this sentence exposed her eagerness to find support from outside the clan. Sure enough, this little brother saw through her current situation.
This situation is extremely detrimental to the upcoming new round of cooperation. So she wants to get rid of this situation, or to strive for greater benefits for herself.
"Should I call you my cute little brother? Or the respected Lord of Dragon City?" Yuna smiled playfully. Zhou Yunfei was slightly stunned after hearing this, and then thought about where he had exposed himself, "It seems that he is still too young.
I thought I didn’t recognize him even if I had met him before, but I didn’t know that he had already figured it out.” Zhou Yunfei sighed secretly.
"Haha, little lord, you actually did a good job before. I think many of the forces paying attention to Dragon City don't know your identity, but this time you did it too conspicuously. The two people in Dragon City
A general, as well as a team comparable to the Knights, are all guarding a certain little lord. It is not difficult to guess that you are a person with status in Dragon City, and several deacons in Dragon City
He has no heirs, and there are no nobles in the city, so he must be the young master of the city lord's palace. According to the news, the lord of Dragon City is very young. When we got this news, we thought that the young man was just a compliment, but now it seems that it is really
It's surprising how young you are." Yuna brushed her hair around her ears.
Zhou Yunfei smiled bitterly. It seemed that his impulsive trip had exposed himself. At first, after hearing Yuna's words, he was still hesitant to go back. After all, no one wanted to put himself in danger, but now that he thinks about it, these people
The nobles are probably thinking about how to win over themselves. The emperor's time to come to the imperial capital is running out, and no one wants to make enemies at this juncture. These nobles are really realistic, each one is better than the last. And the Claire family probably feels the same way.
Taking advantage of the upcoming big reshuffle, when various forces dare not act easily, let's fight for power within the clan. In this way, we might be able to occupy a place during the reshuffle and not be reduced to mere bystanders.
Sure enough, after Zhou Yunfei admitted that he was the Lord of Dragon City, Yuna asked Zhou Yunfei with a serious face to stand behind her and support her in gaining the power of the Claire family. She also promised that once she becomes the patriarch of the clan in the future, she will fully
Start cooperating with Longcheng, and recommend Zhou Yunfei's noble title, and even consider a marriage between the two parties. Of course, when she said this, Yuna kept ogling someone, which made someone yell that she couldn't stand it.
However, Zhou Yunfei did not make an immediate decision. He only said that he would discuss it with his advisers and consider it carefully. After all, the two parties still had an agreement and the cooperation was relatively harmonious.
When Yuna left with a disappointed look on her face, Zhou Yunfei immediately called Zhao Yun who was lying on the bed and asked about the banquet because Yuna just mentioned that the new city lord was a member of the Presbyterian Council.
Zhao Yun was originally planning to report tomorrow, but since his lord asked about it, he informed Zhou Yunfei of the cooperation intention conveyed by him. Then Zhou Yunfei frowned and balanced the interests of the two parties.
After Zhao Yun left, Zhou Yunfei contacted Zhuge Liang who was far away in Longcheng. Although he was a little worried about the long-distance phone bill, he couldn't care about that much. He couldn't bear to bear these small ones and the big ones would be gone in the future.
When Zhou Yunfei informed Zhuge Liang of the two parties' intention to cooperate, Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and said to Zhou Yunfei: "Lord, this is an opportunity. We must participate in it. No matter which party it is! The most important thing is to declare our mission to the world.
Existence is not just about business, but more importantly! Strength! The coming empire chaos, even if some people are afraid of making enemies and dare not easily stir up trouble, but when everything is put on the surface and the hypocritical politeness is torn away, those
The forces that each support will fight for it with open swords. At that time, there is no guarantee that no one will take the opportunity to annex us! Therefore, we must first show our edge before everything becomes clear, to deter Xiaoxiao, and also to make those who have interests first give up the use of force to annex us and seek to annex us.
cooperate."
"In addition, we can also take this opportunity to maximize the time to develop ourselves. There is no doubt that we will be able to participate in it and look for opportunities in the future!" Zhuge Liang said confidently.
After some advice from Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yunfei understood the stakes and continued to ask: "So, sir, which side do you think we should support? And how should we act?"
Zhuge Liang replied: "Lord, there is no difference between the two sides for us. Of course, Miss Yuna's side should be relatively weak at this time. If we want to gain greater initiative in the future, we should support her, and the elders
Yes, I don't think highly of them. Although they are temporarily stronger than Yuna's side, they are also internally unstable. After all, people are selfish, not to mention those who desire more power? What if Liang expected
Yes, the Presbyterian Church is in power, and the Clare family will inevitably split. For the split Clare family, our Dragon City is very disadvantageous, because it will attract many people who have been coveting northern influence. When the time comes, there is no guarantee that no one will take advantage of the crisis and divide me into equal parts.
Eat it.”
After listening to Zhuge Liang's words, Zhou Yunfei thought about the future division of the Claire family, and various aristocratic families would flock here. After dividing Claire, his greedy eyes turned to Zhou Yunfei again. He thought that it would be much safer to have a target on the Dragon City. So Zhou Yunfei decided
Help Yuna take power and continue to ask: "So sir, how should we act?"
"Use thunder to break it quickly. According to the information sent by Wen He, the Presbyterian Church has only 30,000 troops at this time, concentrated in Mok City. Mok City is the second largest city of the Claire family, and it is the place where the slaves were handed over.
, the main members of the Presbyterian Church are expected to be waiting for us in the city this time. I think the other party is also eager to use forces from outside the clan to support them, which gives us an opportunity." Zhuge Liang paused and continued: "This time
The first point is to control Seth City. As the first stronghold for Dragon City to cross the Hengduan River, this place must be occupied and seized quickly. No information can be revealed. If necessary, kill without mercy. The Lord's Guard
The team is all in the city at this time. According to the intelligence of the spies, there are only 500 guards in Seth City, and they are all peasant soldiers. Their combat effectiveness is negligible. The main guard of the city only has more than 50 knights. It is easy to eliminate them.
The main purpose of the battle was to prevent the news from leaking. General Liang sent 2 more teams of white horse archers and 1 team of tiger and leopard cavalry to chase the grain team, and notified Feng Xiaozijing. Together with the 2 teams of leather infantry from the food team, it was enough to control the surrounding areas of Sais City. And the Lord
Then don't contact Miss Yuna for the time being, and wait for the situation to become clear before the showdown, and she will not give up this rare opportunity under our control, and will definitely cooperate with our actions. However, the lord must recruit more soldiers, I'm afraid Liang
We still don’t have enough troops.”
Zhou Yunfei immediately called up the system after hearing this. Seeing that the city's population had increased to about 25,000, he felt at ease and immediately started recruiting soldiers.
Add 4 teams of Yanyun cavalry, 4 teams of white horse Yicon, 4 teams of tiger and leopard cavalry, and add 2 teams each of leather infantry and archers.
The number of heavy armored spearmen and heavy armored infantry increased to 10 teams, forming a large-scale combat capability.
The heavy crossbowmen, heavy armored soldiers, and euphorbia warriors each increased by 2 teams. In addition, 1 team of white horse archers and 4 teams of light armored horse archers were added for patrolling and guarding around Dragon City.
This large-scale increase in troops increased the number of Longcheng troops to 11,330. In addition to the 1,100 naval troops, the Longcheng guards left 2 teams of leather infantry and 2 teams of leather archers, and 1 team of white horse archers patrolling Longgang.
There is one team of rattan armored soldiers stationed to defend Haiyantian. There are five teams of light armored horse archers stationed in the acropolis (the acropolis has no walls).
After all the remaining troops were assembled, Xu Sheng was the general, Pang Tong was the staff officer, and Jia Xu followed to handle some shady matters. Li Tong led the Tengjia soldiers to garrison Longgang, Ganning Lu Meng garrisoned the city, and Taishi Ci Zhou Tai
When garrisoning the Dragon City, Zhuge Liang sat at the Dragon City base camp and coordinated the overall defense, while Hua Xinjushou coordinated the logistics.
This big move in Dragon City excited all the generals, but unfortunately only Xu Sheng was chosen to lead the army there.
After Zhou Yunfei made the arrangements, he looked up and saw that the sun had slowly risen from the east. He rubbed his aching eyes and stood up. As a result, Diao Chan put a hot towel on his face and said, "Call Zhao Yundian, Wei Ma, Chao Gao Shun."
