My Wife is a Counsel Chapter 114: Invaders

The gates of Chishui City were closed tightly, and machine guns, mortars, etc. were set up on the city walls.
In the turret, Lu Ming held a telescope and watched a black cavalry force in the distance galloping away, raising wind and dust.
Ma Quanyou's retreat direction should be towards the Baihai area. There is not only the Baihai, an inland sea, where water bandits were once rampant, but are now absorbed by Chen Xingchang's Baihai Kingdom, and further to the northwest are vast deserts, mountains and dense forests. Many foreign border residents live there, and it is difficult for our own aircraft or armored forces to enter the White Sea area.
However, at the same time, a group of Ma Quanyou returned to the prairie, and even came to Chishui City to show off their power.
Obviously, his return was not to really storm and recover Chishui City, but to declare his existence and let the tribesmen who were still loyal to Ma Quanyou know that this war was not over yet.
Most of the nomadic tribes in the steppe will cover or even help them fight against their own side.
The current situation is that we belong to the invaders and are huddled in a few fixed cities, while the prairie is dominated by the rebels.
The rebels received support from many nomadic tribes and launched a guerrilla war.
Not to mention that it will be dangerous for a small number of people to go to various settlements in the future. Even the supply lines of large settlements occupied by ourselves, such as Chishui City, will become key targets for the rebels.
In addition, there are nomadic tribes in the west, led by the Huangyuan tribe, who will also support Ma Quanyou's remaining tribes openly or covertly.
How do you feel that you are about to become an American emperor? It is obvious that the other side is vulnerable to a real attack, but because of the favorable location and the right people, why is it that you are being dragged into the quagmire of war?
Thinking about it, Lu Ming rubbed his nose, feeling a little weird.
……
In the snow-white dining room of Ma Quanyou Khan Palace, the walls are inlaid with layers of brilliant diamonds.
Of course, diamonds in this world are not that valuable, and they are not hyped as representing love or necessary for weddings.
But even if it is so, it is also an extremely precious decoration. It is used by Ma Quanyou in this way, which shows his extravagance.
The rectangular dining table with white tablecloth and cutlery are all made of pure gold.
Ma Quanchang sat beside him and carefully spoke to Lu Ming.
"It was decided the day before yesterday! I didn't expect that there was an emergency report. The remnants of Ma Quanyou's rebel army fled in the direction of Chishui. I have been busy fighting for the past two days and preparing for the worst. Commissioner Ma, don't be surprised!" Lu Ming said with a smile.
Ma Quanchang smiled quickly and said: "No, no."
Lu Ming looked at his watch. He, Ma Quanchang and Tuoba Khan decided to arrive at 12 noon. The queen of sweat has not come yet.
Her movements are not completely free and she is guarded by female agents from the Secret Bureau. However, if she deliberately wastes time, the female agents cannot force her to come. After all, they are asking her to talk about things, not to bring her to court.
There is a very elegant fountain flower bed outside the restaurant. Inside the fountain is a snow-white statue of the **** of the grassland holding a bow.
When Lu Ming looked at his watch again, a group of people turned around from behind the fountain statue. The leader was a gorgeous and noble-looking woman. She was wearing a snow-white tunic robe, with snow-white boots faintly exposed. She looked like a prairie woman. She has a rare pretty face with melon seeds, fair skin, and wears a golden crown inlaid with bright gems. There are two snow-white tassels hanging on both sides. The gorgeous clothes make the beauty more gorgeous, picturesque, noble and calm, very much like Lu Ming in the movies of his previous life. The queen of the grassland empire seen in the work.
When Ma Quanchang saw the visitor, he hesitated for a moment, then stood up and stood by with his hands down, as if a minister was welcoming the royal family.
Needless to say, the one who came was Empress Tuoba Khan.
Although she is in her early thirties, she got married at the age of twelve and has been married to Ma Quanyou for eighteen years. Ma Quanyou was nearly forty when he married her.
Lu Ming looked at her curiously, feeling like he had arrived in a classical grassland empire.
Tuoba Khan later came to the opposite side of the long table where Lu Ming was sitting. The maid helped her pull out the chair. Pay attention.
Lu Ming smiled and made a gesture, and the attendants brought a large plate of beef, mutton, fruits, etc.
"Mrs. Tuoba, this is the first time we meet. My name is Wang Pingbei."
Tuoba Khan glanced at Lu Ming with his wonderful eyes, and nodded gently, "Manager Wang, I don't know why you want me to be a prisoner here?"
Ma Quanchang sat down a little awkwardly and coughed, "After sweating, it's been a long time."
Tuoba Khan didn’t look at him at all and ignored his words.
Ma Quanchang looked ashamed and stopped talking.
Obviously, in Tuoba Lan's eyes, Ma Quanchang was a traitor who betrayed his ethnic group, and Ma Quanchang also felt guilty.
Lu Ming smiled: "Mrs. Tuoba, what do you think of the current order of the prairie?"
Tuoba Khan said calmly: "You have acted wantonly. Even if you are willing to leave the grassland now, you have also made an enemy for a thousand years. Unless you kill all the children of my grassland! But in this world, I forgive you. I don’t have the courage to do so.”
Lu Ming nodded and said: "As you said, Ma Quanyou can only massacre our city of Central Continent people. If we retaliate, will it be a heinous crime?"
Tuoba Khan said coldly: "Your Highness, you have different pursuits from my Great Khan. Didn't you attack him repeatedly for the wrong things I did, and even sentenced him in absentia for a terrible crime? ”
Lu Ming smiled: "It seems that you understand very well and know that we will never commit genocide. However, although the herdsmen today do not understand, our ministry is indeed here to liberate the grassland people. Now they I don’t understand, but I will understand gradually. I sweep through each settlement and distribute the property of the slave owners to the herdsmen of the settlement. Slowly spread the word. Do you think they will continue to misunderstand the new life we want to bring them? , will you go to hell? Or will you gradually understand that the new way of life we bring will be wonderful?"
Tuoba Khan said calmly: "Mr. Wang, just do it."
Lu Ming nodded, "I am about to use the Tuoba clan to perform an operation. The Tuoba clan is located in a place with rich water and grass and dense tribal settlements. It is not very far away from here. It is more than 500 miles away. Our armed aircraft can fly back and forth. , so every three days, I dispatch an air force to conduct a sweep. What do you think?"
Tuoba Lan’s pretty face changed color slightly.
Lu Ming smiled, blackmail was still effective. In fact, the oil that could be transported to Chishui today was so precious that he would not be willing to use a helicopter to raid a grassland settlement in three days.
"Let's see, Mrs. Tuoba, of course you can't be the master of your clan's affairs. I'm going to meet with the Tuoba clan leader. I can take him to Chishui by plane. I'll guarantee his safety. You can write a letter to persuade him. How about coming to Chishui?" After a pause, Lu Ming continued: "The Tuoba clan has always been content with pastoral duties. As long as the Tuoba clan leader is willing to be loyal to the principality, all conditions are easy to negotiate."
"I can't write it." Tuoba Lan stood up gracefully, "If there's nothing else, the sinful woman has resigned!"
It was said that "the sinful woman resigned", but without any etiquette, she turned around and walked outside.
Ma Quanchang was helpless and glanced at Lu Ming's face uneasily.
Lu Ming took out his knife and fork and started eating the meat, showing no emotion or joy.
