"It’s not important who leads." "As long as you’re happy." The ever-reliable Lei Laomeng puffed out his chest: "Me? I can do as much as you want!" Breaking Army said: "Unfortunately, there are no beasts here." "Would you use camels and wild horses to charge the army?" Lei Laomeng 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, someone 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 Laomeng was stupefied. Where did that sharp-tongued and ruthless strategist go? Li Guanyi finished flipping through the records and smiled: "Then, the time is ripe." Changsun Wuchou was slightly startled, then realized something. His expression changed slightly. He stood up and stepped forward, bowing: "Here I am!" Li Guanyi smiled: "I came to the Western Regions on the invitation of Meng Erlang, intending to have you send a message directly to him. But after encountering these many events, it’s been a month or two now, it’s time 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 time to send him a reply." Li Guanyi wrote down the response in one stroke. 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 come to an agreement. Changsun Wuchou couldn’t help but think, if the second lady and the Lord were to marry. It would truly be a formidable alliance. The most update n0vels are published on ⓝovelFire.net Aqini is currently an isolated city, with nothing but this strategic location. In the chaotic Western Regions, it’s hard to grow stronger over time, like a dragon confined in a chessboard, whereas the second lady has everything except the city and righteousness. This relationship, formed two years ago, at this moment, is a masterstroke on the chessboard, breaking the predicament for both individuals. Li Guanyi smiled and said: "Tell Erlang, I haven’t seen him for a long time. We brothers haven’t met for over two years, and I’ve benefited a lot from him. This time, 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 someone 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 meeting a good brother at last. Even someone 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 message like a Flying Eagle..." Li Guanyi said: "This is important, go personally." "Oh, by the way, select some 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 proclaimed themselves kings, and at this time, 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 predicament, connecting chess pieces that have been isolated with their own arrangements into a grand trend, heading straight for the Duke Mansion, bypassing numerous obstacles set by the eldest and third young masters, reaching where Li Zhaowen was. 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 me waiting so long], and felt not just a twinge of heartache, but his stomach was starting to hurt. He took the letter from his bosom, holding it with both hands, solemnly: "The Lord’s letter is here!"
