Chapter 388 Nomination · Restart · Snowdance CorpsThe closer one got to the building of the Army Headquarters, the more desolate the streets in Youzhou.

The building of the Army Headquarters was located at No. 7 f.u.xing Road, Youzhou. It was not a busy area, but it was by no means remote.

After the location of the high-level meeting was finalized, the Police Department of Zhongzhou State deployed troops there overnight. f.u.xing Road entered the second-level alert six hours ago and the first-level alert three hours ago. It was completely cordoned off an hour ago. Under the traffic control, the whole road became wide and clean.

The black Mercedes crossed the square and stopped in front of the main entrance of the building of the Army Headquarters.

Li Tianlan got out of the car and opened the door for Dongcheng Wudi.

Dongcheng Wudi smiled, patted Li Tianlan on the shoulder, and whispered, “Don’t hurry back after the meeting is over. Since you are here, you must know some people, especially the people in this building. Although the Special Warfare System is independent of the Army Headquarters, the two systems have extremely frequent contacts on weekdays. No matter where the East Emperor Palace will be in the future, the support of the military is indispensable.”

Li Tianlan nodded and made a knowing voice, looking up at the majestic, large white building.

As he stood in front of the gate and looked at the building of the Army Headquarters, all he could see was the broad, heavy white building. This place didn’t have the air of power. And quietness remained alone.

It was so quiet that it seemed a bit solemn.

It was the first time since Li Tianlan entered the secular world that he had interacted with the core department of Zhongzhou State, and he would soon meet with the higher-ups of the entire Zhongzhou State.

Li Tianlan felt a little weird inside. His mind was complicated, and he was in a trance for a while.

Two middle-aged men, who were quite different in dress and temperament, quickly walked out of the building of the Army Headquarters.

The man who walked in the forefront was slightly older and seemed to be in his fifties. He was dressed in a military uniform, with two gold stars s.h.i.+ning on his shoulders. He was not a handsome general, and he looked even a little rustic, but his temperament was very clean and calm. He wore more than ten medals on his chest. In the morning, the medals and the general stars flashed together under the sun, looking a little weird.

The lieutenant general was followed by a middle-aged man in a black suit, with a thin figure and a calm expression. He followed the lieutenant general peacefully. He kept all the aura of his body perfectly in check and remained silent, like a shadow.

The light flashed in Li Tianlan’s pupils, and he looked at that man seriously.

That man was an expert.

That man’s aura was hidden so perfectly that it was difficult for Li Tianlan to judge the level of his strength, even with his current perception. He could only confirm that the man’s strength was definitely above the Thunder-shocking Realm.

“Minister.”

The lieutenant general took a look at Li Tianlan. He was obviously the trusted subordinate of Dongcheng Wudi. They knew each other so well that even the salute was somewhat casual.

“Good.”

Dongcheng Wudi looked at the neat medals on the chest of the lieutenant general and said with a chuckle, “Congratulations.”

“Thank you for your congratulation.”

The lieutenant general laughed somewhat meaningfully.

“Minister.”

The middle-aged man in a black suit came up and greeted him, neither superciliously nor obsequiously.

Dongcheng Wudi smiled and nodded. “Qingzhao, Qingfeng, let me introduce someone to you. Li Tianlan, the Young Governor of Sigh City and the first place in the maneuver of both academies, founded the East Emperor Palace.”

“Tianlan, this is Secretary-General Bai Qingzhao. After today, he’s a general.” Just call him Uncle Bai. This is Hua Qingfeng, the Minister of Ministry of Security and the leader of Shadow Sect.”

Knowing who his partner was, Li Tianlan held out his hand to Hua Qingfeng and said with a smile, “Minister Hua, I’ve long been looking forward to meeting you.”

There was nothing false about his words.

In the Special Warfare System of Zhongzhou State, the Shadow Sect could be said to be the only one to set up the organization inside the Hidden Dragon Sea, aside from Kunlun City. The Shadow Sect was an emerging force group in Zhongzhou State, with short rise time, but its status was vital. Hua Qingfeng separated himself from the old-brand Martial Arts group named Asura Path in Zhongzhou State and entered the Hidden Dragon Sea. At first, he was only the chief of the guards around a top big potato in Zhongzhou State. In just ten years, he established the Shadow Sect and controlled the Ministry of Security. He had become one of the top ten contemporary masters in Zhongzhou State twice in a row. Now the world-famous bodyguards in the Hidden Dragon Sea, whether they were elites from the Shadow Sect, could be said to be disciples of Hua Qingfeng, who could be regarded as the true king of bodyguards in Zhongzhou State.

Hua Qingfeng held Li Tianlan’s hand. His palm was rough and hard, like a stone.

He was a person who did not like smiling, but in the face of Li Tianlan, he still wore a smile on his face. “Your Highness, the president and I, too, watched the maneuver of the two academies in Star State. Your Highness’s strength is amazing.”

“I’m flattered,” Li Tianlan said with a smile, turning around and looking at Bai Qingzhao.

Secretary-General Bai Qingzhao also looked at Li Tianlan.

His eyes were extremely complicated.

“Uncle Bai.”

Li Tianlan held his hand entirely in the att.i.tude of a junior.

Bai Qingzhao smiled and grasped Li Tianlan’s hand hard, but his eyes fell on Dongcheng Wudi.

Dongcheng Wudi turned his eyes and looked at the Star Flag fluttering in front of the building of the Army Headquarters.

He wore a self-mocking smile.

Uncle Bai?

It was so f*cking harsh.

Bai Qingzhao said, “I’ll take you to the conference room.”

Hua Qingfeng said at the same time, “Minister, the president is waiting for you in the small conference room. Before the meeting officially starts, he wants to talk to you.”

Dongcheng Wudi nodded and glanced at Li Tianlan.

“I’ll just go with Uncle Bai. You don’t need to care about me, marshal.”

“Hmm,” Dongcheng Wudi said.

The four of them entered the building of the Army Headquarters at the same time and took two elevators.

Before entering the elevator, Hua Qingfeng seemed to think of something and looked at Bai Qingzhao with a smile, saying, “Secretary-General, congratulations.”

Dongcheng Wudi and Bai Qingzhao changed their faces at the same time.

It was really weird to speak this from the standpoint of Hua Qingfeng.

Hua Qingfeng’s face remained unchanged, and his smile was completely sincere.

“There’s nothing to congratulate me on.”

Bai Qingzhao shook his head. His original good mood seemed to turn sour.

Dongcheng Wudi glared at him quietly and turned into the elevator.

The elevator went up.

Li Tianlan and Bai Qingzhao, who met for the first time, were silent as they watched the numbers changing in the elevator.

“Uncle Bai is going to attend this meeting too?” Li Tianlan asked on his own initiative.

“Yeah.”

Bai Qingzhao smiled. “In addition to me, there are several old generals.”

Li Tianlan looked at the medals on his chest and suddenly thought of today.

August 1.

For soldiers in Zhongzhou State, this day was extremely important.

t.i.tles would be conferred on a group of military generals almost every year on this day.

Some of them were really promoted and put in important positions, while others retired honorably after their ranks were upgraded by one level.

Thinking of what Dongcheng Wudi said just now, Li Tianlan suddenly understood it.

Bai Qingzhao was now the deputy secretary-general of the Army Headquarters and had the rank of lieutenant general. He was undoubtedly one of the people who were going to be awarded the rank of general today. It was difficult to remove the word “deputy” of the t.i.tle deputy secretary-general now. But as Bai Qingzhao rose in rank, he also had a more significant bargaining chip to check and balance the secretary-general in the Special Warfare Group. Furthermore, the influence of Dongcheng Wudi in the building of the Army Headquarters would also expand again.

“Sorry,” w.a.n.g Tianzong said flatly.

Bai Qingzhao looked back in surprise at Li Tianlan.

He did not expect Li Tianlan to say sorry instead of congratulations.

He even thought he had heard it wrong.

“It’s all trivial.”

Bai Qingzhao looked at Li Tianlan for a while, then suddenly laughed.

He reached out and patted Li Tianlan on the shoulder, saying again, “It’s all trivial.”

Li Tianlan smiled and said nothing more.

How could this be a trivial matter?

After confirming the promotion of Bai Qingzhao today, Li Tianlan realized what this high-level meeting held in the building of the Army Headquarters today meant.

Dongcheng Wudi did not know in advance that he would be specially invited to the meeting.

But inviting him to the meeting perhaps was the intention of the Giant Group.

Li Tianlan’s eyes were complicated.

He knew exactly why he could show up here today. In addition to his relations.h.i.+p with the Samsara Palace, which was worthy of Zhongzhou State’s high-level attention, the Giant Group wanted to stand on the highest level and declare their close relations.h.i.+p with him.

Bai Qingzhao’s promotion was achieved at a price, especially after Dongcheng Wudi mobilized the army to intervene in the maneuver of the two academies imperiously.

All this could only explain one thing.

The deal between the Giant Group and Southeast Group had begun.

The content of the deal was hundreds of thousands of elite troops of the Border Control Corps!

From intention to the final decision, it only took one day for such a deal to be finalized since the maneuver was over.

The promotion of Bai Qingzhao expanded Dongcheng Wudi’s right to speak at the Army Headquarters. It, however, invisibly harmed the interests of the secretary-general of the Army Headquarters in the Special Warfare Group.

So in other words, the w.a.n.g family of Beihai had now given up its cooperation with Kunlun City and traded with the Dongcheng Clan.

The enemy-friend relations.h.i.+p changed drastically in a day, and it was too late for others to react.

The transformation of hundreds of thousands of troops, five elite troops, and countless positions couldn’t be done in one day.

Therefore, it was certain that before the completion of the transaction of the Border Control Corps, the w.a.n.g family of Beihai and the Dongcheng Clan would be in the honeymoon period, and the former would no longer be likely to cooperate with Kunlun City. At the same time, it meant that Li Tianlan’s situation was absolutely safe during the transaction.

After Bai Qingzhao and Dongcheng Wudi thought of Hua Qingfeng’s congratulations just now, their faces changed…

Hua Qingfeng was a cadre of the Academics. The Academics was definitely one of the beneficiaries of this transaction. His congratulations were indeed more ironic in this case, but it also meant that the Border Control Corps did have extraordinary significance for the Giant Group, especially for the Dongcheng Clan.

In the past two decades, the Border Control Corps was almost equivalent to the Dongcheng Clan, standing in Zhongzhou State and among the world’s super-rich families. From the fact that Dongcheng Wudi still served as the commander of the Border Control Corps since he came to Youzhou, everyone could see that Dongcheng Wudi didn’t want to give up the Border Control Corps at the very beginning.

The operating s.p.a.ce in it would be large, very large.

It was the second year that Dongcheng Wudi served as the commander of the Border Control Corps.

If Dongcheng Wudi did not want to let it go, he could finish this term and hand over this position. At that time, several commanders of the Border Control Corps would still be his men. At most, two of them would be transferred out, but that couldn’t affect the whole. By the time he retired after this term, the Dongcheng Clan could use the position he had left to exchange more things and a.s.sist a new commander of the Border Control Corps they supported. By then, the Dongcheng Clan would still be a super military giant.

It was the safest way.

But because of the final maneuver, Dongcheng Wudi had come this far.

There were pros and cons.

The Dongcheng Clan gave up the core Border Control Corps. In the next two terms, the influence of the Dongcheng Clan in the military would be expanded to the whole situation. But the dispersed power of the Dongcheng Clan would surely be suppressed when Dongcheng Wudi retired unless he could hold the entire Army Headquarters in his own hands.

Of course, there were solutions.

Dongcheng Wudi had about eight years left in office.

If the East Emperor Palace developed strong enough in these eight years to overthrow Kunlun City and Li Tianlan was not so ungrateful, then the Dongcheng Clan and even the three pillar-like families supporting him in the Giant Group would change.

The most complete transformation.

The Dongcheng Clan was undoubtedly betting. They now put all the bargaining chips on the future of Li Tianlan and had no way back.

They could have had the safest way.

But they made such a crazy choice.

Was it best to be safe?

Li Tianlan kept silent.

At least he knew that if Dongcheng Wudi had not mobilized the army to intervene in the maneuver of the two academies yesterday and had not taken the risk of going to war to save his life, the Dongcheng Clan could have been able to cope with it. Although they might have been under pressure, they would have taken the initiative at least.

Now, the initiative had become pa.s.siveness.

No other choice.

At this time, Li Tianlan didn’t how many people hated him to the bone in the Giant Group.

Was Bai Qingzhao one of them?

Li Tianlan didn’t know, but he really owed an apology to the Dongcheng Clan and the Giant Group because the resurgent Li family had no retreat.

Li Honghe was tenaciously defending his family.

And Li Tianlan was destined to be the Li family’s last chance.

The Dongcheng Clan now chose to share this risk with the Li family for his sake.

If Li Tianlan succeeded, the Dongcheng Clan would scale new heights.

But again, if Li Tianlan failed, the Dongcheng Clan would end up exceptionally miserably, and no one would come to a good end.

If these were trivial matters, what were the significant issues?

Li Tianlan looked at Bai Qingzhao’s somewhat rustic face.

He thought he would see a smile that was somewhat hypocritical and at least somewhat helpless.

But in his sight, the smile of Bai Qingzhao was not forced. It was peaceful.

“I’m telling the truth.”

Bai Qingzhao laughed softly. “I don’t mind the choice of Wudi. The Bai family doesn’t, either. I even think it’s his most correct choice.”

The corner of Li Tianlan’s mouth moved, and just when he wanted to speak, the elevator had made a crisp sound.

The elevator doors opened to both sides.

“Go to the meeting first.”

Bai Qingzhao said, “After the meeting, we have plenty of time to talk, and then let Wudi take you to your home.”

The big conference room in the building of the Army Headquarters was really s.p.a.cious.

The lights were on in the conference room, which covered an area of more than 1,000 square meters. The orange light was not dazzling, but it shone in every corner of the conference room. The long conference table was clean and elegant, and there were flowers in the center. The brightly colored model of the Star Flag was extraordinarily delicate and was placed in front of the flowers. Two rows of comfortable and wide leather sofas were placed around the conference table. The sofas were so high that the atmosphere looked solemn.

The conference room was flanked by symmetrical indoor fountains. The sound of flowing water was pleasing to the ear and clear. The walls were covered with many photographs, including those of all previous presidents, standing ministers of the Army Headquarters, outstanding generals, fearless martyrs, and heroes of great military exploit of Zhongzhou State.

Li Tianlan even saw more than one photo of his grandpa.

There were still fifteen minutes to go before the meeting began.

Several members of the Decision Making Committee who had come from different places overnight had already taken their seats in advance.

Li Tianlan had met two of them.

Zhong Yongming, the top leader of Huating.

Ye Dongsheng, the deputy minister of the Army Headquarters and chief of staff, known as the G.o.d of Army of Zhongzhou State.

Li Tianlan was not familiar with the others.

The meeting was confidential. There were no secretaries or staff in the conference room. Bai Qingzhao took Li Tianlan around the conference room and introduced them to him one by one. In such a short time, they couldn’t get that familiar with each other. Li Tianlan greeted the several deputy ministers of the Cabinet, two deputy ministers of the Army Headquarters, the top leaders of Nanyue, Huating, Beijiang, and the southwest.

Li Tianlan called them by their t.i.tles.

No matter what these big shots, who could be regarded as leaders in Zhongzhou State, thought, they could at least be polite on the surface. Except for Zhong Yongming, who held a grudge against Li Tianlan, called him Young Highness tepidly, everyone else was more polite, calling him His Highness. It sounded pleasing to the ear.

The two walked around the conference room, and it was not until the end that Bai Qingzhao took Li Tianlan to an old man who was closer to the host seat.

The old man was dressed in a Chinese tunic suit that was out of keeping with the sumptuousness of the conference room. His face was slightly dark, and he looked like an old farmer who dedicated his whole life to the yellow earth.

When Li Tianlan was looking at him, he was also observing Li Tianlan. There was imperceptible sharpness in his slightly clouded eyes.

Bai Qingzhao solemnly introduced, “This is Secretary Bai of Youzhou.”

Li Tianlan couldn’t help but glance at Bai Qingzhao. If the information he had was correct, Secretary Bai in front of him was Bai Qingzhao’s biological father. Bai Qingzhao’s formal introduction to his father’s post made Li Tianlan uncomfortable.

“Secretary Bai.”

Li Tianlan bent down slightly and stretched out his hand.

“Welcome back to Youzhou.”

Bai Zhanfang, the top leader of Youzhou, who was now the oldest and most senior among the higher-ups, shook hands with Li Tianlan. He looked at Li Tianlan and calmly said, “Come to my house sometime.”

Li Tianlan nodded.

Bai Zhanfang reached out and pointed at the peripheral sofas. “Sit there.”

The sofas around the conference table were naturally reserved for the higher-ups.

Those who were specially invited to the high-level meeting usually sit on the periphery.

Bai Qingzhao and Li Tianlan took their seats at random.

An old man, who looked very young but actually was as old as Bai Zhanfang, entered the conference room with a smile. There was a calm smile on his face, which was august and square. He looked around the conference room and then fixed his eyes on Li Tianlan. His smile grew broader.

Li Tianlan, who had just sat down, stood up again, and his mouth moved. Thinking of the seriousness with which Bai Qingzhao introduced Bai Zhanfang on such an occasion, he changed his address to him and said with a smile, “Prime Minister Wu.”

Wu Zhengmin, the last deputy prime minister in the Cabinet, nodded and came over to sit casually next to Li Tianlan.

He was one of the deputy prime ministers of the Cabinet and could partic.i.p.ate in high-level meetings, but he had not yet entered the Decision Making Committee. During these months of transition, he had always insisted on sitting here.

In more than 20 years since the collapse of the Li family, Wu Zhengmin was able to occupy Jiangzhe steadily. In addition to his boldness to fight battles of wits and courage with other factions, he followed the rules and never created difficulties for others, which were the main reasons for the stability in his career.

Wu Zhengmin glanced at Bai Qingzhao and said with a smile, “Qingzhao, congratulations.”

Bai Qingzhao shook his head with a bitter smile. “Prime Minister Wu, you know what’s going on here. Your congratulations sound too stiff.”

“Not stiff at all.”

Wu Zhengmin smiled and said, “In my opinion, it is just right. Zhanfang is about the same age as me. You can go further in your career now, and he can take comfort in it.”

Bai Qingzhao was surprised and looked at his father’s back.

Li Tianlan, however, glanced at Wu Zhengmin.

Bai Zhanfang should have long retired given his age. After this term, he would definitely retire. Bai Qingzhao now took advantage of the situation to go further in his career. When Bai Zhanfang retired, the Giant Group completely could use this as a reason to promote Bai Qingqian and Bai Zhanfang together.

For the time being, Bai Qingqian had a hard time making progress. But as long as Bai Qingzhao could become the secretary-general of the Army Headquarters smoothly, the Bai family’s status was still unshakable.

The Dongcheng Clan bet the future on him.

The Bai and Zou families tied the future with the Dongcheng Clan.

Feeling the harmonious relations.h.i.+p between Wu Zhengmin and Bai Qingzhao, Li Tianlan suddenly found himself out of breath.

Wu Zhengmin glanced at Li Tianlan, who had a grave face, and suddenly said with a smile, “Today’s meeting doesn’t have much to do with you, Tianlan. It focuses on the Samsara Palace. Remember, don’t make a casual statement.”

Li Tianlan nodded silently.

6:25 a.m.

Senators of Zhongzhou State stepped into the meeting room in succession.

At about half-past six, the faces that Li Tianlan often saw on the network news broadcast of Zhongzhou State began to appear.

It was just that the way they appeared was extremely bizarre.

Li Tianlan wasn’t the only one.

Everyone thought it was weird.

Two councilors, namely Chen Fangqing, the prime minister of Zhongzhou State, and Guo Wentian, the chairman of the National a.s.sembly, took the lead into the meeting room. They talked all the way, looking grave.

They were two flags of the Prince Group today.

Then, Zou Mulin, the chairman of the Zhongzhou Political Consultative Conference, walked into the conference room silently and had brief eye contact with Bai Zhanfang, the top leader of Youzhou.

Before Dongcheng Wudi entered Youzhou and became a councilor, Chairman Zou Mulin had been the backbone of the Giant Group.

Zhou Yunhai, the minister of the Ministry of Politics and Law, came in silently and sat in his place. After greeting the others, he drank tea in silence, as if it were none of his business.

The North Group could be said to be the weakest among the Six. In times of sensitivity, they generally tended to stay neutral.

After that, Gu Xingyun, G.o.d of War of Zhongzhou State and the leader of the Special Warfare Group, who was pale but with a forced smile, came in. He looked straight ahead and didn’t even look at Li Tianlan.

Three magnates who were whispering walked into the meeting room together after Gu Xingyun.

Everyone stood up.

Li Huacheng, the president of Zhongzhou State.

Dongcheng Wudi, the standing minister of the Army Headquarters.

Hua Zhengyang, the secondary prime minister of Zhongzhou State.

Two pillars from the Academics walked into the conference room at the same time as the leader of the Giant Group.

President Li Huacheng smiled calmly and waved his hand, motioning everyone to sit down. His pace was stable, and he took his place at the head of the table. He glanced around and whispered, “There are still a few comrades who have not arrived yet. Let’s wait for a while.”

The meeting room was silent, and the atmosphere was oppressive and solemn.

Today’s meeting was no picnic.

Neither the attack on the Eyme garrison nor the changes inside the Army Headquarters in Zhongzhou State were easy subjects.

Li Huacheng watched each member in the conference room quietly, drinking tea.

6:30 a.m.

The door of the conference room was pushed open again.

With the exception of a few councilors, almost everyone stood up again.

When Li Huacheng came in, they called him president.

And they called the one who stepped into the venue at the last second His Majesty.

Only two people around the world had such a t.i.tle; one in the Dark World and the other in Zhongzhou State.

w.a.n.g Tianzong, the Sword Emperor of Zhongzhou State.

Li Tianlan watched w.a.n.g Tianzong’s eternally calm face quietly.

Four people walked into the meeting room.

w.a.n.g Tianzong walked in the front.

The other two magnates of Zhongzhou State stood by his two sides.

They were the two leaders of the Southeast Group.

Ji Wenzhang, the minister of the Ministry of Supervision of Zhongzhou State.

Vice President Wan Qingyun.

Behind the two councilors was Dijiang, the disciple of the Sword Emperor.

Nine councilors.

A G.o.d of War of the state.

All senators and specially invited personnel were here.

Dijiang glanced at Li Tianlan and sat down nearby.

w.a.n.g Tianzong didn’t come but sat down directly at the other end of the conference table, opposite Li Huacheng.

President and the Sword Emperor were at both ends of the long conference table.

On both sides of the table were councilors and senators.

There were flowers in the middle of the conference table. The Sword Emperor and the president were sitting opposite each other. Seen from Li Tianlan’s position, it was difficult for anyone to distinguish which one was the host seat.

“Sorry,” w.a.n.g Tianzong said flatly.

“I was delayed on the way.”

“Understandable.”

Li Huacheng nodded and said calmly, “Everyone is here, and there is no need to talk nonsense. We are pressed for time. Now start connecting.” …

Dongcheng Wudi stood up expressionlessly, turning on the two screens in the conference room.

The two screens lit up at the same time, ensuring that everyone sitting in different positions could see the contents on the screens.

On the screen was a communication request.

The communication was soon put through.

It was early in the morning in Zhongzhou State, while the other end of the screens seemed to be at dusk.

The sun was still setting on the horizon.

On the screens were flames, large pieces of wreckage, countless people who hurried along carrying stretchers, and some doctors in white coats who shuttled back and forth. Shouts, shrieks, and expletives could be heard. The image appeared to be of a military base, but the entire base had been destroyed out of shape at this point, and countless campsites had utterly collapsed. Zhongzhou soldiers in military uniforms were patrolling in a daze. Only the Star Flag of Zhongzhou State was still fluttering in the wind.

“It is two o ‘clock in the morning at Eyme in the polar day. w.a.n.g Qianchong, Commander of the Arctic Ocean Command of Zhongzhou State, reports to the Decision Making Committee.”

A middle-aged man in the general’s uniform appeared on the screens. His face was somewhat dirty, and he looked a little tired.

“w.a.n.g Tianzong’s cousin, the one with a close relations.h.i.+p,” Bai Qingzhao explained quietly.

“Comrade Qianchong, how is the situation at the garrison base?” Li Huacheng asked in a calm tone.

“It can’t get any worse,” w.a.n.g Qianchong said without hesitation, with evident anger on his face.

“President, I arrived at the Eyme garrison base two hours ago. At present, many of our soldiers are still trapped in ruins, waiting to be rescued. We’ve suffered heavy causalities, and the current situation in Eastern Europe is very chaotic. I would like to report to the Decision Making Committee in detail, but I want to ask for reinforcements from home first. The sooner, the better.”

Li Huacheng meditated for a while and asked in a deep voice, “What reinforcements do you want?”

“The Jiang family of South America, Knights Templars, the Heroes’ Club… Now almost all the superpowers of the Dark World are gathering in Europe. “My soldiers have a hard time defeating their experts. The elite of the Special Warfare System at home should be sent to stabilize the situation. President, if possible, I recommend restarting the Snowdance Corps.”

w.a.n.g Qianchong stared into Li Huacheng’s eyes through the screen.

Restart the Snowdance Corps!

Everyone was stunned.

Li Huacheng even took a quick look at w.a.n.g Tianzong.

Snowdance Corps.

It was a special operations corps of Zhongzhou State that set off a decisive battle in Heaven Capital three years ago. If the decisive battle in Heaven Capital had been successful, the Snowdance Corps would have occupied the right to speak in the Dark World of East Island and have become the most powerful force group in that Dark World.

Nonetheless, the ultimate winner of the decisive battle in Heaven Capital was the Purgatory of Heaven Capital.

The Snowdance Corps had been dissolved after the decisive battle in Heaven Capital. Although the first marshal Gu Qianchuan was still the marshal, he had no actual post.

Restart Snowdance Corps?

w.a.n.g Qianchong was part of the core forces of the Southeast Group.

He now suddenly made such a sensitive proposal, and no one believed it would be his own idea.

Li Huacheng was not alone.

Almost everyone thought of w.a.n.g Tianzong naturally.

Thinking of w.a.n.g Tianzong, they naturally thought of Dijiang brought by w.a.n.g Tianzong.

A 36-year-old expert with the combat power of the Invincible Realm and Double Thunder Veins.

He had fought enemies from the Purgatory of Heaven Capital in Tiannan for three years without being the underdog.

There was no doubt that if the Snowdance Corps was restarted, Dijiang would be the most suitable person for the post of marshal. It was also a nice route to overgild him.

After the Snowdance Corps entered Eastern Europe and the situation stabilized, Dijiang could be transferred back as soon as possible.

At that time, if he replaced Dongcheng Wudi and entered the Decision Making Committee to become a councilor and rule over the Border Control Corps, he would have no problem in terms of prestige.

The Eyme garrison came under attack.

It was tantamount to giving Zhongzhou State a reason to intervene in the situation in Eastern Europe.

But at the same time, it was tantamount to giving w.a.n.g Tianzong a chance to pave the way for his disciple.

Li Huacheng gave Dongcheng Wudi a glance.

Dongcheng Wudi was also a little surprised.

He thought he was going to give up his position as the commander of the Border Control Corps at today’s meeting. For now, it looked like it could be delayed for a while.

“Tianzong, what do you think?” Li Huacheng asked w.a.n.g Tianzong directly when he saw w.a.n.g Tianzong withhold his opinions.

w.a.n.g Tianzong spoke indifferently, “I agree with Commander w.a.n.g Qianchong. If the chaos in Eastern Europe is out of control, the north of our country, not only Beihai Province but also the Northeast, will suffer a severe impact. It is happening at our doorstep, and Zhongzhou State must show its att.i.tude. The Snowdance Corps is a special operations corps, suitable to go to Snow Country.”

A strange light flashed through his eyes.

“Then who is marshal?”

Li Huacheng looked at w.a.n.g Tianzong. But he was observing Dijiang out of the corner of his eye.

Dijiang was indeed eligible to go on an expedition on behalf of Zhongzhou State.

“I have a nomination. I think he is the best candidate for the new marshal of the Snowdance Corps. I hope that the Decision Making Committee can seriously consider it,” w.a.n.g Tianzong said.

Although Li Huacheng already knew who that person was, he still asked, “Who?”

w.a.n.g Tianzong lowered his eyelids and calmly said, “Li Tianlan.”

Hmm?

Who?

The faces of Dongcheng Wudi and Gu Xingyun changed dramatically, and they said almost in unison, “No!”
