Chapter 471 - A Vicious Plan
The King of Special Warfare
Chapter 471A Vicious Plan
Li Tianlan was still in a coma.
Thus, all of the major forces in Recchi City were still celebrating.
At this time, the entire Recchi City was plunged into an extremely strange atmosphere, just like the chaotic time when the old era ended and the new era had yet to begin. Conspiracies and cunningness, blood and betrayal, coercion and temptation, struggle and degradation, reason and madness, together with hesitation, greed, hypocrisy, and insidiousness all seemed to be gathered together.
Recchi City had been completely surrounded by the Dark World.
As one looked at Recchi City in the dark, he would find that everything seemed extremely naked.
At noon on August 11th.
As soon as the funeral of President Carlos of Wulan State was completed, Prime Minister Reeker, who temporarily served as the president, issued a speech that shocked the whole world.
In his speech, Prime Minister Reeker confirmed President Carlos’s contribution to Wulan State and expressed high respect and praise for what he had done.
The whole speech lasted 40 minutes.
In the first ten minutes, Prime Minister Reeker praised Carlos for his great achievements, and then he changed the topic. His expression was grim as he said that the country was in an unprecedented period of turmoil and Recchi City was facing huge threats. He stressed that at this time, Wulan State needed the help of friends.
When everyone just noticed something wrong, President Reeker had directly said that Zhongzhou State was Wulan State’s closest friend. When Wulan State encountered serious dangers and crises, as a friend, he asked for and demanded help from Zhongzhou State.
President Reeker sincerely invited Zhongzhou State to station troops in Recchi City, Wulan State, and it was best to be an elite force of more than 10,000 troops, to help Wulan State survive the crisis.
Prime Minister Reeker hoped that Zhongzhou State could let go of the misunderstanding before and look forward to the future. With his repeated sincere invitations, Lieutenant General Cheng Huining, commander of the Zhongzhou State Arctic Ocean Command, finally made a decision after asking for instructions from the Hidden Dragon Sea.
The Arctic Ocean Command was willing to send an elite division to enter Wulan State to help it overcome difficulties.
Early morning on August 12th.
On the surface, it was a division of the Arctic Ocean Command, but in fact, the 10,000 elites of the Snowdance Corps had already arrived outside Recchi City.
At this point, dozens of forces, such as the Heroes’ Club, Fantasy World, Men in Black, the Vatican, and the Dark Knights, had gathered in Recchi City.
As soon as the Snowdance Corps arrived outside Recchi City, the city gates were opened, bands gathered in the city, and the sound of gun salutes rang. Prime Minister Reeker went out of the gates to receive the Snowdance Corps. The road was lined with cheering crowds. It all looked as if people were welcoming the hero who returned home in triumph.
The Snowdance Corps was temporarily stationed on the square outside the Office of the President.
Prime Minister Reeker personally urged the chancellor of the exchequer to appropriate the money, planning to build a military base that could accommodate 20,000 people outside Recchi City.
This move clearly showed that it was possible for Zhongzhou State to continue to send more troops to Wulan State in the future.
The square in front of the Office of the President became the temporary station of the Snowdance Corps.
There were 5,000 troops from the Snowdance Corps who were the first ones to arrive in Wulan State.
But in the end, there were less than 2,600 left.
Among them, 2,000 were heavily-armed troops equipped with the most advanced weapons of Zhongzhou State.
Right now, there were 10,000 troops who had come to Wulan State.
Moreover, there were more than 6,000 heavily-armed troops!
The elite troops that had been armed to the teeth completely surrounded the Office of the President.
Decorated by the roaring main battle tanks, the fast-moving armored vehicles, and the silent yet uniform formations, the whole city seemed to be filled with a sense of might and toughness with the arrival of the 10,000 elites.
The Snowdance Corps patrolled around the Office of the President for 24 hours a day without giving up looking for any trace of doubt.
The reason was simple.
Their commander, also their marshal, was now in the Office of the President and was still unconscious.
The entire Dark World was closely watching the Snowdance Corps outside the Office of the President.
Maybe at first many people were contemptuous of the Snowdance Corps.
The Special Warfare Battalion, which was established in the decisive battle of Heaven Capital three years ago, tried to occupy East Island from three directions. On the battlefields of North America and Northern Europe, the Snowdance Corps did a good job, but on the battlefield of Eastern Europe, it was a young man who finally turned the tide. And because of this, the Snowdance Corps didn’t really have much weight in the Dark World.
But this time, the young man who rescued the Snowdance Corps with his own strength three years ago became the new commander. The entire Snowdance Corps seemed to glow with an incomparably brilliant light.
Within a day, two Invincible Realm experts died in the hands of Li Tianlan.
The 5,000 troops of the Snowdance Corps made rapid advances in two batches.
Nearly 3,000 people cut through the defense lines of three countries in one day.
The 3,000 troops won a landslide victory when facing 60,000 enemies. They pressed forward with an indomitable will, and those who stood in their way were killed!
A devil-like commander.
A devil-like corps.
After the battle, in the eyes of the Dark World, the entire Snowdance Corps had become the sturdiest troops of Zhongzhou State, with an indomitable force from top to bottom.
Today, the Snowdance Corps was stationed in front of the Office of the President with high-tech and advanced equipment, incredibly high morale, and cautious patrol squads.
All this surrounded the Office of the President.
The entire Office of the President had really become a tight dragnet.
That was the incomparable advantage that Zhongzhou State had achieved in Wulan State.
The Heroes’ Club, Men in Black, the Vatican, Fantasy World, and the Dark Knights all had Invincible Realm experts.
They were all mightier than Li Tianlan.
But even though Li Tianlan was in a coma, with more than 10,000 elites of the Snowdance Corps here, Zhongzhou State was the most powerful force in Wulan State.
Such advantages were likely to lead to a foregone conclusion.
But the super forces still did not give up.
Countless killers, businessmen, social butterflies, negotiators, private detectives, and senior agents were active in Recchi City, cozying up to high-level forces of Wulan State, while at the same time annihilating any threat. Recchi City had become a veritable city of darkness in just a few days.
The situation in Wulan State seemed to have gradually eased as the Snowdance Corps entered the city.
But people’s hearts had begun to be unstable as never before.
In the extreme chaos, rumors spread around, casting a layer of fog over the increasingly dark atmosphere of Recchi City.
Rumor had it that the Master of Samsara Palace didn’t die. The whole chaotic situation in Eastern Europe was all planned by the Samsara Palace. When all the forces were busy fighting for benefits, the Master of Samsara Palace was hiding in the dark, ready to give everyone a fatal blow at any time.
In fact, the Samsara Palace and the Wang family of Beihai had always had a confidential agreement. The Master of Samsara Palace actually came from Beihai and was Wang Tianzong’s confidante. Wang Tianzong’s move this time was acting. The truth was that the Samsara Palace was conspiring with the Wang family of Beihai to acquire benefits from Eastern Europe and even the whole of Europe.
It was not because of the interference of the Lin Clan that the Qin Clan helped the Snowdance Corps. In fact, the Qin Clan felt satisfied with the future potential of Li Tianlan and planned to unite with the Li family by marriage.
Li Tianlan had fought life-and-death battles with several Invincible Realm experts successively and had sustained irreversible injuries. He couldn’t reach the Invincible Realm in this lifetime. His foundation had been completely damaged, and he had become a good-for-nothing.
Li Tianlan had already died in the Office of the President, and the news was being blocked.
An organization named Men in Black was secretly conspiring with the Dark Knights to defeat Knights Templars of the Vatican.
Holy Virgin Angel of the Vatican, who traveled to Europe many years ago, had fallen in love with a top assassin in the Dark World and was now impure.
Everything was a conspiracy of Zhongzhou State. For Wulan State, Zhongzhou State was the real invader. The Jiang family of South America was completely innocent. They should be best friends of Wulan State.
Prime Minister Reeker had applied for citizenship in Zhongzhou State and had even sworn to join the Party…
Tostel, Rekvia’s new patriarch, was already in secret contact with the Shadow Throne and was preparing to expose the actions of the Snowdance Corps at the appropriate time.
One rumor after another swept across Recchi City and Wulan State like hurricanes and resounded throughout the Dark World.
These rumors appeared to be the result of the joint efforts of all parties.
Each force spread a rumor that was good for itself and had a hint of possibility if one thought about it.
The rumors were getting more and more intense and were becoming more and more exaggerated. The entire Recchi City had become completely chaotic.
August 17th.
It was Li Tianlan’s tenth day in a coma.
The rain in Eastern Europe was flying chaotically, and the air in Recchi City was gradually becoming bone-chilling cold.
In the already heated conference room in the Office of the President, Dongcheng Rushi quietly looked through the documents of Recchi City in recent days. The intelligence of the Arctic Ocean Command and the Samsara Palace had formed a huge database in the Office of the President. After layers of screening, there were still a lot of documents. Dongcheng Rushi looked at them quietly, her eyes clear, and she said nothing.
The top management of the Snowdance Corps in the conference room was studying all the things that had happened in the past few days.
Eastern Europe was in chaos.
Recchi City was even more chaotic.
In particular, the Office of the President was the liveliest place.
The president of the Heroes’ Club wanted to pay a visit to the Office of the President yesterday but was rejected.
Angel, the Holy Virgin of the Vatican, came to visit Li Tianlan but was also blocked by Dongcheng Rushi.
In recent days, more and more experts in the Dark World had been waiting for an opportunity to get close to the Office of the President.
The sound of gunfire from the Snowdance Corps had been heard several times, leaving several corpses of Thunder-shocking Realm experts, but most of them were unknown.
The rumors that went viral helped after all.
Many people were unable to verify the authenticity of some rumors.
But Li Tianlan was in a coma on the surface.
There were a lot of rumors about Li Tianlan, probably the most.
Rumor had it that he had lost all his foundation, that he had no hope of reaching the Invincible Realm, that he had become a vegetable, and that he had died.
Everyone was concerned about Li Tianlan’s physical condition because the Snowdance Corps’ deterrent force was simply too great.
In the Dark World, an Invincible Realm expert indeed represented the pinnacle.
However, on any battlefield, when tens of thousands of heavily-armed troops with heavy and light packs were mixed together and equipped with the most advanced weapons, they had the destructive power that could destroy everything.
The troops in the Snowdance Corps were elites of elites. Since they stayed in Recchi City, no one could relax easily. After all, 3,000 soldiers of the Snowdance Corps had won a landslide victory when confronting 60,000 enemies. Furthermore, they had no weapons of mass destruction when they were surrounded by heavy firepower.
How many troops could the 10,000 soldiers in the Snowdance Corps replace in other countries?
Given a conservative estimate, they were equivalent to 100,000 troops equipped with heavy firepower.
Under this powerful force, an Invincible Realm expert would be a superior even if he could struggle to survive under a hail of fire, not to mention to do anything.
Li Tianlan was undoubtedly the backbone of the Snowdance Corps.
All the rumors were designed by the major forces to demoralize the Snowdance Corps.
Once the Snowdance Corps was demoralized, the stable situation that Zhongzhou State had created would be unstable, and it would be an opportunity for anyone at that time.
“I still hold that suggestion.”
In the large conference room, Reeker, who also attended the meeting, said seriously, “Now, as long as we stabilize the situation, we can remain invincible. Everyone, no matter how rumors spread, they are just rumors. His Highness is seriously injured, but it won’t be a big deal. We don’t have to care what people say. As long as His Highness wakes up, all the rumors will disappear as soon as possible. As long as we hold our ground, we will not lose anything. I remember a saying in Zhongzhou State, ‘enduring for a while, you shall appease the dispute; Retreating a step, you will get a broadened mind’…”
Li Zonghu, who was sitting opposite Prime Minister Reeker, twitched his mouth subconsciously and sneered, “Endure? When did Thunderbolt Battalion endure? I don’t care about the rumors, but who can stand the contemptible scoundrel talking all the time? Now I have guns and men. In my opinion, we might as well expel them with force before His Highness wakes up. The Heroes’ Club and Men in Black are not worth mentioning. When my troops show up, the Heroes’ Club will be the Cowards’ Club!”
“Expel them with force?”
Drifting Cloud, the deputy commander of the Snowdance Corps, suddenly said, “Thunderbolt is indeed powerful, but our opponents are not weak. They are united. If several Invincible Realm experts were to attack forcibly, they might be able to destroy the formations of the Snowdance Corps. At that time, the Snowdance Corps would absolutely suffer great losses.”
“Loss? When did Thunderbolt fear that?”
Li Zonghu was dissatisfied.
“But such losses are meaningless.”
Reeker reached out and thumped the table. So far, he had fully sided with Zhongzhou State. Whether he liked it or not, the scene that he killed President Carlos had been stored in the top-secret file of Zhongzhou State. He had no choice but to lower his head to be a dog under Li Tianlan’s feet. If Zhongzhou State were to fail and leave Recchi City, his future would almost be at an end. And that was not the worst thing.
“Wulan State has witnessed the bravery of the Snowdance Corps, but the super forces in the Dark World are not Wulan State’s army. You are not afraid of loss. But if we fail to expel them with force, and the Battalion suffers heavy losses, how can you face His Highness when he wakes up without enough power?”
“What did you say?!”
Li Zonghu glared at Prime Minister Reeker.
Drifting Cloud said slowly, “Mr. Prime Minister makes sense. At least now, there are several Invincible Realm experts in Recchi City. We have nothing.”
Li Zonghu glanced at him and touched his big head. “Wang Tianzong is in Recchi City.”
Drifting Cloud was stunned. He took a deep look at Li Zonghu and couldn’t help laughing.
Li Zonghu was absolutely a valiant general. He would charge forward and never retreat. And such people were often particularly not good at scheming and plotting.
But it didn’t mean that Li Zonghu was stupid.
Wang Tianzong was still in Recchi City.
If the Snowdance Corps was determined to wipe out all the Martial Arts forces in Recchi City with full strength, what would Wang Tianzong do then?
He was the patriarch of Beihai and the Sword Emperor of Zhongzhou State.
The Snowdance Corps belonged to Li Tianlan as well as Zhongzhou State.
As the Sword Emperor of Zhongzhou State, when the corps of his country was at war, no matter how reluctant he was, he had no reason not to pull out his sword.
“A deadlock…” Li Zonghu whispered.
At this moment, there seemed to be something unusual in his eyes.
Cool Breeze and Drifting Cloud.
Everyone, including Prime Minister Reeker, was shocked.
“Deadlock?” Drifting Cloud murmured to himself.
“The major forces test each other and prefer to fight secretly than openly. Because whoever moves first is likely to be the loser. This truth is very strange because it is not for the weak, but for the strong. Wang Tianzong is very strong, so everyone is targeting him. If he takes action first, he will definitely be targeted by everyone.”
Li Zonghu said flatly, “He doesn’t want to make a move, then we can create an opportunity, forcing him to make a move.”
“We are the most elite army in Zhongzhou State. What Wang Tianzong wants to do if he doesn’t make a move when we fight against foreign forces? Dare he not strike?”
“But then…”
Drifting Cloud frowned.
“It’s worth it.”
Li Zonghu directly interrupted Drifting Cloud with a few words.
Dongcheng Rushi looked up at Li Zonghu and frowned slightly.
She had a pure temperament, but since she was a child, she had been trained as the future hostess of the Li family. How could she really not understand anything? The meaning expressed by Li Zonghu was obvious.
Li Tianlan now had a lot of chips in his hands.
For example, the Samsara Palace, the Shadow Sect, Sigh City, the Qin Clan, the Lin Clan, and even the Vatican were potential allies of Li Tianlan.
Even if Li Tianlan couldn’t use all their strength, his strength wouldn’t be inferior to that of any super force.
The Snowdance Corps was very powerful.
But no matter how powerful it was, it was a corps.
There were only soldiers in the corps.
When necessary, a soldier should do what he was supposed to do.
Li Zonghu intended to wipe out all the forces in Recchi City. Obviously, he regarded himself and the Snowdance Corps as abandoned pawns to force Wang Tianzong to take action.
At that time, the Snowdance Corps was destined to suffer heavy losses.
And if Wang Tianzong didn’t want to commit treason, he would definitely take action. He would definitely be targeted by all forces in the Dark World, so he would absolutely be injured, and the injured Wang Tianzong would surely hurt all the super forces badly.
By then, Li Tianlan would lose the Snowdance Corps, but the remaining chips in his hands were enough to deal with the rest of the dark forces.
The whole of Eastern Europe would fall into Li Tianlan’s hands and Zhongzhou State’s hands at the same time.
If this were to be the end of the Eastern European chaos, it might not be perfect, but no one would feel that it was a loss.
And the price…
Perhaps the price would be the lives of everyone in the entire Snowdance Corps, including Li Zonghu, except for the group of people who stayed in Eyme.
More than 10,000 people!
Dongcheng Rushi’s eyes became clearer and deeper.
The timing Li Zonghu chose was so perfect.
And his method was so cruel and resolute.
His style of risking his life was very similar to that of a person in her heart.
Dongcheng Rushi was deep in thought.
Uncle Li…
Could he be one of us?
This might be the best way to solve the Eastern European chaos.
But how could she bear it?
Everyone fell silent.
Even Cool Breeze and Drifting Cloud, the two deputy marshals, were intrigued.
This was a rare opportunity.
Even if this action would be criticized by others in the future, they wouldn’t blame Li Tianlan for that. After all, he was still in a coma, but the final result was that Li Tianlan could get all the benefits.
It was clear that he would suffer heavy losses when he lost the Snowdance Corps.
But it was nothing compared to what he would get after the plan was successful.
Most importantly, once Wang Tianzong and the Wang family of Beihai withdrew from the chaos in Eastern Europe, Li Tianlan would no longer have to worry about the great pressure from the Wang family of Beihai. His trip to Eastern Europe would turn into a good thing and would become the best stage for Li Tianlan to rise and build his foundation.
Who would not be tempted by such an opportunity?
To a certain extent, this evil plan was actually the civil strife of Zhongzhou State, but all of this was real and effective. As long as they could achieve their goal, who would care about this?
“No way.”
A soft voice suddenly sounded.
Everyone was stunned and turned around.
Dongcheng Rushi put down the documents in her hands and shook her head again. “No.”
“Young Madam.”
“Second Miss.”
In the meeting room, Li Wangsheng and Li Zonghu stood up at the same time.
Dongcheng Rushi said seriously, “We can’t do that.”
Li Wangsheng said in a confused tone, “This is the best chance.”
“But it’s also the most dangerous time.”
Dongcheng Rushi shot a thoughtful glance at Li Wangsheng.
The look in her eyes was a little special.
Li Wangsheng subconsciously turned his head.
“Why?”
Even Prime Minister Reeker, who had always sought stability, couldn’t help but ask.
If Li Zonghu’s plan could be realized, Wulan State could be stabilized as soon as possible.
That was what he needed most.
“Because there is a queen beside His Majesty the Sword Emperor.”
Dongcheng Rushi said calmly, “When all troops in the Snowdance Corps leave to wipe out the major forces, what about Tianlan if the Shadow Throne comes to attack the Office of the President?”
There was silence.
Only Dongcheng Rushi’s voice sounded. “Maybe your plan will be successful and His Majesty the Sword Emperor will be injured, but if something happens to Tianlan in the Office of the President, even if the Wang family of Beihai withdraws from Eastern Europe, will we win?”
Li Zonghu scratched his head, opened his mouth, and took a subconscious look at Li Wangsheng.
Dongcheng Rushi had no position in the Snowdance Corps.
But she was the most influential person aside from Li Tianlan to the top management present and even to all soldiers.
The Snowdance Corps had only 20,000 people.
And 15,000 of them were from the Border Control Corps.
Three years ago, they were the aces in the Thunderbolt Battalion of the Border Control Corps.
They were Dongcheng Wudi’s trusted subordinates.
And now, they were the trusted subordinates of Marshal Li Tianlan of the Snowdance Corps.
Dongcheng Rushi was Dongcheng Wudi’s daughter and Li Tianlan’s fiancée.
Her identity was more useful than any military rank.
Li Wangsheng coughed but frowned.
He glanced subconsciously at the corner.
In the corner was Qin Xilai, the Dark Swordmaster of Eastern Europe.
Qin Xilai was their important fighting force. If they were going to execute this plan, he was indispensable.
But at that time, the Office of the President would indeed lack defense.
If the Qin Clan were to guard the Office of the President with all their might, then perhaps they could…
A doorbell suddenly rang.
Reeker said in a deep voice, “Please come in.”
The Prime Minister’s secretary came in and said respectfully, “Mr. Prime Minister, a guest named Qin Weiyun is waiting outside the door. She wants to visit Mr. Qin Xilai.”
“Qin Weiyun?”
This name, which sounded familiar to everyone, stunned them all.
Qin Xilai raised his eyebrows in surprise and then laughed. “She’s my niece. Let her in.”
