Chulev II knew that he had to calm down at this moment, "How many troops did the Tang Empire bring this time? Why do the guard posts east of the Lena River have no ability to resist?"

Narmo smiled: "Vladimir took away all the firearms. The musketeers who originally fought guerrillas near the Lena River were only three to five hundred people. They were able to capture everything east of the Lena River overnight. Datang must be really angry this time."

Chulyov II sighed: "What I want is to be able to withstand the Tang Empire's army, at least until Grand Duke Vladimir returns."

Narmo said sadly: "I have hidden a lot of muskets, and the Ob River defense line is completely entrusted to me. I can hold it."

Before Chulev II could explore Narmo's abilities, Narmo said again: "But I have greater rights than the Grand Duke."

Narmo walked out of the palace, and the two people who were escorting him were one step behind him, walking cautiously.

"Calling all the generals together, I want to choose someone."

For half a day, almost all the generals of the Rakshasa Kingdom gathered in Narmo's workshop. Narmo looked at them: "I want to select an elite force. Obedience, loyalty, and ability are all indispensable. "

Narmo picked up a clay pot from the table nearby, lit the fuse and threw it towards the testing site.

"Oh!"

The dummies were torn apart where the pottery jar landed, and many wooden boards still had iron pieces and nails stuck in them.

"The next war will no longer be fought with swords and bloody bravery. As the first line of defense, I want you to set up various traps along the Ob River to stop the Tang Empire and slow down their advance."

"The second line of defense is on the west bank of the Ob River, equipped with crossbows and bows to kill enemy soldiers who forcefully cross the river."

"The third line of defense is to set up bunkers, underground tunnels and trenches behind the second line of defense. Once the opponent reaches the third line of defense, we will use these to deal with the enemy here."

Suddenly a voice interrupted Narmo's defense: "Who are you? Only Grand Duke Vladimir can coordinate and command all our generals."

Narmo looked at him with obscure eyes: "What's your name?"

"Vladimir Menolev"

Narmo slowly picked up the flintlock gun on the table, installed the flash cap in an orderly manner, and carefully pushed the fixed bullet to the bottom of the barrel.

After doing all this, Narmo aimed at little Vladimir and pulled the trigger, shooting the bullet straight into the face.

Everyone only saw the sound of the weapon in Narmo's hand, followed by some smoke, and Mennolev's face exploded, making it impossible to distinguish his true face.

"I am the newly appointed Imperial Advisor by Emperor Chulyov II. The reason why the Tang Empire attacked the Rakshasa Kingdom so crazily this time is largely because of Grand Duke Vladimir's fault."

"And I, National Preceptor Narmo, am here to save you!"

In the next few days, the Tianwei Army swept away the remaining troops in various parts of the Rakshasa Kingdom east of the Lena River and built frontline command posts and frontline camps.

Narmo gave daily speeches to the soldiers behind the Ob River defense line, and selected his favorite members of the musketry team. Soon the musketeer team reached a size of 2000 people.

Many of the muskets Narmo hid were of high quality, otherwise the Rakshasa Kingdom's ore reserves would not have bottomed out all at once.

What did Chulyov II do? He led his soldiers to imprison all the men, women, and children of the Vladimir family in the royal prison next to his palace.

Narmo paced in front of the musketeers: "You are the strongest firepower in the empire. We cannot let the enemy know our specific movements. After shooting, we can go to one side of the defense line at any time to assist ordinary soldiers."

"Unless I give a blocking order, the same gun is not allowed to fire more than three times in one place!"

Narmo wanted to create the illusion that the entire Ob River was full of firearms, so that he could delay Datang's attack to the greatest extent, and at least delay Datang's arrival at the second line of defense.

Completely different from the tense and solemn killings here in the Rakshasa Kingdom was the camp in Datang. Due to the lack of entertainment on the front line, the soldiers often gathered together to sing.

In particular, the Tianwei Army's military song "Man Jiang Hong" was the most popular among the soldiers, and was sung by almost the entire army for a while.

Yuchi Baoqi was welded to the chair in the telegraph room day by day, sitting there like a block.

Telegrams came from all over the Tang Dynasty. Military and non-military reports kept coming. Yuchi Baoqi was too busy to reply to them one by one. Some unimportant ones were not even answered at all.

Suddenly, Yuchi Baoqi saw one of the telegrams from Yuchishan. Brother Dashan's extension number was very familiar to Yuchi Baoqi and he spotted it at a glance.

"The warehouse guard was knocked unconscious and goods were stolen in the past few days. He didn't take the gold, but only food?"

"The results of changing and adding warehouse guards are always the same. Food will be lost every now and then."

Yuchi Baoqi used a telegraph to reply to Yuchishan: "Could one of our own people have done it?"

Yuchishan quickly replied: "I have suspected it and investigated it. Moreover, every household has a lot of surplus food, and there is even no shortage of meat. There is no need to steal those warehouse supplies."

Yuchi Baoqi thought for a long time: "Set a net trap. Don't be one of your own. If you are injured, you will have to take care of him."

There were no more military-related telegrams next. Yuchi Baoqi breathed a sigh of relief, took a sip of tea and continued to see if there was anything he needed to reply to.

The manager of the head office of Baoli Commercial Bank jointly stated: "Baoli Commercial Bank in Lingnan Road has an abnormal situation. It purchased a large amount of materials and almost drained the inventory of Baoli Commercial Bank in the next state capital of his original superior."

After reading it, Yuchi Baoqi directly checked the extension number of Lingnan Road and went over to ask: "What's going on here recently? Why does a place that doesn't give a shit suddenly need so much supplies? Are you being incited to rebel and endanger the enemy?"

Zhao Yuanshan was nodding and bargaining with someone inside the Lingnan branch. Suddenly the telegraph machine rang: "Sorry, I have a letter here. Please wait for me a moment."

After reading Yuchi Baoqi's report, Zhao Yuanshan was a little confused. Could it be that the letter of introduction and certificate that Li Feng showed him at the beginning were all fake? No, he really sees it!

Zhao Yuanshan responded to Yuchi Baoqi's telegram quickly, but this time he did not mention the lack of authority. Perhaps the head office was afraid that he would send another letter to His Majesty.

When Yuchi Baoqi learned that it was Li Feng who was throwing coins there, he directly replied to the head office, "Don't worry about it."

Yuchi Baoqi got up in a rare move and walked out of the telegraph room and found Li Jing's military tent: "Uncle, did you encounter any strange things when you were in the North?"

Li Jing was confused by the question: "What could be weird? Everything was fine all the way here? But what happened?"

Yuchi Baoqi shook his head and said thoughtfully: "It's okay, it's nothing serious. It's just that some supplies were lost over there in Beidi."
