Chapter 1609: Invite them to dinner

When Ye Tianlong wore a mask and ran back to the Longmen Ancheng branch in a panic, Shangguan Xiaozhi was placing a one-person reception banquet at the dinner table.

"what happened?"

Shangguan Xiaozhi put down a portion of boiled cabbage, and then looked at Ye Tianlong who ran in with a smile: "Holded and killed?"

The indispensable Shangguan Xiaozhi is a rare piece of black clothes, black shirt, black skirt, and black bottoming socks with tight calves to outline the legs.

However, a layer of gauze was wrapped around the thigh, which seemed to be the wound she suffered when she was assassinated.

When she smiled at Ye Tianlong, it was very bright and tender, like a blooming black rose.

"Shangguan Sect Master, long time no see!"

Ye Tianlong looked at the charming and charming Shangguan Xiaozhi, strode forward, opened his arms and took her beautiful body into his arms, bursting with fragrance.

If too many people were watching, Ye Tianlong would want to kiss her lips.

Shangguan Xiaozhi's pretty face was a little rosy. Although she would not resist Ye Tianlong, there were still many people in the hall, which made her feel ashamed.

"It's really been a while since I saw it."

The roots of Shangguan Xiaozhi’s ears also showed a rouge color: "By the way, what happened? You are not a hero to save the United States?"

She obviously also knew what happened at the airport.

"Don't mention it."

Ye Tianlong looked behind him and replied with lingering fears: "I was saved, but I was treated as a pervert. It's not easy to be a good man these days."

He underestimated the bloodliness and courage of those college students. If he didn't rush into the disabled car and run away in time, he would be chased out of ten streets by them.

"It should be not easy to be a pervert who retreats all over. Your room is on the east side of the second floor, and you have all your clothes and socks ready."

Shangguan Xiaozhi laughed and said: "You go up and take a bath first, I will warm a pot of wine, and then come down to eat."

She didn't care too much about Ye Tianlong's hero saving the beauty, it was an episode for her, and it wouldn't be much help to the current situation.

Ye Tianlong nodded and let go of Shangguan Xiaozhi: "Okay, I will take a bath first."

Fifteen minutes later, Ye Tianlong reappeared in the dining room after taking a shower, looking at the four dishes and one soup on the table and smiling at Shangguan Xiaozhi:

"It's so simple? I thought you would make eight dishes and one soup even if you didn't have a full banquet."

Ye Tianlong pulled the chair away and sat down: "I came here to cheer, I'm going to be depressed if I entertain you like this."

Hearing Ye Tianlong's joking, Shangguan Xiaozhi took a jug of wine and poured Ye Tianlong a glass of daughter red, and smiled:

"Man and Han banquets are easy, and eight dishes and one soup are also simple, but they are always inferior to these four dishes and one soup, because I made it by myself."

She also pointed to the wine glass and smiled: "I personally warm the wine. Is it because Shangguan's red sleeves add fragrance to Ye Shao's appetite?"

Ye Tianlong's eyes flashed with playfulness: "You mean, Shangguan Sect Master is also a dish?"

"Not only can I eat the food and wine on the table, but I can also eat the Shangguan family master?"

He picked up the wine glass and played: "If that's the case, the food tonight is indeed sincere."

Shangguan Xiaozhi smiled: "Shangguan seems to have always been Ye Shao's mouth meat. You can eat it at any time, but you have to be willing to eat it."

Ye Tianlong's voice softened: "I like this."

"But you are right. Good things always stay behind. For a beautiful woman like you, take your time."

Then, he changed his conversation: "Now the situation is in a confrontation phase, do you have any ideas next?"

"There are three possibilities for the next situation."

Shangguan's expression of filial piety became solemn: "First, continue to stick to it in an all-round way and find a chance to break the game in the confrontation."

"Second, if I continue to fight in Ancheng according to the initial policy, then I must come up with a good strategy to break the situation, otherwise the entire army will be wiped out."

She expressed a touch of regret: "Third, throw away Ancheng, fully evacuate, and after consolidating the power of the southern cities, we will deploy elite soldiers to conquer Ancheng."

"The first situation requires a lot of money and manpower. After all, Ancheng is the opponent's site, and our supply is not as convenient as the Xuanjia Army."

"The stand-off cost will also be quite high."

She looked at Ye Tianlong and said, "I estimated that for four thousand people, the basic expenditure per day would be one million, not including logistics operations."

The cost of living per capita of two hundred and five is indeed not a small figure, but many people come here by air, and Ye Tianlong can understand the cost.

"The sum of various hidden costs, as well as the salaries of personnel and the apportionment of the expenses of the wounded, will cost at least two million a day."

Shangguan Xiaozhi gave a number: "Two million a day, 60 million a month, seven to eight billion in a year of confrontation."

"In addition to the official management of Ancheng, or the death of a brother during a fierce battle, one billion may not be able to stop."

She looked at Ye Tianlong and smiled helplessly: "An Ancheng costs one billion yuan in Longmen every year. Thinking about it, it feels a little awkward."

Ye Tianlong narrowed his eyes slightly, sipped in a mouthful of her daughter's red, and said, "Actually, one billion is not a big deal. What I'm afraid of is that he will be confronted a year later.

"That is not only burning money, but also exhausting and demoralizing. Protracted fighting is the most devastating."

His fingers rubbed the rim of the cup: "And Ancheng is the territory of the Xuanjia Army. Our endurance is not comparable to others."

Persistence can only be a temporary solution, not a long-term strategy.

"The first option is not advisable, and neither will the third option."

Shangguan Xiaozhi clamped a piece of ribs to Ye Tianlong, hesitated and spoke:

"Without a full evacuation and fighting again in the future, it seems that the cost is minimal and it can preserve strength, but it will be a big blow to the morale of the entire dragon gate."

"Now the Dragon Gate is sweeping the entire south. If the nail in Ancheng is not removed, the resistance in the other cities will become fierce."

"Even the gangsters that have been conquered may regenerate strangeness and become ready to move."

She told Ye Tianlong of her worries: "Guangcheng and Shencheng still have a lot of remnants of the 13 Leagues, and there is a high probability that we will be stabbed in the back."

Ye Tianlong smiled faintly: "A full evacuation will definitely not work, otherwise I won't show up in Ancheng, just let you come back."

Shangguan Xiaozhi's red lips lightly said: "The first and third options are not advisable, so only the second option remains."

"After a brief confrontation and recuperation, the two sides once again had a decisive victory, but this plan is also very risky."

"If we won, we certainly won Ancheng, but if we failed, our entire army was annihilated. It will also trigger the third plan."

She looked forward to Ye Tianlong: "So there must be feasible countermeasures to break the game."

Ye Tianlong suddenly asked: "How many people are there in the Xuanjia Army now?"

Shangguan Xiaozhi replied softly: "After reading the intelligence update half an hour ago, the Xuanjia Army now has as many as 7,000."

"It belongs to the Xuanjia army's direct line, there are almost 3,000 people, and the other 4,000 are small gangs and small associations."

"I heard that the eight veteran medium-sized gangs also intend to make alliances with the Xuanjia Army. Their number exceeds 10,000."

Shangguan Xiaozhi sighed quietly: "Once these people become cannon fodder for the Xuanjia Army, life in Longmen is estimated to be ten times harder than it is now."

"Send them an invitation."

Ye Tianlong said: "Tomorrow at noon, I will invite them to dinner."

Shangguan Xiaoyi was taken aback: "Invite them to eat? Will they come?"

Ye Tianlong smiled: "Make a good invitation, they will definitely come."
