While the Eight-Faced Buddha was directing his troops, Gao Ren was making a phone call to Hu Jing.
"Hello!"
Hearing the weariness in Hu Jing's alluring tone, Gao Ren immediately spoke with concern.
"Jing, haven't you been getting enough rest again?!"
Upon hearing Gao Ren's voice on the other end of the phone, Hu Jing's weariness vanished instantly.
"No way!"
"I'm very obedient, okay!"
"Ren-ge, you're back in Hong Kong Island?"
Hearing the anticipation in her voice, Gao Ren knew she wanted to come to Hong Kong Island with Su Muyan.
If it weren't for the fact that she and Su Muyan were the most crucial link in this plan,
Gao Ren naturally agreed to let the two of them come over.
"Jing, do something for me before you come over!"
Hu Jing asked seriously, "What is it?"
Gao Ren: "I just ordered the Eight-Faced Buddha to send 30,000 troops to Chiang Rai for joint military exercises."
"........"
After Gao Ren revealed his entire plan, Hu Jing's alluring face wore a cunning smile, like that of a fox.
"Ren-ge, do you mean you want Tai-huang to take the blame for killing Wales?"
Upon hearing that Hu Jing was much smarter than that old man, the Eight-Faced Buddha, Gao Ren couldn't help but think to himself, "..."
She truly is the woman I've set my sights on.
"That's right!"
"What you need to do is let the whole of Southeast Asia know that my goal is not a prince, but the position of Emperor!!"
Hu Jing said, "I understand!"
"I'll arrange it right away!"
After chatting for a few more minutes, Hu Jing left her own office and went to Su Muyan's office.
He proactively handed the phone to Su Muyan, who was still troubled by the economic development of Chiang Rai.
More than ten minutes later, the call ended.
Hu Jing picked up the financial report on the table and looked at it.
"Mu Yan, can Chiang Rai City afford the costs of this military exercise?"
Upon hearing this question, Su Muyan's mature and charming face showed a hint of seriousness before she spoke.
"The cost of these 50,000 troops, plus the ammunition, is conservatively estimated to be at least three billion US dollars!"
"With taxes and the casino's profits over this short period, we can certainly come up with the money!"
"But we have to slow down the construction of roads and water conservancy facilities!"
Upon hearing this, a ruthless glint appeared on Hu Jing's alluring face.
"These people have suffered for so long, it's okay if they suffer for a little longer!"
"Take out the money first, and use it to help Brother Ren kill that foreigner!"
Upon hearing this, Su Muyan nodded and then picked up the phone to begin mobilizing funds.
Hu Jing, on the other hand, called Li Yi to come over.
Meanwhile, the King Father was enjoying the graceful dance of young girls inside the Grand Palace in Bangkok.
Just as he was pondering which woman to have to sleep with that night,
Sudden,
A series of hurried footsteps interrupted his thoughts.
"Didn't I say that!"
"Aren't you allowed to disturb me when I'm appreciating art?!"
Upon entering and seeing the angry Emperor, the Secretary-General immediately knelt down and kowtowed.
"Your Majesty, I am truly sorry!"
"But I have some extremely urgent intelligence here!"
The Emperor was well aware that if anything went wrong with his kingdom, everything he was enjoying now would vanish like smoke.
Then, controlling his inner anger, he said...
"explain!"
The secretary-general breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the Emperor had not pursued the matter.
"Your Majesty, according to the information just received from the intelligence department,"
"Gao Ren's father-in-law, Eight-Faced Buddha, in the Golden Triangle, suddenly dispatched 30,000 fully armed troops southward under the guise of joint military exercises..."
Before the secretary-general could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the excited Emperor Taihuang.
"What did you say!!!!"
Seeing the excitement on the Emperor's face, the Secretary-General almost gritted his teeth and said,
"His Majesty!"
"This news is absolutely true,"
"The old man and the enemy have already reacted... by increasing the number of troops at the border..."
Upon hearing this news, the Emperor's previously pleasant mood vanished instantly.
He grabbed the gilded plate full of fruit in front of him and smashed it to the ground!
"What is that bastard Gao Ren trying to do?!"
"He swallowed up hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of my northern land, I accept it!!!"
"But it hasn't been that long, and he's already launching a massive southward offensive again!!!"
"Does he really think I'm a pushover, someone he can easily bully like a short, weak mule?!"
"Send troops! Send troops!"
"Not only will I utterly defeat him, I will also reclaim the territory he swallowed up!!!"
Seeing the Emperor blinded by rage, the Secretary-General immediately offered a reminder.
"Your Majesty, be careful, the walls may be overheard!"
As he said this, the secretary-general's eyes immediately glanced at the beautiful dancer kneeling on the ground beside him.
The Emperor wasn't stupid.
He knew the secretary-general meant he was worried that among these dancers might be spies planted by Gao Ren's woman, Hu Jing.
After all, Hu Jing already wielded considerable influence in Southeast Asia before becoming Gao Ren's woman.
Now they have the support of the north as well.
Who knows how many of her spies are inside her palace?
Thinking of this, the Emperor waved his hand, signaling them to leave. The Secretary-General immediately spoke up.
"His Majesty!"
"Now you need to know what this short mule Gao Ren is up to!"
"Such a large-scale troop deployment southward is definitely not a drill, nor is it an attempt to start a war with us!"
