"This strength is truly terrifying, and bullets seem to have little effect on them. I can't explain this situation, but I suspect that the Great Han Empire has mastered some kind of technology to make super bulletproof vests."
"We all understand their fighting style: they charge headlong into battle, relying on their absolute combat power and superiority, as well as the firepower of their weapons to win. Apart from this surprise attack, they basically have no tactics to speak of."
Upon hearing this, everyone's mood became heavy.
The Han Empire's army is so powerful, it's hard to say whether that's a good thing or a bad thing for their Dragon Kingdom.
The Dragon Kingdom Army Commander, in particular, looked unusually serious at this moment.
Based on what Zhong Zhenguo just said, and the information he had gathered about the Great Han Empire's army, it was clear that the Great Han Empire's army combat strength indeed included their Dragon Kingdom's army.
If he were to command a war and encounter the army of the Han Empire head-on, he would not be confident of victory.
In fact, judging from the combat strength of the Han Empire's army, they are likely to suffer a crushing defeat!
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt, so he voiced his thoughts.
"Eight elders on each side, the growth rate of the Great Han Empire is simply too fast, especially their army's combat capabilities, which are simply terrifying. If one day in the future the Great Han Empire becomes an enemy of our Dragon Kingdom, how should we deal with it?"
After the Army Commander-in-Chief finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
Their mood became heavy.
Yes!
The Great Han Empire is currently dealing with Myanmar, but everyone can see that Qi Tongwei's ambitions are extraordinary.
They are currently dealing with Myanmar, but no one can say for sure whether they will turn their attention to China in the future!
Just when everyone was extremely worried, Zhong Zhenguo spoke up.
"On this point, I think you don't need to worry too much."
Zhong Zhenguo said in a deep voice.
"The Great Han Empire was established in northern Myanmar. Qi Tongwei's ambition is indeed great, but his focus is now entirely on Southeast Asia, and there is no conflict or contradiction with our Dragon Kingdom."
"Moreover, after these friendly exchanges and interactions between the two sides, we have now basically established a fairly good partnership. He also personally promised that as long as our Dragon Kingdom maintains friendly relations with them, they will never turn their spear against us."
“As you all know, he was once a citizen of the Dragon Kingdom, and as the emperor of the Great Han Empire, his words are naturally law. I believe him.”
Upon hearing this, everyone's worries disappeared.
They also felt that Zhong Zhenguo's words made sense. Since Qi Tongwei had already made a promise, all they needed to do was maintain friendly relations with the Great Han Empire.
In their view, no matter how ambitious Qi Tongwei was, he couldn't possibly be thinking about ruling the world, right?
Because that would be absolutely insane!
Even if Qi Tongwei has the ability to unify the world, what would happen after unification?
Even if he had three heads and six arms, he couldn't manage such a large country, right?
As for fighting the Han Empire, after witnessing the combat strength of the Han Empire's army, they really didn't have that confidence.
Many people even understood that if they were to actually confront the Han Empire one day, their chances of winning would be slim.
Because the army of the Han Empire was simply too powerful!
With the Great Han Empire in power, Southeast Asia is bound to undergo a major transformation!
While Zhong Zhenguo and other high-ranking officials were discussing and studying their attitude towards the Han Empire, a new wave of public opinion was also rising in China.
"Hey, have you heard? The Great Han Empire and the Burmese army fought another battle, and it was a resounding victory. They've now occupied half of Burma's territory. Apparently, there are no more scams in northern Burma now, and many people have been released unconditionally!"
"Brother, you're really out of touch. We've known about this for a while now, and you're only bringing it up now? That's a really slow reaction."
"That's right, but on another note, Emperor Qi is indeed awesome. The military strength of the Great Han Empire is truly too strong!"
"At this rate, it probably won't be long before the entire Burma Kingdom is overthrown by the Great Han Empire. Then, under the rule of the Great Han Empire, we'll no longer have to worry about being scammed or cheated."
"Hehe, to be honest, I've already prepared the money. After the Great Han Empire destroys Myanmar, I'll take a nice trip to the Great Han Empire with my girlfriend. Of course, if I can bump into Emperor Qi by chance, that would be even better."
……
Handong Province.
Zhong Xiaoai sat on the sofa, engrossed in reading a newspaper.
The newspapers were full of articles about Qi Tongwei.
From Qi Tongwei's initial escape to Myanmar after being wanted by the authorities, to his establishment of the Great Han Empire and becoming the ruler of a country, and now to his full-scale war with the Myanmar army and his occupation of half of Myanmar's territory!
She read all these stories very carefully.
In the past, she looked down on Qi Tongwei because she felt that her husband, Hou Liangping, was much better than Qi Tongwei, and that he was also a very upright and gentlemanly person.
But now, after reading about Qi Tongwei's deeds, she has begun to doubt her past thoughts.
Is Hou Liangping really better than Qi Tongwei?
Now, she can no longer give herself a definite answer!
Her feelings became even more complicated when she thought about what her father, Zhong Zhenguo, had said to her.
Even, a voice deep inside her told her...
Qi Tongwei is better than Hou Liangping!
For no apparent reason, she suddenly blushed!
She now also feels that Qi Tongwei is far superior to Hou Liangping!
Moreover, the other person seemed to possess a kind of magic that was deeply attracting her.
She already had this feeling when Qi Tongwei invited her and Hou Liangping to dinner.
However, due to her sense of shame and her responsibilities as a wife, she forcibly put these feelings out of her mind.
But now, that feeling has resurfaced in her heart and lingers for a long time.
Looking up at the marriage certificate hanging on the wall, Zhong Xiaoai suddenly sighed, her expression turning somewhat gloomy.
She originally thought that marrying Hou Liangping was a very happy thing.
But without comparison, there is no harm!
Especially after seeing the glamorous and charming Empress Reba, she suddenly felt a sense of weariness and dissatisfaction with her own marriage.
Hou Liangping's image in her mind has become less perfect than before.
She even wondered if she had been blind to have fallen for Hou Liangping.
"Ugh!"
"Is this my fate?"
In the empty, cramped room, Zhong Xiaoai let out a deep sigh.
……
Imperial City Airport.
Dilraba, dressed in a stylish outfit and wearing large sunglasses, got off the plane.
Two attractive women followed behind her; they were the maids that Qi Tongwei had arranged for her.
These two maids are no ordinary maids; they both possess the strength of ancient martial arts masters.
Although Reba is now a cultivator and doesn't need protection, she is still the imperial concubine of the Great Han Empire, and a certain amount of pomp and circumstance is still necessary.
Moreover, Reba does indeed need a few people to serve her.
Therefore, she did not refuse Qi Tongwei's kindness, and she specially brought the two of them with her when she came to China this time.
After practicing dual cultivation with Qi Tongwei, she understood that for a woman of her constitution, practicing dual cultivation with His Majesty would greatly benefit His Majesty's cultivation level.
Ever since she realized this, she had been planning to find more women with her physique for Qi Tongwei so that his cultivation could improve rapidly.
In this respect, she was different from other women; she wasn't jealous, but rather accepted the fact very generously.
It wasn't that she didn't love Qi Tongwei, but rather that she deeply understood that such a thing was inevitable.
Even if she gets jealous, it won't help.
Rather than doing that, it's better to accept it openly and honestly.
Besides, only when Qi Tongwei's cultivation improves can she rest easy and reap huge benefits.
She understood this simple principle very well.
So recently, she has personally taken charge, running between the Dragon Kingdom and the Great Han Empire, preparing to find several women with special physiques for Qi Tongwei to help him cultivate.
Qi Tongwei had already taught her how to identify special physiques, so this time she returned to the Dragon Kingdom with the purpose of finding a woman suitable for dual cultivation for Qi Tongwei.
Suddenly she thought of someone.
Li Qin!
099. Li Qin and Zhao Maimai become concubines, and Yang Mi volunteers to serve the emperor! (Please subscribe)
In her memory, Li Qin was very beautiful and had a great temperament. She was fair-skinned and beautiful, and might have a special constitution.
Therefore, she decided to go see Li Qin first.
If the other party has a special physique, she will do everything she can to persuade them to let Li Qin become Qi Tongwei's dual cultivation partner!
Before becoming Empress of the Great Han Dynasty, Dilraba and Li Qin were in frequent contact. Although they were not in the same agency, they had a fairly good relationship in private.
She called Li Qin and expressed her desire to meet him.
Li Qin was flattered and immediately agreed.
Now, Dilraba is no longer the big star she used to be; she's a woman of noble status, a concubine of the Han Dynasty.
Which of these female celebrities in the entertainment industry doesn't want to get involved with Dilraba now?
Li Qin was naturally more than happy to accept it.
Soon, the two met at the hotel.
"Hey, how come you look so unwell after only a few days?"
Looking at Li Qin's tired expression, Dilraba frowned and asked a question.
Li Qin has been filming recently, and her complexion was already poor due to the heavy workload and lack of rest. Her skin looked even more dull.
This contrasts sharply with Dilraba's glamorous and elegant demeanor.
Looking at the radiant and beautiful Reba, Li Qin suddenly felt a little inferior.
She gave a wry smile and told Reba the reason.
After hearing this, Dilraba also sighed.
She was once just like Li Qin; in the eyes of outsiders, they were high-profile superstars, darlings of the spotlight.
But only they themselves know the bitterness and unspeakable suffering they endured.
They are celebrities, but even top-tier actresses have to bow down to capital.
In the past, she was also arranged to appear on variety shows that she didn't want to be on, and even to film dramas that she didn't like to film. Without any background, she had no right to refuse.
Being a celebrity is indeed very hard!
When Reba thinks about the past, she feels very fortunate to have met Qi Tongwei.
Qi Tongwei changed her fate!
Regardless of what others think, she is completely devoted to Qi Tongwei!
Reba took Li Qin's hand and sat down next to her.
She looked at the other person and said in a deep voice.
"Hehe, are you really content to spend your whole life in mediocrity?"
"Or do you really enjoy being a celebrity?"
Upon hearing this, Li Qin appeared momentarily dazed.
She didn't know why Dilraba asked that question.
After a moment of silence, she gave a bitter laugh and said with a somewhat somber expression.
“Reba, I’m not as lucky as you. You’re able to become a concubine of the Great Han Empire and not have to worry about making a living.”
"You were a star once, so you should understand how tough our industry is. I don't like it either, but there's nothing I can do. Everyone has to make a living."
