Chapter 120 Zhao Yifan's Ruthlessness
An hour later, Zhao Yifan looked at Li Xiang, who was tidying herself up in front of the mirror, and said, "Now you should be at ease, right?"
"kindness"
While applying lipstick, Li Xiang looked at Zhao Yifan through the mirror and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, I'm the one who got the better deal. Don't worry, I'll definitely work hard for you."
As she spoke, Li Xiang seemed to remember something and said, "By the way, you want me to join your film company, but my current boss..."
"Don't worry, your current boss is no longer here, and this Grand World Dance Hall now belongs to me. Moreover, I can give it to you!"
Zhao Yifan walked behind Li Xiang, placed his hands on her shoulders, and gently massaged her somewhat thin shoulders.
Upon hearing this, Li Xiang's hand, which was applying lipstick, trembled slightly.
Perhaps because of that relationship, she seemed to show less reverence for Zhao Yifan.
However, Zhao Yifan's words just now reminded her of the fear of having her life controlled by the other party.
"I understand, thank you!"
Li Xiang gently rested her face on the back of Zhao Yifan's hand.
This woman was afraid of Zhao Yifan.
However, she knew very well that if she wanted to continue living, she had to rely on the man behind her.
……
"They've been gone for so long, aren't you worried?"
Duanmu Ying glanced at Zhao Yifan's room from time to time and said to the girls who were enjoying desserts.
She just couldn't understand why these women were so calm, even though they knew their husbands had brought other women into the room.
"Long? It's only been an hour, usually it takes much longer!"
Wei Shuyi looked at the watch Zhao Yifan had just given her on her wrist and said.
"Pfft, really?"
Duanmu Ying's eyes widened, and she said, "I'm a medical student, don't lie to me, how could it take that long?"
"Hehe, that's because you're not knowledgeable!"
Wei Shuyi chuckled, leaned closer to Duanmu Ying, and whispered, "Xiao Ying, tell us, how long does your husband usually last?"
Upon hearing this, Duanmu Ying blushed deeply. Of all these women, she was most afraid of this witch doctor, who dared to say anything outrageous.
"cough cough"
Mao Tongtong, who was standing to the side, finally couldn't stand it anymore. She coughed lightly to tell Wei Shuyi to behave herself and not to lose face for her husband in front of outsiders.
Just then, the door opened, and Zhao Yifan came out with Li Xiang.
Seeing Li Xiang's somewhat unnatural walking posture, the other girls, except for Duanmu Ying, seemed to understand something.
However, whether the other party has the opportunity to become their sister depends on Zhao Yifan's decision.
……
"A film company? What's that brat up to now?"
Upon receiving Zhao Yifan's message, Old Master Zhao looked puzzled.
However, after seeing Li Xiang's photo, Grandpa Zhao seemed to understand something.
"This brat, how come he hasn't learned any of my dedication?"
Although he complained inwardly, since it was the only son of the Zhao family who made the request, Old Master Zhao couldn't refuse.
Moreover, Old Master Zhao had already investigated and found that the film industry, as an emerging sector, had a very promising future. If managed well, it could bring great benefits to the Zhao family.
……
The affairs of the film company were left to his grandfather to handle, so Zhao Yifan didn't need to worry about them much.
What Zhao Yifan really needs to care about is the upcoming decisive battle!
The Great Xia army is on the verge of collapse!
Thanks to Zhao Yifan's intervention, the current situation has actually improved considerably.
The Young Marshal's army, with its complete structure, held almost one-sixth of the battlefield.
The Sichuan army received a large amount of supplies and performed even more bravely.
Under Duanmu Ying's full-fledged management, Jishetang greatly reduced the casualties of the Great Xia soldiers.
Finally, with almost the entire supernatural community of the Great Xia Dynasty mobilized, the supernatural beings of Sakurajima were almost completely wiped out.
However, even so, under the powerful firepower of Sakurajima, the Great Xia was still forced to retreat continuously.
More importantly, due to the huge casualties, people in Nanjing are already considering evacuation.
Zhao Yifan was also helpless about this.
After all, the only people he could influence were the Young Marshal's Army.
However, in order to prevent the Northeast from being completely occupied, the Young Marshal's army could not afford to expend all its forces here.
"Ugh--"
With a sigh, Zhao Yifan once again lamented that human strength has its limits.
"However, my father's friend is right. If you save the people but lose the land, you can save both; if you save the land but lose the people, you can lose both. Giving it to them is only temporary, but..."
His gaze turned cold; if the other party wanted to occupy this land, they would have to pay the corresponding price!
Zhao Yifan had obtained specific intelligence about the withdrawal of troops from the Nanjing direction from the young marshal, so he planned to use these last few days to give the enemy a hard blow.
Not long after, the young marshal was summoned by Zhang Ying.
"Brother-in-law, you were looking for me?"
Although the situation at the front was critical, the young marshal naturally did not hesitate to come when Zhao Yifan asked him to.
"Yes, I'm prepared to devour the entire fleet of Sakurajima!"
Zhao Yifan's words were earth-shattering.
To be honest, what the Great Xia region lacks most right now is not air power, but naval power.
Since the First Sino-Japanese War, the Great Xia Navy was almost completely wiped out. On the contrary, the Sakurajima Navy is now among the best in the world.
This time, in addition to land forces, the naval forces besieging Shanghai also brought great trouble to Great Xia.
On the other hand, the lack of naval power in the Great Xia region leaves it with virtually no chance of a counterattack.
Moreover, according to Zhao Yifan's understanding, in the ensuing war, the Sakurajima Navy also caused great trouble for Great Xia.
Therefore, Zhao Yifan planned to completely absorb this fleet of Sakurajima before making a complete withdrawal.
"Brother-in-law, is that even possible?"
The young marshal swallowed hard; he had always thought he was quite bold.
But now it seems, compared to my brother-in-law, what is he?
Even the guy in Nanjing probably wouldn't dare to dream of wiping out the entire Sakurajima fleet.
"Six, I'll need you to help me contact reinforcements from all sides."
Zhao Yifan said coldly, "I need you to launch a counterattack on Sakurajima's positions at all costs and buy me a day!"
Upon hearing this, the young marshal's face also showed a serious expression.
The current battles are mostly fought with Sakurajima attacking and Great Xia defending.
There's no way around it; the strength of both sides is what it is.
If they were to launch a counterattack on Sakurajima's positions, it would inevitably result in massive casualties.
"Brother-in-law, are you sure you want to do this?"
The young marshal asked again to confirm.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yifan patted the other person on the shoulder and said, "What? You don't want to devour that fleet?"
"miss you!"
The young marshal gritted his teeth and said, "I've been fed up with those lumps of iron for a while now. Brother-in-law, I'll stick with you. I'll take care of the arrangements for the other reinforcements. With the good stuff you provide, those generals won't hesitate."
Soon, the two discussed some more details, and before long, the young marshal left with a heavy heart.
A flicker of emotion crossed Zhao Yifan's eyes as he watched the young marshal's retreating figure.
He knew that many people would die because of his decision, but for the sake of the greater good, he had to harden his heart!
