131: Yan Nai'er, Here I Come!

The 30,000 gold coins owed by Gui Xing had been blackmailed, and with the 20,000 gold coins advanced by Duke Xiting, Sauron already had 50,000 gold coins. , visit the latest chapter: ШШШ.79xs.СоМ. This amount of money is already enough as an estimate for hiring 20,000 mercenaries.

The next step is to wait for the storm on the side of Wangcheng.

Either way, this storm will have an outcome.

Now the Duke of Xiting is still leisurely and leisurely in the waters of Luanshi Island, but he knows clearly in his heart that his good days will soon come to an end.

His army must give an 'account' for destroying the navy army of Gui Xingzhang.

Sauron and 'Lan' Shidao cannot be involved, then the fact that the Gui's navy attacked the 'Lan' Shidao no longer exists, and it becomes the Xiting army unilaterally annihilating the Gui's navy, which is a matter of Big sin.

Taking advantage of the few days before the storm, Xiting and Sauron were making final preparations to protect Luanshi Island.

Countless ships traveled between Luan Shidao and Izumo County. The millions of catties of salt in stock were shipped out, and thousands of salt slaves from the other two salt farms were shipped in.

Along with it, there are also countless grains, vegetables and fruits, and military supplies. The most important thing is the army guarding the two saltworks of ∽√, m.

The guard force of the 'Luan' Stone Island is too weak, relying only on the one hundred warriors of the Suo family is far from enough.

The guards of the other two saltworks of Duke Xiting had a total of nearly a thousand people, which just filled the vacancy of Luanshidao's force.

Not only that, among the 3,000 sailors brought by Xiting, more than 1,000 people had their names checked off from the military register, and they were considered to have died in the naval battle with Gui's navy. And the more than a thousand people who disappeared out of thin air also stayed on Luanshi Island to guard the saltworks here.

In this way. Sauron's 'chaotic' stone island has nearly ten thousand salt people. With more than 2,000 troops, the power has swelled nearly ten times.

next. Digging a new salt field is not the most urgent thing. Building a dock and building a castle is the top priority.

With these troops and the newly built castle, although the 'Luan' Stone Island is not impenetrable, it is extremely difficult to break through without five thousand sailors.

Gui's navy has been completely annihilated. In the coastal forces of Nulang Kingdom, there should not be a single prince who can gather 5,000 sailors. Therefore, for the time being, the 'Luan' Shidao Salt Field should be safe.

Not only that. Among the 18 large ships brought by Xiting, ten of them were also wiped out by him, as if they were sunk in the naval battle that night.

Then, the ten building ships were repainted black and became the escort fleet of the Luanshi Peninsula.

For the astonishing wealth of 'Luan' Shidao, Duke Xiting gave almost everything, including his thick face and black heart.

...

Eleven days later, the storm officially broke out in Wangcheng.

The eunuchs sent by the palace, and the two thousand cavalry led by Jian Ning. Entered Izumo County Castle, brought the king's will.

Duke Xiting left Luanshi Island and went to Izumo County to receive the edict. Sauron disguised himself and remained anonymous. go together.

In the Izumo Governor's Mansion, Duke Xiting knelt down to receive the order.

In the decree, the king reprimanded Xi Ting for being absurd and unruly. It's a waste of money and money, and it's audacious. Not only forcibly breaking into the seas of the princes, but also without seeing clearly. It is an unforgivable crime to attack the princes' army without authorization.

But Nian immediately handed over the letter of injustice to Wang Cheng in the Xiting Pavilion, and sincerely apologized to Earl Guixing, so the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped.

Lowered his title to the second class, and the duke became an earl. He also ordered the Dragon Guards of the palace to escort Duke Xiting back to the capital, seal off the mansion, and confine him indefinitely.

Not only that, Zuo Daojin, the governor of Izumo County, was also implicated, deprived of his official position, and taken back to Wangcheng for questioning, because he provided the building boat and navy to Xiting.

However, all the officers and men of the navy who took part in the attack at Chaoting Shidao by Xiting were dismissed from the army, expelled from the rank of sergeant, demoted to civilians, and escorted to the king's city for questioning.

All the soldiers were scattered, driven out of the army, exiled for thousands of miles, and punished with hard labor.

After receiving this decree, Duke Xiting's heart trembled, and his whole body became cold!

This punishment is unprecedentedly severe. Is the power of princes and nobles in the world so powerful? 'Forcing' the king to make this extremely harsh decree.

Although Xiting's fleet should not break into the sea area of ​​​​Guixing, let alone wipe out the Gui's navy, the princes must be given an 'account' for Guixing.

However, this punishment was too harsh and cruel.

However, after feeling cold all over his body, Duke Xiting still heaved a long sigh of relief.

At least, the 'Luan' Shidao was preserved, and the property of more than 100,000 to 200,000 gold coins per year was preserved.

In the decree, there was not a single word about Sauron, nor was there a single word about the Luanshi Peninsula, as if this storm had nothing to do with Sauron at all. It's just that Xi Ting is making trouble for no reason and bullying others with his power.

...

Xiting was about to be escorted into the royal city, and he bid farewell to Sauron in the post house outside the city gate.

"Sauron, you have seen and felt it." Duke Xiting said, "How amazing their power is, His Majesty has no choice but to back down. Ten years ago, no one in the world would have dared to be so disrespectful to His Majesty, but now he dares to directly The bullying is coming."

Sighing in pain, Duke Xiting tremblingly said: "Just because of one reason... Your Majesty has no children. Xili has already grown his wings, and those nobles and princes have a backbone, and they really took the opportunity to jump out."

Once Xili, the aristocratic class, the princely group's tripartite forces unite, it is completely unprecedentedly powerful, even the king has no choice but to back down.

In the battle for the reserve, almost all nobles and princes supported Zhilan. But he didn't expect that Xi Bian would come out of it and have the last laugh. Since then, the contradiction between the king and the nobles has been deeply planted.

After Xibian succeeded to the throne, he immediately carried out a big purge among the nobles, which made the nobles feel anxious and restless day and night.

Then he supported a large number of civilian elites, divided the nobles and princes, and easily defeated the noble class.

If it continues like this, even though the nobles hate it in their hearts, they can only hold their noses and kneel in front of Chang Bian and sing conquest, not daring to have any second thoughts.

but……

Time passed year by year, and soon the king was fifty years old, but he still had no heirs. There is only one 'daughter'.

And soon, the news was confirmed. The king of Xibian has a hidden disease, so it is impossible to have a son. There can be no more offspring.

Suddenly, everything changed!

At this time, Prince Xili, who was protected by the Dragon Temple, appeared in front of everyone, and he had grown up.

Therefore, in the shortest possible time, all the nobles and princes united with Xili.

Then, everyone is waiting for the day when the king will die. It was also from that day that the king changed from offensive to offensive. became defensive.

Although everyone still fears him, they still bow down to him. But everyone knows that things are different.

A king without an heir loses almost everything.

"I'm downgraded from Duke to Earl. It's nothing. The key is that the officers of my army are basically hard to live." Duke Xiting said: "I will do everything possible to save them, but they are basically doomed. Those one or two thousand soldiers will be reduced to slaves. Working day and night, I don’t think they can live long.”

Then, Duke Xiting covered his heart and said, "If I had known it would be so tragic, I should have crossed out all their names. They all stayed on Luanshi Island."

Sauron was so depressed that it was hard to breathe, and he really didn't expect that the situation would be so tragic.

She has always been forbearing. The cabinet, which has always been forbearing, exploded without warning this time.

"All these sacrifices. Do you know what it is for?" Duke Xiting asked.

Sauron said: "In order to keep the saltworks in the 'Lan' Stone Peninsula, for the income of more than 100,000 to 200,000 gold coins every year. It's also... for me."

"Yes, all these sacrifices are for our cause, our common cause." Duke Xiting said, "However, I can only help you so far, and we can only help you so far. The rest , to be done by yourself."

Then, Duke Xiting handed over a thick dozen of gold coins and said, "Here is 50,000 gold coins. I have sold all of them and sold more than a dozen properties to get enough. You take them all."

Immediately, Sauron trembled violently. He just paid 20,000 gold coins in advance to Duke Xiting. Who knew that he actually sold his property and collected 50,000 gold coins.

Duke Xiting continued: "I didn't intend to leave the field so soon, but... your astonishing performance disrupted all rhythms, and I had no choice but to leave early. You should know who I represent, right?"

"I know." Sauron said.

Of course he knew that Xiting certainly did not represent himself, but a certain supreme ruler behind him.

If so, compare this struggle to a chess game.

Then on this chessboard, Jili's side has strong soldiers and horses, with two horses, two cannons, two chariots, two warriors, and two statues. There are countless soldiers.

On Sauron's side, there are currently only three chess pieces. Sauron is a pawn, Xiting is a horse, and Xibian is a veteran.

Now, in order to protect the pawn of Sauron and successfully cross the river, the horse of Jiting has been completely trapped to death.

This struggle is the most terrifying and biggest struggle in the history of the establishment of the kingdom of Nulang, a shocking storm.

Duke Xiting said: "Our enemies are far stronger than us. They are most of the nobles in the world, most of the vassals, and a large number of stupid civilian elites. We are outnumbered and outnumbered. The weak fight against the strong, what we have to accomplish is a battle that is almost impossible to win."

Sauron nodded, of course he knew how difficult it was, he was almost an enemy of the whole world.

The king has no children, so he wants to completely subvert the traditions of the kingdom, and even the traditions of Middle-earth, and let a woman become king.

This is to be an enemy of the world's traditions and all the nobles in the world.

Inadvertently, Sauron got involved in this terrifying storm and became the pawn at the front.

"In the battle of Tianshui City three months later, their army will not end, and neither will our army. Everything depends on you." Xi Ting continued: "You are going to face Suo Hanyi's army. Erdan's rebel army, and the army that Zhining brought to Tianshui City early in the morning, totaled 35,000 troops."

Sauron nodded, remembering every word of Duke Xiting.

"The battle of Tianshui City is not only a battle for you alone, but also our first battle against the world." Duke Xiting said: "You can only win, not lose. You know that once you lose in the battle of Tianshui City , what are the consequences?"

Sauron said: "I know, you will give up the fight and admit defeat completely. Prince Xili will inherit the throne smoothly, and you will completely kneel down and submit to him."

Sauron is the only pawn on the chessboard that can cross the river. Once this pawn is abolished, the game of chess will be lost without a game.

"Yes!" Duke Xiting said: "At that time, you will die, your sister will die, and everyone in the Suo family, including everyone on 'Land' Stone Island, will die cleanly. And 'Land' Stone The huge foundation on the island will also completely fall into the hands of others."

Even at that time, even Sauron could guess the ratio of spoils, with 30% for returning home, 40% for leaving princes, and 30% for nobles and princes.

In order to survive and keep his foundation, Sauron had to win this battle in Tianshui City, not lose.

Once lost, it will be beyond redemption.

"Then, all the burdens will fall on you." Duke Xiting said, "Then, I will go back to Wangcheng to accept the crime."

After finishing speaking, Duke Xiting walked out of the post house, and then raised his hands.

Several eunuchs stepped forward and put shackles cut out of paper on his body. Because he is a royal family, he can't use real shackles, so he uses paper shackles instead, but this is already a great shame.

Then, four dragon guards carried his 'fat' body onto a carriage that was enclosed on all sides.

"Let's go." Wan Qichang Jian Ning gave an order.

Immediately, thousands of 'elite' cavalry escorted the endless prison carts and headed towards the royal city.

Among this group of prisoners, the Duke of Shitei was the first, the governor of Izumo Prefecture Zuojima Jin was the second, and behind him were all the officers of the Shitei army, as well as the civil and military officials of Izumo County. There were hundreds of them. All wearing shackles, shut in the prison car.

The mighty team of prisoners, amidst the scolding of the crowd, headed towards the royal city.

Sauron looked at the team, feeling almost so sad that he couldn't breathe.

And all these sacrifices were just for one thing, to protect his pawn from crossing the river smoothly.

...

Night falls!

Sauron has completely changed his appearance and disguised himself. His face was smeared with ginger liquid, revealing a sickly yellow color. There was a thick beard on his chin, and his hair had also turned half gray and half white.

At this point, no one can recognize him. There was no longer Ye Jingyu by his side.

Riding alone, heading southwest. Sauron, a pawn, started to cross the river!

And once his pawn really crossed the river, there would be no room for retreat, and of course he would turn into a chariot.

Next, he can only win at every step, not lose.

The first step is to conquer Yan Nai'er in the shortest time, from mind to body.

The second step is to 'get' her father's Silver Wolf mercenary group as his core army.

Now, he's going to find Yan Nai'er, her father's invincible mercenary group.
