The Prince's Mansion

More than a dozen slaves were practicing assassination, they were muscular and had a good gait, holding wooden swords and shields, practicing their movements against a wooden pillar, while learning to hit the upper part of the enemy with their shields, and when the enemy raised their hands to resist, they used short swords to deliver a fatal blow from the bottom up.

When the order was delivered, the slaves were lined up in an orderly manner, not a phalanx, but they were not as messy as when they were first bought, and nothing was clear.

Pei Ziyun was very satisfied with the results of the training during this time, he glanced at the slaves and said, "You are all slaves I bought to be proficient in martial arts, this time we are about to go on the battlefield, I hope you can let me see the results of the training on the battlefield." I don't care what you think, whether you want to participate in this expedition and be a slave or not, you don't have the right to choose, on the battlefield, I just need you to understand the word obedience, understand?"

"Understood. The unanimous answer made the slave team quite presentable.

Pei Ziyun smiled coldly again, he commanded hundreds of thousands of troops in Daxu, this person is nothing at all, he just said: "This expedition, I have only one requirement - bravery and military exploits." ”

"The brave will not be punished, if there are military exploits, I will not be stingy, there are wine, meat and women, among them, I will make him my protector!"

Hearing this, there was a commotion below, and a trace of excitement was evident on the faces of some slaves.

The protected person is a special concept in this world, similar to the ward, in fact, it means that they are promoted to the free people class, but they are still under the "protection" of the original owner, that is, Da Xu's retainers.

For these slaves, it was almost impossible to become citizens within one generation, and the best reward was to be free, and if they were not free, not only would they be the personal property of their masters, but their descendants would be slaves for the rest of their lives.

Now Pei Ziyun's words have given them a glimmer of hope, which can't help but make them excited.

Pei Ziyun quieted down in the scene and continued: "But if you don't obey orders and are lazy, I will punish you mercilessly, or even hang you, I hope you will keep this in mind." ”

"Let's go!" Pei Ziyun waved his hand, gave an order, and said to Gesne, who was standing: "Next time, I will buy another batch of such slaves, and remember to buy some slaves who have mastered skills by the way."

It is said that the whole world is vast and sparsely populated, but it is not for Greece, the Greek terrain is divided by mountains, the land suitable for cultivation is very limited, the population in Greece is very easy to overload, and frequent city-state conflicts, there are many prisoners of war, these are the main sources of slaves, and life is very miserable.

"I just need someone who is close to me and builds up his exploits. Pei Ziyun secretly thought, saying goodbye to Onone, the joy of the newlywed has not been enjoyed for a few days before going to the battlefield, Onone told him to be careful and pay attention to protecting himself.

In this era, it was a very honorable thing for a man to make a meritorious deed, and even if he was newly married, Onogne did not object, but like all worried wives, Onogne was also worried about what happened to Paris on the battlefield.

Pei Ziyun led the slaves in a neat line to the dock, where the ships were ready, and three of them were full of soldiers.

"Prince Paris, this is our largest warship, and our most elite soldiers. The man sent by the palace bowed and said, and handed over another jar: "This is a special gift from your majesty, your father, to you, waiting for the soldiers to paint it before the battle." ”

"What is this, is it an invulnerable ointment?" Pei Ziyun joked.

The man was middle-aged, bowed down and said, "Prince Paris, you are laughing, there may be invulnerability anointed, but this can only be done by the god Ares or the goddess Hecate. ”

"This is a secret medicine in the court, and when a warrior applies it, he can be energetic and full of physical strength in a short time. ”

"It turned out to be a temporary stimulant. Pei Ziyun understood, as for why there is such a drug in this era, it is not rare, not to mention stimulants, even invulnerable drugs, there are really them, and the era is not far away - the Golden Fleece incident, the life-saving thing that Medea gave to Yi Asong is this.

At that moment, Pei Ziyun immediately understood that this was something that the king had escorted himself, it was really painstaking, and he smiled at the moment and said, "Thank you, father, rest assured, I will definitely win." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and directed the slaves to enter, these ships were all 50-oars battleships each, only the bow and stern had decks, Pei Ziyun arranged for the slaves to sit on the benches of the battleship, facing the stern and rowing the oars.

These oarscaping jobs were originally equipped with specialized personnel, but in order for these slaves to grow up as soon as possible, Pei Ziyun asked the veteran who used to paddle to draw a few people to guide these slaves, believing that by the time they arrived at the destination, these people had completely mastered the skills of paddling.

The soldiers remained quietly in the cabin, which was not dark, and most of them had participated in several battles, and their attitude was more leisurely than that of the new slaves, they wiped, arranged their weapons and armor, and prayed to the gods.

At this time, it was close to dusk, the sky was blue, thousands of waves, flocks of sand gulls soared and fell, the island of Tenedos was very close to Troy, only a few dozen nautical miles, Pei Ziyun stood on the deck and said: "Don't wait for tomorrow, set off immediately, I will crush all the krakens that are blocking in front of me into powder." ”

With the order, three large ships sailed out.

Tenedos

The island of Tenedos is very small, about thirty square kilometers, and it is not even a city-state, but it is an excellent place to grow grapes, but no one has yet noticed it.

The night at sea is extraordinarily quiet, only the waves crash against the sand and rocks, the sky is dotted with stars, and the surroundings are dark.

Several bonfires were lit on the island, and Ifubos took a deep look at the dark sea, and snorted, "Roast the newly caught deer!"

Soon after, the fire crackled, and the roast venison gave off a mouth-watering aroma, but Ifubos was so upset that he had no appetite for a while.

The princes of Ifubos and Troyros fled to the island with the remaining merchant ships under the unfavorable circumstances of destroying the Kraken.

A group of men spent two days on the island in fear as they waited for the king's rescue to arrive.

Unfortunately, the Siren could not go ashore, leaving them a chance to breathe, but the Ornichia could fly, and even with the princes of Ifubos and Troyros, as well as bows and arrows, they still took a few sailors who patrolled the night every day for a big meal, and when they rushed over, there was only screaming.

At this time, it was time for the banshee to come and catch people for dinner, and everyone was nervous, afraid that they would be caught.

Moreover, this incident is actually related to the fact that Prince Ifubos does not want to fight hard, and uses coercion and inducement to let these sailors "take the initiative" to patrol the night, but they are all sailors who are captured, and everyone acquiesces to this fact, and the number of sailors tonight is seriously insufficient.

Prince Ifubos glanced at the people present, and all those who made eye contact lowered their heads and shivered, fearing that Prince Ifubos would find him to patrol the night.

Prince Ifubos pondered for a moment and said, "A few days ago, our men went to patrol the night, should the caravan also contribute its own strength?"

As he spoke, his cold eyes swept over the group of people in the caravan.

There was silence in the merchant ranks, and after a long time, Kleiman came out and said: "Dear Prince Ifubos, we still insist on fighting with the Ornihosh as always, I don't want our people to die in vain, besides, there are so many of us, and now it is on land, it is not certain who will die." ”

Kleiman has no choice, because the prince can do this, and he is not worried that these sailors can turn the sky upside down, but the caravan has no coercive force, and Kleiman will not only not be able to get along on the ship, but will probably lose his footing and drown next time.

Kleiman's house had two vineyards, thirty slaves working hard in them, and his wife two maids, but he did not want to die.

Prince Ifubos listened and sneered: "Kleiman, who is the grizzled face who was chased by the kraken and did not choose the wrong way, now you are in the open mouth, you want to fight with the banshee, I want to ask you, what do you plan to fight with them, it depends on you and a few people, can you fight?"

As he spoke, he pointed to the rest of the caravan.

The merchant Kreman looked at Ifubos and thought to himself, "Apart from Hector, this Ifubos is still a prince with a great reputation for bravery, why is this like this now?"

He also didn't want to think that Oshovies didn't have any confrontation with these Krakens head-on, let alone Ifubos? Maybe at first, Ifubos didn't know the depth of these Krakens, or he would have tried, and the result was obvious, Ifubos himself had fallen into it.

These krakens are strong, and Ifubos will not be so stupid, touching stones with eggs, obviously unable to beat, but simply retreating on this small island and waiting for the king's rescue to come.

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted: "There is movement." ”

Everyone extinguished the bonfire, waited with bated breath for the arrival of the Banshee, and a wave of despair gradually appeared in their hearts, if the king did not come again, they would all have to be gradually destroyed by the Banshee.

ocean

The stars brightened in the night sky, and a command was delivered: "Prepare for battle!"

The physique of a hero, Pei Ziyun can ensure that all his subordinates can hear the order clearly even if he speaks in an ordinary voice, a total of three warships, and at this time, the doors of the warehouse were opened, and soldiers in armor poured out.

Pei Ziyun stood at the bow of the boat, and it was not time to make a move, he just looked at those bloodthirsty soldiers, who had already smeared some kind of anointing oil on each other's bodies, their young bodies exuded a strange fragrance, the soldiers' eyes gradually flickered coldly, and rapid gasps burst out from between their clenched teeth.

The distance is getting smaller and smaller, and Pei Ziyun still feels it in the faint light, and in the deep black sea, there are already enemies approaching - in the water, and in the sky.

"These cunning and hateful krakens are not like the legendary monsters without brains!" Pei Ziyun's dark eyes gradually appeared a dark blood color, and a sneer flashed away, and he had already raised his hand, and the murderous aura was permeating.
