Chapter Eighty-Four: Gray Goes Out of the Mountain

The letter that Mel had sent in the city of Sakin was not delivered to Gray until two months later. The pen & the fun & the www.biquge.info was sent with it, along with letters from Pershing and the Theological Seminar.

All the followers of the Bright Wizards Guild were moving to Byronsburg, and the result was completely unexpected. Knowing the dangers of the emigration, Gray spent the next few months contacting his old friends by letter, and having his followers at the bottom of the mountain monitor the movements of Meier's party in order to help them in time.

Gray was afraid that Yunxin was worried about Myer's safety, so he didn't tell her about it, but only let Yunxin know that Myer wouldn't be going home this year. Yun Xin was in a very bad mood when he heard this. She misses Mel so much that she even wants to give up her life of seclusion and move with Gray to live in Byronsburg.

Living in seclusion in the mountains was Yunxin's wish, and if Yunxin was willing to go to Byronsburg, Gray would naturally raise his hands in favor. But he knew that it was not appropriate to go down the mountain now, the situation in Bairensburg was already unstable, and if he appeared in Bairensburg, things would definitely become very troublesome.

With the beginning of the second reform of Ilibi, the world situation was further out of Gray's control. The civil war in the Xiaohu family broke out suddenly, forcing Gray to postpone the descent again. Because he has to gather enough intelligence to see things from the perspective of a bystander. The information sent by his followers flew like snowflakes, keeping him so busy that he didn't even have time to contact Tengyuan.

When Gray saw the situation thoroughly, it was August 136 of the new calendar. He immediately sent someone to contact Emperor Ira, telling him that the time had come to change the world, and asking him to immediately launch a racial all-out war against the Tairongs. When Emperor Ira received the letter, it was already October of the same year.

At this time, King Yongsan had already submitted the table for the fifteenth time, hoping that Emperor Ira would launch a racial all-out war against the Taeyong people. After reading Gray's letter, Emperor Ira immediately began to prepare for war. Over the next four months, the Ira forces received secret orders from the Emperor, who forced them to make peace with their enemies and begin preparations for the coming all-out war of the races.

Immediately after sending a letter to Emperor Ira, Gray packed his belongings, took his wife and all the pets in the family, and went to the city of Byron with his followers who had been waiting at the bottom of the mountain for months.

On January 9, 137 AH, the day after the city of Byrons received news of the defeat of the Allied forces, Gray and Yunxin arrived in the city of Byrons. He had not been in contact with Mel beforehand, so he did not know that Mel was not in Byron City at this time. Yu Changnian, Sarin, and Pershing, who remained in the city of Byrens, heard that Gray had arrived outside the city, and immediately put down their work to meet them.

In addition to a few cabinet ministers, Yu Mingli, Kazuyan Ruizhi, Lingyu, Kazuyan Zhiliang, Larzi, Bolton, Barton, and the princess of Mel also put down everything and went outside the city to greet Gray and Yunxin.

The warm welcome of the dignitaries of the Kingdom of Byron was expected by the two, and the many princesses of Mel were also expected by the two, but the children in the arms of the princesses were completely unexpected.

By the way, He Yanxinye's daughter has already been weaned. He Yan Ruizhi fulfilled his agreement with Meier's family, he asked He Yan Xinye to take the child back to Liangyue City to visit relatives, lied that the child died young, and Yan Xinye was insane, so she stayed in the Heyan family mansion in Liangyue City.

With the establishment of the Royal Bank and the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce, most of the people of the Heyan family have moved out of the Heyan family's mansion, either to live in the city where they worked, or to live in the city of Byrons. Since Maier had not yet returned, the matter of divorce had to wait for his return.

When the six princesses with their babies appeared in front of Gray and Yun Xin, they thought it was some kind of welcome ceremony. When the princesses had introduced themselves and greeted them, Queen Alice introduced them to Mel's child with a smile.

The eldest daughter, Shirley, the second daughter, Dela, the third daughter, the fourth daughter, the fifth daughter, Willy, the eldest son, Hart, and the sixth daughter, Wayne, are a total of seven children. It is worth mentioning that each princess only holds one child, Ulis is holding the eldest daughter Dela, and the second daughter Ryla is in Yu Mingli's arms, apparently hinting to her in-laws that Yu Mingli may also become a princess.

Gray and Yunxin have been married for so many years, and now there is only one child, Meier. But Maier has only been down the mountain for a few years, and he has seven children, how can this not shock the two? It is fortunate that Mel did not plant the seeds again before leaving Byron City, otherwise the number of children would have doubled, and his parents would have been even more shocked by that time.

The eldest daughter, Shirley, is one and a half years old and can call her mom and dad. The little princess is very smart, and after being hugged by Gray for a while, she will call her grandparents. The rest of the little princesses are not bad, and they can make a faint sound even if they are whining. Prince Hart was supposed to be the smartest one, he kept his mouth shut, and he laughed and let him speak, and he spoke.

Not only does Hart call Mom and Dad, but he also greets him. He was put on the ground by Xiaoxiao, and saluted his grandparents with a clear eye, and the two laughing couldn't even open their eyes.

The joy of seeing his grandchildren temporarily diluted the pressure on Gray's heart. And Gray's arrival also made the cabinets of the Kingdom of Byron breathe a sigh of relief.

Everyone didn't expect that Mel would be gone for so long, and the three cabinet ministers were ready for Mel to leave for half a year, but after half a year, Mel was still not heard from. It wasn't until the end of November 136 of the new calendar that a team of Tairong goblins from the "Golden Bird" settlement came to report safety.

During the time that Mel was away from Byron City, the Tajon elves continued to arrive from far and wide. The Tajon Elf Settlement in Byron City has gathered more than 100,000 Tajon Elves, including several teams of Settlement Elves. After learning of Mel's whereabouts, they did not leave the city of Byrons, but settled in place under the guidance of the elves of the settlement, waiting for Mel to return.

After Gray and Yunxin entered the Bluestone Palace, the princesses introduced Ista and Lulu to the two, and for some reason, Yishan also introduced Yijuan and Yiyu, who had recovered almost in a mental state, to her in-laws. The princesses also introduced to their in-laws the captain of Meier's personal guard, Tal, as well as his friend and Yan Zhiheng, who had officially become a second lieutenant and leader of the city defense army at this time.

Seeing that He Yan Zhiheng seemed to have something on his mind, Gray asked him about it. and Yan Zhiheng did not hide it, and told his friend's father what had been accumulated in his heart for a long time.

Yanmeng's condition has not improved, and everyone is very worried. He Yan Zhiheng really wanted to visit Yanmeng, and during this time, he kept trying to get close to the shrine maiden's dormitory, but he still hadn't touched the courtyard wall of the dormitory. At his rate of progress, he would have to wait at least two years to visit Yanmeng.

He Yan Zhiheng told Gray about the cause and effect, and Gray listened to his words and patted him on the shoulder with a smile. Then he called Tal to his side, and ordered him, as the king's father, to carry He Yan Zhiheng to the dormitory where Yanmeng was.

Strictly speaking, the king's father can only be regarded as a member of the royal family, and has no right to give orders to Tár, but Tal still faithfully carries out Gray's orders. He directly carried He Yan Zhiheng in front of everyone, pulled his legs and left the scene. He Yan Zhiheng knew that Tal was going to send him to the witch's dormitory, and his body began to resist instinctively.

Tal felt that his hands and feet were in the way, and before leaving the Bluestone Palace, he asked the guards for a rope and tied him up with Yan Zhiheng, so that he could not resist. After that, Tal picked up and Yan Zhiheng, inquired about the location of the shrine maiden's dormitory as he walked, and ran over there.

He Yan Zhiheng can't move his hands and feet, but his mouth can still move. He howled over Tár's shoulder, snot and tears streaming down his face, how scared he was. But Tal ignored this, he sent He Yan Zhiheng to Yanmeng's dormitory as quickly as possible, left him there, and left.

There's not much to say about what follows. He Yan Zhiheng passed out in a coma due to excessive fear, and Yanmeng, who had been unable to get out of bed for almost a year and a half, jumped directly from the bed and used all his strength to move him to his bed. She carefully wiped the stains from his face, and then stumbled out of the dormitory, trying to go to the city guards to get someone to carry him back.

Yan Meng knew that He Yan Zhiheng's witch phobia was not yet good, and if he woke up and found himself lying in the shrine maid's dormitory, he might be scared of something. After this, the relationship between Yanmeng and Yan Zhiheng still made no progress, but Yanmeng's body got better day by day, nothing more.

On February 22, 137 AH, Grey received a proclamation from Emperor Ira to wage an all-out war against the Taeyongs. He immediately summoned his cabinet ministers and asked them to declare war on the Xiaohu family in the name of Maier, using his claim to part of the Xiaohu family's territory. At this time, the Kingdom of Byron did not know about Emperor Ira's launching a racial all-out war against the Taeyong people, and after Gray explained the situation to them, the cabinet ministers immediately did as Gray wanted.

On the day of the announcement of the declaration of war, all the forces within the legal principles of the Ira Empire deployed their troops to the border line according to the predetermined plan, and they could only launch an attack when the enemy received the news of the declaration of war, otherwise it would still be considered a war without a declaration of war. The sudden change in the attitude of the Ira people caused those forces who wanted to side with the Tairong people to tear up the original battle plan, and prepared to wait for the Taiyong people to come out and grab meat after being defeated by the Ira and Ilibi people.

In Emperor Ira's declaration of war, one thing was specifically mentioned, that is, the Ira Empire would not declare war on the Tairong Kingdom. That is, this racial all-out war is not actually "all-in", it is not so much a racial all-out war as it is a war between the Ira Empire and the Taiyong nobility.

On the surface, however, it is still a racial total war, because only a racial total war can wage the largest war for the most inconspicuous reasons. Even if the casus belli is just that a certain Taiyong person beats a certain Ira for no reason, this casus belli is still valid, because racial contradictions accumulate over time, and the declarant can say that something is racist, or that the alien race is deliberately finding fault, and the people of this tribe will inevitably develop hostile feelings towards the alien race and fully support the war.

Emperor Ira's method of declaring war was chic. He prepared a sufficient number of declaration of war notices early and distributed them to the Ira kings in advance, so that they could send war declaration notices to the Taiyong nobles when the day came, and the notices of other forces for the emperor's envoys to send slowly, so that the Ira Empire could launch an attack on all the Tairong nobles in the shortest possible time.

The last Taeyong nobleman to receive a declaration of war was on February 25 - that is, the Taeyong nobleman had only six days to prepare at most. Their main forces were fighting against the Ilibi League or other enemies, and they had no time to recall their troops or mobilize a force again for battle.

The Ira Empire came prepared. As soon as they are sure that the enemy has received a declaration of war, they will rush to capture the empty towns of the Taiyongs and loot the supplies in the city. The Taeyong nobles were caught off guard by the Ira Empire and had to go on the defensive once again, while struggling to find new allies.

The lobbyists of the Taeyong nobility were busy again, and they rushed to and fro with various tribes and forces, denouncing the Ira people for suddenly stabbing people in the back, hoping that the "righteous people" would stand up and stop them from continuing to seize the land of the Taeyong people.

There are indeed many "righteous people" in this world, but their means of "implementing justice" make the Taeyong nobles so angry that they stomp their feet. The "righteous people" issued announcements one after another, strongly condemning the behavior of Irato suddenly stabbing people in the back, and then continued to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, without the slightest intention of helping.

When the Ira Empire beat the Tairong nobles, the Kingdom of Byrons, which had declared war on the Xiaohu family, was still only the border of Chen Bing, and had no intention of attacking the Xiaohu family. The armies in Chunshan City and Harukain City also couldn't hold out, as if this war had nothing to do with them. The Ilibi League, on its part, took the opportunity to recuperate, digest the existing gains, and prepare to launch a full-scale offensive next year.

The Ilibi Alliance and the Kingdom of Byron were immobile, and the Xiaohu family only had to face two Ira forces bordering it, which made the Xiaohu family, which should have been the first target for rescue, suddenly become the richest family. Under the pressure of other Tairong nobles, Xiaohu Liantong had to send back the reinforcements they sent to Xiaohu's house, and they had to take a batch of reinforcements.

On March 15, 137 New Calendar, Maier, who had been away from the city of Byron for more than a year, finally returned. While bringing back four women with big bellies, he also brought back a great piece of good news to everyone.
