Chapter 260: Secret Meeting with Justes
After Leonardo, the envoy sent by the empire, returned to Siyuan City, he immediately said Mo Shen's words as they were, and there was nothing to add fuel to them, because this was not an internal political struggle, but a war between countries, and he didn't dare to say anything nonsense.
After hearing this, Emperor Marius slapped a wine glass again and shouted: "Mo Shen, that hairy boy, really doesn't know how thick the sky is, since he wants to fight, then accompany him to fight, and order Justus to recapture Calenburg and Shield Wind Fort!"
One of Emperor Marius's most trusted aides, who had followed him for decades, whispered: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that the consul of Justus is still angry, I'm afraid he won't send troops............."
"Hmph, he dare, does he want to rebel?" said Emperor Marius in an unkind tone.
"Your Majesty, the Shadow Knights under Justus only obey him, and now that we are under enemy on all sides, we really can't afford to cause more trouble!" said the staff.
"Is that all I have to endure like this?" said Emperor Marius angrily.
"Your Majesty, I have a plan, you can send the Archon of Justus to lead the troops to defend the fortress of Leila, so that the Duchy of Dexia will not dare to attack rashly, and then order the Archon of Kairos in the Emperor's Harbor to send troops to recapture Shieldwind Fort and Kalunburg!" the staff whispered.
"Your plan is good, but is it any good for us to adjust our defenses like this? I'm afraid it will be difficult for Keros's strength to recapture the two castles from the Lion Realm. Emperor Marius asked.
"Your Majesty, with the strength displayed in the Lion Realm, it is best for Archon Kairos to win, even if he can't win, we can let Marshal Levius take over the Emperor's Harbor at that time, and slowly cultivate his power, when the time comes, we will fight on both sides, and it will be difficult for Justus to think about it!" said the staff.
Emperor Marius nodded, it is not for nothing that he cultivated and even supported Levius so much, he has given birth to several children over the years, but unfortunately they are all girls, only Levius, the illegitimate son, is a male, and Wai Livius is his brother-in-law, but in fact, he is actually his son.
This staff member, who has followed him for decades, knows about this, and this plan is not bad.
Two days later, Mo Shen received a military message from the spies, the Imperial Emperor Lingang Commander, Kairos led two legions, more than 4,000 people, and marched towards Kalunburg!
"Haha, interesting, Marius is quite bold, in that case, then I'm not welcome!Send me an order, order Teddy to dispatch five hundred tiger and leopard cavalry to assemble and standby, order Deyoer to assemble a legion (2,000 people) from Changhe Town to rush between Shield Wind Fort and Kalunburg, and Teacher Luo Luo will dispatch a thousand elites from our Lion City, I will personally meet the Imperial Army for a while!" Mo Shen said.
"Your Majesty, you should still sit in the imperial capital, after all, I am afraid that this time the war will not be small. Poro said worriedly.
"It's okay teacher, the king of the Lion Realm has never dared to go to the battlefield!" Mo Shen said with a smile.
Luo Luo knows Mo Shen's character very well, since Mo Shen said it, then it is useless for anyone to persuade him!
How could Keros not understand at this time that Emperor Marius was calculating him, and even hoped that he would die in this battle with the Lion Realm, but the military order came down, and he was not Justes, not to mention the existence of a heavy army, and the existence of the Shadow Legion that no kingdom could ignore.
However, Keros did not attack rashly, but changed his route and took two legions to Boshi City to rest.
In the Mansion of the City Lord of Bozhi City, Justes also received an order, but he did not go immediately.
"Brother, what do you say I should do? The front-line spies came to report, this time Mo Shen of the Lion Realm was personally in charge, and Deyoer also led two thousand elites, plus the elites of Lion Lake City had rushed to Shield Wind Fort and Kalunburg. Keros said helplessly.
"Hehe, you should also see it, Marius has eliminated all our old ministers, for his illegitimate son Levius to take the throne!" Justus said coldly.
"What? Livius is Marius' illegitimate son?" is this true?" asked Keros.
"Of course it's true, you don't think I don't have any eyeliner in the imperial capital, hehe, that old fox wants us old things to die on the battlefield so that his son can successfully ascend to the throne, it's quite beautiful!" Justes said.
"Brother, what should we do? Don't we obey the order?" asked Keros, confused.
"Hehe, since he was unkind first, then you can't blame us for being unjust, I have a plan to ensure that you and I are safe and sound, I don't know if you dare?" asked Justus.
"Dude, what's the plan?" asked Keros.
"I'm going to arrange for someone to secretly invite Mo Shen, the king of the Lion Realm, to ...............meet us in the wild," Justus said, and didn't continue.
"Dude, do you want to .............," Keros asked uncertainly.
"Just what you think, how about it, do you dare to do it?" asked Justes.
"That's all there is to it now, brother, let you arrange everything!" said Keros with a sigh.
In Mo Shen's barracks tent, "Your Majesty, a secret envoy has come to talk to you about something." The soldier reported.
"Let him in!" Mo Shen said.
Now Mo Shen is not worried about assassination, because Polo, Teddy, and Deyoer are all in the big tent.
"Your Majesty Mo Shen, I am Lord Justus's messenger, Lord Justus has ordered me to send a letter to Your Majesty!" the envoy whispered.
Mo Shen took the letter, opened the envelope and looked at it, looked at Mo Shen and said with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth: "You go back and tell Justus to meet at the small lake between Kalundbor and Bozhi City in the early hours of tonight." ”
After the messenger retreated, Mo Shen said lightly: "Teacher Luo, Teddy, send the tiger and leopard rider to follow me to the small lake not far away, and I want to talk to Justus and Kairos!"
"Your Majesty, I'm worried that there's fraud in this!" said Polo worriedly.
Mo Shen looked at Sorrento with a smile and asked, "What do you think?"
"Your Majesty, according to intelligence, Emperor Marius has always wanted to eradicate Justes and Kairos, and this transfer and the war with us can completely show the relationship between them, compared to what the letter said, Justes and Kairos really want to do the opposite!" Sorrento said.
"That's right! Williams sent me a piece of information some time ago, which said that Livius is suspected to be the illegitimate son of Emperor Marius, and now it seems that the absurd transfer of the empire during this period can be explained, he Marius is worried that his son will not be able to ascend the throne after his death, and Justus has a Shadow Knight legion in his hands.
Coupled with the internal relations of the Imperial Military Department, most of the commanders were cultivated by him, even including a great commander like Kairos, and Marius's worries are not unreasonable, but this is also an opportunity for us. Mo Shen said.
In the early morning, Mo Shen and the others came to Xiaohu on time, while Justes and Kairos waited here early with their personal guards.
"See Your Majesty Mo Shen, I'm Justus!" said Justes on horseback.
"Haha, I have been looking up for a long time, Archon Justus, I have heard of it for a long time, and now I see that it is indeed a great talent, but it is a pity that there is no marshal like you in my Lion Territory!" Mo Shen said with a laugh.
"Your Majesty Mo Shen, you are polite, the old man has also been a soldier for a long time, and he was lucky to survive the war, it is not worth mentioning, but Your Majesty, your wisdom and bravery, spread all over our Pande Continent, at the cost of almost no casualties among four hundred people, wiped out a legion of Alama and personally killed this traitor.
Your deeds, now the children in the empire know, compared to you, I am far from old!" Justes said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, this is the Archon of Keros. Justes introduced.
After Mo Shen and the two of them blew each other's business, they began to talk about business.
"I've read your plan in the letter, I think it's okay, let's pretend tomorrow, and I agree to the future plan, and if the plan goes well, then Archon Justus, you will be Marshal Zhenxi from now on, and Kairos will be the deputy marshal!" Mo Shen said.
Justus and Kairos glanced at each other, nodded together and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
