Chapter 169: Caesar's Conversion
At the same time that Murong Ke led his troops to approach Yongzhou, Murong Invincible also sent an envoy to Xuchang to ask for a meeting with the beast king Caesar.
In the chamber, Caesar looked at the letters brought by the messenger, and the anger in his heart rose like magma.
"This Murong is invincible, he really took my Caesar as a three-year-old child. killed my dog, and wagged his tail in front of me and begged for mercy, saying that he would succeed Yu Wenpo and continue to be my dog, isn't this a big joke in the world!
Everyone knows that among the five Xianbei tribes, the Murong clan is the most opposed to my orcs. Now, this attitude has changed from normal, and its perfunctory procrastination is self-evident! I will punish such shameless acts! The parchment letter, which had been in Caesar's hand one moment, was reduced to ashes the next.
Next, Acot, Caesar's most trusted general of the beast king, stood up and said, "My king, don't be angry and raise a teacher! The soldiers and horses of our army are now gathered in Xuchang, and there are not many soldiers and horses left in Youji and Sanzhou. Originally, I wanted to rely on Yuwen Po's dog to take care of our home and the hospital, but now, this dog has been killed, and it is not beneficial for our army to turn against Murong Invincible at this time. It is better to respond to Murong Invincible's request, pretend to be friendly with Murong Invincible, and secretly dispatch troops and horses to defend in case of accidents. ”
Scipio, another great general, also stood up and said, "My king, the last general, also approves of this." Now, Murong Invincible has just fought a big battle with Yuwen Po, and the losses must be very heavy. And he is anxious to conquer the entire grassland and eliminate the remnants of the three tribes of Yuwen, he has already used troops in the grassland and Yongzhou, and he must have no troops to fight with me. Our army only needs to defend, and there is no need to go to war with it. As long as the established strategy is implemented, and when our army is trained, we can capture the Yucang Federation in one fell swoop, and then destroy the Celestial Star Empire. At that time, Murong Invincible was a grasshopper after the autumn, and it wouldn't be long before he stumbled. ”
Caesar glanced at the rest of the generals below and said, "What are you going to do?" ”
"We're going to do the same!"
Caesar pondered for a long time, and finally made a decision: "Well, in that case, Uria and Scipio, you two will take 50,000 horses and go to Beiping and Taiyuan respectively, and guard the three states together with the prince Octavian in Yecheng. Without my military order, don't fight Murong Invincible. ”
"No, the last general will obey!"
"Arkot stays, and the other generals can disperse!"
"No!"
As the generals dispersed, Caesar's gaze shifted to Acot and asked, "What did the general just say, just in case?" ”
Acott walked to the map, pointed to the map and said: "Yuwentai of Yongzhou, two days ago, the Tongguan guard sent a letter of invitation to fight with Yongzhou, although the news of the defeat of the Yuwen clan in Hetao has not been a few days. But the last general always feels ......"
Before Akot finished speaking, Caesar laughed: "Whether it's Yuwen Po or Yuwen Tai or someone else, they have only one identity, the human race. In their eyes, we orcs will always be aliens.
Even before, Yuwen Po was only using us for the sake of fighting with Murong Invincible's interests, and he was not sincerely attached to us. The current Murong is invincible, and the same is true.
That's the real reason for my anger. One or two, they all use my Caesar as a tool, it's so good that the scar forgets the pain, and they forget the majesty of my orcs.
Your worries, I also know, are you worried that Yuwentai has reached an agreement with the Murong clan using Yongzhou as a bargaining chip, or that the matter of Yuwentai's defeat is simply a conspiracy planned by Yuwentai and the Murong clan. Everything they are doing now is just to confuse us.
But we don't know any of this, and we have no way of knowing. Because of the fundamental difference between us and the Terrans, we can only bribe the high-ranking officials of the Terrans to spy on the news, this is the case with the Celestial Star Empire, this is the case with Xianbei Hu, and the same is true with the Yucang Federation.
Now, the people we planted next to Yuwen Hu have died on the battlefield with Yuwen Hu, and we have no way of knowing Xianbei Hu's movements. If our people in the Celestial Star Empire and the Imperial Sky Federation also end up like this, then our sources of information will be completely cut off, and our sources of information will be completely cut off, which is the most important problem we are facing at the moment. ”
"What are you going to do, my king?" The reverence for Caesar in Acott's heart could not be stopped for a long time like a surging tide, and the angry beastmaster Caesar just now was really acting. Caesar is Caesar, always the wise beastmaster, who will never miss something big because of anger. Not only that, but he has already thought about the aftermath. I didn't expect it, I was already thinking far, but Caesar was even farther than I thought.
"Akot, among the states of the Celestial Star Empire that we occupy, there are many slaves of the Celestial Empire who are willing to be loyal to us. Go and find some astute and useful people, and make them spies, and let them be of my use, especially those who have been business travelers before. Silver, gold, and goods, and land for women, and give them as much as they want. The only thing is to keep their families in our hands. ”
"I ...... I, the king, you ...... Why do you ......?" Akot froze for a moment, he could not imagine that this would come from the mouth of the Beast King, who regarded the Terrans as grass mustard.
Caesar laughed, "Why is this so? Quite simply, in the past, I always thought that as long as I controlled the top of the supreme rulers of the Terran countries, I would be able to know their specific movements. However, in the battle of Hetao, the person who delivered the news for us by Yuwenpo's side died in battle, and we couldn't get any news from Xianbei Hu.
It was like a slam on my head. This time, it also woke me up. Yes, the Terrans are only worthy of being slaves of our orcs, and this will not change for a long time. However, there is also a place for the Terrans to be used. If it is used well, it will be beneficial for us to unify the entire continent.
For example, when we built a warship before, many skilled craftsmen among the Celestial Slaves helped us a lot by designing a warship that could travel across the moat.
Also, the food will eventually run out, and the weapons and armor will eventually run out. If there are no slaves for us to farm, if there are no slaves to forge weapons and armor for us, if there are no slaves to carry all kinds of materials, how can we survive, how can we fight, and how can we rule the continent? ”
"This ...... This ...... "Acot couldn't accept it for a while, why Caesar's attitude changed so much." It seems that the person standing in front of him is no longer the former beastmaster Caesar.
"Doesn't it feel like what I'm saying is a bit deviant compared to what my ancestors have handed us for generations? But Acott, think about it, the place where we used to be was only Liaozhou, and all the people were just us orcs. Slaves who had been captured in war were tortured to death before they could perform their abilities, and the situation at that time was very different from the situation we have now. If we don't change our attitude according to the general environment, we will be doomed.
Only by seeking change can I let the orcs dominate the entire continent, and can I let the orcs live on this vast continent endlessly. ”
"I'm Wang Yingming! But my king, if this is the case, it will be very easy for enemy spies to enter our side! Our bottom line is also easy to be detected by the enemy's details! ”
"Then it's up to you Acott! Otherwise, why would I tell you so much today? ”
"My king rest assured, the last general will live up to my king's trust!" Acot suddenly felt the weight of a thousand pounds on his shoulders.
Caesar looked at Arcot with satisfaction and said, "Today, only you and I know, and we must not speak to a third person." It's not a good time to raise the status of the Celestial Star's slaves. When it comes to choosing and training spies, you can only do it secretly. Before the war, the morale of the army must not be disturbed. ”
"No! Then it will go down first! ”
"Go ahead!"
Looking at the back of Arcot leaving, Caesar was full of emotion, it was not that he wanted to change, but that the environment they were in now made him have to change! If you don't change, you will die, and if you change, you will live, this is the bloody lesson of the history of the human race!
