In just one sentence, there is an irreversible domineering spirit in the calm, Xiao Zhiyun just wants to tell Luo Weidenov clearly that the current Vladimir is in the bag, and he can fight as much as he wants. On the Suzdal River, it may be a difficult battle, but in Freikimir, the Dingguo army has an overwhelming advantage, and it has the confidence to speak. After a period of tossing and turning, after the Battle of the Suzdal River entered the entanglement, Dongfang Jin ordered to encircle on all sides and wipe out the resistance forces outside Vladimir. It can be said that the current surroundings of Vladimir are more stable than the city of Kiev, which has become a complete isolated city. The letter was sent into the city, Xiao Zhiyun was not busy arranging the siege of the city, if it was not a last resort, she did not want to storm Vladimir City, Luo Weidenov is a respectable opponent, with Luo Weidenov in charge, storming Vladimir will inevitably pay a heavy price. At present, Kipros has basically been taken, and Wofrey in the Caucasus has also presented a letter of surrender, in this case, there will be a heavy price to pay, and some of the gains outweigh the losses.

Early the next morning, the generals in the army came to the temporary wooden house, the weather at the end of July was not only hot, but also rainy, Dongfang Jin did not want Xiao Zhiyun to live in a tent, so he let people build this wooden house. The Dingguo army is strong near Vladimir City, Xiao Zhiyun arrived, everyone thought that they were going to launch a fierce attack on Vlekimir immediately, who would have thought that two days later, Xiao Zhiyun still looked unhurried, Gao Zhong and Shi Wengong were the most anxious, "Princess, the brothers are ready, why don't you give the order to attack." After our blockade during this period of time, the Slavs in the city have long been tortured and are better off dying, so if you don't attack at this time, what are you waiting for? ”

Yelusha was actually very anxious, after all, seeing Yang Zaixing in the limelight, he couldn't think about it. But he didn't recklessly be a bird, no matter how he said that he was also a Khitan disciple, and he was not in the same system as Gao Zhong and others. Gao Zhong These people are the descendants of His Royal Highness, especially Gao Zhong himself, who was the general of the palace back then, even if the princess was not happy, for the sake of His Royal Highness's face, Gao Zhong and others would not be too embarrassed. But he Yelusha is different, which makes Concubine Xiao unhappy, and he will definitely not be pleased. Gao Chong's tone was a little resentful and resentful, Xiao Zhiyun frowned a little unhappily, the hot porridge in her hand was also placed on the table, her eyes swept over the generals, and finally stopped at Gao Chong. Feeling the strong pressure, Gao Chong touched his neck with a little weakness, "General Gao, it is naturally a good thing that you are eager to fight, but if you can take Flekimir City without blood, why attack it?" The journey from Siberia to Kipoulos was a long one, and it would take at least four months for the new expeditionary force to arrive. For such a long time, we, less than 100,000 elites, have to take care of Kipros, and in two months it will be the autumn harvest season, and it is the time to employ people. ”

"This" Gao Pet has a reckless temperament, but he is not a fool, and he also knows how important soldiers are. Xiao Zhiyun's eyes were gloomy, Gao Zhong couldn't help but shudder, he didn't dare to refute, so he had to ask in a low voice, "The last general can't bear this responsibility, it's just the princess, Luo Weidenov is notoriously stinky temper, if you want to take Vladimir City without blood, is it possible?" ”

"No matter how hard your temper is, this time is different from the past, since this concubine has arranged it like this, she must have the certainty of convincing Luo Weidenov" Xiao Zhiyun glared at Gao Zhong with an unkind face, and slowly stood up, with a red scarf and soft armor, and a heroic appearance, "This concubine hopes that you can hear clearly, in the past few days, no one is allowed to approach the city wall without my order, and those who violate the order will not be spared." The outer earthen walls should be heightened, and at night more rockets will be installed to throw indiscriminately at the city. The surrounding defense area, but also to strictly guard, there must be no slack, the concubine will check the defense area from time to time, if anyone dares to neglect their duties, don't blame the concubine for not remembering the old feelings. ”

Everyone in the room felt an inexplicable pressure, Concubine Xiao's power is increasing day by day, she has always been able to do what she says, and everyone led by Gao Zhong hurriedly surrendered it. Xiao Zhiyun finally nodded with satisfaction, after coming to Vladimir, she first observed the various defense areas, and what made her angry was that the defense was lax in many places, and she didn't take the Slavs in Vladimir City seriously at all. The march and battle must be rigorous, the slightest slackness must not be slack, and a small negligence may lead to the loss of superiority and the capsizing of the ship in the gutter. After Gao Zhong and the others exited the wooden house, Yerusha touched the cold sweat on his forehead and sighed in a low voice, "What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd of the princess?" Could it be that old thing that Lovednov is really going to surrender? ”

"No matter what we do, now let's just defend our respective defense areas, this desire to storm the city, there is no need to think about it recently" Shi Wengong stroked his beard with pity, his face was full of disappointment, he was very eager for military merit. But what the princess said is not unreasonable, if she wants to control the entire Kipros, with the current number of troops, there is still a little less, so there is no loss. A few people got together and complained for a while, and then they went back to the defense area. Before the end of the day, the earthen walls outside the city, which had been dormant for some days, began to get busy again, and the young Slavic men began to work with shovels and baskets. The earthen wall is several feet tall and stretches into patches, like a dirt mountain, surrounding the city of Vladimir, the top of which is higher than the Vladimir wall, and now it is even higher, making the Slavic soldiers in the city full of resentment. During this time, although the Dingguo army did not launch a siege war, the Slavic soldiers in the city did not feel well, and were often greeted by catapults on the dirt mountain, not to mention the security situation in the city.

Kakiro was a native of Vladimir, and when the Orientals reached the Turov principality, he was pulled into a strong man and became an ordinary pikeman. Seeing the busy situation outside the city, the dirt mountains are piling higher and higher, which means that the opponent's projectile advantage is becoming more and more obvious, Cakiro is lying on the battlements and poking his head out, his face full of vegetables, "What's the chief, what are the Orientals going to do, is this going to torture us to death?" ”

The chief next to him had blurred eyes, dirty cheeks, leaning on the head of the city, and he looked wilted and weak, which really didn't look like a long material. Shi Chang is actually a man with strong blood, but that hearty pride has long been smoothed out by the ruthless reality, listening to Kakiro's question, he didn't even raise his head, "It must be to torture us, otherwise why raise the earthen wall." Passing by the street last night, I accidentally heard the conversation between the commanders, saying that the princess of the East was back, and now the people of the East are doing it again, eighty percent of them are going to make a big move, pity us people, the next days will not be better, and God will bless if you can leave a life. ”

During the whole day, although the Slavs were on full alert and on guard, the Dingguo army did nothing but raise the earthen wall. The two sides were peaceful, and at night, it was still peaceful, but as soon as the time came, suddenly the wind and clouds suddenly changed, and the trebuchets on the surrounding mountains all flew in unison, and countless rockets, stones, and oil were thrown into the city. For a time, the city of Vladimir was like a huge firework, and there were flames everywhere, and many Slavic soldiers and civilians were confused by this sudden change. In the past, although the Orientals often used the advantage of earthen walls to attack and harass, they have never been like today, with rockets raining down, accompanied by stones, and even wood projected in, and many places have become a sea of fire, and many houses have been smashed out of holes. The city was filled with fires and wails, and the Slavic people whose houses had been destroyed could only run into the streets, and the rain of arrows did not stop, and countless people ran around with their heads in their hands, and the whole city of Vladimir seemed to be the end of the world.

The city was in chaos, and Cakiro fled from the city, and now the defense area where he was stationed had turned into a sea of fire, and more than half of the entire squad was damaged, and even the amiable chief died under the stones. There was no trace of blood on Cakiro's face, he had lost the courage to fight, and in front of the Orientals, Vladimir was like a toy, and the people in the city were just other people's playthings. Obviously, Vladimir City can be taken, but the Easterners just don't attack, which is simply an inhuman ordeal. Panic spread throughout the city, and in the midst of this frustration, some of the city's nobles had begun to have other ideas. And how many people are willing to accompany the destruction of Vladimir City, it is not worth it at all.

In the city lord's mansion, the gray castle was shrouded in night, and Levednov stood on the top of the castle in a daze, watching the fire in the city with a blank face, and bursts of screams pierced his heart. At this moment, he found that all his insistences were pale in front of the means of the Orientals, this was the gap in strength, and there was no room for resistance. After this night, it is not known what will become of Vladimir, after this stormy blow, the blow to the soldiers and civilians in the city is catastrophic.

This night, no one slept, the soldiers and civilians in the city were tormented, I don't know how much it took, and finally stayed up until dawn, some places were still on fire, but the embarrassed people had no idea of fighting the fire, this time to hide, what about the next time? For the soldiers and civilians of the city, they were exposed to danger not only from the Easterners, but also from the city of Vladimir. After a long period of siege and destruction, many of the people in the city have begun to run out of food, and now they have no place to live, and in desperation, people will always do crazy things to survive. Thinking of some aristocratic and wealthy businessmen taking the opportunity to raise prices and oppress the good, the common people who had lost hope began to gather. Soon after, the rebels began to storm the eastern city where the nobles lived, and not only the common people, but also many Slavic soldiers were mixed in, and they had only one thought, which was to live. Under the large-scale onslaught of the rebels, the family of the lawyer of Vladimir City, Terlang, was the first to suffer, and the rebels rushed into the manor where they lived, smashed and looted, and the lawyer Terlang was killed by the agitated rebels, and his family was dragged to the street. Terlang's thirteen-year-old daughter was defiled and dying, and Terlang never dreamed that he would work so hard to defend the city of Vladimir that he would not die at the hands of the Easterners, but would be destroyed at the hands of his own people.

People who have lost their minds are in turmoil, and on this day the streets of Vladimir are full of beastly atrocities, and those nobles become a point of venting for hatred. There was chaos in the city, and the news kept reaching the city lord's mansion, and Lovednov sat down in a chair in despair, his eyes blank and without any brilliance. This was the method of the Orientals, they did not need to attack the city at all, and as more and more people joined the riots, this ancient city would eventually collapse itself. He didn't want to see this great city destroyed by his own people, and maybe it was time to make up his mind. The chief of the guard, Huyunsky, stood beside him like a stone statue, and Captain Lovednov exhaled and said to Huyunsky, "Call all the commanders and dignitaries of the city to the city lord's mansion, I have important matters to discuss." ”

"Yes," Hu Daisky resolutely carried out the order, as if the chaos in the city had nothing to do with him. Half an hour later, more than eighty percent of the commanders and nobles of Vladimir City came to the city lord's mansion. Walking into the vestibule compound of the City Lord's Mansion, they felt a hint of strangeness, and Luo Weidenov sat in the courtyard expressionlessly, like a dead man.

"The other day, the Easterners promised me that if they could sacrifice the city of Vladimir, everyone in the city would be spared death. The current situation, everyone has also seen it, I have decided to surrender in Kaesong, I don't know what everyone's opinion is" Luo Weidenov's voice was not high, but it fell on everyone's hearts, but it was like a hammer. Many commanders showed incredible eyes, in their eyes, Lovidnov was a proud man, it was because of his loyalty and integrity that he was loved by everyone, mastered the Knights of the Hammer, but now, Lovednov was about to surrender. For a while, everyone turned their heads and talked about it, some people were happy, and some people wrinkled their brows. After such a long battle, the people in the city are also divided into two factions, and those who have lost hope naturally want to surrender, after all, surrender is the best choice at the moment, the city of Kiev is gone, and what is the point of still holding Vladimir?

However, under the choice of interests, after all, there are people who are unwilling to surrender the city, and the most fierce resistance is the people related to the church, these church nobles speak sharply, and shout angrily, "Lord Luo Weide, the Grand Duke of Vyache is very kind to you, and he is very affectionate, how can you surrender the city, are you worthy of the Grand Duke by doing this?" You life-hungry and death-fearing guy are simply the scum of my Kipros. ”

Listening to the roars and attacks of the nobles of the church, Luo Weidenov's expression did not change, but he closed his eyes gently, "The Grand Duke is good, I will never forget it until I die, but now, the Grand Duke has passed away." I don't want more casualties in Vladimir, and I hope you will understand the pain. ”

"Impossible, Luo Weide, although you are the consul of the legion, but the affairs in the city are not up to you alone, come on, arrest this disloyal and unfilial, and eat inside and outside Luo Weide" The church nobles were furious, they heard about the city of Kiev, and the church in Kiev City was wiped out by the Orientals. The attitude of the Oriental people towards the church is also very fierce, others can surrender, but the church cannot surrender. With the roar of the church nobles, the church guards who came with the nobles rushed towards Luo Weidnov with a roar with a broadsword. The situation in the courtyard changed dramatically, and before everyone could react, Hudesky behind Lovednov rushed forward, shouted angrily, and rushed in from the outside a group of heavily armed guards, who were numerous, and soon surrounded the church personnel. Seeing that Luo Weidnov had already prepared, those church nobles all showed despair, and an old man who was over the age of old held a cane and cried with tears streaming down his face, "Luo Weide, you one, the church will be buried in the hands of you people, God will not forgive you, and you.... If you don't stop Lovednov, those Eastern cultists, they will take you to hell...."

Many of the noble commanders bowed their heads, the old priest's desolate voice still echoed, and Lovednov waved his hand gently. At this moment, there were no good people, no bad people, the Tao was not the same, the situation was compelling, and there was no time to convince these opponents, and the extraordinary times were very difficult, with the acquiescence of Luo Weide, the guards of the city lord's mansion launched a crazy massacre of those who resisted, including the church personnel, a total of fourteen nobles were killed, and hundreds of noble guards were killed or surrendered. On this day, known as the Day of the Destruction of the Church in Vladimir, the power of the Church has completely disappeared in Vladimir, and in the same way, Lovednov has been called a traitor by many Slavs. The bloodshed in the courtyard of the city lord's mansion changed the fate of many people, and Lovednov became a rebel who was spurned, while some of the city's nobles escaped a catastrophe, and many of these people who took advantage of the opportunity to raise prices and cause trouble were all exempted from punishment because of this incident.

Dealing with those opponents, looking at the corpses all over the house, Lovednov was not in a high mood, and if he could, he didn't want to do it, sacrificing these people in order to save more people. Vladimir's nobles were still trapped in the courtyard, and Lovednov just called a few trusted commanders to the house, so many things happened, the atmosphere in the city lord's mansion was depressing, as if everyone had a knife hanging over their heads, before the incident, no one thought that Lovidnov would be able to do it. The corpse was still outside, the smell of blood had not yet dissipated, and everyone was restless in their hearts, which of course Luo Weidenov could see, stretched out his hand to let everyone sit down, he sighed, this sigh was mixed with too much helplessness and desolation, "Are you also blaming me for being too ruthless?" ”

"I don't dare to wait, since the adults do this, there must be a reason for the adults" Where did the commander dare to admit bluntly, Luo Weidenov was not reluctant, his body seemed to collapse, and he collapsed in the chair, "You won't forget what happened last night, it's just a warning from the Orientals, they won't attack the city, they will only continue to torture us." It was only one night before there was a riot among the soldiers and civilians in the city, and if it continued, this ancient city would not be destroyed in the hands of the Orientals, but would also be destroyed in the hands of our own. The situation of the battle of the Suzdal River may not be clear to you, but there is no need for me to hide it from you now. Our men were defeated on the Suzdal River, the remnants of the army were wiped out on the way to Kiev, and the Grand Duke was killed by the chief of the guard on the way to the Caucasus. Vladimir City has become an isolated city, and we will not get the slightest support to defend it. At least, I think that the Grand Duke is gone, so there is no need to hold on, tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Vladimir are innocent, this city has been built for dozens of generations and hundreds of years, and it should not be destroyed in our hands. So, surrender is the only option, of course, you have all followed me for many years, I will give you a chance to choose, you are different from those in the courtyard, no matter what you choose, I will not embarrass you. ”

Lovednov's face was heavy and his tone was sincere, just like his previous performance. He didn't lie, and he couldn't lie, these commanders had all their soldiers and horses, and if they killed them, who would control those soldiers? A few commanders, you look at me, I look at you, my heart is entangled, after a while, an older commander sighs and says, "Everything is according to your lordship's orders, as you say, we have no need to fight any further, and the moment we lose the battle of the Suzdal River, we have lost our chances of victory." ”

The people who can be commanders of thousands are all veterans of the battlefield, and the most basic situation can still be seen clearly, as soldiers, they have done everything that should be done. If you can't avoid the fate of failure, the only thing you can do is to reduce casualties. The Kipros Empire is the dream of the Grand Duke, not the dream of ordinary Slavic children, and living is the best result, as long as you live, the blood of the Slavic nation will not be broken. This decision was made somewhat too cruelly, and laying down the sword means living, and in the same way, it also means that Kiporos is no longer the Kiporos of the Slavs, and the Easterners will become the masters here, and the fate of the future is no longer in their own hands.

Looking at the several commanders under his command, Luo Weidenov nodded slightly, and tears flowed from his cloudy eyes, "Hey.... We are all sinners of Kipros, and may we have made the right choice today, at least, right now, and let people spread the word about the city. ”

At this moment, not only Luo Weidenov collapsed, but even several commanders hung their heads, their eyes full of tears. When the news reached the outside, many nobles hugged their heads and cried, no matter how difficult the situation was, there were always some people who could not let go of their national dignity. The city lord's palace began to order the soldiers in the battalion to abandon the city walls and enter the streets of the city to maintain order, a large number of soldiers joined, and the rebels were suppressed, and soon after, the iron gate of Vladimir's southern city gate slowly rose, and the four knights walked out of the city gate side by side. The banner symbolizing Kipros' supreme power fell to the ground, and at this moment the proud Slavs bowed their heads, and the horns whined, playing the saddest music in heaven and earth.

At the moment when the horn sounded, Xiao Zhiyun led the soldiers to the south gate, Gao Chong, Shi Wengong, Yelusha and others all looked admired, but they didn't expect that in just a few days, the Slavs really opened the city and surrendered. Looking at the several Slavic cavalry walking side by side, Xiao Zhiyun did not panic, and called Dongfang Jin over lightly, "Mr. Dongfang, let people prepare grain and grass, besiege the city for so long, if you don't solve the problem of eating, many incidents will arise in the blink of an eye." ”

"Everything is ready, as long as the Slavs put down their swords, we will immediately take over the defense of the city" As a dog-headed military division, Dongfang Jin did a very competent job, and with a look, Yerusha withdrew from the crowd and made preparations. After Xiao Zhiyun asked more than 1,000 guards to guard the southern city gate, Luo Weidenov led the nobles in the city to finally appear, and when he saw Xiao Zhiyun riding a horse, Luo Weidenov bowed and bowed to the ground, and the nobles behind him were all prostrate on the ground. Looking at Luo Weidenov in front of her, Xiao Zhiyun felt a lot of emotion, although she won, she had to admire Luo Weidenov. Turning over and dismounting, Xiao Zhiyun reached out and grabbed Luo Weidenov's shoulder, and with force in her hand, she helped him up, her eyes were full of smiles, showing admiration and respect, without the slightest contempt and mockery, "Lord Luo Weide, no matter what, Concubine Ben wants to thank you, because of your choice, you have saved tens of thousands of lives." You are not sorry for Kipros, you have proven your loyalty with practical actions. ”

Translated and repeated, feeling the eagerness in Xiao Zhiyun's eyes, Luo Weidenov felt a warm current in his heart, he didn't expect that he could still be respected at this point, "The criminal minister doesn't dare, and I hope that the princess can fulfill her promise and ensure the lives of the soldiers and civilians in the city." ”

"But don't worry, as long as they don't get into trouble, Concubine Ben guarantees that they are safe and sound" Xiao Zhiyun nodded, Gao Zhong waved his hand, and several commanders stepped forward. A large number of soldiers of the Dingguo Army entered the city, and in the camp in the city, the Slavic soldiers were already lined up, and thanks to the confessions of the commanders, the soldiers of the Dingguo Army did not act excessively, and the task of receiving them went very smoothly. Two hours later, more than 20,000 soldiers belonging to the city of Vladimir laid down their arms and became prisoners. In accordance with the agreement, after the Dingguo army took over the defense, the grain and grass were transported into the city, and in the evening, a porridge shed was opened in the city to relieve the people, and no one made any more trouble when they had food.

Accompanied by Luo Weidenov, Xiao Zhiyun walked on the streets of the main city, with towering bluestone castles and wide streets. Vladimir is the oldest city in the Istrian Heights, and after dozens of generations of painstaking efforts, the construction of the city is much stronger than that of Kiev. If Vladimir were to be stormed, the Slavs would certainly be able to cause great trouble with the city's buildings. There is a huge bronze bell in front of the church, and the upper floor is beautifully engraved, and it would be a pity if this ancient city was destroyed in war. Lovednov made the right choice, and in the same way, allowed the city of civilization to continue.

The Dingguo Army opened a porridge shed according to the agreement to appease the people, which made Luo Weidenov feel a lot more relieved. He has always been worried that the Oriental people will turn their faces and refuse to admit their accounts, after all, if the city defense is taken over, it is the Oriental people who have the final say, and if others do not fulfill their promises, he will have nothing to do. In the evening, Xiao Zhiyun hosted a banquet for Luo Weidenov in the castle of the city lord's mansion, except for a few commanders, the rest of the generals in the army such as Gao Zhong, like those nobles in the city were not invited. Luo Weidenov frowned, he keenly felt that this banquet was not simple, halfway through the banquet, Xiao Zhiyun was surrounded by several guards, a noble palace dress, slowly walked to the banquet, Gao Zhong and others hurriedly got up and saluted. Xiao Zhiyun was in a good mood, and she looked even more noble and holy, and she had a kind of momentum in her gestures, "Tonight is just a private party, Concubine Ben just wants to thank you, it is precisely because of your efforts that Vladimir City has been spared a sword disaster." Therefore, you don't have to be restrained, after tonight, whether you are friend or foe, you will all be a subordinate under the regent, General Gao, General Yelu, don't you take the lead in getting to know your future colleagues? ”

Gao Pet pursed his lips, he didn't feel a taste in his heart, what is this called, he was beaten and bleeding before, but now he has become a colleague. Everyone is a soldier, each on the battlefield is their own master, but there are not too many dirty thoughts, under the deliberate friendship of Gao Zhong and others, those Slavic commanders gradually put their minds at ease, Xiao Zhiyun was relieved, and then talked to Luo Weidenov, "Lord Luo Weide, I think you also know that from Kipros to Siberia, this is a long distance, and the territory is vast. If this vast territory is all the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, now the Slavic people are also the people of the Great Song Dynasty, and these lands belong to all of us. The regent has long had a thought, since we are both the people of the Great Song Dynasty, we must work together to defend this land. According to the regent's plan, half a month later, the army will be reorganized and the Kipros front will be built in an all-round way, and the children of the Great Song Dynasty and the Slavs will be integrated into one, regardless of you and me. This move was a bit sudden, and in order to avoid unnecessary conflicts, I hope that Lord Luo Weide can help with this. ”

Luo Weidenov was shocked in his heart, he did not expect that the Orientals would have such great courage, the army was reorganized, and a large number of Slavic children were integrated into the Eastern army, so they were not afraid of Slavic children making trouble? Putting down the wine glass in his hand, Lovednov was full of doubts, "What the princess means, the ministers understand, but if you do this, won't the princess be afraid that one day, the Slavic children will take the lead in the military and recapture Kipros?" ”

"Of course I'm worried, but the regent is confident enough to make the Slavic children submit, Lord Luo Weide, you said that we are fighting back and forth, and the ultimate goal is not to make the life of his people better? If you can give your people a good life, why do they make trouble, if one day they don't have enough food and clothing, not only the Slavic children, but anyone who wants to live will make trouble, don't you think that's the truth? Xiao Zhiyun's seemingly plain words, but a word woke up the dreamer, Luo Weidenov half-opened his mouth, stayed for a long time, and then took a sip of wine with a wry smile. What a simple truth, what does the rebellion have to do with who rules Kipros? The people are just for clothes and food, and when they can't survive, they naturally commit rebellion, even if it is not the Orientals but the Slavic nobility who rule Kipros, and they do not rebel? Those so-called dignity are really a bit ridiculous.

"What the princess said, the ministers are deeply admired, the problem of army reorganization should not be big, but should the ministers also stay in the army?" After Luo Weide asked, Xiao Zhiyun had already dealt with it, so she did not delay, and put a letter of appointment in front of Luo Weidenov, "With Lord Luo Weide's ability, there is naturally no need to stay in the army, the regent ordered you to go to Kiev City later, serve as the royal senator, and assist the regent in managing the civil affairs of Kipros." ”

"This...."Lovednov didn't know what to say for a while, managing the civil affairs of Kipros, and the regent was not afraid to lure the wolf into the house?

Lovednov was a clever man, and according to his original idea, he would retire home and become a wealthy farmer when the matter was over in Vladimir, but what was happening now was beyond his expectations. Say no or say yes? It seems to be a simple multiple-choice question, but in fact it is difficult to make a decision, Xiao Zhiyun looked at Luo Weidenov with a smile, holding a bronze short sword in her right hand, as if all her thoughts were on this exquisite bronze. Luo Weidenov felt an invisible pressure, the woman in front of him seemed to be smiling, harmless to humans and animals, but he couldn't see through what she was thinking in her heart. She looks very peaceful and generous, but can such a person command tens of thousands of troops and convince countless men?

Xiao Zhiyun was not in a hurry, carefully observing the exquisite patterns on the bronze ware, this bronze short sword was found from a nobleman's house, the sword body is not only carved with exquisite patterns, the hilt is wrapped in fine pine wood, inlaid with two precious cat emeralds. At that time, just by looking at it, I fell in love with this short sword, every woman loves exquisite decorations, and Xiao Zhiyun is no exception. However, her mind has never left Luo Weidnov, and she admires Luo Weide as a person, but admiration is admiration, and she still knows what to do. Lovidnov had a high prestige in Kipros, and he was well versed in the military. Now that Kipoula has just been occupied, it will be a complicated and huge project to rebuild Kiporos and integrate the Slavs into the Great Song system, and if there is a help from Levednov, it will definitely reduce a lot of trouble. Keeping Lovednov by his side will allow him to develop his talents on the one hand, and supervise him on the other, killing two birds with one stone. In short, a person like Lovednov can be used as soon as he can, and if he can't be used, he must never be taken out of sight, beyond his control, and when necessary, he must be eliminated.

With Xiao Zhiyun's life experience, I know how capable a person like Luo Weidenov is. Even if there is no explanation from Zhao Yougong, Xiao Zhiyun will still control Luo Weidenov in her hands. If Lovidnov refuses to offer, although it is a pity, it does not mind killing him now. The living room was very quiet, the two guards stood on the inside of the door, only the sound of breathing could be heard, Luo Weidenov did not reply for a long time, Xiao Zhiyun put down the bronze sword, and said with a smile, "Lord Luo Weide, I don't know if you have thought about it?" If you agree, it will be good for countless Slavic people. ”

This sentence is a threat in the majority, which is tantamount to showing his own attitude, which Lovednov can refuse, but at the same time it will affect the life and death of many Slavic people. At this moment, Luo Weidenov smiled bitterly, his tense body instantly loosened a little, she really deserved to be the regent's woman, and there was no lack of iron and blood in the softness, "The regent and the princess value the subordinates so much, and the subordinates are so honored, how dare they disobey." The princess can rest assured that her subordinates should do everything in their power to help the regent sort out the affairs of Kipros. ”

Luo Weidenov was able to agree, Xiao Zhiyun was really relieved, a talent like Luo Weidenov, if it can't be used by me, it's always a pity, "It's so good, this concubine welcomes you to join on behalf of the regent, from now on, Lord Luo Weide will be the minister of the humerus of my Great Songkipros region." Tomorrow, the Japanese concubine will feast on the nobles of the city at the Red God Church, and will introduce Lord Luo Weide to everyone. ”

Xiao Zhiyun's words are linked one by one, Luo Weidenov is still smiling bitterly, waiting for tomorrow's banquet, he Luo Weide will become the biggest "traitor" in Kipros. Oriental people want to set him Luo Weide as an example, life is always so helpless, in the face of the current situation, you can't die if you want to. The next day, when the Red God Church was approaching, the church was full of people, not only the nobles were present, but many ordinary people also gathered here, after the porridge shed incident, the Slavs were not so distant from the Dingguo Army, a little more cordial, everyone wanted to see the peerless demeanor of the Oriental princess.

When the time comes, the sun sets, and the afterglow of the setting sun envelops the Church of the Red God, and the colors of fire blend in with the surrounding buildings. Xiao Zhiyun was dressed in a blue dress, her demeanor was noble and elegant, because it was a grand banquet, she took off her military dress and dressed like a royal lady. The banquet was also set up in the Red God Church, which was holy and inviolable in the past, and Xiao Zhiyun wanted to use the banquet to trample the church under her feet and further hit the church's influence among the people. With the arrival of Xiao Zhiyun, the surrounding Slavic people slowly knelt down, and those nobles had no choice but to kneel. The corners of Xiao Zhiyun's mouth curled, smiled slightly, and said meaningfully, "Lord Luo Weide, don't you understand now?" For these ordinary people, all they want is to live a good life, and it makes no difference whether the place where they live is called Kipros or the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Luo Weidenov has to admit that what Xiao Zhiyun said is very reasonable, because the facts are right in front of him. Because Xiao Zhiyun asked everyone to deliberately make a gesture of goodwill, the banquet slowly became lively, the oriental generals had a kind attitude, the nobles were no longer as afraid as before, and the bold people had begun to make friends, so that the interpreter became the busiest crowd. Gao Pet has a strange demeanor, not salty and indifferent to deal with those Slavic nobles, he doesn't hate these Slavs, he really doesn't like this kind of banquet occasion, if it wasn't for Concubine Xiao's explanation in advance, he would have left a long time ago.

Halfway through the banquet, Xiao Zhiyun raised her hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and walked lightly to the high platform, "Today, Concubine Ben wants to tell you a good news, after the consideration of His Royal Highness the Regent, Lord Luo Weide is specially appointed as the squire of the Great Song Dynasty Household Department, and acts as the property of Kipros." As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked, Gao Zhong and others all rolled their eyes, Luo Weidenov, an outsider, actually became a household waiter, responsible for financial issues, doesn't that mean that in the future, the weight of grain and grass will have to depend on Luo Weide's face? Since His Royal Highness came to power, the power of the imperial court has gradually returned to the cabinet, but it is the six ministries that implement the cabinet decisions. The six departments of the Great Song Dynasty, the first to recommend the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households, one is responsible for the promotion of officials, and the other is responsible for money, food and property. Shi Wengong was even more unconvinced, thinking that he Shi Wengong was going to fight in the east and west, and he had accumulated merit to this day, and he actually wanted to salute Luo Weide, isn't this a slap in the face?

The Slavic nobles were equally surprised, they didn't understand what the position of the household servant was, but the treasurer of Kiplas still figured it out, this was a terrible position, and the Orientals were really courageous. For a time, the nobles were divided into two factions, one of them admired the great luck of the regent of the East, and the other group compared with the Rodvednov and felt that the greatest traitor of Kipros.

In any case, with Xiao Zhiyun standing here, everyone congratulated them, and Luo Weidenov could only cope with it. At this moment, the Red God Church suddenly erupted into a terrible scream. About a dozen Slavs rushed towards Lovidnov, and one of them shouted angrily, "Lovid, you traitor, Lao Tzu killed you today." ”
