Chapter Ninety-Six: Allegiance to the Black Land

It was an extraordinary night, the guards were dismissed from the conference room, and the king summoned all kinds of people into the conference room from time to time, many of whom were suddenly woken up by the guards in their sleep, and then were taken directly to the conference room in their nightgowns.

There were people coming in and out constantly, but the old man named Yan Ming never came out, and after a long conversation all night, the king walked out of the conference room not only did not show a tired look, but was full of energy, and swept away the previous anxious expression.

A day later, Cain covered the retreat of more than 100,000 women and children to the ice city, during which he fought several battles with the Black Land Cavalry, losing more than 1,000 soldiers and more than 50,000 women and children suffering casualties and fleeing.

The next morning, the Blackland Eastern Army marched towards Ice City, and according to the spies, its strength reached 140,000 in a few days of replenishment!

Ice City, Xicheng Sentry Tower, Jing Ling looked at the endless field, and sighed lightly: "From this war, if China does not lose the country, I will definitely be the emperor!" ”

Yan Ming on the side also looked worried, "The expedition must have the right time, place, and people, but the first place in the sky is the most inscrutable, Your Majesty has ever thought that if my prediction is miscalculated, or if the heavenly machine suddenly changes, then the entire kingdom will be destroyed!" ”

Jing Ling stared at Yan Ming and said, "What if this crisis is resolved? You were right before, the Kingdom of China is too weak, and if you want not to be annihilated by the torrent of history, you must seize the opportunity to become strong! ”

Yan Ming was stunned, and said with tears: "Future generations will sing praises to your great deeds!" ”

At this moment, the melodious alarm bell suddenly sounded, and red fireworks were raised from the four guard towers in the city, and then the people standing on the city wall saw a 'torrent' rushing towards the ice city......

Jing Ling looked at the huge army in front of him with a cold expression, and everywhere he entered, the flags covered the field, the dust covered the sky, and everyone could feel the earth trembling, as if it was an army from the dark abyss, approaching them with a cold murderous aura.

Half an hour later, the Blackland Eastern Army stopped in the field one kilometer away from the ice city, and just like last time, Pache still set up a meeting tent at the middle point of the two armies, and Jing Ling also led fifty knights to meet as promised.

In the military tent, Pache looked at Jing Ling deeply and said bitterly: "Surrender, otherwise this land will be ruined." ”

Jing Ling showed a painful look when he heard this, and he hesitated for a long time before he spoke: "If I choose to surrender, what will be the outcome?" ”

Patch laughed, stepped forward and patted Jing Ling's shoulder and said, "There is no ending, I will grant you the title of Ice City, you are still the ruler of this land, but you have changed your title from king to lord." ”

Jing Ling frowned and said, "The materials of the whole city, including people of various races, are still my property?" ”

Patch was stunned and said, "Of course, they are all your property, and no one will snatch them from your hands." Now that we have 140,000 troops, plus your 10,000-odd Red Army, we will be able to attack more cities before Albertan and the Pirate Alliance, and according to the agreement, whoever takes down the city will belong to whomever it is, so in the end you may not only get the fiefdom of Ice City. ”

Jing Ling showed an excited expression: "Whoever wins the city will belong to whom?" ”

Patch smiled: "For the agreement of our army, this is true, but for our army, the attack on the city must be carried out together, and after the battle, I will naturally gather the lords to distribute the rewards, believe me, if you contribute to the siege of the city and the land, I guarantee in the name of the king, I will never treat you and your soldiers badly." ”

After speaking, he seemed to think of something, and showed a look of chagrin, "I have taken in a group of samurai who have served with you before, most of them hold the positions of Shifu and centurion in my army, but there is only one person named Wen Xiyang, I can see that he is a person with great talent, so I gave him a military rank of a thousand-commander, I heard that he used to be a brigade commander in your place, and I think you also recognize his talent." He left you because you couldn't join us, and now he might want to come back to you. ”

Jing Ling's eyes suddenly flashed with a gleam, could it be that Wen Xiyang was exposed? Why else would Patch say something to bring him back? And his words are a hidden mystery, the premise of Wen Xiyang's return is that I choose to surrender and be loyal to Heidi, and if I don't surrender, then is Patch going to kill Wen Xiyang?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Patchy was not at all simple, and he said solemnly: "If Xiyang intends to come back, of course I am willing to accept him again, but if he does not come back, then I have to congratulate him in advance, because with his talents, you may soon become a lord on an equal footing with me, but I am afraid that when the time comes, I will have to compete with this former subordinate for officers." ”

Hearing this, Patch narrowed the corners of his eyes, and didn't know what to think about anymore, and said after a while, "Then Jingling, tell me, are you ready to be loyal to me?" ”

"Of course!" Jing Ling said without hesitation.

"Alright, let's take the allegiance ceremony now!" With a wave of Patch's hand, one of the guards stepped forward with the Lancelot Doctrine and the Blackland Codex, he picked up the Lancelot Doctrine and said to Jing Ling, "Why, aren't you ready yet?" ”

Although he was asking rhetorically, his tone concealed murderous intent.

Jing Ling's body shook, and he knelt down on one knee suddenly, and said in a deep voice, "Please give me a precept." ”

Patch pressed Lancelot's teachings on the Heavenly Spirit cover of Jing Ling, and said, "I swear in the name of Heavenly Father that from now on, Jing Ling will be my allegiance, and with this we will establish an indelible bond to defend the honor belonging to the kingdom." ”

Jing Ling continued, "I swear in the name of Heavenly Father that from now on I will be a loyal allegist of Pacch, and by this we will forge an indelible bond to defend the honor of the kingdom together. ”

Patch grinned, he pulled out a beautifully carved dagger from his waist, and after slashing his palm with the dagger, he handed the dagger to Jing Ling, and when the dagger with cold light was stained with the blood of the two, they held the dagger handle together and thrust into Lancelot's teachings, the tip of the dagger instantly pierced the layers of pages, and soon pierced the last page.

Patch handed the Lancelot teachings in the bloody dagger to the Jing Ling, and then took the Blackland Code from the hands of the guards, turned the first page and read aloud: "The lords under the king's command are responsible for paying taxes, levying taxes, and defending the kingdom, and unless the king is treacherous, the lord will follow the king to death. ”

After speaking, he handed over the thick black land code to Jing Ling, and then said earnestly: "Your choice is very wise, I hope you can stick to the principles in your heart, for your relatives and friends, and for your people." ”

"I will!"

A look of choice flashed in Jing Ling's eyes, but he quickly hid it......
