Chapter 244: An Omen of Rebellion

Qin Dong didn't know whether to send someone to secretly kill the little baby named Theodoric who had just come out, you must know that this baby will turn the whole of Europe upside down when he grows up, if he grows up, the rest of the matter is really difficult to say, and there is also an Odoace, this guy is not a fuel-efficient lamp, as the leader of the mercenaries, he actually abolished Romulo, the last emperor of the Western Roman Empire, and became the king of Italy himself.

However, Qin Dong thought about it, now one of these two people is still a baby, and the world doesn't know what it is like when he grows up, and although the other is an adult, he is still living a mercenary life outside, and he has no power, so it is not worth his effort to deal with it at all.

"This is news from the royal court, but what about the news from Saidika?" Qin Dong asked again.

Liu San immediately said: "Young master, the news from the royal court has not yet been finished, on the day that Diordemir became the king of the Ostrogoths, another incident happened in the royal court, that is, the Ostrogothic king Diodmir, the king of Gepid Aldaric and the king of Skir Adika jointly announced that they would not participate in the dispute between Da Dan Yu and several of his brothers, and they had already said goodbye to Da Dan Yu Erak and left the royal court, and in the early morning of this day, Adika led his direct army of 10,000 Skir cavalry to rush back to Saidika, It only took three days from the departure of the royal court to the arrival of Saidika, and I don't know why he is in such a hurry to come back, I think it is very likely that he will receive a summons from Lord Adika this afternoon, or tomorrow or two days after tomorrow! ”

Although Adika was the king of Skil, his official position in the Xiongnu Empire was that of the Governor of Zuo. In charge of the military and political affairs of the Balkan Peninsula in the southeastern region of the Xiongnu Empire, Moduo and Qin Dong, the two Xiongnu commanders, also nominally belonged to him, and in terms of official positions, Adika was much larger than Qin Dong and Moduo.

Before Qin Dong became the commander of ten thousand people. In the Balkans, there is only one Hun commander, Modo, and in addition to Modo's Hun cavalry, there is also an army composed of Idika's Skir people in the southeast region, including 10,000 cavalry, which has been taken by Edika for a long time, and the Skir army left in the Balkans is almost all infantry, but these Skir infantry only obey the command of Adika. The strength of the army is about 50,000, and the equipment is relatively rudimentary, which cannot be compared with the heavy infantry equipment of the Eastern and Western Roman Empires.

listened to Liu San's words. Qin Dong knew that the matter was already very strict, and Liu San may not know, but Qin Dong's political wisdom was much higher, and he knew that Diordemir, Ardarric, and Edia had jointly announced that they would not participate in the fight between Da Danyu Erac and several of his brothers. This shows that on the one hand, they want to preserve their strength. I don't want to lose my troops in internal friction, and on the other hand, I also have the meaning of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight. There is another possibility, they have long been dissatisfied with Dadan Yu Erak, and are about to take advantage of Erak's falling out with several of his brothers, which is a precursor to their rebellion, and now these three forces have become fragrant and sweet, not only Elac wants to win them over, but several other princes are also trying to win them over. And they didn't help each other, watching Erak fight to the death with his brothers.

Qin Dong's face was stern. He instructed: "I don't care what method you use, I need you to put our people around Edika in the shortest possible time to monitor his every move, and Modo's side can't relax!" ”

Liu San's face changed when he heard this, and he was a little worried: "Young Master, is there something wrong with the people who have placed us next to Adika?" If he finds out, young master, not only is it not easy to explain to him, but also to Da Shan Yu, nominally speaking, he is your official after all, young master! ”

"Humph!" Qin Dong snorted coldly: "What are you afraid of, didn't we also install our people around Mo Duo before?" I was just a little centurion back then! This thing has to be done immediately, even if he finds out, it doesn't matter, I'm going to see how he reacts! ”

Liu San was still a little worried, "Young Master, if Lord Adika himself has no objection, but being messed with by us like this has caused his dissatisfaction, and then breeds rebellion, then wouldn't we have taken a stupid move?" ”

Qin Dong waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, if Adika is really loyal to the Hun Empire, even if we plant more people around him, he will not rebel, he will only report this matter to Da Shan Yu, let Da Shan Yu deal with me, if he already has a rebellious heart, even if we don't do anything, he will also rebel, we do this to test it and see if he has any rebellion, so that we can make arrangements!" ”

Only then did Liu San understand Qin Dong's intentions, and he nodded and said, "Understood!" ”

For the person Attila, Qin Dong only knew that this person was absolutely loyal to Attila, and the Eastern and Western empires had paid him a lot of money several times to provide information about Attila, and he agreed on the surface, but then reported these things to Attila, which shows that Edika is not only loyal, but also a person who is round and inward, and is not a pedantic person.

To tell the truth, Qin Dong very much wants to take Adika's power into his possession, but Qin Dong knows that Adika is not so easy to deal with, and it is not easy to subdue, such a person may only be able to surrender to one person in his life, Attila is dead, he is only afraid that he will never be loyal to anyone again, even Erak, not to mention that Qin Dong is just a small captain, Adika's current status is higher than Qin Dong, let him surrender to a person with a lower status than him, is this possible? Therefore, Qin Dong knew that there was basically no possibility of recovering Edika with the anger of Wang Ba, so he could only think of other ways.

Why don't you send an assassin to assassinate Adika, and then find a way to take the power he left behind? After this idea appeared in Qin Dong's mind, it lingered and became more and more rooted.

Well, this matter is slowly trying to figure out, you can't rush, even if you want to do it, you can't let yourself arouse the suspicion of Adika's subordinate generals, and you must push the best suspect on someone else's head.

When he was about to arrive at the camp, Qin Dong remembered something again, he stopped and said: "Liu San, today I found that Martha is a little abnormal, usually she would ask me about the army at all, but today I actually asked several words in a row, you send a few people to follow him these days, see who she has been in contact with when I am not there!" ”

Sancer, suddenly a little surprised, but hurriedly said: "Young master, this is not appropriate, sending someone to monitor the master's mother, this kind of thing is not what we should do as subordinates, besides, even if you doubt me, you shouldn't doubt the master's mother, how can she...".

"Okay, I understand what you mean, I'm not afraid that she will leak our secrets, I'm afraid that she will be bewitched and deceived by some people with evil intentions! Remember, this matter must be done in secret, not by her, if she finds out, I will only ask! ”

Liu San was helpless, so he had to agree: "Then, okay!" ”

No matter where Qin Dong learned about Edika's return to Saidika, he had to go to Saidika to visit Eddicka, after all, Edika was nominally Qin Dong's superior, so the next morning he rushed to Saidika with his own guard of 800 horsemen, and after being promoted to Captain of Ten Thousand Soldiers, his guard also had the original 300 men and horses expanded to 1,000 people, of which two hundred were infantry who were responsible for guarding and patrolling his Captain's mansion, and the other 800 people were escorted by him when he went out.

At this time, Modo was no longer in Saidika, but personally went to the front line to direct the army to attack Ino and Meizer, it is said that although the battle was very smooth, but the results were not very large, it is obvious that Eno and Mezzer had already received the news and were prepared.

The only big man in Saidika is Lored who is here to supervise the battle, Lorid used to be the chief of guard of Attila, he and Adika are very familiar with each other, this time he heard that Adika actually came back with 10,000 cavalry and was very angry, and angrily went to find Adika, the two quarreled about it, Lorid believes that now is a critical period, Adika and Theodemir, Aldoric and others should not stand idly by, should lead the troops to stay in the royal court, stay by the side of Dadan Yu Erak to help him quickly quell the civil strife.

However, Adika argues that Da Dan Yu Elac and his brothers are the sons of Attila Da Dan Yu, they can't take sides with anyone, and who is qualified to sit on the throne in the end must let them fight for themselves.

Lored had already received the report sent by Qin Dong, so he knew that Qin Dong had already returned to Pazar, and now he was a little surprised to see Qin Dong coming again, "Why is Lord Qin free to come over today?" You're here to ask about the battle ahead of Modo? ”

Qin Dong smiled: "Yes, but this is only one aspect, in addition to asking Lord Modo about the battle ahead, I also have to pay a visit to Lord Edika, the Commander of the Left!" ”

As soon as Qin Dong mentioned Adika, Lorid was a little unhappy, "If you come to inquire about the situation of the battle in front of Modo, I will sue you now, but I don't think it is so necessary for you to visit Adika, this person is not worthy of your attention!" In vain Attila Da Dan Yu trusted him so much, and now he actually watched Attila Da Dan Yu's sons kill each other but watched the excitement from the sidelines, do you say such a person is hateful? ”

Qin Dong didn't expect Rored to have such a deep grudge against Adika, he turned his brain, and wondered in his heart how bad the relationship between Lored and Adika was, and whether he could use Lored's power to eradicate Adika? Lored now only has 3,000 cavalry to follow, which may not be enough to kill Adika, but with his own strength, it is different, and when he kills Adika, it is not a good idea to blame Lored for killing Adika.
