Zhu Ping's move will completely tear his face with the king.

Many people will feel that it is the best choice to temporarily repair the relationship.

But the specific problems are analyzed on a case-by-case basis.

What do you gain by being false with the king? Nothing can be gained, the king only needs military power!

Surrender the military power to him, gain the favor of the king, and then what? Will he still give the opportunity to raise the army again?

Not anymore!

Zhu Ping's soldiers were established under the favorable time, place and people, and took advantage of the inattention of the great nobles.

As for hiding the strength, it has to be hidden, so much soldier money stands in my hands, plus the recent large-scale purchase of grain......

It's strange to be able to hide!

If you lose "originality and accumulation", it will be difficult to have a chance to turn the tables again.

If you don't give military power, the relationship between the two sides will inevitably be torn apart, since the result of scolding the king and bowing to the king are the same, so why don't you have a wave of coolness and scold!

What is there to be afraid of! What's there to be afraid of!

Taking a step back, if you don't tear up the relationship, as the king's line, and wandering away from the king's sight, you are the most vulnerable target to Xiao Nong and Lin Zheng.

When Xiao Nong and Lin Zheng's army arrived, it was estimated that the king would still choose to turn a blind eye.

Zhu Ping took the initiative to tear up early, not only to grasp the opportunity to see what the king's side could plan, but also to get rid of the hatred between Lin Zheng and Xiao Nong.

Why not.

"A person who is bound to be an enemy should never have any luck mentality towards him, and never pin his own safety on the character of others."

Just after Zhu Ping had disgusted the king in the morning.

Xiao Nong and Lin Zheng sent a letter in the afternoon, the content of the letter, first, an accusation of the king's various vices, and second, an expression of appreciation for Zhu Ping's previous behavior.

That's all.

Zhu Ping read the letter and exhaled softly: "They didn't invite me to join their alliance, it seems that they are still a little uneasy about me, worried that I will have a fake quarrel with the king, and they will be behind them."

But through this letter, I can see why these two men formed an alliance so quickly. ”

Before Baron Xiao Nong was killed, he would have been hostile to the king and Lin Zheng, but Lin Zheng gave a reasonable explanation.

That is, the old guy of the king sent a killer, and after seeing that the assassination failed, he directed and acted by himself and dragged him into the water.

At the same time, Lin Zheng and Xiao Nong took the initiative to put forward an alliance plan and make corresponding interest exchanges.

Zhu Ping estimated that the specific content of the conversation between the two sides was that the two would destroy the king first, and then discuss the distribution of power.

As for whether what Lin Zheng said is true or false......

The two have formed an alliance, Puke has died without proof, did Lin Zheng kill Puke, is it necessary for Xiao Nong to investigate further?

No need!

Even if Lin Zheng was an assassin and killed Puke, Xiao Nong would still form an alliance with him with a smile and call each other his most loyal allies.

War only talks about interests, not about human feelings.

Zhu Ping rubbed the starry wooden staff in his hand slightly, and whispered, "Xiao Nong and Lin Zheng have no intention of forming an alliance with me, and they also did not force me to attack the king.

It seems that the result is not bad, and the Hall family has been successfully removed, and there is no need to stand in line anymore. ”

……

Following.

One news after another reached Zhu Ping's ears.

On the side of the Noble Mutual Aid Association, many nobles united and pulled the banner of Zhu Pingdang, declaring that they would not participate in the disputes between the nobles.

Of course, these little nobles are all fancy people with status and no strength.

Most of the powerful nobles did not rush to express their stance and waited for the price to sell.

Zhu Ping didn't pay attention to this group of unimportant little nobles for the time being, and just let Nina check their family background to see if there were any valuable treasures.

Then Zhu Ping beckoned the illusionist Anji over, and asked him to warn the extraordinary sparrow to take a rest, there may be a night shift in the near future to ask it for help.

After Anji's call, the extraordinary sparrow, which has been eating more and more good things recently, and whose size is constantly expanding close to the falcon, landed and enjoyed the extraordinary insect feast prepared by Zhu Ping very rich.

Because he was abducted and deceived by the pit before, he was deceived into 5,000 gold coins, so now he can make it casually.

Zhu Ping pulled up Angel, who was full of oil, and said, "Help translate it, and tell Extraordinary Sparrow that it needs to help patrol the surroundings of Hall Castle at night recently." ”

Extraordinary Sparrow: "Twitter." ”

Angie said embarrassedly: "She said she was just a bird, she couldn't do it!" ”

Zhu Ping gave him a backhand slap and said speechlessly: "If you want to be lazy, you should act!" You didn't translate what I said, so you said no, isn't it looking for a draw. ”

Anji said aggrievedly: "Extraordinary sparrows can understand people's speech. ”

"Oh! All right! It doesn't matter, a day of patrol, two gold coins, do you want to do it? Zhu Ping took out two gold coins from his pocket and slapped them on the table.

"Heh, money." Angie tilted her chin and said: Money is like dung.

When Zhu Ping took back one of the two gold coins, he quickly grabbed the remaining one in his hand, patted his chest and said, "My bird is very powerful!" ”

The war is about to begin.

At this time, pre-war preparations were underway.

Zhu Ping returned to the main building of his castle, and Nina's maid was constantly carrying the valuable items inside, and Zhu Ping suddenly remembered that he had thrown a small bag of diamonds on top of the pendulum clock.

Zhu Ping didn't force them when he saw that everyone was busy, so he went upstairs alone to get something.

……

Night is slowly falling.

The night after autumn was quite cool, in a training camp outside the capital.

The chief of the kingdom guard rubbed his aching throat, his face extremely solemn, and he took the knight's sword in his hand and walked to the soldiers who were ready to go.

He roared loudly, "Valliant soldiers of the kingdom, the time has come for the king to need you, now take up the weapons in your hands, and slay all the enemies before you like knights, money, titles, you name it." ”

As he said this, behind him, more than a dozen bloodstained prisoners were pushed to the ground by soldiers, and the soldiers held their knights' swords around their necks.

Pointing to the prisoners, the chief of the guard said to the soldiers: "They are the betrayals of His Majesty, and the king will reward all those who fight bravely, and he will punish all those who are cowardly." ”

One of the prisoners begged for mercy on his laurels: "We have not betrayed us at all!" You've caught the wrong person, and I want to see the king. ”

Someone snorted coldly: "Third child, don't ask for it, it's useless!" That dim-witted old king won't see you. ”

Someone scolded bitterly: "Jill Orlanton, you despicable old fellow, we are waiting for you! ”

After saying that, the chief of the guard ordered: "Kill! ”

The bloody lights lit up, and they looked particularly bloody and hideous under the bonfire of the barracks, stimulating the nerves of all the soldiers present.

This is the most traditional, simplest and most effective way of mobilization for the Orlanton army.

A small action stimulated the soldiers' desire to kill.

Nearly two thousand soldiers, under his command, marched towards the Hall family, marched in the darkness of the night, and finally stopped in front of the hall family's gates.

The chief guard pulled out the knight's sword at his waist, pointed it to the sky, and then quickly turned the blade of the sword, pointed to the direction of the Hall family, and shouted, "Give it to me!" Destroy the Hall family! ”

Two thousand disorganized soldiers rushed forward in one go, pushing the wooden door of the Hall family and pouring in like dense ants.

Regardless of whether there was anyone inside or not, when they saw an upright object, they began to beat up, and the sound of shouting and killing was endless.

Seeing this scene, the chief of the guard showed a happy look of revenge on his face, and said with a hideous smile: "Zhuping Hall, this is the price of your arrogance......

Just as he waited for the soldiers to empty the enemy inside, he was able to clean up the mess safely.

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom" ......

The sound of countless gunpowder explosions sounded, like bombers flying over the ground, and all buildings, all flowers and trees, were swept away by the heat wave and turned into ashes.

The flames accompanied by a pungent spicy smell that made the whole building bloom like flowers in the dark night.

The chief of the guard was also set off by the heat wave, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

……

Outside the capital.

Zhu Ping heard the muffled thunder in the distance, as well as the flickering firelight, glanced at it and ignored it, and said to the soldiers beside him, "Continue to march!" ”
