Chapter 22: Creating Confusion

In the City Lord's Mansion of Carter City, City Lord Carter Rahi was furious: "This is the thirteenth time that it has been robbed, and the loss has reached nine million gold coins, and the other families in the city have lost tens of millions of gold coins, these bandits even dare to ask for ransom, it is too rampant, Wallace, order down, send 20,000 city guards to the designated place to ambush, and when the hostages are exchanged, they will be wiped out." ”

"Yes, City Lord."

The bandits' dens around Carter City became a temporary base for my squad, and for ten days they robbed the caravans of the nobles, first bringing people down with smoke, pulling valuable goods, kidnapping the nobles with weight, and then starting to extort ransom.

At a three-way intersection two hundred kilometers away from Carter City, fifteen tied nobles were looking at the official road in the distance, among these people was the precious son of the city lord, and each of them was offered a high ransom. The castle lord's advisors suggested that all the ransom money be replaced with money, and some gold and silver coins should be put in, so that the weight of the ransom could hold back the kidnappers, and then catch up with them and annihilate them.

Carter Rahi proceeded according to the plan, after seeing the hostages, he put down dozens of boxes of coins, and the two sides sent people to hand over the money with one hand and the other hand, and when the last son of the city lord was traded, Carter Rahi watched the carriage pulling money go to the dense forest, and with a wave of his hand, the city guards who had been in ambush for a long time rushed out・・・・・・

"Whoosh, whoosh..." Hundreds of black things shot into the crowd, puffs of smoke came out, and then hundreds, and after a dozen waves in a row, some of the city guards fell, losing their combat effectiveness, and when they rushed out of the smoke and climbed the hillside, they only found that the carriage was empty, and dozens of boxes of coins were missing.

This time, it was only two squads and 200 people who came forward to collect money, using space rings to collect money, using tear gas and smoke to disintegrate the combat effectiveness of the city guards, and retreating without hurting anyone.

The lord of the city dispatched 20,000 men, but only a few tin cans were recovered, and a few hundred soldiers who were wounded by bows and arrows, so he had to carry thousands of bewitched soldiers back to the city. From then on, the nobles of Carter City never dared to take a step forward and cowered in the city. This happened many times in the surrounding cities, and I used this insidious method to awe a lot of wealth.

At the same time, in the eastern part of the No. 1 continent, the prince of Wu failed to propose to the princess of Yue, and launched a war against Yue on the grounds of losing face. At the same time, he also posted a list of kings, recruited talents from all over the country, and promised to let the princess marry and give the title of duke. Such a heavy reward attracted everyone to watch, and I was accidentally squeezed in front of the king's list.

"Huh..." A strange wind blew, maybe the king was not fixed, and it was blown off by the wind, and it fell right on my chest, and I was pulled into the palace by the soldiers, and I saw the queen of Yue and a cadre of civil and military ministers.

The Vietnamese are blue-eyed, white-skinned, and blonde-haired, while I am black-haired, black-skinned, and yellow-skinned. The queen asked, "Dear sir, where are you from?" ”

"Your Majesty, I am a tourist from the far south, and the wind blew my chest, and then I saw you," replied without humility or arrogance.

"I see." The queen was disappointed.

In fact, I have been in the Yue Kingdom for several days, and I know that the Yue people are simple and simple, the queen is deeply loved by the people, and I also know the predicament of the Yue Kingdom at this time, and my heart is soft: "Help them." ”

So I spoke, "Your Majesty, I have a weapon in my hand that can turn the army from defeat to victory. ”

"What? Pls sir, is this true? The queen exclaimed.

"Yes, it's just that my weapon is in the hands of my fellow innkeepers, and I need to go back and get it."

There are a hundred crossbows in my space ring, each of which can fire five in a row, with an effective range of three hundred meters, and a city-guarding crossbow, ten in bursts, with a range of one thousand meters, which is the most powerful weapon to kill the enemy in the era of cold weapons. So, accompanied by the soldiers, I went to the place where I lived, and asked the guards to carry a crossbow to the palace of the king of Yue with ten crossbows on their backs, so that the ministers on the scene could see the power of crossbows.

"Your Majesty, this city guarding crossbow is a thousand gold coins, a small crossbow is two hundred gold coins, I will teach you how to make arrows, if you need a large number of crossbows, I will send someone to transport them, cash transactions."

"Okay, then let's order 1,000 crossbows and 10,000 crossbows, sir, when can we send them?"

"Eight days at the earliest, I need to rush back non-stop."

After the business was done, I left two guards to supervise their arrows, and I immediately flashed them.

In fact, this war was secretly provoked by the state of Chu, it wanted to take advantage of the defeat of both countries, and the state of Chu had secretly ordered a million troops to secretly assemble to go to the Wu-Yue border, but unfortunately it happened to be bumped into by me. I immediately ordered the troops to move out, occupy the three cities in the south of the Chu State, and sent special forces to infiltrate the capital of the Chu State and loot the property of the imperial palace, so as to delay the pace of the Chu State invasion, and wait for me to return from the west of the mainland before making the next move.

In addition to the main building, a simple house for 20,000 people has been completed next to it, the land of the estate has been fenced with barbed wire, barracks and training grounds have been built on the edge of the forest, the land has been mechanically organized, wheat and potatoes have been planted, and the harvest will be made in a few dozen days, which can meet the annual food ration requirements of tens of thousands of people.

The old butler and a dozen old servants arrived as promised, but the Agni Mercenary Regiment came with thousands of men and horses, and when I saw it, I asked in surprise, "Fierce Thunder, what's going on?" ”

"My lord, there are seven hundred of them who are the original team members, I heard that our body has recovered, they rushed back, and the others were brought back by them, a total of 5,180 people, now many mercenary groups can't receive business, I heard that many nobles in the city have been robbed, and even the city guards have suffered a big loss, I heard that the Agni mercenary group is going to reopen, and many people are admired."

"And what about the old people and children in the west of the city, when will the slaves be bought?"

"My lord, I have already made arrangements, and as soon as our group settles down, in three days, the ten thousand slaves will arrive, as well as more than three thousand old people, women and children."

"Okay, the mercenaries are stationed in the barracks in the forest, and the rest of the people are in that row of houses, and ask old George if they have any questions."

Fortunately, I made good preparations and built a large warehouse, which is enough for 50,000 people.

After a busy day, Lie Lei reported to me about the situation of the Agni Mercenary Group at dinner, and I didn't say anything after listening to it, but just said lightly:

"Go and call your confidant brother over and I'll tell me what I'm going to do for the future."
