Volume 1: Twilight of the Moon Chapter 19: Killing the Chicken for the Monkey

Eastern Continent, a dark secret room somewhere

"This kid is really a manufacturable material!" said the man in red with a little appreciation, looking at the information in his hand that turned into a ball of fire.

The mottled starry sky gradually became a little chaotic.

When the sun was just showing a little the next day, the gate of the beast camp creaked open, and a dozen black horses galloped out of the beast camp and galloped north.

And these dozen or so horses were the mounts of the black-robed people of the Holy See, and the black-robed people in the lead seemed to be in a trance, and they almost fell off their horses several times during the gallop.

Seeing that the leader looked unrelenting, a slightly bolder black-robed man rode up to the black-robed leader: "Lord Bishop, are you okay?"

Gansius did not pay attention to the inquiries of his men, he now had only one belief in his heart, to reach the border of Niltz as soon as possible, and to complete the task assigned by his master.

"Lord Bishop, Lord Bishop, Lord ....................." The black-robed subordinate didn't seem to give up, and still didn't spare any effort to whisper.

"Get out!"

....................................

Ever since he learned that the leader of the black-robed people was being controlled by himself, Yi Tian felt for the first time that this war was coming to an end. Although the leader of a black-robed man did not know any of his positions in the church, Yi Tian was sure that he must be the core of the church, otherwise he would not have covered his face in a black robe.

Yi Tian stood up from the wooden chaise longue and rubbed his sore eyes, a wave of tiredness followed, and the night of thinking had exhausted all his energy.

"Knock knock!" the knock on the door rang out at an inopportune time, waking up Yi Tian, who was still slightly sleepy.

"Please come in!" the original crisp voice has become a little hoarse due to the exertion of the past few days.

The door opened, and a middle-aged man in a military uniform walked in.

"Tosta, how's the troop doing?" said Yi Tian as he sat back down in the wooden recliner.

"Report to the Commander-in-Chief, that our troops have arrived at the agreed purpose as instructed by you, and General Star has asked me to rush back overnight to report to you. Tosta said as he pulled out a sealed envelope from his underwear.

"This is what the general wants me to hand over to you personally. As he spoke, he handed it over.

Yi Tian took the envelope, "Go back and tell General Star that the real battle has begun, and get him ready to fight around the clock." Give this letter to General Star, and tell him that a small force will be around them in the next few days, and that he should not panic, just open the envelope and get through it safely. As he spoke, Yi Tian handed over an envelope.

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief!" Tosta gave a straight salute and withdrew.

"I really didn't look away!" Yi Tian was a little ecstatic looking at the magic map that covered the entire table in front of him, it seemed that he had been sent there in the right place.

The magical map in front of me not only shows the detailed geography of the Nelsz border to the hinterland of the Sha'e Plain, but even where to ambush, where to ambush, where to station, and where to hide.

"With this map, it looks like my plan can be implemented. Yi Tian muttered to himself.

"The plan has changed! Night, the flying pigeons visit the camp. Yi Tian wrote this line with a stroke of his pen and tied it to the hind legs of a white dove with his own hands.

Since the departure of Gansius and his party in the early morning, the third prince seemed to have a premonition that something was going to happen, and he was extremely irritable all day, looking at the sky in the direction of the small town of Bastino alone, why was the sky so cold and lonely today, why couldn't even a white dove be seen?

And the old prophet Kukunstan, who witnessed all this, became more and more worried in his heart, it seems that the three princes are becoming more and more dependent on this Yitian, and if it is allowed to develop, the consequences will be unimaginable.....................

A white shadow flashed through the air.

The third prince's distracted eyes suddenly regained their brilliance.

It was still a silver light, and the white shadow was gone.

The third prince slowly spread out his right hand.

"The plan has changed! Night, the flying pigeons visit the camp. ”

"The plan has changed! It seems that Yi Tian also expected something. The third prince turned around and walked back to the beast camp.

Welcome!

The three princes smiled and disappeared into the beast camp.

At midnight, the heavens and the earth were plunged into darkness.

The brightly lit orc tent was extremely dazzling in this darkness, like a dimly lit candle trying to release its last bit of life essence, and it survived tenaciously in this darkness.

The black shadow outside the tent flashed, although it was pitch black outside the tent at the moment, but for a master of the level of the third prince, he could notice even the slightest movement of grass and trees outside the tent, let alone a person?

"It seems that Yi Tian's patience is good enough! I will only send someone now!" the third prince said to himself.

However, this sounded like a bolt from the blue to the people outside the tent, and he didn't expect that he would be discovered after just one face.

The tent door opened gently, and a middle-aged man in a jet-black tight-fitting suit appeared in front of the third prince.

"You were the last time you were with ..........................." The third prince was obviously very surprised by the visitor.

"My name is Sriyan!" Srian interrupted the third prince's thoughts.

"I didn't expect you to know stealth, it seems that there are a lot of capable people around him!" said the third prince sincerely.

However, this sounds like a sarcasm to Sriyan, what is wrong with knowing stealth skills, it is not easy for you to find out, do you say that Yi Tian can have more people around him? If there are too many, it will come to this point? Srian had a bad impression of him the first time he saw the third prince.

"What? Isn't it time to talk about Yi Tian's plan!" The third prince was a little impatient, almost every time Yi Tian's plan could open his eyes.

"This is what the Commander-in-Chief wants me to give you," said Sriyan, pulling out a sealed cowhide envelope from his inky black stealth suit.

Three times five divided by two, the three princes tore open the cowhide envelope.

....................................

Time passed, and a whole hour passed, and the third prince raised his head.

"Subtle, so subtle!Sriyan, I don't know now what wisdom is, true great wisdom!" the third prince couldn't help but exclaim excitedly.

"The commander-in-chief wants me to bring you a message. Si Rui quietly looked at the third prince who was so excited that he almost jumped up and said.

"Say!"

"The commander-in-chief said, "Be sure to prepare everything within three days, it must be absolutely elite, the number must be less than two hundred, and you and the Great Prophet must participate. Srian said with a blank face.

"Go back and tell Yi Tian for me, so that he can rest assured that it will be ready within three days. ”

The night was long

The Kingdom of Granton has always been famous for its minerals on the continent of Nabis, so on the continent Granton there is also a nickname "Mineral Country", and it is precisely because of this that Granton has also become one of the richest countries on the continent in addition to several major empires, and it is precisely because of Granton's huge wealth that a large number of countries covet it, even including the Holy See. However, because Granton has the huge backer of the Republic of Nielsez and its own strength cannot be underestimated, although it has been invaded by countless enemy countries for hundreds of years, it has not fallen, and the domestic economy has been running more and more rapidly, until it has finally reached the peak state since the founding of Granton in recent years, and has become an economic power second only to several major empires. At this time, Granton finally made the Holy See, a beast with an extremely sensitive sense of smell, possessive, and thus the war began.

A hundred miles away is the royal capital of Granton.

Because of the wealth of the Granton royal family, the Granton Royal Palace is also magnificent.

The palace is so vast that there is even an artificial hill within the palace. At this moment, the western part of the continent has entered late autumn, and the whole of Granton is no exception, but within this hill, it is full of summer and life. Every tree planted on the hill is a precious species at a closer look, either the Pure Purple Bamboo transported from the Eastern Empire of the distant continent, or the Desert Spirit Thorn transported from the Endless Desert in the far northwest, or the Elven Green Vine in the depths of the Elven Forest, these precious species are not only extremely difficult to obtain but also extremely easy to die after they leave their homeland, so it is an extremely remarkable thing to be able to gather these worldly treasures together, which is enough to see Granton's strong financial resources.

On the hill, between the trees, is a carpet of petals of manbead leaves.

"Brother, do you think Yi Tian can come back safely?"

"Why do you ask? Yi Tian will definitely come back!"

"I'm afraid, I heard Lord Monis from the military department say that our Granton coalition army has retreated again and again on the front line, and even ceded Mosburg to the orcs, I'm afraid that Yi Tian will really ........................... this time" Yuelun said, tears flowed unconsciously.

"Don't worry, Yi Tian will be fine, have you forgotten that Yi Tian has been scheming since he was a child?" he will definitely come back safely!" The eldest prince said with patience, although he knew that the battle situation on the front line was now urgent, once the orcs launched another round of attacks, then the result would be catastrophic, and the Granton coalition army would definitely be wiped out, and at that time, an Yi Tian who did not know any martial arts and magic would probably be more than lucky.

"Brother Huang...... Oh my God, he's going to be fine, is he.................."

Looking at his sister who was in tears, the eldest prince lied for the first time in his life.

"Yes, Yi Tian, he will be fine!" the eldest prince said slowly, looking to the west.

West, Sha'e Plain.

The three-day appointment time is here in a blink of an eye.

"Today is the third day!" the third prince said silently as he looked at the slowly rising sun in the distance.

"I've finally waited for this day!" Yi Tian said with emotion as he looked at the red sun outside the window.

"Yi Tian!" Srian pushed the door and walked in.

"Sriyan, have you picked someone?"

"All the candidates have been chosen, but there is something wrong with the appointment. Srian couldn't help but get angry when he said this.

"What's the matter? Is someone obstructing!" Yi Tian guessed that it must be those generals who were doing something wrong when he heard Srian's tone.

"Who said it wasn't, when I went to transfer people today, those generals were dead and alive, and they said that I was forging a dispatch order," Srian said angrily.

"Oh!" Although Yi Tian knew that due to his age, some of the generals under him were very perfunctory to his orders, but he didn't expect them to be so bold and even say that the dispatch order signed by himself was forged, which was too much to take him as the commander-in-chief of the coalition army!

"What about them?"

Although it was a faint sentence, Si Ruian could hear that Yi Tian was very angry now, very angry.

"The Hall!"

General Headquarters, Hall

"This little hairy boy is too rampant to dare to order me!" said a general who was five big and three thick.

"Hmph, that's right, a stinky kid is a fart!" exclaimed a general with a full beard.

"Yes, I'll see how I fix him later, and let him see what it means to march and fight! Damn! We've been huddled in this town all day since he came, and we've really suffocated me!" shouted the general in the gray cloak and all-steel armor.

"That turtle grandson is a shame for our kingdom.............................."

"General Hearst be quiet, I heard that he is a member of the four great families!" a man who looked like a general reminded softly.

"I'm afraid he's going to do something! The Emperor should send a powerless child, it's a shame for our kingdom!" said Hearst, without hesitation.

"Because of your words, I can make you a prisoner at once, General Hearst!" a cold voice came from the hall door.

The hall fell silent all of a sudden, and the generals who had been scolding all shut up at this time.

"You may look down on me, or you may not take me seriously. But you must remember that now, I am the commander-in-chief here, and I have the right to execute anyone who disobeys my orders, including those present............... General!" Yi Tian slowly walked to the center of the hall, and a majestic momentum erupted.

With Yi Tian's sharp gaze, the generals who had just scolded deeply lowered their heads, there is such a clause in the kingdom's decree, but any commander at the commander-in-chief level who leads troops outside has the right to execute anyone who violates military orders, including generals.

After looking around for a long time, Yi Tian locked his eyes on the general who scolded first.

"You said yes, General Kuwen!"

"Yes, yes," although General Kuwen scolded Yi Tian countless times behind his back, but when it came to the real face-to-face, he didn't have the courage to face Yi Tian directly, and just kept saying yes yes and yes..................

Yi Tian smiled disdainfully, thinking that you were a man, but I didn't expect that you were also a cowardly, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard.

"What about General Sru, ............... then?" Yi Tian looked at the little boy in front of him playfully.

"Lord Commander-in-Chief, I have approved your order, I don't mean to offend you in the slightest!" The bearded man began to panic at this time, just now he was watching others scolding so freely, so he couldn't help but come to two sentences, but he didn't expect that these two sentences were heard by the commander-in-chief, and he regretted it in his heart!

"Since you didn't mean that, then I'll let you go this time, but if you are so "careless" next time, I will let you die a miserable death!" After speaking, Yi Tian did not pay attention to Sru's pale face like white paper, but turned to look at the other senior general beside him.

"General Richbourne! I heard that you were the first place in the military practice class of the Star Saint Light Martial Academy. Yi Tian suddenly asked thoughtlessly.

Richbourne was also confused when he heard this, and nodded stiffly.

"I heard that your opponent for graduation practice was Moji, the victorious general of the kingdom at the time, and it turned out to be a great victory for you. Yi Tian continued his conversation.

"Yes.................." Richborne became more and more confused, this is all some old things, why did he bring it up, is it just a simple talk?

"And after you graduated, you became the youngest general in the history of the Kingdom Army. ”

"Uh-huh..............."

"And as far as I know, there have been no serious mistakes in leading the troops so far, and although there are some defeats, you are still called a genius general!" Yi Tian said, and at this time, his eyes began to accumulate, shooting out a dazzling silver light.

Richburn opened his mouth, but there was nothing to say.

Yi Tian paused suddenly.

At this moment, the entire hall fell into a deathly silence, and the silver light in Yi Tian's eyes became even more abundant.

"But!" Yi Tian suddenly raised his voice, "This time you have made a fatal mistake, not only are you blind to military law, but your behavior makes me have to doubt the reliability of the results you have achieved over the years!"

Yi Tian did not give Richbourne the slightest chance to defend himself.

"The main force of the orcs has not yet come out, the situation is unknown, but you want to go to war rashly, don't you even know the most basic law in military affairs: knowing yourself and knowing that the other side can win all battles?" Yi Tian shouted angrily.

"I, how could I not know? I just ....................."

"What are you? You're just afraid that others will say you're incompetent, you're just afraid that I'll rob you of your head! Your so-called turtle shrinks in my eyes but avoids its edge, don't think that I don't know what you think in your heart, you are aggrieved, you teach me to march and fight, then do you know what marching and fighting are?" Yi Tian could no longer hold back the anger that had been pent up for many days, "Blood, order, blood and fire are the main theme of war! Where were you when the orc vanguard was shouting under the castle tower? You are hiding in the safest corner of the city wall and watching the show, you are watching the orcs shouting at us, you are watching five thousand orcs shouting at our millions of troops! General Richbourne! Answer me, is your behavior called marching, called fighting? Is a coward worthy to be a general!"

And Richbourne simply froze in place at this time.

"Someone! General Richbourne, who has defied his superiors and defied the decree, is now removed from his military post and sent to prison!"

The removal of a general from his military post in public is a right that only the Minister of Military Affairs and the Emperor of the Moon World have! Yi Tian, a fifteen-year-old boy, dared to break this precedent, it was simply bold, and he was openly challenging the imperial power!

Everyone present, including Srian, was shocked when they heard this military order, and each of them knew that once this military order was actually implemented, the consequences would be devastating.

Not to mention that no matter whether he wins or loses this war, Yi Tian will be severely punished by the Moon Emperor, and even his family, as one of the four major families of the kingdom, the Nast family will definitely decline because of this. The Blue Wolf Legion will also be suspicious of the Moon Emperor, and the Moon Emperor will definitely not tolerate such a situation by his side, so he will definitely completely eliminate the Blue Wolf Legion, disband its legionnaires, and remove the Green Wolf Legion from the four major legions of the kingdom. And once things continue like this, after losing one of the kingdom's most elite legions, the kingdom will inevitably cause a series of turmoil, and those countries that have been coveting the wealth of the kingdom will also rise up and attack it, and at that time, the kingdom may really face the situation of ruin!

"Yi Tian, you have to calm down!" Seeing that the situation had reached such an uncontrollable point, Srian hurriedly stood up and persuaded.

"Sriyan, don't say it, does anyone dare to disobey my orders?" Yi Tian had been completely controlled by anger, and because of his sudden anger, the dark power in his body finally overwhelmed the light divine power for the first time.

Outside the hall, the soldiers guarding hurriedly rushed in when they heard this, regardless of the fact that General Richbourne was dragged away by 3721, although they knew the consequences of doing so, but they knew that if they didn't fulfill the commander-in-chief's order now, they might not even survive today!

"That's enough!" Srian couldn't stand it anymore, regardless of the generals present who dragged Yi Tian away.

"Yi Tian, wake up, do you know the consequences of your actions today?"

"Hmph, I don't know, but what can I do? If I don't make a name for myself today, I guess our kingdom will be doomed tomorrow! Now I can only give up the long term to keep the present!" Yi Tian said calmly.

"But in this case, even if we win this battle, you will be severely punished by the Emperor!"

"Alas, what can I do otherwise? It's just that I pity my parents, my family, is it true that God wants to kill my Nast family?" said Yi Tian with a long sigh.

It was close to noon, but the third prince had not received the signal from Yi Tian until this time, and he began to be a little worried, could it be that something happened to Yi Tian?
