Chapter 170: The Orcs Come (Part II)
"Tuya, the chief of the Howling Moon Department of the Beast Clan, greets His Majesty the Emperor on behalf of the High Priest of our clan. Tuya bowed respectfully.
To be honest, Tuya didn't want to come as an envoy at all, because in his opinion, the beast clan side had experienced a big war, although the loss was not large, but the clan was in short supply at this time, and it was time to recuperate. In order to prevent the Blazing Empire from taking the opportunity to attack the Orcs with the Caesar Empire at this time, Tuya had to come as a messenger, hoping to form an alliance with the Blazing Empire, after all, Tuya has been in human society for many years and is the most familiar orc.
"The messenger is exempt. The current emperor of the Blazing Empire, Lance III, said with a pleasant face.
Tuya thanked him and got up.
"I wonder what is the important matter of the envoy's coming?" Lance asked knowingly.
Tuya didn't go around in circles when he heard this, and said bluntly: "The high priest of my clan came to admire your country, so I came here this time for the alliance between my clan and your country, I wonder if His Majesty the Emperor is willing to agree?"
"This ......" Lance hesitated, and before he could speak, a general in armor and a sword was waiting beside him, but shouted sharply: "The beasts invaded our border before, burning, killing and looting. Now I want to form an alliance with my country and still say that I admire my country, hum, if I really admire my country, how can there be a previous war, isn't it a big joke for the envoy to say this!"
"Dare to ask the general?"
"The Great General of the Blazing Empire, the Yan family, the Yan Maniac!" said the military general proudly.
Tuya's heart tightened when he heard this, and on the way to the Blazing Empire, he heard that in order to convince the emperor of the Blazing Empire to agree to an alliance, he had to convince two of the three powerful ministers of the empire. Now that the great general Yan Mad has jumped out to oppose it, then the hope of forming an alliance is pinned on convincing the left and right ministers.
After sorting out the rhetoric, Tuya said: "The general's words are wrong, it is precisely because our clan admires your country that our clan did not continue to march after breaking through the labyrinth. You must know that the Lost City is the most important barrier of your country on the Yanhuo Hills, if our clan really has ill intentions towards your country, you can cross the Lost City and go directly to the capital of your country. But my people don't, and what is the reason? It's not because my people have admired your country for a long time. ”
"Nonsense!"
Yan Li was furious, he really had a long experience today, and he originally thought that this orc messenger was a guy who didn't understand the text and ink. Unexpectedly, it was the same as the left and right sides who had been against him, it was a belly of bad water, obviously the beast clan was not rich in food and retreated, and he was stunned by what he said to be admiring the Blazing Empire, phew, bullshit, pure bullshit!
"Okay, don't make any noise. ”
Lance III suddenly spoke: "General, the Tuya envoy has come from afar and hasn't had a good rest, and you are making such a big noise, doesn't it seem that my Blazing Empire doesn't know how to be hospitable." ”
"I don't dare. Yan Li hurriedly confessed.
"Alright, Envoy Tuya, I need to discuss the alliance with my ministers, and in three days I will give you an answer anyway. After a long journey, please go down and rest first, messenger. ”
With that, Lance III waved his hand, and immediately two chamberlains stepped forward to lead Tuya.
Tuya knows that the matter of forming an alliance is indeed a big matter, and it is very common to discuss this kind of thing in human society, as for the outcome of the discussion, it is not up to Tuya to influence. After saluting Lance III, Tuya left the main hall after the chamberlain.
When Tuya's figure disappeared outside the hall, Lance III waved his hand and retreated left and right, and asked the guards on duty in front of the hall to close the door of the main hall, and after doing all this, Lance III asked, "What do you think about this matter?"
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks it is impossible. The right minister was the first to speak against it.
The minister seconded. The same is true for the left side.
Yan Mad glanced at the left and right in surprise, to be honest, he originally thought that he would have to argue with these two old immortals who had always liked to oppose him today, but who would have thought that this time the three of them would have surprisingly the same opinion on the issue of facing orcs.
"Oh, the left and right ministers and the general, it's rare that the three of you agree on the same thing. Lance III was also surprised.
"Tell me your reasons. ”
"Yes. ”
The left and right sides said yes at the same time, and then the two glanced at each other, and then the left minister spoke: "Back to Your Majesty, the old man thinks that this attack on the Caesar Empire by the beast clan is really a stupid move. As everyone knows, the Caesar Empire and the Magic Guild have always been friendly, and the headquarters of the Magic Guild is located in the imperial capital of the Caesar Empire. Attacking the Caesar Empire is tantamount to challenging Caesar and the Magic Guild at the same time, you must know that the president of the Magic Guild is a famous saint-level powerhouse in the mainland, Lord Fa Shengshalan. ”
After a pause, Zuo Xiang continued: "And the destructive power of magicians in the war is obvious to all, this is just an ordinary magician, if it appears at the level of Lord Shalan, not to mention that only 200,000 orcs is estimated to be two million old men are not enough for Lord Shalan to kill." Therefore, in order to prevent our country from being dragged into the water by the beasts, the minister thought that he should refuse to form an alliance with it. ”
"That's right, what Zuo Xiang said Yichen thought in his heart. The right minister also stood up and said.
Lance III pondered for a while, and when he saw Yan Mad with an expression that wanted to speak and stopped, he thought that Yan Mad was going to stand up again to refute the words of the left and right sides. To tell the truth, he has been in power for so many years, but he is also used to seeing all kinds of quarrels between Yan Mad and the left and right, and at the same time he is amused in his heart, he said: "What advice does the general have?"
"Oh. ”
Yan was taken aback, and immediately reacted, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister also thinks that what the right minister said is reasonable, but he just said a little less." ”
"Which point?"
"The purpose of the orcs' expedition this time. Yan said in a deep voice.
"Indeed, this point is really not mentioned by the right minister, I don't know what the general has to say?"
"In fact, the purpose of the orcs is very simple, that is, to proclaim their force to the countries of the continent. Yan said slowly.
Shh
Yan Mad's words made Zuo Xiang sneer, although he and Yan Crazy temporarily stood in a bunch in the general direction this time, it didn't mean that he wouldn't pick and choose some eye drops or something for Yan Mad.
In his opinion, Yan Mad is looking for trouble, you say that you Yan Mad said that the answer is not good, you have to say that the purpose of the beast clan is to promote force, and there is a promotion of force to preach to the strongest empire? Isn't that looking for death? Although everyone says that the strength of the five empires is about the same, everyone with a discerning eye knows that the strongest of the five empires is the Caesar Empire, which is superior to the other four countries in terms of national strength and military strength. If it weren't for that, how could the other four nations allow Caesar's empire to occupy the richest continental center for thousands of years.
"Lord Zuo Xiang seems to have some objections to Zaixia's opinion?" Yan glanced at Zuo Xiang.
"That's right, I think your guess about the purpose of the orcs is wrong, General. ”
"Why?"
"The reason is very simple, Lord Right also said, the Caesar Empire has the help of the Magic Guild and Lord Fa Saint Shalan, even if the Orc Clan wants to promote force, it will not be stupid enough to go to a Fa Saint to fight hard. Zuo Xiang said with a sneer.
"Heh, maybe you don't know yet. Yan Mad sneered and said, "According to reliable information, the legendary beast of the beast clan, the king of land warfare, has returned to the Arad Continent, and the strength of the adult Beamon giant beast is at least the holy rank. With the confidence of the Beamon Giant Beast and the high priest of the Beast Clan, Sagra's own strength has reached the Holy Rank, with such strength, the Beast Clan will not dare to go head-to-head with the Caesar Empire? Don't be funny. ”
"What! Beamon Behemoth! Their High Priest is also a Holy Order!" Before Zuo Xiang could speak, Lance III was shocked.
After being stunned for a long time, Lance III realized that he had lost his temper and quickly coughed a few times to hide his embarrassment. Then he quickly asked, "General, is this news true?"
Yan Madness clenched his fists and said: "The news of Your Majesty's words is true, and the minister failed to inform Your Majesty at the first time, and the minister is guilty." This news was also learned from the surviving soldiers of the Lost City before he came, and it was a captain who told him the news, so there should be no falsehood. ”
"Then look at it this way, if we don't form an alliance with the beast clan, then wouldn't it be equivalent to offending two Holy Orders at once? Lance III smiled bitterly and then fell into deep thought.
"The minister is guilty, the minister really didn't know that this news misled His Majesty's judgment, please forgive Your Majesty. Seeing that the situation was wrong, the right minister hurriedly changed his words.
Seeing this, Zuo Xiang also hurriedly stepped forward to second.
After scolding the two of them in his heart, Yan Mad did not speak, but looked at Lance III who was lost in thought with worried eyes.
To be honest, after learning the news from Zhang Liang before, Yan Mad was also shocked and inexplicable, but after discussing with Yan Xiaotian and Yan Wolf, Yan Mad already had a countermeasure in his heart. But whether this countermeasure can be implemented depends on whether Lance III can withstand this pressure, if he can't resist and choose to form an alliance with the beasts, then the Blazing Empire is really finished. If he can withstand it, Yan Mad will naturally inform him of this strategy.
After pondering for a while, Lance III spoke: "This news is too shocking to the widow, the widow's heart is very chaotic now and he can't make a decision, you all go down and let the widow be quiet first, and when the widow understands it, he will naturally discuss it with you." ”
"Yes. ”
All three of them quit at the same time.
As soon as he got out of the hall, Yan Mad was too lazy to argue with the left and right, so he directly shook his hand and walked towards his house. And the left and right phases also rarely did not ridicule Yan Mad a few words, and both of them left with a preoccupied look.
......
As for Tuya on the other end, he was leisurely drinking wine and eating food in the post house at this time, enjoying life. After all, for Tuya, even if he is already a little chief, the beast clan has always been barren, and these delicious and delicious drinks can be enjoyed once in a rare time, so it would be a great loss not to take the opportunity to eat more.
As he was enjoying his meal, he heard a guard shouting outside the door, "Lord Zuo Xiang has come to meet the envoy." ”
Tuya was startled, and then hurriedly asked his subordinates to clean up the table, and then sat at the table and waited for Zuo Xiang to arrive.
"I came uninvited, disturbed the envoy's rest, and I hope the envoy will not blame him. Zuo Xiang walked in through the door with his hands bowed.
"Where, I don't know what is the important matter for Lord Zuo Xiang to come and find him?" Tuya said curiously.
"It's nothing more than a visit to the messenger. Zuo Xiang glanced around pretendedly.
Seeing Zuo Xiang's appearance, Tuya already understood in his heart, waved his hand and retreated from the guard, then got up and closed the door before saying, "Now you can talk about it, Lord Zuo Xiang." ”
