Chapter 143: The Military Council of the Fortress

"Death sir, Mondstadt!! Commander," one of the soldiers shouted in horror, and the surrounding soldiers looked at the headless corpse, their morale was gone, and they saw tens of thousands of rebels coming over in black, and their slow steps, as if it were the rhythm of death, tormented everyone's heart. w?

"Run! go to the gold mine fortress and ask General Rusif to send a large army to quell the rebellion!" shouted an adjutant, riding a sand beast, leaving his own soldiers, and scurrying in the direction from which he came.

Li Jun clenched the Xuandao, pointed forward from afar, and shouted: "Everyone listen to the order, charge!"

Tens of thousands of soldiers saw that the other party was in a state of rout, and under the gaze of Li Jun's eyes full of monstrous murderous intent, they all beat a spirit, beat the water dog, and rushed over with a whining cry.

Tuk!Tuk!Tuk......

The severed shield bearer and the crossbowman worked together to form a shield array, and pieces of arrows flew out of the shield, slashing their heads and covering their faces.

Yes......

Dozens of soldiers lay in pools of blood, covered in arrows.

The shadow of blood and death stirred up the blood of tens of thousands of thugs, all of them with red eyes, clenched the crude weapons in their hands, and rushed over in black, like a torrent, rumbling and resounding.

Burst!

The rhythm of the earth was turbulent, and the sand suddenly rose and fell, and all the shield-bearers fell, cut into flesh by the red-eyed thugs in front of them, and the blood was blurred.

"Retreat!

More than a dozen soldiers hurriedly rode on the sand beasts, discarded all the heavy weapons, only wore a set of light armor and an iron sword, and rushed wildly, and several flags fell with a "dang", printed with the appearance of a three-headed lizard, and the flag representing Rusif was also discarded by the soldiers.

Although the three-headed lizard is not the most powerful demonic beast in the desert, people in the other world often regard the lizard as an ancient Chinese dragon totem-like existence. It represents power and power.

And Rusif's three-headed lizard army is the most powerful army that gallops through this desert and is invincible here.

......

"Victory in the First World War! Let's eat meat and drink wine tonight, and have a celebration banquet!" Li Jun looked around at all the soldiers.

The soldiers secretly sneered at each other, hugged their arms and catered perfunctorily a few times.

Tens of thousands of soldiers against a transport team, if this can't be won, then it's really hell, and after death, they won't have the face to fly to the kingdom of God.

Li Jun's eyes swept over the faces of the soldiers. Mocking, teasing, laughing...... It's like looking at a fool, a madman.

Li Jun suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart, it was not easy to govern a city, and it was even more difficult to manage a city that was ignorant, backward, dilapidated and evil, and unpredictable.

Killing is definitely not the best way, if Li Jun has soldiers under his hands to use, how can he use this gang of wall grass?

Killing is threatening, killing too much will only cause the opposite effect.

Li Jun returned to the city hall in annoyance, and the work of cleaning the battlefield was handed over to Tuo to complete.

Because of years of gold mining, Tuo's body is very strong, and his thin body is "inflated" day by day. Now people are very lean.

It's just that he has already passed the best cultivation time, and the highest achievement in this life is the peak of the sword warrior, and he can't cultivate his own fighting spirit.

All the children were forcibly sent to school by Li Jun to study, and the current courses are only cultural courses and swordsmanship courses, perhaps after the situation is stabilized, a magic class, potion class, refining class, etc., divided into categories, free elective courses.

"Today's victory is a cause for celebration. But why is the master so troubled?" Blaise came over with a pot of herbal tea and a few melons and fruits, put them on the table next to Li Jun, and squatted down, gently knocking Li Jun's legs.

"A bunch of wallgrass. I don't think anyone will dare to go out and line up to meet the battle when Rusif's army arrives. Li Jun sighed weakly.

"The strength of Rusif has long been ingrained in the hearts of the people of Edbele, like a 'god', and today's victory can only play a role in stabilizing people's hearts. Prove that you have the confidence and strength to compete with the most powerful man in the whole desert. Blaise said softly.

"If Rusif really comes with a large army, Blaitze, do you think I might be able to defeat him?" Li Jun suddenly asked.

Blaise looked up and was slightly stunned. .?? `

Looking at her expression, Li Jun knew the answer.

"There are no absolutes in everything, since the gold mine fortress was attacked by the wildfire sand bandits, he Rusif did not dare to leave the fortress easily, and must stay there all the year round until he completely solved his own serious trouble! If he acts, there are only two kinds, one is to drag off! cut off our water supply, and kill us to death, so that most of the people in the city die, and when he has no combat effectiveness, he will send troops to recover this place, and the other is to send his own right-hand man to lead the ...... Well, there shouldn't be a lot of people, just two or three thousand people, carrying artillery, bed crossbows and other weapons of mass destruction, and forcibly attacking. Li Jun analyzed.

......

Eight hundred miles away from the city of Edbele, in front of a fortress.

"Open the door!

The tranquil desert suddenly became noisy on this day.

In the distance galloped over a dozen light cavalry, dressed in the armor of Russif's soldiers.

An officer looked at him with a lookout glass, waved at his own soldiers, and shouted, "Open the door for them!"

Rumble!

The huge and heavy iron door, pulled by the machinery, slowly opened a gap.

More than a dozen light cavalry roared in, shouting in panic, "The sinners of Edbele have rebelled!

"What did you say?" the officer asked, holding one of the soldiers in shock.

"Sir, the sinful people of Edpilet have rebelled, stormed the town hall and killed Mondstadt!" the soldier reluctantly stood still, gave a military salute to the officer, and repeated.

"Go, follow me to General Rusiff. The officer hurriedly tugged at the soldier's collar and ran briskly towards the headquarters.

~~

At 9:17, inside the headquarters of the gold mine fortress.

Rusif and his officers, cronies, and senators gathered in the headquarters of the fortress, dressed in light armor and a sword at the waist and abdomen, as if it was a military meeting before the battle.

"A bunch of stupid sinners dare not know the height of the sky. Disobey the rule of the great General Rusif, and I think everyone will be cut off!" shouted a bearded officer, with a violent face.

"General, I don't think this is right. Although most of those sinners are ignorant, they are really shrewd, and it is impossible not to know the terrible consequences of rebelling against you, and we only need to cut off their water source in less than half a month. More than half of the people in the city are going to die!" said one of the senators, confused.

"I heard...... Did the Paperson brothers meet the new Chief Executive when they came?" the other senator glanced at Captain Paperson, who was sitting nearby.

Papson nodded and said, "That's true, but when the wildfire sand bandits attacked, I left him there and left him to fend for himself, under the sword of those bloodthirsty barbarians, even if he could escape a life, but in the vast desert, there was no water, food, road signs, and human guidance, I was afraid that he would be trapped here alive." ”

"Why didn't you kill him in the first place?"

Paperson said calmly, "I said it before. The young man was very powerful...... I've lost! And in the case of a sudden attack by the Wildfire Sand Pirates, at such a critical juncture, where can I care about mobilizing all the force and killing a man who seems to be going to die?"

"He's strong, isn't he?" said Rusif, who was quietly listening to the discussions of his cronies like an old pine.

"Yes, General, this man's tricks are very mysterious and weird, like evil magic. It's a matter of swordsmanship. Papson said.

"Praise the great goddess, how tenacious life is!, according to the soldiers who escaped, the man who killed Mondstadt appeared to be a young man with features different from ours. ”

Rusiff tapped his fingers "dangdang". The senators under his command gradually connected the relevant information and summed up a general conclusion:

The new administrator, the hereditary viscount Li Jun, successfully escaped from the pursuit of the Wildfire Sand Pirates, arrived in his own territory, the city of Edbelai, killed the chief judge of Balohifer and the secret envoy of Seret, took control of the city, and raised an army of at least tens of thousands of people. And I thought of a solution to the problem of water and food!

"Incredible! I would never believe that he has the ability to create things like a 'god' and solve the fundamental problem of water!" said the bearded officer with a skeptical look on his face.

"Dear Senro, but this is the case, if he does not solve the problem of food and water, which are necessary for survival, where will he have the confidence and courage to rebel against the great General Rusif and intend to reclaim the territory that belongs to him?" said one of the senators.

"General, this man can't be killed, we must keep him in our hands, in case something goes wrong with the gold mine, a heavyweight will be thrown out of the pot. ”

"Yes, since the fortress was sacked by the old fellow of the wildfire, the whereabouts of those five carts of gold are still unknown, like a sharp sword hanging over our heads! Even if we are guilty, with the exculpation and protection of General Gliek and the imperial bigwigs, at most it is just a dismissal and dismissal due to the implication of the guilt of the officials......"

Rusiff listened carefully with a calm expression, and after hearing what the senator said, his brows suddenly furrowed slightly.

Rusif shook his head secretly.

Mining gold mines without permission, concealing them and not reporting them, is not a year, not two years, not five years, but more than 20 years, or even longer!!

Under the nose of the church, under the light shining, openly challenging the authority and status of the church, once it is exposed, it is not as simple as killing a person.

The people of the Inquisition are not stupid, more than twenty years have passed, and there is not a single imperial official, and now the anomaly here, with the ability of Rusif as a city guard chief, how did he do it?

Kona, who was sitting silently on the side, bowing his head and saying nothing, suddenly got up, knocked on his chest under the attention of everyone, and said loudly: "Dear General Rusif, please give me an army of 3,000 people, I am willing to make meritorious service and wash the city of Edbele in blood!"

Kona, the chief of the garrison of the gold mine fortress, is equivalent to the second-in-command here, because the last time Rusif traveled to inspect the city of Edbele, he was suddenly attacked by the wildfire sand bandits, resulting in the loss of the fortress, although he organized his forces in danger, beat the wildfire sand bandits out, and carried out a successful counterattack, but five carts of gold were robbed, the canals, granaries, etc. were destroyed, and dozens of mine slaves escaped, so far everyone was pushed to the edge of the cliff.

One mistake is a catastrophe!

Everyone looked at Kona with a complicated expression.

It is because of this person's negligence and carelessness that they are afraid and anxious every day.

Although most of the miners were captured by Rusif and executed in front of the rest of the miners, there are still some miners whose whereabouts are unknown, and the situation here has been known by the wildfire.

As Rusif's greatest enemy in life, will he let go of this opportunity to get rid of Rusif in one fell swoop? )
