Chapter 20. The head of the White Sands King was conferred
Talat stared at the bloody head, and then looked up at Hoover, a gift from the leader of the horse bandits, it was too bloody.
"Who is this person?"
The sand was so thick that Talat couldn't recognize the identity of the head.
Hoover shook his clothes and said lightly: "I heard that Lord Pasha was attacked by horse bandits in the White Sand Settlement, and I was not angry, so I wondered where the horse bandits were so bold, and when I passed by the local area, I happened to meet them robbing a convoy and killing them. ”
Talat chuckled in his heart, the so-called horse bandit is the royal chief of the White Sand Settlement, could it be that Hoover went to kill him?
Even on a hot summer day, a hint of chill creeps up from the back ridge.
This Hoover, what a devil.
"So that's the case, thank you for your help, is there a loss to your team?"
"Lord Pasha, these are just my sincerity."
Vote for the name!
Talat really wanted to look back at Zhou Jinru, how did Mr. Four know what Hoover was thinking when he stayed at home?
"I already know your sincerity, very well, Mr. Benjamin, you are the first person I have seen in good faith since I came here."
The young Pasha calmed himself down as he pondered the words.
In fact, Hoover always gave him a very cold feeling, even if the man was smiling on his face, he couldn't see the slightest gentleness, as if his long career on horseback had destroyed Hoover's human side.
"Lord Pasha, I'm going back to rest, and I'll come back to visit later, and let me leave."
Hoover didn't say anything more, dropped his head, and turned to leave.
When the leader of the horse bandits walked out of the camp, he looked at the crowd of people pouring in from all directions, and the corners of his mouth showed a mocking smile, and he swaggered away.
Mullen, who had arrived in a hurry, looked at Hoover's back suspiciously, and although it was not clear what was happening, news would come soon.
Also confused was Franklin, who didn't show up at the first time, just waiting for the other bandit leaders to move, but Mullen came quickly, but that Jason didn't know what was going on, and he didn't arrive.
"Go check and see what Hoover is doing, his movements are definitely not small."
For a time, all over the Oasis Territory, messengers with a mission set out to explore in a southeastern direction.
……
In the camp, Talat rushed to Zhou Jinru's tent and found him scribbling on a piece of parchment, which he couldn't understand anyway.
"Mr. Four, Hoover really sent me a vote!"
Zhou Jinru didn't raise his head and said, "Did he go to kill someone?" ”
"I haven't said yet, how do you know, did Camp tell you?"
Recently, Captain Camp has indeed gotten closer to Mr. Four, and Mr. Four has taught him a lot of things.
Zhou Jinru stopped the charcoal in his hand and crossed his hands on the table: "I guess." ”
"I don't believe it."
"Well, there are traces of this matter, the key is whether you can find the key to the problem, I didn't know it at first, but after meeting Hoover, I knew that he would definitely do it, because he was a horse bandit, a real horse bandit."
Talat moved a chair and sat across from Zhou Jinru and listened patiently to what he had to say.
"We all know that Hoover has an industry in the Oasis Territory, that is, mining, he has several large mining teams, partners from Victoria to Gaul, but any businessman who can reach out will not let go of such a cheap source stone rough mine, don't look at the low profit, you don't do this business, some people do it, others make money and you are in a daze, that is a loss.
However, the cost of mining is also very low, as long as someone has the tools and adds a vein to start work, the most important thing in Sargon is people, so the question is, Franklin, Jason and Mullen, the three of them are not without funds, why not do mining? ”
Talat frowned and said, "Because the price can't beat Hoover?" ”
"Nope."
Zhou Jinru shook his head: "Because Hoover is too ruthless, it's not cost-effective to fight with him, everyone is here to get rich, don't care what kind of wealth you make, you won't even take your life, but Hoover is different, he doesn't want to die." ”
At yesterday's banquet, it could be seen that the other three people seemed to be very jealous of Hoover.
"But ......"
Talat still didn't get it.
Zhou Jinru said softly: "Because something happened, do you remember, you ordered to kill more than a hundred horse bandits, cut off their heads and pile them into a hill." ”
That thing!
The young Pasha's eyes widened, and his hands grasped the edge of the table, this order was the suggestion of Mr. Four, he just did what he wanted, after all, as the royal family of Sargon, it was also one of the privileges to execute the enemy, but it was that incident that affected the subsequent development.
The heads piled up on a hill are exposed in the wilderness, and it is easy to find out, and an unfavored royal family can do it to such an extent, and there is a master by his side, which will inevitably cause people to reverie.
What exactly did he come to Oasis Territory for?
"I said that you will be the one who breaks the balance, after all, people's imagination is infinite, some things only need to be done for three points, and the remaining seven points will naturally be handled by someone."
Zhou Jinru said the next sentence that shocked Talat.
"Chief White Sands is not a very smart man, I thought I wouldn't see his head until the afternoon, but Hoover sent it in the morning."
Talat's lips trembled, and he said excitedly: "Mr. Four, everything was planned by you!" ”
He was assassinated by the chief of the White Sands, and this man came down from the sky and saved him;
was chased and killed again, and was reminded to prepare again, and fought a beautiful positional battle;
Originally, I wanted to wait for it to be retrieved later, but I didn't expect that only a few days later, someone cut off the head of the White Sands King and threw it in front of him!
"The White Sands King made a stupid decision, I'm just helping him correct his mistakes, no thanks."
Talat killed more than a hundred captives, most of the retreating deserters refused to go back, and the strength of the White Sands King was weakened by half, and he could never hold the White Sands settlement, although it was not a rich place, but it had become a thin-skinned and stuffed bun, and no one would refuse it.
If the White Sands King had been smarter, he should have packed up his weakness and ran away quickly, leaving Hoover to chase after him for one more day, but greed made him hesitate and leave half a day late, losing his life faster.
The assassination of Pasha is a matter of price.
Zhou Jinru originally thought that even if there was no Hoover, someone else would do it, maybe Franklin, maybe Jason, but he didn't expect that Hoover was a tiger, so he took people out of the city to chase him that day, and cut off people's heads in a hurry.
"Until they figure out the situation, all suspicions are in your favor, and when they figure out what's going on, you're already the master here, and they'll have to give in."
