Chapter 111: Take the initiative
In the southeast of the Holy Dragon Kingdom, Iron and Stone City.
In the room, the face of the third prince was very gloomy, and an old slave stood in front of him, respectful.
"The people of the Dark Demon Sect are interfering more and more in the affairs of Ironstone City, and most of the people in the city have also become their believers, if this continues, will Ironstone City still be my Ironstone City?"
The third prince punched the table hard, and the solid wood table was smashed into a dent.
The old slave said: "This situation, it was not that I didn't think about it at the beginning, but at that time, the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom was in a hurry, and there was no way but to cooperate with them." ”
"So what now? Will you give up my fiefdom to them? It's better to be taken away by the demon clan in the first place! ”
The third prince clenched his fists angrily, but he didn't know how to change this predicament.
The terrifying nature of the Dark Demon Cult is gradually manifested.
They continued to perform miracles in and around Ironstone, built demon temples, and then turned the people into their followers through various means.
After these people believed in the Dark Demon Cult, they became extremely fanatical one by one, and they were not even afraid of death, and often dragged the people around them to believe in the religion together.
The government's control over the people is getting weaker and weaker, but the power of the Dark Demon Cult is getting stronger and stronger, which is a vicious circle.
The old slave said: "Now, if you want to change this predicament, there is only one way." ”
"What's the solution?" The third prince grabbed the old slave's sleeve.
This old slave has watched him grow up since he was a child, and he is also the person he trusts the most, and now he is helpless, so he can only pin his hopes on this old slave.
The old slave said: "At the beginning, it was to drive the tiger and devour the wolf, but since the tiger refuses to leave, then we will simply invite another tiger to come." ”
"As the saying goes, one mountain can't tolerate two tigers, and when two tigers enter Iron and Stone City, they will definitely fight! Only in this way will we have a chance to take the opportunity to regain control of Ironstone City when the two tigers are defeated! ”
The third prince's eyes lit up, slapped the table, and said, "Wonderful, this trick is so wonderful!" ”
"However, the Dark Demon Cult is so strong, there are not many people who can fight with them."
"It's okay for the Bright God Sect, but they support my second brother in Xihai City, if they are invited over, my second brother's people will definitely come over, and it will be bad then."
The old slave smiled with Chen Zhu in his chest: "Who said that you must invite the Light God Sect?" ”
"Who's please?" The third prince looked at the old slave blankly.
"Has Your Highness forgotten the identity of the queen's mother?"
"The Queen Mother?"
The old slave nodded, and said: "Niangniang is the county lord of Fenglin County in Jiuli Country, and the old slave also followed Niangniang to the Holy Dragon Country, and there are some old friends in Jiuli Country, if they let Fenglin County send troops in the name of Niangniang's revenge, they will definitely be willing!" ”
When the Holy Dragon Kingdom, the Snow Wolf Country, and the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom were in full swing, the most powerful Jiuli Kingdom never had the intention of sending troops, and sat firmly on the Diaoyutai.
However, the Jiuli Kingdom took advantage of the war to sell a large number of war spirit weapons and various materials at a high price to the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, the Snow Wolf Country, and the now divided Holy Dragon Kingdom.
In this way, they did not need to get involved in the war, but they were able to make countless money and resources through the war.
Once the troops are sent out and they are involved in the war, this convenience no longer exists.
However, now in the name of revenge, dispatching some soldiers and horses will not only reap more benefits, but also will not be involved in a large-scale war, and Jiuli Kingdom will definitely be willing!
This old slave saw through this, so he came up with this idea for the third prince.
Compared with the Dark Demon Sect, there is still a little kinship between the three princes and the Jiuli Kingdom, even if the Jiuli Kingdom wants to control the Iron and Stone City, the appearance will not be too ugly, and the three princes still have room to move.
The third prince is not a stupid person, and after being woken up by this old slave, he quickly figured it out.
He grabbed the old slave's hand and said, "Be sure to let Fenglin County send troops!" ”
The old slave nodded and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, the old slave will do it." ”
The old slave hurried out of the room.
"Come on, serve the food!"
The third prince finally stopped worrying, he was in a good mood, his appetite came, and he wanted to drink happily.
The slave and maid waiting at the door immediately went to the kitchen to prepare food and drinks, and served them as quickly as possible.
……
The southwestern border of the Holy Dragon Kingdom, the city of thorns.
Gu Bei eliminated a group of deserters last year and grabbed a medium-sized flying boat, named Shenlong No. 1, after a long period of training, the soldiers of Thorn City can finally be proficient in control!
"Buzz ......"
On the flying boat, the core formation was activated, countless formations lit up, the entire flying boat was wrapped in a light barrier, the sails were quickly raised, and the banner of Thorn City was also raised.
Shenlong No. 1 slowly lifted off into the air and flew to the northwest.
Among the flying boats, there were three hundred city guards, more than fifty guards, and more than a hundred pirates who had just been subdued, that is, the Thorn Sailors.
Gu Bei stood at the bow of the boat, Ye Wei stood beside him, and Thor leaned back and sat on the deck, although they were all boats, there was still a big difference between one sailing in the sky and the other sailing in the water.
Gu Bei had been dormant in Thorn City for so long, it was impossible for him to be trapped in that small place in the fiefdom of Thorn City forever.
Now that the overall strength of Thorn City has been improved, it is impossible to remain dormant, and it is necessary to take the initiative to obtain more resources and larger territory, so that it can develop faster.
"This time, our target is the Yellow Lion City."
"The iron ore produced by Yellow Lion City is a resource that we urgently need in Thorn City, if we can beat it down, we will be able to make more iron tools in Thorn City in the future, and we don't have to pay a high price to buy it like now."
Gu Bei turned to Ye Wei and Suo Er and said, "After the chaos of the Holy Dragon Kingdom, Yellow Lion City was occupied by a small local sect, and more than a thousand soldiers and horses were gathered. ”
"This sect is called the Iron Sword Gate, and the head of the sect, Pei Nanyuan, is a seventh-order sword cultivator, and he is still a master, but those under him are far behind, and the highest is only the fifth order."
"In terms of strength, we will definitely win, but we still have to be careful, on the battlefield, it is not strange that there is any change, if you take it lightly, you don't know how to die."
"Do you understand?"
Ye Wei and Sol nodded one after another, but their performances were not the same.
Ye Wei kept all Gu Bei's words in his heart, but Sol looked at the sky indifferently, he hadn't integrated into Thorn City yet, he was just forced to work for Gu Bei out of desperation.
Of course, Gu Bei didn't care, in fact, he could sweep away the Yellow Lion City with Ao Xing alone.
But in that case, neither the city guards nor these newly subdued pirates will have a chance to make a move, which is not a good thing for Thorn City.
Gu Bei can't make his own shot every time, right?
Therefore, he had only one goal this time, that is, to kill Pei Nanyuan, and as for the others, they would be handed over to the city guards, escorts, and the pirates of the Thorn Water Division.
