Chapter 54: The Mysterious White

The capital of the Assman Empire, Hailan City.

It was late at night, and the lights in the queen's bedroom were still bright.

Empress Linmei looked at a piece of information seriously under the lamp, and Prime Minister Adolf stood far away. The mysterious woman in white sat at the table not far from the queen, picked up the letters on the table, looked at them carefully, and sometimes buried her head in deep thought.

"Are these useless orcs so hungry that they can't lift their knives? 50,000 people attacked the cold city with only 20,000 people, and they were defeated!" Throwing the information in his hand to the ground, Queen Lin Mei said hatefully.

Prime Minister Adolf hurriedly stepped forward and bent down to pick it up: "Your Majesty is angry, there is really a reason for this. ”

"Adolf, tell me where this mysterious power came from, and why did such a force appear in the territory of the Fire Cloud Empire, but we don't know anything?"

After preparing to attack the Huoyun Empire, Lin Mei offered very favorable conditions to the orcs, inducing the orcs who fight the autumn wind on the Huoyun border every year to send a large army to attack the cold city. According to her plan, once the orcs invaded the west of the Huoyun Empire and attracted the forces of the Huoyun, she would wave her army north, forming a two-sided attack. It's a pity that the orcs failed to open the west gate of the fire cloud, but were defeated in the cold city.

"Your Majesty, I have sent someone to investigate this matter. The defeat of the orc Cold City was caused by the sudden appearance of a mercenary group called Black Hawk. This mercenary group has only more than two hundred people, and its leader is called Warhawk, and it has dozens of mages, and even a mage. The orc army lacked magicians, and the leader of the third orc legion, Liehu, was unexpectedly killed, so he retreated in panic. Adolf said respectfully.

"The Black Eagle Mercenary Regiment has never appeared in the Fire Cloud Empire, nor has it landed, so we don't know the details of it for the time being. I have arranged for a full investigation into its origins. ”

"Dozens of magicians? That sounds a bit like a myth. In the Blue Moon Continent, I have never heard of an organization that can have such a number of mages. Could this Black Eagle really be a hidden force in the Fire Cloud Empire?" Lin Mei asked with a frown.

"According to the news reported by the orcs, except for the magicians, the members of the Black Hawk have super defense and attack power, which is extremely difficult to deal with. If this is the secret power of the Fire Cloud Empire, then we can only stand still for the time being and find out the bottom of the Black Eagle Mercenary Group first. ”

Adolf reported what he knew to Lin Mei in detail.

"Well, everything needs to be decided before it happens. The military operation against the Fire Cloud Empire was temporarily canceled, but the operation against the hot sky continued. You have arranged for the men to investigate the details of the Black Hawk, especially the War Hawk, and report back to me as soon as there is news. Linmei's anger gradually subsided, and her tone returned to calm.

"Yes. Adolf replied.

"If the orcs did not complete what they agreed to and agreed to their terms, they were null and void. ”

"Sister, this matter still needs to be considered. Listening to Lin Mei's words, the woman in white raised her head. Although his face was veiled and he couldn't see his face clearly, his beautiful eyes were full of wisdom and looked aura.

"What is my sister's opinion?" Lin Mei seemed to be extremely gentle with this sister, and asked softly when she heard the words.

"Give them the grain as promised. Orcs are only trying to survive for the right to live, and their lives are indeed miserable. What's more, they have done their best this time, and if you do this, it may make the orcs feel cold and lose their help out of thin air. ”

The woman in white said slowly.

"Sister, you are always so compassionate, but your words are quite reasonable. Let it be up to you. ”

After saying that, Lin Mei turned around and instructed Adolf: "Give them food, but they must promise to cooperate with us in the future." Go down. ”

After Adolf left, Lin Mei also walked to the table and sat down.

"Sister, what do you see from these letters?"

"Sister, are you testing me?" said the woman in white smiled.

"No, I just think that with your wisdom and as an outsider, you might be able to see it more clearly. ”

"The letter mentions that the Sith is unwilling to cooperate with you in the attack on the Fire Cloud. The reason why the Sith king did this was that he was afraid of his lips and teeth, and secondly, he sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight, reaping the benefits of the fisherman. However, the letter also mentioned that the power of the Sith Minister of Military Affairs, Shearer, had swelled dramatically, and his power was tilted towards the government and the opposition. The two are contradictory, and there must be something else hidden in them. The woman in white raised a letter in her hand, and then analyzed it carefully.

"Oh?" Lin Mei was a little surprised. She could guess what the Sith thought, but there was another point that the woman in white mentioned surprised her.

"What's going on here?"

"Sister, if you think about it carefully, a military minister is in power, which is not normal in itself, at least it shows that he is extremely keen on power. If you had changed your sister, would you allow such a minister to exist? This shows that the Sith kingdom is already in a situation of a slave and a bully, and the royal power has been greatly weakened. The use of troops abroad is a good opportunity for the Minister of War to seize power, so how could he miss it? Unless he has other intentions. ”

After speaking, the woman in white picked up another letter.

"My sister's analysis is very incisive!" Lin Mei sighed, "Your wisdom is inferior to my sister's." ”

"Look at this again. Emperor Huoyun's **Minister Yan Tian personally led people to pick up the prince from the Fengyu Plain. I boldly guessed that this prince must have been in distress while he was away, and then escaped by chance, so he was greeted by Yan Tian himself. In this hypothesis, who would attack the prince? I'm afraid it could only be someone who wants to be the emperor of the Huoyun Empire, right?"

"Yes, this matter must be the beginning of the struggle for the power of the Fire Cloud. Lin Mei nodded.

"Come to think of it, the Emperor of the Huoyun Empire is also aware of this, and he sent a large team of people to greet the prince in person, which also has the intention of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger. However, although it has an effect, it may also make the other party jump off the wall. Therefore, if my assumption is correct, then the future situation of the Fire Cloud Empire is worrying. Therefore, if my sister can be patient, the opportunity may appear soon. ”

After listening to the analysis of the woman in white, Lin Mei nodded silently.

"Sister, I hope that you can do your best to protect the people. After all, what you're trying to do is eradicate the nobility, not mercilessly kill. The woman in white looked at Lin Mei and said.

"Sister, do you think I'm a bad woman?"

"No, you, like me, are just a woman abandoned by fate. The woman in white shook her head sadly.

"Perhaps, you already knew what kind of person I am, so you will occasionally help me with some ideas, right?" Lin Mei smiled, "If you are the military advisor, I think the Asman soldiers will be able to win." ”

"My sister has won the prize. In fact, if you look at the lives of the people of Asman and listen to the voices of the people, I will know that you still have mercy for the poor in your heart. As for being a military advisor, Xiaomei doesn't dare, these are just words on paper, and they will mislead the country and the people. The woman in white smiled indifferently.

"How's your affairs going?" Lin Mei glared at the woman in white helplessly, and asked softly.

"Well, it's going well, thanks to my sister for supporting me. You treat me like a sister, and try your best to help me, it's difficult for my little sister to repay this favor. ”

"Well, why are you so persistent?

"At least, I've done my best. If this is the fate of the case, there will be no regrets left in my heart. The woman in white said gloomily.
