The blackmail of the 30,000 gold coins from the return to the bank was in hand, and with the 20,000 gold coins advanced by the Duke of Tingting, Sauron already had 50,000 gold coins. This amount of money www.biquge.info enough to pay for the hiring of 20,000 mercenaries.

Next, it is necessary to wait for the storm on the other side of the royal city.

Either way, there will be an outcome to this storm.

Now the Duke of Tingting is still leisurely in the sea area of Troubled Stone Island, but he clearly knows in his heart that his good days will soon be over.

His army must give an explanation for the destruction of the returning naval army.

If Sauron and Ranshi Island can't be involved, then the matter of the Gui Clan's naval army attacking Chaotic Stone Island will not exist, and it will become a great sin for the Gui Pavilion army to unilaterally annihilate the Gui Clan's naval army.

In the past few days before the storm, both Tingting and Sauron were making final preparations to protect Rocky Island.

Numerous ships come and go between Ranshi Island and Izumo-gun. Millions of catties of salt from the stockpile were shipped out, and thousands of salt slaves from the other two salt farms were brought in.

Along with it, there were countless grains, vegetables, fruits, and armaments. The most important thing is the army guarding the two salt works.

The defense force of Ranshi Island is too weak, and it is far from enough to rely on the hundred warriors of the Suo family.

The guards of the other two salt farms of the Duke of Tingting combined with nearly a thousand people, just enough to fill the void of force on Troubled Stone Island.

Not only that, but among the 3,000 sailors brought by the pavilion, more than 1,000 people were crossed off their names in the military register, and they were considered to have died in the naval battle with the Gui navy. And the more than 1,000 people who disappeared out of thin air naturally stayed on Rocky Island to guard the salt works here.

In this way, Sauron's rocky island has nearly 10,000 salt people, more than 2,000 troops, and its power has swelled nearly tenfold.

Next, instead of digging new salt pans, the most urgent thing to do, the construction of the pier and the construction of the castle. Instead, it's the top priority.

With these armies and the newly built castle, although Ranshi Island is not impregnable, it is extremely difficult to break through without 5,000 naval troops.

The Gui Clan's naval army has been completely wiped out, and the entire coastal forces of the Angry Waves Kingdom. There should be no single prince who can assemble 5,000 naval troops. Therefore, for the time being, the rocky island salt field should be safe.

Not only that, but ten of the eighteen Lou ships brought by Ting were also crossed out and drifted away by him, as if they had been sunk in the naval battle that night.

And then. The ten ships were repainted black and became the escort fleet of the Rocky Peninsula.

For the earth-shattering wealth of Ranshi Island, the Duke of Tingting gave almost everything, including his own cheeky face.

......

Eleven days later, the storm on the royal city officially broke out.

The eunuchs sent by the palace, as well as two thousand cavalry led by Jian Ning, entered the Izumo county town and brought the king's will.

Duke Tsutei left Ranshi Island and headed for the Izumo County Castle. Sauron was disguised and incognito. Let's go.

In the Izumo Gunjo Mansion, Duke Tsutei knelt down to receive the order.

In the decree, the king reprimanded the pavilion for being absurd and unruly, costing the people and money, and being bold enough to not only forcibly invade the sea areas of the princes, but also to attack the princes' armies without seeing clearly, which was a completely unforgivable sin.

However, Nian Zaiting immediately handed over a letter of guilt to Wang Cheng and sincerely apologized to the Earl of Guixing. Therefore, capital sins can be avoided, but living sins cannot be escaped.

Demote his title to the second rank and the duke becomes an earl. and ordered the palace dragon guards to escort Duke Tingting back to Beijing. Lock down the mansion and stay in solitary confinement indefinitely.

Not only that, but Izumo Gunmori Zuojima was also implicated, stripped of his official position, and escorted back to Wangcheng to be questioned, because he provided the building boat and the navy army to Otei.

And the pavilion was brought to all the soldiers who participated in the attack on the Rocky Island. All the generals were expelled from the army, expelled from the rank of sergeant, demoted to civilians, and escorted to the royal city for questioning.

All the soldiers were scattered, driven out of the army, and exiled for thousands of miles, to be punished with hard labor.

After receiving this will, Duke Tingting's heart trembled, and his whole body was cold!

This punishment was unprecedentedly severe, and the forces of the princes and nobles of the world were so powerful?

Although the fleet of the Pavilion should not break into the sea area of Guixing, let alone annihilate the Guishi naval army, it must give an explanation to the princes Guixing.

However, this punishment is too harsh and cruel.

However, after the cold all over his body, the Duke of Tingting still breathed a long sigh of relief.

At least, Rocky Island has been preserved, and the industry of more than 100,000 or 200,000 gold coins per year has been preserved.

There was not a single word in the will that mentioned Sauron, nor was there a single word about the Rocky Peninsula, as if the storm had nothing to do with Sauron. It's just that the pavilion is unreasonable and bullying.

......

The pavilion was about to be escorted into the royal city, and in the post house outside the city gates, he said goodbye to Sauron.

"Sauron, see it, feel it. Duke Tingting said: "How amazing their power is, Your Majesty has to back down." Ten years ago, who in the world dared to be so disrespectful to His Majesty, and now he dared to directly bully him. ”

Sighing in pain, Duke Ting said in a trembling voice: "Just for one reason...... His Majesty has no children. The wings are full, and those nobles and princes have the backbone, and they really took the opportunity to jump out. ”

Once separated, the tripartite forces of the aristocracy and the princely group were united, and they were completely unprecedentedly powerful, and even the king had to back down.

In the war for the crown of those years, almost all the nobles and princes supported the Lan. didn't expect the mutant to come out of it, and had the last laugh. From that time, the contradictions between the king and the nobility were deeply planted.

Immediately after the mutiny, a great purge was carried out among the nobles, which made the nobles noisy and restless day and night.

Then he supported a large number of civilian elites, divided the nobles and princes, and easily beat the aristocratic class.

If it continues like this, although the nobles hate it in their hearts, they can only pinch their noses and kneel in front of the mutiny to sing conquest, and dare not have any second thoughts.

But......

Time passed year by year, and soon the king was fifty years old, but he still had no heirs, only one daughter.

And soon, the news was confirmed that the mutant king had a secret disease, and it was impossible to have any more sons and descendants.

Suddenly, everything changed!

At this time, the prince of Li, who was protected by the Divine Dragon Temple. Appearing in front of everyone, he has grown.

Thus, in the shortest possible time, all the nobles and princes rallied around the detachment.

And then. Everyone was waiting for the day when the king would die. It was also from that day that the king changed from offensive to defensive.

Even though everyone was still afraid of him, they still bowed down to him. But as everyone knows, the situation is no longer the same.

A king who has no heirs. Almost everything was lost.

"I've been demoted from duke to earl, it's nothing, the officers of the army under my command are basically hard to live. Duke Tingting said: "I will do everything possible to save them, but they are basically certain to die." And those 1,000 or 2,000 soldiers will be reduced to slavery, toiling day and night, and it is estimated that they will not live long. ”

Then, Duke Ting covered his heart and said, "I knew it would be so tragic, I should have crossed out all their names." All of them were left on Rocky Island. ”

Sauron was so depressed that he could hardly breathe, and he really didn't expect that the situation would be so tragic.

The detachment that has always been forbearance, and the cabinet that has always been forbearance, exploded directly without much warning this time.

"Do you know what all this sacrifice is for?" asked the Duke of Tingting.

Sauron said: "In order to keep the salt works of the Ranshi Peninsula, in order to make an annual income of more than ten or two hundred thousand gold coins, it is also ...... For me. ”

"Yes, all these sacrifices are for our cause. We are in the same cause. Duke Tingting said: "However, I can only help you get here, we can only help you get here." The rest is up to you. ”

Then. Duke Ting handed over a thick dozen golden tickets and said, "Here are 50,000 gold coins, I have already sold more than a dozen properties with all my money to make up enough for so much, you take them all." ”

Suddenly. Sauron shuddered suddenly, he only advanced 20,000 gold coins to the Duke of Tingting, who knew that he actually sold his property and made up 50,000.

Duke Ting continued, "I didn't plan to end so soon, but ...... Your shocking performance disrupted all the rhythm and forced me to leave early. You should know who I represent, right?"

"Yes. Sauron said.

Of course, he knew that the pavilion was certainly not representing himself, but some supreme lord behind him.

If, compare this struggle to a chess game.

On this chessboard, there are two horses, two cannons, two chariots, two soldiers, and two statues. There are also countless soldiers.

On Sauron's side, there are only three pawns at the moment. Sauron is a pawn, Zoren is a horse, and Zoren is a veteran.

Now, in order to protect Sauron, the pawn, has successfully crossed the river, and the horse has been completely trapped.

This struggle is the most terrible and largest struggle in the history of the establishment of the Raging Wave Kingdom, a terrifying storm.

Duke Ting said, "Our enemies are far stronger than us. They are the vast majority of the nobles in the world, the vast majority of the princes, and a large part of the stupid civilian elite. We are outnumbered, weak and strong, and what we want to accomplish is a battle that is almost impossible to win. ”

Sauron nodded, of course he knew how difficult it was, almost against the whole world.

The king has no children, and he wants to completely subvert the traditions of the kingdom, and even the traditions of Middle-earth, and make the woman king.

This is to be the enemy of the world's traditions and all the nobles in the world.

Inadvertently, Sauron was caught up in this earth-shattering storm and became the pawn at the forefront.

"Three months later, in the battle of Tianshui City, their army will not end, and our army will not end, everything depends on you. Dian Ting continued: "What you have to face is Suo Hanyi's army, Nurdan's rebels, and the army that Dian Ning brought to Tianshui City early in the morning, a total of thirty-five thousand troops. ”

Sauron nodded, memorizing every word of the Duke of Pavilion.

"The battle of Tianshui City is not only a war for you alone, but also the first battle between us and the world. Duke Tingting said: "You can only win, you can't lose." Do you know what will happen if you lose the battle of Tianshui City?"

Sauron said: "You know, you will give up the fight and admit defeat completely. The prince will succeed to the throne smoothly, and you will completely kneel and submit to him. ”

Sauron was the only pawn on the chessboard who could cross the river. Once this pawn is abolished, then the game will be lost without playing.

"That's right!" Duke Tingting said, "At that time, you will die, your sister will die, and everyone in the Suo family, including everyone on Rocky Island, will die cleanly." And the huge foundation on the rocky island will also completely fall into the hands of others. ”

Even, at that time, even Sauron could guess the proportion of the spoils, and the return was minus 30%, the prince was 40%, and the power of the nobles and princes was left 30%.

In order to survive, in order to keep the foundation, in the battle of Tianshui City, Sauron can only win, not lose.

Once you lose, you will never recover.

"Then all the burden falls on you. Duke Tingting said, "Then, I will go back to the royal city to confess." ”

With that, Duke Tingting walked out of the post house, and then raised his hands.

Several eunuchs stepped forward and put shackles cut out of paper and put them on his body. Because he is a royal family, he can't use real shackles, so he uses paper shackles instead, but this is already a great shame.

Then, four dragon guards carried his fat body onto a carriage that was closed on all sides.

"Let's go. Ten thousand cavalry commander Jian Ning gave an order.

Suddenly, thousands of elite cavalry, escorting the endless prisoner cart, headed towards the royal city.

Among this group of prisoners, the Duke of Izumo was the first, the Izumo Prefecture Shouzo Island was the second, and behind were all the officers of the Izutei army, as well as the civil and military officials of Izumo Prefecture, a total of hundreds of people, all wearing shackles and locked in prison cars.

The mighty procession of prisoners, in the midst of the spitting of the crowd, headed towards the royal city.

Sauron looked at the team, almost breathless.

And all these sacrifices are just for one thing, to protect him, a pawn, to cross the river smoothly.

......

Night falls!

Sauron has been completely transformed and disguised. His face, coated with ginger liquid, revealed a sickly yellow. On his chin, he had a thick beard, and his hair had become half gray and half white.

At this point, no one could recognize him. There are no more night terror feathers around him.

Riding alone, heading southwest. Sauron, the pawn, has begun to cross the river!

And once he, a pawn, really crosses the river, there is no room for retreat, and of course he will turn into a car.

Next, he can only win and not lose every move.

The first step, in the shortest possible time, conquer Yan Naer, from the mind to the body completely conquered.

The second step is to get her father's Silver Wolf Mercenary Group and use it as his core army.

Now, he went to Yan Naier, looking for her father's invincible mercenary group.
