After learning what happened from Aruba, Mo Yan thought silently for a long time and finally came to the conclusion that someone was behind it. If at the beginning, the Council City's declaration of war on Thunder Bluff was a forced decision due to the economic erosion of Thunder Bluff.

It would be strange for the Speaker to dissolve the city council and proclaim himself emperor. Mo Yanke didn't think that Thunder Cliff had forced the speaker to the point where he was going to launch a coup d'état, and he had to fight to the death with Thunder Cliff. Apparently there is someone behind the scenes, in order to mess up the situation in the whole Elan.

As for who this person or force is, Mo Yan thinks that the Maro people are the most likely. It was inevitable that the Maro Empire, which had recently gained a lot of advantages in the war with Carthage, would gradually shift its attention from Carthage to Elam. What's more, Maro's Shadow Organization is a well-known existence in the Central Plains country.

The fact that he rebelled against several important officials and lords of Carthage, and led his army deep into northern Carthage at the moment of breaking through the border, cutting off the south from the north would not have been possible so easily without the help of these bribed officials. And although Carthage didn't want to mention it, the reason why the south was not able to support it was also because of the shadows' provocation and demagoguery.

But for the current situation, Mo Yan does not intend to intervene immediately. The civil war of the Salts will also have a lot of benefits for him, not only will it increase the sales of weapons and equipment, but also a large number of war materials will be sold very well. If the war had dragged on for a long time, life would have been more difficult for the Salts.

At that time, it will be a good time for Mo Yan to buy people's hearts, and Elan, who provides food, lodging and work, will receive a large number of refugees whose families have been ruined by the war. Expanding the population of Thunder Cliff and allowing for the development of a more comprehensive industrial area, Thunder Cliff's products are not just focused on weapons.

Therefore, for the imminent outbreak of the civil war in Elan, Mo Yan felt that it was necessary to maintain a wait-and-see attitude. And if the fire is not strong enough, Mo Yan doesn't mind secretly adding to the fire, so that the civil war will break out more violently and lastingly. At present, the SS is close to the completion of training, and Mo Yan is very confident.

In particular, Regel and Matthew completed all the subjects very well. Now, whether it is the technique of assassination or the various methods of listening and stealing information, they have thrown Marlowe's so-called shadow several streets. After all, Mo Yan originally did this, and he was clear about these things.

At present, Mo Yan has ordered the full production of weapons and equipment, as well as materials needed for various wars, such as fire oil, crossbow arrows and other items. Together with what the Monster Legion didn't have to use last time, these supplies would be enough to arm an army of at least 8,000 men. Just waiting for orders from various cities in Elamand to come to the door, the equipment of Thunder Cliff is already very famous in Eland.

Just when Mo Yan was waiting to hold the popcorn and watch the Elan coalition army fight to the death with the Council City, a message that made Mo Yan's face twitch reached Thunder Cliff. The caravan he sent to Carthage was robbed, and two ships and a lot of magical materials were stolen by a group of pirates as they sailed back to the Mississippi River Bay.

The ancient profession of piracy will never seem to be extinct at any time. Even though he has come to the other world, Mo Yan still can't get rid of these annoying guys. Because pirates can be said to be the source of Mo Yan's fear of water, he reminded Mo Yan of his first mission. According to the commission of a wealthy family, go to rescue a rich man who has been kidnapped by Somalia.

It was Mo Yan's first mission after he was trained, and although Mo Yan performed well, a companion who was also a newcomer was nervous, and when he killed the sentry, he alarmed the resting pirates. So a firefight inevitably happened, and because it was a sneak rescue mission, there were not many people in Mo Yan's team at that time.

Unable to suppress the huge number of pirates, they could only quickly find the rich man in the yacht and retreat towards the dinghy they had infiltrated. And when the team retreated to the side of the ship, Mo Yan was shot with a fishing net gun by a pirate who suddenly rushed out and fell into the deep sea. Mo Yan, who was almost drowned that time, has had a psychological fear of sea water since then.

"Pirates, I've never heard of a damn pirate on the way from Carthage to Fishscale Bay!" Mo Yan tore the small note in his hand with a carrier pigeon and gritted his teeth, "And I can't do anything about him now." The port of the bay is already under construction, and Kdelia can't leave there. ”

"I can go and burn them!" The black dragon looked at the angry Mo Yan and stood up and raised his hand and shouted, "It's just a bunch of stupid pirates, I'll fly to their ship and burn them all to death!"

"With such a large sea area, can you find them?" Mo Yan sighed and said, "If you don't find their lair, it's hard to confirm when they will appear on the route. And they have already robbed my goods, they must have left the place where they robbed to sell the stolen goods, and those two new ships alone are worth a thousand gold coins!"

"Then we don't care?" Jones asked, a little strangely, "If these pirates are not dealt with, Carthage's merchant ships will not come to Fishscale Bay." ”

"If you don't come now, you won't come. Mo Yan said nonchalantly: "Now I don't plan to make money on this route, the civil war in Elam will be a big market." We can't afford to supply two battlefield weapons at the same time, so I'll have to give up Carthage, which is far away, for the time being, and I'll make them pay for those pirates sooner or later. All pirates must die!"

............................................................

The Ankud meeting, however, was at an impasse in Ankud's parliament chamber, as Azela had expected. Elam, who had never faced such a state of affairs, was caught in a wrestling affair between the parliamentarians. Ankud proposed that their men take command of the coalition forces and conduct the Parliament City Crusade. And on the grounds of the strong defense of the parliament city, each city was required to hand over as many soldiers as possible, as well as materials or money for the battle.

But representatives of Arica, another city, did not agree with Ankud's proposal. Five or six villages close to Arica also chimed in with Arica's proposal. Arica believed that Arica had the most outstanding commander in all of Elam, and that if the command was not in Arica's hands, Arica would not surrender his warriors.

As the third largest city in Elam, although the population is smaller than Ankud, the culture is much more prosperous than Ankud. Arica has the best academy in Elam, and it produces a lot of political and military talents every year. The village chiefs of the villages around Arica were also trained by Arica's academy, and the village was also closely intertwined with Arica economically, so it was natural to agree with Arica.

In the end, the members of this council were divided into three factions, the regional forces in northern Elamite led by Ankud, the southwestern forces in Elamite led by Arica, and the emerging southeastern forces in Elamite led by Santa Fe. Except for a few villages such as Cabinda, which remain neutral and say they will follow whatever the outcome of the council is.

All the delegates who came to the meeting chose their forces according to their mutual relations. Constant bickering in the council chambers in an attempt to convince the other side to comply with their proposals and put control of the coalition forces into their own hands. And there are quite a few differences in the money and materials paid.

Most of the villages wanted to be delivered, according to the old law, at the rate of sending twenty percent of the warriors in the village. However, the large cities demanded that the village hand over more soldiers and supplies on the grounds that it would be extremely difficult to attack the Parliament City. For almost ten days, the parliament was engaged in pointless quarrels.

Later, it turned from a simple discussion to a mutual attack, and even a big fight in the council chamber. The quarrel eventually led to an even worse incident, when one of Arica's representatives was assassinated on his way back to his residence after a day of altercation. Arica announced that she would not participate in the parliament, demanding that Ankud, who is the most suspected, hand over the murderer, or declare war on Ankud.

After Arika's representatives left Ankud, the villages that agreed with Arica also left Ankud. Delegates who believe that Ankud planned the assassination no longer think that Ankud is a safe place. And Santa Fe saw nearly a third of the people leave, and in the end he had to choose to leave Ankud.

The original coalition parliament evolved into a divided ending. Mutual distrust and contradictions have arisen between cities. The Elamite coalition army, which was still ready for a war, was defeated before it was formed, and the cities were divided after Azela of the Parliament City announced his accession to the throne.

The assassin was nowhere to be found, and everything was in the shadows. The man from Maro in the city of Parliament smiled with satisfaction as he looked at the report handed over by his men. Representatives of several cities who were absent never appeared in Ankud, but no one cared.

All the cities are gearing up for war, but not just to attack the Capitol City. Elam, as Maro had hoped, was on the verge of civil war.
