Chapter 403: The White King
Chapter 403 [White King]
Moisa's vicissitudes of life were full of worry. For a lowest-level grassland herdsman like him, he may not care about politics or who will be the king of the grassland, but at least, a war that is about to come, or is already certain to come, will have much impact on the lives of himself and his family, and there will still be many worries.
What's more, this is the edge of the grassland, dealing with the caravans of the Roland people all year round, and the herdsmen living here are much more civilized than those tribes in the depths of the grassland.
It is said that until now, some tribes in the depths of the steppe still retain such cruel punishments as skinning people alive.
"What if...... If the war really breaks out, will you go to war too?"
Chen Daolin couldn't help but ask Moisa.
The herdsman raised his head and looked at Chen Daolin deeply, then he shook his head with a helpless expression: "We have no choice. If war does break out, no one can resist the Prairie King's conscription. The end of resistance is to be regarded as an enemy, and then wherever the Iron Cavalry Army of the King of the Prairie passes, all enemies will be ruthlessly slaughtered!"
"Even if ...... Your Prairie King decided to make a move on the Tulip Family?" Chen Daolin was a little incredulous: "You ...... Can't beat the tulip house......"
Moisa suddenly became a little irritable, he picked up a knife, cut a piece of meat fiercely, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and said with red eyes: "There is only one way to resist the Prairie King, as for the Tulip family...... But it won't kill me. If the conscription order really comes, I will take my best horse, sharpen my scimitar, and take my son to battle...... Every steppe man has no choice. β
Looking at the herdsman's red eyes, Chen Daolin closed his mouth and didn't ask anything more.
That night, Chen Daolin and Lu Gao stayed at the herdsman's house. The hospitable Moisa gave up the largest tent that had been his own. He squeezed into a small tent with his wife and two sons.
Chen Daolin lay on the felt, tossing and turning and did not fall asleep - probably the sequelae of the "sleep therapy" a few days ago, Brother Darling, who slept too much, now always feels too excited.
Lu Gao on the side was lying there, quietly looking at the top of the tent, not knowing what this strange man was thinking.
"That...... Mr. Lu Gao, Prairie ...... Will there really be a war?"
Lu Gao turned over, glanced at Chen Daolin, and sneered: "War? This kind of thing has never stopped on the grassland. The steppe people are different from the Roland people, and the emperors of the Roland people are inherited from the family. King of the steppe people. But it was killed. The strength and prosperity of each tribe must be to climb onto the stage by stepping on the corpses of other tribes. When the old king dies, the new king will be torn to pieces by the wolves around him if he is not strong enough. War, you say? This thing is like a scimitar on the herdsman's waist, and it never leaves. β
"I ...... You know what I mean. I mean, the Prairie King is really going to do it to the Tulips? Where did they get the guts to start this kind of war? β
"Du Weiwei's little chick has been on the throne for too much time. Lu Gao snorted and sneered: "Blame." Blame you little Emperor Shiloh. His coup d'Γ©tat. This has caused a series of ripple effects. The Tulip family could have had a smooth transition, but unfortunately Shiloh killed the emperor and sat on the throne himself. The contradictions within the Tulip House are intensified - you must think that the Tulip Family is powerful. It's true, it's powerful, but it's not as powerful as you think. β
Chen Daolin was a little confused.
Lu Gao suddenly got up, quickly picked up a dagger, and then slashed a few times on the ground.
"Wow. You see. That's the case with the Tulip House right now. It is a very sharp axe, and everyone should be afraid of this axe. But now there are too many problems with this axe. To the north, it needs to take on part of the Kaspersky Line against the Orc Kingdom. This is the natural duty of the Tulip Family. East. The newly usurped emperor has his eye on the Tulip family...... It's not surprising, if I were the emperor, I wouldn't like my kingdom to have an overly powerful family, if I can't eliminate it, then weakening it is the best choice, plus in the process of Shiloh's ascension, he killed the people of the tulip line, so the hostile position of the two sides will not change in the short term. And the west side...... It's the steppe people. β
After finishing speaking, Lu Gao threw the dagger away, clapped his hands, and sneered: "Now the Tulip family is attacked on three sides...... Hmph, if it's just one or both sides, the tulip family's heritage can still hold up, but if it's three-sided...... If all three sides have enough strength to threaten the Tulip family, then the Tulip family's situation is very embarrassing...... Moreover, the person who leads the Tulip family is a little girl who is not convinced by many people. Hey hey ......"
"So...... What's going on with the decline of caravans on the grassland?" asked Chen Daolin.
"What else could it be. Lu Gao rolled his eyes: "The grassland is ready to move, Du Weiwei's chick is also strong, and he refuses to bow his head, so he uses this method to give the grassland people a little power." In fact, she did not do it right, the economic lifeline of the grassland people is in the hands of the Tulip family, once this point is stuck, it is inevitable that someone will bow their heads. But the problem is, no one thought that Shiloh would suddenly succeed in usurping the throne. Now Du Weiwei is difficult to ride a tiger, as the leader of the tulip family, if at this time, she changes her attitude and begins to be gentle with the grassland people......"
Chen Daolin was not stupid, he immediately sighed, and continued: "In this way, not only will it not reduce the contradictions between the two sides, but it will make the grassland people feel that the Tulip family is weak and can be bullied." The steppe people are not Rolanders, the steppe people are wolves, if you are soft, he will be hard, especially if you have just hardened in front of you, and if you are suddenly weak now, it will stimulate the reverie of the steppe people. β
Chen Daolin thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I still feel ...... The Prairie King was too bold. Even if there is a contradiction between the two sides, intellectually speaking, I still don't think about the grassland people. Even if there are many contradictions in the Tulip family, they are by no means something that the steppe people can deal with. I'm willing to bet that if the Prairie King really dared to rebel, the Prairie Iron Rider would dare to cross the Northwest Corridor, cross Mount Kilimano, and set foot in the Tulip Family's territory...... Then all the contradictions within the Tulip family. They will all be suppressed at once! Even Hilo will never dare to take the opportunity to make a move against the Tulip family! This will instead prompt Du Weiwei to take such an opportunity to transfer the internal contradictions into external contradictions, and under the banner of righteousness, all internal opposition voices will disappear, and then ...... The steppe king must not be a fool, if the steppe king's brain is stupid enough to think that these nomadic cavalry of the steppe can defeat the tulip family, this kind of fool will not be able to become the king of the steppe at all!"
"What do you want to say?"
"What I want to say is that even if Du Weiwei cuts off the trade route as a threat, even if the tribes below have a hard time. But the king of the grassland himself will never starve and freeze, and his patience will pass. But once a war is launched, then the outcome of the war will definitely end with the head of the Prairie King being cut off, and there will never be a second outcome! Why did this steppe king dare to do such a stupid thing. β
"First, people are ambitious. Lu Gao sneered: "A nation that has been suppressed by the Roland people for more than a hundred years. When I saw a little hope. Who doesn't want to overturn the mountain that weighs on them? Who likes to keep their lifeblood in the hands of others? As for the second point......
When Lu Gao said this, his tone suddenly became strange: "If you want to blame, blame that little bastard back then for being too careful! Hmph...... Du Wei's descendants, just every one of them is worry-free!"
Chen Daolin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he heard a little taste from Lu Gao's words: "You...... What do you say? Dewey's descendants?"
"The Prairie King himself may not have the courage to do such a thing, but if there is someone behind him to support it. That's different. Lu Gao laughed dryly: "Didn't you listen to Moisa during the meal? β
Chen Daolin grasped the crux of the problem: "White King...... Who is it?"
"A little bastard with the surname White. Lu Gao rolled his eyes: "It's also the bloodline left by Du Wei's bastard on the grassland." That bastard kidnapped a female disciple of our Great Snow Mountain back then, but there were two female magicians, one big and one small, in his own backyard, and he didn't dare to take them home. simply built a harem on the grassland, and then generously gave the entire grassland to the offspring of him and that little lover. Du Wei's descendants have been breeding on the grassland, and they have a high prestige on the grassland, even more popular than the king of the grassland. Of course...... Because this descendant is also a lineage of our Great Snow Mountain, it has also received the support of the Great Snow Mountain. On the grassland, if there is any big thing, the king of the grassland must first consult the white king, otherwise, I am afraid that few tribes will listen to the royal decree of the king of the grassland. β
"Such a cow?" Chen Daolin exclaimed.
He didn't know about it before.
But he smiled bitterly: "Since you ...... This 'White King' is also a descendant of Du Wei, so why did he ask the Prairie King to fight the Tulip Family?"
"Nonsense. Lu Gao sneered: "There is already a grassland king on the grassland, and the white king can only be a prince." There is such a big place on the grassland, and there are too many emperors, and the Tulip family is still pointing fingers all the time, if it were you, you would definitely want to cut off this hand!"
"Yes...... But they are an ancestor, a blood relative. Chen Daolin was confused.
"Blood relative?" Lu Gao suddenly laughed and pointed at Chen Daolin: "I suddenly found that you are so stupid and cute sometimes! What about an ancestor? Isn't that Xiluo, who usurped the throne and killed his brother and became the emperor, also a descendant of Du Wei?"
Chen Daolin was speechless for a moment: "............"
His heart suddenly moved, and he remembered the group of strongmen dressed as aliens in the grassland he had met in the northwest, those guys who dared to openly attack and kill the local army of the Roland Empire! and the leader of that group, the guy who was dressed in purple and full of aristocracy.
I remember the guy left a message before leaving.
His surname is White!
