Narciss, who listened to Mendes' words, muttered for a while, said, "Troy and the city-states are weak, and the Anatonian legions are under our close surveillance, so it will be difficult for them to stir up any storms in the short term. But the kingdom of the Seljuks and merfolk had to be taken against it, and now our army was demoralized and its combat effectiveness had dropped greatly. If the conflict between us and Troy increases, if the Seljuks take the opportunity to send troops to attack, I am afraid it will be difficult to cope with the two-sided battle. In the present situation, it is better not to make any extraneous complications for the time being, and you can find a time to go to Troy in person, and say kind words to appease their king, and try to hold them back, and not let the riot happen until we are ready. In addition, we should also send more people to keep an eye on their movements, and report any abnormal movements to me immediately. ”

The general nodded, but said worriedly: "If we can't restrain military discipline, I'm afraid that good words alone will not be able to calm the anger of the other party." ”

The golden-robed mage patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I also know that Lu Dao can't go on like this, and I will find a way in terms of military discipline." Try to assure them that Priam, the king of Troy, is a timid man who will not easily make up his mind to resist, and that everything is up to you. ”

Since Narsis said so, Mendes had no choice but to agree. Looking at the tired back of the general when he left, the golden-robed mage sighed deeply, this war has been fought so far, it seems that it has achieved successive victories, but in fact it is full of dangers, if you are not careful, not only can you not retain the results of victory, I am afraid that even the original territory before the start of the war will not be able to hold......

Chryses hurried into the palace, as he had held the position of high priest for many years. The prestige is extremely high, and the road is naturally unimpeded, reaching the palace in front of the palace.

Inside the government office of the Imperial Palace. Priam, king of Troy, was discussing state affairs with Prince Hector, and the two seemed to be arguing over something, and their voices were so fierce that even the high priest outside.

When Chryses entered the council room, Priam and Hector quieted down, and the king nodded and greeted, "Your Excellency the High Priest is here." Please be seated. ”

The eldest prince also smiled and said, "Your Excellency the High Priest has not seen you for a long time, and it seems that the breath is not bad. ”

Chryses bowed to the two and sat down beside Priam. He asked, "What are Your Majesty and Your Highness discussing?"

The king opened his mouth and was about to reply, but Hector preemptively said: "Now that the Eastern Romans are wreaking havoc in our country, and the people are living in misery, it is simply precarious! As if he sat here and waited to die. It's better to rise up and resist, if you win, you can regain your freedom, and even if you lose, you will die a glorious death, it is better to live in such humiliation!"

When the high priest heard this, his spirits were lifted, and it turned out that Hector had gone with him. With the support of the great prince who was in charge of the elite Praetorian Guard of Troy, things were much more certain.

Chryses turned his head to look at Priam, but His Majesty the King sighed and said, "I also know that it is not possible to go on like this." But the Eastern Romans were strong, and the golden-robed archmage Narcisse was in charge. We were weak, and the Anatonian Legion, the only one we could rely on, was disarmed. How can such a comparison of strength be possible to achieve victory? If we act rashly, we will only lead to greater losses, and if we do not do it well, we will even have the disaster of destroying the country! This matter must be considered in the long run, and we must never take risks until we are fully prepared. ”

The eldest prince was very disappointed, and he wanted to say something more, but he did not know how to persuade him, and finally he had to look at Chryses for help.

The High Priest nodded comfortingly at him and said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, there is now a perfect opportunity to defeat the Eastern Romans in one fell swoop and drive them out of our country completely!"

"Is what you said true?" Hector asked in a loud voice, overjoyed.

Priam was also greatly moved, and immediately asked, "Your Excellency High Priest, please tell me what you have to do at once." ”

Chryses smiled reluctantly and said, "Does Your Majesty remember Dmitry, the son of Marshal Antigonus?"

"Of course I do. The king nodded, "I have met Dmitry several times, and I am very impressed. The little general is young and promising, and he is not inferior to his father, and he is really a rare talent among the younger generation! Why, is this matter related to him?"

The high priest said with a gloomy face: "Just yesterday, the Eastern Roman army stationed in Thebais suddenly surrounded my castle, claiming that I harbored spies and wanted to come in and search, but in fact they wanted to plunder my property. In desperation, I had no choice but to let my daughter run away from the secret passage, but I didn't expect that after Lilith left the castle, she was kidnapped by a group of rebels and insulted by the other party!"

"What?

Hector was so shocked and angry that he couldn't help but stand up and shout: "These Eastern Romans are simply too deceitful, today they dare to break into the castle of the high priest, and even the daughter of the high priest dares to insult them, so what else can they not do? Maybe tomorrow they will enter the palace and commit adultery and plunder to their heart's content! How can we continue to tolerate it, even if we are defeated and die, it is far better than living in such a humiliating life!"

Priam, however, only sighed and asked in a low voice, "What has happened to Your Excellency the High Priest is truly sad, and it is all caused by the incompetence of my king, alas...... I wonder if your daughter is safe now?"

Chryses nodded: "Xie Lu Xie Your Majesty's concern, Lilishi has regained her freedom." In fact, she was rescued by a chance encounter with Dmitry on the way to the abduction! The Major General told me the purpose of his visit to Anatonya after she had escorted her to my castle. I believe that if this plan can be carried out smoothly, it will be enough to drive the Eastern Romans out of our country completely!"

"What is the plan, the high priest, please speak up quickly!" the king and the eldest prince hurriedly asked.

Chryses said in a deep voice, "The Major General intends to infiltrate the camp of the Anatonian Legion and secretly plot against his father's old army!"
