Chapter 647: Military Secrets



Xu Dong commanded the war as the commander of the Charm Empire. Deep down, he wanted to return to the Martial Continent as soon as possible. People are in Cao Ying, and their hearts are in Han. His days in the Meteor Continent. There wasn't a moment when I didn't want to go back to my own continent.

He also knows. He was driven out of his home by an opponent who was stronger than himself. If you are not completely sure, you can defeat your opponent. He can't go back. Because their homeland is still occupied by others. You have to be strong enough to be stronger than them. to reclaim your lost home.

"You've made no progress. Did you slack off today. This is the question Xu Dong asks himself the most. I have to ask this question almost every day. It's equivalent to beating yourself with a whip every day.

In the blink of an eye. It's been more than two years since I came to the Meteor Continent. In the past two years. He completed the first step of his set goal. Quite good results in the priestly world. More and faster chapters are here. Reached a more desirable location. Able to sit on an equal footing with the ministers of the Charm Empire. It has even won the favor of the past.

What's more. He learned the Plane Spell through Ubula Rah-hime. Although this spell is also produced in the Martial Continent. But the mana it possesses is undoubtedly against the sky. Whether it is Xu Li or Danwu Zhenren. Unless they've practiced the art of Heaven during this time. Otherwise, you won't be able to escape his one hundred and eight pieces of heaven.

Right now. He was doing a little of his own personal work in addition to commanding the war. It is to ask Sha Tuo and others about the issues they are most concerned about. After a combat deployment was done. He kept Shatuo in the tent. He was going to have a private conversation with him.

"Sha Senpai. I'd like to ask you a more intimate question. The king promised me. Said I helped him defeat the Dragonfish Empire. After winning this war. Just let me go back to the Meteor Continent. Do you think the king will break his word? ”

Satuo is the kind of man who is really free and easy. He never hides his opinions. Say what comes to mind. This made Xu Dong very relieved. He thought for a long time, frowning. "Xu Shuai. The king was a man who cherished people. I don't think he'll let you go easily. ”

"Why. Doesn't what he says count? ”

Shatuo said. "I know the king very well. Because the Charm Empire has not produced talents for many years. He wanted to get a military wizard for his own use. As the saying goes, 'It's easy to get a thousand troops, but it's hard to get a general'. Your presence has made his eyes shine. You want to. Will he let you go easily? ”

"But he promised me. After this battle with the Dragons Empire, you will let me go. He can't fail to keep what he promised. ”

Shatuo smiled. "The king always has a reason to keep you. He continued. "Of course. He'll let you go one day. But not now. It was after all the battles had been fought. The Enchanted Empire doesn't need you anymore. He won't just let you go. And it will drive you away. When the time comes, you won't be able to leave if you don't want to. ”

Xu Dong asked. "Why. Fight all the battles. Did he want to conquer the Dragons Empire? Unify the entire Meteor Continent. ”

"Definitely. "Sato. "The king is now preoccupied with himself. How can you think about conquest of the Monster Empire? The war I'm talking about is a civil war. This civil war was already on the horizon a few years ago. It's just that the king doesn't have a full chance of winning. That's why I didn't let it explode. Now he has a general like you. The outbreak of war is already very close. ”

Speaking of which. The first update Sha Tuo lowered his voice. It seems that he is afraid that someone will listen to his words. "It's something that hasn't been made public. I can only tell you the gossip. You must not say it. Otherwise, it will bring the scourge of war in advance. ”

Xu Dong nodded. "I see. I'm sure I'll keep my mouth shut. ”

"Seventeen years ago. Such an incident took place in the royal palace of the Charm Empire. Loki spends the night in Princess Cambela's bedchamber. Update the first time that a group of assassins broke into Kanbela's dormitory to assassinate the king. The king was seriously wounded and fell unconscious on the spot. During the time when the king was healing his wounds. The case of the assassination of the king was tried by the courtiers. A large number of princesses and court maids, including Kanbela, were persecuted. ”

Later, the truth gradually became clear. This assassination of the king was concocted by Hushin Lauersh of the West Palace. She directed and acted in the assassination incident with the ministers he had bribed. Purging dissidents in the name of censoring the Assassins. Thereafter. The Hu Xin family, one of the three major families of the Charm Empire, infiltrated the royal power. Gradually the power of the king was emptied. ”

Shatu continued. "The king's power was weakened. It is simply impossible to compete with the Hu Xin family. He could only pretend to be stupid and forbear. For the time being, keep your vacant position or even your head. But he didn't give up. Concealed from the eyes and ears of the Hu Xin family. A latent force has been secretly cultivated. Even the ministers turned to his side. ”

Xu Dong understood why King Loki was weird. It turned out that he deliberately pretended to be mentally retarded in front of people. Probably among the guards in his palace were the eyes and ears of the Hu Xin family. So he talked to Xu Dong and pretended to be five or six. Listen to what Sha Tuo said. It also proves that Zla Sam did not falsify in the first place. There really was such a court incident.

"Now. The power of the Charm Empire is almost entirely in the hands of the Hu Xin family. And they have 20,000 troops in their hands. The king is nothing more than a puppet played with by them. Once they get tired of playing that day. Will throw this puppet away without hesitation. So. The king had to act by looking at them. even thought of ways to deliberately please them. ”

Shatu continued. "Because the Huxin family has 20,000 troops in their hands. He also controls the forces of the beast tamer's realm. If the civil war is opened. Millions of alien beasts can be summoned to act as mercenaries. The king, who was clearly in a weak position, was lying on his side. On the one hand, they are looking for a wizard with military talents. Because only in this way can we win this civil war with fewer victories. ”

Xu Dong understood in his heart. He doesn't help Loki defeat the Hushin. It is impossible to be released back to the Martial Continent. Since that's the case. He had to figure things out with Shatuo. King Loki and the Huhin family each have their own powers.

"Sha Senpai. According to you. The Hu Xin family has 20,000 troops in their hands. He also controls the forces of the beast tamer's realm. Where is his army. Why don't you join the battle against the Dragon's Empire? ”

Shatuo said. "Listen to me slowly. Hushin Lauersh had eight brothers. Secretly, he is known as the 'Eight King Kongs'. The Boss is in charge of the internal affairs of the Empire. He is in charge of the army's grain, grass and logistics, and the second and third are in charge of military power. The second is the generalissimo of the Charm Empire. The third is the second marshal. Most of the army is in their hands. At this he pointed to the tent. "I, the third marshal, have such a large amount of capital. In total, less than five thousand troops. ”
