0516: War, Assassination, Development.
Spring is in full bloom, and Beigang has started a new round of spring plowing.
At noon, Qiao Ji took Reina and others back to the castle after inspecting the farmland.
Backyard of the castle.
Xue Nai looked at Qiao Ji who got off the carriage, and said softly, "Protagonist, Richard is already waiting in the living room.
The white cat girl did not follow to inspect the farmland, but stayed in the castle to study the new menu.
Richard arrived in Hailan City more than an hour ago, and has been waiting for the report in the reception room.
"I see." Qiao Ji reached out and rubbed the white cat girl's head.
Da da da
LLELLEL-------
Qiao Ji took Lian Xin, Lei Nai and others to the reception room of the castle, while Dinah left for Luxiu City two days ago.
Luxiu City is the closest super city to the imperial capital, and the Holy League has also developed quite well there.
Ten minutes later, the reception room.
As soon as Qiao Ji entered the reception room, he waved his hand to signal Richard not to stand up, and asked, "How is the situation?"
"Return to the lord, the navy has won a complete victory, the death toll of the navy is 89, and the number of wounded is 320..."
Richard adjusted his heavy mood and continued, "A total of 32 pirate ships and 120,000 gold coins were seized..."
He reported the casualties and the confiscated trophies in detail, and handed over the last counted list.
"Continue." Qiao Ji said with his hands folded on the table.
Richard took off the treasure tied behind his back, put it on the table and pushed it forward, and said respectfully, "My lord, this is the treasure of the pirates—the Royal Arrow Bow."
Qiao Ji slightly raised his eyebrows when he saw the treasure, picked up the treasure and inspected it, and found that it was not much different from an ordinary bow.
It's just that there is an extra red spar at the handle of the bow, which is the alien organ of a monster. The material for making the bow is ordinary ivory, and the overall color is off-white.
"How to use it." Qiao Ji tapped the bow body with his fingers.
"My lord, you only need to touch the alien organ before shooting an arrow, and you will be able to hit a hundred shots after the bowstring is lit." Richard said immediately.
"Okay." Qiao Ji nodded slightly.
Richard blinked his deep eyes slowly, and continued to report, "In the end, there were 1,122 people who surrendered in the pirate group, and all of them were sent to reform through labor`々.
"Okay, the pensions for the dead sailors must be paid in place, and the wounded navy should be given enough holidays to rest, and the navy that participated in the war this time must be rewarded.
Qiao Ji took a sip from his teacup, and added, "Also, let's see if we can cultivate the navy that has performed well this time..."
"Yes, my lord." Richard responded immediately.
He reported several things one after another in the reception room, all of which were related to pirates and the navy, before leaving the castle.
"Tat Tat Tat
As soon as Richard walked away, Lei Nai received the letter from the courier and immediately handed it to Qiao Ji.
Qiao Ji was just about to get up and leave the reception room. After receiving the letter, she sat down and browsed again. It was a letter from the Misty Court.
Looking at the contents of the letter, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he said with a chuckle, "Okay, the two princes have already started a war.
The rumors that Qiao Ji let people spread before made the Noble Phantasm Masters of the two sides keep trying.
The war between the Noble Phantasm Envoys only caused the knights to suffer, and it lasted for a few days, and finally nothing happened.
Lian Xin was only slightly surprised when she heard this, then she calmed down and said, "That's right, it's been half a month since spring." This war came a bit later than expected.
The people in the Misty Court have been staring at them all the time. No one took that step a while ago, but now a war broke out suddenly.
"My lord, where did the two princes fight?" Lei Nai asked suspiciously.
Qiao Ji handed over the letter and said, "They started a war between Dongpu and Xiqiu, and this war is expected to last for a while.
Dongpu is larger than Beigang, Nanyuan and Xiqiu combined, and it is the largest piece of land.
It adjoins the South Garden, and the two lands are separated by a branch of the Rhine River, where the two princes met.
"The war in Dongpu is expected." Lian Xin narrowed her orange eyes and said.
The eldest prince can retreat to the imperial capital to replenish supplies, and the second prince can retreat to the South Garden to replenish the state.
Misty Court has already investigated it, and the two princes have been sending people to test each other at the junction of Dongpu and Nanyuan.
Qiao Ji looked at the map and guessed at that time, probably guessing that the two princes would choose to fight at the junction of the two lands, and now it seems that this is indeed the case.
"Who do you think the Lord will win?" Lei Nai suddenly asked curiously.
Qiao Ji stroked his chin with one hand, and analyzed, "Judging from the number of treasures and knights owned by the two princes, the eldest prince has the upper hand."
"Then it seems that the eldest prince will win the laurels soon." Lei Nai said, shaking the cat's ears.
Qiao Ji waved her index finger, and said with a chuckle, "Not necessarily, according to the intelligence, the second prince frequently dispatches envoys with treasures to assassinate the nobles on the side of the first prince."
"My lord, why didn't the second prince dispatch all the treasures to the frontline of the war."
Lei Nai tilted his neck, wondering, "And what about assassinating the nobles on the side of the prince? Isn't it delicious on the battlefield?"
"The second prince's move is to make the nobles who support the eldest prince afraid, so that they dare not send knights to support the front line with all their strength.
Qiao Ji picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, said with a smile, "In this way, the support from the eldest prince will become less and less."
He put down his teacup and continued, "The second prince is stalling for time and wants to wait until the eldest prince has no backup support.
A lot of information could not be concealed from the eyeliner of the Misty Court, and the Holy League ambushing all over the empire also kept sending information back.
It can be said that Qiao Ji has been receiving information from the two princes in the past few days, and as long as he carefully analyzes it, he can know the pros and cons of it.
"Then look at it this way...the second prince might win again?" Lei Nai was a little confused.
"Yes, if there are no accidents, but we have to help the eldest prince to make this fire burn hotter." Qiao Ji put down his teacup and said calmly.
"But my lord, if the eldest prince wins, wouldn't it be more disadvantageous for us?" Lei Nai didn't know much about the war.
But the black cat girl knows that if Tyon, who is now the great emperor, wins the battle for the throne, "he will have (Yanuo Zhao) the most resources.
Because he is the great emperor himself, it would be more justifiable if he killed the second prince, and there would be more nobles who supported him.
But if the second prince wins, it will be different. Originally, the only nobles who supported him were the Cameron family and several marquis families.
Even if the second prince ascended to the throne of the great emperor, the number of nobles who supported him would still be the same, because he would not want all the nobles on the side of the first prince if he had an introduction in mind.
"It's just to help him assassinate some nobles from the second prince's side, so that the second prince can come up with a new way to deal with the eldest prince."
Qiao Ji folded his hands on the table, lowered his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "This war must be prolonged."
He didn't intend to let this war end so quickly, he wanted to develop as much as he could.
"Understood." Reinai Mosai nodded suddenly.
It was the first time that the black cat girl knew that there were so many sayings on the battlefield, which she would never have imagined.
