Water Margin people

After leaving the city, Xin Qiji went straight to the Alps. There was only one way to leave here.

Xin Qiji was leading light cavalry and it only took him half an hour to see the target.

"With so many carriages and horses, are you really serious about escaping?"

Xin Qiji sneered and said that one should travel light when escaping so as to escape from danger.

The people in front of him were sitting in horse-drawn carriages that were so packed that four horses could hardly pull them.

The Pope's team, which was on the road, became alert and discovered the army chasing them from behind.

"Who are you!"

The leading guard immediately led people to block the road.

"Ooooooh la la! Oh oh la la!"

Xin Qiji and others shouted in the Xiongnu language which they were not very proficient in.

"The Huns? Aqiji?"

The leading guard was a little puzzled. At this time, Aqi Ji should be leading the Huns to fight against Qi.

"What are they shouting?"

The guards looked at each other in confusion; they could not understand the Hun language.

Xin Qiji didn't care about all this. He led his men forward at high speed, without saying much, and started killing directly.

In the dark night, when the guards saw who was coming, the butcher's knife was already in front of them.

Dozens of guards were killed in an instant, and Xin Qiji led his men straight in and surrounded the convoy.

The Vatican guards finally reacted at this time, but it was too late. They were no match for the enemy in their haste.

"Everyone, come out! Don't let me invite you!"

Xin Qiji shouted at the carriages.

There was a commotion in the carriage, but no one came out. Those who were once high and mighty now wished they could dig a hole and hide in it.

"You ungrateful animal!"

Xin Qiji was furious, and the soldiers around him threw out flying claws, which flew in all directions, and the hoods of the carriages were instantly shattered into pieces.

A group of trembling church leaders suddenly appeared in front of the public, covering their faces with their hands and daring not to see anyone.

"Don't hide, just follow me!"

Xin Qiji looked at those people and smiled.

"Aqiji, what are you going to do?"

An archbishop mustered up the courage to point at Xin Qiji and shouted.

"Haha, you are so stupid! You still think I am a Hun?"

Xin Qiji burst into laughter.

"what?"

The faces of those church leaders changed drastically.

"I am the Major General of Qi! Xin Qiji! You are my prisoners now! My Qi State has always treated prisoners well, of course, that is under the condition of cooperation."

Xin Qiji looked at the church leaders and shouted.

These people live a life of luxury and only know how to use religion to deceive people. They are basically useless and powerless.

Xin Qiji led these people back effortlessly.

It's light.

The fighting outside Verona is over.

Even though the West had been preparing for a long time, there was still no suspense in this battle, and Qi won with an absolute overwhelming advantage.

When the smoke cleared, corpses once again covered the ground, all of them were Western soldiers.

"Marshal Yue!"

Xin Qiji laughed and waved along with Yue Fei, calling out the word "Marshal" with great enthusiasm.

"Oh, you're back at last!"

Yue Fei looked at Xin Qiji and smiled maliciously.

"Hey, Marshal Yue, I brought back a big fish!"

When Xin Qiji saw Yue Fei's smile, he knew there was trouble, and he quickly pointed at the group of Vatican officials behind him and laughed.

"Oh, it's still a little reward!"

Yue Fei looked at the high-ranking officials of the Church and their expressions eased a little. If these people ran away, it would be troublesome. "You and Wu Yong have arrested all the people who should be arrested!"

Yue Fei looked at the church leaders who were shrinking their necks and laughed.

"Who else?"

Xin Qiji asked doubtfully.

"Baldwin IV, that guy took advantage of Venice's emptiness and actually wanted to run back to Frank. This guy was really brave and endured hardships. Fortunately, he didn't get away!"

Yue Fei said with a smile.

"I should have broken the legs of this traitor earlier!"

Xin Qiji was furious when he heard this. They had been very kind to Baldwin IV, and this guy had learned a lot. If he ran away, it would be a big threat to them.

At this moment, Wu Yong brought Baldwin IV and William over. They arrived at dawn and just saw the end of the battle.

Baldwin IV looked very bad at this time. He did not expect that the army gathered by the Holy See had been prepared for so long and had the advantage of geographical location, but it would be defeated at the first touch.

"You two are old acquaintances. Let's have a good reunion. I will take you back to Qi State right away to see the world."

Yue Fei looked at Eugene III and Baldwin IV and smiled.

"you……"

Eugene III and Baldwin IV looked at each other, their eyes complicated but also filled with despair, they knew that everything was over.

"Where's Bernard?"

Eugene III looked at Yue Fei and shouted.

"You mean that guy? His legs were blown off, but he didn't die!"

Yue Fei said with a smile.

Upon hearing that Bernard's legs were blown off, Eugene III looked unhappy, and the other bishops could not help but feel grieving for the loss of their loved ones.

The battlefield was quickly cleared, and the army marched the prisoners towards Venice. These prisoners would be sent to the Red Sea to dig a canal.

The war ended so quickly that the civilians in Venice didn't even react. They thought the war would last at least a dozen days.

When the prisoners were escorted to the city of Venice, the civilians were stunned. When they saw the Pope and others, they finally believed that the war was over.

There was no cheering or cursing. The civilians couldn't help but feel sad, as if they had lost the most important thing.

"See, war is not the end of everything!"

On the high tower, Xiao Jiasui pointed at the silent civilians. No matter how loyal these civilians seemed on weekdays, they did not really accept the State of Qi in their hearts. Their loyalty was nothing more than for the sake of interests.

"I'll need an iron fist next!"

Yue Fei nodded, governance is more important than conquest.

"It's not appropriate to cross the mountains and hills. Let's stick to the original plan and take the navy ship to control the coastal cities first!"

Xiao Jiasui looked at Yue Fei and said that they didn't have time to wait. Since the enemy's main force had been eliminated, it was time to control all places.

"I'll arrange it right away! Fortunately, there are enough naval ships!"

Yue Fei said with a smile.

"Wu Yong, your appointment has come down!"

Xiao Jiasui took another telegram and handed it to Wu Yong. This was a letter of appointment. Now Wu Yong was the governor of Byzantium.

"Thank you, strategist!"

Wu Yong was overjoyed when he saw the letter of appointment. He had finally taken a step forward.

The Qi army moved quickly. The captives were escorted to the Red Sea, and the army was dispatched to various places by boat in batches.

After meeting Wu Yong, Xu Guanzhong and Li Jun came to Venice for supplies and prepared to embark on a journey around the world.

"This trip is fraught with danger!"

Xiao Jiasui looked at Xu Guanzhong and said.

"There is definitely danger, but with the ironclad ship, the compass, and the large amount of intelligence collected, it shouldn't be a problem."

Xu Guanzhong smiled and said that he had not been idle during his long stay in the West, and had obtained a large number of nautical charts from the navies and merchants of various countries.

"Then I wish you a safe journey!"

Xiao Jiasui said with a smile.

"Haha, maybe I can go back to Central Plains in less than a year."

Xu Guanzhong smiled and bowed. (End of this chapter)
