Riding and Slashing

Chapter 290 Toba Bloody Night

Business is not very easy these days. After all, when delivering goods, we always have to be on guard against customers' blackmail. Even if everything goes well, there will always be arrears when the final payment is settled...

But in fact, Li Ang knew that Emile Xerxes would definitely not have any unreasonable thoughts—he dared not offend himself at this time.

It's not because Emile Xerxes is timid, but because he needs the support of other forces too much at present.

——Kadan's army is coming.

This is something that everyone can realize, and Emil is naturally very clear.

In fact, if Li Ang hadn't brought him out of Singal, he and Bridget might not have dared to leave Ramon's hotel - Cardan was preparing an army in Singal at this time.

Cardan prepared a large army naturally to recover the lost ground, but the lost ground he wanted to recover first was definitely not Aishekman, but his own old Wotuba City.

Before Li Ang let Ediz and the female soldiers of Griffin Claws perform a scene in Toba City, which caused the De'Shar Wind Rider to report falsely, which made Kadan firmly believe that Bridget was a 'usurper' and had already occupied Toba city.

If it is just that Brigi intends to forcibly establish a "God Kingdom" in Toba City, then Kadan will definitely not be too worried, because the D'Xia people have deep-rooted beliefs in God Vata, and Brigi, the so-called "desert prophet" for a while Will not be able to form too much influence, and the D'Shar people will not really follow him.

Risa Diran is well-informed, and he knows what's going on in the city.

That is to say, Lord Lord, this is a business along the way, earning 200 million along the way...

In fact, this request is not too much. Since it is a transaction, it should of course provide customers with some necessary after-sales service.

"More than 20 years ago, Cardan abandoned the nomadic tribes at the foot of Mount Ghazi, and became Bahad Khan with hereditary official positions and coercion by force. And you should be the leader of those nomadic tribes abandoned by Cardan—I will let you You obtained the title of Bahad Khan through tribal elections, because this is the true tradition of Desha and the highest legal principle! Only in this way can you have the ability to compete with Kadan!"

He even used 'you'.

The huge noise even spread several miles away, and Lisa Dilan and Li Ang, who had the best ears, didn't fall asleep all night.

But now, Emile Xerxes made a reasonable request to Li Ang.

And Emil, this ordinary-looking middle-aged man, also looked at Li Ang quietly.

Li Ang could even see that many cloths and jewelry were still stained with blood.

It seemed a little impatient.

"My lord, Malbert has just been made Lord of the Sava Castle."

Li Sadilan probably thought that Li Ang was for future rule.

The Red Death appeared in the Bacchus Empire, and he was really willing to help, because the Bacchus have been using labor to create wealth.

Li Ang patted Eric on the shoulder: "By the way, let the king give you a title."

It's just that he can't do such a thing with his own hands, and it's hard to wash his hands if they get dirty.

"My troops have gone, you just have to get your flag ready."

Li Ang's expression was also very sincere: "But I can still buy you at least a month... I guarantee that Toba City will not be attacked during this time."

Emil Xerxes looked at Li Ang suspiciously.

Eric keenly understood Li Ang's intentions.

But since Emile Xerxes has done this, there is no room for relaxation between him and Cardan, or the faction represented by Cardan.

Perhaps at this time, the people of Tuoba City hope that this place will be permanently occupied by Li Ang's army.

"In this way, you will gain a higher reputation than Kadan! At the same time, you will definitely get the support of all tribes and the approval of 'God'!"

Soldiers will search all the houses and take away all valuables, and the gold and silver jewelry worn by people will be directly ripped off.

Li Ang looked at Emile Xerxes in surprise, and didn't speak for a while.

And he didn't speak indiscriminately, all he wanted was a month, and he also offered to pay food and military pay.

"What guarantee do you take?"

Li Ang said lightly.

"It's already afternoon... Tomorrow morning, tomorrow morning I will hand over 200 million dinars to you."

"I know. He wants to raise two million dinars overnight, so of course that's the only way to do it. Actually, if he doesn't do it tonight, then I'll let you shoot him tomorrow..."

But after a few seconds of silence, Li Ang shook his head and refused.

And this kind of looting is completely indiscriminate-whether it is nobles or commoners, even beggars are not spared.

If there is resistance, kill directly.

Although the Sarleon Kingdom has different beliefs and different nationalities, at least it is much easier to accept than killing and looting...

Only relying on Brigi, the 'usurper', can't really usurp the throne.

These words are really all true, and Li Ang really intends to do this.

Emile Xerxes had been listening to Li Ang's words, and even got a little excited. He nodded: "If everything is as you said, then I will definitely do what you want!"

In fact, there were people from Mount Ghazi who came to Toba City to report, but without exception, they were all intercepted by Li Ang's army - Mount Ghazi is not far from Toba and Aishekman. Hickman, or to Toba City.

Li Ang suddenly laughed: "Emir, you have been claiming that you should also be Bahad Khan, but this kind of rhetoric is not recognized, even if you beat Kadan in Toba City, you will not become Bahad Khan Khan. Because the real Bahad Khan needs to be elected by all tribes, especially those around Mount Gazi. After all, the "messenger of God" must at least be recognized by the holy mountain temple."

The carriage was loaded with gold, silver, jewels and precious silk, but it was not boxed—probably not in time.

This is why he previously proposed that it would take a month to prepare.

Emil wanted time, but Li Ang didn't have that much time—Eric had already reported to him about Ailian and Fawcett, and Li Ang had to resolve the Desha war as soon as possible and lead his troops back to Changhe Town.

Afterwards, Li Ang turned around and entered the barracks, and explained to Eric: "Sort these things into categories, we only keep the gold and silver, and put the other things in boxes... Do you know where Malbert lives now?"

Emile Xerxes looked at the sky, nodded to Li Ang, left the barracks, and ran towards Toba City.

Whether Brigitte controlled Emil Xerxes or defected to him, the effect was the same. As long as Emil Xerxes was there, he could really usurp the throne!
So Li Ang wanted to sell Toba City to Emil Xerxes, in fact, to confirm this 'usurpation'.

But he wouldn't sympathize with the D'Xia in Toba City—the D'Xia were not much different from the Jatu people, and their property was basically robbed, especially these so-called 'civilized people' living in the capital.

Therefore, the blood-stained scimitar, ferocious laughter, corpses all over the ground, naked women, crying children, and yellow sand soaked in blood, together constituted the first place for Emile Xerxes to settle in Tuoba City. one night.

Emile Xerxes' eyes were bloodshot, but his spirit was still extremely vigorous.

"How about it, Emir, what do you think of the service I provide? The price is only 200 million dinars, isn't it a good deal?"

The after-sales service that Emile Xerxes wanted was for Li Ang to buy him a month so that he could completely control Toba City and prepare materials and manpower for defending the city.

Amir Xerxes' face sank.

"Huh... Earl Leon, I have to say that your plan...is very reasonable."

But now, Li Ang asked the army to withdraw to Fondar, in order to intercept all the D'Xia people who came out from around Ghazi Mountain and continue to block information.

Since Ramon's auction attracted most people's attention, and Cardan needed to organize an army in Singal, Cardan, Emir Xerxes and others still don't know that General Agathon set fire to Mount Gazi thing.

"My lord, are you doing this to attack De' Xia again in the future?"

"Emile Xerxes Khan, I know what you are worried about. But my troops cannot stay here, I have other things to do."

Li Ang's smile deepened.

Li Ang calculated the accounts with a smile on his face: "I will only work when I receive the money, you'd better hurry up..."

In fact, this is what these D'Shars in Toba City once did in the territory of Sarleon or Bacchus.

"Very good... Divide the other things except gold and silver into two parts. For the big part, you take the convoy around the Sava River Castle a few more times and wait for someone to grab it. If no one comes, you will Grab yourself...the remaining small part, you take the 'remnant soldiers' to Sarleon City, dedicated to King Ulrik...you know how to do it."

But before that, Eichkoman was jointly controlled by the Bacchus Empire and Leon, and the city of Toba was also occupied by Li Ang. Naturally, all the messengers became captives or corpses.

As long as Kadan can bring a large force to appear under the city of Toba in a short period of time, the city of Toba and the surrounding tribes will inevitably return to his banner of Bahad Khan.

Early the next morning, dozens of carriages drove out of Tuoba City, and drove straight into the barracks where Li Ang was.

It's not that Emile Xerxes doesn't know how to win the hearts of the people, but that the current situation does not support him slowly conquering the hearts of the people in Toba City. He wants to use the fastest speed so that the city can only have his own voice.

Li Ang's attitude towards the Bacchus and the D'Shar is completely different.

After making the people in the city lose all their property, iron and food, Emile Xerxes can use the method of controlling slaves to force the people of the city to temporarily obey, and Brigi's methods can also come in handy.

But Li Ang shook his head: "No, I told you, Lisa Dilan, I am a selfish person, I will only help my own people, but the Dexia people will not become their own people...so I just want to squeeze Gan Dexia, let the people in my own territory live a better life with the property that the Dexia people looted from other places."

Probably no one in Toba City expected that the army of the Sarleon Kingdom who had entrenched in Toba City for several days had never committed any crime against Qiu Neiqiu in the city, but these D'Shar soldiers, who were their own compatriots, plundered the city instead.

"My lord, they... seem to be..."

"I don't know how much these things are worth, but they will definitely not be less than 200 million dinars...Your Excellency Li Ang, I am a person who abides by the rules. Now, let's go to Mount Gazi."

"Earl Leon, I don't intend to renege on my debts. I will definitely pay what is due. I am even willing to sign an agreement with you to provide you with horses and minerals continuously in the future..."

Of course, some soldiers will do something extra...

And this was something that had to be done. Sigismund and Sarah were also leading a group of gladiators to help Agathon, and they were also besieged on Mount Gazi together.

"So... Shouldn't you pay? 100 million, the final payment for Toba City; another 100 million, which is the advance payment for the Bahad Khan, and now you have to pay a total of 200 million. After you are done, pay another 100 million Wanwei - we will follow the rules and traditions. Just like I will make you Bahad Khan according to the rules and traditions..."

Li Ang's voice gradually became agitated: "Therefore, my troops must go to the foot of Mount Gazi immediately... I will join hands with the Bacchus to destroy those nomadic tribes and the temple of Mount Gazi!"

"As long as Kadan gets the news, he must go to rescue Mount Ghazi—if the holy mountain falls, then he is not qualified to be a Bahad Khan!"

Li Ang nodded calmly to Emil Xerxes.

This search was really cleaner than the bandits, basically nothing was left, even food and kitchen knives were searched, not even a metal spoon was left, which is different from what most Desha troops did after they arrived in towns in other countries Things are exactly the same.

"But you, the noble Emir Xerxes Khan, you will be the 'savior' of the holy mountain before Kadan! I can even let you single-handedly destroy the combined army of the Sarleon Kingdom and the Bacchus' Get out of the D'Shar'..."

Perhaps, for Emil Xerxes, this was what he had to do after arriving in Toba City.

Because of this, Li Ang wanted to bring Emile Xerxes to meet Alina, and let Toba City and Eichcomman watch and help each other, otherwise Emile Xerxes would not dare to buy it.

…………

"I can guarantee this with the real Bahad Khan position! It seems that I must first tell you my plan..."

"I know this... That's why I want to figure out how you want me to get the title of Bahad Khan."

"Then, while Kadan is still on his way, you can bring the tribes under the holy mountain back to Tuoba City - I believe that at that time you will definitely be able to confront Kadan head-on!"

In fact, Emile Xerxes also knew that if he got Toba City, he would inevitably face Cardan's crazy counterattack.

But if Bridget and Emile Xerxes were together, it would be completely different-Emile Xerxes is Cardin's younger brother.

Emile Xerxes said quite sincerely: "But I hope your army can stay outside the city of Toba for a month. I can provide military pay and food for your army-this is also to ensure that this transaction can be truly completed .”

The four gates of the whole city were closed tightly, and there was a greater noise in the city than during the war.

That is to say, although Li Ang said a lot of plans, there is actually only one thing that needs to be solved by Li Ang's troops at present - defeating the D'Shar herdsmen who are besieging Agathon.

Not only to raise military expenses, but also to ensure that there are no more Cardan's subordinates in the city, and at the same time, people in Toba City have no food and clothing, and can only rely on the "gift" of Emil Xerxes.

Crying, cursing, and screams rang out all night long.

That night, everyone in Tuoba City could not sleep all night.

They were all members of the Silver Hand, and Li Ang had to rescue them.

"And... I will burn down the temple on the holy mountain! That is to say, you can fiddle with it as you want in the future-you can rebuild the 'temple' by yourself, and build a sanctuary that fully meets your wishes!"

"I don't want the title of King Ulrik...I know how to do it, my lord, don't worry."

Eric rejected Li Ang's offer again.

"Be careful, this task is very dangerous, Malbert is not a good person."

Li Ang nodded, and walked out of the barracks with a spear: "Blow the horn! Get ready to go!"
