Chapter 6 Unexpected Harvest
"God bless you! Zuoqiu will win!"
In the battlefield, Zuoqiu Yue saw that the guards on the stone wall were all attracted, and immediately raised their arms and shouted, taking the lead in charging.
"Must win! Must win! Must win!"
The Zuoqiu warriors, who had little confidence at first, suddenly became much more courageous after seeing the might of the mythical dragon and horse.
As if he had been injected with chicken blood, he screamed and ran towards the door!
War in this world is rough and there are not so many sophisticated tactics.
Having lost the advantage of the stone wall, the Nalan clan's combat power was greatly reduced. They threw stone axes on the ground. The stones were weak in lethality. They were defeated by Zuoqiu clan's rows of wooden spears.
What's more, there is a violent "magical beast" like Ryoma, who quickly breaks through the enemy's defense line with his rampage!
Bang!
Nalanhuaz gritted his teeth and slashed at Longma's neck. Several scales flew out. The latter roared in pain and flicked his tail to knock him to the ground!
"Well..."
As soon as Nalan Watts managed to get up, he felt a chill on his neck and a knife was pressed against his neck!
"I lost, let's do it!"
He glanced sideways at Zuo Qiuyue, who was holding a knife next to him, as if he was surrendering and going to die.
But the other party did not use the knife, but asked his subordinates to find two thick hemp ropes and tie up Nalanhuazi.
Zuo Qiuyue didn't even look at him, picked up the long-handled sword and shouted:
"Your Lord Watts has been defeated! Put down your weapons! Or die!"
The Nalan warriors who were still resisting heard the sound and saw that their clan's most iconic and powerful weapon had fallen into the enemy's hands, and they couldn't help but look ashen.
Snap!
As the first stone ax fell to the ground, the sound of fighting quickly disappeared.
Zuo Qiuyue raised the knife and pointed forward, and shouted with burning eyes:
"Nalan Xiao! I want to see you!"
…
In the center of the valley where the Nalan clan is located, a three-story stone building stands here.
Based on the current construction level of the miniature world, this is the highest level of stone house that can be built, and it is also the residence of the leader of the Nalan clan.
"What are you looking at? A bunch of treacherous villains!"
At this time, those surrounding the stone tower were the soldiers of the Zuoqiu clan.
As the victors, they raised their chins high like proud roosters, scolding the Nalan people who tried to get closer.
"咴lvlv——"
Ryoma still looked so arrogant.
The scales on its body are covered with blood stains and glow red under the sunlight, making it look even more sinister!
The Nalan people who were watching were extremely aggrieved.
However, even the strongest member of the clan, Nalan Watts, was tied to the horse's hoof in disgrace. After all, they did not have the courage to step forward and cause trouble.
"I hope the leader's wisdom can save our clan again..."
…
Tens of thousands of Nalan tribesmen outside were praying silently, but the leader Nalan Xiao inside the stone building was looking at the uninvited guests with a smile on his face.
"Yue, remember when we first met, you were just a child learning to talk.
Unknowingly, in more than ten years, you have been able to lead a single team into the heart of our clan... It's amazing!"
Listening to Nalan Xiao's emotion, Zuo Qiuyue, who was standing opposite, didn't have a good face and said with a straight expression:
"I'm not here to reminisce about old times today! The Nalan clan betrayed their allies and must pay the penalty..."
Before she finished speaking, Nalan Xiao stood up and opened three huge boxes on the wall, revealing that they were full of iron ore and copper ore.
There's even a box of ready-made metal tools and weapons!
"this…"
The originally aggressive Zuo Qiuyue's face froze, and his prepared words were stuck in his throat.
"That's just part of it."
Without waiting for the other party to ask questions, Nalan Xiao took the initiative to add:
"There are also three hundred and sixty high-quality war horses, which are the rewards of the Huyan clan for persuading us to join us.
In addition to Nalan's original one hundred and ten horses, I will deliver them to you as compensation."
Zuo Qiuyue's expression couldn't be tense!
Zuoqiu's family has enough food and lacks horses, while Huyan's horse has enough food and lacks food.
The Nalan clan lacked both horses and food, but the territory was rich in mineral resources and had a leading edge in tools and ironware.
Relying on this, Nalanshi often engages in the business of "middlemen making money from the price difference".
Even if Zuo Qiuyue came with the intention of extorting money, she never thought that Nalan Xiao would spend so much money!
She suppressed her thoughts and asked in a deep voice: "What is your purpose?"
Generations of leaders of the Nalan clan have always been known for their shrewdness.
The value of this batch of compensation materials is so great that it is likely to directly break the balance among the three tribes, which is definitely not something that someone who wants to have both sides would do!
"Purpose? Huh..."
Nalan Xiao chuckled and said slowly:
"You came here to demand punishment with seemingly ferocity, but from the beginning to the end you only killed dozens of people from our clan, and you also kidnapped Nalan Watts but did not kill him...
As far as I know, Huyan's army was preparing to cross the river yesterday, and it should have reached your doorstep by now.
You, who have been smart since childhood, will take the risk and divide your troops to fight against the Nalan clan?
The strong performance in the past is just to increase the leverage when asking for compensation."
Looking at the astonished Zuo Qiuyue, Nalanxiao raised his hand and pointed out the window:
"Since you have been blessed by the gods, you should end the dispute as soon as possible.
The day you conquer the Huyan clan is the day when I, the Nalan clan, will completely surrender!"
Hearing this, Zuo Qiuyue subconsciously wanted to ask: Are you so easy to believe the stories about gods I preach?
But when the words came to her lips, she held back. She took a deep look at Nalan Xiao, turned around and walked down the stone building.
After a while, Zuoqiu soldiers all rode horses and left with three large boxes of supplies with smiles on their faces.
Before this, they never imagined that the situation would be like this!
Everyone in the Nalan clan was also dumbfounded.
The released Nalan Huaz and several other high-ranking clan officials came to see the leader one after another, hoping to hear a reasonable explanation.
“…All my decisions are for the continuation of the Nalan Sect!
Today's defeat is a crucial step towards a turning point for our clan.
In the near future, you will see the answer..."
Nalan Xiao spent a lot of words to calm down the emotions of the senior members.
After Nalan Watts and others left, she slumped down on the chair.
He took off the translucent crystal pendant he was wearing, and his brows were filled with fatigue.
The hair on his temples turned gray at a speed visible to the naked eye!
"I see, is it possible to obtain extraordinary thinking ability by using external objects?"
Suddenly hearing someone speaking, Nalanxiao was so shocked that he stood up immediately and quickly put on the necklace again.
"who?!"
Then, she saw a strangely dressed man walking out from the corner of the balcony.
The man's eyes were looking at Nalan Xiao up and down, just like she was looking at the young Zuo Qiuyue not long ago!
The person who appeared at this time was naturally Wang Hui.
His projection in the miniature world is a special existence between reality and reality.
It has a tangible touch, but does not have the aura of ordinary people.
Wang Hui didn't waste much time and took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the Nalan tribe's territory and leisurely listened to the entire negotiation process between the two women.
The female leader of the Nalan clan should be around thirty years old.
The level of thinking he possesses is far beyond the normal level of this era.
Even Zuo Qiuyue, whom Wang Hui admired, was outdone by her!
Wang Hui narrowed his eyes slightly when his eyes fell on the crystal pendant with faint light.
