"System, aren't you doing this well? I'm a good citizen. Why do I start issuing usurpation missions?"

Si Wei sat on the chair, gently rubbing his chin with one hand, looking thoughtful and seemingly hesitant.

In fact, you are arguing with the system in your mind.

Xiwei felt that this system was definitely a roundworm in his stomach, including the bone in the back of his head.

Was he that obvious?

[Ding! As a villain, stabbing allies in the back and stepping on the corpses of allies to ascend to the throne is the art of villains]

Xiwei couldn't help but smile when he heard the system's rogue words:

"Good guy, then why should I be crowned king? Backstabbing king? The key is that I don't have enough troops right now..."

This Xiwei didn't tell lies.

Although he has fifteen or six Sky Knight-level units at full strength.

But the Pope is a champion, and there is also an ignorant eldest prince named Bailer Fulen.

Even if he suddenly rebels while waiting for the eldest prince to fight the Pope to the death, it will probably be in vain.

[Ding! The host just needs to complete the death plot mission first, crush Ye Hao’s identity as the son of destiny, and leave the rest to fate]

Xiwei: "..."

Xiwei was speechless, thinking that after not seeing each other for a few days, this system has become a magic weapon?

So what the system means is that completing the death plot mission is the key to breaking the situation.

In fact, he was initially planning to become independent in the Eagle Territory, and was not ready to usurp the throne so early.

After all, the Cologne Empire is now surrounded by enemies...

wrong.

Xiwei's eyes lit up, and he realized that now was indeed an opportunity.

The Andorra Empire, which poses the greatest threat to the Cologne Empire, is being invaded by the Nagas of the Sea Tribe.

The Principality of Mayton in the west is just a small country. Although its military strength is limited, it is probably also treacherous but not courageous.

The North is the territory of frost orcs, titans and giants.

Putting aside the lawful neutral titans, although the remaining frost orcs and giants may have the possibility of attacking the Cologne Empire, due to their limited number, the possibility is not high.

Based on this calculation, he only needs to guard against the Orc Royal Court in the southern desert.

As for what the players should do...

While Xiwei was thinking, he cast his gaze on the scheming frog with an uneasy look on his face. He pondered for a moment and said:

"I agree to your request, and I will help you kill Ye Hao."

He has already thought about it.

The system has also reminded before that the so-called killing of Ye Hao mainly involves crushing his identity as the son of destiny, or even depriving him of it.

Moreover, he didn’t know if the mysterious crystal could function without Ye Hao, so the players had only two endings:

Either die with Ye Hao, or become his subordinate.

Xiwei prefers the latter, because the system's behavior of taking advantage of others has a history.

…

The scheming frog and Gou Fugui left with satisfaction.

Not only did they get a promise from the Eagle Lord, but they also received five copper coins per person as payment for the long journey back and forth.

The scheming frog and Gou Fugui were both moved.

That's five copper coins, a huge sum of money!

These five copper coins were enough for them to buy ten pieces of black bread hard enough to use as weapons on the road.

All in all, this trip was a great time for both host and guest.

Especially the generosity of the Eagle Lord impressed the scheming frog and Gou Fugui with admiration.

Sitting in the conference hall, Xiwei, who was already in a good mood, certainly didn't care about the players' praise for him.

As a great lord, it is normal to be revered and praised by others.

He was listening carefully to Clemont's report on the situation in Rhodes City:

"Master Xiwei, currently all the resistance forces in Rhode City have been defeated. We have captured more than 5,000 Rhode City defenders. What should we do with these defenders?"

The old knight looked a little worried. It was far easier to attack a city than to govern it, just like the more than 5,000 Rhodes City captives in his hands now.

If we leave them alone, they may develop into bandits and rebels. What if we let them go to the battlefield and suddenly rebel?

We can't just kill them all.

Xiwei noticed Clemont's worried look, but he didn't think this matter was very difficult to handle. After thinking for a moment, he suggested coldly:

"In this special period, we do not have time to completely repatriate these prisoners of war. Here I will give you two suggestions."

"First: Find the corresponding family members of these prisoners of war in Rhode City and place them under house arrest in the Rhode City dungeon."

"There is no need to put them all under house arrest. That way there would be too many people and it would be difficult to manage."

"If there are children, capture the children. If there are no children, capture the wives and parents. If there are no children, capture all the prisoners of war."

"Second: Let the captured soldiers meet their families and then be dispersed and integrated into our current army."

"After leaving Rhodes City, we only need to send a small number of elites to guard the dungeon. Believe me, these prisoners of war will fight with all their strength on the battlefield."

After listening to Xiwei's suggestion, Clemont thought carefully, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

The Lord's intention is to make these prisoners of war care, so that they can be controlled to the greatest extent without even needing to take any precautions.

It can be said that this method is extremely effective when dealing with a small number of prisoners of war.

"Master Xiwei, your wisdom is really beyond the reach of this old servant." Cremon looked in reverence and made a knightly salute to Xiwei, praising him sincerely.

Xiwei waved his hand after hearing this, not taking it seriously.

These routines are all tricks used by the ancients in the history books in previous lives. Now he is just picking up people's wisdom and it is nothing.

"That's right," Xiwei suddenly remembered something and said to Clemon in a serious tone:

"There are currently about 10,000 civilian households in Rhode City. You must strictly manage the knights under your command and prohibit them from bringing soldiers to harass these civilians."

"This is very critical. It is related to whether Rhodes City can settle down after we leave, instead of turning into a mess as soon as we leave."

"Send the army now to arrest and execute all the gangsters who appear in the chaos!"

When Xiwei said this, he leaned forward slightly with a sense of oppression. He looked at Clemont and the other knights in the conference hall with a serious face. His eyes had become extremely cold, and his tone was murderous. He spoke every word.

said:

"In front of those people, kill the chicken to scare the monkeys!"

"I will obey your will!"

With a solemn look on his face, Clemont solemnly saluted Xi Wei, who was sitting at the top, with another clenched fist.

After explaining these things, Xiwei's expression calmed down, and he leaned slightly back against Loli's soft and petite body. While enjoying the meticulous care of the little maid, he said in a casual tone:

"Okay, Clemont, go and do your work."
Chapter completed!
