Chapter 373 Please come and be my guest, Your Majesty the King
More than ten days after the capture of the city of Yis, Roger's "work" here was finally completed. [] It turned out that the bustling city was looted, and valuables either fell into Roger's pockets, or were transported outside the city and burned.
Roger also began to build a super stable and a basic alchemy laboratory. This was all thanks to his rich harvest in this war. Otherwise, it would have been absolutely impossible to build two castle buildings at the same time with such "luxury".
Of course, among the nearly 100,000 people in Yis City, there are always some people who are not afraid of death and have bravery. Roger's behavior in the city inevitably caused some resistance. However, Roger will not deal with these guys who want to resist.
If he had any mercy, he immediately ordered the soldiers to carry out a bloody purge of these guys, and quickly regained control of the situation.
Although Roger's harvest in the city of Yis was very satisfactory, as a young man with ideals and pursuits, Roger had no intention of stopping there. What he requisitioned in the city of Yis was actually the robbery of a few luxury cars.
carriage, "sincerely" inviting Mubasa IV and all male members of the royal family to Mandos as guests.
Women in desert countries have no status. They are completely vassals of men. It is absolutely impossible for them to inherit the throne. So everyone knows in their hearts that Roger's words were polite, but they actually cut off all hopes of the Mubasa royal family. If Roger
Jie needs to return one or two male royal members as soon as possible. Jie Pengguo still has hope of continuing to exist. If no male royal member returns for a long time, the country will definitely fall into civil strife, and it will be completely over.
But now the entire city is under Roger's control. Under the watchful eye of thousands of troops, no one dares to go against his will, not even Mbasa IV, who was once the supreme ruler of Jepen. Nai's
Mubasa IV could only take his two brothers and sixteen princes, got on the carriage prepared by Roger, and left the city of Is and slowly headed north.
It must be said that the prestige of the Mbasa royal family in the country of Jepen is still very high. With a long line of carriages driving towards the north, many citizens of Yisi fell to the ground in tears, and the whole city was filled with an atmosphere of sadness.
Roger was very satisfied with the situation in front of him and couldn't help but thought to himself: "Cry, cry, the more the royal family is loved by the people, the more valuable it is, so it's not a waste of time for my brothers to take a trip in the desert!"
Roger's idea was very clear. Only a king who is supported by the people is a king who is useful to him. If when he left with Mbasa's royal family, the residents of the city all lined up to see him off with joy, it would be really in vain.
If you work hard, you might as well leave these people here.
Judging from the current situation, even if the male members of the Mbasa royal family leave for a period of time, there is no need to worry about someone replacing him. Only by negotiating with Mbasa IV, who may still rule Jepen, can we get more benefits, right?
Thinking of this, Roger felt that he should add another layer of insurance to his plan. He summoned up his fighting spirit and said to the citizens of Yisi who were crying to see Mbasa IV behind him: "Don't worry, I just invited His Majesty Mbasa IV and the princes to come and hide."
We are just visiting the country for a while. Based on the honor of King Fernando Alonso III of the Kingdom of Thorne, His Majesty Mbasa IV and all the princes will be escorted back safely in a while!"
Roger's words surprised everyone, even the desperate Mubasa IV. He thought he could only live a prisoner's life in the cold north for the rest of his life, but now as long as he can pay enough, He could come back as king and even save the lives of his brothers and sons. Such ups and downs almost made Mubasa IV's heart almost stop.
Roger's generous statement also relieved the people who were worried about the king. Some people even had the idea that "this nobleman of Thorne Kingdom is not very bad."
As everyone heaved a sigh of relief, Roger was secretly proud. He had given everyone a reassurance. In this way, even if someone wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to seize power, they would be met with strong resistance. In the end, Roger is not too concerned about whether these people from the Mubasa royal family can come back safely. Anyway, he swore on Alonso III. When things get ugly, he can just let these people scold Alonso III.
Originally, Roger wanted to stay in the desert for a while and visit all the oases in the three desert countries. But now that he had brought Mubasa IV and so many other burdens, the original plan had to be changed. So Roger could only give up. He decided to continue fighting and headed north, hoping to return to the Kingdom of Thorne as soon as possible.
The sand in many places in the dry water desert is soft and difficult to walk on, and the heavy carriages drive on it at an excruciatingly slow speed. Fortunately, Roger also left enough food and water in the castle warehouse, otherwise these kings of the Kingdom of Jiepen would Princes and so on will die of thirst and starvation.
In fact, Roger originally wanted the captives to ride griffins, but perhaps because of genetic problems, from Mbasa IV to his youngest son, they were all fat and staggeringly heavy. Roger suspected that they would not be able to do anything about it. Sit firmly on the back of the griffin. In order to prevent a "precious" captive from falling to the ground and dying halfway, Roger finally decided to use a slow but sure means of transportation such as a carriage.
Unlike flying in the air when we came here, trekking on the ground was really slow and arduous. Fortunately, the trip was fruitful, and Roger's mood was not affected at all. He walked slowly in the desert under the scorching sun every day, his face He even often wears a kind smile.
Whenever Roger thought about how much benefit the soon-to-be-built alchemy laboratory would bring to him, he couldn't help but feel elated. It was natural for this mood to show on his face. However, when Mbasa IV and others came, Roger's smile It would inevitably be associated with negative comments such as "insidious", "cunning", and "cruel", which made these prisoners frightened along the way, wondering what Roger was planning.
So from Mbasa IV to his youngest son, all the royal family members of the Jeppon Kingdom were very cautious towards Roger. Every time they saw him, they had a smile on their face, as if they had met a friend who had been separated for decades. Relatives are so affectionate. It is indeed a very fulfilling thing to make these guys who are usually aloof and smile at you. Roger also enjoys this feeling very much.
However, this comfortable day did not last long. When Roger led the team to the vicinity of Sweet Well Oasis, something completely unexpected happened.
