The breakfast dinner ended unhappy. Uno did not behave strongly from beginning to end. He acted as if he obeyed the Tsar's attitude in everything. In fact, he held the general power very tightly. Sometimes he seemed harmless, and he had a smile on his face.
, secretly like a fierce dog.
Uno controls the military and Carlos controls the finances. You can imagine how difficult it will be for the two to deal with each other after they join forces. Even the Tsar can only use Carlos to tie up Uno and make this fierce dog look like a pug.
After Su Xiao left Rosette Palace, she returned to the small hotel where she had stayed before, where Caesar was already waiting.
Su Xiao promised at the breakfast banquet that the city of Segona would be captured within seven days. Not to mention other things, the march to Segona City alone would take five days, and the remaining two days would need to be repaired. The soldiers were not machines and were marching at full speed.
If we attack Segona City immediately after a few days, morale will be very low.
It seems that there are two days to attack the city of Segona, but in fact, it is not the case. Su Xiao has not taken over the 20,000 soldiers. At present, the 20,000 soldiers are still in Uno's hands. If Uno doesn't do something wrong, Su Xiao will definitely
Don't believe it.
If Uno delays the handover of 20,000 soldiers, Su Xiao may be delayed in Shadu for one or two days, which may lead to the fact that the seven-day time limit has expired as soon as he arrives at the border.
Su Xiao checked the task list. As the center of power of Shayan Kingdom, Shadu was full of opportunities, and the chance of triggering side tasks was higher.

…
There are two side tasks, one rewards a two-star title, and the other rewards a knowledge item whose use I don’t know yet.
Su Xiao already knew something about Segona City on the border. It was a fortress city with a civilian population of about 3,000, and of course the people living in it were Peruvian dwarves.
Don't underestimate Segona City just because of its civilian population. There are more than 50,000 soldiers stationed here. The more than 3,000 civilians serve the soldiers. They open shops in the city to ensure that Peruvian soldiers can be stationed all year round.
There.
In addition to soldiers and civilians, there are many slaves in Segona City, slaves from the Sand Flame Kingdom, and they are all coolies.
The fortress city where 50,000 Peruvian soldiers were stationed seemed to be a small number, but that was not the case after the fight.
The Shayan Kingdom attacked the city of Segona many times. The most brutal one was when they dispatched 170,000 soldiers in an attempt to attack the city in one fell swoop. However, they failed in vain. Only 90,000 of the 170,000 soldiers died, and they were almost killed.
flight.
It is almost impossible to capture the city of Segona with 20,000 soldiers, not to mention there is still a seven-day time limit.
Precisely because it was impossible, Uno and Carlos were willing to hand over 20,000 soldiers. The unknown friendship between Su Xiao and the Tsar made Uno and Carlos very afraid, so they were willing to hand over 20,000 soldiers.
At the cost of getting rid of the hidden danger of Su Xiao.
As for the position of commander-in-chief, under normal circumstances, Uno and Carlos would never relent. It was the situation that forced them to relent. In the situation like this morning, if Uno said anything else, it would be a direct challenge to the authority of the Tsar Emperor.
.
The first thing to be done now is to take over the command of 20,000 soldiers from Uno. This is different from worry. Uno's people will come soon. If the other party can endure the itchy torture, Su Xiao and others
Affordable.
Boom, boom, boom.
There was a knock on the hotel door. After Caesar opened the door, a man wearing half scale armor and full of silver hair walked into the room.
"Commander Cuculin White Night, I am the new deputy commander, Bonne Avare."
The silver-haired man, Avare, stopped in front of the door. He looked to be around twenty-six or seventeen years old. Not to mention anything else, in terms of handsomeness, Bonne Avare could definitely be ranked in the top twenty in Sartoun.
"..."
Su Xiao sat in front of the window and looked at the pedestrians passing by on the street below. He ignored Avare at all. He asked Bubowang and Baha to plot against Uno. Uno obviously couldn't handle it, so he sent Avare.
thunder.
As soon as Su Xiao took over 20,000 soldiers, the deputy commander-in-chief was arranged. Under normal circumstances, the deputy commander-in-chief should be selected by him personally, not appointed by Uno.
In the room, Avare coughed slightly. He was very proud of himself. He had been promoted to five levels in a row. He was the commander of the army and was directly promoted to deputy commander.
The basic situation, Avare has learned from Uno's confidants. When he heard that 20,000 people were going to attack Segona City, Avare's legs were a little weak. He was looking for death. As a
The soldiers left behind in Shadu had never seen the scene on the front line in their lives, but this morning, they were surprised and frightened at the same time.
Avare's first thought was to hate and hate that he had been dragged into the water. Then he thought, since the commander-in-chief had issued a military order to capture the city of Segona within seven days, why not let him do it before arriving at the city of Segona?
The commander-in-chief died in an 'accident'?
In this case, there is a reason not to attack the city of Segona. The commander-in-chief is dead, so why not hurry back to Shadu? You must know that those 20,000 soldiers are his subordinates of Avare.
The panic turned into surprise, and Avare understood that the man named him deputy commander-in-chief was to get rid of the thorn in his side. As long as he succeeds, he might become the new commander-in-chief.
Avare felt that the pinnacle of life was already beckoning to him, which made him feel even more happy, except for his throat being a little itchy.
"Cough, cough~"
Avare coughed dryly and glanced at the tea on the table.
"Are you thirsty?"
Su Xiao held her cheek with one hand, still looking at the passers-by on the street.
"I am not thirsty."
Avare raised his chin slightly.
"We are all our own people, don't be polite."
"Then you're welcome, my subordinate."
Avare strode forward, grabbed the teapot and poured it into his mouth.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough..."
With a pop, Avare fell to the ground, the teapot fell and rolled to Su Xiao's feet.
Su Xiao didn't even bother to plot against this kind of abandoned son who was blocking the way. When he first arrived in Shadu, he offended the chief priest and the Sikyong, and someone poisoned him. Isn't this normal? Avale is just unlucky, Su
Xiao didn't let him drink the cold tea, but just said, "We are all our own people, you're welcome."
This kind of time bomb should be eliminated as soon as possible. If this guy loses his mind and leads the soldiers to mutiny not far from the sand, then the gain will outweigh the loss.
"Caesar, go and inform Uno that I am deeply sorry for Avare's misfortune, and send you some gifts. The cheaper the gifts, the better."
"Gift? Let me think about it."
Caesar's eyes were a little heartbroken. For him, giving gifts was on the same level as being stabbed.
More than an hour later, Caesar returned with a slightly fat man. This man was also wearing scale armor. He looked more like a businessman than a soldier.
Avare had just died, and a new deputy commander had arrived. He was still appointed by Uno. Before the 20,000 soldiers were completely handed over, Uno had this power. After all, the military power was taken from him.
The new deputy commander is obviously much more honest. After all, the previous one died tragically, and he died suddenly within an hour.
"Sir, I am..."
Before the new deputy commander finished speaking, Su Xiao waved his hand. Seeing this scene, the new deputy commander's heart twitched. He didn't need to know his name. Does that mean he wouldn't live long?
Of course, Su Xiao will not get rid of the new deputy commander in a short time. Although he is appointed by Uno, the deputy commander cannot be replaced too frequently. Changing one every hour is too exaggerated. At the very least, he must insist on changing it within a day.
