Episode thirteenth: The trip to the Kingdom of Kurasonei, Section 5: Revenge
La Qi'ao signaled to the senior generals around him that they could go back to the camp, and then headed towards the Imperial Capital Military Headquarters with only four guards. He planned to ask what exactly happened.
At this time, Ammu had already rushed to the confidential conference room of the palace. To his surprise, the six chief ministers and the Prime Minister were all here. As soon as he saw Ammu coming in, the Foreign Minister came up to him: "I was just going to send someone to invite him."
As for you, you have something urgent."
Seeing the solemn expressions of the ministers in the room, Ammu put the secret message from Kerui back into his arms and sat down in his seat.
"Marshal, this is the information sent back by the secret agent just now." The Foreign Secretary pushed a document away from Ammu.
In addition to being in charge of diplomacy, the Foreign Secretary also manages spies hiding in foreign countries.
Ammu opened the file and took one look at it before taking a deep breath. "This, this is really not a trivial matter."
"That's right, there are five governors from the Speihammer Empire and the Rathuke Federation who want to join us. It's very embarrassing for us. Before you come, we can't get a result at all." The Prime Minister said with a look on his face.
With a wry smile, everyone present knew that this was a good thing, but it was also very troublesome.
Warner sighed softly: "If Corey were here, he would definitely demand it strongly and then send troops to find an excuse to fight."
"Your Majesty, it's a good thing he's not around for this matter." As soon as Amu said these words, everyone from Warner to the chief officers of the six departments burst into laughter. Now that Yasi's national power has won a great victory, at least four of the chief officers of the six departments are...
Those who oppose the war, even Ammu, are not willing to use weapons easily now.
In the secret room, only Amu looked serious and asked coldly: "What if this thing is false? Once our army enters these five provinces, we will be the first to break the contract and break the trust of the seven countries."
.”
"It should be true, but if it is false, it will be very troublesome." The Foreign Secretary did not dare to vouch for it.
All the ministers lowered their heads when they heard this. Upon seeing this, Warner said: "Let's treat this as true for now. If it is a lie to deceive us, then we will forcibly capture these five provinces and directly declare war on these two countries."
The Yasi Army had no more defeats this year, which gave Warner full confidence in the war.
"The veteran suggested that officials be sent secretly to contact the representatives of these five provinces and come up with a detailed plan. The two sides will make a final decision within three months." Prime Minister.
To occupy the land, none of the six chief officers present were unmoved. Almost all of them thought that they would give it a try even if it was fake. Yasi had been winning consecutive battles for several years, but had not fought an inch of land. This was something unheard of in the history of mainland wars.
It also made the whole country of Yasi very unfair.
"I will personally contact the representatives of these five provinces." Ammu suddenly stood up and proposed a plan that surprised everyone. Before he could finish his words, the Minister of Finance and the Minister of the Interior both stood up to object: "
No, what is your identity and how can you go to meet with representatives from several small provinces? Just send one or two ordinary officials."
"No, I want to personally analyze whether it is true or false. If it is true, it can also show my Yasi's sincerity. If it is false, I will directly call my subordinates to attack." Ammu said expressionlessly.
Several other ministers wanted to stop him, but Warner blocked them. "Marshal Muharlin, since you have made up your mind, I support your idea."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, I have a special request." Ammu then took out Corey's secret letter and handed it to Warner with both hands.
After reading it, Warner asked: "What are you going to do?"
"I dare not deceive your majesty. This matter is Kerui's personal vendetta. However, in order to succeed, I need to mobilize Yasi's regular army. This is against the law, but I am still willing to ask for your majesty's permission." Amu knelt down on one knee and rushed
He looked at Warner. Warner was stunned at first, then quickly walked a few steps to help Ammu up and said: "Get up quickly, the late emperor has granted you no need to kneel. Besides, Kerui is my blood alliance brother, and his affairs are my affairs.
"
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I want to send out a legion in the name of Corey's visit to Curasoni. I will send the elites of two legions to disguise themselves in various places in Curasoni. In one fell swoop, the royal family of Curasoni will disappear.
, and then support a group of rebels in their country to become the royal family and come under our control."
At this time, all the ministers finally understood that Corey was going to destroy the Kurasoni royal family, but it sounded like this was something that would be of great benefit to Yasi.
"Master Marshal, I am confused. This matter is strategically beneficial to me, Yasi, so why do you want to apologize? Besides, what does this have to do with Master Corey's personal vendetta?" asked the Foreign Minister.
Warner also looked at Ammu with a puzzled expression.
"Your Majesty, gentlemen. The reason was that the Great Prince of Curasoni tortured a friend of Lord Corey to death. Only then did Kerui take the murderous intention. It is extremely difficult to succeed in this matter. Once it fails, someone might discover it.
, then I, Yasi, will bear a bad reputation. But if Corey takes action in his own name, he is afraid of triggering resistance from the military and civilians across Curacao."
"We all understand these truths. What a bad reputation. I'm afraid our bad reputation has already spread throughout the mainland. Kerui personally looted dozens of big cities and two imperial capitals. But think about it again. Ordinary people only recognize
Strong people, I have never heard anyone call Master Corey a devil. Of course, the nobles are not included." The Foreign Minister said disdainfully, with a sneer.
After hearing what the ministers said, Warner also laughed evilly: "Then find a fake Corey, go and propose marriage to Emperor Curasoni in person, and prepare to marry the little princess."
After listening to Warner's words, the ministers couldn't help laughing. Even Amu also had a smile on his face.
Early the next morning, a team of ten thousand people set off from Thunder Eagle City, including Corey's carriage. Lace dressed in men's clothing and pretended to be Corey and headed for the imperial capital, preparing to fight the fake concierge team, but brought a large number of people with him.
Weapons and equipment of the Lakirion Legion set out together.
There are nearly 100,000 people in this team, all of them are female swordsmen with extraordinary skills dressed as maids.
After Corey received the news of the domestic legion's departure, he immediately stopped pretending to be sick and received the second prince of Curasoni, who had already visited him four times.
Corey was sitting in the center of the front hall wearing armor, while Mengka also changed into his own clothes, with two heavy swords stuck overlapping on his back, which was very conspicuous.
"Your Majesty the Great Magister Lei." When greeting, the Second Prince Curaconi was obviously hesitant. No matter how he looked at him, this man wearing a suit of armor looked familiar. He must have seen him before.
Corey chuckled and raised his hand: "His Royal Highness, you are exempt from the courtesy. You will not be wronged by saluting a prince."
"Prince!" the second prince exclaimed.
"This is Yasi, His Majesty Prince Le-Kori." Mengka shouted, so frightened that the second prince almost sat on the ground. As a prince, Cory was the only one in the entire continent who was given the title of His Majesty.
, this was specially requested by Warner to show the friendship between him and the Corey brothers.
"Lei...Lei...His Majesty Prince Lei-Ke Rui." The second prince stammered and looked at Corey in disbelief. At the same time, he began to carefully recall every portrait of Corey he had ever seen.
Corey sneered a few times and patted it. A girl came out holding a cloak. The second prince recognized it as the one he had forgotten in the tavern that day and picked up the cloak with trembling hands.
"What are you afraid of?" Corey said in a teasing tone.
The second prince gritted his teeth, calmed himself down and asked, "Why did His Majesty the Prince come to our country without formally issuing an edict to our Ministry of Foreign Affairs?"
"Why do you have to go through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs? I am here as a member of the Magician's Guild." Corripi replied with a smile.
"Then, let me know your identity, and why." The second prince was already sweating nervously. This was not the first time he heard about Corey's horror. Wherever Corey went, there was no grass growing.
Corey sneered twice: "I just want to tell you that if your subordinate, that city guard officer, dares to misbehave with my female soldiers, I will kill him personally. If you are dissatisfied, you can ask me for a duel." Meng
After Ka Rui finished speaking, he drew out the two swords behind his back and held them in his hands. The sword energy shook and all the guards around the second prince were knocked back. The swords in each person's hands were broken into several pieces.
"Everyone, step back." At this time, the second prince calmed down. He knew that his guards were not enough to watch. After asking all the guards to step back, he said, "Then, what do you want."
"Huh, I'll give you the throne. I want your sister, and then the two countries will form an alliance. I can also give you some good things." After saying that, Corey patted, and a knight walked in holding a piece of wood. Corey clicked
The knight nodded. The knight placed a thick log more than one meter long on the ground and punched it down, breaking the log into two halves.
The wood is hollow, with some swords inside.
"This is the weapon of our regular army, Yasi. What do you think?" Corey asked with a smile.
The second prince picked up one and looked at it, then picked up the other. He immediately waved his guard captain to come in: "Look at these swords."
After looking at it, the guard captain's face was not excited, but he was ashamed. As the prince's guard captain, the sword he wore was very different from the swords used by the ordinary soldiers of Yasi in front of him. Then he looked up at the knight standing beside him,
He whispered a few words into the ear of the second prince.
"Your Majesty, can you let me see the sword of your guard?"
Corey winked at the knight, and the guard put the sword on the table with one hand, pushed it over, and stood back up with his hands behind his back.
The captain of the second prince's guard hurriedly took the sword on the table. This would make the second prince lose all face. However, in the current situation, he did not dare to react to the knight's rude behavior. It seemed that Corey was arrogant.
The rumors are true.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid that even in the entire Kurasoni, I can't find a few swords that are stronger than these." The guard captain handed the knight's sword to the second prince with both hands.
"Then, how much will you give me?" The second prince put the sword back on the table and asked Corey.
Corey smiled: "I'm not giving it to you, I'm selling it to you in exchange for coins. The price can be a little lower. Let's equip a division."
The second prince didn't care about the life and death of his two brothers and sister at all, he only thought about his own interests. He immediately started bargaining: "You help me get rid of the two brothers, and you can choose as many of my sisters as you want, but I want the two
You must give me at least five thousand sets of equipment for each division as a betrothal gift to my sister."
"Well, it belongs to a princess and is worth such a colorful gift. It's a deal." Corey originally thought that the other party would open his mouth like a lion, but he thought that he only made this request and lost interest in bargaining. "Mengka, give it away.
guest."
After Corey finished speaking, he ignored the reaction of the Second Prince of Kurasoni and walked back to the back hall.
Mengka sheathed his swords and made a gesture of invitation. When he walked to the courtyard gate, a knight leaned against the door with six long swords. When he saw Mengka thrust the sword upwards, he pointed at it.
left.
"These swords will accompany you for your loss, please." Mengka bowed slightly and left.
The second prince and the captain of the guard standing at the entrance of the courtyard looked at each other in confusion, with bitter looks on their faces. The captain of the guard asked his men to pick up the sword stuck on the ground, lowered his head and followed the second prince into the carriage.
"That's enough, I'm a little scared right now." The second prince smiled bitterly, but there was no expression of anger on his face, just helplessness. The captain of the guard also said: "Your Highness, there is nothing we can do about this. Just think about it.
Your two brothers were so frightened that they fainted to the ground just now."
Hearing what the guard captain said, the second prince didn't bother to think whether it was true or not, and always made himself feel a little more comfortable.
Speaking of his brother, the eldest prince Nalim was still in his secret room at this time. Since Hasalik returned that day, he has never left the secret room and has been sending out capable people to find out about Corey.
True identity.
"Your Highness, the spies are here to report. The second prince has just come out of the residence of the great mage Lei, and his face is extremely ugly."
Hearing this report, Narimu smiled for the first time in nearly ten days: "It seems that this kid is also angry, hahaha, and he doesn't dare to show off."
"Your Highness, it's not that you are angry. The spies said that the six guards around him only had swords in sheaths, and they were holding other swords in their hands. And their expressions looked more like they were scared." Hasari said.
Ke looked serious.
"It's scary, this, how is this possible?" Nalimu couldn't believe it.
Hasalik also shook his head slightly: "Your Highness, I can't understand it either. It's understandable that I'm being left out, but I'm scared. I can't understand it. This is the imperial capital of Curasoni.
Yeah, it frightened the heir of an emperor so much that his expression changed. This, this is really unbelievable."
"The maids are all viscounts, and the guards are also nobles. The strength of the two people around you is unfathomable. The moon-shooting bow given to you in return is a top-notch artifact. Who is this great mage Lei?" Prince Narimu said to himself.
Said.
In the small secret room, Prince Narimu kept walking back and forth.
Suddenly, Prince Narimu stopped and said, "I want to see this great mage Lei in person, so I can see how terrifying he is."
"Then my subordinates will make arrangements right away." Hasalik also thought that the eldest prince should go and see him in person.
After he came back, he reported all the details of his day to Prince Narimu, even leaving the moon-shooting knife for himself.
Just as he was about to leave the secret room, Hasalik suddenly turned around and said, "Your Highness, I have something to say. When you see the great mage Lei, no matter what happens, please bear it in."
"Don't worry, I know the importance of it. Since I am willing to go see him, I am mentally prepared." Prince Nalim sighed softly and waved for Kazarik to leave.
"Your Highness is wise." Hasalik then exited the secret room.
Soon Kerui received the invitation from Prince Narimu. Looking at the invitation on the table, Kerui was so angry that he gritted his teeth and kept pulling out his sword again and again.
put it back.
"Kill him." Corey sneered: "He dared to come to the door by himself. If he didn't die, I might not be able to sleep at night."
"So after killing him, the army is still on the way. What should we do? Run away? Then we can turn around and attack Curacao Sony City." Raymond asked back lukewarmly.
Corey stared at Raymond with a weird expression on his face for a long time, then sat down angrily: "I just said it casually, just for fun."
"Just kidding, this joke isn't very funny." Raymond turned his head and ignored Corey.
Corey sat on the ground and kept taking out the sword and putting it back. After a while, Corey slapped his thigh: "I have a very interesting idea. I want to play a game with him. Now that it's delivered to my door."
, at least tease him."
"It's up to you, but you can't kill him anyway." Raymond looked a little worried when he saw Corey. He was really afraid that Corey would be impulsive.
