"sorry."
The young Marquis of the Opulu Empire, Mox, stood at the gate of a large mansion, imitating the manner of Chu people and speaking politely. Wearing the imperial tight military uniform, he looked a little strange and ridiculous. This is a very large house, which used to be the Minister of the Ministry of Officials of Chu State.
This old man with power over the government and the public was also the first batch of courtiers to bow down to foreigners.
Of course, this bought him a long period of tranquility. No matter how fierce the soldiers of the Opru Empire were, no one came to their house to make trouble. So during this period of time, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials never felt that he had done anything wrong. Although he turned his back on his country and nation, he didn't turn his back on his family.
"I know it's really impolite to visit so presumptuously, but I have to visit because of some urgent matters."
Standing at the door, Mox spoke like this to a boy in blue clothes and soap boots, which made people feel even more ridiculous. And the bewildered boy made Mox feel bewildered.
"Our adults haven't woken up yet... If you have anything to do, can you come back later?"
The boy said so.
Mox was a little disappointed: "Then please go in and tell him, I want to borrow something from him."
"good."
The boy nodded quickly: "You will wait later."
After speaking, he turned around and ran inside.
Mox then waved his hand: "Don't kill people after you go in. This person is obedient to His Majesty. Of course, if someone resists, he should be punished. If there is a beautiful woman, then I will personally carry out the punishment." alright."
Following his gesture, at least two hundred soldiers of the Opru Empire Army with live ammunition rushed in.
The huge chariot was parked on the side of the street, and Lehman, who was leaning on a chair, took a look at the soldiers who poured into the official secretary's house.
"Mox should wait and do things after seeing the master's family."
He couldn't help but shook his head: "This is really rude. As a nobleman, if you forget your manners, it really shouldn't be. Come here, tell Mox, and remember to talk to the official secretary after letting him in. My lord, I apologize."
He seemed to be in a good mood, so the smile on the corner of his mouth was very clear.
"Kirkbo, I ask you..."
Lehmann asked: "After we conquer a nation, what do we need to do to make this nation feel at ease as a slave in the shortest possible time? Don't tell me to treat things like this equally. I will take the noble people of the Opulu Empire to conquer The world will naturally not let those captives become people with the same status as the people of the empire."
"So… "
Kirkbo replied: "It can only rely on killing."
Ke Kebo has begun to like to wear the clothes of the Chu people with toga and long sleeves, because this kind of clothes are more comfortable and casual to wear than the clothes of the Opulu Empire. He escaped a book from his cuffs and handed it to Lehman with both hands: "This is a book I started reading a few days ago. Experience. From this book, it seems that a lot can be learned.”
"Let's talk about it first."
Lehman said after taking the book.
"The Mongol Yuan Empire has continued to expand its territory since the founding of the country, and it is now a country with a territory larger than that of the Sui Kingdom. In this long history of conquest, the Mongol Yuan people only use One way is to kill."
"In the thirteenth year of the Mengyuan calendar, the cavalry of the empire broke through the Iron Chariot Kingdom, and the Iron Chariot Kingdom resisted extremely. Immediately, the Great Khan ordered that all the people in the capital of the Iron Chariot Kingdom be massacred, a total of 136,728 people. The scimitars of many soldiers of the empire were cut out, and the blood stained the yellow sand gray."
"In the 22nd year of the Mongolian calendar, the imperial army under the leadership of Secret Service attacked and wiped out the Fuller tribe. This tribe had ruled in the southwest of the grassland for three hundred years. It was meaningless to resist in front of the imperial wolf cavalry. Secret Service captured The Khan and all his descendants of the tribe were captured, and then ordered to tie them behind horses and drag them to death. After this battle, the population of the Fuller tribe dropped from at least 1.3 million to only a few hundred thousand. Almost covered the grass field."
Ke Kebo recited the words in the book verbatim.
"Massacre the city, exterminate the clan."
Ke Kebo said: "The history of Meng Yuan's conquest has never left these four words. So that no one dared to resist where Meng Yuan's army arrived later. This book says that the founding of Meng Yuan has already For more than a thousand years, at least tens of millions of people were massacred.”
"That is to say..."
Lehman nodded and said, "In this way, can an empire last for thousands of years?"
"It seems... so."
Kirkbo replied.
"So Hurons' strategy in the eastern border of the Sui Kingdom was wrong?"
Lyman asked again.
Kirkbo replied: "It looks like it is."
"You can go one step ahead of me."
Lehman waved his hand: "Go ahead, I know that there has been disharmony between you and Schulence, so I didn't take it seriously when you said a lot of bad things about Schulence in front of me, just like he said in front of me You are the same. I will not take such words seriously, and of course, I will not fail to recognize the useful things in them. After Mo Kesi has integrated the army of the Chu people, I will follow behind him with an army of 100,000."
Lehman said: "If you can take down the Phoenix Terrace, I will do what you wish, let Xiulunsi go home to retire, and let his family take off a star."
In the current Opru Empire, there are only six or seven families with five stars below their crests. Among them is the Hurons family, ranking only one place ahead of the Kirkbo family. If one star is removed, then the Hurons family will completely withdraw from the ranks of super families.
"Thank you Your Majesty!"
Kirkbo nodded his thanks vigorously, but his heart was very painful. He wanted to curse in pain, but of course, he didn't dare to curse.
This was not the result he wanted. He wanted to stay by Lehman's side to make suggestions instead of leading troops to the battlefield himself. Only a fool like Hurons is willing to stay on the battlefield for the benefit of the family, and Kirkbo insists that it is a very idiotic behavior.
Military merit is indeed very attractive, but it is also very close to death.
Only now did Ke Kebo know why Emperor Leman was so powerful.
Because he... will not be influenced by anyone's words.
Therefore, Kirkbo was somewhat disappointed and regretful.
I just said bad things about Hurons, I said too much.
At this moment, wailing came from the big house opposite, and a young maid rushed out of the door, and was dragged back by the soldiers of the Opru Empire. The noise was so loud that even the side of the chariot could hear it clearly.
"this is not good."
Lehman shook his head: "It is not good to be influenced by people knowing that my subordinates are so rude. Go and tell Mox, if there is such a sound in that yard within ten minutes, I will take back his marquis's dress and then Give it to a dog."

Dongjiang
Phoenix Terrace
Nalan Dingdong glanced at the one-armed man who was sitting quietly reading a book by the window, and felt that this man's personality was changing more and more. So Nalan Dingdong hesitated, should he tell him the news he just got. Because this matter has a close relationship with him, after all, the protagonist of the matter is his father.
"Is there any news from the Mu residence?"
Mu Xianjun put down the book in his hand, looked at Nalan Dingdong and asked a question.
"You can always guess what someone else's emotions are?"
Nalan Dingdong sat down opposite Mu Xianjun and poured himself a cup of tea. After getting along for such a long time, the relationship between the two of them became more and more like friends.
"Mu Zihuan is dead?"
Mu Xianjun asked again.
The tone is very light, without a trace of waves.
"Um."
Nalan Dingdong spat out the piece of tea that he drank into his mouth: "Your father kept the information tightly sealed, so he didn't find out until now. After Mu Zihuan went back, he really put all his eggs in one basket to assassinate your father, but failed. Your father In a fit of anger, he ordered Mu Zihuan's lineage to be slaughtered... all of them were killed, not one left. Of course, including the eldest son who has been adopted by your father and is happily preparing to inherit the position of Patriarch in the future."
"So you're happy?"
Mu Xianjun looked at Nalan Dingdong and asked.
Nalan Dingdong shrugged his shoulders: "Of course this is good for me. I have never denied that the Black Banner Army will replace Mufu in the future. But not now, but after defeating the foreigners. Although the Lord sent The purpose of my coming is to assist the Mu Mansion to drive out the foreigners, but the current Mu Manor has no need for assistance."
He pointed to his nose: "So I had to make a new plan and ask everyone to assist my Black Banner Army to drive the foreigners out."
"Fang Jie will be very happy to have a subordinate like you."
"Your father must be very unhappy to have a son like you."
Nalan Dingdong's tit-for-tat sarcasm.
Mu Xianjun's face changed suddenly, but he quickly regained his composure: "You are always trying to provoke me, what good is this doing to you?"
"The good thing is..."
Nalan Dingdong said seriously: "I keep irritating you, and then you keep lowering the bottom line of your anger. After a few days, it will be difficult for you to be irritated by me again. What I get is that the more you I will be less and less angry because of the Mu Mansion, until I destroy the Mu Mansion. Because your cultivation level is still quite terrible, and gradually softening you, the biggest advantage is that you may not kill me in the future."
"Mu House has nothing to do with me."
Mu Xianjun shook his head: "So you don't have to think so hard, since the day when my Red Eyebrow Army fell in the Shili Gorge, the Mu Mansion has nothing to do with me."
"Then can I ask you something?"
Nalan Dingdong asked: "The internal turmoil in the Mu Mansion is so severe now, if I don't take advantage of the chaos and grab the food from Zhenyang City, the food problem of more and more teams under me will not be solved."
"What does it have to do with me?"
"Help me defend the Phoenix Terrace."
Nalan Dingdong suddenly said seriously: "After I leave with my troops, I need someone to help me take over the city. If there is no accident, the foreigners will take action soon. If the Phoenix Terrace is lost, it will have a huge impact on the battle situation."
Mu Xianjun's face changed drastically: "Do you believe me?"
"Do not believe."
Nalan Dingdong stood up and smiled: "But, you are the most suitable candidate."
