Silent.
There was a strange silence.
For a long time, Averigos broke the silence.
"You are very talented, Longtu, more talented than I thought. It's a pity that you put all your talents in the wrong place..."
"You mean, is it wrong to please his great emperor? My general." Anubi asked, squinting.
Averigos said: "I just think he has a better place to use his talents, Your Majesty."
Then he looked at Su Chen: "Are you interested in my army, I can give you an army for you to train. If you do well, I can give you all of my army for training."
Su Chen's answer was: "His Royal Highness Averygus, I think you said something wrong. The army is not yours, but your Majesty. You are only in charge and command of them on behalf of your Majesty."
Averigos' face sank suddenly.
Anubi clapped his hands and laughed: "Well said, Longtu! You have lived up to my expectations of you."
Averigos took a deep look at Su Chen: "Obviously he has great talents, but he just doesn't take the right way."
Then he shook his head and left with a sigh.
Su Chen mumbled: "The expression on this highness is as if I fell into a cesspool and didn't know it..."
Effective provocation.
Anubi's face was gloomy.
He clenched his hands: "This guy really hates me... After Thacker, another guy I hate."
A nobleman said from the side: "His Royal Highness Ivrigus is a loyal minister of the royal family."
Anubi angrily said: "Is this the reason why he can ignore me and provoke me again and again? With the slogan of loyalty, holding the stick of justice, come and beat me as the emperor? Ignore my majesty, power, and status. ! Such loyalty also deserves to be called loyalty?"
Admonishers shut up immediately.
In this case, everyone knows that there will be no fruit to continue speaking for Averigos.
Su Chen said: "As your Majesty said, this is just a general who acts disrespectfully under the guise of loyalty. No matter what merits he has, such ignorance of the emperor and no law is wrong and should not be. ."
Hearing Su Chen's words, Anubi's face looked better.
"You really are my loyal minister, Longtu. As you said, loyalty means to the king. No matter how loyal, it is wrong to ignore the king like this. That's why I want to test their loyalty. They always Under various names and pretenses, prevent me from doing this and doing that. Since I am the supreme emperor, since I am the Lord of the Peoples, then they should all listen to me! Why are there so many objections!" Nubby growled.
"You are right, my majesty. Anyone who is not loyal to you should be punished." Su Chen replied calmly.
The big problem with the faint monarch is that they confuse loyalty to themselves and the loyal country.
In the eyes of these monarchs, they represent the country, and the true emperor should be able to do whatever he wants.
But the next moment, Anubis was discouraged and said: "The problem is that Averigos can’t. Although I can kill many targets I want to kill, there are always some exceptions. I can’t kill Averigos at will. Can't even punish him."
"Because he is the general who guards the western border? Because he holds the military power?" Su Chen asked.
Anubi replied: "Both."
"If this is the case, then seize the military power." Su Chen leaned into Anubi's ear and said.
"What did you say?" Anubi was taken aback.
"As you heard."
Anubi shook his head: "This is impossible. The West can't live without Averigos."
Su Chen said: "I know, I didn't let you do it now. Some things can be done step by step."
Anubi asked: "How to do it step by step?"
Su Chen replied: "A direct and blatant seizure of power is not conducive to your rule, but if you diminish his prestige and control your own army, no one can say anything, right?"
Anubis froze: "What the hell do you mean?"
Su Chen smiled mysteriously: "Remember those orcs?"
Hearing the orcs, Anubi became more confused: "Those orcs that are attacking us? What's wrong?"
"They are at the end of the battle." Su Chen replied: "The battle report came yesterday. It took a day for the orcs to capture the Sanshan Fort. You know that the Sanshan Fort did not have a strong defense. The line of defense there was withdrawn from the front. The defeated troops were organized and lacked weapons, rituals, and medicine. But they still supported it for a day, and even more than two-thirds of the troops were safely withdrawn. It is said that Scarlet Heart personally took action at the last moment of the battle."
Anubi understands a little: "That means their power has ended here, and they are almost powerless to fight. I am not surprised by this result. My staff have discussed this with me long before this. Unless. Two more Demon Kings, otherwise the orcs' destined fate will be a failure and slip away. But so what?"
Su Chen shook his head: "A victory at your fingertips, Your Majesty! It represents prestige, fame, majesty, and the kneeling clothes of the people!"
Anubi was stunned: "You mean..."
"Going out! Going out!" Su Chen stubbornly cut the railway: "This is the best opportunity. The orcs have violated our borders and invaded our country. Your majesty will go out and attack the orcs and defeat them, and I will be better off. What else can be better than this. Better? When you defeat the orcs, your prestige will be as high as the sky, and all the people will admire you and worship you. All the subjects will kneel at your feet, even if it is Averigos..."
Anubi understands.
He squinted his eyes and said, "You make sense. Before that, mobs have been scolding me for not caring about the sufferings of the people, although I really don't care; even the orcs come to attack, because we all know They will retreat on their own. But if I can direct a battle to defeat those orcs, it will be of great benefit to my reputation. Although I don’t care much about reputation, it’s better than nothing. The only problem is..."
"What is it? Your Majesty." Su Chen asked.
Anubi waved his hand: "This is very troublesome. Running all the way to fight a battle, it sounds meaningless."
"No, it's not troublesome. In fact, it's quite interesting. Your Majesty, don't you feel bored in this boring palace every day? The mob has a vast territory and infinite mountains and rivers. You don't have any of these. I have seen them. They belong to you, but you have never touched the beautiful scenery and women there once. There are also wars. Sitting here every day watching those lowly slaves fighting, killing dozens of people, how can you fight Thousands of killings on the battlefield are comparable? That is the real battle of iron and blood, and the blood is surging!"
Su Chen's bewitching words made Anubi's eyes light up: "What you said is reasonable, very reasonable."
Su Chen continued to feed: "What's more, this can also suppress Averigos. His reputation is too high, but if you lead a great victory, it will be different."
"Yes, yes, that's it." Anubi was obviously excited.
He stood up and paced: "I can personally lead the army to the battlefield. The Orcs are at the end of the battle, and now is the best time to defeat them. Those idiots who think I have no response to the Orcs' attack will find out, I , The great Anubi, will bring them a great victory. I will kill all the invading orcs and use their flesh and blood to nourish my land! I will become the supreme king and be praised by all peoples, my The people will dedicate their most beautiful woman to me because they respect and love me."
"That's it, Your Majesty." Su Chen said.
"What if they don't give?" Anubi asked.
"They will." Su Chen replied, "You are the hero who destroys the orcs and the great monarch who killed Scarlet Heart."
"Kill Scarlet Heart?" Anubi shook his head repeatedly: "No, no. This is impossible. Scarlet Heart is cunning and powerful, and he cannot be killed."
In Anubi's plan to destroy the orcs, there is no place for the Scarlet Heart.
As a demon emperor, it is too difficult to kill.
Su Chen: "That's not necessarily, Your Majesty. Have you ever wondered why the orcs, knowing that they are bound to lose, still start this war?"
"Because a damn human clan had stolen his demon palace, Scarlet Heart launched an offensive against the mob in order to recover the loss. These damn bastards!" Anubi cursed.
"That's true. Scarlet Heart wants to make up for the loss, but he can't reach the territories of the human race, so he can only attack the mob. So how much has he got so far? As far as I know, there is only one." Su Chen held up. One finger: "The source energy essence made by the joint sacrifice of the lives of Lord Thacker and dozens of high-ranking generals. What is left is a bunch of insignificant little things, which may be able to fill his empty warehouse, but It is destined to shrink greatly in value. Do you think he will be satisfied?"
Anubi shook his head: "If it were me, I would definitely not be satisfied."
"It is true." Su Chen said in a charming and flattering tone: "So, it is not difficult to kill Scarlet Heart. As long as you bring something it likes, Scarlet Heart will be like a hungry wolf. The same rushed, desperate... At that time, it was our chance to kill Scarlet Heart and establish the majesty of His Majesty."
Anubi's eyes brightened: "Which baby do you think is more suitable?"
Su Chen shrugged: "A lot of babies are fine. The original bone scepter, the three totem boards, whatever you want. More may be better."
At this moment, Su Chen finally revealed his fox tail.
But it is undeniable that an effective suggestion must be a suggestion that can move people's hearts.
No matter what kind of conspiracy Su Chen had, he succeeded.
That night, Anubi made a decision.
He wants to conquer himself and lead the 200,000 army of the Flame Tribe against the orcs.
"History will remember this moment!" Anubi said.
