Roddy was tall, and the armor barely fit around his body, which looked a bit unflattering, but fortunately, he couldn't see it clearly when he was on a horse. It's just that the old magician put on the armor, and it looked quite fitting. The old magician sighed and said with a smile: "There are only two horses here, but there are three of us. What should we do?"
Nidis rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Of course you are pretending to be Oda Nobunaga's cavalry, and of course I am your prisoner. Even if others see it, they will probably think that you are soldiers doing evil and robbing people. Just a woman."
He glanced at the two cavalrymen who had been stripped down to their underwear. The two unlucky guys were shivering in the cold wind, but they didn't dare to show any resistance between their brows. They looked like they were submissive.
Rody frowned and said, "Where are these two guys? Could they be killed with one knife?"
Nidis showed a look of disgust: "No, it's bloody and disgusting." Rody went up and kicked them one by one, knocking them unconscious. Nidis smiled and said: "Okay, let's go find that boy Kukawa Yukinari now. I believe he will be so excited that he cries when he sees us."
I just learned about the current situation in the Dwarf Kingdom from the mouth of the cavalryman. Sure enough, the battle in Kyoto brought huge turmoil to the Dwarf Kingdom!
The great battle in Kyoto not only destroyed the entire Kyoto, but also the shogunate and the imperial palace were completely destroyed.
Fortunately, Kikukawa Yukinari and Oda Nobunaga miraculously survived.
It turned out that that night, the old General Kikukawa was very cunning. From the assassination during the day, he vaguely felt that something was wrong with Oda Nobunaga, so he handed over the investigation task to his younger son Kikukawa Yukinari, who had always been regarded as a waste. Although Kikukawa Yukinari has never been reused, because of that turmoil, the eldest son has basically had no choice but to die due to rebellion. Then the youngest son is the only candidate that General Kikukawa can place his hope on.
This arrangement also hopes that the younger son can grasp some power as soon as possible.
But Oda Nobunaga was not a fool after all. Seeing that the old general seemed to have doubts about himself, he actually took the risk. Before the other party could attack, he used forged military orders that night and took out his cavalry with precision. The old general immediately sent his youngest son, Kikukawa Yukinari, with another of his capable troops, "Maruki", to hunt down Oda Nobunaga!
Originally, Kikukawa Yukinari did not have the courage, so he immediately went to look for Nidis and Rody. He had already regarded these three people as his dependence. But it was discovered that these three mysterious backers were missing! But my father's order cannot be delayed, so I can only bite the bullet and lead the troops to pursue the accuracy...
At that time, Roddy and others were in the illusion of the sacred mountain!
Things are relatively simple after that. In that shocking battle, both Kyoto and the Holy Mountain were destroyed. The shogunate and the old General Kikukawa were naturally finished, and even the royal family of the dwarves was also finished.
There is no living person left on the ground in Kyoto!
After the war, Kikukawa Yukinari and Oda Nobunaga, who were a few kilometers away, were shocked by this huge change. Oda Nobunaga immediately realized that his opportunity had come!
The shogunate is over, the royal family is over! Then I am afraid that I am the most powerful force in the entire dwarf race at present! Maybe... this is just your chance!
In the next few days, Oda Nobunaga's cavalry fought several large and small battles with the "Maruki" troops led by Kikukawa Yukinari. The troops from both sides went all the way south, fighting on their own.
Because Kyoto has been destroyed, there is no evidence of any assassination or rebellion. So Oda Nobunaga simply called himself the new shogun! Along the way, local troops were gathered together, and strong men were recruited among the fleeing people. He Kukawa Yukinari resisted.
After all, Kikukawa Yukinari is much worse than Oda Nobunaga. Facing such a mirror, he was already panic-stricken. At this time, a special character emerges! This person is the samurai whom Kikukawa Yukinari just accepted! Hideyoshi Fengcheng!
This guy is a ruthless character. He actually gave Kikukawa Yukinari an idea and encouraged Kikukawa Yukinari to immediately establish himself as shogun and command the dwarf kingdom in the name of shogun. At the same time, give it to the frontline troops who are confronting the Roland invasion army and ask for their support!
At the same time, he also followed Oda Nobunaga's example and ordered the gathering of small local troops stationed near Kyoto. Although Kikukawa Yukinari's prestige is much lower than that of Oda Nobunaga, who is known as the "Thousand Rider General", he is the son of the old shogunate General Kikukawa after all, so many people are willing to follow him.
Although he himself has no ability, fortunately, the "Maruki" unit he brought out was indeed an elite force under the old General Kikukawa. Kikukawa Yukinari occupied Kawato City, while Oda Nobunaga occupied Kashima Town, and the two sides faced off.
The most difficult thing is the frontline army commander Goyou Senbei who is facing off against the Roland invasion army. He received two orders at the same time. Oda Nobunaga and Kikukawa Yukinari both called themselves shoguns and asked themselves to obey their orders. After Goyu Senbei first got the news of the great changes in Kyoto, he was almost scared out of his wits!
He never thought that the dwarf country would suffer such a big disaster at once! There are powerful invaders outside and strange natural disasters inside. What's even worse is that news actually came that on the night of the explosion in Kyoto, someone saw traces of Yamata no Orochi in the sky in the distance!
Hearing such nonsense, Goyu Senbei's first reaction was: Does God want to destroy our dwarves
However, Goyu Senbei was still waiting to see the orders issued by the two shoguns, with his own calculations in mind. Now he has more than 30,000 troops in his hands, and they are also the elite on the front line. Better than those two guys who call themselves "Shoguns"! These two guys, one is the usually arrogant and annoying Oda Nobunaga, and the other is a cowardly and incompetent young master, why should he surrender to his orders
However, Goyu Senbei didn't have much ambition. He didn't have Oda Nobunaga's idea of establishing himself as a "shogun". His hope was just to stand outside and watch while the two sides were fighting, waiting for the most suitable one. Opportunities are intervening, which also shows their weight, and in the end you can get the most capital! Get the most out of it!
At the same time, another reason why he stood still was the invading Roland army that was staring at him! There is a powerful enemy outside, how can I dare to move? The Roland chariot team scared him. The only way at present is to use the narrow mountain corridor of the island country to defend it with a strong walled city.
Of course, the cavalryman caught by Rody and others could not know so much. He just said the current situation where Kikukawa Yukinari and Oda Nobunaga were confronting each other, while Goyu Senbei on the front line was watching. As for the reason, Nidis guessed it based on the situation.
Rody frowned and whispered: "You still want to find that Kikukawa Yukinari? Is it necessary to cause this trouble?"
Nidis glanced at Roddy and said: "I have put a lot of thought into that boy! If he becomes the master of the dwarf country, I can get the exclusive operation of Ironwood! Do you know how much it costs? "?"
Seeing the disapproving expression on Roddy's face, Nidis rolled her eyes, immediately changed her tone, and said patiently: "Then, you came to the dwarf country just to find the secrets in the sacred mountain. Now Baqi is gone. You are looking for That thing was probably destroyed when the sacred mountain was leveled... We have worked so hard to come here, so why don't we just go back with empty hands? Are you a coward? You have to get some benefits here before going back, right?”
Before Roddy could comment on her words, the old magician's eyes suddenly lit up.
This time King Sauron attacked the Dwarf Kingdom for two purposes. One purpose was to obtain the thing that could threaten the temple. Now it seems that it has failed. The other is to conquer the dwarf country and obtain precious ironwood resources! In this case, Nidis' words do make some sense. If the useless Kikukawa Yukinari can be supported to come to power and become the master of the Dwarf Kingdom, then the Kingdom of Sauron can then control the Dwarf Kingdom!
This is much more cost-effective than killing and injuring tens of thousands of troops and spending countless blood and lives to conquer the dwarf country!
And this can also avoid the wrath of other Roland continent kingdoms! After all, the Kingdom of Sauron's attack on the Dwarf Kingdom is bound to offend the taboos of the other kingdoms. If it only supports an obedient shogun to come to power, it can also avoid the excuses of the other Roland Kingdoms! Moreover, the old magician knew this Nidis. He was a good friend of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and she was just a businessman. All she wanted was financial gain. To give her the management rights of Ironwood, on the one hand, she asked for The Kingdom of Roland can still obtain ironwood resources. On the other hand, the Kingdom of Sauron no longer has to stand in front of everyone and make decisions. Let Nidis resist the anger of other Roland Kingdoms. Even if others hate it, they will only be very angry. She's gone.
Anyway, as long as Kikukawa Yukinari comes to power and the Sauron Kingdom's army supports him, the Sauron Kingdom's army is stationed on the dwarf island country. Even if it gives Nidis some benefits, just let her earn the money of other Roland Kingdoms. !
After thinking about this, the old magician also smiled and said: "I think it makes sense. That little Kikukawa was quite obedient to us all the way, so it would be nice to give him a hand now."
Rody glanced at the old Sith with a sneer, his eyes seemed to have some meaning, and suddenly smiled: "It seems that Master Sith is loyal to His Majesty the King."
Seeing that the old Sith seemed a little embarrassed, Nidis immediately said first: "Rody, the Sauron Kingdom's army is in the south now. Even if we don't help Xiaojuchuan, Sauron's army will still come over. We helped. Xiao Kikukawa, it can be considered that we have avoided a war, and fewer people died, which is not bad..." After a pause, Nidis smiled evilly and said: "We made a scene in Kyoto and blew up the palace. That’s okay, the sacred mountain has been leveled, even if it’s just some compensation…”
Rody looked up to the sky and laughed: "Haha... compensation? You girl, you can talk nicely. I think if that little Kikukawa is controlled by you, I am afraid that you will sell him and the entire dwarf tribe!"
Nidis smiled and said nothing, just looked at Rody without speaking. Although she has only had little contact with Rody, with her intelligence, she has already understood Rody's temper. If there is something that Roddy is determined not to do, then simply rejecting it will be of no use no matter what others say. Now that he has not refused directly, it means that he does not mean to firmly oppose it.
Sure enough, Rody pondered for a moment and said: "My strength has not recovered yet, and the Sith master can't cast magic now. What I'm worried about is that we may not be able to suppress that little Kikukawa now... There will always be someone who can... God. I’m in good health, so I’m sure.”
Nidis smiled and said: "If you want to handle this matter, you have to take two steps."
She seemed to have already thought about it, and said slowly: "I'm afraid the three of us will be separated. You and I will go to see Xiao Kikukawa. This guy is too cowardly, and that Oda Nobunaga is a ruthless character. If our If the young master accidentally gets killed, all my efforts will be in vain. We have to help him. Even if you can't kill Oda Nobunaga and his gang now, let's go and help Kokukawa. It's okay to come up with ideas. Besides, with your current strength, no one in the entire dwarf clan can beat you. There are no powerful experts in the dwarf clan. As long as we don't encounter a large number of troops, we will have no problem in protecting ourselves. After a few days, your strength has recovered, and you can easily kill Oda Nobunaga... Hehe... "
Speaking of this, Nidis seemed to have thought of something, and shook her head casually, saying: "Well, I'm afraid Master Sith will be separated from us... You don't want to go to see Xiaojuchuan with us. You go directly to the south. I want to There is no way to go to Sauron's army there. It won't work if Roddy and I go there. Only if you go can you give them orders..."
The old magician frowned and said, "What am I going to do there? Do I want Sauron's army to stop attacking?"
Nidis glanced at him, glared and said: "Of course not!" Then she showed a bit of a bad smile on her face and said: "You went there and asked them to speed up the attack! The resistance troops on the front line must be moved as soon as possible. Hit the cross!"
Sith shook his head and said, "Why is that?"
Nidis sighed and said slowly: "Don't you understand this? When we go to see Xiao Kukawa now, it's not like last time. The last time we saw him, he was just an unsuccessful young master. He has no power. Now that he has established himself as shogun and his subordinates have gained certain military power, I am afraid that he may not be as obedient as before. Although he has a big enemy like Oda Nobunaga, if the troops on the front suddenly support Xiao Kikukawa, then he probably won't need our help, and he won't value us so much, so you must let Sauron's army defeat the dwarf frontline resistance army as soon as possible, leaving Kikukawa with no choice but to do it! Count on us!”
The old Sith smiled bitterly and said: "I think things may not be that easy... The battle situation on the front line is still stagnant. I think there must be some difficulties. Do you think Sauron's army doesn't want to defeat the enemy? Until now, the dwarves The dwarves are still resisting and are actually able to hold our army firmly in the south. I think the dwarf army is not easy either. Although they were defeated by us at the beginning, they seem to have responded very quickly. "
Nidis thought for a while and said: "Then we can only do our best. Even if we can't defeat the dwarves' frontline army, we can at least seriously injure them! This will show our strong strength and make Xiaojuchuan afraid of us. ! Let him understand that even if he defeats Oda Nobunaga, he cannot rest easy! "
Rody suddenly said: "It is not difficult to defeat the dwarf army on the front line..."
"Oh?" Nidis's eyes lit up. Although she still doesn't know Rody's true identity as the Tulip Duke, she has already established the concept of "Rody is invincible" for Roddy, a super master.
Rody pondered for a moment: "Of course you don't understand the war. In my opinion, the frontline troops of the dwarves will probably support Xiaojuchuan!"
"Why?" Nidis frowned.
Rody smiled and said: "Don't you understand this? Do you think that war is as simple as the commander-in-chief of the army leading a group of soldiers to charge? War consumes money and food! It is supplies! Now the frontline resistance of the dwarves is in the south. During the battle, all their supplies were shipped from Kawato City! And now Kawato City is in the hands of Kokukawa! Therefore, I don’t think the frontline troops can wait long until they are in need of supplies. , will fall to Kokukawa. I'm afraid Oda Nobunaga also understands this truth, otherwise he wouldn't be so anxious to recruit people and gather refugees!"
"Then what should we do?" Nidis felt a little anxious when she saw that her plan was not working.
Rody smiled slightly: "It's nothing. It's just that although you are smart, you still don't understand the war. In fact, there is no way to think of it..."
"Oh?" Nidis's eyes lit up, and even the old magician looked at Rody with hope. Master Sith is different from Nidis. He knows Rody's identity, that is, the famous Tulip Duke who is invincible in the Bright Continent! For this kind of war, if Roddy said there is a way, then there must be a way!
Rody sighed, picked up a stone from the ground, and quickly drew four parallel circles on the ground.
"Then, these four circles represent the four forces currently on the dwarf island country... The first is Oda Nobunaga, the second is Kokukawa, the third is the dwarf resistance army on the front line, and the fourth is It's Sauron's army." Rody said with a smile: "Now there is Oda Nobunaga in front of Xiaokukawa, and behind him is the resistance army on the front line. What he hopes most at the moment is to get the dwarves on the front line. The support of the clan's resistance army! And what he fears most is that if the resistance army on the front line turns to Oda Nobunaga, he will be caught in the middle, and he may be finished at any time!"
Nidis's eyes lit up and she immediately understood something!
Rody glanced at her and continued: "Since Xiao Kikukawa has this kind of fear in his heart, we might as well further aggravate his fear! Let him fall out with the resistance troops on the front line first! As long as he is willing to block Kawato City's At this level, military supplies are not allowed to be transported to the south... By then, even if the dwarves in the south do not resist, they will be forced to do so! Even if the resistance forces on the front line are still extraordinary, the supplies are blocked, so the need for It’s not difficult for Lun’s army to defeat them!”
Nidis also laughed, clapped her hands, and said with a happy smile: "That's right! When Sauron's army on the front line defeats the resistance army of the dwarves on the front line, which is in chaos, they can march north! As for Oda Nobunaga, huh, I heard that there is another "Maruki" army under Kokukawa. If Kokukawa and Oda Nobunaga fight to the death, it would be better if both armies fight to the death! Lun's army was killed, and we supported Xiao Kikukawa to become the shogun of the dwarf country... Hehe, but this Xiao Kikukawa's subordinates no longer have their own army! At that time... Even if he wants to be disobedient, he can't! "
Having said this, this beautiful woman showed a smile unique to profiteers.
No one knows that the series of tricks that exploited the dwarf people and almost sold their pants were actually planned and decided in a hurry by these three people on the road to escape... "
The old magician next to him was secretly frightened when he heard this. He couldn't help but take a deep look at Roddy and said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect you to plan such a trick and be so vicious! It's completely different from your usual behavior."
Rody said calmly: "That's what war is like. If you want to win, you have to do whatever it takes! Victory is the only goal."
The old magician sighed, as if muttering to himself: "No wonder... No wonder we were beaten so badly by you under Thunder City... You..." At this point, he suddenly woke up and immediately stopped talking and looked. He glanced at Nidis, coughed twice, and said: "In that case, let's leave quickly. When we get to Kawato, you go to see Xiao Kikukawa, and I will continue to go south to find our Sauron's army."
Rody frowned and said, "It's okay to go to Kawato, but the way you go south is a war zone. I'm afraid it won't be easy for you to cross there alone."
The old Sith smiled proudly and said: "My magic power has also recovered a little. Although it is not healed yet, I can still use some low-level invisibility skills. As I go along, my strength will become stronger and stronger. You don't need to do this." Worry."
He suddenly smiled: "The only thing I'm worried about is that Xiao Kukawa. He is indeed a playboy with no ability. Those 'marukis' under him don't know how powerful they are. What I'm worried about is that maybe Before I arrived with Sauron's army, you were defeated by Oda Nobunaga! Now you are no longer a strong man in the field. You have to save your life in the chaos!"
"Hmph..." Rody seemed to snort lightly, as if he glanced at the old magician lightly, with a deep smile on his face: "If I really die here, wouldn't it be just right for your king?" Do you understand?"
The old Sith smiled dryly, seeming a little embarrassed. Rody sighed inwardly, regretting that he had stabbed the other person in such a way. In fact, he didn't have much prejudice against Sith himself, especially in the battle a few days ago. In the end, Sith risked his own strength to help participate in the battle. In a sense, if Sith hadn't fought hard to break the If he hurts his strength to heal Baqi and lets him hold his crazy self, I'm afraid everyone will be doomed that day.
Moreover, even if the Kingdom of Sauron is afraid of himself as the Tulip Duke, he will eventually find a way to cross the river and destroy the bridge to plot against him, but not now. After all, the time has not come yet.
Hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war have not been released yet, and the king does not dare to plot against himself. Otherwise, without the return of hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war, the Roland people would not have the capital to deal with the temple.
Thinking of this, Rody smiled, changed his tone, and said: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, don't worry. I will definitely be fine. Although that Xiao Kukawa is a playboy, he is, after all, Having grown up in the shogunate, you may not be a straw bag.”
Having said this, Roddy couldn't help but think, must Playboy be a waste? Not really! Let’s not talk about others, but the current playboy in our family is an amazing guy!
The three of them decided to head south, in the direction of Kawato City. The three of them rode horses all the way, which saved a lot of time.
Occasionally, I encountered some scattered refugees on the road. When I saw Rody and the old magician dressed in cavalry, they were all scared and ran away. When they met some of Oda Nobunaga's cavalry, they all headed north of the main road without stopping, presumably to intercept the refugees. Occasionally, some people would interrogate Luo Di and others, and Luo Di and others would just talk nonsense to fool them.
Although there were holes in their costumes, Oda Nobunaga's men and Kokukawa's men had fought several times in the past two days. It was not surprising that the soldiers' armors were in pieces. In addition, there was a beautiful woman (Nidis) sitting on Roddy's horse, who also looked embarrassed. Those soldiers of Oda Nobunaga showed knowing smiles when they saw it, and some of the rude ones even laughed and cursed loudly. : This guy actually stole a pretty girl! Brothers, keep going, let's go to the front and grab some pretty girls for fun!
As for the occasional ones who didn't have eyes, they were beaten to the ground by Rody. Although Rody's strength is far from the realm level, as he goes south, his body gradually recovers some strength, and he is more than enough to deal with these soldiers. As long as he didn't encounter a large army, he would still be able to do it with ease.
I saw a fork in the road. To the left was Oda Nobunaga's Kashima Town, and to the right was Kawato City occupied by Kokikikawa.
The three of them figured out the direction and headed towards Kawato City. However, within a moment of walking, they heard a cry of killing coming from the front. A group of about twenty samurai-looking people rode on horseback and yelled at Roddy San. People rushed over, and those on horseback shouted loudly: "There are cavalry from the Oda rebels! Kill them!"
The horses' hooves raised dust, and more than twenty shining samurai swords rushed towards Rody and the others. Roddy gave a wry smile, glared at Nidis, and thought: It was all your idea. Now it's better, we are wearing the armor of Oda Nobunaga, but we are being chased by Kokukawa's people!
