After Hector was buried, Pei Ziyun took Oenone and Helen back to the house.
When they arrived at the mansion, Helen, who had cried just now, still said sadly: "Oenone, Hector is the person I admire the most among my husband's brothers."
"Six years have passed since Paris brought me, the unfortunate woman, to Troy! In these six years, I have never heard a single evil word spoken by Hector."
"Although King Priam protects me like a father, whenever there is a dispute between brothers, whenever my husband's brothers and sisters come out to scold me, Hector always stands up to persuade them to calm down and relieve me."
"Hector died. I lost a friend and a brother who comforted me. Now, everyone will despise me!" Helen said her sadness, unable to help but burst into tears, and everyone around her sighed.
Oenone comforted: "Helen, although Hector is gone, I feel sad, but we still have Paris to rely on."
Pei Ziyun knew in his heart that Helen had many emotions. Six years ago, she was the queen of Sparta. Now she followed him. If Troy was stable, everything would be fine, but now it is shaky, so she couldn't help it.
Thinking of this, Pei Ziyun secretly shouted: "System."
A plum appeared in front of me, and it quickly grew in size, turning into a transparent information box with a faint light.
"Heroic Bloodline: Level 5 (475.5%%)"
"We are only 25% away from the tenth level. With this amount of experience, we can definitely achieve it by killing a more powerful hero, Ajax, or simply killing Achilles."
There is not much time left for Pei Ziyun now, and the final showdown is getting closer and closer, and he will inevitably have to show off.
When Achilles was killed, it was when the gods abandoned him. Then there would be no gods to protect him, and he would have to rely on himself for everything.
Thinking of this, Pei Ziyun loudly said to the servant: "Gather everyone."
"Yes, Prince Paris." The servant bowed and retreated. Not long after, everyone who had been prepared poured into the garden.
Oenone and Helen looked at each other, stopped crying and comforting, wondering what Paris had in mind.
Pei Ziyun looked around, and the first thing he saw was Gesnie and Keselia, and then the sound of footsteps cascading up, and a group of infantry stepped forward, all wearing leather armor, shining in the sun.
These people were all slaves that Pei Ziyun had bought over the years. These slaves had participated in many wars, and those who had not survived the war had become veterans with murderous intent.
There are also slaves who have special skills, and they all go to the garden to wait for orders. After a long period of experience, they are already able to handle their respective positions with ease.
Gesnie was responsible for contacting merchants, troubadours, and people from other industries in various kingdoms and city-states to establish a complete intelligence network. This was the task assigned by Pei Ziyun, and he completed it brilliantly.
Keselia also made great achievements in business and statistics of goods and money, which made Pei Ziyun feel relieved to entrust all these matters to her.
Everyone lined up and bowed: "Prince Paris."
Pei Ziyun nodded, satisfied with everyone's mental state, and listened to Gesner's report and said: "Prince Paris, the ship is ready."
"Very good, how many ships are there in total?" Pei Ziyun asked, sometimes not as clear as Gesnie and others about his own property.
"Twelve boats in total." Pei Ziyun nodded. With these boats, he could take away some things easily.
Twelve boats, more or less, is enough. Thinking of this, Pei Ziyun asked again: "What about other preparations?"
"The three best craftsmen in the city have gathered together according to your instructions. All the knowledge in the city has been copied onto parchment. These things are all installed on different ships to prevent accidents."
Pei Ziyun nodded and recognized everything Gesnie had done. Gesnie followed him and always tried his best in doing things. Although he usually liked to take advantage of small things, he turned a blind eye to these innocuous things. Close one eye.
"Well, not bad, Gesnie, you did a good job. I hope you will keep up the good work." After asking Gesnie, Pei Ziyun turned to look at Keselia, waiting for her report.
"Dear Prince Paris, I have registered all the belongings and personnel we need to move this time, and some of our less important businesses have also changed hands to collect funds."
After speaking, Coselia took out a thick parchment and handed it to Pei Ziyun. Pei Ziyun took the parchment with a list of property and personnel, nodded, and did not read it immediately.
"Coselia, you have also done a good job. With you and Gesner as my right-hand men, you have saved me a lot of work. I will now officially return your deed of betrayal to you and give you freedom. .”
With that said, Pei Ziyun took a selling contract from the servant and handed it to Keselia.
Coselia took the sale contract with trembling hands. She had worked hard for so long just to regain her freedom. She choked and said: "Thank you, Prince Paris."
Pei Ziyun saw that everything had been prepared and whispered to everyone present: "The above are just my private preparations. I have obtained my father's consent to implement the Fire Plan. Once Troy fails, this will be our rekindle." Capital."
"Father will also send some reliable personnel to join us, not many, the number will not exceed a hundred people."
"My father rebuilt the city of Troy on the ruins. Once the city of Troy is destroyed in this war, we can also rely on capital to rebuild our city-state."
"We want the Greeks to understand that even if we are temporarily defeated and our city-state is destroyed, we have the confidence to rebuild the city-state at any time."
"Except for father and mother, only you know about this fire plan. I hope you won't leak it."
"Yes." Everyone responded.
Most of these people are slaves bought by Pei Ziyun, and their interests are tied to Pei Ziyun. It can be said that everyone will be prosperous and everyone will suffer losses. There is no need to worry about leaking the news.
The elite soldiers sent by the palace were carefully selected, but after all they were not Pei Ziyun's own and were difficult to control, so they still kept these soldiers in the city.
Seeing that everything was ready, Pei Ziyun said to Helen: "Helen, will you follow us or stay in the city?"
Helen thought for a while and felt that it might not be safe if she stayed in the city, so she said, "Together."
Pei Ziyun nodded and said, "Okay, Onone, you take everyone into Mount Ida and turn it into our base. And if something changes, we can pass through Mount Ida at any time and reach the opposite coast." , board the ship and leave Troy.”
Oenone nodded and said: "Dear Paris, don't worry, I will definitely turn that place into our safest base. No one is more familiar with Mount Ida than me. If you follow me, you can guarantee that there will be no loss."
What Onone said was indeed true. She and Paris had grown up on Mount Ida. No one was more familiar with them than she and Paris. Evacuation to Mount Ida would provide better protection.
Pei Ziyun did not secretly build a base on Mount Ida at the beginning of the Trojan War, when he still felt that there was hope of victory.
But he was expelled last time, and when he came back, he made arrangements for the failure of the war.
Because Pei Ziyun understood that the victory of the Greeks in the Trojan War was the ending of the "script" set by the gods. Although some minor changes could be made to the "script" subtly, this ending was not so easily changed.
When Troy was captured, there had to be a place to temporarily resist the pursuing Greeks, and Mount Ida became the target of choice.
There were high mountains and dense forests, and it was impossible for the Greeks to mobilize a large number of soldiers to launch an attack, let alone use large siege equipment.
Therefore, the attack speed will be very limited, which will give those who escaped from Troy a chance to breathe.
Even if Mount Ida could not withstand the attack of the Greeks in the end, after crossing Mount Ida, there were ships arranged on the opposite side, ready to go to sea at any time.
Therefore, Mount Ida is a good place to advance and attack, and to retreat and defend.
"It's a pity that this is the world of the gods." Pei Ziyun didn't think that his plan could be concealed from the gods, so a large-scale base was impossible. The entire staff was reduced several times to only about a hundred people.
"Then evacuate immediately." Pei Ziyun waved his hand and ordered, and when he saw everyone leaving, he fell silent in thought.
"It is impossible to move the treasury in large quantities."
"If the king understands my hint, he will break it into pieces and divide some high-quality goods and gold into more than a dozen points to hide."
"It's hard for the Greeks to dig them all out."
"But these are actually details. Mount Ida is high and densely forested. It is impossible for the Greeks to mobilize a large number of soldiers to launch an attack, let alone use large machinery, but the heroes can catch up."
"So, if you want to escape, you have to pass the level of a Greek hero."
"If nothing else, King Menelaus of Sparta must catch up for Helen."
"If I want to be really rational, I will definitely have to leave Helen behind, but I won't do that unless she feels sorry for me, otherwise I will never abandon her."
"Besides, if I have been working hard for so long, am I just trying to survive?" Pei Ziyun kept thinking hard and gradually gained a lot of experience from the techniques of the gods.
"Look, how do the gods face their fate?"
"We all adapt to our destiny first, but there are small changes in the process, leaving room for change."
"When destiny has generally reached its goal, there will be a twist."
"Behold, Hercules was destined to perform twelve great deeds, but after completing them, the gods immediately acted, without giving him the time or opportunity to continue to accumulate power."
"And continued to follow fate, allowing Heracles to ascend to Mount Olympus. Hera also married Hebe to him, but in a blink of an eye, Hercules was expelled, and even Hebe's marriage was in name only, and it took a long time to see each other."
"In this Trojan War, Zeus did not directly overturn the verdict of fate - fate said that the son of Thetis is more powerful than his father, so find a mortal to marry her."
"This is how the gods deal with their fate."
