Chapter 2193 Asking for a Fight
"Commander-in-chief, the king invites you to come over to discuss matters."
In the middle of the night, Lin Jiu was dragged to the palace, or to be more precise, the meeting room. It was still brightly lit in the middle of the night, and as soon as he approached, he heard a familiar voice arguing with a group of scholars.
Lin Jiu entered the meeting room, where there was a negotiation table. On one side were the king of the Kingdom of Peru and other high-ranking officials. Xi could be seen standing on one side. Lin Jiu quietly stood on the other side, and then looked across the negotiation table. It was an old acquaintance, Caesar, who came to demand a ransom.
Caesar was full of fighting spirit, which made Prince Steel Sheep's face turn black. After all, Su Xiao only wanted 40 soul crystals, and the rest that Caesar could negotiate would be his own gain.
Lin Jiu had no room to speak now, and he didn't want to get involved. It was obvious that Prince Gangyang would not give up the opportunity to redeem people, which was why Caesar could act so powerfully here. This king was not as ruthless and indifferent as the Tsar of Sand Flame Kingdom. Otherwise, with the political situation in Peru Kingdom being considered clear, Xi and Lin Jiu would have no chance of taking power.
"Thank you for the gift, the king. We will send the person to Peru safely tomorrow morning." Caesar got enough benefits, and greeted the king of Peru with a smile. With the ransom, a piece of gray stone on his body broke, and he disappeared directly in Gaoshan City and returned to Su Xiao's camp. Caesar used this prop not because he was worried about his life safety, after all, the cousin of the king of Peru was still in Su Xiao's hands, mainly to hurry up.
boom!
"This damn goblin is so greedy!" Although the King of Peru was extremely angry, as a king, he was able to control his emotions. But his younger brother, Prince Iron Sheep, was not like that. He slammed the negotiation table in front of him in anger.
Lin Jiu could understand their anger, not only because it was an insult, but also because Caesar really wanted a lot of things, and the Kingdom of Peru suffered a great loss. Since the royal family changed decades ago, the Kingdom of Peru has been advancing forward. When has it ever suffered such a big loss at the hands of the Sand Flame Kingdom?
"Let's talk about it. We can't suffer this loss in vain. How should we deal with it?" The King of Peru calmed down his anger. He suffered a little loss from Caesar because his cousin was in the hands of the other party. On the front line, he still did not think that the Sand Flame Kingdom would have an advantage.
"King, I am willing to lead the army to kill the enemy." Xi stood up and saluted the Peruvian king. When the Peruvian king saw that it was Xi, he nodded at first, expressing his approval of his desire to kill the enemy, but did not agree immediately.
Lin Jiu stepped forward with a smile and said, "Lord Xi, it is more important to defend the royal city. Just leave this little matter to me. King, I would like to challenge you to fight and enter the territory of Sand Flame from the direction of Walter City to teach them a lesson."
"Hmm." As soon as Lin Jiu opened his mouth, the King of Peru spoke slightly, obviously very satisfied with the role of Lin Jiu in balancing Xi. Moreover, Lin Jiu himself was used in military affairs, which was different from Xi, so the King of Peru was more willing to let Lin Jiu send troops.
The angry Spring Tieyang also wanted to apply for a fight. In addition to Lin Jiu and Xi, most of the military power of the Peru Kingdom was in his hands. Tieyang was not only the brother of the Peru King, but also the commander-in-chief of the Peru Kingdom.
However, after hearing Lin Jiu's strategic deployment, Tie Yang did not speak. As the saying goes, a son of a wealthy family should not sit in the hall. Although he was not afraid of death, he had just experienced the situation of his cousin being captured and blackmailed. This plan of entering the empire was too dangerous and not suitable for him.
If Lin Jiu led his army there, there would be no such problem. Even if they died in the Sand Flame Kingdom, the Kingdom of Peru would be no different from before. It would just be a pity for the 40,000 to 50,000 sheep cavalry. The problem was that the Kingdom of Peru did not know how strong Su Xiao's army was, and did not think that the male sheep cavalry would be lost in the Sand Flame Kingdom.
The Volta City mentioned by Lin Jiu is an important military fortress on another front of the Peru Kingdom, second only to the Segona City. Moreover, the station of the 300,000-strong army of the Sand Flame Kingdom is very close to that front, making it even more dangerous. However, this front is also the most suitable for breaking into the territory of the Sand Flame Kingdom, so the army will be stationed there instead of opposite the Segona City.
"Yes. Then Commander Chiyou will lead the army and call back the 10,000 cavalry stationed outside. Hughes, the logistics supply must keep up." The King of Peru did not hesitate and simply let Lin Jiu lead the army. The Hughes he called was the financial officer of the royal city, who was responsible for the logistics supply of the army.
"Haha, then I hope that Commander Chiyou will have a great victory. Remember to be careful of the army of Sand Flame Nation." Xi smiled and blessed Lin Jiu. At the beginning, Xi was good at leadership, but after being tricked by Lin Jiu and Su Xiao, he naturally improved.
After being tricked again in the Abyss World, he is now not as cunning as before, but much smarter than before. Especially after gaining the power of Lin Jiu's soul, his style has also become more cunning... ahem, more subtle.
Just like now, her relationship with Lin Jiu is just like that of the Emperor of Sand Flame and the High Priest Fauno, who are on the surface opposed to each other, but in fact they are in cahoots with each other. At least the King of Peru is very happy to see this situation. Acting is what Lin Jiu likes to do. As a reincarnation clone, Xi more or less feels the joy of this operation.
Gray Gentleman: My happiness is beyond the imagination of outsiders.
"Let's go!" Lin Jiu led Joseph and more than 40,000 Sheep Cavalry Regiment to the direction of the Walter City Fortress. He deliberately chose this battle line in order not to encounter Su Xiao. Otherwise, if the two of them collided, it would be a mutual consumption and there would be no benefit.
Each of them occupied a front line and fought, and they could all gain benefits, and they could also coordinate with each other. The Walter City side was actually not the best front line, because the main force of the Sand Flame Country was relatively close. But this was what Lin Jiu wanted. It was for this reason that when Lin Jiu entered the territory of the Sand Flame Country, Su Xiao had a reason not to withdraw his troops and return to the Kingdom of Peru when he was unstoppable.
Shortly after Lin Jiu led his army to set off, Xi was also sent out and brought his troops to Shize City. This fortress is backed by half a mountain and is the last barrier in front of Gaoshan City. In the original work, it was the fortress target that Su Xiao originally wanted to attack, but by mistake, he went directly in front of Gaoshan City.
It's different now. At that time, the strongest cavalry regiments of the two countries will be their own people. They can do whatever they want. They don't need to think about how to blackmail, because Caesar is here.
Xi was very interested in the gods of the Sand Flame Kingdom, and wondered whether the gods were dead or alive. Because in the Sand Flame Kingdom's king-killing incident, the Emperor seemed to have colluded with the God of Growing Life, so the gods of the Sand Flame Kingdom were probably not doing well.
Don't forget that the Carlos sisters are the ones who devour the gods. Of course, what they devoured was not the God of Growing Life, but the original god of the Sand Flame Country. Even if this god is not dead, the situation is not much better. Think about the situation when Su Xiao asked for the God of Growing Life and was locked in a cage by Spring Steel Sheep and handed over to Su Xiao. The two gods of this original world are really miserable.
In the central battlefield, in the sandy area, a large number of military tents were distributed here, neatly arranged. As soon as Su Xiao woke up, Caesar ran into the tent. He looked radiant, and his steps were much lighter, and he was about to float. Of course, the most important thing was that the 30,000 war beasts that the Tsar approved for Su Xiao were on their way.
