Chapter 86

Although Bessie knew that the dragon egg was very important to wesselis, they didn't understand pantos's real purpose now.

How did the little king have the courage to promise to go to the meeting alone?

"Your Majesty, do you want to reconsider..."

However, wesselis waved his hand and interrupted Bessie's words.

"No harm."

"Just go to a banquet. What needs to be considered? I believe the governor's credibility."

Wesselis spoke quietly.

"I just need to bring some personal protection."

Then the little king turned his head again, looked at illyrio, and said.

"How is it, governor?"

Illyrio stood there and blinked slightly, as if in a daze.

He didn't expect that wesselis didn't even kowtow. Even if he agreed to the invitation to pantos, he thought he might need to talk again.

Is the young king so brave?

Illyrio suddenly felt that wesselis could lead the family out of the once difficult situation and start the current situation, relying on more than luck.

Although he had no evil intention for wesselis, it was the common will of several other governors to invite the king of the small kingdom to pantos, and they all wanted to meet the successor of tangaryan.

In fact, since andalos began to rise, the governors of pantos paid attention to the newly built town and observed it carefully. Watching it grow gradually, it has become a powerful force close to pantos and can not be ignored.

Even on the way to the rise of andalos, there are some little help from pantos, both overtly and covertly, to help the city develop rapidly.

The reason why pantos made such a small move may not be known except these governors.

"Of course!"

Then the governor of pantos nodded at once, and everything was all right now that wesselis agreed.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that pantos respects the rights of guests as much as he does."

"Murdering guests at a banquet is a heinous crime in pantos, which even the gods will not forgive."

Illyrio snapped his chest and assured wesselis.

But then he thought of something and asked.

"Well, by the way... Your majesty."

"How many people did you just say to bring some soldiers?"

Wesselis just said that he would take "a little" personal soldiers as protection on this trip, but in illio's view, there were only six or seven people, not more than a dozen at most.

This time he ran so far in a carriage, but only with fifty soldiers.

"Yes."

However, wesselis heard illyrio's words, nodded calmly and said.

"My own soldiers are about 4000."

"How much?!"

When the governor of pantos heard wesselis's words, he almost didn't jump up directly. Did the little king of more than 4000 people come to the appointment or attack the city?

Although more than 4000 people can't beat pantos, attacking a huge city-state like pantos requires at least tens of thousands of elite soldiers and siege weapons.

However, the presence of such a large army led by wesselis will undoubtedly cause panic to the citizens of pantos.

Seeing the expression on illyrio's face, wesselis shrugged his shoulders slightly.

"The governor doesn't believe it?"

Then the boy turned to Bessie and asked.

"Bessie, are my guards four thousand?"

The young knight standing next to the throne held the sword handle in one hand and was slightly relieved when he heard the words behind wesselis. It seems that the little king has not lost his calm.

Now Bessie learned that wesselis was very brave and dared to go to bravos alone when he was young.

But what he didn't know was that wesselis was like a frightened rabbit at that time. He would turn pale at the slightest wind and grass.

Then Bessie nodded, holding the hilt of the sword.

"Yes, your majesty."

"There are indeed four thousand of your guards."

This involves the composition of andalos military strength.

Today, the city's standing foreign combat force is more than 4000 brave andar soldiers, all of whom are nominally the pro guards of weseries.

The Longshi naval forces were stationed in remote ports, and the traditional naval forces of tangaryan were not included.

Three or four thousand sailors of the fleet and the Navy, more than four thousand valiant andar soldiers and guards to maintain the basic urban defense of andalos, less than two thousand.

For a city with a population of only 80000, an army of nearly 10000 people can be pieced together. The ratio of population to soldiers has reached 8:1, which is a very amazing figure.

If you don't compare with nomads like the doslaks, you can almost count as the whole people.

Now wesselis is going to take the 4000 most elite andar soldiers of andalos and follow him to pantos for an appointment.

"Your Majesty, will there be too many guards of more than 4000 people?"

Illyrio saw that wesselis's face was not like a joke, and then his greasy face wrinkled into a bitter melon.

He knew that wesselis did not want to believe them.

"Indeed, more than 4000 people are a little too many."

Wesselis stood in front of illyrio, slightly smashed his mouth, then nodded, seemingly casually opened his mouth.

"How about I leave more than 4000 people outside the city and bring only a hundred Knights into the city?"

"Of course!"

Illyrio heard that wesselis had changed his mind and only brought a hundred Knights into the city. He was a little relieved when he agreed.

"Huh?"

However, as soon as his voice was spoken, the rich merchant governor was stunned.

He suddenly felt... Was he fooled?

Wesselis's intention may be to bring a hundred elite Knights into the city, so that even in danger, he may have some resistance. Even with the 4000 people outside, there is a certain opportunity to seize the door and escape, so as not to be completely caught.

"This..."

"All right."

Illyrio's fat face showed a bitter smile. He didn't expect that wesselis was not only brave, but also clever.

"In that case, pantos is waiting for his majesty."

...

Soon.

A few days passed.

Toot——

The long and desolate horn sounded, and 4000 elite andar soldiers from andalos pulled out of their stronghold.

Boom——

The horses were galloping, the banners were waving, and the high spears were like a forest, reflecting the cold light in the sun.

The soldiers protected their king and headed for the velvet mountain, pointing to the rich Pearl of the Bay, pantos.
