Chapter 281

Lijia has been hiding the identity of Prince El Ledo from Yanxing, and Yanxing pretends not to know.

After a few casual greetings, Yanxing took the elves and principality spies out of the city.

With the cooperation of guild mercenaries arranged at the north gate and outside the city, the process of leaving the city was very smooth.

After confirming safety, the spy leader took the remaining spies and escorted the elves north.

Yanxing returns to the city with Lijia.

"Thank you..." Lijia, who finished the task, sincerely thanked Yanxing.

Yan Xing replied, "you're welcome... I'm working with money. When will I get the bill after the matter is done."

Although Yanxing asked a high price for this task, Lijia knew that the price paid by Rose Huating was too insignificant compared with the interests of the principality and the things paid for it.

"Please rest assured that I will have the money ready soon. Thank you again. I think you will soon know who the rescue is and the impact of the rescue on the situation in windy highland.

Your legend will add another story. "

Yan Xing smiled

Of course, sir, I know what I've done.

Isn't he a poor elf prince?

"Hahaha, if you really want to thank me... Let me see your true face. My intuition tells me that you must be a very beautiful woman."

Yanxing's words made Lijia immediately lower her head.

This kind of ridicule made her feel at a loss.

"I'm sorry, your excellency tran. I admire you very much. Your strength and command are worthy of your identity as a legendary thief.

I shouldn't have refused your request, but I still have an important task to perform, so I can't disclose my identity.

Please understand... "

"Nothing... When I didn't say it," Yanxing said magnanimously.

It's also a good leisure to play with a beautiful woman after busy work.

Lijia saluted Yan Xing: "Your Excellency, I'm going to report to my boss that the elves have been successfully escorted out of the city.

I'll let you know as soon as your gold coins are ready. "

"As soon as possible..." Yan Xing, standing on the roof, looked at the dark city and said, "it's going to be windy. After the storm, it's sunny..."

Yanxing and Lijia were separated.

Return to the embassy after confirming that it has not been followed.

At night, weapons from the eternal collar are still being delivered to Newcastle.

The number of guns increased to 200.

Other weapons and ammunition are enough for guild mercenaries to spend three days of fierce fighting.

Yanxing is preparing for the worst.

If storm city really changes its owner and is occupied by the orcs, its own army will shoulder the responsibility of defending newtower city.

It must have been a very hard battle.

Fortunately, when winter comes, the orcs are unable to attack. They only have to defend for a month.

But in the future, facing the long-term blockade of the orcs, my life must be difficult.

Yan's behavior may be hard to prepare for the war.

Regia reports to Mrs. Carol at Rose Court about what happened tonight.

200000 gold coins is a lot of money.

You can buy 200000 sets of high-quality quilt clothes from Yanxing.

It can make the windy highland Legion comfortable for a winter.

"Prince El Ledo's safety is the most important, and you have accomplished this task very well." Mrs. Carol did not intend to default. Being able to have a good relationship with such a powerful thief is only good for the principality, not bad. After praising regia, Carol said, "tell me about tran. From the time you knew him, I was very interested in the legendary thief."

So regia gave Carol a brief account of her understanding of tran.

The assassination of Yanxing

The robbery of the orc Treasury

And the rescue of Prince El Ledo.

Mrs. Carol listened very attentively and interrupted regia from time to time to ask for more details.

Thinking in his heart, if he can be used for himself, he will enhance his strength.

One night

It is estimated that few people in the whole city of newtower can sleep at ease.

Early the next morning, count Theodore began the Abbot's counterinsurgency.

He first issued a magic notice for the whole city, asking all those still loyal to the Theodore family in the city to immediately launch a counterattack against the rebels.

Then he took the peasants recruited all night to attack a nearby barracks.

After recruiting the soldiers in the barracks, continue to attack the next place.

Yanxing deployed 70 guns and 700 guild mercenaries to follow the old count's army.

When the Earl's army encounters buildings that are difficult to conquer, it will send someone to inform the artillery team behind.

The artillery team receiving the support information will contact blowing and give accurate information about the target. The artillery group with a good angle can smash the stronghold held by the rebels.

With the help of artillery, a siege weapon that can follow the movement speed of infantry, the process of the Earl's army clearing the rebels was very smooth.

One stronghold was broken down, and the scale of the Earl army expanded rapidly.

In the afternoon, the defenders of Newtown began a full-scale attack on the rebels.

Those mercenaries who took part in the riot for money surrendered one after another when they saw that their own side was gone.

Finally, the backbone of the Phare lion mercenary Corps fled into the temple.

The head of Jufeng mercenary regiment was assassinated, and the rest fled without trace.

Those who are still making trouble are bandits who take advantage of the chaos and plunder, and they can't lift up big waves.

In the evening, count Theodore basically regained control of Newtown.

He sent people to put out the fire in the city and rescue the injured and lost civilians.

At the same time, he sent an army to surround the temple and asked the high priest to hand over the people of the pharon mercenary regiment.

At the same time, a group of Griffins left Newtown and flew to storm city.

These two days, the contact between the two cities was interrupted.

Count Theodore urgently needs to know if something important has happened in storm city.

Yanxing, who has made great contributions to the anti insurgency, is also invited to the city Lord's residence to have dinner with him.

In such a big restaurant, only the old count and Yanxing sat on the table.

Even there were only four servants to serve.

The siege of the city Lord's residence caused heavy casualties to the servants and guards. Then, in the battle, the count's followers rushed to the front.

This not only accelerated the failure of the rebels, but also brought great losses to the city Lord's house

Not just the city Lord's house.

The whole city of newta was badly hit in the two-day riots.

The urban defense army, which was already short of troops, is now directly cut in half, leaving less than half of the soldiers who can fight.

Moreover, this small half of the urban defense army should not only maintain the order of the city, but also take care of the prisoners, and finally beware of the temple.

If there's any bad news from storm city.

How can Newtown in this state resist foreign enemies?

Count Theodore and Yanxing silently cut the meat chops on the plate, and the metal knife collided with the porcelain plate. The sound was very pleasant.

But the atmosphere in the restaurant is very dignified.

The housekeeper atley poured red wine into their glasses with a plastic bucket.

Count Theodore took a drink from his glass and broke the silence of the restaurant: "I hope there will be no accident to sybel. If I die, she will inherit my title and lead the Theodore family."

The housekeeper hurriedly said, "madam, with the protection of marquis Anderson, you will be fine, and so will your master. If the master feels that you are upset about newtower City, you can ask Lord Yanxing to help you share more affairs.

After this rebellion, it can be proved that Lord Yanxing and your master are one heart. "

Count Theodore waved his hand and said, "I know my body. If it weren't for Hippel and the family, I'm afraid I couldn't hold on until now.

But at my age, even if I die, I have no regrets.

The only thing I'm worried about is sybel.

She is young, impulsive and has such strong strength. I'm afraid she will be used without me. "

The housekeeper followed the old count's words and said, "then find a young man of the right age, mind and strength as soon as possible to be the husband of the young lady.

With the two of them sharing your worries, the master can enjoy himself. "

"Alas..." count Theodore sighed, "it's hard to find such a good young man.

You know the character of Hippel. "

Yan Xing chewed the meat and listened to the conversation between the old count and the housekeeper.

I thought: you two old foxes are here to sing the double reed with me?

Look, I'm a diamond king. It's like letting me into your house?

You're kidding!

Hippel's character and force, when a good brother, is definitely a good friend.

Be a wife.

Can I still stand up at home?

You two have a good abacus. I will never accept it.

Yan Xing cut off the topic and said, "mentor... Now you have surrounded the temple. What should we do if the high priest Lancelot doesn't hand over the people of the Farr lion mercenary corps?"

Seeing Yanxing talking about the temple, count Theodore couldn't continue to guide on the topic just now. He thought for a moment and said, "the military strength in the temple is very strong. We should preserve our strength and try to avoid direct conflict with the temple.

How to solve this matter still needs to wait for the news of storm city.

If the orcs capture storm City, the temple will surely protect the Farr lion mercenaries.

If tempest is in the hands of the Marquis or the principality, the high priest Lancelot knows how to resolve this dispute. "

Without catching the elf secret envoy, the Phare lion mercenaries are useless for the temple.

The reason why Donald's mercenaries are protected now is to make a statement to all forces that tend to the temple. If you serve the temple, the temple will protect them.

Of course, the temple will not be unconditional.

If the silver mane principality still has considerable power on the windy highland, the temple will take the initiative to reconcile with count Theodore and continue to insert nails here.

At that time, the high priest Lancelot would take the initiative to present the head of the pharon mercenary.

Therefore, count Theodore invited Yanxing to dinner to wait for the news of storm city.

We can formulate countermeasures according to the changes of storm city at the first time.

Yanxing analyzed the situation in newtower city once in his heart and said to count Theodore, "I want to go into the temple and talk to the high priest Lancelot."

Count Theodore did not expect Yanxing to make such a request. He asked, "what do you want to talk to him?"

"Let him hand over the Phare lion mercenaries." Yanxing said: "whether the temple is the baophare lion mercenaries, or finally kill them, the result is that the temple has become the winner of the rebellion.

They can do what they want in Newtown, and we have nothing to do with them.

The rebels are hiding in the temple. They can protect and kill if they want.

Although you seem to have calmed the rebellion, your prestige has been greatly damaged.

The temple will do the same thing in the future.

Next time we may not be so lucky. "

Count Theodore understood Yanxing's meaning. Only by forcing the temple to hand over people now can he crack down on the arrogance of the temple.

"But the pretext for the temple to take in Farr lion mercenaries is God's shelter for his believers.

Behind the temple is the Empire and has its own army. If we attack the temple, it will inevitably lead to the direct intervention of the Empire and the temple.

Neither you nor I can bear the consequences of doing so. "

Yan Xing said with a smile, "mentor, you can't bear the consequences. But I can

Withdraw your troops surrounding the temple and replace them with mine.

I'm going to talk to the high priest Lancelot about the compensation now. "

Yanxing's suggestion made count Theodore fall into a period of thinking. After weighing the advantages and disadvantages of many aspects, he finally agreed: "well... You can try, but I hope you can know the bottom line.

Now the situation in storm city is unknown. There can be no more major unrest in newta. "

"I know what to do." Yanxing picked up his napkin, wiped his mouth, stood up and saluted the old count: "I'm going to see the high priest now and try to get things done before dawn."

After saying that, Yan Xing left quickly.

Count Theodore and the old housekeeper looked at each other.

"Master, didn't we agree to talk about the marriage between lord Yanxing and miss?"

Count Theodore came back to himself: "it's bad. The little fox must have seen something and found an excuse to run."

"What should we do?"

The old count drank up the red wine in the glass and said, "forget it. Let's talk about it next time. Now it's the most important thing to solve the temple. I hope this boy can bring me another surprise."

At this time, a bodyguard hurried in from outside.

"Sir, there is news from storm city. Marquis Anderson arrested count FeO who had just arrived in storm city on the charge of colluding with orcs, and executed count FeO at noon today.

Now count FeO's body and charges have been sent to the capital. "

At this news, count Theodore was surprised and then happy. He asked, "is Hippel with the Marquis?"

The bodyguard replied, "miss Hippel is still fighting against the orcs at anjeck castle."

The old count suddenly lost his smile. He asked anxiously, "what's the situation in anjickburg now?"

"Return to your excellency... Marquis Anderson only said that angelk castle was still resisting the orc attack."

"You mean... You met the Marquis, who is still in storm city."

"Lord Hui... Yes, Lord marquis is still reorganizing the army in storm city and checking the traitors who collude with the orcs.

After I arrived at storm City, the Marquis personally met me. The Marquis asked me to tell the Lord that you should not worry about Miss hibell. She is very safe. "

The old count was stunned.
