Chapter 756 Sowell's Choice
The night was getting darker, and whether it was the city wall building or the barbarians who were queuing up to register, they all dispersed. The new Danluo City finally returned to peace.
However, under this calm, there is still an undercurrent.
There was a team of people in the temple outside Danluo City, about twenty people, who quietly left in the night. They were all immortals, with light skills and extremely fast speed. However, the leader's legs and feet were a little inconvenient, and they had to support one person on the side.
They walked northward, relying on their familiarity with the terrain of the Barbarians, and headed towards the port of Flata.
You can see under the moonlight that the leader's legs and feet are the ghost witch Sudari in the temple.
"Master Ghost Witch, when you go to Port Flata, can you really join forces with General Sowell and then destroy the invaders from the Northern Jin Dynasty?" asked a accompanying temple guard in disbelief.
"That's right. My news tells me that the invaders did not occupy the Port of Flata." The ghost witch said with a hatred, "Aguna, that stupid woman, actually believes that these fierce and cunning Northern Jin people will cooperate with her and rebuild the Temple of the Waste God for her? Even if this is true, then after losing the heart of the mountain ghost, what value can I have in the temple? Will I listen to her in everything in the future? We, the servants of the Waste God who pay the most attention to the inheritance of the mountain ghost, will never accept it!"
"Yes, it's not acceptable!" said the guards accompanying him.
After walking for a long time, the crowd finally arrived at Port Frata before dawn. At this time, the port was also in chaos. The remnants of the retreating barbarians and panicked fishermen were coming and going everywhere.
"Is there any news about General Sowell?" Sudari also asked, pulling a group of barbarian soldiers who had just driven a fishing boat back from Ze.
"The general has learned the news of Danluo's fall. The news spreads, and the entire army is in chaos. Everyone is rushing to come back to see their families. The general and the others should be at the end, and they are almost here." The group of barbarian soldiers replied.
Outside the Port of Flata, there were a group of small groups of barbarian fishing boats waiting for the port, filling the originally small fishing port. In the end, the largest group of fishing boats waiting for the port, and Sowell came back.
After he got off the boat, he saw the entire port panic and frowned. So he first gathered his confidants, and then gathered some credible barbarian soldiers to gather the remaining soldiers. After a while, he actually gathered nearly 15,000 barbarian soldiers who had originally collapsed.
Sowell still has a certain ability to lead troops and manage the army.
After rectifying the army and restoring the order of the port of Flata, Sowell also received more news from the defeated barbarians from the Danluo area. Then, he took his men to the landing site of the Jinyuan army. Looking at dozens of large hovercraft, Sowell was stunned.
He had never seen such a strange ship, nor had he ever heard of the Northern Jin people able to make it. However, what a wonderful idea is that by installing an airbag-like thing on the hull, the ship can be free from being restricted by the near-marine terrain and without any risk of being stranded.
"Is it General Sowell?" someone shouted to him nearby.
When Sowell looked back, he saw that he was a barbarian. He was born tall and mighty and extraordinary, not like an ordinary barbarian soldier in the clan.
"I have something important to report to you," the man continued.
Hearing this, Sowell took it seriously and asked his personal soldiers to take him to his tent.
"General Sowell, I am the envoy of the Jinyuan army and the nephew of the former patriarch of the Baiyue tribe. My name is Abeli. We have seen it at a banquet." The man introduced himself.
"Abeli?" Sowell had an impression, but his expression was cold. "The Jinyuan army is the army that captured Danluo? The Northern Jin people?"
"We only belong to Jinyuan, not Northern Jin." Abeli said, "I am here to send a letter to the general under the order of the young master of Jinyuan." As he said that, he handed Jin Ling's letter to both hands.
Sowell also has the destiny of a general. He did not get angry because Abeli was used by the enemy, but opened the letter paper and read it first. He also learned the common word for Eternal Night, and it seemed that the letter was not accessible.
After reading it, he snorted coldly: "The Young Master Jinyuan asked me to surrender to him like Galavar, Mushayi and others? Although Galavar is my former boss, I do not agree with his behavior of betraying the Manchu tribe! You have few people, and the army led by them is even more dispersed! I can drive you back to Jinmanze in less than a day!"
"The interests of the young master of Jinyuan have already made it clear in his letters." Aberi said patiently, "First of all, Danluo City has been initially built. The Jinyuan army has a large number of bows and arrows and firearms, as well as many powerful immortals, and more than 10,000 servants and barbarians. You may not be able to attack."
"Secondly, there are many families of soldiers in your army in Danluo City. The reason they retreated from the sea was because of their families. Now everyone's family is still safe, and many people have registered and willing to become citizens under Jinyuan. If you let the barbarians attack for a strong attack, it will only cause casualties to their families, and they may not be willing to fight. The retreat will happen again."
"Third, you 20,000 people only brought enough food for several days. The food in the Shangui tribe is mainly stored in Danluo City, and now it is under the control of Jinyuan. The barbarians have no habit of storing food with them, and the place is remote and not rich in production. In less than two or three days, the soldiers who are starving with red eyes will collapse without fighting. If you want to attack and rob, Jinyuan will definitely burn all the food before retreating and starve to death together."
"Fourth, the young master of Jinyuan and the leader of Galavar have agreed that as long as you surrender, the leader of Galavar only cares about government affairs, and you are still the highest military general of the Shangui tribe, which can guarantee your status. If you don't believe it, look at the two surrenders, Galavar and Mushayi, how happy they live now."
"Fifth, you don't have to worry about Baiyue and Loufang's troops. The two armies on the left and right of the Northern and Jin dynasties will continue to put pressure on them. They will be too busy to take care of themselves, so there will be no time to deal with you. Moreover, as long as you surrender and the Shangui tribe is united, they will definitely not dare to invade."
"Sixth, the temple has agreed with Jinyuan to jointly build the Shangui Tribe, and to build the barren and backward Shangui Tribe into the richest place among the three barbarians, and to build Danluo City into the brightest pearl near the southern bank of the Manze. At that time, all the people of the Shangui Tribe will live a good life and completely bid farewell to the current poor life!"
Sowell listened carefully to Abeli's words and thought carefully. Although he could lead troops, he was not a reckless man, but a person who was very considerate of the overall situation. Jin Ling's words in his letter and Abeli's retelling brought him a great impact.
He knew how unbearable the mountain ghost tribe under Epira's rule was, how poor the people were. If, if these outsiders could really change this way...
"No, absolutely not!" Sudari suddenly rushed in with his accompanying guards and gritted his teeth, "General Sowell, you must never surrender to the invaders of the Northern Jin Dynasty!" (To be continued)
