"Okay, okay, Count Chai Ying's wife is waiting! We all know how we miss our children. Just go home as soon as possible, Count Chai Ying." Gongsun Lie said angrily, then waved his hand.
Chai Ying left quickly. Chai Ying was also a cheerful person. He stood up, bowed to Gongsun Lie and everyone present, then turned and left.
Seeing Count Chai Ying's impatience in hurriedly going home to take care of his wife, Gongsun Lie and the other nobles on the scene also laughed heartily. Let the idlers like them handle the matters here now! At this moment
, the other nobles could not help but secretly make up their minds.
Just an hour after Chai Ying left, a general who was supposed to be directing the battle on the front line suddenly walked in from outside the hall. The general was covered in blood and looked seriously injured, but he still struggled to rush back, panting heavily.
When he arrived at the palace, he was probably as far as he could go. He staggered a little, and in the next moment he fell to the ground. There was only a "pop" sound, and bright red blood was spilled on the palace.
The ground and the palace hall were instantly filled with the faint smell of blood, and it was at this moment that Gongsun Lie and others suddenly reacted.
"Hey! What on earth is going on?" A silver-haired earl suddenly stepped forward to help the general who fell to the ground and asked directly, with a hint of anxiety evident in his expression. This one
The general also had some friendship with him, and he wanted to try his best to save the general's life if possible. He took out a healing elixir directly from the space ring, and the silver-haired Earl was about to stuff the elixir into the general's mouth.
, but at this moment, the general gently pushed away the silver-haired earl's hand, and then said breathlessly: "Come on, it's too late..."
"What's too late?"
"The rebels... are about to break through the gate of Yawang City... Why... why don't you send reinforcements to the front line..."
"Sending reinforcements? What are you talking about? Didn't our side still have the advantage before?" The silver-haired Earl asked anxiously, but in the next moment, the general died immediately after letting out his breath, without even the final reason.
After telling the story completely, his life was over.
The silver-haired earl felt a sudden pain in his heart. The general had a close friendship with him, and it was definitely not a pleasant thing to watch his friend die like this. He shook his head and sighed softly, and gently closed the door of the general who was unwilling to close it with his hand.
With his eyes raised, the silver-haired count gently laid the general on the ground, then turned to Gongsun Lie and said: "Report to the vassal king, General Ma Sheng is dead..."
"What is going on? Who can tell this vassal king what is going on!?" Gongsun Lie slammed his palm on the table, and he couldn't help but shout loudly when he was unhappy! All the nobles on the field
They all became quiet and did not dare to make a sound. Even they could not understand what the situation was like. Under normal circumstances, if there was a report of retreat from the front line and a request for support, someone would have been sent to report it. However, in fact
However, no one came to ask for support. Just imagining this kind of thing makes people feel weird. According to General Ma Sheng, they had sent several soldiers to ask for support, but in fact, not a single soldier came to ask for support.
This can only make people think of two possibilities: first, those soldiers sent to ask for support are all traitors; second, those soldiers sent to ask for support were all killed! These two possibilities, use your brain
Think about it and know that the second scenario is more likely.
The silver-haired Earl was still able to remain calm. He thought for a while and then explained his own guesses to the audience. Although these guesses are easy to come up with, there are many people who can't think of them when they are not calm. The silver-haired Earl thinks that
In this case, it is necessary to explain to the nobles on the field.
Gongsun Lie also calmed down a little. After listening to the words of the silver-haired earl, he felt that they were reasonable. Then he closed his eyes and said to himself: "But, who killed all the messengers silently?
?”
"After thinking about it, it can only be a good thing done by the people of 'Shadow'." The nobles on the scene all expressed their guesses, and finally came to the conclusion that this was a good thing done by the killer organization "Shadow". "
The people in the "Shadow" are divided into two parts, the "Left Shadow" and the "Right Shadow". If the "Left Shadow" of the Emperor's Protector Faction is the "Left Shadow", it is unlikely that they will take action against the soldiers of the Great Britain Empire. In this case, the murderer is "
It seems to be a matter of course for people who are "right shadow".
Gongsun Lie listened and couldn't help but nodded secretly. He had also heard about the split within the "Shadow", but he did not expect that the "Right Shadow" would have such great ambitions to overthrow the Great Britain Empire. If according to this
I am afraid that the strength of "Right Shadow" alone cannot carry out such large-scale actions. In this case, "Right Shadow" uniting with other forces to rebel is obviously the easiest possibility for people to think of.
"Earl Luo Jiang, can you find out what forces are united with the 'Right Shadow'?" Gongsun Lie thought for a while and asked the red-haired middle-aged man Luo Jiang standing aside. Is there any Luo Jiang's bodyguard group?
Young Master has already gone to the front line. If you want to ask who is more familiar with the enemy on the front line, then Luo Jiang is obviously the first person among them.
Earl Luo Jiang stood up slowly, and saw him thinking about it again, and then he said hesitantly to Gongsun Lie: "Just now, Luo didn't dare to mention this matter to the vassal king, but now it has reached this situation, Luo
Luo Mou’s guess can no longer be concealed. According to the latest information that has just been transmitted from the front line, there are some old acquaintances among the rebels who attacked Yawang City. If Luo Mou’s subordinates are not mistaken, it is Ba
Liu Hanxin, who serves the Liu family..."
"Liu Hanxin of the Bafu Teliu family!? Could it be that the Bafu Teliu family also participated in this siege!?" Gongsun Lie was shocked when he heard this. He slowly sat back on his bed with his feet shaking.
On the throne, no one said a word. The Bafu Teliu family is an ancient beast soul family with strong strength. If the Bafu Teliu family is also involved, then the situation will become even more unfavorable to their side.
Just thinking about this is enough to give you a headache.
"That's not all." Count Luo Jiang gritted his teeth and continued, "According to the soldiers on the field, Count Bai Xin, Viscount Tian Lin and Viscount Ren Tianlan were also seen in the rebel formation. I'm afraid there are others.
The nobles who have not yet been recognized have also joined the ranks of the rebels. This time, we may not be able to hold on here."
"Nonsense! As long as we stay in the city for a while, it will only be a matter of time before the reinforcements from the Emperor's City wipe out all these traitors. Do you think this is the case?" Gongsun Lie bravely faced the audience.
He shouted loudly, as if trying to gain courage from the voices of the nobles around him.
The surrounding nobles immediately nodded in agreement upon hearing this. Although they all seemed a little lacking in confidence, the purpose of supporting them was still achieved. Just when Gongsun Lie was thinking this, another middle-aged earl with long blond hair shook his head.
But it was like cold water poured on the face of the whole audience: "I'm afraid it will be difficult. News seems to have come from the enemy camp. Now the Emperor's City is under attack. The Emperor's City doesn't know whether it can survive. It has to wait for more support.
It’s impossible. Even if we really wait for support, by that time I’m afraid our Yawang City will have been completely captured.”
"Damn, don't keep saying discouraging words, call Earl Chai Ying to the vassal king quickly! There are many strong men in Earl Chai Ying's bodyguards. I believe that his bodyguards are on the front line to help our morale.
We will go up there soon, and by then we still have a reason to lose?" Gongsun Lie opened his mouth and said quickly, no longer caring about the previous matter of Countess Chai Ying's wife giving birth to a baby. Now is the time for Bafu Special Principality Asia
When the life and death of the royal family is at stake, how can they care about whether Chai Yingying has a baby?
After hearing Gongsun Lie's words, the atmosphere in the audience suddenly became excited. The nobles on the scene all knew that Chai Ying's bodyguards were famous for being good at fighting. Although Chai Ying was only an earl, his bodyguards could fight with a single blow.
Third, even if sending to the front line cannot completely reverse the disadvantage, it can still boost morale!
Gongsun Lie didn't just talk, and quickly sent people to Earl Chai Ying's Mansion. Time passed unknowingly, and not long after, the person hurried back, only to see him panting and looking ugly.
It can be seen that what he brought back was definitely not good news.
"What's wrong? Where is Count Chai Ying?" Gongsun Lie asked quickly with his eyes widened, and the anxiety in his expression was clearly visible.
The messenger opened his mouth and could only reply hesitantly: "Earl Chai Ying... Earl Chai Ying's mansion was empty. Not to mention the members of the personal guards, Count Chai Ying himself, and even the old man sweeping the floor.
No……"
"Not good! Could it be that Earl Chai Ying was killed!?" Gongsun Lie looked solemn and said to himself.
Earl Jiang Luo shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying: "No, I'm afraid that's not the case. If Earl Chai Ying was killed, then there shouldn't be an empty place in Earl Chai Ying's mansion but there should be corpses everywhere. Even if it's not corpses everywhere, there should be some left.
Bloodstains. However, the soldier's words did not mention these two situations. In this case, Earl Chai Ying may have already prepared countermeasures for this situation. Or Earl Chai Ying has already led his bodyguards to leave.
If he enters Yawang City, he is either a member of the rebels..."
"No, it's impossible! Earl Chai Ying's wife is about to give birth, how could he..."
"This can only be based on the fact that Countess Chai Ying is about to give birth!" Count Jiang Luo shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid even the fact that Countess Chai Ying is about to give birth is false.
Yes, at that time Earl Chai Ying was ready to lead the guards and family members to retreat..."
As soon as this statement came out, all the nobles in the room were in an uproar!
