The center commander, Will, was sitting in the main seat, his voice was low, the pupils in his eyes were dilated, and he was looking at the information on the table in front of him blankly.
The laughter of the soldiers outside the tent collided with his cold heart at this time, making Will's body and mind become colder and colder, but his mind became more and more angry.
"I don't care how much you pay, I just want to see the murderer's head."
Will's cold eyes glanced around, causing all the priests to bend their waists a few more inches.
"Yes, Lord High Priest..."
Just as the priests were about to disperse, Will's voice came again, "It's up to you to receive the envoys from Fengbei City. Tell them that if they want to surrender, let their city lord come over..."
"yes…"
This time they really left, and Will was left alone in the tent, feeling regretful under the candlelight...
Late at night, after the carnival, the soldiers returned to their respective residences. At the same time, groups of soldiers boarded the purple-crowned sea eagle and flew towards the Zhubei Mountains. A giant beast suitable for mountain warfare was driven by the sacrifice to climb the cliff and enter.
In the mountains.
However, Qin Feng and others did not return to the foot of the mountain, but went to the Magic Pearl Town in the mountains. Due to the war, the magic beads there had not been transported away yet, so they could buy all the magic beads there.
As for the magic crystal mine, the guards and workers there have been transferred, and Qin Feng is not planning to go there.
...Hmm... The cliff platform, Magic Pearl Town, and the magic crystal mineral vein are exactly a triangle. Why don't they build an elevator on the cliff platform and then open up the road? This can shorten the transportation cost... Qin Feng is walking on the mountain road
Thinking boredly.
…Zhubei City has fallen, so what countermeasures does Fengbei City have? …Should we contact them and jointly launch a pincer attack on Qunyuzhou Island?…The success rate should be very high…Qin Feng thought about it all the way,
I think this idea is feasible, but I don't know how to do it in Fengbei City.
"Captain, the Magic Pearl Town has arrived..."
The cry of Rat Man White Fang pulled Qin Feng out of his thoughts. He looked up and saw the Magic Pearl Town, which was as bright as a star in the night.
In Magic Pearl Town, every household places dozens of magic pearls on their roofs and eaves, until the entire street or even the entire town becomes beautiful.
"Stop, who is it?"
The soldiers' scoldings came from the stone city wall, which forced Qin Feng and others to stop.
I saw rows of soldiers standing on the city wall with their bows and arrows drawn, aiming downwards.
At Qin Feng's signal, a general guard stepped forward and shouted: "We are from the Tenglong Kingdom, and we are here to support Zhubei City..."
"Zhubei City is over there, you are in the wrong place..." The soldier pointed behind Qin Feng and others.
"But Zhubei City has fallen. We want to rest here and leave tomorrow..." the general replied immediately.
"What? Zhubei City has fallen?" The soldier murmured a few words, and then shouted, "You guys wait here, I will call the mayor..."
After saying that, the soldier disappeared on the city wall.
Qin Feng and others had no choice but to stay where they were and wait. Qin Feng, who was bored, began to observe the soldiers on the city wall and found that they were old, young, and even women pretending to be women. This made Qin Feng suddenly realize.
...Have all the troops in the town been sent to Zhubei City? So there is not much military strength now, so other personnel can only be used to pretend?...It's really interesting, but pretending is useless. There is only one soldier from Qunyuzhou Island.
I can defeat you all with a charge... Qin Feng smiled silently and looked away unobtrusively.
Not long after, the soldier ran up and shouted to Qin Feng and others: "Martial law is now in the town, please go elsewhere..."
"Believe it or not, we will fight in now, let us in quickly..."
White Fang, the rat man, became angry when he heard this. If he stayed out overnight, the governor would definitely let him dig a hole. So many people would definitely tire him to death. Finally, there was a human town, and he would go in no matter what.
"Then let's try calling. Our people in Magic Pearl Town are not easy to bully..." The soldier also had a hot temper and wanted to start a fight with Qin Feng and others if they disagreed.
All the generals and guards and the Ming Dynasty's archery battalion raised their spears and drew their bows. The battle was about to begin.
When the atmosphere condensed to a certain level, sweat dripped from the faces of the townspeople, and their strength to draw the bows was disappearing little by little.
At this moment, a short and fat man ran up to the city wall and kept shouting, "Everyone stop, everyone stop..."
All the townspeople put down their weapons when they saw the coming person.
The soldier who was talking ran over quickly, "Mayor, why are you here?"
"If I don't come, are you going to start a war with others?" the mayor yelled out.
"Our soldiers have all been transferred away. Do we have any soldiers who can stop them? Just try to give them whatever they want. We really can't afford any more deaths in our town..."
As he spoke, the mayor couldn't help wiping away tears. One of his sons was also sent to Zhubei City. However, looking at the situation, the hope of returning is extremely slim.
"This... they want to live in the town, and we don't know if they are friends or foes. Maybe they are soldiers from Qunyuzhou Island pretending to be them." The soldier hesitated while rubbing the back of his head.
The mayor was also a little worried. He looked at Qin Feng and others again and found that they had withdrawn their weapons and were observing them patiently.
"They shouldn't be from Qunyuzhou Island, otherwise they would come in now and talk nonsense to you for a long time?" the pudgy mayor scolded the soldiers.
So the mayor stuck his head out and shouted: "Everyone, we will open the door right now, don't be in a hurry..."
The city gate creaked and opened with the expectant voice of Rat Man White Fang.
"Let's go in..." White Fang greeted, and ran in first. He thought happily that he finally didn't need to drill holes by himself.
Qin Feng didn't say a word during this process. He didn't think it was necessary. As a weak town party, if they didn't recognize the situation clearly, he felt that they wouldn't be able to survive in the future.
A strong person must also have the awareness of a strong person. If you don't bully others, others may think that you are strong on the outside and weak on the inside, and may even bully you in turn.
"Everyone, everyone, I am the mayor here. If you have any requests, just tell me. As long as you don't harm the civilians here, I will definitely satisfy you..."
When you come to the city gate, you can see the short and fat mayor who is smiling, nodding and bending.
"Oh, really? Can you find me a female rat-man?" Upon hearing this, rat-man White Fang immediately looked at him expectantly.
White Fang was surrounded by soldiers from the Ming Dynasty, and they all spoke directly and truthfully, so he thought that what the mayor just said was also true, so he immediately came over to ask.
"This?" The mayor was a little dumbfounded, thinking, I just made an analogy, how can I meet all your requirements, how come you, a mouse, can't understand human language?
"There are no rat people in this mountain, but there are rats. I can ask the civilians to catch a nest for you. Would you like that?"
The rat man White Fang put away his expectant eyes, showing human contempt, then stood up straight, looked down at him, and pushed the long spear in his hand to the ground, "If you say no, forget it, you
What do you mean by a mouse? Am I a mouse? Huh?"
The last loud sound also attracted Qin Feng's eyes.
"What's going on?" Qin Feng happened to come over and looked at one person and one mouse curiously.
Qin Feng understood White Fang's temper. As long as he talked to it properly and didn't play tricks or deceive it, it would be easy to get along with. But just now Qin Feng heard angry emotions from its words.
"Commander, whatever he just said will satisfy us, I just want a female rat man, but he wants to find me a nest of rats. I think he is a bad person, we should kill him..." After that, the rat man Bai
The tooth opened its big mouth, revealing its several-inch-long fangs, and the threat was quite obvious.
The difference between rat people and mice is the difference between humans and monkeys. The mayor thought that since both had the word rat, they must be similar, but he didn't realize that there was a huge difference, which completely offended the rat man White Fang.
"Don't...don't...eat me..."
Seeing the mayor covering his head and about to crawl to the ground, Qin Feng slapped Rat Man White Fang on the shoulder in a funny way, "You go ahead, I'll handle it."
"Yes, Governor..."
Before leaving, Rat Man White Fang glared at him, as if to warn him not to mess around.
Seeing that the tall rat man White Fang had left, the mayor dared to stand up slowly.
Before the fear on his face dissipated, Qin Feng's indifferent voice came, "We need some housing for us to rest, and we also need all your magic beads."
"All the magic beads?" the mayor muttered.
"Yes, everything... we will exchange it with gold coins, according to the market price..."
Seeing Qin Feng turn around and leave without hesitation, the mayor couldn't figure out why he wanted all the magic beads. That thing was not very useful. Apart from being able to shine, it was similar to a broken crystal core, but the price was indeed
It's several times higher, mainly because things are rarer and more expensive.
However, the mayor is eager to have such a good business. There are many magic beads produced every year, but not many can be sold. Most of them are rich businessmen and nobles. In recent years, the war has led to the decrease of big businessmen.
, the pockets of the nobles have also been emptied, so there are still a lot of magic beads in the town, so many that it turns the town into daylight.
The mayor felt happy and a smile naturally appeared on his face.
"My lords, the empty house is over there, I will show you the way..."
After a good night's rest, Qin Feng had a good sleep comfortably in a larger two-story wooden house. When the sun's rays hit his eyes, he stretched out and turned on the warmth.
Get up from bed and wash up.
Looking out of the window from the second floor, the generals and guards had already carried a box of gold coins and were buying the magic beads from the townspeople. Another box they had was filled with milky white magic beads. It seemed that they were already busy.
short time.
Qin Feng has always had the idea of trading in peaceful towns that can be traded, but if it is confirmed that they are hostile, then they still have to plunder, and he is not a true philanthropist.
"Captain...good morning..."
After washing up, a light mirror appeared in front of Qin Feng, and the spy Zhang Ming began his daily routine report, which allowed Qin Feng to always keep abreast of the trends in the territory and battlefield.
"Good morning, do you have any important information?" Qin Feng casually sat on the only chair in the room, holding up the tea and sipping it in small sips.
