The two girls were chatting quietly, but they heard Xiao Zhiyun groan, and raised her hand to touch her forehead. The coldness could not dissipate, and her tentacles were covered with water stains. Looking up at the initiator, he saw Zhao Yougong and Claire standing close together, smiling evilly towards them. Xiao Zhiyun's face suddenly showed anger, and she no longer acted like a princess, and joined the battle with raised eyebrows, "Claire, I will beat you to death." Claire is not afraid of Zhao Yougong or Sanniang, but she is afraid of Princess Xiao, who is so angry when she sees Xiao Zhiyun She rushed towards her, frightened her face, and hurriedly hid behind Zhao Yougong, and kept pushing the man in front of her, "It's not me, it's him." Zhao Yougong put away his smile, his face became serious, and he took Claire over seriously, " It¡¯s you, Chuo Chuo, beat this hateful woman to death.¡± Of course Xiao Zhiyun knew how thick-skinned Zhao Yougong was, but he didn't take it seriously. The three of them chased each other in the manor, making all the guards dumbfounded. It's so rare that even Princess Xiao shows such a childish side. The Gerginets Manor was full of laughter and laughter, which also showed that the situation in Kiev was very good. It was cold winter weather and there had just been a heavy snowfall. But outside the manor, there were several ragged people waiting anxiously. They The heavy breathing already showed the fear in their hearts. These are several foreigners. They are not Slavs, let alone Orientals. Three men surround a person in the middle who is wrapped in coarse cloth and tattered leather clothes. This is a woman with messy hair and a full face. It was filthy and frostbitten, making it difficult to see the original appearance. The woman stood shivering in the cold wind, looking at the manor in front of her with some horror. In the entire West, there are probably few people who do not know about the Gerginets Manor. Even a serf has heard of the Slavic Holy Land Manor. Being able to come here is already a miracle, and anything more is already a luxury. Her name is Laurel Lance, and she is Sam's sister. When my brother said that he was blessed by Emperor Dongfang, he had 10,000 disbeliefs in his heart. Even now, he still can't believe it. Will Emperor Dongfang really help the declining Lance family? The journey from Mumu Island to Kiev City was difficult. To describe it as a near-death experience is an exaggeration. More than a dozen of my brother¡¯s original followers were all killed on the road. They finally escaped to the Baltic Sea border, and met another man who was active in the deep mountains and old forests. Mountain people. Laurel's only hope now is that the Eastern Emperor still remembers who Sam is, otherwise, she, Laurel, will become a slave of the mountain people. The three mountain warriors surrounding him would definitely not show any mercy. In the manor, Zhao Yougongzheng and Claire teamed up to tease Xiao Zhiyun. The three of them got into a fight. Yang Zaixing walked slowly over with his sword in his arms. As soon as he stepped into the garden, he was hit. When Claire saw that Yang Zaixing had been hit, she stuck out her tongue and ran into the castle without looking back. Zhao Yougong shouted and waved to Yang Zaixing, "Shaolie, you don't stay in the house anymore in the cold weather. Is there anything wrong with you?" "What's the matter?" "Your Highness, there is indeed something. The guard just announced that there are several people outside asking for a meeting. One of them is named Laurel Lance. The general really doesn't remember such a person, so I want to ask His Highness who he is. Still missing? " Yang Zaixing really doesn't know who Laurel is. Even if he is Sam, he may not remember him. To him, Sam is just a small person. There are so many big things to deal with every day. How can he remember this person? Woolen cloth? Zhao Yougong was also slightly dazed. He couldn't think of anything for a while. He could only scratch his forehead and said, "It's really strange, Laurel, who is this?" Seeing Zhao Yougong's reaction, Yang Zaixing decided to call all those people. He was thrown into the prison. At this moment, Sanniang walked over quickly and said, "Shaolie, please slow down first. Your Highness, don't forget, doesn't Sam have a sister? You were the one who sent someone a few days ago. I went to Mu Island with Sam to pick her up. Although I don¡¯t know what happened, the person outside is probably Sam¡¯s sister, so it¡¯s better to meet and find out.¡± Sam? After Sanniang's reminder, Zhao Yougong finally remembered, but Yang Zaixing still had a confused look on his face. Outside the manor, Laurel was still waiting anxiously. As time passed by, the hope in her heart also passed away bit by bit. People like the Eastern Emperor would not remember who Sam was after all. Brother It's really stupid. However, he had already arrived in Kypros. If he could not see the Eastern Emperor, he would not be able to return to Mu Island. The thought of becoming a slave to the mountain people to vent their animal desires from now on made him feel sad. The mountain people are a tribe that is almost isolated from the world. They live the most primitive life, and Laurel cannot live that kind of life. A creaking sound suddenly came, and the door of the manor slowly opened. Laurel saw a group of guards walking over, led by a burly man. Snow-white mink coat, thick hat, yellow skin, black eyes, everything is so different, with a faint smile on his face, which makes people feel very comfortable. Zhao Yougong also had nothing to do. He wanted to go outside and take a look at the scenery, so he followed Yang Zaixing to the avenue outside the manor. As soon as he went out?I saw an embarrassed man looking straight at me. This must be Laurel, he frowned and tried his best to be kind, "Are you Laurel, Sam Lance's sister?" The translator relayed the words, and Laurel looked at him in shock. The man in front of her, she never dreamed that the aloof Eastern Emperor, who only existed in legends, was actually standing in front of her, "You, you are Wuwu", Laurel somehow couldn't control himself, He squatted on the ground and cried with great sadness. Zhao Yougong and Yang Zaixing looked at each other, both confused by Laurel's move. Zhao Yougong winked and motioned for the guards to step forward and help Laurel aside. At the same time, he carefully observed the other three men. He could confirm that these were definitely not the Slavic soldiers he sent out to pick up Laurel. It's really strange, why did these people send Laurel to Kiev? After confirming Laurel's identity, Zhao Yougong handed her into Sanniang's hands. After some questioning, he finally understood the whole story. The journey to Mud Island went smoothly, and Sam did not dare to delay. After staying on Mud Island for two days, he asked a dozen Slavic soldiers to escort Laurel to Kiev. In order to prevent accidents, Sam also rented a boat from the Helena Wine Merchant. Everything went smoothly. However, an accident occurred while passing through Oak Mountain. The escort team was attacked by a mountain tribe. All thirteen Slavic guards were killed. In Oak Mountain, the mountain people saw that Laurel was a woman, so they let her live. Perhaps Laurel was a little quick-witted and said that he was a servant of the Eastern Emperor and could exchange himself for a ransom of 10,000 gold coins. The people in the mountains do not value women too much. They are nothing more than a group of fertile animals. If they can exchange them for 10,000 gold coins, how can they not be tempted? In this way, Laurel came to Kiev with his last hope. After knowing what happened, Zhao Yougong felt a surge of anger in his heart. More than a dozen Slavic warriors escaped from the Danes and the Germans, but finally died in the hands of the mountain people. This was too unfair. It really wasn't right. worth. Xiao Zhiyun was also very angry. Nowadays, the Song Empire was becoming more and more famous in the West. Unexpectedly, more than a dozen elite soldiers died in the hands of a group of savages. The Slavs had just surrendered. If this matter was not explained, I'm afraid the army would The Slavic soldiers in the army will definitely be dissatisfied. As an emperor, how can he win the love of the soldiers if he doesn't even cherish the soldiers under his command? Xiao Zhiyun has never been a kind-hearted person. She sat next to Zhao Yougong and whispered, "The mountain tribes cannot stay. Whether it is to establish prestige or win the hearts of the Slavic soldiers in the army, the mountain tribes must be destroyed, otherwise no one will dare to do so in the future." Let's take a knife on our head." "Chuochuo, it's not that simple. If we directly kill the mountain tribe, how will others treat our people if we encounter something like Laurel in the future? In order to avoid future troubles, All we can do is cut the grass and eradicate the roots." Zhao Yougong also had a headache. It was just a small mountain tribe. It was wiped out as soon as it was said to be wiped out. The problem was the consequences. There are many tribes active in the southeast of the Baltic Sea. After occupying the Baltic Sea in the future, we will inevitably have to deal with these tribes. If the mountain people sent Laurel to Kiev City and started to destroy the mountain tribes, what would the other tribes think? If something like Laurel happens again, they will just wipe out the roots and leave no one alive. At that time, they will not even have a chance to negotiate for redemption. "Let's do this. Give those mountain people 10,000 gold coins and put them back first." Then let Shaolie find Gao Chong, and let Gao Chong lead his men to pretend to be German remnants and wipe out the high mountain tribes for me." Xiao Zhiyun blinked her beautiful eyes, stretched out her hand to push back Zhao Yougong, and said with a smile, " Zhao Ling, are you so wicked? You have to blame the Germans for such a small thing. If Lothair knew the truth, you would be angry to death. " "It would be better to be angry, anyway, the Germans are not good at all. The young stragglers were active near Oak Mountain, and they were definitely taking the blame. After the high mountain tribes were wiped out, and then someone could drive the Germans away directly on the pretext of going into the mountains to kill the German stragglers, Lothair would know the truth. , What can you do to us? If you say something without evidence, it is useless. Don't forget, we gave the mountain tribe 10,000 gold coins, hehe! " Zhao Yougong became vicious, sometimes it is really scary, Xiao Zhiyun felt that this guy had not been so sinister in many years. He wanted 10,000 gold coins to buy the head of a mountain tribe. If you do bad things, you won't give people any excuse. Gao Chong has been so idle lately that he is about to get sick. Yang Zaixing and his men are constantly fighting near the city of Kiev. Even that blind bastard Cao Yuan put down his army and went to the Rogda Hills. This tall general actually stayed in the camp. Look at the scenery. Your Highness is also true. The results of the current restructuring are very good. Those Slavs and Mongolians can also keep up with the training. They can definitely be taken out to practice. No matter how good the training is, the results will not be as fast as in actual combat. After a period of recovery, Zhang Bocheng's injuries were more than half healed. At this time, he was able to sit down and chat with Gao Chong, "General Gao, it's not the last general."Damn, His Highness is really a little petty. Didn¡¯t he cause a big mess? He just left our Seventh Army outside and couldn¡¯t get anything out of it. His Fourth Army also got the task of cooperating with General Shi. We They are almost becoming stepmothers. " Just halfway through speaking, I heard a violent cough outside the door. Not long after, Yang Zaixing walked in with a cold face, "Zhang Bocheng, Yang, you are itchy again. Your Highness, can you criticize me? If Yang hears your nonsense next time, you will be thrown into the jail of the Military Justice Department. Once you get there, you can say whatever you want. " In the Dingguo Army, Yang Zaixing is definitely a first-rate ruthless person, especially the Military Justice Department in charge, which is even more frightening. The General Tang Miaotang in the prison is simply an evil ghost under the hands of the King of Hell. , many military officers walked around the military court and walked out with trembling legs. Unless His Highness spoke up, Gao Chong couldn't help but stare at those who were thrown in. Zhang Bocheng glanced at him and said, this Zhang Bocheng is good at everything, he is the one who speaks freely. Gao Chong and Yang Zaixing have always been good friends, so he quickly pulled Yang Zaixing to sit down, "Shaolie, Mo Gen is so careless, so he just complains." That's all, even if you give him ten courages, he wouldn't dare to actually arrange something for His Highness, right? You, on the other hand, didn't come all this way just to chat with Gao, right? "Brother Gao, His Highness has something to tell you." Yang Zaixing gestured to Gao Chong to come over and whispered a few words with a smile. After a while, Gao Chong smiled and cupped his hands, "Shaolie, thank you for your kindness on behalf of Gao. Gao must have done it perfectly. " Gao Chong is not a fool. It is not difficult to destroy the mountain tribe. Just find any commander to lead the people there. Why should Gao Chong personally take action? In the final analysis, it is still the last turmoil. Although there is harmony on the surface, it can After all, there was still a big gap. Zhao Yougong asked Gao Chong to lead the troops to annihilate the mountain tribes, just to take this opportunity to win over Gao Chong and eliminate the gaps in the army. Gao Chong, the commander of the city, could personally replace more than a dozen Slavic warriors. Revenge falls in the eyes of Slavic soldiers, and the past festivals will disappear immediately, and Gao Chong will be respected by more Slavic soldiers. Zhao Yougong has good intentions, and Gao Chong can naturally understand that the annihilation of the mountain tribes is only a small one. Gao Chong personally took action and not only wiped out the high mountain tribes, but also wiped out most of the many German stragglers who were living here. Of course, Lothair was too busy to pay attention to what happened to the high mountain tribes. Tell the truth? Yelinburg, like Lothair, Fayuna's face was also very ugly. In front of him, stood a man who looked like a beggar. This man was none other than Grana who went to Kiev to negotiate. At this time, Grana looked more like a beggar than a nobleman. Not only was he in tatters, but his beard almost covered his mouth. Naturally, Grana had escaped from Kiev. He didn't dare to walk through the Rogda Hills, so he took a long detour. Nowadays, the territory of Kipros was bitingly frosty and there were bandits everywhere. Granner worked hard for more than ten days before returning to Yelinburg.
