Last Totem Novel - Chapter 602
Chapter 602 Bullying
After some bargaining, Tie Zha finally borrowed 20,000 well-equipped Serpent warriors and a mecha brigade for three million gold coins. Of course, this three million wasn’t hire money, but the support money that the Glorious Snake Clan had donated to the Spirit Snake Clan.
“Should I remit the bill to you now?” Tie Zha asked.
“There’s no hurry. Although it’s a rapist and murderer, I still believe in Lord Tie Zha’s credibility.” Said Bi Qinglan.
‘”Uh” Tie Zha was enraged by her words of “rapist and murderer”, but for the sake of a longer-term goal, she had no choice but to endure it.
“How about this, after the war is over, you …” Bi Qinglan said slowly. “Send it over personally.”
“There’s no need, right? How convenient is bank transfer?” Tie Zha rubbed his forehead and said in a somewhat embarrassed tone.
“As a core member of the Glorious Bloodline, it shouldn’t be too much for me to ask you to come over and offer sacrifices to the Spirit Serpent Warriors who participated in the Glorious Battle, right?” Bi Qinglan asked indifferently.
Since righteousness was at the forefront, Tie Zha really couldn’t refuse, so he could only agree.
‘”Hmph, coward ~” Bi Qinglan said with a look of disgust. “If the ancestors of Northas knew that their descendants had not only committed rape and murder, they were also extremely cowardly. Even women were afraid. I wonder if they would crawl out of their graves in anger.”
“Friend, please forgive me. Don’t go too far.” Tie Zha frowned and said.
“Aiyaya ~” Bi Qinglan raised her head, revealing a snow-white neck with a mocking gaze. “I was right about the pain. I’m unhappy ~”
“Bi Qinglan!” Tie Zha shouted angrily, “Don’t think I can only beg you!”
“Stop talking. I’m going to take a bath.” Bi Qinglan said casually, then cut off the communication, leaving behind Tie Zha who wanted to smash the communicator.
Not long after the end of the communication, Bi Tianye sent a voice message saying that the troops had already started to get ready. They were expected to set off in three hours at a speed of 50 kilometers per hour and arrive in about 75 hours.
The reason why Bi Qinglan agreed to transfer troops to Tie Zha was only secondary to the three million support money. The most important thing was that she and You Ge were a community of interests, both prosperous and disadvantaged. It was in their core interests to suppress the Heavenly Choosers of the Blackwing Family. Otherwise, no matter how much money the iron slag gave, it wouldn’t be able to get her help.
From You Ge and the Heavenly Choosers, it is easy to analyze a clear vein. Just how did the upper echelons of Silver City divide factions and compete?
Inside the temple, the council of elders, which was composed of the core members of the nobles, was neutral from beginning to end, supporting both the princess of the temple and the chosen one. On the surface, You Ge was the marshal of the Dawn Expeditionary Army, but in reality, she did not have absolute control. Especially when there was a conflict of interest with the other Chosen One, she could only rely on the people she promoted and planted, such as Eva, Hildebrand, Song Haohe, Benjamin, and the others.
From this, it could be seen that apart from our own clan, neither side was able to obtain the additional support of other nobles. They could only nurture their own guilds or factions.
After becoming the Temple Princess, You Ge quickly recruited Mu Yu, Ling Lan and Bi Qinglan as his core supporters. Especially for Bi Qinglan, she had invested a lot of money and connections to help her gain the leadership of the Far East Serpent Race. In terms of power A alone, the investment was over 15 million gold coins, and the rest of the equipment, supplies, and social relations were innumerable.
Of course, this also included the needs of the mainstream world for splitting the Far East, and the facilities and assistance provided for this purpose. For example, the World Council had forcefully squeezed out several strongholds of the Snake Race in the No 5 Desert, several oilfields in the Mirror Sea Plane, and the Silencer Stronghold in the bottomless abyss. In the eyes of the mainstream world, the successful disintegration of the Ancient Temple System could be said to be You Ge’s first thousand years of merit.
The more external forces competitors unite with, the closer they are to the Pope. The reason for that was because the upper echelons of Silver City’s world were a whole, only possessing one-sided prestige was not enough to become leaders.
For example, Youge’s grandfather, Saint Augustman Modleton, won the approval of the Presbyterian Church, several priests from Notre Dame and members of the World Council to ascend to the papal throne. On the other hand, if the upper echelons and other organizations were incompatible with each other, it would lead to endless disputes.
Three Silver City days, one Scarlett day later, Hildebrand left the Aurora Plane. An expeditionary squadron leader came to replace him and became the supreme commander of theater 62.
At the same time, an army of more than ten thousand troops entered theatre 62. They were well-equipped and well-equipped, with mecha, vehicles and airships. Notting and Matthew had sent people from the family legion to form a temporary team. The purpose was to force the Alliance Army to hand over their merits and compensate the Thunderbird Legion for their losses. To put it bluntly, it was an open robbery.
A man who claimed to be the leader of the Thunderbird Legion received a video from the four-sided coalition command and issued an ultimatum: “Surrender immediately, or you will be killed.”
“Oh.” Mu Qianhe replied indifferently, and then cut off the communication.
A few hours later, the legion crossed the river and advanced towards Heights 621. However, when the reconnaissance company brought back the information, the black-winged officer in charge of the command was stunned on the spot. The five to six thousand people in the intel had turned into a barracks that stretched for several kilometers, with a scale of nearly forty thousand people.
Not only were they four times their numbers, but their equipment was no worse than theirs. They had everything they needed. They were the private armies of the nobles, and their equipment was definitely better than the ground garrison. However, their opponent’s Harley Company logo truly made them feel a little fearful.
From this, it wasn’t hard to tell that the other party was also a private army of nobles. However, it wasn’t clear what kind of power they belonged to for the time being.
The black-winged officer immediately reported the discovery to Notting and Matthew. The two Chosen One were having dinner together. Hearing this news, the food instantly became difficult to swallow and the red wine became bitter.
The plan was disrupted. The two of them looked at each other for a long time with worried faces. Finally, they both sighed and ordered the troops to retreat.
The opponent was too big, if he insisted on fighting, the commotion would be very big. It was a time of war, so it didn’t matter if they fought a little, but if they fought, it would be a crime of disrupting the internal order of humanity and betraying the clan.
No wonder Eva suddenly made concessions. It turned out that the opponent’s strength was so tyrannical. It was estimated that if they really wanted to bring over 60,000 troops, they would be able to turn into 80,000 people, or even more. Faced with such a situation, they could only give up temporarily. However, they also began to have a strong interest in this mysterious Black Wolf Mercenary Corps.
In this world, there were many forces that dared to fight against great nobles, but all of them were powerful figures on one side. It was indeed rare for nameless people to do so.
At this moment, in the command tent of the Six Directions Alliance Army, a girl with a pure and gentle appearance and a gentle and dignified temperament was standing beside Tie Zha with a thick black book in her arms, giving him military advice. She wore a green cheongsam with a nine-tailed golden phoenix embroidered on it. She was spreading her wings and spreading her phoenix tails along the hem of the cheongsam dress. She was extremely gorgeous.
This green cheongsam was named “Jade Green Robe” by the Sun Snake Sect and was the standard dress of the Bi Qinglan Guards. From the phoenix embroidery, she was one of the Twelve Holy Daughters of the Heavenly Word Generation, the Six-tailed Golden Phoenix of the Sky Word Generation, the Golden Peacock of the Water Word Generation, Xiao, Xiao, Xiao, and the Three Golden Flying Birds of the Shui Word Generation.
This Snake Clan’s Holy Maiden was called Bi Tianqing. She was the secretary general of the Snake Clan’s Ministry of Internal Affairs, and Bi Qinglan had sent a staff officer to assist Tie Zha. To put it nicely, she was here to help. To put it nicely, it was because Bi Qinglan did not have confidence in Tie Zha’s tactical accomplishments and did not dare to hand over the Serpent army to him.
As for Tie Zha, he just happened to lack tactical talents, so he was happy to accept it. This Bi Tianqing’s personality was different from the other replicas of Bi Qinglan. She was gentle and obedient, and she was very comfortable to get along with.
“Sir Tie Zha, Tianqing thinks that we should now spread out to the two wings, with the highlands as the center. We should prepare our defenses and work together, waiting for the arrival of the great battle, in order to attack once and earn a full pot of money.” Bi Tianqing said.
“If we go north now and attract the demon army, our situation will become very passive. If we fight head-on, it will be easy for the people behind us to take advantage of us. Retreating will affect our morale and cause unnecessary casualties.”
“Judging from the current situation, humans and demons will agree on a place to engage in an all-out battle within two weeks at the latest.”
“Sir Tie Zha” Bi Tianqing blinked at Tie Zha who was in a daze and asked, “You mean …”
“Mm” Tie Zha regained his senses and nodded pretentiously. Actually, he didn’t listen to a single word. He was just thinking about the consequences of pushing Bi Tianqing down.
Ever since he tried Bi Tianye’s taste and became stronger than Bi Shuanlan, his desire for Bi Qinglan and her clones had increased day by day. Especially a few days ago, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He was suffocating in his chest and had nowhere to vent his anger.
“Lord Tie Zha, think about it first. I’ll cut some fruit for you.” Bi Tianqing said obediently, then nodded and left. The moment she turned around, a trace of viciousness flashed in her eyes. Obviously, she did not have a good impression of this “Lord Iron Slag”. Bi Qinglan’s three thousand replicas had very different personalities, but their sinisterness and viciousness were common.
“Wait …” Tie Zha stopped her. “Are you saying that we should defend on the spot?”
“Yes … Ah!” Bi Tianqing turned around and came back, but she didn’t expect that Tie Zha would hug her, press her on the sofa, and forcefully kiss her.
“Mm … Mm …” She patted Tie Zha on the shoulder but was still salivated.
“Ahhh!” Immediately after, waves of intense pain came from his abdomen. She clutched the sofa tightly, tears streaming down her eyes, and the pain was so intense that she almost went mad.
“Be honest in the future.” Tie Zha warned. Although he didn’t dare to force Bi Tianqing, he could still bully her.
