The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

Chapter 429 Count Ani’s plan

After reading the contents of the note, the whole place fell into silence.

After a while, Earl Aini spoke with difficulty: "Tell us what other good ways can be used to curb Xu Lai's development."

"What about Bello? He was also known as the King of the Grasslands. We gave him such detailed information, but he was destroyed single-handedly."

No one could think of any good solution, but some people complained about Bello.

But Parame shook her head and said:

"That can't be said. The specialty of horse thieves is not frontal attack, but constant harassment and robbery.

Bello might have taken the risk just because he heard our information.

I have to say that our information is already out of date. Since Xu Lai left the stronghold, our information about him has never been updated.

If we could have known in advance that he now has such terrifying attributes, with angel troops suppressing the battle, and artifacts like the Doomsday Blade, Bello would not have taken such a risk.

Sometimes, outdated information is more likely to cause mishaps than no information at all. "

As a mage, Parame is relatively sensible.

However, at this moment, no one wanted to hear his rational speech.

Including the owner who asked this question, they actually wanted to find someone who could take the blame for their wrong choices.

"Okay, okay, now that the situation is like this, I need you to provide me with suggestions instead of raising new questions."

As soon as Count Aini said these words, Parame immediately closed his mouth.

"Rodney, commander of my swordsman corps? Do you have any good suggestions?"

Rodney hesitated for a moment and said to Count Aini: "I think that although we are not on good terms with Xu Lai, at least we are not on bad terms with each other.

You are his superior noble, so you naturally have an advantage.

You just need to lower your profile, then Xu Lai still dares to raise troops to rebel against you? "

Aini frowned and said, "Is this useful if I lower my posture?

I have no grievances against those in the Northern Empire. At most, we didn't send troops to rescue them. At that time, weren't we ourselves also under the threat of the stronghold?

But that guy Aled directly reported it to the Noble Council, saying that I had an affair with an orc.

That guy can't fly, how can he communicate with the orcs beyond me? It must have been provided by that guy Xu Lai to Aled.

There is an uproar in the aristocratic circles now that my reputation has been ruined by that boy named Xu, and the temple is also very dissatisfied with me.

Even if I can bear this tone, can the guy named Xu just let him go? "

Rodney also fell silent. He wouldn't let it happen to him anyway.

People have already been offended. If you don't just kill them, why do you want to be secretly bitten again?

Earl Ani sighed and continued to ask questions one by one.

However, except for Rodney, the others simply didn't bother to speak.

They all shook their heads. Even if they were forced to panic, they would just say that they had nothing to do, or someone would simply ask Count Aini to apologize to Xu Lai, and the two sides would regain peace.

Count Ani rolled his eyes and quickly told the guy to shut up.

Looking around, no one could give him any advice. Count Ani said to Parame again:

"Master, do you have any good suggestions?"

Parame sighed and said: "As of now, I don't have any good suggestions.

But now there is an important thing that needs to be done quickly, otherwise it will only increase Xu Lai's strength. "

Count Aini's eyes lit up and he said quickly: "Master, please speak."

“Although horse thieves like to carry gold and silver with them, it is obvious that the real big head is in their lair.

Now that the elite horse thieves have been wiped out by Xu Lai, why don't we take advantage of this opportunity and mobilize our troops to suppress the bandits.

First of all, there have been frequent wars recently and the losses have been huge, so you need a lot of money to replenish it.

Secondly, the common people are taxed extremely high and have been displaced due to the war. After you get this large financial supplement, you can announce the reduction or exemption of winter taxes and even next year's spring taxes.

Thirdly, there are wars all over the empire, and the war here finally ended.

This is the time when you need to recuperate and accumulate strength the most.

This group of horse thieves has been so arrogant recently, causing great losses to the grassland economy.

We just take this opportunity to announce the suppression of bandits, which will not only boost morale, but also greatly revitalize the grassland economy and provide a good business atmosphere. "

After hearing this, Earl Ani's eyes lit up and he immediately nodded and said:

"Yes, yes, these elite horse thieves have been mobilized in large numbers, and now they are likely to fall into a leaderless situation. It is a good time for us to buy the bottom.

Humph, he was so powerful that he killed all those horse thieves in one go, but the biggest benefit had to be taken away by us.

Rodney, Jimmy, I have two of Bello's hiding places here. You two can lead troops there respectively.

Martell, I order you to use all methods to find the hiding place of the other three horse thieves as soon as possible. You must not miss this opportunity.

Master Palame, since Xu Lai is in the caravan, he must have followed the caravan to Kaunaston Castle.

You come with me tomorrow, and we will personally entertain him and congratulate him on his great victory.

You go back and call all the pretty girls at home who can drink. I will make Xu Lai soft. "

Xu Lai didn't know that someone was plotting against him, and he indeed planned to enter the city with the caravan.

So many goods, even valuable gold coin boxes, mithril, fine gold and rare resources, have all been put into the space backpack by Xu Lai.

But the remaining goods are still worth millions of gold coins.

If he doesn't follow, there's no way to rest assured.

Moreover, he also wants to go to Kaunaston Castle to buy the heart of the castle, buy soldiers, buy food, and buy supplies.

Aled sent him 5,500 troops in one breath, and he exchanged so many priests and priests from the temple.

Although Qingfeng City has been developing for a long time, the output of the fields still cannot keep up with the huge number of troops.

In addition, Xu Lai's taxes are not high, so Qingfeng City has long needed to spend money to buy food from the townspeople.

Some grain reserves were also piled up in the warehouse, but Xu Lai was planning a large-scale expansion, so this amount of grain was obviously not enough.

However, Su Ya didn't want Xu Lai to enter the city. The reason was very simple. The horse thief had been eliminated, and the person he was about to go was Count Aini, who had betrayed him.

The noble council said that the evidence was only one-sided testimony and could not be accurate.

Therefore, the noble council did not directly pronounce the verdict, but planned to send people to investigate secretly.

But Xu Lai and Su Ya knew that Count Aini was a betrayer and someone who wanted Xu Lai to die.

Xu Lai didn't have any guards around him yet, so Erwei followed those horse thieves for half the night, but it was not without gain.

Those horse thieves may have been too panicked and instinctively ran to their hometown.

In addition, it was already dark at that time, and Elvi and others were flying high in the sky and were not discovered by these horse thieves.

Therefore, following these horse thieves, Elvi found several horse thieves' hiding places and a horse thieves' lair.

In order to avoid long nights and many dreams, especially the horse thieves' den that was discovered.

Taking advantage of the fact that the opponent's morale was low and there were not many men and horses, Xu Lai planned to ask Elvi and others to raid the horse thieves' lair overnight.

Xu Lai is not a fool. He must know that there are more treasures and supplies in the horse thief's lair.

He asked Elvi and others to raid overnight, not because he was afraid of being preempted by Count Ani's people, but because he was afraid that the horse thieves in the lair would fight among themselves and escape.

Xu Lai doesn't have any troops at the moment. It's not impossible to call out his own cavalry, but then there will be no one to guard the house.

Dill went to Mingyue City, so Xu Lai could only ask Tahan to help guard Qingfeng City.

After all, he is the only level 9 knight. Even without the attribute bonus of the hero, the fearless aura with a coverage of up to 5 kilometers, and the leader characteristics can make the troops he leads more powerful than ordinary troops.

Even after dispatching the only guard, Su Ya refused to let Xu Lai enter the city. Even if Xu Lai believed that with his physical defense and spell resistance, no one should be able to kill him instantly.

But he won't be killed instantly. As long as Xu Lai enters the city, Count Aini can completely seal Kaunaston Castle with an order.

When the time comes, grinding can grind Xu Lai to death. Even if Xu Lai has a golden body or magic immunity potion, as long as he cannot fly out, he will be grinded to death.

Sellon can teleport, so after being imprisoned by the shackles of war, he won't be able to survive.

Xu Lai didn't quite believe that Aini dared to do it openly and seal off the entire Kaunaston Castle. The scope of influence would be huge, and it would be impossible to hide it.

Once the news spread, Aini publicly beat his subordinate nobles, and he had just made great contributions to mankind.

Aini can never escape the crime of treason, or even racial treason.

But Su Ya said that you can't gamble with other people's concerns with your own safety.

Even if Ren Aini wants to be buried with Xu Lai, it means nothing to Su Ya and the others.

What's more, as long as Xu Lai is killed, Count Aini can always find a way to evade responsibility.

Even if he can't escape, Xu Lai explodes in all his divine armor, and it's not certain who will call the shots in the empire in the future.

When Xu Lai thought about it, it made sense. He simply refused to let Su Ya in, and simply asked Su Ya to go back and continue to help defend the city.

Then ask Su Ya to notify Yan Feng, Joseph, Ed and others to send troops to respond to him.

He followed Elvi and the others, taking care of each other, and first went to raid a horse thieves camp.

As for the task of going to the city to buy and sell goods, Xu Lai did not leave it to Wei Yihong, but to Giselle, whom he trusted most.

Giselle, like Yu Lan, are the people Xu Lai trusts the most.

The only difference is that he hasn't carried this elf to his bed yet, not because he doesn't want to, but because he doesn't have a good chance yet.

After a super experience book, Giselle successfully advanced from a seventh-level phantom marksman to an eighth-level phantom archer.

This Phantom Arrow Saint is so powerful that in the forest area, no matter the invincible Holy Light Knight, or Tahan, the only fearless knight, is no match for her.

The most important thing is that after using the super experience book, Giselle can still absorb experience points.

What this means, Xu Lai knows very well, it means that Giselle has level 9 potential. (End of chapter)
