Irene nodded slightly, and Rajer left after bowing.
Standing on the empty corridor, Erin looked at Rajel's retreating back.
Under the mask, her face frowned.
"Is it an illusion?" Eileen murmured in a low voice.
Before Raj's arrival, she had a feeling of being spied on.Her ability itself is related to perception, and her sensory organs are quite sharp.
However, the feeling of being spied on only lasted for a moment, and disappeared the next moment.Only then did Eileen wonder if the previous induction was an illusion.
Erin shook her head. She no longer thought about this matter, but still chewed on what Rajer had just told her about Xi'an.
"The Forbidden Land...Rome..."
After a while, Irene raised her head and looked at the purple moon in the sky.
..............
A middle-aged woman slowly walked out of the shadows of the corridor on the other side.Women are ordinary in appearance, from appearance to figure.The clothes on his body also represent the lowest slave status.
But it was this slave woman whose eyes were as deep as thick shadows.
"Crow hunter, Erin... hunter of the Healing Church..."
"Did Yanan also intervene in this matter?"
The woman closed her eyes, immersed herself in the depths of her thoughts and memories, and connected with many 'selves'.
There is a part of herself hidden in Qiao Ya.
Bai Mang quickly opened her eyes. She had obtained the hunter's information.
However, contrary to her guess, the crow hunter seemed to be driven out by Yanan, rather than being sent by Yanan on his own initiative.
Apart from this, there is not enough information about this hunter.The only thing that is certain is that this hunter is very powerful.
"Yanan..." Bai Mang said the name in a low voice with an expressionless face.
There is a strict blockade in Yanan, and to this day, the intelligence network cannot be deployed - it is impossible to break through with one-ninth of the strength of the personality clone.Unless you devote all of yourself to obtaining information about Yanan.
Chapter 117 The Feast of Divide
Like the ancient Rome, Yharnam was not a native civilization bred in this bay land, but an outsider who migrated from that continent.
Being able to forcibly grab a piece of land in the Three Stone City is enough to show its strength.
Bai Mang knew that his master was cautious about this healing city, at least much more cautious than Tandan and Qiao Ya.
Bai Mang shook her head and stopped thinking about Yanan for the time being.
Yanam is a closed city-state with very little communication with the outside world. As long as it does not interfere with the current war between Humanity, Tandan and Qiaoya, it will be easy to handle.
The focus of the mission that Baimao is currently shouldering is still on this bloodstone city.
The internal situation in Tandan is different from that in Xi'an, and the slaves here are more docile.This may be related to the ideological trend of its city-state.
Xi'an was relatively martial and raised a group of fighter slaves to watch the fighters fight as an entertainment activity.Tan Dan prefers sensual entertainment. There is no arena here, instead there are various theaters.
Since ancient times, the subjects of uprisings have been farmers or slaves.But among them, there must be soldiers with combat experience, as well as lower-level intellectuals.
Mere slaves and peasants could never organize an uprising of sufficient magnitude.
Xian has such conditions. Gurnis and Ymir are representatives of warriors and intellectuals respectively.
But Tandan didn't.
At least, during the months when Baimai was lurking in Tandan, no insurgents with sufficient qualifications were found.
Even if Baimao acted as such an insurrectionist, it would be extremely difficult to inspire the slaves in Tandan City to resist.
However, the good thing is that what happened in Xi'an, which Baimeng spread in Tandan, and that the slaves in Xi'an were liberated and became free people, has a good response among the lower-class slaves in Tandan.At least, when Humanity captures Tandan, the slaves will definitely respond.
In the final analysis, Tandan and Qiaoya must be defeated head-on by force, shattering the dream that this group of slave-owning aristocrats has maintained for hundreds of years.
Thinking of this, his stiff expression loosened and became humble and respectful.In front of her position, a blond girl was walking towards here under the moonlight.
Bai Mang greeted her. She was currently acting as a slave in the palace of the Lord of Tandan City.
"Lord Rajer, I'm sorry, I still haven't found your things after searching around."
"It's okay, Enid."
She was a little uncomfortable chatting with Master Erin from Qiaoya, a somewhat eccentric person, but overall, Rajer was still in a very happy mood after the things she accidentally lost were found.
Rajel has a very good memory, and most people can remember his name and appearance as long as they meet him once.Just like Enid, who became a slave in the city lord's mansion a few months ago.
"Thank you, Enid, for asking you to help me find something so late. But the thing I accidentally lost has been found."
A look of panic appeared on Enid's face: "Lord Rajer, please don't say that... This is what I should have done."
"Besides, I haven't been of much help. However, it would be great to find your things."
Bai Mian is a master of disguise, and the Enid she plays now is exactly what Tandan is now a slave to.
Looking at Rajer, in addition to feeling ashamed, there was also some longing.
As a Tandan noble, the class that rules the slaves, Rajel is an anomaly among them.Unlike other nobles and free people, Rajel gave equal respect to the slaves.
It is precisely because of this that Rajel enjoys a good reputation among Tandan's slaves.
Baimai's groveling look also touched Rajer a little.
Rajel's smile faded, and she suddenly remembered the group of former slaves she had seen in Xi'an.
"Enid, do you know Xi'an?" Rajer asked mysteriously.
"Xian..."
Bai Mang paused for a moment, and then spoke cautiously: "I heard that there was a drastic change in Xi'an... People from the Forbidden Land entered Xi'an, and then... there seemed to be a slave riot there. "
"Now, the masters of Tandan and Qiaoya are preparing to conquer Xi'an."
"That's right..."
Rajer smiled bitterly, but there were some words that he couldn't say, and finally turned into a sigh.
She sympathized with the slaves. After entering Xi'an and seeing what it looked like, she was not as hostile as her grandfather. Instead, she felt that the city-state was particularly alive now.
But Tandan and Qiaoya decided to conquer Xi'an, and Rajer didn't feel anything was wrong.She could understand the thoughts of her grandfather and the nobles in the city.
Her nature determines her kindness, but her class determines her stance.
She knew that her calm kindness was cultivated by power, status and wealth, and these things were obtained by squeezing slaves.
After sighing, the girl finally said goodbye to Bai Mang and left the city lord's palace with a lot of thoughts.
Bai Mang's eyes also merged into the shadows after staring at the girl's leaving back for a moment.
...........
A few days passed quickly, and the baggage required for the march to conquer Xi'an was already prepared.
The day before the army set off, Tandan held a dinner to see off the warriors who were going on the expedition.
These warriors who were entertained did not include the Unsullied from the two city-states.The essence of the Unsullied is that of slaves, the blades in the hands of slave masters.
The so-called warriors are the Silver Shield mercenary group recruited by Tan Dan.
There are 500 people in the Silver Shield Mercenary Group, most of whom are cavalry.
As a recruited army, the Silver Shield Mercenary Group does not require any expenditure other than food like the Unsullied.They need salaries, especially in a state of war, and the salaries paid by Tandan will be doubled.
Even if this money and food were placed in Tandan, which was relatively wealthy in the Three Stone City, it would be a big expense, which made the Lord of Tandan feel heartbroken.
Still, it's all worth it.
The group of barbarians who came out from behind the Forbidden Land gained a lot of wealth after seeking Xi'an.
The amount of wealth can be roughly estimated from the mouths of the Xi'an nobles who fled.Xi'an's wealth accumulated over hundreds of years can even make the kings on the continent jealous.
If the Tandan Joya coalition recovers Xi'an, they will naturally have the right to reap rewards.
Whatever you can get from plundering Xi'an will be considered as the reward for the coalition's help to the Xi'an nobles. These are all discussed with the old Xi'an nobles who live in Tandan and Qiaoya.
Moreover, compared to Qiao Ya, Tandan, who organized this alliance, can receive a higher proportion of remuneration.
Chapter 118 Allied Forces
Everyone who attended the pre-departure dinner was very happy.
The mercenaries of the Silver Shield Mercenary Group enjoyed the service of Tandan's beautiful slave girl, drinking mellow wine and chewing delicious meat.
The tension before the war was washed away by this atmosphere, replaced by excitement.
The mercenaries were promised by Tandan's city lord that as long as they could defeat Xi'an's army and conquer that city-state, they would be allowed to plunder, and they would also be rewarded with land and even titles depending on their military merits.
The aristocratic system in Slaver's Bay is not recognized by the mainland, but there is a saying that it is better to be the head of a chicken than the queen of an ox.
Not to mention the civilian background, how difficult it is for a mercenary who is regarded as a dirty profession to obtain the title of the mainland kingdom and empire.Even if the title of the Three Stone City is not recognized, the various noble privileges are real.Obtain land, build a manor, and enslave slaves. Such a life is not much worse than that of the small lords on the mainland.
The city lord of Tandan and Pakom, the representative of Qiao Ya, were also drinking.
After all, the wealth plundered by the mercenaries was only a small part, and the real bulk belonged to them.
And the old nobles of Xi'an were also very happy and excited.
Even if the coalition's purpose this time is to capture Xi'an and take away their original wealth as reward, at least they can regain possession of the White Stone City and regain control of those rebellious slaves.
Slaves are like sesame seeds. As long as you squeeze them diligently, you can always squeeze out the oil.
As long as the authority can be regained, wealth can be accumulated again.
Moreover, compared to the fact that their wealth fell into the hands of that tyrant and that group of madmen, being acquired by Tandan and Qiaoya nobles, who were also noble people, would at least make these old Xi'an nobles feel better psychologically. .
Of course, these real benefits would not be mentioned on the table among nobles who regard reserve as a virtue.
What is really on the table is that the purpose of this coalition is for 'justice'.
"The lowly slaves thrived because of the support of that group of barbarians. This is undoubtedly the darkest episode in the history of the Three Stone City. This conquest is precisely to drive away evil and implement justice."
The Qiaoya nobleman Kom said, and his words immediately received responses from many nobles present.
Especially the Xi'an nobles who were driven here, they clamored loudly for revenge on Rome, and wanted to capture the lord named Kazama and demote him to the lowest slave.
This atmosphere spreads from the top to the bottom.
There were only two people at the banquet who were not affected by such an atmosphere and remained relatively calm and composed.
One is a bald man with a somewhat bloated figure. He is the leader of the Silver Shield Mercenary Group, Pusaiah.
There is no one in the two city-states of Tandan and Qiaoya who can command the army, so he will be the commander-in-chief of this conquest war.
As a warrior who has been baptized twice, his body and mind are far superior to ordinary people.Before the war, it was naturally not so easy to indulge.
The other one is Qiao Ya’s Master Irene, who is sitting quietly in her seat.The raven mask blocked her expression so no one could see her.
She was observing everything at the party like an outsider.
..............
The day after the banquet ended, this day was the day when the Tandanjoya coalition officially set off to march towards Xi'an.
The indulgent atmosphere of yesterday finally dissipated, and the tension before the war once again enveloped the troops on the expedition.
It's just that tension is still a minority. Unsullied people don't have their own thoughts and won't be nervous.For the mercenaries of the Silver Shield Mercenary Group, fighting is a common occurrence, and they are almost used to life and death.
I am more excited and excited, thinking about what I can gain after winning this war.
Before the army moved out, at the request of the Lord of Tandan, the army made a special circle around Tandan.
After Xian's former city lord Raph launched the Unsullied Legion to conquer the outside world, a slave riot broke out in Xian.
Tandan learned this lesson. Even if he sent out most of his troops, he still had a small force in the city that was enough to suppress the slave uprising.
As for the army's circle around Tandan, it was also to show its strong military power and prevent any bad thoughts from arising among the slaves.
After such operations, it was already close to noon when the army actually set off.
Pusaiya, the leader of the Silver Shield Mercenary Group, planned to march to the flat area ten miles away from Xi'an City before evening and set up camp.
Long before preparing for the war, Tandan had already sent people to survey the marching route and draw a map.As long as the army marches according to plan.
Since the coalition force consisted of the Unsullied heavy infantry as the main body, and there were some delays in the morning, Pusiah was worried that he would not be able to reach the designated location and set up camp before evening.
