Chapter 107: New Challenges
The Golden Horn, Yu Deen has read some records about it, and it is clear that the Golden Horn is a magical artifact that the former Shahai Kingdom has adapted to the battlefield.
The role of the Golden Horn in which the combat effectiveness of its own army on a large scale once attracted Yu Deen, and for this reason he specially sent a large number of troops to Shibasha City.
On the surface, Yu Deen's army went to encircle and suppress the sand thieves in Shibasha City, but in fact, it was to occupy the cities where the former Shahai Kingdom royal family finally fled.
As long as he occupied these cities, not to mention that Yu Deen's territory could be expanded by more than ten times, he could also secretly search for the treasures of the former Shahai Kingdom royal family, which of course included the magical artifact on the battlefield, the Golden Horn.
Unfortunately, imagination is beautiful, but reality is cruel.
After entering Shibasha City, Yu Deen's army that had given him great expectations not only failed to occupy any of the sand cities, but even the cruel environment caused his troops to suffer heavy losses. In the end, they were attacked by the sand thieves from Shibasha City. If Yu Deen's army had not been very strong in its army, perhaps even his 100,000 troops would not have been able to return.
But even so, less than half of Yu Deen's 100,000 expeditionary army came back.
With this bloody lesson, Yu Deen dispelled the idea of eliminating the sand thieves and occupying the Eighteen Sand City.
Naturally, the three words "Golden Horn" gradually disappeared into his mind.
Until today, these three words returned to his mind.
"I used to be rumored that Xiao Quan had this golden horn in his hand. I didn't believe it at that time. Now it seems that it is true." Yu Deen said with regret.
If he had known that Xiao Quan had a golden horn in his hand before, he would have sent the innate masters in his family to seize the golden horn.
The army of Shazhou cannot do anything to Xiao Quan, but several innate masters can definitely threaten Xiao Quan. I believe that if Xiao Quan is smart, he will definitely hand over the golden horn obediently.
When Yu Deen thought of a magic weapon on the battlefield like Golden Horn, he passed by him like this, he almost vomited blood in his heart.
In addition, the Golden Horn is still in the hands of his enemy Lin Ze, Yu Deen feels even more uncomfortable.
"Xu Qiong, do we have the ability to take the golden horn over?" Yu Deen asked unwillingly.
Yu Deen really wants the Golden Horn.
"Governor General, I can't do a humble position." Xu Qiong answered very directly.
"The combat effectiveness of Lin Lixuan's army is really too strong. The army of 10,000 defeated 140,000 troops. This is something we can never do. If we want to achieve the same military achievements, we must at least deploy a hundred thousand troops. Lin Lixuan has a total of 100,000 troops like this powerful army, so..."
Xu Qiong didn't say the rest, but everyone here knew what he had in his words.
"Hmph!" Yu Deen snorted heavily, his face full of anger.
Xu Qiong and others saw the dissatisfied expression on Yu Deen's face, but they didn't dare to stand up and say anything. Lin Ze's strength is much stronger than theirs, so they really have no chance of winning.
"Did I just let Lin Lixuan seize my rights?" Yu Deen thought with a gloomy face.
If he can't deal with the army in Lin Ze's hands, it will be extremely difficult for him to destroy Lin Ze.
At this time, Yu Deen's think tank, or military advisor Du Xun, spoke: "Sir, in fact, we don't need to send out any large army to encircle and suppress Lin Lixuan. With just a few small plans, we can destroy Lin Lixuan."
"Oh, let's talk!" Yu Deen's eyes lit up and said.
"Sir, Lin Lixuan is now the deputy governor of Shazhou and the general of the Western Regions. However, no matter what, he is also your subordinate, so we can give him some things." A trace of light flashed in Du Xi's eyes.
"Mr. Du, aren't you helping Lin Lixuan like this?" The person on the side immediately had objections.
"Haha, on the surface we seem to be helping Lin Lixuan, but in fact we are just luring Lin Lixuan into the trap." Du Xu said confidently.
"Did Lin Lixuan become the deputy governor or the general of the Western Regions? However, have you noticed that the emperor did not give Lin Lixuan any wealthy territory, but instead used some desert areas as Lin Lixuan's territory. Such a territory is good if it is not lost money, so we should not think about any output at all. Therefore, we can completely leave the matter of resettling those refugees to Lin Lixuan.
Perhaps in a short time, Lin Lixuan can accommodate these refugees. After all, he just won 10 million gold coins from the seventh prince, and also won 9 million gold coins from the casino in Kyoto...."
Speaking of this, Du Xi's eyes showed an envious look.
Not only Du Xi, but even Yu Deen's eyes also showed a look of envy, jealousy and hatred.
This is a 20 million gold coin. For Yu Deen, it is also an astronomical figure. It is impossible for him not to be jealous. What's more, it took Lin Ze only less than five days to earn a lot of gold coins.
In less than five days, I won 20 million gold coins, and I would be jealous if I replaced it.
"Twenty million gold coins!" Yu Deen shook his head enviously, "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore, Mr. Du, you continue talking."
"Yes, sir!" Du Xi also recovered, and continued: "The number of refugees in our sandbank is as high as four or five million. If so many refugees want to settle them, the money they need is definitely astronomical. Even if Lin Lixuan has 20 million gold coins, it will not play any role in it.
What's more, there are tens of millions of refugees in Qingzhou. We can continuously guide the refugees in Qingzhou to Lin Lixuan. In this way, his 20 million gold coins will be even less than enough, and the time to persevere will be shorter.
Once Lin Lixuan can't hold on, the millions of refugees will directly tear Lin Lixuan. Moreover, even if Lin Lixuan escapes, a crime of failing to appease will be enough for us to expel Lin Lixuan from the sandbank."
Speaking of this, Du Xi did not continue. He explained so in detail, I believe Yu Deen and the others must have understood it.
"Okay, okay, okay!" Yu Deen really understood and said three good words directly.
"Mr. Du, your method is good. We will deal with Lin Lixuan like this, hahahaha..." Yu Deen burst into laughter wildly.
"It's not only that. Sir, we can secretly control the sandbank's business, greatly increase the price of grain, and the prices of other materials urgently needed to resettle refugees. In this way, we can not only make a big profit from Lin Lixuan's 20 million gold coins, but also increase the difficulty of Lin Lixuan's resettle refugees. At that time..., hahaha!" Du Xi smiled with a smile on his face, with a look of pride in his eyes.
"Hiss...!" After hearing Du Xu's words, Xu Qiong and others took a breath.
Du Xun's plan was already poisonous enough, but he didn't expect that he had more poisonous plans.
In an instant, Xu Qiong and the others began to reflect on whether they had offended Du Xi before, so as not to give them some tricks.
"Hahahaha......" Yu Deen stood up and laughed wildly, and the shadow left by Lin Ze in his heart completely disappeared.
"Lin Lixuan, your strength is strong, but in the officialdom, it is not just about strength, there are many other things. Haha, this time I will teach you how to survive in the officialdom, hahaha..."
....................................................................................
After the Qingzhou rebels of more than 100,000 were eliminated by Lin Ze, Lin Ze set out on the road again, and no one else dared to cause trouble for Lin Ze.
This made Lin Hu and others around Lin Ze feel a little disappointed.
Why did the Qingzhou rebels attack them? Lin Hu and the others could think about it with their heels, not to mention that they also captured Heilong, the military advisors around him, and some other leaders, so they soon knew that this was the hand of the Governor's Office.
At the beginning, Lin Hu and the others thought that there would be wars in the middle. After all, the Governor's Office would never hope Lin Ze would survive. However, now it is about to arrive in Linsha City and there is no movement. It is obvious that the Governor's Office did not take any action again, which really disappointed Lin Hu and others who were preparing all the way.
Lin Ze had expected it, so he was not concerned about it.
He is also the deputy governor of Shazhou and the general of the Western Regions. Even if Yu Deen wants to kill him, he has to find a legitimate excuse. Like the previous Qingzhou rebels, it is absolutely impossible for him to do it himself.
Yu Deen really wanted to do this, just telling the court that he had rebelled. At that time, the court would definitely send a large army to attack Shazhou. In that case, Yu Deen would have a way out?!
Yu Deen is the strongest in Shazhou, but once such strength is added to the entire Chu State, Yu Deen cannot rank among the top 50, and the power of the sect is still not included here. Otherwise, the shadow of Yu Deen will not be seen in the top 100.
The rebels in Qingzhou can be said to be the most powerful force that Yu Deen can send. He can no longer do it if he wants to send such a powerful force.
"Now, just be careful about the assassination of the innate powerhouses under Yu Deen. Don't worry about the others anymore." Lin Ze thought secretly in his heart.
