Chapter 357 Returning with Victory
The genius remembers the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No advertisements! Actively preparing for the war for a few days, there is no movement from the Human Empire, but the subordinates brought good news.
"Master Keen," the soldier who came to report was excited, "General Zhuoma, General Alvin, General Moses, General Mi Gao, and General Leo led tens of thousands of horses back, and they are currently waiting outside the fortress!"
"They're back?!" Jia Zhengjin hastily left the work in hand and handed it over to the kobold craftsmen to continue making equipment, and left the factory excitedly, "But I'm waiting so anxiously! Wait! You said tens of thousands of horses? Isn't that right? ? When those guys went out, didn’t they just bring three or four thousand city guards with them?”
"Eh~ I don't know!" The soldier shook his head blankly.
"Let them enter the city quickly!" Jia Zhengjin said excitedly, "No matter what, our army is finally back! By the way, counting the time, Karl's transport team should be returning soon, right?"
"Then I'll inform General Varian immediately!" The soldier turned around immediately.
"Wait!" Jia Zhengjin thought for a while, and hurriedly chased after them, "I will meet them personally!"
But he said that outside the gate of the fortress, five generals, Zhuoma, Alvin, Mi Gao, Moses, and Leo, lined up.
Behind them, in addition to nearly four thousand city guards, there are more than six thousand soldiers in leather armor who don't know where they came from.
Varian looked down on the fortress wall and watched the army. Although it has been known from other people that they are actually troops sent by the Holy Dragon City, he will definitely not open the door easily before getting the order from Lord Keen.
However, Varian envied Zhuoma and Alvin's Tier 2 Warcraft mounts. Such a strong creature was a mount, which was full of temptation for him.
Varian was looking at the five generals in the city, and the people below were also looking at him.
"I didn't expect Lord Keen to build such a majestic fortress in such a short period of time, and he added so many generals and troops! The strength of our Holy Dragon City has increased again!" Dolma was quite proud.
"But this time things are a bit serious," Alvin said on the sidelines. "All forces are mobilizing troops, which is quite unfavorable to us!"
"What are you afraid of? Anyway, there is a giant dragon, and it is a giant dragon with almost the power of a god!" Zhuoma laughed, "We fight side by side with the giant dragon, what else is there to be afraid of?"
"It's you, I don't know where you have such confidence!" Alvin looked at him and couldn't help shaking his head.
At this moment, a giant dragon suddenly appeared in the airspace above the fortress. Isn't the one standing on top of the dragon's head Lord Keen?
"Wow!!" No matter inside or outside the fortress, all the generals and soldiers subconsciously knelt down on one knee. The faces of the more than 6,000 students who followed the city guards were stunned for a few seconds, and then they knelt down.
But this kneeling revealed some abrupt characters in the army.
Jia Zhengjin didn't let the fake giant dragon land, and flew directly over the fortress to the sky above Zhuoma and the others. Looking at the group of people standing upright in the middle of the crowd, bound hands and feet by the ring of imprisonment, he asked, "Who are those?"
"Master Keen," Dolma turned his head to glance, then raised his head and replied in a low voice, "On the way to send the elf princess home, Duke Ferman, the owner of Sea Dragon City, sent troops out of the city to intercept and rob people! But their troops Those who are weak can be directly defeated by us! Then there was a riot in the city, and Owen, the general of the city lord of Sea Dragon City, was dissatisfied with the Duke's policy of hunting and trading elves, so he instigated an army uprising and cooperated with us to capture Duke Felman and others. All high-ranking officials and nobles! The princess has now been safely sent back to the Forest of Elves. Because we heard about the changes in the power of the major human empires and were preparing to deal with the Holy Dragon City, we traveled starry night with envoys from the Forest of Elves to escort Duke Felman Thirty-six officials and nobles, including them, return!"
"I asked you to send him home, and asked you to ask Duke Ferman for a ransom. What do you mean by arresting him?" Jia Zhengjin was speechless for a moment.
"Also, what happened to the troops behind?"
"Lord Keen," Dolma replied, "these are the troops of justice following General Owen's uprising! General Owen asked them to assist in escorting the Duke of Fairman and the nobles of Sea Dragon City first, and they will stay to assist us Stationed in Sacred Dragon City, to deal with the next possible battle!"
"Lord Keane," Varian said suddenly on the city wall, "Beware of deceit! If the enemy forces encircle our soldiers and use this as an excuse to deceive the city, there will be endless troubles, and it will be impossible to guard against!"
Hearing this, Jia Zhengjin glanced back at Varian in surprise, then laughed and said, "It's good for you to think so, but it's too much to worry about! You don't know Zhuoma and them, but I know them very well. They are not The type that will be subdued by the enemy and obey orders. Hurry up and open the city gates to welcome our victorious army!"
"Yes!" Although Varian tried to persuade him, he still followed Jia Zhengjin's orders.
"Master Keen!!" Dolma and other five generals were all excited, feeling extremely warm in their hearts for Jia Zhengjin's trust.
The gate of the fortress opened quickly, and led by Zhuoma, Alvin, Migao, Leo, and Moses, the city guards led the troops from Sea Dragon City, escorting Duke Ferman and the dignitaries of Sea Dragon City to pass slowly.
"Master Keen, what should we do with these prisoners?" After entering the fortress, Dolma found Jia Zhengjin who had landed.
Jia Zhengjin didn't even bother to look at it: "Put it in the prison first, but remember to separate it from other people, so as not to be infected as a blood slave. Let's discuss their problems tomorrow. Today, I will welcome you to celebrate and talk about your experience in Sea Dragon City. ! And what happened to Owen? He sent these more than 6,000 troops, really just to assist us?"
"Master Keen, before that, please talk to the elf messenger first!" Dolma said, "We can talk about taking care of us at night, this emissary was sent by the elf king himself, absolutely not Negligence! And..."
"What else?" Jia Zhengjin asked.
"Because the Duke of Fairman refused to pay Madam Natasha's ransom, after we broke through Sea Dragon City, we ransacked their treasury on the spur of the moment. And I made my own decision, leaving half of the gold coins for General Owen, and only transporting the other Return half of the gold coins. This matter was not approved by Master Keen, please punish me!" Dolma said with her head bowed.
"The treasury?" Jia Zhengjin hastily reached out and grabbed him, "How many gold coins are there?"
"Master Keen, all the dozens of carriages behind the troops are pulling them!" Zhuoma whispered, "There are more than 200,000 gold coins in the vault of Sea Dragon City, and we brought back 100,000! The remaining 100,000, General Owen will use it to rebuild the facilities in the city, appease the people, recruit more soldiers, and create more weapons and armor."
"200,000..." Jia Zhengjin clenched his fists and almost died of anger, "Why don't they all be brought back? Why leave it to that Owen? He's not one of us!"
"Uh~ Lord Keen, General Owen has surrendered to me!" Dolma scratched his face, "I agreed to his surrender on behalf of Lord Keen, and it was my fault for not consulting Lord Keen in advance! "
"Then we should directly bring back people and money! Why stay in Sea Dragon City?" Jia Zhengjin said speechlessly.
"It's a pity to give up the city that we finally took down?" Dolma replied, "General Owen is running Sea Dragon City on behalf of Lord Keen, which can ensure that the forest of elves will not be disturbed. This time, the envoy of the elves is here Firstly, to thank Lord Keen for saving the elf princess, secondly, to thank Lord Keen for taking in the people of the elves, and thirdly, to form an alliance with Lord Keen, with the forest of elves, sea dragon city, The three places of Sacred Dragon City form a line, forming the most stable offensive and defensive alliance!"
"Damn it! I can't even take care of my own Holy Dragon City..." The corner of Jia Zhengjin's mouth twitched, "Then have you raided the homes of those officials and nobles?"
"Master Keen, it's inhumane to do that!" Dolma shook his head and said, "It will arouse public resentment in Sea Dragon City, which is not good for us!"
"...What I care about now is not public grievances, but gold coins!" Jia Zhengjin sighed, how much does he need gold coins now?
