Chapter 207 Your Majesty wants to reduce the vassalage
Jiang Lin knew very well that the Blacksmith Camp was just a cover for what happened today.
Even if he hadn't chased the murderer thousands of miles away, the border army would have found some other reason to come to Qingzhou.
And it would be difficult for him to kill the old man who was at the fifth level of Yuanwu Realm in front of Li Zelin, so he might as well not kill him at all.
What is more useful than killing is killing one's heart.
Don’t you Qingzhou Li family really like disgusting people? I’m better at it than you!
I have killed the people, I want the weapons, and you have to give me the money!
Rather than looking for trouble, I have seen more classic cases than you have ever heard of!
As for whether the Qingzhou Li family will retaliate afterwards, Jiang Lin thinks absolutely not.
Yushuai is here to take advantage of you today. Do you dare to touch a hair on my head?
After understanding this, Jiang Lin had no scruples, no matter how exaggerated he was.
In other words, his imagination is a bit lacking, at least he is not as good at settling accounts as Xu Kaijin.
Li Zelin's face turned dark when he heard this. How dare a small ninth-level martial artist dare to blackmail someone like this?
Still blackmailing people in front of him, the third master of the Li family, who is in the divine martial realm!
It was Qingzhou Li who was the one who was defrauding!
Be bold!
"Hahahaha! It's interesting, it's interesting. I like this guy, not bad." Yu Shuai laughed loudly, looked at Li Zelin and said, "Did you hear the compensation our border army wants?"
Li Zelin looked gloomy: "Is Yu Shuai joking?"
Yu Shuai's smile suddenly stopped, and then it became extremely cold, and unspeakable huge pressure instantly surged towards Li Zelin.
"You think I'm joking?"
Of course not, you are here to trick people!
To be precise, he deliberately forced Qingzhou Li to become angry and do something he shouldn't have done.
Li Zelin felt like a mirror. On the surface, there were only a few thousand border troops here, but as long as Yu Shuai said a word, millions of border troops could gather here within ten days.
As for the frontier, Ling Shuai is in charge. Although no battle reports have been sent back, the powerful have their own channels for information.
The allied forces of Dachen and Daliang marched straight in and invaded within a thousand miles of Daqian. Now they have been dumped by Ling Shuai and suffered heavy casualties.
Ling Shuai's goal was very clear, to eat up this coalition force in one go, and then take advantage of the situation to counterattack Dachen and Daliang, expand the territory for Daqian again, and take over the two neighboring dynasties.
Too dark.
It is said that Xuanhua Dao's rebellion led to the defeat of the border army and the loss of thousands of miles of land. What was the result?
Xuanhua Road was being besieged on the hilltop by the Mie Dao Battalion. The Dachen and Daliang coalition forces were about to be destroyed, and the losses of the frontier troops were negligible.
Moreover, in the process of the border army's retreat, all the city lords and local government troops were mobilized.
The disobedient ones will be beheaded directly, and the obedient ones will be replaced.
The powerful are not fools. They have seen through the nature of this war.
Destroy Xuanhua Dao, destroy Dachen and Daliang, and control the frontier thousands of miles away.
Killing three birds with one stone, such a plan is amazing and frightening.
There were already two smaller and powerful clans that were captured with lightning speed because they offended the border troops in this war.
The specific situation is still unclear, but what is certain is that the territory of those two companies no longer exists.
Other powerful clans have not yet reacted, and they have not been able to immediately unite and come up with a response plan. Some people only feel that this defeat is not that complicated.
All may be conjecture.
Although Emperor Shun kept a low profile and used himself as bait to kill the backbone of Xuanhua Dao, it did not mean that Daqian had the ability to deal with all the noble clans at the same time.
Therefore, before this sign really appears, we still need to live as peacefully as possible with the court. This is also the reason why Li Zelin has to give in again and again.
Yu Shuai's martial arts cultivation is extremely terrifying. Li Zelin is already at the second level of the Divine Martial Realm, but he feels like a small boat in the stormy sea, which may be torn apart at any time.
He gritted his teeth and endured this huge pressure, struggling to speak out: "I was confused for a moment and said something rude. Please forgive Yushuai."
Jiang Lin said: "If an apology is useful, why do we need the border army? Let's just pay for something that Yushuai can like."
Li Zelin was worried about cutting him into pieces, but he didn't dare to make any unnecessary moves. Instead, he nodded quickly: "Okay! We will compensate!"
If you keep being pushed harder and refuse to agree, who knows what incredible conditions will be put forward later.
After hearing this, Yu Shuai no longer released the pressure, and a faint smile appeared on his face, saying: "That's right. You clans have no conflict of interest with the border army, so why bother getting into trouble over a trivial matter. What happened today , let it go. Don’t stand still, pack up and go back to see what they are doing, it’s really shameful.”
Jiang Lin went back and handed the broken sword to the general and said, "I'm sorry, the sword is broken. I'll give you a new one later."
The general was so happy that he offered to pay three hundred for each broken one. If he had said this was a good thing, he would have brought all the weapons of the battalion.
Xu Kaijin licked his lips and said with a smile: "Master Jiang, do we also have a share of the one hundred thousand taels of silver?"
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Ten million taels?" Jiang Lin was surprised, where did he get so much money?
"You see, one person will lose tens of thousands taels, one hundred people will be compensated tens of millions taels, and one thousand people will be compensated one hundred thousand taels?" Xu Kaijin said.
Jiang Lin's eyelids jumped when he heard this, and after a while he said: "Master Xu should leave matters like settling accounts to professionals."
"Ah? Isn't the calculation wrong? I am very good at calculating accounts. I will never make a mistake in calculating how many heads I have chopped off!" Xu Kaijin said.
Qi Hongwu came over and said, "Jiang Lin, go and go with Yu Shuai. He wants to have a few words with you."
"Yes." Jiang Lin responded quickly and ran to Yu Shuai.
Yu Shuai glanced at him and smiled as he walked: "Did you enter Liao Mingxu's Nanling Camp?"
"Yes."
"That kid is one of the few smart people in our frontier army. You won't suffer much if you follow him. Moreover, your grandfather Wei Xiangzhong was once a member of the 100 households in the Nanling Camp. They are all his own people." Yu Shuai said.
"There are many smart people in the frontier army, and Yu Shuai is the most intelligent. As for our own people...as long as they wear the badge of frontier army, they are all our own people in my opinion." Jiang Lin said.
Yu Shuai was startled, then laughed and said to Qi Hongwu: "Did you see that this kid's skills with his mouth are much better than his hands?"
This is neither derogatory nor complimentary. It can only be said to be a casual joke made by an old man to his grandchildren.
No one will care, only envy.
There are not many people in the world who can make Yu Shuai joke like this.
"But I don't like to just flatter you. Since you say that I am smart, you have to say it clearly. Otherwise, don't blame others for beating you with a military stick." Yu Shuai said.
Jiang Lin said without hesitation: "Isn't it smart enough to use the Southern Blacksmith Camp as a lever to defeat the powerful clans and learn from famous teachers?"
"That's all?" Yu Shuai said, "I originally wanted to give you fifty military sticks, but now I'll give you half as much."
Jiang Lin thought for a while and said hesitantly: "There are some things I don't know if I can say."
"You'll know if it's possible until you tell me." Yu Shuai said.
Jiang Lin took a deep breath and said, "I think this time is just an opportunity."
"Opportunity? What opportunity?"
"Your Majesty wants to cut down the feudal vassal."
