Douluo: Strange Fire Martial Spirit, starting with a hundred thousand year soul ring - Chapter 420

c419 Dai Mubai tricked and killed all the ministers

With the food, Chen Li’s worry disappeared.

Now, they can completely consume the Xingluo army like this. If they can spend another month, he will have made a great contribution.

On the other hand, the Xingluo Empire seemed a little distressed.

They couldn’t advance or retreat now. Attacking the city was simply unrealistic. The rear supply had been harassed. A rash attack would cause many casualties. Once someone attacked the barracks, they would be defeated.

As for besieging Izumo City, they had thought about it, but after ten days, the food in Izumo City was still not exhausted. On the contrary, they began to run out of food in the army.

The second elder in the rear also noticed the situation. The food now transported out was protected by an army of nearly a thousand people.

But those soul master teams had been harassing them. Basically, they would withdraw immediately after a few false shots. When the army transporting food relaxed their vigilance, they would come back again.

After all, they were few in number. When the food they brought was eaten up, they came to rob the food of the Xingluo Empire.

For safety reasons, the transport team moved very slowly. Even the carriages transporting food would catch fire from time to time.

The soldiers of the transport team were just ordinary people. Not only did they have to run back and forth, but they also had to be on guard against the sneak attacks of the soul master team at all times. Exhausted physically and mentally, some of them often collapsed on the spot and became deserters.

There was a problem with the war on the front line, and Dai Mubai in the rear could not sit still after receiving the news.

Today, he gathered all the ministers together for the first time. The theme of the court meeting was how to guard against the sneak attack team of the Tiandou Empire to safely deliver food to the front line.

This is not a simple problem of numbering people. Let 10,000 troops transport food, and the transport team also needs to consume food on the way. The more people, the more consumption. At the same time, every time they set out, they will make a long team, which is more likely to be attacked.

Not enough people to fill in, not enough food to add food, this is a false proposition. There is no good solution, and the offensive pace of the Xingluo Empire can only be stopped.

“Your Majesty, we don’t think that attacking the Tiandou Empire is the right choice. Since we have occupied more than a dozen cities, why not negotiate with the Tiandou Empire and force them to give up these cities and incorporate them into the territory of our Xingluo Empire.” Duke Carter said immediately.

Many of his industries can only make money on the basis of peace. Now that the entire empire has entered a wartime state, all production needs to give priority to serving the war. It is conceivable how much threat his industry has encountered.

Besides, Dai Mubai did not unanimously agree to launch a war with these ministers. Before today’s court meeting, they had already united many ministers and planned to force Dai Mubai to abdicate.

“Give up? Duke Carter said it lightly. Let me ask you, my Xingluo Empire army has been reporting victory all the way on the front line. Now withdrawing troops, don’t you feel ashamed?” Dai Mubai’s tone was stern and he was in a very bad mood.

You know, he wanted to become the co-lord of the continent and the emperor who created a new era for the continent. How could he give up such a big layout because of a small defeat?

Let’s take a step back and say, can’t the food be delivered to the front line?

The key is the cost. Regardless of the cost, each soul master of the soul master corps is equipped with a storage soul guide, and then the food is delivered to the front line in the form of a team. Even if it still doesn’t work, the worst that can happen is to let the strong men of the Haotian Sect and the Lake Heart Island run errands back and forth.

These ignorant ministers actually want to go against him, which is really ridiculous.

Since they are on the wrong side, don’t blame Dai Mubai for being ruthless.

The family of the great nobles is very large. Counting the retainers and their family disciples, it is not a problem to raise 10,000 people for Tang San.

Speaking of Tang San, he has used the power of the Rakshasa God in the past few days to initially establish the Rakshasa Secret Realm. The prisoners and guards in the sky prison, totaling more than a thousand people, have all been sacrificed to the Rakshasa God by Tang San.

Today, these ministers were summoned here, and they were originally planned to be used as a starter.

At this moment, Tang San was leading the disciples of the Haotian Sect to search the homes of these ministers one by one.

These ministers were in the palace, so they naturally didn’t know the situation outside. However, Dai Mubai couldn’t let the court meeting end now. Once these ministers left early, it is possible that they would gather people to assassinate him, the emperor.

“Your Majesty, I think that starting a war will only waste money and labor, and is not conducive to the long-term development of the empire. Moreover, our soldiers are all civilians from the countryside. Young and middle-aged people have gone to the battlefield, and the grain harvest of the empire will inevitably decrease next year, and there may even be famine.” A minister said.

The supervisor of the Imperial Observatory also advised: “Your Majesty, this old minister has observed the stars night and night recently, and there will be a severe drought next year. I beg Your Majesty to recall the soldiers on the front line to repair the water conservancy project and alleviate the drought!”

With the leader, the other ministers also advised.

Dai Mubai was so angry that he laughed. It turns out that the way they came up with to prevent food and grass from being attacked is to end the war!

Once the war is over, they don’t need to send food and grass to the front line, so this problem is of course solved!

“My dear ministers, are you trying to force me to go to court?”

Duke Carter was emboldened when he saw that all the ministers were on his side. “If your majesty is unwilling to end the war, we feel ashamed of the late emperor and the people of the empire. We are willing to resign from our positions in the court and never interfere in court affairs again.”

A large-scale strike by ministers would inevitably shut down the entire country.

But now, with the capable disciples of the Haotian Sect and the Huxin Island forces, what is the use of these ministers? The key point is that these disciples are on a united front with Dai Mubai and will not be used as thorns.

It seems that Xiao San is right. If all these ministers are dedicated to Senior Rakshasa God, all problems will be solved!

“It seems that all my dear friends are determined to go against me!” Dai Mubai’s Contra aura was undisguised, pressing down on all the ministers present.

Although these ministers are also soul masters, except for a few senior generals, none of them have soul power levels higher than Soul Saints. Faced with Dai Mubai’s pressure, many old and frail ministers instantly vomited blood and fell unconscious.

As for Duke Carter, who was standing in the front row, his body exploded into blood mist under the powerful pressure.

“Your Majesty, what do you mean? Duke Carter was only thinking about the people of the empire. Why did you kill him?” A Contra-level general accused Dai Mubai against the pressure of his soul.

Dai Mubai didn’t care at all, it was just a dog dying, it didn’t hurt anything.

“Originally, I planned to let you live a little longer, but now, I have changed my mind. Senior Bo Saixi, the next step is up to you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared in front of the ministers.

“Who are you, Your Majesty? How can an outsider be allowed to enter this important place for court meetings so easily!” All the ministers criticized one after another.

“Senior Bo Saixi, I’ll leave them to you. Don’t kill them all. Just knock them unconscious and hand them over to the mistress.” After saying that, Dai Mubai shook off his dragon robe and strode out of the court.

These ministers suddenly felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. They knew that Dai Mubai was planning to arbitrarily rule the government, and they, the ministers, were like grasshoppers in the autumn, waiting to be liquidated.

“There are many of us, don’t be afraid of her, let’s all come together. It’s time for this fatuous and incompetent emperor to be replaced.” The general with Contra power shouted.

Since Dai Mubai is unkind, then don’t worry about the rebellion of these ministers.

Bo Saixi did not speak. In her eyes, these ministers were just slightly bigger ants.

Just as the attack was about to fall in front of her, a powerful wave of soul power emerged from her body, and nine soul rings, eight black and one red, appeared at her feet.

She slowly raised her right hand, and in an instant, the entire court fell into deathly silence. The air was solidified by her powerful soul power.

…

Dai Mubai no longer paid attention to what was going on in the court, and saw that the city had been almost wiped out by Tang Sanqing, and then he approached him.

“Xiaosan, what should we do now? If the food and grass cannot be sent to the front line, I’m afraid we will have to stop the offensive. If the Tiandou Empire’s army is completely assembled, our subsequent battles will be difficult to fight.”

Tang San smiled evilly, “Mubai, at this stage, as long as the spirit master legion of Wuhun Palace does not end, who can stop the iron cavalry of our Star Luo Empire?”

That’s the truth, but both soldiers and horses need to eat. If you don’t give the horse grass, it won’t be able to run. There are even many troops on the front line who have begun to kill their horses to satisfy their hunger. How can this be done!

Of course Tang San knew that it was inappropriate to say this. If he didn’t give Dai Mubai a clear proposal, he might make some crazy moves.

Now, Tang Xiao personally guards Huxiao Pass behind the army and cannot leave at will; the important task of planning naturally falls on him.

“Mubai, every time our food transport team is robbed, it is because the food transport team is too large and can be easily recognized from a distance. How about this, let the soldiers transporting food take off their military uniforms and disguise themselves into civilians, broken up into small teams, and transported to the front line in multiple batches.”

Dai Mubai thought for a while and pointed out the problem, “The enemy is also a small team. If we do this, wouldn’t it be easier for us to be attacked by others?”

Tang San shook his head, “The number of their team is limited after all. If we break it into multiple teams, even if we are attacked, the losses will be minimized. In addition, we are only ‘civilians’ transporting food, and the Tiandou Empire launches attacks on civilians.” , doesn’t it give us a reason to continue the war?”

Hearing this, Dai Mubai suddenly became enlightened. He never thought that he could do this.

“Xiaosan, you are still smart, I will arrange the matter now.”

“Wait a minute.” Tang San stopped him, “Have you investigated the origins of the team of soul masters that suddenly appeared in the Tiandou Empire? I suspect that these soul masters were sent by the Spirit Hall.”

His suspicions were justified.

The soul master legion directly affiliated to the Star Luo Empire only has more than two thousand people. The number of soul masters in the Tiandou Empire will only be smaller. According to the information currently available, the Tiandou Empire has dispatched at least fifty soul master teams. There are ten people in each team, which adds up to more than 500 people.

This is just a preliminary estimate, and the real number should be much higher.

The Tiandou Empire has broken all its soul master legions into pieces, so will they still be able to fight in the next war? If the Star Luo Empire sends out an army of soul masters, how will they deal with it?

Therefore, Tang San felt that there was a high probability that there was a spirit master from Wuhun Palace among them. The Tiandou Empire sends two to three hundred people, which will not affect the combat effectiveness of the soul master army. If the remaining people are not from the Spirit Hall, wouldn’t they make themselves lose faster by doing this?

Dai Mubai didn’t think so, “Xiao San, it shouldn’t be possible. Wuhun Palace has never made any big moves, and they have never declared war on us. To send out a team of soul masters now is not a blatant violation of the rules.”

Tang San’s words were just speculations. They couldn’t confront the Spirit Hall because of this. If things went wrong, the Spirit Hall would enter the battlefield ahead of time, and the next battle would be difficult for them.

After thinking for a while, Tang San said: “Mubai, don’t alert the enemy for now. Even if we catch some spirit masters, it is enough to confirm that they are from the Spirit Hall. Don’t go looking for trouble with the Spirit Hall.”

After all, the Spirit Hall can say that these spirit masters spontaneously formed teams to join the army of the Heaven Dou Empire in order to protect their homes. They may even take this opportunity to turn the tables and declare war on the Xingluo Empire.

“Xiao San, don’t worry, I know my limits.”

After a pause, Dai Mubai smiled and asked: “Xiao San, are the blood slaves to be sacrificed to Senior Luosha ready?”

Raksha God himself needs to absorb abilities from blood to improve himself. She would take a fancy to the Slaughter City, in addition to wanting to fight against Shura God, the bigger reason is that the blood there is too abundant.

Since she left, her divine thought obviously couldn’t go back. It was normal for Tang San, the successor, to provide her with blood.

Tang San said: “Including the ministers you arrested at the court meeting, there are more than 10,000 people in total.”

“But Mubai, the people of the Zhu family are getting restless. When we were arresting people just now, they sent strong men to resist. How about this, you ask Senior Bo Saixi to go to the Zhu family later and sacrifice all their people to Senior Luosha God.”

“Leave it to me.” Dai Mubai agreed with a smile.

Since he decided to take action against the ministers, he had no intention of leaving the Zhu family alone.

The Zhu family used to support the decision of the Xingluo Emperor unconditionally, but now is different. Since Dai Mubai refused to make a disciple of the Zhu family the queen, the Zhu family not only began to feel dissatisfied, but even sang against him Dai Mubai in many things. He had had enough.

Now with Bo Saixi, the top strong man, Dai Mubai will never hesitate when he takes action.

The two separated, and Tang San entered the sky prison.

This place has been completely transformed by him. The Rakshasa statue standing at the bottom will devour all the blood around it.

Except Tang San, anyone who enters it will not be able to survive, even Dai Mubai is no exception.

After the Rakshasa statue drained the blood from the people he captured, the bodies were randomly piled up in various places in the prison.

Tang San stepped on the bodies of these people and walked towards the Rakshasa statue step by step.

Rakshasa told him that part of the blood would be stored by the statue, and the rest would be returned to him in the form of soul power.

In this way, the more people who offer sacrifices, the better. (End of this chapter)
