It was right at this iant red-crowned roc appeared, just aFanyun
A cavalryman was the first to notice the shadow in the sky, which caused hi in the Norland dialect Then, Gu Shenwei raised his head and whistled
It was very rare for the giant roc to kill hu that it was the iant black bird descended fro the pursuing one They had only heard of the existence of this evil bird and this was the first time that they could behold it with their own eyes
Nuon King’s arhtened
Gu Shenhistled out in various tones and tiiant red-crowned roc It never got too close to the pursuing are of the cavalryusts of wind that blew all the approaching arron to the ground Sorabbed an eneiant, red-crowned roc was doing this all by itself, and under the threat of the rain of arrows, its fighting capability was considerably restricted Yet its presence still greatly disturbed theRizhu’s troops
Gu Shenwei and his surviving troops had successfully thrown off their pursuers, and the giant roc was the greatest contributor to their success
AfterRizhu’s troops finally retreated Before long, an army of more than 10,000 had come to Gu Shenwei’s aid and he and his men were finally safe
Their troops went on to pursue that ar returned to ca ambushed stirred the camp, and there was a brief moment of panic To comfort the troops, Gu Shenalked around half the ca Wenshi+ was terrified and he alri After being told that it was the surviving troops of King Rizhu who had a “Are you sure they weren’t King Shengri’s troops, just disguised?”
The 10,000- Rizhu’s troops, but they hadback more than a hundred corpses,Rizhu’s soldiers by on King His father, Zhe Su, was now the co Rizhu’s army and he couldn’t believe that his father would provoke the Dragon King without caring for his life “Your Majesty, if you still have any faith in ate this There has to be so on behind the scenes”
Gu Shenwei gave his consent After Li Wenshi+ shook his head repeatedly “Your Majesty, you now have more than 10,000 cavalrymen at your disposal, which makes you invincible in the Royal Court Even if you return to the Western Region, you’d still be a formidable force to be reckoned with So it’s really unnecessary for you to take such risks And this Li Tribe and used to serve King Rizhu If you let hi to worry about and will only act ht I shouldn’t take risks And in regards to Li Rizhu had already declared war against us, so it’s unnecessary for us to keep him here If by any chance there really is a hidden plot behind all this, hean extra enemy”
“Alas, there’re too many uncertain variables, which -term plan Shulitu and Azheba are still in the Court Attendants Army’s ca the Khan’s body back, Your Majesty?”
“Yes, and his head as well” Gu Shenwei and Mo Lin had been playing the role of distractions at the palace while Long Fanyun had led hisout the head which was now properly preserved Only a s Wenshi+ felt anxious Although he was a the feere allowed to know this confidential intelligence, the Dragon King still had a growing tendency to reement between them “Your Majesty, there’s one issue that I’d like to know the truth about
“What is it?”
“Are you still willing to get rid of the Court Attendants Ar soft-hearted”
Gu Shenwei had no idea what it was like to be soft-hearted, but he did not ever hesitate Especially during the battle last night, the Court Attendants Arreater than common soldiers’ And if it hadn’t been for them, the 500 cavalrymen most likely would not have made it to see the dawn
“This’s Shulitu’s opportunity If he succeeds, then he will become more than just a puppet”
“This is another issue that I’roo?”
“In any case, we need a reliable ally in the Norland”
“Yes, but isn’t there a Prince Duodun in the Western Regions? Both the woman he loves and his friends are in your camp, and he hidom, which makes him the perfect ally”
“Don’t you think that we need a substitute?”
Fang Wenshi+ pondered for a while and nodded reluctantly “We do, but Shulitu is only twelve years old… Alas, well, I agree that we should give him a chance, but if the Court Attendants Army refuses to come to their senses…”
“It’s said that the civil wars are all over, so the Court Attendants Arht”
Fang Wenshi+ wished that everything could be handled in an orderly and methodical manner, but the Court Attendants Ar from anxiety and insoet rid them of the deceased Khan’s influence
And he had two more subjects to discuss “Also, Your Majesty, about the archery contest with King Shengri’s ar fu competition with people from the Central Plains… Have you found a way to ensure our victory?”
“Not yet, but I will soon”
