Working Prophet.
Chapter 772 Proud and Frustrated
"...The lords gathered in the green field are starting to regret it now. Although Ilea still insists that the divine punishment will be brought down on Saturday, more and more people are beginning to realize that she is just pretending to be calm, and we are destined to lose Drop this battle.
"Oh, by the way, Merlin hasn't shown up for many days, and some people even suspect that he has escaped... The morale of the rebel army is very low now, and people secretly leave every day.
"...As soon as the army arrives, more people will surrender."
The person who is speaking now is a little noble nicknamed "The Wise Man". He also joined the rebel army led by Ilea, but he ran away early when he saw the situation was not good.
Hearing that Solomon's army was in Yanxue City, they rushed over to surrender without stopping.
Clovis brought him before Tristan and Balin, and he told about the current situation in Greenfield.
And after he finished speaking, Clovis added, "What he said should be true. He is not the first person to sneak away. Many nobles from Ilea's side have come to me before. , begging me to intercede with Lord Solomon on their behalf.
Tristan and Balin looked at each other with joy in their eyes.
"The time is ripe for a decisive battle," said the Patriarch of the Penrose family. "The army has rested for two days. It's time to set out to flatten the green fields and end this war."
Balin also grinned and said, "I heard that the woman named Ilea has made a lot of money over the years, and in order to redeem Prince Oli, His Majesty was blackmailed by her for a total of [-] golden lions.
"I am here this time to take on a heavy responsibility, to get back the money that originally belonged to the dwarves.
"In addition, I also heard that the Shuangxiu Church makes a lot of money selling cheap fabrics, a special kind of white paper, and some kind of magic medicine that can rejuvenate men.
"Before the expedition, Lord Solomon promised us that we could take half of the spoils. If so, then we will share the half of the spoils equally."
Hearing this, Tristan couldn't help cursing the greed of the dwarves in his heart. As soon as Balin came up, he insisted that the [-] golden lions paid to Ilea by the dwarf king Herre were blackmail.
Therefore, when the loot is divided up later, the [-] will not be included, and will be exclusively enjoyed by those dwarves.
And this is not the end, the equal split seems fair, but you must know that there are less than 2 dwarves this time, and the rest are noble lords and their fighters recruited by Solomon from all over the place.
How could so many people only get half of it.
Therefore, Tristan rejected the dwarf general's proposal without hesitation, "Let's divide it according to the head, or military merit, whoever contributes more will get more."
Bahrain frowned. Although the dwarves had excellent weapons, they were indeed not many in number, so they didn't take advantage of head count or military merit.
However, he couldn't find a good reason to refute Tristan, especially according to the distribution method of military merit, if Solomon were here, he would definitely agree.
So Balin rolled his little eyeballs, had an idea, and came up with a new idea.
"Then let's divide it according to military merit. Our main goal this time is to kill the female lord named Ilea and the prophet Merlin of the Shuangxiu Cult.
"If someone can bring back the head of one of them, they can get [-]% more loot, and the rest will share the remaining [-]%."
Tristan sneered in his heart. The dwarf general had almost written his plan on his face. After the war, they would definitely put all their energy on killing Ilea and Merlin.
But this time Tristan didn't refuse again, he didn't want to continue arguing with this caring and greedy dwarf.
The Penrose family is not short of money, and he doesn't care much about the wealth of the Shuangxiu Church, but he just needs to give an explanation to other noble lords.
Today's distribution method is much more reasonable than the previous one, at least on the surface, and Bahrain is so confident that he can get additional spoils, but the final result may not be as he wished.
Maybe not as much as head-to-head.
"Then let's do this." Tristan said lightly, and ordered his attendants to tell the other lords, and the whole army set off after lunch.
The soldiers of the coalition army were also quite excited when they heard that they were going to besiege the green field.
Many of them, like those dwarves, are also coveting the wealth of the Shuangxiu Church and the Arias family, and want to make a fortune there.
And along the way, they have hardly encountered any decent resistance, and there are rumors that the rebel army is on the verge of collapse, and the final decisive battle should be easy.
And when someone is proud, there will be someone who is frustrated.
When Solomon launched an attack on the Western Territory, Clovis also cooperated with the arrest of the two-day missionaries in the city and the believers on Saturday.
Many people, including Ilea's great-grandmother Ona, were arrested and thrown into the dungeon. The female lord once wrote to ask Ona to leave, but the latter refused.
The old man was very calm, saying that she was approaching her end, and she would have a good life in a few years. If Clovis and those Yi people wanted to kill her, then they would kill her.
It just happened to let other nobles in the western region see how the Figueirola family treated their vassals.
Besides Ona and other believers of Shuangxiu Cult, there was also a very special prisoner in the dungeon.
——Ivan, the former intelligence chief of the empire, was sent by Solomon to the west as a special envoy not long ago, but with Ranita captured and a giant dragon lost, there must be someone unlucky to carry this A black pot.
So Yiwang was also arrested for no reason and locked up in Yanxue City, waiting for Solomon to decide his fate.
Although looking at the friendship in the past, Clovis did not make it difficult for Ivan, and arranged for him the cleanest cell, and the daily meals were also served separately, as well as wine and meat.
But the feeling of waiting for the trial is not good, and with the political wisdom of the former intelligence chief, he can guess that he is in danger this time.
Solomon is a wise man, and he should be able to see at a glance that he was wronged, but Solomon also needs to answer to Zebulun.
If killing him would make Zebulun happier, Solomon would not have any hesitation. Thinking of this, Ewan couldn't help but sighed again.
At this moment, he saw two Yi tribesmen walking in from outside the dungeon.
The ex-intelligence chief thought it was Solomon who had arrived, and subconsciously shrank his neck, and the two Yi clansmen, led by the jailer, came towards him.
One of them said, "Follow me."
"Where are you going?" Ivan asked warily.
"Lvye." The Yi clansman waved his hand impatiently, "You don't know our languages, come out and act as an interpreter for us."
"Oh, by the way, Merlin hasn't shown up for many days, and some people even suspect that he has escaped... The morale of the rebel army is very low now, and people secretly leave every day.
"...As soon as the army arrives, more people will surrender."
