Law of the Devil

Speaking of which, Ruolin's trip to Nanyang was indeed full of twists and turns.

At the beginning, she was on the way back with the old priest Lao Benka from Nanyang. That Laobenka is an old man, he guessed that the other party would take the opportunity to draw a nautical map, and when leading the way, he deliberately took everyone away, but Ruolin saw it through, gave him a hard lesson, and then settled down down.

In all the southern sea expeditions of the empire, even the most distant places visited by the fleets are far away from the giant island of Brahman. And because of this, the Nanyang people living on Brahman Island were able to live in peace. Otherwise, if the empire knows that there is such a big island in the distance of Nanyang—the area equivalent to two provinces, it is almost equivalent to a small continent. What's more, there are rich products. If the empire knows, how can there be any reason not to lead troops to attack?

It's a pity that Lao Benka's scheme was seen through, and Ruolin was able to draw the nautical map smoothly.

After arriving at Brahman Island, the situation they faced was not that simple.

It turned out that since the last Roland Empire fleet expedition led to the establishment of the Nanyang United Kingdom, the largest resistance was beaten by the empire's powerful navy and almost the whole army was touched, making this new United Kingdom full of despair almost from top to bottom The idea of ​​the big tribes united is even more divided, and many people even made up their minds to continue to move southward to the more distant southern seas.

And when Ruolin arrived with the fleet, extremely fierce quarrels broke out in the Nanyang United Kingdom. Facing the suffocating pressure of the Roland Empire, the chiefs of the major tribes in the United Kingdom have different positions. Pessimism dominates the mainstream, thinking that everyone should give up the Brahmin Island where they have lived for generations and migrate to the south. Of course, there are also a small number of main battles, some fierce tribes. It is advocated to gather strength, fight to the death with the Roland Empire, and defend the homeland.

What's even more strange is that in this phenomenon, a strange faction has actually emerged. There are several tribes of people. He even came up with a third way: to seek peace with the Roland Empire.

But whether it's the fleeing faction, the main fighting faction, or the peace-seeking faction. But all of them have a consensus: they all seem to have little interest in continuing to preserve this kingdom. As for the current interim king of the United Kingdom, he is a relatively powerful tribal patriarch among these tribes. The patriarch deeply trusted the chief priest, Lao Benka. Insist on waiting until the great priest who went out to look for the descendants of the Father God tribe returns, and then everyone discusses and decides.

Under such circumstances, Ruolin arrived at Brahman Island with a huge fleet of 80 giant sea-going ships.

It is conceivable that after having endured many invasions by the Roland Empire, the Nanyang people have developed an almost instinctive fear and hatred towards the people of the Roland Empire.

So, when eighty giant sea ships. When such a huge fleet came to Brahmin, it immediately caused panic. On land, welcome Ruolin. It is the United Kings Army that hastily assembled after the panic.

Overlook these armies from the boat. At that time, Ruolin's gang almost laughed out loud—if this can be counted as an army.

These natives do not have uniform armor. There is not even a unified military uniform. Many people are just wearing animal skins, or even some armor made of rattan. The weapons in their hands are also mottled and messy. There are metal weapons, inferior bows and arrows, and even land A sharpened wooden stick was used.

Ruolin deeply understands that in order to complete Du Wei's blackmail mission, she must first stand up! Therefore, even though the high priest Lao Benka begged hard, the female knight still made a decision: to fight! !

All the ballistas on the eighty giant sea ships fired a salvo! In almost a moment, the originally crude wharf port was blasted into ruins, and hundreds of Tulip family guards on board fired a volley of bows and arrows, which also caused heavy losses to the troops of the United Kingdom at the first encounter. .

Afterwards, those guys fled in fear.

The first time we met each other, these Nanyang people were hurt and scared. Afterwards, Lao Benka was sent ashore by Ruolin to communicate with the Nanyang people. When the other party saw the high priest come back, they immediately held a patriarchal meeting, and then had to welcome the female knight from the Roland Empire to land.

Ruolin did not relax. She ordered all fleets to be vigilant and ready for battle at any time. She also ordered that no one was allowed to leave the ship, and no Nanyang boats were allowed to approach her fleet. Anyone who approached within the range of her fleet would be killed. .

Afterwards, Ruolin swaggered, brought a few followers, took a small boat, and went ashore.

Next, she was greeted with grand etiquette all the way to a city in Brahman Island—let's call it a city. After listening to the statement of the chief priest, Old Benka, the Patriarchs' Conference of the United Kingdom learned that they had found the descendant of the tribe of God the Father, and immediately became enthusiastic.

After all, Nanyang people still have a strong belief in the Father God. Immediately, whether it was the main battle, the main peace, or even the fleeing faction, most people believed that little Lufick should be welcomed back.

However, there were also two or three tribes who raised objections. They thought: Anyway, they are going to leave and escape, and there is no need for a new king here. Then, it is not worth paying a huge price to welcome a child back.

As a result, the argument turned into a brawl. The guys even came close to fighting at the end.

This quarrel went through ten days without any result, which made Ruolin extremely impatient. Finally, in front of all the patriarchs, the female knight uttered harsh words:

If you are not willing to pay any ransom, then I don't mind asking our Lord Duke to kill that kid immediately after I go back! Moreover, I brought a huge fleet here, and I went back empty-handed. My master confessed! Since you guys are not willing to give the money...then I have no choice but to take it myself!! I will take my fleet back tomorrow, anyway, from here to the Roland Continent, the road will pass through countless islands, and there are countless tribes of yours , I will go all the way and kill all the way. Kill all the way and grab all the way!

These words are shocking enough!

To be honest, the eighty giant sea ships that Ruolin brought are really scary. At least, even the expeditionary force of the Roland Empire never had such a large number of ships come - even Du Wei's father. Earl Raymond's expedition back then. It was just bringing more than 30 boats. .

However, Ruolin is actually bluffing. After all, her fleet is different from the empire's navy. Although her fleet is huge, there are not many combat personnel on the eighty large ships. Only the sailor establishment remained. After all, these ships came here to transport things. If they came with a full load of troops, where would there be room to transport things?

It seems that the fleet is huge, but in fact it is not strong in force.

But this also frightened the Nanyang people. They were not afraid of the Roland people going ashore, but if Ruolin was allowed to go all the way back in such a blatant way. Burning, killing and looting all the way, although these big tribes living on Brahman Island are not afraid. But after all, there were also many people from the tribes on the surrounding small islands at this patriarch meeting. These people quit.

immediately. Many people fell to the position of the chief priest, Lao Benka.

On the night when Ruolin uttered harsh words, a large number of Nanyang people came to the shore. Pigs and sheep were slaughtered, and fruits and delicacies were sent to the fleet one after another, just to appease these terrible invaders from the Roland Empire.

And those tribes who stood against each other withdrew from the patriarch meeting angrily, and even the chiefs of several tribes went back to prepare for the battle!

Ruolin saw all this, but she had already made a decision in her heart.

The following series of events fully demonstrated the growth of the female knight Ruolin! Even Du Wei couldn't help sighing after listening to Ruolin's narration: What a Ruolin! What a knight! !

It turned out that Ruolin watched with cold eyes and saw clearly the internal conflicts among these Nanyang tribes. She actually brought people back to the ship without making a sound. Combatants, 800 people were drawn out-this is already a limit. They quietly mobilized two large boats, took advantage of the darkness, personally brought eight hundred soldiers, and left around Brahman Island in two large boats...

According to the results of the secret investigation in the past few days, Ruo Lin circled to the side of Brahman Island within three days, then landed suddenly, and attacked a tribe opposed by the Chinese Communist Party. Five hundred elite Tulip family fighters, using their superior weapons and armor, And the superb combat skills, almost overnight, drove down that tribe.

Beheading thousands, killing a tribe of tens of thousands of people to pieces, and then burning that tribe to ashes. Afterwards, without stopping at all, they took five hundred elites and went deep into Brahman Island for three hundred miles. Wherever they went, they used iron and blood methods to kill all the way in, and killed all the tribes in that area who opposed the high priest and advocated welcoming King Rufik. Killed and defeated.

It was her first time to lead an army in battle, but she won the essentials of soldiers are precious and fast. She suddenly attacked all the way in, and the momentum was like a broken bamboo. Everywhere she went to the tribe, she was caught by these well-equipped and fiercely defended Tulip family before she could react. The samurai were killed to collapse. Just this once, Ruolin wiped out two small tribes in one go, and almost disabled a medium-sized tribe. And the patriarchs of the three tribes who strongly opposed it were beheaded by Ruolin.

Of course, Ruolin also lost a lot of her five hundred elites. But in Ruolin's view, such a sacrifice is worth it.

When this news reached the patriarchs' meeting, those who were still arguing were immediately shocked.

Ruolin's divine soldiers dispatched in a surprise attack from the sky, putting those guys at risk. In the end, the chief priest, Lao Benka, had no choice but to cooperate with Ruo Lin, even though he was very helpless towards Ruo Lin's perverted behavior.

After Ruolin returned to the fleet with hundreds of men by boat, she no longer filed a case. Instead, she sent someone to send the heads of the three tribal chiefs killed by Ruolin to these Nanyang people. Went to Ruolin's ultimatum: three days, either give money, or, I will take the anchor and return! Kill all the way back!

But in three days, great changes took place on Brahman Island. Those small and medium tribes who were feared by Ruolin immediately united closely with the surrender faction headed by the chief priest Lao Benka.

But the two independent tribes were enraged by Ruo Lin's actions, and went back to gather their troops to take revenge. Du Wei nodded repeatedly.

Then... Ruolin raised her eyebrows, Then, of course it's a war. There are more than 20 tribes in existence, and eight tribes are the largest. Each of these eight tribes has a population of hundreds of thousands. Because of Ruolin's actions and the high priest's surrender action. Makes two stances the best tribe. In the end, he chose to declare war by force.

However, the equipment of weapons and the backwardness of civilization made them doomed to perish even before the war started.

These guys gathered about 50,000 young and strong warriors from the tribe, but unfortunately they were unable to attack Ruolin on the sea—even these tribes had boats, but those small boats. It is still unable to cause any damage to Ruolin's fleet.

Moreover, Ruolin once again showed her intelligence at this time. Facing the menacing attack of tens of thousands of troops from the two tribes, as well as the small boats of those tribes, Ruolin ordered the whole army to lift anchor. On that day, she led a fleet of 80 large ships without even saying hello. Leaving Brahman Island.

Ruo Lin's escape made the two tribes immediately become arrogant, they thought it was their army that scared Ruo Lin away. And since the war has started. But they cannot return without success. After losing their biggest combat enemy Ruo Lin, they and the soldiers under them. He could only turn his anger on the poor high priest Lao Benka and the surrender faction led by him.

result. The 50,000 troops of the main combat faction attacked the capital city of the United Kingdom. The great priest, Lao Benka, had to go to war to protect himself, and all the tribes of the surrender faction also united, assembled the armies of their respective tribes, and started a big war.

At the beginning, the chief priest, Lao Benka, didn't want to make a big deal out of it. He thought that as long as he could protect himself, fight off these hot-headed guys, and then find a chance to appease them slowly.

However, once the war started, it was no longer under his control.

After all, there were so many tribes living in this land, and over the years, there have been conflicts and even feuds among the various tribes. With such a large size, tribes immediately took the opportunity to avenge themselves. No matter how hard the great priest Benka tried, he couldn't suppress the hatred, and the war escalated...

In the end, it almost evolved into the eight major tribes on the entire Brahman giant island, split into two factions, and fought with each other.

And after the war lasted fifteen days, Ruo Lin, who had already led the fleet away, suddenly led her huge fleet and killed a carbine! .

It turned out that Ruolin had never left. After she calculated everything, she left Brahman Island with her fleet, circled around the surrounding sea area, stayed on a nearby island to recuperate, and even wiped out two a small tribe. Wait until the two sides have almost played. Ruolin led the fleet to kill and came back.

The huge fleet did not directly participate in the war between the two sides, but Ruolin repeated her old trick, mobilizing all the combat personnel in the fleet, leaving only the sailors who could barely maintain the fleet, and then taking advantage of the weakness of the opponent's sea defense , bypassed to the back of Brahman Island, and directly raided the hometowns of the two battle faction tribes!

With 80 large ships, Ruolin has gathered a total of 1,000 subordinates who can go to battle, relying on the innate advantage of sneak attack, coupled with strong combat strength and superior weapons and equipment. Moreover, most of the young and strong soldiers of the two tribes who were fighting the main faction were mobilized to the capital of the United Kingdom to fight the civil war, and the forces left behind were inevitably weakened. Ruolin made full use of these advantages, and ended up winning the battle! ! A thousand people defeated the tens of thousands of left behind soldiers on the other side, and then successfully took down their hometown. Ruolin didn't want to kill more people, she still followed the old method and set fire wantonly, burning the base camps of these two tribes into scorched earth. After that, the old, weak, sick and disabled were allowed to escape, and Ruolin didn't chase after them either.

As a result, the news from the rear spread to the front. The soldiers of the main combat faction got the news that their hometown was copied, and their morale immediately fell to the bottom. Two chiefs also died in battle and had their heads beheaded.

In this battle, Ruolin cleverly provoked a civil war between the two sides, and cleared the Chinese War faction in the Nanyang United Kingdom, so that there was no voice that dared to oppose in the patriarchal meeting. and. After the two tribes were wiped out, the land and population of those two tribes were also divided up by other tribes. With benefits, naturally there would be no voices of opposition. Even some tribes still have some complaints in their hearts. But seeing the end of the opponents. They didn't even dare to speak.

In the end, the chief priest, Lao Benka, passed a decision at the patriarchal meeting to pay the ransom and welcome back Little Rufik (their future king).

Next, there will be negotiations on the number of ransoms. Ruolin has the upper hand. He didn't give in at all, causing the Nanyang people to bleed severely. Eighty big ships, first evacuate all the treasury of the United Kingdom! Then there was a tribe-by-tribe apportionment. In the end, Ruolin searched for three months and squeezed out the last drop of oil and water from the Nanyang people on Brahman Island! But still not reconciled, he sent people to take boats to the surrounding islands, and searched tribe by tribe.

at last. The huge fleet of eighty sea-going ships returned with a full load.

This time and again. It took a year!

And on Brahman Island in Nanyang, those Nanyang people who were badly beaten by Ruolin. Then give it to the female knight from Roland Continent. A series of nicknames: female butcher, female executioner... how much money do you have now? Du Wei laughed.

Ruolin thought for a while: My lord, Nanyang is rich in gold and precious stones, as well as ivory and spices. These things are all rare and valuable things on our mainland. The 80 big ships I brought back, I calculated carefully on the way After a while, if you sell all these things and get the numbers...

Ruolin seemed to ponder for a while: Based on the annual financial revenue of our Roland Empire as 60 million gold coins, the windfall we made this time may be worth the total financial revenue of the empire for five or six years!

The total financial revenue of the empire in five or six years, even though Du Wei had already made mental preparations in his heart, when he heard the figure, he couldn't help but gasped: So much?!

Ruolin nodded, but then the female knight smiled: However, the matter is not over yet. My lord, in the fleet I brought back this time, I also brought a few from the United Kingdom of South Seas. Messenger, they asked to see you. Well, when I was on Brahman Island, the high priest, Old Benka, introduced my background in order to convince these people. The master behind me is you, Duke Tulip of the Empire, The old card also said that you are the first-class dignitaries in the empire. You are under one person and above ten thousand people. You are the only person who can most influence the emperor. These Nanyang people were frightened by us. The servants sent this time came to seek peace and surrender, and they asked the Roland Empire to stop their aggression against them, and in exchange, they were willing to pay a certain amount of wealth every year in exchange for peace.

Du Wei's eyes lit up, and he glanced at Ruo Lin: You promised them?

Ruolin immediately shook her head solemnly: Of course not! My lord, I am just your subordinate. How can I be the one to decide on such a big matter? Ruolin will only obey your lord's orders. Of course, you should be responsible for these important matters. It's up to you to decide. After a pause, Ruolin breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the satisfied smile on Du Wei's face, and said, However, in my opinion, you might as well agree to them. After all... Speaking of which, I searched a little bit this time. It’s too harsh. Now Nanyang people, I’m afraid there’s really not much oil and water left. It’s conservatively estimated that within ten years, they won’t be able to regain their vitality. Even if the empire launches any expeditions, I’m afraid they won’t be able to extract anything from them.”

Du Wei's face was serious, he closed his eyes and thought about it for a while, and then he made a decision in his heart.

He stood up, looked at Ruolin, and said solemnly: Ruolin, you have done a good job this time, very well, and I am very satisfied! From now on, you don't have to stay at sea anymore. After this time, you Follow me back to the northwest and serve in the army of the Tulip family! Hehe! Unexpectedly, you are very talented in leading the army. Since you have made great contributions this time, I will not treat you badly. Bring thousands of soldiers... Don't be underestimated, there will be a big war coming soon, as long as you do a good job, you will be the first female general under my command in the future

Ruolin immediately took two steps back, kneeling on the ground with one knee, a solemn knightly etiquette.

Du Wei glanced at her, and continued: Also, you also make a list of the warriors who died in Nanyang with you this time, and the pensions of their families... all will be paid out at ten times!

At this point, everything has been reported. Ruolin looked quite tired after a long journey. Du Wei was about to let her go down to rest, but Ruolin suddenly remembered something: My lord, I came back from Nanyang this time. I brought something. It is said that this thing was left by the gods in the ancient temple. After the temple was destroyed by the mountain fire, the descendants of those gods wandered in the world and brought this thing down. There is still an original original at the earliest. In Fei Teng uploaded to the treasury of the United Kingdom, those noble chiefs later thought that these were auspicious things left by the gods, and they also copied a set for themselves. But... these things, no one knows that they are used for What are you doing? My lord, you told me to pay more attention when encountering some strange things this time, so after I found out that this thing exists, those clan stations saw that I was interested, so they took out a set. Let me bring it back.

After finishing speaking, Ruolin went out immediately, and a moment later, she brought in a long wooden box from her bag. It was solemnly placed in front of Du Wei.

Oh? Left by the gods? Du Wei muttered in his heart. Could it be something left by Aragorn again?

He took a deep breath, opened the box with a solemn face, took a look inside, and immediately turned his face, as if someone suddenly stuffed seven or eight eggs into Du Wei's mouth.

Du Wei stared at the things in the box dumbfounded, and the expression on his face didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

This... is this thing? He squeezed out the words.

Ruolin was curious: This is... Yi? My lord, it seems that you recognize it?

Du Wei stretched out his hand and stroked the neat rows of things in the box.

10,000, 90,000, eight handles, two... the wind from southeast to northwest...

Damn, this... this...

Isn't this shit just mahjong! !

Suddenly, a picture flashed in my mind: Thousands of years ago, in the mountain temple on Brahman Island, countless aborigines at the foot of the mountain prostrated and worshiped in the direction of the temple, and in the temple, Aragon was holding a cigarette in his mouth, and My own disciples of the gods sat at a table, and after drawing a card, they shouted: Draw yourself! You're stupid!!

Du Wei: ...
