"Am I right? This Chen Xing is Chen Erliu, the target of our defeat?"
"What is the target of breaking the army? He is the Blue City Sex Demon!"
"I have said before that this person is unreliable. Do you think I was right? He ran to the other side of the river within two days, betraying his country and seeking glory!"
"What kind of future can a guy get by climbing into a woman's bed?"
"Traitor, it's useless for me to support him like this!"
"If you don't act as a good commander here, you have to go to the other side and be a gigolo."
"He is also a pretty boy here, he just has a different master to lick."
"What a piece of trash!"
"Trash is better than a traitor!"
"Oh, to be honest, I'm quite envious."
"Yes, I also want to be a pretty girl like this. Princess of the North, Da Bichi, who is not the top beauty in the world."
"If being a pretty boy can lead me to the position of commander-in-chief, I would also like to do it."
In the streets and alleys of the Red Dragon Principality, people were talking a lot. Some cursed the traitors, some despised and ridiculed them, and some expressed envy.
At this time, there were even more curses in the Thousand Candle Hall of the Red Castle, and the atmosphere was very exciting.
"Asshole! Scumbag!"
"Reptile! Dead dog! Rotten man!"
"Damn tunnel rats! Stinky garbage!"
"I'm so angry, so angry!"
"Uuuuuuuuuah, I'm so angry, I'm going to be so angry!"
"My chest hurts so much, wuwuwu, I want to bite him to death, wuwuwu..."
Aaliyah was crying and cursing at the same time. She said that her whole body was on fire due to excitement, and she transformed into the true form of Balrog and wanted to rush to the other side of the river to fight for her life.
"Princess, don't want it!" "It's not worth it for that bastard!"
Ye Yang Bailiu and Lacey held her on the left and right, preventing her from going out.
Ice Blue City has the Dragon Scale Guards and the Royal City Guards, the two most powerful troops in the Ambergris River. Once Aaliya goes deep alone, she is likely to be killed by Trilis and two forces.
Although Aaliyah's Legion of Destruction is known as the second in the world, Cuillis's Succubus Legion is not a vegetarian, and its own combat power is also very strong. Together with the Dragon Scale Guards and the Imperial City Guards, it can completely suppress Alia. elegant.
And doing so is tantamount to openly violating the king's declaration of "the king does not see the king", and it is easy to be attacked by other king-level groups, and it is not impossible to fall.
Once the Supreme Power is lost, the entire Northern Alliance will collapse.
After Ye Yang Bailiu and Lacey took turns persuading, Aaliya finally calmed down and stopped arguing to fight for her life.
Then the hall fell into silence, and the three women each had their own thoughts.
No one doubted the information provided by the mastermind of Mingwang. Chen Xing's detour to the northern wilderness to Ice Blue City was very consistent with the escape route of a high-ranking general who had rebelled against the country and surrendered to the enemy.
The operation was secret, deceptive, and obviously planned in advance, which in turn confirmed the authenticity of the information.
Aaliyah was very angry. On the one hand, she was angry with Chen Xing, and on the other hand, she was angry with herself. Originally, she just wanted to bully that guy and give herself some vent to make him stop taking her seriously and find his first love. But who would have thought that this guy was so mentally fragile that he was directly forced to rebel.
On the other side, Ye Yang Bailiu also regretted it so much that she killed her husband without any trouble. Although Chen Xing had some minor problems, he basically made no mistakes in the general direction. He worked hard, took care of his family, and did what a man should do. Now, it's good that they have forced the other party to run to the opposite side to become the commander. Not only do they lose an effective helper, but they also gain a powerful enemy.
The third person in the hall, Lacey Maris, felt more regret than the other two people combined.
She obviously wanted to kill the other party, but not only did the other party not die, but his status was higher than before. She simply stabbed herself in the heart with a knife.
Fetching water from a bamboo basket was in vain, which made her feel no regrets or pain, and she almost even had the intention of committing suicide.
However, the three present were all strong women with strong personalities and abilities. They quickly came out of the trough and did not continue to worry about gains and losses, but instead thought about the next emergency plan.
"Princess, please appoint me as the supreme commander of the expeditionary force."
After some consideration, Ye Yang Bailiu asked Aaliya to take over the expeditionary force.
She has participated in Chen Xing's military operations many times and is familiar with the generals of the expeditionary force. Among them, Xiang Caidi, the second-in-command of the expeditionary force, has been her good sister for many years and has cooperated with Huo Zui, Da Mao and others several times. Moreover, she also took over the command when Chen Xing was in coma last time. It can be said that she is the most suitable candidate in the entire Northern Alliance.
Although Lacey was very reluctant and had a face, she still did not object.
The best plan in her mind is naturally to disband the expeditionary force on the spot, organize the lower-level soldiers into the two Red Dragon Army Groups, and secretly/execute the mid-level and senior generals for treason.
But in this way, the Northern Alliance will lose an excellent unit that is well established and has experienced great wars.
Chen Xing's expeditionary army originally numbered 200,000 people, but about 120,000 died in the battle. Later, with the addition of new soldiers, it now numbered about 120,000.
Losing the expeditionary force was an extremely heavy blow to the Northern Alliance, so even though Lacey wanted to avoid future troubles forever, her reason was telling her that she couldn't do this.
Aaliyah agreed to Ye Yang Bailiu's request without much thought. It is indeed the most suitable plan for Ye Yang Bailiu to take over the expeditionary force.
More than ten hours later, Ye Yang Bailiu rushed to Silver Eagle Leader with the appointment letter. As soon as he got off the airship, he convened a meeting with the senior generals of the expeditionary force without stopping.
At this time, the interior of the expeditionary force was in chaos. People were panicked, confused and anxious. Even Lelionka, who had always had a good temper, couldn't help but curse.
The supreme commander's sudden betrayal was so embarrassing to the troops below that they almost wanted to die.
So what are they, rebels?
But all senior generals knew that Chen Xing could not take them away.
there are many reasons.
First, the composition of the expeditionary force is complex. More than one-third of the soldiers are locals of the Red Dragon Principality and have family members here. Even if they are killed, they will not be allowed to treason.
Secondly, 120,000 brothers from the expeditionary force were buried in the Red Dragon Principality. Once the troops rebelled, these brothers would become lonely ghosts, which was emotionally unacceptable.
Thirdly, although the main components of the expeditionary force are mercenaries from all over the world, those who come here all have dreams and pursuits, and all have a minimum sense of glory. They are the soldiers of the Northern Alliance who are receiving military pay from the Northern Alliance. They suddenly defect to the enemy country and turn around to attack their own people. This is unacceptable from the moral bottom line.
Fourth, there are more than 100,000 people in a mighty force. To say the least, even if everyone is willing to follow the boss and rebel, they cannot quietly move to the other side of the river. This is definitely an impossible task.
Based on the above four points, Chen Xing could only abandon the expeditionary force and surrender to the enemy alone to treason.
"Boss, what's going on? How can you say that rebellion means you're a traitor?" Huo Zui looked sad. Until now, he still hasn't calmed down. He feels like he's dreaming.
"Yes, does the high priest know what's going on?" Baron Prader, the commander of the left army, also asked.
"This is definitely the most incredible thing I have ever encountered in my life." Leliangka, the commander of the right army, couldn't help but said.
"Everyone, please be patient. The high priest will definitely give us a satisfactory explanation." Logistics officer Lu Shanhai advised.
Xiang Caidi and Jian Yue Canglian stood behind Ye Yang Bailiu without expressing their opinions. They had no other choice but to believe that their master had his own reasons. This thing is too unbelievable. A general abandoned his men and ran to the enemy. No matter how much they believed in it, there was no way to explain it to others.
"The matter has become very clear. Your former commander-in-chief betrayed the country and sought glory for his own selfish interests, and went to Ice Blue City to become the commander-in-chief." Ye Yang Bailiu's answer was simple. In the current situation, he can only tell the truth. Xing's identity as a traitor must be completely denied, otherwise the entire Northern Alliance will be in chaos.
"Impossible, our boss is not such a person!" Huo Zui stared with copper bell-like eyes. He never believed that Chen Xing would do such a thing.
"Yes, Mr. Chen has always attached great importance to reputation..." Baron Prader was also a little hard to accept.
Xiang Caidi also wanted to speak for Chen Xing, but after opening her mouth, she remained silent. For the sake of the expeditionary force, and even more so for Chen Xing, she must now fully support Ye Yang Bailiu.
Seeing Yue Canglian also remained silent, without saying a word.
Before the meeting, Ye Yang Bailiu approached the two of them and told them that if they didn't want Chen Xing's efforts to go to waste and be burdened with guilt for the rest of their lives, they must trust her and support her 100%.
The current expeditionary force can be said to be on the line between life and death.
Aaliya will never let the tiger go back to the mountain and let Chen Xing's old subordinates go to the south to seek refuge. If you can't use it for your own use, just destroy it where you are. What awaits them must be a comprehensive cleanup.
Today, only by remaining wholeheartedly in the Northern Alliance can we have a chance of survival and development.
As long as the green hills remain, there will be no need to worry about running out of firewood.
In Xiang Caidi's mind, Ye Yang Bailiu is a sister, and in Jian Yue Canglian's mind, Ye Yang Bailiu is his mistress, so it is not difficult for Ye Yang Bailiu to convince the two of them.
Next, Ye Yang Bailiu analyzed the stakes to everyone and assured them that even without Chen Xing, their ideal of establishing a country through mercenaries would continue to be supported by the northern princess.
Although it was still difficult for everyone to accept the fact that Chen Xing was treason, under the current situation, they had no more choices, and they quickly expressed their support for Ye Yang Bailiu to take over the entire army.
The takeover process went smoothly. When Chen Xing disappeared before, it was Ye Yang Bailiu who came to take charge of the overall situation. She knew the situation of the expeditionary army very well, and even many officers had received her treatment.
Ye Yang Bailiu first summoned the junior officers to make an announcement, and then arranged several dinner parties. Everyone gradually accepted the new commander, and the uneasy mood gradually eased.
The memory of the people is always short. Half a month later, the storm of the defection of the top commander of the expeditionary force gradually subsided, and no one discussed the matter anymore.
Everything is back on track and proceeding step by step.
The expeditionary force was also led by Ye Yang Bailiu, repairing equipment, recruiting new soldiers, and preparing for the next battle.
They still have a long way to go. Conquering the Principality of Silver Claw is just the starting point of the journey. They also have to participate in the entire northern battlefield to unify the north of the Ambergris River, and then go south to unify the whole country and exchange their military exploits for the capital to found the country.
On the other side of the Ambergris River, the first thing Chen Xing did when he became the commander-in-chief of Ice Blue City was to liquidate the treasury.
"Ten and hundreds of millions, hundreds of thousands, millions, tens of thousands, tens of thousands..."
Chen Xing counted the total funds in the treasury, somewhat in disbelief, "Sixty-three billion gold coins, this is too rich!"
Sixty-three billion gold coins, converted into the purchasing power of raw materials on earth, is sixty-three trillion gold coins and ten trillion U.S. dollars.
"etc……"
"Why is there a minus sign in front of it?"
Chen Xing rubbed his eyes and looked again and again to confirm whether he saw it correctly.
"Sir, you read that right, it is indeed a negative sign." The Finance Minister said with some embarrassment.
"Liabilities of 6.3 billion..." Chen Xing felt a little top-heavy.
"This actually doesn't matter. As long as the World Bank is not bankrupt, we can continue to borrow money." The Finance Minister explained. In fact, this is an old debt that has accumulated over the years. As long as the red country's fist is the strongest in the world, it can be in debt indefinitely until the end of the world.
Chen Xing was speechless. The most powerful country in the red earth world turned out to be a debt-ridden old man.
"Okay, just be direct, how much military spending do we have available?" Chen Xing said.
"Well..." the Minister of Finance took out a handkerchief and wiped his forehead, "Now the salaries of government employees are all borrowed from banks..."
"You mean there's not a penny left?" Chen Xing narrowed his eyes, a cold light blooming in his eyes.
The Minister of Finance was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat and said with a sad face, "Sir, there is nothing I can do..."
"But..." He changed the topic and whispered next to Chen Xing, "I know where the money is..."
Seeing the timid look of the Finance Minister, Chen Xing frowned, showed the Kingdom Ring in his hand, and scolded, "Speak louder!"
"Am I afraid that no one will hear me here?"
"Yes, yes, yes..." The Minister of Finance nodded, suppressing the fear in his heart, and said in a normal voice, "Black Prison Trial House, rich..."
"About how many?"
The Minister of Finance stretched out five fingers and two from the other hand, "At least 700 million
gold. "
"So many!" Chen Xing was shocked.
"How many companies have been copied? They are so fat." The Finance Minister sighed.
Chen Xing immediately dialed Guihu's video in front of the Minister of Finance.
"How much money does your Black Prison Trial House have on its account?" Chen Xing asked straight to the point.
Ghost Fox is the second inquisitor, so he must know it.
"Wait, let me check..." After a while, the ghost fox reported a number.
"Four hundred million? That's right?" Chen Xing confirmed again.
"Well, that's the amount in the account." Ghost Fox replied.
"Where are the remaining 300 million?" Chen Xing asked the Finance Minister after hanging up the phone.
"This..." the Finance Minister unconsciously lowered his voice, "I have secretly estimated it, and it is about 715 million. If it is not in the accounts of the trial house, then it is hidden by the chief judge."
"Damn it, this bitch is so greedy!" Chen Xing couldn't help but curse.
"Sir, please don't say it was me who leaked it," the Finance Minister said, wiping away cold sweat and trembling all over. He was obviously extremely afraid of A Qiaomu.
Chen Xing showed the kingdom ring again, "What are you afraid of? I'm here."
"Yes, yes, my lord is right."
About ten minutes later, there was a knock on the door of Guihu's office. After getting her consent, the other party opened the door and came in.
Unexpectedly, the visitor was Arqiao Mu. In the past, she would not have knocked on the door when she came in.
"Did you just check the trial office's account?" Aqiaomu asked straight to the point.
"Yes, your Excellency just asked me how much money I still have in my account." Chen Xing is now the commander-in-chief. Guihu felt that there was nothing to hide, so he said it directly.
Aqiaomu's face turned pale, and then he struggled, looking up at the ceiling, as if he had gone through a difficult psychological struggle, and finally took off his black watch and placed it on Guihu's desk.
"What's wrong?" Ghost Fox looked at Aqiaomu strangely.
"There are 250 million in my private account, all for some secret expenditures that cannot be transferred to the public account. Now transfer these funds back to the public account to avoid Mr. Chen's questioning."
Guihu was stunned for a while. She never thought that Aqiaomu had embezzled so much money, and part of it was through her hands, but she didn't feel any problem.
She quickly figured out that the problem lay with Zhang Chunmei. Zhang Chunmei was responsible for disposing of the property confiscated from the house.
But when the other party took it out at this time, he was still aware of the current affairs. Soon Guihu transferred the money from Aqiaomu's account to the public account of the trial office and reported it to Chen Xing.
Over there, Chen Xing got the news and told the Minister of Finance.
At this time, the Finance Minister finally realized how powerful the man in front of him was.
Just by checking the account, the female devil, who had turned the Ice Blue City upside down and made the nobles frightened, could spit out 250 million.
"She still has at least 60 million left on her."
Now the Finance Minister has no scruples at all and looks like a coward.
"How did you judge?" Chen Xing asked curiously.
"I have been the Finance Minister in Ice Blue City for twelve years. I know roughly how much money each family has." The Finance Minister said with a bit of pride.
"sure……"
Chen Xing laughed, and the Minister of Finance also laughed. The smiles between the two people actually smelled of collusion.
On the other side, in Guihu's office in the Black Prison Trial Hall, Aqiaomu sat down across from the desk.
"Ghost Fox, how do you think I've treated you over the past two years?" A Qiaomu asked in a heart-to-heart tone.
"You were very kind to me and gave me the status and strength I have today." Ghost Fox replied.
Aqiaomu smiled, grabbed Guihu's hand, and said sincerely, "Thank you, my good sister."
She continued, "As you know, your master and I have some misunderstandings..."
At this point, Aqiaomu stopped and looked into Ghost Fox's eyes, with pain in his eyes, "To be honest, it has not been easy for me these years..."
"I know." Ghost Fox nodded, expressing understanding.
"Good sister, if possible, I would like to ask you, please..." Ah Qiaomu begged, "Help me say something nice in front of your master, so that he will not care about this stupid woman like me..."
The reason why Aqiaomu came to beg the ghost fox was because Cuilis summoned her an hour ago.
Cuilisi first affirmed her contribution, saying that bringing Chen Xing to Ice Blue City was "the greatest contribution so far".
In other words, all the things she had done and the hard work she had put in were not as good as her bringing Chen Xing to Ice Blue City.
Because of this achievement, she can propose new rewards, and Trilis will try her best to satisfy her.
This looks like it's for a sweet date.
But in fact, there is a giant mace behind it.
Triris told her that as the leader of the Black Prison Guards, she must be willing to sacrifice her life for the commander at any time. Even if he is shattered to pieces, he cannot let the commander-in-chief scratch his skin.
That's right, that's what it means literally. Whenever Chen Xing scratches his skin, he will ask questions about her.
Now let alone killing Chen Xing, even if Chen Xing is slightly injured, it will be a disaster for her.
Ghost Fox glanced at Aqiaomu with some sympathy and said, "It depends on your own performance."
"In front of the master, I am just a humble maid, unable to influence the master's decision."
Then she seemed to remember something, and said, "By the way, I have something to ask you about, and you happen to be here, so I'll inform you in advance."
"The master will come to the trial center for inspection tomorrow. You should be prepared. Maybe you will satisfy the master and reduce some of your guilt."
"Okay, okay, I understand." Aqiaomu nodded obediently. His legs were weak and he could only stand up by supporting the table.
She knew that her nightmare was coming, and she also knew that Chen Xing would not let him go. All she wanted now was to alleviate a little pain and be satisfied if she could survive in a sane state.
