Odysseus came out of Agamemnon's barracks. For some reason, his heart was heavy.
Not only was it the conflict between Agamemnon and Achilles, it was also an instinctive feeling. He had been blessed by God for so many years, so he had naturally developed this instinct.
Odysseus walked out of the barracks and walked back. On the way back, he met Calchas.
Even though Odysseus did not like this Greek prophet who could see through everything, due to his heavy heart and the indistinct feeling in his heart, he felt that he should ask this prophet that he did not like.
Odysseus walked to Calchas and asked, "Respected prophet Calchas, do you think we can kill Paris now?"
Odysseus still maintained his sly and cunning personality. Even the question he asked Calchas was so vague and tactful.
A normal person who did not know the truth might really be tricked by him.
"The war has been going on for almost four years. There is too much blood and hatred. Greece and Troy cannot stop. Even if the culprit, Paris, is dead, they must continue to fight until one side defeats the other." Calchas was clear in his heart, but he did not want to tell the truth to Odysseus. Firstly, he did not like this cunning king. Secondly, even if he told the truth, Agamemnon would misunderstand and think that he was trying to scare him. If that was the case, he would offend Agamemnon again.
"Whether the prediction is right or not, crows are never likable."
Calchas did not want to offend Agamemnon because Agamemnon was the commander of the allied army. If the jealous Agamemnon targeted him, even the strongest hero, Achilles, might not be able to guarantee his safety.
Hearing Calchas's words, Odysseus felt a sense of comfort in his heart.
Yes, the war could only continue. There was no turning back, and Paris and Menelaus were slowly losing their death-immunity gold medals.
Killing Paris this time would not trigger any special interference from God.
Austin analyzed Agamemnon's words carefully. Everything was very natural and there were no flaws. Most importantly, Troy did not have a hero like Achilles. This time, he had seven to eight heroes. Even if they encountered the worst situation, they would be able to escape unscathed.
Austin felt like he had been worrying too much. He smiled and walked back to his barracks.
Looking at Austin's back as he left, Carcas shook his head and mumbled, "I saw a sea of blood. Unfortunately, even Athena could not ensure your victory this time. She could only ensure your safe retreat."
This time, Pei Zi Yun's plan to deal with the Greeks could be said to have gained the approval of the gods. Athena could not go against the will of the gods.
Even though Austin had Athena's protection, it was impossible for him to win this battle. He could only escape unscathed under Athena's protection.
No one heard Calchas's words, or rather, even if they were heard, no one would care. This was because Agamemnon needed this victory too much.
He had to use this victory to reestablish his authority. He had to let everyone know that even without Achilles, the Greek army could still win under Agamemnon's leadership.
Troy Secret Harbor
"Set sail." Pei Zi Yun gave the order. A battleship slowly left Troy's secret harbor.
This time, to lure the Greeks out, Pei Zi Yun used the fastest battleship as bait. He would be the bait himself.
"Will the Greeks really fall for it?" Aeneas stood beside Pei Zi Yun and asked.
Aeneas's worries were not without reason. This plan seemed simple.
"Of course." Pei Zi Yun said decisively. Seeing Aeneas's doubt, he clapped his hands and said, "Believe me, we will definitely win this time."
This strong confidence infected Aeneas, and it made him believe that they could really win this battle.
Looking at the azure blue sea, the cries of seagulls could be heard from time to time. Pei Zi Yun fell into deep thought. The reason why he had such strong confidence in winning was because he knew that the Greek army with Achilles was too strong. They had to be weakened in order to comply with Zeus's will.
Zeus did not want any side to be too strong in this battle of Troy. It would be best if both sides were evenly matched. That way, the heroes of humanity would be weakened to the greatest extent.
The appearance of Achilles had broken this balance. Now, the Greeks had overwhelming power over Troy. This was something Zeus did not want to see.
Even if Pei Zi Yun did not make a move to weaken the Greek army, Zeus was already planning to weaken the Greek army.
Pei Zi Yun wanted to use a strategy to weaken the Greek army. This was in line with Zeus's intentions. Pei Zi Yun's plan would be supported by the gods.
Secondly, Penthesilea had died at the hands of Achilles. If he used the excuse of avenging Penthesilea, it would be easy for him to get Ares's help.
Although Ares did not save Penthesilea's life, that was because Zeus had stopped him.
The hatred that Achilles had for killing Penthesilea had always been etched in his mind. Even towards the Greek army, Ares's heart was filled with anger.
Finally, Achilles, who had suffered great humiliation, had no choice but to retreat to the ship and not participate in the meeting of the princes. This was Achilles's temperament, and he had no other choice.
Since he had offended the commander of the allied army, Agamemnon, Achilles had no way of gaining a foothold in the princes' meeting. Only when the Greek army had suffered a serious setback would they be able to return with glory and glory.
Achilles would not make a move unless Agamemnon was willing to admit his mistake. This was obviously impossible.
There was only one possibility. The Greek army had suffered a huge setback. Only then would they be able to ask Achilles for help. This would mean that Agamemnon's authority had been swept away.
These three principles caused all the gods to help Pei Zi Yun achieve victory. With the help of all the gods, there was no reason for Pei Zi Yun not to achieve victory in this battle.
"Those who are good at fighting have no illustrious reputation. This is the peak of my strategy."
"It may seem simple, but everything is in line with the Dao. When the conditions are right, success will follow. Everything is in my hands."
"Even if it is the most realistic aspect, I have already let the Greeks know the number of my fleet. They even know that I had begged Aeneas to go with me. That is the most logical thing to do."
"This time, we must annihilate the entire Greek fleet."
The warship cut through the waves as it rushed towards the Amazon.
The Greeks had been monitoring the movements of Troy. When Pei Zi Yun's warship left the secret pier, he was discovered by the Greeks. They quickly sent the news back. The Greeks then sent a fleet of warships to ambush Pei Zi Yun along the route to the Amazon.
When Pei Zi Yun's warship passed by an island, more than ten Greek warships appeared in the distance. They surrounded Pei Zi Yun's warship.
Pei Zi Yun, who was standing on the deck of the warship, revealed a cold smile. "The fish has bitten the bait. You can reel in now."
"Men, escape in the direction we have set." The warship turned and headed in the direction they had set.
From the Greeks' point of view, this warship had seen more than ten warships lying in ambush. It had turned around and fled in a panic.
"Commander Orsikhoros, the enemy only has one warship." On the Greek warship, a soldier was reporting to Orsykoros the latest information he had.
"Oh, are you sure? Only one warship? "Orsikhoros asked again.
"Yes, we have searched the surrounding waters, but did not find any warships coming to meet this warship." Tolpalemos answered.
"What about news from the mainland?"
"When we were at sea, we received news that Paris begged Aeneas to go with him, but Hector did not participate."
At this time, even Odysseus said, "That is normal. Troy is completely dependent on Hector. He cannot leave Troy for long, and going to the Amazon and back would take a few months."
"In fact, I am already surprised that we managed to convince Aeneas to go with us."
When Orsikhoros heard this, the last of his doubts were dispelled, and he said excitedly, "Chase with all our might and intercept this warship."
In fact, Orsikros was also very cautious with his troops. Although he had more than ten warships ambushing an enemy warship this time, he still had to repeatedly confirm that it might not be a trap by the enemy. After confirming that there were no enemy warships in the nearby waters, he dispelled his last trace of doubt.
Orsikhoros believed that this was not a plot by the enemy, because if it was, the enemy would have the confidence to take down this warship in one fell swoop.
At this time, Pei Zi Yun's warship was fleeing. Because it was the fastest warship of Troy, it was difficult for the Greeks to catch up.
Along the way, Prince Paris's warship was fleeing with all its might, and the Greeks were chasing with all their might. It was only when they reached the island of Tenedos that the Greeks' warships caught up.
Facing the Greeks, Pei Zi Yun immediately abandoned his warship and 'fled' to the island.
From the perspective of the Greeks on the warships, Prince Paris had fled to this island in a panic, and when he saw that he was about to be caught, he abandoned his warship and fled to the island.
When the Greeks arrived at Pei Zi Yun's warship, they found a large amount of gold and bronze on it, but the most expensive part was the weapons and armor given by the gods.
Presumably, these were taken away by Paris. This was very reasonable. If the gold and bronze were lost, they could be found again, but if the weapons were lost, how could they be returned to the Amazons?
Orsikhoros immediately ordered, "Control this batch of gold and bronze, and continue to chase after Paris."
The order was passed down, and the Greeks were very happy. They felt that this mission was too simple and easy, and that they had obtained a large amount of gold and bronze. When the time came, there would be a lot of spoils of war.
Trepalemos, who had just set foot on the island of Tenedos, was very happy. He felt that Paris would not be able to escape even if he had wings.
As long as he could take him down, he would be able to make a great contribution. He raised his long sword and shouted, "Paris's idea is to use the island's terrain to go around in circles with us, so that he can get help from Troy. However, we cannot give him this opportunity. Chase after them and kill Paris and Aeneas."
The soldiers were very excited. Under Trepalemos' lead, they chased after Paris at full speed. To them, Paris was like a turtle in a jar.
