"After the news of the fall of Meereen reached Yuankai, you should have come to me immediately. After all, we have a contract.
Even if your leader had unrealistic fantasies and wanted to make one last gamble, after more than 20,000 soldiers were ambushed by me outside the city, the fantasy should have been shattered, right?
My request is not high. The Wind Blowing Group will turn against the Gith people and help me take down Yuankai. Then you will leave with the commission promised by the Gith people and get a promise from me.
To be honest, I really can't guess what your leader is thinking. "Danny shook her head and said in a helpless tone.
The Wind Blowing Group with 2,000 soldiers was qualified to negotiate with her. That was right.
But 2,000 soldiers could not change the situation of the entire battlefield. The price she gave was absolutely fair.
"Grazidan suddenly wanted to pull us to break out of the encirclement and disrupted the leader's plan." Danzo sighed.
"Well, even if the plan was disrupted, the Gith people had all entered the city. Even if you found out that you were tricked, why did you run away?
Do you know how many people died the night before?
Because of your sudden escape, nearly eight hundred mercenaries died in the chaos. Your Wind Blowing Group accounted for 90% of the deaths, and only one Gith person died. That's right, only one Sage Lord! "Danny sneered.
"No, impossible!" Kago struggled and shouted.
"What's impossible about that? The Gith people were already surrounded and there was no way to escape. The people who rioted were all from your Wind Blowing Group. Even if I had no malice towards the Wind Blowing Group, I had no choice in that situation! "Danny said lightly.
"It was me, I … I killed those brothers." Danzo's voice trembled, and two clear water marks were drawn on his dirty old face.
"Why didn't you slaughter the Gith people and the mercenaries who entered the trap?" Kago glared at Danny and asked.
He was extremely unbalanced. The Wind Blowing Group had succeeded in discovering this woman's trick, but they were the ones who suffered the greatest loss.
This was unfair!
If … if this woman killed all the Gith cavalry that entered the city, then their escape would be meaningful!
"Hehe, in your heart, what kind of person am I? A monster who kills for pleasure? Isn't it good to keep the mercenaries for ransom? The Guise soldiers were demoted to coolies to plant wheat for me. Isn't the bread they make delicious? "
"Sigh, our pride has harmed the bragging group! Perhaps in the depths of our hearts, we always thought that Her Majesty the Queen was bound to lose, and that the losers were not worthy of our attention, much less our allegiance.
Subconsciously, we even arrogantly believed that we could decide Her Majesty's fate … "Danzo laughed bitterly.
Now that his thoughts had jumped out of the chessboard and looked at the actions of the Wind Blowing Group as a bystander, he suddenly discovered an extremely terrifying thing: Dragon Queen had three dragons, more than ten thousand Unsullied, and tens of thousands of Mother Of Dragons' guards who had been training for half a year. She herself also had wisdom that surpassed mortals. Ever since she was born, she had never lost a battle … But whether it was the leader or the group's officers, in the depths of their hearts, they all looked down on her, thinking that she was just a stupid little girl who had gotten lucky.
If he wasn't stupid, would he have thought of freeing the slaves? If she wasn't stupid, would she make an enemy of the entire world for someone who had nothing to do with her? If she wasn't stupid, would she have led fifty thousand soldiers to attack Yuankai?
Almost everyone was saying that it was a pity for the Dragon Queen. Even if she could win countless times, she would end up in a miserable state sooner or later.
But the problem was that she had always been the victor, and the Wind Blowing Group had no right to look down on a giant who was taller, smarter, and stronger than them.
Every time the giant had good intentions, they would subconsciously think that she was weak.
The leader had always wanted to make the Dragon Queen take the blame for her, and he would reap the benefits without doing anything …
Sigh, he didn't know his place!
"If you don't have any ill intentions towards us, why did you send the Centaur Cavalry to hunt us down? Can't you let us leave? "Kago glared at the 'weak' Danzo, and roared angrily at Danny.
Danny looked at him with disdain as if she was looking at an idiot, and said, "Is there something wrong with your head? A group of crippled soldiers wandering in the heart of my rule, how can I just leave them be? What if you raid my manor and slaughter my people? Who can I reason with? "
"We just want to leave this stinking cesspool immediately," Kago shouted.
"Then you tell me. If you don't tell me, how can I know what you're thinking? Looking at the Wind Blowing Group's behavior, I thought you were all Gith's suicide squad, and wanted to fight me to the death! "
"Your Majesty, can you answer a few questions for me, so that I can understand how we lost the war?" Danzo looked at Danny with a longing gaze.
These words had touched her itch. If she didn't brag about her success, it would be like not returning home after riches.
"Hehe, it depends on the situation. I still want to try some of these schemes a few more times." Danny lifted her chin slightly, and said reservedly.
"Your Majesty, the soldiers you brought to Meereen were at most a few thousand. Why did almost everyone in Meereen think that you brought fifty thousand soldiers? And many people saw it with their own eyes. "Danzo asked.
"I liberated a large number of slaves along the way, and the soldiers were newly recruited." Danny said half of the truth.
In less than three days, it was already extremely difficult to travel 250 kilometers. How could there be time to liberate fifty thousand slaves?
The real reason was simple. When Danny took down Meereen, it was almost dusk. The fifty thousand cavalry outside the city was just an illusion created by a few thousand slaves riding horses and dragging branches behind them.
As for the fifty thousand soldiers who entered the city with torches after dark …
This time, Danny learned from Dong Zhuo, Boss Dong.
A thousand elites entered the city from the east gate with torches, so that the Gith people in the east could see.
The north city, which had no tall buildings, had long been under martial law. Another thousand people sneaked out of the city through the north gate in the dark. This cycle repeated dozens of times, and there were fifty thousand armored elite soldiers.
At that time, the lords of Meereen were scared out of their wits. They didn't dare to leave their pyramids at all, giving Danny precious time to expand the Mother Of Dragons' guards.
Danzo didn't know whether he believed it or not, and continued to ask, "How did Your Majesty hide the traces of the army's movements?"
"Send scouts to clear the main road."
Danzo smiled bitterly. This was obvious nonsense. Anyone with a little common sense would not believe it.
But they had already said in advance that they would have some reservations …
"I have now figured it out. You left almost forty thousand infantry and five thousand cavalry in Yuankai. The fifteen hundred Unsullied in the rear camp were just bait to lure us out.
But the rear camp was not the real ambush point. Because forty thousand people were too many, the rear camp could not hide them. Maybe you wanted to reduce the losses, so you separated the infantry and cavalry of the coalition army and ate them separately.
There was no doubt that the real killing point was in the front camp, which was already in ruins. We didn't expect it at all. After all, we just came from the front camp.
Without the protection of the infantry, the cavalry ran back and forth for nearly twenty kilometers. The warhorses also lost their momentum and could only be trapped to death.
It was true that there were only a few thousand cavalry in the rear camp. The infantry in the ravines on both sides of the camp was just a cover.
There might be no one in the rear at all. As for the rumbling of horse hooves further behind, it was just a few dozen centaurs driving the horses.
Oh, there were branches behind the horses' tails. A Gith scout saw it and told us the next day when he met us. "
Dani nodded and said with a smile, "You guessed right. I didn't want to make it so troublesome, but as you said, forty thousand soldiers were too many to hide in the rear camp. "
Danzo's eyes flashed and asked, "The key is, where did you hide the forty thousand ambushers?"
As mentioned before, the Gith people were not stupid. When they left the city to attack the rear camp, there were hundreds of scouts who investigated the territory twenty to thirty kilometers around the camp.
Perhaps the three thousand cavalry led by Danny and a few thousand civilians disguised as the main force could be squeezed in the rear camp, but where did the forty thousand infantry that set up the real ambush point in the front camp come from?
If Danny's forty thousand infantry were hiding thirty kilometers away, it would definitely be too late to stop the cavalry team that fled back.
Under normal circumstances, thirty kilometers was enough for a large force to walk for a day or two!
Danny spat out three words with a gloomy face. "Emerald Lake!"
"Emerald Lake?!" Danzo and Kago's expressions changed wildly. There was relief and shock.
Five kilometers north of Yuankai, there was a beautiful lake that looked like a piece of jade embedded in the earth. Therefore, it was called "Emerald Lake" by the people of Yuankai.
The nobles of Gith often took their families there to hike, row boats, swim in the lake, and hunt in the nearby forest.
However, in order to kill the Dragon Queen who had fifty thousand troops and three dragons, the Virtuous Lords of Yuankai sank the corpses of ten thousand slaves in the Emerald Lake.
The manors on the Great Plains of Yuankai were burned, and the wells within twenty kilometers of the outskirts of Yuankai were blocked.
The fifty thousand troops ran for 600 kilometers and were already exhausted. Even if ordinary generals suspected that there was a problem with the Emerald Lake, they would be careful and vigilant while taking water from the lake.
The Gith people also deliberately threw a lot of horse dung and sewage into the lake, meaning "we have polluted the water source", so that they could hide the real killer move — ten thousand corpses.
In the end, it was the first time in this world that a disease was caused by stuffing corpses into the lake — a tactic created by the ruthless Virtuous Lord.
Moreover, there was a process for the corpses to rot. In the first half of the month, the lake was still beautiful, and the lake water was like a mirror. However, invisible germs had already bred and the lake water was polluted.
The thought of fifty thousand troops eating, sleeping, and training around a pit of ten thousand people without knowing anything was terrifying.
The Virtuous Lords were also afraid. Regardless of whether it was the East or the West, the ancients were extremely afraid of diseases, so the scouts did not dare to enter that area.
The Emerald Lake was only three kilometers away from the front camp!
"You're not afraid of the disease?" Danzo asked in disbelief.
"Hmph, of course I'm afraid. I'm scared to death. I came to Yuankai in the afternoon, and that night, I built the camp and dug the wells. The next morning, I arranged for twenty thousand soldiers to go into the lake and fish up the corpses that had been soaked for two days, "Danny said coldly.
Danzo suddenly understood. "We also noticed the scene of you burning the corpses. At that time, we only thought that the corpses came from the corpse forest on the main road. It turns out that you mixed the corpses in the lake with them and burned them together …"
At the same time, this sword poet also understood something. The smoke that he and Zidane saw at the camp that day was most likely real. At that time, there were really forty to fifty thousand people stationed at the camp.
Later, when the news of Meereen's fall came, they naturally thought that the front and middle camps were empty. The other party also deliberately piled up scarecrows in the camp, making them even more convinced that they had fallen for the "empty city strategy".
Yes, at that time, the Prince in Rags and he were amazed by the Dragon Queen's "empty city strategy" and thought that it was the greatest tactical innovation in the Ursos continent in the past thousand years.
Uh, there had never been an empty city strategy in this world.
However, the other party was no longer satisfied with using the empty city strategy to deceive the pitiful people of the other world. The Dragon Queen had surpassed the empty city strategy.
The "empty city strategy" that annoyed and secretly impressed the Guise Coalition Army was a fake. More than forty thousand soldiers were lying in ambush!
The war had ended for a few days, but the dignified God of War Graz 'dan and the Prince in Rags, who had fought for a lifetime, still did not understand how they had lost.
So miserable, so pitiful!
Danzo's face was ashen, and he looked extremely depressed.
"How did you know that there were corpses in the lake?" Kago could not help but ask.
"Do you think I'm so stupid that I don't know how to spread spies in Yuankai? To tell you the truth, I have spies in Yuankai, Meereen, New Guise, Queers, Volantis, and even Pentos and Braavos thousands of miles away, "Danny boasted with a cold face.
