Chapter 116 This plot looks familiar
Erin didn't stop until she said she was thirsty.
"Sir, how do you plan to help Longship Castle?" Erin still asked with a humble attitude.
Li Qi thought for a while.
The plot looks familiar.
How many historical figures have engaged in uprisings on earth? How many others are successful?
During the chat with Irene, he discovered that Vodu Eighteen had almost no inevitable factors for the success of the uprising.
The background of excessive taxes and poor livelihood for the people?
No, the war had just ended, people were living a pretty good life, everyone had a beautiful vision for the future, and no one wanted to go to war.
Orthodox bloodline? Legal support?
Let's not talk about whether what Baroness Waudou has in her stomach is true or false. If an illegitimate child dares to recruit soldiers under the banner of the banner, it violates the laws of the kingdom. An illegitimate child does not even deserve to have a surname, let alone the right to inheritance.
The only thing that would attract people to him was the return of the land to the farmers.
Maybe people just farmed in their own fields before, but the army of Vodu Eighteen swept in and offered huge benefits such as "returning the land". Farmers, whether active or passive, would become one of them.
But similarly, Wodu Eighteen will never be able to gain the support of the aristocracy.
The nobles who secretly supported him were also waiting for the benefits to be obtained, and then they were ready to kill the donkey.
The team was destined to fail, but there was only one question, would it fail after the Longship Castle was breached, or before.
Thinking of this, Li Qi thought about how he could use the porcupine leader's heroic flag when the opponent still had a breath left.
When it comes to fighting, don’t fight if you can’t help it.
It can be said that Wodu Shiba was able to pull up a team of 20,000 people, which was a blessing from the four gods. Otherwise, he would have been like the seventeen seniors before him, fighting in a small way, and finally being caught and hanged. .
Li Qi said: "Bring Mr. Crow Camel!"
"Yes!"
Soon, Crowe Camel arrived drunk.
When Yilin saw this person, her expression suddenly turned ugly.
The Crow Camel standing next to her is a typical useless aristocratic young man. He drinks and brags every day, but he doesn't know how to fight. He doesn't understand military affairs. He may not even know how to kill with weapons. He was just born into a noble family. Just the lucky guy here.
"Hiccup, good day, sir!" Crow Camel said unsteadily.
In the Porcupine Territory, Li Qi didn't need Crow Camel to do anything for him, and Crow Camel was happy to be a waste, relying on his noble status to eat and drink in the tavern every day. Li Qi didn't say anything, and Grant I don't dare to care, after all, this is a noble.
Li Qi leaned forward slightly and looked at him: "Crow, you once said you were willing to be loyal to me, even willing to give your life, do you remember?"
"Always remember, my lord!" Crow Camel said immediately and affirmatively.
"very good"
Li Qi nodded with satisfaction: "I need you to go to Shuijian now."
"Water Stream Land?" Crowe Camel was half awake from his wine. How chaotic the land there was was discussed every day in the tavern.
Irene also wanted to talk and asked a drunkard to go to Longship Castle. Is this the help that Baron Porcupine said? This is just an ordinary drunkard, and it's too perfunctory.
"Yes," Li Qi said with certainty, "I hope you can find the illegitimate son of Baron Wodu, um... Wodu, yes, Wodu eighteen, and then swear allegiance to him."
Crowe Camel suddenly woke up from the wine, knelt on one knee and said in a panic: "Sir, my loyalty to you is proved by all gods. I have sworn an oath and will never betray my oath."
Erin was also stunned. This development was wrong. Why was Crow Camel allowed to defect to Vodu Eighteen? Shouldn't he be allowed to go to Longship Castle?
Sending his men to help the enemies of Longship Keep before his very eyes?
What did he say wrongly to make Baron Porcupine unhappy?
The handsome Porcupine Baron looks very kind, he shouldn't be that kind of person, right?
Yilin asked herself three times in an instant.
"This is my order," Li Qi said seriously: "I need you to use your talents, go to Wodu Eighteen to display all your abilities, show your strengths, and let him reuse you."
Yilin suddenly realized: "It turned out to be an internal attack."
It is indeed feasible to place a person next to Wodu Shiba and then wait for an opportunity to kill him.
But the question is, does this drunken aristocratic young man have that ability?
Moreover, assassinating a person suspected of being the illegitimate son of Baron Waudou would pose a huge problem.
Or, let this person sneak in and steal important intelligence information. The Wodu Eighteen are currently in the limelight. They rely on the tactics of a sea of people to fight, and then "return the fields" as a gimmick. Many villages surrendered, and some even really The farmers in the crushed villages overthrew the nobles above them and took the initiative to join them. Even if Crowe could steal the information, it would be of no use as he would have no soldiers to fight.
"My, advantages?" Crowe Camel was stunned.
His advantages are, first, he can drink, second, he is good at chatting, third, he understands aristocratic etiquette and often uses this to sleep with business ladies, and fourth, he is a noble.
It can probably be summed up in one point.
A useless aristocratic young man who knows how to eat, drink and have fun.
Is this an advantage? Letting him infiltrate Wodu Shiba's side is no different from sending him to death.
"Yes" Crowe still received the order respectfully, he had no choice.
Because he was also sure that Li Qi asked him to break into the enemy and steal information.
After leaving the Porcupine Territory, he will face Mama City, and those desert bandits will not let him go.
"Miss Irene," Li Qi said to the messenger: "You can go back to Longship Castle. By the way, please inform Baroness Wodu that we can communicate through letters. Porcupine Castle will do its best to help Longship Castle. Justice will prevail. "
"...Thank you." The corners of Erin's mouth twitched.
It sounds like a lot of manpower and financial resources were spent on Porcupine Castle, but in fact only one drunk drunkard was sent.
Moreover, she felt that Li Qi's thinking was too simple. Although Wodu Shiba was a fake illegitimate son, he could not easily accept a nobleman to defect to him.
The two left the porcupine collar one after the other.
In fact, Yilin guessed right. Li Qi gave Crow Camel a narrow escape mission. It would be great if Crow Camel could be scared and run away.
Since this guy came to the Porcupine Territory, he hasn't been paid for meals and has become drunk and crazy. However, as a noble, Li Qi can't kill him, which has caused him a lot of headaches.
Especially for such a "talent", he can't do anything well.
Li Qi couldn't let the person who defected to him go into the dungeon, so he could only let him hang out in the tavern every day.
Now would be the best time to find an opportunity and kick him out quickly.
Regarding the slave issue, he could wait until Wodu 18 was overthrown and then take back the slaves, or he could wait until Longship Castle defeated Wodu 18 before taking back the slaves.
The only problem is that "covered with thorns", Li Qi's silence this time is likely to cause some trouble and affect the family's reputation.
Nobles must safeguard their honor and must fight back with swords when provoked.
Like a sharp blade, I already want to draw my sword and rush over to fight to the death.
He couldn't take care of 20,000 people, but killing one Wodu Eighteen was not a big problem. It only exposed the existence of the ghoul. He was very reluctant. This would attract too much attention, and the porcupine collar was not enough to block these lines of sight.
He needs to make Wodu Eighteen pay the price directly, just for the glory of the family.
During the night, the messenger Irene rode away from the Porcupine Territory.
