Chapter 220: The Eagle Empire's Ambition
Shen Lang didn't expect that his five wives were so fast. He wanted to play with the Eagle Empire's fleet for a while, but before he could make a move, all the fleets were sunk, and four fifth-rate masters of the Eagle Empire were captured.
After questioning them, Shen Lang felt a little heavy .
Because the Eagle Empire is coming, their goal is very simple, which is to conquer this continent, and they are almost sending half of the country's military forces. They are just advance troops, and hundreds of giant sailing ships will arrive one after another.
There are only a few ships carrying the advance troops, and there are more than a dozen fifth-rate masters, hundreds of sixth-rate masters, and the seventh- and eighth-rate masters are just ordinary crew members. The level of warriors alone is enough to make one's scalp tingle.
If the real follow-up troops arrive, their strength will probably reach a jaw-dropping level. At least according to the current strength of the Huaxia Empire, it will probably be impossible to resist!
All of this is only half of the Eagle Empire's military strength. If they were to come out in full force, this entire continent would probably be filled with eagle flags.
The five ladies were also very worried. The strength currently displayed by the Eagle Empire was too terrifying. Fifth-rate masters were top masters in the Huaxia Empire and the Nanyue Empire, and were very rare, but in the Eagle Empire they were only captains.
Shen Lang discussed with the five ladies, changed their clothes, and boarded a plane to leave the paradise directly. Of course, Chen Yi followed him. This master who did not know his own limits was very happy.
Because he can find some real opponents who can show his true strength. As for the survival of the empire, it has nothing to do with him.
In his words, he has seen dynasties change and it has faded.
They first returned to the imperial capital of the Nanyue Empire. Wanyan Ruyu went to see her father. Shen Lang left the four wives in the imperial capital and took Chen Yi on a plane to the southern city of Daping.
Half a day later, Shen Lang arrived at the South City of Daping and met Zhu Chenluo.
What surprised Shen Lang was that Zhu Chenluo was actually very excited after hearing the news, which made Shen Lang very puzzled.
People are coming to beat you up, why are you so happy here?
Zhu Chenluo smiled mysteriously and did not speak. Instead, he talked to Shen Lang about what had happened in the Chinese Empire in the past few months.
As a result, after Shen Lang heard this, he took a breath of cold air!
Sure enough, what Shen Lang expected finally happened.
The Eighth Prince rebelled!
Fifteen days ago, a group of princes headed by Prince Rong launched a mutiny, immediately took control of the garrison of Yancheng, the capital of the Huaxia Empire, and surrounded the imperial city. Emperor Zhu Hongwu was not in a hurry and directly displayed his hidden forces, defending the imperial city like an iron wall, so those outside could come in, and of course those inside could not get out.
It's OK for a short time, but the imperial city can't bear it for a long time. After all, people need to eat, drink, defecate and urinate, and they need supplies. The Eighth King directly cut off the supply. It's only a matter of time to break through the imperial city, so they are not in a hurry.
As for the Sakura Empire, it is still dormant and there is no movement!
Shen Lang asked Zhu Chenluo about his current plan, and Zhu Chenluo said that he would keep his troops in place for now. Although he now has his own power and strength, compared with the Eight Kings who have been planning for a long time, it is probably still like an egg hitting a rock.
When the Eighth Prince and the Emperor were fighting to the death, he was waiting for an opportunity to take action. As for whether to quell the Rebellion of the Eighth Prince or replace him, Zhu Chenluo did not say.
But Shen Lang is not a fool. He can see at a glance that Zhu Chenluo intends to take advantage of the situation and easily seize the world!
In the evening, Zhu Chenluo hosted a banquet for Shen Lang and Chen Yi. They talked a lot until late at night. Chen Yi left first, leaving only Zhu Chenluo and Shen Lang.
"Now I understand that you are the real conspirator!" Shen Lang said after drinking a glass of wine.
Shen Lang went through the whole process from the beginning, from meeting Zhu Chenluo to Qingfeng Martial Arts Academy, to Jiangxin City, to suppressing the rebellion, entering the imperial capital to be conferred a title, and then to Dapingnan City to become the King of Pingnan. This series of changes seemed to be part of Zhu Chenluo's plan.
From staying away from fights and eliminating the emperor's vigilance, to pacifying the Nanyue Empire and obtaining a fiefdom to cultivate his own strength, he watches the fire from the other side of the river, waits for the opportunity, and seizes the world in one fell swoop!
What a big chess game!
Shen Lang had unknowingly become Zhu Chenluo's pawn.
Zhu Chenluo smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "I had no choice but to do this, but Brother Lang, don't worry. You and I have always been brothers, through thick and thin. No matter what time it is, I am still Chen Luo, the Chen Luo from Yucai Academy who only knows how to pick up girls!"
Shen Lang looked at Zhu Chenluo and thought to himself that since you can say that, you are definitely not the Chen Luo who only knew how to pick up girls and wanted to stay away from the imperial capital.
However, Shen Lang did not expose her, and smiled: "I feel much better after hearing your words!"
"What are you going to do next?" Shen Lang asked, "Just keep waiting?"
"Um!"
Zhu Chenluo nodded: "In ten days at most, the imperial capital will be breached, and only then will I take action!"
"It's a good start!"
" The is all from the inside. Except for the Imperial Capital, all the information has been blocked. As for Jingyan City, many people don't know that such a big thing has happened, not to mention the entire Huaxia Empire!"
Zhu Chenluo said: "If I raise an army and return to the court now, I'm afraid I will be the one who rebelled!"
"When the imperial capital is conquered and the emperor is replaced, it will be a good opportunity for me to send troops. The common people of the world and the generals of each city will support me, and only then will I have a chance of success!"
Shen Lang pondered for a moment. What Zhu Chenluo said did make sense, but what Shen Lang was really worried about was not this, but the Sakura Empire that had been lying dormant!
So many people from the Sakura Empire have infiltrated the imperial capital, but nothing has been done about something like the Eight Kings Rebellion. This is what is worrying!
If we wait until Zhu Chenluo and the Eighth King are fighting to the death before taking action, I'm afraid the Chinese Empire will have to change dynasties!
The Sakura Empire has been patient for hundreds of years and has come to this point with great deliberation. I'm afraid it has been waiting for this opportunity and will definitely not miss it!
"If the Sakura Empire makes any move, you must think of a good countermeasure!" Shen Lang expressed his concerns.
Zhu Chenluo sighed after hearing this: "We can only deal with the Eight Kings Rebellion after we solve it, and then we can deal with the Sakura Empire!"
"To fight foreign enemies, we must first stabilize the country!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Lang glanced at Zhu Chenluo and said nothing. The two of them drank a few more glasses and went back to rest.
The next morning, Shen Lang took Chen Yi and flew back to the Nanyue Empire.
"What is your father's attitude now?" Shen Lang spoke directly as he sat down.
Wanyan Ruyu said in a deep voice.
"Protect yourself!"
