Chapter 166 Blackmail!!!

His own Demon Sword Guards showed great power in this battle. It can be said that they stabbed the Iron Eagle Army hard in the back. This knife stabbed nearly thirty Iron Eagle Army soldiers to death!

“Master, I didn’t expect you to actually win! You are too strong!”

Rhode was sitting in the hall, Xue Nan was rubbing his shoulders behind him, his little face turned red.

“Hahahaha, I told you that it will be fine if you believe me, don’t suffer any more casually in the future~”

Rhodes said sarcastically

“Master, you are teasing me again!”

Xue Nan pushed Rhodes gently, and the blush on his face became more intense.

Rhodes slowly closed his eyes. He has been very nervous these days and has hardly had a good rest.

“Lord, Commander Luo Bing has escorted Skele and Aksu to the door.”

The guard quickly walked in and informed Rhodes.

“Let them in!”

As soon as Rhode heard that, he lost all sleepiness and immediately gave the order.

Seeing that Rhode’s sleepiness was gone, Xue Nan stared in the direction of the door with resentment.

“yes!”

The guard saluted and then withdrew.

“Get in!”

I heard Luo Bing’s voice from all the way, and saw him escorting the two of them in.

“Kneel down!”

Luo Bing kicked the two people tied with ropes to the ground and asked them to kneel to Rhodes.

“Okay, you go to the side and stand. Rhodes waved his hand to Luo Bing,”

Yes!””

Luo Bing took the order and stepped aside respectfully.

“Aksu, Aksu, what should I say to you? I sent you away respectfully, but you came back to me and brought so many troops? You really know how to play!”

Rhodes said through gritted teeth.

Aksu’s face turned red. He had never suffered such injustice in his life. Maybe he did when he fell into the hands of the goblins, but he was not like this now. As a defeated general, as a Prisoner.

But Aksu didn’t dare to say anything. He saw the murderous look in Rhodes’ eyes. He was really afraid that Rhodes would take action directly.

“My lord, if you will release me, my father will gladly pay a ransom. Aksu said calmly. He did not choose to threaten or anything. From the actions of Rhodes daring to annihilate the Iron Eagle Army, we know that standing is not afraid of threats.

Aksu is greedy, but he is not stupid!

“oh?”

Rhode was a little interested.

“Don’t know what your value is to your father?”

Rhode asked pointedly.

“I am my father’s only son, and he dotes on me very much! Aksu said hurriedly. From what Rhodes said, he knew there was hope to save his life. The only thing left to do next was to see if the value was right.

“Please tell me first, how much money can your castle earn in a year?”

Rhodes asked directly.

Aksu was a little hesitant when he heard Rhodes’ question, but when he saw the look in Rhodes’ eyes, he still chose to say:”About more than 1,400 gold coins! Rhodes couldn’t help but gasped,”This castle is so powerful. He can only earn at most one gold coin every year after paying the wages of the army and workers.””

But the castle is hundreds of times bigger than him. You can imagine how rich Falcon City is.

But also, Falcon City’s army is more than the total number of villagers in Changkong Village plus the army, and such a huge army must They need a sufficient economy to be able to afford it.

And the most important thing is that they have their own caravan, while Changkong Village can only do business by relying on merchants passing by. The difference between the two is too big. He closed his eyes and tapped on his stool.

“Aksu, I want your father to pay a war indemnity of one thousand gold coins to redeem you and the remaining 13 Iron Eagle Army soldiers, and to give us a trade route map to the eastern border of our empire!”

Rhodes pondered for a moment and then said

“What!”

Aksu was shocked. Once the money was given to them, Falcon City would definitely be devastated.

“Why, do you think I need more?”

Rhodes glanced at him.

Aksu suddenly became honest and just looked at Rhodes with an ugly expression.

“You also want a trade route map. Do you want to form a caravan? Aksu asked.

Rhodes just looked at him with a slight mockery and said nothing.

Aksu stopped talking. He knew that he had asked a question.

“As for you, Skylar!”

Rhodes looked at Skyler, who was kneeling silently next to him, with a little anger on his face.

He still remembered this guy’s arrogant attitude before, and he even teased his maid in front of him!

“What do you think I should do with you!”

Rhodes said with a half-smile.

“Whether you want to kill or cut into pieces, it’s up to you!”

Skyle was unexpectedly brave and didn’t ask for mercy.

But it was also unexpected and reasonable. Skyle had offended Rhodes to death. He couldn’t beg for mercy here, and when Aksu was captured At that time, he chose to surrender, but Skyler was not strong enough to capture Aksu, and insisted on continuing to fight.

The situation at that time could be said to have put Aksu on the road to death. Skyler was destined to reach Falcon City. He was going to be tortured to death.

Therefore, he was actually helpless, but there was no other way. Now that it had happened, it was better to be brave and win the final dignity for himself than to beg for mercy and die in the end.

“Not bad, and very brave!”

Rhode clapped his hands to express his appreciation.

“However, you want dignity, but I won’t give it to you! Rhode snorted coldly,”

Luo Bing!””

Rhodes shouted

“exist! Luo

Bing responded.

“You go to those prisoners, pick one whose relatives are in Falcon City, let him go back, and let him convey all the conditions I just told to the Lord of Falcon City! Let him pay first and then release the people. Also, an army of more than ten people is not allowed to transport gold coins and trade route maps. If we find more than ten people, we will directly behead Aksu in public.”

Rhodes ordered.

Aksu was startled when he heard the beheading in public, trembling secretly. He only hoped that his father would not be so stupid.

“If there is no problem in the end, throw Skyler to them when you release them!”

Rhodes said harshly.

“Okay, that’s all, go deal with it!”

Rhodes waved his hand.

“yes!”

Luo Bing took the order, and then dragged the two of them out.

But Skyler was cursing along the way, and his face was full of despair.

“Damn you, I curse you to hell! You devil!”

Skyler’s voice kept echoing.

But Rhodes ignored his curse and just looked at the workers who were busy repairing the damaged wall.

“There is still a long way to go before becoming a castle!”

Rhodes sighed.

In this battle, the fragility of the wall was really crucial. The wooden wall couldn’t hold up for long, and it wasn’t thick enough.

So it could only be a wall, not a city wall! But there was no way to eat it in one go. If you don’t become fat, you can only do everything slowly…
