Phoenix Grand Lord
Chapter 129: War at Sunset Mountain
Subjugating Rafa is equivalent to adding a very effective and accurate intelligence acquisition channel.
This is also what Merlin Valley urgently needs at present.
With this intelligence channel, Luo Wei can know the major events around him without leaving home.
Knowing the major events happening around him in real time can make better predictions and plans.
Even, it is possible to know the plans and intentions of the Curse Sect.
Of course, Rafa will not reveal the real core and secret information of the Curse Sect to Luo Wei, and Luo Wei’s purpose is not to target the Curse Sect.
Therefore, if you can know the information about the Curse Sect, you can know it, and if you can’t know it, you don’t force it.
The focus is on these bad lords around.
For now, Luo Wei’s short-term goal is to overthrow all the lords and nobles around him.
And Rafa’s goal is to search for "holy objects" in the territories of the surrounding lords and nobles.
The interests of the two are different, but they do not affect each other, and they can be regarded as having the same goals.
Luo Wei first asked Rafa about the situation of the Marigold Border War.
Rafa immediately informed Luo Wei that the war between Marigold and Broken Star Valley had ended. The lords of both sides shook hands and made peace under the supervision of the monks sent by Bishop Hong Fei, and there would be no more war in the short term.
This information also confirmed Luo Wei's speculation.
Then, we can go to Broken Star Valley to buy a large amount of food and serfs.
Although we will definitely be targeted, at least there is no war on the border, and both sides cannot directly tear up the truce agreement just signed.
Even if they want to deal with Luo Wei, they can only do it secretly.
After Luo Wei decided to arrange the affairs of Meilin Valley, he would set off for the Broken Star Valley market the next day and the day after tomorrow to get food and population resources.
Next, Luo Wei asked about the situation in the Sunset Mountain territory.
Although Sunset Mountain is far away from Meilin Valley, Luo Wei realized very early that the war in Sunset Mountain is the most important war in the entire northwest border, and even the entire Soladin Empire.
In comparison, the three defense battles in Meilin Valley were only marginal, and did not even attract the attention of other lords.
Rafa was very familiar with the situation in Sunset Mountain Territory, and he actually told Luo Wei about it for more than ten minutes in one breath.
From the local conditions and customs of Sunset Mountain, to the economic sources and military strength of several manor lords, to the fact that the entire Sunset Mountain Territory is now in the hands of the Curse Cult, the lords and nobles of Sunset Mountain Territory were basically killed, but one lord swore allegiance to the Curse Cult and handed over his military power, so he survived.
Hearing this, Luo Wei could not help but nod slightly.
It seems that the group of curse believers in Sunset Mountain is definitely not a mob.
The boss of the curse believers, or the real dragon oracle, should be in Sunset Mountain.
Of course, this speculation cannot be confirmed to Rafa - Rafa will not reveal a word about the specific situation of the curse believers in Sunset Mountain.
It is already very good to know the current real situation of Sunset Mountain.
The news that the Sunset Mountain Territory was completely controlled by the Cursed Believers is still under strict blockade.
Even the surrounding lords of the title, few know about it.
According to this situation, the Red Jade Earl who governs the northwest border will definitely go down in person.
It is not to fight for His Majesty the Emperor and the Pope's throne, but to eat the meat of the Viscount of Sunset Mountain who has been beheaded.
Sunset Mountain is now an ownerless territory. As long as the Cursed Believers of Sunset Mountain are defeated, they can naturally become the Lord of Sunset Mountain.
Presumably, the Red Jade Earl is now summoning his direct vassal lords.
For example, the Marigold Baron, the Star Shattering Valley Viscount, and the Purple Forest Territory Baron, who are subordinate to the Red Jade Earl but not direct, are not qualified to have a share of the soup.
However...
Luo Wei thinks that the real dragon oracle of Sunset Mountain should be very strong.
Since he can easily take over the entire Sunset Mountain Territory, he must have thought of a back-up plan long ago.
The nobles of the Red Jade Earl may not be able to gain any benefit from the real Dragon Oracle.
Then, Luo Wei asked for some other detailed information, and Rafa told him everything he knew.
Through the information provided by Rafa, Luo Wei immediately had a clearer prediction of the situation he was in.
The focus of the entire northwest began to shift to Sunset Mountain.
Sunset Mountain is the key road from the northwest border to the imperial capital Dawn City, and it is also easy to defend and difficult to attack.
There will definitely be a large-scale battle around here, which may not be completed in a month or two. It is very likely that the nobles of the Red Jade Earl will be abused very badly, and it is also very likely that the surrounding small lords will form a coalition to attack the Dragon Oracle.
After all, the Marquis of the Western Territory cannot be allowed to intervene in such matters.
Once the Marquis of the Western Territory intervenes, the Sunset Mountain territory will inevitably fall into the hands of the Marquis's direct line.
So in the end, the Red Jade Earl will definitely send all the non-direct lineage lords.
At that time, Meilin Valley will have another good opportunity to develop.
"Mr. Rafa, your information is very valuable."
Rowei took out a bag of gold coins from the magic bag, "Here are 100 gold coins, which is your information fee this time, please count them."
Rafa said in surprise: "Master Luo Wei, you really gave it to me! In fact, what I said is very ordinary."
Rowei smiled, "It's ordinary to you, but it is very valuable to the blockaded Meilin Valley.
"Besides, this is a business, so just take it. I'm counting on you to provide me with more information.
"Oh, by the way, from now on you use the magic messenger crow to deliver information to me. Regardless of whether the information is valuable or not, the cost of the magic messenger crow will be covered by me."
Rafa took the heavy bag of money in disbelief, "After so many years as a traveling businessman, this is the first time I have made money with my tongue..."
Luo Wei cleared his throat, "From now on, just be a man who makes money by talking."
Rafa felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. "Well, thank you, Mr. Luo Wei. But these 100 gold coins are too much. I made 100 gold coins in just 10 minutes. I rely on selling fakes, cough." Hey, the businessman who sells the same brooch as the Princess is a little embarrassed."
Luo Wei laughed, "Are you still embarrassed to take money? Well, let's just treat this money as buying daily necessities on your carriage."
Rafa quickly said: "That's not possible! The principal of my truck is 200 gold coins! Really! Mr. Luo Wei, you can't bargain like this. Others are just like chopping branches. Why don't you bargain? It’s like digging up tree roots! If I do business with you, I’ll lose all my money in just a few days!”
Luo Wei smiled harmlessly and said, "I'll give you an unlimited supply of beer. Can you lose?"
Rafa thought for a while, "That's right...beer must be a hot seller. Master Luo Wei, can you give me a detailed introduction, how much should I sell a barrel for?"
