Chapter 30 Blackmail

With the departure of the old man in black robe, hundreds of magicians lost their combat effectiveness, and the horse bandits who were still fighting collapsed in an instant. They raised their whips, beat the horses under them fiercely, and fled to the distance.

Ye Jiajun, who lost the suppression of magic, had red eyes, waved the weapon in his hand, followed the horse bandit and began a fierce pursuit, cutting off a famous fleeing horse bandit and becoming a cold corpse.

When the sun moved west and the night came, Ye Jiajun, who chased the horse bandits, returned to the station with more or less horse bandit heads to show off his achievements to his companions.

"Young master, our Ye army suffered more than 1,000 casualties in this battle, of which more than 300 people died. More than 15,000 horse bandits were killed, and less than 5,000 horse bandits escaped."

Ye Yi looked at Ye Chen with a ashamed face.

Ye Jiajun, one of the strongest troops in the Wu Kingdom, lost one-tenth of his combat effectiveness in the face of more than 20,000 horse bandits, which made Ye Yi very ashamed.

"Um, I know. I burned the dead Ye army on the spot, put the ashes into earthen jars, and transported them to Linhai County. After we settle down, we will mail 100 gold coins to each of their families as blood money.

The injured Ye family army tried their best to treat them. Each person was reissued 50 gold coins for disability expenses. Soldiers who can recover their combat effectiveness after minor injuries recover from their injuries will return to the army. Soldiers who can't continue fighting after serious injury treatment. When we settle down, our Ye family will give each of them a job to give them food and clothing. Worry-free.

Also, it's not your fault that Ye Jiajun suffered too many casualties this time, so you don't have to blame yourself. After all, none of us expected that a group of bandits would have a magician's army.

However, this time the bandits used the magician's army, which reminds us that although the strength of our Ye's army is strong, the arms are too simple. In the past, we fought with other regiments in the empire, and we couldn't see the problem. Now as soon as our Ye's army fought independently, we showed the problem. .

In order to improve the combat effectiveness and survival ability of our Ye's army, I will form a magician's army as soon as possible to assist the Ye's army in fighting. At the same time, you must also find a way to set up a commando team in the Ye's army, and a long-range arm specially designed to deal with the magician's army, specializing in attacking the enemy's leaders and Important people and the powerful army of magicians, if you need my help, I will try my best to meet your requirements.

Looking at Ye Yi with a ashamed face, Ye Chen pondered for a moment and said.

"Young master, don't worry, I will arrange all this. Also, young master, if you set up a long-range arm dedicated to fighting against the enemy magician's army, you need a large number of magic bows, magic crossbows, magic arrows and other long-range magic equipment."

Hearing Ye Chen's words, Ye Yi's face relaxed and pondered for a moment.

"I know. You set up the long-range arms first. As for the long-range magic attack equipment, I will find a way."

Hearing Ye Yi's words, Ye Chen was silent for a while and secretly took Rudolph's attention. He knew that Rudolph was a great alchemist and didn't make up his mind. He was really sorry for himself.

"Young master, I brought back the head of the black tiger!"

While talking, A Da walked to Ye Chen's side and handed the head of the black tiger to Ye Chen.

"Ye Yi, you order to cut off all the heads of the horse bandits, pile them up into a Beijing, deter the horse bandits in the black water plain, and let them know the majesty of our Ye family army!"

Ye Chen did not take over the head of the black tiger, but just took a faint glance, and then turned his head to Ye Yi beside him and ordered.

"It's the young master!"

Hearing Ye Chen's words, Ye Yi, who was angry because of the casualties of more than 1,000 Ye's army, answered without any hesitation, took the head of the black tiger from A Da's hand and walked to the battlefield full of corpses.

After Ye Yi left, Ye Chen took A Da into a heavily guarded tent.

At this time, hundreds of magicians were tightly tied by the Ye family's military ropes, like dumplings, lying weakly on the ground, staring at Ye Chen who entered the tent with frightened eyes.

"Good evening, dear magicians!"

Looking at the magician lying on the ground, Ye Chen casually pulled a chair, sat on it, and said lightly.

"Ye Chen, we are all powerful magicians. We ask you to give us the treatment we magicians deserve, untie us, and allow us to exchange ransom for our freedom in accordance with the mainland convention."

A magician who looked like a leader, with scars and a blue nose and a swollen face looked at Ye Chen sitting on the chair and shouted loudly.

Most of the casualties of thousands of soldiers in the Ye family army were caused by magicians. Therefore, the Ye family army did not have any good impression on this group of captured magicians. They were not polite at all and often punched and kicked. If it hadn't been for Ye Chen's order not to hurt the magician's life, these 100 magicians would have been He was cut by Ye Jiajun with red eyes.

"Continental Convention? I remember that it seems that only when the two countries are at war can the captured magicians enjoy the treatment of magicians in the mainland Convention. As for the magicians mixed in the bandits, they do not seem to have such treatment!"

Looking at the blue-nosed and swollen magician, Ye Chen raised his legs and said faintly.

Hearing Ye Chen's words, the magician was angry and didn't know what to say.

Seeing the magician's embarrassed appearance, Ye Chen smiled, took out a sharp dagger from the space ring, got up and walked to the magician's side. In his frightened eyes, he waved casually, and cold lights flashed away and shaved off the eyebrows on his face.

"Tell me your name and your origin, and I can consider giving you a way to live. Otherwise, I don't mind cutting off your heads and piling up the heads of those humble horse bandits to form a big Beijing for the residents on the black water plain to enjoy!"

Blowed gently, blew the eyebrows on the sharp dagger, and said in a cold tone.

Fee the coolness on his eyebrows, and then heard Ye Chen's cold words, the first magician was shocked and hesitated a little and said, "My name is Zhao Hai. We are the magicians hired by the Lu family. As long as we kill you, we will get a generous reward!"

Hearing Zhao Hai's words, Ye Chen's face turned cold and his eyes sparkled. He did not have the strength to compete with the Lu family head-on. However, after he was promoted to a foundation monk, he would unre mercy to uproot the Lu family!

Feeling the cold murderous intention emanating from Ye Chen's body, Zhao Hai's face changed slightly and said hard, "Young Master Ye Chen, we are willing to exchange the ransom for our freedom. Please ask the young master to make a price!"

"You magicians, let our Ye's army cause thousands of casualties. According to the 100 million gold coins of each Ye soldiers, a total of 100 billion gold coins. As long as you compensate our Ye's army for the loss of 100 billion gold coins, I will give you freedom."

Hearing Zhao Hai's words, Ye Chen put aside the affairs of the Lu family for the time being, looked at Zhao Hai with a cold face, and said lightly that he did not intend to let go of 100 magicians, but wanted to subdue them and form his own army of magicians. Otherwise, he would not capture them all and not allow the Ye family army to ask for them. It's my life.

"Shameless! You are blackmailing!"

As soon as Ye Chen's voice fell, before Zhao Hai responded, other magicians scolded one after another!

100 billion gold coins! Are you kidding? If they can take out 100 billion gold coins, how can they still be hired by the Lu family!

It takes up to 10,000 gold coins to train a six-level soldier, and most of the Ye army has several soldiers, all four- and five-level soldiers. Even if the Ye family has been trained since childhood, a Ye family soldier only needs thousands of gold coins!

Besides, most of the soldiers in the Ye family's army were recruited by the Ye family in Wuhan. The cost of each soldier was less than 1,000 gold coins. More than 10,000 soldiers of the whole Ye family army cost up to thousands of gold coins. Now Ye Chen directly opens his mouth to ask for 100 billion yuan of ransom, not blackmail, but what is it?

"Blackmail? Yes, I'm blackmail! What can you do to me! You now have three choices, pay the ransom of 100 billion gold coins, and I will give you freedom; serve me for three years, and after three years, I will give you freedom; I cut off my head and piled up the heads of horse bandits into a Beijing for people to enjoy!"

Hearing the scolding of many magicians, Ye Chen's expression remained unchanged and said faintly.
