Seeing Betina smiling bitterly, Li Yi still shook his head with a smile on his face, and then spoke to Betina: "Of course I don't think you can still have the energy you used to do now. But we have all heard a saying that the lean camel is bigger than a horse. Betina, since we are ready to stand on the same warship now, then if you really have any trump card, I hope you can tell us."
When Li Yi spoke, his expression was always very confident. Because Li Yi remembered that after invading the Sai Empire, the entire palace was surrounded by the army of the Tianlan Empire. Not to mention a person who escaped from a royal family, even a palace maid could not escape. So now seeing that Betina could sit here safely and with her strong strength, Li Yi guessed that Betina must have been arranged by the king of Sai before the city was broken.
It’s right to think about it. A huge empire cannot be completely destroyed by another empire. Before destroying the country, leaving a backup plan, and hopes to leave a spark for the empire, so as to prepare for restoration in the future.
It was because of this that Li Yi decided to assist Betina and help her reshape the mountains and rivers. Because Li Yi firmly believed that Betina would definitely have a deeper force than herself.
Looking at Li Yi's sharp gaze and the deep confidence in his eyes, Betina finally lost and shook her head with a wry smile and said to Li Yi: "Okay, I really lost to you. Since you said that, I can't hide it from you. Before the Tianlan Empire besieged the Sena Royal City, my father had already felt that our Sai Empire would be destroyed in that war. After all, that was not a problem, because the entire Sai Empire was about to fall at that time. The empire originally wanted to rely on the Sena Royal City to defend the territory in the south, but was still by the Tianlan Emperor.
The country's army passed through the mountains and hit the empire's hinterland. In that case, we all knew that it was only a matter of time before the fall of the Sai Empire. So before the Tianlan Empire launched the final attack on the Senna Royal City, the father sent some royal members out of the royal city in batches. At that time, the one hundred dead soldiers from the empire were also out of the first level. After leaving the royal city, I was afraid that our goal would be too exposed, so I dispersed them. Now as long as I want to recall them, I can do it soon."
After hearing Betina finally let go and said her trump card, Li Yi, Yad and Pat were both stunned. It was not because Betina said that the trump card was too shabby, but because they were shocked by Betina's trump card.
Especially Li Yi, as a person who has fought on the battlefield, Li Yi deeply knew what kind of lethality would be achieved if these hundred dead soldiers with a level of strength appeared on the battlefield together. When they fought in the Wu'an Kingdom, Li Yi deeply realized what kind of impact the force had in a strong overall force.
After a little shock, Li Yi laughed and said to Betina: "I really didn't expect that the Sai Empire would leave such a profound move for itself. It is easy to get a thousand troops, but it is hard to find a good general. Although the one hundred dead soldiers only have one level of strength, they are defeated by enough numbers. If they can be summoned back, then we will really have the capital."
Betina nodded in agreement with what Li Yi said. Betina has always been full of confidence in the dead soldiers who secretly came out with her.
"So, where did you dismiss all the dead soldiers? Now I want to recall them, is it difficult?" After sighing, Li Yi finally asked the main topic.
"After I separated from them, I divided them into ten teams, and there was a captain in each ten people. I asked them to be mercenaries of these hundred dead soldiers, but they were not war mercenaries, because they were the future hopes of the empire, and each one could not be compromised. Later, an uprising broke out in the Sai Empire, and some of the dead soldiers took advantage of the riots to join the uprising team. After several years of development, their team has also developed to a small scale. Although it is not difficult to recall them, I think that as the dead soldiers who have made certain achievements in the uprising army, it is better to let them continue to lurk in the uprising army's team, so that they can develop more favorably." After thinking for a while, Betina said seriously.
"Well, that's right. After all, if they are asked to give up the forces they have already obtained, it would be a bit unprofitable. If they are asked to pull the team into the Tianlan Empire, it is too obvious. They will be noticed by the Tianlan Empire because of their rashness, and they may end up in the end. So don't be alarmed by the dead soldiers who have made great progress in the uprising army. Then, apart from those mercenaries, how many dead soldiers can you recall now." After agreeing with Betina's statement, Li Yi decided to recall the other dead soldiers first.
"Ah, apart from the dead soldiers who are now staying in the original Sai Empire, there are almost seven teams of dead soldiers who can be recalled. These people have been working as mercenaries in the Tianlan Empire and the Atlan Empire over the years. However, for safety reasons, I did not let them show their strength, so I have never cultivated any power in their hands. I have the contact information of each of their captains. It is not difficult to summon them to the Tianlan Empire now." Bettina said calmly.
"Okay, Team Seven, that is seventy dead soldiers and seventy strong men with first-level strength. For the current Killing God Mercenary Group, this is already a considerable combat power. As long as we summon them, we only need to fight a few beautiful battles in a few wars. It is probably not difficult to accommodate other war mercenaries." Li Yi was still happy when he heard the result given by Betina. Now that people have not been summoned, Li Yi has already started to think about whether to develop power.
Seeing Li Yi's happy look, Yad couldn't help but smile and said, "Wow, Captain Li, in this blink of an eye, your subordinates have 70 more out of thin air, and they are all good players of the first level of strength. It's really gratifying."
Seeing Yadie's hippie look, Li Yi waved his fist in dissatisfaction. After seeing Li Yi's iron fist, the latter quickly shrank his head and said to Li Yi with a smile: "Hehe, it's just a joke, why should you take it seriously? But to be honest, Li Yi, even if we wait for these seventy dead soldiers, it will be extremely difficult for our mercenary group to develop. After all, we don't have money, so how can we absorb other mercenaries?"
After hearing Yadi say this, Li Yi could only shake his head and said in confusion: "Actually, I have thought of this problem, but now I can only take one step at a time. After all, in the past thirty years, my concept of money has been very vague, so it is so embarrassing now. If you really need money, you may have to come back and ask Senior Neil for help."
"That old man in 'Hongfang'? Will he help us?" Yadi asked curiously when he heard Li Yi suddenly talk about Elder Neil.
"It is not certain whether we help or not, but if we really lack money, I can only think of this method." Faced with the problem of YD, Li Yi finally showed a helpless look.
However, when Li Yi was at a loss when facing the money problem that Yadi suddenly mentioned, Pat waved his hand and said to Li Yi: "You two have been mercenaries for many years. I, the one who just entered your circle, can see how you two still see it. Who said that war mercenaries have to give them money, and the money is the rich men who hired us to fight. Why do we think about how to make money? What we think about is how to help the rich men fight a good war, and then think more about how to make fewer casualties among those who follow us. If we can do this, can we develop."
Li Yi, who was originally thinking about money, smiled embarrassedly, and patted his forehead in annoyance. Li Yi said embarrassedly: "Haha, I didn't expect this when I was asked by Yad before. If it weren't for Brother Pat's reminder, I would have forgotten. Yes, war mercenaries, the way to make money is to collect mercenary fees from those major forces. After earning money, they will distribute it to their subordinates. In this way, there is no place to spend money."
After Li Yi suddenly opened his mind, Betina smiled slightly. After laughing, Betina spoke: "But you should not be so optimistic at the very least. After all, it seems like you want to support a mercenary group. If you really don't have any capital, it will be impossible to succeed. There are many places to spend money, but we can't think of it now. So before I recall the dead soldiers, we'd better think about how to get more money as soon as possible."
Hearing Betina's reminder, Li Yi nodded in agreement. In this chaotic world, besides absolute strength, only money can solve some problems.
Seeing that the problem had been almost solved, Betina also smiled and stood up and said to Li Yi: "Okay, the matter has been almost done. All arrangements for the future will depend on you. I will go out to do business first and send orders to let the scattered dead soldiers gather in Lily of the Valley City as soon as possible. It's getting late, so you can rest early."
"Well, okay, then you will be more tired. I really hope to see those excellent soldiers as soon as possible." Li Yi said with a smile.
"You're so kind. Now you've arrived on a warship. Besides, you're also busy with our Sai Empire. I should thank you for your thanks." Bettina shook her head and said to Li Yi, then turned around and prepared to go out.
"Since you have said that we will fight side by side in the future, don't be so polite in the future. Try to be careful not to let the news leak. Now it is in the territory of the Tianlan Empire, if something really happens, we will be unable to escape." Li Yi reminded.
"Well, I know, don't worry. I've been experiencing outside for so many years. I'm not the spoiled princess in the palace. Leave it to me, so don't worry." After that, Betina turned around and walked out of the room.
When Tang Hao saw Betina leave, he stood up and said to Li Yi with a smile: "Haha, you have been talking just now. Sorry, you have helped us brothers so much before, and we still hide our identities. Now that I finally say it, I won't hide it. My name is Barack Perkins, and you can just call me this name in the future."
"Well, I understand, I really didn't see that. Brother Barak was also a prince in the empire before." Yadi said jokingly as he looked at Barak with a smile.
"Haha, it's all the past, so don't mention it in the future. My sister may need help when she contacts her, so I'll help her first, and we'll talk later." After that, Barack turned around and left the room.
After both the siblings left, the smile on Li Yi's face slowly dissipated.
"Li Yi, do you think what the siblings and brothers said is true? We are really on the road to help the Sai Empire restore the country?" Seeing that both Betina and brothers left the room, Yadi asked from the side.
"Well, I think their identities will definitely not be fake. After all, this kind of identity has no value to pretend. Besides, if Bettina can really summon seventy dead soldiers with first-level strength, then such a move will naturally prove their identities. If you want to gather seventy first-level strong men in a short time, this is not something that a small force can do." Looking at the view outside the window, Li Yi said lightly.
"This is true, but I'm just a little curious. Since the Sai Empire decided to leave a backup plan for itself, why not leave as much capital as possible? Although a hundred dead soldiers are not considered small, it seems a bit too shabby in the Sai Empire back then." Pat also walked to Li Yi and expressed his doubts.
Hearing this, Li Yi looked back at Pat, then smiled deeply, and said lightly: "Intuition tells me that this Betina must still not have much confidence in us. If I guess correctly, she must have a backup plan." After that, Li Yi looked up at the sky outside the window and said in his heart: "Alice, I am finally going to embark on the road of revenge, bless me."
When Betina was trying to gather her former subordinates, Li Yi and her group began to become bored in Lily of the Valley City.
"Li Yi, three days have passed. When will Betina gather his subordinates?" When the sun was full in the afternoon, Yad lay lazily on Li Yi's roof and said to Li Yi who was resting with his eyes closed.
"Get out of here, just one day has passed. Why are you in a hurry? If those people are so easy to find, then I really doubt their strength." Hearing Yadian's nonsense questioning, Li Yi cursed with anger with his eyes closed.
"Hehe, am I just anxious? The key is that it's not interesting to stay in Lily of the Valley City every day. Although it's quite prosperous, I always feel that there is no freedom from Noye City. I still miss my life at that time in the Atlan Empire. I think about how to complete fun tasks every day. Even if I occasionally risk my life, I still think it's quite interesting." Looking at the white clouds in the sky, Yad said to Li Yi boredly.
"Yadi, you follow me and you are about to walk on the road of no return for a day. Will you feel regretful or afraid?" Seeing Yadi's expression of emotion, Li Yi suddenly opened his eyes and looked straight at Yadi and asked.
