The First Tyrant of Daxia

Chapter 1819: Speculations about the Ptolemaic Dynasty

Hearing Mu Le's words, Qin Yun's face darkened, his eyes fell straight on Liu Wanshi, and he laughed with gritted teeth: "I didn't expect General Liu to be so worried about my safety. This sincere heart really touched me!"

Liu Wanshi knew that he was in great danger and tried to save himself: "Your Majesty, this was just my unintentional words, please calm down..."

Qin Yun sneered twice, looked Liu Wanshi up and down, and said slowly: "General Liu doesn't look like someone who was caught while running for his life. General Mu will help him dress up again."

"I will follow your majesty's order!" Mu Le bowed in response, directly elevating this sentence to the level of an imperial edict. He reached out and grabbed Liu Wanshi's collar and walked to the side.

Liu Wanshi was horrified: "Mu Le! Don't go too far! His Majesty is obviously joking!"

"This is an imperial edict."

"You're talking nonsense! Your Majesty didn't say that at all!"

"General Liu, you cannot disobey the imperial edict."

"Asshole! You did it on purpose!"

Accompanied by Liu Wanshi's curses, the two men walked into the woods.

Soon, the muffled sound of punches hitting flesh could be heard, and Liu Wanshi's groan could be faintly heard.

After a while, the two men appeared in front of Qin Yun again. Liu Wanshi was already bruised and his clothes were tattered.

Although he is also a battle-hardened general, his skills are still not as good as Mu Le. After all, this man is so brave that he can't be defeated by any ten thousand men, and he and He Ya are two of the great generals of Daxia.

"Your Majesty, I have completed your Majesty's order!" Mu Le bowed solemnly.

Qin Yun nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, let's do this."

Several people returned to where they had camped before. Liu Wanshi walked at the back, staring at Mu Le indignantly, thinking that he would get his revenge sooner or later.

Babia and the others were transformed back into the appearance of bandits by the guards.

However, compared with before, the ferocious and fierce temperament of Babia and others was gone, and they were as well-behaved as tamed cats in front of Qin Yun.

As for the woman rescued by Qin Yun, there was no need for her to dress up. She just had to continue pretending to be fleeing as before.

"Are you all ready?"

Qin Yun stood in front of everyone, looking around, taking everyone in.

Babia nodded tremblingly and said, "Yes, everything is ready. We can set off at any time."

"Very good, let's get started." Qin Yun waved his hand, "Escort us into the city."

As soon as the words fell, the accompanying guards immediately restrained the murderous aura in their bodies. Each of them looked weak and followed behind Qin Yun.

Babia swallowed, took a deep breath, put on his previous arrogant look, and climbed onto the horse.

"Brothers, get ready, get ready to go back..."

Seeing his cowardly look, Qin Yun sighed and reminded him, "You have to be confident! Be confident! Who are you going to show off your face as if your whole family just died?"

Babia trembled and his face became even more sad.

No one can pretend to be in this situation!

"Be confident! Get back to your previous state!" Qin Yun whispered, "Weren't you so crazy just now that you wanted to kill me? You looked like that!"

"But, but I can't pretend now!" Babia wanted to cry but had no tears, his mind full of the tree that had just been split in two.

Seeing this, Qin Yun's face darkened: "If you can't pretend, I'll saw off your legs right now!"

Babia trembled and shouted in a deep voice: "Brothers! We have captured our target! Now let's go back and claim our reward!"

The few remaining accomplices had no choice but to put on an excited look and follow Babia.

Qin Yun and others followed them dejectedly, like captured prisoners.

A group of people walked on a narrow mountain road. Qin Yun directed the scouts as they walked, and spread out to gather intelligence in all directions. The information they obtained was shocking.

There are at least three small British troop stations nearby. Although their vigilance is not high and it seems to be just a routine stationing, it is enough to show the importance that the British Empire attaches to this basin.

"It seems that these guys also expected that I might pass through here, or they have been coveting the Karim Basin area for a long time, otherwise there would be no need to station so many troops here."

Qin Yun thought for a moment and called a guard over: "Go and call Babia over. I have something to ask him."

Soon, Babia rode his horse to Qin Yun's side and was about to dismount, but was stopped by Qin Yun.

"Just sit there. I just want to ask you something." Qin Yun pointed around. "When you are out robbing, have you noticed these troops stationed around you? Have there been any changes recently?"

Babia recalled and whispered, "Yes, there weren't that many teams around here before. About a month ago, new teams started to station here, and the number of British caravans entering and leaving the capital also increased."

The coming and going of caravans often best represent the relationship between two countries.

The frequent coming and going of caravans meant that the Ptolemaic dynasty adopted a close policy toward the British Empire.

"No wonder Ptolemy IV is unwilling to lend us the road. It seems these guys have already started to lean towards the British Empire!"

Qin Yun stroked his chin, thinking about what might happen.

The worst situation was that Ptolemy IV himself had already stood on the side of the British Empire. On the surface, he said that he would not help either side, but in fact he was secretly ready to stab Bactria in the back at any time.

If this is the case, their trip into the city will be very dangerous.

Because once they come into contact with Ptolemy IV, the British Empire will immediately receive the news, and then the army will besiege the city and prepare to strangle him.

But if it was just officials under Ptolemy IV who were secretly contacting people from the British Empire, the situation would be much better.

In this case, he only needed to persuade Ptolemy IV and then help him to forcibly suppress those factions that were close to the British Empire, and he could easily complete the task of borrowing the passage.

Therefore, the most important thing at the moment is to figure out whether we are in contact with the British Empire.

"Since you are a privateer, you must be very clear about who has the most contact with the British Empire, right?" Qin Yun looked at Babia and smiled meaningfully.

Babia was stunned for a moment, scratched his head and said, "Well... As far as I know, the one who contacted the British Empire caravan happened to be Baron Flo, a good friend of Lord Kasim."

Hearing the name, the woman's face turned cold, her fists clenched suddenly, and shocking hatred burst out of her eyes.

Qin Yun noticed the woman's abnormality and turned to look: "Do you have a grudge against him?"

"Of course! If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have ended up like this!" the woman growled through gritted teeth.
