Kaitian Cat wants to peek and learn, but fails completely. / Kazdel sits at the same table as Siergrag.

In order to control the colonies, the slaves' food was distributed by the higher-ups, with two fixed meals a day, not a single grain more, in order to prevent slaves from accidentally stealing food and running away.

The Gaul's grain was all imported from other regions, and it had to be replenished once it was used up. Moreover, they did not grow grain in their colonies at all.

They planted cash crops to make big money, and the next replenishment would be in ten days.

Huang Cao saw this as an opportunity, which is why he decided to incite the serfs to revolt tonight.

Otherwise, if these people robbed the noble family's granary and ran away, it would be difficult for us to obtain the land later.

Without food, serfs had no chance of running away; they would likely starve to death if they tried.

This also reflects considerations of public sentiment and politics; without food, serfs could only rely on their own fertilizer factories.

Huang Cao could also indirectly control this area by using the grain supply as a channel, and turn his affairs into the affairs of the Sargon government.

After all, this was just a rebellion, not an attempt by foreign powers to control this land.

There's a lot to learn here, and it's also beneficial to the Sargon government.

Because the land was nominally returned to Sargon once again, the Gaul colonists were driven out by the serfs.

Emperor of Sargon said: You can't manage things well and you're blaming me?

More importantly, the land was sold, and all the money went into Emperor of Sargon's slush fund.

At the same time, Emperor of Sargon could use the pretext of suppression to send troops to the vicinity of the colonies.

Of course, it was impossible to suppress the serfs, since these people could continue to govern the land legitimately without the Gaul colonists.

And why would we spend money to do business with the Gaul when it doesn't cost money to beat these people?

Therefore, the armed forces dispatched by Emperor of Sargon were to prevent the Gaul from entering the colony again. After all, if they changed their clothes, who would be able to tell that they were Sargon's regular army?

Without evidence Gaul could only talk the talk, but as for sending troops to attack out of anger...

Even if the war is over, the cost to Gaul will be more than the value of this land.

An expeditionary force is not something anyone can afford to undertake, and no one can guarantee that unexpected events won't occur along the way.

After all, this is Sargon's territory, and Gaul cannot compare to the local natives in terms of their understanding of this land.

At that time, Huang Cao, who has no connection with either side, will be able to secretly control this colony. He only needs to give Emperor of Sargon a little benefit to make up for the cost of his stationing.

This is a perfect political consideration, understand? Applause!

The only one who suffered a loss was Gaul; the other two sides were completely happy.

Huang Cao could also officially use this colony as a starting point to gradually expand its influence into the Sargon region, and then it would be a game of power with the Emperor of Sargon.

... under the illumination of the Twin Moons.

The serfs, holding enormous crossbows, were doing their utmost to load ammunition onto them.

One after another, Originium Grenade, shimmering with a pale yellow light, were hung on the heads of the arrows.

The grenade was enormous and incredibly heavy, roughly the size of a ball.

Why was the range of this large crossbow only twenty meters? Because long-term malnutrition had rendered the serfs almost incapable of resistance; they did not know how to use a bow and arrow and could only use a specially made crossbow.

To maintain a certain level of sustained capability, these people must be able to cock the crossbows, but the grenades are incredibly heavy, and the blast radius is thirty meters.

If you're lucky, you can fire a second shot before you're completely unconscious from the explosion, which is why you need a certain amount of endurance.

As for why the grenades weren't made smaller... it's because only in this way could these noble armors be breached with extremely rudimentary weapons.

Ordinary weapons are simply ineffective against these races that possess bloodline suppression; only explosives can blast through the knights' heavy armor and inflict damage on the nobles' private armies.

Although the number of Gaul soldiers stationed in the colonies was small, they were all elite troops without exception.

Only in this way can we achieve a surprise effect; only death can bring about the death of the opponent.

At midnight, an army of serfs, armed with large crossbows, ambushed the cotton fields.

Then, it announced its arrival with countless torches, while countless crossbow bolts loaded with Originium crystals floated in the sky.

As the bowstring was plucked, countless violent explosions slammed into the castle of the Gaul nobles, blasting a large breach in it.

Several arrows carrying explosives struck a soldier, instantly turning him into dust.

For these serfs, their worries about the future had already been arranged by Huang Cao in the factory, so they had no worries even if they died outside.

Now it's time for revenge! Burn all these inhuman nobles to ashes!

The battle continued, with countless explosions interspersed with the roars of the rebels. Even the fiercest sounds could not mask their anger, and the firelight illuminated the night as if it were dawn.

Chapter 129 Kaitian Cat tried to steal the technique, but failed completely.

Huang Cao, thousands of miles away, learned of the news from the Gaul colonies almost in real time.

The telephone line had already been laid over there, and although there was only one, it was enough for him to arrange everything.

Of course, relying solely on ordinary serfs, even though carrying bombs would pose a threat to the nobles' elite soldiers, was still too risky.

Who knows if a hero unit might suddenly appear among some elite knights?

Therefore, in order to ensure the smooth execution of the plan, Huang Cao had already arranged for ten Abundance Warriors to provide assistance and to try their best to rescue some of the survivors.

These are all his future subjects, and those who have survived the struggle will surely have a purer loyalty to him.

These were all promising future employees; it's such a shame they died like this.

As the plan proceeded smoothly, by the morning of the second day, except for a very few Gaul nobles who managed to escape quickly and leave the castle, all military forces in the territory had been successfully eliminated.

The colony officially returned to Sargon's embrace, but only in name.

Sargon Royal Family's army moved extremely fast, quickly deploying a large force along the border.

The telephone line from Huang Cao to Sargon was very long, but because it was dug in a straight line, it did not consume much resources.

Emperor of Sargon was able to react so quickly, partly due to the influence of the Huang Cao, though those involved were unaware of it.

Sure enough, how could Gaul tolerate its lowly serfs rebelling against it?

An elite small force was immediately dispatched to suppress the rebellion, but the force was wiped out as soon as it entered Sargon.

Emperor of Sargon said: Remember, never fight on someone else's turf, or you'll regret it!

This is also why wars rarely break out between countries, especially for major powers, who would not dare to start a war without sufficient confidence.

Who knows what kind of monsters and demons lurk in these great powers?

When the multinational coalition invaded Kazdel before, they were driven back, which is enough to prove that you should never act rashly on someone else's territory.

Gaul is a prime example, both now and in the future.

Emperor of Sargon's submissive attitude was also for the sake of his international reputation. After all, he had sold the colony, and if he had taken it back immediately after selling it, how would he have been able to do business in the future?

However, this time, secretly obstructing Gaul has nothing to do with integrity.

Because the blame could be entirely placed on the serfs.

Huang Cao immediately issued an order to open the granaries and release grain, and vigorously promoted the use of chemical fertilizers.

At the same time, he secretly reached a cooperation agreement with Emperor of Sargon, giving him 10 percent of the colony's income free of charge.

Huang Cao looked down on this land, but he needed to use this uncontrolled land to open the gates of Sargon.

Once you take the first step, the rest will be much easier.

Moreover, this is a risk-free and highly profitable business. All I need to consume are some high-concentration Originium and some simple crossbow bolts. If I don't count the cost of laying telephone lines, all the expenses won't even reach three thousand gold coins.

A month later, the colony was quickly restored to Order and fell completely into Huang Cao's hands.

Kal'tsit, who watched the whole thing, was dumbfounded.

It was so easy to succeed.

What steps did I miss? Why was Emperor of Sargon indifferent to the riots?

Is there some kind of exchange of benefits involved? But I haven't found any correspondence between you and him...

"Kal'tsit, you've lived so long without ever being fooled, you're really incredibly lucky."

Perhaps the schemers they encountered were also fooled by this cat; Emperor of Sargon Huang Cao also investigated it.

He is quite meticulous and, strictly speaking, a smart person. He is just a bit greedy and has many flaws, but he is not stupid.

For most clever schemers, there's often no need to spell things out directly; revealing certain behaviors is enough for them to understand each other's meaning.

This is precisely why Huang Cao dared to directly attack Gaul's colonies.

Since the other party wouldn't tell her, Kal'tsit gave up the idea of learning it.

The saying goes, "One is never too old to learn," and this cat felt it was time to expand its knowledge base.

For example, how to handle relations between countries, so that when he returns to Theresia's side a hundred years later, he can be a sufficiently professional advisor.

If Master Huang can do it, why can't I?

Kal'tsit had plenty of confidence in her intelligence.

However, nearly a century later, Kal'tsit still hadn't mastered the essence of it.

Because Huang Cao wouldn't explain all her actions and steps in front of this cat.

They really treated me like a teacher; the idea that I was influenced by what they saw and heard isn't quite right.

Moreover, Kal'tsit's thinking is flawed; her starting point is completely different from that of Huang Cao.

Huang Cao's plans are usually executed more ruthlessly, treating the people involved as disposable numbers most of the time.

More importantly, this cat has no way of obtaining information and cannot have a full understanding of the battle situation, so listening to it is pointless.

Kal'tsit didn't understand military affairs, otherwise she wouldn't have been beheaded.

"It's so boring. I feel like I have nothing to do while you're working during the day."

Warfarin felt like she was about to turn into a useless vampire, even though Ah Cao's body smelled very, very good.

However, most of the time they have to manage things outside their territory, which may mean working three days in a row.

It used to be fine, since managing the territory every day required a lot of time.

But now that Huang Cao's team has been arranged, Warfarin's workload has been greatly reduced, and she has nothing to do after reading the newspaper every day.

It's not that there's nothing to do... If you can't do serious things, there are always unserious ones, right?

Therefore, Warfarin often ran out from under Huang Cao's desk in front of Kal'tsit, leaving behind a mess that required her to clean up carefully.

However, as the territory's maid, Kaitian Cat naturally couldn't complain about anything.

As for Lamian... after spending some time being affectionate after confirming their relationship, she also had to return to her own territory.

Although a true alliance has been formed with Eden, the daily operation and development of Banshee River Valley still requires careful consideration; all the work cannot be left to Huang Cao.

Fortunately, trains now connect the two places, and every three or four days Lamian would find time to spend quality time with her beloved A-Cao.

Then I would lie down with a vampire lady for the whole day.

Of course, Kal'tsit's workload will increase significantly in the next few days.

This can be considered another form of punishment, and for this cat, these three oddballs in front of her had no intention of avoiding her at all.

Huang Cao completely ignored her when he was playing games with the other two.

And during this process, Kal'tsit actually witnessed Huang Cao's body transformation ability, which was almost identical to that of the Shapeshifter Collective.

Chapter 130 Kazdel sat at the same table as Siergrag.

And can this kind of thing really make people feel happy?

Forcing a sword into a scabbard that is too small for its size will only result in the scabbard breaking.

Why did both Lamian and Warfarin wear expressions of pain mixed with enjoyment?

Although I accidentally inhaled some Charm Mushroom before and experienced that feeling, the artifacts inside my body are still preserved.

The only person who has seen her body in tens of thousands of years is Huang Cao, and that was because of a joke that he voluntarily revealed it.

Therefore, Kal'tsit didn't understand, nor was she aware, that Huang Cao could simultaneously perform healing abilities on others...
