Vote Kurt

[Kurt Montandon]

Hello Mafia, look at your town. Now back at me. Now back at your town. Now back at me.

Sadly, you aren't scum.

But if you stopped paying fealty to the Emperor, you could swear loyalty to the King of Kings like me.

Look south. Now north. Where are you? You're in the Yan Dynasty, with scum your team-mates can't act like.

What's in your Inbox? I have it. It's a PM, with Path-Shaper telling you you're a roleless Inno in the town you love.

Look again. The message is now telling you you've been recruited.

Anything is possible when you play smooth and don't spam like a moron.

I'm on an elephant.

You make it sound like you were the only person doing this. Finding you might have been easier if you were.

You know, this might be the only lynch worth dragging out.

After Gu Yong had released Meng Huo, the commanders inquired of him "We had the good fortune to catch the leading chieftain of the Nanman; this could have brought the south under control. Why did the General set him free?" Gu Yong replied, "Holding Meng Huo captive will only inspire the rest of the south to rise up to release him. Pacification of the south requires that we subdue the hearts of the Man people." This explanation did not satisfy the commanders.

Meanwhile, Meng Huo fled south of the Yuan River, gathering his surviving followers. His call for reinforcements was answered by his loyal friend Yong Kai, who brought with him ten thousand men at arms. Yong Kai was a native of the region who had been appointed as prefect of Jian Ning by the emperor. Having no contact with the court for decades, Yong Kai had developed Jian Ning and its surroundings into his own miniature kingdom and supported Meng Huo's bid to keep the Nanman regions free of Han, Yan or Lu influence.

Meng Huo bid Yong Kai split his forces and approach the main Yan camp from each side while Meng Huo's own forces advanced in the centre. Gu Yong was deliberating in camp when a scout excitedly informed him that Man armies were approaching from three directions. The general ordered a blue flare fired into the sky, overriding the commanders' protests that it would give away their position. At the flare's signal, dozens of scouts began pouring into camp and reported the precise locations of the Man armies. Noting the wide spacing and lack of outriders amongst the Nanman armies, Gu Yong quickly dispatched two thousand of his best troops to each side to sneak past the approaching forces in narrow columns. The remainder of the camp formed up in defensive positions.

When the Nanman troops arrived they immediately charged the Yan camp with a thunderous roar. The Yan forces held formation and only broke in a few locations. Yan cavalry harassed the Nanman flanks while Gu Yong's elite troops struck from behind. The Nanman forces, weary from travelling so far and having only spears and shields, were easily routed. Meng Huo fought at the front of his line to inspire his troops, but they turned and fled leaving him to be captured by Yan captains. Yong Kai's lieutenant, E Huang, fled his right-side army broke. Yong Kai himself was thrown from his elephant and trampled by Yan cavalry.

Kurt Montandon is dead. He was Yong Kai and Meng Huo.

Good, there we go.

Sorry if you don't have time to get back or whatever, but may as well keep the momentum up.

Meng Huo was brought before Gu Yong. "Remember your promise: 'If you catch me again, I will agree to submit.' What do you say now?" "I only failed because here in Wu Xi we were too far to bring many Man soldiers, or any weapons other than spears and shields. We are too far from the rivers for my army to have been supplied with enough food so we had to fight you right away. It was the exhaustion and hunger that defeated us today, not your soldiers. Why should I submit?" "And if I let you go again?" Gu Yong replied. "Even a Man knows something about the art of war. If you send me home, I will be back with a real army to decide the day. And if you catch me again, I will offer my allegiance with heartfelt unwavering sincerity." "Next time you're captured alive and refuse to submit," Gu Yong warned, "it will go hard with you." He had Meng Huo's bonds removed and the King of Kings was sent provided food and sent south.

Meng Huo has been captured twice out of seven times

Sorry P-S.

Vote Khell

I guess we were going to lynch Khell anyway, but I find it odd that Kurt outed him like he did on thread... Too much WIFOM. I hope this goes well.

P-S is really being devious with wording like this. I can't tell who the fuck is doing what and obviously more than one person is MH... MH has been captured?? Color me confused. Might be a reference to Khell's impending doom, but...

[Gust Hubb]

For the record, I still think we only have one MH.

[Gust Hubb]

oh, and finders, you should be ready to do a find this night. save us time
