Chapter 688: Blackmail
Three days later, Jiang Tian was accompanying his subordinates to count the belongings from the house, when a subordinate reported that Mark, the envoy of the Duchy of Louis, asked to see him, and Jiang Tian asked him to take him to the hall to wait, and he only stepped into the hall slowly after an hour.
As soon as Mark saw Jiang Tian, he stood up with "Teng", "Lord Jiang, our Grand Duke has agreed to your request, 6,773,800 gold coins, a lot!" ”
"Oh? Hehe, worthy of being the Grand Duke of Rose, what a lot of courage, no wonder he can govern a mere principality so strongly! Jiang Tian's expression did not fluctuate, as if he had expected this result.
Mark showed a look of pride on his face, "That's natural, our Grand Duke is the Emperor of the Ages, a few decades ago we were only in the ranks of the Duchy, and now even some ordinary kingdoms dare not offend our Duchy, and between the kingdom, we are just a coronation ceremony, and our Grand Duke has submitted a look to His Majesty the Pope, I believe that we will get an exact response soon, and from now on there will be no Duchy Louis in the world, but the Kingdom of Louis!" ”
"Hehe, it's really enviable to have an uncle who is the Pope!" Jiang Tian said, the irony was very obvious, Ma Yan couldn't hear it, he smiled, and he opened his mouth to bring this topic over, "Lord Jiang, our Grand Duke said that as long as you can see clearly, exit Balgiri City and hand over the Bargiri Ore Vein, our Grand Duke can not be blamed for the past, and promise that the wealth you have looted in Balgiri City is legally yours!" ”
"I heard you right, Balgiri seems to have been the territory of the Phillips Federation since ancient times, and you actually said such things in front of the Lord of the Phillips Federation. Do you think I'm weak and easy to bully!? Jiang Tian's gaze suddenly became cold. Although he did not deliberately release the aura of a strong man. But Mark also felt like falling into an ice cellar.
However, Mark still forced himself to endure: "You are not the real lord of the Phillips Federation, this land, including the Bargiri vein, is the fief of the Harrison family, and we bought the ownership of the vein from him!" ”
"Harrison!" Jiang Tian suddenly raised his voice, and after a while, he saw a fat middle-aged man trotting in, panting, with low eyebrows, "My lord, you call me?" ”
"Did you sign an agreement with the Duchy of Louis to sell the ownership of the veins?" Jiang Tian asked.
Harrison shook his pig-headed head like a rattle. "No, absolutely not, I can swear to the God of Light that it was the despicable villain of Grand Duke Rose who took advantage of my father's serious illness and weakness to deceive, and abducted and deceived him to forcibly occupy the Bargiri mine!"
"Harrison, you pig, you dare to be disrespectful to the Grand Duke, have you forgotten who crawled like a worm at the feet of the Grand Duke and begged for forgiveness?" Mark scolded, and Harrison immediately shrank his head, but unfortunately his neck was full of fat. He couldn't lock it in at all, and it could be seen that he was still extremely afraid of the Grand Duke of Rose.
Jiang Tian waved his hand in annoyance. Harrison was like an amnesty, and only after talking nonsense did he leave the hall, Jiang Tian said, "Mark Messenger, it turns out that the Bargiri vein has nothing to do with your Duchy Louis!" ”
Mark snorted coldly, "Even so, it has nothing to do with you, the lord of Bavaria City, when does Bavarian City have the right to meddle in the affairs of other city-states!" ”
"Hehe, I knew you would say that!" Jiang Tian's right hand shook, and he saw that there was an extra parchment roll in his hand, and threw it to Mark, "Open your eyes and take a look!" ”
Mark took a look, his face changed drastically, and it turned out to be a letter from the 39 city lords of the Phillips Federation jointly recommending Jiang Tian as the lord of the Phillips Federation.
"Smack!"
Jiang Tian clapped his hands, "Okay, I'll show you these things not to be afraid of your Duchy Louis, but just to let you know that I, Jiang Tian, am the true master of the Phillips Federation, and any jackal who wants to break into the territory, I will destroy it by thunder!" ”
This sentence was said in a very angry manner, and the powerless Mark turned pale with fright, and finally returned to normal, "I, the Principality of Louis, have four major legions, and there are 100,000 troops outside the city, if you ???"
"Alright, alright!" Jiang Tian planned Mark's words, "Don't say these threatening words, hurry up and pay the money to ransom people!" ”
The next day, he was collecting money and handing it over, and when Mark saw the more than 5,000 soldiers, his eyes almost fell, and the elite of the dignified Green Dragon Legion was no different from the beggars on the street, with yellow faces and thin skin, and ragged clothes.
Mark protested to Jiang Tian against the abuse of the captives, but Jiang Tian did not bird him, but Mark looked back at the city of Bargiri with hatred, and returned to the camp of the Duchy of Louis.
As soon as he returned to the camp, Pierce's temperament was exposed again, clamoring to take over the command and capture the city of Balgiri to wash away his humiliation, the glory of the Clares family should not be defiled/stained, but Cruise, as the commander, objected, joking, the command was taken by you, what do I use to replace the bus.
Cruise has long blond hair, his face is as angular as a knife, he is very handsome, his eyes are as deep as the sea, and his eyes are resolute.
Pierce was furious, and the long whip in his hand abstracted Cruise, "Cruise, you are just a dog of my Clares family, if it weren't for this surname, you and your father would still be digging filthy feces in the country, and the lowly would dare to disobey my will!" ”
Don't look at Pierce being honest in front of Jiang Tian, but in this military camp, he has very high power, without him, his mother is a princess of the Arcadia Kingdom and a popular person to inherit the title.
With Pierce's strength, where can he hit Cruise, but the latter did not dodge, but was whipped firmly, with a "snap", there was a scarlet blood mark on his face, which was very eye-catching, which made the handsome Cruise look a little hideous, this expression was seen by Pierce, and he was scared to take two steps back.
This hideous expression flashed, and no one noticed it except Pierce, and Cruise said, "That's right, the Grand Duke is as kind to me as a mountain, and it was the Grand Duke who gave the lowly me a chance to prove himself, without the appreciation and promotion of the Grand Duke, as Your Highness said, I am still a lowly dung digger." Cruise accentuated his voice, "Because of this, I obey all the orders of the Grand Duke, and protecting the honor of the Grand Duke is the meaning of my Cruise's existence in this heaven and earth." So I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, the order given to me by the Grand Duke is to escort His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince back to the capital, and I will be fully responsible for the war against Balgiri City! ”
All of a sudden, Pierce sat on the ground as if he had been cramped, and the reason why he wanted to seize power was to use his merits to calm his father's anger. (To be continued.) )
