The battle of Seru Khan vented all the resentment that had been scattered by Alonso during this time.

King Gravel and Holf also rescued Ackermann, who was covered in wounds, but Patrick died unsurprisingly, leaving Holf devastated.

Ackerman was in tears when he heard the news, and after this battle, Ackerman had a very high status in the hearts of the Norslanes, and everyone called him Berserker Ackerman.

Both sides had expected to fight a battle for months, but it ended in a short day, the war went on so quickly that no one expected, and the blood of the war was the most bloody and tragic war between the Delmen and the Norslands in years, and both sides used the most violent weapons to carry out the killing to the extreme.

This battle was later named the 'Battle of the Black Stone Fort' by historians, but the impact of this battle was extremely far-reaching, it destroyed the last glory of the Empire, and opened a new pattern of warfare.

Alonso led his army back to Blackstone, where he personally wrote a letter to King Gravel, who was stationed outside the city.

"I wish we could sit down and have a good talk!"

At this moment, one of the guards hurried into Gravel's tent, "Your Majesty, Alonso has sent a message to your Majesty." ”

"Ahh

"Bring it in!"

Soon, a dozen or so guards brought in two young Delman Empire officials, one of whom bowed to King Gravel and said in Norsland: "On the orders of Lord Alonso, Marshal of the Delman Empire, I will send a letter to Your Majesty, as well as a gift." ”

Speaking of gifts, the young official behind him placed a wooden box on the table, and King Gravel took the letter, and did not look at it, his eyes were fixed on it, and the sense of foreboding rose strongly in his heart once more, and he seemed to smell a trace of blood.

"Open the box!"

He took a deep breath and ordered the guards to the left and right, and by this time, the imperial official and his companion had retreated to the wall, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Two guards stepped forward, pried open the wooden box with daggers, opened the lid, and uncovered a layer of oiled paper, and suddenly the two of them screamed 'Ah!', their faces turned pale with fright, and they took two steps back together, staring at the contents of the box, and one of the guards shouted, "Your Majesty, it's a hand!"

King Gravel saw clearly, inside the box was a bloody hand, it was the right hand of Anna, whom he had high hopes for, and King Gravel only felt an unbearable pain in his heart, as if a knife had been plunged into his heart, and his eyes became blurred, and his body shook, and he was about to fall.

Several guards hurriedly supported him, and the other two guards roared, drew their swords and rushed at the Imperial officials, "Stop!" King Gravel stopped them, he was an army of a country after all, and finally restrained his gaffe, and then a great sadness came over him, he knew that Anna was finished, and so was his newly formed Norsland hoplite.

He stared blankly at the wooden box for a long time, and at last, he spoke, his voice became unusually low, and asked the Imperial officer, "What do you marshals mean?"

The imperial official stepped forward and saluted: "What the marshal wants to say is on the letter, please take a look at it." ”

King Gravel slowly picked up the letter, only to see that it was written on the cover: 'His Majesty King Gravel of the Kingdom of Norsland has personally opened it. ’

"Kingdom?" King Gravel smiled bitterly, this Alonso used such a title is really ironic, and it is really unprecedented, opened the letter, Alonso began the letter and said: "Marshal Alonso William of the Delman Empire to His Majesty King Gravell of the Kingdom of Norsland, I would like to speak sincerely with Your Majesty. ’

It was Alonso's own handwriting, and there was a lot of sincerity between the lines, and King Gravel sighed, and the letter made it clear that his Norsland hoplites had been wiped out, and Alonso advised him to face reality.

King Gravel read the letter over and over again, he fell into deep thought, no one dared to disturb him, and the imperial officials stood quietly waiting for his reply.

I don't know how long it took, as if awakened from a dream, King Gravel nodded slightly, "All right, please tell your marshal, I would like to talk to him." ”

In the Norsland Kingdom barracks, Ackerman sat bare-chested in the room, and a military doctor was carefully changing his dressing.

At this time, the military doctor washed Ackerman's wounds, finally applied medicine, and solemnly instructed him: "The injury is serious, the muscles and bones are injured, and you can't use your strength for three months, and you can't fight for a year, otherwise you won't be able to fight for the rest of your life." ”

Ackerman only felt a dull pain in his left abdomen, and after taking the medicine, he immediately felt a burst of coolness, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "Speaking of which, I am still lucky, my brother's intestines are broken, I really don't know how to tell my sister-in-law about this." ”

Thinking of this, Ackerman's heart felt like a knife.

Although this battle repelled the Delmans' plan to completely defeat the Norslan Expeditionary Force, the current situation is still not optimistic.

He Ackerman is really not the most courageous in the entire Norsland Kingdom, but this performance, everyone undoubtedly has high respect for him, and everyone calls him Berserker Ackerman.

Ackerman is not lightly injured, and it seems that during this time, he really needs to recuperate. He thought of Isabella, who was very unhappy that King Gravel had not taken her with him on his expedition.

I don't know, after this expedition and returning to Galgalon, Princess Isabella's attitude towards him will be any different from the past.

After a while, Lord Holf came here to see his son, and he was deeply saddened by Patrick's death, but there was still a living thing for the living.

Patrick's death was glorious, he was a Norslan warrior who was destined to drink with the martyrs in the Valhalla of the god Olugar, and stay up all night.

The soldiers of the Horf family, all of whom wore strips of white cloth, were in Norsland's custom to cheer for those who died in battle.

King Gravel communicated with the Khan of Seru, explained what Alonso meant, and showed Alonso's letter and Anna's hand to the Khan of Seru.

Serul Khan also sighed lightly, he knew that this victory was actually a disastrous victory, and it was thanks to Ackerman's persistence and stubbornness.

The current situation is still not optimistic, they are also in a dilemma, it can only be said that negotiations may still be necessary, at least it will take time to restore morale and so on, and time can be delayed through negotiations.
