"Chapter 13: Openness and Honesty"

If a person sees someone in need and waits for their request, it is obviously not sincere help. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

- Alighelli Dante (Italian poet, one of the pioneers of the European Renaissance)

Licinius and the other three generals left the military tent under the orders of Bai Feng, and Queen Boudicca and General Eggers also understood that the most important thing to talk about was next, they did not think that the food of Rome was taken for nothing, and now it was finally time to pay the price.

"You two don't need to think so much, the food matter is not as complicated as you think, I am just going to talk to you about the specific alliance and cooperation between the city of Rome and the Acenian tribe, and I don't have any other ideas. ”

Seeing that the expressions of Queen Boudicca and General Eggers became solemn, Bai Feng naturally knew what they were thinking, this is also human nature, after all, how can there be a truly free lunch in the world?

"Governor of White Peak, since our Aceni tribe has chosen to become vassals of the city of Rome, then we are ready to pay the price, we just hope that when you give us the order, we will not forget the more than 100,000 people we still left on the east bank. ”

In the end, ginger is still old and spicy, and the veteran Eggers who accepts reality is better than the young Queen Boudicca, and he does not have the slightest illusion about the city of Rome in his words, which alone is much better than the Queen Boudicca, who is rigid on the outside and soft on the inside.

Don't look at Queen Boudicca's cold appearance on the surface, she is not surprised even what kind of situation she faces; with Bai Feng's experience, she can easily see through Queen Boudicca's composure, not to mention Eggers, who is in love with Queen Boudicca.

It was because General Eggers knew that his Queen Boudicca could not understand the cruel reality, so he chose to be open and honest with Bai Feng on such an occasion, and Bai Feng, who understood General Eggers' deep meaning, just smiled and shook his head, and comforted General Eggers and said:

"I know that I understand, General Eggers, that you are still very wary of our Roman city, and that no one can avoid the fact that at this time yesterday your and my armies were still fighting to the death on the banks of the Cangluo River.

But the past has passed after all, and you still have to look forward to being a man, and I think you must have known some of the examples of the Tasya Tribal Alliance, so I won't go into too much detail here, you and I just know it.

Here I can assure you both that in the future, the Esseni tribe will not be annexed by our city of Rome, but will become stronger and stronger with the support of our city of Rome, until you reunite the Acenian tribe, and our city of Rome will not interfere with you. ”

Eggers, who firmly believes that there are never eternal friends between tribes but only eternal interests, he will not easily believe the words of Bai Feng, the governor of Rome, and the current situation of the Tasia tribe is not what Eggers wants.

But it was Queen Boudicca, who was beside Eggers, she still chose to believe Bai Feng's words as always, and in Bai Feng's words, she got her future goal;

Just as Bai Feng was speaking, Eggers used the afterglow of his eyes to notice the change in Queen Boudicca's demeanor, and saw that the simple Queen Boudicca once again chose to trust the governor of Rome, and the helpless Eggers had to sigh silently in his heart.

Eggers, who originally wanted to put the current situation of the Tasya Tribal Alliance on the table, finally chose to bury this matter in his heart, maybe it is not necessarily a bad thing for the Aceni tribe to become the current Tasya Tribal Alliance in the future.

Boudicca, who has been simple and kind since she was a child, is not a qualified tribal leader after all, she can't rule the Aceni tribe ruthlessly, it is better to maintain a quiet and peaceful life of the Aceni tribe under the protection of the city of Rome.

She is already old, and sooner or later she will have to follow in the footsteps of King Prasus, and when that day comes, who will Queen Boudicca rely on to help her command the army and govern the tribe? Thinking of this, Eggers has already made up his mind.

"Governor Bai Feng, I have something here that I would like to talk to you about alone, can I let Her Majesty and the people around you withdraw for the time being?"

The unknown Queen Boudicca wanted to say something, but under the signal of Eggers' eyes, she obediently followed Yue'er to the backyard of the Doge's Palace;

"General Eggers, you general of the Ethine tribe have an extraordinary place in the heart of Queen Boudicca!

"Bai Feng, it's not an exaggeration to call you Bai Feng at my age, right?" Eggers did not respond positively to Bai Feng's joke, but turned the topic to the issue of title with a solemn expression, and Bai Feng certainly had no opinion on this.

"Of course!" General Eggers had something to say, and now there are only you and me in this chamber. ”

"Well, then I will not be hypocritical, I believe that your promise is true, and I also know what the fundamental purpose of this series of actions of your city of Rome is, as you say, the existence of the Tasya tribal alliance is the most vivid example.

On the surface, the strength of the Tasya Tribal Alliance is much stronger than before, but are those strengths really their own? The current Tasya Tribal Alliance has a powerful body, but in fact it is a puppet of your Roman city, isn't it?

Bai Feng, your expression doesn't need to become so serious, the reason why I am telling you this is not to change the fate of our Aceni tribe in the future, otherwise I would not have been able to let Boudicca leave first, I just want to make a deal with you. ”

Eggers's aggressive momentum made Bai Feng's face change greatly, he didn't expect that his and Yue'er's plan would be seen through by Eggers;

"Oh, yes? I just don't know what kind of deal General Eggers wants to make with our Roman city? Before you say what this deal is about, I want you to understand the most basic truth, who was the winner in yesterday's battle!"

Bai Feng, whose face was as heavy as water, did not deny Eggers's words, there were only Bai Feng and Eggers in the council hall at this time, and all the denials were meaningless;
