Corleone knelt in Tariq's tent and slowly closed his eyes, now he had no hope.

Tariq thought that Corleone had obeyed Eugen's orders, pretended to betray him, and then secretly did something to help Eugen, but in fact Corleone really betrayed Eugen.

Faced with a retainer who betrayed him, Corleone couldn't think of any reason for Eugen to save him, and judging from the current situation, even ten Corleone were not worth as much as one Izzat.

Eugen is not stupid, how could he do such a loss-making deal, he has Izart's life in his hands, he can use it to threaten Tariq all the time, what use can he use in exchange for a Corleone, it is just to add another prisoner to the prison.

Therefore, Corleone now already sees himself as a dead man, and since he made the decision to betray Eugen, there are some things that can never be returned.

Originally, Eugen thought the same way.

It wasn't until he saw the letter from Tariq that his mind suddenly changed a little.

Judging by Tariq's wording, if he refuses to exchange hostages, there is no doubt that Corleone will die.

It stands to reason that this is the most suitable fate for a traitor, Corleone has already raised his butcher's knife against him and personally led a large army to kill him, and Eugen, even if he is a Buddhist, is estimated to kill in a fit of rage.

But recalling the incident when Corleone traveled thousands of miles to the rescue, Eugen was silent, that time in the face of the Blackbeard bandits, if Corleone had not been there, he would have been beheaded by the murderous bandits a long time ago.

In any case, Corleone has saved his life, and now, the only one who can save Corleone is Eugen himself.

This time, Eugen was really stumped by this question, to save or not to save, two different choices, and they also represented two completely different paths.

Holding the letter from Tariq in his hand, Eugen sat alone in a chair in the hall all night, always weighing and thinking about it.

It was very dawn, watching the sunlight gradually shine in through the window, and Eugen's mind was full of thoughts, remembering many messy things, some of which happened recently, some of which were before the time crossing, and some of which belonged to the original owner of this body.

All kinds of thoughts mingled, and finally, Eugen sighed softly, got up from his chair, called the guard at the door in, and then opened his mouth to order: "Reply!" Viscount Tariq, tell him that I agree to exchange Corleone for Izzat, but at a time and place! ”

Eugen finally made up his mind, no matter what, he couldn't just watch Corleone die, Eugen was not a bad person, and the reason why he saved Corleone was just to ask him why he betrayed himself.

With Corleone's character, Eugen imagined that he could never have betrayed himself for profit, and likewise, he could not have betrayed him for the sake of power or beauty, so Eugen was curious to hear what Corleone would say.

The guards were ordered to begin making arrangements at once, and the letter was quickly written and sent to the Tariq barracks through the army's spies.

There is another reason behind Eugen's agreement to the exchange, that is, the current city of Lebor no longer needs to use Izzat to defend it, and with a hundred dragon troops, he even wants Tariq to attack.

Returning Izzat to him in exchange was also to give Tariq a reason to attack, and then defeat him once and for all.

As soon as Tariq was captured, the rest of the Saxon soldiers would not be in trouble, and the crisis in the Lebor region would be solved immediately.

At that time, Eugen fought for the territory with all his might, took the entire Lebor region, and asked Vienna for help, asking the family to send troops to help defend it.

At that time, the Lebor area will be as solid as an iron barrel, and the city's No. 1 Iron Works and No. 1 Research Institute will be able to gain some precious time.

With the help of this time, Eugen can continue to expand his strength, and when that time comes, let alone Tariq, even if Duke Billund himself leads a large army to attack, Eugen can defeat it without much effort.

This is the overall layout of Eugen, the first link is to defeat and capture Tariq first.

Soon, the letter was delivered to Tariq by the secret agent, and Tariq saw that Eugen agreed, and immediately laughed unbridled in the barracks: "Hahaha, how smart I think this Eugen is, now it seems that he is just a fool, he actually agreed to exchange, and the time is set in a day, this is simply a rush to find death." ”

Tariq laughed, and the Saxon spear behind him buzzed with it, and the laughter sounded like the wind blowing through a cave, and it sounded uncomfortable.

Tariq patted the arm of the huge black bear, and said with a sneer: "Haha, you are ready, after we rescue Izzat tomorrow morning, you will lead my troops to break through the gates of Lebor City in the afternoon, and kill all those who dare to stand in front of you!" ”

The Saxon Spear laughed even louder, his favorite sport was fighting, and when he heard that there was a battle to be fought, he was as happy as if he had picked up a gold coin.

Tariq then arranged all his soldiers and ordered them to prepare for battle, and if all went well, they could spend the night in the city tomorrow evening.

At the same time, Tariq also hurriedly asked a few doctors who were acting with the army to take care of Corleone, and he would be exchanged for him tomorrow, in case Corleone didn't survive and died today, it would be a lot of fun.

Corleone was treated right away, with several doctors working together to treat his wounds and enjoying a hearty dinner in the evening.

In Corleone's opinion, this should be the last meal of this life, and prisoners who are about to be executed often get a last supper, and at this moment he has accepted this matter and can face life and death calmly.

On the other hand, Eugen also seized the time to arrange for the soldiers to arrange, and the positional battle he proposed was to make full use of the houses and city walls in the new city of Lebour, and stretch the defense line, with a total of six defense lines in front and back, with an interval of 500 meters between each defense line, and the sixth defense line was the city wall of the old city.

At the same time, the Longxiang army was equipped with war horses, and all the Longxiang army gathered on the first line of defense, equipped with a certain amount of ammunition, and gave the Saxon soldiers a head-on attack.

After the ammunition was empty, the Long Xiang army immediately retreated to the rear on horseback, retreated to the second line of defense, and used the ammunition prepared on the second line of defense to continue the attack.

The whole process was like flying a kite, from the first line of defense to the sixth line of defense, it is conceivable that Tariq's forces will inevitably suffer great attrition.
