Chapter 240: Exchange (Part 1) (Page 1/1)

Eugen was so bad, he had no sense of being an aristocrat, and his words were vulgar like the words of a street thug.

But the lethality of this sentence is really not small, as soon as several guards beside Eugen heard this, they immediately snickered in a low voice, and even Izzard, who was surrounded by the heavy cavalry, was amused by this sentence.

"You!" When Viscount Tariq heard Eugen's words, his face turned blue with anger, and he stared at Eugen with dead eyes and said angrily: "Good Earl Eugen, I have long heard that you have sharp teeth and sharp mouth, and now I am a teacher." ”

Eugen was about to fight back, but Tariq hurriedly continued: "Our contest is on the battlefield, okay, hurry up and finish exchanging hostages, and then see who can have the last laugh between us!" ”

Tariq said in a hurry, he was really afraid of Eugen's mouth, and knew that he couldn't talk about him, so he simply proposed to start doing business, so as not to be ridiculed by Eugen again.

Eugen pursed his lips, he didn't bother to talk nonsense with Tariq, indeed, as Tariq said, after all, he still has to see the real trick on the battlefield, and the advantage of a momentary tongue is nothing.

So he just said, "Okay, then let's get started!" ”

With that, Eugen rode his horse and took a step forward, and Viscount Tariq on the other side also stepped forward, and the two of them came to a distance of only fifty meters from each other, and then stood there and looked at each other.

"I, Count Eugen Habsburg, swear by nobility and honor to conclude a temporary peace agreement with Viscount Tariq, pledging to end the fighting during the exchange of hostages, God bless us!"

Viscount Tariq also said something like this, and the content of the two people's words was exactly the same, both of them demanded that they should not deceive each other when exchanging hostages, and they should not take the opportunity to attack each other.

This oath also has a certain binding force on the aristocracy, after all, it is guaranteed by honor, as a nobleman, he often cares about his reputation very much, and those who violate it will be despised by the entire aristocratic world, and it will be difficult to make any friends.

This is also a protocol that has been handed down during the exchange of hostages, which is a kind of protection for both parties to the exchange, as well as for the hostages.

After saying the oath, Izat from Eugen's team and Corleone from Tariq's team walked slowly forward, the expression on Izzat's face was very relaxed, he knew from the day he was captured that such a day would come, as for what kind of form, he didn't care about it.

Corleone, on the other hand, had a blank look on his face, and his walking steps seemed a little sluggish, knowing that now, he still felt like he was living in a dream, and he couldn't understand what was happening in front of him.

As a traitor, he couldn't think of any reason for Eugen to change him back, whether it was to torture himself, which was also unlikely, it was not in line with Eugen's mercenary style.

Just as Eugen thought he knew Corleone, Corleone thought he knew Eugen well, but now they all paid the price for their self-righteousness.

Eugen trusted Corleone as a person, and Corleone betrayed him.

Corleone disgusted and turned his back on Eugen, and was defeated, and now Eugen has paid the price to save his life, which makes Corleone feel a strong sense of shame.

Now Corleone's heart was like knocking over the five-flavor bottle, with both the joy of surviving and a strong sense of shame, in addition to doubt, disgust, and gratitude for Eugen.

All kinds of complicated emotions lingered in his mind, and Corleone didn't know how to face Eugen at the moment, so he lowered his head and walked forward slowly like a lost dog.

Izzat held his head high, like a nobleman traveling to the four directions, with a high-spirited smile on his lips, and strode forward.

Soon the two staggered past each other, with Izzat walking behind Tariq and Corleone following Eugen.

"Hmph, Count Eugen, I hope that when we meet again in a day's time, you will still be as sharp as you were just now!" Tariq gave Eugen a cold look, then walked backwards with a sneer, and the Saxon Spear led a horse over for Izzat to ride, and then left together.

"Huh." Eugen didn't respond, just looked at Tariq's back with the same cold face, his eyes full of sarcasm.

"Just let you rejoice for a while, and soon you'll swallow all these words back into your stomach." Eugen whispered, and walked back.

Then, Eugen looked at Corleone, pretended to be excited, and said with a smile: "Hahaha, Corleone, this time you endured humiliation and threw yourself into the enemy camp, sent me intelligence, and helped me kill the enemy, and you were able to reap this victory, you are indispensable." ”

As he spoke, a soldier next to him signed a horse for Corleone to ride, and then Eugen himself took off his cloak and surrounded Corleone to help him withstand the cold.

"Huh?" Corleone looked confused, he couldn't understand what Eugen was talking about, he obviously betrayed Eugen, why did Eugen say that he was humiliated and thrown into the enemy camp?

After saying this, Eugen said no more, he believed that Corleone's cleverness was enough to grasp the meaning, and then, Eugen walked forward first, followed by several heavy cavalry, and Corleone walked last, still a little absent-minded.

"Could it be that he wasn't prepared to punish me, so he was deliberately exculpating me?" Corleone had a thought in his mind that he couldn't believe, he couldn't figure out how he had betrayed Eugen, how could Eugen bypass him and excuse himself in this way.

But the current situation is indeed like this, according to Eugen's words, Corleone took the initiative to join Tariq's army under Eugen's order and then secretly helped Eugen, in this way, Corleone is not at fault, but is still a hero.

Although he couldn't figure it out, Corleone didn't lack the courage to find the truth, and then he thought of Eugen's strange identity, so he raised his head and quickly followed.

Either way, things have come to this point, and he can only continue to see how things play out.

On the other side, Tariq was very respectful to Izzat, and he lowered his head and apologized: "I'm sorry, Young Master Izzat, it was my mistake to arrange you to live in a dangerous place, but you were exploited by that Eugen, and as a result, such a thing happened, I'm really sorry!" ”

Tariq's body trembled slightly when he said this, although the person opposite him was his cousin, his status was many grades higher than him.

If Izzat has a grudge against Tariq and wants to punish him, then Tariq can only accept it obediently and dare not complain.
