The envoy of the Marquis of Apollon was silent for a while, and then said: "Your Excellency Earl, our Marquis of Apollon is really very sincere in wanting to reach a settlement with you, and you must also hope to conquer the city of Briek without blood, and we will help you break through the castle inside."

This Blackstone was not a bandit like the other soldiers, and he was extremely vulgar, and as the secretary of a former baron, he had his own way of doing things.

However, after being nurtured in the Blackstone Army for a long time, his thinking has also been greatly affected, and it is not impossible for him to know the things that are quite despicable and shameless in the eyes of the nobles.

When William heard this, he thought about it.

If he chooses to agree, then he can take Brijek City without blood, but if he opposes, if he wants to capture Brijek City, he will definitely pay a certain number of casualties.

What's more, although the Marquis of Apollon and himself had a lot of conflicts, they did not constitute a conflict of interest because of the distance.

William was a little moved, but he didn't show it, but made a deep groan.

He had already decided to let the Blackstone Army go, but he still wanted to shell out more benefits.

After all, it would cost him a lot of money to build two counties now, and after getting the entire kingdom, it would cost him even more money to build it.

Now for William, it is not difficult to get the entire Tskema Kingdom, basically the entire Tskema Kingdom is a leaderless state.

All the nobles were imprisoned in the city of Brijec, and William wanted to capture it in order to give himself a legitimate reason to inherit the throne.

After eliminating Duke Bunkerson, he can not only get the Kingdom of Tskema logically, but also be able to take the territory of the Duchy of Bunkerson into his hands.

"Alright then!" William said, "But you have to hand over all the commissions paid to you by the Duke of Bunkerson, which is one and a half million silver coins!" I'll let you go! ”

William's words were astonishing, which surprised the envoy of the Blackstone Army, he thought that even if William was asking for benefits, it was the same as the Iron Forest Legion, after all, they also opened a bargaining chip to help William fight.

Unexpectedly, William still offered such a high price.

The envoy of the Blackstone Army was stunned for a moment, and although his face was inevitably ugly, it was not too obvious.

He made a noble salute and said, "Thank you for your understanding, Count William, and I will convey your terms to the Marquis of Apollon in full, word for word." ”

"Good!" William smiled, "Go back and tell the Marquis of Apollon that even if she chooses to refuse, it won't bother me at all!" ”

"I don't think a few thousand troops are nothing to my troops!"

William didn't wait for him to answer, and said, "Alright, you can go back to the errand now!" ”

The messenger of the Blackstone Army seemed to have something to say, but in the end he did not say it, and the two of them saluted at the same time, and then left William's camp.

The two returned to the castle through the gondola again, and without passing anyone, went directly to their master.

After learning the news conveyed by Canon, the Marquis of Clotton was quite satisfied, and it was not unacceptable to pay 500,000 silver coins, as long as they all went back safe and sound, it was nothing.

The Marquis of Apollon was much worse than him, that was a wealth of 1.2 million silver coins, which meant that all the efforts of the other party in the past four months had been in vain.

And they still have more than 700,000 silver coins left, which is already cheap.

And the envoy of the Blackstone Army also went to the Marquis of Apollon's room as soon as he returned, and reported William's attitude to the Marquis of Apollon.

When the Marquis of Apollon heard the messenger's message, she was furious, and she said in shock and annoyance: "What? He even asked me to pay the entire commission? ”

"It can't be!" She yelled in annoyance, and then she gritted her teeth and whispered, "I offered a bargaining chip to help him break the city, didn't you tell him?" ”

"Of course, my Marquis, of course I will convey such an important matter to Count William!"

"But he still hasn't changed his mind, and says that the average number of us has not yet caused them unbearable losses!"

The Marquis of Apollon slapped the table angrily and shouted, "How dare he humiliate me so much!" ”

But after some venting, she sat down in her chair weakly and drove the messenger out, her hand on her forehead.

These things made her feel exhausted, no matter how arrogant and vicious she was usually, but it couldn't change the fact that she was just a woman.

She always has a weak side, William is right, now she has a request, what price the other party offers, as long as she wants to live, then she has to accept it.

"Your Majesty, the envoys of the Marquis of Apollon and the Marquis of Cloton have returned, and it seems that their trip has not gone well, but I don't know what they said later, but I heard the roar coming from the room of the Marquis of Apollon."

A man who appeared to be just a valet stood humbly beside the Duke of Bunkerson, who, though he had not yet been crowned, still regarded himself as a king.

The valet was the one sent by the Duke of Bunkerson to spy on the Marquis of Apollon, and he was also the head of the spy in the city of Brijec.

Duke Bunkerson waved his hand and said, "I know, go down, keep an eye on them, and report to me as soon as they make any moves!" ”

The valet saluted and walked out of Duke Bunkerson's study.

The next day, the two messengers again went outside the city through the hanging baskets at the head of the city.

This time, they brought the sincerity of reconciliation.

"Lord Earl, my master has agreed to all your requests, and I hope you will see his sincerity!" ”

William smiled, then said, "Is it all?" And that includes you? ”

Kanoen was stunned for a moment, then smiled shyly and said, "Yes, my lord, if you don't mind, please accept my allegiance to you!" ”

"Hahaha!" William laughed, waved his hand and said, "No hurry! Wait until this is done! ”

Then he asked the messenger of the Blackstone Army, "What is the situation on your master's side?" How did he reply to me? ”

The envoy of the Blackstone Army said: "My master has also agreed to all your conditions, Lord Earl, not only will we pay 1.2 million silver coins, but we will also help you break through the castle when you attack the city!" ”

William nodded and said with satisfaction: "Very good, your master, the Marquis of Apollon, has made a very wise decision!" ”

"She won't regret it! Because he's going to leave here with everyone safe and sound! ”

William raised his eyebrows, made a high-spirited appearance, and said arrogantly.

Then, William said to Canon, "You should go back first!" Convey my arrangements to the Marquis de Clotton, and come back to me when this matter is over!" ”
