Section 35 Carter's Rise Envoy Nela
Upon his return to Hwaseong, Mozart immediately summoned Betty to discuss a plan to unite Nila, much to Betty's shock.
She frowned and asked, "I didn't expect Carter to make such a decision, he really dared to try." ”
Mozart replied as he counted the belongings: "When people reach the end of their rope, they have to change, and if they don't change, they can only wait for death, and this is the case with Knight now." The enemy of our so-called enemy is our friend, and although we were enemies with Nila before, they must think so now, unlike in the past. ”
Betty pondered, "But what if the Nila aren't wise?" Aren't you going to fall into the net this time? ”
Mozart smiled and said: "No, before the outbreak of war, your father and I visited Nila several times, and we often have business contacts with them in Huacheng, and they are very familiar with me and them, so they will not mess around." And I, Mozart, don't control Kate's military power, so there's no point in them killing me, isn't it? ”
Betty sneered and said, "But it's a war year, and all accidents can happen at any time, so let me go with you, otherwise I won't worry." ”
"You're going too?" , Mozart put down the booklet in his hand, frowned and asked: "But this is to go to the base camp of the enemy army, you are a girl, and you look so beautiful......"
Before Mozart could finish speaking, Betty immediately interrupted him and said, "What are you afraid of, I will take Barugel and the Knights on the road together." We don't have to go into the city, we just have a public meeting with the Nila people outside the city, anyway, this matter has to be done publicly, there is no need to sneak around. ”
Mozart smiled, nodded in agreement, and soon Hwaseong's team headed north, all the way to the territory of Seoul.
Dragon's army of Nila was mighty all the way, and under the banner of the envoy, the patrol of the Nila people followed from afar, watching them all the way to the vicinity of Seoul.
Hearing that the Knight mission was coming, Bedolia, the commander of Nila in Seoul, was overjoyed, and he seemed to see a glimmer of new hope when he had been struggling to find an opportunity to deal with the Tubis.
On the south side of Seoul, the honor guard of the Nila people lined up, several war elephants were dressed in colorful colors, and a large group of Nila women danced in front of them, which was specially prepared to welcome the arrival of the Nete.
Betty was a little surprised by the enthusiastic response of the Nila people, and seeing the lively scene in front of her, Betty knew that she was roughly ninety percent sure of the trip.
At the end of the welcoming ceremony, Mozart and Bedolia exchanged gifts, and finally sat down together and began to negotiate.
Bedolia was particularly enthusiastic, and he smiled at Mozart and Betty: "Come, come, try our Nila's dim sum, this dim sum is made from our Nila court, it is very exquisite." ”
Mozart smiled and nodded to Betty, Betty reached out and picked up a piece of cake, took a small sip, and then nodded and praised: "Well, the taste is indeed delicious, and the whole person feels very pleasant." ”
Bedoria raised her head and laughed: "Hahaha, Lord Betty is really good at talking, and it really deserves to be Betty of Huacheng, I finally saw it with my own eyes today." ”
Betty wiped her hands, looked up at the war elephants and said, "This is the war elephant that your empire is proud of, how can it be used as a decoration, it's a pity." ”
Bedoria was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Isn't this to welcome distinguished guests, I can't find a better team to rely on for a while, I laugh, I laugh." ”
Mozart was still thinking about how to open the topic, but Betty said directly: "With the strength of your Nirasi Expeditionary Army, if you go to attack Cobilon, how sure is Lord Bedoria?" ”
Bedoria shook his head and replied, "The Tubis have an army of 10,000 in Cobillon, and it will not be easy to capture Cobilon unless you Knight army cooperates with us, that is another story. ”
Betty sneered: "There should be a way to attack cities and plunder land, not all cities are blindly attacked. Your Western Expeditionary Legion has 30,000 troops, and you are fully capable of encircling Cobilon without destroying it, and the barbarians can't afford to spend it if they are trapped for a long time. ”
Bedoria nodded and smiled, "Well, that makes sense. ”
Betty continued, "If you want to capture Cobillon, the focus is not on how to deal with the 10,000 defenders of Cobilon, but on how to deal with the Tubis reinforcements from the royal capital and Widun. If you can besiege the city of Cobilon and at the same time repel the reinforcements of the Tubis, then sooner or later the territory of Cobilon will be yours Nila's. ”
Bedoria frowned and thought about it: "That's very good, but in this case, our troops are still a little insufficient, I don't know what your Knight is planning?" ”
Betty replied straight to the point: "You will attack in the direction of Cobilon, and we will be responsible for attacking Reesburg, so as to distract the barbarians, who will have to divide their forces in order to keep these two territories, and in the end they will not be able to do both." ”
Bedolia was also a shrewd man, and he looked at Betty and said, "But to the Tubis people, Cobilon is more important, and they may not have many troops in Risburg, but they are afraid that all the Tubis armies will come to Cobilon." ”
Betty replied, "Not necessarily, for Lysburg is relatively close to Yuguan and the royal capital, and if the barbarians lose Riesburg, their retreat from Knight will be exposed to us, and they are most afraid of the threat to Yuguan." ”
After listening to this, Bedoria praised happily: "Well, Lord Betty is really smart, then we don't have to go around in circles, if we have something to say, let's say it on the surface." ”
Betty nodded slightly at Mozart, and then ate the delicate snacks herself, without saying a word.
Mozart nodded and said to Bedoria with a smile: "Lord Commander, if your Nila Empire is willing to join forces with our Nete, as long as it is the land you have grabbed from the barbarians, including the current Seoul Territory, we Knight will recognize it as owned by your Nila Empire." If you accept such an agreement, then we will make an alliance and swear to fight the barbarians together and divide the land. ”
Bedoria was amused when he heard this, he felt that he was much more reliable with the Knight than the Beijung, and those powerful Knight Knights were more reliable on the battlefield. However, Bedoria did not show much excitement, because he had to hide this joy during the negotiations, which was at stake in the dignity of the Nila Empire.
Bedoria pretended to be deep and said: "Lord Mozart, you also know that we Nila have always been in urgent need of all kinds of materials from your Knight, and the output of a territory in Seoul alone is far from meeting the needs within our empire. As soon as this war comes, all trade with you Knight is suspended, and bread and iron are now in short supply in our empire. You see, now that we're all in this together, can we consider resuming trade between us? ”
Betty suddenly replied, "Yes, but you need to export some horses for us, and we will suffer as much as we do without horses." ”
"War horses?" Bedoria nodded, and then sighed and said, "Well, our Nila Empire is not as good as their Tubis and you Knight, there are no vast grasslands, no fertile plains, and horses are not very abundant. But rest assured, Lord Betty and Duke Mozart, that since we are working together in good faith, we will do our best to deal with the horses, and we will never let you down. ”
Betty bowed slightly and thanked her: "With the words of Lord Commander, then we are relieved." ”
Adoria smiled and said, "Thank you, Lord Betty, for your trust. In addition, I have a small request, our King is very fond of your Knight's drama and art, can you help us get some literary and artistic people, I want to dedicate it to Your Majesty, and make every effort to promote our alliance. ”
Mozart was overjoyed after hearing this, and nodded again and again in agreement: "No problem, it's a trivial matter, I'll go and prepare manpower as soon as I go back." ”
Betty ate her snack and looked at the Neela army lined up on the opposite side, and then said to Bedolia: "Prepare for a great battle soon, you should prepare more arrows, defend with infantry, and shoot the archers in line." The biggest drawback of the knightly army is that it cannot defend against the attack of arrows, which is the best way to deal with the knight army. ”
Bedoria nodded again and again, "Yes, Lord Betty is right, I'm still thinking about it." I didn't expect Lord Betty to have such a deep insight into marching battles, I heard that Lord Betty himself has a separate knight order, I don't know if it's true or not? ”
Mozart smiled and said, "Yes, Betty often takes the knights to train everywhere herself, how nice it would be if my daughter were a boy." ”
Bedoria looked up and laughed when she heard this, and she couldn't help but have countless respects for Betty in her heart.
The peace talks hit it off, and things went unexpectedly smoothly, and Bedolia signed an alliance agreement with Mozart without waiting for King Nila's consent.
On the way back, Mozart was in a very cheerful mood, and he said happily: "I'll just say, I, Mozart, and their Nila people talk about things, and there is nothing that can't be discussed." ”
Betty glanced at Mozart and replied calmly: "Father, don't be happy too early, negotiating with these Nila people will more or less affect our reputation." And these Nila people are not good people, we still have to be careful. ”
Mozart nodded, his mood was still unaffected, and he nodded again and again and said, "Okay, I'll be on guard." Now that we have resumed our trade with the Nila, I can send a human to buy our knight and sell their incense powder and ornaments. Ouch, my charming little incense powder, I haven't seen it in a long time. ”
Seeing that her father began to think about his money again, Betty was very helpless about this, she could not stop her father from being greedy for money like other nobles, after all, this is the greatest characteristic of all nobles.
Betty has a conservative view of the United Nila in her heart, she feels that it is like walking a tightrope, step by step, and if she is not careful, she may fall badly. Although Carter's approach is a bit extreme, if it is handled well, it will benefit Knight a lot, and it will be a good opportunity for Knight to recover from the country.
Carter, thinking of the name Betty is a little dazed, and his marriage contract with Carter will be fulfilled in the near future. What kind of person is he? Could it be that he can only marry this prodigy teenager in the end? Can you not do it?
These doubts have plagued Betty for a long time, and it is the most painful thing for her to know that her fate is not in her hands.
