Receiving a letter from Zelda asking for conditional submission, Li Tianhao and his subordinates fell into deep thought. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Obviously, Zelda did not mention Gilmus by name in the letter, but demanded submission in his own name. It would be ridiculous to say that Zelda was planning to sell his master for glory, because if Zelda wanted to be prosperous and rich, then he could have come under Li Tianhao's command as early as the destruction of Yaji, and Li Tianhao would never turn him away, but he chose the most tortuous and difficult path of all. Someone like him would never have betrayed at such a last minute. Therefore, there are only two plausible inferences left, first, that Gilmus has fled, and Zelda has come to the letter as a proxy and bait to attract the attention of the Palci army; Second, it was a deceptive ploy, the intention of which was nothing more than to attract the Palchi army into the fortress of Baroud and annihilate it. Of course, this is only to increase the number of casualties of the Palchi army, and their greater purpose may be to snipe Li Tianhao himself.

There was not much disagreement between these two assumptions, and only Müller offered a different view. Muller believes that although Zelda has fallen into a dead end, he is not a military general who can play this kind of small trick, because this will not only not change the strategic defeat, but will provoke a strong retaliation from the Palchi army, not to mention that Li Tianhao will not fall for this kind of small trick, and there is no possibility of success in playing this kind of small trick, so the former is more likely.

"You're saying it's possible that Gilmus has fled?" Li Tianhao asked with a calm face. He was bound to get rid of Yaqui's royal family, and no one could convince him of his paranoia at this point.

Mueller shook his head and said: "The subordinates can't be sure of this matter, and the possibility of Gilmus escaping under the siege of our army is very small, but the possibility of a hundred secrets is still there." However, the subordinates can be sure of one thing, that is, we must send people to the Baroud Fortress as soon as possible to investigate the truth, and at the same time, we must strengthen the vigilance and search nearby. The subordinates are willing to enter the Baroud Fortress as the messenger of the peace talks, and ask the young master to give an order! ”

"No, you can't go, in case the other party has bad intentions??????"

Before Li Tianhao's words were finished, Mueller interrupted him: "Young master! Since we have to send peace emissaries, the risk of entering the fortress of Baroud is the same for anyone here. Subordinates think it's most appropriate for them to enter Baroud Fortress, don't they? ”

Li Tianhao was silent, in fact, Muller was indeed the most suitable candidate, Muller was once rescued by Zelda's father Ulysses, and he and Zelda also had several experiences of letting each other go, it can be said that he is the only one in the entire Palchi Army who has the best personal relationship with Zelda, and it is indeed the most suitable for him to go. In fact, of course Li Tianhao understands the truth of this, but at this time, Li Tianhao is worried about Gisaro's departure, and now his most trusted military general is about to go into danger again, which makes him temporarily lose his calm. But no matter how Li Tianhao said, he would not lose his rational judgment for his own selfish feelings, and after listening to Mueller's words, he no longer stopped it, and said: "Then please leave it to you, be careful." ”

"Yes!" Mueller's answer was simple and straightforward.

After being ordered to enter the fortress of Baroud, Müller clearly sensed the strangeness of the atmosphere, but he could not say what was wrong. When he arrived at the council hall inside the fortress and saw Zelda, this feeling was even more obvious, because Zelda could not hide the despair that could not be concealed.

"It's been a long time, Lord Zelda, don't come unharmed." Mueller spoke first.

Zelda raised her eyes to look at Mueller, lowered her eyes again, and said, "I guess Li Tianhao will send you to negotiate." ”

Seeing Zelda's languishing appearance, Mueller's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked tentatively: "Is His Highness Gilmus sick?" ”

Zelda's head bowed lower: "Lord Muller, please come with me." ”

With that, Zelda turned and walked towards the back. Seeing Zelda's lifeless back, Muller couldn't help but suspect that the person in front of him was not the Zelda he knew, but now he had to follow his footsteps to see what was going on.

After continuing upwards through four rooms, Zelda and Muller reached the highest room in the entire fortress. Even when he stormed the interior of the fortress, Müller had never been to this place. Zelda opened the door gently, turned back and said, "Lord Muller, Your Highness is in the house, please come in." ”

Müller stepped into the room, and it was clear that this was Gilmus's bedroom, and the décor was not ornate, but its specifications were undoubtedly of royal level. The two attendants stood motionless in the room, and Gilmus lay upright on the bed, silently.

Although he had already guessed in his heart that this might be the case, Mueller was still taken aback when he saw Gilmus's body with his own eyes.

His Highness realized that there was no chance of sparing this battle, and he did not want his subordinates to die for him in vain, so he committed suicide. When His Highness was dying, he asked me to submit a request for surrender to your army, and asked your army to allow it to surrender the city on the condition that the lives of all the soldiers in the city be guaranteed. ”

"What an amazing kid." Mueller said softly: "It's a pity that there is such a figure in Yaqui's royal family. ”

Zelda said, "Lord Muller, can I trust you?" As the envoy of the peace talks, can you, on behalf of Li Tianhao, accept our surrender conditions? ”

"Of course. A peaceful resolution of this matter that avoids casualties on both sides will be an outcome that both sides would be happy to see. We will ensure the safety of every soldier in this city, and we will give them sufficient severance pay. ”

"Thank you, Lord Müller. By His Highness's side is a surrender order that I have personally signed, and with this order you will be able to receive the surrender of my men. In this way, I have fulfilled my promise to His Highness. I have one more personal matter for you. In my room there was a baby boy named Amela Ham, whom I had with a woman named Yalta. His mother has passed away, and I hope to entrust this child to you, an adult. ”

Mueller heard the meaning of Zelda's words, and hurriedly said: "Lord Zelda, your war is over now, but this does not mean that your life is also over!" ”

Zelda smiled sadly and said, "Lord Muller, in fact, I should have been a dead man when Yaki perished. It was Lord Libera's entrustment that made me, an incapable person, assist His Highness, and I finally got things into the situation I am today, I am really ashamed of Lord Libera, and I am even more sorry for the previous kings of Yaki. As a subordinate of His Highness Gilmus, I did not follow His Highness underground, only because I have not fulfilled His Highness's instructions. Now, I'll leave everything to you, my lord. I'll be able to rest assured. ”

"Anyway, listen to me??????"

Zelda didn't wait for Mueller to finish speaking, and jumped towards the window. Muller jumped over to grab Zelda, but he was two inches away, and Muller could only watch Zelda fall rapidly from the top of the fortress.
