Chapter 45: The Housekeeping of the Princely City. under

"That's why I'm looking for you, if your Kingdom of France joins forces with our Holy Roman Empire...... I don't think it's a difficult thing to do. After saying that, Elander sneered. The impression that King Pullen had given him during the negotiations had irreversibly become a solitary and arrogant clown, and for such people, the Holy Roman Empire had never negotiated**. “

The afterglow of the sun shone on the two of them, which should have been warm sunshine, but in front of the strange smiles of the two envoys of the great powers, it gave people a chill to the bone.

Torrance: "That's exactly what you planned, you, known to outsiders as the Eagle Dog of the Empire, are as ruthless as ever." “

Elander sneered, "The city of Pullen is guilty, and King Pullen is arrogant and kills himself. They thought they would be able to avoid it by hiding on this remote island, but they never considered that it would be easy for our two countries to join forces to destroy his small city-state of 10,000 people. “

Torrance said: "Although the city of Pleon is sparsely numbered and has few troops, all of them are elite. Have you seen these patrolling guards? Their armor and weapons are all uniform, and this is the first time in 300 years that a man and a country have been able to achieve a high degree of militarization since the sun set in the Roman Empire. I think it's best not to underestimate the city of Puren. “

After speaking, Torrance glanced around, and then said in a low voice: "The soldiers of the King of Pullen are elite, but they are not invulnerable. Their numbers were their greatest soft point, and although they were well fortified and well-armed, the five thousand soldiers scattered between the two cities of Puren and Pandora could not join forces, and they could only be broken by cutting off the connection between the two cities from their waists. “

"Oh?" Elander raised his eyebrows slightly, and then spoke: "So...... Did you say yes? “

"Your Holy Roman Empire is still worried about money, let alone one acre and three points of land in our Kingdom of France?" Torrance said with a solemn look in his eyes and a sneering expression on his face. "It's said that it's a cheap sale, but that doll is a year's worth of national tax from us here, not to mention His Majesty the King, even that group of nobles can't agree." “

"And you're still asking for installments?" Elander asked curiously.

Torrance said, "Is there anything strange about this? Your Third Legion is trapped in the Black Forest, and our Royal Praetorian Guard is stuck in the mountains of the Iberian Peninsula. You will defend against the Danes in the north at any time, and we will warn the Moors to move east at any time. In this situation and under these conditions, we in France also had to make some compromises. “

"I see, you old fox has the same calculation as me. They all plan to use the four months of this winter and next spring to sweep away all the things to be dealt with in the country, and then gather troops to capture the city of Pulun in one fell swoop, right? Elander sneered.

Torrance grinned, revealing some black and yellow teeth: "The royal city of Pullen can earn nearly 100,000 gold coins from you and me by virtue of the export of weapons, and if it is not eradicated as soon as possible, it will become a threat to us French sooner or later." In addition, their king wants to buy hundreds or thousands of horses from us, although nominally for agriculture. But...... That little doll also underestimated us too much, and underestimated his own ambitions too much. Such obvious intentions, and those eyes full of ambition. It is destined that he will not be willing to be mediocre in his life, I am afraid that he is staring at the throne of the British Isles at this moment and indulging in it. “

"What about you? Will the gold coins be paid for these months? Elander asked.

"Ask us? Then do you Holy Roman Empire really plan to give this little baby hundreds of war horses? Torrance asked rhetorically.

Then, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Almost at the same time, they said, "Send, of course." The more we send during this time period, the more we will get in the future. ”

Elander said, "We, the Holy Roman Empire, will send four hundred and twenty medium-sized horses and eighty high-quality horses from within the country. On the other hand, the royal city of Pleon will give us the equipment of thousands of soldiers, as well as the weapons and armor of hundreds of elite guards. Then, by the middle of next year, when our Holy Roman Empire has settled the matter in the north, it will send its navy from the port to land and raid Pandora from behind them on the Shapele Strait! ”

Torrance said: "Then our Kingdom of France will also land on the east coast of London at the same time, and if necessary, we will join forces with King William II of England and ask him to send an army to assist us in attacking the city of Pleon directly!" When the time comes, the convergence of your and my armies will inevitably become an encirclement, and the skills and craftsmen in the King of Pullen and the harbor city of Pandora will belong to you and me sooner or later. ”

However, the specific matters need to be reported to His Majesty the King before they can be decided. I intend to depart for Paris as soon as the negotiations are completed in the afternoon. ”

Alander nodded, and so did he. "I'm going to do the same, but I'd like to leave tonight, because Frankfurt is almost eight days away, and even if it's by water, it's about five days. You have to speed up your pace. ”

Next, the two discussed some specific matters for a while, and then left with their respective guards.

As for what these two men said in detail, almost no one knows. Even the envoys of the two countries have reached a preliminary agreement to jointly besiege the royal city of Puron in order to plunder the technology of the royal city beyond this generation.

At a time when the royal city of Pullen and the British Isles were in the midst of a storm, no one expected that an even greater storm of war was already coming.

And this storm was so terrible, so powerful, and so wide that it could rewrite the history of the whole world.

………………………………

Afternoon.

The royal city of Pullon formalized a trade agreement with the emissaries of the Holy Roman Empire, as well as the emissaries of the Kingdom of France.

The two sides signed the "Profa Trade Pact", under which the city of Pulen will provide thousands of sets of standard leather armor and hundreds of elite armor for each country over the next six months. On the other hand, the two countries will continue to import financial support and war horse resources to the Puren King City.

This agreement came into force from 2/01 to 2/07. That is, from January 1187 to mid-July 1187.

After the event, King Pulen also held a special celebration to celebrate the biggest order ever made in the city of Puren, and that night the city was completely immersed in a welcoming atmosphere, with all kinds of fine food and wine constantly being moved out of the table, and welcomed from night until the next morning.

After the guests and hosts had enjoyed themselves, King Pullen and his men personally came to the port to see off the two envoys.

Earlier, King Puron had given each of the two envoys a sword in his own name, both of which were fine swords made of steel, and even in the city of King Purun, they were the best of the best. And King Pullen gave these two swords to each other so generously, and said so jokingly.

"If one day I need them, please come to the royal city with these two swords to help me."

After saying that, King Pullen laughed.

Elander and Torrance laughed as well, and the three of them stood on the dock and let out a shrill laugh, causing everyone around them to look at each other strangely.

Almost everyone thought that this was the first step towards an initial friendship between the three kingdoms, and even Ni and Cassius felt this way, believing that in the future, the Pulon Royal City was likely to use this trade relationship to gain the support of the two European powers, so their faces were full of happy smiles at this time.

However, while everyone present was smiling, the silver-haired woman standing behind King Pullen remained silent and did not say a word. Her eyes, hidden under the bangs on her forehead, stared ahead with a cold light. The corners of her mouth were slightly curled, and the index finger of her right hand rested lightly on the hilt of her sword, and she always maintained a posture of full vigilance from an angle that was invisible to outsiders.

However, at this moment, one of the hands behind King Pullen's back waved slightly.

King Pullen turned his head and grinned at Yania behind him, his face full of smirks, his eyes glowing with the same cold light as Yanya, and even the forbearance of murderous intent.

After King Purun and Yania's eyes met in mid-air, Yania suddenly understood the king's thoughts and thoughts.

I see, if that's the case, then as the king's knight, there is no need for me to do something superfluous. It is enough to choose to support and stand firmly on his side at this time.

Thinking of this, Yania lifted the frost on her face and looked up instead, smiling at King Pullen.

Oh? It's so easy to understand my intentions, and it's worthy of Yania. Bedron. Clean. I am considered to be the only woman who is qualified to inherit my royal city of Pleon. However, since you have understood, then accompany me to see this scene to the end, the stupid two wild boars fell into the hunter's trap and did not know it, it is so pitiful that I want to vomit.

King Pullen and Jania opened their mouths at the same time, baring their white teeth and laughing at Elander and Torrance, who responded with the same smile.

"Hahahaha, hahahaha!"

"Wha

"Hehe......"

"Hey, hahaha, ah, hahaha!"

Half an hour later.

On the sea, two large ships set sail.
