Chapter 1771 Reparations

Simmons Locke was angry.

His stiff, slightly handsome face was now slumped to the point where it was almost as close to a donkey's.

Those angry eyes stared coldly at the tip of the sword pointing at the door in front of me, then along the tip of the sword, at the sword-wielding, and finally, at the Bai family patriarch who was standing aside, stunned.

The sharp gaze was like bone-chilling ice, which startled the head of the Bai family, he first dodged this gaze in a panic, and after finding that there was no way to avoid it, he suddenly paused, lowered his head and pleasing his eyes, like an obedient minion.

As for the rest of the Bai family, they were already trembling uncontrollably.

I sat on the couch and looked at Simmons Locke's gaze, and it was only then that I suddenly realized that my majesty was still much worse than Simmons Locke's majesty.

My anger can only scare off the weak, but it will anger the high-ranking and powerful, but Simmons Locke's anger can shock the audience.

Could this be the majesty of the monarchy of the Simmons family, who have been nurtured for thousands of years?

If this is the case, how terrifying will the majesty of the Fairy Empress be?

I really can't think about it, and I can't think about it.

Simmons Locke didn't speak, but suddenly snorted coldly, which frightened the patriarch of the Bai family to bow down and apologize again and again, and shouted out the law enforcement team, and then continued to wait on the side, obeying the order.

Locke didn't pay attention to him anymore, and he didn't want to pay attention to him anymore, it was obvious that the Bai family patriarch's move could be said to be a big violation of the king's heart.

He sat on the sofa opposite, glanced at the phoenix uncontrollably, but was ignored by the phoenix again, embarrassed, he coughed lightly, and said, "Now...... Can you talk about it? ”

"What are you talking about?" I asked.

"Withdraw the troops," Locke said, "I want you to order the army to withdraw from the outer city." ”

"It's easy to withdraw troops," I said, "It's just a matter of words, but will it hurt the hearts of the army to withdraw like this?" ”

"Nothing?" Simmons Locke almost laughed angrily: "Your coalition army is simply a group of robbers, everywhere you go, whether it is a mansion or a mansion, has been looted, and you dare to say that you have gained nothing?" ”

"It's different" I shook my head and said: "What you said is called the spoils of war, I'm talking about compensation, fighting a victory, capturing a city, and before it is hot, I have to abandon the city and leave, and it is not because of defeat, but my withdrawal order, do you think, will this cold the hearts of the soldiers?" ”

Simmons Locke was speechless, he had to clench his fists tightly and resist the urge to beat me up.

After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, it's up to you, let's say, what do you want to compensate, how much do you want to compensate?" ”

Seeing that his eyes were full of anger, but he forcibly put on a look of being slaughtered, I wanted to laugh.

If you really feel so wronged, don't treat foreigners as slaves from the beginning, how can it happen often to be a bitch and want to set up a memorial arch!

Regardless of Simmons Locke's expression, I reached for the call crystal again and contacted Cagalli.

As soon as she connected, she heard Cagalli say in an anxious tone: "Xiao Yi, I heard what the old duke said, how are you doing now?" ”

"It's okay for now," I said, "what's going on over there?" ”

"Just knocked open the basement door of a noble mansion, guess what I saw?" Cagalli couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said, "Gold, jewelry, enchanted stones, and enchanted equipment, a whole basement!" ”

"Ahem" I coughed softly, trying to overpower her ecstatic voice, but to no avail.

Glancing at Locke, whose face was becoming more and more gloomy, I hurriedly said, "What, is the old duke near you?" ”

"Well, he's holding an enchanted piece and looking at it over and over again, as if he likes it very much."

"Tell him to talk to me."

Soon, the old duke's voice came from the crystal: "I actually have time to call the old man, it seems that your kid is fine." ”

"Thanks to you," I said, "but I have something to discuss with you. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Retire," I said, "I would like to ask you to retire." ”

"Retire the army, it's easy to talk about ......"

"Ahem," I cleared my throat again.

The old duke instantly understood, and said: "Well, cough, this retreat, it's easy to say, but it's not good to return empty-handed like this, after all, the army has come all the way here, and it has suffered hardships and tiredness, but it has not gained any benefits, and it will lose the morale of the army." ”

"Well, I thought so too, so I made a suggestion to the great lord of York, and he also felt that this was the truth, so he agreed to negotiate with you, about the matter of compensation, or you can talk to him?"

"Since Xiao Yi is the middleman, then the old man will be reluctant to talk to him."

With that, I handed the call crystal to Locke and said, "Your Majesty, the old duke wants to discuss the relevant matters with you personally. ”

Simmons Locke's face was gloomy like ink, and he took the call crystal in my hand tremblingly, suppressed his anger that was almost erupting, and began to talk to the old duke.

No matter how angry he was, he still showed considerable respect in his tone when facing the old duke.

After all, this is a legendary marshal who has fought with his father and grandfather.

The two of them discussed for half an hour before Simmons Locke handed me back the call crystal.

The old duke said, "Okay, it's settled." ”

"It's good to be negotiated," I smiled.

"Well, you can pack up your things and come back in a while" The old duke said: "It's not a matter to stay there all the time, in case there are a few more waves of nobles with no eyes, I'm afraid you will have to lose all the Simmons family's wealth, then it won't be fun." ”

"Alright," I said, "I'll go back after a little longer." ”

With that, he hung up the call.

Simmons Locke didn't speak to me, but beckoned to his entourage and helped him keep a list.

There is a lot of content on this list, including some valuable mineral deposits, and the last column, a huge amount of money.

After finishing speaking, he glanced at me fiercely, then turned to the Bai family patriarch and said, "These are all the troubles you have caused, and your family will be responsible for it." ”

The head of the Bai family took the list with a dead face, didn't even dare to look at it, saluted, and fled in disgrace.

"Are you satisfied?" Simmons Locke said in a deep voice.

I smiled and nodded, and said, "Your Majesty made a move, and it was really generous, and the kid was very admired." ”

Locke snorted heavily and said, "Since you are satisfied, please leave my country quickly, here...... You are not welcome. ”

"Don't say that," I spread my hands and said, "It's still the same sentence, the mountains don't turn around, if there is fate, everyone will still come thousands of miles to see each other." ”

Locke's eyelids twitched, and he almost fell to the ground, he exhaled heavily, got up, and left.
