The Bai family was stunned for a while before he came to his senses, he did not answer whether to surrender at the first time, but asked me instead: "Are you playing with me?" ”

"Huh?" I frowned.

"Knowing that I am the Bai family in York, I will only be loyal to the head of the Bai family, and you still want me to submit to you, this is simply impossible" The Bai family glared.

"In this world, where is there so much absolute loyalty, a considerable part of it is maintained by interests, whoever has a higher price will be loyal to whom" I sneered: "The reason why you refuse to surrender to me is that I am afraid that there are only two reasons, first, my price is not enough, and I can't exchange it for your loyalty, and second, you are afraid that I will inform the Bai family patriarch of this matter and borrow his knife to get rid of you, I am right." ”

The patriarch of the Bai family lowered his head and was silent.

"I have to say that in York Hancheng, the price I can give will definitely not be higher than that of the Bai family patriarch, after all, your Bai family is also a tiger in York Hancheng, and my hidden power in York Han City is not even a weed, but can you guarantee that the Bai family patriarch will always attach importance to you and will never doubt you and snub you?"

With a chuckle, I continued: "You can't, because you know very well that the more powerful people are, the more suspicious they are, and they will doubt their parents, their wives and children, and they will also suspect a close minister like you, and if one day, you are suspected, snubbed, or even forced to go to prison, what should you do?" Is it kneeling in front of the cell door and praying for your master's mercy to spare you? Or are you disheartened and hiding in a corner waiting to die? ”

"I'm afraid neither of these is the best answer."

Picking up the teapot, he slowly poured two cups of tea, one was pushed in front of him, and the other was picked up by himself and drunk.

After putting down the teacup, I continued, "Since you can't choose either, why don't you take advantage of the moment and prepare another path for yourself to choose?" ”

"As my latent power in York City continues to grow and grow, if one day, when you are really cornered, maybe this growing power of mine can help you."

"Your ...... Strength? The Bai family looked at me staringly, and said word by word: "There is no evidence, how can I trust you?" ”

"This, you need to think about it yourself," I said lightly, stood up, stretched my arms, turned my head and said, "You have also been in the camp for a day, go out for a walk, breathe in the fresh air, and enjoy the pleasant night view here." ”

The Bai family did not refuse, got up, and walked out of the camp with me.

When the two soldiers guarding the camp saw that the Bai family had been taken out of the camp by me, they immediately followed.

We walked one after the other, among the coalition forces.

After dinner, the coalition army was sitting in groups of three or five to brag, the most presumptuous laughter was the dwarf group, the most silent was the elf group, the orc group was in the middle, neither silent nor noisy, but there were a considerable number of orcs wrestling.

Wrestling is not only a dueling method for orcs, but also their best sport.

For me, this kind of sport is no longer strange, but for the Bai family, it is a novelty.

He was like a curious baby, staring at the two sides of the wrestling, feeling the tense atmosphere on the field, his hands were unconsciously slowly clenched, nervous for the two people who were wrestling.

Seeing that he was fascinated, I could not bother, so I continued to walk around alone, and soon I found the freed slave girls and some half-breeds who had also been freed.

Some of the older mestizos, five or six years old, dressed in the loose clothes and trousers issued to them by the coalition forces, ran up to me, surrounded me, and thanked me.

Looking up at their mothers, the foreign women smiled and bowed to me, apparently at the behest of their mothers.

I crouched down and touched the heads of a few children, one of whom stood on tiptoe and whispered in my ear a thank you.

I smiled, took a handful of copper coins from my bosom, and handed them out to the children, who thanked them one by one and returned to their mothers with cheers.

Standing up, in the afterglow, I saw the Bai family members who were sneakily looking at the people here, I straightened my clothes, walked slowly to him, and said, "Have you finished wrestling?" ”

"Huh?" The Bai family paused for a moment, and then reacted: "Oh, I've finished reading." ”

"Well, let's go on with it."

With that, take him through the camp where foreign girls and half-breeds are stationed.

In the meantime, another smaller girl, spreading her little feet, ran up to me and pulled at my trousers.

I crouched down, and she leaned into my ear and whispered a few words, still thanks, but the words were a little choppy, and I thought that her mother should have taught her.

I nodded, took a silver coin from my bosom, handed it to her, and smiled, "Okay, I see." ”

The little girl ran back with joy and handed the silver coin into her mother's hand.

However, it was just this simple action, but it made the eyes of the Bai family on the side flash.

In many cases, if you want to create misunderstandings and illusions, you don't need too much embellishment, often a word, an action, an expression, or even a look is enough.

I believe that at this moment, the Bai family must have pressed the power that I mentioned in my mouth, which is lurking in York City and has not yet grown up, on the heads of this group of mixed-race children.

That's exactly what I wanted.

With the ill-sighted Bai family, we shuttled through the coalition camp for a week, and then returned to the prison camp.

"Let's be wronged here for the night," I said, "tomorrow after the handover, you will go back to York with the handover officer." ”

The Bai family didn't squeak and went into the tent door.

Returning to the main tent and sitting opposite the old duke, I sighed lightly and said, "Thank you for your support today, which made me angry. ”

"There is no need to mention the word Xie, you are also one of the commanders of the coalition forces, whoever carries out the handover work is the same, it is all for the good of the coalition forces, I just took this opportunity to sell my favor."

The old duke leaned slightly, leaned towards me, and said, "How is it, did you take anything useful out of that guy's mouth?" ”

I suddenly remembered that the information that recorded the Bai family had not been carefully read, so I took out the information in my arms, handed it to him, and said, "This is all the information of his confession, you can take a look at it first." ”

The old duke was also not polite, took the information, looked at it for a while, and suddenly laughed: "Simmons Locke, this kid is really interesting, he actually wants to build a joint army with Eri City, and garrison troops in a certain place for war." ”
