Chapter 260: Who Gives In
"Are you sure you're going to behave in such a rude way to me? Lord Mordred! As a knight under King Arthur, aren't you afraid that you will kill me and cause the Roman Empire to invade?! Can you afford it?! "Gaullius was also a powerful foreign minister sent by the Roman Empire, and Mordred's sword against his neck did not cause him too much panic.
reacted quickly, and at least Golius did not fall into a bit of a disadvantage in terms of momentum. Under the threat of Mordred's life, he was able to pull out the tiger skin of the Roman Empire as an overcoat, in an attempt to deter Britain and force them to make a choice as soon as possible. This is just like the Citigroup country in later generations, relying on its hegemony to threaten with force at every turn.
Gaullius thought that while Britain had defeated the legions of the Roman Empire, it was nothing. Because the Roman Empire never cared about those armies at all, the Roman Empire never took Britain seriously, because the difference in national strength between the two sides was not half a star. As long as you get serious and invest more soldiers, then Britain will be powerless no matter how much it tosses. Waiting for the end of Britain is only a dead end.
In Gaullius's opinion, his proposal was simply too friendly to Britain. All you need to do is submit to Rome to avoid the danger of annihilation, so why not? It's better to settle peacefully than to have a brutal war that leaves corpses all over the place.
When he said this, Mordred suddenly felt a little helpless with his sword. A very sharp person, once he has concerns, he can't help but be a little forward-looking. Mordred's concern was naturally her father's own, and she was afraid that she would kill this Gaulius rashly and bring disaster to her father. Mordred's gaze rested on Artoria, who was waiting for her father's instructions and arrangements. This kind of design of national affairs can only be acted upon when the will of the father is determined.
"Look at this, my king...... Mordred, look at you, why are you so reckless? Quickly release the noble envoy of the Roman Empire, Lord Gorius. Dagonit, known as the clown among the Knights of the Round Table, replied in place of Arthur Artoria. He's a villain who survives by slapping Artoria's ass, and he's quick to take every opportunity to get ahead. Now, he tried to help Artoria out of the siege in this way (at the expense of Mordred).
"Mordred, why don't you put down your sword quickly?!" Golius said again. After saying that, he smiled at Artoria with a flattering face, "My king, you see, how good is this? ”
Now it is destined that this opportunistic villain will be slapped on the horse's ass. It's not because Mordred is Artoria's son or something, as long as he is a king, he will not let the envoys of other countries spread wild on his own territory. Not to mention, such a great monarch as Artoria. As soon as this Gaulius came, he opened his mouth and closed his mouth to persuade Britain to submit to Rome, which undoubtedly violated the bottom line in Artoria's heart.
It's okay to lose the peace talks, as long as you don't take the initiative to fight, I can still be a good friend. Once the soldiers meet, they are still so ashamed to say that they fail?
No wonder the Roman Empire is now in decline like this, with such an eye above the top, and still regards itself as an unbreakable overlord! I can't tell the difference between the times.
"Dagonit! Don't say that in the future! Artoria's words made Dagonit, who had just been jumping and happy, feel cold, and he didn't know what he had done wrong, which made my king so angry. In the past, he made sycophants and jokes, and Artoria was happy.
He didn't know that Artoria used to laugh, just because he was ridiculous. Not surprisingly, his ridiculousness was able to sway it.
"My king, I'm me, I'm ...... What am I doing wrong? I'm thinking about you! For the first time, Dagonit was reprimanded like this by Artoria, and he was at a loss for a while.
Ignoring the trembling Dagonit, Artoria glared at Golius with murderous eyes.
Word by word, the king's words reached the ears of everyone present.
"Britain will not be a vassal of any country! Just like the Celts of Britain are not enslaved by any race! We have the determination and courage to burn all the stones. ”
"If you Romans are determined to conquer Britain, then come! If we can defeat you once, there will be a second and a third! A hundred years ago, Britain was enslaved by you Romans, for the first time and for the last! ”
"If you speak so disrespectfully in front of the king, then you will lose your life to comfort our fellow Celts who have lost their lives in centuries of chaos!" Artoria's words pierced Gorius's heart like a knife.
After Artoria's words were finished, everyone was stunned. It was expected that she would refute Gaulius directly without giving face, but the tone was so tough that everyone couldn't have imagined.
I was stunned for a few seconds, and in an instant, fierce cheers erupted in the hall. As if cheering for the king, the knights present were cheered up by Artoria's words.
Under such a scene, the originally proud Gaulius suddenly wilted and became empty-hearted.
Looking at Mordred, who was still holding the sword against his neck, he smiled weakly, "It's all my fault, I didn't recognize the situation, King Arthur is very popular, so naturally he won't care about me in general." ”
In a threat to his life, the high-spirited Roman envoy bowed his noble head.
