Chapter 146: Diplomatic Disputes
Looking at the endless stream of wooden sailing ships in front of you coming in and out of the port, and the docks along the coast are piled up with boxes and boxes of goods, this is the real Chilian Continent. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The Imperial diplomatic fleet slowly headed for the docks, and the crowd along the shore stopped and watched.
Finally, under the guidance of the garrison in this area, they finally anchored in a military port.
Ding Lei shirked the diplomat's invitation and asked them to do it themselves.
This country is the territory of mankind, not the long-horned merchants.
Although there were frequent trade contacts with them, they did not send out invitations, and only gave the officials of the empire a cursory introduction to the customs and customs of the Xiachilian Continent.
Later, the Congress decided to go to the mainland to open up the market, so there was this uninvited diplomatic action.
The expeditionary fleet remained on the high seas, and the witches chose a secluded place to open the portal and then pick up the others ashore.
Ding Lei said that it is okay for the girls to go ashore for activities, but they must pay attention to safety, and communication crystals and teleportation crystals must be brought.
Eventually, at the moment of the exit of the 'Disband' order, everyone disappeared in place.
It seemed that they couldn't wait, Ding Lei smiled and shook his head.
He was now dressed in plain white armor, and next to him was wearing the armor of the Black Hawk.
The 'Minister of Defense' glanced around a few times, and after making sure that there was no danger, he turned his head and asked, "Where is Your Highness going to go?" ”
"Let's go around town."
"Let's go."
The figures of the two disappeared.
It reappears on a busy street, where people dress in similar costumes as in the Middle Ages.
People on the Empire side have begun to wear jackets and suits, a bit like modern European clothing.
For the two knights in armor who appeared on the street, the people passing by just looked up strangely, and then continued walking.
In addition to ordinary citizens, there are also soldiers patrolling back and forth on the streets here, and they seem to be a bit numerous.
"Hey! You two. ”
A voice came from behind, followed by a bunch of footsteps.
Neither of them looked back, and Adonis whispered beside him, "Leave or ......?" ”
"It's someone's territory here, and our outfit is really too conspicuous." Ding Lei turned his head and looked at the five soldiers in front of him who were wearing black half-body armor and no helmets approaching, and continued, "We still have to understand the situation here, especially whether there are high-level forces behind it. ”
"Who are you?!" The leader asked with a face.
The crowd around them stepped aside.
"A traveling merchant and his guards." Ding Lei took off his helmet as he spoke.
"Merchant? Bodyguard? Several people looked at him suspiciously, "Where is the merchant?" ”
"I am."
"You?"
Adonis next to him stepped forward and said, "Be polite to the young master of my family!" ”
Everyone had the same expressions on their faces.
The team leader said: "Since you are a noble son from outside, don't wander around here, especially wearing this armor." ”
"Tell me what's going on?" Ding Lei asked.
The other party looked at him with the expression of why I told you.
"If it's war, I have an army in my hands, you know what I mean?"
Everyone hurriedly summed up, and then the team leader respectfully asked, "Dare to ask which family you belong to?" ”
The change in attitude shows that the war here is a bit urgent, and they have to spare no effort to win over their allies, at the very least, they can't create new enemies for their lord like a mentally retarded person.
"Tell me, who are you fighting against?"
The team leader shook his head and said, "I need to know the force you belong to first, if it's an ally of the enemy......
"Of the Eternal Empire."
Everyone looked at each other, and finally all shook their heads, indicating that they had not heard of it.
Ding Lei pointed in the direction of the harbor and said, "The imperial diplomatic fleet has just arrived, if you have the ability, just ask up." ”
The leader immediately glanced at one of the soldiers, who hurried towards the harbor.
"Then come with me, both of you."
After the team leader finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the remaining soldiers stood behind Ding Lei and the others, and they had to not let the two suspicious characters walk around until the information was confirmed.
"Please." The tie flashed respectfully to the side.
Adonis looked at Ding Lei, who shrugged his shoulders and walked over first.
As the captain of the soldiers came to a barracks and put the two in a tent, the leader left.
"Next time you go out on the street, let's wear something normal." Ding Lei said while sitting on a chair in the tent.
After a long time, just when the two of them were about to teleport away directly, the outside began to be lively.
After a while, the curtain was lifted, and a large crowd entered, and the tent was immediately full.
Diplomats of their empire, captains of the Marine Corps, captains of ships, and representatives of merchants.
"See Your Majesty!"
Everyone knelt down and saluted.
Only a middle-aged man in uniform was left at the door of the tent, and his face was now covered in sweat.
"Get up." Ding Lei sat on the chair and nodded.
After everyone got up, the man in military uniform squeezed over and said, "I don't know if the Lord of the Eternal Kingdom is here, it's really ......."
Ding Lei waved his hand, turned his head sideways to look at the diplomat, and asked, "How do you know that I am here?" ”
"A soldier came to report that he had met two men claiming to be Imperial on the street, and after describing the marshal's Black Eagle Armor, we found out that you had arrived."
"And who is this?" Ding Lei looked at the man in uniform.
"I am the lord of Hurricane Castle, and I have just visited your warship, and I heard that my subordinates have neglected Your Excellency, please forgive me."
Adonis whispered in his ear, "The fleet on the high seas has just sent a message that several sail warships have approached in the vicinity, but after a warning shot, they have not come any closer. ”
"Blown up?"
"No, it just fired a few shots into the sea and scared them away."
This should be the reason for the lord Khan, as soon as the person who went back to report said it, and then the lord asked tentatively, of course the diplomat had to keep boasting about his main fleet anchored on the high seas or something.
Now that Hurricane Castle is at war, if you provoke another powerful enemy, you will end up with a dead end.
"Still looking forward to ......"
"No need." Ding Lei waved his hand and said, "For forgiveness, I'm more curious about who you are fighting with?" "The point is whether there are high-level forces here, we have to figure it out first.
"The people of the Antlers."
Antlers? Could it be ......
However, Ding Lei soon found that the representatives of his businessmen had something to say, and kept glaring at him.
"These guys aren't going to sell the ironclad to the people at Hurricane Castle, are they?" Ding Lei muttered in his heart. (To be continued.) )
