[Thanks to the 'Hu Xiaoder' brothers for their reward, the disciple is within reach......]

For a while, everyone's eyes were focused on Shi Qian. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

When the spy retreated, Shi Qian took the initiative to say:

"My lord, news has come from Charlotte that Archduke Bellas and Archbishop Allen have given full authority to Baron Fielding as an ambassador for negotiations. At the same time, there is bad news......"

Link shook his head and said categorically:

"Say it!"

Shi Qian pondered his tone for a moment and said softly:

"Count Richard, led 10,000 Lionheart Knights, broke through the blockade of the undead, and was the first to enter the capital of King Stein, and was ceremoniously welcomed by King Sinclair III of Stein, and the Pope of Light also expressed his appreciation for it in official documents, and it was even possible to promote Bicester to a duchy, and the position of Count Richard to be promoted to an archduke."

Suddenly, everyone looked at Link, even the dullest people knew that Link was Richard's younger brother, and that they had been driven out of Bicester and even hunted down for a period of time, and the contradictions between the two could not be reconciled at all.

Link only shook his head slightly, and sighed:

"Even so, if Richard wants to establish a principality, I'm afraid he must make outstanding contributions in the decisive battle of the undead and the path of light!"

Then, he couldn't help but scratch his head and said:

"It's incredible! Has this guy's Lionheart Knights actually reached 10,000? ”

Link's heart couldn't help but sink, after all, it wasn't 10,000 pikemen and 10,000 heavy infantry, it was 10,000 incomparably powerful Lionheart Knights, the famous third-order troops.

However, this is just a little thought, Link is not angry about this, only he knows that he is a Link who has crossed over, even if he can't isolate the bloodline, but he doesn't have any feelings, so he said directly:

"Whatever, as long as I want to be my enemy, even if he becomes Archduke Richard, he will not still be beaten. Besides, didn't we just beat up Grand Duke Bellas? ”

Everyone laughed, and Zhu Wu and Xiao Rang stood up and asked:

"My lord, do you have any instructions for our negotiations?"

The council chamber fell silent for a moment, and Link stood up and paced, and after a long time, he said:

"I will only say three points, the first point is that the Duchy of Bellas must compensate us for the war losses; Second, if the coalition ships were to survive, they would have to bleed; Third, Audington and Morinen must pay a ransom to be released. Of course, those noble officers of other cities don't have to bother with the Grand Duke of Bellas, and can let those cities send envoys, first, we can divide and win them over, and second, we hope to lead the current trade routes are still too few. ”

Zhu Wu and Xiao Rang glanced at each other, nodded at the same time:

"Yes!"

……

It's noon!

Surrounded by a group of aristocratic officers, Fielding entered the Taiping Pass, and this time, he looked magnificently dressed in aristocratic clothes, and had another aristocratic majesty.

Beside him, a group of noble officers looked at the great Hope Leader, and one of them sighed:

"It's a pity, if such a large peninsula becomes a farm, how much harvest can it have in a year?"

Others chimed in:

"That's right, no wonder I want to be so tough, but I don't want to be caught!"

"No, it's not small compared to the territory of one of our big cities."

"However, Link, as a baron, is indeed a bit out of the rules to sit on such a large territory!"

Fielding sneered and spoke:

"Rules? What are the rules, power and army are the rules, if this territory belongs to your family, then, can you guarantee to withstand the attack of 100,000 coalition troops? I'm afraid, even my own territory will be difficult to protect! ”

Fielding was not very popular in the first place, and was able to serve as the number two man in the coalition army before, thanks to his role as the chief logistics officer of the coalition fleet. However, now seeing that he is the existence of being a scapegoat for defeat, naturally some people are not convinced, so there is a strange voice of yin and yang in the crowd:

"Fielding, you better think about how hard it is to protect yourself!"

Fielding's face was cold, and without saying a word, he stepped into the city gate of the Hope Leader, in front of them was a team of 100 flying leopard riders, flanked by two teams of silver spear archers, that mighty momentum made some timid officers chill in their hearts, no wonder they could resist 100,000 coalition troops, this is an elite army!

Zhu Wu and Xiao Rang greeted Fielding inside the city gate, which can be regarded as a faux pas, but Fielding did not say anything very consciously, but said to Zhu Wu and Xiao Rang:

"My lords, may I meet Baron Link?"

Xiao Rang smiled humbly and said indifferently:

"Your Excellency has been sleeping all night, I'm too tired, and I'm resting now, I'm afraid I won't be able to meet with the coalition negotiating team."

Zhu Wu also nodded and said:

"I'm afraid you don't know yet! Commodore Aaron completely ignored the goodwill of the Legion of Hope and tried in vain to lead the coalition warships to break through the mouth of the Red River, but unfortunately, under the powerful counterattack of the Legion of Hope, it has now been defeated, and even the "Princess Lucy" in Bellas City has suffered a certain amount of trauma. ”

Obviously, Brigadier General Aaron did not inform Fielding and the others of this news, so even Fielding's face changed, not to mention the other members of the negotiating team, and some aristocratic officers who were already at odds with Port Stuart, immediately opened their mouths and said angrily:

"Aaron, that guy, he definitely did it on purpose."

This is not unfounded, after all, the fleet of Port Stuart is now suffering heavy losses, and during the time when Morinin led the warships, the fleet of Bellas City was basically intact, and now it is the turn of Commodore Aaron to call the shots, and Bellas's fleet should suffer.

In the eyes of these nobles, this is not suspicion, but human nature.

Fielding nodded with an unkind face, and then, to one of the officers, commanded:

"Berne Jones, you now rush to Brigadier General Aaron's flagship and inform them that the Grand Duke and the Temple have jointly issued an armistice order, and from now on, the coalition forces and the Legion of Hope have entered a ceasefire phase, and if the negotiations break down because of his rash start of war, he will have to bear all the responsibility."

Colonel Jones nodded, and Fielding gave in to Shaw:

"I wonder if we can send a warship so that Colonel Jones can inform Brigadier Aaron more quickly, after all, everyone is very eager for peace now."

Xiao Rang nodded and said with a slight smile:

"For the sake of peace, these are all taken for granted."

After some chatter, everyone entered the yamen of Hopeling, and just as they sat down, they heard Baron Fielding take the lead and say:

"Ladies and gentlemen, for the sake of peace, shouldn't we be honest......
