If the person who is most troubled by the ancient city is Holland, then the second person who is troubled is Reinhardt. The day before the occupation of the ancient city, he received the latest instructions from the Emperor Yus, and he must do everything possible to maintain the rule of the ancient city of Aogu by all means, which is not only to maintain the continental power structure demarcated by the ancestors, but also to protect the interests of the Yusi Empire. Although Horranst is also ambitious, after all, he is ambitious and talented, and he is a cold-blooded and ruthless politician, as long as such a person is given enough benefits to deal with. In the case of Alan Kanter, with his usual words and deeds full of sympathy and pity for the Godsa, it is difficult to predict that he will do anything against the Yuss Empire.

The Yus Empire has had enough trouble now, and the Holy See in the south and the orcs in the north make them feel overwhelmed, and they don't want to be drawn more energy by the ancient city of Oku. Therefore, the best outcome is to be able to convince the nomads to return to the grasslands to reap their own fire, and to maintain the balance of power between the two sides in the ancient city of Oku. Of course, the worst outcome is that Allen's side insists on going his own way and is forced to send troops, so the chaos must be calmed down in a short period of time, and it cannot be plunged into a long-term war.

"It's not easy to do!"

Reinhardt, who received the order, was very embarrassed. The negotiations he had worked so hard to mediate before were ended because of the Wolf Warrior Mercenary Regiment's sneak attack on Tiesong Town, and at that time, the nomads' requirements were very high, but they could still be satisfied, and now the situation is completely reversed, and the nomads have the upper hand, so how easy is it to let them withdraw from the army?

But this is the emperor's order, no matter how difficult it is, it has to be done. Reinhardt went to the castle of Agu the next day and met with Holland, who was surprised to see Herbert, who had already claimed to have retired from politics. The two sides talked for two hours before Reinhardt left, but he went directly to the barracks of the Cadet Corps without resting.

"I want to see Master Kanter!"

As soon as Reinhardt entered the barracks, he yelled at Stanny, who was in charge of hosting him.

"I'm sorry Lord Reinhardt, our head is not here, so tell me something. ”

Stanny replied quietly.

"I want you to withdraw your troops from the ancient city of Aogu immediately, where you come and go, and return to the grassland. How many weapons and equipment, war horses, food and grass you need, I will be responsible for solving them. ”

Reinhardt wants to solve the problem as soon as possible, so there is no nonsense.

"That's what was originally done at the mouth of the canyon, and it's no longer applicable. ”

Stanny did not hesitate to reject Reinhardt's offer.

"What are the conditions now?"

Reinhardt frowned and asked.

"The Ogu family must step down. ”

"Impossible! The Ogu family's rule over the city-state is the result of the deliberation of the three major forces of the human race, and anyone who dares to destroy this result is against the three major forces. ”

Reinhardt threw down a harsh sentence and left angrily, and the first negotiation ended unhappily.

"It looks like I can't go back before the New Year. ”

Back at the mansion, Reinhardt sighed when he saw the butler counting and sorting out the gifts he was going to bring back to Boulder. After returning to his study and consulting with Yus's envoy, he wrote two letters and sent them to his entourage to Capra and Nice.

"It is impossible for the nomads to back down without showing the determination of the Yus Empire to maintain the traditions of the ancient city-state of Oku. ”

Reinhardt said this to the envoy. As he had expected, when the defenders of Capra Pass began to conduct frequent reconnaissance of the town of Iron Pine, the Cadets began to invite Reinhardt to negotiate with him.

The nomads, the Ogu family, and the representatives of Yuss sat down again. Reinhardt acted as an intermediary on the basis of the nomads' withdrawal, which Stanny agreed to on behalf of the nomads, but at the same time proposed an astronomical demand for war supplies, including a war indemnity of one million gold coins. Of course, the representatives of the Ogu family did not accept it, so the two sides entered the stage of bargaining.

In the course of the negotiations, the military operations of the three parties did not stop, and Capra Pass sent 20,000 troops in the direction of Iron Pine in the name of military exercises, so that Harvey had to lead the newly formed reserve to closely guard this army, and at the same time, the city of Nice also sent 10,000 defenders to move west along the official road. In order to cooperate with Yus's demonstration of force, Quentin Ogu, who had previously gone to various villages and towns to recruit troops, also drove to the outskirts of the ancient city with a temporary army of 30,000 men, and demonstrated to the Youth League, by the way, expressing his determination to defend the interests of the Ogu family to the death.

As Yuss's army approached and Stanny backed down at the negotiating table, the terms of the two sides began to rapidly approach.

On the fifth day of the negotiations, Reinhardt slept lazily and did not get up as early as the previous day. Because the three parties had basically reached an agreement the night before, if there was no problem, the three parties signed the agreement today, and the KCU would withdraw its troops in accordance with the requirements of the agreement. All this was, of course, the credit of Reinhardt, so he was in a good mood to-day, and with the servant service, he even ate an extra piece of ham for breakfast than usual.

"Lord Qiqi, early this morning, there were citizens marching on the streets of Aogucheng. ”

After breakfast, Reinhardt changed into a neat dress and prepared to preside over the signing ceremony, but before he could leave the room, the guard suddenly came to report.

"Is it a holiday today?"

Reinhardt asked curiously. In Yus, only festival citizens gather and parade in the streets, and he is so busy that he thinks he has forgotten any important festivals.

"No, sir. The marchers came for the Ogu family. ”

The guard replied.

"What?"

Reinhardt finally realizes that something is unusual:

"Let's go, come with me and have a look. ”

Reinhardt had just walked to the gate with his escort when a crowd of marchers came outside the door.

"My lord, we have been wronged!"

"The Agu family is full of evil, and its sins are unforgivable!"

"My husband and son died at the hands of Holancest, please represent the Yuss Empire to uphold justice and justice for us!"

The marchers blocked the gate of the residence, and the women and children in the front row fell to their knees, crying bitterly and shouting for grievances.

"What the hell is going on?"

Reinhardt was stunned by the sudden scene in front of him.

"My lord, this is a joint complaint from the mercenary family's family against the Ogu family, look at it!"

A guard ran from the gate, holding a parchment roll in his hand. Reinhardt took the parchment scroll and unfolded it to see that it was full of the crimes committed by the Augus family over the years. At the top of the list is the Ogu family's grass and human life, artificially creating the entrance mechanism of Longshen Mountain, mutilating the lives of tens of thousands of mercenaries for hundreds of years. The second complained that the Ogu family abused congenitally frail teenagers and forced them to work as coolies in the mines, and countless teenagers were exhausted to death because they were overwhelmed.

"Militarily it doesn't work, so I want to use political struggle to bring down the Ogu family, but it's too simple!"

Reinhardt read them all one by one, and finally raised his eyebrows and said with a sneer.
