Act 297 The Difference Between a Politician and a Lord

After telling his story, Bai Gang said to Dilitan:

"Don't just talk about me, let's talk about you. How did you become the Vice-Flag Captain of the Bloodkeep? If I'm not mistaken, you weren't on the list of vice-flag captains before. ”

Dilitan poured himself a sip of wine and smiled helplessly.

"Actually, you really can't know, because I only became the deputy flag captain ten days ago.

Not long after I got back from you, I joined the Blood Keep Legion, and although the church wanted me to be an instructor, it wasn't for me, and I've been working in the Black Feather Brigade ever since.

When the time came for our deputy flag captain to take office, we all wanted him to stay in office, but he really couldn't stand those young master soldiers and insisted on leaving, so I had to come up. ”

Dillidian sighed.

"To be honest, if it had been last year, my strength and experience would not have been able to be the captain of the deputy flag, and my real strength was far inferior to those above except for destroying the reputation of the undead portal, but now, hehe. Do you know what I do the most every day after becoming a deputy flag captain? ”

Bai Gang thought for a moment and said, "Go out to scout to ensure the safety of the Blood Fortress?" ”

"No, it's a prayer." Dillitian smiled wryly, "Pray that the undead don't show up in Echo Canyon." In fact, I don't really go deep into the Echo Canyon to investigate now, and I'm worried that if those young master soldiers know that the undead are coming too many days in advance, I'm afraid they will all run out before they can fight! Rather than this, it is better to get closer to the undead, and know the enemy situation more than a day in advance, and it is not easy for the young master soldiers to run if they want to. ”

Bai Gang looked at the two sentries who were sitting and chatting not far away, patted Dilit'an on the shoulder with a wry smile, and comforted:

"Rest assured, my troops will keep them in the north."

Dillidian shrugged: "Hopefully...... But in fact, we are also worried that if you do too well and leave us idle, the Seven Kingdoms will completely turn the Blood Castle into a noble hunting ground. If it really becomes like that, if one day you suddenly can't stand it, then the Seven Kingdoms will also be finished! ”

Bai Gang could only smile at this, but he really couldn't answer.

Being born in sorrow and dying in peace is more than just talking.

"Captain Dilition, you joined the Blood Keep Legion after you came back, so I don't know if you know the attitude of the Black Rock Kingdom towards me."

Dilitian looked at Bai Gang strangely: "The attitude of the Black Rock Kingdom? Why do you care about this? ”

After White Steel told him about the wedding, Dillidian laughed.

"It's the temper of those Black Rock people."

"The temper of the Black Rock people?"

Di Litean smiled and did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "Your country is very rich and there is no war, so it must be a professional politician in power, right?" ”

White Steel nodded.

Dillithian added: "Then it's no wonder you're weird. Unlike you, the Black Rock Kingdom is entirely up to the lords. Do you know the difference between professional politicians and those lords?

If you meet an enemy at a banquet, professional politicians will laugh and laugh with him, and then go back and think of a trick.

But the lords are different, they will punch the enemy directly in the nose, and if the enemy does not fall to the ground, then another punch!

Professional politicians don't go to war with a nation out of personal anger, but seven out of ten wars waged by lords are over personal issues.

So, judging by their attitude towards you, you did make them angry, but at least not to the point of going straight to the door and going to war. ”

Bai Gang said with a smile: "Is it because I defeated the Psychic Sacred Tower to save the Black Rock Kingdom from the threat of the undead?" It doesn't make sense, does it? ”

Di Litean poured himself another sip of wine and said, "To those civilians of the Black Rock Kingdom, His Majesty is like a savior, and the civilians of Black Rock I have come into contact with basically have this idea.

But for lords with a long-term vision, things are very different.

Look at the Blood Castle, it's only been the first year, and it's already been made into a miasma by them, and it's hard to imagine what will become of it in the future.

At the beginning, the Black Rock Kingdom turned the Blood Fortress into a fortress jointly managed by the Seven Kingdoms in order to resist the undead, not to let those sons and brothers gild!

Can you imagine what it would be like to be attacked by the undead!? If the Black Rock Kingdom were to take care of the defense themselves, it would be nothing, and their eyes would be very big. But those young master soldiers...... Do you think they'll care?

It is easy to hand over the rights and difficult to take them back, the Black Rock Kingdom has proposed to take back the Blood Fortress for its own defense, but the greedy six kingdoms will not easily agree, they will not let go if they don't bite off a piece of meat on the Black Rock Kingdom!

And before that, the Black Rock Kingdom can only pin its own safety on those young master soldiers and your Black Thorn Kingdom!

One is a group of gilded princes who don't understand war at all, and the other is a combination of a collapsed empire and ocean-going visitors who have been destroyed by the undead for hundreds of years.

None of the Black Rock people are trustworthy allies, and it's no surprise that the deeply insecure Black Rock Lords don't like you. ”

Bai Gang said with a wry smile: "Then, I hope to open up a trade route through the Echo Canyon here and trade with the Seven Kingdoms of the South......"

"Don't think about it in ten years." Dilitian said categorically, "You still want to make a hole in the already crumbling broken window, and those lords of Black Rock will agree to have a ghost!"

Unless you show great strength, strong enough to give them peace of mind that you can hold the undead at bay north of Echo Canyon!

But trust is mutual, and it takes a long time to build, doesn't it? ”

After listening to Dilitan's words, Bai Gang sighed again, if the Black Rock Kingdom had always had this attitude, then it was unlikely that the base would expand rapidly in the south in a short period of time.

Bai Gang was really helpless about this result, he didn't expect that he had only rescued the Divine Duze Empire, but it also had such a big impact on the Black Rock Kingdom.

Since the problem of trade routes was no longer resolved, Bai Gang's attention turned to the rich literature accumulation of the Blood Castle.

"I've heard that Blood Castle has a lot of literature about the undead, so I wonder if I can take a look."

"Of course, no problem, we leave a record every time we encounter a difficult opponent, and here are a lot of summaries of the experience of fighting the undead, all of which are open to the public and can be viewed by anyone.

But tomorrow I am afraid that it will not work, tomorrow Bishop Coriwende of the Holy See will come, and I will have to attend the ceremony to welcome him. ”
