Chapter 320: The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it
The Marquis Gonzalez returned to Sun Chengzong's residence.
He returned to his room and sat alone for a while, confident in the face of his grandson, but it was a reaction controlled by desire.
After calming down a little, he still has to assess the risk rationally.
Wu Xin and his gang should not be lying to him, the information they provided verified the judgment of the Marquis Gonzalez, as a high-ranking priest/mage, he has actually always had a little idea, Han Chuming's identity is undoubted, and there is great benefit in killing him.
But great benefits and great risks are the same thing most of the time, and the Marquis Gonzalez felt a lot about it.
Wu Xin's situation in the previous missions, he had basically collected everything, but this young warlock had taken a huge risk, coupled with excellent luck, to get to this point.
And in this mission, Wu Xin's performance impressed him even more.
Having spent months in this plane, the Marquis of Gonzalez felt a lot.
He was even a little amused by his optimism at first, thinking that with a treasure given by the emperor and the equipment collected in the family, he actually thought that he could easily dominate the situation.
Although the Kingdom of Spain is now majestic in Europe, the support he can receive in this sub-plane is very limited.
In fact, the emperor's attitude was also reserved.
Although the opportunity to capture a plane is precious, if the emperor is really determined to obtain this plane, he can invest more treasures, but this of course means the risk of losing the treasure, so the emperor actually adopts an opportunistic approach.
But that doesn't mean he won't be scapegoated, especially when it comes to taking Cortez.
Stayed in this subplane for a while. Not only did he gain an in-depth understanding of Wu Xin's achievements in this plane, but he himself was able to evaluate his future in the main plane from a new perspective.
Although Spain's foreign fleet was indeed the backing of these conquerors, the emperor's conditions were too harsh to establish a system of liuguan on the other side of the ocean, so that the first conquerors would not become feudal princes. It's really hard to give them and their descendants a little economic benefit, after all, he doesn't have a standing army of hundreds of thousands, and a strong fleet has too many enemies to deal with.
After all, those conquerors relied on a few thousand soldiers, single-handedly conquered a territory several times larger than the Spanish mainland, and wiped out millions of natives of the New World, and the Marquis Gonzalez knew that they would not obediently hand over power and put their fate on the conscience of the emperor.
Cortés was one of the best, the first empire to conquer the New World. A base was established for other conquistadors to move south, as well as an example.
In the face of the Emperor's ocean-going fleet, the probability of winning is very small, but the possibility of winning himself for a while and getting more trading chips is not small at all.
Putting aside the arrogance of the Spaniards, the Marquis González still had a clear judgment of his own abilities.
If he wants to keep his position of power, he must find another way, and this is what Han Chu's life carries. It's his lifeline.
The risk is high, but you can't afford not to fight.
Han Chu, who had figured out the situation, summoned his own personal team. That is, a member of the Spanish reincarnation squad.
Several Spaniards arrived quickly, only one arrived a little late, but this was normal.
"Why are you so slow?!" Although this is normal, the Marquis of Gonzalez asked in a fierce voice, "Is it not to climb the high branches and not to serve the Kingdom of Spain?" ”
The other Spaniards all had a playful expression.
"Lord Marquis. Listen to me, Lord Marquis. "I set out early this morning to inspect the eastern fortress, but the road near Xiping Fort and the Liao River is too difficult to walk, and I have rushed back as fast as I can. ”
He was covered in stains. And tattered boots, which confirmed his words.
Of course, there is no need for this evidence, the Marquis of Gonzalez also knows what he is doing, and he roars: "Sun Jingluo asked you to check the situation of the troops and the fortress, and also asked you to prepare the road, this is your responsibility!" ”
"I tried my best, I really tried my best." Iniesta prostrated repeatedly.
He did get the most thankless job, inspecting the outlying forts in the east of Quang Ninh, a job that no one was willing to do, not only offended people, but also did not do it well at all.
Those outlying fortresses are typical of all kinds of empty troops and all kinds of cutting corners.
There are also roads to be prepared, which are also insufficient materials and insufficient funds, which is completely difficult for the strong.
To deal with this kind of problem, at least a figure of Wu Xin's level must be strongly promoted, but it is not easy for Wu Xin to train Li Shizhong's army, and it is impossible to be distracted.
Without enough backstage, this kind of task is unlucky.
This unfortunate task was exactly what the Marquis Gonzalez had thrown to this hapless child.
Iniesta is the most talented spell-casting talent among the Spaniards, and just half a month ago, he cast a second-level magic, "Negative Energy Light".
After that, Iniesta took the initiative to take on that patrol task, because Han Chuming gave a good subsidy for this task, and he could get a lot of contribution points in the Mage Mutual Aid Association.
This makes the task not so bad.
However, after the Marquis Gonzalez and Han Chuming turned their faces, Han Chuming's Mage Mutual Aid Society no longer welcomed the Spaniards, and of course he would not continue to subsidize this task, but this task could not allow Iniesta to shirk it.
There is another task as well.
"Do you want to join the Mage Mutual Aid Society again?" As soon as Marquis Gonzalez's voice fell, Iniesta immediately trembled with fear.
"No, no, no, I didn't mean that at all, Han Chuming and I have completely drawn a line." He lay his head on the ground completely, and then swayed his face from side to side against the floor, "And he doesn't trust me at all." ”
"Draw a line? I don't trust you, that's not good. Marquis Gonzalez said jokingly, "If you want to regain his trust, I will help you, for example, you can tell Han Chu that Jinyi Wei wants to harm him." ”
Marquis Gonzalez continued: "And I am willing to provide him with protection, in exchange, he will give me ten scrolls of spells above level five, of which at least one is level seven spells and two are level six spells, and no bargaining is allowed. ”
"But I can't see Han Chu's life at all now!" Iniesta almost cried, "He won't see me at all." ”
"It's your problem." Marquis Gonzalez's voice was like an icy wind. (To be continued.) )
