Chapter 289: Reluctantly retreating
However, to the relief of Patriarch Kyle, for some unknown reason, Jason did not mention Willett in the course of this conversation.
But this made him feel a chill for a while, a person who will not be disturbed by personal feelings is the most terrible, and in some cases such a person can even abandon human nature.
It's just that what he doesn't know is that Jason has long had other thoughts and plans about Willett's trip to the Dolan Kingdom.
Could it be that letting her leave Lopez would dilute the relationship between them and make Jason give up?
There should be a day when Jason's army will sail to the Kingdom of Dolan, there should be.
Soon after, Jason and Patriarch Kyle reached an agreement on the distribution of the northern market, and the main content of the agreement was that the Kyle family would cede a portion of the market interests.
However, this loss is enough to make the Kyle Chamber of Commerce's arrangement in the north hurt, and they will not be able to compete with those local chambers of commerce without a long period of precipitation.
Jason could not tolerate a monopoly on his territory, and she was already preparing to rein in the Chamber of Commerce when Willett was still in charge of the Northern Market.
Because she knew very well that instead of waiting for Jason to make a move and causing them to lose a lot, it was better to take the initiative herself, and still retain most of the interests and the Chamber of Commerce enough respite.
It's a pity that her arrangement was maliciously destroyed by the Senate at the beginning, and when the Senate was dealt with, his father misestimated Jason's strength and intervened, causing her efforts to be in vain.
No one is perfect, no matter how wise Patriarch Kyle is, there are times when he makes mistakes, and the most important thing is that he despises Jason too much.
In fact, before this, the entire Kyle family had the illusion that Jason was developed by relying on the Kyle Chamber of Commerce.
..................................................................
A few months later, Jason received news that the Lion Kingdom had withdrawn, but they still occupied some of the towns in the Northeast, and although Gwendrin was forced to give in to Jason's conditions, she did not agree to give up the land she had occupied.
Unless the kingdom of Lopez paid a part of the price in exchange for it, but that damn Phil actually refused, and secretly ordered the Marquis of Asa to retake the land himself, and scolded him for not fulfilling his responsibilities as a lord, causing the land to fall.
This made the Marquis of Asa furious, and he fought bloodily with the nobles of the northeast, paying the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians to stop the army of the Lion Kingdom at the border of the kingdom.
But the kingdom's troops, stationed in the safe areas behind the battlefield, are now blaming themselves for not resisting the enemy, resulting in the loss of the country.
He had lived for decades, and for the first time he had encountered such a shameless person in power.
But what puzzled him was that it was clear that the Lion Kingdom had the absolute upper hand, and he and the noble alliance couldn't hold out for long, so why would they give up this opportunity to retreat?
This made the self-proclaimed witty Marquis of Asa puzzled, and in the end he could only silently prepare for a counterattack with a stomach full of doubts.
After all, although the Lion Kingdom did not agree to return the occupied town, this land did not border the Lion Kingdom itself, and if he launched a counterattack, the garrison here could only rely on the support of the Susin Kingdom.
However, it was a great headache for him that Gwendrin had left behind 20,000 troops here before leaving, as well as some of the craftsmen and slaves provided by the Susin Kingdom.
They plan to build a fortress here to contain the army of the Marquis of Asa, so that not only will the Susin Kingdom not have to worry about border problems, but also one of the most difficult enemies of the Lopez Kingdom.
It's just that Gwendlin's decision to withdraw this time has caused a huge controversy within the Lion Kingdom.
Even Gwendrin's staunchest supporter, the Andean knight, now the Andean Marshal, went to Gwendrin's royal tent to euphemistically express his doubts and grievances.
But at first, Gwendrin didn't explain too much, just said lightly that even if this land was captured, it would be difficult to defend, and it was better to withdraw the troops as soon as possible.
However, this explanation obviously did not satisfy the Andean marshal, who lost tens of thousands of loyal soldiers in this war.
Moreover, this war was originally to force Lopez to transfer troops from the Boulder Fortress, and at the same time, Garciari, who was lurking somewhere in the kingdom of Lopez, should join forces with the outside world, so as to achieve the goal of completely subverting Lopez.
In desperation, Gwendrin could only say that if this war continued, it would bring great trouble to the Lion Kingdom.
Once something happens to Graham, the wrath of the Scourge Knight will not only make Jason face disaster, but also cause disaster for the Lion Kingdom, because his identity is really too important.
It is related to a huge plan that the Deep Blue Cross has prepared for a hundred years, and once this plan is successful, the Holy See may not be able to continue to suppress the Deep Blue Cross.
Unless they bow down to the Eye of Truth for help, the higher-ups of the Deep Blue Cross are confident that they will be given enough power to destroy the Holy See.
It's just that Gwendrin didn't explain this information to the Andean marshal clearly, and it was enough to let him know that he had his own troubles.
Gwyndlin really wanted to hate Jason to death, his plan was disrupted by him, and at the same time, he had some hatred for Graham, and he was actually defeated at the hands of a person who was an ordinary person a year ago.
I wonder if I would be ashamed to let the natural disaster know about what happened here? After all, Graham was taught by him.
In the end, the Andean marshal did not pursue any further questioning, since the king had his own ideas and decisions, he had no reason to interfere and refute, and the surname of the country was Cameron.
"The bright sunshine and fresh air are a wonderful feeling that has not been seen in a long time. ”
Graham, who was brought out of the dungeon, probably not yet used to the sunlight, couldn't help but squint his eyes, and then took a deep breath in intoxication.
Behind him, Xia Zuo was also brought out by several Spartan warriors, and compared to Graham's heartlessness, his heart was greatly shaken.
How long has it been, and how can this young Lord Jason have so many terrifying henchmen under his command?
Lancelot and Ranmarok, who had just returned some time ago, stood quietly behind them to prevent the two of them from having bad intentions, like two mountains pressing on Xia Zuo's chest.
Hassan, on the other hand, still stood behind Jason with a smile on his face and said nothing, willingly making a shadow.
