"Your Majesty, thank you for personally leading the army to help our Kingdom of Gilgias...... Meng Fan raised his glass and thanked the dwarf king Baz. "Lord Claude, the war between the Kingdom of Gilgias and the Kingdom of Fran has nothing to do with our dwarf race, and our people have never been involved in the affairs www.biquge.info of the human kingdom, and the reason why I will come to help you this time is because of Mar Saha's request. Buzz said, taking a sip from his glass and wiping his mouth.

"In any case, you have helped us defeat the Franish army, and I, Lord of Blackstone, Claude Kuru, would like to express my gratitude to your Majliness Bazz and the dwarven warriors who have fought against the Fran army. Meng Fan said. "Your Majesty Baz, from now on, within five years, Black Rock City will provide 100,000 catties of grain to the dwarven clan of the Fallen Pine Hills every year free of charge. ”

The Fallen Pine Hills are located in the northernmost part of the Qinglan Continent, due to the cold climate, the grain yield is not high, every winter is the most difficult time for the dwarves, and many dwarves will lack food and clothing in winter.

"Haha, then I am here to thank Lord Claude for your kindness on behalf of my people. The Dwarven King Baz said happily. 100,000 catties of grain can greatly alleviate the food shortage of the dwarf race.

"I came to the Kingdom of Gilgia with the Guards, and the old guys in Rift Rock are still trying their best to oppose me coming, and when you bring the food here, Lord Claude, I think the old guys will shut up as well. "The old guys Buzz is talking about are the dwarven elders of the Round Table Council.

"Your Majesty Baz, I have one more thing to discuss with you......" After a polite word with the Dwarf King, Meng Fan's tone became more cautious. "What's the matter?" Buzz took the wine glass and drank a large glass of wine, the dwarf race is really a race that loves to drink, and it didn't take long for Meng Fan to see that Buzz had already drunk four glasses of wine, and the dwarf king drank like water.

"Your Majesty, I would like to ask you and your guards to accompany me on the expedition to the Kingdom of France. Meng Fan and Tiberius, who were sitting next to him, and Mar Saha glanced at each other and said.

"Expedition to the Kingdom of Fran, Lord Claude, as far as I know, the situation in your Kingdom of Gilgias is not very optimistic now, the Kingdom of Brettan has sent a large army to invade, Lord Claude, you have just defeated the army of the Kingdom of Fran, you should not have more rights and wrongs." The dwarf king Bazz raised the wine glass in his hand and stared at Meng Fan and said, and the maid on the side stepped forward to fill Buzz with wine.

"Your Majesty, the Kingdom of France invaded the Kingdom of Gilgias, trampled on my territory, violated my dignity, and as the lord of Black Rock City, it is only natural that I should send troops to attack the Kingdom of France. Meng Fan said in a deep voice.

"Lord Claude, you don't have much territory army under your command, if you don't have the help of the Gilgidian royal army, you ...... alone" Shaking the glass of wine in his hand, Baz squinted at Meng Fandao.

"Your Majesty, I will persuade the royal army to join the campaign against the Kingdom of France, but first, I must obtain your promise from Your Majesty Bassh. Meng Fan replied.

"My promise?" Buzz turned his gaze to the dark mage Mar Sahar, who sat across from him. "Your Majesty Baz, Lord Claude is a lord with great ambitions, although the Kingdom of Brettan is at war with the Kingdom of Gilgias at the moment, this is a golden opportunity for us in Blackstone City, we have defeated the French army on the battlefield, and now is the perfect time for Lord Claude to expand his territory. Marsahar said in a hoarse voice.

After listening to the words of the dark mage Mar Saha, the dwarf king Baz tilted his head in his wine glass and thought, "Your Majesty Baaz, if you help me send troops to attack the Kingdom of France, then I am willing to provide 200,000 catties of grain for the dwarf clan every year for ten years, plus 3,000 barrels of wine per year." Meng Fan said with his hands on the table.

"200,000 catties of grain and 3,000 barrels of wine a year?, Lord Claude, can you produce so much grain and wine in your territory?" Horn, the commander of the guards, who sat next to the Dwarven King, looked skeptical.

"Of course, it will be difficult to come up with these things in the territory I own now, but when I take control of the Kingdom of Fran, it will not be difficult. Meng Fan looked at the commander of the Dwarf King's personal guard and said.

Raising his head, the dwarf king Baz stared at Meng Fan for a long time, and in the eyes of this young human man, Baz saw full confidence and fiery desire.

"Lord Claude, I'd love to get the Lance in the hands of Commander Gerald, the commander of the French Army. Buzz said slowly, hearing the words of the Dwarf King, Meng Fan knew that he had been promised.

"Your Majesty Baz, of course after we kill Gerald, I promise you'll get whatever you want. Meng Fan picked up the wine glass on the table and raised it high to the Dwarf King and said with a smile.

――――――――――――

On the walls of Black Rock City, after negotiating with the Dwarven King, Meng Fan invited the temporary commander of the royal army, Oram, to the city wall.

"Lord Claude, you have contributed greatly to the defeat of the French army this time, and I will write to His Majesty to show him your merits. Oram saluted Meng Fan, the lord of Black Rock City, with respect on his face.

"Thank you, General Olam. Meng Fan said with a smile, "Lord Claude, now that we have driven out the French army, please send this dwarf army ......away as soon as possible, Lord Claude," Oram began.

"The Dwarves have helped us wipe out the invading Francis, and His Majesty the Dwarven King has become my friend, so why are you in such a hurry to send them away?" Meng Fan said, putting his hands on the battlements and looking at the Dwarven army stationed outside the city.

"Lord Claude, the Holy See of Light does not allow the human kingdom to have any dealings with foreign races, and if the army of the dwarven race is allowed to stay in the territory of the Kingdom of Gilgias, it will cause the displeasure of the Holy See of Light. Oram whispered.

"If they are not satisfied, they are not satisfied, General Olam, I still need this dwarven army. Meng Fan turned around and looked at the royal army general who had the same hair color as himself and said.

"Lord Claude, what else do you need this dwarven army for?" Oram couldn't understand, all the 70,000 troops of the Kingdom of Fran were wiped out in the Kingdom of Gilgias, as the smallest human country on the Qinglan Continent, it was difficult for the Kingdom of France to organize a large-scale army to make a comeback.

"I need them to expand my territory for me. Meng Fan bluntly said what he thought in his heart. Hearing Meng Fan's words, Olam's eyes widened. "Mistress Claude, you ...... You're trying to invade the kingdom of Fran!" Oram said in surprise.

"That's right. Meng Fan smiled and nodded. "Lord Claude, without the permission of His Majesty the King, the lord cannot take the initiative to send troops to attack other countries......"

"General Olam, the law of the Kingdom of Gilgias stipulates that when the enemy invades, the lord has the right to lead the army against the enemy, although the French army has been defeated by us, but the war is not over yet, how can I tolerate these French people trampling on my territory without paying any price?" Meng Fan said coldly.

Looking at the youngest marquis of the Gilgias Kingdom in front of him, Oram knew that Meng Fan was not just to take revenge on the Fran Kingdom, Meng Fan had already said just now that he needed the army of the dwarf clan to expand his territory, and Meng Fan's ultimate goal was to invade the land of the Fran Kingdom.
