Negotiations reopened on the fourth day,

This time, Julia, who was dressed in a long black dress, took Andalen, who also had a black skirt, to the steps of the negotiation hall at the negotiation table, and the two women sat down at the negotiation table.

"Miss Algernon Julia, my name is Duo Ze, the Governor of the Empire in the Rusti region!"

Seeing the two women come in, the old man stood up first, and his voice was gentle and hard, and he was quite fluent in Gaul, which made Andalin's face slightly surprised, she didn't expect that in the Falcon Army, there would be someone who was so proficient in Gaul, although the Gallic language family was the official language of the Gallic Empire, but it was only circulated in the internal areas north of Rasti, like the southwest and northwest regions, especially the northwest, where there are many small countries, and the languages of various ethnic groups are different,

"Where's Lord Hukochili?" said Algernon, with Julia frowning slightly

The old man Gu Bo smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, with a kind smile on his face, looking very friendly and cordial, and said slowly. The person in charge of the negotiations, General Hu Keqili, because he is not good at Gaul, there are inevitably unsatisfactory places in communication, and the director is even chaotic in the registration of the list, my family apologizes for this, since it is a negotiation, the two sides should show enough sincerity, in order to avoid such an unpleasant thing again, His Majesty temporarily changed the person in charge of the negotiation, and I will be fully responsible for the subsequent negotiations!"

"It turns out that it is Your Excellency, I have heard of it for a long time! It is a great honor to meet you today!"

Algernon Julia nodded calmly, but the pupils in her beautiful eyes were narrowing little by little, and she was the governor of the Falcon Empire in the Rusti region, such a figure was naturally within the scope of Algernon Julia's attention,

Algernon Julia struggled to control the horror on her face. The five delicate fingers placed under the table had already been clasped together, and a long black skirt was as cold as the bright moon, and slowly sat down opposite Duoxue, the governor in front of him was also a first-class civilian minister in the Falcon Empire.

But that's what made her whole nerves tense

The general in charge of direct operations has been replaced, replaced by an old man who has been rolling in government affairs for many years, and it seems that the Vechia Falcon has begun to prepare for it impatiently. Hukochili's Central Army had 80,000 men on the Western Front.

The disappearance of this man was a sign, a sign before a full-scale attack began, and the Imperial General must have rushed back to take command of his own troops

"There's something wrong with the atmosphere!"

Andalene next to her also seemed to feel something, her eyes flickered in a panic, and then she sat down slowly, but her mind was hovering with what Algernon Julia had mentioned earlier, Andalin's heart could no longer remain calm, and she suddenly became a fierce general. Changing to an official who is good at internal affairs, and the confident smile on the other party's face, is it really as the woman said, the moment when the negotiation really begins. Is it the moment when the war broke out on the Western Front?" Andalyn thought of the conversation between the two, and her face suddenly looked a little ugly, even pale, and this kind of game between countries made her feel extremely stressed. The heavy breath weighed on her heart, and she almost couldn't breathe, "The more stressful." The more you have to be calm, panic will only overwhelm you" There was a deep voice from Algernon Julia that only the two of them could hear, like a basin of ice water poured on his body, "If the war of Lord Hasenrambo has begun, instead of worrying meaninglessly, it is better to devote all your energy to the battlefield where you should be!"

"yes, it's a war here, too!"

Andalyn said in her heart, her nervous face gradually eased, at this time, she felt that she didn't know when, her slightly trembling hand was clenched by a thin hand of Algernon Julia, the five fingers clenched were so firm, in this grip full of a sense of dependence, the anxiety and hesitation in her heart gradually calmed down, Andalyn felt for the first time that this woman's voice was not unpleasant, and even the original cold feeling disappeared, is this the true face of this woman?

The sound of the thick paper hitting the table reverberated in the vast hall, which was flanked by tall guards, black uniforms, white marble pillars, and walls and gates decorated with intricate patterns

"I think we can start now!" said Duo Xue on the other side, with a serious look on his face, he opened the text in front of him, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation to the two women opposite, "You two can take a look, this is the roster that we have reconfirmed and sorted out the prisoners in these two days, and the statistical result is that there are a total of 55,762 people, including 625 people with noble status, and they are under the responsibility of both warring parties, and we have not abused the prisoners! Also, His Majesty specially asked me to tell the two of you that Master Qianyun has arrived, and I hope to be able to listen to Master Qianyun's peerless qin sound with the two of you after the negotiation is completed!" "Oh, has Qianyun arrived? That's really good, Qianyun's qin sound is always the best medicine to make people forget their troubles!"

Algernon Julia raised her head and deliberately sighed deeply, her eyes were full of longing and apology, "I am best friends with Qianyun, I don't know if Your Excellency can tell me about Qianyun's current situation, at that time, the southwest was goodbye, the situation was chaotic, I had no time to take care of other people for a while, now I think about it, at that time, the wolf was like a lost dog, for Qianyun, I really feel too sorry, and I don't know how Qianyun survived this time!" "If possible, I really hope to be able to say sorry to Qianyun in person." ......" Algernon Julia said with her fists clenched, her eyes slightly red, and her expression began to become bleak

"Miss Algernon Julia's friendship with everyone in Qianyun is really touching, since everyone in Qianyun agreed to play the piano, they must have forgiven Miss"

Duo Xue on the opposite side didn't hesitate much, and said with a smile, "And His Majesty Xià is very appreciative of Master Qianyun's piano skills, and always says that the sound of Qianyun's piano can make people forget their troubles, but after all, this is the most dangerous front line of warfare, so His Majesty Xià is also very cautious, and specially sent someone to place Master Qianyun in the Nasri Manor, three miles outside the city, and there are 1,500 soldiers nearby, guarded by three layers inside and outside." Absolute security is foolproof!"

"In this way, I will be relieved! It would be my greatest honor to hear the sound of Qianyun's piano again before I returned," Algernon Julia smiled with relief, and seemed very satisfied.

If she didn't know the true intention of this woman, she just listened to Algernon Julia's apologetic voice, Andalene would never believe that the real purpose of Algernon Julia's inquiry was actually to let the Praetorian Guard master who infiltrated the city ambush Qianyun in one fell swoop, and completely erase this so-called good friend from this world!

Negotiations continued until noon. It was only the first step in the negotiations, and it would take more than 5 days to check the names of these captives, so Algernon Giulia was not in a hurry, almost one by one, and the multiple choices on the opposite side were also steady, and even left the chair halfway, stood in front of the window and looked at the beautiful scenery in the distance, and let the two women check it themselves. But the workload is too great, and in one morning, the number of people who checked was not even 10,000.

Algernon Julia was a little anxious. asked to bring these two sides back to the residence at the same time to check overnight, and Duo Xuan hesitated for a moment before reluctantly agreeing to this request,

The spring breeze blows. Bring a burst of warmth,

Algernon Julia, who threw the thick text aside, sat in the return carriage on a small piece of leather. Write with a quill pen "Ten miles of Nasri Manor outside the city, conducive to ambush halfway!" and then crumpled the small leather in the white and tender palm, opened the curtain of the carriage and looked out,

There were only 8 falcon cavalrymen in front of them, with a tall posture and no squinting.

This is the range of the Falcon Army, these falcon cavalry who opened the way obviously did not think that they would be attacked here, so they seemed to be cautious, but in fact they were very lax, and the other thirty retinues were all Gallic Janissaries of Algernon Julia, divided into two groups to escort the carriage and walked slowly, and the expression was very tacit

"Sukad, send this out at once!" As the carriage entered a bend and the falcon cavalry in front of it temporarily disappeared from view, Algernon Julia whispered to one of the Praetorian Guard cavalrymen beside the carriage, stealthily handing over the crumpled leather

"Yes, my subordinates understand!"

The cavalry of the Gallic Praetorian Guard approached the carriage, quickly took the leather, and as if it had been rehearsed in advance, while the falcon cavalry in front of him was not paying attention, gradually slowed down the speed of the horse, and finally quietly broke away from the ranks and disappeared into the flow of people in the city.

Seeing this qiē in her eyes, Andalyn held her chin in her hand and looked out the car window

The slow and heavy wheels crushed against the stones of the street, making a gurgling and swaying sound, the flow of people on the street, the innocent smiles of children, and the cheerful sound of birds flying over the sky, like a touching scene reflected in the bright early summer warm breeze,

And this qiē is what he used to like to see the most, but now, it is so incompatible with himself, just a few days, a qiē is like a world away, war, ambush, the crisis of the empire, the emperor's secret, the falcon army and the gallic army know that they are deceiving each other but still empty and wrong, the conspiracy game between countries, this is a world of light and darkness that most people can't know, chaotic and cold, and these are the world where the woman has to be ruthless and fight all the time.

In another room, the fat man was leisurely picking up the wine on the table, this is a Bochum wine from the Zosende region, just shipped from the northwest region, the smooth taste that melts in the mouth, so that the fat man's eyes are almost narrowed into a line.

"It's a gold-equivalent wine!" This guy sighed slightly, the orange-red wine color reflected on his slightly chubby face, the cooperation of the Gauls was too ideal, both sides deliberately delayed time in the negotiations, each with its own ghosts, but the impact of this negotiation on the entire battle situation has been very clearly revealed, in order to exert pressure on the Falcon Army and ensure the safety of the negotiators, the army of the Western Front of the Gallul really gave up the original helpless contraction tactics after the negotiations began, and began to fully pull outward,

The 250,000 Gallic troops on the western front of more than 100 miles long, set up a solid triangular array, the middle line is a total strength of 97,000 troops of 8 local garrison regiments, the left flank is the 70,000 people of the Kyoto local army, the right flank is the 6th Army Corps personally led by Hasenlimpo and the main force of 100,000 composed of three local garrison regiments, the front of the front has even reached the mountain forest area 20 miles away from here, and about half of the troops have left the original strong guard area,

These Gallic armies, which were becoming more and more bold. I didn't know that in front of them, the 150,000-strong Falcon Army had already opened its pockets, just like it was like it had to shrink its fist before stretching its fist, and the excessive calmness often represented the murderous intent

And the Andean mountain corridor, which is the focus of the fat man's strategic core, is a steep mountain road, and the current strength is only 30,000, because it is close to the 100,000 right wing of Hasenlimpo, Hasenlimpo believes. As long as there is a stir, the 100,000 Gallic troops on the right flank may cut off the road to break through the troops at any time.

"Obviously, Hasenlimpo does not think that we will take a risk, and will be bold enough to dare to play a game of tiger tooth extraction! But Hasenrampo has undoubtedly forgotten one thing, whether his confident 100,000 right wings will dare to risk breaking away from the line if they are attacked on the whole line and the flanks are inclined to collapse. In one fell swoop, cut off the rear tail of my invading troops, and if we really do that, it only takes our intruding troops to turn around, and Hasenlimpo's troops will become the object of sorrow for our troops to attack from both sides."

The fat man's tone was sharp. At the meeting arranged before the war, this is how he said to several army commanders attending the meeting: "It is indeed very dangerous to extract teeth from the tiger's mouth, but as long as it is fast and stable enough, even if it is a real tiger." It's nothing to have a tooth extracted once! Not to mention a tiger that is dying of illness and dying!" "Your Majesty, the situation has basically been clarified!" Hu Keqili, who disappeared at the negotiating table. With an excited look on his face, he pushed open the door of the room with a list of lists, and said excitedly, "Our people followed the Gallic officer who slipped away halfway, and sure enough, they found the target they were looking for in a large chamber of commerce in the west of the city, the number of people was between 150 and 200 people, although they pretended to be mercenaries and coolies hired by the chamber of commerce, our people could see it at a glance,

The language and style of these people are very low-key, they usually stay in the chamber of commerce and don't show up, and even the food is delivered by someone, but the style of the soldiers is obvious, abide by discipline, if it weren't for someone to guide the way, we really wouldn't be able to find them in a short time, I really don't know how that woman arranged these people in!" According to this scale, if it is really an ambush halfway through Miss Qianyun's entry into the city, in the face of Miss Qianyun's escort force of only about 30 people, it is indeed possible to achieve the effect of evacuating immediately after killing people quickly, and the other party must have arranged a retreat route a long time ago, so that we can't catch up even if we want to!"

"That woman is indeed not simple, but even so, in the face of the shaky situation, what can one person's efforts be? She could not have imagined that the consequences of her own cleverness would ruin the entire Western Front and put the Gallic army in deep danger.

If the Gauls had been unable to hold out, hiding behind a thick shell like turtles, we would not have been able to break this stalemate for a while, even if we could fight again."

The fat man took a sip of the wine in his hand, took a deep sip, wiped the red wine overflowing from the corner of his mouth, took the investigation report and looked at it a few times, and said with a smile. I didn't expect the Gauls to really come, since I know the number of people on the other side, it's easy to do, tell to go down, don't startle the snake, since they are lurking, then we don't need to alarm them, as usual, the negotiation is still to negotiate, as for Miss Qianyun, for the time being, I ask not to have any outings, the guards are strictly guarded, as long as Qianyun does not move, the other party will be anxious, as long as it is urgent, that woman will definitely take the initiative to ask to see Qianyun, we know when they will start!"

"I know when to start, but I don't know the location, so I'm afraid it's hard to ......."

Hu Keqili took a deep breath with a puzzled expression, and said, "Ten miles is not long, it is not short, an ambush of about 100 people, the area required is only fifty or sixty meters, if we really mobilize the army to monitor the length of ten miles, the other party will already notice, how far and how far to run" "If you were a Gaul, where would you set up an ambush?" The fat man looked at him, the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, looking at a flock of birds flying in the sky outside the window, and asked with a deep and noncommittal gaze" On the road from Nasri Manor to the city, the dark forest five miles away is undoubtedly the best ambush location, where the forest is dense and the light is dark and unknown, which is conducive to ambushes, and it is even more ideal if it is launched at night, as long as you don't know how to die, the other party may not even know how to die!" Hukochi touched his chin with his hand, thought for a while with a solemn expression, and said affirmatively, "If you think so, then the Gauls must also think so!" The fat man nodded affirmatively and said. The reason why I deliberately arranged Qianyun in Nasri Manor is because the dark woods that must be passed through on the way are really a natural area for ambushes, instead of letting these infiltrated Gallic killers find places to ambush at will, it is better to pretend to give them a chance to determine the location of their ambush, we only need to cordon off the surroundings at that time, and then send cavalry to search the entire woods, and we will definitely be able to catch them all!"
