1276. Death of Acheson
Surdak stepped down from the watchtower, and the guards at the gate stood up straight and saluted him.
Striding directly in front of the noble lord, Surdak said calmly: "I am Surdak, Your Excellency?" ”
Wilkes City House of Representatives Dirk. Acheson! ”
The noble lord with the golden staff in his hand nodded to Surdak.
Then he straightened his bow tie and said to Surdak with a straight face: "Count Surdak, the application for the territory of the Three Rivers Plain that you submitted to the House of Representatives of Wilkes City, after some consideration, the House of Representatives has decided to send me here to verify. ”
Surdak nodded, and invited the Acheson Councillor into the barracks.
The guards behind Congressman Acheson immediately followed, and a crowd of people surrounded Congressman Acheson, appearing to be very loud as they entered the barracks.
Seeing Surdak behaving very accommodatingly, Congressman Acheson became even more proud.
This kind of territory development and then negotiation work has been done several times by Congressman Acheson on behalf of the Wilkes City House of Representatives.
Although each time the lords who pioneered the plane rebounded, and even said that they would appeal to the House of Representatives of Bena Province, once this kind of thing entered the process, it was easy to end up with no problems.
Moreover, Councilor Acheson felt that behind him were the nobles of the entire Wilkes City, and he had come here to present an olive branch to Count Surdak and invite him to join the Federation of Noble Lords of the White Forest Plane.
Of course, Surdak had to pay the price of ceding part of the territory of the Three Rivers Plain.
Since it was the lords of Wilkes City who stood behind him, Councilor Acheson felt that he still had some upper hand in the face of Surdak.
Walking into the barracks, Councilor Acheson found that it was more like a huge warehouse of supplies, with a mess of supplies piled up everywhere, and there were hardly many lord troops in sight.
He straightened his back again, and his expression became more smug.
There was that aristocratic pride on his face......
At this time, he seemed to have forgotten that the Count of Surdak in front of him was a lord with outstanding military achievements, that is, he simply felt that he even managed a military camp in a mess, so he must not be very good at commanding the army, maybe those previous military exploits were all piled up on him by the Marquis of Luther.
Especially after entering the military tent, the place where the sand table was originally placed was actually a model of a grand canyon and a dam, and Councillor Acheson could not find any military deployment on it, which made Councillor Acheson conclude that Surdak would probably not command the army at all.
He climbed the steps, sat down on a chair, and looked around the tent.
He even saw two elf and human beauties in the corner of the military tent, and his long straight legs dazzled him a little, and he felt that Count Surdak was still better than himself in terms of aesthetics.
Then he thought about it again, Count Surdak married the beloved daughter of the Marquis of Luthor, so naturally he didn't dare to leave these two beauties at home, and it was really a good choice to bring them to the barracks.
Councillor Acheson glanced at Surdak with some disdain.
That strange gaze made Surdak slightly startled, he couldn't understand why the Wilkes City House would send such an arrogant guy to review the newly opened occupation zone.
Jiali. Decker brought two cups of lemon tea with his hands and feet, and Congressman Acheson's eyes looked at her chest to see her long legs that were pressed together without gaps......
His gaze was a little presumptuous, but he immediately withdrew his gaze and said to Surdak:
"After my understanding along the way, I found that you have actually only occupied half of the Three Rivers Plain, and the rest of the area is not yet fully in the hands of your lord's army, Count Surdak, is that so?"
Surdak was a little speechless, thinking that the Wilkes City House of Representatives was really constantly testing his bottom line again and again.
But in the face of this question, Surdak nodded and replied, "It is true that there are some areas that are not fully controlled. ”
"I came here this time, representing not only the Wilkes City House of Representatives, but also the many nobles of Wilkes City, we hope that you can divide a part of the compensation to the lords of Wilkes City in this vast territory, after all, this has always been the land that the Wilkes Lords want to explore, everyone has been preparing for so many years, but you preemptively opened it up, so it stands to reason that you should set aside a part of the land to compensate the lords of Wilkes City, what do you think?"
Congressman Acheson felt that he had said it well, or at least he had made it clear.
"How much do you want?" Surdak pinched the corners of his eyes and asked coldly.
Congressman Acheson waved his finger and said, "Not much, just give us a third of this land, and that's fine!" ”
Surdak was a little speechless, he didn't know what to say to say in order to refuse.
Samira and Carrie sitting in the corner. The two Deckers also looked at the Acheson Councillor with a strange expression.
Surdak thought about it and decided to give him a step, so he said to Councilor Acheson: "Actually, I have a better suggestion, according to the 433 land distribution law, only forty percent of the territory that ultimately belongs to my lord alliance here, after all, we are here in the lord alliance army, a little bit In fact, each lord can't share much territory, in fact, most of the territory belongs to Bena Province and the Grimm Empire, if the lords of Wilkes City want to own the land here, they can use gold coins to buy it from Bena Province." ”
Councilor Acheson didn't expect Surdak to refuse in disguise, his face suddenly became ugly, and he asked Surdak with a cold poker face:
"Aren't you afraid that this hasty decision will turn all the Wilkes Lords against you?"
Surdak leaned in close to Congressman Acheson, his forehead almost pressed against his head, stared into his eyes and said, "It's like you're not afraid to say these unreasonable demands...... I'll kill you, and I'm certainly not afraid to be an enemy of all the Wilkes Lords. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lord Acheson felt a cold, sharp knife plunge into his back, and the sharp pain almost instantly overwhelmed any sense in his body.
Congressman Acheson stretched out his hand to Surdak and said incredulously, "You ......"
Before the latter words could even be spoken, Congressman Acheson fell straight into the tent.
Jiali. Decker took the opportunity to pull out the dagger that had been inserted into the back of the heart, and walked back to the corner as if nothing had happened, without even asking Surdak why he had killed the nobleman, but simply went over and stabbed the councillor to death with the dagger, and then retreated into the corner without saying a word.
Instead, Surdak went over and rummaged through Congressman Acheson's body, and when he found that he had died on the spot, he called the guards at the door of the tent and commanded them, "Carry Councilor Acheson out and hand them over to his followers." ”
So saying, Surdak lifted the curtain of the tent, went outside the tent, and said to the followers of Baron Acheson:
"When you go back, by the way, tell the Archon of Florion that he must send someone with a little brains next time."
The followers looked terrified and hurried away with Congressman Acheson's body in their hands......
