Volume 2 The Manifestation of the Dragon's Power Chapter 14 The Kingdom Signs a Truce and Peace Treaty
I don't know why, he feels that there is a warmth of maternal love here, perhaps because it was founded by Xiaoyanzi, and she is too similar to his real mother.
"I will always remember you, little swallow......" At this moment, the baron wanted to stay here a little longer, and look back on the good times he spent with little swallow.
Just as the baron was pacing back and forth, carefully observing and inspecting the Yanluo Casino, the guard standing guard at the gate of the town hurriedly ran to him to report:
"Report, my noble master, the war in the kingdom has come to an end."
"Do you mean the war with the massive forces of King Haraus X at Fort Dak, at the village of Shiko, on the border of the Kugit Khanate?" Draxle asked.
"Yes, you guessed it right, we won! And successfully captured Fort Duck and the villages of Hiko! After this, negotiations began between the kingdoms, and we signed a truce and peace treaty with the Kugit Khanate. ”
"Well, this is good news, but the Kugit Khanate, after losing its territory and losing the war, is still willing to sign a truce and peace treaty, which is really a big loss of vitality, and it will not be able to make a comeback for a while."
"Yes! I am also happy for our victory, long live the kingdom of Svadia! By the way, my honorable master, I think the king's follow-up instructions to you have been passed to the lord's hall at this time, why don't you go back and take a look? ”
Hearing this, Draxel didn't continue to stay in Yanluo Casino, and his thoughts could be kept in his heart, and he could miss them all the time. He rode back to the hall of the lords......
In the hall of the lords, the great merchant Manid had received a letter from the king and was waiting for the return of the baron.
He saw the baron in the distance hurrying here, presumably knowing the results of the battle.
"Honorable master, the king's order has arrived, please see it with your own eyes."
"No need, just report it to me, and by the way, tell me your views and suggestions."
"Well, now the situation is like this: after King Harlaus X's troops took down the Diccoburg as well as the village of Hiko, the loss of soldiers and the consumption of food were also great. He originally planned to continue to go deep into the enemy's territory and expand the results of the war after recuperating and recuperating. But the Kugit Khanate sent someone to negotiate with us. ”
Draxel interjected and asked, "Is the person who came to negotiate the Valkyrie Tianyan?" ”
"Yes, the Valkyrie Tianyan, in the name of the king of the Kugit Khanate, Saiga Khan, signed a truce and peace treaty with us for a period of two months. At the same time, they will release all the Swadia prisoners, and as for the Kugit soldiers and Nayan lords we have captured, they will be redeemed with money. ”
"It sounds good for us, but why are they doing it? The two armies have just engaged in a large-scale battle, they are the defenders of the castle, and the defenders should lose less troops than us, you just said that our people have suffered a lot of losses, and their best choice is not to counterattack? ”
"At first, I thought the same way, and then our caravans, some of them went to the Kugit Khanate to do business, and I heard from them that the Kugit Khan was worried about internal and external troubles, as if there were a lot of rebels recently, in short, their own internal situation is now very bad."
Drassel pondered for a moment and said: "This is a bit reasonable, they were forced to sign an unequal treaty with us, and then give priority to internal conflicts, it seems that Lady Luck is standing in our kingdom this time." Do you have any new arrangements for us by King Haraus X? ”
"Baron, the king has not arranged a new task for us for the time being, but just let us continue to defend and develop Uxhall and its three subordinate villages, but the newly attacked Dakburg, as well as the village of Hico, has not appointed a new lord at present, you have the right to vote, and the king is waiting for your reply."
"Voting rights? You're talking about electing an Earl to be lord of Fort Duck and the village of Hico, right? ”
Manid, the great merchant, nodded respectfully and replied, "Yes, that's what it means. ”
"Then you can help me write a report to King Haraus X, saying that Count Harroun is responsible for the success of this war, and that I will vote for him as the new lord of Dakburg and the village of Hico. At the same time, you must also write a letter and tell Count Harlan that I voted for him, and that we cannot do good deeds without leaving a name. I'm going to have him help us in the future! ”
[Evaluation: That is, we can't be a living Lei Feng! ] TMD last time I remember that this Earl Harlan slipped away on his own, and I don't believe that the next time he sees us, he is embarrassed not to give us anything. 】
This time, Draxel thought the same as the system, after all, this Earl Harlan was a honest and honest man, and he might not be left behind in this face-saving project and courtesy.
"Haha, Baron, I think exactly the same as you! I've prepared the two things you just mentioned. ”
Manid, the great merchant, said as he took the two documents from his bosom and presented them to Draxle to read.
Draxel shook his head with a smile, waved his hand, and said slowly: "I don't read it, if you write, every word must be in line with my heart, I believe in you very much." You can go straight to it! ”
[You have +5 friendship with Manid, the Great Merchant, and is currently 60.] 】
[Evaluation: You are getting better and better at winning people's hearts, which is very good~]
After properly handling this matter, Draxel just wanted to go to the back garden of the lord's hall to take a look at the scenery and rest, but Xiao Nan rushed to report the situation.
"My honorable master, we are back. I just learned that you went to fight the Land Lion King the other day, and he is a very tough opponent! You're not hurt, are you? I've heard from everyone that it took you 3-5 years to recover. ”
When Drassel heard this, he twitched again, and his eyes couldn't help darkening, and he didn't want to mention it again, so he said:
"Thank you for your concern, Xiao Nan, I'm fine now. Tell me about the training, how is it, have the Svadia soldiers improved? ”
Xiao Nan looked ashamed and replied embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, baron, I disappointed you." They don't make much progress, they don't like us tavern mercenaries, we can gain experience without fighting, maybe these Swadiya soldiers can only improve on the battlefield. ”
"Ah, that's it, it's okay, I can't blame you for this. I just let you and Xiao Ming go with the attitude of trying, okay, you go down and rest first. Remember to arrange for the men to take turns to defend Uxhall, although we have signed a truce and peace treaty with the Kugit Khanate, there is no guarantee that no one will harass. ”
