Otto looked at the group of Saxon nobles in front of him with great interest, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

This is the Saxon reinforcements assembled in the direction of Lüneburg, at this level?

Otto only arranged a small ambush in the woods, and with such a simple strategy, he almost took down almost all the reinforcements in front of him and captured a group of Saxon nobles.

If it weren't for the fact that they had to kowtow and beg for mercy after seeing Otto, it seems that this was not to bring troops to rescue Bremen, but everyone made an appointment to come to the suburbs to hunt together.

No, the war has been going on for so long, why does the group of people in front of you seem to be completely out of shape.

After a group of people cried with snot and tears, Otto also understood what was going on.

This group of people really hasn't experienced any war.

They were all nobles from eastern Saxony, who had not been deeply involved in the rebellion, and had been invited by the Earl of Braunschweig to come to the rescue of Bremen.

Naturally, these people have heard about Otto's recent actions.

The Saxon nobles assembled in Lüneburg were reluctant to come to the rescue.

In the end, after the negotiation of the nobles, such a group of nobles who had a relationship with the Sighard family and had no combat effectiveness were selected, and they wanted to touch the bottom of Otto.

In the eyes of the Saxon nobles, Otto was not a vassal of the Duke of Franconia, but a cooperative relationship, and everyone had the relationship of the Sighard family, and there was no need for some things to be like this, and between the two sides, it was not impossible to sit down and talk.

Otto was at his disposal for this.

It's one thing to be unscrupulous on the battlefield, it's another thing to guarantee yourself a good reputation in aristocratic circles.

These nobles caught in front of him, since they have nothing to do with the rebellion, can be incorporated into the Allied forces to make meritorious contributions. The mass slaughter of the Saxon nobility, which was making a wedding dress for the Duke of Franconia.

As for the request of the Saxon nobles, led by Lünaburg and Braunschweig, to communicate with Otto, Otto naturally agreed.

The destructive policy of conquest of Saxony over this period had already demonstrated Otto's determination and ability, and certainly deterred a part of the Saxon aristocracy.

If they can be divided and no longer united around the Duke of Bach, won't the suppression of this rebellion be overnight?

After all, even if it was a rebellion, the Saxon nobles were not of one mind.

Since it is not a heart, there is a chance for Otto.

In a previous life, a certain Taizu once said, find our friends and deal with our enemies. Now that Otto has found the enemy, then, next, it is necessary to have some friends.

Just by killing, if you want to kill Saxony, it is indeed a bit too bloody, and there must be one or two generations?

Besides, if such an unprecedented hatred accumulates, I am afraid that the Duchy of Saxony will be a drag on the Kingdom of East Francia for a long time.

Otto didn't want to come to Saxony with his army to suppress bandits and cut people in his lifetime, which was too boring.

Besides, if you really slaughter the Saxons, there will be other barbarians in the land of the Duchy of Saxony, and the barbarians of Northern Europe and the Baltic Sea will always want to enter this land.

It was quite a pleasure to meet the Saxon aristocracy.

In the face of Otto, who has strong troops, these people not only have no intention of confronting Otto, but even take the initiative to say that they can help Otto attack Bremen City.

"Well, Count Otto, if you are willing to give us forty percent of the wealth in Bremen, I have a good way to take Bremen City quickly.

And, later, I'm going to help you get that Bishop Jason apprehended. The Earl of Braunschweig smiled and raised his glass, bowing his body and whispering in Otto's ear.

Forty percent, Otto thought about it in his heart, and felt that this was not an unacceptable price. If you can cooperate with these Saxon nobles, capture the Bishop of Jason, and destroy the power of the church, forty percent of the wealth is not much.

"Forty percent? I can even give you fifty percent. Otto smiled too.

"As long as the Earl is willing to plunder the wealth of the church with me, and then join me in plundering the wealth of the church, and arresting those priests, we can still divide the subsequent income fifty-fifty."

The Saxon aristocracy did not know how much the Church owned in Saxony.

For this wealth, the Saxon nobles were naturally jealous.

But in the face of the church, which has the means of public opinion and the right to interpret most of the judicial sacrifices, these Saxon aristocrats really dare not provoke.

If it weren't for the fact that Bremen had so much wealth in store, they wouldn't want to get involved in Otto and the church.

Behind you, Otto, stood two dukes, not worried about the retribution of the Church. We Saxons are different, who doesn't know that this church, you Frankish nobles, oversaw the weakening of our Saxon aristocracy.

Now let's deal with the church in Saxony with you, I'm afraid that after the church is eradicated, we will take everyone's heads and use them to calm the people's hearts.

Although the church was corrupt, it also had a high reputation among the people of Saxony for religious reasons, even higher than the lords, and could not take risks in the middle of the fire.

Regarding the concerns of the Saxon aristocracy, Otto did not rush to make empty promises.

With his identity, people won't believe the blank checks he writes.

He responded with a simple solution.

Okay, aren't you just afraid that after I and the church merge with the fire, you will be blamed?

Simple!

In this way, I, Otto, will do it myself, and you only need to provide me with intelligence support, and after the matter is completed, we will not be able to divide the plundered wealth, but only three or seven.

The Earl of Braunschweig and the Saxon nobles whispered for a while about Otto's sincere words and suggestions, and then nodded decisively in agreement.

"Count Otto is such a good man, who is extremely thoughtful in every way.

In that case, I am willing to personally lead the soldiers and deceive you into opening the gates of Bremen. ”

Yes, the Count of Braunschweig's plan was as simple as that, that is, to pretend to be reinforcements and deceive the gates of Bremen.

It's not a lie, he still has a letter from Bishop Jason in his hand.

As for why he made this choice, it was naturally because he had heard that Bach was surrounded in Kassel, and felt that the situation of this rebellion was basically under the control of the Franconian side, and it was time to find a way out.

Besides, Otto was much more generous than Bishop Jason.

Twenty percent? It's called Hanako.

A feast for the guests, Otto's figure also wandered in the banquet, chatting with everyone from time to time.

What he thinks now is also very simple.

Otto did need some "friends", but not so many. Otherwise, his "friend" would be too cheap.

Also, the responsibility for this rebellion must not only let the church, Bach, and those nobles who died in battle carry it, but there must be a few Kun brothers who come out to scare the monkeys.

Now, Otto wants to find a nobleman who is suitable to be Brother Kun through interpersonal relationships.
