"In addition to these, the pension of the fallen is the same. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Freya continued: "Considering that the guns and ammunition used by the Empire and the Britons are different from the models of artillery. Therefore, the Kingdom of Briton needed to provide money for the purchase of military supplies for the use of the imperial army. ”

"That's fine, we'll—" Lady Maria was relieved to hear Freya say. Although these conditions may sound a bit unpleasant. But in this day and age, it's not too harsh.

"Just think of these guys as mercenaries. Well, mercenaries, in that case—"

However, what Freya said next made Lady Maria's face a little ugly.

"By the way, we don't accept paper bills, we only collect gold. The other man said something that almost drove Madame Mary mad.

"Why is that?" though he could barely help but curse a word like bitch. But at least on the surface, the two people still respect each other more.

Of course, it's just on the surface.

"Well, we don't believe in the credibility of the Briton banknotes right now. ”

Although I don't really understand these things myself. Fortunately, William had already told his aunt the full set of explanations before he came. Freya only had to say what she had written: "In the present situation, the financial sector of Breton is very dangerous, and we have reason to believe that the credit of Breton banknotes may go bankrupt and then depreciate sharply. In this case, there is no point in including Briton banknotes. ”

"For nearly two hundred years, the Briton dollar was the strongest currency in the Old World. ”

"Yes, that was true before you lost most of your territory on the Old World. Freya said with ease something that made Lady Maria want to kill her. And with a relaxed smile.

She must be very happy, yes, she must be very happy. Because I didn't like this guy in the first place. But before that, even if you don't like this guy, you can't take this guy. After all, the other party's various strengths are stronger than their own. Even Freya is proud of her combat power.

If the two of them do do it, then Freya is definitely not Lady Maria's opponent.

But that's no longer the case. After making proper use of what William had told her, Freya immediately suppressed Lady Maria.

Seeing that the other party was angry but couldn't say anything, Freya felt so happy.

"Well, I see, let's pay in gold. ”

Although it is actually very unpleasant. But in the end, Madame Maria made such a promise.

"It's like William said, everything is under his control, even this guy's countermeasures, reactions, and actions.

William is truly remarkable. Seeing that it was all going well, just as William thought, Freya couldn't help but sigh.

And then there was the next point of negotiation, which was about strategy, the Frisian war. Although she has just received a lot of benefits from the other party, Freya has no awareness of using people's short-handedness or taking people's money to eliminate disasters for others. He still insisted on garrison fighting.

He even said very cool words.

"If you think it's good to take the initiative, then please lead the elite army of Briton to take the initiative. Please rest assured that with you and the elite of Briton taking the initiative, you will take responsibility and take on the garrison of Rotterdam well. ”

Of course, Freya's statement made Madame Maria angry enough.

In particular, if you really have that ability, you don't have to endure humiliation like this, and you can't help but discuss the conditions with the other party. The problem is, even if he wants to take the initiative, and he doesn't have a terrifyingly powerful army like the Imperial Cavalry Corps, he will attack the prepared and morale-boosting Visigoths with the frightened Britton army like a frightened bird?

Thinking so in her heart, Madame Maria resisted the urge to turn her face with Freya, and even spilled the black tea in her hand on the other party's face, and continued to reason with the other party, hoping to make the other party realize this. In other words, if you don't make serious efforts to use all your strength against the Visigoths, then the world will be doomed.

"So, now is not the time for us to be clever and want to stab ourselves in the back, or to see our enemies and allies die and then pick up the bargain or something, which will only lead to the destruction of the whole world.

Think about what would happen if the so-called revolutionaries who had no faith, no condescension, and were like a mob took over the whole world, and if you think about it a little, you should know that it is the best choice to stand with Briton and fight side by side!"

In a sense, Lady Mary's speech was indeed wonderful. Even said that if she was facing an imperial general in the general sense, even if the other party really accepted William's entrustment before coming, most of them would have been persuaded by her at this moment, and even thought in their hearts that what she said was correct. He would even risk going against William's will, take the army of the Russian Gothic Empire, and fight to the death with the army of the Visigothic Republic for the happiness of mankind, the future of the world, or something.

However, Lady Mary was confronted by Freya at this moment. If there is one person in the world who hates and dislikes Lady Mary the most, then Freya thinks that she is second, and there will never be first.

So no matter how reasonable Lady Mary's words were, how earnest they were, she never let go. Even if the other party wears out the skin of the mouth, it is the same.

That's it, in the end, even people like Lady Mary have no patience. The talks between the two sides ended unhappily. Freya sneered and left Lady Maria's room.

Seeing her leave, Lady Maria could hardly resist several times and threatened to kill her, or at least beat her up or something. But in the end, nothing was done. I swallowed my anger like that.

At the end of the day, it is the people of Britton who are begging the Russian Gothic Empire, not the Russian Gothic Empire begging for Britton. It is even said that the de Normandy family needed the help of the Russian Gothic Empire more than Briton. Therefore, in this case, even if the other party is more domineering, no matter how bad the behavior is, Lady Maria has no way to turn her face.

This is the case, time continues to move forward minute by minute, day by day. During this time, Madame Maria held several more meetings with Freya, hoping that Freya and the elite troops of the Russian Gothic Empire would take the initiative to attack the enemy. But without exception, they were all rejected by Freya.

After several unpleasant breakups, Lady Maria gave up on Freya. She sent an emissary directly to Moscow and lodged a good complaint with William. However, even if the envoy had arrived in Moscow on the fastest steamer, it would probably have been a week later.

Originally, if you had taken the coastal rails, the speed would have been faster. But unfortunately, during this time, the other side, the Visigoths did not remain idle. Naturally, they are also marching in, so that is, the coastal railway has been cut off by them and cannot be used.

If it weren't for the fact that the sea roads were still open, Rotterdam's communication with the outside world would have been cut off.

It is not even the worst news that the railway line has been cut off, the worst news should be that the five corps they deployed in the south have reached the front line as quickly as possible.

In addition to these armies, the Visigothic side seems to have known about the entry of the Russian Gothic Empire into the war. This surprised them a little and then became even more fanatical.

While increasing mobilization, we are also increasing the number of troops in service.

It is worth noting that through the information sent by the Cheka, Freya learned that these troops did not come from the Visigoths alone. Not even just from the original Visigothic territory.

Conscription began in the territories originally occupied by the northern Britons, Brittany, Normandy and Aquitaine. In addition to this, in the occupied foreign territories, on the side of Lotternia and Bern, there were also large numbers of adult conscripts who entered the Visigothic training camps.

These guys are just going crazy and expanding their army. Not to mention, after learning that the Frisian side had lost an entire legion, six legions advanced towards the Frisian side as fast as they could.

In this way, the army of the Visigothic side, which participated in the Frisian campaign, was able to reach, and even more than three hundred thousand.

Such a figure not only frightened the people of Briton, but even Freya felt a little regretful.

She didn't expect that the other party would be so desperate. Otherwise, perhaps she would have considered it as she could, promised, and then accepted Madame Maria's suggestion to lead her own army to attack the enemy.

Of course, it's too late to say anything now.

Not to mention the six legions mobilized after the other side, let's just say that the first nine legions were already in place, and nearly 200,000 troops surrounded the entire city from all directions, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is impassable. In this case, even Madame Maria would no longer insist that the Russian Gothic army take the initiative.

They have to face a battle to defend the city. (To be continued.) )
