Chapter 139 Archduke Francis's helplessness

"An indefinite truce?"

"That's right, just now, a messenger came from the direction of Volcan, and he brought the other side a desire for a truce. The full-text and ad-free novels are all on the Aishang Novel Network biquge.info"

Feng Kan smacked his lips and scratched his head.

"Truce" is a very delicate word, and if he could, he would really like to hear the other side's request for a "truce."

"Truce" and "truce" are two concepts, "truce" is like two boxers in the ring desperately working for ten rounds, and then whether they win or lose, even if it is a draw, it is a result, and there is a end to the match.

But the "truce" is different, the "truce" is like an intermission, the two sides take advantage of this short break, each back to the corner to sit down and take a breath, drink saliva, deal with the injuries that should be treated, relax when it is time to relax, by the way, listen to the coaches who are watching the game on the sidelines put forward their opinions on the next battle, and then wait for the gong to sound, then how to pinch and how to pinch when they are full of strength......

"Lack of sincerity~~~~" Feng Kan shook his head and sat obliquely at Archduke Francis, who was sitting comfortably on the side.

The old man has been soaking here since this morning.

Oh, and I forgot to mention that this is the third fortress of Reston Fort, the steel fortress near the Lesser Barr Mountains to the east, and the reason why Archduke Francis is so comfortable is that he is soaking in the hot springs......

The benefit of the stratigraphic changes caused by this great battle was not only to add a defensible freshwater lake to Reston Fort, but also that most of the open space in the Third Fortress, centered on three of the wells, had collapsed, and after the collapse, the vast training ground of the Third Fortress was replaced by three steaming hot springs, which were still kept between forty and fifty-five degrees Celsius

Sulfate chloride springs are mainly treated for arthritis, muscle aches, neuralgia, gout - in other words, fatigue.

I really don't know what kind of luck this went. Thanks to the low level of the training ground, the spring water gushing out of the ground did not reach much of it, but even so, most of the soldiers' dormitories built around the training ground were completely unusable......

No one complained about this, there were enough hot springs of such a large pool for one or two thousand people to soak comfortably at the same time, and there was nothing more soothing than an hour's beautiful hot spring bath after a day of intense combat training.

If this is placed in normal times, hot springs are a luxury leisure activity for those rich and nobles, if ordinary people want to enjoy it once, then they must wait for the annual autumn harvest festival to rest before they have time to run so many dozens of miles to the area with hot springs to try it, but it seems that except for those who really need to soak in hot springs to cure diseases, not many people will have this leisure to deliberately join in this excitement.

It's different now, the soldiers of Reston Fort are really called close to the water for a month, and it is unrealistic for tens of thousands of people to enjoy it together, but after intense training every day, if you stagger the use time, then everyone can enjoy it two or three times a week. Even if you can't soak in the pool, you can relax in your own camp with a bucket of hot water.

Thousands of people soak in the hot springs at the same time, and the sight is spectacular.

――It's not an exaggeration to call it a wonder of the world, so you should have no problem applying for Guinness World Records, right?

The rough planks divided the whole large pool into small areas after small areas, and roughly paved small passages with rounded cobblestones, because the time was too short, and the whole third fortress seemed to have been transformed into an unprecedentedly huge bathhouse, and Feng Kan and his companions unceremoniously occupied the two largest ponds, while at the same time Archduke Francis was cheeky and took possession of one of the most comfortable springs in the pond with a loyal human chariot.

The candor of the stripes always makes humans relax their guard for a great time, which is why many merchants in ancient Rome liked to do business in public baths. Of course, this is not the same concept as the "bath" that some people like to contact nowadays to invite friends or business partners to "take a bath". (Those who understand are tacit, and those who do not understand are ...... All I can say is that you are so pure. ）

"No sincerity?" said Archduke Francis, stretching his arms pleasantly, "I'm all here, is there anything more sincere than this?"

"Hey" but Feng Kan was not persuaded by this statement, "To be honest, if we hadn't withstood that monster's attack yesterday, would you still propose a truce?"

"No," Archduke Francis shook his head very dryly, "Barron will definitely give the order to attack with all his might." ”

"Then he doesn't care if you live or die?"

"If you really didn't stand in the way of that guy, no one would be spared in that situation, would he?

“...... I get it. Feng Kan nodded, he did understand, this old guy is not only a gambler, but also an outlaw, originally he thought that Archduke Francis was just well-informed and very bold, and after a long time, this old guy didn't care about life and death at all.

The timid are afraid of the bold, the bold are afraid of the arrogant, and the arrogant are afraid of dying, not to mention that this desperate guy still has hundreds of thousands of fierce troops in his hands, what kind of general is really leading what kind of soldiers, it seems that those henchmen and generals under the Grand Duke Francis are also a virtue. Otherwise, how could he be so relieved that a bold person would run into the enemy formation, with hundreds of thousands of desperate troops like him staring behind, he really didn't need to worry about anything.

"And what about your answer?"

Archduke Francis asked rhetorically with a handful of warm spring water poured on his face.

"Agreed, of course agreed" Feng Kan glanced at Jace, who was casually satisfied with his face, and nodded fiercely, "The key is not this truce, it's on this 'indefinite' period, right?"

"That's true. Jace closed his eyes and chirped, "In fact, the present form is in our favor, as long as we hold the southern shore of the newly formed lake, there is no way for Volcan to start a war again, even if they want to continue the offensive, then they must first build a ship, if they want to build a ship, then the movement will not be small, and we are not blind and deaf on our side, so we will not be on guard? Attack from the shore into the water - I think as long as we are not too stupid to know the result." ”

"And the soldiers of Volcan don't have much experience in water warfare, so even if they really want to fight, they can only stare at the other side of the lake. ”

"So, you don't want to fight either?" Feng Kan asked with a smile as he rolled his eyes.

"It's not that I don't want to, but I can't, of course it's best to be able to take Reston Castle, but ......" Archduke Francis gave him a blank look, "If we can't beat it, we won't have much to lose, will we?"

"I have to say, your logic is really weird. Feng Kan shook his head in a sleepy way, Archduke Francis's thoughts are really difficult to understand, it is really the first time he has seen someone who can express hostility so frankly in the face of the enemy, in the eyes of this old fellow, war is like a deal, listening to his tone, the two sides are now just doing nothing to make or lose.

"There are some things you don't know about the Holy Jamins Empire. Archduke Francis said meaningfully, "It's like there's something about you that I don't know." Wouldn't it be nice for us to know that the current action would be beneficial to both sides?"

Feng Kan was silent, he really didn't know much about the Jamins Empire, I am afraid that he didn't know anything except that it was a huge empire composed of hundreds of small countries.

The so-called forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, such a big empire, no one can say how many forces are holding each other back and balance, Archduke Francis is only making the most correct choice now, no matter how strong the Duchy of Volcan is, it can't openly confront the entire empire.

"The situation in Restenburg is the most ideal at this stage, and I think that if there is an opportunity, it will not be so difficult to persuade other countries to form an alliance against the Hún Rebellion, and the difficult thing is that some people only focus on their own interests at the moment and obstruct them. ”

"Do you mean the guys from the Cult of the High God?"

"It's not all, but the main resistance is from them. ”

Grand Duke Francis sighed, "Those guys of the Supreme God Sect are determined to start this war, they can't easily believe in the imminent invasion of the Hún Chaos Army, even if they can believe that even if everyone on the continent unites, they will do everything possible to snatch the dominance of the alliance into their own hands, only I am absolutely sure of this." ”

"TMD" Feng Kan scolded viciously, "The fire is big, Lao Tzu will take people to destroy them all"

He's really hot, I believe that not many people will like this kind of smoky and stupid guy, right?

"To tell you the truth," Archduke Francis glanced at Mr. Mu, who was standing up from the pool next door, "with the strength of your hands, I believe you can definitely do it." ”

"And you're going to support me doing the same?"

"But it's not a question of whether you can do it, it's what the benefits are. ”

"Uh......" Faced with this question, Feng Kan couldn't help but be speechless, he was just congested in his brain for a while, and he didn't think about things so deeply.

"It has been almost a thousand years since the Cult of the Most High God was founded," Archduke Francis continued, "and it is not an exaggeration ......to say that the foundation of the Holy Jamins Empire is in the Cult of the Supreme God"

(But I don't think you seem to respect them very much) Although he thought so in his heart, Feng Kan did not interrupt Archduke Francis's words, he knew that what the Grand Duke said now was actually mentioning the main points of dealing with the Supreme God Cult in the future

“...... Although the prestige of the Cult of the Supreme God is not as great as it used to be because of something seventy-five years ago, they have infiltrated every aspect of the empire for thousands of years, and the intertwined power relations among them have not been clear for a few days and nights. If it was not enough to annihilate everything on the surface of the church, it was not enough to deal a fatal blow to this behemoth, as long as one of those fanatical believers could be spared, then the damage they could cause in the shadows was absolutely unimaginable. ”

"Because of faith?"

"That's right, even if the Cult of the Supreme God, as the only sect in the empire, cannot influence the decisions of the upper nobles, the support it can gain among the people should not be underestimated. It is precisely because of this that the imperial royal family cannot take action against the Supreme God Cult casually. ”

"Speaking of which, you seem to hate them. ”

"It's not a hate, it's a lot of annoyance"

"But you can't do anything about them. ”

"That's it, these guys are not as unscrupulous as they used to be, and to be honest, seventy-five years ago, the Cult of the Supreme God had the right to appoint and dismiss kings. ”

"So as long as they're not too much, you can't just cut them in, can you?"

"There's no way~~" Archduke Francis sighed loudly, "It's not good for both sides to push these madmen into a hurry, and no one will know what those madmen will do." ”

Feng Kan nodded sympathetically, he knew a lot about what religious madmen would do, and on earth, there was actually a proper definition of this kind of person - terrorist.

Although terrorists are not necessarily fanatical religious elements, the vast majority of fanatical religious elements are terrorists.

Since September 11, 2001, all people on the planet have a very intuitive understanding of how destructive such people can be.

"So, leave the affairs of the empire to me," Archduke Francis patted Feng Kan on the shoulder and stood up from the pool, the tangled muscles and countless scars of all sizes made him not look like an old man who was almost fifty years old at all.

"Huh?" Feng Kan woke up from his contemplation and looked at Archduke Francis blankly, "You want to go back now?"

"How is that possible?" said Archduke Francis gave him a condescending glance, "Anyway, I have to get Bōtelar to go around the circle, right?" I heard that Fastro VII was a young and promising monarch, and I have long admired his great name, and I will not be able to sleep well at night unless I take such a good opportunity to meet him. ”

"So here ......"

"The Reston Castle affair is over," Jace rose from the water, "and I think we'll be in the same trench when we meet Barron Barnett again." ”

"So you're okay?"

"We're fine, but you're okay. Archduke Francis's jiān smile made Feng Kan's scalp tingle for a while.

"Huh?"

"That's right, you're still in trouble," unexpectedly, and this time Jace also smiled maliciously.

"What do you mean, when did you two wolf bèi for jiān?"

"No, no, no, we don't mean anything else, but it's really only Sir Ken Feng Kan who is best suited to do it. ”

"What?...... We don't want to do anything that is fun in advance."

"How is that possible?" Jace shook his head helplessly in the face of Feng Kan with a wary face, "It's just that there is no one more suitable for Grand Duke Francis's escort to Bōtelral than you." ”
