Lord of War

54. The Brewing Storm

Formal negotiations began only after paying 500,000 yuan in compensation.

This kind of thing is very funny no matter how you look at it, not to mention that the Boulder family didn't believe it, even Asuna couldn't believe it after hearing it. But in fact, this matter is not just talk, Sean is really doing it.

The news was sent back to the real mission of Mordegg through remote magic communication at the first time. Regarding this matter, the first reaction of the mission was to fly into a rage, and the instruction sent back was to ignore it, but Xiao En simply said, since you ignored me, of course I would not bother you, and just drove him away. Leaving Baige Town, they didn't even have a chance to meet with Lonnis and Rude.

The two gold-level powerhouses really wanted to show their power, but they were stopped by the middle-aged man, which made them very angry.

As strong people, when have they been insulted like this?

Regarding this point, the envoys located in the Mordeg Territory naturally attacked Simi and Vivian immediately. Regarding this kind of matter, Simi has quite a lot of experience in dealing with such matters. He simply dismissed the problem by saying "I will talk to Asuna-sama". Asuna talked about it, but even if the members of these missions wanted to, they had to be able to see Asuna.

As a result, the negotiations, which were supposed to be going well, have come to an impasse because of Sean's problem. At present, they can only wait for Duke Hatch's latest instructions.

"Be careful that they will retaliate." William watched the three of the envoys leave, yawned lazily, and wanted to get on the horse again, "The combination of two gold-level powerhouses is probably enough to send us away." All of these people were wiped out."

"You're exaggerating." Sean said calmly. "The casualties will be more severe, but the two of them will never leave alive."

"You're really confident." William glanced at Sean, with a lazy look and no sense of tension.

"You're not nervous at all." Sean chuckled lightly.

William sighed resignedly, with emotion on his face: "I was tricked into boarding the pirate ship by you. Now I can't get off the ship even if I want to. You must be responsible to me."

"Don't say such disgusting things."

William gave Sean a blank look.

At that moment, there are so many styles.

Sean shuddered suddenly, causing Cecilia, Rena, and Fred to laugh out loud.

"What should we do next?" Cecilia looked at Sean and asked. "It's okay if the opponent is attacking from the front. We are afraid that the opponent will attack secretly, so we can't defend against it with our strength."

"Lord Sean, I suggest you stay in the barracks during this time." Rena thought for a while, and then said. "In this way, it is easier for us to carry out targeted layouts to prevent all possible accidents."

"I think so too, Sean." Alfred also nodded, "It would actually be better if you lived in the barracks these days."

He was different from Rena, Alfred never called Sean an adult or anything else, he just called him by name. Although this behavior made Rina feel very inappropriate, since Sean didn't say anything, Rina certainly wouldn't point out Alfred's mistakes. Rina, who was born as a low-level mercenary, has a keen intuition that others don't have. And rich experience, this point in Sean's entire inner circle, except for Alfred, no one can compare with Reina.

"It's not necessary." Sean shook his head. "Bolder will definitely not mess around. We don't have any enemies now, so we don't need to worry about others taking advantage of troubled waters."

"Then where is Asuna-sama?" Rena asked.

"Well, Asuna probably won't see these envoys, and Simmy and Vivienne will probably be in charge of handling it. I'm afraid even Elizabeth won't show up." Sean thought for a while. Then he said, but his tone was not so sure, "So in the end they still have to find a way to talk to us, which is our advantage.... But. The next time they come, I'm afraid it won't be on such a scale. And It’s an official diplomatic mission, so the pressure will naturally be quite high.”

"Pressure?" A group of people were a little at a loss.

"For an official diplomatic mission, there will definitely be an accompanying army. Even if it's not the Tequila Cavalry, it must be the Tequila Black Guard." Cecilia said, "And there may be no strong sanctuary, but the strong gold Probably not too little."

Everyone gasped.

The Tequila Cavalry and the Tequila Black Guard, although they are the private army of the Duke of Tequila, Hatch Boulder, are extremely famous in the Kingdom of Darbion. The Tequila Cavalry was the only army capable of confronting Asuna's Thundering Front in the early stage of the war between the two countries. Later, when it was transferred to the second front, it once let Asuna They are all annoyed, and their combat effectiveness is second only to the Royal Guards and the Third Garrison of the Kingdom of Darbion.

Since the Tequila Blackguard can be compared with the Tequila Cavalry, its combat effectiveness is naturally conceivable.

However, in Xiao En's eyes, the judgment is easier. Both the Tequila Cavalry and the Tequila Black Guard belong to the fourth-level army.

This is a headache for William.

The headache for Rena and Alfred is the aspect of high-end combat power.

As we all know, the Dabion Kingdom is a kingdom that has not been passed down for a long time. The number of its sanctuary powerhouses is naturally smaller than that of other kingdoms and empires, but it still has a double-digit number. Of course, this number refers to the sum of the sanctuary powerhouses under the command of all the nobles in the entire kingdom, not the number owned by the royal family alone. However, if a full-scale war breaks out, the kingdom certainly has the right to call these sanctuary powerhouses.

The Boulder family only has one sanctuary powerhouse, so it is obviously impossible to send them out, but there will probably be a lot of gold-level powerhouses. At the very least, it’s okay to send four or five people out. In terms of pure deterrence, the five gold powerhouses are indeed enough to show the strength and heritage of the Boulder family. Is there only a high-ranking gold powerhouse like Vivian under Sina's command?

So everyone was thinking, if the other party really came so aggressively, how should they deal with it?

At the very least, they cannot show weakness, otherwise they will definitely be overwhelmed by the opponent's momentum at the negotiating table. And once in this passive environment, the chessboard that Xiao En has worked so hard to spread will be overturned by the opponent with the same unreasonable means. If Xiao En really wants to continue to be arrogant and unreasonable at that time, then even Moving out of Asuna will definitely not keep him, because the other party is going there as a regular envoy, and the minimum respect is naturally necessary.

Otherwise, Sean is the one to blame, so in order to protect the dignity and face of a duke, no one can blame him for killing a little knight who is not even a nobleman. The reason why Xiao En dared to be so arrogant today was that the other party was here to negotiate in name, but he was not a formal envoy, so he did not occupy any name.

Next time, the other party will naturally not give Sean such a loophole.

"It's okay, what should we do at that time, or what to do." Sean shrugged, "I will continue to come forward in the negotiation, but you don't need to have any burdens. At most, we will suffer a little. Anyway, the real gain is also In other places."

"Other places?" Rena and Alfred were at a loss.

"Hmph, do you think he'll spit out the territory that this guy has robbed?" William snorted coldly, "But if you want to keep Rude without a proper reason, it won't be easy.  … …And recently his relatives seem to be in a hurry, and they don’t know which nobleman they have connected with, and they don’t know what they are doing secretly. However, there are currently three small-scale troops entering this territory. With An Nuo's ability to lead the army and the strength of the troops, if civil strife breaks out, he will definitely not be able to suppress it."

"Let Alfred take someone there." Sean said without thinking, "It doesn't make sense for the steel wings to stay here in the territory now, and you also need to take over the Chirav Territory."

"I'll go over there in person." William nodded, and only at this time would he show a serious expression, "It's just that the situation in the territory is not stable now, are you sure you don't need the steel wings to stay? The white wing mercenaries and the army that you have not completely tamed so far are not very reliable, right?"

"Even if we gather the troops of the entire territory, can we overwhelm the Tequila cavalry and the black guards in momentum?" Sean rolled his eyes at William, "We can't hide what should come, and if we really do this, the other party will think we are too If you are too timid, you might as well let nature take its course.”

Now that Sean has already talked about this, William of course will not say anything, just nodded, and then directly issued a new combat order, and he didn't even bother to go back to the barracks.

"By the way, did Neil tell you about the shock shield?"

"Alright." William nodded and said, "Let's make a hundred noodles first, those goblins and dwarves are very interested, but it will take about two to three months....Why, do you need it urgently? "

"It's okay, this matter is not urgent for the time being, I can leave after negotiating with Boulder."

"Leaving? Where are you going?"

"Wild land." Sean said, "This place, after all, has to be visited by myself. ... So when the time comes, the issue of the territory will be handed over to you and Neil."

Hearing that Sean was going to be the shopkeeper again, William wished he could slap Sean to death. It's just that after thinking about it for a while, he no longer needs to be responsible for the government affairs of the territory, so the idea of ​​shooting Xiao En to death is a little lighter.

And it was almost the three members of the Boulder family envoy who had just been driven out of Baige Town, when two teams entered Panda from different directions.

A convoy, and an army. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (m) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
