Chapter 51 Transaction 2

Although in the eyes of many people, this is simply a rejection of negotiations, in the eyes of two of us who have other plans, these conditions are false. Because we do not need to occupy the city, and we do not intend to let the other party make compensation immediately.

Judging from Hegma's expression, it was almost a huge gap from when I first came to this world. When I first met the Black Wolf Legion, what I saw was an elite officer who wiped out two legions with 8 light cavalry divisions and had all the indicators; but now, he has become a down-and-out man who has been defeated several times. From the loneliness and dullness that appeared inadvertently, as well as the melancholy eyes, anyone could imagine his current mood.

"Earl of Hegma, I think you would be wrong. I am not here to persuade the surrender or ask for some spoils. I came here this time to represent our Sachs commander, to express our Majesty's yearning for peace to you." Norman's very sincere expression almost moved me by him. If I hadn't known that he had some understanding of my plan, I would have thought this guy was an angel.

"I hope so, then what are you going to do here? Just say this? Don't bend around the bush, just say it. As long as you stop siege for the time being, I can agree to you as long as I have a quota within my authority..." Hegema, who is nearly 40 years old, has already learned a lot about official articles or other aspects. Under the current circumstances, Huangshi City and Hegema are just pigs and sheep to be slaughtered, and he never had any plans for Xiaoxing.

"Then I will say it straight! Although it was your country's actions that triggered this war, our Majesty does not want this war to continue, and there is no intention to fight further. However, your country's previous manifestations of evil in the war have had a negative impact on our local troops. Now, whether it is our Majesty or the Sachs's Legion, it is difficult for them to suppress their determination to avenge their comrades.

In addition, you also know that the forces in our country are not so good at reflecting your country, and we are still urging our army to continue moving forward. Therefore, it is difficult for our Majesty to directly order the local army to give up their idea of ​​attacking your army.

But in order to save your people from bloody revenge, and for the long-term friendship and stability of our two countries, our Majesty decided not to send the Flame Legion and Special Attack Division to join the siege…”

"So, your other three divisions and the magicians will continue to attack the city?" Hegema's brows frowned even more, and his tone of speaking became quicker.

"Sorry, you should know that because your country's previous actions threatened the interests of those financial gangs led by the financial department of the country, and in this war, your country's massacre of captured soldiers and wounded soldiers also lost the face of the bigwigs of the Ministry of Military Affairs of the country. Now that they have joined forces, even our Majesty can't refuse their proposals, so we have this visit to see what can make up for the harmony between the two countries..." In a very natural sentence, Norman pushed all the problems and even became a good person.

"Hmph, 60,000 troops, plus the magicians, that's not the same as breaking our city... Not to mention this, I've already said last time that we have no food to wait for the arrival of the envoys sent by His Majesty the King to discuss peace, and I'm forced me to be impatient, so I'll even fight to the death and get you at the corresponding price... If nothing happens, you can go back!" Hegema was extremely disappointed when he heard this ending, but thinking that he had no price on hand now that the other party deserves to stop, Hegema had to give up the idea of ​​continuing to talk.

"Sir, I know that although our country's attack has caused great harm to the residents of your city, as far as I know, it is only about houses and property. There are not many casualties in the real middle-aged people. Wouldn't you mobilize more? In addition, our commander of the army also knows your difficulties and tries every means to purchase a batch of food and grass from various places in the name of private. I don't know you..."

"You mean..." Hegema's eyes almost immediately lit up after hearing Norman's words. He was not doing this, but due to food shortage, it would be fine if the civilians starved to death. But if the soldiers were hungry, the problem would be serious.

"Mr. Sacre can add that batch of grain to you, but you also know that these grains were purchased by us in our private name, and because of this situation, we have to be transported secretly. We have paid too much of it..." The implication is that it is money, how to pay.

"I can sell..." As soon as he said that, Hegma was in trouble again. Where can I have so much money to buy enough food for his army or even the entire city? Disbursement? The civilians have burned up all their houses now, and even the money has probably been made all by those black-hearted merchants. Looking for those nobles? It is estimated that even if His Majesty the King comes over, it will be difficult to squeeze out a copper coin...

"I don't have that much money now, but I can guarantee that as long as there is a truce, I will raise the money to Sach immediately. I wonder what you think?" He hesitated, Hegma made a suggestion that he felt unlikely.

"This... this is not very good. You should know that if the war is over, then we will definitely return to the imperial capital immediately, and it will be very troublesome in the future..." Just a polite word, who would believe the words afterwards? Could it be that if he didn't return, Sac would still risk the charge of colluding with the enemy and seek death.

"Sir, can't even raise so much money? I just saw that there are many nobles and wealthy businessmen here in your country! Can't you raise some money from them or borrow them? Do they refuse to give up such little money? They have to lose their heads before they are happy?" Seeing that the situation was a bit cold, I had to continue the topic.

"If possible, then I would have agreed to you a long time ago, but I really can't imagine it. But today I forced them to raise money, so I might not be able to survive the peace talks between our two countries." Zach smiled bitterly after hearing my words, his voice was so depressing.

"So, it's not convenient for you to ask for the nobles, so let's change it to us! We will ask for money for you and then send you food. Is this OK?"

"Xiao Shen, this is not a joke. Without taking down the city, how could we ask for money from the nobles in the city? This...this..."

Norman was confused by what I said. Although he is a noble now and I am still a civilian, since my military position is much higher than him, he has not said the following words for a long time. But those who should understand already understand what I mean. As soon as Hegmarillo hesitated, he immediately nodded his head fiercely. What does it mean to struggle? That's all...

"Then, I will ask the lord to hand over the 1/3 of the food we agreed on to you first, and then while exchanging the food and grass, I hope you have prepared what I need for me..." After hesitation, I was afraid that I would not understand enough, so I continued the next sentence "Those maps and notes for withdrawing money... and then I will ask the lord leader to hand over the remaining supplies to you. What do you think?" I am not afraid of him playing tricks for me, unless he wants to let himself and the entire city be buried with us. And I am not worried that Hegma is afraid that we will lie to him, because we don't have this need.

A weird, puzzling deal was accomplished
