Chapter 398: Threat is the basis of cooperation

"Master Rumyntsev, I heard that the rebels have arrived in the suburbs of Moscow. Here I wish you to lead the army to wipe out the rebellion and give the empire a bright world. Come and let us drink this cup!"

One walked to Gandalf with a tray with a wine glass. After Gandalf said this, the people around Gandalf and Rumensev picked up the wine glasses from the tray.

Seeing Gandalf's high interest, Rumentsev was naturally not disappointed, so he had to pick up a wine glass and signal to everyone.

"Congratulations to the Empire and to the Marshal!"

Gandalf shouted boldly and then picked up the glass full of wine and drank it all. Everyone around Gandalf also drank the wine in the glass. Seeing this situation, although Lumengcai

The husband was unwilling to do so, but he had to cooperate with everyone to dry the wine glasses.

Seeing Rumentsev's actions, Gandalf, who was the first to put down his wine glass, shouted loudly.

"Okay, Rumentsev is worthy of being the first general of the empire. Although he is over 60 years old, his passion remains unchanged back then. I am sincerely happy for the iron walls of me for the empire with the marshal!"

"Haha, Gandalf, we are old friends, just tell me if you have any problems!"

Gandalf's compliment only made Rumentsev's face show a smile, and then the marshal said to Gandalf with a point of view.

Hearing Rumentsev's question, a hint of embarrassment appeared on Gandalf's face. Obviously, Rumentsev's directness made Gandalf a little bit unrealized. However, an excellent nobleman must have the cultivation of calmness in the face of change, so

After just a moment of silence, Gandalf smiled and said:

"What does this mean by Marshal? Now the rebels are approaching the empire's accompanying capital. As the Duke of the empire, I am naturally extremely indignant. Today's dance party is held for the Marshal. Don't you think today's dance party can be extremely great.

Will it increase the morale in Moscow city?”

Gandalf's words made Rumentsev sneer in his heart. Although Rumentsev's family was also an old noble in the empire, Rumentsev believed that he was still very different from these arrogant, extravagant and lewd nobles. For example,

Rumentsev could give everything for the empire, including his own life. You should know that the marshal guard with a height of 1,000 people in Moscow was taken out by the Rumentsev family.

Therefore, Rumentsev naturally had no good feelings for those great nobles who were different from themselves and were stingy in nature and even were empire borers.

"His Excellency Gandalf, thank you very much for your kindness. But what I want to say is that Blankov's rebel is coming with a hundred thousand rebels. At such a moment, I must do my best to complete the entire Moscow Russia

City defense deployment, so if you have nothing else I need to leave!"

After saying that, before Gandalf could speak, Rumentsev turned around and showed his gesture to leave. Seeing Rumentsev turn, Gandalf's heart was cold. He quickly shouted:

"His Excellency Lumentsev, let's talk about it carefully. Please don't leave for the time being. I need some help."

Hearing Gandalf finally expressed his purpose, Rumentsev's face showed a clear smile

"Since Your Excellency Gandalf is so enthusiastic, then I might as well listen."

When Rumentsev's words came to an end, Gandalf felt that his heart was like a roller coaster. Of course, the premise was that Gandalf knew what a roller coaster was.

Gandalf bowed and led Rumentsev to the second floor, and only one of the adjutants of Rumentsev was followed by them. Although Rumentsev was better than Gan in terms of status and qualifications.

Dolf was tall and even Rumentsev's title was duke, but now Gandalf can be said to be a local snake in Moscow. Rumentsev's family went to St. Peter the Great when he moved the capital.

So in Moscow, Rumentsev really has nothing to play in his hands.

After entering the room and sitting down, Gandalf said hesitantly:

"Marson, I think you should know that in the suburbs of Moscow, my family owns a manor. It is the ancestral home where our Gandalf family has lived for more than a hundred years, and now the rebels of Blankov are far away from there and

It's not very far away. I hope that the Marshal can help me properly protect the century-old foundation of the next family!"

After hearing Gandalf's words, Lumentsev suddenly realized. It turned out that this was the case. No wonder Gandalf had such a big gap. It turned out that it was because of his ancestral home.

Basically, a family that has been passed down for a hundred years. No matter how many manors it has, one of them must be the most important base of the family. This is not only a place where the family's direct descendants live, but also a place for various affairs of all sizes and big things within the family.

What is important is that ancestral homes like this are the location of the family cemetery. Thinking of this, it is naturally not surprising that Gandalf's attitude changes.

The current era is not like later generations. In the 18th century, no matter which country or nation on the earth, they attach great importance to the ancestral tombs. The capture of the ancestral tombs has always been regarded as a great shame and humiliation, which can be regarded as a disagreement.

Dai Tian’s hatred is not like the one who can simply lose money in later generations.

Moreover, as the base of the home, the family's most precious treasures are hidden. Even in the basement of Gandalf's manor, there are as many as twenty large wooden boxes loaded with gold.

"His Excellency Gandalf, as far as I know, your manor in the suburbs of Nancheng is right within our army's defense circle, but because the location there is relatively remote, there are not many troops deployed in that location...

.....”

"How can that be, Lord Marshal!"

Before Rumentsev finished speaking, Gandalf interrupted Rumentsev impatiently, and Gandalf continued:

"Marson Marshal, what happened before was mine, but please understand that there is a family cemetery in my family's manor, and the close relatives of the Romanov dynasty were buried in the cemetery...

.....”

Although Rumentsev was a little surprised by the three royal families of the Romanov dynasty in the family cemetery that Gandalf said, these were not too big of a deal. For the great nobles of these empires, basically every generation of tsar would

Select close relatives from the family to marry these nobles. Over time, there were very few nobles who did not marry the royal family in the upper class of the Russian Empire.

Seeing Rumentsev's expression was not shaken at all, Gandalf knew that his words did not impress the marshal. Perhaps the tombs of the three close relatives of the royal family could scare a group of people, but Rumentsev would never be

Among these people who were scared, you should know that his son married a princess from the Romanov dynasty.

Gandalf gritted his teeth in his heart. Obviously, if there is nothing worth enough to impress this old guy, he will definitely not work hard on his own manor.

It’s not that Gandalf didn’t think about using his family’s armed forces to defend the foundation of the family, but with all his plans, Gandalf’s armed forces could only be used in about one thousand people. One thousand people seemed to be a lot, but don’t forget to cloth.

The rebels led by Rankov had a total of 100,000 people. If the rebels discovered the manor outside the city, they would definitely do their best to attack. After all, a manor of a great noble is definitely a symbol of wealth, so the rebels are

Never let it go.

Therefore, it is desirable to rely on one's own strength to defend the manor. Since that is the case, Gandalf can only ask for help, that is Marshal Rumentsev.

"Marson, if you can promise to do your best to help you defend the foundation of your ancestors, then you are willing to hand over more than a thousand children in your family to your command for your command to drive you, and I can also help you persuade a considerable number of people in the city.

The nobles provide you with the armed forces in your hands!”

In order to get Rumentsev to agree to his conditions, it can be seen that Gandalf has definitely put in some effort. He knew that Rumentsev was worried about Moscow's lack of defense, so he is not afraid of throwing this condition now.

Rumentsev did not accept it.

Sure enough, everything was as Gandalf expected. Perhaps Rumentsev didn't care much about money or anything, but now he has been trained and well-equipped aristocratic guards are very much for Rumentsev to care about.

When Gandalf said this, Rumentsev said without blinking his eyes, "Trade!"

....................................................

Gandalf was indeed a believer. On the second day after the dance, Gandalf not only ordered the thousand guards of his family to report to the Guards barracks in Moscow, but also convinced nearly forty nobles in the city.

These nobles provided Rumensev with a total of up to nine thousand troops.

Sitting on the high reviewing stand, looking at the soldiers below, Rumentsev felt excited. Many of these noble guards were very optimistic about Rumentsev because these

A person looks like a qualified warrior at first glance.

A soldier who has been tested on the battlefield will undoubtedly have a trace of murderous aura on his body. Maybe he can't notice it at ordinary times, but once he faces battle or gathers together on a large scale, this murderous aura will

Unknown emanates. As a war that has fought for decades, Rumentsev is naturally not unfamiliar with this murderous aura. Standing on the platform, he just glanced over and found that no less than a few hundred people revealed.

The murderous aura made Rumentsev feel satisfied. You should know that before these people came to the barracks, Rumentsev had always been afraid that Gandalf and the others would use inferior products as good ones, but now it seems that Gandalf and the others are doing pretty well.
