Chapter 837: "·Intimidation and temptation"

The one who oppresses me is my soul who wants to go out, or is it the soul of the world who knocks on the door of my heart and wants to come in?
Rabin Deran Tagore (Indian poet, philosopher and Indian nationalist)
"Do you think that I will believe your threat?" Charlotte, with a calm expression, walked to Charlotte's table and pointed to the magic map that was flat on the table: "Baifeng, let's take a look at you first The current strength distribution."
"Among the six eastern provinces of the Tianlong Empire, there are four provinces that can be said to be completely under your control; among them, the 50,000 troops of the five Eastern Legions formed by your own need not be loyal to you. This is a fact that everyone knows."
"Compared with the five less powerful Eastern legions, it seems that the six standing legions under the Duke of Gurner are your true strength; after all, these 120,000 people are elite soldiers, but from the blood of the corpse mountain Killed veterans of a hundred battles."
"If you add the extremely large number of city defense troops you formed in the four eastern provinces; only in the four eastern provinces of the Dragon Empire, the army loyal to you will reach a staggering 300,000. This does not include you. The army of two closely related dukes."
"The Duke of Kleist, who is in charge of one of the five top families of the Dragon Empire, is barely your half-grandfather. I can understand his support for you; and what puzzles me is that the newly-raised Dragon Dested How could the Duke and you be so intimate?"
Charlotte, who only talked about herself, didn't seem to notice Bai Feng's increasingly ugly face. She continued on her own: "Apart from the 300,000 troops far away in the eastern part of the Tianlong Empire, you are in Besancon The provincial power is also very powerful."
"The five standing legions under the command of the Dragon Army are under your control, and you are in full control step by step. With your wrist, the four standing legions newly sent by the Duke of Coulomb are believed to be the same as the Eastern Legions in not long. Be your heirs."
"Nine standing legions, plus the already formed spear legion and the newly formed cavalry legion, as well as the Yulin legion, the blaze legion, and the blast legion following you to Besançon; the number of troops under your command already exists As many as 330,000."
"In this regard, it does not include your personal guard composed of the most elite soldiers, with a total strength of nearly 50,000; as for the Spartan Corps that appeared out of thin air, and the death camp that can only be counted as cannon fodder, I think they themselves It may belong to the'non-existent' troops."
"Huh...Your Highness Charlotte, talk about your real purpose." After the unsettled Charlotte finished, Bai Feng, who breathed a long breath, said very calmly: "I believe that Guiting is so exhausted. Investigate me, there must be a picture!"
"Of course!" Charlotte glanced at Bai Feng quite proudly before using a gentle tone: "The reason we spend time and energy to understand you in detail is not to deliberately make you difficult, but just want to be better. Are just friends with you."
"It seems that I'm ignorant." Bai Feng couldn't help but ridicule when he heard Charlotte say: "I have seen many ways of making friends when Bai Feng arrived when I was young, Guiting's way of making friends , See you for the first time!"
"It's okay to see you for the first time, as long as you're used to it, as long as we can finally become friends, these unsatisfactory processes are negligible, aren't we?" Charlotte, who is insulted, can always say that Bai Fengqi Come if your teeth tickle.
"Compared to the doomed result, I prefer to enjoy the process leading to the result." Bai Feng, who was indifferent, did not want to go to the nonsense of Charlotte, he said straightforwardly: "I have not much time tonight , If you have something to say, hurry and speak."
"Since you don't have much time, I will make a long story short." Knowing that I have touched Charlotte at the bottom of Bai Feng, I immediately made my request: "I hope that you can join us in secret and become one of our churches. Member!"
"Impossible! I..."
"Don't rush to refuse, let me finish talking first." Waiting for Bai Feng to finish refusing, Charlotte speeded up and said: "Before you make a decision, you should patiently listen to me to make conditions; you and me You know, I can’t give you any benefits.

"As long as you are willing to secretly join our Holy See and go to the Holy Mountain of the Holy See for Pope baptism, you will personally give you the title of honourable Son under the crown of the Pope; in the next ten years, you will become a secular world with the full support of our Holy See King of a country."
"If you are unwilling to stay and develop in the secular world, then the position of Cardinal Archbishop of Scola will be succeeded by you within five years; in addition, our Holy See will ensure your current power and status The impact of joining the Holy See."
According to Bai Feng, the request and price offered by Saint Charlotte are temptations that are difficult for anyone to refuse; whether it is the king of a country or the cardinal of the Holy See, there are countless The pinnacle of power that people dream of for life.
It is a pity that Bai Feng, who is sitting in the Roman city, is obviously not among this group of people; the so-called secular kings and cardinals have not yet been seen by Bai Feng, fortunately he is also a person who has been an emperor of the Roman Empire, and will care Are these imaginary things?
"Do you think I will agree to the request?" Bai Feng, who didn't immediately refuse, asked in a faint tone: "Or, why do you think that the price you offered will definitely impress me? Even if the price you offer It is indeed very rich."
Although it was impossible for Bai Feng to agree to join the Holy See to receive the baptism of the Pope, he also did not directly refuse Charlotte's solicitation on behalf of the Holy See; because the price offered by Charlotte made him understand that the Holy See's ambition for this matter must be won.
It is unreasonable and stupid to stand opposite the extremely powerful Holy See now; let alone say, it is only necessary for the Holy See to hand over all the secrets about Bai Feng to Charles Emperor of the imperial capital. It's going to be lost.
In order to stabilize the Holy See, Bai Feng knew that he had to make appropriate compromises; at the speed of the development of the Roman city and the changes in the situation of the Tianlong Empire, Bai Feng was confident that while dragging the Holy See with the word drag, he quickly accumulated Strength enough to reverse the situation.
In a short period of time, Bai Feng’s primary goal is to ensure that his status in the Tianlong Empire is not shaken by anyone; when no one can suppress him in the Tianlong Empire, then the handle held by the Holy See is Baibai’s handle and threat. ?
"Because everything you do shows that you are an ambitious person; and an ambitious person will never refuse the benefit of sending it to your door." Charlotte with full confidence, staring at Bai Feng formally said: "Your Excellency Bai Feng , Will you join us in secret?"
Bai Feng, annoyed by Charlotte, decided to pit the Holy See fiercely, so the lion said: "I can promise you, join the Holy See secretly and accept the baptism of the Pope, but I want to build on the original conditions, Add three more conditions!"
"Three conditions?" Charlotte, who was hard to see, frowned and said, "You say first, but I may not be able to agree."
"Whether you can promise or not, I must ask your Holy See to agree to these three conditions!" Facing Charlotte's hesitation, Bai Feng's attitude was very firm: "Otherwise, I would rather kill the net and not compromise with your Holy See." !"
