Heimuguan slowly opened the gate to the empire side, and an iron bridge stretched across the moat.
At the end of the moat, more than two dozen people stood, one of them holding a flag with a bipedal dragon painted on it, which also proved the identity of the person who came: Earl John of the Davis family.
Ten of the group of people stood at the forefront, and it was Count John and his envoy.
Since the last incident of shelling the camp, the empire has been increasing troops here, but has not launched a real attack. However, according to the careful observation of the mages on the side of Kuroki Pass, the other side sent personnel to investigate the outpost camp many times, and I must have a certain understanding of the power of the artillery here. Anyone who has seen the tragedy of the outpost camp, knowing how much time the people at the Blackwood Gate spent to turn it into this way, will always seriously consider the consequences before sending troops.
At the other end of the iron bridge, Count John was met by Shi Hao, head of the 2nd regiment of the current military chief guard of Heimuguan, Liu Xiang, political commissar of the 2nd regiment, Huang Zheng, chief of the independent battalion, and Xiao Chen, chief executive of Heimuguan As well as external consultants and experts Zhang Hong, Roger, Evelyn and others. And there is Master Olgas, who has already surrendered to the Tower of China.
Seeing Earl John coming from across the road, Olgas whispered to Shi Hao: "Head Stone, this is the guy we came over to see the bustling outpost camp, and then we were blown away by us. Hey, with In his personal experience, he can now be regarded as the man with the deepest knowledge of the power of artillery among the imperial nobles. "
"It's best to know. I don't want to waste time with people who can't figure out the situation." Shi Hao said.
Earl John was in his early forties, his eyes were sharp, his temperament was tough, he was wearing an exquisite steel armor, and he was wearing a cloak behind him, and his hands were on the long sword, which was very noble.
Behind him was a flag officer holding up the family banner for him, followed by entourage dressed by several noble warriors and a wizard wearing a robe. These people all look very capable and powerful, obviously they are all the elite under his command.
When they walked across the bridge to the Blackwood Pass, the flag officer reported a series of titles of Earl John. What the guardian of the southern frontier of the empire, the inheritor of the blood of the two-legged dragon, the head of the Davis family, etc., heard Shi Hao and Xiao Chen could not help but want to laugh.
However, locals such as Earl John and Olgas are quite commonplace. Obviously, this is the usual way of local roll call. Such a link shows that the other party attaches great importance to this meeting and the specifications are also very high.
After the official Zhang Qi finished his name, Shi Hao simply said: "I am Shi Hao, the commander here. This is Xiao Chen, the chief executive of Heimuguan. Now I will manage this place together. "
Earl John did not take this lightly introductory explanation seriously, and said, "His Excellency Shi Hao, I have the will of His Majesty Alfred to come and talk to you about the issue of Kuroki Pass and the current war. First of all, I would like to congratulate you, the Tower of China, for winning this level. You have not communicated with the Purple Eagle Empire. I believe we can discuss the possibility of cooperation between the Empire and the Tower of China in a while. "
Shi Hao was a little surprised by the attitude of the other party. He originally thought that the other party would at least make use of their previous bombardment of the outpost camp, but now the other party ’s attitude seems to be much better than he expected. Come talk, I welcome on behalf of the Tower of China. "
Earl John nodded and looked at Olgas, "Your Excellency Olgas, when I saw you again, you had lost control of the Blackwood Pass. For my old opponent, it was really It's regrettable. "
auzw.com Olgas smiled and said: "We can't be called our old opponents. My old opponent has always been the Duke of Stuart. Ha ha, I hope you can come back this time. I will bring a good deal to your boss. "
Earl John said with a smile, "That's natural."
Shi Hao and his entourage took Earl John into Heimuguan. Earl John looked around, but he did n’t see anything new in Guanguan, especially the
cannon
that he was very concerned about. Although he did n’t know what those things looked like, but through the descriptions of the black guards, there was still a Simple concept, he didn't see anything similar along the way.
Xiao Chen smiled and asked, "His Excellency, what are you looking for? Are you looking for those guns?"
Earl John simply nodded and admitted: "Yes, when you bombarded our outpost camp that day, I felt that kind of power. So naturally I want to see what makes me so embarrassed."
Xiao Chen said: "This is not difficult, if the negotiation goes well, I can arrange for you to see the actual appearance of the pneumatic gun."
"Really? I didn't expect you to be so generous." Count John said.
"Sometimes recognizing the strength of both sides will be of great help to cooperation. After all, many conflicts come from misunderstandings, don't they?" Xiao Chen pointed to the position above the checkpoint fence, and said, "I know that your count Olgas has faced off here for many years, and you have always won and lost each other, but today, everything is different. In the last battle, in fact, we only used two guns, and now There are more than ten times more cannons on the walls. You have experienced the feeling of being bombarded by cannons. Think about it if you add ten times more? "
"Although the last bombardment had good power, I still walked away with the explosion. Many times the change in quantity will not bring about an essential change. The Empire also has a lot of power that you have not seen, but we There is no need to use these forces on each other if there are no grudges? "Earl John forgets Xiao Chen with a deep meaning:" Don't forget our common enemy. The arrogant girl Occupy your king capital. "
Xiao Chen asked: "It seems that you are very good at temporarily suspending disputes and looking for common enemies."
"The last battle was a mean attack and a serious provocation. If we are prepared, the result will be very different. We never expected that the Chinese who had no contact with us would take the initiative to attack our camp.
Of course we care about the sacrifice of our warriors, but His Majesty the Emperor is generous and generous. As long as you can meet our requirements, the Empire can not pursue these matters. "
"What requirements?" Xiao Chen asked.
"The simple requirement is to open the Blackwood Pass and allow our troops to enter the hinterland of the kingdom. We will not cause you trouble. Our enemy is always the royal family of the kingdom of Iberia."
