Chapter 383: Sir Jumonville


The result proved that Joan was a false alarm.
The ring did not set any dangerous traps. Unscrew the cover on the top of the ring to reveal a carved pattern.
The outline of the pattern looks like a small shield with a rose flower engraved on it, and red ink mud remains between the delicate textures of the carvings.
Joan saw that this was a "sign ring" that was often used to stamp documents. The exquisite emblem on the ring was clearly a noble coat of arms.
Unfortunately, he didn't know much about heraldry, and he couldn't remember which noble's coat of arms was the combination of "shield" and "rose", but he was a little sure that the man wearing this ring must be a noble. master.
However, he had become a cold body, unable to answer Joan's doubts.
Joan took the remote control "Master's Hand" to take off the seal ring and figured out his pocket. Only the last clue left was the letter in his hand.
He hesitated for a while, but he couldn't stop curiosity after all. He carefully opened the envelope, took out a page of stationery, and quickly scanned it. His face became a little ugly.
The contents of the letter confirmed his hunch.
This is a letter from Governor Alfonso Antonioni, Governor of Musbelheim, to Sir John Norfolk, Governor of Alfheim.
In his letter, Count Antonioni stated clearly that he accepted Sir Norfolk’s initiative to resolve the legacy of border demarcation by peaceful consultation rather than military confrontation.
The two governors also reached a consensus in the letter that they believed it was necessary to hold a formal demarcation negotiation with a view to completely ending the border dispute around Brass Pass.
In order to express sincerity, Count Antonioni specially formed an envoy to send his reply to Sir Norfolk in Port Leiden and to discuss the preparations for the demarcation negotiations.
This envoy consists of 12 diplomats and the navy cavalry escorting them.
The chief representative of the envoy was the body lying next to Joan, Sir Joseph Jumonville, the hereditary aristocrat of the Aquamarine Kingdom, and also the official responsible for foreign affairs of the Maritime Government in the Musbelheim colony.
The thin stationery in his hand seemed to have become so heavy that Joan couldn't breathe, making him realize that he and his comrades had just made a serious mistake that might even cause irreparable consequences.
Joan did not dare to make his own claim, and quickly took the letter and seal to seek Magni Bovatan.
"Brother Magni, we are afraid that we will have a big disaster..."
"What's wrong, Joan, you look so ugly."
Joan didn't make a sound, and passed the letter.
Magni glanced at it hurriedly, and said with a chin touched, "No wonder the group of sea-blue men just didn't fight, it turned out to be just a messenger, and it seems that we won not be glorious."
"Brother Magni, the key is that the leader of the other party is a diplomat from the navy nobility, who shoulders the mission of peace, and is now dead here... we may not be able to explain." Joan's face was gloomy.
The accidental death of Sir Joseph Jumonville is likely to intensify the original gunpowder-flavored border dispute between Yalfheim and Mossberheim, and the efforts of the governors of the two parties to peace negotiations will be dissipated. It's too serious, Joan couldn't even think about it.
Magni, a rude man from an indigenous tribe, didn't seem to realize the seriousness of the problem. Hearing Joan's concerns, he laughed indifferently, hugged his shoulder and comforted:
"Is there anything to worry about? The other party arbitrarily entered our site in navy uniforms, and did not make an explanation before the war. It is also deserved to die. We don't need to be responsible for this!"
Joan smiled bitterly.
Sir Jumonville tried to explain, but unfortunately they killed too fast, and they didn't wait for others to explain their intentions.
"Okay, Joan, don't worry, this matter is just a misunderstanding in the end, even if someone is responsible for this, there is also a big brother who is holding it up and will not be implicated in you."
Magni's comfort could not make Joan relieved.
In fact, he suspected that Magni and even Lieutenant Colonel Vasa were unable to bear the consequences of the accidental killing of Sir Jumonville.
The opponent is not only a diplomat representing the Governor of the Musbelheim colony, but also a navy aristocrat, whose family power and even the navy royal family may not be willing to give up.
After all, Joanne is just a small person. This matter involves the dispute between the two great powers. He thought it would be useless no matter what. He followed Magni back to the camp with great thoughts, and sent the letter and the seal of Sir Jumonville. He handed it over to George Vassar and recounted what he knew.
Of course, George Vassar’s political mind was far from Magny’s stubborn man. After hearing Joan’s words, he immediately realized that there was a big disaster. He hurriedly opened the letter and read it again, frowning and thinking deeply.
Seeing Vasa's face so ugly, Magni was really a little scared at the moment. He touched the back of the head and asked humbly, "George, is the problem really serious?"
George Vaasa took a deep breath and replied as quietly as possible:
"Sir Joseph Jumonville, who came to the Musbelheim colony from the Hailan native last autumn, is engaged in trade and diplomacy coordination."
"Frankly, I don't know much about him, but he has a more famous brother. The name of this person must have been heard by you, that is Louis Jumonville."
"Louis Jumonville... is that new garrison commander of the Musbelheim colony?" Magni finally changed his face.
"Yes, that is General Jumonville!"
A bitter smile appeared on George Vasa's lips.
"This person is a representative of the young and navy of the navy military. After taking over the colonial defense, he showed a radical and aggressive style. He took the initiative to provoke border friction on many occasions, intending to bring the disputed area around the Brass Pass to his control."
"An ambitious figure like General Jumonville, if he knew his brother was killed by our army, how could he bear this breath?"
"Since General Louis Jumonville took over as commander of the Musbelheim garrison, he first established a military stronghold named Dukenberg in the disputed border area, and then encouraged the jackal robbers to rob north through the brass pass. Border conflict."
Major Green also frowned, expressing similar concerns as Lieutenant Colonel Vaasa.
"Louis Jumonville is worried that there is no excuse to start a war, but we just killed his elder brother at this juncture. With this man's domineering style, we will definitely play by the topic and set off a storm..."
"People have been killed, and there is no way to regret it. The impact of this matter is too great. We are not able to decide on the follow-up development. The top priority is to report this change to the Governor General and ask him to make a decision." Lieutenant Colonel Vaasa Turned around and looked at Joan, "The military situation is urgent, you can use the "SMS" scroll to report."
