Different World Development Manual Chapter 160: Olive branch
Cape Duke, Mantuen fortress.
This is a huge fortress built on the north bank of the Aran River in the Duke of Cape.
The Duke of Dekhbas leads the western border of the Iris River through Dekhbas, where it meets with the Aran River.
This fortress is the key to keeping Dekhbas from going north along the Iris River, and it is the only way for Dekhbas to go north.
Emperor Norman’s army is stationed in this huge fortress. The "unfortunate" death of the Duke of Capet also caused the entire Prince of Capet to be caught in a battle for the title of his heirs.
Even in this situation, the sons of Duke Capet have already prepared their arms for the title of Duke Capet.
Fortunately, with the appearance of the Norman Emperor, these dukes and heirs had to put down the hilt and discuss another day.
The news of Fuxi’s death made Norman in the Mantuen Fortress painful for several days. The 320,000 army was destroyed in a few days south of the Alan River. The famous empire Fuxi was alive and dead, and the Demon King’s army was powerful. Has completely exceeded Norman's expectations.
Norman even regrets a bit, whether it is correct to use the hand of the Demon King's army to slash the domain.
Fortunately, the Demon King’s Army did not show too strong aggression. After the eastward advance to annihilate Florence and Capet’s allied forces, it immediately shrank the line of defense and retreated into the Duke of Deherbas.
After the combined forces of Taklan and Wea were quickly defeated, the Demon King's Army did not launch a further offensive north of the Aran River.
Even after receiving the news that the 330,000 troops of the Northern Queens had been destroyed, the Demon King Army after the war seemed to be mainly defensive warfare.
After defeating and capturing a large number of Imperial soldiers, he immediately retreated.
For a while, Norman couldn't figure out the idea of the Demon King's Army. This is a world apart from the extremely aggressive Demon King's Army recorded in history books.
It seems that the demon king army in front of me is not interested in eating the empire at all.
Fryya, Duchess of Anotei, came from the north with a large army. At this time, she was stationed in the capital of the Duke of Capet, the island city of Burri.
Like Norman, in the face of the news that the major lords’ expeditionary forces were completely wiped out, Freya did not dare to lead the army south easily. Instead, after arranging the defense line north of the Alan River, he rushed to Mantu without stopping En fortress, converge with the Norman Emperor.
Freya is not a female general. She walked to Norman's side in a beautiful long dress and said: "Your Majesty, the Demon King Army seems to have no plans to go north."
Although he wanted to cut through the entire abyss, Norman found that the power in his hand could not be penetrated at all, and even the Duke of Deherbas could not take it back.
Norman sullenly, nodded: "Well, I can’t figure out their intentions."
Norman and Freya’s coalition sent many small vanguard forces back and forth to cross the Aran River and infiltrate the south.
But once you cross the Alan River and show a trace of hostility to the Demon King's Army, you will be immediately wiped out by the Demon King's Army.
Freya said: "If the Demon King's army just stops at the Duke of Deherbas, then we and them will have room for maneuver.
I remember that it was An Rui's territory, and the first batch of diplomatic envoys also called them Chinese, and they should be An Rui's hometown. "
The meaning of Freya is obvious. Since the Huaxia people have no plans to go northward, they can obviously find An Rui to mediate and end this terrible war.
Norman thought about this idea, but Norman is not sure whether the Chinese people will accept it.
After all, the messenger sent by the assassination of the Huaxia people was instructed by Norman, in order to use the hands of the Huaxia people to weaken the power of the major lords in the empire.
The power of the major lords has indeed been weakened a lot, but the big hand of Huaxia that has reached into the empire is not something Norman can carry.
Even if An Rui is asked to mediate, Norman can't contact An Rui at all now.
Since An Rui went to the Emerald Forest in the south to ask the elves to join forces, An Rui has never heard from him.
God knows that An Rui died in the battle with the Huaxia in the Abyss?
is still a Chinese from his hometown?
And Norman cut his ambitions and tried to pierce through the abyss and rescued Margaret's heroic image finally erected.
If you are now presenting negotiations to the Chinese people, are you worthy of your bald head, worthy of the nobles and commoners who support you?
What's more, not only Margaret was captured, but Isabella was also captured by the Chinese, and the Chinese made him completely swept away.
Norman suddenly felt a feeling of riding a tiger. It was not about negotiating with Huaxia people, nor was it about fighting with Huaxia people.
At this time, a guard hurried in: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
Looking at the guards panicking, Norman and Freya felt tight, and they wondered if the Chinese people had begun to go north.
However, I saw the guard panting and saying, "'Voidwalker' is back."
Norman and Freya were taken aback: "Jacobin?"
Jacobin, the titled magician of the space system, was specially arranged by Norman to protect Margaret from the Abyss.
The last time China’s messenger appeared, it was to inform that both Margaret and Jacobin had been captured by China.
And what it means for Jacobin to appear here, two politically sensitive guys immediately smelled a glimmer of hope.
China released Jacobin, possibly extending an olive branch to the empire to release a signal for negotiation.
Norman got up from his seat with a "wow", greeted him with a few small steps, and said: "Quick! Where is the Excellency Jacobin? Where is it?"
Before Jacobin came to meet him, Norman took Freya to meet Jacobin next.
"Your Excellency!"
"Your Majesty!"
When the two met, Norman gave Jacob a hard hug.
As his confidant, Jacobin deserves such a hug.
Jacobin gently pushed Norman away, knelt on one knee, tearful, and apologized again and again: "Sorry, the veteran is still too weak. He failed to keep His Royal Highness Margaret, causing Margaret. Her Royal Highness and veteran officials have fallen into the hands of Huaxia people."
Norman shook his head: "I can't blame you, I can't blame you, Huaxia people are too powerful."
The powerful Norman of the Chinese people has already fully understood at this time, millions of troops have been wiped out in just two months, and this battle is simply impossible to fight.
gently helped Jacobin up, and asked with a look of concern: "Margaret, how is she?"
Jacobin nodded: "His Royal Highness is okay, but now he is under house arrest in Fort Anri.
Not only your Royal Highness ~ IndoMTL.com~ Duke Isabella, Queen Sisi, and Her Royal Highness Auli are also under house arrest in Fort Anri, and the Chinese have specially set up a "study class" for them. "
After hearing that Margaret was okay, Norman breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart, but he didn't expect that the great aristocrats captured by the Chinese were locked in Fort Anri.
"It’s okay, it’s okay."
Then Jacobin continued: "Duke Dekhbas, Aghanim brave An Rui is now cooperating with the Chinese."
Jacobin pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Understandable, it's his hometown after all."
Seeing that Norman was not irritated by this, Jacobin followed with a sigh of relief. Now, as the lord of the empire, An Rui is the key person in the communication between the empire and China.
And from what Jacobin has seen and heard, it seems that China regards An Rui very much.
If Norman becomes hostile to An Rui, it would be quite troublesome.
The strength of Huaxia people is obvious to all. Jacobin simply explained his experience with Margaret and what he saw and heard in Huaxia to Norman, and said: "Your Majesty, China is not something the empire can fight on its own. I am afraid it will have to unite the forces on the entire continent of Aghanim.
And Huaxia asked me to come back this time, just to let me bring back a piece of news that Huaxia is willing to conditionally negotiate with us for peace. "
Norman and Freya looked at each other, and as expected, Jacobin appeared here with an olive branch from China.
