Release that Witch Chapter 644: New Age Diplomacy
...
After lunch, Roland called Barov into the bedroom.
This is the first time that Prime Minister has come to such a place. His hands and feet are obviously more restrained than before, but his face is very excited.
Seeing the performance of the other party, Roland couldn't help thinking of a celebrity in history who ran out of clothes to receive the visiting courtier, and the latter moved the story greatly. Obviously just lazy behavior, but let the old Prime Minister feel a strong sense of trust, which can be considered inadvertently.
I have to say that male officials have unique advantages in improving loyalty, such as talking by candlelight, sleeping with one's feet, and so on ... If you change to Edith Kant, I am afraid that is another idea.
He shook his head with a smile and set aside these thoughts, "How many letters have you received in total during the Northern Lands battle and coma?"
"A total of 16 letters," Barov quickly reported. "Most of them are letters from feudal lord requesting business or visits from other places. There are also two secret letters that eastern region guardian said to you in peace talks. one by one responded to the set request. "
According to the task given by the pre-war meeting, when King led the army, Neverwinter City was temporarily managed by Barov, and the letter sent to King was also read by him. If it is a special important message that exceeds the preset reply range, , And then send a flight messenger to the front line.
"Is it just a peace talk?"
"Yes ... they are not willing to surrender the subcontracting rights, and advise you to keep the tradition and glory of noble."
"When the spring begins next year, the people will naturally know what choice to make." Roland shrugged. "So what do I need to do in person? Where did you send it?"
"One from City of Dawn astrologer association and one from Kingdom of Dawn," Barov handed over two letter papers, "when they arrived, you were in a state of sleep, and the content was a little ... weird."
"Weird?"
Roland first spread out parchment paper with constellation pattern.
The letter was written by Scattered Star Scholar. The first half of the page is a greeting and thanks for the Astronomical Telescope that -- gave to the Star Watching Station. It is a matter of course that they are grateful.
A trace of "World Extermination Star" was actually found in the starry sky?
A fixed star with red light flashing?
Roland thought of synchronous orbit the first time.
Judging by his poor astronomical knowledge, only objects moving in synchronous orbits can remain relatively stationary with the planet.
But if Red Moon appears in this orbit, impossible will not affect the planet itself, and the observation results also show that its volume should be extremely small.
So Red Moon is not a natural celestial body, but an artificial satellite?
Roland vetoed this speculation after thinking for a while, how could it be "fallen into the world" if it was a satellite? According to Agatha, at the moment when Red Moon is in the world, people on the entire continent can see its existence. -- is larger and brighter than the moon. The scarlet light stains the stone walls of Holy City. You can see its outline even during the day.
This is totally unreasonable.
He was silent for a while before putting the stationery aside. "Draw a letter for me and invite astrologer to come to Neverwinter City."
"But last time they rejected you," Barov hesitantly said, "I'm afraid this time ..."
"situation is different. Astrology Association has found the star they want to pursue, and then just stare at the sky then it will be alright." Roland tapped the table and said, "You told them in the letter that Neverwinter City has developed a more Good Astronomical Telescope, but also found some ancient books about World Extermination Star, I believe they will come. "
"Yes."
He spread out a second stationery -- or a note, and like usual secret letters, the message delivered by the flying messenger is always very concise.
"Lord of Dawn crashed, the eldest son Anpei Moore succeeded."
"He ordered the clearing of Church's believers, the cessation of commercial routes with Holy City, and the hunt for witch."
"Affected by this, there has been a rebellion in the border area and our caravans have also been affected."
"The original plan may need to be temporarily suspended."
Roland frowned, Barov didn't know what Church did in Dawn, and felt that it was normal to feel embarrassed. After the evacuation of -- Isabella and others, it was sooner or later that Lord of Dawn died without lethargy, but he did not It was expected that Anpei would have such a large hatred for Church, and even witch also hated it.
In these several policies, the followers of the Qing Dynasty said that unilaterally prohibiting trade was a cut off from the border feudal lord. There must be a shadow of Church's behind the rebellion, and the witch was completely contrary to their own interests.
This impulse order is unlikely to be the idea of 3 Great Families. It can only be said that new King has been stunned by hatred and wants to avenge his father.
He originally thought Dawn would be a potential ally, but he was disappointed.
"Send a formal diplomatic letter," Roland slowly said, "First congratulate him on his crown as king, and then warn him not to do so. -- Pure One is not equivalent to witch. Greycastle has formed a formal witch organization. They consider their enemies to be Greycastle. "
"Uh ... Your Majesty," Barov wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Are you sure you want to write this?"
"Any questions?"
"The other party won't take it seriously, and it may be a threat to you."
Roland is naturally clear. Sometimes even the vassal of the local feudal lord will not accept the order of King, let alone intervene in foreign affairs. But times have changed. If the other party doesn't understand, he doesn't mind what Church is really diplomacy.
"This is a threat in itself," he replied nakedly. "If Anpei Moore insists on going Holy City next year, by the way, let Dawn change to a King. -- One is willing to stand on the side of Greycastle and work against War of Divine Will. People, such as Andrea of Quinn Family is good.
The new era of diplomacy will be based on steel guns. What is not available at the negotiating table depends on the military. Not to mention interfering in the internal affairs of other countries, replacement of heirs, support of the opposition, and direct deployment of troops are all common methods. Until Red Moon comes, Roland does not want other kingdoms to pull him on the hind legs.
Therefore, the core content of the entire diplomatic letter is "don't presume."
"I ... got it," a complex look emerged from Barov Mons's eyes, with surprise, excitement, and unbelievable awe ... He bent down deeply, "I will communicate your will Dawn King. "
