Above the Seven Towers

Zhang Honghun followed Cole back to the banquet hall. Cole seemed to return easily to the crowd. But Zhang Hong himself hid in the corner of the banquet hall. He put his hands on the table and covered his face, trying to calm down the chaotic thoughts.

Those two teleportation props, he finally had to put down the storage ring. Although Zhang Hong is not good at strategizing, he is also very clear that the other party has already squeezed his life in his hands. Cole said just now that he was just trying to get him to cooperate well. The possibility will be much greater, and the other party will get more benefits later. If the opponent does not take into account his interests and is forced to force him, he can only admonish him.

Zhang Hong can be sure that once the matter of killing Hong Lifeng is real, he will be finished. For thousands of reasons, he couldn't justify the incident. He may become the first Chinese to be sentenced in a different world. Maybe he will not die, but the disaster of prison cannot escape.

Even if no tangible evidence is found in the end, as long as he is suspected by everyone, he will also become an untrusted person, and his political life will languish before it has begun.

He thought about it carefully. Unless he sacrificed himself and jumped out to expose the conspiracy, he would only do it according to the other party's request. However, the word sacrifice has never appeared in his dictionary. Is it good for himself even if he exposes all this? Not at all. In this way, the choices he can make are obvious.

Cole is right, as long as you are prepared, no one will find everything. As for the truth, it will become dead without proof.

The large army came to attack, and most of the dead were also locals who joined the guard and the Kingdom soldiers who had been on duty in the Blackwood Pass. Such a loss school can be afforded, and it will not hurt the fundamentals.

He Zhang Hong is just a bystander. Even he can fight in a fake way and save a few people with magic? Maybe he can let the Empire cooperate to stop the chasing army? He has every chance to be a hero again, which is a great capital. The more Zhang Hong thinks, the more he wants to be.

Zhang Hong looked at Xiao Chen who was talking to Count John. The two of them did not know why they changed their swords in the afternoon. They seemed to have a very interesting conversation. Zhang Hong even heard them laugh a few times together. This made him very upset. Xiao Chen and his concubine Luo Ling have always been one of his most hated people. They have been doing all kinds of adventurous stupid things, but they can come back safe and sound every time. Not only their strength is rising, but also their status in the committee. It is getting higher and higher.

The two men are also particularly good at seeing him from a moral commanding point. He has never had a good attitude towards him. Zhang Hong still has a grudge about his disgusting attitude at the first group meeting.

Perhaps it was not a bad thing to bring Xiao Chen to death in the upcoming attack? It's a pity that Luo Ling is not here, but if Xiao Chen is dead, she can't stand it anymore. It seems to be a good ending?

Thinking of this, Zhang Hong suddenly felt that his heartbeat was accelerating, and there was an uncontrollable restlessness all over him. It seemed that this incident made him a little excited?

At the dinner, Xiao Chen and Earl John ’s conversation unexpectedly achieved some results. He succeeded in shifting the focus of the negotiations from whether the Chinese could allow the imperial army to cross the border to another aspect: that is, whether the empire can retreat. The negotiating parties on the second day carried out many discussions based on this point.

Xiao Chen throws out a rather convincing point of view. China and the Iberian Kingdom are different, and they have no grudges with the empire generations, and no prying eyes on the empire's territory. At present, with the Chinese's military power and dominance, it is already the limit to digest the territory from Heimu Pass in the north, to Green Forest City in the south, Suero in the east, and Dwarf Valley in the west. It takes a lot of time to reclaim a large number of villages and towns in this territory and consolidate your own rule.

Therefore, the empire did not need to guard against the Chinese as they did against the Iberian kingdom. Xiao Chen suggested that both parties can sign a non-aggression treaty. The Chinese side promised not to increase troops to Heimuguan, or to send troops to attack the territory of the southwest of the empire, in exchange for the withdrawal of the empire, and to reduce the army in the large camp near Heimuguan to 5,000 People around.

In this way, the empire can put more than 30,000 troops on the battlefield of Guide Fort on the eastern front. This will directly change the current strategic situation on the Eastern Front. If the empire gives up the idea of ​​encroaching on the western part of the kingdom, it may instead achieve results in the eastern part of the kingdom.

On the contrary, if the two sides have been deadlocked here, the daily supply of more than 40,000 troops is a huge burden. If the empire really attacked the city, the loss would be even more difficult to predict. Not retreating from the army would do all harm to the empire without benefit.

Even Earl John had to admit that Xiao Chen's remarks made sense.

Earl John already had a deeper understanding of the power of the Chinese in Heimuguan, because he and his entourage watched a pneumatic gun firing exercise by the Heimuguan Guard Army in the afternoon, although , Shi Hao only arranged four 80mm air guns and eight mortars to participate in the exercise, and did not allow him to see how 120mm air guns showed power, but the four 80mm air guns still left a deep enough impression on him .

The sparks covered the area covering two kilometers before the Blackwood Pass from far to near, while the mortar took care of the dead corner under the city wall.

This combination of modern weapons and magic has never appeared on the stage of this continent, which left Count John very impressed. Shi Hao even allowed him to record a part of the picture with the crystal spar and return it to the emperor and ministers to watch so that they could have a clear and clear understanding of the true strength of the Chinese.

So on the third day, Earl John gave up his intention to continue the negotiations, and said he was ready to leave the Heimu Pass, go back to explain the situation here to His Majesty the Emperor, and report to Xiao Chen his suggestions.

When leaving Heimuguan, Earl John said to Xiao Chen: "Your Excellency Xiao Chen, I must confess that you are a visionary and persuasive person. Regardless of the outcome of this negotiation, I hope to be yours Friend. His Majesty Alfred will also be happy to communicate with people like you who have knowledge and opinions. Hope to see you in the Empire next time. "

Xiao Chen gave a mage ritual: "My Excellency, we hope to resolve disputes through dialogue rather than war. I hope you can bring our intention to pursue peace to His Majesty Alfred."
