Warhammer Seal

Chapter 90 Peace Treaty
"Huh? The emperor..."

Hearing this, Marcus was startled from deep thinking, and he was so scared that he was sweating profusely.

Although he was completely victorious in the battle against the Taraxlan lizardmen, Marcus lost the prop that represented the status of the hunter marshal given to him by the emperor himself.

Amber Bow.

A divine bow blessed by the amber mage was lost not long ago. It was given to him by Emperor Karl himself, but now he can't bring it with him.

So when I heard the word "emperor", I couldn't help but tremble.

Well, Marcus's unsteady mind, coupled with Wende's talent for bragging.

After directly figuring out the decree of the former Elector of Sylvania that he had obtained before, he began to open his eyes and talk nonsense.

"The emperor thanked the Marshal Hunter for his achievements in Lustria. The gold and herbs you brought back to the empire have provided the empire with considerable wealth. Now the emperor orders you to make a targeted strike against the pirates on the Vampire Coast as much as possible to serve the empire. Escort of long-distance ships!"

This is also the idea of ​​​​breaking the Hunter Marshal Expeditionary Army.

If they go south to eliminate the Taraxlan lizardmen, then the expeditionary force will face the blue viper orcs in the west, the awakened vampire pirates in the east, the ratmen of the Plague clan in the south, and the ark raids of the dark elves in the north.

Just at this time, a lizardman messenger came, representing the forces of Taraxlan.

They just failed in the battle with Marshal Hunter and lost a general. In order to implement the plan stably, they must sign a peace agreement with Marcus, for which they are willing to donate 500 gold coins.

If it was in the past, the hunter marshal would definitely not agree, and would kick the lizardman messenger out of the city while laughing.

But today, the emperor's special envoy is here, and he has captured two lizardmen by himself. Whether it is in terms of face or strength, he has to discuss it with the young man named Wende in front of him. .

"Agreed to the peace agreement, you can't go to war with the Lizardmen now, not only will you lose a lot of money, but it will also lead to revenge from the Sons of the Old Ones."

Wen De spoke directly, but it directly hurt Marcus's face.

"Do not agree to the peace treaty!"

He is the supreme commander of the entire Hunter Marshal's expeditionary force, even if Wen De is the emperor, he cannot speak for him.

How could Wende have no countermeasures?

Immediately turned to look at Marcus, looked at his back.

"Speaking of Marshal, did you forget the amber bow that symbolizes your identity in the room?"

The meaning of these words is obvious. Although you Marcus are an imperial marshal, don't forget who gave you this identity.

When the emperor's special envoy speaks with an edict, it is as if the emperor himself is present, and no one with the status of marshal can be tolerated.

Knowing that he was deflated, he was also unable to deny it. He could only follow the "suggestion" of Wende, the emperor's special envoy, and signed a peace treaty with the Taraxlan lizardmen. It was fine, and he got some gold.

At this time, Wende showed his amazing political ability again. This is like Jianghu. Politics is not about fighting and killing, but about people's understanding of the world.

The most important point of worldly sophistication is not to allow others to hate you. The more people hate you, the more difficult it will be for the world, that is, the political path.

No, just after offending the Hunter Marshal Marcus, Wende had to find a way to curry favor with this stubborn, moody Hunter Marshal.

"I found something when I came to the Kara Temple from the Predator Port. It seemed that the blue viper and the green-skinned warlord were playing with a strange bow and arrow, and rewarded it to the best bow and arrow boy."

Wende began to hint that he knew the whereabouts of the Amber Bow, but Marcus hadn't heard it yet.

Forget it, anyway, there are no other people around, so I can speak clearly.

"I found your missing Amber Bow when I came here. It was snatched by those Blue Viper orcs. It should still be in the floating pyramid city."

This news made Marcus very excited. Now he has been worrying about the whereabouts of the longbow, and now he finally knows its whereabouts.

But the floating pyramid has always been the territory of the blue vipers and the green skins, and it is not easy to attack.

"If possible, I hope you can give me some good advice from the emperor's special envoy."

This is exactly Wende's plan. In Lustria, the Plague Clan and the Dark Elves cannot be completely wiped out with the power of the Lizardmen alone.

The Hunter Marshal will also play a very important role in it, and Wind will be the brain of the entire expedition.

"I hereby order the Hunter Marshal Marcus to immediately assemble a group of artillery reinforcements from the empire, and at the same time establish a military alliance with the New World colonists in the north to attack the Blue Viper orcs together."

Wende is not the only one who has the ability to command. After staying in such a position for so long, Marshal Hunter is not a soldier who can only draw a bow.

"What about the vampires in the east? If our entire army attacks, the entire Kara Temple will be exposed to the threat of the Vampire Coast."

"Don't worry about this. The Vampire Coast is currently engaged in rebellion. The vampire pirates between us and the awakened land are not fighting with other vampire pirates. Even if Luther Harken, the legendary vampire pirate, does not It is possible to deal with these rebel forces in a short period of time."

Wende has a plan in mind.

"At the same time, there is no need to worry that these rebel vampire forces will attack us. They will do their best to defend against the vampires who come from the awakened land. It's just that the time is three months. Once it exceeds three months, Luthor Harken will unify the entire vampire coast. , At that time, we will definitely have a battle with the vampires."

"That means we have three months to eliminate those green skins? This is one of the few good news."

Of course Marcus followed Wende's suggestion, but Wende refuted the plan to let Wende join his army.

Just kidding, it is undoubtedly a waste to let a person with rich experience in individual combat enter the army formation.

Moreover, the abilities of Moxi and Datanius could not be brought into full play in the army.

Wende can only use the excuse that he is an officer, and he is best suited for beheading operations behind the enemy's rear.

As for salary. . .

This didn't cost a penny. The Hunter Marshal Expeditionary Army was already a very poor force. If Wende took a few hundred gold coins from here, it might even collapse the entire expeditionary army's economy.

"You have the wisdom of Slann."

After leaving the Kala Temple, Dattanius affirmed Wende's intelligence level, but the latter looked proud.

"I still have the combat ability of a war lizard."
