The strongest lord system

Chapter 524 The Prelude to the War

"What do you mean! We have already agreed to your excessive demands!" Hansen gritted his teeth and roared angrily.

However, Selena looked at Allen quietly.

Allen didn't speak immediately, but just opened the desk drawer and took out a document from it, and looked through it.

"You also know that we are about to go to war in Stormwind City, so it is impossible to gather 5000 million catties of food for you at this time. But... this war should end within half a month, and I will continue to report to you Pay for the 5000 million catties of grain. However, I also consider that you are in urgent need of food now, and there are almost 500 million catties of grain in our Stormwind City inventory that can be given to you first."

Selena thought, although 500 million catties is not a lot, it can at least support the Snowy Empire for a period of time.

"Facing hundreds of thousands of enemies, do you really think you can end the battle within half a month?" Hansen said aloud.

half a month?
Solve more than [-] enemies?

If fighting could be so easy, their Frost City would not be besieged until now.

"After half a month, there will only be two results on this land. Either the city will be littered with corpses, or Stormwind City will disappear from now on." Allen said, with a smile on his face: "I think you should I don't want it to be the second result."

Selena looked at Allen and said, "Okay. However, I need to leave now with food. You said it before, and if it's later, we won't be able to leave if we want to."

Allen spread his hands: "There is no problem at all. I can order to transport 500 million catties of grain to the port of Haiyu City by water right now. Your ship may be able to set off for the return journey tomorrow."

Speaking of this, Allen narrowed his eyes; "But I can't let you take 500 million catties of grain for nothing. After all, you haven't even given me anything now. So...you need to leave a I rest assured that the hostage who handed over 500 million catties of food is in our Stormwind City."

With that said, Allen's eyes fell on Selena.

Obviously, as the snowy empire here, the only one who is qualified to stay at this time is the princess of the snowy empire.

"I... I will stay. I am the son of the Grand Duke of the Snow Region Empire. I am also a nobleman and a knight. I can stay as a hostage." Hansen shouted anxiously.

"This Hansen knight. I think you should understand what I just said. What I want is someone who I think I can rest assured. I have already wasted a lot of time on you, don't waste more time Alright." Allen said, frowning.

"I am willing to stay. I will be a hostage. Please order the delivery of food immediately." Selina said.

"Princess..." Hansen looked at his princess anxiously.

"Hansen. I now appoint you as my agent with full powers. You have full powers to command the fleet. Please return quickly with food. The people and soldiers of the empire are waiting for these rescuers." Selina's pale face There was a trace of firmness in it.

Hansen clenched his fists, his palms had been pierced by nails, and blood dripped onto the ground.

bump

Hansen half-kneeled on the ground, saluted Selena and said, "Your Highness, I will definitely bring the food back. You...you must wait for me to come back."

"When you come back, don't forget to bring the things I said before, so that I can send you the food you want when the time comes." Allen said with a smile.

Hansen stood up, and he walked in front of Allen step by step. Xue Ye didn't stop him this time, because she didn't feel the murderous aura from the other party.

"I, Hansen, is asking for help for the first time. I hope you can win this battle that belongs to your Stormwind City. If... If you lose, I ask you to send Her Royal Highness to leave, please." Hansen once again Kneeling down, this time he was on both knees, his forehead hit the floor.

Allen looked at the knight in front of him, and for some reason he saw many figures from him, Ke Luo?Karl?Maybe they are the so-called "knights" in this world.

"Although what you said will definitely not happen. But I still promise you that if it really comes to the end, I will not drag your Highness Princess to die together." Allen said lightly.

"Thank you." Hansen thanked him sincerely.

…………

Night falls.

But at this time, the port of Mosao Lake in Stormwind City is brightly lit, and wooden boats full of things are transporting things.

"Okay. This is the last fleet. The 500 million catties of grain I promised you has all been shipped on board. As long as you hold this letter, Ke Luo in Haiyu City will let you leave." Allen handed Hansen a prepared letter.

After Hansen received the letter, he turned his head and looked at Princess Selena next to him: "Your Highness, take care."

Selena looked at the ships containing food, and she silently took out a pendant and handed it to Hansen: "This thing was given to me by my father when I was a child. To prevent accidents, put this pendant when you go back Give me something, father, I believe father will believe you. Be careful all the way."

"Yes." Hansen clenched the pendant in his hand, and he walked towards the last boat. When he stood on the boat and the boat slowly drove out, he turned his head and looked at the distance He said silently in his heart: Your Royal Highness, I will definitely come back to pick you up.

The ship drifted away.

"My lord, all of our work has been done. According to the instructions issued by the City Lord's Mansion, we should all withdraw to the city." A person in charge of the port walked over cautiously and said.

Allen nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Move back all the useful things on the port."

"Yes."

The evening wind blows on the lake, reflecting the moonlight in the sky.

"It's time for us to go back." Allen looked at Selena, who had been staring into the distance; "Don't worry, in Stormwind City, I will arrange someone to take care of you. I will meet your needs."

"Thank you, I just want to quietly watch the night view here." Selena said, squatting down and wrapping her arms around her knees.

Allen looked at this film and said that there is no special night scene; "Is this beautiful?"

"I have lived in the Snowy Empire since I was a child. In my eyes, it has always been white, white snow, white city walls, white lakes, even my hair is white, and even the air is white to me. White." Selena said quietly: "This time, the scenery along the way is unfamiliar to me. But because of the responsibility on my body, I have no chance to stop at all. But... now It's easy, at least I've done what I can."

Allen didn't speak but just looked at the quiet woman.

Time passed bit by bit, Allen turned around and took a step.

"Xue Ye. If she wants to go back later, please be responsible for taking her back and leave it to Emily." Allen said softly.

"Yes." Xue Ye nodded, she hesitated and said, "Alan, why did you agree to their business? You should know that our current situation in Stormwind City is not very good."

"Yes. The situation in our Stormwind City is indeed not good, but I believe we can persevere, so the development of our Stormwind City cannot be stopped, and I am very interested in what they can provide." Allen said, the figure has slowly into the night.

Xue Ye didn't say anything more, but slowly returned to Xue Ye's side.

"Miss Xue Ye, are you afraid of living here?" Selena, who had been quiet all this time, suddenly said.

Xue Ye glanced at Selena: "Afraid? What are you afraid of?"

"You know. When I was in the Snowy Empire, I heard that there were hundreds of thousands of troops from the Solomon Empire fighting on our border. I was very scared. I was afraid that they would rush over, I was afraid that we would slaughter our people, I I am very afraid that I will lose everything. I am afraid...but I can't show it, but...I am really helpless. And now you have to face more than [-] enemies, aren't you afraid." Celine Na's eyes had a confused look.

"Well... I didn't feel scared. Because standing in front of me is a legendary man. His shoulders are not very broad, but he can carry the sky. His steps are not very big, but he can always rush ahead of us. He The fist looks very weak, but it can protect us." Xue Ye looked at the starry sky, and a smile appeared on her face: "Actually, before you came, more than 1 people left in our Stormwind City. Afraid to leave. But I'm sure they will regret it."

Selena was quiet for a while: "Actually, I'm quite curious about your Stormwind City. I really want to know what kind of place it is where elves, humans, dwarves, goblins, and even orcs can live together."

"If I have time, I can show you around. This place may not have the snowy scenery of your Snowy Empire, but it has a charm that is not found in other places on the mainland." Xue Ye showed a smile on his face: "Wait a minute I Let me introduce you to a friend, her name is Emily, she is a very good human girl. She will take care of your diet and daily life, I believe you will become good friends with her."

"Hmm. Thanks."

…………

The next morning the sun came down to Stormwind with bad news.

"Report. A large number of orcs and trolls have appeared in the mountains to the west, and they have camped at the exit of the path to the west."

"Report. According to the investigation of the hippogryph knights we sent out, a large number of elf troops have appeared in the northeast, and they are still a day away from us."

"Report! The army of the Osim Empire has appeared to our northwest, and has temporarily stopped advancing."

Allen stood on the high platform and looked at Stormwind City in front of him.

"The real war has begun!"
