We are in Terra and there is no book to read.

"Everyone! Don't retreat!"

The Leitanian officers kept scolding, but it had no effect at all.The terrifying sight in front of them made the Leitanian soldiers feel chills in their hearts, and some even peed their pants in fear.It's okay to fight the enemy, but who would risk their lives with a lunatic who doesn't want his life?

"I surrender! I surrender!"

"Forgive me!"

Looking at the army that was already collapsing, David tried to use his Origin Stone skills to fight back personally, but Manfred stopped him.

泰拉1078年，8月15日，下午4点17分。

There were 30 men in the Leitanian Army. Except for Snitzi who was captured, 47 Victoria ballistae and 101 Casimir knights who escaped, all the rest were killed.

The next day, Kazdel gathered all the transport ships and transported 5 troops to the border of Letania. He broke through the eastern defense line of Letania in one fell swoop and planted Kazdel's flag on the eastern border of Letania. on land.

Immediately, the twin queens of Letania sent a message to Kazdaele through the messengers from all nations in Lateran, expressing their willingness to negotiate peace.

Chapter 161 Change Your Attitude

In the desert on the border of Yan Kingdom, a simple camp that could accommodate a hundred people was set up here.Heavily armed soldiers walked through it, but there were no signs, attracting the attention of many desert refugees.

"Boss, what are we doing here?"

A soldier patted the person next to him, "We won't stay at Yumen, nor go to Longmen to help, and we'll just be stuck in the desert like this?"

"Ahem, don't talk about it!"

He lowered his head and clasped his fists, saluting the visitor. The soldier on the side glanced at him and quickly followed suit.

"General!"

"Ah."

Zuo Xuanliao responded, stretched out his hand to sweep open the curtain of the big tent, and said to the people on the side: "Master, please."

The old man, who had similar appearance to Wei Yanwu, strode in and took the initiative to sit down on the side.

"General Zuo, you don't need to be polite. You are the chief officer in this military camp."

"Yes."

Seeing Zuo Xuanliao sitting down, Taifu didn't waste any time and asked directly: "What do you think of the situation in Kazdel these days?"

"Faced with an enemy twice as large as ourselves, there was not a single deserter. If we judge it from the perspective of a warrior, I would recognize this group of people."

"……Um."

After pondering for a moment, the Tutor nodded slightly, "After this battle, we need to readjust our diplomatic posture with Kazdaele. General Zuo, how is the situation at Longmen?"

"This is a letter from Longmen. I have not touched it. I would like to ask the master to open it personally."

Zuo Xuanliao took out a letter and handed it to the old man. He opened it and looked at it carefully.

"General Zuo, I have to ask you to stay here for a few more days."

.........

Speaker of the Ursus Empire Parliament, Witte.

As a high-ranking official with less than one person and more than ten thousand people, he has recently been ranked as one of the top two.

The emperor has recently recruited many military nobles as members of his faction, which dissatisfied the elders who originally came to power based on their strengths in developing the economy.As Fyodor's confidant and steward, he had to find ways to reconcile the conflicts between the parties.

As for the Longmen side, it doesn't mean that it's just handed over to the Duke of Cosiche.He had to lead the diplomatic department to deal with Yan Guo, mediate the pressure between the two countries, and avoid real anger.

At the same time, war suddenly broke out between Laitania and Kazdaele, and Witt had to allocate a little more of his already full 15-hour working time to take a look at the battle of Laika.

If this is how it continues, then it's actually not bad.Unexpectedly, after Letania lost the first battle, she was unwilling to give in and wanted to fight again, and even introduced the troops of Victoria and Casimir!

Although he used the guise of being a volunteer soldier, Witte could not ignore the political issues behind it.And if any country loses, the changes in the situation will be troublesome.

In this case, Kazdel was okay and would not cause any international impact. At the last moment, Ursus made some moves and the matter was over, and Ursus had no losses.

And if Letania loses in this second battle, the situation will change greatly. Ursus will have to adjust its strategy and layout of other members accordingly, which will be a big job.

But just yesterday, news came that Letania was defeated.

Witte almost fainted, and his daily working hours were directly increased to 17 hours.

"Mr. Witte, Your Majesty will be here soon."

"Okay okay."

Werther's breathing was somewhat rapid, he stopped suddenly, and then walked into a small conference room in the palace.This is Feodor's private conference room, and the only people who can come here are His Majesty's close ministers.

As soon as he sat down, the guards outside shouted loudly: "Your Majesty is here!"

People in the room quickly stood up and saluted.

"Sit down, I called you here today because of Kazdaele's matter."

Fyodor sat down on the main seat, "Kazdale defeated Letania and caused major trauma to them. I think it's time to re-evaluate Kazdale."

He reached out and motioned to a middle-aged man in military uniform. This was the person with the highest level of military expertise among his close ministers.

"Kutuzov, tell me, from a military point of view."

"As your majesty."

Kutuzov tidied it up a bit.

"Kazdel is now capable of repelling 30 people from the Leitanian United Army in one go, which shows that their military strength has increased a lot in the past few years. I have also collected a lot of information about Saka recently. Here’s the information.”

"Oh? Do you have any conclusions?"

Fyodor asked.

"If there is friction between Kazdaele and us, in this case, I think our enemy is not Kazdaele, but their royal court."

Kutuzov said: "The power of Origin Stone skills can only be determined by nature, and there are very few and extremely difficult ways to strengthen it. Therefore, looking at the overall situation of Kazdaele, they are very powerful, but this power is closely related to population, education, and industry. , technology and other aspects, it is deformed, extremely one-sided and out of touch with the vast majority of the Sakaz people."

"Although I didn't see the Royal Court take action this time, I found some descriptions from the historical archives. Without using warships, I calculated to bulldoze Kazdel's army, and the two armies would definitely win. To deal with the Royal Court, first build two We can use one group army to consume them, and then let His Majesty's internal guards take action, and victory will not be a problem. If we need to be more secure, we can also use three group armies to consume the royal court."

Fyodor did not speak, but looked at Werther, and he spoke quickly.

"Your Majesty, General Kutuzov's conclusion is correct. The Royal Court will perish as long as it is destroyed once, and it is not difficult to reorganize several armies."

A person's extreme strength will only bring great prestige, but if this person has a long life, it will become a phenomenon.This phenomenon will affect the country bit by bit, causing the entire country to be built around him.

Kazdel and Letania are actually the same. They were kidnapped by individuals' extreme force, so they never paid attention to the systematic construction of the country.But Kazdel has begun to change, while Letania remains where she is.

"But the possibility of friction with Kazdaele, I think, is still very slim."

Witte glanced at several researchers engaged in demon research and said: "Kazdale needs to export source stones, and we import source stones. Ursus and Kazdale are in a reciprocal state, which is very stable."

"Yeah, but they are still strengthening themselves after all."

Feodor thought for a while and said: "We have to adjust our diplomatic attitude with Kazdaele. Witte, please intervene in the peace negotiations between Leitania and Kazdaele. In addition to not letting Kazdaele obtain Territory and other benefits should be directed toward Kazdaele as much as possible to help them gain more."

"clear."

Witte nodded. He knew very well that once Kazdaele acquired the land of Letania, the geopolitical environment around Ursus would change dramatically, and it would also weaken Kazdael's influence on the Ursus market. dependence.

Chapter 162 Preparing for Negotiations

A sharp sound pierced the sky in Kazdare again, and then there was a loud explosion.But it was not a cannonball. It exploded in the sky, and the dazzling flames formed a beautiful scene in the night sky.

In order to celebrate the victory over Letania, Teresica announced a celebration for the whole Kazdaele, and every household distributed extra food to relax the tense spirit during this period.

Adult men and women can choose between a small bottle of beer and a steak, while boys and girls can choose between a piece of cake, a piece of fruit and a steak.Infants and young children also participate, but some extra animal milk is given to the mother.

In Kazdel's palace, a celebration banquet was also going on. Many people drank some drinks, and they smiled and patted Alfred on the shoulder.

"Well done! Alfred."

"Well, the fireworks are really beautiful."

Everyone around him was laughing, but Alfred himself didn't have much smile on his face, as if he had nothing to do with all this.

His Majesty asked him to develop an Originium propellant that does not explode instantly and produce huge recoil, but burns slowly to continuously provide kinetic energy.Over the years, he spent countless funds, but what he finally produced was the fireworks in front of him that caused a flame reaction through metal powder.

Oh, by the way, fireworks were not what Alfred named them, but the Yan Kingdom had such a thing a long time ago to add to the atmosphere during festivals.

In short, it is equivalent to that he has accomplished nothing in the past few years.

"Don't be burdened. Experimenting without theoretical support is like exploring the wilderness without a compass. It's natural to get lost."

Teresica comforted him a few words, but there was still a lot of gloom in Alfred's eyes, which he tried to hide but would reveal inadvertently.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your tolerance."

Teresica nodded and did not talk about this matter again, but asked about other things.

"Is there any progress on the 10mm cannon?"

"Yes, we tried to encrypt the number of rifling distributions."

Talking about this, Alfred's mood improved a lot, "Your Majesty, the latest data is 63 meters."

"Very good, keep improving."

Teresica actually already knew, and she just took the opportunity to encourage her by saying it.

He was wandering around with a wine glass full of juice when the succubus approached him.

"Your Majesty, a messenger from Lateran has arrived. It's a letter from Letania."

"Go, go to the meeting hall."

Teresica and the Banshee walked into the meeting hall together, where the Military Council and the Royal Courts had already gathered.

He ignored the salutes of these people and asked directly: "What does the letter say?"

"Your Majesty, Letania wants to hold peace talks with us in seven days. It will be held in the mobile city of Vesselheim near the east. They will be attended by the two queens and the elector."

"can."

After hearing the words of the Scavenger King, Teresica nodded, and then asked: "Did Victoria and Casimir do anything?"

"No. It seems that this has never happened in Victoria. There are no relevant reports. As for Casimir, they only briefly talked about the volunteers."

The leader of the Transformers said: "But one thing is strange. Last time Casimir lost tens of thousands of knights, and the knights almost rioted. If they hadn't been armed and controlled in advance, it would have been troublesome. But this time Casimir officially just Just to put it casually, there are no security incidents in the Grand Knight Territory."

"Have the retinue and the war knights reached an agreement of interest?"

Teresica guessed, but Casimir and Kazdel were not next to each other, so it didn't matter.

"What is the attitude of the Casimir prisoner... Snitz, in prison? Weak or tough?"

"Your Majesty, he has not said a word since he was captured. He will eat if we give him food. If we don't give him, he will not eat."

Someone from the military committee suggested: "Your Majesty, if you want to get something from him, it would be better to hand someone like this directly to the Pardoner."

When the leader of the Pardoner heard this, he became slightly interested. After all, this was a senior general with rich combat experience. Searching his memory might actually bring out something good.

"Don't worry. Didn't Ms. Russell say she wants to redeem him? It's not too late to see what her offer is before making a decision. What I'm more concerned about now is that our troops are currently stationed in eastern Leitania. Is there any reaction from the people around you?”

Teresica counted the names, "Latlan, Syracuse, Ursus, is there any movement?"

"Your Majesty, Rutland has announced that he will not participate in witnessing the signing of the agreement between Kazdare and Leitania."

The banshee said: "However, Witte, the Speaker of the Imperial Parliament of Ursus, will visit Letania in seven days."

Teresica was a little surprised. This time, Kazdel relied entirely on his own strength to bring Letania to the negotiating table. What was he doing?

After speculating aimlessly for a while, Teresica put it aside and said, "Say something useful."

He looked at the shapeshifter and then at the people in the technical department, "We're going to negotiate. Please give me a form and write down clearly what we need and what can be scraped off Letania. Can’t miss it!”

"That's natural. Your Majesty, please rest assured."

There was a burst of laughter in the meeting hall.

.........

On August 8, a transport ship calibrated to its best condition stopped at the ship berth in Kazdale.The royal guards and various entourages who had been prepared long ago began to board the ship. They will accompany Teresica, as well as the Banshee and the Scavenger King, to Letania to participate in negotiations.

In addition to them, Teresica will join a division that has been prepared on the border of Leitania and head to Vesselheim together.

Because the Origin Stone that was supposed to be provided to Ursus and the Yan Kingdom was delivered ahead of schedule during the war, Kazdel now has a lot of free transport ships and has the ability to deploy a small number of troops remotely in a short period of time.

This is why Kazdel dared to line up 5 people and rush into eastern Leitania.
