Chapter 546 Negotiation (4)

I don’t know whether it was within Ella’s expectation or unexpectedly, but despite the harsh conditions, Bjorn came to the bottom of the city wall early the next morning. There were hundreds of people who came with Bjorn.

guards, as well as bound knights and retinues.

According to Ella's estimation, Bjorn's army rations will be exhausted by tomorrow at the latest. However, Bjorn's face does not show any signs of despair, but instead looks majestic. This makes Ella a little uneasy.

John has fought his last battle and started to attack the city, so this day will probably be very difficult.

So she shouted to Bjorn on the city wall: "Bjorn! I didn't say you could bring so many people! If you want to negotiate, go into the city alone!"

"Okay. They will wait outside first." Bjorn said, "I will come in alone. Open the city gate quickly."

Seeing that Bjorn agreed so readily, Ella became even more uneasy. She asked the soldiers around her in a low voice:

"Are the Archers of Glahid ready?"

"Back to the King of Sweden, it is ready and can shoot at any time. Hundreds of archers should be enough to suppress Bjorn and prevent him from casting large-scale magic."

"Where's the planned trap? Has it been completed?"

"It's done. If they want to use ladders to climb the city wall, they will fall directly into the pit designed for Tesosomok. If they want to pour in directly from the city gate, without our guidance, they will also fall into the pit designed for Izko.

In the trap designed by Atel."

"Where's the giant crossbow? Has it been made?"

"It's finished and has been put up on the city wall. It can definitely penetrate Chimalpopoka's defense!"

Ella felt relieved. This was a trap she designed to stop Tesosomok, Chimalpopoka, Izcoatl, and Bjorn. Now that Chimalpopoka is dead, Teso

Sosomok was captured, so there was no reason why he couldn't stop the remaining two people.

The city gate opened. Bjorn walked in through the city gate calmly, and no movement was seen among the soldiers behind him until the city gate closed again.

"I pay attention to Bjorn's actions, and your Majesty, please keep your spirits up at all times." On the way to the scheduled negotiation location, Amy kept whispering in Ella's ear, "As soon as I notice anything strange about Bjorn,

Squeeze my hand immediately, and I will throw a fireball outside as a signal. Your Majesty has a contract with the Dragon Clan, so you don’t have to be afraid of ordinary wounds. I will also use the God of Love to protect Bjorn’s actions. Your Majesty just needs to pay attention.

Just don't let Bjorn take him hostage. Glahid is ambushing you outside with thousands of soldiers. As long as His Majesty is not caught, Bjorn will not be able to escape."

"Gu——! It feels like I am the weaker party in the negotiation!"

"It can't be helped. Bjorn knows the details about His Majesty and I. Your Majesty himself doesn't know magic, so he is in such trouble...Bjorn, please give us the weapon in your hand first!"

After struggling for a while, the two sides finally sat down at the negotiating table. There was only one person on Bjorn's side, and he had been disarmed. On Ella's side, a large number of pirates gathered, each and every one of them fiercely.

Staring at Bjorn. This was specially arranged by Ella. The purpose was to overwhelm Bjorn in terms of momentum.

Milk and bread are placed on the negotiating table.

"Bjorn, I didn't expect you to come to negotiate after I offered such conditions."

As soon as she opened her mouth, Ella tried to suppress Bjorn's arrogance. She pushed the milk and bread in front of Bjorn and continued: "You must be hungry. There is bread and milk here, you can eat as you like.

We have as much as we want here.”

Bjorn glanced at the bread and did not move, but replied:

"Who makes some people so fragile and timid? Negotiating outside the city is really difficult for her. Negotiating here is much fairer."

"Thank you for taking care of me. Let's not talk about this. Let's eat some bread first." Ella pushed the bread closer to Bjorn. "Although it is not a delicacy, the one you sent yesterday

The envoys gorged themselves on food under the city wall."

"I tied them up and whipped them." Bjorn replied calmly, "We are not beggars and do not accept charity from our enemies. We are pirates. If we want something, we will grab it ourselves. You give it to us.

This bread and milk will make them covet the city of Winchester."

A confrontation ended. Ella tried to get Bjorn to admit that he was in danger of running out of food, and Bjorn's answer was to tell Ella that they would storm Winchester if necessary.

Ella frowned.

"Now that you are so aware, what do you want to negotiate this time?"

"I captured a few English knights. You also saw them, just below the city." Bjorn said, "As far as I know, they are very important people to England. I give you a chance, you can start

Redeem them with certain conditions."

"It's just a few soldiers on horseback, right?" Ella shrugged, "You can change it if you want. We happen to have hundreds of Aztlan prisoners here, wasting our food in vain. Change one by one,

How many are there on your side?"

"King of Sweden, this is a kind reminder to you. Your subordinates are all from the Pirate Kingdom. I don't want to fight to the death with my own people. In order to prevent the situation from developing to an irreversible level, you'd better be more serious with me.

Negotiate." Bjorn stared at Ella, "I don't need the Aztlan people. What I want is a ransom, but it's not gold coins, but food and grass. You use fifteen days of food and grass to redeem these knights from us.

Then we both sign an armistice. We return to Scotland and both parties give up. These are my conditions."

"You want food and grass? Do you want to withdraw?" Ella deliberately made herself laugh, "Bjorn, if you want to do business, the most important thing is that the price is fair. You don't really think I need these knights to come back, do you?"

"It may be a good thing for you that these knights don't come back, so that you have a chance to control England. But if you don't want these knights, these men of mine will kill them under the city wall in front of all the Winchesters."

Kill." Bjorn stared at Ella, "All the Winchesters know that I came to the city to negotiate, alone and full of sincerity. If those knights die like this, many English people will kill them.

The finger is pointed at you. If you have a plan to control England, it will soon go bankrupt. If you have no plan to control England, your alliance with England will also be shaken."

Ella was stunned. She asked Bjorn to come to the city to negotiate, firstly to ensure her own safety, and secondly, if Bjorn agreed, he would show his cowardice. She never thought that this would be used by Bjorn.

, becoming a bargaining chip for him to threaten himself.

"After this, my men will be desperate and will attack the city by force. Although they may not be able to capture it, we will definitely make you pay the price with blood. Most of the soldiers guarding Winchester now are from Sweden, for a city that is no longer reliable.

Allowing one's own subordinates to die as an ally is a choice only a fool would make."

Bjorn suddenly slammed the table, startling Ella.

"Give me the food and grass, exchange the knights, and then sign an armistice agreement with me. This will not only preserve your allies, but also reduce the casualties of your soldiers. This is your best choice at the moment. As for what will happen to England in the future, then

It’s something that the next King of England, or you should consider after becoming the next Queen of England, isn’t it?”
