When they saw Margaret, with red and swollen eyes, silently walking slowly behind Moriarty, all the Longinus wolf cavalry, including the old werewolf, were very surprised. Because they were already familiar with the female werewolf.
A provocative, fierce, and unyielding personality. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, no wolf rider would believe that one day Margaret would be so obedient and obedient, following her "big enemy" step by step in a pitiful way.
There was even a hint of timidity in his red eyes.
"What did this human do to Miss Margaret?"
For a moment, the same question rang in the heads of every Wolf Cavalry. Even Clausewitz, who was experienced and calm, couldn't help but have thoughts of gossip at this moment.
However, compared to the stunned reaction of everyone in Wolfgang, the reaction of the Doro people was much calmer. Over the past day and night, the human warriors have witnessed Moriarty perform miracles too many times. Even if they now surrender
The proud and bold female werewolf commander is indeed not a big deal.
"I have reached an agreement with Miss Margaret. From now on, Clausewitz will succeed her as the acting commander of the Longinus Squadron. And Margaret herself will temporarily become my commander in a personal capacity.
Followers until the small dispute between Doro's caravan and Wolfgang is resolved." Arriving in front of the old werewolf, Grant and others, Moriarty glanced at them and said slowly.
"Become your follower?" Hearing Moriarty's words, the old werewolf was startled again, and then turned to look at the female werewolf: "Is that so, Miss Margaret?"
"Yes." Margaret nodded slightly, then took a peek at Moriarty's side face, and said, "Due to my mistake, Longinus suffered unnecessary losses, so I am no longer suitable.
I will serve as the commander of the squadron again. I will also become Mr. Moriarty’s temporary follower out of my own free will. Because I lost in the duel just now.”
"Margaret, you don't have to be like this at all..." The old werewolf immediately tried to dissuade him, but was interrupted.
"I'm sorry, Old Crow." The female werewolf shook her head at Clausewitz, and then bowed deeply.
"This..." The old werewolf was momentarily confused by Margaret's actions, and immediately turned around and looked angrily at Moriarty on the other side.
"Being able to always reflect on your words and deeds, while trying your best to make up for every mistake you make. This is an essential quality for a good commander, isn't it?" Ignoring the old werewolf's glare, Moriarty smiled slightly and turned to the woman.
The werewolf nodded.
"you!"
At this time, Clausewitz was really dumbfounded. He could neither accuse the Master of being wrong, but he was also delighted with Margaret's sudden change. Even though he had made plans for the Fourth Plan for Duke Eugen at the Wollong Staff Office,
The old werewolf had never been so entangled in the derivation plan of the hidden war.
But in the end, Clausewitz accepted the "negotiation results" between Moriarty and Margaret and agreed to temporarily take over the position of commander of the Longinus Squadron. As for the female werewolf as a temporary follower of the Master, she also
Strictly defined by the old werewolf within a minimum range, that is: once the Longinus Squadron regains its freedom, Margaret will automatically resume her status as military chief, and the name and responsibility of her mage followers will also be
The end. And Moriarty had no objection to this.
Now that the Doro Caravan and the Wolfgang Longinus Squadron have reached an agreement on the most critical surrender matter, the tense atmosphere on the south bank of Sandos has relaxed. Although most of the Wolf Cavalry are still worried about their captured
The facts were extremely unpleasant, but Margaret and Clausewitz's orders were strictly implemented. Moreover, this time, the Doro Caravan, or Moriarty, also relied on their strength to defeat them openly.
The wolf cavalry forced them to surrender without using any shady tricks. So even if they were dissatisfied, the proud werewolves did not bother to talk nonsense.
About half an hour later, Franklin, who had received the signal from Knight Huber, led five or six of his men who were pretending to escape, and quickly returned to the shore of Sandos. When he saw a squadron of Wolfgang Wolf Cavalry and
The people in his caravan stood together peacefully, and the steward couldn't even believe his eyes. Although he had learned from Huber that Moriarty had successfully forced the enemy to surrender, when they actually faced it, they still felt like
in a dream.
Next, as the plenipotentiary representatives of Doro and Longinus respectively, Franklin and Clausewitz went aside and secretly discussed how to resolve the current dispute between the two parties. As for the other humans and wolf riders, they still stayed where they were.
, waiting for the final "reconciliation plan" to be reached.
"Mr. Moriarty, I have a question to ask you." At this time, the female werewolf suddenly walked up to the mage and asked softly. However, her eyes were still lowered, as if she did not dare to look directly into the other person's eyes.
.
"Excuse me." No more sarcasm, Moriarty looked at Margaret with a smile and said.
"If...of course I'm just assuming...if Old Crow hadn't stopped me before, would you really have used that terrible magic crossbow to kill us all in the Sandos River?" Margaret nibbled.
He raised his lips and asked.
"Yes." Moriarty's answer was very straightforward, without any pretense.
"But didn't you say you 'dare not'?" the female werewolf immediately asked.
"'Don't dare' is out of awe, but it is not the same as fear or timidity." Moriarty's eyebrows straightened slightly, but there was also a hint of gold in his tone: "I don't want to be a useless person.
I am an enemy of Fugang, but this does not mean that I am no longer an enemy of you."
"That's right." Margaret nodded, paused briefly, and then asked: "Then can you tell me what kind of magic you used to deceive us? When I was watching on the north bank before, I really thought Dorothy
The caravan abandoned all its goods and fled south, so I ordered the squadron to cross in pursuit, but unexpectedly fell into your ambush."
"That is a level two spell 'Magic Disguise'." Moriarty replied without any concealment.
"Magic disguise?"
"Yes, through the power of magic, a set of realistic phantoms are created to deceive the vision of others." Seeing the female werewolf looking at him curiously, Moriarty briefly explained: "What you saw is all the members of Doro.
Abandoning the car and running south was the result of the illusion created by this spell."
"But, since the magic disguise is so amazing, why do you still light your truck on fire? Is it just to make the illusion more realistic?" Margaret seemed to be very interested in this wonderful magic, and then asked in detail.
"There are considerations in this regard." Moriarty smiled: "But the main reason is to numb your sense of smell."
"So that's it." When she heard the word "smell", the female werewolf immediately understood. Thinking about it, if there is no strong smell of burnt smoke from the burning wooden cart, even if she relies on magic to disguise her body, those who are ambushing on the river bank will
However, the strong body odor and bloody smell of the human warriors nearby could not be concealed, let alone the wolf cavalry with an amazing sense of smell.
"Mr. Moriarty, are you really just a mage? Rather than a warrior or a professional field commander?" After thinking about everything, the female werewolf seemed to sigh.
"This is a secret."
Moriarty did not answer Margaret's question, but gave it a vague smile. The female werewolf did not ask any more questions.
Finally, after about fifteen minutes of "tense but friendly" conversation, Franklin and Clausewitz finally reached a package agreement on "postwar compensation and reconciliation."
details as follows:
1. A complete ceasefire between the Doro Caravan and the Wolfgang Longinus Squadron will begin immediately;
2. The Longinus Squadron admitted its failure and the fait accompli of surrendering to the Doro Caravan;
3. As a captive, Longinus will pay a ransom to the Doro caravan in exchange for his freedom;
4. Ransom standard: One hundred and thirty Krolod gold shields for each ordinary wolf cavalry (including wargs), which is approximately equivalent to one hundred Bracada gold coins; two thousand gold shields for Acting Squadron Commander Clausewitz;
Margaret, as Moriarty's personal prisoner, is considered separately;
Fifth, Longinus will send five wolf cavalry back to Wolfgang's headquarters to collect ransom and report the situation, and the remaining wolf cavalry will become the temporary retinue of Doro's caravan until they escort the caravan to Ford Fortress;
Sixth, Clausewitz will try his best to persuade Wolfgang's senior management not to accept "business" for the Doro Chamber of Commerce within three years, and at the same time act as a middleman to help Doro and Barbaric Totem reach an understanding; of course, this requires
The fees and consideration will be paid separately by the Doro Chamber of Commerce.
After hearing the contents of this "peace agreement", Moriarty just nodded to Franklin lightly without saying a word.
To be honest, such an agreement is still beneficial to both Doro and Longinus. At least it has found a stable and feasible way to solve the current dilemma of each other. Even if Doro's huge actual losses cannot be solved from the violence,
They may even go up on poles to plead for compensation from the Barbarian Totem in the future just to settle the matter. It looks useless and wronged. But the comparison of strength is such that if the Doro Chamber of Commerce still wants to keep its transportation line in the Hurricane Wasteland in the future
, we have to do this. And this is the sorrow of businessmen.
"Then, what are you going to do with me? How much ransom do you hope to get?" At this time, Margaret glanced at the silent Moriarty and asked in a low voice.
"How much gold shield do you think you are worth?" Upon hearing this question, Moriarty asked with a half-smile.
"this……"
The female werewolf immediately didn't know how to answer. It seemed inappropriate to say more or less.
