As time passed day by day, things seemed to calm down.
"Hmph, I think they have no ability at all, they are just lucky. We have been here for so long, and they haven't done anything." Some nobles looked in Jia Siwei's direction, full of jealousy and disgust.
"I'm afraid you can't tell our thoughts at all. After all, we are businessmen. I'm afraid they thought we would protect them here." A group of nobles laughed loudly, without any intention of hiding it.
They even want Jia Siwei to see it and know what they think.
Anyway, in their opinion, Earl Martha's genius idea was the same as their own inability to solve Jia Siwei's problem.
Indeed, because there was no movement from Jia Siwei for such a long time, they couldn't help but think so. Even Earl Martha, who was wary at first, no longer cared.
I couldn't think of a way before, how could I find a way now? Businessmen are businessmen, and I looked down upon them too highly before.
Sure enough, these guys are very good at making money, and they are not good at fighting. There are also many people from Earth in the kingdom, and they are all very confident and arrogant, but in fact their abilities are just that.
Without territory, they can't do most things well.
Thinking of their territorial capabilities, Earl Martha inevitably felt a little jealous.
My family has not obtained territory for such a long time, but those guys obtained the territory immediately after they came. God has so favored this race, why don't I have such good luck?
On the fourth day after they were stationed, an army finally approached slowly from the opposite side.
During this period, border conflicts continued to break out and intensified.
The people's voices are very loud, either to take back the territory or to defend against foreign enemies. In short, the propaganda on both sides is similar. Anyway, the opposite side is wrong, the opposite side is the devil and the enemy.
After such a period of brewing, as well as the hatred left behind by the winter war, everyone was agitated one after another.
Seeing that a full-scale war is about to break out, troops in some areas have already deployed, ready to take action at any time.
The fighting in the north is more intense in winter, so the outbreak is the fastest now. The army from the Blue Sand Kingdom slowly moved towards this side, and then slowly slowed down.
Because they had also detected the situation ahead, the initial strength of the troops seemed to be a bit excessive.
"Protect the commander." Suddenly, the guards around him shouted loudly.
Gu Luo raised his head and saw an eagle with a mechanism in the sky flying over quickly, and then landed in front of the army. A man above stepped down, and then saluted gracefully, making a gesture of negotiation.
"Let him come over." Gu Luo pushed away the guard next to him. He could feel that the person in front of him was not strong.
After all, I am a silver-level knight. The person in front of me is only a black-iron level, and the machine flying eagle is also a black-iron level. The difference between them is so big that it is difficult to make up for it by any means.
"Hello, Commander, I am Corra, scribe to Count Jasway."
"I am Gu Luo, the commander of this army. Do you have anything to say?"
The other party represented a count. Although they looked down upon him, he was still the role model set by the other party. Gu Luo did not dare to look down upon him at all, and he still had to observe proper etiquette.
Gu Shen
It happened that the army stopped advancing to let everyone take a rest to avoid being too exhausted.
"My lord brings his greetings. We are undoubtedly at war with you. We are prepared to be neutral in this war."
"Hmph, neutrality. Last time you won such a large territory, do you actually want to be neutral this time?"
Korra said with a smile: "Before, it was just that the kingdom wanted to find a representative, and we just happened to meet him. But as you know the origin of our Earl, he is now very ostracized in the country."
"So in this war, we only need to protect the territory. We don't want to make meritorious deeds or suffer losses."
"If you don't want to, just don't want to. How can I trust you?"
Originally, Gu Luo wanted to just fight through, but suddenly he thought that if the opponent really retreated, his pressure would be reduced a lot. If so, wouldn't his own force be stronger than the opponent's.
Although I can’t believe it, let’s listen to what they have to say.
Korra said directly: "We can show our sincerity. Our territory has three layers of defense. We will abandon the first layer directly. You can tear down the city wall and we will not stop it."
Cut off an arm? Although there are many idiotic things done by nobles, this kind of thing is really rare.
Especially in a war like this, by making such a decision, is it because you think you won't die quickly enough?
"We really just want to keep our own territory. I believe you won't care about such a remote place. If you insist on fighting, you will be the one to lose. We can retreat at any time."
Korra pointed to the rear and said: "As long as we are willing, we can take refuge in the Alchemy Kingdom behind us. Their strength will not be worse than the Blue Sand Kingdom. At that time, you will also lose a layer of barrier."
Introducing a new kingdom is indeed not an easy task.
Although there used to be a forest and a mountainous area, if an alchemical kingdom really fell here, it would not be impossible.
In this world, although technological power cannot be used, alchemy puppets can.
Thinking of this, Gu Luo began to think in his heart. After a long time, Gu Luo said: "I have to see your sincerity, and then I will test it myself. If what you say is true, I can make the decision to let you go.
."
Korra smiled and nodded: "Then we are waiting for your arrival."
Her mission was finally completed. Korra was very dissatisfied when Jia Siwei found her.
But Jia Siwei has given herself too much. As long as she succeeds this time, she will be able to obtain the privilege of leading an army by herself after she returns, and will also report her name directly to the great lord.
Although Korra is a native, it is precisely because of this that Korra is more in awe of the great lord.
If he can be recognized, it is not impossible for him to reach the level of Jia Siwei in the future. In the eyes of these natives, people from the earth will not perform as well as they do after losing their territory.
Maybe they know some weird things, but they are not familiar with the local area.
Not to mention, what kind of people from this world don’t know some of those weird knowledge? Who doesn’t have a unique skill or two?
