Chapter 1065: Pulling each other’s balls (please vote for me)

Gerardor couldn't help but feel nervous after hearing this, and hurriedly asked: "Turning? What turning point?"

Napotulis glanced at him with a half-smile, then shrugged and said, "I'm not Hadou. Even Angel doesn't know about such a major military matter. How could I possibly know?

It's just that the morale in Gard City is very high now. Haddu is well prepared, and you have also seen the defense system outside Haligard City.

If you want to attack by force, you will have to pay a considerable price.

As for the siege, Hadou has already made preparations and has stockpiled a large amount of food and supplies in the city. Even if you siege for a year, he can withstand it.

However, I’m afraid that by that time, your peacekeeping force will be unable to withstand it.”

Gerardor was speechless for a moment.

He has been with Sir Luo for a long time and has learned a lot. He clearly knows that the daily consumption of food and materials for this army of 500,000 is an astronomical figure.

Not only that, but on the other hand, although the logistics department now uses a large number of four-wheeled pure steel carriages manufactured by Flying Eagle Company, which has greatly improved its transportation capacity, the battle line is too long and the road is difficult. Every

Transporting one kilogram of supplies from the rear to the front basically consumes the same amount of supplies.

Adding the two together, the number has reached a prohibitive and terrifying figure.

Naportulis smiled, then took out a thick envelope from his arms and threw it on the table.

Then there was a "boom" sound.

The brown paper envelope slid across the smooth table for a distance and stopped in the middle of the table.

Gerardo held the envelope with his fingers, pulled it in front of him, then raised his head, looked at Napotulis, and said in a deep voice: "What is this?"

"Detailed information on the garrison in Haligad City, as well as some of the defense plans on the outside." Naportulis said, "The last time you attacked Desai City, your attack went too smoothly, and they have begun to suspect that someone has leaked secrets.

, we are stepping up our investigation.”

Gerardor gave a faint hum and didn't care too much about it. These southerners only provided information to save their lives.

Since you have become a traitor, you must have the consciousness to pay the corresponding price. There is no good thing in this world where the sugar cane is sweet at both ends. Let these bastards take all the advantages.

Looking at his indifferent expression, Napotulis couldn't help feeling annoyed, but in the end he could only sigh deep in his heart.

Frankly speaking, if he saw someone being a faggot and betraying one of his own, he would not be ashamed of that person's behavior.

However, the current situation is stronger than human beings. The opponent is killing him at the door of his house. Do you have to let your family be buried with him for the sake of a Hadu?

There may be such brain-dead people, but it is definitely not them~!

Napotulis thought of this, paused briefly, and then said: "Also, Hadou has trained more than 100,000 militiamen in the past few months.

Take this to your boss and he will be able to use it.

Oh, by the way, the mysterious man in black next to Hadu has disappeared for a long time, this sneaky guy seems to be very important."

Gerardo put the envelope in his arms.

Napotulis stretched, stood up, picked up the hat next to him, and prepared to leave, while saying: "My boss also wants to end this war as soon as possible. If you want to solve Hadou as soon as possible, we can provide help.

Of course, the conditions remain unchanged."

After saying that, he imitated the etiquette popular among Laohe troops, reached out and touched his hat gently, then turned around and left.

"Are the conditions unchanged?" That night, Gerardo reported the latest progress of the negotiations to Lorraine.

After hearing the other party's conditions, Lorraine sighed and said: "This is not easy to handle. We and the other party are fighting each other."

Gerardor asked in confusion: "Sir, how do you say this?"

Lorraine smiled slightly and said: "Let me tell you a story. There was a businessman who died in a foreign country, and the coffin was parked at a family's house. Then the businessman's son came to retrieve the coffin. Someone was teasing the head of the household behind his back, saying that the coffin was this

If a person has to buy, he should ask him for money. The head of the household offers a high price of 10,000 gold coins.

The son was hesitating, and someone told the son that he could only buy the coffin of the householder to you and could not sell it to anyone else. The son thought it right, so he only offered the price of ten gold coins."

Gerardor laughed when he heard this and said: "This is interesting, what next?"

Lorraine spread his hands and said: "There is no more. This bid makes sense for both sides. Just like what we are now, the seller and the buyer are the only ones fixed, so the price is difficult to negotiate."

Gerardor understood deeply and nodded accordingly.

Lorraine said distressedly: "Now we are in a dilemma. We still have to rely on these moles to solve Hadou. But now the situation is very good. If we agree to their conditions, not to mention the Almohad people are unwilling, we are all here."

It doesn’t make sense.”

Gerardor hesitated for a moment, looked at Lorraine, and said, "What do you mean, sir?"

Lorraine shrugged and said nonchalantly: "I think their conditions are understandable. The Almohad is not ours anyway. But the so-called negotiation, there must be bargaining.

To break the current stalemate, what is needed is a twist from the other side's mouth.

By the way, how did the other party's negotiator look when he talked about this matter?"

"Very calm," Gerardor thought for a moment and said, "I can't tell he is bluffing. Maybe his subordinate is dull."

Then Gerardor imitated the way he negotiated, imitating Napotulis's expression and tone of voice very vividly.

Lorraine pondered for a moment, and finally shook his head with a smile and said: "This guy Hadou is also very powerful. If we can't see his body with our own eyes, we won't dare to let down our guard.

Anyway, negotiations are just the icing on the cake, only victory on the battlefield is real."

As he said that, he turned his head and looked outside the tent.

At this time, the lights outside the big tent were brightly lit.

The originally dark land was covered with tents of various colors, and countless flags fluttered in the night wind.

Everywhere you looked, you could see the lights of tents all over the mountains and plains, and the dots of firelight extended all the way to the sky, illuminating the sky red.

Against the backdrop of the lights, the stars in the sky were dwarfed and eclipsed.

At the beginning of November, the peacekeeping troops from three sides of Halua formed an iron wall and gradually gathered under the city of Haligad, tightly surrounding the city.

The Almohad's new army also received the order of Queen Isabella and sent all its main forces to the city. They even actively asked Archduke Julius to fight and wanted to be the main force in the siege. They were very enthusiastic.

Without seeing the bodies of Amor and Haddu, Queen Isabella and the government bosses would not have a good night's sleep.

Queen Isabella is bound to win the Almohad's second largest city, Haligad. Queen Isabella cannot afford to lose this southern central city with a population of 500,000.

If the peacekeepers' artillery bombardment destroyed the entire city into rubble, the loss would be too great for the Almohads.

In this world, everyone who is the boss has to act like a gangster at home, and act like a gangster abroad, and go around to maintain the peace of others like a representative, relying on hard power.

This hard power comes from population and economy, and a city like Haligad concentrates both.

Although the peacekeeping troops went all the way south, they have always shown restraint in the war and can be said to be civilized, mighty and benevolent troops.

Everywhere they go, they help local people lighten their burdens, take the initiative to dig land, carry water, repair houses, and distribute candies, chocolates, lollipops, etc. to children.

Only use firepower when encountering resistance, or to capture the city. Never show your tyranny in war...well, almost never show your tyranny in war, or use excessive firepower to destroy the entire city.

destroy.

But this is Haligad, and there is a guy named Hadou in the city. He is the Almohad god of war. He is highly respected among the southerners and has been operating here for decades.

His name on the mainland can stop children from crying at night. For decades, he has been a huge shadow hanging over the Ruman Empire, the strongest country in the mainland.

Facing him, Queen Isabella felt really unsure.

After all, the other side is too powerful. If both sides get jealous, the Ruman people will definitely turn this place into a scorched earth at all costs.

The 300,000 regular troops sent by the Ruman Empire are not really here to selflessly help the fellow feudal imperialist emperors.

The Ruman people are here to take revenge~!

No matter how lavish the external propaganda is, about prosperity and civilization, stability and peace, justice and harmony, the only thing we need to do publicly is to shout out that we Ruman people are the embodiment of justice, the messengers of peace in the world, and the hope of mankind.

But everyone, including the Ruman Empire, knows very well that the nature of these bastards is that they are small-minded and will retaliate, and they only take advantage and do not suffer any losses.

For Hadu, the number one enemy of the Ruman Empire, the Ruman people have already hated him so much that they can eat him alive without ordering sweet flour sauce.

In order to kill Haddu, the Rumans would definitely not mind blowing the entire city of Haligad into rubble. It was an Almohad city anyway. They would not feel bad if it was destroyed.

The only troublesome thing is that it takes a little effort to find gold or something in the ruins, but compared to watching Hadou die in their hands, this little trouble can basically be ignored.

This is why as soon as the Ruman Empire Senate heard that Hadou was going to be beaten, more than thirty old immortal senators were so excited that they suffered from cerebral hemorrhage on the spot.

Then, contrary to their nature of "fighting against the emperor, there is endless joy, fighting against bureaucrats, there is endless joy, fighting against the people, there is endless joy", which is affectionately called by the broad masses of the people as "brains with no lower limits", it was unanimously approved

The decision to send troops.

Immediately, 300,000 troops went on an expedition to help Almohad put down the rebellion on a voluntary basis without spending a penny from others.

Everyone in the Ruman Empire gives full support from top to bottom, just to avenge the country~!

Let everyone know that Ruman is the master at all times, and he is the master who must not be offended.

What Queen Isabella strives for is just to use a hair-thin straw rope to hold down the beast as much as possible to prevent the Ruman people who enjoy the pleasure of revenge from getting too high.

But if Lorraine knew what she was thinking, she would definitely sneer at it. Queen Isabella's idea was too wishful thinking.

You don't even have the determination to sacrifice Haligard, so you still expect the Ruman people to help you to the end?

Instead of worrying about the peacekeepers crushing Halligad, she should worry about her own new army.
