Real Mount and Blade Game
Chapter 330: Arrangements for Peace Talks
[You have killed the vanguard commander of the Seventh Dynasty of the Black Arrow Tower, and you have received the reward with the greatest effect...]
The densely packed dialog box contents appeared in Shen Mu's eyes. Shen Mu looked at them one by one, with a smile on his face: "This is really good, and the reward is really generous."
Because the rewards that appeared in Shen Mu's eyes were all top-level rewards, the dinars alone had reached 5.
Although now, because the dinars obtained from operating the two trade routes are accelerated by the power of faith and can be obtained continuously, it is not impossible to obtain 5 dinars easily.
Of course, now is not the time to care about this, because he also turned his head and looked outside the east city wall.
The pervasive black fog had been swept away by the Swadian heavy cavalry corps led by Fatis, including the group of Khergit horse archers led by Bestur on the other side, which had also joined them.
It was like two long dragons, strangling these undead legions, completely destroying the black fog that originally filled these undead legions.
"It looks like it's coming to an end."
At this time, on the balcony on the third floor of the main building of the castle, James, who had returned from having the Aidengard believers rescue the injured soldiers, looked at the scene of strangulation outside with a smile on his face.
"Yes, it's almost over. I didn't expect it to be a safe outcome." Shen Mu nodded. He was still frightened when he thought about the previous situation.
It was indeed a close call.
If he had not suddenly received a reward from the Mount & Blade system, and if the Mount & Blade system had not sensed the danger he was facing and gave him a targeted reward, it would be hard to say whether he could have held on until now.
After all, if it wasn't the Mount and Blade system, then look at the current situation, whether it was the Holy Light Enchanted Scroll or the reinforcements of the Holy Tree Knights, the reinforcements of the Rhodok Kingdom, and the reinforcements of the Khergit Khanate.
As long as there is one missing.
Then he is in danger.
Of course, this also included the reinforcements of the Vigia sharpshooters and the Vigia veteran archers on the main building of the castle, whose presence also helped a lot.
They are all linked together.
Ultimately securing the current victory.
"But in what I'm going to say next, Lord Shen Mu, I think our enemies, those wood elves from the Green Leaf Group, should be punished." James suddenly glanced at Zhang Bo, who had his back to him, with a mocking smile on his lips.
As a general trusted by Shen Mu, he already knew some secrets about Zhang Bo.
He was even acting with Zhang Bo.
Moreover, his acting skills were also quite brilliant. It can even be said that if it were not for James cooperating with Zhang Bo in acting, Zhang Bo would not have been so easily fooled, especially since he had made the 20 Aidengard believers cooperate with Zhang Bo's performance, as if they had been fascinated by Zhang Bo.
I'm afraid that Zhang Bo has already launched his conspiracy, and Shen Mu may not be fully prepared by then, and it may really bring some unexpected damage to Dehrim.
But even now, Shen Mu has already realized that Dehrim has indeed suffered some losses.
Especially those spiritual commanders among the humans of Blue Star, that is to say, the centurions he appointed, all suffered some casualties.
Although he did not know the specific casualties, Shen Mu had already learned about the situation through reports from the Swadian militia and Swadian recruits.
After all, although he seemed to not care about the town area of Dehrim at all and let the Blue Star humans manage themselves, in terms of details, he actually required Manid to cooperate with the Mounted Blade soldiers to monitor these humans in secret at all times.
There is no way he would give up the right to rule the urban area. There is no telling what these humans from Blue Star would do.
If you give up the urban area, it is equivalent to giving up your roots.
Although there is a castle area to sit in.
But if any problems really arise, the turmoil in the town area alone will disrupt Dehrim's normal life rhythm. If some losses really occur at that time, it will also affect Shen Mu's tax revenue and acquisition of faith power.
The riot that almost happened now has caused some losses to the Blue Star humans in the town area of Dehrim.
This caused some fluctuations in the power of faith that Shen Mu subsequently gained.
Just thinking about it made Shen Mu feel a little heartbroken.
But even though Shen Mu felt a little distressed, he couldn't show it now. Instead, he looked at James and said slowly: "Don't punish Green Leaf Group for now. Go and negotiate with them. I never sent my own forces to harass them before, but they directly launched an undeclared war against me. This is shameful. I need to know what they mean by launching this undeclared sneak attack."
These words were spoken to James, but actually they were directed at Zhang Bo who was beside him. After all, Zhang Bo was actually a spy for the Green Leaf Group.
To appease Zhang Bo now is equivalent to appeasing the Green Leaf Group.
"Master Shen Mu, isn't this meeting unnecessary?" But James looked like he didn't understand anything, and looked at Shen Mu in confusion: "After this disastrous defeat, the Green Leaf Group will never have a chance to compete with us. Now is the best time to destroy them, flatten them, and get rid of them. We don't need peace talks at all."
"The humans of Blue Star have been ravaged by the rules of the dead, and the civilization of Blue Star has been destroyed. We don't need to fight among ourselves anymore. Peace is the most important thing. If they are willing to cooperate with us, I can forgive them. After all, our losses are not that much." Shen Mu acted compassionately at this time, and he seemed to be quite emotional when he spoke: "Since we are the winners, let's be generous. If they are willing to provide us with the necessary power of faith and living supplies, then to be honest, the world of Blue Star is so big, even Long City is so big, we don't have to be limited to one street."
"You are merciful, Lord Shen Mu." James nodded slowly as if he understood Shen Mu's feelings.
At this moment, Shen Mu also looked at Zhang Bo next to him.
"Mr. Zhang Bo." Shen Mu said.
"I'm here." Zhang Bo, who was originally looking at the fierce battle outside the east wall, suddenly woke up, as if he had just come to his senses, and turned to look at Shen Mu: "Respected Lord Shen Mu, do you have any instructions?" "Yes." Shen Mu nodded and asked: "What do you think of our peace talks with Green Leaf Group?"
"Lord Shen Mu, can I still participate in this kind of thing?" Zhang Bo's face was very shocked at this time.
"Of course, you can participate." Shen Mu walked over and patted him on the shoulder, saying to him: "You are one of the Blue Star humans I trust the most, and you accompanied me tonight to block the attack of the Green Leaf Group. This must be said to be a kind of fate."
"Ah?" Zhang Bo seemed flattered at this time.
"Don't be surprised, Mr. Zhang Bo. This is a blood tax that has been jointly concluded. At that time, Zhang Caidong and those senior managers fought side by side with me and made heroic contributions to the destruction of the diesel company. Only then did they gain my trust."
Shen Mu had a smile on his face at this time: "And this time it came from Mr. Zhang Bo. Your warning was also very timely. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to predict in advance that the enemy would attack me. And you also saw that the powerful skeleton giant was really frightening, and it also showed extraordinary power. It directly built a ramp on my city wall and even destroyed my city wall. If you didn't warn in time about this terrifying power, I think there would really be some problems."
These words were spoken sincerely. After all, although Shen Mu was coordinating a performance with Zhang Bo, he did not expect that the enemy that appeared this time was so too powerful.
If he still stayed on the other side of the city wall, there might be some danger.
After all, now we can see that it only takes one strike to completely freeze the city wall, and now there is a giant sword of skeletons stuck on the wall. Just one look at it can make you feel your heart throbbing.
"This is what I should do, respected Lord Shen Mu. After all, I am a mage of prophecy, and you have taken good care of me in Dehrim. How could I not work harder for you?" Zhang Bo now understood what Shen Mu meant by the blood tax. It was like his token of allegiance. The early warnings he had helped Shen Mu with had saved Shen Mu many times.
This is certainly a reason to get closer.
Of course, Zhang Bo was also very clear that he was not actually actively helping Shen Mu to give an early warning. In fact, he wanted Shen Mu to appear in the main building of the castle according to his own grand plan, and then it would be convenient for him to summon the wood elf decapitation troops through the portal to kill Shen Mu and behead him.
But he didn't expect that Shen Mu really listened to his advice and even secretly carried out the floating ice, which caused his big plan to completely fail.
Thinking about it now, Zhang Bo wants to slap himself in the face.
At that time, he said that there was danger at the city gate and the city wall, so he asked Shen Mu to quickly come to the main building of the castle in the castle area to take shelter.
Facts have also proved that when extraordinary power appeared, three ramps were piled up directly outside the city wall, and a steady stream of skeletons rushed up. If the troops had not been mobilized there, there would have been considerable danger.
If the walls of the town area are breached, the entire town area will become a sea of undead monsters, which will be really troublesome.
Moreover, during this process, Zhang Bo also said that even more terrifying things would happen on the east side of the city wall.
All the troops in the castle area need to be deployed to the east gate.
As if to verify Zhang Bo's statement.
The giant skeleton appeared directly and pierced through the city wall. Although he was defeated by Shen Mu's background, it was indeed frightening. If something happened, it would be really fatal.
And Zhang Bo also said during this process that there was still danger and it was gathering, but he didn't know where the danger was, so he needed to send soldiers out and disperse them at various nodes for protection.
Then Shen Mu also agreed with this point of view and sent out soldiers to guard the walls and towers of the surrounding castle area.
This also verifies the result that the wood elf troops would launch a sneak attack.
Although there are certainly discrepancies in the timeline and specific details, they are no different from what Zhang Bo said.
It can be said that Zhang Bo, the prophecy magician, really predicted to Shen Mu the dangers he might encounter and really helped Shen Mu resist these dangers.
Made reasonable avoidance.
In Shen Mu's opinion, or in the eyes of outsiders, how could Zhang Bo not be working wholeheartedly for Shen Mu?
This is of course the student tax.
This certainly verifies Shen Mu's trust in Zhang Bo.
Especially as the battle was about to be won, and after a whole night of fighting, with dawn only about an hour away, how could Shen Mu not express his gratitude to Zhang Bo?
"Thank you for your trust, respected Lord Shen Mu. I will definitely not let you down when I work for you in the future." Zhang Bo seemed very sweet at this time, but his heart was also extremely complicated and sad. He did not expect that what he said casually would actually come true.
If you really think about why Green Leaf Group failed, maybe it really has something to do with the arrangements he made.
This made Zhang Bo extremely annoyed and felt extremely twisted in his heart.
He had thought that the Wood Elf Village was the Green Leaf Group that would destroy Dehrim and destroy the human territory.
But he ended up ruining his own perfect plan.
Zhang Bo wanted to cry.
However, he could not reveal it completely. Instead, he said to Shen Mu very humbly: "If I am called to participate in the peace talks with Green Leaf Group, I can also use my ability to know what the other party is thinking. At least as long as I can touch the other party's head, I can also ensure that the other party is sincere in what he says, just like I am a human lie detector."
"Well, that's great, that's why I asked you to participate, Mr. Zhang Bo." Shen Mu had a smile on his face: "That's very good."
"But the other party is not our prisoner. Maybe I have to use some tricks to make his head touch my hand." When Zhang Bo was about to say something, Shen Mu interrupted him directly.
It was as if I felt that Zhang Bo's words were a little ridiculous. (End of this chapter)
