Different World Development Manual - Chapter 160

[Chapter 160 Olive Branch]

Duchy of Capet, Fortress of Mantoun.

This is a huge fortress built in the Duchy of Capet, on the north bank of the Aran River.

The Iris River flows through Dehebas on the western frontier of the Duchy of Dehebas, where it joins the Aran River.

This fortress is the key to holding Dehebas down along the Iris River, and it is the only way for Dehebas to go north.

The Norman emperor’s army was stationed in this huge fortress, and the “unfortunate” death of the Duke of Capet also caused the entire Capet duchy to fall into the battle for the title of the heirs.

Even in this situation, the descendants of Duke Capet have already prepared their armies to fight for the title of Duke Capet.

Fortunately, with the appearance of the Norman Emperor, the heirs of the dukes had to put down their hilts and discuss it another day.

The news of Fuxi’s death in the battle made Norman in the Mantuen fortress sad for several days. The 320,000 army was destroyed in a few days south of the Alan River, and the famous imperial general Fuxi died. The strength of the Demon King’s army has completely surpassed. Exactly what Norman expected.

Norman even regretted a little, whether it was right to use the hands of the Demon King’s army to cut the clan.

Fortunately, the Demon King’s army did not show too strong aggression. After advancing eastward and eliminating the combined forces of Florence and Cape, they immediately shrank their defenses and retreated into the Duchy of Dehebas.

After the coalition forces of Taclan and Weiya were quickly defeated, the Demon King’s army did not launch a further offensive north of the Aran River.

Even after receiving the news of the annihilation of the 330,000-strong army of the Queen of the Northern Territory, the Demon King’s army seemed to focus on defensive warfare after the war.

After defeating and capturing a large number of Imperial soldiers, they immediately retreated.

For a while, Norman couldn’t figure out the idea of the Demon King’s army at all. This was a world of difference from the extremely aggressive Demon King’s army recorded in the history books.

It seems that the Demon King’s army in front of him has no interest at all in taking down the Empire.

The Duchess of Arnotet, Freya, came from the north with a large army, and at this time, she was already stationed in the capital of Cape Duchy, Brie Island City.

Like Norman, in the face of the news that the expeditions of the major lords had been wiped out, Freya did not dare to lead the army to the south easily, but after arranging the line of defense north of the Alan River, she rushed to the Fort Mantuen without stopping. Reunite with the Norman Emperor.

Freya was not a female general. She walked to Norman in a beautiful long dress and said, “Your Majesty, the Demon King’s Army seems to have no plans to go north.

” Man found that the power in his hands could not be pierced at all, and even the Duchy of Dehebas couldn’t take it back.

Norman nodded with a gloomy face: “Well, I can’t figure out their intentions.”

The coalition of Norman and Freya dispatched a number of small groups of vanguard troops to cross the Aran River and infiltrate the south.

But once he crossed the Aran River and showed a hint of hostility to the Demon King’s army, he would immediately be wiped out by the Demon King’s army.

Freya said: “If the Demon King’s army only stops at the Duchy of Dehebas, then we have room to maneuver with them.

I remember that it was An Rui’s territory, and the original diplomatic envoys also called them Huaxia people, that should be An Rui’s hometown.”

Freya’s meaning could not be more obvious, since the Huaxia people have no plans to continue to go north, it is obvious that they can find An Rui to mediate and end this bad war.

Although Norman thought about such an idea, Norman was not sure whether the Chinese would accept it.

After all, the assassination of the envoys sent by the Huaxia people was instructed by Norman, in order to use the hands of the Huaxia people to weaken the power of the major lords in the empire.

The power of the major lords has indeed weakened a lot, but Huaxia, the big hand reaching into the empire, is simply not something Norman can lift.

Even if he asked An Rui to mediate, Norman would not be able to contact An Rui at all.

Ever since An Rui went to the Emerald Forest in the south to ask the elves to join forces to send troops, there has been no news from An Rui.

God knows that An Rui was killed in the battle with the Chinese in the land of the abyss?

Or did he rely on the Chinese people in his hometown?

And Norman cut his will, trying to cut through the abyss and rescue Margaret’s Yingwei image finally erected.

If you propose a negotiation to the Chinese people now, will you be worthy of your bald head and the nobles and commoners who support you?

What’s more, not only was Margaret captured, but even Isabella was captured by the Chinese, who simply swept him away.

Norman suddenly felt that it was difficult to ride a tiger, neither was negotiating with Chinese people, nor was fighting Chinese people.

At this time, a guard hurried in: “Your Majesty! Your Majesty!”

Seeing the panicked appearance of the guards, Norman and Freya felt nervous, and they all guessed whether the Chinese started to go north.

However, the guard gasped and said, ” The

Voidwalker is back.”

Norman and Freya were taken aback: “Jacobin?”

Gretel’s expedition to the abyss was specially arranged by her side.

The last time the Chinese messenger appeared, it was told that Margaret and Jacobin were both captured by Huaxia.

And what does Jacobin’s presence here represent now, the two politically sensitive guys immediately smelled a glimmer of hope.

Huaxia released Jacobin, most likely extending an olive branch to the empire and signaling a negotiation.

Norman stood up from his seat with a “hoo” sound, took a few small steps to meet him, and said, “Quick! Where is His Excellency Jacobin? Where is it?” Before

Jacobin came to see him, Norman Next, he took Freya and greeted Jacobin.

“Your Majesty!”

“Your Majesty!”

When the two met, Norman gave Jacobin a fierce hug.

As his confidant, Jacobin deserves such a hug.

Jacobin gently pushed Norman away, knelt on one knee on the ground, his face full of tears, and apologized repeatedly: “Sorry, the old minister is still too weak, unable to keep His Highness Margaret, causing Margaret His Royal Highness and the old ministers have fallen into the hands of the Chinese people.”

Norman shook his head: “I can’t blame you, I can’t blame you, the Chinese people are too powerful.

” Wan Dajun was completely destroyed in just two months, and this battle could not be fought at all.

He gently helped Jacobin up, and asked with concern: “Margaret, is she okay?”

Jacobin nodded: “His Royal Highness is okay, but now he is under house arrest in Anri Fort. Not

only His Royal Highness, but also Duke Isabella, Queen Sissi, and His Royal Highness Ollie were all under house arrest in Anriburg, and the Chinese specially set up a ‘study class’ for them. ”

Norman breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart after hearing that Margaret was all right, but he didn’t expect that all the great nobles captured by the Chinese would be locked up in Fort Anri.

“It’s fine, it’s fine.”

Then Jacobin continued: “Duke Dehebas, Aghanim warrior An Rui is now working with the Chinese.”

Jacobin nodded after pondering for a moment. : “Understandable, after all, it is his hometown.”

Seeing that Norman was not annoyed by this, Jacobin breathed a sigh of relief. Now An Rui, as the lord of the empire, is a key figure in the communication between the empire and China.

And from what Jacobins have seen and heard, it seems that China attaches great importance to An Rui.

If Norman was hostile to An Rui, it would be quite troublesome.

The strength of the Chinese people is obvious to all. Jacobin simply explained his experience with Margaret and what he had seen and heard in Huaxia to Norman, and said: “Your Majesty, Huaxia is not something that the empire can fight alone, I am afraid that this has to unite the forces on the entire Aghanim Continent.

And Huaxia let me come back this time, just to let me bring back a message that Huaxia is willing to negotiate with us for peace with conditions.

”

Norman and Freya looked at each other, and sure enough, Jacobin came here with Huaxia’s olive branch.
