The embodied Death God couldn't tolerate the other party's disrespect towards Nangong Long and wanted to kill Sa'an with a sickle on the spot, but was stopped by Nangong Long raising his hand.

"Killing? Devil? Before you said me, why didn't the young master of Sa'an think about what he did? He ravaged the people wantonly, let them kill each other and took pleasure in it. He robbed the women of the people, and rewarded the subordinates after playing enough." Come on, there are not a few people who ruined it to death."

 1.6 Sa'an looked like he couldn't understand what Nangong Long was saying, and there was even a mocking look on his face.

"You mean the people? What do you care about? As a nobleman, even if I kill them for fun, they will increase by themselves after a while."

"Scum" Ailian and Lim did not hide their dislike for Sa'an.

"Chop off his head and send it to Tai Nadi," Nangong Long said to the manifested God of Death.

Before Sa'an had time to beg for mercy, he was separated as a corpse, with a terrified expression on his face.

The reason why Sa'an was not killed immediately was to let him speak out what was in his heart.

Nangong Long didn't want to give Ailian and Lim the impression of a bloodthirsty massacre, he wanted them to know that he had a reason for doing so.

Of course, the coward Sa'an can clearly and completely speak his mind, and it also has the effect of Nangong Dragon's magic, which reduces Sa'an's fear.

Chapter 10 Makes sense but I don't do it

It has been two days since the first battle in the Molsheim Plain, and the people of Alsace have not been affected, and they are still doing farm work as usual.

However, the lords still spontaneously held a banquet to celebrate the victory of the war. Although the lack of soldiers made the lords feel a little strange, but the lord said that the soldiers had other tasks, so the lords didn't think about it.

What they can do is limited. Apart from planting the land and paying taxes, they can only do what they can, and it is useless to think about other things.

Sa'an's head had been placed on the table in Tainadi's room by the shadow demon. According to the report from the shadow demon, Tainati smashed many valuables in a rage on the spot.

Even though Saan was a fool and unreliable, he was still the duke's valued son.

After venting his anger, Tai Nadi's face was still very ugly. On the one hand, his son died, and on the other hand, his room was sneaked into without being noticed by the guards.

The duke, who was in a bad mood, executed many guards of the mansion, then ordered to strengthen the defense of the duke's mansion, and then asked people to investigate the situation in Alsace. He wanted to know how the three thousand soldiers were defeated.

After finishing these 10 dukes, he drank wildly in the room while waiting for Dole Kavak, asking the other party to prepare a new trained dragon.

Dole Kavak asked Tainati for gold coins on the grounds of training dragons. Tainati happily called his attendants and gave him a bag the size of a human head, which was filled with gold coins that would fall out at any time.

In fact, training ground dragons or flying dragons does not require gold coins, and Dole Kavak asks for gold coins for other purposes.

After explaining the matter, the duke waved him back, and alone in the room, Tenati couldn't help showing a bitter smile. He really wanted to lead his troops to kill Alsace immediately, but he couldn't. He was the duke who had too many things to deal with. And he still hasn't figured out what's going on.

In the Earl's Mansion of Alsace, after listening to the Shadow Demon's report in the study on the second floor, Nangong Long asked him to retreat, and then asked Icarus who was standing beside him to give him the map.

Icarus, who ran around with Nangong Long most of the time, knew the existence of the shadow demon, so she didn't think there was anything strange about the black shadow on the ground.

Three days later, Sophia and Ludmila Lulier, who had rushed over from Jistad, came to the earl's mansion. Unfortunately, Masha also came to visit.

Nangong Long asked the maid to bring them to the living room together, and since they got together, let's meet together.

As soon as Eileen saw Ludmila, she quarreled with each other, but after a few words, Sophie knocked on the head with a tin stick. Seeing that Sophie was getting angry, the two immediately sat down and sat down in their respective seats. Location.

I heard from Lim that the two have been like this since the first time they met, and if Sophie didn't stop them, they would probably quarrel for a long time.

Sophie was relieved to see Ailian so energetic, at least it meant that she hadn't been abused here.

The current position is like this, Nangonglong, Ailian, and Lim are sitting on the sofa on one side, Sophie and Ludmila are sitting on the opposite side, and Masha is sitting on the single sofa on the left side of Nangonglong.

The desserts brought by Tita are placed on the wooden coffee table, and she is standing behind Nangong Long now.

"Ma Siha, tell me first," Nangong Long said.

Masha looked at Ailian, Sophie and the others, and the meaning was self-evident.

"Let's avoid it for a while." Sophie got up and said.

"no need"

Seeing what Nangong Long said, Ma Siha directly talked about his reason for coming, and Sophie also sat back.

"Gianulon's army stopped on the way to Alsace. I tried to contact them. They seem to be not active in attacking Alsace. Three days ago, they heard the rumors that the Taina Emperor's army was completely wiped out. Get out now"

"They should know that Tai Nadi's army has two dragons, so they didn't dare to march. As for the rumors of total annihilation, I let people let go."

"The [-]-strong army of the Duke of Tainati is really wiped out?" Masha showed a look of disbelief.

Although Nangong Long really wanted to complain that [-] soldiers are considered a large army, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it. After all, this is not an empire in the world of Crimson Slashing Pupils. Every battle requires hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

"I did order to kill all the enemy soldiers, otherwise let them go back and attack me next time. As for the earth dragon and the flying dragon, Ailian helped solve it."

A thoughtful look flashed in Sophie's eyes. Not everyone can call Eileen. It seems that there are still things she doesn't understand. Ludmila also noticed this, but she didn't say anything, after all, she disturbed others. Conversation is not the business of a well-mannered aristocrat.

"I am going to publicly support Earl Nangong, this is the negotiated release condition," Ailian said with a smile on her face.

This is what she and Nangong Long discussed before. After all, she was also captured. If the king rescued her, King Victor might not know how to weaken Ailian's strength. The old king was very afraid of Zhan Ji. that power.

Moreover, the false news released can also deceive Tai Na Di and Jianulong.

Sophie and Mira showed unexpected expressions. This trip was easier than expected, and Ailian took care of it before the negotiation started.

"Are you going to fight Tai 873 Nadi to the end?" Masha asked in a low tone.

"I killed his son, do you think we can sit down and talk peacefully?" Nangong Long asked back.

"Are you going to join Duke Canulon's camp?"

"No plan"

Masha nodded and said:

"In this case, let's analyze the form of the kingdom. Assuming that the power of the kingdom is [-], then the Dukes of Tainati and Canulon will each account for [-], and the remaining [-], of which [-] are the Knights of the Kingdom. ten are neutral nobles"

"The prince died in the battle of Dinant, and the king was seriously ill. The battle for supremacy of the kingdom between Tainati and Canulon is imminent. The so-called neutrality is just a beautiful fantasy. Of course, if it is a powerful nobleman, it will be fine. It's a pity. Those with less than ten powers are mostly minor nobles," Nangong Long said lightly.

"That's true. Although I don't know where your troops come from to wipe out the enemy army, but you need allies to fight against the two dukes. I think we can unite those neutral nobles and those who are forced to obey the duke's orders. Master Ji's support can almost form a third-party force," Masha suggested.

"What you said makes sense, but I won't do that," Nangong Long said with a smile.

Chapter 11 Don't Want To Ask For Trouble

"Why?" Masha frowned.

Sophie and Mira were very curious about why Nangong Long said that. In their opinion, Masha's proposal is undoubtedly the best choice at present.

Having seen those tall armored soldiers, Ailian and Lim behaved very plainly.

"I'm not interested in less than ten forces, and I may not be able to persuade them to join my camp. Taking a step back, even if I unite with them, it will only add more than 1000 people at best, and it will still be a group of mixed soldiers. This kind of self-inflicted I won't do troublesome things."

It is not Nangong Long's nonsense that the neutral faction, which occupies the top ten forces, can only gather a thousand soldiers, because not everyone is willing to stand up against the two dukes.

As long as the door is not opened, they are more willing to hide in the territory and watch, even if they live in fear.

What's more, the territories of these neutral factions are not as rich as Tai Nadi and Jianulong, and they can't recruit many soldiers.

For example, in Alsace, the territory of Nangonglong, the normal conscription can collect 300 troops, and the forced conscription is only [-] people, but if you do that, the main labor force in the territory will almost disappear, and farming will become a problem.

So if you really want to count on the soldiers of the territory, Nangong Long would have been completely cold.

"But if other nobles support us, our prestige in the kingdom will be much better. The Duke of Tainadi attacked Alsace for no reason. The king will not tolerate this kind of behavior of wantonly trampling on his own territory, and the nobles who are hostile to him will not be silent. Keep silent," Ma Siha said anxiously.

But Nangong Long didn't seem to listen at all.

"First of all, I don't need them to increase my reputation. To be honest, their titles are not high, and their influence in the kingdom is not high. Secondly, I want to correct one point. In this state, the government is maintained entirely by the cat-faced prime minister. Anyone who wants to see the king will be rejected by the prime minister for various reasons, and Tai Nadi and Jianulong will not be able to see it either. ˇSee"

"What?" Ma Siha couldn't help shouting, his mood was obviously shaken.

Although Sophie and Mira didn't change their expressions, they were extremely surprised. Is it okay to say such an important matter in front of them?

It took a while for Ma Siha to calm down. He looked at Nangong Long with a serious expression.

"Where did this news come from, and how reliable is it?"

"The news is absolutely true. As for how it came about, it is a confidential matter. You can go to the capital to see the king in person. I think the prime minister will let you see the truth with his personal friendship with you."

"It's really terrible news." Ma Siha said with a wry smile and a sigh.

"You don't have to worry about my affairs. You have seen all the soldiers guarding the gate of the mansion. I have [-] soldiers of that type, and I won't hesitate to beat anyone."

One thing Ailian and Lim have never figured out is how many armored troops Nangong Long has. There is always an illusion that the strength of the troops will become more after each battle.

Not to mention Masha, even Sophie and Mira were surprised by the staring boss.

Sophie looked to Ailian to find out the truth.

"I'm just standing up to support, in fact, I don't need to send troops to support," Ai Lian explained embarrassingly with reddened cheeks.

It is too unreasonable for an earl to have more than 2 troops. The standing army of the Principality of Zhan Ji does not have so many.

Besides, how does such a small territory support so many soldiers without food? Sophie, who couldn't figure out why, decided to ask Ai Lian later.

"Where did you find 4000 people? You don't have so many people in your territory." Ma Siha asked worriedly. He was afraid that Nangong Long would cooperate with someone of unknown origin to lure wolves into the house.

"Don't worry, they are all my soldiers. As for where they come from, they are military secrets." Nangong Long looked at Ma Siha and comforted him.

"You just know what's in your mind. I'm going to contact my old friend, so I won't delay your discussion."

Ma Siha took a deep breath and said slowly, then stood up and prepared to leave, Nangong Long got up to see him off, this old man really cared about him, so he explained patiently.

"If you have anything to say, let's start," Nangong Long said after returning to the living room, looking at Sophie and Mira.

"Originally we came to discuss the issue of Ailian, but now it seems that we don't need it anymore." Sophie gave Ailian a meaningful look, and Ailian forced herself to look directly at Sophie as if to hide her guilty conscience.

"Do you want to be the new king of Brunu?" Sophie suddenly changed the subject and looked at Nangong Long with a serious face.

"I don't have any plans for the time being, but maybe one day, on a whim, we will conquer the surrounding countries and unify them," Nangong Long replied in a very casual tone.

"You're really confident." Mira said sarcastically. She has shoulder-length short blue hair and is wearing clothes of the same color. She is a head shorter than Ailian by visual estimation.

Nangong Long replied with a smile as if he didn't understand her ridicule:

".'Of course I am confident. I am not afraid of this or that like the old king of Jistat. If Zhan Ji is my subordinate, I will definitely expand my territory immediately."

Mira's face changed, and there was a suspicious king, and they were helpless.

"The king is not generous enough and doesn't take responsibility. There is nothing I can do about it." Ai Lian seemed to have remembered something unhappy, and her beautiful face was full of displeasure.

"Ai Lian..." Sophie frowned slightly and looked at Ai Lian who spoke her mind.

"It's okay, no one will tell you"

Even if Mira had a bad relationship with her, Ailian didn't think Mira would inform the king.

"I really hope to have a king (Qian Zhaohao) who is good at politics and strategy, gentle and strict, not blinded by personal emotions, and not too rational, wise and courageous, and has a sense of justice."
