(At the end of the month, New Year's greetings in advance!)

*

Earl Elion took thirty family guards and escorted Mrs. Laura from Divine Grace to the city of Irenwood, in exchange for Namelia, Trani and Adric Dane.

Elion is burly, and looks even taller on a sand horse. Mrs. Laura is in good spirits, and her physical injuries have been well treated.

Elion never communicated with Mrs. Laura, he looked down on Mrs. Laura's surrender.

Mrs. Laura wanted to persuade Elion to surrender, not wanting him to bring the Elion family into destruction, but Elion's loyalty to the Martell family is beyond doubt.

At the same time, Yangji City.

Prince Daurang was in a wheelchair and patrolled the city. The swelling on his knees made him sore and uncomfortable, but his face did not show any unbearable pain. Instead, he smiled and waved to the people wherever he went. .

The guards patrolled the ground carefully in front, because a little stone particle on the ground would make the prince's leg more painful. The prince's wheelchair couldn't bear the slightest bumps, and the captain of the guard and the car together picked up the stairs.

This is the first time Prince Daolang has come out to meet the people in many years.

After his leg disease became more and more serious, Prince Daolang chose to live a life of simplicity-he did not want the people and nobles to see his pain and weakness. When the leg pain was unbearable, he would make a sound and his expression was painful. This damages the image of the prince.

The Dorn people are martial arts, they will not like a prince who can't even walk.

But today, Prince Daolang had to come out and patrol the city, cheer up the people and give confidence to the nobles.

Throughout Dorn, from west to east, from south to north, cities were captured. All the nobles in the city were captured, and all those who could not be captured were killed. These news shook the confidence of the entire Dorn people and also shaken them. The military spirit.

The fall of King Tomb City and Irunwood City made all Dorn people lose their confidence.

This time the enemy was different from any enemy. They did not choose to fight the Dornians, but defeated them individually, and each punch hit the Dorn's gap.

The "Orphans of the Green Blood River" in Bantiao Town to the east were slaughtered. The enemy troops along the Green Blood River ransacked all the cities and towns on both sides of the bank. All the nobles encountered were taken away, regardless of gender. Old and young; the most powerful Lemon Grove and God's Grace City were looted, and the lord's family and relatives were all captured.

The Starfall City and Gaoyin City to the west were even more miserable. The Starfall City became a dangerous rock that was poured and burned into ruins by kerosene, and the city of Bremen surrendered to Will.

The salt coast, the largest city in the south, was looted, small coastal towns were looted, and all the nobles were taken away.

The Crimson Mountains to the north is even more miserable. The Manwood family of King Tomb City and the Elenwood family of Elenwood were all annihilated. Only Elonwood’s youngest daughter was adopted by Will as an adopted daughter.

Since the start of the war, Princess Arianne of Dorn and Prince Oberon of the Red Viper were both led by Will. When they were stationed at the Bone Road and the Prince’s Pass, the east, west and south were empty, and these three cities were looted one after another. , The local nobles were all captured; when Arianne and Oberon led their troops to attack, King Tomb City and Irunwood City immediately fell, the so-called natural dangers were vulnerable to Will.

At this time, Prince Daolang made the national policy of ‘discussing peace’.

The Dorn people are never unfamiliar with Yihe, and every time they surrender is called ‘Yuehe’.

It’s just that the previous peace talks were the ‘marriage’ peace talks initiated by the king after the victory, but this time, the prince’s peace talks were initiated by the prince after being defeated.

It is impossible to pass the "marriage" again this time. King Shireen is a teenage girl who has "married" Stark in the north.

Wherever Prince Daolang went, he gave a speech on the national policy of "Yihe" in front of the people, pointing out the beautiful future of "Yihe" and the “dangers” that will be brought about by the dispute. His supporters chanted slogans, and more nobles The people chose silence.

The silent nobles are waiting!

They are waiting for Princess Arianne and Prince Oberon to return.

Most of the people agreed with the ‘reconciliation’, but their opinions were in line with Prince Oberon’s. They would first win a big battle and then discuss peace. The discussion and speech made by Prince Daolang with a weak body did not win the approval of most people. People represented their opinions with silence. The silences of nobles and commoners are different.

No aristocrat likes to ‘make peace’ like this while the Dorn’s army is still defeated. This is a shame. The Dorn army is still there. If the whole country issues a military order, it will be no problem to gather 40,000 troops.

It's just that the families of some powerful nobles have fallen into the hands of the enemy, this is the first time in history.

In previous battles, after the city was broken, the looting of the city included property and human lives, but this time there was only property and no human lives. The enemy does not slaughter the civilians, nor the nobles. The civilians get money and food, and the nobles are captured and killed are determined rebels. As long as they do not resist, no one will die.

This kind of enemy is also the first in history.

This tactic made the civilians very stable, without such strong hostility, and no terror against the invaders. The news spread from everywhere is consistent. The enemies in the four directions, southeast, northwest, and northwest did not kill civilians. Instead, they gave money and food. They only killed the nobles and soldiers who resisted. The city of Irenwood was taken, and even the soldiers were not massacred.

This kind of enemy made the Dorn people invisible, and this kind of enemy committed crimes everywhere, but did not cause panic among the people of Dorn.

This is also the first time in history. This time Donne faced the enemy, creating countless firsts in Donne's history.

They are flexible and changeable, blooming everywhere, but they have no troops to enter the middle of Dorne. The family of the captured nobles constrains many of the great nobles, knights and knights in the army, making them dilemma and worrying.

Most of the nobles who were in favor of Yihe with the prince were taken away from their families, while the nobles who opposed Yihe were family members and territories that had not been attacked by enemies. They have no loss and have the highest willingness to fight.

The silent majority are civilians.

The civilians are calmer than the nobles.

If the negotiation is successful and the enemy withdraws troops, the civilians’ taxes will be increased to make up for the losses of the nobles; if there is no agreement, the war breaks out and Donne is defeated, the lives of the civilians will still be guaranteed, and the nobles’ property and land will be separated. .

This kind of psychology after weighing the pros and cons has a subtle influence on the attitude of the civilians, and the civilians are the main source of Dorn's manpower.

The attitude of the civilians quietly controlled the wind direction of the situation, and Dorn's heart was undergoing subtle changes invisible.

0923 Chapter 2 Will Massacre Envoys Dorn Final Battle Overture

Irenewood City.

Earl Elion took thirty guards, wrapped Mrs. Laura to the outside of Irenewood.

Will, James, Arya, Angie, Pence, and Jonissa went out of town together, and they came to meet Mrs. Laura.

Elion let go of Madam, who rode on a sand horse, slowly approaching Will and the others.

Pence and Jonisa greeted them immediately, but were stopped by his wife.

Mrs. Laura came to Will.

"Prime Minister, are you still willing to accept my allegiance and allow the old woman to follow the adult?"

"Can't ask for it, madam."

Mrs. Laura got off her horse and knelt down on one knee: "Prime Minister, my thoughts were too simple before. The Bremen family made a choice, as if the arrow had been shot and could no longer look back. In that case, I will choose to join the Prime Minister. The adults fight together to the end."

"Welcome, please, madam!" Will said lightly.

He didn't get off his horse and raised his wife, and accepted the humility and respect of her.

Earl Eleon shouted: "Master Will, Mrs. Laura has returned, please honor your agreement and return our people."

Mrs. Laura got up, mounted her horse, walked to Will, turned her head, and faced Count Arion.

Then Will said: "Earl Elion, please come into the city. We have prepared a banquet for Lord Earl and thirty warriors."

"No, please return it to us Earl Edric, the daughter of the two princes."

"Eat first, and then see you away. This is a courtesy. Please don't refuse, Earl Elion."

Elion was suspicious: "It is said that Lord Will is scheming, you will not fail to keep your promise."

"Please come into town, Lord Earl." Will said.

The people separated on both sides, giving way to the middle road.

At this point, Earl Elion would be timid if he didn't go in again. The ridicule of the soldiers has sounded on the wall.

"Master Will, I need to meet the three of you before making a decision."

Will's face sank: "Earl Elion, since you insist on rejecting our sincerity, this is rude; since you are rude, there is no need to take the three people back. Please go back and let Prince Oberon send someone back. Come to welcome the three of you back."

Elion said in a deep voice, "Master Will meant that he would not let anyone go. How will you face the Seven Gods and the people of the whole country?"

"I'm not going to let people go. I won't hand over three distinguished guests to a rude person. Since I have come to Irenewood, don't refuse the host's kindness. Earl Elion, you have a banquet. , Protected by the guest’s power, what are you afraid of?"

A boo sounded on the wall.

Earl Elion looked back at the thirty warriors and said to Will: "Master Will, I can enter the city. You have to promise me to return the body of Roger Elion to me. He died for the country. The warrior of the country has the right to return to his family territory and rest in peace.

"Okay, I promise you!"

Earl Elion said, "Thank you Lord Will!" He raised the horse's rein and entered the city first.

Along the way, spearmen, shieldmen, swordsmen, and archers are lined up in layers and are heavily guarded.

Eleon and his party, accompanied by Will and others, arrived at the main gate of the Earl of Ellenwood. Everyone dismounted their horses. A guard immediately came up and took away all the horses.

"Master Will, why didn't you see Namelia, Treney, and Earl Edric along the way?" Elion became suspicious.

"They're in the lobby," Will said, making a respectful gesture.

Earl Elion entered the hall with his head raised. The guards in the hall were purged, but no three hostages were seen.

Elion looked at Will, and Will gestured to the earl to move on.

Elion looked back and saw that all the brothers had entered the hall, and Shama had been taken away. It was impossible for him to change, so he could only move on.

Fortunately, Will and the others did not ask them to disarm their weapons, which made the earl feel a little relieved.

So Earl Earl went on and came to a dining room that could accommodate a thousand people. There was no food on the table and no one. Elion looked at Will again, and Will said, "Bring out the three distinguished guests and meet Earl Elion."

As a result, the side door opened and two teams of guards rushed out, holding a short crossbow in their hands, and aimed at Elion's group of thirty people.

Elion was shocked and shouted, "Master Will, you will be condemned by God if you do this."

Qiang Qiang!

Elion drew swords with his thirty guards.

I heard the sound of a short crossbow violently sounding, and the sound of pouch pouch pierced the water sac like an arrow.

Countless short arrows shot out in a dense burst, and Earl Elion and thirty guards fell. The guards who rushed in front of Will and the others were also sealed with a sword.

In an instant, Earl Elion and his thirty warriors were killed.

Mrs. Laura was stunned!

Will marched, attacked the city and plundered the land, seldom killing. This time, Mrs. Laura saw the other side of Will.

Such killing is immoral, without any morality, and violates the spirit of the contract.

In shock, Mrs. Laura saw the soldiers orderly dragging away the corpses, washing the ground, and wiping all water stains with a rag.

Soon, everything returned to normal.

After a few more heartbeats, the restaurant door was opened, and Will ordered the scholar to send the raven to the city of Grace, and told Prince Oberon in the joint name of Earl and Will that Elion accepted Will The banquet will come back after the banquet.

This is a letter of peace that makes Prince Oberon not doubt his presence.

After Will sent the letter, the order was passed down, and the chefs and servants served the dishes like a stream of water to pick up the dust for Mrs. Laura.

"Madam, are you willing to go to Yangji City to negotiate with me?" Will said.

"My lord, you can't go to Yangji City." Mrs. Laura objected. "Red Viper and Princess Arianne are absolutely untrustworthy."

"If I must go, madam would you like to go with me?" Will smiled.

"My lord must go. Although I firmly oppose it, Laura dare not refuse to follow the military order." said Mrs. Laura.

"Very well, madam, we will leave in three days and go to Yangji City."

*

Prince Oberon of the City of Grace was relieved after receiving the letter from the Earl of Earl. There was nothing to worry about. Prince Doran made a peace, and Will agreed. He is the prime minister of the seven nations, representing There is no doubt that the most basic credibility and honor of the supreme kingship.

Therefore, Prince Oberon and Princess Arianne led their troops to Yangji City, and first arranged a military plan to capture Will.

As long as Will and his officials come, none of them will be allowed to leave. This plan is very important and must be arranged in advance. Prince Daolang’s people will buy what they can buy. If they can’t, they have to find a way to transfer them or send someone to restrain them, so as not to make mistakes when they do it.

As long as we catch Will, exchange him for the nobles of Dorne, and spend a lot of money against the courtiers in the Red Fort, we can reach a ‘reconciliation’ with Her Majesty Shireen. This is related to Don's future and destiny. The Red Viper knew that as long as they caught Will, regardless of whether Prince Lang agreed or opposed it, he had to choose to obey.

*

A few days later, King Tomb City and Irunwood City welcomed an army of forty thousand freedmen. The leading generals were Tyron Ashes, Giant King Mag, General Wooden Shield, Ding Dongshan, Thormond, and Kotou Haru. Freedmen fierce generals.

After a day of rest for a day in the two large border cities, the 40,000 freemen army slowly moved south and will slowly sweep Dorne with carpet tactics.

And the night before, Earl Elion led his thirty guards, Namelia, Treni, and Adric to Sunji City.

At the same time, Mans Reid in the open sea, Euron the Crow's Eye, Asha, the commander of Tokaiwang, and Shana the Elder of Skags Island, the four highest navy leaders led hundreds of warships and seven thousand navy The soldiers, detoured from the open sea, quietly approached Yangji City.
