Muzi said happily: "Ah! This is great, our hope has increased again. I will tell them now."
I nodded and said, "Go ahead and tell Brother Zhan Hu and others, so that they can be prepared."
Muzi skipped away. During this period of time, she became more and more lively, probably related to Xiaorou's influence on her.
After dinner, Shanyun and the prince returned to the temporary prince's mansion together. Although the prince looked a little thinner, he was extremely energetic and his face was rosy.
We all welcomed them into the hall.
"Uncle, thank you for your hard work."
"Haha, Long Gong, this little bit of hardship is nothing. As long as things are successful, I am willing to do it no matter how tired I am. Returning to Xiuda this time was much smoother than expected. Your Majesty readily agreed to the peace talks and handed it over to me. He had full authority to handle it. When he heard that five of the divine envoys were from Xiuda, he was as proud as a child. He said that people are used to living a comfortable life and no longer want to continue fighting. The only way is to comply with public opinion. The most correct choice, not to mention God’s will mixed in.”
Shuji said: "Your Highness, if this peace negotiation succeeds, you will take the greatest credit. Originally, we didn't have much confidence, but with your good news, everyone is now a hundred times more confident."
The prince smiled and said: "You are both the glory of Xiuda and the glory of mankind. From now on, just like Longgong, you can call me uncle. Your Majesty has already sent envoys to convey our intentions to the monarchs of the other two countries. I guess it's too late." It won't take long for the other two countries to have orders here. As for whether they agree to the peace talks, it depends on them. I feel that Dalu's problem should not be big, but the Aisha Kingdom is more difficult. In terms of strength, It is said that they are the most powerful among the Three Kingdoms because all the people practice magic."
From the prince's words, I remembered the powerful magic of several teachers, nodded in approval, and said: "If it doesn't work, we can only use some intimidation methods. Uncle, during this period, we all have a certain level of strength. I hope it will play a certain role in the negotiations.”
The prince said with satisfaction: "You are all young people who work very hard, and the world will belong to you in the future. I heard Ahu say that you still have some strength in the mountainous areas at the junction of the Three Kingdoms, right?"
Xiuji glared at Zhan Hu and said, "Yes, it's just a small team of a few thousand people."
The prince smiled and said: "The news I got is not like this. Recently, that small team you called has wiped out all the bandits and robbers at the junction of the Three Kingdoms. That is tens of thousands of people in total. Your small team 'The fighting power is too strong. This operation of theirs completely cleared this area of the Three Kingdoms. Although it made a great contribution to the people of all countries, it also attracted the attention of the three countries."
Xiuji and I looked at each other. In fact, we also received the news. The five elders said in the letter that in order to better expand their strength, the surrounding bandits and robbers have been completely eliminated. Those who caused excessive harm have been completely annihilated. Only those who made small mistakes will be eliminated. To persuade them to surrender, now our forces have spread throughout the Sangui Realm. They are stepping up their training of these people, hoping that they can be put to use in a short time. The combined age of the five elders is over 400, which makes Xiuji and I feel at ease with them. With them in charge, we will not be afraid even if they are attacked by regular troops. In his reply, Xiuji only made a few suggestions to the five elders, such as the good quality of the troops. The embroidery is uneven. In order to facilitate management, we must send our people there. This was just a few days ago. I didn't expect the prince to be so well-informed.
I gritted my teeth and said calmly: "What do the Three Kingdoms think of us? I don't want to lie to you. Now, where the Three Kingdoms meet, we have built a town with the surrounding mountains as city walls, surrounded by various small towns. Our All the strength is there. We have all seen the tyranny of the demon clan. How can we compete with them if we don't have troops that we can use our arms to control."
After listening to my words, the prince frowned and said, "Nonetheless, I hope you won't be too ostentatious. It would be bad if it triggers an encirclement and suppression by the Three Kingdoms."
I glanced at Zhan Hu, who was bowing his head in silence, and said forcefully: "We don't have any thoughts that are detrimental to the Three Kingdoms. There is only one enemy in our hearts, and that is the Demon King. If the Three Kingdoms cannot forgive these attacks on us, the losses will be It can only be yours. One thing I can tell you is that our hometown is now led by the five elders, and they all have the strength of sword masters."
The prince said in horror: "Sword Master?" Sword Master and War God are the highest ideals of all the people of Xiuda Kingdom, a country that advocates martial arts. Of course, the prince knows what Sword Master means.
I continued: "So, I hope you can also support us in this regard. As for what will happen to us after the demon clan is eliminated, we will only see when the time comes. Maybe not many of us will survive by then." ” Having said this, I couldn’t help but feel desolate in my heart. Brothers who follow us, as long as I am still breathing, I will never let the demon clan harm you easily.
The prince gradually calmed down and said: "Long Gong, don't get me wrong. We Xiuda have absolutely no ill intentions towards you. If you need any logistical supplies, we can also help. Before coming here, His Majesty also told me to work with you." Establish an alliance to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.”
As expected of a politician, his attitude changed immediately after he learned that we were powerful. My original favorable impression of the prince could not help but weaken a bit. "Uncle, don't worry, our mission is to maintain the peace of the continent, and of course we will be your allies. For us, all creatures on the continent, whether they are demons, orcs, elves, dwarves, humans, etc. Our allies and our enemies are only those who try to destroy the peace. As for supplies, we are also engaged in production, so we won't bother you." The increase in strength gave me more confidence to speak. In any case, we now have tens of thousands of troops. I don't need them for supplies yet. Just selling a piece of gemstone can support me for a while. Besides, our base is now establishing a complete self-sufficiency system. Once successful, it will be enough to feed these people.
