The reaction Dane expected came quickly.
Unexpectedly, the fastest reaction he got came from Cinderella.
"Conley wants to talk to me?" Dane was very surprised when he received the news.
"Well, yes." Gnar's expression was also very strange. He thought about it and said, "It's from the north, the news from the army that came from Cinderella and didn't dare to get too close to us. It was brought by a courier. I heard that the envoy of Governor Conley has already set off from Cinderella, and the person who came is a big man."
"Hmm..." Dane read the letter with his own eyes, and had a better understanding of the situation.
He knew that the leader of the army stationed in the small town 70 kilometers away from Iron Spike Hill was Heka Tim; It's Janice. Although the names of these two people are not as big as warlords such as Kang Li and Ou Ze, they are one of the six high-ranking warlocks in Lost City, and they are also two of Schindler's illustrious reputations. caster.
In the past, the status of the two parties may have been very different, but now, Dane doesn't care much about them.
What he paid more attention to was the attitude shown by Governor Conley by sending a heavyweight envoy this time.
In the past, there was a lot of hatred between him and Conley. From the very beginning, when he hacked the mammoth man to death, entered into a state of hostility with Malone, and joined Morno's expeditionary force, he had actually become opposite sides to Governor Conley. Later, as the situation developed, Dane also approached Ou Ze's camp step by step.
For Conley, at the beginning, Dane was just the leader of a small mercenary group, at most a small warlord, and he didn't care at all. Therefore, at the beginning, he never felt that he had to fight for Dane. But now, he realized that he was wrong, and started to make amends. He sent an envoy, which was obviously an act of kindness.
Dane is happy to see this happen. The last thing he wanted to see was that Kangli would focus on himself recklessly. Although, that would not bring catastrophe, and even after he attracted most of Kangli's attention, Governor Oze would have a better chance to directly threaten Kangli's core area.
But Dane is not willing to do such a useless thing: Why should I block Ou Ze's gun for you? To be honest, if Kang Li hadn't been too hasty and hasty to move towards the north, he would have considered very carefully even hitting the nail post.
Well, that didn't happen. Kang Li was still rational, considering from his point of view, the Ou Ze General Hospital was a serious problem in his heart, and Dane could always let it go and deal with it.
Dane, on the other hand, was happy to see all of this happen. If Kang Li and Ou Ze fight each other to the death, and when everyone is too weak in the end, they come out to find a leak by themselves, that is of course the best and best result.
Of course, this is impossible. But in any case, it is a good choice for Dane to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.
In fact, there is no need for Janice to come, and Dane does not need to listen to Conley's conditions. He can almost make the final choice now: standing on the front of Governor Oze, it must be unshakable. . He certainly couldn't really get together with Conley, although, in that case, he would strike back and attack Oze from the south, and then Governor Conley's force would attack from the north, easily able to suppress Oze to the point of being almost unbearable. It's a turnaround, but in that case, after Ou Ze is beaten to death, who will be the next to be stabbed? Dane guessed it was him.
In his vision, Conley is a target that must be eliminated. This is the necessary ending for Schindler in Dane's mind. However, it is not impossible to compromise on how this process will go.
Since Conley has the intention to talk, Dane thinks it is not impossible to talk. Anyway, after a while, it is impossible for him to agree to the request of rebellion, but he can slow down the offensive in the south and let Ou Ze and Kangli fight.
However, this attitude should not be made too obvious. Although Dane is not afraid of being seen by others, at least some superficial things must be done well. It is a good thing to make a lot of money in silence. If you want to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight and show it too obviously, maybe Er Kangli will be overwhelmed, which is not good.
However, before the matter is formally negotiated, he still will not give up this good opportunity.
At this moment, the situation at Iron Spike Hill had basically stabilized, and there was no need for Dane to deploy too many troops in the city. He asked Palan to take the soldiers of the garrison to help the newly captured city, and waited for the new troops that would be mobilized from Shawan Port later. As for himself, he and Pei Xinsi led the troops separately, divided them into two groups, and began to attack in all directions in an even crazier manner, sweeping away all the gathering places north of Iron Spike Hill.
His troops are basically in a state of starvation, and under Dane's clear order, they will hardly let go of any place where people exist. Whether it is a village, a small town or some small cities, they cannot escape the iron heels of Dane's legion.
Of course Dane would not do things like massacres and bloodbaths. After all, there wasn't any serious hatred, and Dane wanted money, not life. He only needs to break through the city, and then clean up the landlord class and the city's warehouses, and that's enough.
This place, that is the territory of Governor Conley. It's just that the defense here is too weak. After the Iron Spike Hill Legion and Arnold's Legion were destroyed, and the Hekatim Legion did not dare to take the initiative to attack Dane, this area was really allowed to be slaughtered by Dane at will.
This kind of harvesting operation lasted for almost half a month, and Dane didn't stop until the barren land could no longer squeeze out a drop of oil and water. Here, he harvested a large sum of money again.
While he stayed contentedly at Iron Spike Heights, he also heard that Janice, Governor Conley's messenger, was trembling with rage when he passed by the town he had looted.
Regarding this news, he smiled blandly, unmoved by it at all, and even wanted to laugh a little in his heart. The displeasure of the enemy is his greatest achievement.
According to the speed of the envoys, they arrived at Iron Nail Hill, and it was estimated that it would be almost two days later. But before that, Dane had to receive another envoy, the envoy from Beast Blood Castle.
