"Clap!" Hearing his subordinate's urgent report, Philip, who was frowning, stood up as if he was twenty years younger in an instant. With his eyes shining, he stepped forward at this moment, grabbed the soldier's collar and asked, "What did you say just now?" "Yes... Yes." The soldier said tremblingly with a look of fear on his face. : "Archduke Victoria brought the lords to the front of the camp and raised the white flag." Without hesitation, Philip shook off the soldier and walked out of the tent. Protected and went outside, at a glance, I saw the Grand Duke at the forefront, and the white flag that kept shaking on the hands of the knights around him!

"Hahaha, Inos is above, your mercy and favor make me so grateful!" Philip suddenly exclaimed in ecstasy. But in the next moment, he replied calmly, squinting his eyes and smilingly said: "He can't surrender, it should be a peace or a truce. Victoria, your evaluation in my heart has risen by a layer." After saying this, Philip suddenly He straightened up, grabbed his saber in his hand, and without turning his head, turned on his horse and said, "Tell Lex and tell him to catch up." After that, he rode away on a steed. .

Not long after, the gate of the military camp slammed open. Philip and Lex, headed by them, wore luxurious leather coats and armor, and ran out of it with a large number of knights. "Are you going to surrender, dear Archduke?" Lex, who had just come to the front, immediately said with a sarcastic expression on his face. However, the Grand Duke did not pay attention to the child's plans at all, and looked at the real leader of the war, Philip, from beginning to end. However, he saw that Philip was bowing down on horseback very solemnly. After expressing his respect for the Grand Duke, he said calmly, "Dear Grand Duke, do you want to negotiate peace?"

"No, it's a truce. Your Majesty." The Grand Duke replied calmly. But in the face of such an answer, Philip nodded as a matter of course. He just glanced at General Mabru who was being held hostage, and said, "Forgive me, Your Excellency the Grand Duke. In the current situation, you only need to unite with General Mabru to besiege us. In less than ten days , I can only kneel in front of you and surrender. Why do you want a truce? It won't do you much good." Hearing Philip's words, the archduke suddenly laughed and said helplessly: ' General Mabru also told me this. Indeed, the current situation is indeed beneficial to us. "

As soon as the voice fell, Lexton, who was standing on the side, did not agree. He lightly brushed away the purple hair in front of his forehead, fiddled with his beautiful face, and retorted uncomfortably: "Losing? We have more than 20,000 people, and you, apart from the Nubian Knights, There are only less than 5,000 people left. How to fight with us?" But the funny thing is, as soon as Lex finished speaking, a snow-white snowflake gently landed on Lex's body like a mocking smiley face. on the gauntlet.

Everyone raised their heads and looked at the sky. But saw the snowflakes falling one after another at this moment. After a while, the ground has been covered with a layer of silver. "It seems that Enos is also in favor of ending this war." Philip said so with a sarcastic tone, ignoring Lex, who was sullen and silent. The Grand Duke pondered slightly, and suddenly said, "A protracted war will not do us any good. Let's stop the war. The Kingdom of Malta and our principality have no grudges. After this time, let this massacre be completely wiped out."

Hearing these words, Philip glanced at the gloomy General Mabru, nodded and said, "When our side is at a complete disadvantage, Grand Duke, you can stop the war with us regardless of your previous suspicions... You won me Respect and friendship with the Kingdom of Malta. I hope that when the war is over, you can accept my personal gift. Three hundred chariots of raw silk and twenty thousand gold coins. And five hundred swords and shields as an apology."

Hearing this, the Grand Duke knew that the matter was done, and a happy smile appeared on his face: "Don't be so polite. I heard that you have several sons, and I also have a daughter. I believe that the two countries will form an alliance and maintain our friendship with each other. Even better. Of course, trade between borders is essential." "Hahahaha, Grand Duke, you are the cutest person I have ever met!"

Thus, this sudden and sudden war came to an end. Although many soldiers were lost, the national strength was greatly damaged. However, with the assistance of the suzerain country, the Engellan Empire, and the relationship with the Grand Duke in the empire, he still managed to get some emergency supplies more or less. Let the Principality, which was caught off guard by the sudden cold winter, gradually settle down. On the other hand, Lex returned to Aixinzhe with his soldiers in a fit of anger. After General Mabru returned to Nubia, the Nubian king immediately tore up trade and alliances with the principality. Instead, he has a close relationship with King Lex, who has just been defeated.

The funny thing is that when the Archduke and Malta formed an alliance, opened up trade lines, and sent his daughter to the Kingdom of Malta, the friendship between the two countries was strong. It actually took the form of besieging the kingdom of Aixinzhe. Let King Lex worry secretly, and the connection with Nubia is closer.

These are things to come, not long after the war is over. After the grand duke held the funeral of Marquis Carmon, the son of Marquis Carmon was raised to the title of Marquis and served as Minister of Finance. It can be considered to fulfill the last words of the Marquis of Carmon. On the other hand, Alfred, who has returned to the fief, has a closer relationship with Olina, who was born and died together. Even blatantly in and out of Olina's bedroom. The gossip below is getting more and more rampant. People secretly despised Alfred, saying he gave up his knighthood.

And Donald, who hurried back to the Kingdom of Malta with a noble knight. Although under some agitation, he gained the dominion of the kingdom in one fell swoop. However, when Philip rushed back to the kingdom at an unexpected speed, all the nobles under his command rebelled, leaving only the miserable situation of Donald alone. On the side of contempt, Philip sat on the throne like driving flies and waved: "I'll be locked up in a big prison, and one day I'll be hanged on the gallows. An idiot who doesn't know the heights of the sky."

Paladin resolutely gave up the avatar Donald. After this line is cut off. When he returned to Adeley, he suddenly heard that the lovely bishop had died of illness in **. There is no accident, Paladin understands this truth deeply. If a large dose of lethal rain can't poison an old man, then dark alchemy is a complete joke.

Unexpectedly, when Sariel returned to the diocese, he heard that Bishop Adley died of illness. Immediately, he wrote his resume and documents and made Paladin a lightning bishop of the diocese. After the news came, those other archbishops who were still worried about the people under them just received the news.
