Grand Duke Ulu Baha is seeking his own death.
There has never been a third-level great swordsman who died as aggrieved as Grand Duke Ulubaha. To blame, he can only blame himself for being greedy for money, and he doesn't know good or bad, so that the president of the Double-headed Dragon Chamber of Commerce, Combat Wright, never died. Unable to bear it any longer, regardless of the relationship with his relatives, he was made to take Sangong Potion at the banquet, just like an ordinary old man who was beheaded by a sword behind him... .
In mid-July, 1773, under the Kingdom of Fayes in the Trimble Kingdom, nearly 140,000 troops from the Allied Forces of the Eleven Nations and 180,000 troops from the Commercial Alliance have been confronting each other for more than two months. No offense or defense, no battle, not even a challenge duel between knights. The main reason for this is that the knights in the eleven-nation coalition think that there are no knights in the army of the business alliance, and some are just mercenaries, and it would be too shameful to challenge them.
The two armies confronted each other, and the barriers were tight, but there was an endless stream of messengers and contacts between the two. It seems that, as the Morente Daily said, before the royal treasury of Trimble VII was empty, this glass war would not happen. finished.
For the Allied Forces of the Eleven Nations, this is a tacit understanding. Trimble VII is a fool with a lot of money. These 140,000 horses are here to confront the army of the Commercial Alliance. They will never launch an attack. Stay comfortably in the camp every month, all the supplies are provided by the Trimble royal family, not only eat and drink well, but also get a lot of commissions every month, and many ladies and ladies often come here Military camp **** party, this day is more pleasant than vacation, I really hope this war can last for two or three years...
But for the business alliance, the continuation of this war has made it difficult for them to ride a tiger. From the initial self-defense counterattack to occupying half of the Trimble Kingdom and then to the destruction of the Trimble Kingdom, the target is changing. The scale of the war is getting bigger and longer, and the duration is getting longer and longer. Compared with the military expenditure of the Eleven-Nation Alliance All the logistical supplies were borne by Trimble Kingdom, but the logistical supplies of the 180,000 troops of the Commercial Alliance couldn't find such a trickster, which had already put a heavy burden on the Commercial Alliance.
But the business alliance can only grit its teeth and persevere. The delay of this war has already involved many aspects and caused too much impact. Just like now, the Allied Forces of the Eleven Nations came to confront the army of the Commercial Alliance for money, accepting the Trimble Kingdom’s request for help, but if the Commercial Alliance can’t persist, no one can guarantee that the Allied Forces of the Eleven Nations will be defeated once it collapses. He turned into a wolf and jumped on the business alliance and bit him fiercely...
This is also the main reason why the 180,000 troops of the business alliance dare not launch an attack. They are sure to hold on, but if the attack is frustrated, it may cause an avalanche-like defeat. The 180,000 army is almost the entire strength of the business alliance. If the attack fails to dampen morale and collapse thousands of miles away, the consequences will be unimaginable...
Trimble VII, the initiator of the Glass War, finally came to his senses in the face of the situation where soldiers were approaching the city, and proposed a new request for peace talks. According to the request, half of the country was ceded and an apology was made to the business alliance to compensate for all losses.
It’s just that Trimble VII forgot to invite God, it’s easy to send God away, and now it’s not him who is in charge, but the eleven-nation coalition that controls Fayers King City. The commanders of these coalition forces have already made Trimble VII As a big fat sheep, how can you give up if you don't hate to slaughter it with a knife? The little life here is living a beautiful life, but the big money owner said he would quit. It's really unreasonable. So while they patted their chests in front of Trimble VII, they promised to drive the army of the commercial alliance out of the territory of the Trimble Kingdom, and at the same time cut off the royal family's external contact, as long as Trimble VII stayed in the palace obediently and gave out to the coalition forces. Money will do.
As soon as Trimble VII saw this scene, he knew that the general situation was over. The Trimble Kingdom was over, so he simply broke the pot and doubled the reward for the high-end combat power of the Commercial Alliance. Now, the great sword in the Eleven-Nation Alliance Both the teacher and the golden knight were moved. As a result, the assassination and anti-assassination of the high-end combat forces of the coalition forces and commercial alliances entered a climax stage, among which, the most eye-catching one was the great swordsman Grand Duke of the Principality of Urubah.
As the ruler of a principality and a third-level great swordsman, Grand Duke Ulu Baha should be regarded as the most noble person in the coalition army. But he has a problem, that is, he regards money as his life. Although the Principality of Ulu Baha is a poor country, the Grand Duke is ingenious and rents out the two legions of the Principality, and the annual employment fee is not less than one million goldford. It's just that all these gold coins went into the Grand Duke's private pocket, and he refused to invest in the people's livelihood or the construction of public infrastructure in the Principality at all.
Anyone who has been to the Principality of Ulu Baha knows that whether it is the capital of the Principality or the Grand Duke’s Castle where the Grand Duke lives, everything is dilapidated, and the only fountain in the square in front of the Grand Duke’s Castle is the Grand Duke’s grandfather. It was built when the Grand Duke, and this is the only public service facility in the entire Principality, for thirsty passers-by to fetch water to quench their thirst. It was just that the Grand Duke had thought about this fountain at the beginning and wanted to charge a fee, but later found that the water fee collected was not enough to pay the wages of the guards and toll collectors who went to the fountain, so he gave up.
For the citizens of the Principality of Ulu Baha, the current Grand Duke is an insatiable dragon-like existence, just like the legendary dragon. People spread rumors that the Grand Duke Fort is the Dragon Cave, and the Grand Duke’s favorite thing is the pile of gold coins. Sleeping on the bed, it can be seen how bad the impression of the Grand Duke is in the hearts of the people.
Even the two mercenary legions that earned a large amount of gold coins for the Grand Duke, the soldiers all complained about the Grand Duke's behavior and stinginess. For example, each legion's monthly mercenary salary is 100,000 gold points, but 60,000 of them are Included in the Grand Duke's pocket, the remaining 40,000 is the salary of the legion officers and soldiers, the funds for board and lodging and equipment replacement
What can a small army of 24,000 people do with only 40,000 gold coins a month including the salaries of officers and soldiers? Therefore, this legionary soldier ate the worst food, as long as he could barely fill his stomach, and the equipment was the most crude. The happiest thing for them is to be hired out for a few good meals, because the board and lodging during the employment period are provided by the employer.
Grand Duke Ulubaha brought both mercenary regiments to Trimble Kingdom to make a fortune, because Trimble VII paid three times the usual price, and one legion a month was worth 300,000 goldfords. The Grand Duke's heart was moved, and he didn't even care about the Principality. Anyway, no one would think about the Principality, he thought so.
When Trimble VII doubled the bounty for the high-end combat power of the commercial alliance, Grand Duke Ulubaha thought that with his ability as a third-level great swordsman, he could earn several million more, so he also invested Go to the assassination of Boom Lie Lie.
It's just that the business alliance had been on guard against this for a long time, and the anti-assassination was also carried out with great fanfare. They even set up traps to lure the high-end combat forces of the coalition forces into being fooled, and killed several great sword masters of the coalition forces. As a result, Grand Duke Ulu Baha couldn't find a chance to make a move, so he began to use his brain.
As a relative of the president of the Two-headed Dragon Chamber of Commerce Camberlet, Grand Duke Ulubaha has never been to Morente City, and his precious grandson is studying in a college in Morente City, relying on his grandfather being the Grand Duke He is still a great swordsman, and his relative is the president of the Shuanglonglong Chamber of Commerce, which ranks first among the seven giants of the business alliance. This grandson lives a very prosperous life in the academy. The second generation ancestor, often let the two-headed dragon merchant wipe his ass for the bad things he did...
Since Grand Duke Ulubaha has been to Morente City frequently, he will naturally go to the Two-headed Dragon Chamber of Commerce to fight the autumn wind. He also met many great sword masters from other chambers of commerce. Inevitably. Now the Grand Duke is targeting these acquainted great sword masters from the business alliance.
First, send a letter to the great sword masters of these business alliances, saying that at a certain time, the great sword masters of the coalition army will ambush you and want to assassinate you, and then when the days pass, the great sword masters of the business alliance will find out that it is true, two or three times Afterwards, the business alliance was relieved of him, thinking that Grand Duke Ulubaha was a good person. Although he was a bit stingy, he still cared about the old friendship, and his heart was still biased towards the business alliance.
Then Grand Duke Ulu Baha made a move. First, he gave a wrong information, saying that the three great sword masters of the coalition army were one person. As a result, the business alliance sent three great sword masters to strangle them. It was a three-on-three battle , No one can do anything to anyone, so peace is the most important thing. At this time, the Grand Duke rushed over and apologized again and again, saying that there was an accident. Before departure, there were two great sword masters from the coalition army who insisted on going with that great sword master. When the news reached him, he would be in a hurry. Afraid of an accident, I rushed to the rescue...
The three great sword masters of the business alliance did not doubt, but regarded Grand Duke Ulu Baha as one of their own. They were very friendly and sincerely thanked the Grand Duke for everything he had done. The vigilant swordsman struck a poisonous hand.
Not to mention intentional versus unintentional, as a third-level great sword master, facing a second-level great sword master and two first-level great sword masters, even if the other party is not on guard, it is easy to catch. The dead bodies of the three great sword masters of the business alliance were cut off by the Grand Duke and exchanged with Trimble VII for a bounty.
This happened right in front of the scouts of the Commercial Alliance army. The scouts who were frightened out of their wits sent the news back to the camp, and the whole camp was in chaos. account. In particular, the second-level great sword master who died was enshrined by the Peterson Chamber of Commerce, and the other two first-level great sword masters belonged to the Mayflower Chamber of Commerce and the Chicod Chamber of Commerce.
The three presidents were so angry that they almost pointed at President Camberlet's nose and cursed. After finally tossing and tossing until midnight, President Camberlet, who was almost ten years old at once, slumped on the chair exhausted, hating himself, his so-called relative, Grand Duke Ulu Baha, to death. Not only did he let go of his pigeons, but he also ignored his status as the commander of the commercial alliance army, and used the relationship he introduced to him before to do such an outrageous thing.
At this time, President Camberright suddenly found that there was still one person left in the big tent, and it was still the young master Thurliham of the Chickard Chamber of Commerce. He very politely told President Camberlet that he had an idea...
It was that night that the Principality of Ulu Baha was doomed to be destroyed, and President Camberlet reached an agreement with the young master of the Kiked Chamber of Commerce, Theriham. It is said that President Camberright lamented afterwards that it is a pity that several of his descendants are not as good as Thurliham, the young master of the Chickard Chamber of Commerce, who is a real businessman.
Grand Duke Ulubaha’s precious grandson was forcibly taken from the academy in Morente City to the camp at the front line. Chairman Camberlet wrote an invitation letter to his relatives, the Grand Duke himself, saying that his precious grandson would come He wanted to meet him, so he set up a small camp not far from the big camp, and hosted a banquet for Grand Duke Ulu Baha there.
Although the Grand Duke Ulu Baha is obsessed with money, he is also an old and treacherous person. He naturally does not believe that Chairman Camberlet will attack him, but he has just killed three Great Sword Masters of the Business Alliance and won a big prize. A huge bounty, of course, also prevents the business alliance from digging a hole for him to jump. But the precious grandson must not disappear, otherwise the grandson will have no future principality and no one will inherit it...
So the Grand Duke wrote back, saying that it is okay to meet each other, but the place has to be arranged by him. President Camberlet agreed.
Grand Duke Ulubaha ordered his Crimson Legion to break out of the camp, set up a new camp on the left side of the confrontation between the two armies at about the same distance, and then asked President Camberlet to bring his precious grandson to meet in the camp. The Grand Duke calculated very well. In the camp of his army, even if he was attacked by a large group of great sword masters, as long as his soldiers issued a warning, with his third-level great sword master skills, he could still escape unscathed. Lose. As for the Crimson Legion, it doesn’t matter even if it’s all over. Anyway, the Duchy of Ulu Baha has nothing but a large number of people, and there are many people who want to serve as soldiers...
President Camberlet still agreed. The first camp was a large group of horses and horses, all carrying materials for the banquet, because President Camberlet said he wanted a banquet, so he had to pay for all these things, anyway, if it was Grand Duke Ulubaha, he would die Those who don't know how to entertain others, even if they have no way to invite them to eat and drink, what they serve is the most humble food and drink, so it's better not to eat.
Grand Duke Ulubaha personally inspected the servants and cooks who came over, and inspected the banquet materials delivered. After confirming that these people were ordinary people and did not do anything, he was finally relieved, and he began to speculate about Camberlet. Why did the president invite him to a banquet at this moment, and what exactly did he want to do...
When President Camberlet came here, he didn't even bring a single gold-ranked swordsman with him, but brought a dozen or so silver-ranked attendants and the Grand Duke's precious grandson. Grand Duke Ulu Baha really let go of his guard at the beginning of the banquet. Chairman Camberlet is here to persuade the Grand Duke to stop and return to the country, and not to be involved in the war between the Business Alliance and the Trimble Kingdom. to go.
In other words, if the business alliance suffers from the Grand Duke's hand, it will be admitted, and the death of the three great sword masters will be considered unlucky for them, but this is the end of the matter. President Camberlet asked Grand Duke Ulubaha Don't embarrass him anymore in the face of relatives.
Grand Duke Ulubaha flatly rejected President Camberlet's proposal, saying that if it wasn't for the face of his relatives, President Camberlet would not even think about going back when he came here today. You must know that as the commander-in-chief of the 180,000 troops of the Commercial Alliance, the price of President Camberlet's head is doubled to three million Goldfords. This is a very difficult choice for the Grand Duke. This relative means that the Grand Duke lost three million gold coins, so the Grand Duke asked President Camberlet to give compensation...
Chairman Camberlet never dreamed that this relative of his would actually have his own head shot, and finally gave up completely. Grand Duke Ulubaha said with a strange smile, it’s okay not to pay compensation, as long as Chairman Camberlet lures a few other presidents of the chamber of commerce to come over, and the combined value of the head exceeds three million gold coins, he will let Camberlet go. president go back...
The banquet fell into a state of dead silence, and even several Golden Knights of the Crimson Legion who accompanied the banquet felt ashamed and humiliated by the Grand Duke's words and deeds. At this time, the Grand Duke's precious grandson jumped up and said that he had bought a bottle of good wine in Morente City and brought it for the Grand Duke to taste, which was also his tribute to the Grand Duke.
Grand Duke Ulu Baha was harsh to others, but he was very fond of his precious grandson. Of course he was happy that his grandson had such filial piety. He opened a glass of wine and poured himself a glass, and also poured a glass for President Camberlett.
President Camberlet didn't care. At this moment, he was using the wine to relieve his worries. He picked up the glass and drank it, and felt that it tasted good. As soon as the glass was put down, he signaled for another glass.
Grand Duke Ulubaha is not happy anymore, this is his precious grandson honoring him, pouring a glass for Chairman Camberlet is polite, and the other is to take the opportunity to check whether there is any problem with the wine. Seeing that Chairman Camberlet drank so bluntly, he became stingy now, and ordered another drink for the Chairman, and finished the bottle of wine by himself one glass after another.
Then, Grand Duke Ulubaha heard the sound of drawing a sword behind him, and turned his head to find that a silver attendant brought by President Camberlet was slowly pulling the sword out of its sheath. His eyes were like looking at a cow or sheep waiting to be slaughtered.
Grand Duke Urubah shouted: "What do you want!"
I just want to jump up, but I don't know if I don't move, and I realize that my whole body is empty without a trace of fighting spirit. The whole person feels weak and weak like a person who has been ill for a long time, and he can't even stand up...
Grand Duke Ulubaha was shocked, knowing that he had been plotted against, and hurriedly shouted at the golden knights of the Crimson Legion: "Come and save me..."
It's just that those golden knights looked at the Grand Duke with sarcasm and disgust, as if they didn't hear his cry for help.
The sword light flashed, and the head flew up.
Grand Duke Ulu Baha, the third-level great sword master died under the sword of an unknown silver attendant.
The Grand Duke's precious grandson was dumbfounded and terrified, his dear grandpa was beheaded right in front of him...
The curtain was lifted, and the young master Seliham of the Chickard Chamber of Commerce walked in with a smile. In front of the head of the grand duke, his precious grandson signed an agreement with the young master to make the Duchy of Urubah a The price of one million goldfords and one hundred thousand goldfords annuity per year was transferred to the Chickard Chamber of Commerce. From then on, the Grand Duke's precious grandson will obediently be an apartment in Morente City...
After the agreement was signed, the Crimson Legion burst into cheers, and then another three-color sword legion in the Principality of Urubah also immediately defected to the side of the Business Alliance, and then the Petersen Chamber of Commerce swept the Principality of Delia with the assistance of the Crimson Legion, because The two great sword masters of the Principality of Delia coveted the bounty offered by Trimble VII. They fell into the trap set by the business alliance during the assassination. They have already died. Eighty percent of the principality's military force was sent to Trimble VII. The Kingdom has made reinforcements.
Without fighting a single battle, the Crimson Legion successfully raided and captured the capital of the Principality of Delia. The Grand Duke Delia's family was hanged by President Peterson in the name of being hostile to the Business Alliance. Then President Peterson announced that the territory of the Principality of Delia would be incorporated into the territory of the Business Alliance, and that the Principality of Delia would be Become the territory of the Peterson Chamber of Commerce. At the same time, the Chicod Chamber of Commerce also announced that it would merge the Principality of Urubah into the territory of the Business Alliance and become the territory of the Chicod Chamber of Commerce...
this is okay too? So the second- and third-rate chamber presidents in the commercial alliance army also turned their attention to those small countries whose reinforcements are in the Trimble Kingdom, and their own great swordsmen are gone...
