Lord Highlander

Chapter 1289: 1276. The Death of Acheson

When Suldak came down from the watchtower, the camp gate guards stood up straight and saluted him.

Walking directly in front of the noble lord, Suldak said frankly, "I am Suldak, is your Excellency?"

"Deke Acheson, Member of the Wilkes City House of Representatives!"

The noble lord holding a golden cane nodded to Suldak.

Then he straightened his bow tie and said to Suldak with a straight face: "Earl Suldak, you submitted the application for the territory of the Three Rivers Plain to the Wilkes City House of Representatives. After some consideration, the House of Representatives decided to send me Check here."

Suldak nodded, and asked the Congressman Acheson to enter the barracks.

The personal guards behind Congressman Acheson followed immediately, and a group of people surrounded Congressman Acheson, appearing very powerful when they entered the barracks.

Seeing Suldak's accommodating behavior, Congressman Acheson became even more proud.

Congressman Acheson has done several times on behalf of the Wilkes City House of Representatives in this kind of work of negotiating after opening up the territory.

Although the lords who opened up the planes rebounded every time, and they all expressed their intention to appeal to the House of Representatives of Bena Province, but once this kind of matter enters the process, it will easily become nothing in the end.

Moreover, Congressman Acheson felt that standing behind him were the nobles of the entire Wilkes City. He came this time to offer an olive branch to Earl Suldak, asking him to join the Federation of Noble Lords of the Bailin Plane.

Of course, the price Suldak needs to pay is to cede part of the territory of the Three Rivers Plain.

Since the lords of Wilkes City were standing behind him, Councilor Acheson felt that he still had the upper hand when facing Suldak.

Walking into the barracks, Councilor Acheson found that it was more like a huge material turnover warehouse, with messy materials piled up everywhere, and there were hardly many lords' troops in sight.

He straightened his waist again, and his expression became more proud.

With that aristocratic pride on his face...

At this time, he seemed to have forgotten that the Earl of Suldak in front of him was a lord with outstanding military achievements. He simply thought that if he managed a barracks in a mess, he must not be very good at commanding the army. It was the Marquis Luther who piled it on him.

Especially after entering the military tent, the place where the sand table was originally placed turned out to be a model of a grand canyon and a dam. Senator Acheson could not find any military deployment on it, which further made Senator Acheson conclude that Sulda It is likely that K will not command an army at all.

He climbed the steps, sat down on a chair, and glanced around the tent.

He even saw two elf and human beauties in the corner of the military tent, their straight long legs dazzled him a bit, and he felt that Earl Suldak was still better than himself in terms of aesthetics.

Then he changed his mind and thought that Earl Suldak married the beloved daughter of Marquis Luther, so naturally he would not dare to keep these two beauties at home, and it would be a good choice to bring them to the barracks.

Councilor Acheson gave Suldak a contemptuous look.

That strange gaze made Suldak slightly startled. He couldn't figure out why the Wilkes City House of Representatives would send such an arrogant guy over to inspect the newly opened occupied area.

Carrie Decker quickly brought two cups of lemon tea, and Congressman Acheson looked at her long legs that were packed together seamlessly from her chest...

His gaze was a little presumptuous, but he immediately withdrew his gaze and said to Suldak:

"After my understanding along the way, I found that you actually only occupied half of the Three Rivers Plain, and the remaining area has not yet been completely controlled by your lord army. Count Suldak, is that true?"

Suldak was a little speechless, thinking that the Wilkes City House of Representatives really kept testing his bottom line again and again.

But faced with this question, Suldak nodded and replied: "It is true that some areas are not fully controlled."

"I came here this time to represent not only the House of Representatives of Wilkes City, but also the many nobles in Wilkes City. We hope that you can allocate a part of this vast territory to compensate Wilkes. The lords of Wilkes City, after all, this is the land that the Wilkes lords have always wanted to develop. We have been preparing for so many years, but you are the first to open it up. You should set aside part of the land to compensate Wilkes. What do you think, the lords of Erks City?"

Congressman Acheson felt that what he said was not bad, at least he expressed his meaning.

"How much do you want?" Suldak pinched the corners of his eyes and asked coldly.

Councilor Acheson waved his fingers and said, "Not much, just give us one-third of this land, and that's enough!"

Suldak was a little speechless, he didn't even know what to say to refuse.

Samira and Carrie Decker, who were sitting in the corner, also looked at Congressman Acheson with strange expressions.

Suldak thought about it, and decided to give him a step up, so he said to Mr. Acheson: "Actually, I have a better suggestion. According to the 433 land distribution law, this place finally belongs to my lord alliance. The territory is only 40% of the territory. After all, we are the lords' alliance army here. In fact, each lord can't get much territory if we divide it a little bit. In fact, most of the territory belongs to the Bena Province and the Green Empire. The lords really want to own the land here, so they can buy it from Bena province with gold coins."

Congressman Acheson didn't expect Suldak to refuse in disguise, and his face suddenly became ugly. He asked Suldak coldly with this poker face:

"Aren't you afraid that this hasty decision will make all the Wilkes lords stand against you?"

Suldak leaned closer to Representative Acheson, almost pressing his forehead against his forehead, staring into his eyes and said, "Just like you are not afraid that after you say these unreasonable demands... I will kill you, I Of course, I am not afraid to make enemies of all Wilkes lords."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lord Acheson felt a cold sharp knife stab into his back, and the severe pain almost instantly overwhelmed any perception of his body.

Councilor Acheson pointed at Suldak and said with disbelief, "You..."

Before he could even utter the following words, Congressman Acheson fell straight into the big tent.

Carrie Decker took the opportunity to pull out the dagger stuck in the back of her heart, and walked back to the corner as if nothing had happened. She didn't even ask Suldak why she wanted to kill the nobleman. The MP, and then retreated to the corner without saying a word.

On the contrary, Suldak walked over, turned over the body of Representative Acheson, and found that he was dead on the spot, so he called the guards at the gate of the camp and told them: "Carry Representative Acheson out, to his followers."

With that said, Suldak raised the curtain of the tent, walked outside the tent, and said to Baron Acheson's followers:

"When you go back, by the way, tell Consul Florian for me, so that he must send someone with a sense next time."

Those followers were terrified, and carried the body of Mr. Acheson away in a hurry...
