Mountain and Forest Kingdom

Chapter 332: Land cession and compensation

Lawrence took several witches down the mountain, and this time even Lathander came with him.

The envoys from the West were placed on the concrete floor, surrounded by various fierce men staring at them.

When these dwarfs, who were generally 1.56 meters tall, entered the town of Pumixiu, they felt as if they had entered a town of giants.

Everyone here is a qualified warrior. Compared with the elite soldiers of the Western Kingdom who need to train for seven or eight years to become knights, the combat effectiveness here is terrifying.

The barbarians of the Luofen Kingdom were actually very capable of fighting. Even the knights of the Southern Kingdom could not withstand the attack of this group of primitive people.

Nowadays, these primitive people not only carry weapons and armor that are more labor-saving and stronger, but also learn to cooperate with each other and have clear goals.

In peacetime, no matter how much food there is, we cannot raise such elite soldiers.

These people under Lawrence can be said to be the most capable group of people in the Ice Sea.

When Lawrence riding the black unicorn appeared, the envoys from the Eight Kingdoms knew that this was the wise man in the north, Lawrence the Crowfeather Prophet!

"Prophet!" Some of the savages saluted Lawrence.

Lawrence said: "Get up."

Although he is very majestic when riding on a horse, it is enough to scare people when he appears.

Lawrence got off his horse after making his impression on the group.

The main reason is that the black unicorn is too tall, and it is easy to become a target when sitting on it, and it is inconvenient to dodge. Salil and others cannot protect their front and rear in time.

Although it was okay last time, the smart Lawrence is good at learning lessons.

Soon Lawrence sat on the throne, with Delenn and Candice standing on both sides, Salil and Khalan standing behind him, and Sophia holding a wine plate and shield sitting at his feet in front of him.

luxurious!

Especially after Cassandra, dressed as a female knight and noblewoman, was also standing on one side, she was perfectly symmetrical with Lathander standing on the other side.

Before Lawrence could speak, Count Garp took the initiative to take a step forward and said, "Merciful prophet, we hope to become friends with you."

The envoy of the Deco Kingdom stood up and said: "Merciful prophet, I am Teutonic Molesan, the envoy of the Deco Kingdom. The king hopes to be friends with you and pay gold coins as compensation."

Lawrence said directly: "I hope to get a large number of slaves."

Teutonic lowered his head, clenched his fists, and said solemnly: "We are willing to pay ten thousand baskets of millet. This is our biggest contribution."

Lawrence looked thoughtful.

At this time, people from several other kingdoms also planned to help the Deco Kingdom.

Count Cap said: "Our kingdom can provide thirty cattle every year."

William, the envoy of the Kingdom of Glen, said: "Our kingdom can provide three thousand kilograms of wool every year."

The envoy from the Kingdom of Kojako said: "Our kingdom is willing to give you the territory of Golden Mercia and compensate you with three thousand gold coins!"

The envoy from the Hokuriku Kingdom said: "We, the Hokuriku Kingdom, are willing to provide precious treasures such as pearls, animal skins, and ivory, as well as five hundred slaves."

Durila's envoy is Buffy, the wine merchant who came before.

Buffy said: "Our Kingdom of Durila is willing to provide two thousand barrels of red wine every year."

Lawrence nodded, "I want to ask a question, are there no slaves in your kingdom?"

Buffy said: "No more. We always lose in wars with the kingdoms in the east. Many people have escaped in the past few years. If we capture slaves, it will cause more rebellions."

"So that's it." Lawrence said he understood. "I understand your difficulties, so I will make the contract according to what you said."

Buffy and others breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that they could successfully negotiate this alliance.

Lawrence said: "As my friend, I tell your king that I will protect the Kingdom of Haisenli, the Kingdom of Deco, the Kingdom of Hokuriku, the Kingdom of Kojako, and the Kingdom of Gran."

"I will prevent the pirates in the north from visiting your land and keep you safe. At the same time, I will also give you some food and clothing for free. We are all believers of the God of Stars under the same starry sky. I hope that your The people can also have enough to eat and have enough clothes to wear.”

Buffy knelt down on one knee excitedly, "Thank you, merciful prophet!"

This time, not only the envoys of Durila, but also the envoys of the Kingdom of Deco were grateful to Lawrence for being so easy to talk to.

Lawrence knew very well that the Valkyries had suffered heavy losses this year, and the count was too temperamental to send any more troops. At the same time, Sidel was easy to talk to, and there were plenty of ways to make a fortune.

The main reason is that it's hard to talk to Pig Trotters City, and the people there are not very obedient.

Lawrence looked at the last two messengers, "Who are you?"

Both of them are men, only the clothes they wear are different.

"I am Kuoye Lilande, the envoy of the Green Forest Kingdom. Our kingdom is willing to provide three thousand baskets of wheat, five hundred catties of honey, and one thousand catties of beeswax every year."

"I am Bosman, the envoy of the Kingdom of Io. Our kingdom is willing to provide one hundred Domu sheep every year."

The Green Forest Kingdom is the forest kingdom below the Hokuriku Kingdom, and the Io Kingdom is the plain kingdom inland behind the Sea Forest.

The Kojako Kingdom gave Lawrence the territory of the blond Earl of Mercia, and Lawrence became neighbors with the Hokuriku Kingdom, the Kojako Kingdom, and the Green Forest Kingdom.

Lawrence thought about development plans.

The wars in this era were mainly based on looting, and did not develop to attack the enemy's effective force, such as killing everyone on sight.

Even the Wakiri mainly engage in robbery, but if there are too many people robbing, they will dig up all the leek roots.

The Western Kingdom did not want this situation, so just like the Southern Kingdom accepted Luofen III, the Western Kingdom also took the initiative to accept Lawrence.

"I need two conditions. The first is that the land and sea kingdom give me the land along the coast, so that I can freely enter and leave my kingdom."

"The second is that the Kingdom of Kojako gave me the people on that land. I need someone to farm there."

"As compensation, I can form a closer alliance with the Hokuriku Kingdom and the Kogako Kingdom, teach you the technology to make the land rich, and sell you farm tools at low prices, but these farm tools must be used for farming! Let more People have enough to eat!!”

The envoys from the Hokuriku Kingdom and the Kogako Kingdom just thought about it for a few seconds and then agreed directly.

"no problem."

The transfer of land is inevitable and something the king has allowed. It doesn't matter if you agree now. It is better than the other party taking it themselves.

Upon seeing this, Earl Garp quickly said: "The Kingdom of Haisenli is also willing to become a closer ally with you!"

Lawrence said directly: "Yes, I will provide you with food, and you will provide me with woolen products and livestock."

Teutonic, the envoy from the Deco Kingdom, looked at Lawrence, "Merciful prophet, can you stop the barbarians from the Lofen Kingdom?"

"I said, there will be no problem this year." Lawrence affirmed: "If any barbarians from the Luofen Kingdom rob you, I will compensate you for your losses and avenge you."

Teutonic said respectfully: "Thank you, kind prophet."

Lawrence said to Teutonic: "The Kingdom of Deco suffered many misfortunes last year, which were unpleasant things before our alliance."

"Now that we have formed an alliance, I allow you to pay me the compensation in installments within twenty years. Every spring I will send someone to instruct your people on how to cultivate the land."

In this era, neither business nor the entertainment industry can be developed because there are too few people!

Lawrence felt that he would never be able to wait for the day of population resurgence in his lifetime. What he could do now was to let this war-torn land recuperate quickly, and at the same time gradually expand his territory.

Three thousand people is already the limit, there are not that many slaves outside.

Nobles always sell slaves to foreign countries, and people at home will really rebel.

It is not yet the age of serfdom, and most of the slaves were created during the war.

Lawrence, who had started the war, now took the lead in quelling it.

Usually those who do this kind of thing will not end well. Luofen III was killed not long after the war stopped.

Lawrence believes that he is different. First of all, most people in the territory are not fighting for wealth.

Also, most people in the territory actually want peace.

The past of Pumexiu Town is still very clear. In fact, most people did not participate in the war for robbery, but to protect the home that Lawrence built for everyone.

Because it was Lawrence's decision that led everyone to take up arms and participate in the war.

Lawrence looked at the others, "The Deco Kingdom suffered heavy losses, so I showed my kindness, but you can't deliberately neglect me because of my kindness."

"I hope you will deliver the things you promised as soon as possible after you go back, no later than this time next year."

"This year I will patrol this sea area to stop the Luofen Kingdom from plundering you."

The rest of the people had no objections. If Lawrence was willing to share the knowledge of making the land rich and willing to stop the pirates' invasion, then the money would be worth it.

Lawrence quickly picked up the sword and drew lines on the maps brought out by several envoys.

Use your sharp sword to mark your own territory on the map!

After successfully acquiring the land on the other side of the Agama Mountains, Lawrence found the next direction.

It's time to unify the ice sea.

Since there is no one in the west, look for someone from the east.

There are now more than 3,000 people in Lawrence. If we add the 4,000 people in Valkyrie, there will be almost 10,000 people!
