The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

Chapter 733: Transaction with the Northern Empire

Earl Kane's cavalry was not used for sieges, and did not carry any siege equipment.

They could not be used to attack Lionheart City, and naturally they could not be used to attack other demon cities.

To put it bluntly, the Northern Empire was too slow to act, and Xu Lai acted too quickly, so Lionheart City was gone.

The Northern Empire did not want to provoke such a powerful enemy as Xu Lai, nor did it want its own city to be taken away by Xu Lai.

However, it would take time to form a siege infantry corps.

Among them, siege equipment, supplies, and troops all take time.

The speed of infantry movement could not be compared with cavalry, so the Northern Empire had to send out a cavalry first.

Before sending troops, the Northern Empire actually knew that the Southern Empire and the Eastern Empire both had ideas about Lionheart City.

After all, this is the only capital-level city.

Even the Eastern Empire wanted to invite the Northern Empire to be an ally, and Grand Duke Aled was also tempted.

However, the Northern Empire knew Xu Lai's strength better.

After evaluating the combat effectiveness of both sides, all the ministers agreed that there was no need to fall out with the Eagle Kingdom at this moment.

This is the kingdom that defeated the orcs and demons one after another, and the Northern Empire suffered heavy losses in the battles with the Western Empire and the demons.

The Northern Empire hopes to have a stable period of recuperation, which coincides with Xu Lai's point.

"I'm really sorry, Your Majesty. If I leave like this, I won't be able to explain to Your Majesty Aled when I go back."

Earl Kane didn't dare to go on, but it was impossible for him to leave.

Xu Lai also knew that unless he really broke up, it would be impossible for him to make these people leave with just a few words.

Of course, the griffins he brought also played a role. At least with these griffins, these people dared not go beyond the line.

If Xu Lai wanted, he could leave some griffins and angels and just let Elvy watch them.

During this period, he could take the griffins and take down several cities in the Northern Empire first.

The demons lost superheroes such as Selron and Kerrigan one after another, and the remaining ones were all small figures, and there were not even a few heroes.

This was unlike humans. Even if all the great nobles were killed, there were still many heroes who came.

On the other hand, the heroes who came to hell were basically still hanging around in hell, and there were not many who could make it to the human world.

This also left a spark for hell. The old batch of demon heroes were killed by Xu Lai, and the heroes who came to hell just took the opportunity to occupy the territory.

But if the confrontation continues like this, it will not be a good thing for both sides.

If there is any accidental firing, Xu Lai will have to make enemies on three sides and face the attacks of the three major empires in the southeast and north at the same time.

At that time, let alone recuperation, if one thing goes wrong, maybe even the Western Empire will be lost.

His biggest shortcoming is that he does not have enough soldiers and generals.

The legion he formed can basically be said to be the strongest legion in this world, but if the enemy attacks on multiple fronts, he can only run around.

If Xu Lai doesn't want this, he can only honestly spit out some benefits.

But compared to several castles and the population of these castles, Xu Lai is more willing to give up the benefits that do not cause any actual loss to himself.

"Earl Kane, I wonder if His Majesty King Aled has obtained the construction drawings of the Congress now."

In any country, the Congress is only allowed to build one.

After Xu Lai gets the Castle Heart of Lionheart City, Xu Lai will have two Congresses.

At that time, one Congress will be forcibly downgraded, and no resources will be returned, but a Congress drawing will be returned.

Of course, as the owner, Xu Lai has the ability to decide which Congress to keep.

It's just that this time is not long, at most a few minutes. If Xu Lai can't make a decision quickly, he will default to the capital occupied after the downgrade.

However, although the resources for building the capital will all disappear, the buildings built by relying on the capital will not disappear because of the downgrade of the Congress.

Including the advanced cloud city, the super palace, and the city walls that are far superior to ordinary cities inside and outside, they will all be retained.

The scale will not be reduced, the buildings will not be reduced, but without the Congress, it is impossible to formulate national policies and increase additional income.

This loss has almost negligible impact on Xu Lai.

The key is that even if Xu Lai gets another blueprint for building the Congress, it will be useless.

He can no longer use this blueprint to build a Congress in any city.

But this blueprint, which is useless to him, is priceless to others.

The East Empire, the South Empire, and the North Empire will all fight for this blueprint.

Whether the North Empire has a Congress is something that cannot be concealed, unless King Aled obtains the blueprint of the Congress and does not want to establish a country.

However, only after the establishment of the country can there be a national panel to fully grasp the national situation.

Only then can generals and nobles with heroic attributes be enfeoffed, and the legions based on the country can be better controlled.

The rest also includes national taxes, national mineral resources, national field buildings, etc.

It can be said that any force that controls the Congress and has the qualifications to establish a country will establish a country as soon as it gets it.

Unless this force does not have the strength to establish a country, it knows that once the Congress is built, it will become the target of public criticism and cannot keep the Congress.

"Of course, it has not yet."

"I know that whether it is the Northern Empire, the Eastern Empire or the Southern Empire, your purpose of capturing Lionheart City is for the Congress.

Congress is extremely valuable, but I am the most useless.

However, I still owe a favor to the temple. Logically speaking, I should use this parliamentary drawing to repay it.

But I think helping the temple and rebuilding the holy city may be what they want more.

But you should also be aware of the situation in the Western Empire. The country is exhausted, the people's livelihood is completely lacking, and it lacks a large population and resources.

If you are willing, Lord Kane, could you convey my wishes to King Aled for me. "

Earl Kane licked his lips and asked without any hesitation:

"My dear King of the Eagle Kingdom, I am very honored to convey this wish to you.

May I take the liberty of asking in detail? "

Xu Lai smiled and said: "I will tell you even if you don't ask, otherwise what content would I ask you to convey?

I want to use the parliamentary construction drawings of Lionheart City in exchange for the support given to us by the Northern Empire.

Including but not limited to enough craftsmen, stones, food and other materials.

Of course, I can pay for these supplies at market prices.

All I need is that the Northern Empire can provide sufficient support channels. "

Using a congressional construction drawing to purchase a channel, the Northern Empire will undoubtedly make a fortune.

But if one knew that Xu Lai at this time might soon lose his largest material suppliers, those merchants from the Southern Empire.

It is said that businessmen have no nationality, and Xu Lai did not believe that those southern businessmen could make money.

However, Xu Lai's regiment destroyed the Southern Empire's 200,000-strong army and even recruited hundreds of thousands of infantry and archers.

The combat effectiveness of these warriors seems not to be very good, but that is just because they did not choose the right battlefield.

The key is that the equipment on these guys was built with the strength of the entire empire, and its value can be worth ten shooter legions of the same level.

Just by replacing the captured magic longbows with the shooters of the Qingfeng Legion, it can at least bring the 7th level shooters to the 8th level, or even the 9th level output level.

One can imagine how angry the countess and her husband would be when such a confidant was swallowed up by Xu Lai.

In this case, they will definitely try their best to prevent Xu Lai from obtaining more resources.

In addition, Xu Lai is about to liquidate the old nobles in Lion Heart City.

According to the report from the captain of the guard, Xu Lai knew very well how deep and close the connection between these nobles was.

If he liquidates these nobles, he doesn't know how many people he will offend. Not only the nobles of the Southern Empire, but also the nobles of the Northern Empire will have objections to him.

It is very likely that his liquidation will prompt the nobles of the Southern Empire to unite.

Therefore, even if Xu Lai can still obtain resources from the south, the price must be extremely high.

Both he and the Eagle Kingdom need a channel for material exchange that is stable enough and at normal prices.

The Eastern Empire is obviously not suitable. The relationship between the tower and the elves and Xu Lai is okay, but the distance is too far.

There is no problem in using the teleportation array to exchange for some scarce supplies.

If it is used to trade food, stone, wood and other basic materials, it will have to go to grandma's house.

After much searching, only the Northern Empire was more suitable.

It just so happened that the Northern Empire had already received the support of the temple, but it still had no parliament and could not become a real country.

Both sides have their own needs, and cooperation is beneficial to each other.

Of course, there is another condition for Xu Lai, which is not directly put on the table.

Earl Kane also knew this well. If he wanted to trade with Xu Lai, he must first make sure that the Northern Empire could not continue to pursue the ownership of those cities.

With the congressional construction drawings in hand, Kane is not worried at all about such a request. Aled will definitely agree.

After all, the actual control of these cities is in the hands of others, and they have not paid any price.

“I will definitely convey your request to His Majesty Aled.

I think His Majesty Aled would also not want evil to arise between the Northern Empire and the Eagle Kingdom, so he would probably agree to such a request. "

Xu Lai nodded and said: "It would be best if you can agree.

In the past few years since the demonic invasion, no one has had a good life. It would be good for everyone to be able to live a peaceful life for a while.

In this case, please ask Earl Kane to go back quickly and complete all the contents of the contract as soon as possible, so that we can sign the contract as soon as possible. "

Kane also wanted to go back early. First of all, he really didn't want to fight Xu Lai. The other party's fighting power was definitely not something he could handle.

Apart from anything else, there weren't many people on our side who could stop the angels around him.

He can fly again. Even if he is protected by a few well-equipped knights, he can't stop the opponent from being beheaded.

But before leaving the house, Aleder gave him more than one task.

"Ahem, sorry, Your Majesty the King, I have one more small request.

If your Majesty is willing to agree, I assure you that I will lead the team back immediately. "

Xu Lai rubbed his eyebrows and said helplessly: "Just tell me."

"That's right, Finance Minister Tiff has an extremely close relationship with His Majesty Aled.

When I came, His Majesty repeatedly asked me to help him bring Tiff and his family back together. "

Xu Lai exhaled heavily and said, "Count Kane, I don't want to make enemies with the Northern Empire because of my friendship with Prince Entan and Lord Hausen.

Does your Excellency think that I am afraid of your Northern Empire?

The famous Royal Griffin Corps and Royal Archer Corps have now been defeated and incorporated by me.

If the Northern Empire must choose to go to war with me, please believe that it will not be me who regrets it in the end!"

Xu Lai's words were a bit serious. Even if Kane felt uncomfortable, he could only endure it.

He was not right and could not beat others. What else could he do if he didn't endure it.

"Your Majesty the King misunderstood. If you have any dissatisfaction, you might as well raise it. We will find a way to compensate you somewhere else."

Xu Lai snorted coldly and said, "Haha, your Minister of Finance is planning to collude with others and bribe assassins to assassinate me.

Do I have to let go of those who want to kill me for a little benefit?"

Kane was stunned. He didn't expect this situation to happen. Tiff contacted King Aled directly, and he didn't know.

"Your Majesty, I know you are very angry.

I think there must be some misunderstandings.

If possible, please make your request and we will try our best to satisfy you."

Xu Lai rubbed his fingers. He didn't have much to lose anyway, but if this Tiff could really get some benefits, he would let her go.

After all, if he must kill Tiff by force, the cooperation between him and the Northern Empire will inevitably be affected.

"Let me put it this way. I need some time to thoroughly clean up the demons in the territory.

After Earl Kane returns, if he can convince His Majesty Aled to send heavy troops to the east, I can return Tiff and his family to the Northern Empire.

Of course, if you have other ways to put pressure on the Yuwen family of the Eastern Empire so that he can't cause trouble to me in a short time, that's fine.

But what if your method doesn't work and you don't have troops deployed on the border of the Eastern Empire.

When I was invaded by the Eastern Empire, the Northern Empire needed to send troops to assist me in the battle.

This is my only request. If you agree, cooperate. If you don't agree, forget it.

Anyway, when I kill Tiff, the relationship between the two sides will inevitably break down, so there's no need for both of us to be painless. Quick. "

Kane swallowed his saliva and said: "Your Majesty, please don't have such an idea.

Our Northern Empire and Your Majesty have always had a friendly relationship, and both sides are unwilling to let the relationship deteriorate.

I will definitely convey your request to His Majesty Aled.

However, if His Majesty Aled agrees to your request, how long do you need?

We can't always deploy heavy troops on the border of the Eastern Empire. "

Xu Lai slowly raised a finger and said: "One year, I only need one year."

Kane bowed deeply to Xu Lai, and then said:

"Then I will say goodbye to Your Majesty, and I hope that both sides can reach this cooperation. "

Xu Lai patted the other party's shoulder and said: "I hope so too." (End of this chapter)
