Throne of Vientiane Civilization

That day, Lex talked with Diak for a long time, and then found that he and Diak unexpectedly got along well and had a lot of common topics.

The reason was simple, because Diak had also been a leader and a clan leader, and they could reach a certain degree of synchronization in some ideas and mentality.

In this process, Diak did not hide it and directly stated that they and the centaurs headed by Drogo were two tribes at the beginning, and finally they merged into Drogo's tribe and joined the Great Zhou.

This surprised Lex and added a few more intentions invisibly.

Of course, he did not show it directly.

After the banquet, Lex took his tribesmen back to the camp.

I don't know if it was a coincidence, but not long after they returned to the camp, Marshal Adolf's adjutant came with a carload of resources.

"Lex, a war has just ended. The marshal is afraid that there are not enough resources in your camp, so he asked me to send the resources for next week."

"..."

"Hehe..."

Feeling Lex's sight, the adjutant laughed dryly twice.

This resource refers to living resources, mainly food, which is agreed upon in the employment agreement and is part of their remuneration.

The remuneration of Centaur mercenaries is generally rarely in the form of currency, because in this era, the currency of one country is basically useless when it reaches another country.

So they usually ask for resources directly.

Equipment, food, daily necessities, in short, all kinds of resources they need are included.

After the winter, the food at the Centaur camp is basically delivered once a week.

And this week's share was just delivered two days ago.

Normally speaking, it is not a problem to deliver resources one or two days in advance, but according to the Saint Laurent Empire, today is Wednesday, which is a bit too early.

Lex is not a fool. He already knows what the other party is doing this time.

In response, he waved his hand and signaled a subordinate to move the resources into the camp.

"Thank you for your concern, Marshal, and please rest assured that we Centaur mercenaries are trustworthy."

After saying that, he turned around and walked back to the camp.

"Do you keep your word?"

In the Marshal's office of the fortress, Marshal Adolf smiled bitterly while listening to the report of his adjutant.

To some extent, he had a premonition of this result.

After all, in the past few years, Lex, as the leader, has always maintained a businesslike attitude in his cooperation with them, and never talked to you about anything else.

Originally, Saint Laurent V and Marshal Adolf wanted to use the opportunity of hiring each other in the past few years to influence them subtly.

Who would have thought that a big Zhou would appear out of nowhere, and the other party actually had a centaur cavalry under his command.

Good guy, what they spent so much time trying to do, the other party easily solved it just by having centaur cavalry.

This is like meeting an old friend in a foreign land, how can they not chat?

Marshal Adolf can even foresee what will happen next.

As they chat, won't they become familiar with each other?

Under this premise, if Da Zhou wants to recruit the Centaur mercenaries headed by Lex, the advantage will only be greater than them.

"Marshal, we can't just let it go, can we?!"

The adjutant was obviously a little bit angry at the moment.

After all, for so many years, he was responsible for the specific operations surrounding the recruitment of Centaur mercenaries.

Simply put, he was the one who was tired.

Good guy, he worked so hard for several years, and when Da Zhou came, he had nothing to do? All these years of hard work were in vain?

At this moment, noticing the reluctance of the adjutant, Marshal Adolf frowned.

"Then what do you want to do? This is originally a matter of mutual consent. The Centaur mercenaries have been doing their job impartially in recent years, and they are not ambiguous in fighting. Many of their people have died in battle. Do they still owe us?"

Marshal Adolf's words directly silenced the adjutant.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

He admitted that Marshal Adolf was right, but his dissatisfaction would obviously not dissipate so quickly.

Marshal Adolf, who saw this, frowned and spoke again...

"Don't make any mistakes! You know the strength of the Centaurs, and the strength of the Great Zhou should not be underestimated. They have air forces, and the Emperor Zhou is a wizard at the level of the Saint Realm, not everyone can provoke him."

"It is already a loss for us to fail to recruit the Centaurs. There is no need to make the relationship with the Centaurs and the Great Zhou stiff after paying this loss. This will only make us lose more! Do you understand?!"

If you ask Marshal Adolf if he is in a good mood at this moment, he must be in a bad mood, but he can't be confused when he is in a bad mood.

Logically speaking, even if the Centaurs were really taken in by the Great Zhou, you can't say there's anything wrong with them. After all, they were just an employment relationship from the beginning to the end. One pays the money and the other works. It's that simple.

Over the years, the other party has never had any intention of developing further with them.

To put it bluntly, it's just like falling in love. If you two can succeed, you would have done it long ago. Why would you chase her for so many years? Even if she is really "touched" by your perseverance in the end, it is mostly a temporary illusion, and there is a high probability that she will be cheated in the future.

The difference here is that Lex did not lure them, and drew a clear line throughout the process. It was really just their wishful thinking and they didn't want to give up...

Once the agreement expires, the Centaur mercenaries will be free again. It is their freedom to be hired by anyone or join any faction.

What qualifications do you have to make demands on them? Just because you hired them for a few more years?

Basically, no matter which faction, those who can serve as adjutants to marshals and generals are all reserves of generals, and they must not be too stupid.

Even though the adjutant was unhappy for a while, after being scolded by Marshal Adolf, his slightly heated mind calmed down, and he basically lost his initial impulse.

During this time, Marshal Adolf's mood also quickly eased, and then he looked at his adjutant again, feeling a little disappointed with him.

"Regarding this matter, you go back and write a self-criticism for me and reflect on it!"

As a general, how can he act impulsively when his mind is hot?

You know, if he gets hot-headed, it may even directly lead to a war between the two countries! Asking him to go back and write a self-criticism is considered a light punishment.
