Your Majesty, the Spectacle Has Missed the Country!

Chapter 54 Earl Sauron’s Compromise

Bruno has always agreed with the view that war is an extension of politics, and all military activities should serve politics.

Therefore, when Earl Sauron agreed to negotiate and admitted failure, Bruno immediately ordered a cessation of all military operations against the Sauron Territory.

In his opinion, the life of every Idar soldier is precious.

Although only three soldiers were killed in the previous conflict in Idar Territory, this still made Bruno, who was accustomed to peaceful development, a little uncomfortable.

But he also knew clearly that people would always die in war, so he could only gradually adjust his state.

The conditions put forward by Bruno in the letter are undoubtedly harsh. Whether it is the cession of land or the compensation of gold coins, Bruno can be regarded as a lion's mouth.

But now the Sauron Territory has no room for bargaining. After the army was wiped out, Earl Sauron is like an old lamb waiting to be slaughtered, losing all bargaining chips...

"This is too much! Such a request is simply unheard of! No decent noble can accept such an agreement!"

Earl Sauron, who was almost out of oil, participated in the peace negotiations on the outskirts of Sauronburg, accompanied by his personal servants.

The frail old man was furious when faced with Bruno's conditions, so much so that Bruno was afraid that the old man would pass away if he was not careful.

In fact, the main dispute between the two parties is still focused on... well, all the terms are controversial, but the most serious dispute is the one that gives away all the territory south of the Solon River.

But Bruno refused to give in to this condition!

Because he found a perfect place to build wonders on the banks of the Solon River!

About 20 kilometers away from Sauron Castle, there happens to be a tidal flat at the intersection of the Saulon River and its tributaries, and the original geographical environment of Namur Fortress was very similar to this.

Moreover, once the Namur Fortress is built here, it can rely on the surging water of the Sauron River to resist threats from the north.

At the same time, building a fortress here can also directly include the Glen Highlands within the territory of Idar Territory, which is of extremely important strategic significance for the large-scale mining of the Glen Highlands iron ore.

For these reasons, Bruno was determined to acquire the land south of the Solon River.

However, Bruno had never been interested in such a wasteful war of words, so he called Old Ford who was originally at the rear of Idar City overnight.

As for the outcome of the negotiation, leave it to these two old men to argue.

Bruno himself, led Liszt and a few followers to the Solon River in advance to check out the location.

To be honest, the current of the Sauron River is very strong. If Idar's soldiers had not rushed quickly and crossed the Sauron River before the Sauron Territory could react, the soldiers might have suffered losses.

[Terrain entry successful——]

[Wonder modeling completed——]

[Have you chosen a site for the wonder to be built? 】

The familiar pop-up window appeared again, and Bruno chose a positive reply without hesitation.

Not long after, only a faint sound of biu was heard in the air. Bruno's coat pocket suddenly sank. He touched it with his hand and knew that the construction drawings of the Namur Fortress had arrived.

However, despite the experience in building hanging gardens, the construction of Namur Fortress still faced many difficulties.

The most important one is still the problem of insufficient manpower.

You know, the current Idar Territory is still building a road connecting Stranglethorn Valley, Idar Territory and Mann Fortress. The construction of this road alone has mobilized all the idle production teams of Idar.

And besides this road, there are three more roads waiting to be paved.

What's more, early spring has arrived, and most of the serfs and civilians in Idar Territory are busy farming, so there is an even greater shortage of manpower.

In addition, since it is determined that the Namur Fortress is to be built here, a road is needed to connect the Namur Fortress and the city of Idar.

Therefore, from this point of view, there are still five roads and a fortress in Idar Territory that need to be built urgently, and both manpower and money are urgently needed.

Fortunately, Bruno didn't tell Old Ford in advance, otherwise Old Ford might faint again.

"That's right!" Bruno suddenly had an idea and ordered to Liszt: "Go and tell Old Ford that the gold coin compensation can be slightly compromised, but it must be compensated to us serfs! The more, the better, and we will accept everyone who comes!"

"As you wish, sir." Liszt replied.

After two days of negotiations, the Idar Territory and the Sauron Territory finally reached an agreement and formally signed the Treaty of Sauronburg on the outskirts of Sauronburg.

The content of the "Treaty" did not make many changes. After all, old Ford was not a vegetarian if he really wanted to quarrel.

Of course, all the land south of Sauron's territory belongs to Bruno. This is a point Bruno emphasizes.

And Old Ford also made certain compromises on the issue of gold coin compensation. After all, the gold coin compensation offered by Bruno at that time was really too high, and it was purely for extortion. UU Reading www.uukaｎshu.net

As a result, the total compensation of gold coins and Herman Buckley's ransom were reduced to a total of one thousand gold coins, but at the same time, the Sauron Territory needed to unconditionally give the Idar Territory 300 serfs.

As for other details, they are mostly irrelevant.

Bruno was very satisfied with this result. After all, this counterattack allowed him to annex almost half of the territory of the Sauron Territory, expanded the area of ​​the Idar Territory by a large area, and also expanded the Sky Garden. The range of effects has been expanded.

All the knights captured during the war were released together with Herman Barkley, while the civilian soldiers were all detained by Bruno.

The captured civilian soldiers will be demoted as serfs of the Idar Territory, and several new production teams will be formed to take on the task of building the Namur Fortress together with the 300 serfs given by the Sauron Territory.

"Old Ford..."

Bruno shouted while happily flipping through the "Treaty of Solenberg" he had just signed.

"Yes, sir."

"Here." Bruno handed over a roll of parchment nonchalantly.

"What is this?" Old Ford took it with confusion.

Then……

An ominous premonition began to spread in his mind.

"The Sauron leader is extremely ambitious and is eyeing the Idar leader. Although they were defeated this time, there is no guarantee that they will not invade again. Therefore, I decided to build a fortress by the Solon River to become the bridgehead of the Idar defense system." Bruno Said quite excitedly.

"Master...why are you going to waste your family again..."
