The content of this sentence bordered on comical, but no one laughed at it, when Sallywell once said that he might be able to defeat Richard three to one, but the other generals of the empire would need at least five times as many troops

The emperor suddenly sighed heavily and said, "Sarenwell has fallen into the hands of Richard, even if I gather an army of 500,000 people, who will lead the army?"

The marshal hesitated for a moment and said tentatively: "Your Excellency Your Majesty Li Shilongtu may be competent."

Lee's name was once a name that could be tied with Sarenwell, but his reluctance to fight Richard took a toll on his prestige

The emperor nodded slowly and said, "Okay, pass on my order, transfer Li Shilong, and return to the capital within three days, so that the mages in charge of the teleportation array can be prepared, and the teleportation can't go a little wrong."

The herald's guards hurried away, and the emperor thought for a moment and said, "The empire is in an eventful autumn, and I have recently heard that there is no peace in the territory, so I am going to send a battalion of royal swordsmen to Knowles Mountain to guard against bandits."

All the ministers are in their hearts, and Knowles Mountain is the traditional territory of Li Shilongtu's family, where Li Shilongtu's family and children live, and Knowles Mountain is next to the imperial capital, where are there any bandits

No matter what actions the Iron Triangle Empire has, Richard has begun to interpret this war at his own pace, nearly a thousand flying beasts of various types of reconnaissance have been all over the sky of the Iron Triangle Empire, and dozens of sub-brains have formed a solid node, supporting the entire intelligence information network, and now any large-scale transfer of more than 1,000 people in the empire will let Richard know within a few hours

It was a war that the imperial generals had never imagined

Richard had already gathered the army of the principality and began to fight towards the Iron Triangle Empire, and finally the 80,000 army that was finally reorganized, plus various logistics and auxiliary forces, with a scale of more than 300,000 people, Richard gathered the most elite 30,000 people, and crossed the entire army dozens of kilometers

At this moment, in a carriage in the army, Richard and Sarenwell are sitting opposite each other, and between the two is a magic sand table that is not too big, Sallywell's face is blue and staring at the magic sand table, while Richard is constantly playing with a crystal ball, occasionally reaching out to tap on the magic sand table, and every time he clicks on the content on the magic sand table, there will be some changes

The military deployment of the Iron Triangle Empire can be said to be in Sarenwell's heart, so the changes in the content on the sand table shocked him, and when he saw this magic sand table, Sallywell understood why he lost so badly at the hands of Richard in the past

He finally looked up and asked, "It's hard for me to believe...... How did you do it?"

"It's a little incredible, but it's normal because it's a gap between the two planes," Richard said

"You are indeed an alien invader," Sarenwell didn't seem surprised when he said this

Richard smiled and said, "But the gods of Faro don't have much ability to punish me now, and the ultimate goal of this war is not the Iron Triangle Empire, but ...... Your God"

"You want to challenge the Faroese gods"

"Not very much," Richard smiled and shook his head, then turned the crystal ball in his hand and said, "I will only pick one god to attack, and in this case, I don't think that the gods of Faro will unite, on the contrary, as long as I release enough kindness, maybe more gods will stand on my side, like the three goddesses"

Sarenwell was silent for a long time before asking, "Do the three goddesses know that you are an alien invader?"

Richard asked rhetorically, "What do you think?"

"They...... It's a betrayal of the entire plane."

"But at that time, if you don't betray, you will first be cleaned up by the other gods of this plane," Richard said lightly

Sarenwell sighed and looked up at Richard and asked, "Why do you keep staring at me"

"Because you are a rare talent in Faro, if it weren't for the constraints of the plane itself, your achievements would be much more than this, and I don't want to let people like you go."

Sarenwell understood that Richard's mouth did not want to let go, which contained a double meaning, he thought for a moment, showed a bitter smile, and asked: "Since you are from an alien plane, what is the purpose of conquest?"

"Yes Conquest"

"After conquest, plunder or ruin"

Richard smiled and said, "It's not a deal."

Sarenwell frowned and asked, "Why the trade?"

"Because I will get more than mere destruction and plunder"

This is derived from the plane war theory of black gold, the gray dwarf's obsession with profit is simply ridiculous, so the study of various economic behaviors has also reached a profound realm, and his actual profound wisdom has been brought into full play, in the gray dwarf's view, a proper trading model can create a zào out of ten times more profits than the destruction of miè plunder

Sarenwell was silent for a longer time, he was not a simple commander, but more inclined to a king, so he understood Richard's unfinished words, and knew that when a choice had to be made, the young archduke in front of him would not give a second chance

He looked up at Richard and asked, "How can I believe what you say?"

Richard smiled and said, "I don't have to promise you anything, you can only believe it, or you can try to influence my decision in your own way."

This last sentence is full of demagogic power, but it also coldly and bluntly presupposes the division between master and slave

Sarenwell stroked his delicate beard and groaned for a long time before he sighed heavily and said, "Then if I surrender, what kind of position can you give me?"

"Let's manage the Iron Triangle Empire for me first," Richard had obviously thought about it for a long time

"Is it after the destruction of the country?" said Sarenwell's voice, with a hint of pain

"It will not necessarily destroy the country, the Iron Triangle Empire can continue to exist, and the blood of the royal family can also continue on the throne, but the person on the throne needs to be replaced, I think it's good for you to sit on it"

Sarenwell smiled wryly and said, "But it can't be exactly the same as before."

"Indeed, the Iron Triangle Empire will swear allegiance to me, officially become my vassal, and my will and orders will be carried out most thoroughly throughout the country, without any discount."

Sarenwell was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly and said: "In this way, I will become a sinner of the empire through the ages, and I will be scolded for at least a few decades, and after I die, maybe I will be scolded for hundreds of years."

Richard smiled and didn't answer

Sarenwell pulled the wind out of the window, and the cold wind with a heavy dampness immediately sent him shivers

Sarenwell's eyes were confused, death was a very simple thing, as a member of the royal family or a great magician, he had a secret method, he could die immediately and not have to worry about his soul falling into the hands of the devil, and when the battle for the border was near, although the undead army did not participate in the battle, as a magician, he clearly felt that the powerful and evil dark aura was close at hand

However, death is the heaviest of all, and Sarenwell does not know if Richard will have the patience to find a second agent from the empire if he dies here, and the empire may never exist again, and the future and fate of those close and familiar faces can no longer be powered

Try to influence his decision, Sarenwell wanted to laugh at the young archduke for a moment, and the voice lingered in his ears with the clarity of a young man, like the temptation of a kraken

Richard laid out two options in front of him, but laid down the sweet bait on the hardest of them

Outside the window of the car was the Darkblade Knights in the advance of the group, and these knights had left countless indelible nightmares in Sarenwell's heart over the past ten years, and no one wanted to fight such a strong, well-equipped, perfectly coordinated knight, and even more fearless to death

The Darkblade Knight in front of him was as cold and sophisticated as Sarenwell had ever seen, like a top-notch killing machine, the difference was that the quality of their armor and weapons had improved again, which meant that their combat power had improved again

If there were a thousand such knights, Sarenwell would find it unimaginable, but now there are more than a thousand escort knights outside the car alone

"How many such knights do you have"

"Now it's less than five thousand and it won't be more"

Richard's answer made Sarenwell stunned and asked, "Why not more?"

The answer is desperate: "Because I will soon have more powerful knights"

"It's like that...... Constructed Knight"

"There will be more Constructed Knights, but they will not be as numerous as my new Knights"

Sarenwell was silent and then said, "Do you need me to lead the army in this war with the Empire?"

"No, you are not familiar with my army and my way of war, you can follow me first to familiarize yourself with the next battle, but I will continue the next war in your name."

The carriage is quiet again, and a new order is about to enter the track

The war between the Crimson Duchy and the Iron Triangle Empire suddenly affected the hearts of the entire Western Continent, and people who are familiar with the current political situation in the Western Continent are not optimistic about the Iron Triangle Empire, but a large number of middle and lower nobles and low-level civilians are fanatical about thinking that the empire will win, and the Crimson Grand Duke is completely crazy to think that attacking the Iron Triangle Empire can gather a million troops, and the army used by Richard for the attack is less than 100,000, which is a comparison of the number of people that can be calculated by a child

In the next few days, two pieces of news spread throughout the empire at an incredible speed, one made people ecstatic, that is, the first general of the empire, Li Shilongtu, returned from the Eastern Front, and led the imperial army to meet Richard, while the other news made people stunned, Richard also announced the change of generals, and the forward army will be led by the prince of the Iron Triangle Empire, one of the two famous generals of the empire, Sarenwell
