In the morning, the north gate of the town. Tang En sat casually on a bluestone pier a few feet square by the roadside, supporting his knees and chin with one hand, frowning slightly, a slight cold breeze blowing his broken hair on his forehead, motionless, very much like a small town square at this moment. stone statue. Although his eyes were looking into the distance, his eyes clearly had no focus, and he was lost in thought.
From the preliminary investigation to the subsequent arrival of Bran's construction team, and now waiting for the official arrival of Josiah and others and the Bran negotiation team, Tang En has led Gray Space to stay in this town for a whole week, and has also inspected It has been a week, but the bad premonition is still there, but no problem has been found.
There are no signs of danger at all.
His expression remained calm, but his heart was extremely agitated. He had used every means he should and shouldn't have investigated, and he had used all means he should and shouldn't have used. Tang En thought he had taken security matters to the extreme. It is no exaggeration to say that he has walked through every inch of the tightly controlled town behind him. He has gone in and inspected every building. He was only three feet away from digging, but in the end he still found nothing
Not only inside the town, but within thirty miles around the town, a blanket search and investigation has been carried out. Not to mention the possible hiding of Bran's army, even low-level monsters with some damage capabilities have been killed.
??Don¡¯t look at the mountains and rivers here now, and the wind and waves are calm. In fact, in the surrounding hills, there are already elite cavalrymen with unsheathed bows and swords waiting in full formation. If any abnormal situation occurs, they can rush to surround the town in a matter of seconds. Or break back to meet the enemy and ensure the safe evacuation of the people in the town. In this way, the danger of a surprise attack that may come from outside the town is eliminated.
Within the town and outside the town. All conceivable attack methods, sources of danger, etc. have been considered. But why does the danger intuition still persist Okay. Sometimes Tang En felt that he was overthinking, overthinking, and suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder. Otherwise, how could he explain the current situation?
¡°Boss.¡± From a distance, David strode over with a loud voice shouting. Without turning his head, Tang En said calmly: "Is Bran's negotiation team here?"
"Yes, I came in from the south gate. The pomp and circumstance - tsk tsk, he is worthy of being the second prince of the empire. I looked at those purebred white horses pulling the cart. They are worth dozens of purple-bore cannons"
After smacking his lips, David couldn't help but shake his head in surprise. His expression and body movements all interpreted the true meaning of the word hanging silk. Then he sat carelessly next to Tang En, squinting his eyes and looking into the distance, "Have the leaders not arrived yet?"
"The winner, of course, has to appear in the finale It's almost over, it will be almost done in another quarter of an hour." Tang En replied casually without changing his posture.
David scratched his head when he saw this: "Boss, do you still think there is a problem here?" For Tang En, Gray Space naturally has infinite trust and loyalty. This week, it was precisely because of Tang En's intuitive insistence that David and others did not sleep a wink for several days and nights.
??Shaking his head. "have no idea,."
"Uh. Why do you say that?"
Tang En pondered for a moment and then said: "Do you still remember the stalemate between Josiah and Bran before he refused to accept the canonization of the red archbishop of the temple? What was the result? A week later, Bran simply agreed I heard Josiah¡¯s opinion There is something wrong with the change of attitude. If something goes wrong, there must be a monster. And one week is enough to lay out too many conspiracies! "
"Then what should we do now? Negotiations are about to begin." Tang En's guess was just a guess, without any actual evidence to support it. However, even though they had been investigating for a whole week, David and others did not waver in their judgment of Tang En. Hearing this, he followed the train of thought and said directly, "How about we temporarily change the negotiation location? Anyway, it is just a signing of the agreement. Lan doesn¡¯t dare to have any objections.¡±
"It's too late." Tang En waved his hand lightly and pointed behind him, "It's not like you haven't seen the grand venue in the center of the town. If we temporarily change the negotiation location, Bran may have something to say again Of course we can gossip. I don¡¯t care, but this is related to the reputation that the Gray Army has worked so hard to build ¨C we can¡¯t lose it!¡±
"Your mother" David hammered his palm with hatred and was extremely depressed.
The truth is this. If the Gray Army is still in the early stages of building a team, its reputation will be ruined, and it can be made up for in the future. Or if the Gray Army develops into an old and powerful force like the Bran Empire, then its reputation will be just scratching the surface, so there is no need to worry too much about it. Unfortunately, the Gray Army is now in a new period of new construction after having made some achievements. It cannot afford any turbulence, nor can it bear the impact of a bad reputation. So even if you know there is a pit ahead, you can only grit your teeth and step through it!
After a long silence, Tang En took a breath and stood up: "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Joshua and the others are coming soon. Go and bring a reminder to Harry and Luke, asking them to control the venue and everything will be done as we have done before. DeploymentDon't be careless in following the plan! "
"Don't worry, boss." David nodded heavily, turned around and left quickly.
At this moment, Tang En raised his head with squinted eyes, looking at the messengers rushing back in the distance, and the corners of his mouth suddenly raised slightly: "Ha, it's interesting, let's see what tricks you can pull off this time"
Shaking his head, it is useless to think too much when the matter is at hand. Tang En quickly adjusted his mental state, regained his relaxed appearance, and walked towards the soldiers who were rushing to deliver the order
¡¡
The messenger is a signal, which means that Josiah and others have arrived at the outskirts of the town.
Sure enough, a moment later, billowing smoke and dust rose up in the distance, and then the faint sound of horse hooves drifted in the wind, and a knight brigade of more than a hundred people rushed towards the north gate of the small town.
The first rider was wearing a pure white cloak, and the horse's back was rolling sharply with the ups and downs. Who else could it be if it wasn't Joshua? There were also familiar faces on the side, including Frey, Ferry, and a group of senior senior men in the Gray Army. They surrounded Josiah like stars holding the moon, with whips flying and hoofbeats beating rapidly, making him look majestic.
After a quick glance, all the high-ranking officials in the Gray Army were here. After all, it is such an important moment and has far-reaching significance. No one wants to miss it as long as they can come. When Tang En saw this, he suddenly had a strange idea in his mind - if something went wrong later, the superstructure of the Gray Army would also be destroyed
Shaking his head, he threw away this absurd black humor. Tang En strode forward to meet them. Looking at Josiah and others who came closer to tighten the reins and reduce their momentum, they all looked happy and overjoyed.
He stepped forward to help Josiah down and chuckled, "Haha, I'm very happy. It seems that this negotiation has taken a lot of advantage."
¡°It¡¯s necessary, I¡¯ll take whatever I can!¡± Josiah replied proudly, raising his chin slightly. But the next moment I couldn't stand it any longer. I chuckled and sighed with emotion, "Since I joined the Gray Army, I have negotiated with Bran three times in total, and this time it was the easiest. I also robbed with confidence! Haha, Who makes us the victors?"
"Haha, yes, it feels like robbery." Frey threw away the reins and took over the conversation with a smile, "First we start negotiating the terms with a lion's mouth, and we still want to wait for the other party to bargain. Offering the true price of the compromise. Who would have thought that except for a few conditions, the other party would easily agree without any effort, which made us regret for a while. Haha I didn¡¯t say one word, it¡¯s great!¡±
"Haha, let's go to the town to have a rest and sign the agreement accurately." Tang En also smiled and greeted everyone, shrugging, "Since the benefits are all coming, you have to give the other party some face no matter what. After all, the enemy is the one who took advantage of you. It¡¯s the biggest.¡±
"Hahathis makes sense, the biggest victim is the one who gets taken advantage of haha"
It can be seen that everyone is in a good mood, of course, this is inevitable. It¡¯s not just the benefits of robbery in negotiations, but the most important thing is the irrepressible and unparalleled sense of accomplishment in my heart!
Bran Empire¡ª¡ªGray Army¡ª¡ª
Although the comparison has been made many times, I still have to say that there is really no comparison between the two. The former is like a majestic mountain range, and the latter is like a tiny ant crawling hard on this majestic mountain range. But now, with a wave of its slender legs and feet, the tiny ant has actually kicked over the towering mountains - this is a great achievement that makes the body and mind tremble and the scalp goes numb!
When he led everyone into the small town talking and laughing, Tang En calmly pulled Joshua over and lowered his voice: "Remember, no matter what happens later, don't stay three feet away from me."
"Josiah couldn't help but be startled when he heard this, but his expression returned to normal in an instant, but the smile at the corner of his mouth was slightly suppressed, and he whispered: "Is there a problem?"
"There may be a problem. Don't worry, I will always be by your side."
"kindness."
"Josiah nodded lightly and didn't say anything else. He just squeezed Tang En's palm with a little force and then let go. Tang En responded with a reassuring smile, and then with a slight step, he approached the military commander Frey and the military logistics chief Fei Rui respectively, and also whispered a few words
Everything was done inadvertently, without disturbing anyone. Even the senior generals of the Gray Army who were very close at hand did not notice this detail at all in their excitement.
This is the so-called difference between closeness and distance. Tang En has no conflicts with these high-level generals. They also talk happily when they meet and have a good relationship. But if you really want to count them all, it is natural that Josiah, Frey, and Ferry are the three closest to them.
So, it¡¯s not nice to say it. If something goes wrong at the venue later, Tang En will only save these three people immediately. As for the rest, I'm sorry, I can only wait and see if there is a suitable time to take action
¡¡
at this time,
Just when Josiah and others entered the north gate of Hongfeng Town, more than a hundred kilometers away, in a large city's remote transmission tower, a slightly bloated figure holding a spear stepped out of the door and raised his head. , looking at the bleak sun hanging slanting in the sky, narrowed his eyes and pursed his lips: "We finally arrived."
After a slight pause, he waved his hand to the dozens of knights who were following behind with solemn faces, and ordered, "Determine the location of the temporary small teleportation array, and then find horses each. Next, we have to go at full speed"
"Horse riding? But my lord, your body"
Waving his hand, "It doesn't matter, I know what I know, I won't ask" He paused for a moment, his slightly bloated figure trembled slightly, and subconsciously lowered his hand to caress his lower abdomen, raising the corners of his mouth slightly, "You can't wait, can you? Haha, okay Well, then let¡¯s go save that bastard guy together¡¡±
