Shangguan Xue told Perseus all the internal information she knew without reservation. Perseus was not a man who broke his word. He did not give up and allowed Shangguan siblings to stay in Twilight City to follow Kino.

If you continue to perform meritorious service in the next war, you will be rewarded again.

This result undoubtedly made Shangguan Xue breathe a sigh of relief. Now at least he didn't have to worry about ownership issues and could focus entirely on the war.

This war involves three parties - the Doguland Kingdom, the Far Eastern Dynasty, and the desert forces.

The Far Eastern Dynasty wanted to use the name of revenge for its grandson Ye Lingchen to raise troops to annex the desert and form a strategic suppression on the Doguland border.

Doguland hopes that the desert will maintain its status quo, that is, it will not be recovered by the royal army, nor occupied by the Far Eastern Dynasty, but will exist as an independent force and become a buffer barrier for Doguland's eastern defense line.

In this kind of game, the desert forces caught in the middle have become the key. Whichever side they lean towards will have a non-negligible impact on the strategic goals of the other side.

Therefore, when Perseus decided to raise troops to attack, he had already sent envoys to the desert in advance and invited the leader of the desert forces, the "Holy Lord of the Desert", to come for discussions.

On the fifth day after the kingdom's army entered the Beacon Province, a desert envoy entered the kingdom's border and rushed to the Dusk City where Perseus was located at starry night.

The woman at the head of the mission was the Holy Lord of the Desert, Huerlit, who had been entrenched in the desert for many years and united all the nomadic tribes.

Hu Erlit is wearing an exotic-style desert robe. The top only covers her chest and neck, while her waist and abdomen are vaguely covered by a gauze. Her curves are hazy. The sleeves and skirt are extremely long with gold embroidery, and they look like flowing clouds when she walks.

, the fiery red silk hood half-covered the jade face, and only those beautiful, penetrating eyes could be seen.

Perseus did not bring many people with him when he met with the leader of Hurrit, only Bolton and Kino, and Hurrit only brought two tribe members, Dadan, with him.

When several people met in the conference hall, the atmosphere seemed a bit delicate, especially Bolton and Hurrit. The two had a fierce fight in the desert last year and had a blood feud. They wanted to eat each other alive, and now they want to do it again.

Sit down calmly and discuss cooperation. This change is somewhat embarrassing.

The embarrassment didn't end there. A Dadan next to Hurrit stared at Kino, his eyes filled with hatred and anger, and said viciously: "It's him! Kino Van Helsing! He killed me."

I lost my brother Shan Wule! He was my most beloved relative and friend, a brother and sister!"

Qino suddenly felt a little helpless. This world is very big, but small is really small. He had just arrived in Xilin Town, and the horse bandit Dadan named "Shan Ule" whom he planned to kill actually had such a younger brother.

, and it just so happened that we met at this meeting... What should I say, enemies on the same road?

Perseus's reaction was very calm. He should have expected this kind of unexplainable situation. He raised his hand, and the imperial guard carried a box. After opening it, he saw that it was filled with precious jewelry. He said lightly: "

The past is in the past, how about writing it off?"

When Dadan saw so many jewels, his eyes widened and he couldn't hide the smile on his face. He completely forgot about being an elder brother or not. However, he still had a sense of master-slave and did not make his own decisions.

, but secretly looked at Hurrit, waiting for her reply.

Hurrit did not look at the box of jewels and said coldly: "King Perseus is thinking too hastily if he wants to use a box of jewels to resolve old and new grudges. Of course, I agree to put aside the past for the time being.

Chapter, because now there are more difficult things to deal with."

"Doguland and the Far Eastern Dynasty are at war. On the surface, it is because of the death of the emperor's grandson. But secretly, they are fighting for the important land of the desert. And the forces of the desert under my command are the objects of your struggle. Who will you turn to?

It took the initiative.”

"I don't like beating around the bush, so we might as well get down to business - you want the desert forces to side with Doguland in the war, so the question is, what leverage can you give me?"

Perseus said slowly: "I don't think I need to provide any bargaining chips, because the thousands-mile desert itself is the bargaining chip - if Doguland does not send troops, the desert will fall into the hands of the Far East Dynasty, and you, the Holy Lord of the Desert, will become a bereaved dog.

Are you going to sit back and watch this happen?"

Foxurit narrowed her eyes slightly, with a hint of sarcasm in her voice: "King Perseus is really old and slow in thinking. He would take it for granted... Do you think you are the only one trying to win over me?"

Hu Erlit took out a jade silk brocade document from her arms and spread it out on the table. This was clearly the imperial edict of the Far Eastern Dynasty!

Huerlit sneered and said: "The Far Eastern Empire is obviously more sincere than you. Before you sent a messenger to the desert, the Far Eastern Emperor had already ordered someone to send an imperial edict, promising that as long as I am willing to surrender to the imperial court, I can join the "Four-clawed Golden Dragon"

"Pao", all lands were granted borders, and foreign lands were granted the title of king."

Before Perseus could speak, Bolton rolled his eyes and couldn't help but cursed: "You stupid woman, can't you see that this is a delaying tactic? This is an old routine in the Far East. Make a promise first.

I will make you a king and recruit you to the imperial court. When the situation is stable, I will find a reason to reduce your rank and send you to death. People are planning to sell you, but you are still here and you are so proud!"

Hurrit did not feel angry. She could become the Holy Lord of the Desert, unite so many tribes, and her judgment on the situation was extremely sharp. How could she not ignore things that an upright general like Bolton could see?

come out?

However, Huerlett still deliberately sneered and said: "At least the court has shown me enough sincerity. What about you? You brought a box of jewelry. Who are you trying to fool?"

Perseus stretched out his hand to signal to stop, and said silently: "Hurrit, there have been constant disputes between Doguland and the Desert, but your power has always remained strong, which proves that you are a smart man."

"No matter how much you resist, you cannot deny that the desert was once the territory of Doguland, and the blood of the people of the kingdom flows in your body. History has proven countless times that you would rather fight your former compatriots to a bloody head.

Don’t favor foreigners whose hearts are bound to be different from yours.”

"This large-scale invasion of the Far Eastern Dynasty not only threatens your power, but also threatens the regime of Doguland. It seems that you can mediate on both sides, but in fact you have no choice at all. You can only stand on the side of the kingdom, and you will inevitably

Stand with the Kingdom."

When Perseus said this, he spread his hands and said in a very frank tone: "Of course, everyone is working on their own, and I don't want to just tell you some empty principles. It's unrealistic to ask you to help us for free.
