Chapter 221 What Can I Get
The appearance of the elves caused a small disturbance in the camp, but it eventually calmed down.
After all, she was brought back by Hardy.
And Hadi's prestige in the army is extremely high.
Let alone bringing the elves back, even if they knew that Hardy was having an affair with Sissy Jeanne, they would not find it strange at all. Instead, they would try their best to hide the matter.
After all, in the eyes of almost all the soldiers, Lady Jeanne and Hardy were so matched.
As for Madame Jeanne’s unknown archbishop husband, they didn’t agree.
After placing the elves, Hardy sat down and began to deal with military affairs.
Not long after, the messenger from New York City was transported down from the city wall in a hanging basket and came to Hardy to ask for an audience.
Hardy received him in his tent.
"Tea, please." Hardy was drinking tea. When he saw a guest coming, he naturally had to offer him a cup.
"Ah... thank you." The messenger felt a little flattered. He bent down slightly to take the tea, took a sip, and said with a smile: "It is indeed delicious."
This is the tea that Philaire gave to Hadi not long ago. It tastes really good.
"Your Excellency Hardy, this time I have brought an order from the Senate." The messenger put down the cup in his hand and said: "They hope that you can withdraw the army five kilometers, let go of the city gate, and Go to the Senate and prove your innocence in front of all the senators, saying that you did not kill Blanche."
Hardy smiled: "Do you think it is possible?"
"Of course, this is a superficial order." The messenger continued: "You can find a few substitutes to solve this matter. We are just going through the motions. And Arianna Rommel wants to talk to you personally."< br>
This was the same person who served as the messenger last time. Hardy gave him a gold coin and asked him to hand over the Kamaz-Rommel note to the Rommel family, and this person did so.
"Where to meet?"
The messenger subconsciously lowered his voice and said: "His Excellency Rommel means that in order to show his sincerity, he is willing to disguise himself and come to visit you personally, provided that you The army has to open a gate, otherwise he can't get out."
"This is easy to do. I will ask Ximen's army to retreat later." Hadi nodded.
If they want to talk, they can talk. It doesn't matter how they talk. Anyway, Hardy just wants to buy time.
He blocked New York City just to buy time.
As for siege...it's impossible.
Such a big city needs at least two to three thousand defenders, and Hadi has about five thousand men, so it cannot be defeated.
After the messenger finished delivering the message, he left happily.
Soon, the French army west of New York City retreated one kilometer.
But even so, the city gate did not dare to be opened at will.
In the evening, the city gate was finally raised, and after two people and two horses came out, it was quickly closed again.
The two men and two horses soon arrived outside the camp, and were then taken into it by the soldiers.
Hadi sat in the handsome tent, looked at the two middle-aged men in front of him, and asked aloud: "I am Hadi, the Lord of Hukaro. May I ask your names?"
"Arianna Rommel." The older middle-aged man nodded slightly and said.
"Tekli-Teutonic." The younger man smiled.
"Please sit down."
Hardy asked them to sit on the carpet and poured them a cup of tea.
Although the two were surprised by the taste of the tea, they also behaved calmly.
After they all took two or three sips, Arianna said: "Your Excellency Hardy, we are here just to talk to you."
"What to talk about and how to talk about it?" Hardy asked straightforwardly road. "Your Excellency seems to have a lot of objections to our Council of Elders." Tekeli Teutonic looked at Hardy and said helplessly: "The Council of Elders just wants you to prove yourself and has no intention of harming you."
Hardy shook his head and said: "I brought If an army of five thousand comes, you will certainly not, nor dare, harm me at will. If I really come with only a few guards, then you will probably have that idea."
"No. Is that possible? We still want to save face." Tekeli Teutonic waved his hands vigorously.
Hardy smiled and was noncommittal.
Face is something you can only have if others give it to you. If they don’t give it to you, that’s it!
"Your Excellency Hardy, are you really unwilling to testify yourself?" Tekeli Teutonic said: "The interrogator should have said that it was just a formality, and a substitute can be used, and it will definitely not cause any harm to you. Hurt and danger."
Hardy smiled: "Self-certification? Whether it's a substitute or not, as long as I am. If we go and prove ourselves, it means that we are guilty. Madame Jeanne and I are indeed fine, but Francie’s reputation will be ruined, and the reputation of Jeanne’s family will be ruined. You have a good plan!”
< br>Originally, the two of them wanted to bully Hardy when they saw that he was so young. However, they were directly exposed and felt extremely embarrassed.
"You two, please go back." Hardy waved his hand.
"Your Excellency, we come with sincerity, please don't be impulsive." Arianna Rommel said urgently.
Hadi waved his hand and said seriously: "I can't see sincerity, and I also harbor evil intentions. Please go back, otherwise don't go back."
Looking at the already angry Hadi, the two of them People had no choice but to leave.
After the two left, Hardy showed a weird smile.
After the two returned, France's army once again blocked the west gate.
Hardy continued to handle military affairs, during which Mrs. Sissi also came over once. After the two got tired of each other for a while, she left again.
I have to say that the radiant Mrs. Sissi is charming and lovely.
It was late at night, and a man and a horse came out of the west city gate, but Francis' army turned a blind eye.
Soon this man came to France's camp and met Hardy.
"Please drink tea, Your Excellency Rommel." Hardy placed another cup of tea in front of the other party and said with a smile: "During the day, please cooperate with me in my drama."
"It's okay, if If the guy from Trik Teutonic is not there, why bother?" Ariana shook his head and said with a smile: "Then we can talk about something serious."
Hardy nodded.
"Your Excellency should know that in our Aijaka Empire, the Council of Elders holds all the power, but there are too many people in the Council of Elders, making it difficult to implement many decrees."
Hear Here, Hardy raised his eyebrows.
He vaguely guessed what the other party wanted to say.
Sure enough!
Arianna continued: "I envy powerful countries like France and Kaldor. I also hope that Aijaka can have such a powerful royal family instead of a group of flies lingering on it. Sitting, arguing with each other, wasting time and energy. I want Aijaka to become a true empire."
Hadi looked at Ariana, He tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and then asked: "There will be many elders. How many families do you have to kill to do it?"
"Although there are many people, they are actually divided into subdivisions. , that is, eleven families, descendants, cousins, and cousins, eleven families have divided up almost all the elder seats. I want to kill some and exile others.”
Arianna Rommel stared hard into Hardy's eyes, his body trembling slightly.
No way, this is a huge gamble.
But it is also the only chance.
Now... there are only two thousand defenders in New York City, and the city guards on the west gate are from Rommel's army.
As long as he is willing, this city will be undefended to France's army.
The air was stagnant, and Hardy lowered his head and thought for a long time.
Then he looked up and asked: "What can France gain, and what can I gain?"
