Chapter 633: A harmonious negotiation

Kant had already organized his words before he met the Elf King, so it was expected that such a situation would occur.

He smiled at the Elf King and said, “Elf King, thank you for your understanding. I will definitely send out the best Swadian Sergeants in Drondheim! They have obtained excellent evolution in their equipment a few days ago. I believe that they will definitely be able to resist the attacks of the undead soldiers. You have no doubt about that!”

“Oh, no, no, no.” The Elf King was obviously not very satisfied with Kant’s words. He immediately stood up, then, he announced to Kant with a heavy tone, “Lord Kant, I hope that you can send out the Virgil knights. What we lack even more are the vanguard troops that can charge into the front lines!”

“Your Excellency!” Kant’s expression became very serious. “Do you want my soldiers to take the lead? So that you can sit at the back and reap the benefits? Isn’t that a little unkind?”

Kant looked ahead. The Virgil knights were the sharpest and most core force of the Drondheim city-state. If more than a thousand Virgil knights were sent out, it would cause the attack line of the Drondheim city-state to become very weak, this was not a good omen for Drondheim, which was surrounded by enemies.

He knew how to weigh the pros and cons. Although he was anxious to complete the mission of the system, it was obviously very foolish to sacrifice so many sharpest troops to complete the mission. No one would agree to such a deal!

“Lord Kant, that’s not what I meant?” The Elf King might have seen Kant’s face gradually turn gloomy, he explained to Kant in a panic, “If you are willing to send out these 1,000 Virgil Knights, our elven colony can even give up 15% of our territory. You must know that with an additional 5% of our territory, how many more Virgil knights can you train? I think you will be the biggest winner in such a deal!”

The Elf King was good at negotiating, and he was more convincing than the last elven messenger.

But what did Kant think?

He did not feel how wonderful the world was for such conditions, but began to wonder what the Elf King’s purpose was?

No matter how small a piece of territory was, it was still a part of a country that could not be separated. However, the Elf King’s tone was as if he could give up as much as he wanted at any time!

“Elf King, please allow me to think for four hours. You can visit the back garden of our royal palace. I will have a more in-depth meeting with my ministers!”

Kant waved his hand to signal the people around him to lead the Elf King away.

The Elf King stood up, he bowed respectfully to Kant. “Respected Lord Kant, you may carry on your profound discussion, but please try to give me a timely reply within four hours. After all, the elven colonies are still suffering from the flames of war!”

His respectful and sincere attitude almost made Kant forget that he was the leader of a city-state.

What was his intention? Kant really wanted to know, at least now he knew that he would not simply send troops to attack the undead soldiers.

Did the elven colony make other deals with other city-states?

Logically speaking, the Lizardmen city-state should be the first choice for the elven colony.

Kant had never felt such a headache, but he still could not understand the purpose of the elven colony.

In the center of the palace was a ten-meter-long conference table, which was enough to accommodate more than a hundred ministers.

Drondheim was a democratic city-state, and Kant was very willing to accept the speeches of the wise men, so in addition to the ministers appearing in front of the conference table, many wandering wise men were also absorbed by Kant.

After listening to Kant’s story, those people fell into deep thought. What on earth was the Elf King willing to pay for such a huge price in exchange for a thousand cavalry?

Commander Spock nodded, indicating to Kant that he wanted to speak.

“Please answer my question, Commander Spock!” Kant smiled at him.

Commander Spock bowed politely and cleared his throat, then he continued, “Lord Kant, I think this may be the elven colony’s plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain. They want to transfer the elite troops of Drondheim city-state. Perhaps they have joined forces with other city-states to attack Drondheim!”

Kant nodded at Spock. What Spock said was not without reason. He had also thought of this idea before, but he had rejected it!

“Commander Spock, this is indeed possible!”

Kant first praised Spock’s idea, but he continued, “But the elven colonies have long been unable to fend for themselves. I think they have no reason to join forces with other city-states to attack us. They also want our thousand heavy cavalries to continue their lives. If that is really the case, we can withdraw the heavy cavalry. In that case, the elven colony will be destroyed by the undead soldiers in less than three days. Do you think I am right?”

Kant said patiently, and Commander Spock nodded. He downed the wine in front of him, and then said to Kant, “The leader is right, I was thinking too simply!”

Another old city-state man with a white beard to his waist said, “Lord Kant, I think the elven colony may want to merge with our Drondheim. To the territory of the country, to them, it is no longer that important. I believe that if we win this battle, the Elf King will definitely look for you to merge with the elven colony. After all, the elven colony is a colony, and it has not been liberated, so merging with Drondheim is the most effective way. As for the Elf King, I’m afraid he only wants a position!”

The old man’s words made Kant think. He had not thought of such a possibility, but in a sense, it was possible.

So should he send troops or not? Kant wavered. He signaled for everyone to vote on it.

There were a total of 132 people who came to the meeting. 83 people agreed to send troops to the elven colony, which was the majority.

Kant believed in the decision of the ministers, which was also the decision in his heart.

Although the number of 1,000 Virgil knights was huge, it was not enough to put Drondheim into a passive situation in an instant. Even if there were any conflicts in the future, Drondheim would be able to hold on until the return of this powerful cavalry.

Kant had already made his decision. He met with the Elf King in the back garden.

The Elf King was looking at the goldfish in the pond. Those were not ordinary goldfish.
