At the south gate of Kodor City, with the order of the city guarding knights above the city wall, the gate was opened with the joint force of four soldiers. Then, the soldiers of the Wells Legion walked towards the city under the leadership of Count Kodor himself, and Yat and others rode behind Count Kodor into the city.

Soldiers continued to pour in outside the South City Gate, and the team extended from the South City Gate to the center of Kodor City.

Seeing the neat and majestic army walking along the way, sporadic pedestrians on the street avoided them. After hearing the movements outside, the residents on both sides of the street also carefully opened the windows and looked out...

Of course, in sharp contrast to the careful horror of ordinary civilians are those women who slowly walked out of the "Medieval Moor" next to the road. Their exposed clothes and extremely flattering eyes all indicate that the harvest season is coming...

"Hans, look, the women here are so beautiful than the other." Looking at the woman who was flattering the soldiers walking in the middle of the street at the entrance of the Moulin Rouge, Bury's eyes were wider than the bell.

"You kid, you want to squander the war reward you just received on these women again." Hans knew this guy Bury. Every time he got the reward, he either went to find women or lost all his bets with the guys in the baggage team. He always wanted to find Hans to help him.

"The team behind me follows." While the two were talking, Rig's voice came from behind. Looking back, he saw that all the soldiers at the end of the team had entered the city gate.

…………

"Sir Yat, this is the base of the soldiers of the Wells Legion." When the group came to the square next to the church, Earl of Codor said to Yat. "In the evening, I prepared a dinner for Yat and your officers in the mansion, and asked Yat to attend."

"Thank you for your invitation from the Count, I will definitely visit you."

After saying that, Yat ordered Angus to personally arrange the soldiers of the Wells Army to garrison all the important places in the city, and he took Ron to the already-set central army command camp.

…………

"Quick, the North City Gate will be closed soon~"

On the street leading to the north gate of Kodor, two guys who looked like vendors trotted all the way to the north gate.

At this time, pedestrians entering and leaving the North City Gate were lined up in a long queue for inspection by the soldiers guarding the city. Every day, the gate would close.

"King Master, we are vendors around the city of Kodor, and we are rushing out of the city to sell fur goods here tomorrow. Look, is it okay to be convenient?" As he said that, the vendor fled from his waist and took out a bag of jingling coins and sent them to the soldiers guarding the city.

The soldiers guarding the city looked around, took the purse and stuffed it into the bag around their waists, "Let's go."

"Thank you, Lord Knight, God is with you." Two vendors who had just trotted from the street hurriedly walked out of the door after paying the "toll". At this moment, the soldiers of the Wells Legion who were in charge of taking over the city defense had already walked towards the city gate.

…………

On the trade road a mile outside the north gate of Kodor City, two "hawkers" who had just left the city turned back and looked at the city gate. At this time, the soldiers of the Wells Legion stationed at the city defense were already standing on the city wall.

"It's so dangerous, I almost couldn't get out." said one of the vendors.

"Come on, hurry back to Thorne and report to the Count, Earl Codor has surrendered to the Wells Legion."

"Okay, go."

On the business road, two figures walked all the way to the north...

…………

In the hall of the Count of Cordoor City, looking at the seated Yat and a few senior officers of the Wells Legion, Earl Kodor, who was sitting in the main seat of the hall, stood up and reached out to signal everyone to calm down.

"Everyone," said Earl Kodor, "Today, I am very happy that Lord Yat and the officers of the Wells Legion will attend this banquet." After that, Earl Kodor nodded politely to Yat and others, and Yat stood up slightly to respond, but Odo and several senior officers were unmoved.

"Today, we will not talk about other issues. I have someone prepared excellent wine and food, and I only want to enjoy it with everyone here under the blessing of God. Let us raise the wine glass in our hands and have this glass of friendship." After that, everyone in the hall raised their wine glasses and drank them one after another.

The banquet lasted until midnight. Looking at the good wine and meat in front of him, the officers of the Wells Legion who attended the banquet were not greedy. Ron and his personal guards were always vigilantly observing the whole banquet.

On the contrary, the officials around the count drank and ate meat one by one, enjoying a rare feast.

After the banquet, Yat and others returned to the camp under the sight of Earl Codor.

At noon the next day, Count Kodor's personal bodyguard came to the Wells Legion's headquarters and informed Yat that Count Kodor asked him to discuss the matter. After Yat arranged the legion affairs, he took Angus, Ron and others to the Lord's Hall in the City of Kodor.

When everyone was about to reach the lord's hall, Count Kodor was waiting outside the door, followed by several officers and civil servants.

"My honorable guest, please come in." When Yat walked towards the lord's hall, Earl Kodor quickly met him.

"Good morning, Lord Earl," Yat responded.

"Sir Yat, please come in, everyone." Earl Kodor greeted the group and walked in.

After everyone sat down, Earl Kodor said, "Mr. Att, we will start discussing peace talks now. Do you think?"

"I wish to follow the arrangements of the Count," Yat said politely. Such a literary style made Yat get goosebumps. As a military man who has been fighting abroad for many years, he had already left those noble etiquettes behind him. If it weren't for dealing with this guy, he wouldn't have been lazy to say so much nonsense.

"Sir Yat, let me first talk about my conditions for this peace talks." Earl Kodor cleared his throat and said.

"Please speak with lie."

"First, during the time of the Wells Army in Cordore, do not leave the station at will, do not harass the residents of the city, and do not rob property, kill and set fire."

"Second, you must not stay in the city for more than three days. After three days, you can leave and go north to Thorne."

"Third, you cannot pursue the casualties and losses caused by the Kodor army's attack on Fort Marsey. This is my condition."

"I would like to ask the Earl, after the army heads north and leaves the city, will you join forces with the Thorne army from the north to attack the Wells Legion?" Yat asked.

"This ~ Honorable Viscount, I am willing to guarantee the honor of the nobles that I will never attack the Wells Legion again." Earl Kodor quickly explained.

"Sir Earl, I am not a two or three-year-old child. Now wars in Bo Kingdom are everywhere. If I handed over the rear of the Wells Legion into your hands with your words, I am afraid the officers around me will not agree." As he said that, Yat turned around and looked at the people behind him.

"Mr. Att, you and I are both nobles of the country of Bo, and they all have the honor that nobles should have. If you had not guaranteed that you would not burn, kill, loot after entering the city with the reputation of the noble, I would never have let you enter the city." Earl Kodor was already a little angry at this time.

Yat looked at Earl Kodor and continued, "Sir, you think your army can't resist the attack of the Wells Legion at all."

"This~" Earl of Codor stopped arguing.

"As far as I know, the city of Kodor has more than 530 troops, including your Earl Guard and the guards of the mansion. Moreover, Kodor is located in a plain area and has no danger to defend. It only takes two days to turn this place into a tomb." Yat's tone was a little threatened.

At this time, cold sweat had already oozed out of Count Kodor's forehead. He did not expect that this guy had already figured out the situation in Kodor City. If he had really started fighting, he would have become the prisoner of that guy.

"Sir Earl, let me talk about my conditions now. First, after the army leaves the city, the important defense areas of the Cordoor City and the surrounding important posts will be stationed by soldiers of the Wells Legion. When the army's war is over, they will return to the Cordoor City again. If any accident occurs in the Wells Legion soldiers stationed here during this period, I think the Count knows the consequences." Yat stared at Earl Cordoor.

"Second, the province of Kodor immediately issued an announcement to swear allegiance to the new king Flander, leave the court of Thorne, and declare Bernard a traitor." After that, Yat glanced at Earl Codor and continued, "Sir, this is my condition."

At this time, Count Kodor said nothing and just sat there quietly.

"Sir Count~Sir Count." The officer beside him saw that Earl Kodor did not say a word, leaned into his ear to remind him.

"That ~ Lord Yat, I understand your conditions." Earl Kodor was unable to deal with Yat, a cunning and fierce guy. "I promised your conditions."

"Okay! Lord Earl can think about the overall situation, and the new king will definitely not treat you badly in the future. But~" Yat was always on guard against the guy in front of him.

"I wonder what conditions there are for Lord Yat."

"I heard that the Count has two sons." Yat looked up at Earl Cole.

"This~ Lord Yat means~~" Earl Kodor suddenly became nervous.

"I mean, ask the two sons of the Earl to go to the expedition of Thorne with me. This will not only show the loyalty of the Earl to the New Lord, but also allow the two sons of the Earl to be trained in our army and contribute to the New Lord in the future. Of course, I guarantee their safety." Yat explained his intention to Earl Kodor.

Earl Kodor knew very well that he wanted to take his two sons as hostages and ensure that the rear of the Wells Legion would not be threatened.

In order to show Yat that he no longer supports Thorne's court, Earl Kodor decided to "take an oath" on the spot.

"Go and invite the noble guests." Earl of Codor turned around and gave a few instructions to the knights beside him, and the knight walked out of the door of the lord's hall.

Soon, the knight brought a prisoner-like man up.

"Kneel down!" The knight kicked the guy to the ground.

"Sir, you are~" Yat looked at the prisoner in front of him, not understanding the intention of Earl Kodor.

"Lord Yat, this is the special envoy sent by the old man Bernard. I want me to continue to resist the Wells Legion, but I locked up. There is also a private message from him here." As he said that, Count Kodor handed the letter to Yat.

"Sir Earl, you will show me this letter before you even opened it. I'm afraid it's not suitable." Yat said to Earl Kodor when he saw the fire paint was preserved intact.

"Mr. Ate, isn't this a sign of my sincerity?" Earl Kodor continued.

"Since the Count trusts me so much, I'm not polite." Yat took apart the hot paint on the sheepskin and looked at the contents. It was nothing more than the words Bernard promised to give Count Kodor after the war. After reading it, Yat handed the sheepskin to Count Kodor. Count Kodor threw the sheepskin aside without even looking at it.

"Sir Yat, see what this guy should do." When Earl Kodor mentioned the guy kneeling on the ground, the special envoy of Thorne's court, who had been detained for several days, was quickly begging for mercy.

"This is the prisoner of Lord Earl, of course you should decide it yourself."

"Okay! Then I'll cut off his head and ask Lord Yat to bring it to the old thing Bernard. This will also show my attitude." Earl Kodor said and winked at the knights beside him.

"No, sir, don't kill me~" Just as the envoy was begging for mercy, the knight had drawn out his sword. With a shout, the guy's head had rolled to the ground, and blood columns were still emitting from his broken neck. Then the knight wrapped his head in linen.

Looking at the corpse on the ground, Earl Kodor looked at Yat and others again, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Sir Yat, please hand over this head to that old guy Bernard for me."

"Sir Earl, I'm willing to serve you." Looking at the blood flowing on the ground, Yat signaled Ron to take the head.

"Mr. Att, please make sure to agree to me." Earl Kodor asked.

"Please speak with lie."

"My two sons have never been to the battlefield. If they are with you, please be sure to guarantee their lives." Earl Kodor knew that this time he had to sacrifice his two sons' personal freedom to exchange for the safety of the entire Kodor city and his life.

"Please rest assured, Count. I will send someone to protect them until the army returns to the city of Kodor." Yat promised Count Kodor.

"Okay! I am willing to provide the army of Lord Yat's army with 200,000 Finney's military funds and 50,000 pounds of food and supplies as a support for your military expenditure to attack Thorne."

Hearing Earl Codol say this, Yat felt secretly happy and hurriedly thanked. The servants behind him were also full of surprises.

Everyone knows that Kodor Province is rich, but they didn't expect that it would be 200,000 Finny and 50,000 pounds of food. It's no wonder Bernard wanted to win over Count Kodor to his side. If it were him, he would also hope to get this money tree.

After the peace talks were reached, Yat took his group out of the lord's hall. Before leaving, he told Count Kodor that he would send someone to pick up Count Kodor's two sons tomorrow.
