There is a town in the north called Red Maple.

As the name suggests, this town located between the Gray-Clothed Army and the Renau River is surrounded by large maple leaves. Especially in autumn, the maple leaves are dyed and red like clouds, which is magnificent and dreamy. Therefore, it is named Red Maple Town.

The town itself is very ordinary and inconspicuous. Such towns are as numerous as cows in the north, and there are countless, and the number is only smaller than that of the farmhouses of the lower level.

However, in the near future, this small town, which is slightly deserted due to the influence of the war, will be destined to be famous in history!

Because, the official negotiation location between the Gray Clothes Army and the Bran Empire is here!

Now, to the north of the town, on a stone wall of about two feet high. Tang En faced the cold wind in the late winter, holding the wall stack, first carefully observed the overall layout of the town, then narrowed his narrow eyes, looked around, and looked at the surrounding hills and streams.

After a while, he asked softly: "You said, is there any problem with the negotiation location I chose?"

There are naturally answers when there are questions. But David, Luke and others on the side looked at each other when they heard this, a little confused, and a little shocked.

The time and location of this negotiation were decided by the Gray Clothes Army. In other words, Tang En had the final say. This is not surprising. It concerns the personal safety of Joshia and the senior executives of the Gray Clothes Army. This work can only be taken by Tang Enlai, and he is the only one who has the qualifications.

Everyone, including David and other members of the gray space, believes that with Don Eun's ability, he can easily see through whatever tricks Bran plays and ensure everyone's safety. But now,

David stared at Tang En, who was frowning slightly, and hesitated: "Boss... Are there any problems here?"

"I don't know. I just don't feel good." The strength level has reached the level of Tang En. He has an almost instinctive sensing and prediction of danger and evil thoughts. But now the problem lies here. He decided the negotiation time and the location was also chosen. Now the on-site inspection has not been found. And logic is that Bran is in such a mess now, and he really can't afford to play tricks. You must know that once you fail, no matter whether the gray-clothed army is willing to join forces with the tribal army, they will inevitably insist on finding the place and attacking Bran's south...

Everything is showing that there should be no tricks in this negotiation. But Tang En's intuition is not very good. Thinking of Lansha's previous reminder and the seemingly meaningless stalemate on Bran's side over the past week, Tang En felt even worse...

In silence, a little noise came from behind him with the wind. The group turned around and saw a large group of carriages and horses driving in from the south of the town. As soon as Putian came in, elite cavalry wearing standard armor quickly dispersed around and controlled all entrances and exits of the town. Then a long row of vehicles on the middle road arrived directly at the central square of the town. After a short moment, the visitor negotiated with the town officials, and began to unload a large number of wooden boards, fabrics, and even statue potted plants from the car...

This group of unexpected uninvited guests and this stance of building a large-scale construction did not surprise Tang En and others. In the present north, without the permission of the gray-clothed army, these Bran cavalry obviously from the south would not have been able to come here swaggeringly.

Now this is the advance force of the Bran negotiation team, who greeted the Grey-Clothed Army. The reason why we came here was to ensure the personal safety of the second prince and a group of members of Congress who arrived in the next few days. Just as the Grey-Clothed Army did not believe in the Bran Empire, the Bran negotiation team, who now penetrated the tiger's den, obviously did not trust the Grey-Clothed Army. As for the second reason, it was to build a grand venue worthy of the important negotiations in the future.

By the way, the negotiation location of the town chosen by Tang En is obviously a local style in the Bran Negotiation Team. Like the gray-clothed army's own temperament, they are all low-quality goods...

Of course, the gray-clothed army also despised Bran's approach.

"Bah, the losers must have the awareness of the losers. What's wrong now is like they have won a battle..." Seeing this, David disagreed and curled his lips, "A group of idiots who want to save face!"

"Haha, it's right to take face, but they are not idiots. David, do you believe it? After this negotiation, Brannan's newspaper must have written this way... The Empire built a grand venue for hosting and awarded the gray-clothed army Balabara..."

"Ha, it makes sense. In this way, the people of the southern people definitely do not think that we had defeated the empire, but that the empire that is above us sees us pitiful, so we are kind and rewarded..."

"Hmph! The clown looks..."

Some things are not right or wrong. Even if they are false propaganda, in the eyes of the Bran Empire, as long as it is beneficial to maintain the prestige of Wang Ting, they will definitely do it. However, starting from scratch and paying more attention to actual gray-clothed military personnel are obviously disdainful of this approach.

"Okay." Waving your hand stopped everyone from despising and mocking. Tang En turned to look at Harry, "The scale of the cavalry, the identity of the workers, etc. have been confirmed? Have you sent people to monitor them one by one?"

"Don't worry, boss, all the members of the gray space have been sent in." Harry nodded confidently, "It's just such a big place, no matter where they go, they will not leave our sight. As long as you are willing, I will report to you the color of their leading underwear tomorrow."

"Stop talking nonsense." Tang En pointed to the various materials that were constantly unloaded from the car in the distance and said solemnly, "You have to take a few people to be supervisors these days. Be careful. No matter what method you use, you must make sure that there is no problem with each material. Well, you can take a sample to prevent explosive crystals from hiding in the wooden blocks... If you encounter obstacles, you can kill people and demonstrate directly!"

"Okay." Harry nodded without saying a word when he heard this, and pointed a few people and stepped down the city wall and ran towards the center of the town.

After a moment of pause, Tang En said again, "David, have you seen the mountains and hills dozens of miles away? Take someone to search the carpet. If you don't find anything, leave someone to continue monitoring... Luke, you take someone to the small river at the east end of the town. Search the same carpet to ensure that everything is foolproof..."

"yes!"

As the call was heard one after another, everyone around him instantly disappeared, going their separate ways, leaving only a cold little Carol holding a sickle.

Tang En has made a sacrifice this time. Since he is uncertain about the source of his intuition, he can only catch all possible dangers in one go and minimize the risk factor.

This is a stupid method, and it is also the best method.

"Let's go and see the Bran person with your own eyes." Tang En pondered for a while, and took Little Carol's little man and got down the city wall.

"Did you worry about the hidden masters inside?"

"Ha, what a joke, your brother is now the most powerful person in the mainland, and there is no expert in his eyes... Well, it is not a solution to continue to investigate like this. I am going to find a small leader. Let's have a good exchange..."

"It's just a questioning. Then I promised me that I'll force me to confess later."

"...David, come back to me! How did you teach me-"

...

...

The so-called negotiations focus on methods and techniques.

When both sides have similar strengths and have a certain foundation, the bargaining process will not be brought to the table.

For example, in this negotiation, regarding details such as war reparations, Joshia did not need to meet with the second prince of the Empire, and the two sides had already started negotiations and discussions from a distance. When the meeting was formally met, it was just a formality and signed an agreement. There was no need to be a gong in person, and the other side would waste their talk and could be finalized soon.

Judging from the current situation where both sides have entered the negotiation location of this town, the negotiations and discussions between the senior executives of the gray-clothed army, including Joshia and the Bran negotiation team led by the second prince of the Empire, were undoubtedly very smooth and had officially entered the actual contact stage.

I think in the near future, this major negotiation, which is enough to change the mainland pattern in a sense, will be held as scheduled...

But, is everything really going so smoothly?

At this time, the eastern coastline area.

A certain building is so simple, but fortunately it is in front of the church with a large area.

"Master Knight."

"Mr. Owens is back from extermination of the bandits?"

"Hey, sir, your mouth is injured?"

There were a lot of people entering and leaving the church gate, but they were all coming and going in a hurry and were very busy. When I looked up and saw an acquaintance, I greeted him. If my mind was not on this, it would be okay to ignore him. It was just that when the knights guarded the gate saw the adults coming, they saw the other party's bruised corners of their mouths and screamed in surprise, which attracted the attention of everyone around them.

"It's okay, cough cough... Liunian is not good. The location of the Broken Mountain Village is too remote. After searching for a few days, I was accidentally sucked by the branches when I was doing it... Hiss..." Owens waved his hand to respond to everyone's concern and greetings. He was wearing mottled armor and a little embarrassed. He covered the corner of his mouth with the other hand and replied vaguely.

"Oh, Master Thomas seems to have not left yet. You can go to that simple treatment."

"Yeah, thank you." Nodded thanking the care of the goalkeeper, Owens was about to enter the church after stepping, but then his legs were suddenly in the air, retracted, turned to look at the ordinary carriage on the open space beside the church, and was stunned, "Hey, Xia Wei's carriage is not here... she went out? Oh, did she go to the south to chat and play with the little nun Cindy?"

Thinking that he had guessed the answer, Owens shook his head helplessly, "This woman can't stay idle for a moment. She doesn't even look at her current physical condition. Can she run around?"

"It shouldn't be going to the south..." The gatekeeper looked a little hesitant when he heard this, and hesitated, "The Lord left the day before yesterday and took a lot of people away. It seemed that he had received some news. He left in a hurry. Well, he took the gun away."

"Bring, bring a gun? Flame gun?" Owens's face changed drastically, and he was angry and anxious, "Another mess! I'm like this, can't she want to fight with someone? I'll go! Hiss... news... where does the news come from?" The excitement touched the injury on the corner of his mouth, and he immediately grinned.

"Uh, I don't know... It seems that it was from the original temple..."

"kindness?!"

The so-called original temple is naturally the former leader of the clergy who established another Protestantism, that is, the Temple of Light in the south of Bran.

Although it is true that they have been betrayed, the two sides are now even more powerful. But after all, they have the same clan and the same origin. The relationship between Protestant members and the temple is naturally very close and connected. This means that Owens and others are two-faced and please the temple. Instead, they will not easily break their relationship with some of the characters and friends in the temple in the past. This is equivalent to the Protestant placing countless spies inside the temple. They have repeatedly avoided the encirclement of the temple and moved the team safely to this place, which is also due to the contributions in this regard...

Hearing that it was news from the temple, Owens's premonition of something bad was even stronger. He didn't bother with the gatekeeper anymore and rushed into the church, broke into Xia Wei'an's house, and soon found the message in the drawer under his desk.

After a rough sweep, he gasped in an instant and slapped his forehead, "Oh, this silly woman!" He rushed out of the door quickly and shouted loudly, "Come here! Hurry up, prepare horses, prepare horses..."

"Owens? Uh, what's so panicked? Haven't you just come back and go out again?" A white-haired old man in a magic robe walked out in the room next to him. Looking at Owens who was impatient, he was stunned and asked in surprise.

"Thomas...oh, Xia Wei'an is in danger! Everyone is coming, where are you dead? Get ready..."

"Dangerous...what is the danger? The temple is going to attack us again?"

"No, it's a man who attacked her, and that silly woman went to save her. Think about her current physical condition and save people? Maybe she would trap herself in and us in. Isn't this a danger... Alas, I can't explain clearly for a while, I'll leave first..." After an incoherent explanation, Owens disappeared into the courtyard.

"Men... save people?" The old white-haired magician was obviously confused and subconsciously murmured, "What does that have to do with us? Isn't it all over to recover Xia Wei'an? She couldn't walk fast again... But then again, who is her man?"

This is the problem.

The old white-haired magician thought Owens was worried that Xia Wei'an's physical condition should not be outside, otherwise it would be easy to have accidents. Little did he know that Owens was not only worried about this, but also worried that once Xia Wei'an had an accident, and when someone knew the inside story, he would really be disregarded and corpses were everywhere...

...

at the same time.

While Owens was in a hurry to lead dozens of white cavalry to run out, a middle-aged man wearing a robe embroidered with a royal pattern in the Royal Castle in Brandu was also sending a kind-looking old priest outside the door.

"...When things are done in the north, I will cooperate immediately in the castle... In short, please give me everything."

The old clergyman nodded reservedly and chuckled slightly, saying, "Don't worry, Your Highness, Your Highness, Oh, no, I will call His Majesty the King in a few days, haha... The temple will always stand on your side, and there will be no accidents in the north. Those rioters and rioters will eventually be unable to escape the end of being wiped out under the sanction of God of Father... Well, but the Second Prince may also..."

"It's okay." The middle-aged man, the eldest prince, waved his hand expressionlessly, "My younger brother has never been against me. Since he wants to get close to the thugs and rioters, let's help him and send them down together!"

The old clergyman laughed and nodded, signaling his understanding, and then asked again: "The Pope is still concerned about Wu Ding's problem. I wonder what the eldest prince is going to deal with him?"

"The Sword God cannot move." The eldest prince blurted out, and then realized the rigid relationship between the power represented by the person in front of him and Woodin. After a moment of silence, he added another sentence, "At least, it cannot move for the time being. Woodin's safety has a huge impact, which is related to the morale of the Bran Kingdom. Once he has problems at this time, it will be extremely unfavorable for me and your temple."

"Understand, I will convey the attitude of the eldest prince to the Pope, and I believe that the Pope will make a wise decision."

"So, thank you!"

Nodding again, the old clergyman chuckled and turned to leave.

"Hu..." After the back of the old clergyman disappeared, the eldest prince suddenly breathed a long sigh and looked up at the north. It was his younger brother, the second prince, where he was now. He paused for a moment, then turned to look at the center of Wangting Castle, which was his father, the old king's bedroom.

His face gradually became cold and hummed, "One is old and stupid, the other is childish and innocent... You have completely forgotten the thousand-year glory of the royal family and the Bran Empire. You only want to live a life of silence and not enterprising! In this way, why not let me replace you and lead the empire to the peak of glory again!"
