Chapter 732 (2/2)
”If we drag on like this, sooner or later they will come to the door; instead, we might as well take the initiative to call... A big surprise to these barbarians!”
Shrugging his shoulders, a smile flashed across Lauren's face.
Archduke Laszlo Varna closed his eyes and closed his mouth tightly under his white beard, as if he were still struggling in the end.
Finally, he sighed heavily; Raise your head and stare at Lauren:
”How confident and confident are you?”
It sounds like one, but there are two problems.
”Only half sure, not much confidence.” Loren shook his head. ”But there is nothing absolute on the battlefield - the more cautious every place is, the more mistakes will be.”
”Half sure... I think this is a feasible plan!”
The dark haired wizard took it for granted.
The old man nodded slightly and finally made up his mind.
His original purpose was to use the name of the alliance to make this young Duke with little reputation and confidence unconditionally support himself - relying on Byrne's support and reputation, he could save his face from defeat and curb the uncontrolled Boyle collar.
But... Now that the other side has made it clear, Duke Varna can only accept the alliance condition of ”equal cooperation” - as the little wizard said, in this war, he is in urgent need of assistance, not Loren.
Losing Boye, Byrne became an ordinary principality, and Loren abdicated to Charlotte; Without Byrne, the boy and Warner families risk subjugation... The best result is to be taken over by the Empire and become a ”semi vassal” principality like eboden.
The strength and current situation of both sides determine that he has no choice, and Loren has a choice, which is so simple.

”Great.”
Seeing off Archduke Varna and Sarika, Eckert, standing behind Lauren, suddenly spoke.
”Huh?”
”Duke... I admit, when we recommended you, we never thought you were such a man with wrist.” the count of angry Castle said, with a much lighter expression than usual:
”The three men's decision... Seems fair, but in fact, there is an irreconcilable contradiction between Archduke Varna and miss Sarika - if either party wants to be 'fair', it needs to rely on Bain's strength.”
”In other words, this is your strength... By mediating the disputes between the two families, Boye has essentially become your vassal. At least he has to act according to your orders in this war.”
With a slight sigh, Eckert suddenly chuckled: ”except for 'great'... I really can't think of the second one who can flatter you.”
When he said this, Lauren's face also showed a bitter smile.
”Vassal... It's not so easy.” the black haired wizard shook his head reluctantly. ”Not to mention whether those Boyi warriors will listen to me... As long as I have a little idea of 'bad', the two will immediately abandon the gap and agree to the outside world.”
”What's more, by doing so, I'm tying Byrne to Boye's chariot. Everyone has a relationship of prosperity and loss.”
”It's not easy to do this.” Eckert glanced at the beacon in the distance and said faintly: ”I was glad I was born in the era of the black Duke and often regretted that I lived in the era of the 'post black Duke'... I can only watch those things happen, but I can't change anything.”
”So when angert and I wasted 40 or 50 years, the only hope is to see the second Lord of Byrne who can be comparable to Roland Turin, that's all.”
”Well...” Luo Lun smiled awkwardly, ”I don't think I can...”
”No, Duke, you are different from Roland!” said Eckert in a deep voice. ”It should be said... Completely different.”
”Er...”
”Roland Turin... He can make people who hate him and love him fight for him, create myths again and again, and turn him into a real epic - what he can do, only he can do.”
The count of fury Castle shook his head, but then the conversation turned:
”But what Roland can't do... Maybe you can.”
