Chapter 268 Part1 (2/2)

But from Hamuye's initial reaction to the idea, it seems like this prince really did become afraid of those tents prepared by Du Wei Besides that, Haht somehow incidentally upset this Duke without intent and ruin the Snowy Mountain's plan To ate this risk, Hamuye offered to follow Biliaibuer back to the capital, his excuse was to ensure the process goes smoothly

Once Du Wei sent away these two men, he specifically wrote another letter for Prince Son in secret explaining his concerns and the abolishment of the cavalry army in the prairie

Then following suit, news came from his men down below that the Northwest Corridor has been cleared of any soldiers from the Northwest Army and that control has been handed over to him

Honestly speaking, Du Wei still hasn't come up with a plan to effective control this corridor When the Northwest Ar the protection of the corridor, the place was merely an accessory with no real benefit But now that he's taken it back, he can't just leave it be

Thinking back and forth, no real idea ca the entire corridor was co a wall, the cost of food and water alone will murder his finances

Du Wei did have the idea of roundwater, but this world was after all different froroundwater here waslike a small well, at best a fewfor an underground ill need to go as deep as a hundred y of this world where science practically doesn't exist

Thinking this won't work, that won't work, Du Wei eventually ca the corridor to set about the prairie altogether!

But this idea was quickly revoked by himself As the only route into the prairie, this Northwest Corridor acts as the life blood for many people: ot dibs into this route If he dare go against the entire world, sis will not keep himself secured Then there's the countless nobles that will co trouble for hi about all the trouble that will follow hurts his head

Then… … Build a water pipe connecting to the Northwest Corridor? This thought only lasted a second before he slapped hi silly

Like that would be easy! Loulan Lake was the biggest water source in the Northwest and the distance between the tas huge Considering the current sle pipe across the vast distance will be a technological feat he simply can't surmount with the current situation Then there's the issue of theft… Just thinking of the robbers eyeing his pipes made his brain numb

What was he going to do to keep this corridor safe……

daht now

Since there's no real good strategy for the tie and station a hundred soldiers at the corridor Though this will not effectively secure the place, but at the very least, it will be a good way to give hi frorassland

Rapidly, a month had passed when news returned froreed to all the terly, both the pro-war and peace factions had no objections, thus ending the whole thing with Harassland with the treaty in hand

Funny enough, Ha hoh, this prince evenour Duke It's not like Du Wei doesn't understand why Haiant detour… Isn't that a little too !

Once again, Biliaibuer ht with him a secret letter sealed with a wax stamp The moment Du Wei held the letter in his hand; he can already feel a wave ofaround the envelope, clearly a spell used to prohibit others fro inside As expected, it's a handwritten letter from Prince Son to him

The intro of the letter co he both kept the eet asdown to the reat he was in fending off the enelia City and faintly hinted in his letter that though the exploits were taken by the Northwest Arotten Then near the bottom half of the middle section, Prince Son declared that half of the coiven to hiotiation The last part may sound like it was for the treaty, but in truth, it was Prince Son's way of lia City

Understanding the hiddenbehind Son's letter, Du Wei became satisfied: this Son sure kno to please someone!

But good things never last, and his good mood quickly diminished into a frohen Du Wei read the last section

Regarding the abolishhts in the prairie, thewanted to do this However, this force cannot be gifted to Du Wei Though Du Wei did as Mrs Lister said and proposed the idea in a way that the army will remain within the imperial ranks, but the head officers refused this idea Therefore, Prince Son gave Du Wei two choices and that o Calvary units afterwith the military heads……

Six thousand people?

Reading this part, Du Wei nearly caused his nose to bend at how angry he was

What decision by the ive hih he's stuck in a bind between the Northwest Arrassland With this twenty thousand cavalry force, he can at least use it as a deterrent

But six thousand? Who the hell would care?
