Chapter 341 Peace Talks Proposal
On the afternoon of the day of the trial, heavy footsteps finally sounded in the air outside the city of Leon. A Midlan army appeared in the suburbs outside the city, as if an invisible force was slowly approaching. Under the sunlight, the army's armor flashed a dazzling light, and the uniform footsteps echoed on the land, bursting out a sonorous and powerful rhythm.
In this fully armed army, the bright Midland flag and John's white black eagle flag were flying. Especially under the black eagle, the soldiers' equipment was particularly eye-catching.
The armor they wore gleamed with metallic luster and was well-made and exquisitely designed. It looked thicker and more refined than the Midland regular army in the phalanx next to them.
John rode on a tall horse, looking into the distance intently. His eyes traveled across the fields and hills, and finally he vaguely caught a glimpse of the outline of Leon at the end of his sight. The towering city walls shone with golden light under the setting sun.
Behind him, the Yoda envoy who was previously in Leon was tied to a thick pillar. His bruised face was full of anger, but he was powerless to struggle, so he could only lower his head to prevent people from seeing his face. John also prepared a carriage for him and fixed the pillar he was tied to on it, bringing him here as if he were parading through the streets. The carriage was shaking, which seemed to only deepen his sense of humiliation.
The reason why John was able to capture the Yoda envoy was that he opened the system map as usual the night before. When he shifted his sights to Leon, he saw a small human model on the system map moving quickly to the south. He immediately clicked on the character information and saw the words "Yoda" and "spy" written on it.
John showed no mercy to this spy, and soon groups of scouts and White Wolf Knights were dispatched in full force. With their joint efforts, after several hours of pursuit, they finally captured Envoy Yoda and brought him back.
At the same time, a letter from Windham was delivered to John by the messenger. When he opened it, he found that after learning of the King of Lana's willingness to negotiate peace, the king decided to go to negotiate with him in person, and the location was chosen in Mont-de-Marsan, the capital of the Governor-General of the Southwest.
The Yoda envoy who was brought back originally still had a glimmer of hope, thinking that he could struggle again, and would rather die than surrender, and even refused to say a word. However, John never spared his fists against such people.
So in the sight of Yoda, John walked in front of him and threw a punch without hesitation, hitting Yoda hard in the face. Suddenly, Yoda's face was distorted and he screamed like a pig being slaughtered. John did not stop, and continued to punch Yoda several times, and Yoda was dizzy and his eyes gradually became confused.
"You lowly bastard! You don't deserve to be a noble!"
Envoy Yoda finally roared, his throat making a hoarse sound and cursing. His anger and loss of composure could not hide his inner fear, but John did not intend to leave him any room.
"Come again."
John smiled coldly, raised his fist, and rushed forward again. This time, his fist was filled with anger and unstoppable power. The curses of the Yoda envoy were transformed into screams of pain by the dozens of consecutive punches. His body was constantly forced and his consciousness was gradually blurred.
As the last few punches landed solidly on Envoy Yoda, his momentum was gradually crushed, and his once strong mind collapsed. He finally began to beg for mercy, his voice filled with despair and helplessness.
"Stop...I'll tell you...I'll tell you everything I know!"
After receiving information about the coup in Leon from the special envoy of Yoda, John made a quick decision. He knew that time was running out and he had to set out immediately. Without a moment's delay, he immediately summoned his troops and ordered them to pack their equipment and prepare to set out. The soldiers responded quickly and then, under the leadership of John, they marched non-stop towards Leon.
Along the way, the dust raised by the rapid march was flying. The knights and horses kept pace with each other, and the sound of horse hooves echoed like thunder in the vast wilderness.
However, when John approached Leon and observed the Lana flag on the city wall, John breathed a sigh of relief and secretly rejoiced in his heart that at least the city was still in the hands of King Lana.
But despite this, John did not relax his vigilance. He took a deep breath and waved to the knights beside him. Soon, a knight left the team and rushed towards the gate of Leon.
The knights soon arrived
"We are Lord John's army!"
His voice echoed like a war drum, resounding on the city walls. The defenders gathered one after another, their eyes fixed on the knight, alert and curious.
"Lord John has captured a Yoda spy and learned about the situation here!"
The knight continued to shout, his tone full of determination and confidence. He raised the flag in his hand high, and the bright colors fluttered in the wind.
"Therefore, Lord John has come here with his army to confirm the safety of the Midland envoys. Please tell your King!"
Under the impact of his words, the defenders on the city wall instantly quieted down. The commander of the front line frowned, with a hint of hesitation and consideration in his eyes. After all, the general who guarded the west gate had just been executed, so he could not easily trust any unfamiliar army.
"We have Yoda's spy here in custody, and we have evidence of his confession!"
The knight did not flinch and his expression was firm.
"Let me report the situation to His Majesty the King. Sir John, please wait for a moment."
The general defending the city shouted to the people below, turned around, went down the city wall, got on a carriage and headed for the palace.
After a while, the city gate slowly opened, and King Lana, Hoss and others proudly appeared at the city gate on horseback. The golden armor shone brightly in the sun, as if declaring their pride and determination.
The king slowly walked to the bound Envoy Yoda and examined the pale but stubborn face. He knew that this was the man he had been looking for, the culprit that had caused Lana to fall into the quagmire of war.
At this moment, John arrived on horseback, his figure looking particularly firm in the sun. He jumped off his horse and saluted King Lana respectfully, his tone full of sincerity and respect.
"Dear King Lana, upon learning of your intention to negotiate, His Majesty the King of Midland decided to go to Mont-de-Marsan in person. We hope that you can arrive in Mont-de-Marsan in the winter and meet with our King."
King Rana lowered his head and thought for a moment, then finally nodded slightly.
"I agree that the place of negotiation shall be Mont-de-Marsan."
