I Became the First Prince
201. 61. It means blood. (1)
I still remember the first time I met you on an unnamed plank like yesterday. You were like a lost lamb; you were like a damp child who could not find a place to escape the rain. I feel like I see myself in the past, and you probably don't know how my heart is.
"... and I pledged to make it a strong fence for you to avoid the rain. Because I thought it was something I should do for my brother...
The first half of the bid was full of expressions of unfathomable love and useless rhetoric.
“A real lunatic. ”
After laughing in vain, I swiftly scrutinized the plea.
"... It is a tragedy to face a sword and spear like you, brother. Between my heart toward home and my affection toward you, I am forced to spend the night in tears.
The middle part of the world was just a novel written in its own tragedy and sorrow.
He also looked into the eyes of the great river.
"I had no choice but to take my brother's citadel and fortress from the beginning. It is time to return the citadel and fortress that I have temporarily assigned to the original owner.
I thought I'd just write some crazy bullshit, but I still had a point.
"I want to end this tragic war with it.
Everything will go back before the war.
"Sometimes you and I had a brotherly relationship.
That was a unilateral declaration of the end.
“Ha."
Laughter came out of me.
The audacity is also to some extent a law.
It was the empire that waged the war first, and the empire that invaded the kingdom's land first. The Kingdom has already lost its National Capital and has lost so many.
But now we come and turn everything around before the war.
It was so horrible that it was my style.
I read the last part of the plea again.
"Just as you and I are brothers, don't forget that the Empire and the Kingdom are brothers.
"Brothers do not cross each other.
What are you writing, brother? After all, I told you not to attack the back, as I will return the occupied citadel and fortress.
I really had to fight with my relatives, but it was really worthwhile to run the Dori Canal.
However, the previous proposal was not bad, apart from the words of the three princes who were not right before and after it.
The kingdom was already at its limits.
It wasn't about winning or losing right now. It was about after the war.
The Kingdom was currently running as many troops as it could mobilize and was pouring its total strength into it. It was not an exaggeration to say that he walked through all the kingdoms to survive and win this war.
It was natural that the longer the war lasted, the greater the burden the kingdom had to bear.
In that situation, the Three Princes proposed an end. Even the Occupied Citadel.
It was a difficult proposal to reject.
Nevertheless, I did not think that the proposal was a good one. Rather, I felt like I had been turned upside down.
I turned my head.
I saw the Imperial Knight under the wall.
He was surrounded by knights of the kingdom, but had no scary colors. I noticed that no one in this castle would ever touch one of my hairs.
Not long ago, despite the loss of the lives of countless imperial knights and soldiers in this castle.
The knight was arrogant, like the king's messenger who came to make a great prize, and was drunken with superiority, like a rich man who shipped off to the poor.
As soon as I realized that, I found out what I felt bad about it.
To accept the end of the world was to take out the fire seeds that the Queen had consumed with her death by my hand. It was the scattering of ashes on all the knights and soldiers of the kingdom who sacrificed their lives.
The victory and pride the kingdom has achieved will be empty, and the Knights of the Empire will again see the Knights of the Kingdom under their eyes.
The end of the war they remember will not be the triumph of the kingdom, but the result of negotiations.
That evidence was the article in front of my eyes.
I haven't even spoken of accepting the end of the world yet, but the knight has been arrogantly arrogant.
It was not pleasant.
I had no reason to look so unpleasant for so long.
But even if I expelled the messenger, there was something I had to do first.
“Malkoy.”
“Yes, Your Majesty. ”
Malkoy, who was waiting not far away, approached coldly.
I briefly explained the contents of the petition to him and instructed him to write a reply straight away.
“What should I write down? ”
“If you want to end the war, take it seriously. Don't even think about sending me a pledge. ”
In my words, Malkoy nods as the bear is submerged in thought.
“You mean to negotiate the end of the war properly. ”
Malcolm took out his pen and parchment and wrote down his reply.
“Would that be enough? ”
I looked through Malkoy's written pleadings.
There were too many useless rhetoric and overly polite tones to like, but the content itself had nowhere to go.
“That's good. Let's go. ”
From there, he roughly sealed the parchment and gave it back to Malkoy, and Malkoy gave it back to the Imperial Envoy.
The envoy of the empire, who received the pledge, had a noticeably stiff face.
“If you're done with your business, go. ”
I shook my hand and threw out the envoy.
“So...”
The Knights of the Empire did not dare to tremble like before, but were small and respectful.
Suddenly, when the mission I knew would succeed, I began to worry about the reproach of the Three Princes.
But there was no reason for me to care about the back of the arrogant Imperial Knight.
All I have to care about now is the trend of the Empire. And this was what the kingdom could gain.
Then I had to put the three princes on the negotiating table.
Fortunately, it would not be difficult.
This time was also on the side of the kingdom.
The third prince had to return to the mainland a little sooner.
If the civil war waged by the 5th Prince succeeds while he is in his defence, everything will return to the bullets.
An ally was enough to pretend to grasp the ankle of such a prince.
If he wanted, he could ignore the Empire Army and rush back to the Emperor.
However, you will have to reverse the fame of pulling out too many troops and collapsing the wire.
The greed of the greedy three princes was also spontaneous.
Immediately after the war, the Empire continued to push its troops into war with the kingdom.
Most of them were crushed on the pasture, and many of the battle-ridden troops were subsequently evacuated or regrouped.
The northeastern legions of the empire, which became so famous by greedy triumphant princes, absorbed everything that was coming to them. From now on, the border cannot be maintained without triumphant troops.
The moment he said he was in a hurry, the moment he pulled his troops out of the front was when there was a big hole in the front.
Of course, he also had the option of dividing his troops to secure the border and leaving for the Emperor. But there was no way that greedy trio prince would leave my live bloody troops on the front lines before the fight against static.
If it had been my intention from the beginning, I would not have sent such a hassle to feed the former.
After putting an end to it, Zenom was convinced that running to the Emperor was his only plan.
But I had no intention of sending him to Emperor Horak.
I was going to hold my ankle as hard as I could.
“Tell all the commanders of the citadel on the front line to turn to aggression and prepare to attack behind the enemy."
The Knights of Changshang flew around the wire, delivering my orders.
The troops of the Fortress of the Silver Lion were also prepared to travel.
As the Imperial Army wants to see. Very disturbing and drastic.
The effect was quickly revealed.
As soon as the allies open the gates and run out, the Three Princes send their envoys again.
“If the prince is for peace in both countries, there is nothing he cannot do." ”
This time it was a properly formalized end to end clan.
I entrusted Malkoy with negotiating an end to the fortress.
“It's a chance I'll never have again. Rip it out as much as you can.”
In my opinion, some expressed concern that the negotiations would not be damaging if they were concluded.
Therefore, I regret that. I dismissed the kingdom, not the kingdom.
Negotiations could, of course, be concluded without really making excessive demands.
But it didn't matter.
After all, the negotiation of an end to the present conflict was not for lasting peace.
How long will one promise remain, and how much will it be effective, as long as the situation is urgent for one prince who is not the emperor of the Empire?
It has to be long, and it is a good promise if it is kept until the end of the civil war.
Despite knowing that, it was only for a cause that he put his mind to negotiations that might not have been meaningful.
The peace that the prince of the empire had enriched, as he looked down from high, and the previous negotiations, as the prince of the empire had hung himself, were not the same.
Negotiations flowed in such a way that the empire would accept them once the Kingdom offered the conditions.
In doing so, the Kingdom was able to take no less consolation (but in fact war compensation), and some of the territories of the empire located in the border subregion were taken as territories of the barren.
400 years ago, it was the land of the kingdom, but it was part of the old kingdom that was taken away over time.
We did not document the victory and defeat in the previous negotiations, but at this point the Empire recognized defeat and assumed responsibility.
It was too striking.
Even I was told to tear out as much as I could.
“Strange. There is no easy way to give away the land of my country. No matter how ruined the land is by war. ”
It was Malkoy's word.
Handing over the land of one country to another was not a matter for the Prince to decide. Nevertheless, the Three Princes allowed that condition so easily.
I wouldn't have done it without being crazy.
But the Three Princes were not crazy.
It was just that his surroundings were in such a hurry that he wanted to go crazy and run short.
“The top of the Empire Horse Tower and the Maestros supported the Five Princes! ”
I learned that only after all the previous negotiations were over.
