Chapter Five Hundred and Sixtieth Court Discussion
Because Anthony sent someone to call him, Li Huailin was not the last one to arrive at the hall this time. Li Huailin's seat was the last time, Anthony's first seat on his right, and next to him was the First Army Marshal Wilham. He looked up and signaled to Anthony. Li Huailin sat down. This time Queen Marlina did not attend and did not know where to go.
After waiting for a while, all the civil and military officials arrived soon, and the court discussion officially began. Of course, this court discussion had only one purpose, and the ambassador of the Orcs was soon invited. Like the previous elves, the orcs were also a regular envoy, and the head was a male envoy with a mane, which looked like a lion clan, named Cloyas. The Li Huailin behind him also saw one, the previous goat Karailon, who knew nothing else.
"Foreign minister Cloyas, I have seen His Highness the Emperor of the Human race." Cloyas, who came here, stepped forward and saluted Anthony. Although their domestic form was not very good, Cloyas was still very dignified and could not tell at all that he was here to seek peace.
"Cloyas? That is, the younger brother of the chief of the orc tribe Dilbao?" Anthony asked.
"Yes, Deerbao is my brother." Cloas nodded and admitted.
"Yeah." Anthony nodded. The orcs really attached great importance to it. Cloas generally would not come here as an envoy, but now he is here, which means that the orcs are really urgent.
Although I already knew what the other party meant, I still had to ask a question on the official side, so Anthony said, "I don't know what the purpose of the beast tribe's mission to our country this time?"
"Of course it is for the war that is happening now between our country and your country." Cloas said immediately. "The war has lasted for 9 days so far, and the losses on both sides are very large. I think this meaningless war should be stopped now."
"9 days...Puff..." Anthony here almost burst into laughter. The beast tribe couldn't stand it after only 9 days. You should know that the human tribe and the beast tribe fought for 4 months last year, and finally the battle was stopped due to the death of Marshal Moffas and the lack of food and grass on the beast tribe. This time, the beast tribe couldn't stand it in 9 days. The difference was so big.
"Sorry, we have enough food and grass here, and we can still bear it for a few months." Anthony said immediately. Now the Second Legion's food and grass are basically robbed by ourselves. There is almost no food and grass, and the route of transporting grain has been opened. If you want to send it, you can deliver it at any time, so you are not worried about this problem.
"His Highness Anthony, this battle is meaningless. Your human race originally fought to help the elves defend their territory. Now we have given up attacking the elves' territory. Your combat purpose has been achieved. Is there any meaning to continue this battle now?" Cloas said immediately.
"It's not that you gave up, but that you can't fight." A minister next to him immediately stood up and said, "No matter how you calculate it, your remaining troops are no more than 50,000. You still want to fight the elves, are you kidding?"
"Not only that, this army is still being chased by the elves. I wonder if it can leave the land of the elves alive." Another minister next to him also mocked. The human race was naturally very happy that the beast race was beaten so shameless this time. At this time last year, the human race took the initiative to seek peace and even gave them food and grass before they were willing to truce the battle. At that time, it was so shameless, and everyone was holding their breath. Unexpectedly, the matter was completely reversed, and the ministers immediately started to fight back.
Cloas's face turned red when he was said, but it was true that this was true. However, he would not forget his mission because of this little ridicule. Of course he knew what the orcs are now. Just when he was chatting here, the Second Legion was still slaughtering there, and the collegial must be completed immediately.
"His Royal Highness Anthony, this time our Beasts took the initiative to provoke a war and challenged the authority of the human race. We do want to apologize for this." Cloas changed his attitude and lowered his posture a little, "As an apology, our Beasts will offer an item. I hope His Royal Highness Anthony can forgive our previous mistakes and stop this meaningless war."
"Oh?" Anthony smiled. The meat scene was indeed here. Wilham here had already greeted him. They all supported the conclusion of this collegial agreement. After listening to the analysis, Anthony also felt that Li Huailin's opinion was indeed correct. He had no need to destroy the beast clan. It was enough to destroy them to this point. There was no need to let the elves take advantage. Of course, it was impossible to send troops in vain. If you want to negotiate peace with the beast clan, you must give some things. This time, Anthony will see what the beast clan can give. Money, grain, etc. Anthony has given up. In a poor place like the beast clan, how much money can it cost, just see if you can take out any treasures, treasures and other things.
"What is it?" Anthony asked.
"Before, in the fight with the human race, a marshal of the human race unfortunately died, and his body is still intact on our beast race. As apologize, we will present the marshal's body this time..." Cloas said.
"The Marshal's body?" Everyone in the hall was stunned at first, and then they immediately understood. From the founding of the country to the present, there were only three marshal-level people who died in battle. The corpses of the first two have been brought back to Fengguang and buried. Only one marshal was killed in battle and his body was taken away by the other party. This was a great humiliation for the human race. The marshal was the legendary marshal of the human race - Moffas.
After understanding this, everyone present looked at Anthony on the throne, because Moffas was Anthony's personal father. No wonder the Beast tribe dared to negotiate peace with such a disadvantage this time. It turned out that he had a big card in his hand. How could Anthony refuse?
Unfortunately, no one knew that Anthony lost his memory... He hadn't recovered yet. He knew that his father was Moffas. The problem was that he had no memories of him, and he didn't remember anything about his feelings. Of course, Anthony's amnesia would not be announced to the public. Only the few close friends knew that the orcs and most of the ministers below did not know about this.
So Anthony exclaimed that it was a pity for the beasts to return the corpse. In terms of purpose, Anthony really didn't want to accept the corpse, because although it was his father's body, he couldn't remember it at all. He had to bury him with a glorious burial. It was so troublesome. It would be better to let the beasts get some more blood. But there was no way, he couldn't refuse. Who made him his son? Although he didn't remember it.
"Are you talking about my father's body?" Anthony asked.
"Yes, Your Highness, your father's body is well preserved, and our beast tribe also admires the warrior as brave as your father. He has never done anything to his body." Cloas said immediately when he saw Anthony's intention.
"Well..." Anthony thought for a while, and then said to himself, "My father's body is of course very important, but he brought national affairs into it for my private affairs. I wonder if this is correct..."
After saying that, Anthony looked at the minister below, and then said, "I don't know what you have to do. Should we cease to fight the beast tribe this time?"
The ministers are having a headache now. Most people naturally want to kill the beast tribe, but the problem is that the conditions raised by them are Anthony's father's body, which is more troublesome. Can you object? So all the ministers looked around and no one spoke.
"I... want to say a few words." At this time, Prime Minister Mah went out and said.
"What does the Prime Minister want to say?" Anthony asked.
"I think your highness's idea is wrong. Marshal Moffas is indeed His Highness's father, but at the same time, he is also the marshal of our human race, and has made great military achievements for our human race. Therefore, Marshal Moffas's affairs are not just His Highness's private affairs, but the state affairs of our empire. Do you think this is the case?" Mah said.
When the ministers heard that Prime Minister Mah said so, it seemed that the wind had already appeared, so they immediately agreed: "Yes, what the Prime Minister said makes sense."
"I agree, too." "I reconsider."...
"Yeah." Mah nodded, "So Your Highness, I think it is very important to welcome Marshal Moffas's body back. Since the beast tribe is willing to hand over Marshal Moffas' body, it seems that sincerity to apologize, I think it's time to end this battle."
Li Huailin looked at Mah in a little surprised, but Mah over there smiled slightly. Li Huailin instantly understood that this guy probably understood the current situation and did not want to continue fighting with the beast tribe. Unexpectedly, the prime minister was really capable and had a similar view to him.
"Oh? Maher, what you said makes sense." Anthony nodded, "Are there any other opinions?"
"I support the Prime Minister's opinion." The ministers expressed their agreement. Mah was very good at being an official and was very harmonious with all the officials below, so few people would object to his opinions.
"That's right..." Anthony nodded, and it seemed that there was no benefit to pick it up. After looking around, Anthony turned to Li Huailin's side, "Huailin, you have heard the ministers' opinions, what about your opinions?"
In an instant, everyone present stared at Li Huailin. This guy was the main person. This guy fought the whole battle, and it was the guy's troops who were still rampant in the beast tribe. As expected, in the end, he still had to ask Li Huailin's opinion.
The beast tribe was also nervous. As expected, in the end, I still had to check the Duke of Aquitaine's opinion. The gift had been given. I wonder if the Grand Duke of Aquitaine liked it.
