Chapter 110 War is a continuation of politics (2)

This was the second monarch who asked him this way, and King Graves had asked him in this tone before.

"Sometimes, although impulsive, he is very charming." Hu Bin defined Sega Khan a long time ago.

"It's very appropriate. He has another characteristic, that is, he wants to save face, which is also the characteristic of all Kujits. At that time, the Rodoks attacked Kujit's army. You still remember the fact that Sega was so angry that Sega became angry. This time it was a bit like last time. The seemingly cautious attack of Vigiya had actually angered Sega. I got the information and Sega invited the old guy Boliboyena to the north. You must know that the old guy hadn't left Lana for a long time, but this time he went there to command the army. He had not moved until we were beaten to the door of the old nest. It was probably Sega wanted to teach the Vigiya a lesson." Hakim Sultan was in a good mood, and he became more and more excited as he spoke, like a weasel who stole a chicken.

"I guess the Kujits will siege us for a while, secretly reduce the surrounding troops in the middle, and then take advantage of the Vigiya being carried away and surround them and close the door and hit the dog." Sultan raised his hand and clenched his fist.

"So should we take advantage of the Coojits when they dealt with Vigiya's army?" Hu Bin asked excitedly.

"No, we just pretend that nothing has happened." Sultan Hakim said seriously.

"Why?"

"This is politics! Halma is Sega's bargaining chip." Sultan Hakim sighed and then said to Hu Bin: "You are still too young. If you sit in this position for seven or eight years, you will understand. As the future patriarch of the Reed family, Reed, you must remember that there are no eternal friends in this world, only eternal interests."

On the way back to the hotel room, Hu Bin kept thinking about the words of Hakim Sultan again, and he didn't understand the information contained in these words until he went to bed.

Sega Khan and Hakim Sultan are playing tacit understanding! Sega revealed little information through a series of actions to tell Hakim Sultan his intention to negotiate. The performance of the Sarand Legion was Hakim Sultan's reply to Sega Khan. Obviously, Halma City was given to Sarand as a bargaining chip, which was in exchange for the result that Sarand was neutral and even leaned towards Kujit's side in the subsequent war.

This reasoning scared Hu Bin. Is this the tacit understanding between politicians? It's so terrible that it can determine the direction of future war without communication. Even the bargaining chips in this silent transaction are a big city, almost equivalent to one-quarter of the territory of Coogit.

"War is a continuation of politics." Hu Bin couldn't help but think of such a sentence. Compared to the petty family spirit of the Vigiya Kingdom, Sega Khan was much more generous. Faced with the situation where his own strength was at a low point and the two enemy countries worked together to double-team, he actually made such a domineering decision. The reason might be just for face. Although it was funny, Hu Bin couldn't laugh. If it weren't for face, would Hakim Sultan still understand Sega Khan's meaning? Sega Khan really gave up Halma City just for face, and even said that Sega Khan really valued face so seriously?

Hu Bin dared not think about it anymore. He was so scared that he couldn't sleep in a cold sweat. For the sake of good health, he decisively emptied his mind and slowly entered the dream.

It was late at night, but the oil lamp in the study of Halma Castle was still on. Sultan Hakim pulled out a dagger from his bag. The pattern on the hilt of the sword had been polished, and it seemed that he had been a little old. He pulled out the dagger from the scabbard with a little force, and the sword body was still shiny and visible. It seemed that he had been carefully maintained. Sultan Hakim played with it for a while, suddenly sighed and raised the dagger in front of him.

A line of small words is engraved at the root of the dagger: Given to my best friend~Sega.

"Is there really no eternal friends in the world?" No one can answer the Sudan's question.

······

The battle situation was as Hakim Sultan said. On the morning of three days later, Kujit's army appeared at the city of Halma, led by a lord who was not familiar to Hu Bin. However, these were not important. What was important was that he received a tip that the Vigiya army began to invade the territory of the Kujit Khanate from the north, and three villages had been destroyed by fire.

Hu Bin also wanted to be as nervous as other lords, but after talking to Sultan Hakim, he couldn't get nervous, which made him seem a little heartless. However, the impression of his fighting madman had penetrated into the hearts of many lords, so no one noticed his abnormality. Instead, he felt that Reed was normal.

"Ah, it's really uncomfortable, I feel like I can't vomit." Hu Bin was so entangled that he knew that the surround outside had no meaning at all, but he still had to pretend to be prepared for the battle.

But Hu Bin will no longer be worried because the Cooji began to attack the city.

Hu Bin climbed to the city head and looked out from the hole in the battlement wall. The Kujits' siege ladder slowly approached the city wall.

"Hakim Sultan's guess was wrong?" Hu Bin, who was full of such questions, did not come back to his senses until he was shot by an arrow on his shoulder.

"Damn it, don't worry, kill these **." Hu Bin hurriedly lowered his body, picked up the battle bow behind him, and began to pour arrows at the enemies under the city.

The Kujits launched three sieges on this day, and then retreated in the middle of the night. At noon the next day, a Kujit legion cut off the supply line of the Vigiya people, and then several Kujit legion rushed out from all directions and defeated the scattered Vigiya Legion stranded in Kujit territory. The source of these legion was the garrisons of various strongholds. The Kujits actually gave up the defense of all fortresses, which put the Vigiya Legion at a disadvantage for a while. The main force of the Vigiya was blocked by a large number of cavalry on the way to retreat, and it was the troops that disappeared from the city of Halma. Then they joined the chasing Kujit legion and completely surrounded the main force of Vigiya.

"Encircle, divide, defeat, chase, annihilate, classic wolf pack tactics." Learning that the legion of the southern expedition of the Vigiya Kingdom was completely wiped out, Hu Bin followed the movements of Hakim Sultan and raised his hand to his chest and clenched his fists, but he could not feel a trace of temperature in his palm. He finally knew that what Sega paid for this siege battle was not only the city of Halma, but also the blood of the 500 Kujit soldiers in the siege troops.

The Vigiya, who suffered heavy losses, retracted back to the snowfield, and the Coojitis' losses were no smaller than that of the Vigiya Kingdom, and it took some time to lick the wound. Peace came so suddenly, but Hu Bin felt that such peace was hard-won. He suddenly felt that he had grown up and was no longer the big boy who kept saying that he had grown up but did immature actions. This world taught him something, and responsibility was still at a cost.

The lords of Sarande who ended the war returned to the country one after another, and the emerging lords assigned to the territory also took office one after another. However, Hu Bin returned to the initial city of Muladin, without disturbing anyone, and came to the temple of the Goddess of Nature alone. Hu Bin lay quietly on the lawn under the ancient tree of knowledge. He liked the environment here, quiet, peaceful, and quiet.

"The tea made from Moon Well Water that is newly produced today." A priest apprentice came over and handed Hu Bin a cup of tea.

"So great Goddess Eluen, what can I do to serve?" Moon well water was not allowed to be used by others without Hu Bin's permission, and only the owner of the temple dared to violate Hu Bin's orders.

"I personally serve you tea, but this is the attitude. Why don't you kneel down and take it with both hands quickly and praise me for your kindness."

"It's time to eat snacks. Sorry, I'm a little busy during this period and forgot to offer sacrifices to you regularly." Hu Bin was too lazy to move and released a bunch of snacks directly from the ring. This was no longer produced by the space, but a product developed by Hu Bin commissioned the chefs in the city.

"You have not had much time, so you should take the Kingdom of Rodoc into my control as soon as possible."

The female priest disappeared with the snacks, but Hu Bin's heart could no longer calm down.

"There's not much time?"
