Chapter 277: Three Conditions
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Joshua Mandor was a ruthless person. He could do what he said.
In normal times, Joshua would be too lazy to care about the attitude of the western army.
Regardless of how many rumors were spreading.
However, some bottom lines were red lines for Joshua.
No matter who it was, even if it was a test, they would have to bear the anger of the western army.
The western army’s young master, Joshua Mandor, was conferred the title of king at the age of eighteen.
He was definitely not a good person!
Braydon Neal could not help but laugh. “Dominic Lowe and the others sent you to Ludwig in the hope that you would be able to stop the northern army from moving south at a critical moment in the future!”
“So be it. At most, we’ll just put on an act when the time comes.” Joshua looked indifferent.
Actually, transferring the western army to Ludwig was beneficial to the northern army.
The reason was simple.
The western army would be able to go north to help in the blink of an eye.
If the northern army went south, looking at Joshua’s sloppy appearance, the northern army and western army might collude and go south together.
Braydon chuckled. “Alright, you guarding Ludwig is beyond my expectations. I have something for you to do.” “The western army’s 300,000 cavalries are at your command!”
Joshua suddenly stood up.
His eyes shone with a hint of fighting spirit.
He had not come to the Neal family to meet Braydon personally because of the mobilization of the western army.
Joshua did not need to explain at all. Those guys in the northern region did not care about the fact that the western army had been transferred to a strategic location!
Only the few of them knew who the young master of the western army, Joshua, was to the northern army!
None of the ten ruthless men of the northern army were weaklings!
On the surface, Joshua controlled 300,000 cavalries from the western army, and secretly controlled 100,000 elites from the ninth legion of the northern army. He was also the leader of the Nine Nether Troop!
The Nine Nether Troops was a legend in the northern army!
The people of the northern army had basically never seen what the Nine Nether Troop looked like.
Not to mention that the outside world had never heard of this power.
If the Nine Nether Troop showed up, it would be an earth-shattering day.
Braydon stood up calmly, his left hand making a ‘killing’ gesture. His lips moved slightly, “The western army’s cavalry has been transferred to Ludwig to keep an eye on Banko!”
“Yes, sir!”
Joshua got up and received the military order.
He knew what to do next.
In Braydon’s heart, he had always wanted to take revenge for the Ludwig army, and even more so, he wanted to take back the Ludwig Archipelago that had been occupied by the three foreign countries.
These were the lands of Hansworth that had been seized by the three countries outside the borders for 40 years.
Because of this incident, the Ludwig army was branded as a rebel army and bore the stain of losing their country.
Now, Braydon had returned to Preston from the battlefield in the north.
This meant that King Braydon had already freed his hands and wanted to take care of Banko.
Unfortunately, the three countries outside the borders were becoming more and more cautious.
To put it simply, they were terrified!
They did not want to give Braydon any leverage, nor did they want to give the northern army any reason to go south.
Then this matter could only be handed over to the western army.
Once they found an opportunity, they did not need to report it. The western army would immediately launch a fierce attack and start a war to recover the lost 36 islands in Ludwig.
If the three countries outside the border dared to raise an army, there was no doubt that Braydon would move the northern army south, pushing the battle line 800 miles back and pushing the flames of war into the territories of the three countries.
King Braydon had the right to decide this matter!
Don’t forget, he was the leader of the hundred generals in the military!
If Braydon made a move, almost 90% of the military would support him.
You would understand the terrifying influence of the northern region’s plain-clothed man in the future.
Joshua poured tea for Braydon and suddenly asked, “Brother, what if they admit defeat?”
“Then, give them three conditions!”
“First, return the Ludwig Islands!”
“Second, hand over the criminal who attacked the Ludwig army!”
“Third, cede 50 kilometers of land as a buffer zone between the two countries. Furthermore, I will choose a daughter of the ruler to be your wife as a condition for peace!”
Braydon held the teacup with his fair left hand and sipped the green tea.
Joshua’s face darkened when he heard this.
He mumbled, “I don’t want to marry a foreign girl! ”
Braydon could not help but laugh.
Joshua even refused arrogantly!
However, they knew how harsh Braydon’s conditions were.
The first two conditions were to settle old scores.
The third condition was obviously to humiliate the three foreign countries.
By offering such conditions, it was obvious that they did not intend to negotiate peace.
This was Braydon’s attitude!
The eight foreign countries beyond the borders of the northern territory knew this best.
They understood the northern army and the plain-clothed commander of the northern army the most.
The northern army did not accept any peace talks!
Once the northern army was mobilized, the flames of war would engulf the entire battlefield and wipe them out!
The northern army that pursued the idea of killing.
You want these lunatics to accept peace talks?
This was simply nonsense!
Braydon and Joshua were chatting.
Heather Sage was sweating profusely. With her hands behind her back, she sneakily stuck her head out, her bright eyes filled with curiosity.
“Since you’re already here, come in!” Braydon’s eyes were filled with helplessness.
Heather placed her hands behind her back and asked innocently, “Hey, Little
Braydon, who’s this big brother?”
“You don’t know him? He used to appear on television often!”
Braydon reminded her. He looked outside the door and said helplessly, “Xana, you can come in too!”
“Your Neal family’s bright hall is a place to receive important people. How can a girl like me enter?”
Xana Thomas wrinkled her nose.
The young lady put it that way but had already placed one foot into the main door of the bright hall.
The two of them did not leave the Neal family. They were competing with the punching machine in the training room. It seemed that they wanted to learn ancient martial arts.
When Joshua saw that outsiders had arrived, he stood up and chuckled. “Alright, I should go too!”
“Leave from the back door. Don’t swagger around like that. Aren’t you afraid people will find out you’re here?”
Braydon’s eyes revealed a hint of helplessness.
Previously, Joshua stood outside the Neal family’s manor for an hour, looking righteous.
It was as if he was afraid that others would not know that he had come to the Neal family!
Joshua’s identity could not be announced to the public for the time being.
Otherwise, it would only cause trouble for Braydon.
“Got it. I’m not a child. Take care of yourself. You look like you have kidney problems!”
Joshua disappeared in a flash.
Braydon stood up and watched him leave. His thin lips moved slightly. “Sammy, help Joshua deal with the traces.”
“Yes, sir!”
Sammy left with him. All the outsiders who knew about Joshua’s whereabouts were killed without leaving any evidence.
After all, the western army’s young master, Joshua Mandor, had connections with the northern region.
It was just a rumor.
No one could testify.
Without evidence, no one could use this rumor to make things difficult for Joshua and Braydon.
If they used this as an excuse to target Braydon, without any evidence, it would be slander.
These troublemakers of the northern army could chop you up and feed you to the dogs.
The little fool had done this kind of thing more than once!
Luke Yates had done all kinds of bad things in the six provinces of southern Hansworth. Every year, the various powerful families would sue him in the governor office more than a hundred times..
