“Alright, at least if we can hold them off for a week, we'll still have reinforcements. Also, I need to write to Julianus and persuade him to send troops to help me resist Altaïr. Altaïr's main force is all here now. If he can send troops to directly attack Altaïr's vulnerable rear, it will also tie down the enemy.”
However, Niu Zida wasn't sure if he could persuade Julianus. After all, Julianus himself didn't want to offend Altaïr. If he hadn't known about Altaïr's military aristocracy's expansion plans, he wouldn't have even wanted to sign a military alliance treaty with him. He might ally with him for self-preservation, but whether he would send troops for him was anyone's guess. Let Su Liya try. If he didn't even listen to his own sister, he definitely had no chance.
Thinking this, Niu Zida pressed down on Xinhai's upturned head again and began to forcefully thrust into her tender red lips. The beautiful girl, who had just finished drinking urine, could no longer lift her head. She could only wriggle her snowy cheeks and continue to use her tender lips to suck on Niu Zida's huge member, letting it penetrate to the root, all the way to the deepest part of her throat. Niu Zida's thick member quickly made Xinhai's eyes water and she kept groaning with difficulty. In the end, the white-stockinged beauty could only suppress her gagging, lying on the bed and raising her head to swallow the large clump of hot semen that Niu Zida had angrily ejaculated into her as he rode on her alluring face...
Chapter 392 Charlotte's Peace Talks
Chapter 392.
Another fierce attack was launched against the goblin camp that day, but after losing dozens of men, it failed. Tandret had no choice but to order his troops to cease their attack and rest.
"Your Grace, I didn't expect these goblins to hold out for so long. We've lost quite a few men today."
After taking stock of the losses in his own tent, Tandret's expression turned serious, and his advisor beside him couldn't help but say with concern:
“If this continues, it will be difficult for our troops to maintain morale. Recently, we have lost more than one-fifth of our soldiers. If the human forces in Hetherink take the opportunity to attack us, it may be detrimental to us.”
His previous strategy of attacking only goblins and not the human forces of Hetherink was supposed to divide the enemy and quickly defeat the goblin army. After all, Tandret simply did not believe that those small goblins could withstand the onslaught of his 2 regular troops on the front lines. However, the battles of the past two weeks have been far beyond his expectations.
These goblins not only possess magical attacks but also a variety of tactics. Recently, I've heard that the enemy has been constantly harassing my logistics. If all of this were just so-called clever tricks, then the fact that they withstood my attacks head-on, especially after my regular army's charge a few days ago, is something I can no longer fool myself about. These goblin armies are far more powerful than I thought, and they are not the demi-human barbarians I previously imagined, who only hid in caves and relied on raiding tribes.
"These lowly goblins are reckless. If this continues, the kingdom's finances may not be able to support us just by paying the soldiers' pensions."
Unlike conscripts, standing troops require significant investment in training, equipment, and wages. The deaths in battle also necessitate substantial compensation. The number of standing troops killed in action just these past few days has already strained the kingdom's treasury. Moreover, while conscripts are cheaper, the sheer number of deaths adds up to a considerable sum. Fighting this kind of war makes Tandret feel less like a general and more like a company accountant.
"If possible, it would be best to force the other side to make concessions through negotiations."
"Negotiate with these goblins? Don't be ridiculous."
Upon hearing his advisors' suggestion, Tandret resolutely refused. As the commander-in-chief at the front, he had no right to lead the peace talks; if the aristocratic members of parliament in the rear found out, they would surely impeach him in the House of Lords.
Chapter 560
He was impeaching himself, not to mention that as a nobleman, Tandret himself looked down on these goblins. How could a nobleman negotiate with these demi-humans? He even felt insulted by accepting their surrender offer.
"But sir, our casualties are also too high. If we could resolve this through negotiations..."
"Stop talking, it's absolutely impossible."
Tandret resolutely rejected his advisor's suggestion, but just then, an attendant came to vouch for him, saying that an envoy from the other side had arrived. Tandret was about to refuse when the attendant cautiously said:
“This is Princess Charlotte’s messenger.”
"Oh? Princess Charlotte? What brings her messenger here?"
"Is it possible that Princess Charlotte is being held hostage by the goblins, and now that she sees the goblins suffering heavy casualties from the adults' forces, she wants to negotiate with them? If so, having Princess Charlotte's people act as inside agents to attack the goblins from both inside and outside could lead to a breakthrough..."
The advisor's words were already hinting that Tandret could receive Princess Charlotte's envoy. After thinking for a moment, Tandret said:
“Alright, since he is Princess Charlotte’s envoy, let him in.”
Only after receiving Tandret's permission did the envoy enter. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, he got straight to the point:
"Princess Charlotte never intended to get involved in politics. It was only because Count Bozeman rebelled and seized power that she had no choice but to rely on goblins to suppress the rebels. Who knew that she would be blackmailed by these rebels and put in a difficult position, which led to her confrontation with the Kingdom of Altaïr. This was not the princess's original wish."
"Oh? So Princess Charlotte wants to make peace?"
"Yes……"
"So what are the specific conditions? Is Your Highness willing to abdicate?"
Tandret didn't want to argue with the other party. After all, as a general who led troops into battle, he preferred to be straightforward, so he directly stated the demands of the Kingdom of Altaïr.
"Of course, but I hope you can give the princess some time. After all, she is surrounded by goblins right now, and suddenly proposing peace talks would only backfire."
"How long will it take?"
"About 10 days."
"What a joke, 10 days? I could wipe out all the goblins in 10 days, what's the point of talking to Charlotte..."
Tandret was deliberately bluffing here. In reality, his side had suffered heavy casualties, and he didn't know how many goblins were left. But since it was a negotiation, he naturally had to put on a show of strength to gain an advantage in the subsequent bargaining.
"But Princess Charlotte also needs to find an opportunity to eliminate the goblin leader. Otherwise, with the princess surrounded by enemies, she herself is in danger if she is not careful. I hope that Your Grace will be lenient."
"How Princess Charlotte eliminates the goblins is her business, let's leave that aside for now. What are the follow-up conditions for the peace talks? Is the princess willing to abdicate? If so, the Altaïr House of Nobles can apply to retain her private property and Duke Heatherlink's direct territories. However, the portion of Bozeman's territory that has been incorporated into the Duke's direct territories must be handed over as compensation for this war. Moreover, the princess must support the new Duke Heatherlink appointed by the kingdom."
This was practically a pact of national subjugation, and the envoy secretly gasped. However, his orders upon arrival were to agree to any conditions, no matter how harsh, so he pretended to think for a moment before saying:
"I need to report this to Her Highness the Princess, but I believe she will agree..."
“I don’t want to hear such an ambiguous answer. If Princess Charlotte agrees, at least send over a draft agreement first…”
"In the midst of battle, constant movement could easily lead to leaks of information..."
"Then this is your problem..."
Tandret showed no intention of showing sympathy; on the contrary, he pressed on relentlessly. Seeing this, the envoy sighed helplessly and said:
"Her Highness anticipated this as well, which is why she had me bring the Duke's Seal, authorizing me to sign a draft agreement here first."
"Oh? You mean Princess Charlotte entrusted you with bringing all the seals?"
Tandret's eyes lit up upon hearing the envoy's words. He had initially thought it was a feint by Princess Charlotte, but now it seemed that the other party had sent the seals to his camp, using them as collateral to gain his trust. Such sincerity made it hard to doubt him.
"Yes, now His Majesty the Duke can believe in Princess Charlotte's sincerity in the peace talks."
This time, Tandret did not refute the messenger's words. Seeing this, the messenger quickly took out the seal and handed it to Tandret, asking him to examine it carefully. Tandret took the seal and was surprised to see the unique emblem belonging to the Heatherlink family for generations. The seal was exquisitely crafted and could not possibly be a fake.
"Okay, let's sign a preliminary agreement then..."
"In terms of time, considering that we've already given you the seal, could you please give us a little more time to make an exception?"
"One week, we can't delay any longer."
"Then, I hope that the Duke can send someone to pick up the princess a week later, so that we can attack from both inside and outside and wipe out the goblins in one fell swoop."
"This is natural..."
Upon hearing that Tandret had finally compromised by giving a seven-day deadline and promising to send troops to help, the envoy nodded. He then signed his name on the draft contract prepared by Tandret, affixed the princess's seal, and handed the seal to Tandret as collateral before leaving.
After seeing the envoy off, Tandret looked at the draft pact in his hand, then at the seal, and fell into deep thought.
Chapter 561
"Think," a staff member reminded him.
"Your Grace, is it possible that they are feigning surrender?"
"Probably not, otherwise they wouldn't have sent the seal over..."
"But……"
"Alright, with so much suspicion, how can you accomplish great things? Go and call over Dorrent, Agjan, and the others. I need to arrange the specific personnel for the operation a few days from now."
"Yes, my lord..."
Seeing that Tandret had made up his mind, the staff could not say much and could only keep quiet and wait for his arrangements.
The messenger returned to the camp and entered Princess Charlotte's tent alone. Apart from Fujikura Yu, there was no one else present, indicating that Charlotte had been waiting for him for a long time.
"Is the mission complete?"
"It's finished, but Your Highness, isn't it too dangerous to hand over the seal to them? What if it can't be completed..."
"I know what I'm doing, you don't need to worry about it. By the way, don't let a word of this slip out."
"Yes, I understand..."
Upon hearing Charlotte's words, the envoy understood that as a long-time retainer of Duke Heatherlink, this trip was a secret, and he knew that it absolutely could not be leaked to outsiders, otherwise Princess Charlotte's life would be in danger.
After the envoy left, Charlotte left her tent alone and went to Niu Zida's camp. Before she even entered, she heard moans and groans coming from inside, a mixture of ambiguity, humiliation, and a little pleasure, occasionally interspersed with the lewd laughter of men. Charlotte's heart was agitated, and a surge of heat rushed out from within. Even the black stockings became slightly muddy when she heard these sounds.
Charlotte paused outside, swallowing greedily before pushing the door open and entering. She saw Niu Zida riding on Ningguang's beautiful buttocks from behind, thrusting into her hard. Ningguang had long lost her usual elegant demeanor; now, her beautiful eyes were turned upside down, drool dripping from her mouth, looking completely like a slut...
Chapter 393 Entering Shizuku Misato's Room at Night
Chapter 393.
"Charlotte, what brings you here? Is something the matter?"
"No, Master...it's alright..."
Charlotte entered and stared blankly at the two people on the bed. When Niu Zida asked her about it, she suddenly realized what was happening. She nodded subconsciously at first, then quickly shook her head in denial. Niu Zida didn't suspect anything and didn't think much of it. So he focused on his battle with Ningguang, leaving Charlotte to watch this live sex show.
"Charlotte, you don't need to push me. I'll take care of Ningguang myself."
"Yes, Master..."
Hearing Niu Zida's words, Charlotte could only stand by and watch the two on the bed battle for a long time, until it subsided with Ningguang's high-pitched, seductive moans as if she had given in. After it was over, Charlotte took the initiative to move over from behind and hug Niu Zida, letting him lie in her arms. She held the pink-haired beauty's firm breasts, kissing and licking them, and biting and sucking on her nipples. Soon, Charlotte was breathing heavily, and a blush appeared on her fair face. Charlotte's body was the most easily aroused of all the concubines. Despite her noble status as a princess, she was the most wanton in body. This contrast was why Niu Zida liked this gentle and beautiful mare.
Ningguang lay on the bed for a while before recovering from her dazed state. Seeing that Charlotte was already holding Niu Zida, Ningguang could only get up, kneel down between Niu Zida's legs, raise her head, and use her tender red mouth to take Niu Zida's huge member into her mouth to do the "cleaning up" work for Niu Zida, who was concentrating on eating Charlotte's snow-white breasts. In no time, she licked the huge member until it was smooth and wet. Of course, Niu Zida also took the opportunity to urinate in Ningguang's mouth. Watching Ningguang wriggle her snowy cheeks and drink all her fresh urine, Niu Zida even slapped Ningguang's snowy cheeks a few times with his huge member as a reward.
"Charlotte, how are the peace talks going?"
"Master, the messenger I sent out has returned, and the agreed result is a one-week ceasefire."
"Oh? What kind of method did you use to make Tandret actually believe you?"
"Um... I swear on my noble name..."
"Haha, it's unbelievable that human nobles actually believe in this rubbish..."
Niu Zida seemed unconcerned by Charlotte's stammering answer. He was just teasing Ningguang's small mouth, which was curled up and kneeling below, with his huge thing. He would occasionally stuff it into Ningguang's small mouth and push it in a few times, and occasionally pull it out and slap Ningguang's snowy cheeks from side to side. Sometimes he would let Ningguang stick out her little tongue and lick the little hole at the top.
Seeing that Niu Zida didn't delve into her words, Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief. She wasn't good at lying, and if Niu Zida had asked a few more questions, she couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't reveal that she had pawned her seal. Her master would definitely be very angry if he heard that.
"Master, does this mean we have a week to catch our breath? We should use this time to breed as many goblins as possible."
"Of course, also, Charlotte, can't you command these human soldiers in the Hetherlink territory? They've been watching the show for quite a while now."
"Well... I will have the troops within my territory assist my master in battle..."
Hearing Charlotte say this, Niu Zida was helpless. Charlotte's management of her territory was truly a mess. Under normal circumstances, he could help her exert pressure and control her.
Chapter 562
These vassal lords, large and small, are currently preoccupied with their own problems and have no other options. They dare not use high-pressure tactics to control these people, otherwise they might not just be spectators but directly rebel.
"Master, don't make things difficult for Princess Charlotte. In critical moments, you still have to rely on yourself. In two days, reinforcements from Haiqi Island, Yunlai Port, and the Dark Elves will arrive."
These miscellaneous troops can only alleviate the manpower shortage to some extent. Simply put, their combat strength is only slightly stronger than that of ordinary goblins. Especially the troops from Haizhi Island, Niu Zida had a deep impression of the tragic casualty rate when he led the extermination of the island's demi-human tribes. With this kind of combat strength, they might not be much better than his own goblins if they were to fill the gap now. Besides, the reinforcements from these three places combined only amount to a little over 1000 people, which is not enough to solve the fundamental problem.
Thinking this, Niu Zida also felt a little agitated. He couldn't help but bite and suck on Charlotte's tender nipple, sucking hard. Waves of tingling numbness mixed with pain made Charlotte tilt her head back, squint her beautiful eyes, and let out a humiliating moan:
"Ah... Master... don't bite so hard... my nipples will be damaged..."
"I'll not only bite, I'll want more."
Niu Zida had rested enough, so he turned and ordered Charlotte to lie flat on the bed. He parted Charlotte's black stockings and thrust himself into her hard. Ningguang, of course, also knew to help from behind, assisting Niu Zida with another round of fierce thrusts. Finally, he aimed at Charlotte's uterus and ejaculated all his desire into her, bringing the beautiful girl to orgasm and helping Charlotte become pregnant. Now that the peace talks had been reached, it was natural that all the concubines would have to become pregnant during this period to help breed goblins and increase the army's strength. This was a principle that everyone understood without needing to explain.
After another fierce battle, Niu Zida lay down on Charlotte's delicate body to rest. Charlotte's skin was flushed with excitement. Niu Zida stopped playing with the beautiful girl's breasts and instead slowly moved down Charlotte's flat stomach, kissing her slender black stockings.
Smelling Charlotte's fragrance, Niu Zida held the long-haired pink-haired girl's slender black stockings and licked them repeatedly, drooling profusely until they were soaked through. The thin black stockings revealed her tender, elastic thighs, which made Niu Zida even more enamored. He lowered his head and left countless kisses along Charlotte's long, beautiful black stockings.
"Master, since the next period is a peace negotiation period, shouldn't the maids who are on duty for combat also participate in childbirth? This way, we can make the best use of this time."
"Yes, that's right. Misato Shizuku Asuna and Yoru Rosalia will soon be pregnant. We should try to get all the maids pregnant at least once in these 7 days. Some of them who are just past their due date can even get pregnant twice."
Niu Zida and Ningguang were also planning how to make good use of this rare respite. They could probably breed 200-300 more goblins. If Kanzaki Kanon could also heal some of the seriously wounded soldiers they had accumulated, they would have at least 500 more goblins in combat power, which could greatly alleviate the shortage of troops.
"Even so, if peace talks fail, even with reinforcements arriving, we can probably only sustain this level of fighting for a week at most..."
Ningguang left her words unfinished, but what she was really telling Niu Zida was that even after this delaying tactic, the war was still developing in a way that was unfavorable to our side.
"Let's not worry about that for now. If we can delay a little longer, things might turn around. As the saying goes, when the situation is exhausted, things will inevitably change. This is the time to use unconventional tactics, and we must not miss it."
Niu Zida could only agree to continue, despite Ningguang's reminder. Ningguang heard Niu Zida quote a passage from the Records of the Three Kingdoms, but she didn't know where it came from. She just thought it made a lot of sense and didn't feel comfortable saying anything more.
"Now's the perfect time to go find Shizuku Misato and tell her this good news as soon as possible."
Ningguang smiled as she looked at Niu Zida, thinking that her master probably just wanted to hurry up and violate Miss Misato Shizuku. She saw through him but didn't say anything. She guessed that her master had been holding back his desire to have sex with this frontline maid for a while.
"Master, then I'll carry you there."
"Charlotte, carry me. Ningguang, go take a shower. Tonight, you'll be lying in bed wearing only flesh-colored pantyhose, with your legs spread wide apart, waiting for me to come back."
