Allen leaned on the ground with the red king, and said slowly: "I called you here today to make a deal with you. `But before that, I want to ask you a question first."

"I just want to ask you, are you willing to continue to be a road cutter, go to the end on this black road, and then wait for the day when the emperor team comes to take you all. Or seize the opportunity and go back to the right road, maybe you guys will be killed in the future." Among the people, there are still people who can get along with a noble lord Dangdang, so it's better than now, right?"

After Allen finished speaking, someone below laughed inappropriately. As a result, the man's face turned pale immediately, and he was relieved to see that Alan was not angry. Then someone said: "Master Alan, it's not that we don't believe you, but what you said seems a little unlikely. The Dark Land has not existed for a day or two, and there is no intervention by the Emperor Team. Besides, here Located at the junction of several nearby territories, it is a gray area, and it is unlikely that the emperor will enter here."

Allen had already foreseen such a voice, which was also the consensus of the residents of the Dark Land. He nodded and said: "This is the normal situation. It won't be long before the situation in the empire will undergo some subtle changes."

There was a soft discussion in the square, and Allen raised his hand and said, "Do you know the Imperial Prime Minister Naibert?"

Brada next to him nodded and said, "I've heard of it, it seems to be a high-ranking official in the northern capital."

"It's not just a senior official..." Allen shook his head and said, "You know, Julian, the second prince of the current emperor, is a student of this Lord Naibert. You might as well think about it, this Lord Chancellor has a lot of weight." It is small?"

Although the group of thieves is a group of rough people, they are not stupid. How can the role of a teacher who can be a prince be so small? Allen didn't keep it up, and continued: "Not long ago, our Prime Minister made a suggestion to the emperor to cut down troops.`"

"Who should be soldiers?" Allen smiled and said, "It's definitely not the emperor, so the lords of various places are left. That's right, the specific suggestion of the prime minister is that below the Marquis, the lords of all places are not allowed to support themselves The original private army must be disbanded, and the security of the territory will be maintained by the emperor. The advantage of this is that the empire's control over all parts of the territory will reach an unprecedented height. Of course, this has also been strongly opposed by the local nobles Repression. But you have to know one thing, the emperor did not say anything about it. But not expressing it does not mean denying it. On the contrary, this is a very good thing for the imperial family. The voice of the imperial family will fill every corner of the empire. The imperial power will be pushed to the pinnacle of the empire's history, if you were the emperor, how would you choose?"

"If it were me, the reduction of soldiers is imperative. It's just a matter of time. Then, when the reduction of soldiers is confirmed, the emperor will enter various territories. At that time, do you think the emperor's army is far away from the dark land Is it still far?"

Allen made such a big detour,

It is to let the people below sort out the powerful relationship. He paused to give the people in the square a buffer before continuing: "The Dark Land can exist until now, it's not because the Empire doesn't care about you. In fact, this gray area involves the interests of many powerful people. Intersection, otherwise, tell me where there are so many agents in the dark land. Whose agents are they? If the local lord loses his private army, he loses his real power. The lord who lost his real power, without their interference, do you think the empire Will tolerate the existence of a dark place?"

"Impossible. Your existence itself is a contempt and insult to the imperial power. It is only because of the power structure of the empire and the imperial family's presence in the north that you have existed until now. I can guarantee that the land of darkness will be destroyed in no time. No matter how ruthless you are, you are as ruthless as the emperor? Impossible?"

Allen's words made the group of thieves jump in horror, as if a dream was suddenly awakened. `What I saw when I opened my eyes was the bloody and cruel reality. Even Potala and Weiss, this was the first time they heard such a logical analysis, and secretly broke out in a cold sweat. Weiss asked at this time: "We have never heard of what Lord Allen said. Logically speaking, such a thing should be an imperial secret. How could Lord Allen know such details?"

The implication is naturally to doubt whether all this is fabricated by Allen.

Allen was waiting for someone to ask such a question, and now Weiss raised it to his heart's content. He didn't answer, and turned slightly to the side. Edward stepped forward calmly, and said proudly: "Yes, this is an imperial secret. It was impossible for you to know this. Fortunately, Mr. Allen himself is a Viscount of the Empire! And not long before entering the Dark Land Lord Alan was also invited to participate in the wedding celebration of the son of the Iron Gun Marquis. If you don’t believe me, you can send someone to Gun City to inquire. Or, take a look at the imperial honor and title documents in my hand!”

He made a gesture, and Regis next to him showed the prepared certificate of title to the eyes of the gangsters in the square. Edward's words were undoubtedly a blockbuster, blowing the group of thieves into a cloud of fog, almost suspecting that they had heard it wrong. It's absurd to think about it. A Viscount of the Empire, a real dignitary, would appear in the Dark Land, let alone kill Joey, accept Wolf Warrior and Black Feather, and become a giant in the Dark Land?

Potala and Weissun exchanged glances, and both saw Youxin's shock in each other's eyes. They had guessed Alan's identity before, but they never expected that this young and strong man was actually the Viscount of the Empire. At this time, Gang En stood up and said in a deep voice: "Many people must know that our agent Meggis is behind a big man from the empire. Not long ago, Meggis visited and gave us a lot of help from Wolf Warriors." Bring a message from that lord. That lord asked us all, Wolf Warriors, no matter what price we pay, even if the whole army is wiped out, we must kill one person. To be exact, one person came from Tieqiangling to the dark place The Viscount. That’s right, that person is Mrs. Allen!"

If there were still doubts before, then after Alan presented these evidences one after another, coupled with Gang En's words, no one would question Alan's identity any more. After all, Huo Yi's son's wedding celebration has even been heard in the Dark Land, and some things are easy to find out. The origin of Meggis is no secret. If he hadn't had his eye on Wolf Warrior, how could Joey have risen in the Dark Land. As for his whereabouts, it is easier to inquire. In this way, what Gang En said is naturally the truth, which is equivalent to confirming Alan's identity.

Edward said again at this time: "Master Allen will pass through the dark place because he was invited by His Royal Highness the Second Prince Julian. That Highness hoped that Lord Allen would use it for him and made a promise. When Allen arrived The day of the northern capital is the time when your lord is promoted to earl!"

Another big news.

The earl, especially the strength shown by Allen, I am afraid that he will be a powerful earl as soon as he is promoted. What is the concept of a powerful earl? It is equivalent to the power of a marquis recognized by the empire. The only difference is the size of the territory and the size of the army. The earl of strength, no matter where he throws it, he is a big shot, a real big shot!

After saying this, Edward stepped back and nodded slightly to Allen. Allen walked back to his original position, smiled and said, "So now, can we get back to the original topic? As I said just now, I want to make a deal with you."

"I started from Dawn Castle, passed Iron Spear Ridge, and passed through the Dark Land. After that, I will go to Sardinia City, and then go north all the way to the Imperial Capital. The road I walked will become a smooth commercial road between the north and the south. .Once this trade route is actually opened, any smart person can figure out what kind of business opportunities and profits it will bring. The deal I made with you is that you will help me maintain the safety of large and small caravans entering and leaving the Dark Land. I will give you the same income as before. But your life will be more stable, and you can even change your identities. Ten or eight years later, you will be noble lords, not bandit leaders. Even if I can’t do it, can’t I Can't the second prince do it?"

Without giving the group of thieves time to think about it, Allen added: "Or, you can just leave here and continue to live your current life, and I will never interfere. You can have any consequences later, don't say I didn't warn you in advance. That's all I have to say. As for how to do it, you can think about it yourself. But there is one thing I have to explain first. If you are willing to follow me, that is of course the best. I don't care how you came here before. How many lives are on his back. But if he still does some black and white things after working with me, then I will not only kick him out, but also uproot him and wipe out the roots!"

He made a chopping gesture, and deliberately released his killing intent, which immediately put a lot of pressure on everyone in the square.

Allen put away his palms and smiled again: "Okay, I will stay in the dark place for a few more days. You still have time to think about it, so don't rush to answer now. It is rare for everyone to come today and get together. I have already let Gu Ruth is preparing a sumptuous dinner for everyone, and I will drink with you tonight, and nothing else will be discussed."

I don't know who started it, but after a while, there was a series of cheers in the square. Allen nodded, and led the people back to the temple. On the way he whispered to Edward, "I did as you said. How do you think they will agree?"

Edward stretched out five fingers and shook them: "Half and half."

"Only half?"

Edward withdrew his palm and smiled lightly: "Then how many do you think there will be? Do you really think these people are brainless fools? If a few words can be moved, then they can hang around in the dark place for so long? Want to To really hold them down, those just now are not enough. When you really get the real power of the earl, it will be about the same. But it doesn’t matter if they don’t agree, anyway, Zhanlang and Heiyu are already in your pocket now. I’ll let you Bloy brings an elite to settle in, and the dark land is equivalent to half in your pocket."

"Those ignorant guys, when you come back from the imperial capital, just send troops to eradicate them."

Edward glanced at Gurus and Gang En who were next to him intentionally or unintentionally, and it was obvious that these words were also intended for them. Gurus is okay, after all, he betrayed War Wolf first. Now only by hugging Allen's thigh can he gain a foothold in the Dark Land. So in terms of standpoint, he was basically on Alan's side, and as for Gang En, he was in a cold sweat.
