The soldiers on the city wall curled their lips and asked,"Sir, are you ignoring them?"

Niu Da said calmly,"Don't worry about them. It would be best if they attack. There is no need for us to find excuses to start a war."

He remembered what the young master had written in his letter. The soldiers should also experience the aspect of defending the city, and this time should be regarded as their actual combat drill.

In this way, the two teams, one inside the city and the other outside the city, remained in a stalemate for most of the day until dusk.

"Father, they don't seem to want to talk to us."Toff said a little impatiently.

"As expected of a small noble from a remote place, even his knights are so rude."Kailak said with a gloomy face.

"Father, what should we do now? We have been waiting here for a long time. Every time we ask, we always say that their knight commander is busy."Toff said grumblingly.

"Let's go, it seems we have to make plans again. Kairak said with a wave of his voice, signaling for them to retreat first.

"treadtread......"

Kairak and his group retreated to the place where they were stationed yesterday.

"Director Niu, they retreated."The soldier grinned.

"Let them be, they will definitely come back."Niu Da had a slight smile on his lips.

"appeal....."Kairak's team halted their horses and stopped in the forest where they were stationed yesterday.

"Father......."Toph was interrupted by Kairak before he could finish speaking.

"Let’s make arrangements to set up camp first. Although we set up camp yesterday, don’t take it lightly and look around for potential dangers."Kailac waved his hands and fell into thinking.

It was completely dark, and Tov had also arranged to set up camp. There were more knights guarding the night.

In the main tent, Kairak and Tov were having dinner.

"Father, what should we do now? Attack by force?"Toff put down the dry barbecue.

"No, I don't want to waste too many troops in Somali City. Duke Kairak shook his head and said.

He has not forgotten that his biggest enemy is the eldest prince. Liu Feng does not take him seriously, and the city of Somalia is not that easy to break.

"By the way, Father, were you planning to use Princess Lucy as a bargaining chip yesterday?"Toff suddenly remembered the conversation between the two yesterday.

"Use Princess Lucy as a bargaining chip? No, the best bargaining chip is Catherine."Duke Kairak narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Catherine? Marry Catherine to that lowly noble?"Toff's eyes widened and he looked at his father in disbelief.

"Don't worry, this is just a negotiation. I don't want to waste my troops here, but that doesn't mean I will be stingy in Xiyang City."Kailak said with a smile.

"I understand. It turns out that my father wanted to retain his troops. He first deceived them and said that he would marry Catherine to Liu Feng and let us enter the Somali city first, right?"Toff said excitedly.

"Are you that happy?"Kailak glared at Tov.

Tov lowered his head, and then said

"……"Kairak looked at Toph who was leaving and sighed,"...I still need to practice for a few more years, and my character is completely unqualified.""

Somalia City, in the main hall of the city lord's palace

"Director Niu, they rested in the forest yesterday."The soldiers sent to investigate reported

"They didn't make any movement. Niu Da asked

"No, they had a lot more hidden whistles, and the subordinates didn't dare to get too close."The spy continued.

"Okay, continue to send people to keep an eye on it, and report back as soon as there is any news. Niu Da waved his hand and said, gesturing for him to go down.

"yes."The soldiers immediately retreated

"Let's see who can bear it."Niu Da looked at the map in his hand quietly. If he was asked to send people to attack...it would be a pity that he would have to train troops.

…………

It was not yet completely bright, but Duke Kairak and his team woke up.

"You must go to Somalia City today."Kailak said solemnly

"Yes, the team is ready and ready to go."Toff said

"Let's go then."Kailac got into the carriage after saying that.

"Tap tap tap......"

It took more than three hours today. Kairak's team arrived in front of Somalia City again. The city gate was still closed.

"who?"The knights on the city wall are still the same as yesterday, all holding bows and arrows at Kailac and the others.

"It's still us. Yesterday, your knight commander was busy with many things and had no time to meet us. We are here again today to help us pass the message."Tov suppressed his anger and shouted

"Hold on."A soldier responded.

Niu Da was still standing on the city wall like yesterday. He still didn't plan to see them today.

Seeing the soldiers coming over to prepare a report, Niu Da immediately waved his hand and said,"I'm still busy. Tell them to wait"

"yes."The soldier said respectfully.

When he returned to the city wall, he stuck his head out and shouted to Tov,"Our director is still busy today."

"you......."Toph gritted his teeth and swallowed the words he was about to curse, then turned around and walked into the carriage.

"Father, this Liu Feng's subordinate is really too much."Toff cursed angrily.

"Still don’t want to see me? Then it seems we have to think of other ways."Duke Kairak opened the curtain of the carriage and looked at the Somali wall.

"Father, do you want to attack by force?"Toff finished speaking and held the sword at his waist. He was very impatient and wanted to vent his anger.

"You are just too reckless. A noble must rely on his brains instead of rushing to fight impulsively. That is what only reckless men would do."Duke Kairak scolded a little angrily.

"Yes, I knew I was wrong."Tov lowered his head respectfully.

Kairak looked at Toph for a while and said lightly,"Knight Commander? Then bribe him"

"What did father do to bribe this despicable knight?"Toff still doesn't understand what his father wants to do.

"Bribing doesn't mean I have to use him. Now it's enough to give him a noble position or some gold coins. As long as we can get in, we can talk about anything."Duke Kelak sneered.

"oh? Father wants to bribe him to let us enter the city!"Toff's eyes lit up. Isn't this the method he used to deceive girls before?

"Bring me the quill and the parchment. Since they don’t want to see you, let’s give them the benefits."Duke Kailac ordered.

Toph took it upon himself to send the parchment and quill to Kailac.

Kailac lowered his head and started writing. The content of the letter was that he wanted to marry Catherine to Liu Feng, and then rule the West together. land, and promised to give Niuda a noble title and a thousand gold coins as long as the gates of Somali City were opened. The matter was written on the parchment. The content of the letter will be given to him in the future.

"Go and ask someone to shoot this parchment onto the city wall with a bow and arrow."Kailak handed the written parchment to Toph.

"yes."Toff said respectfully.
