Chapter 26: Starting a War (13)
Alfred came over with a group of people. In fact, before the attack, the ambush army was always led by him, but the Britons and the Almani were not very friendly to each other. If it were not Caroling, but by him, he would inevitably have a bloody storm.
He glanced at the prisoners of war and looked at Ella:
"The King of Sweden, it seems that the vitality of that 'Kur' is still left. Meli still has no news yet. If you don't deal with Crodisius, you will not be able to celebrate. What should we do next?"
"Old solution, please transfer the Duke of Aquitaine first."
"Do you cheat him out again? Is this a little difficult? They have suffered such a blow and will definitely defend Paris more resolutely and wait for reinforcements."
"Don't worry, as long as I want to transfer him out, he will have to come out."
As he said this, Ella looked at the group of prisoners of war on the ground again.
Alfred also followed Ella's gaze and looked over: "These prisoners of war are several times more than us, and it is too dangerous to let them go. And just tie them up like this will greatly delay the speed of the march. In addition, we don't have that food for them to eat. If we continue to fight like before, it is best to deal with them now."
"Alfred, what are you talking about? Are you trying to kill prisoners of war on a large scale? They surrendered to me. You are not afraid of retribution, but I am afraid of retribution." Carolin glared at him dissatisfiedly, "Next time I will tie your wife, children, and I will deal with it without saying a word. Do you think it's okay?"
"What do you think you should do?" Alfred faced Caroling's gaze. "We were short before, so we could hide our whereabouts. With this group of burdens, can you still hide your whereabouts?"
"Afu, Carolin is right," said Ella. "We fought this war to win over the Almani Federation to our side. If all the surrendered prisoners of war were executed, how could we cooperate with them? Even if the consul agreed, the lords under them would definitely have various opinions."
"I didn't agree to cooperate with you." Carolin said coldly, "Don't forget, if you can't deal with the magicians of the Tianfang Empire, I will deal with you."
Alfred's eyes were filled with anger: "Calorin, do you have no backbone?"
Seeing that the two seemed to be fighting, Ella hurriedly advised: "Let's talk about what's going on in the future. At least we are in a cooperative relationship now."
"But the Swedish king, the handling of these prisoners of war is an imminent problem," said Alfred, "being kind to the enemy is cruelty to oneself."
Ella did not answer, but moved her attention away from Alfred and Caroling and put it on the group of prisoners again. The group of prisoners had already heard the argument between Alfred and Caroling just now, and at this moment, they were all uneasy. Ella turned her eyes and immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy. Among them, there were also a group of backbone who had already held their energy. If Ella wanted to execute them all here, they would treat it as a big scolding. Anyway, they would die, and at least they would not die.
——"Do you want to go home?"
Ella asked unexpectedly.
Many people nodded, and many people didn't understand the meaning and stared at Ella cautiously.
"I don't want to kill you, but staying here will only affect our battle." Ella said, "In a few days, a large number of reinforcements will come one after another. Their identities and forces are all confidential. If any of you spread this news, it will be a big trouble."
"A large number of reinforcements?"
Earl Kelshe lowered his head and listened silently. With the lessons of the past, he was skeptical of this information.
"So, I decided to send you back. You are from the Duke of Aquitaine, and all of you are back to the Duke of Aquitaine. Of course, to ensure that you are returning to the Duke of Aquitaine, rather than secretly returning to Paris to report the message, I will send soldiers to escort you back."
As he said that, Ella looked at Alfred:
"King King, all the troops in this camp will be handed over to you. Take these men and horses and escort all these prisoners of war back."
"All the troops in this camp?"
Alfred didn't understand what the medicine was sold in Aila's hoist. The troops in this camp were regular troops pieced together from the hands of the lords. It can be said that they were the most elite team in Aila's hands. If they took these troops away, Aila's hands were left with only a group of farmers who could not fight and a group of swordsmen who could not fight. However, the task given to such an elite regiment was to take prisoners of war back to Aquitaine?
But I heard Ella say, "Yes, I'll give it to you all. There's no way to fight head-on with this little man here, right? It's just right to go to escort prisoners of war."
Alfred noticed that Ella had another plan, so he followed her words and responded.
"As for the escort, there are two more ways." Ella raised two fingers at the group of prisoners of war, "One of them, they were tied up like a prisoner and were pressed back all the way. What do you think?"
"You are parading us in the streets!" Earl Kelsch roared underneath, "I would rather die if I suffer such shame!"
"Don't worry, isn't there a second solution?" Ella said, "I can loosen your ties and let you return to Aquitaine by yourself under the banner. Of course, I cannot give you weapons, and to ensure that you don't cause trouble, I will arrange for people to stare around you lords twenty-four hours a day. Not only can't talk to others, but once there is something wrong with the army, I will immediately attack you. However, to outsiders, at least you are taking the team back to Aquitaine by yourself, how about it?"

"According to the number of people who loosen the tie, pay a silver coin for each person who loosens the tie. Accounting is allowed, but you have to sign and seal it. How about it?" Ella said, "I'll give you half a day to consider. If you can't get the result after half a day, then you will tie you up and take it back."
After saying that, Ella stood up and left here with her hand.
Not long after, Alfred came over.
"They have agreed to pay the silver coins and are signing the seal," said Alfred. "But King of Sweden, what are you selling in your gourd? You can't really make the money for that little silver coins, are you?"
"The silver coins are likely to be unable to get them, because I have to defeat the Duke of Aquitaine. And they have all drunk the potion, and the Duke of Aquitaine is defeated, which means they are all going to die."
When she said this, Ella couldn't help feeling a little sad. She had won many victories, but never had a single victory in a war. It was like this that she had to wipe out the entire enemy's army.
"King of Sweden, I don't understand," said Alfred, "what do you need to defeat the Duke of Aquitaine?"
"Alfred, you just said something right. It will be difficult to hide your whereabouts with this group of people." Ella said, "But if you change your thinking, what if you can't hide your whereabouts?"
"advantage?"
