Yarmar, Estrard, Ulf, and these staff members were summoned to Amy's surroundings.

"As you know, we were cheated, we were cheated, and we lost all our money!"

Amy's eyes swept through the staff one by one. Her body was emitting heat to the surroundings like a bonfire, which was her angry call. She raised her head and before she could speak, a flame burst out in front of her eyes.

"We are not easy to bully either. We must give them some pain! What do you think?"

"What else is there to say?" Estrard pulled out the sword in his hand and inserted it on the ground. "He directly killed the city-state that was ignorant of the sky and the earth, dragged out all the merchants who sold us and those who worked for them, and hung them at the gate of the city!"

...

Amy frowned. She wanted to take revenge, but she didn't expect that Estrard was so bold that he would destroy a city-state directly.

Seeing this, Yarmar advised: "Estrard, we are here to do business, so don't be so angry."

Amy nodded. No matter what, the trade conflict escalated into a war, was still too much.

But Ulf continued, "These merchants still have to supply us. I think after capturing the city-state, we can only deal with their kings. We will manage this city-state ourselves and we will not lose money when selling obsidian in the future."

...

It seems that there is indeed a little more easing than Estrard's plan. But Amy feels a little bit wrong.

Ulf saw Amy's mood and drank to the two unwitting staff officers: "Be clearer! You two still know that we are here to do business? Obsidian is not the main trade goods, this batch of iron tools is."

Before Amy nodded, Ulf continued:

"It's useless to hang them. Let them line up in the city center in armor and kill them with iron tools in front of the entire city-state residents. When other city-states know the power of iron tools, they will have sales."

...

Amy couldn't speak for a moment. She was angry just now, but at most she thought about it, she just burned all the shops. No matter what, this was just a businessman's problem and could not be raised at the diplomatic level. But these staff members were more radical than the other.

"Three of us, three of us," Estrard shouted irritably, "What do you mean? Fight or not?"

"I think I can conquer the city first."

"I feel so, too."

"I think that's possible, too."

At the end of the meeting, the three staff members made an unanimous decision with three votes - no matter what, they will conquer the city first.

"No, do you really want to fight..."

Just as Amy was hesitating, a pirate ran back: "Report, the city gate is closed! Our request to enter the city state has been denied!"

“What? Why?”

"The defenders on the city wall shouted at us, accusing us of causing a large-scale riot when we first entered the street! They also said that although Tratoani was not there, after discussion by the elders, they decided to forbid us to enter the city-state forever!"

"Have we said that we bought inferior goods?"

"I said it! But the other person didn't answer at all, and threw us with a spear! They also said that idiots who can't even tell the difference between good and bad goods should not go to business, it's better to be slaves for them!"

It seemed that a string had broken. Amy lowered her head and let out a terrifying sneer.

"I'm so patient... Why are there so many fools in this world?"

"It's too much!" Estrard shouted first, "Chief of Staff, I will lead the team to attack now!"

"No." Amy shook her drooping head, "Retreat first, let's take some time to prepare."

"Preparation?" Estrard shouted: "I had already confirmed their armed forces when I entered the city before. A small tribe like this doesn't need to be prepared at all!"

"We still need to prepare. We are here to trade and we have to keep the casualties to the minimum limit."

"The enemy has bullied us!" Estrard stood up and shouted, "Chief of Staff, are you afraid?"

"I'm afraid? Estrard, I'm afraid the people I've killed are ten times as good as yours."

Amy raised her head. The flames around her had dissipated, but the striking sight in her eyes was even more terrifying than before.

"Aztland is in the war in the north. At this window period, it is not impossible to fight. But our goal is not to take down this city-state, nor to kill people. In that case, even if we vent our anger, it will cause us and His Majesty a lot of unnecessary trouble. What we want is to establish our authority... Let all city-states understand the gap in strength, so that we can less conflict. And just conquering a city-state will not play this role, do you understand?"

The staff looked at each other and said, "What should we do?"

How to do it.

Yes, Ella is not here now, and it is her Amy herself who has to decide what to do.

It would be simple if we act directly according to the opinions of the staff team. This was an agency established by Ella himself and authorized, which was the result of discussion among the public. Even if something went wrong in the end, Amy didn't need to feel guilty about it.

But...that probably won't work.

"What would you do if it was Your Majesty?

Amy fell into thinking.

The first order she gave was to disband the siege of the city-state so that they would not be alert.

The pirates broke into pieces and wandered around the city-state. Only Amy gathered a team of fully armed soldiers to guard against the city-state's sudden attack.

And the second order is to build a trencher.

This is an extremely powerful weapon, without causing a large number of casualties, and is most suitable for achieving Amy's strategic goals.

And this is also the last stable day for this city-state.

When the residents of the city-state entered and exited, they could see pirates lifting their sleeves to log wood on the nearby hills.

"What are you doing?"

From time to time, passers-by merchants asked so curiously.

"Cut down the tree!"

"What are you cutting down the trunk?"

"Make a trencher!"

“What is a trencher?”

"You don't understand even if you say it!"

The Aztlans still don't know what the trencher is, but just looked at the pirates' axes and exclaimed:

"It's very fast to work with this thing."

Some guards also came to expel them: "Scared! Let you leave here, what are you trying to do here?"

So some pirates at work wiped their sweat and looked up: "We don't let them do business, and we are not allowed to build a few wood carvings outside the city? Are you looking for trouble?"

The guards looked at the trencher that was halfway through, and they didn't look like a wood carving. When they went back to report to the local elders, the elders ran to the city wall to watch it themselves. With their full life experience, they couldn't figure out what this was.

After a discussion, they decided to do something and come to Amy to collect the wood fee.

Amy surrendered generously. Seeing the cocoa beans she got, the people in the city were even more confused, and they couldn't figure out what they were selling in the gourds of these foreigners.

"Don't worry about them, strengthen the garrison!"

In the end, they could only give such orders to the guards to masturbate.

The pirates built siege weapons under the noses of the city-state. The pirates on the flying ship of the Zelans were already good at making trenchers. Ten days later, five simple trenchers stood outside the city.

"There are some things about the catapults in the past few days, it should have been circulated through the caravan."

Amy gathered the troops again and gathered under the city-state. Unlike at any time before, she still had no fire on her body, but just walked back and forth in the crowd coldly.
