Chen Jiujing failed to see Bourbon Henry as soon as possible. He had two things to do.

The night before, his scout fought against Billon's scouts in the woods on the right bank of Bordeaux. A light-packed unit of two hundred men tried to move from the south to the coast, but was defeated by the Jurchen cavalry camping outside under Conguru.

Early in the morning, Billon sent a rider holding the iron-eating beast to negotiate the return of the prisoners and tried to persuade Chen Jiujing to withdraw from Bordeaux and leave France.

First, he had to meet the messengers of Billon; secondly, five ships were brought from the Protestants of Shelloral in the north of Bordeaux, and were estuated by the estuary of the north of the city, saying that they would provide some support from England to the King of Navarra.

The Iron Eating Beast Flag in Billon's hand was sent by a knight from the Chen Jiujing Sect. They communicated more easily, and they clearly expressed the meaning of this flag to Billon: surrender, armistice and peace.

But Billon's envoy did not come to see him. At this moment, Marshal Billon of France also believed that Chen Jiujing of the Ming Empire was no different from Toledo in Spain. They were both mercenaries found by Queen Margo. He believed that the key to the matter was still in the hands of Margo.

The meeting between the two sides was an empty house in Bordeaux. The reason was that Chen Jiujing was unwilling to meet Billon in the middle of the battlefield by following other people's rules, and he was even more unwilling to let Margaret run to a dangerous place. Billon had no other choice, so he had to send a viscount who knew Margaret to bring his advice to Bordeaux.

The roads passed by the messenger were strictly regulated and designed. Chen Jiujing deliberately asked him to pass through the streets where the Huguenots lived, and withdrew the Baishan Camp and the Restoration Army on the city, replaced Bourbon and Henry with simple equipment and injured rebels standing on the city wall.

He hoped that the messenger would provide Billon with some information after he returned and lure him to attack the city again.

Chen Jiujing said to Margaret when he arranged all this: "If you defeat them again, you will have no power to fight again."

In fact, it is gone now. The soldiers who can still fight in Billon are less than 10,000. They fight hard and only enter the first line of defense. They are obviously facing the dilemma of insufficient troops.

"Queen, I didn't expect that you could still see your beautiful face when you left the Louvre." On this little second floor, which is enough to be called the house's silence, the messenger sent by Billon could easily find Margaret's figure, and saluted everyone and said, "I bring Marshal Billon's negotiations on the war."

Although Chen Jiujing sat in the middle, the messenger's words were said to Margaret.

After all, in their eyes, Queen Navarra Margaret is the protagonist.

Margaret looked at Chen Jiujing, and the young general was concentrating on fiddling with his pipe. A soldier who was proficient in two Western French languages ​​was translating beside him. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Old acquaintance?"

"may be."

The queen turned her head and said to the messenger: "Thank you for your praise, but... who is your priest, where have we seen it?"

Such words will undoubtedly cause embarrassment. At least Chen Jiujing frowned when he heard it, but the viscount seemed to be right, and still maintained the pretentious smile, lowered his head slightly and said, "In Paris, at the king's dance."

"Which dance party... forget it, that doesn't matter." Margaret rubbed her forehead. She couldn't get up any longer. She simply asked straightforwardly: "What are you trying to talk about by Marshal. Is he ready to surrender?"

"I'm afraid there are not yet. We still have many soldiers. The Kingdom's three-way marshal, Dofinet, has been surrounded by the Marshal Mayena, and Picardi's rebels were also besieged in the city. Soon a continuous stream of troops drove towards Bordeaux."

The messenger said this and deliberately paused for a moment before laughing at Queen Margo, "The Marshal believes that at this moment, the Queen will lead the army loyal to you to leave Bordeaux and withdraw from this rebellion and receive the most decent treatment."

"you're right."

Margaret agreed very much in his words, but his expression was not the case. He raised his fingers and waved them gently, paused twice, and said, "It sounds like Marshal Mayen and Marshal Mation, who besieged Picardi, are both siegeing, which is very dangerous."

"But is their siege as I understand it, or is it the siege of Marshal Billon like this and hedged thousands of bodies and retreated to a place where I could not see it?"

"You have the wisdom that matches beauty." The messenger said with a smile on his face: "Of course it is the kind of siege you think. The situation is not good. Prince Condé of Picardy has entered Germany when he sees the situation is not good. Rafell is surrounded by the king's army. The army is sufficient, the weather is also good, and the siege is very easy."

"Although King Navarra has a great reputation among the rebels, people do not believe in his command ability. Many places did not rebel as agreed. This war was hopeless. The queen withdrew at this time. As long as the city of Bordeaux and the prisoners are left, Marshal Billon is willing to agree to a ceasefire, leaving a month for the queen to retreat calmly."

Margaret kept nodding while listening, as if she had been persuaded, but at the end she said very seriously: "Thank you for your sincere advice. This means that only the only marshal of the three routes, Mr. Billon is not doing well enough, and he should be very anxious."

"You said you will get a large number of reinforcements soon, which means that at this moment, no reinforcements are coming; the Marshal is willing to agree to a ceasefire, which means he has no confidence in defeating us in a short time."

"Look, just listen to the same words in the opposite direction. All the advantages you mentioned are the flowers in the mirror and the moon reflected in the water, which are meaningless."

As he said that, Margaret turned to Chen Jiujing and threw a little look waiting for praise, and turned to the messenger and said, "But I am willing to sign an armistice agreement. As long as the royal army is a little further away from Bordeaux and do not cross the southern bank of the Dordogne River, we will not attack the Marshal. He can do what he wants."

The messenger opened his mouth and closed his mouth helplessly. How should he describe to Queen Navara that Marshal Billon's most wanted to do was send troops into the city of Bordeaux?

Chen Jiujing, who was about tossing the pipe to stop this embarrassing negotiation, sat down and said, "Okay, even if you have been beaten, don't pretend to have enough strength. Don't use the marshals of the Three Routes to scare me. If you have the ability, let all the three teams of soldiers come over. Chen is waiting here, not half a step away from Bordeaux until the war is over."

"When will Billon surrender, when will the battle end? Go back and tell Billon that the pasta iron beast flag is for you to surrender. I don't need to negotiate. If I don't surrender, go back to prepare for the war."

"Tell the marshal again that whenever he intends to surrender, I will allow him to leave artillery, muskets, ammunition and armor, and lead the army to leave calmly."
