Finalizing the Deal (Part-End)

Metztil mulled over the various excuses Alexander presented to him to try and justify the 'displacement' of his men.

And even after racking their head, the gathered delegation found the three reasons provided too robust to rebut.

They of course tried to haggle even then, but Alexander had come prepared. 

He especially used the destruction the natives had caused while marching to repeatedly deny all their claims and insisted that they be scattered in groups of a few hundred.

And as Alexander cleverly unveiled his net, it got to the point that Metztil began to quickly suspect whether that was Alexander's plan all along.

To use the facade of generosity and let them do whatever they wanted just to trick them into riling the common people up against them and then use this excuse to divide them.
