The King - Chapter 411

In the Emerald Palace, the top officials of the kingdom gathered together again, and the atmosphere was oppressive and suffocating.

It’s really “what to be afraid of, what to do”.

Alpha Kingdom has been trying to stabilize the elves and prevent them from joining the war, but unfortunately they still failed.

The army of elves did not come over, but the elves and magicians appeared on the battlefield first.

“The elves joining the war is both unexpected and reasonable.

From the moment they refused to sign a non-aggression treaty with the kingdom, everyone knew the result in their minds. Now it is nothing more than the fact that they joined the war earlier.

Magicians have a special status in the army, and they have always been the focus of protection by all parties, and the probability of death is relatively small.

From the standpoint of the elves, sending magicians to help allies fight is actually a very cost-effective behavior.

Joining the war ahead of time, perhaps the elves are aware of the danger and realize that this continental war is different from the past. ”

Hudson took the lead in breaking the silence.

No matter how uncertain he is, at a time like this, he, the commander in chief of the army, cannot panic.

The unity of the kingdom is based on the premise that we can overcome the crisis by helping each other. If there is no hope in sight, everyone will inevitably have to fend for themselves in advance.

Looking at the performance of the dignitaries of various countries on the front line, one can tell that those big nobles have secretly transferred some of their children long ago, and those who appeared on the battlefield were only the apparent power of each family.

If everyone is willing to work hard, the coalition forces on the western front will not be scared back again and again by a few forbidden spells.

Although the magician group sent by the elves is powerful, they did not exceed the limit after all.

The large-scale magic cast by the magic circle cannot stop once it starts.

Otherwise, under the backlash of the forbidden curse, the people in the main formation will almost certainly die, and the rest of the casters will be seriously injured if they don’t die.

If the coalition forces are willing to work hard, they can directly rush out to fight the enemy bloody. They don’t expect to defeat the enemy, they just need to get closer to destroy the spell.

Anyway, it’s only a short distance away, and the enemy’s magician can’t run away during the casting process. Even if the enemy desperately intercepts it, it’s nothing more than a life for a life.

It is completely feasible strategically to take away a group of magicians from the enemy with a large army with heavy losses.

As long as you do it a few times, the elves will definitely not be able to stand it. They just came to help, not to exchange lives with the Human Race coalition forces.

“Marshal, why the elves joined the war earlier is not important at all now.

The key is that if they participate in the war, the Western Front is doomed to fail.

Judging from the current situation, at most two months later, the Eastern Warhammer Kingdom will all fall.

Western Warhammer Kingdom is mountainous, and the situation is slightly better, but it doesn’t help the overall situation.

Once the Eastern Warhammer Kingdom is destroyed, the coalition forces of the Alliance of Ancient Remnants and the Elven Race can enter the Principality of Moxi and threaten the kingdom’s western front.

National countries in the northern continent can’t count on it. We have put in so much effort before, and the countries have only sent a small amount of reinforcements.

Now that the situation is collapsing, everyone will only take care of themselves.

Even if they know that after the front line collapses, the flames of war will burn on their own heads, and all countries can only take care of their own eyes first. ”

Duke Rodriguez said in a deep voice.

Don’t panic. Once the kingdom’s western front is threatened, the southwestern provinces must take care of their own safety first, and the orcs in the north can only be faced by themselves.

The newly recovered seven provinces of the kingdom seem to have a large territory, but the local emerging nobles are all in the stage of primitive accumulation of strength.

Being able to delay the enemy army for two or three months is because everyone is working hard, and the final pressure will still fall on the five major families in the Northland.

Die if you can’t stop it. With their embarrassing status in the kingdom’s aristocratic circle, there is no second way to choose.

Before they supported Hudson, the “enemy”, as the coach, the main reason was the strategy of first going north and then going west.

“Duke Rodriguez, what you said is not wrong at all. Under normal circumstances, the elves will definitely not be able to defend the Western Front.

But there are exceptions to everything. The coalition forces of the ancient survivors can attack the kingdom from the Principality of Moxi, and it is also possible to sweep across other countries in the Northern Continent from the Principality of Orton.

If the elves also send out large-scale troops to destroy the Principality of Kantruo, the Principality of Ustad, and the Principality of Fick, and the two go south after completing the reunion in the Principality of Orton, there will be no force in the North Continent to stop them.

The elves have a limited population and a limited demand for land. Even if there is ambition to expand, the three duchies of Cantrue, Ustad, and Fick together are enough for them to digest for many years.

The internal situation of the Remnants of the Ancients is more complicated, requiring a lot of land in the sun, but the Warhammer Kingdom can also choke them.

At that time, do you guess that they will join forces to invade the kingdom, or go south to help the alien alliance? ”

Under Hudson’s deliberate guidance, everyone looked much better.

The populations of the elves and the ancient survivors are not large, and neither of them has the strength to engulf the entire northern continent in a short period of time.

Theoretically speaking, even if they invaded the Alpha Kingdom, they were making wedding dresses for orcs.

However, for these theories to be established, there must be a premise—the elves really want to save the Alien Alliance, and they cannot waste too much time on the Alpha Kingdom.

“Marshal, if the kingdom is not the target of the elves, should we refuse the Mosi’s request for help?”

I don’t know if it’s because of political incompetence, or because he deliberately applied eye drops, but Duke Hiero’s question made Caesar IV very upset.

This kind of decision-making involving the life and death of the kingdom, why do you have to ask the king first, how can the marshal make the decision?

However, everyone’s focus is on Hudson, and there is no time to pay attention to his king’s thoughts.

He can only hold back his displeasure. If he is really asked to make a decision, Caesar IV will also panic.

When life and death are at stake, any misjudgment in any detail will bring huge losses to the kingdom.

“Reinforcements still need to be sent. Judging from the current situation, if there is no battle on the western front, it may be hard to be safe.

The specific number of troops to send and how to fight this battle will be decided after I meet with the envoys of the Mosi people to understand the details.

You don’t need to worry too much. Among the three major alien races in the Northern Continent, the weakest one is the Alliance of the Ancient Remnants.

Don’t look at them as a whole now, when they were huddled in the ice and snow world in the past, in order to compete for limited survival resources, there were many conflicts among them.

Our human race alliance can’t unify the interests and appeals. I don’t believe that the alliance composed of many ancient races can reconcile internal conflicts.

Before taking down the Eastern Warhammer Kingdom, they still had a common goal. Once they took it down, the situation changed.

Maybe some races want to go further and get a wider living space; but there are also many races that are satisfied with the status quo and just want to get a piece of fertile land to recuperate.

During consecutive victories, these internal contradictions can still be suppressed, but once a major defeat occurs on the battlefield, the contradictions will be exposed.

Unless the foreign race alliance wins this continental war and pulls our human race from the position of the continent’s overlord, otherwise no foreign race will want to be our neighbor! ”

Hudson said pretending to be calm.

If you don’t understand the situation, you may think that the Alpha Kingdom is sure of victory and can destroy the coalition forces of the ancient survivors at any time.

In fact, Hudson has no idea how many reinforcements should be sent now and how to fight this battle.

It wasn’t that he was incompetent, it was mainly because he rushed to the palace as soon as he received the news, and he didn’t even have a half-knowledge of the situation on the front line.

Strategies and decisions are made thousands of miles away, which is based on an in-depth understanding of the enemy.

The information in Hudson’s hands now is still the content collected by the kingdom before. The situation is changing so fast, who can guarantee that the current alliance of the ancient survivors is still the original loose alliance?

Including the understanding of the elves, intelligence work is also very lagging.

In the extraordinary world, many things cannot be deduced by just using benefit analysis and inherent logic.

If the legendary elf goddess issues an oracle, the elves who are addicted to art can also become killing machines.

Or some treasure is obtained, which increases the fertility of the elves, and they will immediately become the main force fighting for the hegemony of the mainland.

Or a cult organization doing something to confuse the officers on the front line can also cause a change in the situation.

“In addition to the problem on the western front, the problem on the southeast coast has also arrived. The Holy See fleet has already set off and is expected to arrive in half a month.

We have released the rumors, and the momentum has been built for the Holy See, but it is still unknown whether they will enter the misty sea.

Marshal, you fought a ghost ship. If the Holy See’s fleet meets them in the misty sea, how much trouble can it cause the Holy See? ”

From the new white hair on Earl Pierce’s head, Hudson knew that he hadn’t worried much recently.

Thinking about it is right, the Holy See treasure hunting fleet is missing, and they are the number one suspects.

As long as the Holy See pursues it, sooner or later it will be traced to the Dalton family fleet.

Although it was Hudson who did the trick, no one would believe this kind of thing!

Besides, they were not completely uninvolved. At least they destroyed the pirate ship, cut off the return of the treasure hunting team, and incidentally shared the credit for contributing the artifact to the kingdom.

With this credit, when the Holy See is established in the future, they will most likely be able to add the word “Holy” before the family title.

It is also a matter of course for the recommended personnel to obtain a high position in the new Holy See.

The benefits are all predetermined, so the revenge of the Holy See will naturally be inevitable.

For the sake of their own safety, it is undoubtedly the best choice for the kingdom to stand in front of the Holy See.

There are no surprises. Hudson is behind the action plan against the Holy See. In essence, the two are singing a double reed.

“Don’t worry, those three ghost ships are not easy. Ordinary attacks have no lethality to them at all.

In particular, they also have a set of secret methods that can elevate the three ghost kings to the sanctuary level in a short period of time. Coupled with the characteristics of the ghost itself, it is almost impossible to sneak attack on ordinary eighth-level powerhouses.

At sea that day, dozens of warships cooperated, but we were unable to keep them.

After entering the sea of ​​mist, the magic crystal cannon can’t aim at the target, and the warship is almost like an ordinary merchant ship.

Even if there are many magicians accompanying the Holy See, they can dispel the fog, but they cannot resist the continuous flow of fog.

Especially at night, I am afraid that the ghost ship is approaching, and they may not be able to find it in time.

The ghost ship is not destroyed, and the ghost is not destroyed.

Fighting these immortal monsters, once the magic crystal cannon cannot be used, ordinary soldiers are useless at all.

If you want to destroy the ghost ship, you can only cast a destructive single-target forbidden spell.

The ghosts are not stupid, they will run away if they can’t win. With the cover of thick fog, it is difficult for the forbidden spell to hit the target.

Regardless of whether the ghost ship can be wiped out, the Holy See’s fleet will suffer heavy losses. If they are unlucky and get lost in it, or break into the dangerous unknown unknown sea area, the whole army may be wiped out.

All we need to do is make up the knife at the critical moment. If the loss of the Holy See fleet is not large, then temporarily terminate the plan. ”

Hudson tried his best to fool him.

Let the ghost ship “rob” the Holy See fleet by itself, there must be no chance of winning, but he is the manipulator behind the scenes!

Now we need to strengthen the confidence of the kingdom, let everyone work hard to lure the enemy into the misty sea.

The greater the Holy See’s losses, the greater the Hudson’s gains. Feeding the ghost ship is second, the key is to be able to make the danger of the misty sea deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

No one dared to go, it became his back garden.

Such a large sea area, it is impossible to have no value at all. At worst, there is also a hidden overseas base where some shady things can be stored.

…

On the grassland, the orc army suddenly stepped up its offensive, and the pressure on the surviving human nations increased greatly.

Philip I was very speechless at the moment. The orcs seemed to have a life-and-death enmity with him.

The reason is very clear to him. It is nothing more than that they control the only large port on the prairie. Only by taking this place can they cut off the support of the Human Race Alliance.

“The orcs are crazy, and they don’t give us a chance to breathe.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has to hurry up. Our negotiations with the Alpha Kingdom must be accelerated. If it is slower, it will soon become the Four Kingdoms of the Grassland! ”

Philip I said angrily.

An out-of-control diplomatic dispute broke his evacuation plan. Deep down, he has already greeted all the dignitaries of the Alpha Kingdom.

But there is no way, the negotiation must continue. Every time one more force is withdrawn, the odds of winning the country will increase by one point in the future.

If the fight is complete, even if the country is really restored in the future, he will not be able to control the situation.

“Your Majesty, the fleet of the Holy See has already gone north, and the Alpha people should not dare to block the route. Can we…”

Before the Minister of Foreign Affairs finished speaking, Philip I interrupted; “They will not block the route, they will just cause accidents to our fleet.

For example: the ghost ship they are besieging is the best object to blame.

What’s more, people from the Holy See can be trusted?

Even their existence is a threat in itself!

Don’t forget where we come from.

In the eyes of the Holy See, you and I are heretics. ”

Irrationality is not acceptable, my brother is a strongman who declared the pope illegal. Being on the front line of the confrontation between monarchy and theocracy, there is no possibility of any relaxation between the two sides.

No matter how ugly the food in the Alpha Kingdom was, they didn’t dare to kill him. They even entertained him with good wine and meat, and sent him back to the country according to the rules.

fell into the hands of the Holy See, lucky enough to become a bargaining chip, unlucky and directly buried in the sea.

The crime of regicide is personally stressful, but the wind and waves at sea don’t matter.

It is not difficult for the Holy See to create an accidental killing of chickens and monkeys.

“Your Majesty, if you want to speed up the progress of the negotiations, you must make major concessions.

The Alpha people’s fleet has appeared in the open sea, waiting to receive refugees. If I release a little sincerity first, it will be of great help to the subsequent negotiations. ”

Dony suggested along the way.

The fleet did come, but it did not represent the Alpha Kingdom, but a fleet temporarily hired by Master Hudson.

Stealing people has always been quick, but slow. Hudson, who is familiar with the rules of the game, will naturally plan ahead.

At this time, it is necessary to test the relationship between people.

As the head of logistics during the war against the Orc Empire, Hudson’s social circle is not small. Doni, who also participated in the last war, had a little relationship with Hudson because he had received food and grass a few times.

In normal times, such a relationship is useless, but the situation is different now.

Dony didn’t want to destroy his family property that he had painstakingly accumulated, and Hudson also focused on the refugees from the prairie countries. The representatives of the two parties communicated in private, and they hit it off and finalized the cooperation.

Philip I, who didn’t know that the people under his hand had made a deal, only thought it was needed for negotiations, naturally would not reject such a proposal that would help solve the problem.

“Then send them some refugees first, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will handle the specific situation at its own discretion. Everything is in the interests of the kingdom!”
