king.

In the camp of the Chinese army, a group of high-level generals gathered on the front line, plus the foreign minister of the kingdom, to discuss the impact of changes in the mainland situation on the kingdom.

It's not that Hudson overstepped and wanted to grab the job of Caesar IV.It is true that the war in northern Xinjiang has not really ended, and a group of high-level generals cannot return to the capital to participate in the discussion.

As a shareholder of the kingdom, even if people can't drive back, they have to express their position.

In order to avoid suspicion, Hudson invited Earl Francis, the Minister of Foreign Affairs who was in charge of negotiations, to come along.

The issues involved are too big, and it must be done with caution.Among the 32 provinces of the kingdom, there are eighteen governors on the front line.It is conceivable how much influence this meeting had on the kingdom's final decision.

Having full wings doesn't mean jumping out to fight against the king.Hudson is not going to set foot in court, as long as he maintains the right to speak in the army is enough.

If Hudson extends his tentacles to the political arena again, I am afraid that Caesar IV will not be able to sleep peacefully for a long time in the future.

"The news of the truce in Central China, I think everyone has received it.

Originally, there was no need to convene everyone to discuss this kind of matter, but last night, the Kingdom's ambassador to Frank activated the magic circle of communication.

The latest round of the Human Race Alliance Council has made a decision not to impose sanctions on the three countries in the Central Mainland.

The proposal of a truce with the alien alliance was also proposed, but it was rejected by the alliance because the voice of opposition was too loud.

What this means, presumably everyone should know!

The Continental War is coming to an end, and it is time for the kingdom to make a choice.If you have any thoughts, please take this opportunity to speak up! "

Hudson said blankly.

Everything is expected.The major forces of the human race are now full and lack the motivation to continue the war.

The situation of the Alien Alliance is similar. Except for the two unlucky ones who were destroyed, the rest of the races have gained a lot.

The winners have achieved phased victories, and it is difficult to obtain greater benefits if they continue to fight. Naturally, it is time to settle down.

The big powers don't want war, and no matter how much a group of ruined small countries shout, it can't change the overall situation.

There was no immediate truce negotiation with the alien alliance. It was because several giants took into account the influence that they deliberately took care of the positions of representatives of the small countries.

It's not that I don't know, I was shocked by the count.The Seven Kingdoms of the Grassland + the Warhammer Kingdom of East and West + the Principality of Orton + the Duke of Ruilin + the Duke of Kantruo + the Duke of Ustad + the Duke of Fick + the Duke of Glint + the Duke of Nadal, there are sixteen countries in the northern continent alone. destruction.

Together with the fifteen unlucky ones in the mainland, a continental war directly buried 31 human countries, a new record in history.

"Marshal, the alliance doesn't want to fight now, what about the countries that unfortunately perished in the war?"

Duke Hiero asked eagerly.

It's not about the life and death of countries, but the handling of this matter will directly affect the future international situation.

If the destroyed countries cannot be restored, then only the Alpha Kingdom and the Principality of Moxi will remain in the Northern Continent, and even the land transportation to the Central Continent will be cut off by alien races.

Anyone with a little bit of military common sense knows how much pressure the kingdom will face on defense next.

At that time, there will be alien races in the west of the kingdom, alien races in the south, and the northern border will be a powder keg. The scene is unimaginable.

"I'm not very familiar with diplomatic issues. Count Francis should answer this question!"

Whoever asks, Marshal Hudson doesn't understand diplomacy today.Perhaps for a long time to come, he will show others that he does not understand diplomacy or politics.

Believe it or not, it doesn't matter at all.On many political issues, the form is more important than the truth.

This gesture was mainly for the king and royalists, showing that he had no intention of being a minister in power.

When the war is over, if you resign from your position and return to the territory with the benefits you deserve, the matter will be over.

As long as Caesar IV's mind is not broken, he will push Hudson to a "moral high position" to confess, and the various political storms and power reshuffles in the country will try to avoid involving him as much as possible.

Unless there is a candidate in the army who can replace Hudson, this detached position will continue until the kingdom's strategic hidden danger disappears.

"Duke Hiero, your understanding is biased. The continental war will stop, and it will continue for a long time.

Even if an armistice treaty is signed, it will only be in the dark.On the surface, the human race will not recognize every inch of land occupied by the foreign race alliance, and the foreign race alliance will also not recognize the achievements of our human race countries.

As for the countries that were tragically destroyed, it is very regrettable.In the future, all parties will play down this topic, and even the Human Race Alliance Council will not be held again in a short time. "

Earl Francis' explanation shocked everyone.It never occurred to me that the alliance representing the interests of the human race could actually do such a shattering thing, which is completely challenging everyone's perception.

The only one who didn't respond was Hudson in the main seat.He has seen many strange operations.The choice of the Terran Alliance is already considered responsible.

In essence, in this war, the two sides will win and lose each other.From the perspective of the long-term interests of the race, the human race still has an advantage.

The alien alliance now seems to be majestic and powerful, but in fact it is leaking everywhere.

It is barely enough for a multi-ethnic alliance to share adversity, let alone share wealth.Even if the various races are able to suppress conflicts due to the threat of the human race, strategically they still lack a stable rear.

There is no trace of them in the Southern Continent, and the Central Continent and the Northern Continent are not completely occupied by them.If the various clans cannot recover their strength quickly, the next continental war will be their end.

"Count Francis, according to this inference, does it also mean that the next chaos in the northern continent can only be faced by ourselves?"

Marquis Zuel asked nervously.

Without the support of the Human Race Alliance, facing the chaos in the Northern Continent alone, the kingdom is facing more serious defense pressure than it was five years ago.

Facing the mighty Orc Empire five years ago, only the provinces in the north faced the threat directly, but now they are being threatened by alien races on multiple fronts at the same time.

As the kingdom's rear, the southwestern provinces directly became the front line.This sudden reversal really challenges people's nerves.

"Your Excellency the Marquis's judgment is basically correct. The human race alliance has deteriorated, and it is completely hopeless now. The situation in the northern continent will mainly be supported by the kingdom alone.

The Principality of Moxi can share part of the pressure for us, but more often than not, they still need the support of the Kingdom. "

Earl Francis' words directly explained the embarrassing situation of the kingdom in diplomacy.This is not because the Ministry of Foreign Affairs does not work hard, but because of geopolitics.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Hudson knew that everyone was frightened.No matter how well-informed and well-informed, the situation can't stand the rapid deterioration.

"You don't have to worry too much, this change in the continent is both a challenge and an opportunity for the kingdom.

Breaking down the problems facing the kingdom, it's actually not as bad as everyone expected.

Although the Warhammer Kingdom in the northwest was destroyed, nearly half of its territory was still controlled by the human race.The ancient survivors were destroyed by us, and the trauma left by the war is enough for them to survive for decades.

The areas of several small countries in the southwest are temporarily controlled by the army of elves, and we are not sure about the issue of ownership for the time being.

Presumably, it was either handed over to a certain alien race in the Central Continent, or it was annexed by the elves.No matter who we hand it over to, the pressure we face will not be too great.

The elves are sparsely populated, and it is impossible to station a large number of troops on the border.As long as the lords on the border are honest and don't let the slave traders go to do things, it is rare to encounter an elf invasion in 100 years.

If it falls into the hands of other alien races, then there is no need to worry.We fight on multiple fronts, and they are also neighbors of the Kingdom of Hesse.

In terms of military strength, apart from the elves, orcs, and dwarves, the rest of the alien races are not opponents of the kingdom.

The only unsolvable ones are the orcs, and I don't think everyone has thought about reconciling with the orcs.As long as the foreign races don't come together, the kingdom can still stand alone against the severely weakened orc empire.

End the war as soon as possible, and recuperate with the people. The next thing everyone competes is recovery speed.

Not wanting to fall into strategic passiveness in the future, the Kingdom must launch an Eastern Expedition on the prairie before the five royal families regain their strength.

Earl Francis, tell everyone the result of the negotiation, so that they can feel at ease! "

Hudson said pretending to be calm.

It is fine to use some words to comfort others, but you cannot follow them.The aliens are not stupid, how could they watch the Alpha Kingdom deal with the orcs.

The Alpha Kingdom has been strategically passive since its establishment.

Local wars can also be manipulated. Once a full-scale war is launched against the orcs, the alien alliance will definitely intervene.

It can be said unceremoniously that in the days to come, the nobles of the kingdom must live frugally and carry out their militarism to the end.

"The negotiations went very smoothly, the orcs agreed to return all the territory of the kingdom and retreat at least five hundred miles.

Calculated from the agreed time, at this time, the orc army is already on the way to evacuate.

The Northern Border War has come to an end. In a short period of time, everyone does not have to worry about the threat of orcs.

After the orc army withdraws, the entire Near East will be brought under the kingdom's rule.

Next, the kingdom will rebuild the northern border defense line. If you have any ideas, you can put them forward to the kingdom. "

If Count Francis hadn't mentioned the ownership of sovereignty, Hudson would have thought it was a miracle in the history of diplomacy.

Obviously, this benefit comes with bubbles.Whether the Near East can be included in the kingdom's rule depends mainly on strength.

The contraction of the orc empire does not mean that they are afraid, but a strategic need.Today is different from the past, the army has been confronting the border for a long time, and the orc empire simply cannot afford it.

Simply retreat a little more, leaving a vacuum area.Anyway, now their population has declined sharply, and a large area of ​​land is deserted and neglected, not bad for the land on the border.

Even if the land is lost to the Alpha Kingdom, it will not be able to develop it for a while.When you regain your strength, you can grab it back.

After a brief absence, a group of high-ranking generals reacted one after another.But even knowing that there is a pit, it doesn't affect the kingdom's choice.

The land bonds issued need to be cashed, and the meritorious officials need to be rewarded, all of which require land.

The loss of this war is not big, there are not so many unclaimed lands in the country, everyone can only come to the Near East to open up wasteland.

Whether it can gain a firm foothold is a matter for the future, and we must first solve the immediate problems before we talk about it.

……

Duke Daniel took a longing look at the camp of the orc army, and heaved a deep sigh as the camp was constantly being demolished.

At this time, the empire chose to temporarily avoid the enemy's edge, whether it was right or wrong, he couldn't understand.

It's just that there is a voice in his heart that keeps reminding him that it will be difficult to revisit the old place after retreating now.

During the war, many problems were suppressed.Now that the war is over, it's time to erupt.

The first to bear the brunt was the Bimon Imperial Court, which was sparsely populated, and was eaten by an expeditionary army during the war.

The loss of [-] to [-] members of other big clans may not be a big deal, but for the Bimeng clan, it is a serious injury.

Originally, their population had been severely reduced, but now that there is another wave, the number of remaining tribesmen is actually only one-third of what it was five years ago.

With such a small number of clansmen, no matter how strong their fighting power is, they cannot suppress the ambitious people below.

What's more, the current Beamon Army is not the former Beamon Army.In order to ensure the number of troops, they were forced to turn all the people into soldiers, at the cost of a plummeting combat effectiveness.

If the Behemoth Legion at its peak, although it is not as good as the Warcraft Legion created by the Alpha Kingdom, it will definitely be richer if it is exchanged with ordinary soldiers in the Expeditionary Legion.

Now the situation is reversed. With equal strength, the Beamon cavalry, whose combat effectiveness has declined, will probably suffer a big loss when they encounter the expeditionary army.

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, delivered directly to your door.If the powerful races below do not attack the position of the imperial court, they deserve to be cannon fodder.

The other four royal families were able to Rabbimon once, but they couldn't pull them a second time.

If you keep supporting them, it will cut off the hope of all the tribes below.The dissatisfaction accumulated by the various clans has nowhere to vent, and will eventually surge towards the five royal clans.

It doesn't make any sense to talk about the overall situation with the cannon fodder race that has been squeezed for a long time.Anyway, they are not vested interests, no matter how bad the situation is, that's all.

Thinking of the Bemon Emperor Alex, who proposed at the meeting that "the orc empire needs a major reform", Daniel shook his head.

Everyone has long studied the problems exposed by the empire.The call for reform has always existed.But when it came to specific actions, everyone was dumbfounded.

The five royal families who hold the right to speak are all vested interests under the current rule system.Reform is cutting one's own flesh to meet the interests of the various ethnic groups below.

"Come on, Daniel!
Empires have failed dozens of times here, and it wouldn't hurt to add one more.Facing a stubborn enemy like the Alpha Kingdom, you must learn to adapt.

When it's time to let go, you have to let go.We failed this time, and we still have next time, and next time.

The current situation on the mainland is very beneficial to the empire.We will not fight alone when wars are waged in the future! "

The Silver Moon Wolf Emperor said encouragingly.

He valued this son very much.Although he failed to defeat Hudson, Daniel's command ability is still second to none in the empire.

Choosing an heir who can fight is of great strategic significance for stabilizing the status of the Silver Moon Wolf Clan.Can't let Daniel be crippled by blows.

"Don't worry, father! I can still bear some setbacks. I'm just thinking about domestic affairs now."

Daniel's words made the Silver Moon Wolf Emperor calm down quickly.

It's good if you don't get knocked down. Only after experiencing setbacks can you grow better.Famous generals are tempered from adversity.

"Don't think too much, domestic issues are already very complicated. If you think too much, things will become more complicated.

The turmoil lasted for a while, but it still didn't reach us.When the situation is unclear, it is better to wait and see the situation first. "
