Idle game leads to another world
Chapter 1491 Raising the Banner
Flavia, the fugitive princess of Subia, is a very useful card.
She is a member of the royal family of Subia and a strong contender for the new Demon King.
Unlike her brother who is obsessed with court politics, Flavia, as a woman, knows that it is difficult for her to win the support of the nobles from her brother.
So she chose to take the civilian route.
A beautiful princess still has advantages after all, at least at first glance, she is more attractive. In addition to Flavia's deliberate approach to the people, the civilians of the entire Subia Demon Kingdom have a very high opinion of her.
She already has a popular base, so it stands to reason that she should still have some chances in the final struggle for the position of Demon King.
But someone is behind the scenes, and directly made a coup to help Flavia's brother ascend to the position of Demon King.
For Flavia, it doesn't matter whether she can become the Demon King or not. The problem is that you have deprived me of the opportunity to compete with you, which is absolutely not acceptable.
But under the premise that the situation is stronger than the person and the entire court is controlled, Flavia can only lead a few confidants to escape secretly by boat.
She chose to go to Avarus because she knew very well that Viola could recognize Flavia's value.
When the Count of the Subia Demon Kingdom proposed a negotiation request, Viola asked Flavia to come out very straightforwardly.
It can be seen that the Count was very surprised and did not expect to see the princess who was supposed to be far away in the capital here.
And Flavia was also very tactful. She first reprimanded the Count and then emphasized again that her brother Olaver's rule was illegal and an unfaithful and unjust coup.
The Count was already sweating profusely at the time. Of course he had heard about the coup, but now the dust has settled, what can a small Count say?
And the princess's words were obviously emphasizing the justice of Avarus.
As expected, after emphasizing, Flavia began to clearly tell the Count that our Subia's crime of invading Avarus must be repaid, but the person responsible for the repayment should not be her brother Olaver, a pseudo-emperor who is not worthy of being a demon king.
The army of Avarus is not here to collect debts, but to help neighboring countries to rectify their roots, resist the rule of the false emperor, and help Princess Flavia to clean up the court.
This is really unbelievable.
But this reason makes sense. As an excuse for war, it is much more grand than a war of revenge.
Moreover, the Subia Demon Kingdom has no excuse to avoid war at all. Unless they are willing to send Olaver, who is now sitting on the throne, to Viola, it is inevitable.
Flavia's existence is very useful. Not only can she clarify the justice and rationality of the march, but after conquering the territory, she can also appease the civilians in the name of the princess.
It is easy to conquer the territory, but someone has to watch it.
The reason why Viola was chased by the four-nation coalition two years ago was to strengthen management in the name of Viola, so as to annex Avarus more reasonably and legally and avoid endless security wars in the future.
The present is different from the past, but the principle remains the same. By borrowing the name of Flavia, Avarus can reasonably annex part of the territory of the Subia Demon Kingdom.
The Subia Demon Kingdom has a total of 11 provinces. Viola does not want much. What she wants most is the three provinces close to Avarus, at least one of which must be taken.
These three provinces are geographically closest to Avarus, and are separated from other provinces of the Subia Demon Kingdom by natural mountains. The convenient transportation makes it easier to digest and absorb.
In addition, by taking these three provinces, Avarus will have a new deep-water port and naval base. The territory seized from the Tandron Demon Kingdom can continuously bring high-quality wood, which can be used here to process and make ships, which can greatly promote maritime trade.
It may take decades to complete this step, but there is no doubt that the premise is to take the territory and firmly hold it in one's own hands.
The Subia Demon Kingdom certainly didn't want to fight. It was already at war with the Guatni Demon Kingdom in the south. If Avarus invaded from the north again, the Subia Demon Kingdom would be stuck in two directions.
They sent troops to the Tandron Demon Kingdom to keep the enemy out, but the progress was not smooth, so there was nothing they could do.
The people who came to negotiate were mentally prepared to cede land and pay compensation, but the appearance of Princess Flavia turned the matter from being a matter that could be solved by paying money into a difficult political issue.
The Count was completely unable to make the decision now, and he could only sweat profusely and say that he needed to ask his superiors for instructions.
Viola also generously said that you have three days to consider whether to open the city gate and let us in, or we will blast the city gate and step on your corpses to go in, one of the two.
This kind of request will definitely be fruitless, and Subia will not agree, and war will be inevitable.
The three days given by Viola seemed ample, but in fact it was to allow the fear in the hearts of the soldiers of the Subia Demon Kingdom to ferment fully.
Most of the soldiers of the Subia Demon Kingdom would be unable to sleep whenever they thought of the night outside the city of Qihang. The hundreds of thousands of troops were beaten to a pulp by the magnificent divine power, which has left a lifelong psychological shadow.
They don't want to experience it again.
This fear reappeared when they saw Avarus had arrived at their doorstep, but it would take time to reach its peak.
Now the soldiers also knew that the nightmare would come again in three days.
Fear will spread quickly in people's hearts like a plague. Whether the negotiations break down and the city is attacked directly, or some soldiers can't stand the fear and choose to surrender directly, it will be very beneficial to Viola.
Anyway, three days earlier or later will not have much impact on Viola's strategy, and it can also make the next siege easier, so why not do it?
It seems that Viola has indeed learned the concept of attacking the heart first and the city second in Sun Tzu's Art of War, and she is quite good at it.
The earl got on the carriage tremblingly, feeling like a dog chasing him, and ran back to the fortress.
It is estimated that the people in the fortress will not have an easy life in the near future.
Of course, Viola said that she gave three days, but these three days cannot just watch the show.
The soldiers in the fortress were very horrified to see that the Avarus army pulled out several special cannons, and they did not intend to attack the city, but just fired a few shots casually.
The 122mm shaped-energy cannon, even if it only fires the most basic high-explosive shells, its range and power are not comparable to the smoothbore iron ball cannon that is popular in Viola.
Viola didn't aim at the fortress, just randomly found a hilltop as a target, and didn't blast too many times, just fired a few shots and then pulled the cannon away.
The meaning is very clear, this is intimidation, if you don't give me a satisfactory result, then it won't be as simple as a few cannons hitting you in the face.
