Chapter 1001: How can we win this war?
Duke Rainbow thought that after his order was issued.
The feudal nobles who support him will obey his orders obediently.
Send troops to follow him north to rescue.
But the real situation was beyond his expectations.
"Your Excellency the Duke."
"Now is not the time!"
Duke Morales was the first to jump out and oppose.
He was the governor of the southeastern province.
It represents the interests of all the feudal nobles in the southeastern provinces.
The reason why everyone is willing to support Rainbow Duke.
This is because it can guarantee the interests of the fiefdom nobles.
So this time, the Southeast Province, the richest territory of the Alpha Kingdom.
Almost all of them support Rainbow Duke.
As for the current situation, the ninth prince has been beheaded.
All the nobles in the royal capital have sided with the Sixth Prince.
There has been news that the old king is about to issue an edict.
The sixth prince was appointed as the crown prince.
The intelligence they got.
The old king was almost dying.
After the crown prince is appointed, the six princes can succeed to the throne in five days at the shortest and ten days at the longest.
And at this critical moment, if they drew out their troops and followed Duke Rainbow to send troops north to the border.
What about the royal capital?
At this critical moment, the situation changes almost three times a day.
No one knows what will happen tomorrow.
So at this time.
Their army could not move.
Even the Rainbow Duke himself cannot leave.
This concerns the interests of all feudal nobles.
If they fail, they will surely be greeted with cruel measures from the new king.
After all, this time, they actually sent troops and stood opposite the king.
Morales's statement also represents the position of all feudal nobles.
After these words were spoken.
The nobles who were summoned all looked at the Duke of Rainbow.
The meaning is self-explanatory.
At this moment, Duke Rainbow's heart felt like it had fallen into ice water.
I felt a chill all over my body.
His palms were shaking slightly due to anger.
"You guys!"
Before he could finish his next words, he was interrupted by another noble.
"Musa!"
The name of the Rainbow Duke was called out directly.
"The Rainbow Lands is just a border territory."
"If it's lost, it's lost."
"After you become king, you will have the capital as your fiefdom."
"Isn't this better than that crappy place on the border?"
"If you want to be a king, you have to know the trade-offs."
"If you like that piece of land on the border, don't get involved in the fight for the throne."
"If I want everything, it will only hurt you."
The one who stepped forward was Earl Cowens.
He was born into a noble family in the three southwestern regions.
The place over there is desolate and barren.
They have to face attacks from barbarians in the mountains all year round.
Originally, that was the territory least likely to be reduced.
After all, the kingdom still relies on the nobles to keep the barbarians at bay.
But Cowens is a speculator.
He didn't want to stay in the Southwest.
After that, he got involved with the evil god.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he also joined the ranks of the fiefdom nobles.
The purpose is to move one's territory from the border to a prosperous place.
Compared to the euphemisms of other dukes.
Cowens was unceremonious.
The Rainbow Duke was originally shaking with anger.
Now the color is even more fierce.
"The Rainbow Land is the fiefdom of our ancestors."
"You want me to be this puppet."
"I can be one."
"But if I can't keep my fiefdom."
"Then don't blame me for not doing it!"
"You think you can control me."
"Humph!"
"Don't forget, my heavy-armored knights are not weak either."
"Cowens."
"You are like a dog, you are not worthy enough to teach me a lesson."
"Somebody come!"
Duke Rainbow shouted sharply.
Outside.
Dozens of knights in heavy armor rushed in.
"Catch this dog and kill it."
The Rainbow Duke was born in the border area, and the knights he trained were powerful enough to fight against orcs.
Whether it is the nobles around the royal capital or the nobles from the southeastern provinces and southwestern mountains.
Their military forces are often weaker than those of the border nobles in terms of combat effectiveness.
In the entire kingdom, the only army that can compete with the border nobles in terms of military strength is the legion trained by the king.
only!
When these heavily armored knights rushed in.
Ignored the orders of the Rainbow Duke.
Cowens sneered.
"Musa, you don't think you can still control those knights."
"These vassals of yours are no longer your people."
Upon hearing this, the Rainbow Duke's pupils suddenly opened wide.
"you?"
The heavily armored knight who rushed in was his confidant.
"No, you will not betray me."
"You followed my family at the border~"
Before he could finish his words, a heavily armored knight spoke up.
"Your Mightiness."
"I don't want to betray you either."
“But they gave too much.”
"Five hundred thousand gold coins, and a baronial fiefdom in the southeastern province."
"Our loyalty has a price."
This made the Rainbow Duke very angry.
"asshole."
"You betrayed the faith of a knight, and even more so the rules of a border knight."
"Have you forgotten the promise you made at the border?"
Then another knight said.
"Your Mightiness."
"We weren't the first to betray."
"You were the first to betray the nobles on the border."
"When Lord Tyr found you."
"How do you do it?"
"Border nobles are one. If you have the support of border nobles now."
"The Rainbow Territory will not be attacked."
"We have the military force of the border nobles to guarantee it."
"Who can regard you as a puppet?"
"But after you arrived at the outskirts of the capital, you deliberately cut off contact with them."
"They even said in private that the border nobles were all a bunch of country bumpkins."
"They have no right to own the Rainbow Land."
"Don't forget it, sir."
"Before we became your vassals, we were also the second sons of border nobles."
"You insulted the border nobles, and you insulted us."
"According to the rules of the border nobles, we are not betraying you."
“It’s an equal transaction.”
The Rainbow Duke was struck by lightning when he heard this.
Staggered twice.
Fell into the seat.
His face was full of fear and regret.
The other nobles laughed "Haha" upon seeing this.
Cowens even stepped forward to finish off the opponent.
"Musa, from now on, you have to remember this."
"Be your own puppet."
This is too explicit.
Morales next to him interrupted.
"Musa."
"We will not lose a cent that is yours."
“But now is the critical moment.”
"It's about the ownership of the throne."
"Your departure will make our investment go to waste."
"The invasion of orcs is a big deal for the entire kingdom."
"We can't stop the border nobles. We can only hand over the Rainbow Land to them for the time being."
"But I promise."
"As long as you can successfully become king."
"After you are crowned."
"I swear on my noble honor."
"I will support you in sending troops north to defeat the orcs."
"Reclaim the Rainbow Lands."
This gave Musa a way out.
If he doesn't know what's good for him.
I'm afraid I'll have to live under house arrest from now on.
So he could only say helplessly.
"it is good!"
But all the nobles could hear the unwillingness in these words.
And the Rainbow Duke's expression.
It also made some nobles feel anxious.
All the holy sons of the evil gods have already joined the feudal nobles.
After learning from the failure of the royal capital.
This time, the Holy Sons of the Evil God summoned all the nobles lurking in the Alpha Kingdom, regardless of their size.
A large number of nobles are under the command of the evil saints.
They soon occupied a large number of military officer positions among the feudal nobles.
without any exaggeration.
If you don't want to fight.
As long as the Holy Son of the Evil God does not agree, this war cannot be fought.
If they want to fight, they just need a little encouragement.
All-out war would break out immediately.
Occupying key positions, they are able to mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops to fight.
But even so.
The sons of the evil gods also do not feel safe.
Because they haven't found any trace of Fang Yuan so far.
Although it has been determined that Fang Yuan’s influence must exist in the royal capital.
But it has always been in the dark.
This made the sons of the evil god always worry that he would suddenly appear in front of them.
This concern is not without reason.
Whether in the Old World or in the secret realm.
None of them had ever defeated Fang Yuan.
Today, after hearing the news of the orc invasion.
The sons of the evil god can almost conclude it.
This is Fang Yuan's method.
As soon as the meeting at Rainbow Duke's end.
The holy sons of the evil god gathered together.
Start discussing the next plan.
"It seems that Fang Yuan's forces have penetrated deep into the orcs' territory."
"The orcs won't attack the border, they will attack the Rainbow Land directly."
"Fang Yuan is forcing Duke Rainbow to send back his troops for support."
"What a pity! He made all kinds of calculations but he didn't expect that we were one step faster and had already taken control of the Rainbow Duke's army."
"He has become a puppet and there is no possibility for him to lead the troops back to the border."
The Holy Son of the Dragon God said happily.
In his opinion, this was a victory over Fang Yuan.
The Holy Son of the Harvest Goddess beside her frowned.
"By doing this, Fang Yuan must have supported the Sixth Prince in the capital."
"This is to buy time for the Sixth Prince."
"I didn't expect Fang Yuan to choose the Sixth Prince."
"This is a prince who is difficult to control."
"With Fang Yuan's character, he shouldn't do such an unwise thing."
"Could it be that he has other backup plans?"
The Holy Son of the Sea God on the side said with disdain.
"Don't overestimate the enemy."
"Don't underestimate us either."
"Although I admit that Fang Yuan is very strong."
"But you have to know the special nature of this secret realm."
“Even a god cannot show up in this secret realm.”
"Fang Yuan's strength must have been suppressed to the extreme."
"Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to not appear all the time."
"They are all stirring up the situation in the dark."
The Holy Son of the Dragon God nodded.
"Makes sense."
"Now we have taken advantage of the situation to control so many armies of the Alpha Kingdom."
"In terms of strength comparison, we are the winner."
"It's understandable that Fang Yuan is anxious."
Optimism about these saints.
The Son of the Harvest Goddess was still worried.
He looked at the Shadow Warlock.
"Your Mightiness."
"Fang Yuan is cunning."
"We have to be on guard."
"I think the most urgent thing is to start the war as soon as possible."
"As long as the two sides fight."
"Whether we lose or not, it's a win for us."
"As long as the war starts and the power of the Alpha Kingdom is weakened, we will have achieved our goal."
The Shadow Warlock had fought against Fang Yuan's army before.
Basically, I lose more than I win.
So in this regard, he was as extremely cautious as the Son of the Goddess of Harvest.
After pondering for a while.
He spoke.
"Now we have infiltrated the feudal nobility."
"We already have the ability to encourage the feudal nobles to start a war."
"And currently, Fang Yuan has already taken action at the border."
"From this point of view, it seems that he has not yet completely controlled the capital and is confident of defeating us."
"At this point, we can't hesitate any longer."
"When it breaks, it breaks."
"Encourage the nobles to send troops to the capital immediately."
"Fighting for the throne."
“This time, as long as the two sides can fight.”
"No matter which side wins, we won't lose!"
"We are now in an undefeated position."
"So everyone!"
"This will be the easiest war we'll ever have."
"It will also be our most powerful counterattack against Fang Yuan in the secret realm."
"After this battle, Fang Yuan will definitely not be able to hide."
"He will definitely be exposed!"
Hear the Shadow Warlock's encouragement.
The Holy Sons present couldn't help but feel their hearts surge with emotion.
after all!
This was the first time they were able to defeat Fang Yuan.
Starting from the Old World, there were successive failures.
They have already lost some confidence.
Good thing!
Finally, there was a moment of redemption.
And as long as we can win this time.
What happens next will be just as the Shadow Warlock said.
Fang Yuan emerged from the darkness.
The strongest lord on the blue planet will become their prey in this secret realm.
Just kill him.
The other lords of Blue Star are nothing to be feared.
By then!
The Old World was theirs.
The Blue Star will also be theirs.
Everything will develop in the best direction.
into the night.
In the camps of the feudal nobles.
The nobles controlled by the evil holy sons began to advocate war.
In the camps of the fiefdom nobles in various places.
More and more nobles were aroused.
quickly!
The upper class nobles felt tremendous pressure.
war!
It seems to be inevitable.
And just when the evil saints began to accelerate the war.
at this time.
Heidi opened the demon eye.
In the pictures sent back.
The nobles drank the puppet potion one by one.
"Five hundred copies!"
"It's just right to control the duke and vassal who are guarding the capital."
“Without their support.”
"The legions of the feudal nobles are sandwiched between the capital and the fiefdoms."
"Your Excellency, you can eat whatever you want, whenever you want."
And just when Heidi completed the task.
Qing Feng's figure quietly appeared beside him.
"I just got the latest news from Duke Rainbow."
"Someone among the feudal nobles is inciting rebellion."
"Tomorrow at the earliest."
"The armies of the feudal nobles will attack the capital."
Heidi was not surprised by the news.
“It’s a little quicker than we thought.”
"My mission here is accomplished."
"When they take action, it's time for Your Excellency the Lord to deal with them."
"Qingfeng, in addition to this news, have you found any trace of the Evil God's Son?"
Qingfeng nodded.
“There have been some gains.”
"But I didn't alert them."
"Go back and give it to the Lord, and let him decide what to do."
Heidi heard that the mission was accomplished.
He stopped talking nonsense immediately.
"Let's go back and report to the Lord." (End of this chapter)
