King

Chapter 295 Living towards death

Invitations were sent out one after another, and Hudson became busy again. To build a trading platform, you need to prepare far more things than you think.

It is not only necessary to prepare a trading place, but also to have enough and powerful merchants, and also to have enough sellers.

Businessmen are the easiest to handle. As long as the benefits are large enough and safety is guaranteed, they will come over themselves.

The trouble is that the "sellers" are all nobles, and many relationships require Hudson to personally communicate and coordinate.

Fortunately, dealing with the spoils of war is also an urgent need of the coalition forces.

One after another caravans had accidents on the way, and fewer and fewer merchants were willing to take risks, resulting in a large backlog of loot in everyone's hands.

In order to maintain the mobility of the army, many nobles had to give up some large trophies and only pick the most valuable ones to take away.

As soon as Hudson spread the news, some nobles who had gained too much had reserved warehouses in advance, and some even impatiently sent people to deliver their things directly.

As a result, Hudson had to order work overnight to build a temporary storage warehouse.

In the headquarters of the Judgment Knights, Captain Blake is extremely worried. After robbing dozens of orc tribes in a row, the Holy See army also accumulated a large amount of loot.

Originally, the Chamber of Commerce under the Holy See was arranged to take charge of the matter. Unexpectedly, Hudson suddenly made this happen, which made his own Chamber of Commerce afraid to come over.

"What's going on? Why did you say so well, but why did you suddenly stop coming?"

Blake asked angrily.

It's not a system. Even if he is in a high position, he can't do anything to those guys. After all, his life in the Holy See was not easy and he could not continue to make enemies.

Anger is more like a powerless vent. If no one from the Chamber of Commerce comes, realizing the loot in hand will become the biggest problem.

If he didn't fall out with Hudson, he could send someone to the trading center to find a buyer. At this time, if you come to your door, who knows if you will be cheated!

"Captain Blake, don't be so angry, let's discuss it slowly.

If the Holy Chamber of Commerce refuses to come, it is a last resort. The front line is too dangerous. In the past month, two of their caravans have been robbed.

Especially now, after Earl Hudson builds the trading platform, the risk of going directly to the front line is even greater! "

Bishop Simon explained calmly.

Blake naturally knew full well that the Holy Chamber of Commerce's caravan was robbed. He sent people to investigate the scene in person, and in the end all the clues pointed to the orcs.

Since it was the enemy who did it, the investigation would naturally end in vain. The most they could do was kill a few more orcs on the battlefield to vent their anger on the Chamber of Commerce, and they would have to bear the losses themselves.

"What's there to worry about? Do they still dare to rob our Chamber of Commerce?

Bishop Simon, please tell the person in charge of the Chamber of Commerce that we will put a magic mark on the goods.

Even if it is robbed, once the goods are out of the market, we can follow the clues to find the murderer and help them make up for all their losses! "

Blake said domineeringly.

As the top power in the mainland, he has the confidence to make promises. It's a pity that Blake is facing one of his own people, so this kind of promise has no effect at all.

"Captain Blake, please stop making things difficult for others. If someone dares to steal our things, do you think they will sell it through normal channels?

The Holy See's influence in the Alpha Kingdom is extremely limited. Even if stolen goods are found, it will be difficult to trace them all the way.

If Earl Hudson wants to build a trading platform, then let him do it. We also need such a place anyway.

The Holy Chamber of Commerce has received an invitation to settle in. Only some specific details have not been settled, so there is no need to continue to fiddle with it. "

Bishop Simon said with a smile.

They are both in the Holy See camp, and the internal forces are also in chaos. Just because the Judgment Knights don't deal with Hudson doesn't mean that the Holy Chamber of Commerce also has a grudge against Hudson.

Although it is affiliated with the Holy See, the Holy Chamber of Commerce is still a commercial organization, and the first thing that comes to mind when considering problems is profit.

Running with the Judgment Knights, there are many dangers along the way, and you can only do business with this family.

If they entered the trading platform, the sellers they would face would be the entire human coalition.

In particular, the platform has a high enough threshold to eliminate a large number of potential competitors. With the strength of the Holy Chamber of Commerce, it is enough to get a big piece of fat from it.

As for Blake's idea, it is no longer considered. It's just that the Trial Knights lose some face, and it won't harm the interests of the Holy See. Why bother with money?

"You...you guys are not afraid of doing this..."

Blake swallowed his hesitant words before he finished speaking.

After taking stock, he couldn't find a reason that could change the decision of the Holy Chamber of Commerce.

Although the barrel of a gun is powerful, the wallet is not a vegetarian either. He got into trouble over this, and it was himself who suffered in the end.

"Your Highness, do you really want to lead the team there in person? You must know that this trip will go deep behind enemy lines, and there will be many dangers along the way!"

Clark tried to persuade.

Prince Butzweig has Beamon's common trait - paranoia. Once he makes up his mind about something, even nine cows can't pull him back. As a think tank, Clark only felt tired.

At this moment, going deep behind enemy lines to carry out sabotage can basically be said to be a life-or-death mission. Any clue left behind will be strangled by the human race.

No matter how empty the Alpha Kingdom is, it still has the strength to strangle a few orc squads. If it really doesn't work, at most tens of thousands of troops will be mobilized to go back to work.

With the continuous arrival of reinforcements from the Human Alliance, even if the front line is stretched, the advantage of the Human Race on the battlefield is still expanding.

The fact that the five royal families would rather pay a huge price to relocate their clansmen than confront the human coalition forces shows a lot of problems.

"Alex's authority is getting stronger and stronger, and those competitors have been tortured a lot. Although I have lowered my profile as soon as I came back, I can't help but be resented by him.

Once he took care of those few, it was my turn.

Now Alex is the king of the Beamon clan. As long as he wants to find trouble, there are many ways to torment me.

Simply accept a mission and go out to avoid the limelight. On the day of return, it is estimated that the imperial court has been almost cleaned.

A prince who has lost his influence in the military is the best Prince Beamon. I still have this political consciousness! "

Prince Butzweig said in a low tone.

But if there is a third way, he will not choose to take risks. But there was no way. He had already asked himself to be responsible for the tribe migration work, but unfortunately Alex rejected it.

If he continues to stay in the army, he will be a hidden danger to the imperial power. No matter who is in the position of Emperor Behemoth, he must be eliminated as a hidden danger.

If it weren't for the fact that this was a time of war, and Alex's hands and feet were restrained for the sake of the unity of the Beamon clan, the butcher's knife would have struck him long ago.

Waiting passively for death is not his style. Butzweig would rather die on the battlefield than die in an internal fight.

If he stayed in the country and continued to lead troops, Alex would only become more and more wary of him. Instead, he might as well take the initiative to go deep behind enemy lines and risk his life.

As long as he can come back alive, this political turmoil will be a smooth landing for him.

A prince who sacrificed everything for the Behemoth clan, even if it was just for political propaganda, Alex had to hold him high.

If there is a change in the imperial court in the future, with the character he has created, he will still have a chance to compete for the position of Emperor Behemoth.

After all, Alex is old. At more than twice his age, Butzweig could have killed him slowly.

"Your Highness, since you have made up your mind to go south, I will not advise you.

If His Highness's trip is just to avoid disaster, the possibility of escaping unharmed is still 60 to 70%. If you want to make great achievements, I'm afraid... you will die without rebirth! "

Clark said bravely.

As a counselor, he had to act with Prince Butzweig. If the boss were to attack the street, his little brother would not survive.

The current advice is not only to save Prince Butzweig, but also to save his own life.

"Don't worry, I'm not a fool. The war has progressed so far, and the empire has lost. No matter how hard we work behind the enemy's rear, we can't change everything.

As far as I know, each of the five royal families has lost more than 20% of its population, and the proportion of young adults is even higher.

After this strategic shift, the strength of each ethnic group will be further weakened. The rear is certainly conducive to defense, but those barren lands will also restrict our development.

If the human race changes its strategy and supports a few powerful races, we will be waiting for civil war every day! "

Prince Butzweig couldn't help but complain.

These are the top secrets of the Orc Empire. If he wasn't too depressed and needed someone to talk to and vent, he wouldn't tell them.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid this kind of thing will really happen. What the human race is best at is sowing discord, especially when our neighbor is Caesar III.

Looking at everything he has done since he took the throne, stirring up trouble and playing with balance are his common techniques. "

Clark analyzed in as calm a tone as possible.

Perhaps immersed in it, Prince Butzweig did not get angry, but nodded and said: "You are right, as long as Caesar III is alive, we will face these situations.

I can even guess the specific executor. Caesar III appointed the young Hudson as the commander of the army, clearly preparing for the destruction of the empire.

If you calculate your age, you will know that at Hudson's age, he can be entangled with the empire for at least several decades.

With the wily king and the young and enterprising commander, we will never have peace again in the years to come! "

Since the defeat in Da Pest, Prince Butzweig has passively turned into a boaster. Perhaps he has boasted too many times, and now he even believes it.

Things that were originally unrelated to each other were pulled together after he thought about it.

"Your Highness, do you want to assassinate Caesar III?"

Clark asked in shock.

Killing a human king is a huge debt for the Orc Empire.

But the question is, is the king so easy to assassinate?

Especially the identity of the orcs, it is estimated that they were wiped out before they even entered the royal capital.

"Don't worry, we don't need to do it ourselves. The empire will send experts to implement it. With my little strength, I am not qualified to be an assassin.

You don’t need to know how to implement it specifically for now. When the time comes, someone will help create opportunities. The Empire is acting as a knife for others this time! "

Prince Butzweig couldn't help but sigh.

This war has changed so many people and things. Compared with the high spirits before the war, at this moment, he is only filled with sadness.

Even though they knew they were being used as a knife for others, the Orc Empire had to smile and thank them for the opportunities they created.

Regardless of whether the assassination was successful or not, it was impossible for the masters involved in the assassination to come back alive. All possible traces of exposure will be erased.

What the Orc Empire needs to pay is: after the assassination is completed, take the initiative to shoulder the responsibility of the assassination, and must not leak any information about the collaborators.

The contract documents have been concluded, and the five emperors are all contracting parties, and they cannot go back on it even if they want.

In fact, even if you want to leak the secret, it is difficult. Even high-level officials in the empire, including Prince Butzweig, did not know who the real collaborators were.

The few insiders are bound by the power of the contract. You can't indemnify your own emperor just to divert hatred, right?

"Okay, Clark. You should go down and prepare. No one can tell whether we can come back alive this time.

Let’s make arrangements for our family members first, so that we don’t have an accident and bring harm to our wife, children, and children.

If you need anything, you can tell me. Although I, the prince, have passed away, I still have some dignity in the imperial court! "
