King

Chapter 429 A sudden turn of events

In the Emerald Palace, after the fall of the Principality of Canterlot, the Principality of Usta and the Principality of Fike asked for help, and soon appeared in front of Caesar IV.

"snort!"

"This is simply unreasonable!"

"How dare you threaten to surrender? Do Usta and Fike want to defeat us..."

Faced with Caesar IV's roar, the ministers sat upright, fearing that they would accidentally attract the firepower of their own king.

Smart people all know that Caesar IV's gaffe is not just the two letters asking for help, but also the fact that he has been too frustrated in recent days.

Since the outbreak of the Continental War, Caesar IV's power has been squeezed by the military.

No matter how dissatisfied it is, it is useless. All the major forces in the country, including the royal family, have reached an agreement that the king will not be allowed to interfere in the military.

Due to internal pressure, Caesar IV could only choose to endure. You can comfort yourself by thinking about the overall situation for a day or two. No one can bear the depression for a long time!

Unconsciously, Caesar IV's temper also increased day by day. It's just that he hides it very well during normal times and is rarely exposed to outsiders.

The letters of request for help from the Principality of Usta and the Principality of Fike became the spark that set off the powder keg.

After venting his anger, Caesar IV calmed down and gradually became peaceful. No matter how angry you are, you have to face reality.

Usta and Fick would never have been able to do such a thing unless they were forced to the wall. Surrender is easy to say but extremely difficult to practice.

The continental war is in a stalemate. The human race and the alien alliance have their own advantages and disadvantages. No one can judge the final outcome.

In this situation, being on the wrong team can be very fatal. In the event that the human race is completely victorious, Qiu Hou will calculate the score and no one who surrendered to the foreign race will even think about running away.

"Your Majesty, the Principality of Usta and the Principality of Fike wrote such letters, most likely because they were stimulated by the destruction of the Principality of Canterlot and acted impulsively.

After calming down, the top leaders of the two countries should make rational choices.

The war has progressed to this point, and both sides are stained with each other's blood. The unforgettable hatred has been forged, and it will not be so easy to untie.

Following the elves, the status of the Usda and Fike people is destined not to be high, and they may even be deliberately tortured.

Where there is oppression, there is resistance. As time goes by, their local dominance foundation is gone.

This is still the case where the alien race wins. If the human race were to win a great victory, they would be liquidated immediately.

The surrender of the Principality of Usta and the Principality of Fike will have a great impact on the situation in the Northern Continent. This is the reason why everyone must rescue them.

But no matter how good the reasons are, the actual situation must be considered. Except for a few neighboring countries, even if other countries want to send reinforcements, it will take a long time to do so.

Taking the Kingdom as an example, if reinforcements are organized under normal conditions and strategic materials are prepared for the expedition, plus the time spent marching, it will take two months at the earliest to arrive.

Judging from the situation of the Principality of Usta and the Principality of Fike, let alone resisting the elven army for two months, if they can persist for another month, it is all because of the Lord of the Morning.

Perhaps they made the threat not because they really wanted reinforcements, but because they wanted to use the last bargaining chip in their hands to exchange for a commitment from all parties. "

Count Francis analyzed rationally.

Surrendering and destroying the foundation is equivalent to chronic suicide; resisting a narrow escape may not necessarily be able to preserve the foundation.

Not to mention the extreme situation in the Principality of Canterlot where the top leaders were wiped out, even if all the top leaders of the two countries evacuated safely, the restoration of the country would have become a dream.

If the human race wins a great victory, the lost land will definitely be recovered, but it is difficult to say whether they are the masters of the land.

The major forces of the human race are not philanthropic. In addition to sending troops to regain the lost territory, it is not only for the sake of humankind's justice, but also to divide the corresponding benefits.

If the Borderless Land is not divided enough, then we can only pinch the soft persimmons and forcibly divide the interests from them to appease the heroes.

The destroyed Principality of Cantru, as well as the soon-to-be-defunct Principalities of Usta and Fike, are all weak persimmons.

If we don't fight for some rights while we can talk now, not only will we not be able to keep our noble status after the war, but we may lose our lives.

As long as they fulfilled their obligations, no one would touch them on the surface, but it would be hard to tell secretly.

The internal fighting among the aristocratic groups was also very fierce. If you have no strength in your hands and block other people's way, you can imagine the consequences.

"If you want to negotiate terms, it depends on what they want. The kingdom can guarantee that it will not seek the interests of the two families.

But we are not the ones who have the final say on the Aslant continent. We cannot control what other big forces think.

Judging from the current situation, the kingdom's national power will inevitably be weakened after the war. The right to speak in the Northern Continent will most likely be reduced.

If they want us to come forward and give a definite guarantee, I'm afraid they are thinking too much. "

The Prime Minister, the Grand Duke of Newfoundland, said unhappily.

The Alpha Kingdom has enough troubles on its own. It would be good to be able to protect its own interests after the war, so how can it care about others.

The threats from the Principality of Usta and the Principality of Fike undoubtedly pierced this window and made everyone face the reality of the kingdom's imminent decline in advance.

Angry as hell, the Grand Duke of Newfoundland was unfazed. As long as there is no internal decay in a big country, even if it declines in a short period of time due to external forces, it will quickly revive.

“Judging from the current strategic situation, the Principality of Usta and Fike are still valuable, and we need them to buy time for Marshal Hudson.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs may wish to contact them. As long as the two countries can resist to the end, we can promise to support their restoration.

The strength of support is linked to the strength of their resistance. As long as they can hold off the elven army for another two months, the kingdom will do its best to support them. "

Grand Duke Efiero painted the pie without changing his expression.

For a country with a territory of hundreds of thousands of square kilometers, it seems that it is not difficult to resist foreign invasion for two days.

But this is theoretical. The elves are competing for time and do not need to occupy every inch of land. As long as they capture the main strategic locations, the army can continue the expedition.

To hold back the elven army, the only way is to block the road they must pass through and hold on to the fortress.

"Your Excellency, let alone two months. It is a miracle that the Principality of Usta and the Principality of Fike can persist for another month.

Because they are close to the elves, their military strength has always been suppressed. In peacetime, their standing army is less than 30,000.

The number of strong men is even pitifully small, and almost no genius is born. Occasionally, a few geniuses are born, and accidents happen quickly.

For the safety of their descendants, the great nobles of the two countries usually send their outstanding descendants abroad for training, and they will not return until their strength reaches a certain level.

Faced with the current complicated situation, it was too late for them to transfer their children, let alone recall their children who had gone out. "

Count Francis shook his head and said.

Painting cakes also requires skill. If you can tell at a glance, you can see the cake but not eat it, and you can't fool anyone.

What's more, "support" and "guarantee" are completely different concepts between the two countries.

Supporting their return to the country can be supported by actual actions or by words. There is a huge gap between ensuring that they can return to the country.

When it comes to national reputation, such public promises must be fulfilled as long as they are made.

“Let’s do this!

No matter what choices Usta Principality and Fike Principality make, our bottom line is here. We can support their post-war restoration, but we cannot guarantee it.

It is estimated that no country in mainland China can give such a guarantee. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs should work hard to help them recognize the reality as soon as possible.

The Ministry of Military Affairs reported the matter to Marshal Hudson, asking him to seize the time to defeat the coalition of ancient survivors as soon as possible. There was not much time left for the kingdom. "

Caesar IV said with a wave of his hand.

Frankly speaking, he did not want to interfere with frontline command. The increasingly complex situation had already overwhelmed him.

Regardless of his personal feelings about Hudson, right now, Hudson is the hope of the kingdom. The next fate of the kingdom depends entirely on the battle situation on the front line.

There is no room for any willfulness in front of the ancestral foundation. If not, he would not deliberately have a closer relationship with Hudson before the expedition set off.

Although it is superficial, it is better than nothing. At least it sent a signal to the outside world that the relationship between the king and the marshal was very close.

"Marshal, we have contacted the resistance forces in the Eastern Warhammer Kingdom. According to the intelligence they provided, the enemies are gathering towards the Declas Province.

Preliminary estimates put the assembled enemy troops at no less than 200,000. More detailed information is still under investigation. "

After listening to Tom's report, Hudson was shocked and directly found the location of the Declas Province on the map.

After his gaze stayed for a short time, Hudson was speechless. The enemy was so frightened that they actually chose to gather in a mountainous province hundreds of miles away.

The cavalry has strong combat effectiveness, but cavalry combat is also very challenging on terrain. It is definitely easier for cavalry to fight in plain areas than in mountainous areas.

The enemy is fully prepared, and it is almost impossible to launch a major surprise attack to severely damage the enemy's army.

What worries Hudson the most is that the enemy does not come out to fight with him in the field, but huddles in the city and wastes time with him.

"Marshal, the enemy has been frightened by you, and I'm afraid he won't fight us easily next.

Time is on the enemy's side. They only need to wait for the elves' army to come over and the two sides will meet in the Kingdom of Alton.

Even the ancient remnant alliance's army in the Principality of Alton may suddenly turn around and attack the Principality of Usta and Fike first with the elven army.

If the enemy decides to delay and defend the city directly, it will be difficult for us to achieve victory in the future. "

Jose analyzed with a frown.

Under the current situation, the pressure on the expeditionary force is too great. Not only do they have to use limited forces to severely damage the ancient alliance, they also have to race against time.

"If the enemy doesn't come out, then mobilize them. Send the order and let the army pack up and set off early tomorrow morning!

They can temporarily abandon the large tracts of land in the Eastern Warhammer Kingdom, but do they dare to abandon the retreat of the coalition forces?

Passing behind enemy lines, I'll see how long they can stay in Declas Province. If they don't fall into the trap, they will go all the way from the Warhammer Plains to the Principality of Orton.

They are all enemies anyway, so just deal with their main force there first! Just after the fight, you can also meet the elves army. "

Hudson said calmly.

He said it easily, but deep down he and Jose both came to the same conclusion: this war is difficult to fight!

The enemy simply did not dare to fight him before the main force was assembled. If the opponent really completes the assembly, it will become impossible for Hudson to go over and seek death.

No matter how elite the troops under his command are, it is impossible to attack the camp of hundreds of thousands of troops who are prepared.

The best fighter planes are always in motion. The cavalry's high mobility is inherently suited to mobile warfare.

Deep down, Hudson was prepared for the worst. No matter how the situation develops, the first thing he must ensure is that his army will not suffer a major defeat.

Rushing to the battlefield to gamble on luck in order to gain time was not his style.

Anyway, he has tried his best and deserves the title of Marshal. If the situation is corrupt, it will be corrupt. This is not something he can control alone.

Unable to block the elven army from the country's borders, the worst case scenario would be to go back and fight a local defensive war, which would only cause disaster to the kingdom's border provinces.

Even with the addition of an orc empire, the war will not reach the southeastern coast for a while, and the safety of the home base is still relatively guaranteed.

As long as the elves don't stick to the kingdom and the kingdom persists until the end of the continental war, Hudson is still confident.

After a series of bitter battles in the Farland Kingdom, they had to shrink their main force back to Newport for the final resistance.

"What, the Kingdom of Light has fallen?"

exclaimed Philip I.

Among the seven grassland kingdoms, the Kingdom of Light and the Kingdom of Farland are the most powerful, and they have persisted the longest in the face of the invasion of the orc army.

Watching allies fall one after another, only two countries are left making the final stand. I didn't expect that when I woke up, my last ally would be gone.

Fighting alone, or fighting alone without reinforcements, this feeling is really not wonderful.

"Yes, Your Majesty!

The Kingdom of Light broke out last night, and it is unknown how many people escaped. Anyway, their king has fallen.

On the entire prairie, only the kingdom is now making its last stand. If nothing unexpected happens, the orcs will definitely step up their offensive against Xingang next. "

Prime Minister Drae replied bitterly.

No one likes a war that continues to be fought despite knowing that it cannot be won.

Compared to a group of unlucky allies, the situation of the Farland Wheel Kingdom is much better. The royal capital is at the port, and you can escape at any time.

The current fierce resistance is mainly because everyone is trying to gain political capital. The most important thing is: run away in advance, the Alpha Kingdom will not let them pass.

If your life is safe, then fight slowly! Anyway, if nothing can be done, you can still board the ship and leave. No matter how powerful the orcs are, they are unable to chase them to the sea.

Ah, late
