King

The army of elves moved south in large numbers, and the situation in the Hessian Kingdom became tense. The threat from the old neighbors, the Stonemen, has not been eliminated, and now another powerful enemy has been added.

The only one who is relaxed is probably the Count Louis Vuitton. It's a misfortune and a blessing. It was great for the Hessians to annex the County of Kolubia before, but now it's a headache.

The expansion of its territory made the Kingdom of Hesse the first of the three kingdoms in the Central Continent to confront the elven army, a proper copy of hell.

Gratitude does not exist. It's not like he asked the Hessians to help block the knife. If he didn't cause trouble to delay, he was just taking care of the overall situation.

After all, he is not a direct descendant of the kingdom. He can have a position in high-level meetings because Alexander V takes into account the international influence.

There is not much sense of presence, and Count Louis Vuitton is happy to paddle. Feel free to mess with it, anyway, he was transferred again not long ago, from a wealthy county to a remote mountain county.

Being in a remote area also has the advantages of being in a remote area. Even if a foreign army comes to attack, it won't be his turn for a while.

"The Kingdom of Alpha and the Principality of Mosi refused to jointly send troops. What's going on? Don't they have any strategic awareness?"

Alexander V asked with a puzzled look on his face.

When you open the map, you will know that once the Hessian Kingdom is defeated, the Alpha Kingdom and the Principality of Moxi will be surrounded on three sides by the alien alliance.

Anyone with a little common sense knows that under this comprehensive and passive strategic pattern, both countries may be in danger of collapse at any time.

"Your Majesty, according to the intelligence coming from the north, the orc army has just won a great victory, and the Alpha Kingdom was forced to abandon many provinces in northern Xinjiang.

In order to deal with the invasion of the orcs, they have concentrated their forces to the northern Xinjiang. They may be really powerless against the invasion of the elves.

There are too many areas bordering the Moxi Principality and foreign races. The reluctance to send troops is probably because they are afraid of getting burned.

What's more, in recent years, they have been strategically following the Alpha Kingdom. Not long ago, the Alliance of Ancient Relics invaded, and the Alpha people helped them solve it. It is not surprising that the two countries continue to be consistent.

Of course, it is not ruled out that the two countries and the elves have reached a secret agreement. "

Marquis Krasner, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, explained awkwardly.

It's not that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs didn't work hard, it's that the reasons for refusing to send troops were too good, and there was no room for pressure.

The orc army has invaded the country, and they have to protect themselves first. There is no fault at all.

In a sense, the current passive situation is also caused by themselves. If they had supported the Northern Continent at the beginning of the war, the situation would never have collapsed so quickly.

But the problem is that they are not the only country on the mainland. If you only contribute your own efforts and others are watching, everyone will feel unbalanced.

The impression of the elves paddling was so profound that everyone took a chance and thought they could end the war before the elves intervened.

With this mentality, when the countries in the northern continent asked for help, the three major kingdoms in the central continent all chose to wait and see.

Something big went wrong while they were waiting and watching. By the time they realized something was wrong, it was too late to take action.

The expected human shields, the Kingdom of Alpha and the Principality of Moxi, actually did not play their due role and did not compete with the elven army at all.

Although it is suspected that they have reached an agreement secretly, without evidence, the Human Alliance will only bring humiliation to itself.

After all, the Alpha Kingdom has always been on the front line when it comes to fighting alien races, and its contribution to the human race is obvious to all.

"Forget it, the two families can't share much strength, so it's okay if they don't send troops.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs immediately contacted the countries in the Central Continent, especially the Kingdom of Dante and the South Coast Kingdom, and must form a Central Continent coalition in the shortest possible time to stop the Elf army from going south! "

Alexander V said helplessly.

It seemed like an understatement, but in fact, he was not at all calm inside. Without the participation of the Alpha Kingdom and the Principality of Mosi, it is not only a reduction in military strength, but also a comprehensive strategic passivity.

According to their initial strategic deduction, the elven army should destroy the Principality of Moxi and severely damage the Kingdom of Alpha before moving south to avoid threats to its flanks.

Although it is not known whether the three parties have reached an agreement, the elven army went directly south anyway, as if it was not worried about the threat to its flanks.

“Your Majesty, let’s ask the Alliance for help!

The situation of Dante Kingdom and Nan'an Kingdom is similar to ours. They are all busy with their own wars and have limited troops available.

The remaining small countries are all vassals of our three countries, and their strength is very limited. Even if they form a large army, it will be difficult to stop the elven army. "

Count Niklas suggested.

As Minister of Military Affairs, he is very familiar with the military strength of the central continent. There has been no war for many years, and the army has long been rusty. Now they are all interns on the battlefield.

From the outbreak of the war to now, all kinds of messy things have happened one after another.

There is only so much national strength, but due to the low efficiency of the government and poor coordination among all aspects, it is unable to exert its full strength.

Each of them took their younger brothers to work, and they were just like chicken feathers. After forming a coalition, there was even more chaos.

The only good news is that everyone has grown up during the war. If the elven army had arrived later, when the generals from each country had grown up, the situation would have been completely different.

"Count Niklas, your thinking is too simple. If asking for help from the Alliance is effective, the elf army will not be able to reach our doorstep.

Countries in the Northern Continent have long asked for help from the Alliance. No matter how tight the war situation is, they will not be completely unable to mobilize their troops.

Leaving aside the declining Kingdom of Oprus, Kingdom of Avarat, and Kingdom of Ruthenia, it is not difficult for us, the Dante Kingdom, and the South Coast Kingdom to each mobilize seven or eight main legions to reinforce the northern continent, right?

The Iliban Kingdom is more powerful than us. It has been suppressing the foreigners since the war broke out, and it is not a problem to mobilize more than ten main legions.

The Holy See and the Frankish Kingdom, which are more powerful, have never felt pressure, and they can easily do it by deploying twenty legions each.

If other small countries put it together, the entire human alliance can send a million troops to the northern continent in the early stages of the war.

Unfortunately, due to their own interests, everyone found excuses to refuse.

Now that the situation is becoming clearer and clearer, several major forces in the Southern Continent will no longer send troops. Asking for help from them means nothing except humiliating oneself.

In fact, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has already contacted them, and everyone can probably guess the final result.

Everyone talks about reinforcements, but when it comes to specific actions, they just want to annex the surrounding foreign races as soon as possible and increase their own strength.

Now they are just hoping that both us and the alien army will suffer losses. The war won't be over for a while anyway, so they can just finish their own thing and then come out to clean up the mess! "

After hearing Marquis Krasner's mocking words, everyone looked embarrassed.

When the countries in the Northern Continent asked for help, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs advocated sending troops, but unfortunately everyone rejected it.

Facts have proved that the theory of cold lips and tooth death is indeed effective.

Without major powers taking the lead in reinforcements, the situation in the northern continent quickly collapsed, and the Hessian Kingdom was forced to take up the banner of resisting the invasion of the elven army.

The flames of war had reached his own home, and he could no longer escape. Regardless of the final outcome of the war, the strategic plan of the Hessian Kingdom was bankrupt.

A similar scene also happened in the South Bank Kingdom and Dante Kingdom at the same time. Only with personal pain can we understand the pain of being betrayed.

…

After the mountain leader glanced at the information in his hand, Hudson shook his head secretly.

This continental war has already buried more than a dozen countries. However, this is just the beginning. If nothing unexpected happens, more countries will be destroyed in the future.

If nothing else happens, the human world will also undergo a major reshuffle.

The former top ten kingdoms on the mainland, the Warhammer Kingdom has become history. Even if it can be restored after the war, it will not change the fate of its decline.

The Kingdom of Oprus, the Kingdom of Avarat, and the Kingdom of Ruthenia, which had performed poorly during the war, were now clearly falling behind.

When a great country declines, it is best to expect its neighbors to decline with it. But judging from the current situation, this seems to be a luxury hope.

If the Three Kingdoms cannot be established, they will inevitably be devoured and divided after the war. As for the length of this time period, it depends on everyone's moral integrity.

In a sense, the future fate of the Three Kingdoms is directly proportional to the speed of the collapse of the moral system.

In addition to these three countries with internal problems, the Alpha Kingdom and the three kingdoms of the Central Continent are also being tested, and their future fate depends entirely on the subsequent war.

For a moment, Hudson felt the pressure. In the face of the great era, the power of individuals is too fragile.

The little power of the Mountain Territory is considered a force in the Alpha Kingdom. But if you look at the entire continent, it doesn't rank at all.

What troubled him the most was that someone was trying to steal refugees from him. Such a move is completely interrupting the development process of the mountain territory.

He clearly knew who the other party was, but he couldn't do anything. Compared with the mainland's most powerful country, the chips in his hands are really too small.

“Send the order and let people from the Immigration Department take the initiative and not just sit there and wait for refugees to come.

Don't keep your eyes on the northern continent. The war is about to spread to the central continent, and our old neighbors will soon be in trouble.

Arrange people there and wait for the Hessian Kingdom to fall into war before waiting for an opportunity to take action.

I don't care how you do it, I just want to get the person back to me. Remember to be quiet and don't hang my flag.

When necessary, you can spend money to buy mercenaries and slave-trading organizations. If something happens, let them take the blame. "

Hudson said seriously.

The situation is changing too fast, and it is impossible not to take risks. For the sake of territorial development, he did not care about offending the Hessian Kingdom.

Anyway, they are already in the vortex of the storm, and their losses will definitely be huge in the coming war. Even if his little tricks were discovered after the war, I guess there would be no time to worry about it.

Besides, their relationship with the kingdom had already deteriorated. Even if a diplomatic protest is issued, the kingdom will most likely ignore it. As long as it's decent, that's fine.

"Okay, Count!"

…

After arranging the territorial affairs, Hudson went straight to the royal capital without stopping. It's not easy to be a commander during a war, even if you want to take a vacation.

After staying in the territory for less than two days, he was urged by the kingdom to go back to handle military affairs. It was all caused by the unfavorable fighting on the front line.

Although he proposed the strategic contraction plan to preserve the kingdom's strength, all parties still could not tolerate the loss of cities and territory.

Fortunately, Marquis James took the trouble alone, and the kingdom did not announce that it was voluntarily giving up. Otherwise, Hudson would have been scolded.

This is the general public opinion environment in the kingdom. As long as the front line loses cities and territory, it is a heinous crime.

It would be okay if there was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides. The nobles would have some insight and be able to understand what was necessary.

Now there is not much difference in strength between the two sides, but due to command errors, everyone on the front line has suffered defeats all the way, and everyone can't bear it!

It’s hard to be a good person.

The strategic contraction was mainly to protect the noble lords in the north. As a result, it happened that the nobles in the northern border area were the most violent.

Hudson also understands their feelings, whose territory is loved by whom. It took a lot of effort to make some progress in business, but now I have to give up suddenly, which is definitely hard to bear.

But there is no way. Without the supply of strategic materials, the war cannot be fought at all. Either we take the initiative to strategically shrink now, or we run out of strategic supplies and are forced to retreat.

First, the noble lords in the border areas were making trouble, and then the five northern dukes took over and gradually became the main force.

To sum it up in one sentence, the war is burning at the doorstep and the core of one's self is damaged.

Marquis James was having a hard time. Facing the pressure of public opinion, he could no longer withstand it.

Even without Hudson as a substitute, it would only be a matter of time before he is ousted.

Now hundreds of noble lords have requested a change of command from the kingdom. This kind of thing has been very rare in the more than three hundred years of history of the Kingdom of Alpha.

The kingdom could not withstand the pressure, so it naturally could not leave Hudson idle. Even though the expeditionary legion was in a rest period, he had to take over the position of commander.

…

“The frontline continues to suffer setbacks, and now the morale of the military has been severely damaged. The top priority is to restore confidence.

It is not enough to change the coach, reinforcements must also be sent to enhance everyone's confidence.

Allocate five standing legions and recruit five legions from provinces that have not yet been mobilized to form an army of 100,000 and rush to the front line. "

At the Royal Capital meeting, Hudson made the request directly.

Because of the precaution against the elven army, not all of the kingdom's standing army was sent to the battlefield in northern Xinjiang, and the provinces in the southwestern region did not recruit troops to fight.

Now that the contract has been signed, the threat of the elves can be ignored for the time being, and the kingdom can free up its hands and feet to deal with the battlefield in northern Xinjiang.

"The troops on the front line have been severely damaged, and it is necessary to mobilize troops for reinforcements. But Marshal, is it a little too little to send a hundred thousand troops?

Otherwise, recruit ten more legions and gather an army of 200,000. "

Archduke Efiero asked slightly hesitantly.

The situation on the front line was tense. During the retreat, they suffered several defeats and lost a lot of troops. The 100,000 troops only made up for the losses.

I wish all readers a happy May Day, and I’m glad I caught up with it.
