King
Chapter 582 Adding insult to injury
After briefly scanning the contents of the official document, Hudson's mood can be described as:
Ups and downs.
The orcs blocked the river and built a dam upstream, hoping to take advantage of the melting snow and ice and the river's surge, giving him a "flooded seven armies".
Fortunately, the frontline guards were not idiots. After realizing that the water level in the river was wrong, they promptly sent people to the upstream area to conduct reconnaissance.
In the extraordinary world, it is obviously impossible to keep such a large-scale damming project completely secret. What's more, the Orc Empire, which is full of contradictions, is itself a big funnel.
After analyzing the collected information, the defenders quickly determined the strategic purpose of the orcs.
"Steward, send someone into the palace to inform His Majesty the King: There are changes on the front line. The orcs are about to launch a new round of offensive. I have to rush back to the Near East to command the war!"
After saying that, Hudson immediately summoned Maxim and headed back directly.
In the Alpha Kingdom, what the coach needs to do most is to win the battle, and everything else is trivial.
As for the Human Alliance Parliament, there is no need for Hudson to worry too much. The royal government will naturally arrange relevant matters.
The world will change without anyone, and without one melon-eater, it will naturally not affect the normal holding of the alliance meeting.
A new day, a new beginning.
After many private discussions, representatives from the three major countries walked into the conference hall together in the early morning.
Seeing this scene, the originally noisy venue suddenly became silent.
It's too dark, and such a blatant political suggestion leaves no room for anyone to object.
It's one thing to support yourself, but it's another thing to be forced to support.
It is a pity that the representatives of the three countries are currently enjoying the fun of carving up the Holy See and have no time to take care of everyone's inner feelings.
At this moment, representatives from various countries suddenly sympathized with the Holy See. Countless people silently sighed in their hearts: What a sin this has caused, allowing the three countries to put aside their conflicts and join forces to deal with it!
However, recalling the dark history of the Holy See, this little sympathy was instantly wiped out.
"Parliamentary representatives" do not represent themselves. Every word and deed must follow the pace of national politics behind them.
The last accident was when a certain member of the Alpha Kingdom reported to the Alliance that the Logistics Department had corrupted the Alliance's military supplies.
The price was: the five great dukes in the North were forced to commit suicide and take responsibility for all the crimes. At the same time, the five great families began to decline.
It is enough for this kind of political accident to happen once. Countries that have learned from experience and lessons have subsequently strengthened ideological control over their own members.
The kind of congressmen who were too active and might cause trouble were replaced by mature and stable nobles.
The effect was immediate. As you can see from this meeting, although everyone was noisy, everyone was very polite and there was no farce of fighting on the spot.
The big bosses are very satisfied. The quality of their own members has finally improved and they will no longer disgrace the Human Alliance.
…
“After several days of friendly consultations, all parties have finally achieved a phased breakthrough regarding the civil war in the Southern Continent.
The soldiers on the battlefield are still waiting to go home after the war, so there is no need to worry too much about some details.
For the sake of peace on the mainland and the prosperity of the human race, I now ask all members to perform their duties and cast a sacred vote on yesterday's preliminary negotiation results!
…”
As soon as Caesar IV's words fell, the originally quiet venue suddenly turned into dead silence.
It can be seen from the dull expressions that many congressmen have fallen into deep self-doubt.
"Negotiation results", does this thing really exist?
During the previous discussion, all parties were arguing non-stop. There are almost as many solutions as there are countries involved.
It's just their own opinions, and if all parties have not reached a consensus, how can there be a so-called "negotiation result".
However, Caesar IV's vow made everyone feel that there might really be a result of the negotiation, but they just didn't know it!
"Your Majesty, interrupt me!
I remember there were many options yesterday. Which negotiation result was the negotiation result you mentioned?
Or put all the plans together and let everyone vote together? "
Bishop Montesson asked calmly.
However, the sad look on his brows and the trembling of his body still revealed his inner uneasiness.
“Your Excellency, please rest assured that the alliance has always adhered to the principle of fairness and justice.
The members of the House of Representatives present all have the right to propose and vote, so they naturally discuss all the plans together.
According to the alliance rules, the plan with the highest votes will be submitted to the Alliance Council for a second round of review! "
Caesar IV said with a smile.
It's one thing to make an agreement in private, but publicly everyone still has to pay attention to the food and appearance, and all the procedures that need to be followed are indispensable.
It's just that this kind of fairness is not what Bishop Montesson wants at all.
Frank, Iliba, and Alpha control nearly 45% of the seats in the alliance. Unless everyone jointly opposes and votes for another plan, the plan with the highest number of votes in the end must be designated by the three countries.
The voting was about to start, and even if he wanted to connect in series, he would not have enough time.
What's more, there are probably only a few representatives who dare to risk offending the Three Kingdoms and flirting with them in full view of the public.
Even if there is a second round of review, it is meaningless. If the Three Kingdoms randomly recruits a few young people to make up the number, they can push over half of the votes.
"Your Majesty, time is too tight and everyone is not ready. We might as well postpone the voting and move on to the next agenda in advance!"
Bishop Montezon said in a panic.
Originally, the Holy See had planned to find an opportunity to sabotage the Alpha Kingdom's proposal to grant the Hudson Human Race Marshal, but now it no longer cares about that much.
For multiple honorary short-term marshals, the Holy See will not lose a piece of meat, but if the voting is opened, it will be cut off immediately.
Even though they know that it is extremely difficult to change the final outcome, this kind of thing can always be postponed day by day. At least it can prove to the Holy Mountain that they have worked hard.
"Your Excellency, Bishop, you are overly worried. Representatives from all countries are the elites of our human race. How could they be derelict in their duties at such a critical moment!
It's just a vote, it won't take long.
Everyone, hurry up. Not only can we end the human civil war today, but we can also end the next agenda! "
As soon as Count Djordjevich finished speaking, all the representatives of the Holy See were confused.
Insider trading was carried out quietly, but how could it be so obvious? Everyone is now a member of the Anti-French Alliance.
After a brief period of confusion, Bishop Montesson quickly found the answer. It’s not that the Iliban Kingdom is unethical, it’s that the benefits of carving up the Holy See are too great.
For countries like the Kingdom of Alpha and the Frankish Empire, which are clearly anti-Vatican, the people of the Holy See have already evacuated, so naturally there will not be many properties of the Holy See within the territory.
But the Kingdom of Iberia is different. Although they have caused many obstacles to the Holy See in the past years, this is the first time they have directly ransacked their homes.
What's more, after the Holy See fell, the Holy See's big piece of cake in the Southern Continent was divided between them and the Franks.
The specific income figures cannot be calculated for a while. Anyway, the inheritance they inherited is enough to save them from struggling for several years.
As long as the price is high enough, everything is negotiable. It was obvious that this time the Franks had fully profited.
The backstabbing of his former teammate directly shattered the Holy See's attempt to incite the members of the Anti-French Alliance to cause trouble.
However, there is no most tragedy in the world, only more tragedy.
When a set of plans were written down, Bishop Montesson was completely angry and couldn't help but ask:
"Your Majesty, what does this proposal from your country mean?"
All the drama is done, whether it is the Franks or the Iberians, their proposals are aimed at each other.
There is no doubt that this kind of proposal that is not in line with the common interests of everyone cannot be the true intention of the three countries.
Only the plan proposed by the Alpha Kingdom satisfies the interests of all parties at the expense of the interests of the Holy See, including a number of small countries that can take a share of the pie.
Once the proposal is passed, all countries will gain religious autonomy and can freely choose to believe in the three major churches on the continent.
The Frankish Empire and the Iliban Kingdom will equally share the hegemony of the Holy See, while the Alpha Kingdom will replace the Holy See's transcendent status in the Alliance Council.
In addition, the Holy See is also responsible for this war and bears the losses of various countries in the war.
There is no need to pay compensation. The Holy See only needs to compensate its own properties in various parts of the mainland to other countries, thus properly legalizing robbery.
No matter how you look at it, everyone is a winner in this treaty except the Holy See.
"Of course it means literally. Could it be that, Your Excellency, the Bishop, you can't even understand such simple words?"
Caesar IV mocked unceremoniously.
Anyway, the Alpha Kingdom is already full of hatred from the Holy See, so it doesn't care about adding more.
Although there was no definite evidence, deep down he also believed that the death of Caesar III was inseparable from the Holy See.
Even though Caesar III's body was already broken, he wouldn't have died so quickly if it hadn't been for that assassination.
Although his father's death allowed him to ascend to the throne in advance, Caesar IV was not at all grateful to the Holy See.
Regardless of whether there were conflicts between father and son during his lifetime, since a person is dead, he is a filial son and a virtuous grandson.
"Ha ha……"
"Ha ha……"
…
I don’t know who took the lead, but immediately the venue burst into laughter.
No way, who made the picture so funny!
In the past, the Holy See was so awesome that no one dared to step on it now.
What's more, the Alpha Kingdom's proposal gave everyone enough face, and representatives from various countries wanted to reciprocate.
Just as he was about to say something, Bishop Montesson forcefully swallowed the words when they reached his lips.
The matter has come to this, there is no need to continue to humiliate ourselves. In the past years, they have offended many people in the name of gods.
Even the die-hard disciples of the Holy See were not less exploited by him.
Perhaps feeling that people's hearts could be used, after the laughter, Caesar IV added: "In view of the faults committed by the Holy See in the war, I feel that one more thing needs to be added.
In recent years, the exiled nobles on the peninsula have repeatedly complained to the Alliance about the Holy See's seizure of their territory.
However, the overbearing interference of the Holy See has prevented the investigation from continuing. I suggest that the Alliance restart the investigation! "
This knife was originally intended to hit the Holy See after the dust fell to the ground. However, after being provoked by Bishop Montesson, Caesar IV simply threw it out.
It seems to be just an ordinary investigation and review, but in fact it is denying the legitimacy of the territory of the Papal State.
Once the investigation results come out and the Alliance determines that the actions of actively annexing the Papal States are illegal, then it does not rule out the Alliance's strong intervention to restore the sovereignty of these annexed small countries.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is the intention of the three major powers to kill the Holy See at once and not give them a chance to rise up.
Upon hearing that they were about to split their family, all the representatives of the Holy See immediately glared at Caesar IV. If they had not considered the other party's status as monarch, they would have drawn their swords and killed him.
Perhaps out of anger, Bishop Montesson suddenly fell to the ground, followed by a group of representatives of the Holy See who fainted one after another.
"Don't look at me like that. The Vatican's uncles are very demanding. We don't arrange food and accommodation. Even if an accident happens, it's none of the kingdom's business.
Perhaps they were in poor health, so the pastor among the council members came forward to check and clear our name! "
After hearing what Caesar IV said, everyone's faces twitched. This was too thorough to add insult to injury.
We are all politicians. Who doesn't know that this kind of collective fainting without any warning is purely to avoid responsibility!
According to the current alliance situation, the proposal is 100% approved. As representatives of the parliament, if these guys don't faint, how will they explain it later?
While everyone was complaining, streaks of holy light flew out from the crowd, covering the unconscious members of Congress.
It seems that he is helping with krypton life therapy, but this is obviously not what the "coma" members want.
However, they who were lying down did not want to wake up at this time, so they had no choice but to endure it.
Anyway, they have no serious health problems, and even if they undergo krypton life therapy, the loss of life expectancy will not be too serious.
Today is different from the past. In the past, the representatives of the Holy See did not come, and the voting results were not representative of the human race. Now it is the same without them.
After receiving treatment, the guards came in and sent the "fainted representative" to the lounge at the back, and the voting process began quickly.
…
In the Near East, with the help of cloud cover, Hudson appeared at the orcs' dam-building site.
Looking at the chaotic construction work of the orc soldiers below, he wanted to laugh. This organizational ability is obviously not up to par!
Water and fire are merciless, but if you want to use the power of water and fire to defeat the enemy, the most important thing is to be fast enough.
Obviously, the complex technical work of dam building is not something that uncivilized orcs can master.
However, in the extraordinary world, if technology is not enough, magic can be used to make it up. Thanks to the continuous magic processing by the sacrificial masters, no accidents were caused in advance.
Of course, there is another important reason: not enough water!
The ice and snow begin to melt in the spring, but it's a slow process. Last year's severe drought also affected the ice and snow world upstream, and the snow accumulation in the marginal areas was slightly less than in previous years.
After a brief wait and see, Hudson returned to the camp. He didn't go down to cause damage, not because he deliberately let the orcs go, but because he sensed the aura of an acquaintance below.
Since all the elves' sanctuaries have come to take control, it is naturally inconvenient to use some shady methods.
Although the human race, as the overlord of the mainland, has a strong card, if someone really gets caught, it will still not look good in all aspects.
Big names inevitably have "idol baggage", and Hudson is no exception.
Once you become the marshal of the human race, it represents the face of the human race, and it is naturally inconvenient to use some shady methods.
