King

“Let’s deal with the newly added territory like this!

The government completed the division of provinces and counties as soon as possible, and then issued an announcement to invite people with lofty ideals in the kingdom to initiate expansion.

Next we talk about the problem of the inner earth.

Everyone knows that the royal family has a portal to the center of the earth. In order to enhance the strength of the kingdom, I decided to take it out and let all parties participate in the development! "

After Caesar IV's words fell, except for Hudson who was slightly surprised, the rest of the people's faces showed no emotion at all. It was obvious that they had communicated in advance.

This is the biggest disadvantage of being far away from the royal capital, as a lot of news will be delayed.

If they were in the royal capital, it would be impossible for this kind of thing to hide from Hudson's eyes. Even during the internal discussion of the royal family, the news should have been received.

After a brief moment of confusion, Hudson immediately reacted.

The royal family suddenly offered the entrance to the inner earth world. Hudson did not think that Caesar IV would be so selfless. If that were the case, there would be no need to eat alone in the future.

There is only one explanation for spitting out the eaten meat - he was choked!

Although Hudson didn't know the specific situation of the inner earth world, he could still roughly judge it from the invading earth inner race.

Just because the royal family wiped out the earth-centered races that entered the surface world, it does not mean that the corresponding underground world has also been cleaned up.

On the ground, the royal family suppressed the enemy and fought. If they entered the inner earth world, the situation might be reversed.

For a human race that has not survived in the inner earth world, it would be considered good if only four or five points of its total combat effectiveness could be left in an unfamiliar territory.

The generosity in front of the royal family is most likely a last resort choice after the attempt to expand the inner world failed.

After clearing his thoughts, Hudson simply smiled and said nothing, quietly watching the ministers singing praises to the king.

The resources of the inner earth world are very important, but that is a matter of the future, and it is difficult to see results in a short period of time.

In Hudson's view, the major project of developing the resources of the inner earth is no easier than destroying the Orc Empire.

Not only does it require a large investment of manpower, material and financial resources, but it also requires a large number of casualties and huge economic losses in the early stage.

Just going deep into the inner earth world to clear away the remnants of the inner earth race is a big problem.

If in peaceful times, the royal family's strength can be used together with political and military means, it can naturally be developed slowly.

It is definitely impossible now!

If a large amount of power is invested into the inner earth world, once heavy losses are suffered, the royal family will be in danger in the future troubled times.

"Marshal, do you have any good suggestions?"

Seeing that Hudson was unmoved, Caesar IV suddenly asked.

"Your Majesty, I am afraid that the expansion of the inner world will require long-term planning!

In addition to the lack of understanding of the inner earth world, the biggest problem is that it is difficult for ordinary people to adapt to the pitch-black environment.

If a large army is sent in rashly, the morale of the army may collapse before the enemy is found.

If the inner earth world is really to be developed, the royal government is not suitable to take immediate action. The best option is to let mercenaries explore the way first.

In the complex inner earth world, the survivability of mercenaries from Ye Luzi is much stronger than that of the regular army. "

Hudson persuaded tactfully.

A person must be self-aware and not be afraid to lead troops to fight on the ground.

If we go to fight in the inner earth world, that's not a discussion.

If he accidentally strays into some dangerous place and causes heavy losses to the army, his reputation will be completely ruined.

Losing your reputation is actually nothing. The worst thing is that you also lose your life.

“Marshal, don’t worry, this kind of thing cannot be rushed, we will not blindly advance it!

The strength of the inner earth races is not weak. Only a part of them have invaded the mainland now. The early stage of entering the inner earth world will definitely be based on testing. "

Caesar IV explained helplessly.

It's not that he wants to be cautious, it's that the royal family has already paid tuition for impulsiveness.

Three waves of troops were sent out in succession, but all of them failed to return. If the fourth exploration team hadn't escaped by luck and returned the two of them, he would have thought that the inner earth world was a desert.

With the limited information in his hands, he quickly came to the conclusion: the inner earth world is not easy to expand!

If you can't do it yourself, of course you have to recruit allies.

Anyway, the entrance is on the territory of the royal family. As long as the expansion is successful, they will definitely get a big share of the resources of the inner earth world.

But Hudson's indifference still gave Caesar IV a headache.

As the head of the military, Hudson's stance will affect a large number of people. If a few big nobles follow suit, it will be difficult to advance the plan.

Although the mineral resources in the inner earth world are abundant, the risks are also directly proportional to the benefits. Everyone must weigh the pros and cons.

After hearing his king's explanation, Hudson, who had a good emotional intelligence, simply chose to laugh and say nothing.

The risk warning has been given, and it has nothing to do with how you choose in the future.

He is also interested in the resources of the inner earth world, but there is an entrance at the door of his house, so there is no need to visit the royal family's entrance.

Although the entrance to the cursed land is now in the hands of the dark elves, it is only a matter of time before it is taken back.

Now trading with the dark elves is actually a means of infiltration.

When the kingdom destroyed the orcs, the dark elves had no choice but to accept his kindness if they did not want to annihilate their clan.

With the cooperation of the leading party, the difficulty of entering the inner earth world will be greatly reduced.

However, Hudson still admired Caesar IV's approach very much.

When he couldn't eat it at home, he decisively took out the entrance to the center of the earth and shared it with the nobles. It was obvious that he had made a lot of progress.

As long as the pie is divided later, Caesar IV's reputation in the aristocratic circle will inevitably increase greatly.

…

Warcraft Mountains.

"Alpha, are you crazy?"

McCombed asked with a puzzled look on his face.

After his country was ruined and his family was destroyed, he became a casual cultivator. He did not want to participate in secular disputes anymore, so he chose to practice hard in seclusion in the Warcraft Mountains.

It was originally a happy thing for an old friend to come to visit, but when Alpha I explained his purpose, he was shocked.

The Kingdom of Alpha is developing well, and the current king, Caesar IV, is also ranked high among the monarchs on the mainland.

With such outstanding juniors, it’s okay not to support them, but they actually seize power by themselves.

After living for such a long time, he met many people who liked power.

But this is the first time that McCann Bede has encountered a man who is four hundred years old and is still so obsessed with power.

“Don’t worry, old friend, I’m very sober now!

It is indeed disgraceful for me to do such a thing in my capacity, but I have no choice but to do so.

Help me once, and when it is done, the Alpha Kingdom will do its best to collect the training materials you need.

After the Golden Age begins, I will do my best to support you in taking further steps.

If you want to restore your country, the Alpha Kingdom will also help you!

…”

Alpha I kept promising.

Seizing power by force is the last resort, but without force, even seizing power will be in vain.

To win over the army, the death of Duke Tows cut off his opportunity to expand his influence in the army, so he could only take the high-end route.

He has won over several allies by making promises along the way.

However, these forces can only act as a deterrent. If a civil war ends up, even if they can seize the kingdom, the Alpha Kingdom will be destroyed.

Alpha I's plan was very simple. He would first win over a group of strong men, and then use this power to negotiate with the great nobles in the country.

From his experience in the royal capital, Alpha I already understood that the biggest obstacle to his restoration was the rising aristocratic group.

As for the royal family, although some people may object, most people will still choose neutrality when meeting this ancestor.

"Alfa, even with the support of a few of us, it might be difficult for you to get to the top.

In recent years, the Alpha Kingdom has developed too fast, and a lot of strong people have been born.

Even if those old strong men won't oppose you, the new generation of strong men alone will be difficult enough, not to mention they still have troops in their hands.

If a war really breaks out in the royal capital, maybe one or two of us will die before we can escape.

When it comes to power, family affection is worthless. I don't think they will show mercy to you, our ancestor, when they fall out! "

McConbede shook his head and said.

He was also very greedy for Alpha I's promise, but the probability of success was too low.

Alpha I is nominally the ancestor of the Alpha Kingdom, and the royal capital is his home base. The problem is that he has been away for more than three hundred years.

Those who are willing to buy his account now are a group of losers in the power struggle who want to gamble again.

People can go to the gambling table, but the stakes are limited to political resources. It is impossible for everyone to work for him with their heads high.

Once the two sides start fighting, who cares whether he is the founder of the country?

He has been dead for more than three hundred years in the history books, so just make it true and label him a fake.

"Don't worry, McCann Bede!

You know me. There may not be any other advantages, but patience is definitely indispensable.

It’s not like I’m asking you to take action now, you must wait for the opportunity!

You should know that the life of a king is usually not very long.

Little Caesar had no children, so he suffered greater mental pressure and had a lower chance of longevity.

He just needs to secretly find someone to induce pregnancy, and he will use all kinds of pregnancy recipes sooner or later.

The more you toss it a few times, the more your body will collapse.

The best time for us to intervene is when there is a new round of kingship change.

If everything goes well, I will go straight to the position.

If the internal resistance is too great, then select a young new king from within the royal family, and I will be responsible for supervising the country! "

Alpha I said slightly unwillingly.

More than three hundred years are enough to change a lot of things. The old method of using the great nobles to check and balance can no longer be used.

The noble group is indeed divided into several major camps, but thanks to the fact that everyone needs to join forces to deal with the orcs, the nobles have evolved long ago, and the internal conflicts between the camps are not fierce.

If you open the history books, you will find that there is little news of fights between the great nobles in the Kingdom of Alpha.

Most confrontations are political struggles within the rules.

The team is harmonious, but life is not easy for the boss. When something happens, people can really join forces to fight against the king.

Because of the issue of military command authority, Caesar IV was criticized several times by the people below. If his mentality were not good enough, I would have been dead long ago.

In such a major event as the replacement of royal power, the great nobles in the country will definitely get involved.

It's okay to follow the rules of the game, but if someone breaks the rules, it will inevitably trigger a strong backlash.

Every time he thought of this, Alpha I secretly groaned.

He still couldn't figure out how the kingdom he built turned into the monster it was now.

“It’s good to supervise the country!

First, monitor the state and take power. After everyone gets used to you being in power, the resistance to restoration will not be so great.

Alpha, if you can think so, you can actually try it.

But you'd better plan ahead. If there are older heirs ahead of the succession line, it will be difficult later.

In addition, it is best to prepare your governance concepts in advance. As long as you have enough merit, everything will become easier! "

After hearing what McCanbede said, Alpha I's face turned red with anger.

This is not the first time!

In the previous times when we invited allies, everyone made similar judgments.

To sum it up: everyone just wants to play the easy mode and does not want to challenge the hell difficulty.

This is the result of his bid being high enough, otherwise no one would join in the fun.

…

The undercurrent of the Alpha Kingdom cannot stop the ups and downs of the international situation.

After a large number of advanced ordnance appeared in the hands of the inner earth race, the various human countries that received the news immediately responded.

A series of stern diplomatic notes flew to the dwarf kingdom like snowflakes.

The dwarf kingdom, which had been mentally prepared for a long time, naturally could not give up its original plan just because of the diplomatic protests from various human countries.

Regarding the accusations from various countries, the official response of the dwarves is: I haven't done it, don't talk nonsense!

As for why there are a large number of dwarf weapons in the inner earth race, the explanation given by the dwarf kingdom is: dwarf equipment is spread across the continent, and as arms dealers they are not responsible for the final flow of the weapons.

Quarreling couldn't solve the problem, but it succeeded in dragging the alien alliance into trouble.

Under the investigation of various countries of the human race, evidence that these second-rate traffickers were selling weapons to the inner earth races was quickly caught.

The countries that obtained the evidence had no intention of keeping it secret for the enemy and immediately reported the news to the Human Alliance Parliament.

Conflicts escalated and things broke out!

A new round of Human Alliance meeting was held. Representatives of the hawks directly proposed to expand the war, but they were opposed by the countries on the front line.

It's okay to start a war, but you have to wait until they clean up the mess.

Otherwise, even if the alliance wins a complete victory, they will not be able to divide the spoils.

The proposal was rejected at the conference, but the smell of war spread to all parts of the mainland along with the proposal.

…

Late at night, Lutetia Palace.

After the alliance meeting during the day, Charles I was worried about whether to continue the war.

As the most powerful nation in the human race, the Frank Empire has a very strong say in the alliance.

To prevent a foreign war, their support may not be necessary; but to launch a foreign war, their participation is absolutely indispensable.
