Lord of War
Two hundred and seventy-three. The Simon family
The atmosphere in the meeting room was still oppressive.
The faces of the eight people in charge of the various real powers of the entire Simon family were particularly gloomy at the moment, especially after they read the report in their hands.
Since the entry of the army of the Principality of the Void, several private armies under the Simon family began to desert. The desertion phenomenon is still unstoppable. What's more, even the family members of the Simon family have started to abscond with money, although it has been proven that this approach is completely inadvisable, because the Void Principality will not let any of the Simon family go members, but the panic of the entire Simon family is still unavoidable.
In the past two days alone, the order of the Simon family has become completely chaotic, and it is not uncommon to see the phenomenon of the lower and upper class.
Almost everyone showed a broken can and broken situation.
"boom!"
A middle-aged man sitting in the conference room stretched out his hand and clenched his fist, then he hammered the table heavily.
All eyes are on him.
"Too much deception!" The middle-aged man roared in a deep voice, "Isn't Ryan's royal family saying anything!"
Hearing this, another middle-aged man who was in charge of all the diplomatic affairs of the Simon family shook his head and gave a wry smile: "The Duchy of the Void raises the blood flag, which belongs to the revenge of blood relatives, not to mention that the Ryan royal family will not intervene in this kind of blood feud between nobles. Even when we were in the era of the Darbion Kingdom, the royal family would also not intervene.... It would be better to say that the Ryan royal family did not pretend to support the Duchy of the Void, so we should be grateful."
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, the middle-aged man with a relatively hot temper fell silent, and the atmosphere in the conference room became even more gloomy for a while.
"Is there no other way?" The middle-aged woman couldn't hold back and said, although her voice didn't sound too nervous, but there was a trace of sadness that couldn't be concealed. Shouldn't..."
"Enough!" Before the middle-aged woman could finish speaking, the only old man in the meeting room, that is, Best Simon, the current head of the Simon family, Marquis De Rohan, shouted in a deep voice, and directly called She interrupted her next words, "What's the use of talking about it now!...Since we've already done it, don't regret it. We can only blame ourselves for not handling the matter well and let others touch the tail."
Hearing what Best said, everyone in the conference room silently lowered their heads, "Baidu doesn't have Qihang Text."
The three young people even looked at each other, and in each other's eyes, they all saw only deep fear.
In fact, the Simon family was indeed involved in this conspiracy against the Principality of the Void. And not only the Simon family, but even Earl Medan and Viscount Ryder, who were destroyed by the army of the Void Principality, all participated in this plan. s reason. At that time, the Simon family didn't want to support, they also secretly sent an army to support, but no one thought that the combined army of Earl Meydan and Viscount Ryder would be so vulnerable. The city was broken.
Of course, the unlucky ones probably belonged to the Tap Mun family.
Because this family did not participate in the plan against the Duchy of the Void, they would be the first victims, purely because of the vanity of the nobles. It's just that even Joseph Tapmen didn't expect it,
The Void Principality would be so cruel and ruthless that it would directly wipe out their entire family.
At the beginning, there was actually a vote within the Simon family on whether to participate in this conspiracy against the Principality of the Void. The result was three to four: three votes against and four votes in favor, so the resolution was passed, and then there was a months-long preparation period—as the outside world now speculates, the branch that went deep into the void The mysterious army of the principality is a private army secretly cultivated from the Simon family.
Its essence, like the Wings of Condemnation secretly cultivated by William, is ready to be unveiled as a killer.
As for the five shadow assassins in "Qihang·Menggongzi☆Xingmeng", they were not the work of the Simon family, but the mysterious allies who provided the action plan.
Of course, the Simon family has seen this action plan. In their view, it is perfect—in this plan, the private army provided by the Simon family is just a bait. The assassination of the Big Three.
As long as these three giants are resolved, the Void Principality will be a sick tiger without teeth and claws. At that time, no other action is needed, just a little incitement, and another conflict will be enough to disintegrate the Void Principality, and it may even become a direct change. Controlled by a puppet regime. Whether it's the former or the latter, it's the Simon family's reward for participating in this conspiracy—they will become the most powerful family in the entire Ryan Kingdom in one fell swoop.
If it is the former, then the Simon family will obtain a large number of military forces and generals of the void principality after the disintegration; if it is the latter, the Simon family will have a secret duchy territory, which is naturally extremely important for the development of the Simon family. advantageous.
It can be said that the ambitions of the Simon family are not insignificant.
With such a huge profit, that little risk is naturally worth taking for the Simon family, a family that was born in business in the past few generations.
But unfortunately, their actions failed.
It is not expected that the Void Principality has a strong sanctuary. Another problem is that it has not prepared emergency measures, and the method of destroying evidence is not perfect, so the Void Principality caught clues. But this is the end of the matter, no matter how annoyed and regretful the Simon family is, it will not help. What they have to do now is how to avoid the crisis of genocide.
Judging from the performance of the Void Principality during this period, it is obvious that the Void Principality's immortality under the blood flag war is not a joke.
"Patriarch, what should we do now?" Another middle-aged man who hadn't said anything asked in a deep voice, "Should we just surrender like this?"
"Surrender?" The middle-aged man with a fiery temper suddenly roared, "Do you think surrender is useful!? Look at the fate of Earl Meidan! Do you think that if we surrender, the other party will let us go? ... Hmph, I think it’s better to fight fiercely with the opponent.”
"Fight? Finish the fight?" The middle-aged man who clearly advocated surrender asked with a sneer, "The other side now has two sanctuary powerhouses, what do you use to fight with them? You have the strength and qualifications to fight against them." Do you fight? They can kill you easily!... Don't tell me that you have to compete with others in terms of military standards. We have never heard of these two legions, the Black Wings and the Wings of Condemnation, but since they are both used' Wings' named legion, do you think it would be weaker than Iron Wings?"
"Then what do you mean, let's just commit suicide?" Best Simon glanced coldly at the middle-aged man who opened his mouth, and just one look made him shudder.
Maybe the Simon family is already on the verge of collapse, maybe it is impossible to escape this crisis of extinction.
But now the Simon family has not been truly exterminated, so Best Simon is still the head of the family, and he still has the ability to decide the life and death of the family. You must know that Best Simon was famous for being cold-blooded in the era of the Darbion Kingdom. He not only inherited the speculative and adventurous spirit of the businessman from his father's generation, but also inherited the cold-blooded and iron-blooded spirit of the founder of the Simon family. Military style.
"I, I didn't mean that, Patriarch..." The middle-aged man's voice dropped after Bester gave him a cold look.
"snort!"
With a heavy snort, Best turned his head to look at the middle-aged man with a fiery temper, and then asked in a deep voice: "If you can hold back the two sanctuary powerhouses in the Duchy of the Void, how sure are you that you can stop them?" The army of the Void Principality?"
Block, not defeat.
This proves that the Simon family has admitted that they are the disadvantaged party in the contest with the military power of the Void Principality. Wanting to defeat the Void Principality's army commanded by a famous general, the Simon family themselves knew that this was a fool's dream. So Best Simon naturally wouldn't say anything about defeating or defeating the army of the Principality of the Void. In terms of mentality in this regard, Best Simon is quite pragmatic.
Hearing Best Simon's words, the fiery middle-aged man who was in charge of the Simon family's military operations fell silent, and was rapidly analyzing the military strength of the enemy and us in his brain. At the same time, he was simulating a sand table game between the enemy and us in his mind, trying to find the slightest chance of victory.
He knew very well what the Patriarch Best Simon meant by "blocking".
As long as their Simon family can block the army of the Void Principality and prove to the entire Ryan Kingdom that they are not weaker than the Void Principality in the level of generals, then with the background, strength and reputation of the Simon family, they will definitely be able to win many allies And reinforcements, then the Simon family will have the possibility of turning defeat into victory. Even, as long as the army of the Void Principality can be eaten, then the Void Principality will fall into a situation where its vitality will be greatly damaged. Maybe their Simon family will find a chance to eat the Void Principality openly.
If it really succeeds, then the Simon family can completely replace the Duchy of the Void and become a grand duke!
Thinking of this, the hot-tempered middle-aged man naturally showed a fiery look in his eyes.
Of course, the premise of all this is that he must be able to block the attack of the Void Principality's army.
At this moment, the conference room, which was originally filled with a gloomy atmosphere, suddenly became a little more tense.
Especially those three young people—in fact, these three young people from the Simon family were not qualified to participate in this kind of meeting, but they had been determined to be the future members of the Simon family half a year ago. The successors of the heads of diplomacy, military, and finance are therefore qualified to participate in such high-level meetings. At this time, two of the three young people looked at the fiery middle-aged man expectantly, hoping to hear some good news from him that would cheer them up.
Among them, a woman with a dignified and beautiful appearance and long golden wavy hair has the brightest eyes.
Because she is the successor of the next military chief of the Simon family - she will take over from her father.
After a long time, the middle-aged man with a fiery temper finally exhaled heavily, with a rosy look of excitement on his face: "If we can choose the location, then the chance of winning is at least 50% But the premise is that the opponent's sanctuary strong must be restrained and cannot be distracted from attacking our army, otherwise we have no chance of winning at all."
50%!
This probability is only half, that is to say, there is still a 50% chance that they will not be able to stop the invasion of the Void Principality's army at all.
According to normal circumstances, this probability can be said to be very low. It is only qualified to try reluctantly, and it is not even considered "necessary".
However, you must know that the person in charge of commanding the attack is William Yale, who ranks seventh among the top ten generals in the mainland!
Dare to say that there is a 50% certainty that he can block his attack. This probability is not low, but very high! For today's Simon family, it has reached the point where it is absolutely necessary to try.
"You only need to block the army of the Void Principality for a month, are you sure?" Best Simon asked again hastily.
"If it's a month, then I can increase the chance to 70%!" The middle-aged man with a temper was full of confidence at this time, "It's just that I can only play defensive battles. And it must be based on danger. If we fight in the wild, then I will not be sure at all. And... After this battle, our vitality will be greatly damaged. Even if the family is not destroyed in the end, I am afraid that it will take a long time to come a period of rest."
"As long as we can avoid this catastrophe, then we will not be seriously injured." Best Simon waved his hand and said lightly, "The family's secret library will be opened for you, and you can directly ask for whatever you need !Starting today, you have all the calling authority of the Simon family, and no matter what your request is, it will be satisfied immediately!...I will go find our mysterious ally now, if it is just to hold back the Void Principality The two sanctuary powerhouses are not fighting to the death, I believe they will not refuse."
Hearing what Best Simon said, everyone in the conference room showed a look of excitement, and the fear of being threatened by death finally dissipated.
However, under this extremely elated atmosphere, there was a strange look in someone's eyes.
This person is another young woman in the meeting room.
She has the same long blonde hair, but instead of wavy, it's waist-length straight. Compared with the other woman, her appearance is much more beautiful, especially her eyes, which are extremely touching and bright, and there is an indescribable charm in every frown and smile.
At this moment, the strange color in her eyes flashed away, and she looked no different from other people in the room.
Soon, the meeting came to an end.
In order to be able to resist the invasion of the Void Principality's army, and to win a chance to turn defeat into victory, the people in this meeting room immediately started to act. The formation that should be arranged, the connection that should be connected, and the cooperation that should be coordinated, it seems that everyone has found the motivation to dedicate their lives to it. And when these big figures who control the fate of the entire Simon family took action, the entire Simon family also began to rotate like precise gears, operating one after another.
Soon, the order of the Simon family, which had already collapsed, was immediately re-established.
This is the quality of a family with a real heritage.
There was only one person, which formed a sharp contrast with the entire busy Simon family.
That is the beautiful woman with waist-length golden hair.
After the meeting ended, the woman returned to her room immediately, facing a shadow in the room with a solemn face, and said in a deep voice, "I want to see Grand Duke Sean Connery!" 〖To be continued〗【】
