Derrick didn't know what happened in the New World. In fact, even Viscount Chavez was kept in the dark by the southern nobles.

The bigwigs of the southern nobles didn't know that Viscount Chavez had rebelled.

But they instinctively blocked the news.

They were very unwilling to share the profits of the slave trade with Viscount Chavez, so they made frequent moves, causing Viscount Chavez to choose the North.

The larger gem mines would naturally not be shared with Viscount Chavez.

Greed is human nature.

Huge interests can swallow everything.

They were not afraid that Viscount Chavez would find out and regret in the future. He was just a small noble. Even if he made a fortune because of maritime trade, he could not compare with their deep-rooted influence.

The smart ones would honestly lift their tails, eat some leftovers, and wait to become a member of the distribution of benefits.

Before that, they had to be honest and accept the slaughter.

But they didn't expect that Viscount Chavez would stab them directly in the aorta with a backhand knife.

Viscount Chavez couldn't take the silver mine, nor did he have the ability.

But the Northern Grand Duke had that strength. They were both dogs anyway, so why not choose the generous and powerful one?

When he betrayed, he knew he had no way out.

The big guys of the Southern Faction would not let him go as a traitor.

Once the matter was exposed, it would be difficult to die easily.

So Viscount Chavez worked very hard and sent all kinds of intelligence to the Northern Principality.

Since there was no way out, he would first bring down the entire southern nobles.

The downtrodden big guys would not pose any threat.

Therefore, Derek was able to quickly understand the status of the little prince Radek.

Obviously, as a pawn to contain King Arthur, the southern nobles would only let him hang half-dead.

If King Arthur was ruthless, he would give him a bite of milk.

If King Arthur was suppressed in turn, his support would be cut off for a while.

The little prince Radek had no territory of his own, which was equivalent to being caught with a handle and easily manipulated by others.

But even if he understood, he didn't dare to resist.

Accept the rule, at least he can live for now.

Once he falls into the hands of King Arthur, it will be difficult to die.

Brothers killing each other is more cruel than those without blood relationship.

No matter how big the threat from outsiders is, it is just a threat.

Brothers are qualified to inherit the throne.

Derek repeatedly looked through the information about Prince Radek, many of which were provided by Viscount Chavez.

With his identity, he can contact everyone in the southern faction.

Except for a few big guys, Viscount Chavez, as a newly rising noble, still has some say.

"No, Radek is too quiet." Derek quickly suppressed the information, and the small-scale movement could not satisfy him.

"Isn't King Arthur going to use the Guards? Then I'll find something for you."

The fall of Monta Province brought shock to the Locke Kingdom to outsiders.

However, King Arthur reacted strongly and had already recruited soldiers on a large scale, preparing to form a new army with the Guards Corps as the backbone to drive the Northern Principality back.

Such a big move naturally could not be hidden from Derek.

It must be said that the foundation of the Locke Kingdom is very strong.

King Arthur gritted his teeth, and the army could at least expand several times, and the pressure faced at that time would be different.

It can be fought, but there is no need to fight.

Derek believes that war has never been the only means to achieve victory, but only a guarantee.

It is actually very easy to solve the threat of King Arthur.

Putting up a target for him can naturally divert his attention.

Obviously, the target of Prince Radek is very conspicuous.

"Speaking of which, we are still allies." Derek smiled.

Some of the original agreements could not keep up with the changes after all.

As soon as Louis II died, all the disputes were exposed.

Prince Radek was not stupid enough to come to the North to raise the banner of rebellion, but the south and the north echoed each other from a distance, and there was a tacit understanding.

Now, Derek has to fulfill his obligations as an ally and provide a batch of aid for free.

It's so generous.

It's easy to contact Prince Radek, but of course Viscount Chavez can't go into battle in person.

Once discovered, Viscount Chavez will be exposed.

However, with the current status of the Northern Principality, it is too easy to find a white glove.

Some down-and-out nobles are easily tempted.

A decree of enthronement is enough to make many people work for the Duke with their heads raised.

This is the attraction of a complete sovereign country.

Otherwise, no matter how powerful your Duke is, it has nothing to do with me.

Now, everyone recognizes the Northern Principality and believes that the Principality can become a new force on the continent.

The nobles of the Principality will also be recognized by other nobles.

At this time, Derek's seal is stamped, and the temptation can be imagined.

The only pity is that this method cannot be abused, otherwise it will lose its original temptation.

Fortunately, Derek understands this and has been very tight.

So the enthronement of a baron is enough to make people work hard.

A remote inland port somewhere in the south, although the enthusiasm for shipping has reached a peak, this small inland port is still not competitive enough.

Those coastal ports can handle a large amount of cargo every day, but only a small number of inland small boats arrive here.

However, recently, a nobleman bought a warehouse near the port. Several ships docked every day and the goods they brought were loaded into the warehouse.

Baron Cliff inspected the warehouse again. He usually traded normally and quickly accumulated a lot of wealth by relying on the northern route.

However, he knew that there were many sensitive things in his goods. If they were discovered, he would definitely die.

If he didn't fight, he would still be that downtrodden nobleman.

A baron title passed down from his ancestors, without any fiefdom or industry, was worse than an ordinary businessman.

The reward given by the Northern Principality was very generous, a title of a fiefdom baron, and a channel for goods.

He had no right to refuse.

Although he often woke up at night and dreamed that he was caught and hanged.

But after waking up, the beautiful maid helped him get up, and those who looked down on him in the past begged him to cooperate humbly, and those real nobles also let go of their reserve and invited him to the ball.

He strengthened his belief again. Instead of living like a puddle of mud, it is better to live like a human being.

Derek certainly wouldn't choose a loser. Baron Cliff was still capable and could thrive with a little support.

Raising troops for a thousand days and deploying them for a moment had never bothered him before, but now he had to use them.

The letter with the arrival of a new batch of goods let Cliff know that the good days were over.

"Contact Prince Radek and hand over all the reserves to him?"

Baron Cliff frowned. This was a dangerous matter. Prince Radek was the forbidden fruit of a great noble.

But this was also an opportunity, an opportunity to get rid of his current status.
