Wandering Knight Start: I have a simple data panel
Chapter 340 The Continuation of the War
Victory on the front line, regaining lost territory.
This news is sensational.
In the past ten years, the Kingdom of the Holy Cross has been passively beaten, and this is the first time it has won.
Although the losses are not small, the victory is enough to cover everything.
All the criticisms against Duke Fernandez disappeared in an instant.
Even the church and the noble coalition, which suffered heavy losses, suddenly had no opinions.
Compared with the losses, the regained land is enough to make up for the losses of each family.
And Duke Fernandez's reputation is booming, and no one dares to go against him.
However, as the center of the eye of the storm, Duke Fernandez is not so optimistic.
The combat effectiveness of the Northern Duchy Army is still so strong. If it weren't for the difference in troop strength, this battle would not have been won at all.
In his opinion, there is nothing to be proud of in a victory with huge casualties.
And in order to prevent this from being a trap, he even slowed down the pace of pursuit and watched the Northern Duchy Army retreat calmly.
…
“Sure enough, this old guy Fernandez has become cautious.”
Manniu sighed with some regret. Long before the retreat, the staff had analyzed this possibility.
Then, the staff also made two plans, arranging a staircase ambush and a rear guard army to prevent unexpected situations.
Manniu even personally led people to the ambush point, but unfortunately the Holy Cross Kingdom was extremely cautious and took the results step by step without any intention of taking risks.
So in the end, he could only leave with regret.
“Let you be happy for a while, but I will bear the infamy for a while.”Manniu had a headache just thinking about it.
It is conceivable how much public opinion pressure would be caused after the defeat. If it were not for the execution of the plan, he would have wanted to turn around and fight with the Holy Cross people.
…
The nobles nearby reacted the fastest to the front line.
The Connor family!!!
Collison’s joy was beyond words, and he was almost cheering.
Although his family was colluding with the Northern Principality and most of the income came from there, he was happy.
Compared with the expansion of the family, being able to suppress his younger brother Balin was the most important thing.
After all, if the powerful Connor family was handed over to Balin, he would have no relationship with him. It would be better to inherit a weaker family.
Besides, with the size of the Earl's family, it would not be too bad anywhere.
Colison could not suppress his joy and reported the military situation on the front line to his father in person. Finally, he couldn't help but say: "Father, the Northern Principality is showing signs of decline. I think the kingdom is about to rise again. Shouldn't we make some preparations early?"
Colison looked at his father expectantly, hoping to hear good news. It would be best to cut off the connection with the Northern Principality and join the war.
But what he received was the look of Earl Connor as if he was looking at a mentally retarded person: "You should think less about this kind of thing in the future."
"Father..." Colison still wanted to fight for it.
"Get out, don't bother me here." Earl Connor got angry.
Collison did not dare to resist, but felt that his father was old and confused. It was obvious that the kingdom had the advantage, so how could he not make any preparations?
A fence-sitter is just a person who leans to the side where the wind blows. You did it yourself.
Collison left the study room aggrieved, and then the bookshelf slid, and Balin walked out with a smile.
Earl Connor had put down the book in his hand and sighed: "Did I protect your elder brother too well? Why is he getting stupider and stupider?"
"An eagle will not protect its cubs, otherwise it will be difficult for the young eagle to grow up." Balin said a local proverb, and then changed the subject: "Father, it's my turn to move out."
The defeat of the Northern Principality gave him room for movement.
Only at this time can the value be highlighted.
"Yes, what you see may deceive you, but the gold coins will not. Go ahead." Earl Connor agreed. As for the risk... What is there to do without risk?
Fortune is sought in danger. If he did not dare to take risks back then, he would not be here today.
...
The defeat of the Northern Principality, even if it was just a small defeat, is still a big deal.
The undefeated golden body was broken, and the awe in many people's hearts disappeared.
The powerful enemy seemed to become less scary all of a sudden.
Some hidden thoughts grew again in the depths of their hearts.
There were also some negative effects. Seeing that the upward momentum of the Northern Principality was interrupted, the Griffin Kingdom also felt that it was okay again.
Is it impossible to go to war directly?
There are too many merchants and nobles involved in maritime trade. Once the war leads to the interruption of trade, many people can't stand it.
So the Griffin Kingdom played a trick.
It happened that Count Lovett came to visit, and the two sides reached an agreement privately.
The regular army of the Griffin Kingdom took off their uniforms and quickly became mercenaries, ready to go to the battlefield.
Even some new iron-ribbed warships were leased to the little prince Radek.
Changed the skin, everything is the same as before.
Fight when it's time to fight, and continue to do business when it's time to do business.
Even at this time, Count Andre came forward and united a group of capital nobles to forcibly take over a port.
Then he turned around and signed a lease contract to lease the port directly to the Northern Principality.
Private land is sacred and inviolable, even the king can do nothing about certain behaviors of the feudal nobles.
…
The three southern kingdoms have a complicated relationship with the northern principality.
Reality is not a game, and the division of camps is absolutely funny.
In fact, it is normal that you are in me and I am in you.
There are many people like the Connor family.
At least for now, the three southern countries have risen again.
The pressure of the past seems to be just a false dream.
The rise of the Northern Principality is full of legends, until the undefeated golden body is broken.
And which country's establishment is not full of legends?
Now it seems that everyone is the same.
Without an absolute external enemy, the Griffin Kingdom began to surge again.
The church secretly trained soldiers, and a large number of stockpiled weapons were distributed.
The royal family also took the opportunity to form a new army in the name of supporting the front line.
They even mastered a large number of machines and established a primary industrial system.
The nobles of all sizes were not idle either, and they showed their magical powers to expand their strength.
Some wanted to get promoted to a noble title through war, some wanted to protect themselves, and some had greater ambitions.
Anyway, the arms market was extremely prosperous for a while, and a large number of finished and semi-finished products were consumed.
Even the steel production of the Northern Principality, which has been increasing year by year, was not enough for a while.
A large number of merchants ran back and forth, and they made a lot of money.
They wished the war would continue forever.
Even Derek, after calculating the accounts, not only did he not lose money in the war, but he actually made more and more money.
