BAHAs Empire, imperial command——
"That''s great," Marshal Leicester read the latest war report and spread the paper on the table. "RI borumrahul has surrendered to the dwarf country, and RI borolor''s heavy handicraft zone has been occupied. How about according to the imperial decree issued by his majesty?"
"The imperial edict issued by his majesty is to show authority to the kingdom if the troops are assembled and firm and stick to the station," replied a general.
"If the information Cohen Friedberg brought is true, it is," Lester said.
Cohen fried border is yayaka Tai Cohen fried. As the true ancestor of vampires, he absolutely dominates the next undead, and planted a mark on the messite who attacked the imperial capital with the undead.
He found that he followed the so-called Rick aganea to the consultative country and stayed briefly. After that, the mark was interrupted, which may be cut off by the Dragon King.
In other words, as predicted by some people, both the church state and the consultative state intervened in the war and showed the power of God, a transcendent beyond human reach.
Logically speaking, if all human countries have the support of corresponding transcendent forces, the war between human beings can still be carried out, unless the gods on both sides break cans and fall to engage in rear slaughter.
But if you kill all your opponents, you may really let them break the pot.
Moreover, even the religious countries have directly participated in the war. Judging from their military trends, they do not intend to let the Empire swallow up the entire rich hinterland of the human country. This is also in line with the predictions of some smart military divisions.
Therefore, the emperor decided to let go of the kingdom before such a thing happened, divide up one-third of the land of the kingdom to the holy Kingdom, the dwarf Kingdom and the Dragon kingdom to share the "hatred", and then support the new king in the remaining territory of the Kingdom, so as to avoid bordering on the appraisal state and the religious state, which seemed more dangerous to the Empire, leaving a buffer zone.
All kinds of intelligence collected during this period of March are different between the Kingdom and the Empire. It seems that most of the people there have no patriotism and belief. Even the villagers who have fallen into grass as cutting thieves by conscription and grain collection, as well as the mercenaries and fleeing disabled soldiers who incarnate robbers have encountered a lot, which is unimaginable in the Empire.
In order to protect themselves, nobles everywhere were desperate to recruit troops and receive food. During the continuous March of the Empire, the accumulated "troops" of the formed Kingdom could exceed 400000, which stunned the Imperial Army and the rear command.
However, it was just a group of civilians with weapons, but hot weapons and magic chanters were rarely seen, and even regular weapons were insufficient. Many "soldiers" even took farm tools and sharpened sticks.
They only took up arms with the fear of the oppression of the noble lords and the fear that the enemy would not let them go.
Such an army is basically on the verge of collapse.
Because there is too much food for conscription, those who escape cannot make a living and become thieves. Indeed, trained soldiers have nowhere to go and become more powerful thieves.
It seems that the Empire has more time to go to thieves to protect the supply line than to fight all kinds of sieges.
Even the people of the Dragon Kingdom who had been invaded by orcs for a long time and intermittently were not so degenerate.
At that time, someone in the imperial command suggested that since these people had no patriotism, wouldn''t it be OK to return the abandoned occupied land and captured military grain to the farmers who were forcibly recruited?
However, the captured military grain is not enough to make up for the gap, and the waste of this year''s harvest is probably doomed. Even if you spend a lot of money to invite the goblin temple to perform the magic of changing the weather, it will not help. Do you want to distribute the precious military grain of the Empire to the kingdom? No, the population gap between the two sides is too big.
This is also the reason why his majesty is willing to share one-third of the occupied land with other allies - can we help each other clean up this mess together?
"Then, if no one questions the intelligence brought by Cohen Friedberg, it will be decided that we are ready to discuss and negotiate the armistice. Does anyone have a different opinion?" Lester asked the surrounding generals.
"Yes, the information this time is different from that in the past. It''s really difficult to verify." Magic general sarasina raised her hand.
"Is there any difference from the past?"
It is very convenient to use small flying animals to make undead as a "reconnaissance plane", because undead will not be tired and can fly continuously regardless of various obstacles. Yayaka has many such bats, so it is also responsible for a considerable part of the investigation work, but the Imperial Intelligence Department is very cautious. After that, it always needs to investigate and verify again. It''s not that yayaka doesn''t believe it, but the intelligence is always time limited.
The problem is that the intelligence source has gone to the review country this time, and the Imperial Intelligence Department can''t reach there.
"This is not a problem. The two powerful and flying Graemes in the demon temple are really related to the review country," said Raymond, deputy director of the Imperial Intelligence Department.
Incidentally, the director of the Imperial Intelligence Department is fuluda, who has mastered the strongest surveillance magic and communication magic of the Empire. He is usually too lazy to attend such meetings.
"Why didn''t you say it until now?" Lester complained.
"In fact, it should be said at the meeting to discuss the armistice. Haven''t we just found a suitable opportunity? The main reason is that the demon temple. Considering that the reviewer obviously used that kind of thing to cover up its identity when interfering with the battle of the king''s capital, in that case, it shouldn''t be exposed. We can''t figure out the idea of the Dragon King. They seem to be different from the queen of the Dragon kingdom or our dragon The knight''s dragon is not a race in general. But perhaps the review country doesn''t want the kingdom to destroy the country. It just needs to acquiesce to this. I think the two countries will not enter a state of hostility. "
Even with the support of the goblin temple to a certain extent, the emperor would not want to be an enemy of a group of Dragon Kings. The relationship between the Empire and the goblin temple is not symbiotic.
"I see. Everyone here knows what to do about it?" Lester glanced at the generals on both sides of the table.
Some people who were taking notes immediately put down their pens, tore off the paper on the book and threw it into the oil lamp in the middle of the table. Although magic lights are very popular in the upper class, the imperial command can''t afford to install them, but natural flames have their unique uses. For example, now they can also react to some harmful gases and have a little sense of the role of assassination.
"Next, let''s discuss how to send envoys."
"But don''t you think it''s too naive?"
Lester looked at the cavalry general Ryan who said "naive".
"It''s just sending messengers. In that case, we may have to consider the deterioration of the situation," he said.
