350. The respective conspiracy
In a meeting room of the Nugus family estate, members of half of the southern aristocratic faction were gathering at this moment. The reason why it is said that it is half a faction is because the Boulder faction and its allies were not present, but this alone can already be seen from the influence of the Nugus family in the entire southern aristocratic faction.
And all of this comes from one person.
Hela. Nugus.
It was her appearance that made the entire Nugus family the hottest and largest family in the current Dabiang Kingdom, and even the Boulder family, who had been in the highest position in the Dabiang Kingdom before, had to bow their arrogant heads.
But at the moment, Hela. Nugus's face was not very pretty.
She stood at the head of the room, flanked to the right and left by her father, Yashan. Duke of Nugus and Jeon. Duke Howard. Then counting down on the side, there are loyal allies from the Nugus family and the Howard family, they have different positions according to their status and strength, basically the closer they are to the two dukes, they are naturally the nobles with higher status and stronger strength.
"According to the reports from the front on the Berbice Territory, our Baron has completely abandoned the Kiraff Territory." Yeen. Duke Howard made a report in a deep voice, because the viscount of the Burbis Territory was the one who chose to take refuge in him, so he was naturally the first to know everything about the Berbis Territory, "The three legions originally stationed in the Kiraf Territory have all withdrawn from the Kiraf Territory, and from the intelligence point of view, it seems that the entrance and exit of the Gap Rift have been blocked. ”
"So, they gave up the Kiraf Domain?" A powerful earl asked.
Duke Yeen was stunned for a moment, then put down the written report in his hand, took off his glasses, and said, "Perhaps...... So to speak. ”
"What the hell is he trying to do?" The other Earl of Real Power couldn't help but ask.
This is a question that no one present can answer. So everyone turned their attention to the woman sitting at the top.
It was her appearance that made the Nugus family and the Howard family join forces, and it was also her appearance that made the Nugus family the most powerful family in the current Dabiang Kingdom, and even the Boulder family, which was once the head of the five dukes, had to bow their heads. In the last few months, they have fully seen this woman's terrible tricks, and the methods she uses are actually known to many people present, to put it simply, it is nothing more than a combination of vertical and horizontal, but no one can be as successful as she is with every shot.
It is precisely because of this that for this woman sits in the first place. No one will be unconvinced.
After all, she is the next head of the Nugus family, and now that she has been pushed to the front of the stage, Yashan. Of course, Nugus will not steal the limelight with his own daughter, and Yeen. Howard simply sold his favor to Hela, and naturally he would not compete for a position with her. And so it goes. The other nobles who are attached to and surround these two ducal families will certainly not be so discerning to rank seniority with Hela.
At this time. Feel the gaze of all. Hela only smiled before she spoke, "I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I don't know much about your questions either, because I'm also very curious about what he wants to do." ”
Hearing Hela say this, all the nobles present were a little disappointed in their eyes. It's just that they are well disguised, and no one really shows it.
"Still." Hela glanced at the people present, and with her ability, she could easily catch the disappointment in their eyes.
And with Hela's "but", all the nobles present immediately raised their heads again. Gazing at Hela.
Feeling everyone's attention, Hela did not have the slightest stage fright, and there was a trace of excitement hidden in her calm eyes: "I am the one who knows the way, our Sean. Baron Connery has seen our trap. …… Burbis Collar has lost its value as bait. ”
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked.
Because they all know that in Hela's strategic plan, Berbis's collar is a big bait.
On the surface, it seems that Berbice is currently stationed with more than 80,000 troops, and there is a feeling of being strong. But at the same time, Hela also let people spread some news about the Burbis Territory, which is not very secret, but basically supplements the intelligence of the entire Burbice Territory, that is, the Burbice Territory is far from being as strong as it seems on the surface, and the garrisons are all old, weak, sick and disabled, even in the private soldiers of various nobles, they are cannon fodder.
It's a fact, but it's also another trap, it's up to Sean to believe it or not.
If Sean believes that sending troops to eat these 80,000 people, then his gain is a pile of broken copper and iron and tens of thousands of captives who may rebel and stab him in the back at any time, and as for the Berbice Territory, it will also be a ruined territory - Hela has already ordered that once the Berbice Territory cannot stop Sean's army, then all the things that can be destroyed in the Berbice Territory will be destroyed, leaving no benefit to Sean.
Therefore, as long as Sean sends troops to attack Burbis Territory, then not only will he not get any benefits, but he will also be invaded by Hela from Yedby Territory due to the problem of the emptiness of the territory caused by the mobilization of troops, and then directly take the Void City base camp of Panda Territory.
Of course, if Sean can't even eat these 80,000 cannon fodder, then there will be no tactics and strategies to speak of, and Hela only needs to push flat.
But now, Hela actually said that Sean saw her bait, which is tantamount to saying that everything they had prepared for the past few months was going to be in vain.
"There won't be nothing to gain." Looking at the faces of these nobles, Hela could easily guess what they were all thinking, so she just let out a chuckle, "You can let the Marquis of Soraka do the second step." …… Since Sean voluntarily gave up the Kiraf Territory, which was originally our Dabion's, it is nothing for us to take back this territory now. ”
The Chiralf Territory, strictly speaking, should be regarded as the territory of the Holder family, which is a nobleman of the pro-Boulder family faction, so this territory naturally does not belong to all the nobles present. It's just that Hela said very cleverly, "This territory belongs to Dabiang", which also gave the nobles present the qualification to occupy and divide this territory, after all, it was the Holder family who gave it up, and now it is their other southern nobles who have taken it back, and this credit will only be counted on their heads. Not on the head of the Holders, nor will it be on the heads of the Boulders.
This is another important reason why Hela arranged for the Boulder family to contain Asuna.
In the southeast of the battle line, Asuna is the most difficult bone to gnaw on, but the benefit that can be reaped is the smallest, which is tantamount to completely weakening the strength of the Boulder family.
On the contrary, on Sean's territory, there are five territories with high strategic value, such as the Chirav Territory, the rich Yedby Territory, the mature Dayi Territory and the Tinkiin Territory, and the Panda Territory, which is the core of Sean, which can be said to be the most valuable and attractive place. Of course, the most important thing is that the Dai Territory and the Kiraf Territory were both territories that once belonged to the Boulder faction, and this pleasure of dividing up the territory of the political opponent was enough to excite all the nobles present.
While winning the face of the kingdom of Dabiang, he was able to give the Boulder family a resounding slap in the face. It also made them feel aggrieved and had to swallow their anger, which is why everyone supported Hela's strategic plan.
At this time, although it was not carried out according to the original plan, it did not take a single soldier to take down the Qirav Domain, which was currently of great strategic value for the Kingdom of Dabion, and these nobles were of course very excited.
And after the excitement. They immediately became active: "So, Miss Hela. When do you think we're going to strike right away? ”
"It's not time yet." Hela shook her head. "It's been four or five months since the Boulder family had dragged on for a long time, and if we were to strike now, we would have to face the Marquis of Tonys head-on, which would be extremely disadvantageous for us. …… We've all been waiting for so long anyway, and we don't care about waiting another month or two. I am sure that His Majesty the King will soon issue an order to condemn the Boulders, and as soon as the Boulders are on the front, we can immediately send troops. ”
Hearing Hela's words, all the nobles nodded knowingly. Didn't say anything more.
"That's right." As if remembering something, Hela suddenly spoke again, "The survivors of the Hasteen family, have you found it?" ”
Hearing Hela's words, everyone's faces became a little embarrassed.
The most rear, or Yashan. Nugus spoke: "Sean, that guy is so clean that there is not a single survivor. …… At present, the only clue to the way is that Domingo's old guy's bastard son chose to join Sean, and now commands a force of nearly 5,000 troops stationed in Dai. In addition to this, there is also a side member of the Hastings family named Soma. Hasting, currently in the city of Hierro under the leadership of Yederby. ”
Hearing this, Hela's eyes suddenly lit up, and she immediately spoke: "Can you contact him?" ”
"Soma. Hasteen may be a little difficult, but I've secretly sent someone to contact Theon. ”
"Can you be sure that this person will come to us?" Hela couldn't help but ask, her strength was in the development of the big picture, and she was not completely sure of these uncertainties.
"I think it's going to be fine." Yashan. Nugus laughed, with an unconcealable smugness in his voice, "As far as I know, Seon has always had a good relationship with his father Domingo, and he admires his father very much, and now that Domingo has died at the hands of Sean, as long as we give Sean a chance to take revenge, he will definitely choose to join us." ”
Although Ahsan insisted that the trip would be successful, Hela always felt that there were some things that she had overlooked, and she couldn't remember anything for a while.
Her gaze couldn't help but fall on a piece of territory bordering the Dayi Territory.
It was a barren territory southeast of the Da'i Territory, called the So'an Territory.
This territory is the only loophole in her current overall plan. And this loophole originally needed to be filled by the Boulder family, but because the Boulder family has not moved for a long time, and as the Burbis Territory as a decoy loses its due value, the loophole formed by this territory is also being infinitely magnified - as long as Sean captures this territory and abandons the Kiraf Territory, Yedby Territory and Tinkiin Territory at the same time, then the strategic encirclement network she formed will become a joke.
But will Sean give up on Yederby and Tinciin?
Hela's instincts told her no, that the baron had only given up the Kiraf Domain to shrink the line. But I don't know what the road is about, Hela always has some uneasiness in her heart, because she always feels that something has been missed by her, but she can't think of anything for a while.
……
Meanwhile.
At the very moment when Sean chose to withdraw his troops from Kiraf, a heroic young woman finally stepped into the palace that she had not been in since she received the knighthood.
Ryan Palace.
And this woman is naturally the Marquis of Tonys, the thundering Valkyrie, and the Silver Sword Queen.
Asuna. G. Evans. (To be continued......)
