302. The desperate situation of the Boulder family
War is not a theme in this world, but it is definitely one of the eternal themes.
Even if the Kingdom of Dabion didn't pay attention to the affairs of the south before, the war between the two lords of Tingchiin and Panda has now been over for almost two months, and no matter how closed the news is, it is impossible to still know the truth. What's more, if it is a trivial matter that the two territories of Tinchiin and Yedby are in the hands of the lord of Panda, then it is not a trivial matter that the Hasteen family has been completely removed from Dabiang.
This is simply a slap in the face of all the nobles of Dabiang!
At this moment, in the grand council hall located in the royal capital of Dabiang, including the current king, two princes, and five dukes of Dabiang, a total of fifteen truly powerful nobles have all gathered here.
"What do you think about this?"
It was a middle-aged man sitting at the head of the Grand Council Chamber. He has short flaxen hair, no beard on his face, but the whole person exudes a heroic aura, coupled with his expressionless face at the moment, his tone of voice is very low, and a surging aura of slaughter continues to emerge from him, it is obvious that this middle-aged man is really angry.
This person is the current king of Dabiang, Moro VII.
Of course, the kingdom of Dabion has been passed down for more than seven generations, and Moro was not originally called by that name. It's just that the kings of the Kingdom of Dabion have been called Moro for generations are really virtuous kings, and Moro yearns for the domineering spirit of opening up territory, so he changed his name to Moro, because he is the seventh king to take this name, in order to distinguish himself from his predecessors, so he is called Moro VII.
But it has been a full eleven years since he succeeded to the throne, let alone expanding Dabiang's territory. He even almost lost the entire southern part of Dabion, and several frictions and conflicts with the neighboring fascist kingdom ended in failure, much to the displeasure of Moro VII. Now because of the problem of the Panda Territory, coupled with the successive loss of several territories such as the Dayi Territory, the Kiraf Territory, the Tinchiin Territory, and the Yedby Territory, even the Hasteen family has been wiped out, which naturally makes him even more angry.
Hearing Moro VII's words at this moment, the other fourteen people present had already realized some problems, but no one would be the first to speak at this time.
The people present are all the heads of powerful families, which one is not mixed up in countless conspiracies and bloodshed, no matter how young he is, he must be an extremely shrewd person. So at this point they are all very clear. If the other party is just a baron, who cares, it will definitely be fought a long time ago, but the other party can completely annihilate the 30,000 troops of Tingqiin and the second cavalry regiment of Dabiang supported by the kingdom with 20,000 troops within a month, and the opponent's military attainments must be very strong.
Of course, the most important thing is. They all knew very well that behind the baron was the demon of the Tonis Fortress!
If this crusade is won. Well, of course, everyone is happy. But if you lose, then the fate can be imagined. Even if that demon is lured out, I'm afraid this will be the trigger for another war between the two countries.
Now, less than four years have passed since the last war between the two countries, and the kingdom of Dabion has not yet recovered.
If this were not the case, how could it be possible for an earl to be defeated by a baron's 20,000 troops?
In the war that swept across the southern part of Dabiang, Count Tinchiin was one of the main forces of the war. But it's a pity that the war made all the 50,000 troops under his command run out, and then these 30,000 horses were slowly replenished in the past few years, and there must be a huge gap between the combat power and before.
At this moment, except for Moro VII, among the other fourteen nobles. Belonging to the southern aristocratic faction are the three dukes of Nugus, Boulder, and Howard, as well as Cazes. Prince Hodgdi and the two Marquis of Romea and Soraka were six people, while the other eight were the southeastern aristocratic faction, the northwestern aristocratic faction, and the royalists. If it weren't for the disagreement between Boulder and the other two dukes in the southern aristocratic faction, and the Marquis of Romea was also a supporter of the Boulder family, it could be said that the southern aristocratic faction was the most powerful in the entire upper aristocratic circle.
But even so, after the war between the Duchy of Lane and the Kingdom of Dabiang, only the three dukes and Prince Cazes in the southern region still retain a relatively complete strength, and the other nobles, even the two powerful marquis of Romea and Soraka, have a huge gap from four years ago. And now this gap is beginning to affect the northeast of the kingdom, after all, when the war with the Duchy of Lane started, the first to rush to the battlefield to support the lords in the northeast of the kingdom were the first to rush to the battlefield, so this also laid the groundwork for their defeat in the conflict with the fascist kingdom.
Under such circumstances, the southern aristocratic circle and the northeastern aristocratic circle definitely don't want to start a war with Asuna, they couldn't fight in their heyday, can they still fight this kind of vitality damage now?
They're not stupid.
And when no one answered, Moro VII's face became even more ugly.
"Humph!"
A cold snort came out of Moro VII's nose.
It seems to feel the displeasure of Moro VII, Ashan. Nugus suddenly spoke: "Your Majesty, I think that only through war can this matter wash away our shame!" The lord of the Panda Lord, who has provoked us again and again, and even occupied so many of our territories one after another, this is no longer a simple dispute between nobles, but a naked invasion! If we don't fight back immediately, then we will be considered easy to bully by other countries, and then we will face the dilemma of being attacked from all sides! ”
"I support Lord Ashan's opinion." Sit in Yashan. Jeon next to Nugus. Howard said in a deep voice, "If the blockade of the entrance and exit of the Gap Rift was still a matter of government affairs in his territory, we would have no excuse to intervene, but this time we actually put Domingo. Lord Hestin's entire family has been uprooted, and this murderous method is no longer a simple declaration of war, but a disregard and humiliation of our kingdom of Dabiang! Only war can wash away this shame! ”
Hear Jen. Howard's words were equally impressive to the others present, especially Prince Cazes and the Marquis of Soraka.
As members of the southern aristocratic faction closest to the Gap Rift, they certainly knew very well what the import and export of this wild land meant. It's only been locked down by Sean for nearly a year. It has already caused them to run a complete deficit in their finances these days, and if they continue, I am afraid that they may start to sell things, after all, the higher the rank, the higher the nobles, the greater the expenses in order to show the difference in status and privilege.
Previously, they really had no excuse to officially send troops to Panda, so they could only secretly send people to try to infiltrate the Gap Rift, but none of them failed. And now with Tidogo. Hasting's revenge, and the recovery of the occupied Tinchiin and Yedby Realms, then this is an excuse to send troops to attack the Panda Territory, even if they haven't been tempted before. At this moment, I am already completely tempted.
And after saying this, Yean. Howard glanced at Ahsan out of the corner of his eye. Nugus, sure enough, nodded imperceptibly.
In fact, as early as more than half a month ago, he had already been with Yashan. Nugus had a secret meeting once. That time there was also his daughter Hela. Nugus. In that meeting, he hinted through Hela's. Finally saw Sean. Connery's next move. At the same time, it is also determined by this and Yashan. Nugus's determination to cooperate. And today, the two of them opened their mouths, according to Hela's instructions, the first move was to stir up everyone's interest in the war.
"There are many ways to wash away shame, and it doesn't have to be the means of war." Hatch. Duke Boulder said in a deep voice, "And even if it is used as an excuse, if the other party agrees to return the ...... of the Tinchiin and Yedby Domains."
"The Duke of Tequila's words really reminded me." Don't wait for Hatch. Boulder finished speaking, Yashan. And Nugus spoke. "Your Majesty, I think it is imperative for us to find a member of the Hastings family first, only then can we use 'blood revenge' as an excuse, so that even if Sean ... Lord Connery returned the Tinchiin and Yedby Realms. We still have an excuse to continue the war! ”
Hearing this, Boulder's brow furrowed slightly, and he felt that this time something seemed to be completely out of his expectations. Because in his impression, even if the two old guys, Nugus and Howard, still retain a certain amount of strength and hole cards like himself, but after seeing the military talent of Marquis Tonis, it is impossible for them to maintain such an optimistic offensive mentality, because it is very likely to be a big defeat.
And if they provoke the marquis and lose the war on their side, they will be greeted by a real invasion.
Everyone believed that the marquis was not a good person.
That's why no one wants to provoke the marquis.
"That marquis is indeed a troublesome ......" spoke to King Moro VII of Dabion, who was obviously a little troubled by Asuna as well.
But Yashan. Nugus knew very well that the really most important legion of the Marquises, Thundering Front, was now only 7,000 people, and its combat power was definitely much inferior to that of his time, and if he didn't attack at this time, he would inevitably miss the best opportunity to attack.
And at this moment, after hearing the words of Moro VII, Yashan didn't think about it, and immediately said: "We can claim that this is a blood revenge, in such a situation, if the marquis still wants to intervene, then it is impossible for her to get the support of the Duchy of Lane, and I have referred to the war case four years ago, only in the case of that marquisess, its strength cannot pose a threat to us at all, not to mention that we also have two strong armies of the Duke of Tequila, I believe that under the combination of these two strong armies, Even the Marquis would never be able to ask for any good. ”
Hearing Yashan's words, Hatch. Boulder immediately understood that it was his army that these people were really calculating!
If he really sent his army to war with Asuna's Thundering Edge, he knew that the outcome would be a lose-lose situation, and as for winning Asuna, Hatch thought that no one in his territory could do it.
"Your Majesty!" After realizing that the other party was plotting his own army and trying to weaken his own strength, Hatch could no longer sit still.
"Of course we won't let the Duke of Tequila's army die in vain, we're just asking the Duke to be able to play a diversion role, that's no problem, right?"
Rack roast in the volcano!
Hatch's eyes were cold, he didn't expect Yashan who had never been in his eyes before. How could Nugus suddenly become so ruthless, this is not at all like a strategy he can come up with! At this moment, Hatch immediately realized that Yashan. Nugus had a very resourceful staff behind him, otherwise he would never have been so well prepared.
Soon, Hatch immediately knew who the person who was giving advice to Yashan was.
Hela. Nugus, Ashan. Nugus's daughter!
He never thought that Yashan's daughter would be so terrible! If it was in normal times, he would still have a chance to excuse himself, but today on this occasion, the other party clearly took advantage of the general trend to directly follow the trend, and just a few words forced him to a situation where there was no way out. And when I thought that this woman was the next heir of the Nugus family, Hatch. Boulder's face became even more ugly.
Sure enough, before Hatch could speak again, Moro VII nodded: "This is indeed a very good idea, so let's do it!" We must wash away this shame as soon as possible! (To be continued......)
