Age of Empires From Scratch Chapter 291

  Chapter 291 I seem to have seen this plot somewhere

  After the simple greetings, Baron Willy Soken got straight to the point and explained his main task of representing His Majesty the King to Winter City.

David listened quietly to Baron Soken's narration, and found that the envoy's mission was really to ask the lord of Winter City, Earl David Glamorgan, to fulfill his responsibilities and obligations, and lead his soldiers to help His Majesty the King pacify the Kingdom of Tilan rebellion.

  However, there is no hard requirement on how many soldiers the Earl of Glamorgan will bring. It seems that as long as David himself appears, it doesn't matter if he doesn't bring soldiers.

  He didn't know if his understanding was correct. If so, could the summoning order be a temptation by His Majesty the King?

   "Is the rebellion in the southern part of the kingdom serious?"

Baron Soken's question to David is not surprising, because on the surface, David-Earl of Glamorgan is just a new nobleman. Although he has been very eye-catching in the past two years and managed Winter City well, but Considering the time when the Earl of Glamorgan managed Winter City, and the northern plains were not very peaceful.

  Normally speaking, unless the rebellion in the kingdom is serious enough to endanger the survival of the entire Kingdom of Tiran, the Earl of Glamorgan, who guards the northern plain, should not be called in to help counter the rebellion.

  Speaking of this, Baron Soken was shocked by the current appearance of Winter City. Even if he had learned some information before departure, he still felt amazing. You must know that this place was still a wasteland that no one had set foot on two years ago.

   Withdrawing his thoughts that were a little bit off, Baron Soken briefly explained why His Majesty the King asked David to lead troops to the capital: "Actually, the rebellion in the south is not difficult to solve, and it doesn't even threaten the surrounding areas."

  David didn't interrupt, quietly waiting for the follow-up explanation.

"However, intelligence shows that both the Holy Gunter Kingdom and the Soduruma Empire are mobilizing troops on a large scale. The specific movement of the Soduruma Empire's troops is still unclear, but the Holy Gunter Kingdom has deployed a large number of troops to the border. up."

  Hearing this, David understood what was going on. Abelson mobilized his troops not to counter the rebellion, but to guard against the Holy Gunter Kingdom.

   "Holy Kingdom of Gaunt? Are they going to declare war on the Kingdom of Tiran?"

"We still don't know what the Holy Gunter Kingdom is going to do, but the other party has deployed a large number of troops on the border, and we have to do nothing." Baron Soken thought that the time for David to become a nobleman was still too short, and he was very concerned about the mainland. I don't know the situation of several major countries, so I told David the situation between the next few countries.

  The relationship between the Kingdom of Tilan and several major countries around it is not good. The kingdom of Tilan has risen too fast, and its continuous crazy expansion has long aroused the vigilance of the Sodulunma Empire.

  The Kingdom of Holy Gunter wanted to spread the influence of the Temple to the entire continent. The friction between several countries has never stopped. Even ten years ago, they fought a battle with the Kingdom of Holy Gunter.

   "So it is."

There are already various grievances and grievances between the two sides, mixed with the struggle of faith. The Kingdom of Holy Gunter is a country that may launch an attack on the Kingdom of Tilan at any time. It is not too much to be cautious about all kinds of changes in the kingdom.

  So, Baron Sorken is not the only envoy who is traveling around this time. The capital sent many envoys to various territories to summon the lords of the Kingdom of Tilan to the capital.

   "What time?"

   "It is best to arrive in the capital within a month."

   "Are there any requirements for the military strength?"

   "No requirements."

   "Are all lords like this?"

   Baron Soken shook his head: "Your Majesty made this decision considering that the situation in the northern plain has not yet been completely stabilized."

  According to the order issued by His Majesty the King, the lords from all over the Kingdom of Tilan must lead at least 50 soldiers to the capital of Tilan Kingdom according to the location, size and title of their territories.

   It can be said that Abelson has indeed issued a national mobilization order. David feels that this stance may not only be a confrontation with the Holy Gunter Kingdom, but the possibility of directly starting a fight if there is a disagreement seems to be higher.

   "I see, but before leaving Winter City for the capital, I may make some arrangements."

   Baron Soken said that this is not a problem. All lords will make some arrangements before leaving the territory. It is impossible to take the soldiers and horses to the capital immediately on the day the order is delivered.

  David asked Elias to arrange accommodation for Baron Soken and the envoys led by him, and went straight to the conference room by himself.

   "Call Wetherby, Addis, Elizabeth, Pierre, Gareth, Optimus Prime to a meeting."

   "Without notifying Tony?"

  David thought for a while, since Tony has already held the title of consultant in Winter City, he can no longer be regarded as a mere 'guest'.

  In addition, people like Jaina, Cirvanas, Renault, etc. have to be notified. What if these people come to me for something when I go out?

  That's right, David has already decided: respond to His Majesty's summons, and take people to the capital.

  He will not refuse this recruitment order. Anyway, the various decrees of Winter City have been confirmed, and the next step is to develop step by step.

  During this period of time, he had nothing to do, so he could just go and have a look elsewhere.

  Since you have already set your sights on a wider area, it is also a normal choice to go out and have a look in advance.

   Moreover, David felt that this was actually a temptation by His Majesty the King. Abelson might have wanted to use this method to determine how many lords in the Kingdom of Tilan were truly loyal to the kingdom.

   "Maybe there will be sideshows such as dismounting and deterring those swaying lords!"

   Being idle is also idle, so let's go and have fun!

  Besides, this time David may be able to see the true combat power of the Tiran Knights. His Majesty King Abelson should show off the new equipment, right?

  Sitting at the head of the conference room, David's brain kept spinning, thinking about the benefits of this trip, what benefits could he gain?

  In addition to being able to obtain various intelligence information, David would like to make some contributions. If possible, he can take advantage of the opportunity to mention his title again. Maybe his golden finger can be upgraded again?

Or, bring the Winter Knights with you, let the Winter Knights gain a great reputation, make Winter City known to all the forces on the Brennian continent, and lay the foundation for the establishment of the Winter Kingdom in the future... If you do this, Will Goldfinger be upgraded?

   While David was thinking about this, the people whose names he called came to the conference room one after another.

  Because of his stature, Optimus Prime could only participate in this meeting through a holographic image, but this is not a big problem, everyone is used to it.

   "Okay, everyone is here."

Everyone sits quietly in their seats, and the only ones who can 'wake up' the lord with such a tone are the current weapons contractor of Winter City, the chief engineer of new weapon development, the energy supply contractor, and the general manager of Winter City. Chief Advisor Tony Stark.

  Not to mention Tony's personality, his identity also allows him to enjoy various privileges.

"What happened?"

  Everyone arrived today. Tony remembered that there were so many people sitting in the meeting room last time. It was David who decided to go to war against the orcs.

  So, there must be another major event happening today.

David first took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then told His Majesty Abelson, the king of Tilan Kingdom, to send envoys to the lords all over the country to recruit the lords to lead troops to the king's capital to suppress the rebellion, and to confront the Holy Gunter Kingdom. Say it again.

After everyone listened, they expressed their opinions one after another. David listened for a while and found that everyone had the same idea as himself. They all felt that Abelson recruited the lords of the whole country to test whether there were any other lords among the many lords. Disagreement? The second is to intimidate everyone with bright muscles, so that those lords who are a little vacillating and ready to make troubles calm down.

  Strictly speaking, David is also a lord with a different heart, but he is willing to go to the capital, the greater purpose is to see the reality of Tilan Kingdom up close, right?

  All the people present were their own people, and they could all guess what David was thinking. Tony even asked David directly how many people he planned to bring to the capital? If he brought too many, he would reasonably suspect that David couldn't wait any longer and was going to sit directly on the throne?

   "It's enough to bring a few people to make a wish. His Majesty the King thinks that the northern plain is not stable enough, so I don't need to bring too many soldiers."

   "Oh~" Tony suddenly thought of a possibility: "You said, does His Majesty the King not want you to lead troops to the capital at all?"

"How to say?"

  Tony spread his hands: "Isn't this obvious? His Majesty the King has actually had doubts about you in his heart, and he called you into the capital alone, and then... raised his sword."

  “Many novels and movies are written like this.”

  David certainly knows, he has seen many similar plots, but Abelson probably won't attack himself, right? In that case why did he send his daughter to Winter City?

   It can't be intentional to paralyze yourself, right?

   "My lord, this possibility cannot be ruled out." As a personal guard knight, Gareth Stanton was very loyal and would not speak for Abelson just because he was His Majesty the King of the Kingdom of Tilan.

  He swore allegiance to David, and he would only think from the perspective of Lord David, Earl of Glamorgan.

   "Don't worry, this may not be a big..." David thought about it carefully, and there should be no danger.

  The next second, he felt as if he had planted a flag, and then he remembered that his territory was called Winter City, guarding the north, and the plot about going to the royal capital...a strong sense of sight.

"Besides, have you forgotten how strong I am? Even if the king really attacks me, I can still deal with it!" Strong strength is the greatest guarantee for my own safety: "As long as Tony doesn't go to the capital with me, I'm absolutely safe."

  Tony: "…"
