The King Chapter 192

  Chapter 192 Alliance Meeting

  Dapes, since receiving the news of the increase in troops, Chris IX's good mood is gone.

  I thought that with the arrival of reinforcements from various countries, the situation would turn around, but I didn't expect that with the increase of orcs, everything would return to the original point.

   Don't say that they launched a counterattack against the orcs, and the defense alone made them tired.

   "Your Majesty, the military pressure on the front line is very high now. Marshal Hodge has issued two calls for help, and many fortresses on the front line have been captured by the enemy.

  Although the core pass is still in our hands, if the current situation continues, the defenders on the front line may not last long.

  According to the battle damage reported by the front line, in the last half month alone, our troop loss has exceeded 20,000. "

   Martins said with a bitter face.

  Others may contain moisture, but it is absolutely impossible to overreport the battle damage. If there is one less soldier, one less supply will be distributed. No one dares to make fun of the soldier's belly.

  The loss of 20,000 people in half a month does not seem to be much. But the problem is that the Principality of Moxi is the side defending the city. From the outbreak of the war to the present, they have successively lost 200,000 troops.

  Most of them were caused by the fall of the Augustsburg defense line, and the rest were accumulated in successive battles.

  For a country with a population of just over 8 million, this is already one-fortieth of the population.

  If the enemy is not a vicious orc, I am afraid that different voices have emerged in the country.

   "Where are our allies?"

  Chris IX asked with concern.

  No one can do anything about the battle damage on the front line. The domestic war potential has almost been tapped.

  Even if there are still young adults available, training still takes time!

   From serf to soldier, such a career span, there is no one year or a half that I can't adapt to.

   In fact, this kind of transformation will only take longer. Who made the Principality of Moxi lack enough qualified grassroots officers?

   With the fall of the Fort August defense line, the Principality of Moxi lost not only the army, but also a large number of officers with rich combat experience.

  Even the most elite legions of the principality suffered heavy losses on the front line, and have not been able to recover their strength so far.

   "Your Majesty, the Alpha Kingdom's follow-up reinforcements are less than a hundred miles away from Da Pest, and they are currently undergoing rest and training.

  Crown Prince Caesar promised that as long as the remaining five legions of the expeditionary force were assembled, they would go to the front.

  The reinforcements of the Principality of Orton are still 120 miles away from Da Pest. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has already done a good job in communication, and it is estimated that they will be able to go to the front line in ten days.

  The reinforcements from the Principality of Fick and Earl of Ruilin entered our country five days ago, and they are expected to go to the front line at the end of the month.

  The remaining countries have also completed military recruitment training one after another. It is expected that next month, he will be able to go to the front line to fight.

  The trouble is that something went wrong on the Warhammer Kingdom. They used the excuse of restraining the orc army to stop all the promised reinforcements in the border area. "

   Renato replied calmly.

  The answer sheet handed over by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs cannot be said to be perfect, but it can be regarded as quite satisfactory.

   Ally, this thing. It would be nice to be able to come over to help, but if you want someone to be the main force, it would be a bit embarrassing.

  Even if reinforcements are sent, the proportion of the standing army is very low. In the current situation, there are not many people who are optimistic about the Principality of Moxi.

  Countries dispatched troops to reinforce, in addition to fulfilling the obligations of allies, they are still buying time for themselves.

  For a group of small countries, they also hope that the Principality of Moxi can delay until the Terran Alliance joins the war, so as to avoid burning the war to their own territory.

  Looking at the reaction of the Warhammer Kingdom, it seems that they have done a great thing in the name of containing the orc army, but in fact they are strengthening the defense of their own border areas.

  There is nothing to blame, it is human nature to tend to the pros and cons. The premise of helping your allies is to protect yourself first.

   "Deploy three new legions in training to reinforce the front line, recruit all advanced mages from the Magic Academy, and recruit domestic mercenary organizations, chambers of commerce... and other civilian forces to join the army.

  Tell Marshal Hodge: Follow-up reinforcements will arrive soon. The Principality has no way out, and Terrence's line of defense must not be lost no matter what.

  The Ministry of Foreign Affairs directly raised the mercenary mission issued in the country of mercenaries to the highest level, and invited all mercenary groups on the mainland to participate in the battle against the orcs.

  Everything is based on the number of five royal orcs killed, and there is no upper limit on the bounty. We can give gold, silver and jewelry, titles of beauties, cultivation resources, and even fiefdoms.

  Specific standards, you discuss and formulate.

   Those assassin organizations hidden in the dark cannot be ignored. Hang all the big orcs on me, and if you can kill one, it counts as one.

  In short, the Principality of Moxi has reached the moment of life and death. From now on, we must make up our minds and use all our strength to deal with the orcs! "

   After finishing speaking, Chris IX sighed deeply. He has done all the work that can be done, and the rest can only be left to fate.

  If increasing the intensity of mobilization and recruiting mercenaries to fight are normal operations, then running to the Assassin Organization to take up missions is a sign of moral integrity.

   If it was not at the end of the mountain, Chris IX would not use this infamous method to ruin his reputation.

   On July 17, 99988 in the sacred calendar, the 17th Terran Alliance Conference kicked off in Lutetia.

   There were no flowers, no applause, only the dignified faces of the representatives present.

  The turbulent situation in the mainland has become more and more serious, and has had a serious impact on the dominance of the human race in the mainland.

  The group of alien races who are about to move, seem to be getting better. These days, they have been stretching out their tentacles to test, as if it is the prelude to the storm.

  As the initiator and host of this alliance meeting, Charles III naturally became the host of this round of meeting.

   "Welcome everyone to Lutetia to participate in the 17th Alliance Expansion Meeting of the Terran Alliance.

  Same as previous meetings, the topic we are discussing now is how to maintain the position of our human race on the continent of Aslante.

  The mainland has been at peace for decades, and now it has come to an era of turbulence. I think everyone has felt it. In the past few years, the friction between us and various ethnic groups has suddenly increased.

   The relevant information was handed over to you two days ago, and everyone must have read it by now.

  According to past experience, every hundred years, thousands of years, and ten thousand years in the sacred calendar, the Aslant Continent will be full of flames.

  And these catastrophes are constantly being replaced. From the Titans and dragons in ancient times to the elves in the middle ages, almost every change of the continent's overlord is related to the ten thousand year node.

  Although they didn't fall immediately, they all made mistakes at such critical points, which hurt their own vitality, and then slowly declined and were replaced by latecomers.

  Compared with the major events that happened every ten thousand years in history, the current invasion of northern orcs and the frequent disturbances of alien races in various places can only be regarded as the prelude to the coming of the great era.

  Especially now that we have caught up with the first 100,000 years, the foreign races have invaded in an all-round way, the sea clan has made a comeback, or maybe it is the invasion of demons. No one knows what weird disasters will happen this time.

  In order to deal with the complex situation that may occur next, today's meeting was held.

  Out of a responsible attitude towards the human race, I hope that representatives of the congressmen can abandon the past disputes and make fair and objective decisions in the next meeting!

  Charles III's speech made the already dignified atmosphere in the hall even more depressing.

  The fate of the race, this topic is too heavy. Even some representatives who were at odds with the Frankish Kingdom did not dare to mess around with this issue.

  It may be a coincidence that history happens once, but it must not be a coincidence if it repeats itself every time.

  Any carelessness may lead to unpredictable consequences.

  In ancient times, the human race was just one of many small races. It is precisely because of the replacement of the overlord of the mainland and the reshuffle of forces time and time again that he slowly accumulated his family fortune.

  It took only a few hundred years for the human race to truly seize the hegemony of the mainland. Compared with the ancient races that have ruled the mainland for many years, they do not have any advantages.

  The only difference is that the human race is divided, facing internal and external competition, which has never stopped, and everyone has a stronger sense of urgency.

  Even if some countries are corrupt and degenerate, most of the human race countries are still operating normally and have not entered a period of decline.

   Unlike the overlords in the ancient times, there is only one unified regime. Once the interior begins to degenerate, it will embark on a road of no return.

   "Your Majesty Charlie is right. At the juncture of the 100,000 years of the sacred calendar, we must unite to face the challenges we may encounter next.

  I suggest that everyone join hands to clean up the hidden dangers that may threaten us first, for example: the orc empire that invaded the northern border of our human race. "

  The representative of Alpha Kingdom was the first to respond.

  The scripts are all well-arranged, and now they are only performed according to the prior agreement. Anyway, all the facts are stated, and the orcs are indeed the biggest unstable factor.

  In the past years, they have launched dozens of wars in an attempt to regain their lost supremacy.

  If it is really decided to clear the field in advance, the Orc Empire will be the first nail to be pulled out. Even if they couldn't be uprooted, the orcs had to be maimed first.

  This proposal, which is in line with the interests of the northern countries, immediately won the support of the representatives of the northern countries. Coupled with the strong support of the Frankish Kingdom, it immediately entered the voting stage.

  Without any surprises, the proposal was passed by a high number of votes. It's just that when it comes to the specific dispatch of troops, it's a different scene in an instant.

  Supporting the proposal is for the sake of the overall situation. In the past years, beating orcs was also a routine activity of the human race.

   Almost every few decades, the two sides will fight once. One after another toss, all countries have long hated orcs to the extreme.

   When it was time to contribute, everyone's vital interests were involved, and the representatives returned from enthusiasm to rationality.

  Terence defense line, staying in Hudson in the barracks, finally ushered in a heavyweight visitor, Earl Sanford, the front-line quartermaster of the Principality of Mosi.

  Different from his indifferent attitude towards the hapless Viscount Gio, Hudson still gave enough face to a powerful bureaucrat like Earl Sanford.

   According to noble etiquette, the reception was conducted in a satisfactory manner. While flattering each other, the two chatted happily, as if they were old friends meeting each other.

   "Dear Earl of Hudson, we are deeply sorry for the misunderstanding that occurred in front of the logistics.

  I came here this time to apologize to you on behalf of the ignorant guys in the logistics department.

  In order to show sincerity, I also brought the magic crossbow assigned to your army by the capital in advance. "

  After listening to Earl Sanford's words, Hudson knew that today's topic had begun. When it comes to interest disputes, it cannot be resolved with a few polite words.

   Obtaining the magic crossbow in advance can only be regarded as a favor at best, and it is still far from enough to satisfy Hudson.

   "Earl Sanford is polite, if it's just a matter of my personal face, this is indeed a trivial matter, as long as the misunderstanding is cleared up.

   But the problem is that this matter involves the dignity of our Alpha Kingdom, so your country must show a gesture to prove the importance it attaches to us. "

   Hudson said with a smile.

   Originally, he hated going online the most, but when it was his turn, he suddenly discovered that this thing is really easy to use.

   If the dignity of a country is involved, it cannot be solved by friendship. No matter who you choose as a lobbyist, you must be cautious on this issue.

   "Earl Hudson can rest assured, I came here with the most sincere sincerity. What do you think we can do to make up for our previous mistakes, even if we say it."

  While speaking, Earl Sanford's heart was bleeding. This is the first time since he served as a quartermaster.

  In the past, no matter which general met him, he had to be polite. Every now and then, I have to offer a generous gift.

  Even Marshal Hodge, the commander-in-chief of the front line, had to sell some face when he saw him. Never had such humiliation.

   "I have already felt Earl Sanford's sincerity. Since your country is so sincere, then I won't hide it.

  For the sake of the friendship between the two countries, I will not mention the excessive demands. Now there are only a few symbolic small requests, all of which are within the scope of your authority. "

   While speaking, Hudson handed over a prepared parchment, and Earl Sanford was instantly dumbfounded.

  I thought that he would be able to take things lightly after working so hard to build a friendship for so long, but I didn't expect the turning point to come so quickly.

  Looking at the supplies on the list, Earl Sanford's face turned green. Ordinary meat and arrows are fine, it is not a big problem to distribute more to the guest army.

  The problem is all kinds of magic equipment, such as: magic crystal cannon, magic bed crossbow, magic catapult...

  As long as it is owned by the Principality of Moxi, it will appear on the list. The weapons and equipment are all gone, and ammunition supplies are naturally indispensable.

  Looking at the number of magic cores and magic spar required above, Earl Sanford was very suspicious of wanting to evacuate his logistics department.

   "Earl Hudson, there are too many of these things. To tell you the truth, I have opened up all the inventory on the front line, and I can't make it out.

   What's more, many of the equipment on it are heavy weapons. Although the power is very good, it is very inconvenient to carry in the field.

   In addition, there are craftsmen, peasants, and livestock, which you don't need at all! "

   Earl Sanford cried helplessly.

  As a quartermaster for so many years, he felt like a poor ghost for the first time. Looking at this list, it's like you haven't seen the market before.

"Ha ha…"

   "Earl Sanford, you are too petty. There is no front line, but it does not mean that there is no principality. As long as you are willing to find a way, you will definitely be able to get it together.

   It is nothing more than reporting more battle damage. The battle on the front line is so fierce, and the loss of magic equipment is also reasonable.

  As for the peasants, artisans, and animals, when these things are all in place, won't they be needed?

   Anyway, they are all for dealing with orcs, no matter which legion they are equipped with, it is not the same.

   If you are worried about trouble, we can publicize that this kind of weapons and equipment are all brought from the Alpha Kingdom.

   If anyone has any objections, let them go to the Alpha Kingdom to investigate. If the evidence can be found, all the responsibility is mine! "

   Hudson said unceremoniously.
