The King Chapter 264

  Chapter 264 Borrowing Dragons to Kill People

   Without any surprises, the alliance meeting still failed to discuss the results. Charles III, who led the meeting, was still hesitating.

  He wanted the feat of exterminating the orcs, but he was unwilling to bear the price of destroying the orcs by the Frankish Kingdom.

   It involves national interests, and everyone is realistic. Except for the countries in the north, it is difficult for them to share the real benefits of destroying the orc empire.

  Especially in the case of the ambiguous attitude of the Alpha Kingdom, the plan of replacing the country will definitely not work, at most it will be allocated an enclave on the corpse of the Orc Empire.

  Expanding the territory seems to be very wonderful, but the prerequisite is that the obtained territory is fertile.

   Most of the territory where the orc empire is located is a place of bitter cold. The fact that orcs can survive does not mean that humans can also survive.

   Even if you get good land, it is still a piece of white land. If you want to develop it, you will have to spend a lot of money.

   To put it bluntly, this vote was done. Charles III didn't have to do anything, and spent the rest of his life concentrating on developing new territories.

  Long-term investment will not see benefits, even if the enclave is developed, it will be difficult to obtain substantial benefits.

  Considering that the difficulty of management is not directly proportional to the benefits, it is better to let the local people build their own country directly.

   It is not worthwhile to destroy the orcs, but it is also not the best policy to let the orcs go. The Terran Alliance has engaged in such a big battle, if they do nothing, what will it be like?

  At least for the host, Charles III, the loss of prestige will be very large.

  The Kingdom of Franks with the most voice has an ambiguous attitude, the Kingdom of Alpha pretends to be deaf and dumb, and another major force, the Holy See, strongly opposes it. The support of the northern countries alone is obviously not enough to influence the decision-making of the Alliance Conference.

  In fact, the Holy See doesn't care about whether or not the Orc Empire will be wiped out. The strong opposition at this moment is mainly because they do not want the alliance meeting to make an immediate decision.

  The main force of the Alpha Kingdom is trapped in the Orc Empire, which is exactly what they want to see. The longer the delay, the lower the probability that this army will withdraw.

  No matter what choice the Terran Alliance makes, the day when the result comes out is when the front line will see the outcome.

  The current Northern Expeditionary Army has not yet reached the point of desperation. Breaking through and leaving at this time will at most suffer heavy losses, but it will certainly not be wiped out.

  Perhaps in the short term, the Alpha Kingdom will fall into decline, but once there is no orc empire to hold them back, they will rise again soon.

   Among the top three military powers of the human race, the Kingdom of Frank and the Kingdom of Iberia rely on their strong strength, while the Kingdom of Alpha is an advanced "mobilization mechanism".

   There are countries that are similar to the Alpha Kingdom in all aspects, but when it comes to mobilization capabilities, these countries are not half as efficient.

  The efficient mobilization mechanism allowed the Alpha Kingdom to rank among the top three among the Terrans despite the lack of high-end strength and elite numbers.

  Compared to these things that can be seen, what makes the Holy See fear the most is the resilience of the Alpha Kingdom. A country devastated by the orc empire, able to stand up every time.

   There are so many powerful countries, but they all turn into dust in the end. There are only a few words in the history books to prove that they existed.

   There is only one country that falls and falls again and again and stands up again and again.

   Such an enemy, if he doesn't take the opportunity to inflict heavy damage. Once the orc empire is gone, the rising Alpha Kingdom will be their nightmare.

   After all, high-end power can be accumulated slowly over time. If fifty years is not enough, wait a hundred years. One hundred years is not enough, two hundred years is still possible.

  Time passed day by day, and it was half a month in a flash. The Human Race Alliance did not give a reply, and the Orc Empire was also in a panic.

   "The situation is not good. The Terran Alliance seems to have discovered something. Maybe we should let Maxim show up and put pressure on them!

  Of course, all ethnic groups in the mainland must also speed up public relations. Regardless of the strength of each race, the more races involved now, the greater the pressure on the human race.

  Especially those big families, we must explain the pros and cons to them. If we really fall, they will have a good life for a few days.

  The ambitions of the human race are unlimited. If they are not curbed, they will unify the continent sooner or later! "

   Xiong Renhuang said solemnly.

  No matter how many shortcomings, he is also an emperor. Having a bad temper does not mean that you have no brains. When you are rational, you are not bad at political wisdom.

   "It is easy to let Maxim show up, but whether it can deter the human race is still unknown.

   If it is not done well, it will backfire. The current human race should only doubt the authenticity of the dragon's intervention.

  If it is too obvious and let them discover the problem, it will really block the way of negotiation.

  The best thing is to let the red dragon go out by itself, it doesn't look so deliberate.

  Public relations of all races, everyone has been working hard. Now we have convinced the dwarves, half-orcs, and barbarians, and are working hard to lobby the elves and wood elves.

  Except for these big families, the rest of the small families can only make up a few, and the right to speak is very limited.

  The Sea Clan, if anyone has a relationship, you can also contact them. If they can encourage them to invade the human race again, it is worth paying a certain price.

  Instead of deterring the human race, it is better to intimidate the Alpha Kingdom, the Warhammer Kingdom and the Principality of Moxi first. After getting rid of them, the strength of the main combat faction in the human race was weakened by half.

   Let the Holy See solve the rest for us. In this war, they may have played a disgraceful role, and it just so happens that I have some evidence in my hands.

   If they don't help, poke things out in secret. And spread to the outside world that we have reached an agreement with them to lead the armies of various countries into a trap and destroy them. "

   Alex said murderously.

   In order to keep the orc empire, he also took great pains. Even the strategy of alienating the Human Race Alliance was taken out.

  With the relationship between the nations of the human race and the Holy See, it is hard not to be suspicious when hearing such rumors. If a little more "evidence" emerges, even if it is very far-fetched evidence, it will be enough to cause a storm.

   But Alex didn't want to do it unless it was absolutely necessary. Once the road has reached this point, the Holy See will be offended to death.

   In the future, when there is a war with the human race, it may be difficult to find such "professional lagging" teammates.

  Hudson, who is busy repairing the defense line, is naturally ignorant of the game between the major forces. Now they are still counting on the reinforcements from the Human Race Alliance to come and send troops together to rescue the main force of the kingdom.

  In recent days, he has received private promises from many great nobles. As long as the private army of each family can be rescued, everyone will be their own in the future.

  Even the representative of the Dalton family said: The southeastern province has a vast territory and fertile land. It can fully support two nobles, and everyone can seek common development.

   The only one who didn't respond was the Lochnard family. There is really no way to resolve this feud.

   It can be seen that everyone is in a hurry now. I am afraid that my main force will be damaged on the battlefield, and I will not be able to face the next big reshuffle.

  Hudson can fully understand their thoughts. The elites of each family are in the Northern Expeditionary Army. Once they lose it, it will mean that the family has no future.

  Even if it survives the next big reshuffle, it will decline rapidly because there are no successors.

  For a large family, compared with the loss of military strength, the loss of core talents is the most fatal.

"dragon!"

   "Dragon!"

   "Look, there are dragons in the sky!"

   "It's coming our way..."

  Looking in the direction of the sound, a red figure appeared in Hudson's sight.

  The legendary creature appeared in front of his eyes. Not only was he curious, but even Bear Stearns, who had been sleeping all day, rubbed his bear eyes and stared at the sky.

   Enjoying the exclamation of everyone, Maxim was very satisfied. According to the experience passed down by my irresponsible Dragon Mother, only when everyone is afraid can the robbery be completed with the highest efficiency.

  Yes, he came out this time to rob. Although he was invited by the orcs to show up to frighten the human race, it did not affect his robbery in the slightest.

  As a red dragon, how could he be a good baby?

  As a genius dragon in the Red Dragon Clan, if he doesn't make a famous name on the mainland, how dare he go back and brag to the younger brothers in Dragon Island!

   "Reptiles, quickly hand over all the gold coins and princesses, the Dragon King spares you!"

  Placing gold on his face, Maxim didn't feel blushing at all. Because he strayed into the Dragon Tomb when he was young, and ate a lot of the special product in the cemetery - Dragon Spirit Grass, so his body was extraordinarily large.

  If there were benefits and no harm, the Dragon Spirit Grass would have been devoured by the giant dragons long ago. After all, dragons also have vanity, and they all want to be bigger.

  As the price of the skyrocketing body size, part of the inherited memory is lost, so he can only rely on Mother Long to make up for him the day after tomorrow.

  It's hard to say how many private goods are mixed in here, and how much Dragon Mother's emotions are brought in.

  After all, the sudden emergence of a "cub" that is bigger than herself is also a great psychological pressure on the female dragon.

  In terms of size alone, Maxim is already close to the level of the Dragon King. As for the combat power, it is only a line stronger than ordinary adult dragons, and the gap is not very different.

  If it were a dragon king, he wouldn't be chased all over the world by two earth bears, almost losing the dragon's life.

  Brilliant appearance, can't fool monsters of the same level, but it is enough to scare humans.

  Hearing the word "Dragon King", combined with Maxim's huge size, instantly caused an uproar in the army, and even Hudson was taken aback.

  Human beings and giant dragons have completely different paths to practice. Generally speaking, adult dragons are equivalent to human sanctuaries. Most human sanctuaries are not opponents of giant dragons, and occasionally there are individual strong people who can counterattack, and the specific situation cannot be generalized.

  An ordinary human sanctuary would definitely take a detour when seeing a large army. Surrounded by the army, there were not one or two sanctuary powerhouses who drank hatred.

   It's different when it's replaced by the dragon clan. With their super strong defense power, ordinary swords have no lethality at all. Only the powerful magic bed crossbow or heavy magic crystal cannon can pose a threat to them.

  The biggest feature of the heavy firepower is that it is cumbersome, its flexibility is obviously hopeless, and the probability of hitting the dragon is obviously pitifully low.

  If the target is replaced by the Dragon King, the situation will be even more serious. Most of the magic crystal cannons can only tickle them.

  If you want to kill the Dragon King, you should rely on the strong to pile up! Large-scale attacks that disperse power are useless against these perverts.

  The only good thing is that the number of dragon kings is very rare, and most of them are old dragons, who are not as lively and active as they were when they were young.

   "Cut, a parallel dragon king can brag!"

  Bear Stearns' voice made Hudson recover from his shock. When the real Dragon King robbed him, he had no choice but to admit it; if it was a fake, then don't blame him for having other ideas.

  The giant dragon in front of him doesn't look very smart at first glance. Serious dragon, who would foolishly come to rob the army, especially the sentence "Hand over the gold coins and the princess".

  Gold coins, the nobles in the army brought a little bit, but the amount is definitely not much.

  Princess, that's even more nonsense. Who is full and still takes the princess with him when he is fighting?

   Could it be that a certain bard with an abnormal mind made up a new story to fool the "stupid dragon" in front of him?

   "I didn't hear that, hurry up and ask your commander to get out and answer, or else the Dragon King will start a killing spree!"

  Maxim's voice sounded again, Hudson rolled his eyes directly, but he didn't rush to reply, instead he turned his attention to Bear Stearns.

  The meaning is very obvious: It depends on whether your own bear can cover it?

  If you can cover it, then go out and answer it positively; if you can't cover it, then let the army besiege directly.

   No matter how low the hit rate is, as long as the number of attacks increases, there will always be a possibility of being hit. If you can't be a dragon slaying warrior, driving away the dragon is also a good choice.

  As a coach with rich combat experience, Hudson has long been used to one-on-one success.

   "Don't worry, we still have an army! If that guy doesn't show face, beat him up!"

  Looking at the eager Bear Stearns, Hudson's courage suddenly strengthened, but he still didn't foolishly run to the dragon, but used sound transmission magic from a distance:

   "Dear Mr. Dragon, I think you must have come to the wrong place. This is a military camp, and there are neither gold coins nor princesses.

   If you want to rob gold coins and princesses, I suggest you go to the next-door orc empire, where there are more royal families and more princesses.

   Come to think of it, you can see that there are no people in this area for hundreds of miles. It turns out that this place is very prosperous, but it's a pity that you came a step late, and the wealth has just been looted by the orc army. "

  As soon as the big trick came out, it was Maxim's turn to be confused.

   It sounds like there is nothing wrong with it. The Orc Empire does not pay attention to monogamy, and the number of princesses is indeed a bit large. You just robbed the territory of the human race, and you should have money.

  But just after receiving money from others, it would be too immoral to turn around and go back to looting others. If it gets out, it will hurt Longpin very much!

   "Humans, stop talking nonsense. I will indeed go to the Beastman Empire, but you still have to pay for the road, otherwise..."

   Before Maxim finished speaking, Hudson interrupted bluntly: "Mr. Dragon, please correct me that we don't plan to pass here, so there is no need to pay for the road.

  The most important thing is that we have no money, let alone a princess.

  Are you sure you want to take the risk of getting injured and fight with us, and leave with nothing in the end?

  If this is spread, everyone will think you are a stupid dragon, and all female dragons will avoid you in the future.

   I would like to ask, I can understand robbing gold coins, but why rob the princess? "

  After hearing Hudson's words, Maxim's red face became even more rosy.

   I had no experience in robbery for the first time, and made many mistakes in a row, which really embarrassed the dragon.

  It's all a good thing that Dragon Mother has done, saying that “robbing the princess” is the easiest way to become famous, and you can ask for a huge ransom.

   That's all, what's even worse is that he didn't tell him which places are suitable for robbery and which places are not.

  Perhaps in the mind of Dragon Mother, these are basic common sense, all dragons should be born to understand, forget to popularize it to Maxim.

   Just like running to grab territory with the Earth Bear before, this time Maxim jumped into the pit of robbing the army again. Fortunately, he didn't act recklessly, otherwise it would be another tragedy.

   "Human boy, besides the orcs, where else can we rob?

  Tell me quickly, the Dragon King will let you go today! "

  With that arrogant expression, Hudson wanted to get him down and give him a blast. Just considering the powerful fighting power of the giant dragon, this tempting idea was finally extinguished.

   It's easy to beat up a dragon, but it's a big trouble if you get entangled by a dragon afterwards. As a last resort, Hudson doesn't want to be a dragon slayer.

   "The northeast direction used to be my family's ancestral land. There should be some treasures. Why don't you go and have a look?"

   Hudson said without changing his face.

   No lying, the ancestral land of the Koslow family is indeed in the northeast.

   It's just that the owner has changed now, and it has become the territory of the Lochnard family. It just so happened that their base camp was also in the northeast.

   At this time, the giant dragon is fooling around, no matter how you look at it, it is suspected of intentional revenge. But since it is destined to be an enemy, then it is not polite.

   Didn't directly lead troops to take the Locknard family's lair, that's because Hudson followed the rules. The Lochnard family has no right to mention murder with a borrowed knife.

  The Koslow family was cheated to death by them. All the more than 300 direct family members in the ancestral land were killed, and the blood feud between the two sides was thus continued.
