There was not a single issue that had been thought of by the three people in the room, and they had failed to grasp what the United Kingdom really needed to address right now

What they need to resolve now is not internal contradictions, but internal contradictions provoked by Hassan, and Hassan is the real problem, and it is precisely because of Hassan's actions that the internal contradictions in the United Kingdom have intensified to such an extent.

They can indeed transfer internal contradictions to the outside through a limited war that they can control, but Hassan's problem cannot be solved in this way, they cannot control when and where the war will occur, and they cannot prevent Hassan from provoking a war.

War is such a thing, sometimes because of some unexpected small factors, it will become violent, conflicts between people, wars between countries, is never such a simple thing.

What's more, now the Baltic Empire is looking for a key point that can provoke a conflict between the two countries, and Siegmund proposed that when the Baltic Empire was looking for weapons, he personally handed it a sharp knife, and also pointed out the location of the knife.

The news of the fighting going on in the United Kingdom could not be concealed from Hassan, and the next day the information about it had been sent to Alice and Semiramis, who looked at each other in surprise

They were not very convinced of the accuracy of this information, and suspected that Hassan's information was wrong, or that the United Kingdom had discovered Hassan's movements and was using methods to lure the snake out of the hole to lure Hassan out of the hole, and then solve it.

But after verifying the truth of the news many times, Alice has to admit that the method that Goam and Sigourney came up with is really fantastic, which can at least cut the time of the plan in half, and make their strategy in Scandinavia easier.

"Can't be in a hurry, can't be in a hurry, can't be in a hurry. ”

Semiramis circled the room with her hands behind her back, muttering incessantly, forcing herself to calm down and see more objectively what the United Kingdom intended to do.

"Just as he was about to go to bed, someone handed him a pillow, and it seemed that fate had played an unfunny joke on Gohm. ”

Alice smiled and shook her head, but she reminded anyway.

"Although the situation is moving in our favour, it is important to note that the United Kingdom and Barusenger have successfully formed a coalition of forces, and one winter and spring is enough time for Siegmund to complete the integration of the army. ”

"In this regard, Zigmund is still capable. ”

Semiramis said disapprerovingly.

"It doesn't matter, no matter how integrated they are, castles made of sand can't stop the waves from moving forward, the system of the United Kingdom determines that their army can't cope with the brutal war, and the longer it goes, the lower the morale of the army will be. ”

"Don't underestimate him, Siegmund is indeed a reckless man, but as a general, he is excellent, and in that defensive battle of Upplan before, even in such a harsh environment, he was still able to stop the footsteps of the Attila Empire. ”

"If it weren't for Siegel holding him back, maybe he would have been able to hold out until spring with the help of Upplan's environment, and in any case he had our supplies in terms of logistics, and there was no pressure on the supplies. ”

Semiramis said: "That's because they're too weak. ”

"They're not weak at all, it's just that the Attila Empire is too strong. ”

Alice shook her head, she had really faced Attila's army, and knew how difficult that kind of army was that kind of army that was not afraid of death, and death did not stop the warriors from advancing, but only made them even more crazy.

It is an army that will do whatever it takes to defeat the enemy, whether it is to pollute the land, or to destroy the city, or to kill the soldiers for no reason, and to waste the lives of soldiers for no reason.

"Under the same conditions, the army of Attila fought against us, and our victory rate was only sixty percent, and it was not foolproof, and their warriors, their army, seemed to be out of order, but this kind of chaos was the most practical. ”

"Do you know what the best tactics of the Attila army are? crowd tactics, exchanging the lives of their soldiers for victory in the war, in their tactics, the soldiers are just simple consumables, consumables discarded at will in order to live their lives, and they are not worth paying too much attention to. ”

The warriors of the Attila Empire are very cheap, they don't even need to train, take up their weapons, put on their armor, and let the shaman use [bloodthirsty thaumaturgy], rush forward with their eyes closed, kill all enemies in their way, or die in the way of the charge.

Alice concluded.

"How is it possible, our army is already the strongest in the entire north in terms of organization, tactics, equipment, will, etc., even in the south of those countries that believe in gods and worship heroes, there is still a gap between their army and ours. ”

Semiramis's eyes widened, she was amazed at Alice's affection for the Attila Empire, and she couldn't understand why her own army couldn't win against the Attila Empire's army.

"It's not that we're not strong, it's just that the army of the Attila Empire is also strong. ”

Alice walked up to Semiramis, took her hand, patted her gently, and comforted her not to get too excited.

"Don't worry, we are ready, we will be better than them. ”

"The Attila Empire, they have not done nothing in Scandinavia all these years, they are crazy to replenish the population consumed by the previous battles, buy from merchants, go to the mountains and dense forests to replenish slaves, through this method they have recovered in just a few years. ”

In such a world, at such a stage of civilization, population is everything.

With a sufficient population, the Attila Empire was indeed a formidable force, especially when combined with the crude and simple crowd tactics they had always been accustomed to, allowing them to always have the upper hand in the face of the United Kingdom.

Semiramis asked curiously, "Haven't they been at war with the giants farther north and the United Kingdom all these years, and shouldn't their population be decreasing while the fighting has been going on like this?"

Alice shook her head: "Semiramis, don't always pay attention to the data on paper, many things can't be reflected by data alone, the data on paper is always good-looking, but the real situation is never so good." ”

"It is true that the Attila Empire has always been at war with the giants of the north and with the United Kingdom of the south, but their battles have only been small in conflict, and most of them have been victorious, with few casualties. ”

"In addition, they were able to obtain captives in the war with the United Kingdom, and those captives were taken as slaves and turned into the population of the Attila Empire, and the next generation they gave birth to was no different from the ordinary Attella Empire. ”

"On the other hand, the United Kingdom, because they hated the invasion of the Attila Empire, and hated that these invaders had started a war, they would kill every enemy, whether they chose to surrender or not. ”

Semiramis couldn't say anything to refute, if it was the Attila Empire, victory in the face of the giants of the north and the United Kingdom of the south was indeed a matter of course, and they grew stronger little by little in such a victory.

Alice saw the flash of shame in Semiramis, she gently squeezed her palm, and comforted her in a smooth and soft voice: "Our strategy has never been problematic, if there is no United Kingdom, we now need to face a powerful Attila Empire that has completed the conquest of Scandinavia." ”

"The Attila Empire is now much weaker than expected, and this weakness will continue, and they will not be able to obtain any food, weapons, warm clothing, magical materials, and slaves from the outside. ”

"The cold of winter and the beast tide of spring will continue to weaken the Attila Empire, and at the same time, as long as a failure, like the defeat that Gom gave them, will make the contradictions within the Attila Empire completely erupt. ”

Like a spring, the harder you squeeze it, the stronger the energy bursts out later.

Alice's comfort made Semiramis's face soothe slightly.

The Sea Clan was personally led by Semiramis, so the order to blockade Scandinavia was also given by her personally, and from the current situation, the Sea Clan has completed the task she gave her very well.

All of Scandinavia's coastline is under surveillance, 24 hours a day, attacking any ships that launch, and if the enemy passes through the sky, the Sea Clan will contact the nearby dragons and let them solve the problems in the sky.

"Wars, especially wars between nations like this, will be a long process, culminating in a final decisive battle at a critical time and place. ”

However, it should be noted that before the final battle, in fact, the victory or defeat of both sides of the battle has been almost decided, and the so-called accidents or something are just hidden inevitability. ”

There are gods in this world, there is a long river of fate, there are prophecies, as if everything has been decided, and the ending has been decided from the beginning, so even the gods will be afraid because of the prophecy.

But Alice, as an outsider to this world, does not believe in the fixity of fate, she does not believe in the immutability of fate, and believes that even prophecies have the possibility of change, because fate cannot explain what happened to her.

"Hassan will infiltrate the United Kingdom's army, and they will attack the Attila Empire when the time is right. ”

The army of the Attila Empire, the warriors in it are all fanatics, they have a hard time understanding and will not try to understand the tacit understanding between Gaum and Attila, if the enemy attacks, they will not hesitate to counterattack, and kill all the enemies left.

Then the United Kingdom will retaliate and counterattack, which is something that even Gohm cannot stop, and if the war machine turns on the switch, then it is not something that one or two people can stop.

Not Gohm, not Sigourney and Siegmund

"But if Zigmund had Zygmund as commander-in-chief, they could try to keep the scale of the war within a certain range. ”

Alice found the tricky part, they could indeed make the war break out through Hassan, but they had no way to influence the way the armies fought, no way to make the war bigger.

Hassan would not be able to disobey the commander's orders in the open, as that would expose himself to the eyes of the enemy, and would make it more difficult to carry out the plan later.

"That was after that, things were developing all the time, we couldn't know exactly what was going on in the next second, and all we could do was to keep the situation under our control as much as possible. ”

Alice shook her head, she really wanted to put everything into the plan, but it was obviously unrealistic, and the unexpected happened every moment, and it was unavoidable.

"What kind of situation does Beihai have now?"

Alice changed the subject.

"Control is basically complete, but sporadic resistance continues. ”

"They won't be able to resist for long. ”

After the Baltic Empire changed its ways and methods, it was difficult for the Sea Tribes who remained in the North Sea to resist to continue to persevere, they not only had to deal with the harsh environment of scarce food, not only did they need to face the pursuit of the Baltic Sea Tribes, they also needed to deal with every companion around them.

Because those companions are likely to choose to betray them for survival, as long as they are willing to surrender and join the Baltic Empire, they can get food, shelter, and a stable environment.

After joining the Baltic Empire, those sea tribes will soon forget their former hatred, because the environment in the sea is much harsher than that on land, and it is rare to unite with the enemy for survival and the continuation of the race.

"After conquering the North Sea, the inventory of goods in the Empire's warehouses began to decrease. ”

Semiramis lamented that a large amount of food, weapons, and daily necessities were piled up in warehouses due to the overcapacity of the empire, and now by occupying the North Sea, the sale of these goods is being promoted.

With the sale of goods, all the factories in the empire began to run at full capacity, and now it is the winter when farm work is idle, and a large number of idle laborers have entered the factories, working overtime as workers to create wealth.

At the same time, merchants belonging to the empire began to appear in the lands of the Northland and Celts, and they began to wave their money to buy raw materials from various tribes and kingdoms, whether it was ordinary stones and wood, or pearls and gems.
