Serdan nodded to the dwarven king beside him and explained, "This is Nader, Your Majesty of the Lonely Mountain. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info he has already arranged the affairs of the coalition. Take your legion with me into the war zone, and the rest will naturally have the corresponding dwarven generals to connect with your generals. ”

Despite his respect and gratitude for Serdan, and his desire to confront the elvenst, who had built and gifted the "Ixing" with his own hands, Varandil was reluctant to accept the coalition plan. As a human emperor with zero actual combat experience, he couldn't guess the mystery of the alliance's subordinates this time, but he knew that as a latecomer, the coalition would make him lose the initiative.

The real goal was not Mordor's decision to tactfully avoid the coalition invitation. Of course, he did not deny that Mordor had already made Mordor his territory. The reason why he was unwilling to conquer it in one fell swoop through the method of the coalition army was because he completely abandoned the task of conquering Mordor to the two kings of the woodland and the lonely mountain.

Anyway, these two kings have been persevering for more than two years in order to conquer Mordor, so naturally they can hold on until I settle the matter of Gondor first. Regardless of whether Mordor can be conquered after Gondor's recovery, I will give the woodland and the lonely mountain a certain amount of gratitude as the receiver should be. Gondor was sure to be satisfied with the benefits of three years. As for the fact that the coalition forces have completely changed the operational objectives of the army, let it be dispensed.

"It's a great honor to accompany King Serdan into the war zone, and I have a lot to ask you about. Valandil paused, then said in embarrassment: "It's a pity that I am the only one who can enter the war zone to accompany you." Micheng is ready to welcome the royal master of the same clan. The people have come from afar, Micheng has made arrangements again, and the people are also waiting to see the demeanor of the human king. I really couldn't bear to disappoint Micheng and the people, and gave the order that all the troops should enter the war zone and not enter Micheng. ”

Seeing that this reply made Serdan laugh and silent, Valandil quickly raised his head and summoned Merandil. "Tell King Sedan, what's going on in Micheng. What preparations were made for us? ”

Valandil did not believe that Merandil would dare to disobey his orders. As early as the day of the dispatch of Arnol, the Emperor sent a letter to King Gondor, asking Micheng to make arrangements to meet the army. The smooth recapture of Arnol's military power and Merandiel's years of subservience made the young emperor think that everything was under control. Even if it was King Sedan's invitation to himself, he would be politely rejected under the heavy welcome behavior of Mi Cheng.

At first, things were normal. Merandil confessed, leading to an old man in a battle helmet who was gasping for air from time to time.

"This is the current supreme general of Gondor, and he is in charge of arranging the quartermaster of Arnol's legion in the city of Rice. It is he who states it most accurately. King Gondor turned around again and helped an older man in plain clothes out. "This is the current political official of Gondor, and he arranges for the reception of the people. ”

The old man, who was so old that he was trembling a little even when he was standing, was in charge of important state affairs, and this abnormal situation naturally attracted the attention of all the kings. Unlike Serdan, who thought silently, Varandil was very proud.

Or are the officials in their prime seeing the situation clearly and knowing that I am the ultimate holder of Gondor's real power, so they are unwilling to commit to Merandil so as not to arouse my suspicion? Otherwise, how could Melendiel appoint an old man who has become a burden even a battle helmet as the supreme general?

What is the correct answer, the emperor feels that there is no need to know. For he already believed that Gondor, led by an aging general with no combat power, had no military counter-attack. The secretly proud human emperor showed a humble posture that was rarely shown in front of people, and even supported an old man wearing a battle helmet. But his friendliness did not lead to satisfactory results.

"Gondor didn't make any quartermaster arrangements for your legion. Quietly getting rid of the support of the human emperor, the old man who stood trembling and towering said without fear: "The war zone is closest to Mordor, and everything is ready in terms of military quartermasters. Since the Emperor's soldiers came for Mordor, they certainly shouldn't have gone far to enter Gondor. The war zone has good facilities, and human soldiers can get a better rest than Gondor. ”

Without giving the emperor a chance to speak out at the beginning of his face, the old man in charge of government affairs followed closely and said, "Micheng is not ready to meet the king of Arnor - why should the army that came for Mordor disturb the people before the battle is achieved?"

Being directly confronted by officials in front of other leaders is unbearable for a king, let alone an emperor?

"Are you fearless because you're about to hug Vera, or is someone deliberately asking you to do this?" The sneering young man Huang Huang pointed to something, and deliberately looked at Merandiel, who didn't dare to speak out for the time being, and slightly tilted his head to the accompanying officials behind him and asked, "What is the punishment for openly disobeying the emperor's orders?"

"Guilt deserves to be punished. It involves the descendants of military affairs. ”

Despite his reluctance, the sentencing officer had to recite the law in a raised voice with the rigor he deserved. Unexpectedly, although he asked about the punishment for disobeying the emperor's order, the emperor did not mean to punish the two old men who violated the order. The anger on his face turned into a meaningful smile.

Varendil believed that the incident was at Merandil's behest. As a king who was about to be stripped of all power and glory, Valandil could understand Merandiel's desire to dismount herself. When he learned a few months ago that the officials of Gondor had refused to hand over their responsibilities to the officials of Arnoor, the Emperor thought so. He also came with 20,000 troops to cope with what he saw as a "senseless struggle".

At that time, the officials of Gondor who refused to surrender their responsibilities claimed that what they did was their own volition, and that they had nothing to do with the King of Gondor. This left the Emperor with no way to convict King Gondor who was not involved. The current situation is a very good opportunity for Valandier. As long as the two old officials revealed the slightest hint of having something to do with Merandiel, they could charge the latter with "openly rebelling against the imperial decree" and send the Gondor inclined Merandil to prison under a legal and reasonable pretext. Once imprisoned, it is not difficult for him to be charged with "attempted rebellion".

So what I'm going to do now is, induce two old officials?

"It's so heavy that even the descendants have to sit together?" Deliberately making a gesture of regret, Valandil shook his head and said: "Those who have first ascended the throne should have mercy, how can I bear to let the descendants of the two old men also be punished? Just tell me who is behind the scenes who instructed you to disobey the imperial decree, and your descendants will be forgiven by the human emperor." ”
