Chapter 164: Gear Up
On the morning of August 10, 3013 in the Tang calendar, in the palace of Feni City, the capital of the Salad Empire, after a journey of more than ten days, the Prime Minister of the Salad Empire, Shurik, who rushed back to Fenni City, said to Emperor Herris with an excited face: "Your Majesty, the opportunity for our Salad Empire to take revenge has come, because the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire have withdrawn from the negotiations to limit the scale of the navy and army of various countries, which has caused strong dissatisfaction from Yingluopa, Noomi and other countries. They all expressed their willingness to form a coalition to declare war on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire! ”
When Emperor Herris heard this, he immediately stood up from his throne, "Prime Minister, are the Noomi Empire and the Yingluoba Empire really willing to declare war on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire?" ”
In order to keep it secret, Prime Minister Shurik did not use a telegram to inform Emperor Herris in advance of the preparation of the Seven Kingdoms to jointly declare war on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire.
Prime Minister Shurik immediately said with certainty: "Your Majesty, no matter what kind of contradictions exist between our Sharad Empire and the Noomi Empire and the Yingluoba Empire, our countries are white countries after all, while the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire are Tang countries, this negotiation to limit the scale of the navy and army of various countries is to safeguard the interests of our white countries, and now the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire are unwilling to abide by the rules formulated by the white countries, so our white countries must unite, Punish the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire. ”
Emperor Herris then slowly sat back on the throne, and then said with a slight upturn in the corners of his mouth: "I look at the Noomi Empire and the Yingluoba Empire, and I am more interested in the two big fat pieces of the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire. ”
Prime Minister Shurik hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire are indeed two big pieces of fat, but the skin on these two pieces of big fat is too thick, just relying on the strength of our Shalad Empire itself, we can no longer swallow these two pieces of big fat, it is better to unite with the Yingroba Empire, the Noomi Empire, the Monia Empire, the Jisk Empire, the Rilland Empire and the Orenza Empire, and divide these two big fat pieces, lest our Sharad Empire lose the interests of the Liuyun Empire, According to what that Su Yi did, if our Shalad Empire didn't strike first, he would send troops to the Liuyun Empire sooner or later. ”
Emperor Herris nodded slightly, "The Prime Minister is right, if the six countries of Yingluoba, Noomi, Monia, Gisk, Ruierland, and Orenza are willing to declare war on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire, then of course our Sharad Empire will not stay out of the matter, and this will be the best chance for our Sharad Empire to be humiliated." ”
Prime Minister Shurik said with a smile: "Your Majesty, rest assured, this time the Yingluoba Empire and the Noomi Empire, in order to stop the increasingly fierce military competition, will definitely send troops, otherwise only our countries will stop the military competition, but the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire continue to build warships and expand the scale of the army, then there is no point in stopping the military competition, as for the Jisk Empire and the Orenza Empire, they are even more anxious than our Sharad Empire to declare war on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire, The last remaining Monia Empire and the Ruierlan Empire will presumably follow the general trend and divide some interests among the two big fat pieces of the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire. ”
Emperor Herris said with a smile: "Our Shalad Empire is close to the Tang Empire, and the Purple Moon Empire will not mention it for the time being, this time our Sharad Empire must make a lot of money on the Tang Empire!" ”
In the eyes of Emperor Herris and Prime Minister Shurik, there would be no surprises if the seven great powers united to declare war on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire and achieve a final victory.
In fact, after the defeat of the Shalad Empire by the Su family army last time, many people in the Sharad Empire were not convinced, they thought that if it were not for the millions of elites of the Sharad Royal Army, who were pinned down in the border area adjacent to the Noomi Empire, it was not certain who would win and who would lose in the war!
Prime Minister Shurik then said: "Your Majesty, if you do not object, then the Minister will invite the representatives of the other six nations to Feni City to discuss the formation of an alliance." ”
Emperor Herris suddenly frowned at this time and said: "Once the Seven Kingdoms form an alliance to declare war on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire, then the army of the Tang Empire is likely to attack the Liuyun Empire, and our Salad Royal Army is in the territory of the Liuyun Empire, currently there are only six infantry divisions, in case the First Cloud Empire cannot hold it and is occupied by the Tang Empire, I am worried that even if the Seven Nations Alliance wins in the end, the other six countries will also ask our Sharad Empire for the benefits in the Liuyun Empire." ”
Prime Minister Shurik pondered for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, according to the plan, our Salad Royal Army will send four more infantry divisions to the territory of the Liuyun Empire, so that the total strength of our Sharad Royal Army in the Liuyun Empire will reach one million, and our Sharad Empire has given the Liuyun Empire royal family a low-interest loan of 1.5 billion Shayuan and a large number of weapons and equipment, and now the royal family of the Liuyun Empire is using this huge amount of money and a large number of weapons and equipment to carry out a large-scale military expansion." ”
After a pause, Prime Minister Shurik continued: "According to the intelligence department, the strength of the Royal Army of the Liuyun Empire has surged to more than eight million, and this number is still rising, and the various noble armies of the Liuyun Empire, using the low-interest loans and weapons and ammunition given by our Sharad Empire, have expanded in recent months, and the total strength has also reached more than six million, so that when the war breaks out, our Royal Army of Sharad will have a regular army in addition to one million in the territory of the Liuyun Empire, There will be at least more than fourteen million servant troops, and possibly even twenty million. ”
It turned out that while supporting the expansion of the royal family of the Liuyun Empire, the Sharad Empire also supported the six hereditary dukes and seven hereditary marquis in the Liuyun Empire in terms of funds and weapons and ammunition to help these six hereditary dukes and seven hereditary marquis expand their army, and the reason why the Sharad Empire did this was to balance the power of the royal family and the nobles of the Liuyun Empire while guarding against the Tang Empire, so that the Sharad Empire could get greater benefits from the territory of the Liuyun Empire.
Emperor Herris shook his head and said, "I really don't have much confidence in the army of the Liuyun Empire, can I send some more infantry divisions to the territory of the Liuyun Empire before the war breaks out?" ”
Prime Minister Shurik said: "Your Majesty, sending more infantry divisions to the territory of the Liuyun Empire must be carefully discussed with the War Department, after all, too many army units have entered the territory of the Liuyun Empire, and logistics will become a big problem, especially in terms of the supply of weapons and ammunition." ”
Emperor Herris sighed and said, "Prime Minister, try your best to protect the interests of the Liuyun Empire when discussing the alliance, I don't want other countries to also put their hands into the territory of the Liuyun Empire." ”
Prime Minister Shurik nodded and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the interests of the Liuyun Empire will definitely not be touched by other countries." ”
Emperor Herris then said: "At present, the Royal Army of Sharad has completed the reorganization of eighty infantry divisions, but since it is necessary to declare war on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire, then only eighty infantry divisions are not enough, I am ready to let the War Department expand another forty infantry divisions as soon as possible, and the firepower of each infantry division needs to be strengthened." ”
On the morning of August 22, 3013 in the Tang calendar, in the palace of Kay City, the capital of the Noomi Empire, Emperor Edgrew said to Prime Minister Julian: "Prime Minister, I have decided to participate in this seven-nation alliance, so the prime minister has to work hard and rush to Feni City, the capital of the Sharad Empire, as soon as possible to discuss the alliance and strive for more post-war benefits for our Noomi Empire." ”
Prime Minister Julian had just returned to Kay City yesterday morning, but when he heard that Emperor Edgrew had asked him to rush to Feni City, the capital of the Sharad Empire, Prime Minister Julian said aloud without hesitation: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will try his best to obtain more post-war benefits for our Noomi Empire." ”
Emperor Edgrew showed a murderous aura in his eyes at this time, "I was originally looking for an opportunity to teach the Tang Empire a good lesson, but I didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon, when discussing the alliance, don't forget the matter of the Hele Country, and we must let the other six countries also support the Re-independence of the Hele Country." ”
Yu Yuan, the former emperor of the Heller Kingdom, has brought the royal family members to the capital of the Noomi Empire, Kay City, and presented a large number of rare treasures brought out of the Heller Kingdom to the Emperor Edgru.
Originally, Emperor Edgrew was a very good friend with Yu Yuan, the former Emperor of Heller, and Yu Yuan gave Edgrew a large number of rare treasures, so Edgrew had promised Yu Yuan in person that he would help Yu Yuan restore the country.
Prime Minister Julian nodded and said: "Your Majesty rest assured, it should not be difficult for the country of Heller to regain independence, the minister took the liberty to ask, this time to declare war on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire, how much strength is Your Majesty prepared to use our Noomi Royal Army and Royal Navy?" The minister had a bottom in his heart, and fortunately, when discussing the alliance, he had the confidence to strive for more post-war benefits. ”
Emperor Edgrew immediately said: "This time to declare war on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire, our Noomi Empire will do everything we can, the main force of the Royal Army and the Royal Navy can all join this war, at present, the Royal Army has thirty-three standing infantry legions, if the war breaks out, I am ready to expand out another twenty, or even thirty infantry legions, organize tens of millions of troops, and go to the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire to grab territory!" ”
Prime Minister Julian said with some excitement: "Since Your Majesty's determination is so great, then the minister's trip to Feni City this time will definitely live up to Your Majesty's trust." ”
