"Evil undead, absolutely unable to defeat the mighty Lion Empire!"

"The Lion Empire is invincible, why ask for peace!"

"Your Majesty, you must not sue for peace! The soldiers of the Empire are willing to die on the battlefield and will not sue for peace with the evil undead! ”

The hall master's words won everyone's approval, and the ministers responded one after another, filled with anger.

Sue for peace?

When did the Lion Empire, which once swept across the Eske continent, fall to such a point!

Beaten by the undead of a city and begging for peace?

It's a shame!

Even His Majesty the King was silent, hesitating whether to accede to the hall master's request to go to war.

Although the intention of the hall lord is obvious, he wants to take this opportunity to seize a part of the imperial military power, but His Majesty the King really does not want to sue for peace.

The king of the Lion Empire is a king with a lot of ideas and patterns, and since he is unwilling to submit to the leadership of the divine right like his fathers, he naturally does not want to sue for peace with the undead enemies.

It was so humiliating that the king's pride did not allow him to do so.

Everyone has robbed the northern border, and we don't have no soldiers to continue the war, why are we asking for peace?

In the main hall of the palace, the ministers were excited, clamoring to send troops!

"Teacher, do you have to ask for a sum of your opinion?"

His Majesty did not give up, and glanced at the old dean again.

Could it be that the teacher is really old and begins to fear and fear the enemy?

"Of course!"

The old dean nodded decisively: "Why don't you make peace?" ”

"Why ask for and!"

The hall master immediately spoke, aggressive: "Our Lion Empire has eight million powerful soldiers!" And a million Knights of the Thorn Flowers! My Temple of Light also has a million Templars and a large number of Clerical Warriors! ”

"These people can sacrifice their lives for the empire at any time, and they are never afraid of sacrifice!"

The hall lord sneered and said, "Could it be that His Excellency the Dean wants to ask for peace, but he is doubting the loyalty and combat effectiveness of these warriors?" ”

Eight million male soldiers, two million knights, most of them are fighting warriors, this battle is indeed very strong.

At least at this stage, players can't match it.

"No, I never doubted the warriors of the Empire."

The old dean shook his head and said lightly, "I just want to remind you that if you send eight million imperial legions and knights to the distant northern city, how much food and gold will be consumed?" ”

"This ......"

His Majesty the King groaned slightly, silently calculated in his heart, and then said in a deep voice: "Not enough, the Lion Empire has already experienced a famine that affected the whole country last year, and we don't have so much food and gold coins to send so many legions. ”

Although there are many soldiers in the Lion Empire now, most of them are in various fortified cities and cannot leave, because there is not enough logistics to allocate troops.

It's useless for you to have a lot of soldiers, you need food and grass to fight!

Especially in long-distance wars, soldiers always have to eat and drink, right? Without enough food, grass and war materials, no matter how many soldiers there are, it will be difficult to move an inch.

The ministers were silent, but the hall lord still asserted his decision: "Your Majesty, according to the battle report from Alex, although they were defeated, the undead adopted sneak attack tactics and did not dare to fight the Imperial Legion head-on!" ”

"This shows that there are not many undead in the northern city, we only need to send a million troops, and we can definitely recapture the northern city!"

The intention of the hall master is too obvious, you can occupy as much military power as you can, isn't a million imperial soldiers fragrant?

His Majesty was silent and looked at the old dean.

The subtext of His Majesty's Majesty was: "Teacher, what do you do now?" If I can't convince the hall master, I can only give him the military power. ”

"Ignorance!"

The old dean scolded, and scolded the hall master in public, so angry that the hall master's face was gloomy: "Don't a million soldiers want to eat?" This is still a huge military burden for the Lion Empire! ”

"Even if we win the undead, how much material will we lose? What if other empires take advantage of the opportunity to go to war at this time? ”

"Yes."

His Majesty the King nodded and said lightly: "The northern border must be recaptured, but it is also necessary to prevent other empires from taking the opportunity to invade the Lion Empire." ”

"Do you just leave the north alone?"

Before the hall master's words were finished, the old dean spoke again: "Your Excellency the hall master is loyal to the country, why don't you let the Temple of Light send troops?" You said that the Temple of Light has a million Knights Templar. ”

"That's right, a million knights are enough to attack the cities of the North."

The old dean looked at the Lord of the Hall of Light with a smile, the Hall Master was stunned for a moment, and said with a gloomy face: "The losses of the cavalry attacking the city will be greater, and they have to protect the safety of the Temple." ”

The king began to frown.

The Temple of Light is in the City of Thorn Flowers, and you still need to worry about the safety of the Temple?

The hall master's intentions are self-evident, he is guarding against the Academy of Magic, and even His Majesty the King, or rather...... The hall lord gathered these armies in the City of Thorn Flowers, and he wanted to have bad intentions!

The king was silent, no one knew what he was thinking.

"Since Your Excellency the hall master is unwilling, then you can only ask for peace."

The old dean shrugged his shoulders and continued, "After all, none of us know how many undead there are in the northern city, and whether there will be more undead during this time. ”

"Unless we go all out, we may all risk defeat."

"I suggest sending an emissary to the northern city to sue for peace, and by the way, to find out the number of undead in the northern city."

The old dean said with a smile: "When the envoy returns, we have obtained the intelligence news of the northern city, and then arrange an appropriate number of troops to go out, we can easily recapture the northern border." ”

"That's a good idea."

His Majesty the King nodded and said lightly: "I have decided to adopt the teacher's advice and ask for peace!" ”

The hall lord was anxious: "Your Majesty! ”

The old dean glanced at the hall master: "If the hall master is unwilling to sue for peace, you can send the temple knights to attack the northern realm and recapture the northern city for the lion empire." ”

The hall master was silent, he would not let his soldiers fight the north if he was killed.

After all, the undead are not stupid, and even if the army that goes to attack the north wins, there will definitely be losses.

"Well, since everyone has no opinion."

His Majesty glanced at the crowd and asked, "Who can be the messenger of peace?" ”

......

"It's wonderful!"

Xu Xiaofan looked at the picture from the godhead system, and was amazed, feeling as wonderful as watching a palace fighting blockbuster.

It seems that the lion empire is at odds within.

Primarily, the Lion Empire is currently divided into two factions, one is the theocratic faction headed by the Temple of Light, and the other is the imperial faction headed by His Majesty the King.

However, at present, the empire is weak, and the entire faction can only be handled by the Thorn Flower Magic Academy, and no one else can see it.

Regardless of the era and region, the country's major cities are always the center of political strife.

In the City of Thorn Flowers, the struggle for divine power and imperial power has become overwhelming.

The king of the Lion Empire obviously wanted to attack the north, but in order to suppress the palace master, he retreated and adopted the old dean's peace opinion.

It's just that Xu Xiaofan has always been unable to figure it out, why did the old dean ask for peace with the northern city?

"Is it to protect Arya and the Mage of the Storm?"

Xu Xiaofan held his chin and thought carefully: "It doesn't make sense, why does this old dean protect a magic apprentice so carefully, it's not very reasonable!" ”

"Could it be that Arya is the daughter of the old dean?"

Xu Xiaofan felt that his guess was a little crazy, if this was the case, then the private lives of the high-level leaders of the Eske Continent would be too chaotic!

The old dean was unmarried and pregnant, had a daughter, and couldn't be exposed, so he hid in his magic academy as an ordinary magic apprentice?

"This speculation, let's put it aside for the time being, and go back and focus on supervising the old dean and Alya."

Xu Xiaofan pondered: "The most important thing now is the next step for the Lion Empire. ”

"The good news is that the Lion Empire has not decided to send troops for the time being, there is a lack of food and grass, and it will definitely not continue to attack the northern cities on a large scale this winter, which will give players a lot of breathing and development."

"It's just that what should be done with the words of this peace messenger......

Xu Xiaofan didn't think of a good way for a while, everyone came to ask for peace, and it was clear that they were here to find out the intelligence news of the northern city.

"It's useless for me to ponder here alone, it's better to tell the players to see how my 300,000 traversers decide!"

Xu Xiaofan has decided to send a new task to the players!
