Chapter Seventy-Seven: Choose One of the Two
"—that's it." Heliga ended his statement, and halfway through his statement, his father seemed to be thinking seriously about the possibilities.
The plan was customized by Heiliga and Oliebart after consultation. First, if the aristocracy and the reformers were to the point where they had to resort to force to solve the problem, then naturally the members of the royal family would become their respective rivals.
To be precise, the aristocratic faction should be on the side that cares more about this. The reason is simple: the emperor himself trusted Prime Minister Osborne so much that he lived in seclusion after the prime minister came to power publicly about ten years ago, and for many years he did not appear in public, and the prime minister brought another member of the imperial family to do the work for him—as for the local nobles, there was almost no chance of meeting the emperor except for some important festivals.
But in the area of Erebonia, the imperial power is still a force with a strong presence, at least for the time being, after all, the legitimacy of the current power of the empire comes from the "Lionheart Emperor" Dreikels. Therefore, no matter how the situation goes, at least in the war, no matter which side it is, it will not show any disrespect to the royal family.
But what if the royal family directly became unreliable in the war?
In that case, the aristocracy would adopt a semi-coercive policy to "protect" them—to put it bluntly, a disguised captivity. If things get to that point, there is no need to worry too much about the real danger, but there is no doubt that the prestige of the royal family will be weakened. From this point of view, if Hyliga can help Olibat's side, arrange part of the royal family in the war, and settle the merits afterwards, it will undoubtedly be an important contribution.
Of course, in this process, there may be obstruction from both the aristocratic or the reformers; Or rather, their respective promoters behind the scenes—in this case, Helliga needs more intelligence and resources to support it; And all his previous actions were to seek such support as a foreshadowing.
Neutrality in a war requires a strong military force - that being said, Daxis, who is located on the borders of the Empire, is unlikely to be under too much pressure. However, Heliga still managed to win what seems to be quite extravagant combat power at present: a transcendent warrior no less than the "Sword Maker of Light", who is currently in Crossbell, the "Sword Emperor" Reinhardt; The former hunter who is equivalent to the top Olympic player, and now the fugitive of Cross Bell, who owes Helliga favors for various things and is looking for a chance to repay the "Killing Bear" Garcia Rossi; The guerrilla association, which once had friendly relations and fate with Liber and put the safety of civilians first and was regarded as a thorn in the side of the prime minister; and an inconspicuous experience, but now a priceless partner - Martha, who has a team that is not weak in combat - plus Heliga's own inheritor of the power of the extremely combat-capable "Dragonborn", although there is no guarantee that it will pose a huge threat to the situation of the civil war, but
As for the intelligence side - Richard, who had failed in Liber's coup d'état and was released to return to his old business after providing some evidence of his own, has now set up an intelligence company based on Liber's former intelligence department - there is no doubt that he does not need to worry about it in the sense of business. In addition, Rei, a super hacker who used to be the "executor" of the association, can also provide a lot of help for herself. Although she may be subtle in her position and attitude as she has now accepted political asylum from Liber, she can still provide some leverage if necessary – if not, she can even consider bypassing Liber himself. Finally, Hyliga has been deliberately avoiding the promise of the Church of the Seven Dawns, as represented by Ain Sernat: for the simple reason that the so-called "favor" between them is something that Nerevain has fought for himself; It is not necessary to use it until it is absolutely necessary; Second, the Church seems to be on the sidelines for everything that is happening across the continent so far, and if this is the Church's own strategy, then Heliga may have to pay a lot of extra to pull them out to help.
Finally, in terms of funding, I have to say that "Black Moon" is really good at manipulating business. After settling the turmoil in the domestic base camp and Crossbell's competitors respectively, with the help of the market instability caused by the turmoil in the country, "Black Moon" quickly amassed an astonishing wealth in a way that was almost difficult to make a fortune in the country, and even the assets in Hailiga's hands that could be regarded as a gift for nothing also rose with the tide. In this regard, Hailiga himself is happy to see it: Anyway, I am an imperial, and there is no need to worry about the life or death of your republic.
The money would be the main resource for Heliga to find a way to survive the civil war, whether it was to pay the necessary wages for labor or to procure all sorts of necessities. However, Heliga himself is not very conceptual about these things, and the money seems amazing, but in reality it may not be able to last long - which is why he has to ask his father to help make the decision.
“…… The plan itself should be viable. But Helriga. Werner thought carefully for a while before he slowly said, "Judging from the current situation, we can't afford to have too much appetite. ”
“…… What do you mean? ”
"Royalty...... Does it refer to His Majesty the Emperor's entire family? Or some of the members? We have to make trade-offs. "Seriously, I don't think His Majesty the Emperor himself is unprepared in this case...... His Royal Highness Olibat, on the other hand, already has his own independent position, and does not need this special protection - to put it bluntly, our target is only two relatively young royalty. ”
"yes...... That's what I thought, too. Heliga nodded, "But depending on what you mean, it's also a bit dangerous?" ”
"Hmm...... If it were either His Highness Elfin or His Highness Cedric, the plan would have a chance of success. But if it's two people together, there are too many variables – it's hard to juggle them. ”
“…… If you have to choose, it can only be Her Highness Elphen. Heliga did not hesitate to say this, because he knew that his father's judgment was always accurate.
"Haha......" To Helica's surprise, her father, who had always been serious, couldn't help but laugh, "I know...... You have to be careful. That's why you exposed your presence in the events in the imperial capital, right? ”
"This ......" knows the truth of his son Mo Ruo's father, and Hailiga understands it completely now.
