We have been tossing and turning in the southern territory of the kingdom for a while, at least a week, and the kingdom has been somewhat slow to react, allowing a hostile force to run rampant in its territory for a week, which I think is unacceptable for any chronic sub-nation. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info But now it is a great irony that the Subic Kingdom, which has always reacted quickly and is known for its vigorous and resolute work, has done such a thing.

Of course, we are also very clear about why this problem arises, and in fact, as long as we understand the details, it is not difficult to figure out why the kingdom is like this. With this powerful means to integrate the government, eliminate the enemies who oppose him, suppress batch after batch of nobles, suppress batch after batch of uprisings, and regain state power and army, it is in a stage of rapid rise, and the Alliance of Free Cities will also be the last step in his unification plan, and it will also be his last battle to reach the top, and Subic's complete reunification will also be completed in his hands.

However, our presence changed all of the young king's plans, and our rapid rise entailed a battle with the kingdom, which lost its victory in this crucial battle, as well as the honor and prestige that Salondron had so hard built up for his troops. The populace began to be in an uproar, the nobles who opposed him began to make trouble, and even the ministers who supported Salondron were divided into two factions, and the main battle party scoffed at Archduke Orlik's words, demanding that all troops be gathered and fought again, and that the lands in the south of the kingdom must be kept even if they cannot be completely defeated. The Lord and the faction took out a list of the finances that had been seriously overdrawn and the battle losses of the kingdom's army, saying that the results of the war with the rebels of the Free City Alliance, as well as the Orientals and their troops seriously exceeded the initial estimate, the kingdom had suffered a lot of losses, and it was even more wasteful to continue to fight them, and the other party was not able to eat the kingdom's territory, so it was not impossible to negotiate, relying on the deterrent power of the remaining kingdom troops, so it was not impossible for them to retreat.

And just when the two sides were arguing fiercely, a nobleman in the western part of the kingdom listened to the rumor that the kingdom's army had been wiped out. A rebellion against the king was launched! Of course, this level of rebellion was easily resolved, but it also reminded the king and his staff that there was a rift within the kingdom, and that the military forces that maintained the unity of the kingdom had weakened, and the king's authority had been greatly reduced, and their rule had been challenged.

So after a lot of messy events, Salondron also had to admit that the kingdom could no longer pay a greater price for a small alliance in the south, so he gave the task to Archduke Ollick, asking him to negotiate with the other party without violating the interests of the kingdom.

This is easier said than done, now the kingdom's advantages are much less than before, and a large amount of land in the south is actually in a state of actual occupation by the other party, and now there are not many bargaining chips in the negotiations, and the things negotiated are also the land and property of the kingdom, and do not involve the interests of the kingdom? That's simply not possible! So for Archduke Ollick, although His Majesty has set the standard, Archduke Ollick also has his own plan, as long as the other side can make concessions to stop this damn war and withdraw the army from the heart of the kingdom, he can be satisfied and agree to negotiate.

Soon we received an invitation to negotiate from the Kingdom, and it was privately appointed by the King, which represented a compromise on our part from the Kingdom. At the same time, we also gathered some of the southern nobles in my sister's name, because it is said that they are still willing to support my sister and elect her king. We have been in contact with them in private, and we have also sent Mei Long to negotiate with them, and even revealed the secret that we have invited the War Saint (the kingdom knows about the defeat and knows that we have a Sky Battle Master, but the common people do not know that we have a War Saint, which is a secret of the kingdom. It's just to let them know what we're capable of and see how they're doing. If these people are really willing to support us and be loyal to my sister (and of course loyal to me), then I can even refuse the invitation of the kingdom, and rely on their help and support to tear off the entire southern Subic and support Averia to build another Subic kingdom, anyway, the kingdom does not have enough military strength to deal with us now, as my sister's suitor, the status and power of the future queen's lover will certainly not be lower than now, not to mention that the military power is still in our hands.

However, after Mei Long's return, he had a terrible evaluation of these arrogant old-fashioned ones, and we were disappointed.

"These people are so arrogant that I don't want to spend a moment with them, these old nobles who think of themselves gentlemen only care about their own interests, they don't care about us at all, we get nothing by cooperating with them, and we have to put up with their unreasonableness, I now understand why they can't pose a real threat to Salondron, because they can't even do the least of cooperation. I don't believe that the old aristocrats who have lived for so long will be like this, but unfortunately it is. ”

We have great expectations for the old nobles who are not subject to the control of these kingdoms, but they have failed to live up to our expectations, and have not agreed with us to cooperate, and still blindly insist on their own opinions and support the princess, but supporting the princess is only to oppose the current king, so we have not reached any agreement on reaching an alliance of interests. And I also think that with these guys, even if I take the entire southern part of the kingdom, it will be very unstable, not only to deal with the kingdom's army, but also to clean them up, I don't have the leisure to do so.

So after a short discussion, we finally chose to negotiate with the kingdom. The kingdom asked us to go to Lordain for negotiations, and suggested that I personally lead the team. Of course, I will not go there myself, nor will I send someone to Lordan, which is where the army of forty or fifty thousand kingdoms is now stationed, and the danger index is very high. So after a brief negotiation, we finally came to an agreement to negotiate in a small town of the kingdom that is still under the control of the kingdom, but which is often harassed by us, and where our negotiators and the kingdom's negotiators will discuss the territorial and sovereignty issues of both sides.

The date and place of the negotiations were easily set, and the people who were negotiating were not difficult to choose, and our people set off as soon as they had calculated the agenda, vowing to fight for greater interests for us at the negotiating table. After all, now that we're in the driver's seat, we now have the advantages, and since that's the case, we need to take advantage of them.
