Chapter 182: The Empress's Decision

In the letter, the dwarves wrote to each other: "My friend, I'm sorry I can only see the world... Kind of fairly common technology on the continent to exchange with you. I know very well the value of this magical technology from the Age of Wonders that you have, and it is because of this that even if we dwarves have never cared much about magic, we are so tempted! And after a series of wars, I also realized that the time had come for my people to change their conservative attitudes. But the only two technologies we can use now are the Hill Dwarves, and in order to make this technology exchange more fair, I am willing to make this promise: as long as the Hill Dwarves do not perish in this war, then we will become your most loyal allies, and provide you with military support when necessary! ”

After reading the letter in his hand, Jian Chen decided not to hesitate to agree to the exchange request of the dwarf king Hesfa.

Although the manufacturing technology of ballista and catapult is not worth mentioning in the eyes of other forces or other countries, for the current Chen Jian, these two technologies are too timely.

For the first time, the Dwarven King made it clear that he was willing to ally with him and support him in force. It made Chen Jian overjoyed.

Although it was only a not very powerful force, the dwarves were too much of a military help to their allies, and their casting skills alone were enough to benefit Jian Chen a lot.

Why did the Elven Kingdom want to keep the dwarves? Why did Empress Catherine want to annex the Dwarves to the Empire? It's not because of the dwarves' outstanding skills and good combat effectiveness! Now that Jian Chen can get the full support of the hill dwarves in these two aspects with only one technique, it is strange that he can not agree.

After exchanging letters with the dwarf king several times and finalizing the specific cooperation matters, Chen Jianle found Malkam happily, took out the letter from the dwarf king, and asked him to bring a group of dwarven craftsmen to his castle to build an arsenal that could make large weapons.

After negotiation, Chen Jian successfully got the dwarven king to agree to him, and immediately began to ask the dwarves staying in Hammondale to help Chen Jian make a ballista and trebuchet.

Chen Jian's side was full of happy events, and he was in good spirits. In Werningburg, however, Mlak almost blew up his lungs.

He finally caught Jian Chen's sore foot and found conclusive evidence that Jian Chen and the Cregans were colluding to disadvantage the Empire.

A demonic messenger of Cregan who had set out from Overher for Hammondale was discovered by Mrak's scouts.

The demon was dying for unknown reasons when it was discovered, so the scouts easily killed him, and then searched for a letter and a magical letter teleportation array from him.

The content of the letter allowed Mlak to finally establish the fact that Jian Chen was a spy of the Kregans.

The letter was signed by the current ruler of the Ofers, King Lucifer of the Cregans.

In the letter, Lucifer denounced Chen Jian's incompetence, because he accidentally damaged the magic teleportation array used by the two sides to communicate, which led to the lack of information between the two sides and the inability to transmit information in time, and caused the army of the Ofer Kingdom to attack Hammondale in the end to achieve Lucifer's strategic intentions, and could not cooperate with the other Ofer army on the eastern defense line of the Erathia Empire to launch a two-way attack on the enemy at the same time, which eventually led to the current stalemate between the two countries

For the sake of future contact, Lucifer had to send a special messenger to send a new magic teleportation array to Jian Chen.

In the end, Lucifer asked Jian Chen to contact Jian as soon as he received the magic teleportation array to discuss his next move, so as to achieve his long-planned military plan as soon as possible.

"This shameless man! No wonder he hasn't been moving lately, that's what happened! Bremer said hatefully, "Your Excellency. We should immediately report this matter to the Empire and Her Majesty the Empress, and then immediately bring Jian Chen under control!" He must not be allowed to contact the Devils of Kerrigan again! ”

Mrak sighed and said in a deep voice: "The empire is really lucky, if the Krigan really attack from two directions at the same time, and there is Jian Chen in response, I'm afraid that now they have attacked the belly of the empire!" I didn't expect my guesses to be correct, with this letter, I think Her Majesty will believe me, I hope this time, she will not let me down again! ”

As he spoke, he picked up his pen and wrote a letter to Empress Kaibeilin, explaining what had happened and his own speculation, and enclosing the letter written by Lucifer to Jian Chen, and then asked the Empress to order the arrest of Chen Ke.

When Msak's letter was received, Queen Catherine had ended another battle with the Orver army.

Facts have proved that the Kerrigan people are really different from what they used to be, even on the frontal battlefield, they can already be inseparable from the emperor ** team, and they have made the emperor ** team taste defeat several times by virtue of the advantage of troops.

What shocked Queen Catherine even more. A human general has appeared in the Krigan army!

This discovery made the Empress's heart bitter.

While the people of the Empire are still immersed in the glory of the past, continuing to be arrogant and unmotivated, the enemies of the Empire are constantly improving, and even the Klegans, who have always been self-righteous, have begun to break down the barriers between races, and enlighten the alien generals, and after a while, maybe they will begin to use alien soldiers to join the battle.

One only has to look at the current performance of the Orpho army to imagine how much knowledge and how much the Kerrigans have learned from these alien elites who have joined them

With this progress, the Kerrigans, who had traditionally played a two-star role in the war. Now he has the ability to fight the empire alone, and has gained the upper hand in battle.

This is just the kingdom of Ofer, what about the other countries that are hostile to the Empire? What kind of progress have they made? What kind of terrible damage will they bring to the empire in the future?

When will it be before those in the empire will be able to see the truth in front of them and start to face reality?

Will all the efforts you make just wishful thinking on your part? Can these efforts really be exchanged for the re-emergence of the empire?

For the first time, Empress Catherine had uncertain thoughts about the beliefs she had always held.

Worried, she returned to her tent, and was about to wash her face to clear her chaotic mind a little, when she received a letter from the intelligence officer.

"Your Majesty, this is an urgent letter from Count Rak."

Hearing the name Mrak, Empress Catherine was a little upset.

This famous general of the empire, who once won her trust, has really disappointed her for a while

She had never realized before that this aristocratic general, who had considerable military talent, was such a stubborn and hostile alien.

And judging by the performance in recent times, the Empress found. Mrak is a little too idealistic, and he is immersed in his own world. stubbornly believes that the world is what he imagined, and his past successes make him proud, make him extremely confident, and make him unable to see the truth in front of him.

And the hard-line attitude he showed in the Bremer affair. It was even more of a headache for the Empress, and the threatening attitude faintly revealed in his letter also made Empress Catherine very annoyed.

This was a rather dangerous sign, and the Empress found that it was no longer suitable for Mrak to stay in Hammondal. She had considered whether to replace someone to guard Hammondale, but she couldn't muster the right manpower, and as the situation changed, she became more and more jealous. I am afraid that this kind of transfer will make me lose more support in the army. The victorious general, brave and talented Mlak has a very high prestige in the army and is also quite popular

Good.

This morning, the Empress was still hesitant to take advantage of the opportunity to move Mrak out of Hammondale against the Kerrigans, but he did not expect to arrive with an urgent letter first.

What did he want to say this time, was he targeting Jian Chen again?

At the thought of this possibility, Empress Catherine felt annoyed for no reason. She opened the letter with a split of two. I looked at it in a hurry, and it was not what she expected, but this time Mlak was even more outrageous. He went so far as to say that Jian Chen was the Kerrigan's internal response to the Empire, and he found evidence.

"It's inexplicable!" The Empress sighed and opened the attachment again.

Then she froze at the ground

She couldn't believe what she was seeing.

A letter from the newly appointed King of Over, Lucifer, to Jian Chen! And this letter doesn't look like a forgery by any means, is everything that Mrak said true?

But how is this possible? Jian Chen's performance has always been a bit problematic in the eyes of outsiders. But the empress knew that in fact, many of the things Chen Jian did were instructed by herself, not that he really had any intentions and conspiracy.

But what about the letter in front of you?

Empress Catherine looked at the so-called evidence carefully, and was a little confused for a moment.

If this letter is fake, but who would want to frame Jian Chen like this? Although Mlak was hostile to Jian Chen, the Empress believed that he would not be able to use such a blow

Kerrigans? What reason did they have to deal with Jian Chen? This seems a bit unreasonable.

Elven kingdom? It's possible, but what about the Cregan messenger? The Empress didn't think that the Elven Kingdom, which was more alien-exclusive than the Empire, would keep the Kerrigans captured in the last war until now.

If this letter was true, then Jian Chen's previous performance was too good, and the empress really couldn't believe that a person who could even deceive herself would make such a low-level mistake as breaking the magic letter teleportation array.

Even if it is really accidentally broken, such a scheming person will definitely have a remedy.

And this letter came from a little strange, how could that Kerrigan messenger be intercepted so easily by Mrak's scouts? There's definitely something wrong with that.

Empress Catherine was irritated and walked back and forth in the tent, thinking about how to deal with this matter, she wanted to send a letter directly to ask Chen Jian the truth, but she also knew that this would definitely not work, and no one would admit such a thing.

In the end, Empress Catherine decided that no matter what the truth of the matter was, she still had to control Jian Chen first, and Hammondale had to protect it anyway, and she couldn't take this risk.

If Chen Jian is really a spy, then he will undoubtedly sabotage their plan; If Jian Chen was framed, the empress believed that he would be able to understand her last resort, and then she would apologize to him and leave.

After having a decision. Empress Catherine immediately sent a letter back to Mrak, asking him to control Jian Chen first. However, in the letter, she repeatedly explained that she must ensure Chen Jian's safety and must not hurt Chen Jian.
