Chapter 508: Self-inflicted
All sorts of conspiracy theories were rampant, and Bresson's country was in chaos in an instant. The king was assassinated, at a time when the empire needed a strong leader the most. No one can estimate how hard this will be to the country.
In addition to defending against foreign enemies and suppressing domestic turmoil, there is one more thing that must be solved immediately, and that is the appointment of a new king.
The biggest regret in Xianger's life is that there are too few sons, so the sons either died early or died in battle, and one of the remaining three adults was enchanted by him, one was mentally retarded, and the other was cruel and unkind. There are a few younger sons, but these sons are not of high status, and they are basically all born to slaves and maids with low status.
If it is another country, the choice may be greater, and it is enough to canonize the queen without a man. But the Resson Empire does not have such a tradition, they will not canonize a queen, even if the Xianger branch is all extinct.
The situation became awkward all of a sudden, and Bresson was instantly divided into two camps, one side supported the establishment of the third prince as the king, after all, he was the son of Xiangel, even if he acted irritable, it was not unacceptable, this group of people who supported the three princes were mostly members of the royal family, they didn't want the imperial power to fall aside, and they were most afraid of the stars coming to the forefront. On the other hand, the second prince is to help the mentally handicapped to ascend to the throne, first elect the minister and auxiliary government, and then work hard to find the potion and magic to restore the intelligence of the second prince, this group of people is dominated by major political teams and military personnel, and they are also afraid that the star will stand up and compete with them for power at this time.
Both sides are trying to control their emotions, starting a fight within a limited range, they are watching the stars with an attitude, waiting for this mysterious guy to stand up and make a statement.
Will the stars come out? He won't stand up anymore because he's in a huge crisis, a life-threatening crisis.
"Do you think it really works?" Lei Sili pressed her chest from time to time. Although the injury is almost healed. But she still habitually touched it with her hands.
"Sure, it's because Star hasn't attacked the Bresson royal family for so long, and now as long as we can find Star, we can kill him." Jiang Li's eyes were blazing, he had already seen the hope of destroying the Bresson Empire, which gave him the motivation to move forward all of a sudden.
"Lord of the Castle. I don't think we'd better look for it, don't we just want to mess up Brisson, Star Death can achieve this goal, and it's better for him to be alive. Carol, who had remained silent, spoke suddenly.
"Oh, how do you say?" Jiang Li brought Carol just to think that she was planning for herself, and of course she cared a lot about what she said.
"The reason why Bresson is not fighting now is because both of them are afraid of Star, and they are afraid that once the two sides start a war and let Star sit on the Fisherman's Advantage, then as long as Star does not come out, it will be fine. As long as the name of the elves is advertised to the outside world, it is enough to kill the star. The Bresson people must have known some vague news, and they would certainly believe it. There is no suppression of the stars. They will fight, and our goal will be achieved. In addition, it is good to keep the star, as long as the star is not dead, it is equivalent to a shackle that cannot be removed, and it will always remind the Brisson people that they have an enemy who threatens their fundamental interests waiting for an opportunity. The Brysons have to keep a reserve when they do things, and they don't do their best to fight us. Carol explained in detail, but Jiang Li felt that she had other purposes that she hadn't said.
Although he had reservations, Jiang Li also thought that Carol was right. Killing the star is just a solution once and for all. But the effect is not necessarily the best. What's more, the team that came out with him is now full of injuries, and Lei Sili, the strongest combat force, has just recovered. Xianger's decisive blow is not so easy to suffer, that is, a strongman like Lei Sili, who was directly killed in seconds if he changed his strength to a slightly worse one.
"It's not difficult to publish fake news, won't the elves react?" Jiang Li's space is the treasure starry sky hourglass of the elf clan, once the news is released, outsiders may not know. But the elves will inevitably guess what happened, and they will inevitably mobilize all their forces to track down the whereabouts of the hourglass, and if there is a mistake and omission to let them know that the hourglass is in their hands, it will bring endless trouble.
"As long as the hourglass doesn't appear, who can guess our heads. The dead Brisson Empire of Schangel still has no clue. Until now, they still insist that it has something to do with the undead, and they definitely don't know the whereabouts of the hourglass. Take 10,000 steps back, they know that the hourglass may have been obtained by you, so what can they do? Announce it to the outside world and then send someone to collect it? The hourglass was stolen from the elves, and they dared to admit that the elves would never give up. Carol had been thinking about it for two days, and she had thought of almost every detail.
Jiang Li thought about it, thinking that Carol's plan was still good, instead of wasting time looking for stars everywhere, and possibly exposing the secret of the hourglass, it was better to simply hide behind the scenes, watch the Brisson people act, and make a fortune by himself.
A few hours later, a message reached the Elven Forest, which instantly detonated the emotions of the Elven Clan. There is even news that someone has disappeared for more than a thousand years, and the hourglass has also been activated, and it is in a running state. The elves spent a lot of money to confirm the authenticity of the news, and the Star Hourglass did appear on the battlefield of Extreme Road City, but it was not clear who held the hourglass, nor did it know where the hourglass went after the battle. From the analysis of the intelligence, it is very likely that the hourglass has been hidden in the hands of the Bresson royal family, but now that Xangel has been killed, the hourglass is missing, and there is no proof of death, and it is impossible to pursue the Bresson Empire.
Also getting the news were the two major political factions of the Brisson Empire, they silently waited for the Elven Clan's reaction, and as a result, after waiting for three days, the Elven Clan really sent an elite law enforcement team to search for stars all over the world under the leadership of the two Great Elders.
These worries were lifted, and the two groups immediately went-for-tat to each other, and the battlefield could not be taken care of for the time being, and the bandits were not cared for, and the two sides were single-mindedly trying to divide the victory and defeat.
Of course, the people who invaded the Brisson Empire would not give up this rare opportunity, and they fought back again, reopening a new round of city battles. Unlike other countries, the Dark Empire has always maintained a stubborn stance. Even the small cavalry regiments that hunted everywhere were withdrawn, and it looked like a withdrawal of troops.
Of course, the most active person on the battlefield can only be the Chosen One, and with such a good opportunity, the Chosen One will naturally not give up expanding the results. The Chosen Legions of various countries attacked everywhere and grabbed the small cities and towns that had been beaten once and had not yet had time to build their city defenses.
The chaotic form forced the two hotly fought political blocs to make a compromise as soon as possible, and the result of this compromise was the absurdity of jealousy. The two parties agreed to let the three princes be temporary regents. But the three princes are not emperors, they are just prison states. The reason is also very simple, on the one hand, you can test whether the third prince really has the ability to be a king, and on the other hand, you can also have time to find medicine for the second prince who has been stupid and stupid.
After the compromise was made, the new regent of Bresson, the third son of Schenger, Norok, became the new leader of Bresson. The inauguration of Norok as regent took only a very simple ceremony, and then the new regent gave his first order to launch a full-scale counterattack.
The large crowd of Bresson Corps sprang into action. They followed the regent's orders and attacked towns and cities. Attack the invaders' camp and deliver a devastating blow to the invading Chosen One.
Bresson's style is unusual, and the Bresson people have always been known for their trickery, and hard work is not their forte. But the emotions that had been suppressed for too long just found a breakthrough, and Bryson's legion ushered in one victory after another. The already ferocious Brisson army has become even more murderous, and they are now carrying out a policy of extermination, leaving no one alive against all enemies, whether they surrender voluntarily or stubbornly resist to the end. All of them were shattered. The invaders, who were not accustomed to their new tactical play, were beaten back one after another.
Seeing that the policy he had set was paying off, the ambitions of the regent of Norroc began to swell. He also sent out several legions of the guarantee. And let the defenders of the city that have stabilized also participate in the counterattack.
The investment of a large number of troops still worked well, and not only were the aboriginal armies repulsed, but the Chosen One, who were like dogskin plasters, began to retreat. During this time, Bresson fought too hard, and the small and medium-sized gangs and families immediately couldn't bear it, and they were unwilling to send back the spoils they had finally obtained from the battlefield, and the Chosen One, who had come to join in the fun, chose to withdraw temporarily.
The Chosen One who had occupied the town naturally couldn't just give up so easily. They waited with trepidation for Bryson's army to attack, and no matter what the final outcome was, they would never leave Bresson with an intact city.
Ten days later, the Bresson people are still gaining momentum, and the area of territory recovered is getting bigger and bigger. More and more cities have been occupied. Just when the people of Bresson are full of hope and preparing to conquer the country under the leadership of the regent, an unexpected thing happens.
……
Baiya is a very inconspicuous small city, it is very close to Chongqiu City in a straight line, but it is actually quite far away, separated by two mountains and a huge canyon that cannot be crossed.
After the outbreak of the war, Baiya City was relatively peaceful, it was located in the hinterland, the location was not important, and the city was not remarkable on the surface. Neither the invading natives nor the Chosen have targeted it. This made Baiya City a rare peaceful city for a period of time.
The city, undisturbed by the war, is a paradise where large groups of refugees come in droves. A number of refugee camps were built around Baiya City.
The city lord of Baiya City, Nanailuo, is a little nobleman with a good heart and some ability, and the development of Baiya City has been quite good over the years, which has allowed him to accumulate a lot of funds and food. After the refugees came, he tried his best to help the refugees, which made more and more refugees gather around Baiya City, and there was no open space to build a refugee camp.
