In the sixth phase of the Valhallic Wars, when it is the will of the country in the faction, it is true that the strategy of the camp can be determined through the operation panel, but each country consciousness has action points, and the higher the degree of resistance of the country to the strategy of the Immortal Spirit, the more action points the Heroic Spirit needs, and even the inability to act at all.

(Because there is a cap on the action points of the Heroic Spirit, there are some lethal strategies that directly exceed the action point, such as allowing your faction to surrender directly before the war starts)

So of course it is possible to decide on a strategy, but the national consciousness of the Polly camp still welcomes people with outstanding talents to make excellent speeches for their own ideas, such as this Kudas, who won the favor of Umora, so Umola spent some action points to promote Kudas later.

Yes, between Boris and Portlou, Umora leans towards Portlou. There's no way, Portloo is far away, Boris is very close, it's close enough to stick to his face, and the geopolitical environment determines that Polly and Boris are destined to be friends, so instead of this, it's better to fall directly to Portloo - of course, you can't just go over for nothing, you have to bring something over.

The History of Bourbon's Naval Wars, Chapter 5, Two Faces

[After the debate between Kudas and Lul in the parliament, Kudas's proposition prevailed, after all, there are clouds in the divine realm: caring for the distant people and beating their neighbors, so the nobles of Polly gradually tended to unite with Potloo, but before the two countries could unite more closely, there were still some problems to be resolved, so Polly and Potloo's envoys held another meeting to discuss. 】

[Portloo is far away from Polly, but Polly still has some dissatisfaction with Pollou, for example, in the previous negotiations with Boris, Potloo's attitude towards the North Poputus issue in Polly was very vague, which caused Polly's concern, so Polly asked Potlot to make a clear statement on the North Popuru issue. 】

[And the North Poutu people have no connection with the Polo people at all, and they are only used as bargaining chips, so when Poli has this request, Polo easily abandons the North Poutu people in exchange for an alliance with Poly. 】

[So in the year 2004, the 417th year of the founding of Portloo and the 573rd year of the founding of Poli, after resolving those trivial differences, the two countries were united more closely by signing the "Treaty of Military Alliance on the Other Side" in the capital of Portloux. 】

[The meaning of the "Other Side Alliance" is because the two parties that signed this alliance, Polly and Porto, are located between the other side, so it is called the "Other Side Alliance". When the Beyers Alliance was created in 2004, Polly was willing to honor Potloo as its leader, and Indoland, Maisica, and Ulch joined the alliance as Pottolou vassals. 】

Polly joined the military alliance with Portelou, although this news made Hades, the national consciousness of the Boris camp, slightly angry, but it was also expected, after all, with the "friendly relationship" between Polly and Boris for hundreds of years, it is not difficult to guess his movements.

After Poli fell, the struggle between the two sides entered a new stage, and the focus of the next contention shifted from Polly to Braazon and Butoxi, who were still out of the way in the south.

After the "Second Tokxi War" more than ten years ago, although Butoxon still did not get rid of the status of a vassal state of Blayazon, its strength has been greatly enhanced, from occupying only the southern part of the Butoxsi Peninsula to occupying the entire Butoxie Peninsula, and swallowing the new territory of Urach.

After the defeat of Brayason, the strength retreated, and the territory shrank by half, and now the territory of the two countries is almost the same.

In the face of the invitation and co-optation of Boris and Potlou, the two strongest countries in the Bourbon Sea, the national consciousness of the Brayathon camp Shuraqi and the national consciousness of the Butuoxi camp Mei Luoqiu did not agree stupidly, they put forward a request, a request that made Portolu's stomach ache.

[In the second stage of the struggle, both Potloo and Boris focused on fighting for the South, namely Braazon and Butoxi, in an attempt to draw them into their own camp. 】

[For Boris, the action is undoubtedly easier than that of Portoux, because Boris's purpose is to bring over Bhutoxi, who has the fourth strongest navy in the Bourbon Sea, so Boris can make any promises to Bhutoxi. Anyway, whether it is Portloux or Bourbon, Butoxie is out of reach, and it will not infringe on the interests of Boris. 】

[But for Porteux, the co-optation operation is very difficult and painful, because Porteux's optimal purpose is to bring both countries together, and the second purpose is to ensure the security of his own south in the event of war.] 】

[However, Brayazon and Boutoxe have opposite goals, Braazon hopes that Potloo will support his annexation of Butoxi, and Butoxi hopes that Potlou can support him to get rid of Potlou, and if Potlou makes a clear promise, then it will inevitably anger another country and prompt him to turn to Boris.] 】

Marcina, the national consciousness of the Portelou camp, was really sad because of the Southern issue, and she was depressed to find that this was almost an insoluble existence for Portlew.

When talking to Kutumat on the phone, Magina complained: "If I support Brayason, of course, I can ensure the security of the southern border, but it also means that I will be the enemy of the fourth strongest naval state.

"Do you remember the Nasu system of Butoksi in the past? At that time, Butoxi only had half of the Butoksi Peninsula, and it was still able to rely on a powerful navy to support it for more than ten years with only three main cities left, and if it was supported by Boris, then the Nasu system would not be bled by Brayason?"

"So what if you choose Butoxi? Judging from the experience of the last war between Butoxi and Brayason, as long as there is no way to be supported by the navy, it will soon be captured, and it will fight all the way to the fortress of Mormando before stopping. And when Braazon joins Boris, the southern borders of Portloo are doomed to be forever at peace!"

"So I thought about it, and I felt that I had to use procrastination and not give them a clear reply to who Portlou supported, so that they wouldn't dare to turn to Boris if Portlou didn't say anything. ”

[Since Portlou did not choose a clear side between Brayazon and Butoxi, the Brayazon issue began to cool down in 2005 after a while. The Bourbon Sea went through an eerie atmosphere for two years, until 2007, when Boris issued a new regulation, which once again caused tension in the Bourbon Sea. 】

[Boris forced his four vassals, Bourbon, Pokang, Edonan, and South Boutu, to sign the Treaty of the Customs Union on the Islands with him, depriving the four vassals of their tariff autonomy and allowing the vassals to forcibly join his trade with Portlou. 】

[In order to ensure that the trade penalties of the vassal states can be carried out perfectly, Boris has set up a field tax department to supervise the trade penalties of the vassal states. I am one of the people most qualified to talk about this, because my grandfather Napolika joined the department, and when I was young he told me a lot about the situation at that time. 】

Selekos wants to change his name, because there is also a person with the same name as himself on the Portlou side, also named Selekos, who has made a bunch of nonsense, and as a result, the name Selekos is now in Boris, and many people believe that the current tense situation is caused by the Selekos on the other side.

Hate the house and Wu, Selekos has become a curse in Boris, and as a businessman with small capital, Selekos now asks his guys to call himself Saylor to hide people's eyes and ears when he goes out to do business.

Ever since Selekos made that remark in Olly, the new term "trade penalty" has popped up and is known to most businessmen. Because nowadays, when foreign ports make themselves pay more taxes, the reason is this "trade penalty".

The other two trade routes, Selekos, were not clear under this harsh winter of trade punishment, but in the case of the Konigta trade route, the purchase price of goods there increased dramatically, and in order to preserve capital, the price of goods returned by merchants also increased sharply compared to before, and as a result, the purchase volume fell sharply, and many small merchant groups went bankrupt.

If there were no accidents, the small family of Selekos should have been those small merchant groups that went bankrupt, but an accident caused Selekos's business to flourish against the cold snap and annex many merchant ships.

This is because the daughter of Selekos was taken by a big nobleman in Bourbon and regarded as a secret lover, and the infatuated nobleman was willing to match Selekos and use his connections to engage in smuggling, and the price of the smuggled Cornigta goods was extremely low compared to the current market price, which allowed Selekos to sell at a lower price.

"The tax collector of the port of Astor is my uncle, and I can ask them to give you preferential treatment for merchant ships, and now the Potloo Sea Supervisor in Nissius, to put it mildly, is my family's branch hundreds of years ago, or my grandmother's family, I can get a relationship with them, and they will get you preferential goods. ”

This is what the "big nobleman" said to Selekos, and it is also the capital of Selekos's brilliant development in recent years. And since the other party is so related to Selekos, Selekos naturally wants to hand over half of the profits smuggled every year to him, and the remaining three layers are handed over to other bigwigs, and the remaining two layers are into the merchant group, and the last layer is his own.

Although only one layer is his own, but in the current situation of a large number of small business groups going bankrupt, Selekos feels that he is lucky to be like this, but even this little luck under the cold winter has quickly disappeared.

"We are employees of the tax department in the field, your patron has fallen, and you are also suspected of smuggling, illegally harming the interests of the state, come with me. ”

"W-What department is this? How come I've never heard of it?" Selekos was stunned when his captor rushed to him like a wolf.

Among the staff who arrested Selekos, the leader was a nobleman named Napolika, who looked sven, but there was a tiger-like evil look in his eyes: "Oh, a new department was established a month ago, and it is responsible for monitoring whether the laws of Boris have been violated in the various protected countries. ”

Napolika pointed to the patron in Selekos in the distance, who was being pressed out by the heavily armed guards, and looked disgraced, no longer the courteous and wolf-like dignity of the past: "Isn't it necessary to investigate people like him?"
