But when it came to this status, it was absolutely idiotic to accuse Mirno on the spot and not be able to produce evidence, so he could only swallow his anger and wait for Charles II to lose his anger. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At this time, Charles II was angry entirely because the psychological gap was too great. He'd been thinking about his plan to reclaim Evta almost every day lately, and he couldn't think about anything else. The vast area on the map was so fascinating, but when Count Moore returned to the royal city, he received the reply that "it is not right to use any more troops now"!

The fragrant steaks were grilled and served, but the fork had not yet fallen but people were taken away - Charles II felt like that. However, he also understood that Moore was never a man without purpose, and after complaining a few words, he still took a deep breath to adjust his mentality, and asked, "Tell me why, I hope you can give enough reasons." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty... In this battle, the orcs obviously changed their strength for special reasons, so it led to serious losses in the infantry and cavalry..."

"Wait, what kind of change in strength are you talking about?"

Charles II was a little impatient, and he felt that the Earl of Moore was completely looking for reasons to prevaricate himself. And how did Moore know the reason for the change in the orcs? His explanation of nature was vague, much to the disappointment of Charles II.

"Is there any other reason?"

"And then there's the logistics... It has already cost a lot of manpower and material resources to fight the orcs this time, and this is still in the case of being close to the city, and the logistical pressure is not great. But if you go to Evta, you have to go all the way west from Bergen's territory, collect food as you go, and at the same time build up supply lines, but Bergen's territory has just been plundered by orcs, and many villages and towns along the way have been destroyed..."

This is a bit of a stinging statement, because Mirno never mentioned the loss of Bergen's territory to Charles II, but only reported that "the village had been plundered" and reported a few casualties, without mentioning the tragic situation of the looting and burning of the granaries and the massive loss of the population.

Moore didn't want to mention this, but if he really marched into Ivta, this is really a problem at hand, and he has to say it if he doesn't say it, otherwise Charles II really asked him to lead his troops to fight, where will the food for tens of thousands of people come from?

Hearing him say this, Charles II turned his head to look at Mirno, who hurried back: "It's true that the orcs have plundered Bergen's territory, but this grain can still be transported. ”

Charles II was the main battle faction, and Mirno was to stand firmly on the emperor's side. If he retreats now, where will the emperor dare to reuse him in the future?

Politics is sometimes like this, when you are forced into a corner, you have to stand up, even if Mirno knows that it is difficult to squeeze out food in Bergen's territory right now, then she has to tighten her belt and grit your teeth - this is a matter of position, not whether it will work or not.

"Any other reasons?"

"Well, there's... The orc forces have already withdrawn from Ivta, and if they transfer their forces now, it will be very difficult for us to attack. ”

"What!?"

Charles II stood up directly, and said with a gloomy face: "Who told you that? Where did you get the news?"

Sweat oozed from Mirno's forehead instantly, he had actually received this news early in the morning, but in order to allow Charles II to continue to promote the war, this military information had been held down by him since last night, and it was never sent to the emperor's desk. But Mirno didn't expect that Moore would find out about this problem at this time - although the two didn't like each other before, they had not openly confronted each other, but now that the news is leaked like this, it is obvious that they are planning to tear their faces with themselves!

Mirno wished that Moore would die now, and that anything he said could lead to his own death. But behind the hatred, Mirno has long lost his cool... If it was something else, he would have thought about why Moore would not hesitate to tear his face with himself to dissuade Charles II, but the hatred of losing his son and the recent failure of the battle plan made him obsessed with "eliminating Ivta".

Unbeknownst to Mirnor, who was full of hatred, he had fallen into the pit that Roddy had dug.

Why didn't Roddy kill Mirno in the first place? Because he knew at that time that this royal family was essentially a cancer - it was very simple to remove the cancer, and it was just a direct push with elite troops. But the conquest of an entire kingdom by force would bring with it numerous hidden dangers. If he wanted to truly achieve his political goals, Roddy could never take the initiative to declare war.

In the event of a change of power, the commoners and most of the lords needed not a new king who stepped on their throne, but a "savior" who would save them from the fire.

Quite simply, let the royal family lose itself in greed and hatred.

Mirno is just a small part of all Roddy's plans, he originally planned to use more means to subtly influence Charles II, but he didn't expect... The "bomb" that he bought at the beginning was completely detonated at this time.

"The orcs are withdrawing from Ivta?

Mirno looked serious, apparently asking Moore for an explanation. The latter originally thought that Charles II knew the news, but when he saw the scene in front of him, he immediately understood the reason, and a chill suddenly surged in his heart.

Forcibly keeping His Majesty in the dark, what exactly does Mirno want to do?

Mirno was not originally a powerful minister, but only recently became Charles II's most trusted nobleman. But in just a few months, he has infiltrated his power to such an extent that he even made Charles II...

The Earl of Moore thought all of this, and immediately realized that he was in a dilemma: should he continue to expose and dissuade him desperately, or should he just talk about it?

He glanced up at Mirno, whose forehead was bruised, and then turned to look at Charles II, who had always been loyal, and said slowly: "Forgive me for being presumptuous, Your Majesty, I have not confirmed this news, but my subordinates have heard it from the peddlers' pawns. I-"

"So you've come up with so many reasons, and none of them can stand. ”

Charles II exhaled, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I know that you are very tired from leading troops to fight, so I don't need you to go this time." ”

Without mentioning anything else, he just let Moore leave, and the signal brought by this gesture could not be more obvious. The Earl of Moore sighed in his heart knowing that he had been removed from the core of power in the royal family of Elson - but he was far more decisive than Charles II, and since he had made this decision, he immediately accepted the reality: "Long live Your Majesty." ”

He took a few steps back, turned and walked away without the slightest hesitation.

Serving the emperor is what he should do. But if His Majesty had embarked on the path of self-destruction, Moore had no intention of martyring with him - the scene of Sauron's army rushing before him had already made him realize... Able to face such an enemy without leaking, Evta is far more powerful than Charles II imagined.

As a qualified general, he will not take his army to death. And as a qualified politician, he likewise made the choices that all nobles would make.

After all, no one really wants to be cannon fodder. (To be continued.) )
