Chapter 492: Whether to send troops
Noxus
The news of Demacia's rebellion, of course, could not be compared to the big guys in Noxus, they were very happy to learn that Demacia was in chaos without a fight, thinking that when they had fought enough, they would come to their side again to reap the benefits of the fisherman, and then they could go straight to Huanglong without spending a single soldier.
The prestige of the fourth is very high, but compared with the third, there is still a gap between it, and the country is waiting to see what kind of position he can reach.
Tiantong Palace
"Now that Demacia is in civil strife, and the news of Gavin III's death has spread throughout Valoran, what are we going to do now?"
As the top Empress of Noxus, Her Majesty Athena said after looking around.
As the supreme commander of Noxus, Svein, of course, has to stand up and speak at this time, he understands what the empress means, if she doesn't ask about Demacia, it means that she wants to wait for them to lose both sides in the internal strife, and now that she asks, she wants to send troops to take advantage of it, and last time because of the plane, Karamanda's energy node was not obtained, and this time she can get this field back to make up for the loss last time.
Svein arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, although the thief leader Jiawen III has passed away, but his son Jiawen IV has ascended the throne and become the new monarch of Demacia, it is still better for the fourth to fight, I suggest that we wait and see for a while to see who can win or lose when he and his brothers fight, and we must come out with this soldier." β
At this time, a blonde-haired and noble man also stood up in his own order and said to the empress: "Your Majesty, I do not agree with the views of Commander Svein. β
This man's name is Abbyron, and he is one of the king's seven martial seas, and his status in the court is lower than that of Svein, but as the empress's confidant, his potential status is higher than that of Svein, one is the identity of the open place, and the other is the identity of the secret, and the two are different.
When the empress heard this, she asked, "What do you mean by that?"
"Your Majesty, if the Fourth Emperor of the Thieves finishes dealing with his brothers, then they will definitely fight a beautiful victory, and their morale will be high, and it is not feasible for us to take advantage of them at this time, their troops are slightly exhausted, and it is simply ridiculous for us to send troops at that time. β
The empress frowned slightly: "How do you know that the fourth thief will definitely win? What if he loses? After all, he only has one person to fight, and his younger brothers are about a dozen." β
Abillon also said: "When it comes to fighting, the Thief Leader IV is undoubtedly terrible, he has fought with us Noxus many times, although the army is not as strong as ours, but his wisdom on the battlefield does not allow us to question. β
"What do you think, Svein?"
Svein still said the same thing: "Your Majesty, the minister's suggestion is to wait until they are both defeated before sending troops, regardless of whether the fourth army's troops are exhausted at that time, but his sergeant personnel must have been reduced, we Noxus are all soldiers of a hundred battles, there is no reason to be afraid of them, whether to send troops or not, it depends on how Your Majesty is skilled." β
Athena is also thinking about whether to send troops now, or when they are about to fight, he has two plans for sending troops on his desk, and he can't choose for a while, because every time he sends troops, the benefits are great, but the negative effects are also many.
Which plan can minimize the loss and minimize the benefit, this is the question she should consider, and it is still in the contradiction, and it is not possible to make a conclusion.
"Commander Svein, why bother to grow the prestige of others and destroy your own morale? I Noxus is full of soldiers' blood, let's let the thief leader IV deal with his younger brothers on the one hand, and deal with us on the other, I believe that even if it is an iron fighter, it will fall under the iron hooves of our Noxus, you are a conservative, and now the battlefield is changing rapidly, and your set of rules has long been unsuitable. β
Thinking because he listened to Babylon's words, he just wanted to laugh in his heart, he had fought more battles than Abbyron had eaten, he hadn't fought any battles, and now it was someone else's turn to teach him how to fight, it was really a big knife in front of Guan Gong, a ridiculous stroke.
But then again, the identity of the Seven Martial Seas is very sensitive, they represent the empress, if they oppose it in the court, they must be rebelling against the empress in disguise, so Svein is willing to pretend to be deaf and dumb, you just say it, and I won't blame me if you lose the battle when the time comes, who is it up to you to decide.
Athena trusts the Seven Martial Seas very much, but fighting this kind of thing, she is hesitant, I don't know what to do, the Seven Martial Seas are talents, assassination, intelligence, fighting, each is a talent in ten thousand, but the only one who has not been involved in it is the aspect of war, it can be said that everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.
Although Svein fought a defeat before, there was no way to do it, who called Demacia that there was high technology, and even the plane appeared, and the power of the talisman was not enough to shoot down the plane in the sky, so he could only watch them fly over their heads and obtain their own information.
At this time, Athena said again: "I listened to the speeches of the two of you just now, I don't know if the others have anything else to say, our purpose today is to get the maximum benefit of Demacia with the least loss, say whatever you want, I forgive you for your innocence today." β
Speaking of war, the generals on the other side, each said that they wanted to be the vanguard and fight for the country, everyone supported Svein's statement, and waited until the two sides were about to fight, and then went to the countless wars that recruited Svein's ability, and his control of the battlefield was much more unique than ordinary people.
No one dares to offend the identity of the Seven Martial Seas, this is because Athena's majesty is too strong, and at this time, what can be done is to make some adjustments to the generals.
Darius was heavily used during this time, due to the death of the former Svein's henchman Ruiwen and Ionian's swordsman Yasuo, which led to the continuous rise of Darius's status in the army.
But....
"I haven't seen Riven in a while, and I haven't received a leave note from her, does anyone know where she's gone?" Athena said suddenly.
This sentence scared a lot of people to death, after the death of Yasuo and Rui Wen PK, you praised Svein, but Rui Wen made a verbal commendation, she thought that the person was dead, and no matter how much reward was useless.
Svein said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, Rui Wen has died with Yasuo of Ionia, you know. β
After listening, Athena suddenly realized that this time was indeed too busy, so busy that she even forgot about Ruiwen's death, which was really a dereliction of duty as a monarch.
"Alas. Athena sighed.
Rui Wen's character is actually very pleasing to Athena, if Rui Wen is growing up for a while, she will be attracted by Athens as a confidant and enter the Seven Martial Seas, but now that she is dead, no matter how much she says, it is too much.
Rui Wen is one of the few female generals in Noxus, so she will naturally receive Athena's attention, and she was angry for a long time when she heard the news that Svein had let Rui Wen and Yasuo die together.
Athena had never been on the battlefield and didn't know the dangers of the battlefield, and she had to rely on Svein to help her fight, so Svein's approach was also tacitly approved by her.
In Athena's view, this is Svein attacking her as the empress, as an empress, there are also many difficulties, and she can't mess with her temperament, just like Ruiwen's file, in the eyes of the general, Svein has nothing wrong, Ruiwen can't beat Yasuo, but he can drag down Yasuo's pace, and exchange a low-level general for a high-level military general for a high-level general's life, which is very cost-effective, and the empress's sullen heart can't be directed at Svein, on the contrary, he has to reward his practiceγ
It is precisely because of Ruiwen's incident that Athena's dislike for Svein is getting heavier and heavier, and now Noxus's national strength is strong, but there is no commander who can replace Svein, which makes Athena very annoyed, Svein's power is very big, if he has any very bad intentions, then he can only replace it.
"You better discuss this matter a lot, I think Svein and Abbyron are good, you can find a compromise and show me the transcript. β
The Empress did not make a decision on the spot, and the matter only dragged on.
Svein doesn't have the intention of rebelling now, firstly, he is very old, he doesn't like to be a monarch because he likes to fight, and secondly, Svein doesn't understand what Athena, the little girl, is thinking about, so both sides are speculating, both sides are hesitating, and the rift in Noxus is also quietly appearing, until there is a serious plot later.
After Svein left, Darius caught up with the limping Svein and asked: "Commander, you have fought many battles, and you know much more about the battlefield than others, Your Majesty has lived in the court for a long time, and you don't know the reason for it, why don't you explain it carefully to Your Majesty, and let him wait for Demacia to fight and defeat both of us." β
Svein sighed and said: "I don't want to bother to say anything, now the Seven Martial Seas are becoming more and more arrogant, who doesn't know that they are His Majesty's henchmen, even if they are arrogant outside, they are some newcomers who don't understand anything in the court, I don't know where they got the courage, oh yes, the armament or something must be prepared, don't cram, you know?"
Darius nodded: "The pioneer thing, so many colleagues just now want to go, do you see if it..."
