Chapter 610: The State of the Federation
"Your Excellency Lu Xi, Your Excellency Su Mu, Your Excellency Lei Hao, and the commander of the Contemptible Blade Forest Corps, Titus, have just arrived at this fortress with the vanguard cavalry regiment this morning to support. The rest of the troops will be gradually reached within two days, and the current garrison of the fortress will be temporarily maintained by the cavalry regiment. ”
The commander of the Blade Forest Corps named Titus is undoubtedly the kind of typical officer that everyone is familiar with.
Not only does he have an extremely good cultivation realm, but he also has an extremely strong physique, and he is not humble or arrogant in front of a strong person like Lu Xi.
After seeing Su Mu and Lu Xi return, Lei Hao naturally introduced Titus to Su Mu and the others for the first time.
And now Titus himself, naturally, also expressed his respect for Su Mu and the others unsubtly as soon as he saw Su Mu and the others.
After all, the current fortress is indeed a vital part of the Federation.
The standing strength of this fortress alone is already equivalent to one-third of the entire strength of the entire Blood Moon Clan, which is actually enough to see the importance of this fortress.
However, even so, the Federation finally ignored the possibility of the Papal States colluding with the rest of the races to attack the Abyssal Frontier because of the simultaneous war between the northern and southern fronts of the Papal States.
In the past few days, if it weren't for the sudden return of Su Mu and his party.
The door of the Federation has actually been completely opened.
......
"As you know, the top troops of the Federation are the four major legions named after the Wind Forest Volcano. The regular garrison troops, both in terms of equipment and quality, are slightly weaker than the four major corps. ”
"However, the attack launched by the Papal States half a month ago directly penetrated the territory of the two countries of the adjacent federation and completely blocked the two oases of the two countries. ”
"Therefore, in such a situation, the military high-level who did not consider the deeper possibilities in advance at that time, and could only hurriedly dispatch the four major corps piled up on the periphery of the abyss to the border of the two countries. This gave those Blood Moon Elves who had fallen to the Papal States the possibility of taking the opportunity to sneak up on the Abyss Fortress. ”
As a federal soldier, he had to rely on the efforts of Su Mu and a few people to defend the Federation.
This is obviously a disgrace for Titus.
Therefore, after simply explaining the strength of the troops to Su Mu and a few people, Titus was also very frank and direct, and he revealed the lack of consideration of the four major corps.
However, for this, Su Mu and the others didn't mind at all.
After all, this conspiracy of the Papal States was actually carried out as early as the beginning of the exploration of the Abyss.
Even the genius cadets of the continental civilization were equally unaware of the true intentions of the Papal States, let alone the federal military, who knew less information.
So after Tate's serious remarks, Su Mu instead asked about the situation within the federation:
"Although in the days since we returned, we have tried to pass on the information we know back to the top of the Federation. However, we don't know much about the current state of the federation. If you can, please let us know the most 'true' state of affairs in the Federation. ”
Regarding the current situation of the Federation, within a few days of Su Mu and the others' return, there were naturally countless messages coming, and Su Mu and the others probably knew a vague outline.
Whether it is the preparations and judgments of the Speaker's residence, or the faint cooperation between the Empire and the Federation, or even the turmoil among the top echelons of the Federation.
Su Mu and the others probably have the least understanding of everything.
But the only thing is that no one dares to speak nonsense just through ordinary information channels.
"We have to know...... What kind of deal did the Supreme Council, or the Medici family, make with the Papal States that started the war?"
......
I have to say that the question raised by Su Mu is actually extremely sharp and difficult to answer.
After all, the entire administrative system of the federation is actually deeply buried in the figure of the Medici family, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the Medici family can be said to be the meridian of the federation.
But as the ambitions of the Papal States were revealed, and with the astonishing information brought back by Su Mu and others.
Regarding the origin of the elven bloodline of the Drake family, it is actually so clear.
If they were to say that they had nothing to do with the Papal States, even a fool would not believe it.
So what Su Mu really cares about now is actually ...... Are the most important meridians of the Confederation involved in the ambitions of the Papal States?
Fortunately, Titus's answer is not the worst of all:
"For now, at least, the Medici family does have collusion with the Papal States, but they do not seem to know the true purpose of the Papal States. Whether it was the conspiracy of the Abyss Trip or the sudden continental war, it was all outside the control of the Medici family, and none of the Papal States confessed to them. ”
"So the current situation is that the Medici family knows that they can't clear their suspicions, and has taken the initiative to give up the supreme dominance of the Federation. In the name of the Supreme Council, the current federation was defined as a state of war, and the supreme power of the federation was openly handed over to the Speaker's office. ”
But this immediately raises a second big problem. Without the Medici family as the dominant meridian, the internal structure of the Federation has become less cohesive. ”
That is to say...... In fact, today's federation has entered a state of war, and the speed of administrative transmission is even lower than normal. If it weren't for the fact that the war still hadn't reached the Union itself, even this drawback would have been more obvious. ”
Titus said this, and there was obviously a hint of dissatisfaction and resentment in his tone.
After all, no matter how much the Medici family knows, and how cautious their attitude is now...... But if it weren't for their unbridled ambitions, the situation in the Union would not be so worrying.
"Although the matter has come to this day, in fact, most people are also vaguely speculating...... The Drake family was a poisonous fruit deliberately planted by the Papal States. The Papal States also wanted to disturb the internal environment of the Federation, so they deliberately tempted the Medici family to become their 'allies'. ”
"But no matter what, the previous actions of the Medici family have finally put the Federation in the current predicament. And as far as we can see, this situation will not be easily resolved. ”
"Today's Federation is like a drunken giant. In the eyes of outsiders, though, the Confederation is still a great force to stop the aspirations of the Papal States. But only the upper echelons of the Federation themselves know that the drunken giants are simply unable to unleash a full thump, nor can they defend themselves against the beasts that are close in front of them. ”
"So what we have to do is at least until the federal government is completely back to being efficient...... With the results of the year-round training of the four major legions, the beasts are temporarily unable to pose enough threats to the giants themselves!"
