The so-called "meeting" is to determine who will command the combat operation and the number of corps to be dispatched by each side.

It stands to reason that it was Curia who initiated the initiative, and it should be Curia as the commander. In addition, Kuriya is Kutum's heir, and other war kings have long recognized his inheritance, and the troops are all war kings who were originally subordinate to Kutum, so it can be said that it is reasonable for Kuria to serve as the commander. It's a pity that after the seven top war kings intervened and Lombardo personally acted as an intermediary, it was obviously impossible for Kuria to command this combat operation. As for the other war kings, they are even less qualified to make irresponsible remarks with Lombardo. It's just that on the issue of sending troops, Lombardo's attitude is also very clear. The area under Kutum's jurisdiction was invaded, and even if Kutum was dead, Kutum's men should send troops to destroy the enemy. As for the other top battle kings, at most they only provide assistance and support.

After the meeting began, Lombardo made it clear that he was willing to provide a fleet to support Curia and other kings to send troops to destroy the invading enemy, but would not send legions to participate in the battle, and Curia and other warlords would have to send legions. In addition, Lombardo also made a guarantee on behalf of all the top war kings that the top war kings, including him, would never launch an offensive operation against Curia and other war kings until they had destroyed the invading enemy.

In fact, the key is not to send troops, nor who commands them.

To put it bluntly, it was Kutum's jurisdiction that was invaded, and even if Lombardo and other top war kings did not come forward, Kuria, who was originally subordinate to Kutum, would send troops to recover the lost territory. Lombardokken's offer to mobilize the fleet to provide support and assistance is already very good. As for who commands the battle, it's actually not a big problem, because no matter who it is, the war kings who send troops to participate in the war are still in their own positions. The reason is that before the dust settles on the inheritance. No Warlord will surrender his legions. Even if an agreement is reached, a joint battle is decided, and a commander is chosen, these warlords will have reservations and will never let someone else take command of their own legions.

What these war kings care about is actually inheritance.

Arguably. That's why they're willing to come here and sit with Curia and Lombardo.

At the time of the proposal, Kuria clearly mentioned that the succession was determined by this war, that is, the king who made the greatest contribution in the war was eligible to inherit the mantle of Kutum. It was precisely because of this that those war kings responded to the initiative and came here to discuss with Kuria about sending troops to fight. It's just that before discussing the matter, these war kings made it clear. The question of inheritance must be determined.

Actually, herein lies the problem.

If you send troops together, and fight together, how do you determine who will contribute more? When the time comes, that is, a word from the commander. Even if it's not Kuria who is the commander, but Lombardo, not all warlords believe that Lombardo can uphold justice. Besides, even if Lombardo is fair. It is also difficult to determine the contribution of each war king, so it is impossible to determine the right of succession.

After the start of the meeting. This question became the main topic.

After all the kings had taken their stands, Lombardo proposed a solution, that is, the kings who were willing to send troops to the war would take turns to attack, and whoever knocked down the ruins of the fortress captured by the enemy and destroyed all the invading enemies would inherit the mantle of Kutum.

This is indeed an effective solution. It's just that a new question arises from this, that is, the order of sending troops.

Because all the war kings already knew that it was only the vanguard of the human expeditionary force that arrived, with a total of more than 10,000 people, and they occupied a ruin. There is no fleet support, and there is no fortress that can be defended, so in the eyes of these war kings, it is not a problem to destroy this human army at all, maybe the first war king to send troops will be able to return triumphantly, and there will be no chance for other war kings to send troops at all.

Obviously, no war king wants to miss this opportunity.

In the end, it was Lombardo who came up with the solution, which was to decide the order of troops by drawing lots.

Since there was no better solution, and the matter of sending troops had to be decided, all the war kings, including Curia, accepted Lombardo's proposal.

The result of the draw is actually not much suspense, Curia did not draw the upper draw, but it is not very bad, ranking third. In addition, the two war kings in front of him were not very strong. In Curia's words, even if these two war kings send out all the legions in their hands, even if they fight together, they may not be able to win. Besides, Yang Yi obviously won't give the inheritance to these two guys.

Although Lombardo warmly asked Curia and other war kings to stay and participate in the banquet held by him personally, none of the war kings felt the need for this.

After the last question had been determined, that is, the timing of the troops, the meeting was closed.

Back on the battleship in Curia, Yang Yi and others took off their "helmets".

"What now?"

"Perhaps, there's no need to deal with those guys anymore."

Curia was slightly stunned and looked at Yang Yi incomprehensibly.

"Although there are only more than 10,000 officers and soldiers in the vanguard, all of them are soldiers, and the two war kings before you are not very good, we are sure enough to hold the fortress. When it's your turn to attack, we'll abandon the fortress and withdraw the Greenwich Meteorite Belt, and you'll be able to claim the inheritance. Yang Yi paused slightly, and then said, "At that time, no one will be able to make irresponsible remarks about you, even if the War Emperor comes forward, the credit you have made cannot be erased." When you sit in the position of the top war king, we will enter the Northern Alpha system. Even if you need to face an opponent like Lombardo, with your help, you are sure to win. ”

"It's not that simple."

"Really?"

Curia nodded slightly and said, "Grace and Jotun, that is, those two war kings have a very close relationship with Lombardo. Although there is no conclusive evidence, there is enough reason to believe that they have taken refuge in Lombardo, or at least some kind of agreement with Lombardo. Otherwise, they wouldn't have drawn first and second. Although their strength is not very good, but with Lombardo's support, they must not be underestimated. In order to secure the inheritance of one of them, Lombardo may even take matters into his own hands. Even in order not to be suspicious of other top war kings, Lombardo will not do it himself, but will send a fleet to help them build a fortress. ”

Yang Yi frowned, thinking seriously about Curia's words.

"Actually, as long as Lombard is willing to help, you will definitely not be able to hold the fortress. Without the fortress, the vanguard of the Human Expeditionary Force had to withdraw to the Greenwich Meteorite Belt. When the time comes, even if the vanguard of the human expeditionary force is not eliminated, they will become the heirs of Kutum. ”

"You're right, one fleet is enough."

As soon as Yang Yi said this, Curia fell silent.

"Of course, the situation is not as bad as you say." Yang Yi smiled reluctantly and said, "Even if those two guys have already defected to Lombardo, only one can inherit Kutum's mantle and become the new top war king." Obviously, neither of them wants to be the other. What's more, Lombardo supports them, obviously not to make them the new top war kings, but to use them against you. ”

"You mean ......"

"Lombardo is both supporting them and taking advantage of them. Now, the tide has turned, and Lombardo will surely make the most of the opportunity. ”

"How?"

"Choose between the two of them, and the one who is chosen, even if he becomes the new top king one day in the future, will listen to Lombardo's orders. To put it simply, Lombardo will use this opportunity to prop up a top-tier warrior who is absolutely obedient to him. ”

"This ......"

"Of course, what Lombardo will do, I don't know. Only one thing is certain, only one of them will survive to the end of the battle. ”

Kuria nodded slightly, indicating that she understood what Yang Yi meant.

"Obviously, this is also our chance, at least we can take out a potential competitor. If you can find an opportunity, you may be able to gain even more. ”

"What chance?"

"Quite simply, Lombardo will never let you lead the Silicon Legion to attack, so you must win the first two attacks. If we can hold the fortress and take out the two leading kings, how will Lombardo deal with it? Of course, he would never let such a thing happen. It's just a pity that those two guys are a wreck, at least for me. In this way, if Lombardo wants to grasp the overall situation, he has to go out himself, and he has to face us directly. Yang Yi smiled faintly and said, "No matter how powerful Lombardo is, he will not be much stronger than Kutum, at most it will be on par with Kutum." Maybe we'll be able to take this opportunity to take out a top champion. ”

"Kill Lombardo?"

Yang Yi nodded, indicating that this was what he meant.

Curia looked at Yang Yi in surprise, and said after a while: "He is not Kutum, not as arrogant as Kutum." Even if he goes out in person, he may not be able to fight you, and it is more likely that he will send a fleet to directly destroy the fortress and eliminate the human officers and soldiers in the fortress. ”

"The premise is that he gives up those two war kings."

Curia was slightly stunned and looked at Yang Yi incomprehensibly.

"Don't forget, whoever destroys the invading enemy inherits the mantle of Kutum. If Lombardo's fleet achieves the final victory, will Lombardo inherit Kutum's mantle? Obviously, don't say that you war kings won't agree, and other top war kings won't agree either. If Lombardo really wants to do this, he will become the target of public criticism. In my opinion of him, he's not stupid enough to be that stupid. ”

"This ......"

Yang Yi smiled faintly and didn't explain more.

Kuria also understood that in the millions of miles of history of the Silicon Charm Alliance, there had never been a top-level war king who had two titles at the same time. Not to mention that there is a war emperor above the top war king, even if there is none, Di Babu and other top war kings will not watch Lombardo sit big. Obviously, no matter how powerful Lombardo is, he will not confront the six top war kings, and he will not directly intervene in this war that will determine Kutum's succession. (To be continued.) )
