Time passed little by little in this back and forth, but the battle on the battlefield of Verne never stopped, and the large-scale sweep of the Mount of the Verne battlefield was also going on little by little. The Isaac guerrillas, who had not been able to press smoothly, simply hid completely and played hide and seek with those people. And the soldiers of Verne also received orders from above, and groped slowly with great caution.

Emperor Hugo was very dissatisfied with Verne's misdeeds, he repeatedly reprimanded Emperor Verne, asking him to immediately deploy a serious illness for a large-scale purge, but Emperor Hugo, who had always looked at his face, Emperor Verne suddenly hardened this time, and he resolutely disagreed with the large-scale purge. thinks that in terms of the advantage of his own territory, even if he fights a war of attrition, he still has an advantage over the other party. After Valjean was denied several requests in a row, he began to realize that there seemed to be something wrong with his attitude, and his tone began to loosen. But the more this happened, the more the Emperor Verne felt that the words of the other party were full of conspiracy.

He thinks it's a trap.

Eventually, the Emperor of Verne made a decision.

He announced a reduction in the number of soldiers who were fighting, from the current one million to 700,000. Most of those 300,000 were some big food consumers, such as mountain giants and giant rhino knights. It was announced that Verne would fight Isaac's partisans with elite troops. Emperor Hugo was even more unhappy with this, but he did not make any further moves.

The Emperor of Verne already knew what he was supposed to do.

But he had to admit that he was adventurous.

One night, on the border of Isaac, three merchant-like men entered a small tavern, and the atmosphere in the tavern was very eerie, and the drinkers were all sitting and eating there, but none of them were drinking. The three of them entered the tavern and went straight upstairs, and the owner of the tavern had been busy at the bar without even lifting his eyelids.

After going upstairs, the three of them went directly to a room, and there were three people standing in it. One man, two girls.

"Good night, Empress of Isaac, Tina Asimov. Archduke Fernando, the Brilliant Grand Duke, and the brightest star next to the beautiful moonlight, Miss Luna. ”

The man in the middle spoke.

"Good night, please be seated. ”

Tina smiled and said lightly.

"Thank you. ”

Although he was annoyed by the other party's impoliteness, he knew that he was here to ask for help.

"We all know why I'm here, but I'm going to say it before I open my mouth. ”

The man said.

"Kane's business, it's none of my business. ”

-=-

By the time the three men left, it was already four o'clock in the morning. The drinkers below the tavern have changed their batch, but they are still eating with expressionless faces, and the tavern owner is still working there with expressionless faces.

"Your Majesty, today is too risky. ”

A man in black said in a deep voice as he left the tavern.

"I've always been adventurous, I know, but I also know that my adventurous spirit always brings me some good luck. When I signed my name, I knew I had made the right move today. ”

The man said.

"Moreover, the Isaacs are very smart, they know that a living Verne emperor is more useful than a dead Verne emperor. ”

The man lowered his hood, revealing the somewhat haggard face of the Emperor of Verne.

Sometime in the autumn. The Isaac guerrillas seem to have re-attacked the coalition forces, and the garrisons everywhere were attacked in some numbers. And it is clear that no one knows how these guerrillas managed to hide their main forces under such a large-scale purge and still attack their enemies with full energy.

And the Emperor Verne continued to gradually reduce their troops.

As a result, there was a phenomenon that the army of Isaac and the army of Verne together were not as large as Hugo's army on the entire Great Plains. And what's even more strange is that Hugo's army turned out to be just to see the play?

There are also some different voices within Hugo, after all, Hugo's frequent mistakes in diplomatic strategy in recent years have caused Hugo to fall into a very serious passivity. Seeing that the surrounding countries are developing, Hugo is still pushing himself out of the door of the treasure house. What people need now is not war, but money. The strategy of economic development is the most attractive for anyone, whether it is a common man or a businessman, and now the situation in Hugo is not optimistic.

At this time, a new batch of rumors flashed out, and some news began to spread in the aristocratic circles of various countries, saying that in fact, the assassins sent this time were Hugo's empire, and Valjean decided to drag another person into the water to face Isaac with him in order to save his international decline, and this was also a strategy for Hugo to weaken Verne, and they did not allow a strong competitor to appear in the world.

Reminiscent of what Hugo once did to the Three Kingdoms of Gray Longjiang, this dazzle is quite credible.

At first, this rumor was only circulated among the noblewomen of various countries, but it soon became an open secret in aristocratic circles. After all, Hugo was so active in helping Verne prepare for the war, and even Verne began to withdraw his troops, and Hugo still relied on Verne's territory to not leave, which is very interesting.

Isaac also temporarily halted his attacks on Verne's army, and both sides fell silent on the battlefield, which seemed to represent an attitude of Isaac. According to reliable sources, Isaac seems to be in secret contact with Verne, and for a while, things seem to have become confusing.

For this kind of thing, Hugo is naturally very dissatisfied, Emperor Hugo has repeatedly asked Verne to show the spirit of a great power, to drive Isaac out of his own land, and Verne although he paid lip service to deal with it, but he still went his own way, without any intention of exerting force on the battlefield, not only that, but they even further made Verne's army change the strategy of active offensive and began to defend in place.

Everything seems to have turned out to be wonderful.

"What do you mean by that?"

Valjean looked at the Emperor of Verne in front of him in a fit of rage, he couldn't believe that at this time he actually stopped and let those Isaac people toss in his own land?

"No, I just feel that now is not a good time for a large-scale attack, we need to put things in order and wait for the supplies in the rear to catch up, you know, there have been problems with domestic supplies lately, the Isaac guerrillas are constantly trying to attack our supplies, and they have caused a lot of losses, we need a safe plan. ”

Emperor Verne hastened to explain to the other party.

"We don't need a plan! wait until we get those dirt buns out of Verne, we have a plan, but not now, my brother, we have a lot of things to do, and we don't have time to wait for your plan!"

Valjean's head was almost resting on the head of the Emperor of Verne, and the foaming star in his mouth sprayed him in the face.

"But our supplies are about to keep up, and my commander-in-chief has told me that there have been many stops of supply for troops on the front line, and that my children are starving and fighting each other with sluggish weapons. ”

The Emperor Verne frowned, they were all emperors, Hugo was not much older than Verne, he was not qualified to speak to himself like this.

"Fighting is the only thing a warrior has to do, and they don't need to worry about anything else, with food, they can fight when they are fed, and without food they have to fight hungry!

Valjean said loudly.

-=-

"This bastard!"

Eventually, the Emperor of Verne agreed to renew the troops. When Valjean left, he cursed in his study. Hugo and Verne have always been like brothers, they have a similar language, similar cultural practices, and similar national conditions. The only difference is that one is on a plateau and the other is in the hills. They set up teleportation circles in each other's palaces, so that the two emperors could sit together as soon as possible to discuss state affairs.

In the hundreds of years since the establishment of these two countries, the emperor has changed one after another, but the friendship between the countries has never changed.

But now, it is clear, friendship can no longer satisfy the ambitions of that emperor.

"Your Majesty, this is all the information since the war with Isaac. ”

A woman with a plain appearance, but her eyes full of wisdom, came to the emperor's study with a thick amount of information, and locked them with her backhand. She is the emperor's confidant and the emperor's most trusted person.

"This includes our country's investment in the battlefield after the start of the war, the expenditure of the state treasury, and the amount of national reserves. Hugo's treasury expenditures, war reserves, losses, and, finally, the comparison with our country. ”

The woman whispered to the emperor.

Emperor Verne picked up the document and looked at it cursoryly.

"I won't look at it, tell me what we should do. ”

The Emperor of Verne tossed the documents aside and said to the woman with a sigh.

"It's hard to say. ”

The woman said.
