Chapter 297: It's Not Fair
"What do you mean by that?"
Kay doesn't quite understand that if the kingdom of Lopez had hole cards, it would still be in this chaotic situation, and would Prince Phil go out of his way to seek help from other races?
"Don't you think it's strange that the Kingdom of Lopez is known as the most powerful military force in the north, but it is scattered by these small countries?"
Jason didn't answer, and sat down in front of them and asked softly.
Except Hassan. All of them looked at a loss, as if they had never thought about this, how could Lopez, who could suppress the northern countries and not raise their heads, be so vulnerable.
"Because Phil has no right to mobilize the troops stationed in the hinterland of the kingdom, have you all forgotten what I said before?"
Jason had to remind them that the 1st Heavy Armor Regiment of Lopez, which was deterring the north, was still stationed near the royal city of Sloven.
"However, they still need to protect the royal city, how can they easily kill the north?" Kai asked softly.
"But did I mention that Lopez doesn't have any other army similar to the First Heavy Armor?" Jason said with a smile.
Cayton choked as if he ...... Not really.
"Hassan, tell them about it, Lopez has been the strongest military force in hundreds of years. Jason sighed and said to Hassan.
It's a pity that except for the first and second, the five heavy armored legions of the Lopez Kingdom have already made it clear to him that they support him, otherwise they can still fight for it.
"Yes, sir. ”
He stood up and saluted Jason, then turned to face the others, and after seeing that everyone was looking at him, he organized his words a little before he spoke softly: "In addition to the five heavy armored legions, there are two legions in the kingdom of Lopez that are not weaker than them in the slightest, but their reputation is not obvious. ”
"No matter how famous we are, it's impossible for us not to hear any rumors, right?"
Ranmarok frowned, although he came to this world relatively late, he was not uninquired about and understood everything.
"But they do exist, and that's one of the reasons why the Southern Empire is reluctant to fight with the kingdom of Lopez, but the headache is that they only follow the king's orders. ”
"Where are they now?"
Leonidas asked, if the distance was too far, they would have enough time to prepare if the two armies wanted to use troops against the north.
"I don't know. ”
Hassan spread his hands with a helpless expression, such two legions of black crows did not find their station at all, but found their clues in some modern war documents.
For example, a few decades ago, they broke the White Pine Forest Fortress of the Dolan Kingdom, forcing the Dolan Kingdom to cede land and sue for peace, and obtained the land of the two provinces to the west of the kingdom.
If it weren't for Jason's affirmation that they hadn't been disbanded, and that he had seen their captains in the palace when he was a child, Hassan would have thought that the establishment of these two legions would have disappeared long ago.
"My concern is that Phil is already secretly dominating these two legions, after all, he has a much stronger advantage than me in the royal city, and now he has the help of the hundred clans. ”
When it comes to the hundred tribes, Jason is a little resentful, the hundred races and humans have always been enemies, he actually dares to accept the help of the hundred tribes, isn't this leading the wolf into the house?
Maybe in the end, Phil himself and the entire Lopez people will be in a quagmire.
Thinking of this, Jason suddenly found a reasonable excuse for himself to be his enemy, all for the sake of Lopez's centuries-old inheritance!
"So, now do you understand why I've been slowly eroding the power of the North and haven't done it directly?" he asked, looking at Kay.
"I see, sir. ”
Kai nodded immediately, and then returned to his seat, there were so many more things in this world that people couldn't figure out than in their previous lives.
Seeing him return to his seat, Jason sighed secretly in his heart, if it was the world in his previous life, how could the two barracks of tens of thousands of soldiers be so hidden.
In the final analysis, it is the crows who are too inefficient in collecting intelligence and information, because they do not have the convenient communication of the previous life, and the technology of the past as a support.
To be able to get to this point, the Crows have brought Jason enough surprises, even if they are still a little lacking, but this cannot hide their contribution to the Iron Fang Collar.
It's a pity that they can only live in the shadows, and even when they appear in front of everyone, they borrow other identities to cover up.
"In this way, send a letter to the head of the province of Hierro, I need him to cooperate with us in our actions at that time, and if he does not agree, I will charge him with being a thief, and ...... else"
Jason thought for a moment, swept his gaze over the faces of everyone present, lingered on Ranmaroke's body for a moment, and then turned to Leonidas.
Then he lowered his head and thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Forget it, we'll discuss the rest later, now Hassan informs Zora to start being vigilant about the reaction of Slovin's side immediately, if there is any accident, we have a chance to react, everyone go back." ”
"Do you have any concerns?"
Everyone stood up and saluted and left, but Ranmaroch stayed alone, and when the crowd dispersed, he bowed his head and asked.
"Why do you ask?" asked Jason, glancing at him.
"I noticed the look in my lord's eyes just now. ”
Ranmarok said very straightforwardly, with a serious expression: "You must have concerns about me, is it because my ability is not enough?"
Speaking of this, he was a little emotional, which was a humiliation and denial of his chivalry.
"Of course not, where did you think of it?" Jason smiled dumbly, shaking his head to soothe him.
"Then why don't adults entrust me with important responsibilities, I still have a lot of confidence in my ability. ”
He said with some disbelief: "I don't think I'm weaker than Lancelot and Gareth. ”
Normally he wouldn't say such a thing, but he was idle for too long, and Jason would only send him out when facing some people who were not weak, and the rest of the time he left him on the castle's side.
"That's exactly what I'm worried about. Jason looked him in the eye and whispered.
“......”
Ranmarok wasn't stupid either, and he immediately guessed Jason's concerns when he heard Jason say that, so he fell silent.
After a while, he finally looked up and looked at Jason steadfastly, "It's not fair, my lord, and I think your concerns are completely unnecessary. ”
