Chapter 163: Discussion

In the northern part of the Bretan Kingdom, after easily taking the Jade Pot City, the army under Meng Fan expanded to 130,000 horses, including the 60,000 French troops from the Jade Pot City.

According to the spies, King Maxim of Brettan sent all the 100,000 troops in the royal capital to the south to resist the invasion of the Helots, and now the Kingdom of Brettan has no spare troops to stop the French army in the north.

After the surrender of Jade Pot City, Meng Fan did not continue to lead his army south to invade the territory of the Bretan Kingdom, so why didn't Meng Fan take advantage of this great opportunity to plunder the land of the Bretan Kingdom? This is because Meng Fan has just received an important piece of information from the Gilgidian Kingdom.

A month ago, when Prince Warren was about to hold the enthronement ceremony, the late King Landry Pars's uncle, Duke Dulaika, suddenly raised the question of Prince Warren's identity, and that King Landry of Gilgia was physically defective and could not have offspring, so Prince Warren was not Landry's son.

Duke Dulaika obtained the support of the royal guard army and most of the royal ministers, after the Duke of Dulaika ordered the search for Prince Warren, the general of the royal army who happened to arrive in the royal capital, Ness, was entrusted by General Kurum to escort Queen Freya and Prince Warren into the territory of Ziyang City with 20,000 cavalry, and after Prince Warren fled the royal capital, Duke Dulaika finally accepted the advice of the royal ministers after repeated resignations, and became the twentieth monarch of the Kingdom of Gilgia in the royal capital Cangyun City.

Lewin Nolan, the lord of Ziyang City, sheltered his daughter and grandson, and Lewin rebuked Duke Dulaika for his brutal behavior of usurping the throne and seizing power, on the other hand, Duke Duraika, who had ascended the throne and prestige, ordered that Lewin, the lord of Ziyang City, and Ness, the general of the royal army, and others were identified as traitors, and Dulaika gathered 200,000 troops to prepare to go to Ziyang City in person to exterminate the rebels in the territory of Ziyang City.

In the west courtyard of the Jade Pot City Lord's Mansion, Meng Fan sat in the room with his subordinates Tiberius, Mar Saha, and Gruya.

"Lord Claude, Lord Norman of Jade Pot City came to inquire about me yesterday, Norman, he doesn't understand why Lord Claude didn't continue to lead your army south to conquer the lands of the Kingdom ......of Bretan," Tiberius began.

Meng Fan, who was sitting on the chair, took a slow sip of the teacup and didn't answer, "Chatter, I'm afraid Lord Claude's mind is in the Gilgia Kingdom now." Marsahar, who sat beside her, let out a hoarse laugh.

"Lord Claude, the Gilgidian Kingdom is a good thing for us, originally I was worried that after we led the Fran army to attack the Bretan Kingdom, the Gilgidian Kingdom would invade the Pyrian Kingdom from the west and contain us, but now it seems that the Gilgidian Kingdom has no effort to harass the Frank Kingdom. Tiberius said.

"Tiberius, do you think that Lewin, the Lord of Ziyang City, will be able to help his grandson regain the throne?" Meng Fan asked, putting down the teacup in his hand.

"This ...... I guess it's hard to do. Tiberius hesitated for a moment to reply, "There are only about 20,000 territorial troops in Ziyang City, and the royal general Ness stationed in Black Rock City chose to support Prince Warren, but even if Ness brought back 20,000 cavalry from Kurum, he only had 50,000 troops under his command, and the total army supporting Prince Warren was only 70,000 horses, and Dulaika had already recruited 200,000 troops to attack Ziyang City." ”

"Lord Claude, I heard that the lords of all parts of the Gilgidian Kingdom basically support Dulaika, and 100,000 horses among the 200,000 troops recruited by Dulaika this time are from the territory of the lords of the Gilgidian Kingdom. Gruya, who was sitting on the side, said.

"Hehe, these lords are all some wall grass, whoever has the most power will throw into the arms of whom, Duke Dulaika was originally a member of the royal family, and now Dulaika has occupied the royal capital and held an enthronement ceremony, the lords will definitely stand on the side of His Majesty the King...... Oh, by the way, Sisera, Lord of Dawn City, did he also take refuge in Dulaika?" Meng Fan suddenly remembered something and asked.

Located in the southwestern part of the Kingdom of Gilgias, the mother of Cicela, the lord of Dawn, the sister of Lewin, the lord of Purple Sun, and Léwin Nolan was the uncle of Cicela Miró.

"Dawn City has not yet made a statement, and Sisera has neither sent the territorial army to help Duraika, but also has not shown solidarity with Purple Sun City. Gruja replied.

"Well, it's a safe thing to do, Cicela is reluctant to send troops to help Dulaika deal with his uncle, but he doesn't dare to rush into the camp of supporting Prince Warren in this situation. Meng Fan touched his chin and said.

"But he's going to have to take sides after all, Lord Claude, no one can sway from side to side in a power struggle and survive for a long time. Tiberius said in a cold tone.

Looking at the three subordinates sitting in front of him, "Tiberius, Mar Saha, Gruya, how about we go and help Ziyang City?" Meng Fan said.

"Help Ziyang City?Lord Claude, now that the Bretan Kingdom is under enemy on three sides, there are no extra troops to stop us, our army can easily plunder the land of the Bretan Kingdom, why should it be mixed into the civil war of the Gilgidian Kingdom?" Tiberius said.

"That's right, Lord Claude, Dulaika has recruited 200,000 troops to attack Ziyang City, if we go to help Ziyang City, it will plunge us into the war of the Kingdom of Gilgias, and lose a great opportunity to invade the territory of the Kingdom of Bretan. Gruya also didn't agree with Meng Fan's idea.

"Tiberius, Grua, at this stage, we have indeed achieved great results in the invasion of the Kingdom of Bretan, and we may be able to take the capital of the King of Bretan all the way to the Rising Sun, but can we really hold these territories?" Meng Fan looked at Tiberius and Grua.

"Once we attack the Rising Sun, King Maxim of Bretan will definitely call up all his troops to defend the royal capital, and at that time, we may meet with the armies of the Kingdom of Armas and the Kingdom of Hilo under the Rising Sun. Meng Fan said.

The armies of the Kingdom of Bretan are all fending off the armies of the Kingdom of Armas and the Kingdom of Hilo, and if Maxim of the Kingdom of Bretan transfers back to the troops on the front line, then the armies of the Kingdom of Armas and the Kingdom of Heloh will undoubtedly attack the royal capital of Rising Sun.

"Why don't we just defend the territory in the area of Jade Pot City, and let the Kingdom of Armas and the Kingdom of Hilo go to fight against the Kingdom of Bretan? Both the Kingdom of Armas and the Kingdom of Hilo want to conquer the Kingdom of Brettan to the greatest extent, even if they defeat the army of the Kingdom of Bretan, the Kingdom of Armas and the Kingdom of Hilo may still have a battle of interests on the territory of the Kingdom of Bretan, no matter what the battlefield of the Kingdom of Bretan will become in the end, as long as we are stationed in the City of Jade Pot and do not move, it will not be affected by the war. Meng Fan said.

"Lord Claude, what benefits can you gain if you intervene in the civil war in the Kingdom of Gilgias?"

"Now that King Landry of Gilgia is dead, and Prince Warren, who has the right to inherit the throne, has been expelled from the royal capital by Dulaika, if I can help Prince Warren regain the throne, then I will be the biggest hero in this battle for the throne, the Gilgidian royal family will no longer regard me as a traitor, and we can also return to the Kingdom of Gilgias, the territory of Black Rock City, and the wealth will return to my hands again. Meng Fan looked at Tiberius sitting in front of him and said.
