Chapter 447: Conspiracy

Spacious and bright conference room, with maps of the south-central and southern countries of the continent of Guelinthia hanging on the walls. There were not many people in the conference room www.biquge.info Pen Fun Pavilion, including Lorlist, Shi Fatzi, Director Speer, and Director Kodan, who had just taken over from Hansk in charge of the rectification and construction of the entire Northland road traffic facilities. In addition, Reddy, Schward, and Genolio were also on the sidelines.

Targar and his two lieutenants were sorting through some papers, and after a while, Targar was standing in front of a map with a small thin stick.

"Since the Glass Wars, the Fort Business Alliance has annexed nine countries including the Kingdom of Trimber, not including the Duchy of Rum and the Duchy of Mebia, which have served on their own. In other words, the Union of Merchants suddenly became the largest country in the territory of the Gelinthia continent. At the same time, relations with various countries in the central and southern parts of the continent deteriorated sharply, trade routes were interrupted, and borders were blocked. Neighboring countries are wary of business alliances that become behemoths.

Four years ago, the Big Seven of the Business Alliance integrated the power of the newly expanded Business Alliance, re-established the law and business order, alleviated its internal contradictions, and once again turned its attention to the countries of the Central and Southern Regions. They hope to dispel the hostility that has spread across the country, ease relations, lift border blockades, and resume trade routes and trade. But the reaction of the countries around the world remained doubtful and skeptical, as the business alliance had become a great threat no less than that of the former Krisson Empire, and they did not believe in the promises of the merchants. ”

The small wooden stick in Tagar's hand pointed to the whole map of the Gelinthia continent hanging on the wall: "For more than three hundred years, the central and southern parts of the continent have been self-contained, and although the thirty-four countries in the central and southern regions have their own disputes, they can unite with the outside world, which is also their basis for fighting against the three great powers of the former Krisson Empire, the Romon Empire, and the Havistan Khanate.

From the perspective of geographical location, the southern confrontation against the Romon Empire and the Havistan Khanate is dominated by the Kingdom of Kailia and the Kingdom of Chigda, but the Kingdom of Chigeda has the Orimaref Mountains as the border with the Romon Empire, and there is the Madellis Xiongguan, so you can sit back and relax. In fact, the heavy responsibility of confronting the two great enemies of the Romon Empire and the Khanate of Havestan rested on the Kelia Kingdom.

The former Kingdom of Kylia had the Storm Sword Saint Kingdom, and was good at maintaining a delicate balance between the two powerful enemies, and at the same time, it also received strong support from the Seven Kingdoms, which led to the peace of nearly thirty years. For the two sworn enemies, the Empire of Romon and the Khanate of Haavistan, they could not sit idly by and watch their opponents annex the Kingdom of Kella, because once the Kingdom of Khelia fell, it would mean that his sworn enemies would have the opportunity to annex the rich kingdoms and principalities in the south-central region, and they themselves would be excluded. Under the rise of strength, the consequences are unimaginable.

It is not the folklore that the Kingdom of Kailia has a Storm Sword Saint that makes the Romon Empire and the Havistan Khanate dare not invade, you must know that these two powers also have a Sword Saint each. And it is said that the relationship between that Storm Sword Saint and the Kylia royal family is extremely bad. According to an insider, the Business Alliance has been doing the work of the Storm Swordsmaster for nearly seven years, and finally let the Storm Swordsman switch to the Business Alliance.

This is the truth of the destruction of the Kingdom of Kella, and the Empire of Romon and the Khanate of Havestan also tacitly divided the Kingdom of Kellia equally before they fought. The war between the two countries has been going on for almost three years, and both sides are exhausted, with the Empire of Romon having a slight advantage. However, it is known from the reports sent back by the spies who went to the Romon Empire that most of the nobles of the Romon Empire are now asking Emperor Romon XI to accept the good news and cease war with the Khanate of Havestan......

Because of the fall of the Kingdom of Kella, the Kingdom of Chigeda became a hope for future resistance to the invasion of the two great powers of the Empire of Romon and the Khanate of Havestan into the countries of the south-central part of the continent. The 34 countries of Central and South Africa are just a very loose foreign alliance, which can be divided into four or five factional forces, large and small.

For example, to the north, it is dominated by commercial alliances, plus more than a dozen countries against the former Krisson Empire, and in the south, it is led by the Kingdom of Kailia against the Romon Empire and the Khanate of Havestan. There are also two or three different national alliances in between. They intermarry each other, are intertwined, and have extremely complicated relationships. In order to resist foreign invasions, they can raise troops to help each other, and at the same time fight with neighboring countries for the ownership of a river or a hill......

At that time, the Krisson Empire fought fiercely for more than a hundred years to conquer the Falcan Hill Plain and the Commercial Alliance, in fact, it was not only a Fude Business Alliance that was fighting against the Krisson Empire, but the thirty-four countries in Central and South China, which was also the real reason why the Krisson Empire paid so much price and sacrifice to make the Business Alliance bow its head and submit.

But with the fall of the former Krisson Empire and the outbreak of civil war, the merchant alliance finally eliminated the threat from the north. A glass war has torn the face of the commercial alliance and its former allies, especially the commercial alliance brazenly annexed nine countries in the central and southern regions and became the largest country in the territory of the Gelinthia continent, in the eyes of the remaining twenty-four countries in the central and southern regions, the business alliance has become another Crisson empire full of ambitions for the countries in the central and southern parts of the continent. ”

Tagger took a document from a deputy's hand, and when he opened it, there was a three-year-old weekly Morant newspaper, with the headline "The Central and South Kingdom Coalition Army Invades Bravely, Three Hundred Garrison Soldiers Die Bravely!"

"This was the beginning of the war between the Commercial Alliance and the Central South Kingdom Coalition three years ago, and as this newspaper claimed, it was indeed the Central South Kingdom Coalition that invaded and sacked a garrison camp of the Commercial Alliance, and three hundred garrison soldiers were killed," said Tagger, waving the newspaper. At that time, we didn't think about it, the business alliance gathered 140,000 troops and more than 200,000 Central and South Kingdom coalition troops to confront each other for nearly a year, and it was very normal for peace talks to continue because of such a border conflict.

But this time I went to the city of Morente and learned something new from some insiders. There is a theory that three years ago, the coalition forces of the Central and South Kingdoms were not ready for war with the commercial alliance at all, and they only gathered the coalition army for self-protection. Because for the countries of Central and South China at that time, the business alliance had become a behemoth that they did not dare to offend. Two hundred thousand coalition troops were assembled just to gain their interests in negotiations. Under such circumstances, how could the alliance of the Central and Southern Kingdoms first attack the commercial alliance and then be defeated?

Interestingly, I found out that the unit that took the lead against the business alliance was sent by the Kingdom of Chigda, and after the outbreak of the war, the army of the Kingdom of Chigeda withdrew to the country in a rage under the pretext that it had been accused of being the first to do so. Here are a few very interesting points to note. The first is that the Tempest Sword Saint left the Kingdom of Kailia and joined the Business Alliance, and then the Kingdom of Kaili was divided equally by the Romon Empire and the Havestan Khanate.

The second is that the Empire of Romon and the Khanate of Haavistan fought immediately after the destruction of the Kingdom of Kalia, and it seemed that they would first decide the winner and then attack the wealthy countries in the south-central region.

The third is that after the fall of the Kingdom of Kella, then the Kingdom of Chigeda should take on the heavy responsibility of resisting the Romon Empire and the Khanate of Havestan, and become the new leader of the surrounding countries. The strange thing is that the Kingdom of Qigeda ignored the threat of the two powerful countries around it that had been beaten by a mountain of bloody corpses, and instead sent troops to the front line of confrontation with the Commercial Alliance, and also provoked a war between the Central and Southern Kingdom Coalition and the Commercial Alliance, and then withdrew its troops, and sat back and watched the counterattack of the Commercial Alliance to defeat the Central and Southern Kingdom Coalition Army.

Fourth, the Kingdom of Chigeda is the main fighting faction of the staunchest anti-commercial alliance among the twenty-four countries in Central and South China, but it has always been thunderous and rainy. Aside from the fact that a force had just been sent to provoke a war with the commercial alliance, there was little real support for the front. While the forces of the Commercial Alliance have defeated the coalition forces of the Central and Southern Kingdoms on the front line, the Kingdom of Chigeda has been blaming the coalition commanders on the front line for their incompetence and missteps.

As a result, more than a dozen countries around the Kingdom of Chigeda elected Grand Duke Fausta of the Kingdom of Chigeda as the commander and re-formed an alliance of 200,000 troops, which was equivalent to splitting the alliance when the twenty-four countries of Central and South China faced the great enemy of the commercial alliance. Personally, I think that the Kingdom of Chigeda has done more harm to the twenty-four countries of Central and South Africa than the attacks launched by the business alliances.

The fifth important point worthy of our attention is that after the Archduke Fusta reorganized the 200,000 coalition army, he has not only ignored the territory of the Chikde Chamber of Commerce, which is close to the commercial alliance, that is, the former Principality of Ulubaha, but also refused to send troops to support the front line under the pretext that he has not negotiated with the former Central South Kingdom coalition army that is fighting with the commercial alliance army......

From the map, we can clearly see that the territory of the Chikde Chamber of Commerce of the Commercial Alliance hangs outside the sphere of influence of the Commercial Alliance, and is separated from the Commercial Alliance by the Titanini Mountains occupied by the Dwarven Kingdom. It is also separated from the kingdom of Chigeda by only one kingdom and one grand duke. Grand Duke Fausta could have occupied the entire territory of the Chigda Chamber of Commerce first, but he just didn't take any action.

Whenever someone asked, Archduke Fausta always sighed, what coalition forces have not been reorganized, the combat power has not been strengthened, what is the wolf in front of the tiger and the tiger in the whole body, etc., this will remind the Romon Empire and the Havestan Khanate of the threat to the central south. In short, they are unwilling to attack the territory of the Chikde Chamber of Commerce, and the best way is to respond to changes and so on, which are published in the newspapers.

The sixth point is a coincidence, the merchant alliance seems to be very much in line with the actions of the Kingdom of Chigda, after occupying one kingdom and two principalities, the army of the merchant alliance stopped the pursuit of victory, only set up a simple line of defense, and then transferred the army to the territory of the Chikde Chamber of Commerce by sea, as if to defeat the newly formed alliance of the Central and Southern Kingdoms led by the Grand Duke of Fausta in one fell swoop.

The armies of the Business Alliance frequently attacked from the territory of the Chiked Chamber of Commerce, sweeping through the five countries around the Kingdom of Chigda. Archduke Fausta lived up to expectations, defeating the armies of the Merchant Alliance at the most dangerous moments of the situation, forcing the enemy to retreat to the territory of the Chikde Chamber of Commerce. It's just that in the process of this fierce battle, uninformed people forget the simplest truth.

That is, the current war situation is that the Kingdom of Chigeda has occupied these five countries all over the world, and the royal families and successors of these kingdoms and principalities have either died or disappeared because of the surprise attack by the army of the commercial alliance, these five countries have in fact become the trusteeship of the Kingdom of Chigeda, and the biggest possibility after the war is to be incorporated into the Kingdom of Chigeda.

The Merchant Alliance also lost a lot of troops in these battles, which is why the Kingdom of Chigda and the Commander of the Coalition Forces, Grand Duke Fausta, were not questioned. But when I investigated in the city of Morente, I found that the troops lost were not the main legions of the seven giants of the business alliance, they were basically the corps formed by the second-line chamber of commerce and some mercenary groups that participated in the war, and it is said that the army of the business alliance always allocates the place to these second-line troops after occupying a kingdom, and after they withdraw, the coalition army led by the Grand Duke of Fausta will immediately come to regain the lost territory......"

Tagar used a small wooden stick to point out the battlefield situation map of the distribution of the forces of the commercial alliance and the alliance of the Central and Southern Kingdoms: "Because of the above six points, we are very suspicious that this war is very likely to be a double play performed by the commercial alliance and the Kingdom of Chigeda, the purpose of which is to annex the rest of the countries in the central and southern parts of the continent. Perhaps after the war, the Kingdom of Chigeda will also become a huge country with a territory like the commercial alliance. At that time, the Kingdom of Chigeda, which has also become a great power, will not have to fear the two major threats of the Ramon Empire and the Khanate of Havestan around them. ”

This was the grand conspiracy that Tagger suspected, and the people in the room looked at each other as if they were hearing about the fantasy, which was a little too incredible. If this is the case, it means that the situation on the continent of Gelinthia will change dramatically. There will be several great powers in the central and southern regions, and after the integration of those kingdoms and principalities, there will be a situation in which several major powers will compete for hegemony on the mainland, and it will no longer be the Warring States era.

"Are the kings of the kingdoms of the south-central and the grand dukes of the principalities stupid asses and dead men?" said Director Speer to Targer.

"I guess there is, but I don't know. After all, it is too far away from our family, and Volibel's hand cannot reach those countries in the central and southern parts of the continent to grasp accurate information. However, as far as we know, in the middle of the game, it is impossible to distinguish the situation, and those kings and grand dukes are more interested in self-interest, intending to seek their own interests in this great war, and they do not expect that they are likely to be the next to be annexed.

We are outsiders, so we have doubts about such a strange battle situation and then collect intelligence and analyze to draw conclusions. However, the twenty-four countries of Central and South China are not without sober-minded people, I also went to the front line this time to the city of Morente, and was introduced to the eldest prince of the Kingdom of Jecano by Knight Renmed, this prince is a very smart person, and he also has doubts about the war situation and the Kingdom of Chigeda. He was captured by the Business Alliance and was seriously wounded because he went to follow a clue, but fortunately he was rescued by the Knight of Renmold.

Before I returned, the Grand Prince of the Kingdom of Jecano had already prepared to form an alliance with several countries around the world to protect himself, and they wanted to break away from the alliance of the Central and Southern Kingdoms under the command of the Grand Duke of Fausta and form an armed defense against the Commercial Alliance and the Kingdom of Chigeda. Perhaps they will also be forced to merge into a major force to continue the business alliance. The only pity is that there is no trade route with us in the Northland, and they are in great need of our family's armaments and supplies......," Targar replied.

Lorist stood up: "That's all for today, everyone has learned about the situation in the central and southern parts of the country through Tagger's report. After all, the war between the Business Alliance and the Coalition of the Indo-South Kingdom is too far away from our Northland, and even if it is a big conspiracy as reported by Tagger, it is still a distant matter whether it will have any impact on our family. I have always believed that as long as our family is strong, no matter what kind of storm we are, we will not be able to ......"

"Yes, Your Highness. ”
