readx;? Chapter 650 Connecting the Two Countries

The Duchy of Auckland and the Duchy of West Asia are both principalities that Meng Han began to attack before the accident, and the Duchy of Naga was already in the pockets of the Duchy of Transance before Meng Han went to the Dark Empire of the Light Empire, but he has never attacked the Duchy of Auckland and the Duchy of West Asia.

Annexing a principality is not such a simple matter, even after the superficial annexation, there are many follow-up things that need to be dealt with. At home and abroad, nobles and commoners, military officials, territories, people's livelihood and territory, there are thousands of things, which can simply keep Catherine's feet busy.

Fortunately, some time ago, Catherine had cultivated enough henchmen and officials enough to be able to quickly stabilize the situation and quickly control the Principality of Naga after receiving the Principality of Naga.

Among them, in order to stabilize the minds of a large number of nobles, Catherine even pardoned the crimes of the Marquis of Anthony and gave him the same treatment as a marquis. With the exception of the Grand Duke, everyone else could be acquitted as long as they pledged allegiance to Catherine. This move was welcomed by the entire aristocratic circle of the Principality of Naga, and there was not much trouble except for the number of certain interests.

Moreover, the army of the Duchy of Transland was overwhelming, and the people were under the low eaves, and the Duchy of Naga had to accept all this seemingly calmly. All the armies were broken up and reorganized, and then a few policies that could quickly improve the living standards of the common people were put down, so that the people who had just recovered from the war immediately became supporters of Archduke Catherine.

After calmly taking over the Duchy of Naga, Catherine began to put pressure on the Duchy of Auckland again. The Principality of Auckland is Amanda's homeland, but after being secretly arranged by the alchemist Angus for more than ten years, almost all important departments and officials are controlled, and Catherine almost did not spend the slightest force to grasp this network.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this achievement in the Duchy of Auckland that Angus felt that controlling the Golden City was so simple, so he took the risk to come to the Golden City in person

But in any case, this network is in Catherine's hands, coupled with Amanda's influence, and soon, without the knowledge of the Grand Duke of Auckland, the actual controller of the duchy has been replaced by Catherine, but it is not clearly shown. Next was the duel between Meng Han and the president of the Wizards' Guild, and Catherine also put down this part and began to pay attention to Meng Han.

The Magicians' Guild surrendered to Meng Han, and the world was shocked, and the appearance of the new magic city gave Catherine one more means to buy the nobles. Owning a piece of land in the Golden City or the Enchanted New City was the dream of countless nobles, and after receiving this promise from Archduke Catherine, no one but the new Grand Duke of Auckland thought that the country was in the hands of the Grand Duke.

If these people were forced to obey Archduke Catherine because of Angus's methods, then now they are completely conscious and willing to join the Duchy of Transes, without any second thoughts. No one would be at odds with the gold coins, and no one would be stupid enough to go against the Golden City Lord who had just destroyed the head of the Wizards' Guild and taken control of the entire Wizards' Guild.

Everything was arranged on Meng Han's side, and Grand Duke Catherine's side also started to do it immediately. The whole operation was very simple, and His Majesty, the Grand Duke, who had not been in office for a few years, was escorted to the Megalith Castle in a daze. And the Duchy of Auckland, overnight, played the banner of the Auckland Province of the Duchy of Transes, and at the same time, almost more than ninety percent of the nobles declared their allegiance to His Majesty the Archduke Catherine.

As soon as the news came out, none of the people of the entire Principality of Auckland objected, and all of them happily cheered to join the nationality of the Principality of Transland. You must know that after joining the Duchy of Milan and the Duchy of Naga, the living standards of the people of the Duchy of Milan have risen rapidly, almost more than twice as much as their original life, and even better than their life in the precarious Duchy of Auckland. Joining the Duchy of Transance means a better life and a more stable environment, and who wouldn't want to?

The people's hearts are back, which is vividly reflected at this moment. Surrender from top to bottom, this is something that the new Grand Duke could never have imagined in any way. Even when he woke up from his slumber at Boulder Castle, he had no idea what had happened.

The unlucky guy, in order to get the position of the Grand Duke of the Duchy, even did not hesitate to murder Princess Amanda, and did not hesitate to use the power of Angus to murder His Majesty the original Grand Duke, but now he has been directly reduced to a prisoner, and no one has come forward to intercede for him.

"He's Amanda's, send him to the Golden City and let Amanda dispose of it" These were the only things His Majesty Catherine said after seeing him, and then His Majesty just waved his hand very easily, didn't say anything more, and turned away. Even the Grand Duke of Auckland's pleas for mercy and allegiance ignored him, and did not give him any chance at all.

It was after Amanda got the news that she happily came to Meng Han to tell him the good news. After Meng Han learned what happened, he was also very happy for Catherine and Amanda. It seems that the two daughters have their own place, Catherine gets the Duchy of Auckland, and Amanda gets her father's killer, and they are both happy.

However, although Catherine had already said that Amanda would dispose of the Archduke of Auckland, Amanda was still waiting for Meng Han's orders with great anticipation. The smart Amanda understands that everything she has now is given by Meng Han, so no matter what it is, she has to ask Meng Han's consent.

"The Grand Duke of Auckland is yours, whatever you want" Meng Han's words were almost no different from Catherine's. But Amanda's attitude gave Meng Han an indescribable sense of satisfaction. A noble princess of the principality, who may have needed him to look up to in her previous life, now needs his nod to do what she should be able to do, this feeling is not an ordinary sense of conquest.

The Principality of Auckland has also been acquired, and the territory of the Principality of Transland has become extremely large, but there is a weakness, that is, the Principality of West Asia. The Principality of Auckland borders the Principality of Naga and the Principality of Western Asia at the same time, and although the territory is now connected, it is a long and narrow strip, and there is no horizontal depth at all in terms of strategy. In Meng Han's opinion, since he had already taken the Principality of Auckland, there was no need for the Principality of West Asia to stay.

In the letter sent by Catherine, this concern was also clearly expressed, and Meng Han was asked how to act next. Meng Han did not delay, and directly called Grace Alice and Amanda to discuss together. Now the affairs of the Golden City are basically discussed by the three daughters and Meng Han together.

The principality of West Asia is also in Grace's calculations, and this principality, which disdains Meng Han's weapons, has long been disturbed by the means arranged by Grace. A grand duke who has succeeded to the throne, a successor who has not succeeded to the throne, one is the government of the principality, one is a rebel army, one uses weapons produced by his own country, one uses weapons sponsored by the Golden City, one uses the treasury of the principality, and the other is supported by large arms dealers, and the two sides are inseparable.

"How many of us are there in the West Asian rebels, can we control the scene?" Meng Han asked this question after learning about the situation in the West Asian Principality with Grace.

"In fact, all but the nominal leaders of the West Asian rebels are our people. Grace laughed slyly: "City Guard recruits, ninjas, underground guilds, and finally our mercenaries, as well as many magicians, are all our people. As you said, Tony, our fighters need to gain experience in actual combat, and new weapons need to be tested in real combat. And, Tony, you said, that's what the arms dealers do. "Grace is in charge of the political and military affairs of the Golden City, and she is in charge of these things.

Meng Han didn't expect this to be the case, let alone that Grace actually regarded his words as a golden rule, and implemented them so thoroughly, which made Meng Han suddenly feel guilty. Is it true that the weapons of the Golden City are so bad that they cannot be sold? Do you need to control and support a rebel army to fight against the legitimate government?

This thought just flashed in Meng Han's mind, and disappeared without a trace immediately. In any case, the Duchy of West Asia will soon be incorporated into the Duchy of Transus, and there is no point in investigating the cause.

"Can the war be controlled?" Meng Han asked again.

"The deputy commander of the West Asian government army is our man. Grace said calmly, but there was a sense of accomplishment that could not be concealed: "The war can end at any time, and you can win whichever side you want." In addition, the Duchy of Western Asia and the Duchy of Naga once had a city with a territorial dispute, which is now occupied by the Duchy of Transes, and can be attacked by government forces at any time if needed, providing an excuse for the Duchy to intervene. "Once upon a time, Grace Alice was just a pair of poor twins struggling to survive, but now they can decide the rise and fall of a duchy with a joke.

"Then let the government army attack" Meng Han nodded without hesitation and issued an order: "The rest, leave it to Catherine." If the leader of the rebels does not know the times, let him be accidentally eliminated by the government forces. If you know the current affairs, let him come to the Golden City and give him a manor. ā€

Deciding the fate of the Principality of Western Asia, Meng Han calculated the time, but found that another year had passed. The two businesses of the Empire of Light and the Empire of Darkness have begun to reach the harvest season.

"Alice, prepare two large caravans, all equipped with flying wagons. Thinking of this, Meng Han began to instruct Alice: "We need to open the trade routes of the Empire of Light and the Empire of Darkness."

"Yes, my lord," Alice replied cheerfully, and a golden light flashed in her eyes, as if she had seen a large pile of gold coins
