A prince with a poetic temperament and a natural statesman, Munadi asked the question of his interest without a trace, squinting his eyes and sipping the wine in his glass, waiting for Liang Ke's reply. Although Liang Ke was not a natural politician, he also knew what a sensitive topic was, he shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said helplessly: "Your Royal Highness, you may not believe it, the demons ran out of the abyss purely occasionally, they followed the enemy to my doorstep, and they wanted to take the opportunity to return to the mainland, which led to this war."www.biquge.info I just singled out with others once, and I was lucky enough to scare those demons, and the ten gold warehouses were gone. ”

Liang Ke picked and chosen, and briefly summarized the dispute with the demons, his own solution and process, the speaker was indifferent, but the audience felt thrilled, and their awe of Liang Ke was deeper.

"In fact, the origin of war is the competition for resources. From disputes between aristocratic territories to minerals and fertile land, to national wars, they fight for population and living space. Mr. Aragon discovered their existential problems in time, and relied on cooperation to help them solve the problem, which snuffed out the wire of war, and the southern frontier could obtain a rare period of peaceful development in the future, but the empire would always have an enemy to watch. ”

"Oh, my sister doesn't believe in the promises of the demons, it is said that although the demons are warlike and murderous, they take promises very seriously, so they probably won't joke about such promises!"

Hearing her sister's analysis, the young Bing Nati was a little confused. My sister loves this studious brother very much, and she gently pinched the cold night rain on her chest and slowly explained to her brother.

"We can think in terms of a few things. First of all, fundamentally, human nature is greedy, when we are facing the pressure of survival, the land is a resource that must be obtained, but once the demons gain a foothold in the new territory, they will envy the richer life of their neighbors, then they will ignite the war again, the target may be his new neighbor Night Elves, or it may still be our continent, humanity is not extinguished, and war will always exist. I analyze, this peace time window will not be too long, because the demons do not have high requirements for their homes, they will not build the city as majestic and comfortable as us, as long as they can shelter from the wind and rain, so, their construction speed will be very fast, after the happiness of this new home, the physical fitness of the demons will also return to the original level, they will not be able to withstand the temptation of the outside world, and start a war with their swords.

Regarding the promise of the demons, I think it is impossible for any mature politician to believe in the promise of the enemy, only our force is a contract that can be relied on. ”

At this point, Annabelle turned to a young officer and said earnestly, "Jones! The military department should consider whether to send more troops to Lancer Bay to strengthen the defense against demons, and moderately show military power to deter opponents is also the key means of maintaining peace. Of course, on the surface, it must be to protect the security of the countries and nobles of all races in the Jincang Territory, and not to intensify the contradictions. ”

The officer, Jones, a staff officer at the Imperial Army, felt that Annabelle's strategy was too conservative and said what he thought.

"Now that we know their ambitions, we can just take advantage of their weakness and send troops to destroy them directly! ”

Annabelle shook her head slightly after hearing this, she looked at Liang Ke, Liang Ke knew that it was time to speak by himself at this time, he organized his language a little, and said in a solemn tone: "We must clearly understand that even if the demons are quite weak, the quality of their individual soldiers still surpasses that of our soldiers, and this is the fairness of the gods." Annabelle had seen my troll guards, the best of them known as 'Zhexian', who were nearly two and a half meters tall and had six well-coordinated arms, making them natural swordsmen. Practice has proved that our team of ordinary spearmen can't hold out in front of them for a minute, the key is that the Du Lutai family of the demon clan, there are hundreds of such six-armed trolls, not to mention the four-armed ordinary trolls. ”

Liang Ke saw that the young officer was unimpressed, and he continued: "Let me give you another example, when I first arrived in the magic capital, I was once attacked by a fat woman in a scrubber shop. Don't laugh, it looks like it's just a fat woman. Just such an ordinary woman, with her open mouth the size of the door of my house, the attraction coming from her mouth almost sucked me and my guards into her stomach, but fortunately, someone rescued her in time, otherwise the consequences are really unimaginable. Later I found out that she was actually a devourer. I say this just to tell you that the demons are different from us, although their population is not large, but any one of them may be monsters with special skills, and it is not wise to talk about war until we know them. ”

Annabelle nodded to Liang Ke and thanked him for his support.

"I agree with Monsieur Aragon that in order to defeat the enemy, it is necessary to first understand the weaknesses of the opponent and then use this period of peace to increase the strength of the army. The second method that Jones just mentioned, regardless of the feelings of the Night Elves, if we really block their path of hope, it will only force the demons to make a comeback now, but are our army and country really ready?"

In the face of Annabelle's questioning, Jones began to think seriously, and Annabelle said to His Royal Highness the Great Prince, who was listening carefully: "Brother Munadi! In my opinion, on the one hand, we should increase military spending, especially the allocation of armaments, which is the key to making up for the gap between us and our opponents; on the other hand, can we consider increasing investment in the development of Jincang, which has become a free trade port that attracts the attention of the whole continent, and now there are many dignitaries and dignitaries, and villas are rising from the ground, the more powerful people there, the more stable the southern frontier of our empire, when the time is ripe, Mr. Aragon can invite the representatives of the demon clan to your territory, and let them understand that Jincang is a hedgehog who looks at the meat whirring, but who moves and who his handsand then give long-term benefits to those members of parliament who have a say, both threats and inducements, and they will naturally act as lobbyists for us and minimize the possibility of war. ”

When it comes to government affairs, Annabelle is like a different person, talking eloquently, with the brilliance of wisdom shining in her eyes, Munadi snorted, and secretly rejoiced in her heart, thanks to this sister who was born in her uncle's family, if it was her own sister, maybe Gallant would have a queen next.

In Liang Ke's mind, the impression of Annabelle is arrogant and cold, in fact, he is becoming more and more unclear about how this impression was established, perhaps subjectively branded her as her sister, thinking that all women in the royal family are the same. However, this exchange made him reacquainted with this beautiful and noble girl, it turned out that the royal family is not all arrogant straw bales like Cergus, well-educated, coupled with political sensitivity that goes deep into the bone marrow, and a little experience in the actual environment, the children of the royal family can easily become qualified politicians. Liang Ke completely understood this time, "the second generation of officials, the second generation of red, and the second generation of rich" all have their own innate truths.

Seeing Liang Ke bowing her head and pondering, Annabelle didn't seem to listen to herself, her expression darkened, and she leaned into Liang Ke's ear and asked softly, "Did I say something wrong and make you laugh." ”

Liang Ke looked at this girl seriously for the first time, because Annabelle lowered her head, Liang Ke could only see her long soft golden hair as smooth as satin, the short hair in front of her forehead naturally hung down over her eyebrows, covering half of her pink cheeks, and most of her long hair was tied high behind her head by a crimson ribbon, and the ends of her hair were slightly curled and hung down to her shoulders, looking beautiful and elegant. A smooth forehead, crystal clear and delicate ears, and a delicate face are almost the standard example of the beauty of the Gironte girl. Liang Ke could feel her nervousness from the two tufts of long eyelashes that kept flickering and the small nose that expanded from time to time. He quickly withdrew his gaze and replied seriously: "No, you are very right, I am inspired. It seems that I have thought things simple, and I have always thought that if the survival of the demons is solved, they will coexist peacefully with us, and I have overlooked a key issue. ”

"What?" Annabelle immediately returned to her state just now, she raised her face and asked Liang Ke eagerly.

Different nations and countries have different characteristics due to the influence of history and culture. Just like the Night Elves, people who don't know this people think that they are some conspirators who hide in the shadows and play tricks, but after contact, I know that on the contrary, they are the most peace-loving people in the world, and in order to avoid war, they are even willing to migrate to the kind of dark places that do not see the light of day. In fact, they are strong in force, have many allies, and are not afraid of any opponent, but they never choose war, this is their character, gentle and peaceful. The demons are different, they are brave and fearless, they like to solve problems in the most direct way, even if they are so weak, they still dare to start a war, let alone let them regain their former strength. Especially the Demon Emperor Dura, he is ruthless and cruel, and he does things recklessly, such a monarch is easily encouraged by the radicals to start a war, so I must also prepare early. ”

Seeing Liang Ke's solemn face, Annabelle was faintly worried in her heart, she pulled Liang Ke to the corner of the cloister, and said worriedly: "The location of your fief is very dangerous, there are invincible sea clans in the south, demons in the west, and narrow Lancer Bay in the east, and only the Shanka Gobi in the north is barren and open. Through this demon incident, you should be able to see clearly that once the demons invade, it will take at least seven days from Jincang to send a warning signal to the imperial reinforcements to the front line, the main reason is that Jincang is too small to garrison too many troops, and the environment of Shanka is harsh, and it is impossible to garrison troops. After the reinforcements arrive, it is likely that they will choose to abandon Jincang, directly hold the mountain pass path between Shanka and Jincang, and use our ordnance advantage to start a positional battle with the demons. So, do you want me to talk to Your Majesty and adjust the location of the fiefdom? ”

"Thank you, Miss Annabelle, for your kindness. Liang Ke sincerely thanked the girl for thinking about her own safety, but then shook his head and rejected her kindness.

"It's a home that I've built with my companions, and I'm not going to give up until I have to. ”

"But ......"

Liang Ke saw that Annabelle was still not at ease, and he immediately explained: "I will take the strategy of active defense, in fact, Jincang is not alone, the dwarves of the hills of Narondo are our staunch allies, and the dwarf master will continue to provide Jincang with the most advanced weapons, at this point, you also need to cooperate with the prince to make it clear to His Royal Highness that Aragorn is only to defend against the demons in the west, and the sword will never point to the north." In addition, the Sea Clan is also willing to provide the necessary help to Jincang, after all, all members of the royal family have villas in Jincang, and they live in my territory for half of the year. The most important thing is that the Demon Clan's neighbor, the Night Elves, is also an ally, otherwise this time it will not be easy to solve the Demon Clan's problem. The Dark Night Clan's Treants will report the Demons' every move to us at any time, and I believe that through long-term observation, I will gradually understand the weaknesses of the Demons, and at the same time, I will also ask the Night Clan to give them the necessary strategic containment, if they dare to leave the lair, I will smash their supply base first. ”

Everyone has their own secrets, and Annabelle didn't ask Liang Ke about the source of his confidence. Liang Ke leaned on the railing, looked sideways at the little lilies that were about to bloom under the porch, and continued after a slight pause: "Your wisdom really surprises me, I will follow your suggestion and slowly wear down the fighting will of the demon clan with material enjoyment, at least so that those parliamentarians who have the right to speak can enjoy the sunshine and food, this kind of assimilation and disintegration of the national character is the most powerful means of attack." ”

The praise of the sweetheart is always more intoxicating than the precious jewelry, Annabelle gently stroked the night rain under her neck with both hands, sat on the bench by the railing, facing Liang Ke, but turned to look at the budding lily, and said leisurely: "A girl, no matter how great the wisdom is, what is the use?"

What Annabelle says is true, this is a typical patriarchal society, and women want to show their intellectual brilliance unless they think of themselves as a man, like Susanna, and sacrifice all their happiness. Liang Ke rubbed his sour nose with his hand and did not answer.

"Whether it is the common people or the royal goddess, in fact, the ultimate happiness is the same, and it is enough to have a lover who understands each other and treats each other sincerely for a lifetime. ”

Annabelle's next words made Liang Ke's heart skip a beat, it seems that this still hasn't given up her illusions about herself, which is in line with the character of the woman of the Gallant family. How dare Liang Ke answer, he coughed lightly, tidied up his cuffs, and said with a smile: "Bing Nati seems to be calling us, Miss Annabelle, let's go back!"

Liang Ke made a gesture of please, but Annabelle didn't get up, she looked at Liang Ke's eyes fixedly and asked, "If I ask you that question now, how will you answer?"

Liang Ke was about to turn around and leave, but he had to stop when he heard Annabelle ask him.

"What?

"If, without my father's orders, you will protect me?"

Liang Ke nodded and replied, "I have answered this question before, and I will protect you." ”

"It's like...... It's like protecting Ramboer?"

"This ......"

Liang Ke didn't expect Annabelle to ask so directly, and he began to hesitate for a while. It was such a small pause that also made Annabelle capture hope, she was afraid that the next sentence would be Liang Ke's ruthless refusal, so she quickly stood up and walked out.

"You're right, my brother is calling us!"

Annabelle walked quickly, and by the time Liang Ke reacted, she had already returned to Munadi, and Liang Ke followed closely, but of course it was not suitable to continue the topic in front of people. Liang Ke didn't know what it was like in his heart, he held the wine glass depressedly, and didn't care if he knew it or not, he didn't refuse to come in the face of the noble lords who toasted, and soon drank his memory away, Kekeba helped him into the carriage before his boss talked nonsense, and when he got home, Liang Ke had already fallen asleep, but fortunately, Prague was strong enough to easily get Liang Ke into the bedroom.
