Chapter 48: Above the Great Hall

The Imperial Palace, the Diligent Administration Palace, and the main hall rarely have a bit more solemn atmosphere.

The cause of the incident was that the Marquis of Jennings led nearly 40,000 remnants of Isaac to surrender yesterday, and the army had already reached the southwest of Gyeonggi.

Unlike General Tianlu, who brought Locke's army to vote a few days ago, Isaac's tens of thousands of people gave the Bright Empire a problem, and the ministers of the court and China were divided into two factions with opposite positions.

"Your Majesty, you must not accept these Isaac troops, they were forced to fall into desperation before they surrendered to us, their hearts are still on the side of Isaac, if they accept these people, it will be a big hidden danger to the defense of the imperial capital!"

"The words of the deputy capital commander are indeed true, Isaac and these warriors are indeed desperate to defect to the empire. If the Empire doesn't accept them, will the next step be to kill these people, or force them to surrender to the Sea Clan or the Norman army?" Craigie, the commander of the Imperial Southern Legion, quietly scolded Summererd, the Southern Legion had suffered a lot of losses in the battle with the Sea Clan army a few months ago, and it was the time to rush to replenish its troops.

Summerde was frozen for a moment, at this time, if he attacked the Isaac army, who was also a human warrior, it would definitely be a big disapproval of the world, and if he pushed these people back to the Sea Clan, he would shoot himself in the foot.

Prime Minister Gurnoro coughed lightly and slowly spoke, "Isaac's army is also a warrior of my Bright Empire, and it can't be turned away during the national crisis. The eastern, southern, and western legions of the empire all suffered considerable losses in the battle with the Sea Clan, and it happened to break up these warriors from Isaac and integrate them into the legions. The garrisons of each army were in the imperial capital of Gyeonggi, and presumably they would not pose any threat to the defense of the imperial capital. ”

Gurnoro is worthy of being a scheming man, and he solved the problem without offending anyone, and Arthur's previous calculations were about to fail.

At this moment, Grand Duke Amaya, who had not appeared for a long time due to serious injuries, suddenly stood up from the queue, "The prime minister's strategy is really good, although the three major legions of the empire have suffered a lot of losses, they have been replenished with a lot of new recruits in the past few months, and it will be seriously overnumbered if they are incorporated into Isaac warriors, not to mention that there are more than 40,000 people from the Rock Kingdom who are newly promoted, and these 40,000 people will also be broken up and reorganized?"

The ball was kicked back again, and the two factions quarreled, and the two sides finally had to look to the throne in the middle of the main hall. And the real decision-makers are actually behind the throne.

Emperor Grantham has never had any opinions, and he doesn't know how to deal with this dilemma.

"Just do it according to the Prime Minister's opinion, Locke's warriors are also scattered and organized into the three major legions. A graceful voice came from behind the throne.

"I don't think it's right. ”

Since the emperor had already spoken, if it was a normal matter, it would have finally been settled, but she didn't want Prince Gallah to suddenly speak.

"What does the prince think is wrong?"

"The Empress Dowager may not know very well that the full strength of the legion cannot exceed 100,000 is a rule set by the first emperor, in order to balance the military power and prevent the commanders of the major legions from supporting their own troops. If this red line is broken, I am afraid that in the future, there will be a corps commander with 200,000 or 300,000 troops under his command, laying a hidden danger for the stability of the empire!"

Prince Gallaher directly brought out the first Emperor of Light, and no one could refute it.

The empress was stunned for a moment before speaking, "Does the prince have a solution?"

"The war is raging on the Horo side, and Timothy has sent three letters to the Empire asking for help, and we have no troops to deploy before. Taking this opportunity, as long as 20,000 more Imperial private troops are transferred, a new legion can be mixed with the armies of Locke and Isaac. Both armies are veterans, and with a little rest and training, they can be sent to the north to support the Holo Kingdom. ”

Gallaher's method has long been carefully thought out and familiar, so that the empire has built a new legion, eliminated the hidden dangers of the imperial capital's defenses, and at the same time supported the Holo Kingdom, which can be described as killing three birds with one stone, and no one can raise an objection.

"It is very good, let it be done according to the Prince's advice. The emperor also agreed.

"There is one more thing, the Grand Duke of Amaya has recovered from his injuries, and the city guards are all unified or the Grand Duke himself has changed his name. ”

Prince Gallaher's words fell, and the atmosphere of slaughter in the hall became even stronger.

......

Sea Cliff City, the main hall of the palace, is also holding a palace discussion at the same time.

The faces of the Norman king Frans and the sea clan prime minister Lu Lan were not very optimistic, only the emperor Idil on the main seat had an expression of indifference.

"How is it that tens of thousands of allied troops have been killed and the generals have fallen in a pursuit battle with a huge disparity in strength?" asked Frans, frowning.

A military minister immediately came out to report, "The detailed battle report has been sent back to the military headquarters, and it is said that several dark mages have suddenly appeared, not only able to manipulate the corpses of soldiers killed in battle, but also summon a large number of hellish monsters. The soldiers of the two armies had never seen the hellish monsters, and the panic spread, the combat power was sharply reduced, and the main generals of the two armies died and fled, which led to the crushing defeat of this battle. ”

"Dark mages at war?" this piece of information obviously exceeded Frans's expectations, and he immediately showed a strange expression.

Lu Lan knew even less about the Terran dark mage, and looked at Frans inquiringly.

Dark mages have always been circulated among the people as anecdotes, and official important information is rarely mentioned or paid attention to, and even Frans, the king of a country, does not know how to explain it.

"Prime Minister Lu Lan doesn't know about the dark magicians of my human race? No one expected Idir to open his mouth with a smile.

Chiro had been hiding beside him back then, and had personally experienced the outbreak of necromantic creatures in the royal hunting grounds, and there was probably no one in the entire hall who knew the dark mage better than Idil. Since the Royal Hunting Grounds, Idir has paid special attention to the situation of dark mages over the years, and has collected a lot of relevant information.

When Idir finished telling the situation of the several dark mage families he had mastered, Lu Lan's face became even more solemn.

"It seems that the power of the dark mages is far beyond the expectations of the outside world, and now that they are also involved in this war, I am afraid that the future war will be even more difficult!"

Frans took the opportunity to answer: "Since the Church of Light entered the war, we have changed from offensive to defensive on the battlefield, and if the second group of troops does not land again, the situation will continue to deteriorate, and the land we have fought before may be difficult to hold. ”

Lu Lan waved his hand, "The reinforcements have to wait a little longer, this time to break the seal, the most important goal of the Sea King is not to occupy the land of the Terran and take revenge on the tribes on the continent, but for that big event, a large number of Sea Clan troops will not be able to withdraw." What we need to do now is to harvest as much as possible from the occupied area and lay the groundwork for that big thing in Aquaman. ”

At the mention of that great event, Frans wisely did not continue, but only nodded.

His Royal Highness's Minister of Military Aircraft suddenly spoke again, "In this battle, the sea general Mo Luosi fell unexpectedly, and some soldiers reported that a blue enchantress condensed on the battlefield. ”

At the mention of the blue enchantress, Lu Lan looked at Frans with a strange expression......
