Chapter 9 Wanting to Stop the War
"Your Majesty, which piece of land are you going to give to Walls?"
"Well, I haven't thought about it yet, why are you asking about this?" King Ragnar said curiously, and he also felt very strange that Hurudeyar was in such a hurry
"Walls has already done so much credit to the Nord Kingdom, his credit is immeasurable, I think he should be given the largest city, of course, Paraven will definitely not be able to give him.
I think the city of Suno is good, after all, the most powerful guardian in the city of Suno was killed by Hosbans. I don't think it's too much to give him this city. ”
"Okay, okay, I'll have my own plans, do you have anything else?" King Ragnar waved his hand and said to Rudyar in front of him.
Rudyar saw that King Ragnar could no longer listen to his words, so he did not continue to wreak havoc with King Ragnar. He hurriedly retreated.
But halfway through, he turned his body around again.
"I think Your Majesty should still be careful about the relationship between Tuayar and Walls, if the two of them form an alliance, I think it will be very disadvantageous to Your Majesty."
Rudjar finished saying this sentence before he took his leave. Nor did King Ragnar give Rudyar a definite answer. But he slowly closed his eyes.
After thinking about the pattern happening around me, I felt that there was still no need to continue to meddle. King Ragnar doesn't know what kind of ambition he has for such an outstanding person as Gut, and no one knows what his personality and character are.
In such a situation, Ragnar did not know what to do next, and perhaps after tonight, he would get the answer he wanted.
By the time the next day came, Walls had arrived at King Ragnar's council, where everything was, and Walls had made up his mind to become a lord under King Ragnar.
Put the decision to want King Ragnar to be allegiance. Only if you want King Ragnar to be loyal can you get a fief ten, and before that, no king on the continent of Calradia had granted a fief to a nobleman who was not loyal to him. The nobles mentioned here are only nobles who can get fiefs, and ordinary commoners are not eligible for fiefs. Unless they can make enough achievements in the war to settle the other nobles who are talking nonsense.
"You've declared your allegiance to me, and I'm glad to have someone like you."
Walls' allegiance made King Ragnar very happy, all this was expected, but King Ragnar was still very happy, and the lords next to him also thought that this was expected, Walls had enough military exploits, which could not be matched by ordinary money, only hereditary fiefdoms could be worthy of these military exploits.
Then the next thing naturally came to pass, and Ragra Light began to announce the fiefdom granted to Walls. It was a surprise to everyone present, but it made sense when you thought about it.
The entire city of Suno was given to Walls, as were the villages of Šuno.
Such a reward really made the lords on the side salivate, and they all sighed why such a good thing didn't come to their heads? But if you think about it carefully, if it weren't for Walter's shrewd command, there would be no such military exploits like him, and there would be no such fiefdom.
Therefore, none of the lords present raised any objections, and a smile appeared on the corner of Rudyar's mouth, it seems that King Ragnar has done what he wants, of course, he will never dare to say to anyone that this is what he meant, after all, it is about the prestige of King Ragnar. If Rudjar's idea had been adopted by King Ragnar, it would probably have been seen as Rudyar's prestige above that of King LaGrange, which was completely different from adopting the strategy of the strategists.
Therefore, Rudyar quietly closed his mouth, put this matter in his heart and secretly smiled.
When Walls first heard the news, he was overjoyed, and it was a great reward, though it was a great reward.
But it couldn't suppress the impulse in his own heart, and that feeling of excitement emanated from the inside out. But in full view, Walls naturally had to behave more decently, and his overly excited actions naturally did not show it, and his companions were also very excited at this moment.
As a nobleman, Alleyne was supposed to inherit the land, but it was taken away by others, which was the last thing he wanted to see, and after he followed Walls, he was naturally very excited to see that the person he followed received such a reward. I dream that I will be able to get a piece of my own territory at some point in the future.
Then, in the midst of everyone's astonishment, King Ragnar assigned Walls another task.
"Walls, you got a city as your territory at a young age, this is indeed not something that an ordinary person can do, and actually saying that you can do such a thing also fully shows that your ability is far above ordinary people, although you are a down-and-out nobleman, but I still give you the reward you deserve.
And now I have an important task for you, and this task is very simple, it is for you to convey our goodwill to our ally, King Griffos, the ruler of the kingdom of Rhodok, to the south, and that our relationship will be closer. King Ragnar said his next policy straightforwardly, and those lords with sufficient political experience could easily see what King Ragnar was thinking now, and it was obvious that he wanted to continue to unite the kingdom of Rhodok.
Of course, the Nord Kingdom now has two targets, one is the Kingdom of Virgia to the west of the Nord Kingdom, and the other is the Kugit Khanate to the southeast of the Nord Kingdom, and one of these two countries will definitely be attacked by the Nord Kingdom.
And for a guy like Walls, who has a lot of tactical experience but not enough political experience, he didn't think about the meaning behind King Ragnar's move for a while.
After he said this, Tuyar already knew what King Ragnar was going to do next, and Tuyar could already clearly judge that King Ragnar's next move was to start advancing westward, and the Kingdom of Virginia was the next object to be annexed.
At this moment, everyone has their own thoughts, and Walls also has his own thoughts, but he is still in the process of surprise, and perhaps after he grows up and experiences more things, such a reward will not cause any waves in his heart.
But before that, he had a variety of ideas in his mind to build his own territory, although it was said that this was the territory of the Swadia Kingdom before, but after a long war, the people here are eager for peace, and Walls has many ideas that he wants to put into practice.
Time passed quickly, and the next day, Walls began to get ready to get up, and last night, he was thinking not about meeting King Grievous of the kingdom of Rhodok, but about how to build his own territory. For a newcomer like him, it is inevitable that he will be a little excited to get his own territory for the first time.
However, Walls, who had Lorimer by his side, soon woke up from the excitement, and Lorimer quickly made it clear to him what he should do. The first task was, of course, to complete the task given to him by King Ragnar. After all, this is his own king, all the last time came from King Ragnar, if you don't serve King Ragnar well, you will suffer in the end.
After King Graves conquered Hookshall, he led his own troops back to the kingdom of Rhodoc, and while the lords of the whole country were gathered in Viruga, King Griffos held a small banquet for Luke, and the Earl of Rayland, as the lord of the city, was naturally willing to undertake this obligation. The whole country was jubilant, and the people of Rhodok, who had been deceived, thought that their enemies had been destroyed, and that the treacherous kingdom of Swadia had been wiped out by the great King Grievos, so that there would be no enemies in the future, and these ordinary people thought that the war was over, but that they would never have imagined that something would happen, and that all the people were longing for peace, but the struggle for power and intrigue between the nobles would never let peace come.
Walls and his party traveled lightly with only a small retinue, so they moved very quickly, and Rudjar was obviously a little uneasy about Wall's mission, and he asked King Ragnar to bring a diplomatic envoy with him with a lot of diplomatic experience. But at Ragnar's special behest.
An ordinary diplomat he had carefully selected, in the eyes of King Ragnar, would backfire if he gave King Greyforth enough face at this time, which was not what King Ragnar wanted to see.
Peters did not make any judgment about such an approach by King Ragnar.
He didn't say a word, just waited for King Ragnar's orders. He watched quietly like a bystander, and there was a certain reason for him to look at it this way, after all, Peters couldn't accurately grasp the current character of King Griffos.
Although Peters is a wise man who sits at home and hears the world's affairs, Peters does not know the character of King Grievos and the voice of the current Rhodok people, and before that, he devoted all his energy to how to destroy the Svadia Kingdom. As for the kingdom of Rhodok in the south, she didn't study it at all.
And the next target of the Nord Kingdom is the Virgian Kingdom to the west of the Nord Kingdom, if the Virginia Kingdom is broken by the Nord Kingdom, the hegemony of the Nord Kingdom will not be shaken. Therefore, such a strategic objective was extremely important, and Peters did not spare any energy to study the kingdom of Rhodok to the south, and according to King Ragnar and himself, in any case, the Rhodok kingdom did not have a reason to go to war with the kingdom of Nord.
Therefore, they all thought that there was nothing wrong with this rainy morning in the Rhodok Kingdom, but at the same time, it was because of this that they gave others a chance to take advantage of it.
This opportunity is not to say others, but to say that from the southernmost part of the continent, the master of the cruel desert region, the Salander Sultanate, they did not send troops to the continent when they were fighting for hegemony, so when the Kugit Khanate, the Nord Kingdom, the Virgia Kingdom, the Rhodok Kingdom, and the Swadia Kingdom.
When these five countries are fighting for power in the center of the continent, the Salander Sultanate is just watching from the sidelines, although they only own the desert area, but they still have a rich treasury living in the desert area, and they are also thinking about how to occupy the center of the continent all the time, the desert area is a cruel area after all, even if there are precious spices, just like cheap pottery, the Salander Sultanate is still not satisfied. After formulating a series of guidelines, the Sultan of Hakim sent his own emissaries to the master of the hill lands, King Grifus of the kingdom of Rhodok. On that day, the messenger arrived just in time for a celebration in the city of Viruga.
Francine was an emissary sent by the Sultan of Hakim of the Sultanate of Salander because of his extraordinary talents, even as a woman, who was promoted to an emissary on an exceptional basis. At the moment when the Sultanate of Salander caused a thunderous impulse, no one could have imagined that at this moment, the Sultan of Hakim would actually entrust such an important task to a woman.
"King Griffos, on behalf of the Sultan of Hakim, the Sultanate of Salander, extend my highest greetings to you."
Francine said to the king above the high hall in her feminine tone, at this time the lords gathered all over the country had already arrived at this feast, in front of everyone, Francine was wearing a black scarf, and everyone could not see her face, judging by her posture, these lords tacitly believed that the accused woman was definitely a girl with outstanding appearance.
In the continent of Calradia, the status of women is relatively low, and to be able to send a woman as an envoy to other countries, this woman must definitely have extraordinary talents. Although some of the Zhongwei lords are very dissatisfied with this woman, and they look down on women, there are still some lords who are very curious about this woman.
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm no longer surprised by your etiquette, so tell me, what is the reason why the Hakim Sultan of the Salander Sultanate sent you here this time, I can't believe that the master of a country would inexplicably send an envoy to my country to greet me, and besides, there was no intersection between our two countries before, what is your Sultanate going to do?" King Griffos was evidently in a very good mood for the feast, and before he had seen the envoy of the Sultanate he might have sent him away with a single word. They simply won't let their messengers say a word more.
"Hakim Sultan is probably already holding a banquet with Ni Zang at this time, and I can plan a thing for you, which can be said to be related to the future of the entire Rhodok Kingdom."
"So what the hell is going on?" King Griffos suddenly became interested.
"You mean, I'm joining forces with Sultan Hakim?" The drum does not need a heavy hammer, King Grey Heads has already reacted at this time, or he has already guessed it, this is also very normal, King Grey Heads knows that his people want to stop the war, because in the eyes of his own people, the invaders have been eliminated, then these things should be ended, the war is the most harmful to his country, but now it seems that King Grey Heads does not want to stop this war, because he wants to become an emperor through the ages.
So he had to expand.
So he had to lie once again to deceive his people, motivate them, and then make them follow him to defeat the Nord kingdom.
"So, Your Majesty, are you moved?" Francine seems to be very perceptive, he can see at a glance what King Griffivus is thinking now, she wants to complete the things that Sultan Hakim gave him, so at this time, her heart is very happy, but on the surface, she still does not show any excitement, keeping her expression unchanged, it is her specialty, otherwise, she will not be valued by Sultan Hakim.
"I still have to discuss it with the lords of Hakim." King Grey Forge knew that these lords were all heroes who followed him, and if he wanted to fight, he had to have a good relationship with these people, if he didn't do so, causing them to betray him, then it would mean that his plan would be bankrupt, and King Grey Heads at this time had now given his lord enough face.
But at this moment, everyone is looking at each other, the reason is naturally very simple, no one would have thought that at this time, just after the end of the war, the messenger of the Sultan of Hakim came out, which was really sudden, and they all thought that this was not a good idea, and now the war should be stopped temporarily, so that they did not know what to do at all.
However, there is no shortage of staunch supporters of the king in any country, and the lords who have a strong support for King Grey Heads stood up at this time, and they seem to have guessed through Grey Lives' thoughts abroad, and they have come out to say that they should unite with the Sultan of Hakim.
However, there are still some lords who still haven't reacted at this time, and in their opinion, they should wait for their strength to recover now, rather than fighting again.
"It's actually a very simple thing, I'm here to be at this time, you know, the situation on the mainland is very complicated, but it's very simple." Francine said.
"So how simple is it, and how complicated is it." King Griffois was clearly interested.
"Isn't it a complication that there are constant disputes on the continent now, and all kinds of forces are emerging one after another? And now the biggest force on the continent has been formed. Francine said with a bit of nonsense, but King Greyfus was clearly interested.
He himself smiled secretly in his heart at this statement, yes, he seemed to have guessed the meaning of Hakim Sultan.
"The biggest force is the Nord kingdom that has annexed the Swadia kingdom, although my king is far to the south, he is still well aware of the situation on the mainland, and the Hakim Sultan knows that the Nord kingdom will inevitably become the next threat to the Rhodok kingdom." Francine continued in his seductive voice, though there was still a bit of coldness in her voice. But it still made everyone present want to see her face.
"Well, yes, if the Nord Kingdom comes to invade my country like the Swadia Kingdom, then how are they different from the original Svadia Kingdom? I had to be careful. "King Griffos seems to be talking to himself, but in reality, he is speaking to his men, and this is to get the attention of his men.
But that's it, there is still a group of young lords who don't speak, for them, this is simply a fantasy, after all, at the beginning, they were still their combat allies, but now, how can they become their enemies?
King Graves shook his head when he saw the doubtful gazes of his young lords, and sighed, they were so simple, they were still too young, and if they had matured a little more, they would have known that these things were supposed to happen.
The sinister nature of the human heart erupted at this time.
A former ally will become an enemy in the next second, and that's the rule formed on this continent.
"So, King Griffos, now the Nord Kingdom is the most powerful, you must know that this country has annexed the Svadia Kingdom, so in the next second, they may extend their minions to the Rhodok Kingdom.
So you need a determined ally to fight the Nord kingdom together. Francine continued, and by this point everyone seemed to have understood what Francine had come to for.
"You mean, I'm joining forces with Sultan Hakim?" The drum does not need a heavy hammer, King Graves has already reacted at this time, or he has already guessed it, this is also very normal, King Graves knows that his people want to stop the war.
