Chapter XIII The Situation on the Mainland
In just three months, there were three more emperors on the Brattis continent in one go, which made many people dumbfounded.
And then the trio also fought around Lionheart, in which Allister was menacing with the Monteverde family and the Church of Life.
Born in the Lancelot family, Conley has always had the upper hand, with the help of the surviving Winged Clan and the two-headed dragon, as well as the support of the new nobles.
Claudio is a little weaker of the three, and the princes of the woodland have fought their own territory, and they are also the most capable group of nobles in the empire, but they have lost a lot of people in the battle against dragons and elves before.
Later, the reconquest of the woodland and the attack on the Eterocarpus Forest killed another group of warriors, and now they are outnumbered.
However, as the war continued, Claudio became the most popular party, and the nobles who came to him were almost equal to the other two families combined.
Claudio's handsome looks and charisma certainly played a part in this, but it was mainly due to the second son league behind him.
This mysterious organization has gradually surfaced along with the battle for the throne on the continent of Bratis, and its activities have become more and more frequent, although the identity of the alliance leader behind it is still a mystery.
In addition to the constant war in the vicinity of the Red Plains, the three parties are also actively fighting for land elsewhere.
Most of the Red Plains, Elk Valley, and the New Land were swallowed by Conley, and Allister was given two towns in the New Land in addition to the North and the newly occupied Crescent.
Claudio now controls the woodlands, and the area around the Emerald Forest and the Trihald River, the three forces have basically divided up the land that can be divided nearby.
So he set his sights further afield - the Golden Valley and the West, the only two lands in the west of the empire that are still "ownerless".
However, it is said that there is no owner, and the situation in the Westland and the Golden Valley is different.
When Solomon led his army of Winged to Brattis, he was invincible, losing the only battle he had in the West, and not only did he lose almost all of his troops, but he himself died there.
Although Lanita later concealed the news of his death for a while, claiming that he was only seriously injured, Solomon did not show up for a whole year, and after a long time, everyone basically knew what was going on.
In addition, the attitude of those Wing people has changed 180 degrees, not only giving up the plan to conquer Brattis, but also taking the initiative to support mainland natives like Conley and the Lancelot family, and choosing to retreat into the background.
If Solomon had been around, he would not have allowed such a thing to happen.
As the hero who defeated Solomon and those Wing Clan armies and saved the West, and even the entire continent, although Ilea has not yet claimed to be the new master of the West, all the nobles of the Westside have regarded her as a feudal king.
Whether it is Allister, Claudio, or even Conley, they all want to win her over, because as long as they get Ilea, they will be supported by the entire West, but Ilea has not expressed her position for a long time.
In contrast, the situation in the Golden Valley is much more complicated, more like a microcosm of the situation on the mainland.
The Campbells have lost their wise head and their territory.
Couple Lilania and Pippo have been recruiting for the past year in an attempt to regain their family's lost ground, but it hasn't been easy.
In addition to the obstruction of those new aristocrats, there was also competition from their own people.
The Black Hand Adra is Lilania's uncle, and after Theodore's death, he went to the north to join Allister, and volunteered to submit to the latter.
It wasn't long before he returned to the Golden Valley, flying the banners of the Campbells and the Vespasian families, and fighting with Lilania for Theodore's former vassals.
And now Gunn has found armor from the south, which means that Claudio and the Second Son League are also impatient and join the battle for the Golden Valley.
After all, the fertility and richness of this land are well known on the continent of Brattis, although it has withered a lot due to bandits and wars.
But as long as the new owner can recuperate after getting it, and solve the problem of bandits, it won't be long before this place becomes the granary of the empire again.
However, it was not easy for Allister and Claudio to get their hands on the Golden Valley.
The easiest way to attack the Golden Valley is to cross the Elk Valley, otherwise you will have to go over the mountains, and the small team is okay, but the army is very difficult, and the food is difficult to keep up.
This is also what Miss Rabbit doesn't understand, how did Claudio get those weapons and armor to the Golden Valley?
Li Yu said, "We have dealt with Tristan, the head of the Polos family, before, and he is a smart man and has a very flexible position. ”
"You mean that the weapons and armor were put in by Tristan?"
"It's possible." Li Yu said, "Although Tristan is still working for those Wing Clansmen, secretly giving Claudio a face and forming a good relationship is also very much in line with the consistent style of the Ponlos family. ”
"But now the weapons and armor that Claudio managed to bring in are in our hands." Ilea scratched her head, "He doesn't have a problem with us, does he?"
"As for the previous matter of Ilkand, I didn't pay attention to the request of the Second Alliance, otherwise Claudio should have an army of at least five thousand people in the Golden Valley now, and with these weapons, it feels quite powerful."
"Uh...... In this way, how do I feel that the contradictions accumulated between us are a bit big, if Claudio really becomes the final winner, he won't come to me to settle accounts, right?
"So what should I do, am I going to support Allister? But Allister's back is the Church of Life, and last time in the royal capital Cornelia was not very friendly to us, if Allister became emperor, he should also promote the belief in the goddess of life throughout the country. ”
How did Ireya think about it before, anyway, no matter how hard the three parties fight, they can't beat the west, and Miss Rabbit is happy to eat melon seeds and watch the show.
But this time, Gunn collected a batch of weapons and armor from the south, and the female lord realized that no matter who won the final victory, it didn't seem to be a good thing for her.
Li Yu suddenly said at this time, "Then do you have a new candidate?" ”
"New candidates?" Miss Rabbit was stunned, "Who else can compete with these three people." ”
Li Yu didn't answer this time, but asked instead, "Do you have an answer to the previous question?" ”
