In the Warhammer Kingdom, under the full attack of the orcs, the strong steel defense line was finally overwhelmed and collapsed.

In the heart-rending shouts of killing, the end of the battle was announced.

Several orc emperors were looking at the battlefield from afar. It could be seen from their deliberate eyes that they didn't want to withdraw their troops so early.

Although he didn't say anything, deep down he greeted the whole family of Emperor Beamon.

has the secret method of immortality, if you don't take it out and share it with everyone, you can't even do a secret job.

Now that he is in trouble, his strategy of taking the entire orc empire has been frustrated. If it weren't for the stimulation of the secret law, what would the Terran Alliance be doing now?

According to past experience, there was no precedent for reinforcements to arrive in the first year of the war, and it was only in the second year at the earliest that the front line could not withstand it, and all countries would send troops slowly.

A few more months, and the battlefield is a different world.

The alien race who was originally moved by their efforts and was about to join the battlefield was now also frightened and shrunk back.

There is no way, although the overlord of the continent, the human race, is now divided, but its comprehensive strength has risen instead of falling.

Looking at the number of masters, you can know that just a group of old men who are about to reach the end of their lives, with the cooperation of the Alpha Kingdom army, can kill all the way to the Beamon Imperial Court.

Orcs are not a small race, and in the entire continent of Aslanth, they are also behemoths second only to the human race.

The failure of the second child to challenge the boss is never new, but their second child has lost too miserably.

If a few more allies participate, there is no guarantee that they will still be able to destroy the Warhammer Kingdom and the Duchy of Moxi.

Kick out the obstacles, and the small countries behind them will not be able to stop their troops, and then the sphere of influence of the Orc Empire will be able to extend all the way to the elven coast and face each other hand in hand with the elven kingdom.

As a multi-racial country, it is only natural to take the continental remnants of the Ice and Snow World in the far north into its command.

When the Orc Empire was at its peak, these races were part of them, and now they are back in the arms of the Orc Empire, and there is nothing wrong with it.

The orc empire, which has completed the great annexation, is still not the opponent of the human race, but the gap in strength between the two sides will be greatly narrowed.

After forming an alliance with the elves, there is still a chance to succeed in joining forces to resist the counterattack of the human race.

As for whether the elves are willing to be neighbors with them, they are not taken to heart by several emperors at all. Racial competition depends on the pros and cons, and it can't be determined by temperament.

The elves and the orc empire do not deal with each other, but when it comes to fighting the human race, he is a natural ally.

Without the orcs pulling hatred in front, the hammer of the human race will fall on the elves. Compared to the poor orc empire, the elves themselves are a valuable asset.

"Let's go, the battle here is over, and we should leave.

Reinforcements from the Terran Alliance are about to arrive in the Duchy of Moxi, and it won't be long before they come to the rescue, and the chance to destroy the Warhammer Kingdom is gone! ”

The Eagle Emperor said with emotion.

An opportunity that is close at hand, just walks under the nose. In the future, it will become more and more difficult to change the pattern of the continent.

If there are no major changes in the future, the continental hegemony of the human race will become more and more stable after this war.

"Let's take a look at it again, I'm afraid that we won't have a chance to come back in this life.

Emperor Beamon's old immortal is really a scourge! ”

The Lion Emperor said indignantly.

In order to provoke this war, he didn't even want to lose his face. As a result, it ended in such a disgraced situation, which really made him unwilling.

"What's the use of saying this, the old immortals of the Terrans have all killed the Beamon Imperial Court. Even if he handed over the secret method of immortality, people would not let him go.

Even if he was lucky enough to escape the pursuit of the human race, so many old immortals in the whole continent were sharpening their knives, and he couldn't escape.

There's no need to deal with a dying Beamon.

With this spare time, we might as well discuss the post-war matters first. For example: the future political landscape of the Empire! ”

The Bear Man Emperor said with a big grin.

The Beamon clan suffered heavy losses, and the Bear Clan did not have a good time. The only thing worth reassuring is that this disaster was caused by Emperor Bimeng.

It is impossible for the Orc Empire to liquidate the two royal families at the same time, and even if a power struggle breaks out, it will only target one of them.

The Bear Man Emperor chose to bring it up at this time, obviously arching the fire and encouraging everyone to point the finger at the Beamon Imperial Court.

"Looking at the posture of the human race, most of us will be liquidated next, and the slightest carelessness will lead to heavy losses.

It's too early to discuss post-war issues, so let's wait until the war is over!

In order to avoid some unnecessary conflicts and conflicts, it is best for everyone to appease their tribes first and eliminate unstable factors in advance, so as not to make jokes. ”

The words of the Silver Moon Wolf Emperor made everyone's faces change greatly. All wars have a common purpose - to deplete the surplus population and purge the unstable tribes.

This time the situation is a bit special, although the army led by them has completed the cleaning task, but the Alpha battlefield has changed.

After the rout of the army, the Terran army only chased and killed the main forces of the five royal clans, and simply ignored the other races that fled.

Under the influence of one another, those races with strong combat power that escaped the catastrophe have become unstable factors.

Next, the offensive and defensive momentum is reversed, and the key targets of the Terrans will definitely be on them, and there is a high probability that they will pay heavy losses.

If these powerful races are not suppressed, it is very likely that they will become a major hidden danger to their rule after the war.

Even if these races are not strong, then what about the help of the neighbor of the Alpha Kingdom?

The Terrans are already good at playing politics, and if they have the opportunity to provoke civil strife in the Orc Empire, they will definitely not let go of this opportunity.

……

The orcs were worried, and Joseph II was even more worried. The war has been going on until now, and the royal family's descendants are left with the 10,000 people who follow him.

Such an armed force, in the hands of a big nobleman, can only be regarded as shabby.

The great nobles can be sustained by this army, not just the king. Everyone will not grab the throne, but in the competition for the right to speak in the kingdom, I don't think everyone will give in.

Especially when the news of the withdrawal of the orc army came, the infighting became more and more intense.

The eastern aristocracy wants to get everything back from the original, and the western aristocracy wants to take a bigger piece of the pie, and the two sides are quarrelling.

In private, there was even more than one fight, with more than three digits of casualties, which made Joseph II angry.

It's just that he can't do anything yet, and if he is not careful, the western nobles will spray him for being unfair.

There are many people who spray "unfairness", but if they dare to say so openly in the court, it is rare in the entire Aslant continent.

"The orcs have just begun to evacuate, and we are in such a hurry to evacuate, I'm afraid it's not good!"

Joseph II said in embarrassment.

In the western region, they belong to the parasitic fence, and the eastern aristocracy is naturally not the opponent of these sitting tigers.

Returning to one's own turf is undoubtedly the best option to salvage the situation. But the problem is that the eastern part of the kingdom is not the prosperous eastern part of the kingdom.

After being tragically harmed by the orcs, it is now a white field, and it can be said that there are corpses and bones everywhere.

This kind of ghost place is not suitable for human life at all.

Forcibly moving to the past, even if you have a strong heart and don't taboo these things, you have to consider practical issues.

The army plus the nobles who evacuated ahead of schedule and the servants, and the eating, drinking and Lazar of more than 100,000 people in a group is a big problem.

The western aristocracy dares to be so arrogant now, not only to vent the resentment accumulated in the past, but also because these outsiders eat other people's mouths.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is out of our way. The appetite of these people in the west is so great that we have promised to make concessions, but they still refuse to give up.

Half of the court's position, plus one-fifth of the Warhammer Great Plains, was not enough to satisfy their appetites.

If they continue to compromise, I'm afraid the Warhammer Kingdom will be their kingdom! ”

Prime Minister Gai Yin arched the fire road.

If he had a choice, he would not want to jump out and hard-top with the nobles in the west, after all, it was the people who had the upper hand now.

Even if they get their foundation back, it is not a matter of a day or two to restore their strength. For a long time to come, it was the western aristocracy that prevailed.

But the problem is that the contradictions accumulated in the past are too deep, especially after the last war, the deliberate matter of leaving the western nobles as cannon fodder has completely ignited the contradictions between the two sides.

It is easy to stir up disputes, but it is difficult to quell them. When many things are laid out in the open, it means that there is no compromise.

The Minister of War, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and other important ministers of the kingdom have been taken down one after another, and if it were not for the king's support, he, the prime minister, would also have to resign and leave in disgrace.

The reasons are too good, and the situation in the kingdom has deteriorated to the present, and someone at the decision-making level must be held accountable for this.

The army suffered defeats along the way, and the Ministry of Military Affairs could not escape the blame. It's just that the Minister of War resigns and leaves, and does not continue to pursue responsibility, it is all for the sake of everyone who is a nobleman.

Diplomatically competing for the aid of the alliance and losing to the Alpha Kingdom and the Duchy of Moxi, it is naturally the incompetence of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

……

The situation has deteriorated to such a point that few people in the upper echelons of the kingdom can say that they are not responsible. As soon as the lid is lifted, everyone has to get out of their positions.

Joseph II tried to protect the prime minister, not because he valued this capable general, but because he needed someone to attract firepower and not let the finger be pointed directly at him.

If all the ministers go down, then the king will be held accountable for it. The way to do it is very simple, just give up the throne to your son.

As long as the king is willing to cooperate, everyone is a "loyal servant" of the kingdom, and he will never kill the king.

"Shut up, you can't talk nonsense!"

Joseph II scolded.

Now it is only a struggle between the nobles of the two camps, and the western nobles are only dissatisfied with him, but they have not yet reached the point of changing the king.

If you stand with the eastern aristocracy again, it is difficult to guarantee that the situation will not evolve to that point.

However, in order to maintain the political balance of the kingdom and ensure the stability of the royal power, he had to support the disadvantaged eastern aristocracy.

The situation of the contradictory body was a particular headache for Joseph II. It's like dancing on two eggs, and if you're not careful, the eggs will break and you'll be desolate.

……

Without the Beamon cavalry to make trouble, a group of rebels led by a cult organization were naturally no match for the expeditionary force. From the beginning of the division of troops, the good news has not been broken.

Three thousand here, five thousand there. Soon the main task of the expeditionary force was not to fight, but to guard captured prisoners of war.

As more and more prisoners grew, so did Hudson's pressure.

Since the war has been going on, the population loss of the Alpha Kingdom is not small, especially in the northern provinces that have fallen, and the population loss is even heavier.

Especially now that the uninhabited provinces further north have been reclaimed, the noble lords who acquired these lands after the war have to worry about the population.

Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. The dust has not yet settled, and the great nobles in the kingdom have already set off a war to rob people.

A large number of prisoners of war in the hands of the expeditionary force soon came into everyone's sight. One by one, regardless of whether they had friendship or not, they all sent representatives over.

Faced with a group of dignitaries, Hudson was also helpless. Although there were many prisoners of war, they were not enough for everyone.

What's more, he still has to take one for himself, and the younger brothers under his command also score one share, and the rest can be taken out and divided.

The limited prisoners of war in their hands, to whom not to give them, turned into a test.

If everyone shared it together, it would certainly not offend anyone, but he also wanted to hope that someone would remember him.

Everyone will just take it for granted, and even most people will complain about the lack of points. Because the results of a fair distribution of the cake tend to be lower than the respective expectations.

Hudson wouldn't do such a thankless stupid thing. Rather than being blamed by everyone, it is better to selectively offend a group of people.

How to distribute the cake in his hand, Hudson's heart is uncertain.

Who are the friends and who are the enemies?

This is a problem that he can't tell at all now. This is the biggest disadvantage of getting up from below, and you can't immediately pinpoint yourself.

There are deep-seated interests involved, and many things cannot be just taken at the surface. Being friendly doesn't mean being friends, and having a bad attitude doesn't have to be an enemy.

There are too many things to consider behind this, to determine whether a big nobleman is a friend or foe, not only to see the relationship between the two parties, but also to consider the marriage behind it, their respective circles, and the location of the fiefdom......

Hudson didn't dare to leave this kind of thing to the future in the hands of others. can only rely on the limited information in hand, one by one, combing, screening.

"Enemies" are singled out and set aside, and potential competitors are singled out and set aside, and these are the first things to be eliminated.

No matter whose face it is, you can't do the enemy's business.

The nobles of the neutral camp with an unclear position are among the objects that can be fought for, and that is another treatment.

As for the allies, this is very regrettable. The Coslow family has not yet become allies with any of the great nobles, but there are several enemies.

Don't say that you have made friends, even the big nobles who have dealt with them are only a handful.

It's not a person from the same world, and if you forcibly join a circle, it's not a person all the way.

Hudson was embarrassed to rise so fast that he didn't have time to network.

Even if there is a network, it is in the Duchy of Moxi. We have no core conflicts of interest, and we can make friends with confidence and boldness.

When the middle and lower aristocratic circles were mixed, there was also the network of the Coslow family available, and Hudson was also thriving.

When Hudson was in his current position and needed to face the nobility of the whole country, the family's connections could not keep up.
