In the Emerald Palace, Caesar III, who was seriously injured, reappeared in front of people after a month of recuperation. His face was ruddy, and he didn't look like someone who had been seriously injured at all.

No one mentioned the assassination either. After the Orc Empire announced that it was responsible, the Alpha Kingdom officially also directly characterized it as the orc.

The nobles suspected of participating were also released one after another after a series of investigations because there was no tangible evidence.

Everything returned to normal, as if nothing had happened, but the undercurrent was surging more and more.

No one thought that something so big had happened that Caesar III would swallow his anger. The more there is no seizure, the more panicked everyone's hearts become.

Mo said that he was a nobleman who was suspected of participating, and even the bigwigs in the court were nervous one by one, lest this fire burn on their heads.

Tension was pervasive, but Caesar III remained unmoved. The search for the culprit has stopped, and no one has been held accountable, including the officials on duty.

……

"You've all read the battle reports on the front line, right? The speed of the army's advance is very good, and it seems that our Earl Hudson has made an effort this time. ”

Caesar III's words that seemed to be smiling but not smiling directly confused everyone. Is this happy or unhappy with Hudson?

Trying to figure out what the king really thought, everyone didn't dare to answer easily.

Everyone knows that Caesar III is holding a fire in his belly, and he urgently needs a chance to vent, and no one wants to touch this mold.

"Why don't you speak, isn't the front line fighting well?"

Caesar III asked again.

Realizing that he could not hide, the Minister of War, the Grand Duke Ephiero, replied worriedly: "Your Majesty, the battlefield is unpredictable, and it is naturally excellent that Earl Hudson can think of using orcs to control orcs. ”

It's not that he has a good relationship with Hudson and wants to help speak, but as the Minister of War, he must give a fair and objective evaluation in order to be convincing to everyone.

Whether militarily or politically, it is in the interests of the Alpha Kingdom to use orcs against orcs.

The only flaw is that this strategic plan came out too late. If it had been used earlier, it would have been a different story.

However, this is not a reason to criticize and blame. To be able to come up with such a countermeasure and promote its use among the coalition forces in a timely manner is already remarkable.

"Well, tell Earl Hudson to keep him up the good work. Be sure to teach the orcs a hard lesson in the shortest possible time! ”

Caesar III's words immediately caused an uproar in the minds of the group. Every word of the monarch is inevitably politically interpreted.

It is only a "lesson", not a complete annihilation. Apparently Caesar III had wavered in his determination to destroy the Orc Empire.

In the past, when he encountered such a major matter that would determine the future fate of the kingdom, he would first discuss it with everyone, but now he is arbitrary.

The sequelae of the assassination finally began to ferment. No matter how it is played on the surface, Caesar III is still pierced with a thorn in his heart.

Maybe not for everyone, but for the nobles suspected of involvement, here in Caesar III, there must have been a loss of trust.

……

The changes in the court directly affected the front line. In recent days, Hudson has clearly felt something strange in the military.

Relying on the prestige accumulated during this time, he only barely ensured that the troops completed their tasks on time, and more was beyond his ability.

……

"Your Excellency, the struggle in the royal capital, has it started so soon?"

The Coslow family's intelligence network has only just begun and has not yet infiltrated the court. To understand the situation in the royal capital, Hudson had to rely on the power of his father-in-law.

This is also equivalent exchange. The Holliser family provided him with information, and Hudson used his power to make it easier for them.

"I haven't torn my skin yet, but judging from the current situation, the outbreak is coming soon.

So early, in addition to the previous assassination, what is more important is that in this war, the kingdom has gained too much benefit.

The new northern defense line was built by you, and you should know how much land the kingdom has harvested this time.

Now, as long as the orcs are hit hard, this part of the benefits can be eaten by us.

The aristocrats of the country are gearing up to get a piece of the pie. Next, a battle is inevitable! ”

Viscount Oran said helplessly.

In the face of the general situation, the Holliser family is vulnerable. originally wanted to use this war to rise again, but he even thought about the direction of development.

Unfortunately, something went wrong at the last minute. In the battle of the breakout, the standing army of the kingdom suffered heavy losses, and the strength of the Hollisr family in the army was naturally also severely damaged.

Originally, this was nothing, and all the big nobles were lost together, which was equivalent to no one being injured.

However, the family private army he had painstakingly built was also taken to the gutter by Earl Pierce's pit goods, and the army was almost wiped out.

Every time he thought of this, he couldn't help but look at Hudson with envy. People with great luck are different, others have suffered heavy losses in wars, but the Coslow family is getting stronger and stronger in the war.

The Coslow family, which was originally only at the bottom of the middle aristocracy, directly stepped into the ranks of the great nobles under the leadership of Hudson.

Fortunately, it was his son-in-law, otherwise he doubted very much that he would be jealous enough to doubt life.

"Your Excellency the Viscount, rest assured, no matter how much trouble they make, they will have our share, it is nothing more than a matter of sharing the size of the cake.

With the background of the Holliser family, coupled with this harvest, it should not be a big problem to return to the ranks of the great nobles. ”

Hudson spoke comfortingly.

As their most important allies now, the Holliser family must be stabilized. Otherwise, even after entering the circle of the great nobles, there is not even a person to guide the way.

The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings!

In response to the king's orders, Hudson made a decisive decision - selectively carried out.

Fighting the orcs is a must, but the prerequisite is to preserve the strength first. As the commander of the army, he can only continue to win now, and there can be no major defeats.

Hudson has done what he can. Not only has it become famous within the kingdom, but even if you look at the entire Terran Alliance, it has gained a lot of popularity.

Perhaps after countless years, he may also be deified and become one of the rare epic heroes in the history of the human race.

"I hope so! The military exploits of the Holliser family are still lacking after all. Even if you activate all your connections, you don't have a clear advantage over a lot of competitors.

Hudson, let's see if we can create an opportunity in the future, and then let's ......"

Poor condition, short and weak. Try to make it back tomorrow
