When they saw the contents of the letters, their faces were not good-looking. At this moment, everyone understood why the foreign minister wanted them to see it for themselves, instead of relaying it directly.

"Land exchange" is only one of the conditions, and in addition to this most intolerable demand, there are a series of proviso conditions.

Including a series of demands such as war reparations, arms restrictions, and the opening of arms trade bans, each of which is a loss of power and humiliation of the country.

It stands to reason that the elves are so open-mouthed, everyone should refuse. The reality is the opposite, the more the enemy asks, the more hesitant the crowd becomes.

There is no way, the confidence of the elves is too strong. If he refuses, the Kingdom of Hesse will soon face a war of annihilation.

When it comes to the life and death of the kingdom and the fate of each family, no one dares to make a decision easily.

"If we become the key target of the elves, how long can the kingdom hold out, and is it possible to hold out until the alliance's reinforcements arrive?" Alexander V asked uncertainly.

The elven army was exported to the countries of the Central Continent, and they only took a quarter of the firepower, and the front line collapsed all the way.

If the enemy adjusts his offensive strategy and shifts from a full-scale offensive to a focused offensive and devotes most of his forces to the Kingdom of Hesse, the situation will immediately change.

"Your Majesty, if it weren't for the Stone Clan, we might be able to give it a try. In the current bad situation, even if the enemy does not increase his troops, the kingdom is afraid that it will not last long. Count Niklas's responsible words directly shattered all the illusions of Alexander V, and the atmosphere in the hall became more and more depressing.

According to the recognized level of strength on the mainland, the strength of the elven race is benchmarked against the Holy See and the Frankish Kingdom.

It turned out that in this echelon, there was also an orc empire. It's just that the orcs were too active, and after being beaten hard, they fell into the second echelon.

At this level are the Libyan Kingdom of Yin, the Dwarven Kingdom, and the Alpha Kingdom when they were not injured.

The other seven kingdoms of the human race, including the Hessian Kingdom, and several alien forces all belong to the third echelon.

Of course, this is only based on past records and everyone's strength on paper. In the same echelon, the difference in their respective strength is also very large, and it is changing at any time.

For example: after the last orc invasion, the Alpha Kingdom fell to the third echelon, and the Warhammer Kingdom slipped to the fourth echelon.

The declining Oprus Kingdom, Avalat Kingdom, and Ruthenian Kingdom only seem to be large in size, and their comprehensive strength is only classified into the third echelon.

In terms of military strength alone, it has already fallen. The Hessian Kingdom is very embarrassed now, or the three major kingdoms of the Middle Continent are quite embarrassed.

Judging from their combat records, they are not only completely incomparable with the Alpha Kingdom next door, but also the alien races in the third echelon.

Taking the Hessian Kingdom as an example, when attacking the Stone People Clan in front, he took a group of younger brothers to play a group fight, but the result was still more losses and fewer wins.

Those who know the inside story understand that this is an opportunity to consume vassal power; Those who don't know think they're gone.

Now that they have been beaten by the alliance of the ancient relics, the outside world is even more suspicious of their strength. The elven lions opened their mouths, essentially because they were too sluggish on the battlefield.

Even if the cannon fodder units performed poorly, the dozen or so main army corps that were successively put into the battlefield did not play as well as they should have.

Being demoralized by pig teammates can be used as an excuse to defeat the battle, but it cannot be recognized by the enemy for their strength.

Respect is only based on strength, but as long as they perform better on the battlefield, it is impossible for the elves to make such unreasonable demands.

"Your Majesty, let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the elves get in touch first. It is best to be able to talk about it, and if you can't talk about it, you can delay it for a while. In any case, at such a time, the kingdom cannot be rash and become the focus of the alien army. If possible, it would be better to reconcile the relationship and keep the kingdoms of Dante and the South Bank in line with us. If necessary, we can send the news to the Frankish kingdom and the Holy See, urging them to send reinforcements soon! The Prime Minister, Duke Milton, said with a solemn expression.

It is impossible to accept the demands of the enemy in its entirety, and no one dares to sign such a humiliating treaty.

It is even worse to refuse directly, it is more serious than losing power and humiliating the country. Against this backdrop, delaying time on the grounds of negotiation has become the best option.

If you really can't figure it out, then drag your allies into the water together. One family can't afford the political consequences of compromising with other races, so pull a few more families to share it together.

As for using compromise with foreign races as a bargaining chip to blackmail the Holy See and the Frankish Kingdom to send troops to rescue, the Duke of Milton was not optimistic.

The risk is simply too great, and while exerting pressure, it is also possible to send yourself to the point of no return.

After all, times are different. The Frankish kingdom, which pulled out the nail of the orcs, and the restored Holy See, are now sharpening their knives and wanting to expand their power.

It's just a matter of fighting aliens, and the annexation within the Terran world is not so simple. Without a suitable excuse, there is a risk of interference from States at any time.

Using a compromise with an alien race as a bargaining chip to threaten is likely to backfire. What the Frankish kingdom and the Holy See want to see most now is that they compromise with the aliens.

The big hat of "betraying the interests of the human race" is buttoned down, but it can crush the Kingdom of Hesse. Such a stain, even if it has been ten or eight years in the past, people can still turn over old accounts.

If you really want to compromise with the elves, you have to learn that the Alpha Kingdom and the Principality of Moxi are both signing secret treaties with the elves in private.

In order to cover the existence of the Secret Covenant, the Principality of Moxi is now fighting fake battles with the elven army on the border every day.

Around the border city, that's what you fight for. The two sides have made an appointment, one, three, five, you control, two, four, six, I control.

In order to prove that the battle was fierce, the magic crystal cannons on both sides often rang non-stop, and the sound of artillery fire could be heard within a radius of dozens of miles.

In order to make the effect more realistic, there are often dead actors on the stage, and the main focus is a profession.

"Just do what the prime minister says!" Alexander V said with a bitter face. The ambitions of the pre-war period are now in vain.

Now he has only one thought in his head-

"Reform". In fact, the three strongest kingdoms of the Terran have all undergone political reforms in the last hundred years.

The Kingdom of Hesse did not follow up, and that was because both the reforms of Charles I of the Frankish Kingdom and the dynastic wars of the Libyan Kingdom of Yin killed a lot of people in the process of reform.

The only thing that the reform went relatively smoothly was the Alpha Kingdom, where the orcs' butcher's knives were all on everyone's necks, and they were about to fall to the ground, and there was really no time to fight.

Later, the Principality of Moxi, which succeeded in reform, was also forced to carry out internal reforms when the orc soldiers were in the city.

These are all examples of successful reforms, but many more reforms have ended in failure. The three kingdoms that fell into decline all fell rapidly because of the failure of internal reforms and the counterattack of interest groups, which led to the erosion of the authority of the central government.

……

"Idiot, what are you doing in a daze, throw stones!"

"The difficulty will wait for the enemy to ......" Before the ogre officer could finish his reprimand, several soldiers in front of him fell.

When he got closer, the eyes of the middle-aged ogre moistened. At some point, these soldiers were hit by arrows, and they continued to fight with all their stubborn willpower just now, but now they finally couldn't hold on.

Similar scenes happen every day on the battlefield. The Terrans may be tolerant of other alien races, but it is absolutely impossible to spare them the ogres.

Look at the ethnic names

"Cannibals", you know how much hatred they have. In order to reflect the undying hatred, the Terrans also deliberately added one to their racial name

The word "Magic". It's not about morale, it's purely a struggle for survival. If the ogre wants to open the cultivation talent, he must devour the flesh and blood of humans; If you want to practice magic, you have to devour the soul of a human being.

Proper human predators, if they were to be allowed to live in the world, would be a blasphemy against all members of the human race.

Now that humans have become the overlords of the continent, the ogre clan will naturally suffer the most vicious beatings. As soon as the continental war began, their end came.

The kingdom of Libya Yin, with a group of younger brothers, waged the most brutal war against them. The slogans are all shouted

"Clean up the garbage for the world and exterminate the ogres". It doesn't matter at all whether they surrender or not, the enemy only wants to kill all ogres, even if they repeatedly promise that they will not eat human flesh and devour human souls, it will not help.

Potential threats must be eliminated. The Terran Alliance issued an order to exterminate the clan, and anyone who dared to show mercy to their subordinates would be punished as treason.

Under high pressure, there will be backlash. The ogre, who is cornered, can only fight the Terrans in his own way.

Both sides are fighting for race, and there is no right or wrong.

"The magic crystal cannon adjusts its angle and aims at the buildings in the city."

"Magic crossbow, salvo!" …… Magic technology has changed the mode of warfare, and with long-range fire suppression, as the besieging side, the losses are actually smaller than the defending side.

Of course, one of the important reasons for this is that the Terrans are powerful, and the difficulty for ogres to obtain the flesh and soul of the Terrans has greatly increased.

From birth to death, many ogres did not have the opportunity to open their cultivation talents, and could only be reduced to the lowest level of the clan.

After a loud bang of "boom, ......boom, boom", the overwhelmed city wall finally fell.

Countless ogres were buried directly under the rocks. The ogre clan whose civilization is in the tribal era can build such a royal city, and the interracial alliance has also made great efforts.

It's a pity that this royal city did not bring glory to the ogre clan, but ushered in the catastrophe ten years after its completion.

Countless Terran soldiers rushed into the city through the gap and fought with the ogre soldiers defending the city.

Behind them were a steady stream of Terran armies, pouring into the city. The hastily assembled ogre soldiers were quickly dispersed by the Terran army, and then collapsed in a pool of blood.

Every street, every alley, every building, the two sides have to fight fiercely.

The battle lasted until the seventeenth day of the city's destruction, when the ogre defenders were wiped out. After the war, the Ogre King City was full of severed arms and stumps.

In the entire continental war, there is no place where the battle situation is so fierce, and the flesh and blood grinding plate is properly placed. After receiving the battle report, King Bordeaux VIII was silent.

This victory came too much, an ogre city that devoured the lives of 800,000 people. Luckily, the ogre is only a royal city, and if there are a few more, the battle will not be able to fight.

Although most of the casualties were contributed by the younger brothers, the war has been going on so far, and the Kingdom of Yin Libya has still lost 400,000 troops.

The undying race will not end with a royal city, and the next battle to drill the ravine will only last longer.

A victory with heavy losses is also a victory. It was also exciting news for the war on the continent as a whole.

The countries don't care about the casualties of the Libyan Kingdom, everyone just needs to know that the Terrans have won. The main battlefield has been won, and the follow-up sweeping battle can be slowly grinded.

If you are afraid of trouble, you can also go to mercenaries and slave hunting teams. These are all professional teams, and the work of sweeping the tail is worse than that of the regular army.

With the fall of the Ogre King City, the Terrans have won a great victory in the Southern Continent, and the only remaining alien race is the Dwarven Kingdom.

However, geographically, most of the territory of the dwarven kingdom is in the central continent, but the Holy See that is at war with them is tacitly regarded as a power in the southern continent by the outside world.

The good news came out, which directly stimulated the major battlefields on the mainland. Hudson, who was far away in the depths of the prairie, smiled when he received the news.

The hard bones of the ogre have been gnawed down by the Libyan Kingdom of Yin, and the probability of the Terrans winning the continental war has increased invisibly.

The strength of the two sides is increasing and decreasing, and now it is time for the alien alliance to have a headache. Hudson was very much looking forward to the expressions of the three elven queens when they received the news.

The elves have been paddling all the time, and finally participated in a continental war, and the situation is showing signs of collapse.

Following the Holy See and the Kingdom of the Franks, the Kingdom of Libya also freed up part of its forces, and the main forces of the continental coalition were already available.

Estimating the elves at this moment, they have already begun to think about how they should end up next. Either destroy the countries of the Central Continent in one go, gamble all the chips, and fight a war with the Terrans to determine the ownership of the continental overlord; Either find an opportunity to accept it and wait for the opportunity to end the war.

The same troubles, the same Orc Empire. Once the Terrans have won a great victory, how will they have good fruit to eat?

"Pass the order, let the scout brigade set up a beacon in the opposite direction of the army's march, and wait for my orders."

"Specific standards, just refer to the enemy's beacon setting, don't do it too well." Hudson reassured.

The beacon fire wolf smoke is also exquisite, and the beacon tower that the orc empire hastily launched is undoubtedly the lowest one.

During the previous battles, Hudson had also seen orc soldiers use the wrong material, which was supposed to create smoke, but turned into a raging fire.

It was also a message, but the wolf smoke was clearly visible dozens of miles away, and the flames were transmitted for a few miles at most.

It's not the best to play chess. His intuition told him that the next road back to China would not be smooth. The mutated situation has increased the pressure on the Orc Empire, and they are bound to act.

The situation on the continent is gradually unfavorable to the alien alliance, but as long as they can defeat the Alpha Kingdom, everything can be reversed.

One side occupies the northern continent and the other side occupies the southern continent, and the competition around the central continent can easily form a pattern of confrontation between the north and the south.
