Misfortune was not alone, and while the situation in the province of Misia was being discussed, three more letters for help flew from the front line.

The Minister of War, who was still full of confidence, was dumbfounded all of a sudden.

Simply suppressing the rebellion, the Kingdom of Hesse is naturally not a problem. But the problem is that the main forces of the kingdom are mostly gathered on the front line.

According to the original idea, in addition to the royal capital to guard a part of the army, the main responsibility of the kingdom's standing army was to garrison the frontier, and the nobles' private army was responsible for maintaining local security.

No one thought that after the cult rebellion was superimposed on the natural disaster, this perfect military structure would be broken.

The more chaos arose in the country, the less they dared to mobilize the large armies at the front. If the front foot of the army just moved, and the back foot of the alien army took advantage of the fire to loot and kill, it would be a tragedy.

The army left behind in the royal capital has already been transferred three times, and if you continue to draw troops from it, everyone will not be able to sleep.

The sudden change in the situation made things complicated all of a sudden.

Under normal circumstances, the great nobles would not ask the royal government for help. After all, it's your own territory, and no one wants to be criticized.

Four provinces have been forced to the point of appealing to the royal government for help, and one can imagine how dangerous the local situation is. If it continues to deteriorate, it will really be the end of the dynasty.

Alexander V, the self-proclaimed ruler of a generation, would never allow such a thing to happen.

"All of them are dumb!"

"Aren't they all quite capable in normal times, but why did they become dumb when they reached a critical moment?"

"And these four idiots who asked for help, they can't even take care of their own territory, it's really waste!"

……

The chatter and angry scolding continued to surround everyone's ears, and at this moment, Alexander V no longer had the monarchical demeanor of the past.

Maybe it was because he had been holding it for too long, but suddenly he put it down, and Alexander V's heart was extremely relaxed.

The anger that had originally accumulated, accompanied by a burst of output, was almost vented, and the tone gradually returned to peace.

"Let's talk about it, what do we do now?"

The topic was suddenly pulled back to the track of solving the problem, and the people who bowed their heads and scolded were very uncomfortable, and almost suspected that there was something wrong with their ears.

After a moment's hesitation, the Prime Minister, the Duke of Milton, replied stubbornly, "Your Majesty, in view of the deteriorating situation in the country, we must prepare for the worst.

Judging from the intelligence gathered in various places, there are rebels of varying sizes in almost every province, and it is feared that the mobilization of troops from other provinces to quell the rebellion is not enough.

For now, the only way to do this is to ask for help from the five-nation alliance. In this wave of cult rebellions, the Northern Continent was not greatly damaged, and both the Alpha Kingdom and the Principality of Moxi had suppressed the rebellion.

...... to the two countries"

As he spoke, the Duke of Milton suddenly couldn't speak. It's shameful enough to ask for help from allies, and it's really a bit shameless to ask for help from a principality.

It doesn't matter if you don't say it, the meaning has been expressed, and everyone understands what to do next.

"Marquis Krasner, this matter will be left to you to coordinate. There is only one principle: the core interests of the kingdom cannot be touched, and you can do the rest!"

Alexander V immediately clapped his head.

The soldiers on the battlefield are fast, and they have to hurry up for help. Alexander V, who did not want to be the king of the dead country, showed the responsibility of a king at this moment.

It's good to be embarrassed, the situation has deteriorated to the point where it is now, and the international prestige of the Kingdom of Hesse has long fallen to the bottom.

If it drags on any longer, it will not be a matter of face, but even the lining will not be saved.

Although there is a price to be paid for asking for help, this part of the loss is controllable, everyone is an ally after all, and there is a common enemy, and there is always a line to do things.

……

The wheel of history continued to move forward, and when the Kingdom of Hesse could not hold on to asking for help from abroad, the cult rebellion also reached its climax.

Not only are the human countries uncomfortable, but the life of the alien race is not very easy, and even the elven race, which is known for its unity, has now emerged

A new branch - the Fallen Elves!

It is all normal operation, and the alien race can sponsor the cult in the Terran world, and the Terran will naturally sponsor the cult in the alien race.

In order to support cult organizations in the alien world, the Terran Alliance has also set up a special fund.

In addition, the countries of the mainland will also instinctively support some cults of different races.

Hudson didn't know much about the cults in other places, but several major cults within the Orc Empire had taken funds from him.

The grassland was hit by a severe drought, and at a glance it was clear that it was suitable for the spread of cult ideology. Without the slightest hesitation, Hudson asked the intelligence services to sponsor these cult organizations.

They are all primitive cult organizations, which are at least two eras behind the cult groups active in the human world.

If it weren't for the scruples of influence, he would have wanted to help these cult organizations compile a program of activities.

After much hesitation, Hudson gave up on the idea. There is no other reason than simply not being at ease with the ability of these cults to carry out their actions.

The more perfect the program, the more attention to detail management, and the higher the requirements for people.

The civilization level of the orcs is there, and letting them do such a complicated job is obviously embarrassing others.

……

"You're saying that a new cult has sprung up in the orc empire and hasn't come to us to solicit sponsorship?"

Hudson asked with interest.

He had seen a lot of cults in the Orc Empire, and it was the first time Hudson had heard of a cult like this, which gave up sponsorship for the sake of safety.

It's not that the cult must be sponsored from the outside, the main thing is that the orc empire is too poor, including the pockets of the four royal families.

In this context, the little wealth that believers contribute is difficult to even raise enough funds for activities.

"Yes, Marshal!

This organization is very hidden, and if it weren't for a chance, we wouldn't know it existed.

Judging from the information gathered, this group is most fond of provoking fights between orc tribes.

Recently, there have been endless racial vendettas and tribal wars within the Orc Empire, and in addition to our efforts, they have also contributed a lot of strength."

Listening to Zero's answer, Hudson's interest intensified. His instincts told him that this mysterious organization had something to do with the previous border conflict.

Originally, he wanted to find out who was behind the scenes, but after seeing these guys actively provoking the orc infighting, Hudson suddenly found that it was good to keep these guys.

The cults that toss the orcs are all good cults. It's better to let the orcs die in the infighting than to let them show up on the battlefield with the kingdom.

"Keep an eye on them, don't rush to get closer. If they have the heart, they will come to the door sooner or later!"

Hudson said with a smile.

Any ambitious orc cult will inevitably move closer to the kingdom in the end, which is determined by reality.

The lack of materials is only one aspect, if you want to overthrow the rule of the royal family and become bigger and stronger, you are destined to be inseparable from the support of the Alpha Kingdom.

It's a win-win deal, the cult wants to rebel ashore, the Alpha Kingdom needs a divided orc empire, and there is a basis for cooperation between the two sides.

Hudson is not afraid that these cults will become bigger, but he is afraid that they will not be big. If you can start a rebellion similar to Nether Cult in the Orc Empire, it will make a lot of money.

But this can only be imagined, and racial barriers are not so easy to break. The four royal families + the seven royal families include almost all the powerful factions within the orc empire, and the remaining races are obviously inferior in strength.

The three clans responsible for garrisoning the front line are all considered powerful within the Orc Empire at this moment.

However, compared with the eleven races above, there is still a big gap. I want to make a big fuss again, unless I can pull all the remaining races together.

If you don't drink a few catties, normal people can't give birth to this kind of anti-heaven thought. Except for the beast god himself, it is estimated that no one will be able to do it.

As soon as Zero was sent away, Hudson received a message from the royal capital: the Kingdom of Hesse had officially asked the kingdom for help, and it was as soon as possible to meet in the royal capital.

As the first person in the military, Hudson will naturally not be missing from the meeting to discuss whether to send troops.

There is nothing to say, born to work hard. Counting the noble lords of the Alpha Kingdom, except for those who served in the royal capital, he was the most diligent in running the royal capital.

Basically, every time a major event happened, Hudson had to run to the royal capital, and coupled with routine meetings, Hudson ran to the royal capital once a month on average.

Running back and forth so frequently, the result is that he is very familiar with the civil and military officials of the court, no matter who he meets, he can chat a few words, and when he walks together, he is like his own person.

Fortunately, in a joint-stock kingdom, if it were in a unified dynasty, the imperial historians would have flocked to the impeachment: collusion between inside and outside, plotting rebellion!

As usual, they mixed in the crowd, and walked into the main hall in groups of threes and threes. I don't know if it's an illusion, Hudson always felt that Caesar IV was deliberately staring at them.

I couldn't find a reason for being noticed, so I simply didn't bother to pay attention to it. Anyway, he eats on his achievements, and he doesn't need to look at the king's face.

Even if the king wanted to optimize the team and change the civil and military officials in the court, it would not be Hudson's turn to be laid off.

There is no career pressure, and naturally there is no time to figure out the mind of Caesar IV, and there is no need to think about patting the boss's ass.

Frankly, Hudson found Caesar IV quite hard. None of the important members of the court are good at figuring out the king's thoughts.

Everyone performs their duties, and on weekdays, they often fail to remove the king from the throne at work. If you become a strong king, if you don't pull it out and cut it, you will at least drive people back to farming.

But Caesar IV couldn't!

The court is full of a group of veterans of the two dynasties, all of whom have merits, and without a suitable reason, even the king cannot make personnel adjustments.

To put it another way of saying low emotional intelligence: the hundred officials of the Chinese military department in the DPRK are seriously huddled, and the power of the king has shrunk significantly.

What's worse is that this group is all "loyal subjects", and their prestige is higher and higher, and no one thinks that they are vetoing the king's opinion, and there is anything wrong with it!

It's hard to find a crime and buckle your hat, what these guys do is completely instinctive, in fact, everyone doesn't really form a party, and they don't think about setting up the king.

Power is so mysterious, as long as it is in the position, no matter what the subjective thoughts of everyone are, the objective result is that the royal power is restricted.

If you play a constitutional monarchy, this should be the most ideal team, but unfortunately the Alpha Kingdom is a monarchy, and Caesar IV does not have such an advanced concept.

After the courtesy greetings, Hudson returned to his place, quietly waiting for the meeting to begin.

……

"Prime Minister, since everyone has arrived, then you are responsible for presiding over the meeting!"

The words of Caesar IV did not cause a single stir at the scene. The king did not want to preside over the meeting, and it was nothing new to leave the matter to the prime minister.

The unhappiness in the tone was even ignored by everyone. The king is not happy, what does it matter to them?

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After a courtesy answer, the Chancellor, the Grand Duke of Newfoundland, walked to the center of the hall and said slowly, "I have gathered you here today mainly to discuss the affairs of the Kingdom of Hesse.

There are three topics:

Does the kingdom send troops?

How many troops to send?

Who is responsible for leading the troops?"

"Prime Minister, it is inevitable that the kingdom will send troops. Don't waste any time discussing, let's get straight to the next two topics!"

Marquis Delgado replied first.

It can be seen that the Chancellor of the Exchequer is not in a good mood at the moment.

The soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first.

To send troops to rescue the Kingdom of Hesse, military expenses are destined to be indispensable. Maybe there may be a bigger reward from the Hesses, but that's for the future.

What's more

Even if there are returns, most of them are political, and the probability of feedback to the financial side is very small.

As if under a curse, the Alpha Kingdom itself is a poor ghost, and the allies it finds can only be poor ghosts. Even if you don't do it now, you will become a poor ghost in the future.

For example, the Duchy of Moxie next door, once known for being rich and army, quickly slipped from a rich country to financial bankruptcy after forming an alliance with the Alpha Kingdom.

At least, on the bright side!

The finances of the three countries of the Central and Continental Continents were originally very good. As a result, it was only a matter of time before the country became impoverished.

"If you don't object, let's move on to the second issue!"

The Prime Minister said with an indifferent shrug of the Archduke of Newfoundland.

Suddenly, Hudson felt a myriad of eyes turn to him, and it was clear that everyone was interested in his opinion.

"Judging from the feedback from the Kingdom of Hesse, the main problem of the rebels is that there are too many of them, and the real combat effectiveness is actually very average.

In terms of high-end forces, the Hesses are still able to suppress the rebels, so we only need to draw three standing legions and recruit some noble private armies.

The total number of troops should not exceed 80,000!

Otherwise, logistical coordination will be very cumbersome. According to the military instructors dispatched, the logistical reform of the Kingdom of Hesse is very difficult."

In just a few sentences, the amount of information exposed is not a lot at all. It turns out that there is no such thing as a free lunch.

While the Hesses received the support of military instructors sent by the kingdom, they also exposed all their own reality to the kingdom.

To put it mildly, Hudson knew better about the power of King Hesse than Alexander V.

The ministers would deceive their own king, and the military instructors sent out had no motive to deceive their own marshals.

As bystanders, no one held the army of the Kingdom of Hesse accountable, even if it was rotten scum.

Helping to reform the military system is just helping. Love to learn, don't learn to pull down, and it will not affect their salary of a copper plate.

Relying on the instructor system that extended to the front line, the analysis of the strength of the rebels was also summarized in Hudson's hands.

Although this information may have delayed some time, the essence has always remained the same.

The feedback of the evil god also has a limit. Being able to provide strength feedback to 100 people is not the same as being able to provide strength feedback to 1,000 or 10,000 people.

As the rebel ranks continued to grow, the little strength that had been improved by the external power of the evil god became more and more insignificant.

Either the quantity or the quality. The amount of energy that the evil god can give back is limited after all.

If the evil god could export unlimited power, so many cult organizations on the mainland would not hide in the corner and tremble for countless years.
