"Good news, marshal!

Urgent news came from the royal capital, and the Council of the Alliance made a resolution this afternoon to officially grant you the title of Marshal of the Terrans.

……”

Obviously, after following Hudson for so many years, Tom, the captain of the guard, has also grown a lot. When reporting news, we all know to pick the key content first.

For the officers and soldiers on the front line, compared to the end of the anti-French war, it was really not as good as Hudson being awarded the title of "Marshal of the Terrans".

"Got it!"

Hudson said with a little excitement.

Although he had expected it, when the dust really settled, he still couldn't help but feel agitated.

"Marshal of the Terrans" is a title of pure glory, and it is definitely useful, but how much role it can play depends mainly on who holds it.

Resting on Hudson, it's vital now. The family foundation is shallow, so make up for glory.

Winning this title, there will definitely be a place for Hudson in the top aristocratic circles in the mainland.

Unlike before, the Coslow family only barely stepped into the level of the great nobility, with an empty bluffing shelf, but the foundation stood on the beach.

The word "nouveau riche" is not a good word in aristocratic circles.

On the surface, no one really whispered in Hudson's ear, but the voice of criticism in the secret never stopped.

It is manifested in the communication in the circle of the great aristocracy.

Hudson, who is a high-ranking and powerful person, naturally no one dares to slack off, but the other members of the Coslow family are not treated so well.

Deliberately targeted, it may not be, but the instinctive rejection can't be concealed.

In recent years, the Coslow family has been marrying with foreign countries on a large scale, but the marriage partners are basically small and medium-sized nobles.

It's not that everyone is shallow-eyed, it's really the arrogance of the big nobles, which makes people unbearable.

Even if it is a side of a large family, when marrying abroad, the Coslow family is rarely considered.

Of course, it is not without exceptions. Some families with few people are very keen to marry the Coslow family.

If you are willing to get rich, in fact, the men of the Coslow family are more popular with everyone.

However, these are all theoretical, and in practice there are still very few. Although people come for the name of "being able to live", the aristocracy also has to pursue the right family.

can't get into the eyes of others, and if you are a descendant, there are only two half-brothers left.

In this world of blood, as long as you find out that your biological mother was born as a businessman, people will give up decisively.

In order to integrate into the circle, Hudson also made a lot of efforts. Judging from the current situation, there is still little effect.

It's okay in the Northern Continent, with the personal relationship he has established, even if everyone despises the Coslow family in their hearts, they can get by in terms of face.

In the Central Continent and the Southern Continent, he can't cover his face. If it weren't for the fact that the territory mainly produced high-end magic potions, it was a monopoly business, and it would be difficult to do business in the past.

There is nothing unbalanced, referring to the past conventions. It takes at least five generations of joint efforts to make the leap from a small nobleman to a big nobleman before it can be truly accepted by the circle.

The situation of the Coslow family is already good. At least on the surface, the old aristocrats did not form a group to suppress them.

When the decision of the League Council was released, not only Hudson was delighted, but also the noble officers of the kingdom who followed him showed equal eagerness.

The title of "Marshal of the Terrans" is not only an affirmation of Hudson personally, but also an affirmation of the soldiers of the Alpha Kingdom.

When they meet again in the future, others spray them as "northern barbarians", and everyone can unceremoniously reply to them.

Unlike before, the Alpha Kingdom obviously has the merit of fighting against foreign races, but every time there is a big war, it has to ask the alliance for help, and the credit has turned into hard work.

If the name is not right, it is not good!

Now that it has finally been officially recognized by the Alliance, the nobles of the kingdom also have the capital to brag about, and they can claim that they are also the pillars of the human race.

Seeing that the excited crowd had already begun to discuss the celebration, Hudson waved his hand and said, "These are all affirmations of our past achievements, and we should focus on the future now."

I have received everyone's wishes, but the war time is not suitable for tossing. The celebration is postponed for the time being, and when we break the orc army, it will be held together with the celebration feast! ”

It can be seen that Hudson's political level has also improved a lot in recent years. The "we", which seemed to be a slip of the tongue, directly shortened the distance between his subordinates.

If it is at the peak of imperial power in the feudal era, and the coach has this practice of buying people's hearts, then there are only two final outcomes: either the yellow robe is added, or the head falls to the ground.

But in a joint-stock country, nothing is a problem. Similar to the practice of buying people's hearts, Hudson did it from the first time he led his troops into the army.

can win battles, rewards and punishments are clear, and treat everyone as their own. After a series of operations, he became the favorite marshal of the officers and soldiers.

That's how grassroots factions emerged. It's just that the situation of the Alpha Kingdom is special, and the major factions are not so distinct, and one person may play multiple roles.

For example, the military aristocracy led by Hudson has both old nobles and emerging nobles, as well as royalists and local princes......

The level of mixing of personnel is not clear to even Hudson, the leader. The main purpose of attracting so many people is only one "to increase the momentum".

When the interests are aligned, this group is explosive in combat effectiveness and represents the strongest military group in the Alpha Kingdom.

When there is a divergence of core interests, the birds and beasts are scattered in an instant, and they fight separately. The binding force of the faction depends entirely on the moral integrity of the individual.

The grass platform team is also a team, relying on the support of this loose group, even if people are not in the court, Hudson is still one of the most powerful giants in the kingdom.

……

Bright Holy Mountain.

"Bastard!"

"This herd!"

"Rubbish!"

……

After receiving the resolution of the alliance meeting, Pius VII began to speak incoherently and directly greeted the rulers of the countries of the continent.

It's such a bully!

In this war against France, the Holy See worked hardest and suffered the most.

Now the allies have colluded with the enemy, shamelessly accusing them of provoking a civil war among the Terrans, and ordering them to pay for the war.

was beaten badly, and all sides had to compensate for the war losses, and even the transcendent position in the alliance was replaced by the Alpha Kingdom, and even the territorial legitimacy of the Papal States had to be reconsidered.

A series of bad news came together, and what made Pius VII even more annoyed was that in order to shirk their responsibilities, the councillors sent by the Holy See actually came to a collective strategic fainting.

Even though I know that their appeal will not change the final result, I have to try. Maybe the enemy is hot-headed and soft-hearted for a while, and in some way gives in?

"Your Majesty, you should dissipate your anger first!

The shameless decisions made by the Council of the Alliance do not represent the Terrans at all, our representatives are all in a state of fainting, who knows if they have played tricks?

Even if we offended a lot of people in the past, but now that we are allies, we have to be careful about face!

I propose that the delegation be ordered to immediately appeal to the Parliament of the Union for reconsideration of Proposal 3. ”

Blake stubbornly persuaded.

Affected by the last battle of the Holy Mountain, there are many new faces in the main hall, and he, the legion leader, has become the oldest existence, and his status ranking has been greatly improved.

As the price of status promotion, the corresponding responsibilities that need to be borne also increase. Now that the Pope is furious, he has to be the first bird.

"Humph!"

"Appeal, are you the council of the alliance or are we the one?

I'm sure this vote is definitely a cat, 100% support, don't you have any other ideas?

This is definitely done by the Franks, Libyans and Arfas with vile means in order to demonstrate their authority! ”

Pius VII said angrily.

The decision of the Council of the League is really too unfavorable to the Holy See, but they have not yet been able to obstruct it.

"The charge of provoking a civil war among the human race" is of the nature of a cannon, and it is difficult to figure it out after three or five months of arguing.

Compensating all sides for war losses is already an established fact, and governments confiscate the property of the Holy See before the Union Council makes a decision.

Naturally, it is impossible to spit out the meat that you have eaten. The current coalition resolution, in a sense, is a patch after the fact, legalizing the previous robbery.

The position in the alliance has been replaced by the Alpha Kingdom at this moment, and it is impossible to give it up.

The so-called appeal is a joke. It is impossible for those with vested interests to give up the interests they have received. Even if you vote a hundred more times, the result will not change.

The last article that the Holy See is powerless to change, but has not yet been completed, they must "argue with reason".

It is a pity that this kind of historical legacy of the period when the Holy See was strong was 100% pitted.

Nobles and kings giving land to the Holy See were commonplace in the continent of Aslanth. Even a decade ago, there were aristocrats of devout faith who donated land.

As for whether it was voluntarily delivered, forced to deliver, or delivered through a private transaction, it is difficult to say.

Anyway, the small countries that once bordered the Holy See have successfully turned themselves into part of the Papal States after experiencing land gifts one after another.

If it weren't for the sudden change that knocked the Holy See to the dust, the Kingdom of Ruthenia would have sacrificed itself in the days to come.

At this moment, if the Terran Alliance wants to jump out and overturn the case for the destroyed countries, there will definitely be a large group of descendants of the original lords who will jump out and accuse the Holy See of illegal land annexation.

In this regard, the three major powers are well in their hearts. Each of them has taken a bite of meat from the alien race, and is in the stage of digesting the results of the battle, and has no intention of expanding externally for the time being.

Even if it is a shock, it is manageable. In contrast, the most important thing is to peel off the old bottom of the Holy See and completely trample this old opponent under his feet.

The faces of everyone were ugly, the enemy was pressing forward step by step, and the Holy See actually had not many options.

If compromise continues, then the fate that awaits the Papal States will be dismembered and dismembered.

No power can do without financial support, and without the foundation of the Papal States, how can they support so many people on the Holy Mountain?

As the last capital of the Holy See's comeback, it cannot continue to retreat no matter what, and the matter will become a dead end here.

……

A family is worried!

The Holy See fell, and the nations were fed.

After swallowing a large tonic gift package, all parts of the human race were filled with joy for a while, and the Alpha Kingdom was naturally no exception.

The industry can't be copied, but the Alpha Kingdom has gained "fame" and established its status as a great power.

Even when wartime economic policies restricted consumption, the country was filled with laughter. This joy was soon transmitted from the royal capital to the Near Eastern front.

Even in the orc camp, you can feel this joy. It's just that instead of sharing the joy, they are filled with endless anger.

Looking at the chaos at the scene, Daniel asked indifferently, "How many waves of attacks has the enemy launched?" ”

In order to fool the orcs, Hudson has sent people out one after another to sabotage in recent days, and he happened to be defeated by the defenders who had been ambushed by the enemy in advance.

The more I went through it, the more Daniel got used to it. It's just that this time it's different, the raiding team went straight to the commander's tent, and almost sent him, the boss, to meet the beast god.

"Marshal, this is the ninth attack of the enemy!"

The guard replied with a shudder.

In the battle just now, the captain of the guard was killed directly, and Daniel, as the coach, almost broke his appearance.

Such a thrilling scene has happened, and someone must be responsible. The captain of the guard, who is the best target to carry the blame, has been killed in battle, and if he continues to be held accountable, it will fall to them.

"It's the ninth time, and each time it's bigger than the last, and it seems that Hudson is really in a hurry!

Pass the order down, let the troops prepare for war, and beware of the enemy suddenly leaving the city for a decisive battle!

In addition, send people to urge the construction progress and continue to put pressure on the enemy. ”

Daniel said with a sneer.

After fighting so many times, it is really not easy to finally grasp the dominance once.

Daniel has been waiting for this day for years. I don't know when Hudson was a hurdle in his heart.

If you don't cross the past, the wound in your heart will never be repaired.

……

At the site of the dam construction of the Xueyue River, the leaders of all ethnic groups involved in the construction all looked at the orders in their hands in a daze.

The construction progress was originally very fast, and now we have to continue to rush the construction period, isn't this a human life?

However, there are also some races among them who are fast in construction, not only completing the task on time, but also rushing forward, which makes the royal soldiers in charge of the overseers very satisfied.

Since someone can complete the task, it is not that the task is set unreasonably, but that the builders are too lazy.

If the verbal urging is not effective, then the whip will be served. The unlucky golden Pyggram was whipped directly because the speed of the flash was not fast enough.

Frightened, he hurriedly commanded the young men in the fall to work, lest the overseers be in a bad mood, and rewarded him with another whip.

However, this is only on the surface, as the lucky one who has obtained the inheritance, Graham is naturally not an idle person.

Having suffered such a great insult, deep down, he had labeled these overseers dead.

If it weren't for the fear of the imperial court behind them, Grim would have sent these people to meet the beast god a long time ago.

"One by one, why are you still stunned, hurry up and speed up!"

"Idiot, don't waste time here, this dam is going to be opened up anyway, what are you doing so well?"

Graeme retorted.

Pig teammates are just amazing, no matter how hard they try, they can't take it. Let me do whatever I want, and I won't turn my head at all.

A mandatory order was issued from above, and it was necessary to catch up with the progress of the responsible bids. Grime, who was disgruntled, simply began to sacrifice the quality of the project, which was already small.

A similar scene is constantly playing out on the construction site. Seeing that the neighbors who were passive and slacking off completed their tasks ahead of schedule, they were forced to follow suit by the heavy burden of the task.

However, after the construction speed of the rolls out was temporarily satisfied by the supervisors, the amount of work tasks per day was also rising, and the corresponding project quality was also constantly lowering the lower limit.

When the water level is low, there is no danger, but with the heavy rain upstream last night, the dam quickly became precarious.

"Quickly notify the sacrificial group and immediately reinforce the dam!"

The lionman general hurriedly urged.

However, it was too late, and the river kept lapping against the dam. Where the earth dam built with earth can withstand this kind of devastation, and where the construction is not in place, holes soon appear.

One, two, three, four...... Soon the barrage became a sieve, and the water that had been accumulated for days poured out, as if it were about to swallow the whole world.

"The dam has collapsed!"

Hearing the exclamation, Graeme, who realized that the situation was not good, turned around and ran away without saying a word.

Then the collapse swept in, and the flood soon swept the entire dam, and countless orcs who were busy with construction were directly swallowed by the water.

Breaking free from the shackles of the dam, the downstream river channel could no longer accommodate so much flooding, and the water overflowed to both sides of the riverbed, and as far as the eye could see, there was a fertile country.

Fortress Satex, Hudson, who was still immersed in joy, suddenly sensed that something was wrong while inspecting the city defenses.

"Bear Stearns, what's that sound?"

Before the cub could go out to investigate, there was a great flood in the sky, which startled Hudson.

If he hadn't seen that the orc army outside the city hadn't evacuated, he would have thought that the plan had collapsed.

Soon the flood washed away the orc camp outside the city, and countless orc soldiers rushed to escape, but they still couldn't escape the fate of being swallowed by the water.

There was no time to gloat, and the flood swept over the fortress. There were too many leaks to be blocked, and soon the streets were covered with floodwater, and the water level was rising.
