"Ah, what, me?" Linya was just thinking about her own thoughts, when she heard her father's call, and then came back to her senses.

That hateful Rofitte...... Is it really coming? How can we punish this nasty fellow? We must think of the most relieving way to torture him!

"Ah, I've thought about it, Father. Linya sorted out her thoughts and said, "Father, what are you marrying me to the Bright Moon Empire last time?"

Emperor Herman was a little apologetic again, and replied truthfully: "The purpose of the marriage is, of course, to establish an alliance with the Mingyue Empire in order to jointly annex Cessnia. ”

"Of course you understand the purpose of the Bright Moon Empire's marriage with us, right?"

"Of course, they're also for the Rogia. Join us in dividing up the Cessnia-Rogia region. Emperor Hermann said with certainty.

After getting the news of the visit of the Emperor of the Bright Moon Empire, Linya also found maps and other materials to carefully inspect and analyze.

The Cessnia Plain is a fertile plain located on the northeastern shore of the Earth's Heart Sea, with the Sierra Mountains rising to the east, the Momiji Empire to the north and northwest, and Rogia across the Rowland Strait to the south. The entire Cessnia Plain region has abundant rain, numerous rivers, and abundant food products, and has always been the object of coveted by the Momiji Empire, which lacks a grain production area.

The Rogia region is located on the eastern shore of the Inner Sea, south of which is the Emerald Plains, and has a long land border with the Bright Moon Empire. The region of Rogia is actually made up of numerous peninsulas, with a long and winding coastline, a mixed terrain composed mainly of plains and hills, rich in mineral and marine resources, and has many excellent ports and excellent transportation. Although the Bright Moon Empire owns the entire Emerald Plain, it is a pity that the Bright Moon Empire's mouth to the sea in the heart of the sea is blocked by the branches of the Karn Mountains, and the communication with the mainland is very inconvenient. As a result, the city of Searle did not become a center of commerce and trade like Ryan and Lu Yun. This is where the heart disease of the Bright Moon Empire lies.

The Rogia region has thus become the meal that the Bright Moon Empire has always wanted to swallow.

The Cessnia region is separated from the Rogia by the narrow Roland Strait, but bridges have long been built over the strait to connect the northern and southern violet continents. Located on the southern shore of the Roland Strait, where the Roland Bridge is located, the city of Qiyan has become a transportation and trade center and a military center.

The Cessnia and Rogia regions are divided and occupied by several small and medium-sized states, but there has never been a strong national power that can unify them. However, due to the great threat from the outside empire, the countries here have always had a tradition of solidarity with the outside world, often forming alliances to resist the tentative attacks of the empire in order to protect themselves. And neither the Red Leaf Empire nor the Bright Moon Empire had the ability to swallow these countries in one go, there had been some temptations before, but in the end they were forced to give up that plan.

But if the Momiji Empire and the Momiji Empire join forces to attack from both sides, the situation will be completely different. The news of the marriage between the two countries some time ago really frightened these countries.

"It is bordered by the center of the sea in the west, the Roland Pass in the east, and the Roland Strait, which is a land and sea transportation hub. From the Sea of Confusion through the Emerald Plains to open the passage to the Northern Violet, if you can get the Strange Rock City, those people in the Bright Moon Empire will probably wake up laughing in their dreams!"

"Yes, since the unification of the Emerald Plains, the dream of the Bright Moon Empire has always been working towards Qiyan City. The ministers could also see this, and very much agreed with Linya's opinion.

"Although we broke the marriage contract first, it did not damage the foundation of cooperation between the two countries. But the diplomatic insult caused by what Rofitte did seriously damaged the relationship between the two countries. Therefore, if these two things are compared, the Bright Moon Empire is obviously at a loss and has to bear greater responsibility. If the Bright Moon Empire still wants Qiyan City, it will have to rely on the power of the Red Leaf Empire, so it is completely understandable that Emperor Claire personally brought Roffet to apologize. Linya continued to analyze.

"Yes, yes, obviously the Bright Moon Empire is more anxious than us. The ministers also agreed with Linya.

"As for Ambassador Mingyue's inappropriate behavior, it can actually be completely explained. Don't have any naïve illusions about Claire's old fox, if I'm not mistaken, the Bright Moon Empire will definitely excuse this ambassador's diplomatic threat on the grounds of the ambassador's assertions. The Red Leaf Empire is now facing great pressure and predicament from the Holy See, and the Bright Moon Empire may want to take the opportunity to extort more benefits from us in exchange for their support for us, and the benefits that can be shared in the joint partition of Cessnia-Rogia. As for the ambassador's behavior, it was just a stepping stone that they had already designed. It's just that they didn't expect that their father would be so wise to see through and foil their plot!" Linya opened the conversation, and those thoughts seemed to pop out of her heart.

Hearing his daughter praise himself like this, Emperor Hermann couldn't help but blush. Although they both knew that it wasn't like that, they were just impulsive at that time because of their love for their daughter.

But when these words came out of the mouth of her daughter, they were very useful.

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty's wise approach has completely thwarted the Bright Moon Empire's attempt to take the opportunity to extort our interests, and on the contrary, it has given us another diplomatic insult! ”

"Ambassador Mingyue's approach is completely to test our bottom line, so as to facilitate negotiations between the two sides in the future, and the time is well grasped within the gap between the transmission of information, which is clearly a plot!

Listening to the ministers taking the opportunity to offer overt or implicit praise to their father, Linya also had to admire these guys. Those who have the ability will not necessarily be reused. And people who can only speak beautiful words do not necessarily get promoted.

But these ministers of the father and emperor are all shrewd and capable in doing things, and they don't let people get behind one by one when they pat themselves. It is difficult for such talents not to be reused! Therefore, no matter what era it is, ability and communication are compulsory courses!

"Also, I heard from my father a few days ago about the cancellation of the share of war horse trade allocated to the Mingyue Empire, I think this is the sore foot of the Mingyue Empire, and it is a place where we can take advantage of it. Linya thought about it again.

The matter of war horses is actually not complicated. Before the advent of the era of hot weapons, from the age of barbarism to the age of exploration, cavalry has always played a strategic role in human warfare with its ultra-high mobility and unstoppable impact. An army with a strong cavalry is something that can be feared and frightened by anyone.

Because of this, whether in ancient China or Europe, the nomadic people with strong cavalry and cavalry tactics were the nightmare of those agrarian civilizations. In Noah's world, which was still in the feudal era, this situation was even more obvious. Cavalry gradually became the master of the battlefield, the key to determining victory or defeat, and an indispensable arm in any war.

Corresponding to its great ability is the high cost of this class. Horses, one of the most important elements that make up the cavalry, are an extremely special strategic resource. War horses require extremely high qualifications for horses, and unlike timber and iron ore, which can be produced and mined everywhere, the most robust war horses can only be grown in fertile grasslands.

The war horse itself is a very valuable material, and the cost of maintenance is extremely expensive, and it is also time-sensitive and needs to be constantly updated. This makes it costly for any army to maintain a standing cavalry force.

Fortunately, these troubles are not too much of a problem for the Momiji Empire. The vast grasslands of the northern part of the Momiji Empire are the best pastures on the entire continent, where fresh and dense pastures grow, and the most robust and swift high-quality war horses on the entire continent are produced.

As a result, the Momiji Empire was able to assemble a large cavalry force, and the infantry was only used as an auxiliary force here. This is unique on the entire continent. Therefore, the combat power of the Red Leaf Empire's army must not be measured purely by numbers like other countries.

Of course, the war horse trade is also one of the important sources of trade profits for the Red Leaf Empire. Due to the fact that the Red Leaf Empire completely occupied the entire grassland of the North Violet Continent, the Red Leaf Empire also completely monopolized the trade source of the Northern Violet Grassland War Horse. The war horse trade allowed the Red Leaf Empire to earn at least 60,000 gold coins per year, accounting for one-fifth of the empire's total revenue.

The war horses produced by all other regions on the Violet Continent are completely incomparable to the Red Leaf Empire in terms of quantity and quality, and even if they are all combined, they are less than half of the Red Leaf Empire's output, which is of course far from enough. Due to its complete monopoly position on this special strategic resource, the Momiji Empire was able to make huge profits as a result.

The huge profits, in turn, contributed to the prosperity of war horse breeding, and now the Red Leaf Empire has a breeding capacity of up to 2 million horses, of which as many as 1 million adult horses are qualified as war horses. This is an unbelievably large asset in any other country. Moreover, this strategic reserve resource is itself a huge strategic deterrent.
