Volume 1 Threesome Chapter 116 The Flames of Civil War
Flowing Water County, a key town on the border of the Grand Duchy of Hamilton.
It is located on the side of the canal "Dyme" that runs through the whole territory of the Principality of Belmar, has a perfect wharf and shipping mechanism, and is located at the junction of the territory of the Hamilton family and several royal nobles, and then more than 50 kilometers to the north, it is the border of the Seth family, many smugglers will come here to rest, it can be said that the traffic extends in all directions, extremely convenient, and is a typical commercial town.
The Hamilton family's permanent strength here is also much higher than that of ordinary counties, but reaches the standard of a small town, with a garrison of 2,000 men.
You must know that the average nobleman with the title of earl only has 3,000 garrisons in the main city. Two thousand is already a considerable number.
With such a garrison in place, the average nobles did not dare to attack the idea of Liushui County.
However, when Fina and Midi returned to Rose Hill City to wrestle and negotiate with the Seven Branches, the Seth family brazenly sent troops, both land and water, tens of thousands of troops broke through the border for nearly fifty kilometers, directly into the territory of the Hamilton family, and then took this important town in one day
In the past, the two major families often had friction on the border, and there were even confrontations and battles on the scale of thousands of people
But this time, it was an attack by tens of thousands of people, and it went deep into the territory of the Hamilton family
It can be said that this is no longer the level of friction, but war in the true sense of the word.
At the same time as they saw the secret report, almost everyone could tell that the civil war in the Duchy of Belmar broke out without warning.
As for the loss of the Red Flame Legion, the Seth family, which has always been at a disadvantage, dares to take the initiative to ignite the war at this time, and the reason is very simple.
Because the Iron Lord has fallen.
The Hamilton family, which has lost its backbone, will inevitably become sluggish to react, and may even produce high-level turmoil.
And with the outbreak of war, all conspiracies and tricks seem to have been revealed-
It was the Seth family who sniped the transport of the Mandala Human-Faced Grass, causing the Iron Bloody Grand Duke to become ill.
It was the Seth family who secretly poisoned Martin and turned him into a berserker in the "War of Honor", hoping to kill both Midi and Martin in one battle.
All the evidence and motives point to the old rivals of the Queen's faction, the Seth family. It's also logical, because everything is controlled by the Seth family behind the scenes, so they can so accurately choke the moment when Hamilton's dragons are leaderless, and launch an attack at the most opportune time.
All explanations are logical, but Midi always feels that something is wrong.
The conspiracy is so obvious that it is difficult to call it a conspiracy.
And more importantly, if the Seth family really had so much energy to make the Iron and Blood Grand Duke critically ill through covert operations, and at the same time intervene in the battle of honor in the city of Rose Mountain, thousands of miles away, then it would have become the number one nobleman in the Duchy of Belmar, why would it have been falling behind in the struggle for a hundred years?
Faintly, Midi felt as if a pair of gloomy and indifferent eyes were watching the vast land of the Duchy, watching and even instigating a civil war, just to reap the benefits of the Queen's faction and the parliamentarians' faction when they were both defeated.
Who could it be?
Delos Empire?
Or is it something else hidden in the shadows?
Midi swept through several possible factors in her mind, but she still couldn't come up with a definite conclusion
After all, in the civil war of the Principality of Belmar, who doesn't want to take the opportunity to make a profit? But how much ambition, how much ability, how much layout has been before, and how much energy there is, these factors, even Midi can't judge.
Although it is a reborn person or not, Midi was just a nameless small character in the civil war in the previous life, and many high-level intelligence could not be reached, and he just went with the flow. So what he can do in this life is only to work backwards according to the outcome of the year.
But now, as you become angry and change your fate after being reborn, the impact of the butterfly effect is becoming more and more great, and the future is like a lighthouse in the fog, where you can dimly see the light, but it is always difficult to capture the right place.
It seems that it is necessary to find ways to make the group of black hands behind the scenes show their feet in the next war
In her heart, Midi secretly set a strategy.
However, this strategy also faces a problem - will the strongest elite soldiers of the Hamilton family, the "Golden Bough" Legion, known as the First Legion of the Duchy of Belmar, be willing to obey the orders of their own outsiders?
Thinking like this, a huge fortress like a dormant dragon appeared in the sight of Midi and his party
The Fulong Fortress, with 25,000 elite soldiers, is the first fortress of the principality in the northern part of the Duchy of Belmar.
The headquarters of the Golden Bough Legion.
As the name suggests, even if a dragon comes, it has to lie on its stomach here
This is the confidence and domineering of the Golden Bough Army.
In the magnificent battle hall supported by huge columns that neither of them could embrace, the generals of the Golden Bough Legion of more than 5,000 men lined up. Some of them are talented young talents, and some are famous veterans who have experienced a hundred battles, and they are of different ages, but what they have in common is the iron-blooded smell of decisiveness that emanates from their bones.
Standing in this hall, looking at the countless swords and flags decorated on the walls, and looking at these solemn-looking, heavily armed, sword-holding hilts, standing as tall as javelins, no matter who they are, they will have the illusion that they are on the battlefield of gunpowder at this moment.
All the generals were present, and in the past, this was the situation when the Golden Bough Army was mobilized.
Without any fancy etiquette, without any nonsense and greetings, the only thing the generals need to know is who they need to crush in this war.
This time, the rules are the same, but the person sitting in the commander-in-chief position has changed.
is no longer the iron-blooded Grand Duke who makes people look up to him, but has become a heroic red-haired girl.
For Fina Hamilton, the generals had no opinion.
At the age of eighteen, she reached an incredible level 3, and one person conquered a city in one day, and was known as the "Queen of Magic Bullets". These qualifications, achievements, talents, and status as the first heir to the orthodox Hamilton, combined with the cheerfulness and strength of character, were enough to ⊥ these generals who were good at war and had no interest in politics were extremely satisfied.
They believed that their allegiance to such a monarch would lead to a more brilliant future. Many of them were belligerent and even privately believed that in the near future, this girl would eventually become the number one person in the duchy who was not inferior to the iron-blooded Grand Duke, and a veritable "queen" who ruled the duchy.
It's just that the black-haired boy next to Fina made the generals mutter.
Midi Asrex, who was originally just the son of the Count, was inconspicuous, and could even be said to be the most scummy gentleman, and the encounter with Fina was forced by the councillors to drag them back, which was a complete joke.
However, it was such a miscellaneous fish-level nobody, and now, he had also reached level 3 at the age of eighteen, and his qualifications and achievements were not below Fina at all. If you want to talk about the speed of the jump, it can even be said that it far exceeds the already famous Magic Bullet Queen, which is completely rocket-level.
Not only that, but in that battle of honor in the Colosseum a few days ago, his performance was even more shocking
He actually defeated Martin, the "first person in fencing", and even played the Thunder Whip hole card, and then went crazy Martin, what kind of combat power level is this? I'm afraid he can already compete with those cappers at level 6, right?
Not to mention, a lot of gossip and gossip pointed out that the identity of Midi's guardian knight is just a cover, and the relationship between him and Fina is not a young lady-knight's allegiance, nor is it a simple comrade-in-arms, but a close lovers
Forget about these, the most important thing is the aura of a "genius commander" that Midi has.
Generals have little interest in political power struggles or gossip - let you cheat and cheat, and when you go to the battlefield with real knives and guns, don't you have to rely on the soldiers?
However, military power is a different matter. This is the most sensitive thing for the generals, and it is also the thing they are least willing to let others touch. They accept the existence of the sovereign, and are willing to fight for the sovereign at all costs, even with their lives, but the battle itself does not allow others to interfere.
Now that this young but rising "genius commander" is here, what is he going to do?
In the general's mind, there is such a question.
Looking at these generals who stood as solemn as iron statues, feeling the heavy and substantial aura of soldiers, Midi looked calm, and even raised a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
He's seen too many scenes like this.
In the previous life, as huge ruins and dungeons continued to emerge from the world, and as more and more powerful forces rose, the scale of the war also increased. Many times, what is needed is joint operations
As a well-known coalition commander, Midi can be said to have long been able to make perfect how to integrate these generals who are extremely sensitive to military power.
In fact, the method is very simple - just win, keep winning
The generals guarding the military power are like guarding a piece of cake, and if someone comes to share it, they will naturally be resisted.
But what if you make the cake so big that it is much bigger than it should be?
It is not to share the cake, but to provide a bigger cake, a broader stage, and a record and reputation that everyone praises. To this extent, let alone the power of the army, I am afraid that the generals will have to fight under the command of Midi.
In the final analysis, everything comes from strength.
"The current battle situation is severe, Seth's Black Flame Legion occupies Flowing Water County, and we must start counterattacking as soon as possible. Fina began with a calm voice, and then, turning her gaze to the dark-haired boy she trusted, and even relied on, "Midi, what do you think we should do?"
