Chapter 658: Putting the blame
Although what happened after the war was mentioned by Mo Yong with "no need to go into details", the facts are clear to everyone. Sensing the clues, he made the shockingly accurate judgment that "the opponent is most likely stalling for time to wait for the Griffin Dynasty to enter." The so-called "if they don't lose so quickly" is absolutely certain. thing!
It was precisely because he changed the battle plan without authorization that he led a few hundred people into the hinterland of Kunda Territory before the news was sent to Arthur and Fossey, and passed through extremely cruel The method confuses the enemy's hearing and hearing, allowing the rebel high-level officials to misjudge their number, allowing Arthur, who had been delayed for most of a long time to receive the news, to calmly adjust his offensive, further giving the opponent the illusion of a "three-pronged advance".
Everyone here knows very well that if Sin Lord and Arthur had made even the slightest mistake in that situation, or even lost a little bit of luck, the battle would have been impossible in a short time. It’s over in less than a month!
If the situation really develops to that point, as Mo said, if those rebels can persist for ten days and a half longer as they theoretically can
The answer is unquestionable. The Griffin Dynasty's Seventh Mixed Legion will definitely invade the Chauvin Empire directly through the Kunda Territory, and will immediately destroy the counter-rebellion forces led by Arthur and Fossey and then trap the special forces. Lorne, eat the entire eastern border of the Chauvin Empire.
And judging from the confidential letters later found in Emperor Thorn Castle, in addition to the Seventh Mixed Legion, the Third Legion stationed in the eastern border of the Griffin Dynasty will also arrive in the Chauvin Empire soon. Therefore, once the country is breached, no matter how capable William Bohe is, the best result will be to be defeated. Forced to negotiate with Griffin under the banner of 'justice', it is certain that the Eastern Territory will not come back. As for the future development, it is optimistic that Griffin will slowly erode it away in a few years to decades. Eventually, it will be reduced to a vassal in the form of a 'county'. As for the worse, it is also a greater possibility. Naturally, it will be directly destroyed.
This is a conclusion that everyone here can easily analyze.
So it is self-evident who the 'biggest beneficiary' in the Sin Lord's mouth is.
"You must know that according to the initial analysis, although we will win the war against rebellion, , but Marshal Galahad and Grand Duke Garros, who were under suspicion because of the death of His Majesty the God of Law, were not dispatched, which meant that the empire's strongest combat forces, the Knights of the Tsar's Sword and the Hurricane Mages, were unable to attack. .”
After pausing for a moment and taking a sip of red wine, Mo tapped the armrest of his chair while continuing to analyze his 'thoughts' for everyone: "Under the circumstances where the highest combat power cannot be used and the supply line is too long, with what the rebels were doing at the time, The arrangement made is very likely to contain us for about a month, and this is enough."
Because no one is stupid, Mo did not finish the sentence completely, but just pointed it out. He stopped here, and then bowed slightly to William Bohe, indicating that these were his thoughts.
Marquis Digory and Earl Moody sighed silently.
Marquis Clement and Marquis McBride, who were slower to respond, felt their whole bodies go cold when they heard this.
The leader of the ‘Seventh Army’, Earl Perkins, still had the same poker face, while Marquis Miranda Fisher crossed her legs and drank the remaining red wine in the glass with a wry smile.
"Mo and I have the same idea, father."
Arthur spread his hands and said to William in a deep voice: "This is not a joke, at least in my personal opinion, everything happened too much It's too strange, and the Griffin Dynasty has been spying on us for more than a day or two."
"Teacher Farah's power is not only within the empire, but his name is also as powerful as the Silver Alliance and Griffin. It is also well known in the dynasty."
Grand Duke Garros looked solemn and sighed: "In a large-scale war, an ordinary legendary knight and a dual-attribute great sage are completely different concepts. , so even though the Marshal is also a strong man at the legendary level, "
He shook his head and did not continue.
On the other hand, Galahad himself continued what Garros said calmly: "With Griffin's background, I can't count the number of legendary level players who can stabilize me with two hands, but even if they search the entire southwest, they will definitely find them." If there is no one who can defeat Farah, don’t forget that he is not an ordinary dual-sage sage, arcane and aerial. These two attributes are enough for him to kill any immature legendary class. In the previous battle in Banser City, if Farah's mental state was not very chaotic, even ten of me might not be able to defeat him. As for the Knights and the The mage group, even including Garros, is just a number.”
< br>"So once Master Farah is gone"
Marquis McBride clenched his fists hard and gritted his teeth: "Our trump card that makes others fear the most is gone."
>Arthur nodded, his face a little stiff: "Then there is the bad reputation of the Griffin Dynasty. , if the division is unknown, it is likely to be checked and balanced by the Silver Alliance, the Dreamland Theocracy, Adolf Free Territory and other forces, so he needs a name."
"And because of the deaths of Prince Kunda and Duke Witham, it broke out The rebellion can give them a perfect name.”
Li Fo's shadow shrugged and said in a deep voice: "So this series of vicious events has to be explained, right?"
Arthur nodded slowly: "At least this possibility exists. "
"But."
Marquis Clement frowned uneasily and asked Li Fu: "Are you not saying that the author of these things is the one predicted by Tianzhu Mountain? That uh. That very evil existence?"
Li Fo glanced at him and replied lightly: "Evil is just a term that is convenient for everyone to understand, based on the prophecy relayed to me by the narrator. From the looks of it, that existence seems to be a combination of a certain phenomenon and life. Yes, it is also a life that is no different from us. It just causes or affects destruction and disaster that no one can predict. In short, it is not a simple Natural phenomena, let alone those beasts that are simpler than natural phenomena, so it is not surprising even if there is a 'position'."
"That is to say."
Arthur turned to look at Li Fu.
"Even if the other party cooperates with the Griffin Dynasty, it is not impossible."
The latter gave an affirmative answer.
William also nodded slightly to Arthur and Mo, and said seriously: "That's right. Although this may be just a push by Griffin, there is also a high possibility that they did it deliberately. , so. No matter what, we must make a trial, Jude.”
"Yes."
Grand Duke Fosai responded immediately.
"Be prepared. After a while, you will go to the Griffin Dynasty on behalf of the empire and use the secret message we found in Emperor Thorn Castle to briefly inquire."
William said decisively. The order was obviously not made on the spur of the moment: "You can decide the scale yourself, but don't push it too hard. It's a sure thing that they won't admit it. I don't ask for any profit from it, as long as you can collect some corresponding intelligence." , Perkins and Diggory will fully support you."
Fossey took a deep breath, and then replied decisively: "Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Very good, I will write to the Blood Lion King tomorrow."
William nodded with satisfaction, stood up and smiled: "Believe me, gentlemen, we will not remain passive forever."
"And ladies."
Miranda, who stood up with the others, wrinkled her nose in displeasure.
“Yes, and our ever-beautiful Ms. Miranda Fisher.”
William laughed and raised his glass: "Then, let us drink to Chauvin's future and to Ms. Miranda's beauty!"
"For Chauvin! To Ms. Miranda!"
Everyone laughed, but Miranda was particularly loud when she said 'for Ms. Miranda'.
Then
“Okay, let’s stop here today.”
William put down the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile: "Now we."
"Please wait, father!" As a result, Arthur, who had been looking a little strange since just now, interrupted William loudly, with a firm look in his eyes. Staring at his father, he said word by word: "I hope to go to the Griffin Dynasty in place of Grand Duke Fossey!"
[What? ! 】
Everyone was stunned, wondering if they heard it wrong, while Mo and Miranda simultaneously looked at Arthur, who had an extremely firm expression, and sighed softly.
"Go to Griffin instead of Jude?"
William was also slightly stunned, frowning and said: "You must give me a reasonable explanation, kid."
Arthur took a deep breath In a deep voice, he said: "Because there is no Duke Fosset. Being familiar with me makes it easier for the other party to lower their vigilance. In addition, as I am the prince of the empire, it is easy for Griffin to ignore the core purpose of this mission. After all, under normal circumstances, investigating key intelligence involves putting oneself at risk. Things are not what a prince should do, this will Letting the other party think that we are more inclined to protest in a symbolic sense will not only make the operation smoother, but even if I am exposed, my chance of coming back alive is far greater than that of Duke Fossey. After all, I am your only son. Killing me is almost the same. Yu Xiangquandi The country declared war, so Griffin, who just failed once, should not"
"Okay, Arthur"
William smiled and nodded: "I have to admit, you. That makes sense.”
Arthur's eyes lit up: "That"
"But this statement is still too far-fetched, and as your father, I know very well that what you just said is definitely not. At least it is not exactly what you said this time. The real reason for the request.”
William picked up the bottle and filled it up for Arthur himself. cup, shrugged and said: "Give me a reason why I have to send you instead of Jude."
Arthur drank the full glass of wine in his hand, and his face turned red and white. Several times, I opened my mouth several times under William's questioning gaze, but not even a word came out.
“Forget it, Your Highness.”
Mo smiled bitterly and said something behind Arthur, patting his shoulder lightly.
The latter looked back at his friend with great difficulty, shook his head with great difficulty, and then turned back to William, whose eyes were full of curiosity, but still didn't say a word.
What makes him even more uncomfortable is that all the eyes in the entire side hall have been focused on him, burning his face, which is not actually thin.
Ten seconds passed. Looking at Arthur who was almost petrified, Marquis Miranda broke the silence with a scream that was not too high in decibels!
“Ahhh! That’s enough.”
She held Arthur's shoulders, turned to Emperor William with a smile and said solemnly: "My dear, slow, busy majesty, the reason is actually very, very simple, that is our prince His Highness has had a soft spot for the Princess of the Griffin Dynasty a few years ago!”
Click! !
Two non-existent thunders flashed past. William Bohe and Arthur Bohe and his son froze in place at the same time. Others around them also widened their eyes and looked at it in disbelief. The future king of the empire in front of him looked like pieces of seafood being fished ashore by a fisherman.
“Cough”
Mo coughed lightly and seemed to want to continue to say something to Arthur. However, the room was too quiet at this moment and he did not intend to be among the crowd. The guilty prince had no choice but to give up.
Half a minute later
Emperor William, who was the first to come back to his senses, first looked at Miranda with a particularly strange expression: "What? Mimi, if you were driving just now"
" You can tell if I'm joking just by looking at His Highness Arthur's face."
Marquis Miranda shrugged and glanced at Arthur slightly. He smiled and said: "Okay, Your Highness, we are all our own people here anyway, I think it's time for you to tell everyone your little thoughts. Think about it, you are twenty-five years old this year and you have not been in love once. You have also turned away so many suitors who are devoted to you, and during this period, you are still having a fierce fight with Lord Sin.”
“Ahem!”
Mo coughed heavily, looking very embarrassed.
"Well, besides, you hit it off with Lord Sin a while ago, and even advised His Majesty to promote him to a hereditary earl for His Majesty's sake~"
Miranda playfully said He blinked at Arthur and smiled: "There is no guarantee that everyone will not think wildly. For example, His Majesty..."
"Nonsense!"
William glared at Miranda and blew his beard. He stared and said: "How often have I had random thoughts?"
Perhaps because the official conversation was over, Ms. Miranda Fisher's respect index for the emperor had dropped sharply. In short, she said without thinking: "But the queen just told me two days ago that you are very worried." "
"Mimi, please stop saying a few words!"
Duke Fossey immediately interrupted her and sneered helplessly at William and Arthur, who both looked green and white. Two sounds.
After that, there was another long silence
"Child, you have to understand, you see you are so old."
William glanced at Arthur awkwardly, with a complicated expression.
“I like the opposite sex!”
Arthur roared with a red face, and his SAN value was about to be cleared.
“Like the princess of the Griffin Dynasty?”
“Yes!”
"Uh, could it be that Eliza?"
"No! No! It's Gavel! Gavel Logan! No way?!"
