Chapter 311 Monsters in Nord Province
Thank you very much to Qidian’s dad [Sanqianlan] for the 100 reward!

"Good job, Wanda."
Cato had no absolute confidence in Wanda's ability to obey his orders. Now that he received the news, he was of course very happy.
What was even more satisfying to Gatugen was that Wanda was very thorough in handling the matter. Instead of sending the news of the fall of the high wall in person, she handed it over to the neighboring nobles.
Authenticity goes way up.
I didn’t expect that a person who usually seems quite straightforward would be so thoughtful.
Taking out the proposal that had been prepared in the drawer, Gatuggen put on his dress, got into the carriage and drove to the Whirlpool Palace.
The principality has not experienced war for 40 years, which is a good thing for everyone in the principality.
But for the principality itself, it's a different story.
As long as the continent of Middles is still full of countries, the war will never stop.
And if a war really breaks out that sweeps the entire continent, Eivor will not be able to survive alone.
If you want to survive, you must have a strong military.
Therefore, Gatugen has always wanted to push the principality to strengthen its military strength.
But apart from him, neither the nobles nor the Grand Duke himself had this motivation.
"This is a good opportunity."
Since the news is that the Wall of Sigh has fallen, then we can use this as an excuse to mobilize the soldiers of the principality——
About 100,000, move to the front line to sharpen your skills, and take turns playing with that little guy Raven.
As long as we can train 30,000 to 50,000 elites, we can ensure the peace of the principality for decades to come!
Thinking of this, Gatugen showed a smile on his face:
"I hope you have the strength to match your bold words, Baron Raven."
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the palace. Gatugen suppressed his smile, picked up the documents, and walked into the palace gate.
Gatugen had the right to ride a carriage in the palace, but he never did so. Instead, he insisted on adhering to the etiquette that a minister should have.
All the way to the meeting hall, you can hear a quarrel from a distance.
It seems that His Highness the Grand Duke has received the news of the fall of the Sigh Wall.
With a smile in his heart, Gatugen pushed open the door and entered the meeting hall.
The roar of Eivor VIII came towards him.
"You can't do this, and you can't think of that. You are the generalissimo of the principality!!!"
His Royal Highness the Grand Duke was sitting on a high-backed red satin chair decorated with gems, holding the armrest tightly with one hand. The veins on the back of his hand were exposed, and his body was shaking.
His lips were pursed, his teeth slightly exposed, and his eyelids were twitching, as if he wanted to eat Quentin alive.
Seeing Gatugen coming in, Eivor VIII seemed to finally heave a sigh of relief, and his tone became much softer: "Prime Minister, you are finally here!"
"Hurry, sit down quickly."
"That person, immediately hand over the letter I drafted to the Prime Minister for review to see if there is anything inappropriate!"
Gatugen was polite, but sat on the chair under Quentin's murderous gaze. He had just received the document from the palace servant, and heard Eivor VIII say:
"Sighing that the wall is falling, this is no small matter. I won't argue with you about the appointment of the cabinet. Whoever you say will be who you say."
"The most urgent thing now is to quickly send troops to the front line to support us. How many people do you think we should send? Fifty thousand people? One hundred thousand people? Do my guards have to go up too?"
Gatugen raised his head and said: "Your Highness, Raven will not attack Blue Castle now. Please let me read it first. How about we talk about it one by one?"
Normally, Eivor VIII would be dissatisfied, but this time he was extremely obedient and even smiled: "Look, look, I won't disturb you!"
Did you go too far?
Gatugen reflected for a moment, and then felt that there was nothing wrong with maintaining the status quo. He lowered his head to see what Eivor VIII had prepared.
This is a letter of distress sent to the leader of the Feton city-states, the "Kingdom of Feton".
The letter mentioned that it hoped that the Fiton Kingdom could make stern representations to the Cairns Empire in the name of the entire alliance and ask Raven to withdraw its troops immediately.
For this, the Principality of Eivor is willing to pay any price.
After reading this letter, Gatugen had only one thought in his mind:
It was broken, and His Highness was frightened out of his wits!
The starting point of all Gatugen's plans is for the principality. Now, for a mere Raven, the overall interests of the principality must be harmed. This is not what Gatugen wants.
"Your Highness, there is nothing wrong with the wording of this letter, and it is necessary to negotiate with the Keynes Empire."
"However, the situation has not deteriorated to that point..." Eivor VIII said: "How could it not be? I sigh that the high wall has stood for 400 years, a full 400 years! It is a witness to the history of the Principality!"
"Now it fell in one night. God knows what terrifying thing Raven has in his hands!"
"Your Majesty Prime Minister, I know I have done a lot wrong in the past, but now is not the time for you and me to fight each other!"
When these words came out, Quentin's face suddenly turned livid, which almost meant that he would inevitably be replaced.
And based on what he did before, if he didn't have the power of the Grand Marshal to back him up...
At this moment, Gatugen stood up and said something that he would never forget in his life.
"Your Highness, please don't panic."
"Sigh, the wall did not fall. This news was actually deliberately forged by Count Wanda under my command."
The appointment of the Finance Minister is optional.
Now that Eivor VIII has realized the important consequences of lamenting the fall of the Wall, he will definitely pay more attention to military development in the future.
That's why Gatuggen has to point this out.

Otherwise, according to Eivor VIII's current state, the entire country will be messed up by him.
However, what awaited Gatugen was not Eivor's scolding, and the entire meeting hall fell into an eerie silence.
Gatugen raised his head and saw the color on Eivor VIII's face changing several times:
"So...Wanda's death is also part of your plan?"
"What?" Gatugen was shocked. There was no such part in the plan!
"Wanda is dead!?"
Quentin gave Gatugen a meaningful look: "...a baron from Iron Birch County caught the soldiers who fled from the Wall of Sighs and obtained first-hand information."
As he said that, someone placed a document in front of Gatugen.
Gatuggen looked at it carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became.
Wanda died, sighing that the high wall collapsed. The heads of the soldiers who died in battle were piled into totems with inexplicable meanings. The captured soldiers had their thumbs chopped off and released...
This is not news that can be faked.
Sigh the wall has really fallen! ?
Raven does have the strength to match his bold ambitions, but the price of this verification is too high.
It’s so big that the principality can’t bear it!
Gatugen felt a chill in his back for a moment:
"This... Your Highness, I really don't know this."
Eivor VIII showed a hint of sarcasm in his eyes:
"Oh, it turns out that there are things in the principality that the Prime Minister doesn't know about."
"Do you know now!?"
"Now that you know it, think of countermeasures quickly! I don't care what you did before, now I want a way to take back the Wall of Sighs!"
The condemnation in his words deeply hurt Gatuggen, but he still advised:
"Leiwen's strength is only 10,000. Please stay rational, Your Highness. We can slowly discuss a strategy."
Eivor VIII also knew that there was no point in just being anxious about many things, but whether he was lamenting the fact that the wall fell or the "betrayal" of the loyal man Gatugen, he was furious.
He rushed off the high-backed chair and reached out to pull out the map on the wooden board beside him:
"What is falling now is not other places, but the high wall of sighs!"
"The principality has been in business for 400 years, and millions of gold coins have been spent. Even fifth-level magic cannot shake the sighing wall!"
"It's such a fortress, and with Wanda, a fourth-level powerhouse, two legions of 10,000 troops couldn't defend it for even a day!"
"Now you want me to be rational, how can you want me to be rational!?"
With a bang, Eivor VIII pressed his fingers on the high wall of sighs:
"After Tiehua District, there is Bolan District! Do you need me to remind you of the importance of Bolan Gold Mine!?"
"The annual output of 23,000 pounds of gold can mint 1.2 million gold coins!!!"
"Now, come up with a solution for me immediately!"
"Stop, capture, and kill Raven!"
"Get rid of this one...
Monsters from Nord Province! ”
