Chapter 160 Current Situation
In this way, the twenty Lionheart Knights sent by the Principality of Bosque were all wiped out. As one of the seven knight captains, Fried, the "Black Lion Knight", even became a traitor and became a minion of the Red Dragon.
The fate of the more than a hundred double-headed eagle warriors sent by the Principality of Norton was even more tragic - Cassius didn't even bother to take action himself. He just casually issued a camp mission and dispatched a few red-scale conquerors to kill most of them. The so-called "elites" who were not even professionals were destroyed, and those excited flying dragons burned them to charcoal without mercy.
Cassius was lying in the hall, looking at the map of Anzetta in front of him, especially the small country next to the Ember Kingdom.
In front of the Kingdom of Burning Ember, which combines the territory of Storm Peak and the former Rachman Principality, and far exceeds the vast territory of most principalities in the North, the Norton Principality is like an insect that can be crushed at any time.
Dalena stood aside. This graceful pure-blood snake man was wearing a formal suit and always had a bright smile on his face.
"Forget it about the Principality of Bosque, but this is the Principality of Norton"
"Where did they get the courage to provoke me again and again?"
Cassius's voice was filled with confusion.
Dalena thought to herself that you have forced the Principality of Norton to hand over the so-called "international trusteeship". Of course they have to fight to the death, but she still explained carefully with a professional smile:
"The Principality of Norton has a narrow territory and weak strength. In fact, it is more like a vassal state of the Principality of Bosque. It is even nicknamed the 'Norton Principality' and the 'Barbarian Tribe' by other northern nobles."
"They are not the Scanyans to whom the nobles of the North belong, but the aboriginal people of the north, also known as the Vaal barbarians. Seven hundred years ago, the then Grand Duke of the Principality of Bosque, "Lion-Hearted King" Aubrey After Ke conquered this place, in order to facilitate management, he established the surrendered tribe as a country here and changed the surname of the tribal chief clan to Norton."
"However, over the past four hundred years, with the conscious assimilation of the Scanians, the language, customs and habits of the Principality of Norton have become almost the same as those of the Northland countries. Even the surname Norton has long been accepted by the Northland nobles."
Cassius suddenly realized.
"It turned out to be a good dog raised in the Principality of Bosque."
Dalena immediately praised her repeatedly: "Your Highness Cassius, your summary is really profound and simple."
"So what do you want to do with the Principality of Bosque and the Principality of Norton?"
Although Dalena is temporarily responsible for the diplomatic affairs of the Ember Kingdom, the general direction still needs to be decided by the red dragon. She knows this very well. She will not make fun of her own future or even her life for the sake of temporary power.
Cassius tried to recall the memories of his past life.
The Principality of Bosque is too big, with an area of tens of thousands of square kilometers and twenty-eight cities. It is already difficult for the Burning Ember Kingdom to rule the former Lacman Principality. It has not fully digested its legacy and is not strong enough to rule such a large country. Vast area.
What's more, the Holy Fadlan Empire still has a few years to shine after this great rebellion. Once it officially declares war on the Principality of Bosque, it will inevitably trigger a full-scale war in the entire Anzeta. At that time, it will inevitably cause the Holy Fadlan Empire to send out Legendary power intervenes.
At the same time, Cassius now has only a few thousand players, and these beta players will temporarily disappear within the next four years.
The time point Cassius envisioned for unifying the North was five years later.
Yes, five years later.
At that time, the great disintegration of Holy Fadlan began, and the various forces in the south competed for the huge remains of the empire and had no time to look north. Cassius's strength is expected to be promoted to the legendary level, with sufficient hard power guarantee. And 30,000 official players will also flock to Erezegai, and he is confident that he can attract at least 10,000 of them to serve him.
This plan has been discussed for many times within the Burning Ember Kingdom and has become almost perfect.
At that time, the weather, location, and people were all taken into consideration.
Cassius will declare war on all the countries in the North including the Principality of Bosk, unify the entire North with a crushing attitude, become the co-owner of Anzeta, and will also bring all players in the [Northland Storm] version under his rule .
Immediately afterwards, the Kingdom of Burning Ember, or rather the Empire, can move south and participate in the disputes between kings as a spoiler, becoming the greediest vulture carving up the remains of the Holy Fadland Empire.
This was his plan for the Principality of Bosque. And the Principality of Norton?
They are weak, adjacent to the Kingdom of Burning Ember, and a vassal of the Principality of Bosque. They can be a tool for the Kingdom of Burning Ember to scare others, deter other countries in the North, and strive for stable development space.
At the same time, this level of local war can also provide eye drops to the Principality of Bosque, reminding them to reduce their secret actions.
Thinking of this, Cassius said categorically: "Annex it as quickly as possible, without leaving any time for the countries in the North to react."
"I want to kill the 'chicken' of the Duke of Norton and show it to those monkeys who are sensationalizing."
Hearing this, Dalena's face was filled with excitement.
Although she didn't know the allusion of killing a chicken to scare a monkey, she easily understood the meaning of Cassius's words.
What a wonderful feeling, deciding the fate of another country. Those human lords who used to ask her to please her in every possible way now only deserve to kneel at her feet and cry for mercy.
"Yes, Master."
"I will definitely let them understand the consequences of provoking you."
Dalena half-knelt on the ground, with an expectant smile in her eyes, and licked her dry lips with her forked tongue.
Several months have passed since the conquest of the Lachman Principality. The Burning Ember Kingdom is now barely able to operate normally, but those Dragon Vein Familia have been suppressed for a long time.
Although their lives have become much richer after snatching away all the wealth of the nobles, these guys with bad nature still enjoy the baptism of blood and fire more than a stable and wealthy life.
War is not a burden for this country ruled by the red dragon, but an outlet.
Duchy of Bosque, Strafbourg.
As the capital of Bosque and the nominal capital of the entire Northland, it is always bustling and lively.
In the center of the city, Obrik Square, named in memory of the first Archduke Bosque, is crowded with traders, singers, bards, children of nobles and other people of all kinds.
There was a sudden commotion in the crowd.
Flying dragons were seen flying high in the sky beyond the reach of arrows, and Ember Kingdom leaflets were scattered from the sky. People were somewhat accustomed to this, and some were even rushed to Archduke Leo's residence.
But this time the content was not the usual boring propaganda, but a battle report.
It was jaw-dropping and much debated.
"Someone really went to assassinate that red dragon?"
"Gods, these are really a group of righteous and brave people, but it is a pity that they failed. I should create a long and touching poem based on them."
"Oh my god, all the Lionheart Knights we sent were wiped out! There were twenty of them!"
"We are not going to start a war"
"I don't want to fight those monsters."
People in the square were either surprised, regretful, or worried, and they all showed great concern about this matter.
