king.

On the holy mountain, the atmosphere at the headquarters of the Holy See was suffocating.As the person directly responsible for the deterioration of the situation in the mainland, overwhelming pressure from public opinion swept towards the Holy See.

Even if you want to throw the pot away.According to the division of tasks within the Terran Alliance, the Dwarf Kingdom happens to be within the responsibility of the Holy See, and they took the initiative to take on this task.

The active performance of the Holy See is not only to take the opportunity to weaken the Kingdom of Ruthenia, but also to expand the influence of the Holy See.

If a religious organization does not have a sense of existence, it is very scary.

In particular, there are rebels in the northern and southern continents, who are always trying to overthrow their sacred status, and the Holy See needs to come out to gain a sense of presence.

It's just that judging from the current situation, the situation is somewhat counterproductive.

Through this war, the influence of the Holy See has indeed been expanded, and the declining Kingdom of Ruthenia was infiltrated into a sieve by them.

It's a pity that something happened to the dwarf kingdom, and it didn't follow the established script, which ruined the good situation of the Holy See.

If it wasn't for trusting allies too much, failing to guard against the enemies in the rear, and being taken advantage of by the dwarf kingdom, the situation in the Central Continent would not have suddenly deteriorated to the point of collapse.

After suffering such a big loss, the countries in the mainland will naturally not let it go.If you can't help the Holy See in action, then fight back in public opinion.

Regardless of the final result, the Holy See has to give everyone an explanation for such a big omission.

As a result, the new round of the Human Race Alliance Council has directly become a criticism meeting against the Holy See.Representatives from various countries in the mainland caught them and yelled at them, which made the representatives of the Holy See almost depressed.

Representatives who are more polite criticize them for "indulging foreigners to cause harm to others"; representatives who are not polite directly charge them with the crime of "colluding with other races and eradicating dissidents".

Lord of Dawn, when it comes to the deteriorating situation in the Central Continent, they are at most suspected of conniving with other races, and they have definitely not reached the point of "colluding with other races and eliminating dissidents".

After all, no matter how you look at it, the countries in the middle mainland are not the mortal enemies of the Holy See.

Even if it is really colluding with other races and eradicating dissidents, it will be aimed at the two heretics of the Alpha Kingdom and the Frank Kingdom.

"Captain Gulei, I need a reasonable explanation for the dwarf kingdom's invasion of the Central Continent!"

Pius VII's words made everyone's hearts tremble.

Hastily called the coach back from the front line, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is the rhythm of pursuing responsibility.

If you directly reprimand, or even swear, it means that there is still room for redemption, and the most fearful thing is this kind of lack of expression.

"Your Majesty, this incident was completely an accident. The army of the Dwarf Kingdom was dragged to the front line by us, and no one thought that they would form dozens of second-line legions..."

Before Gu Lei's explanation was finished, Pius VII put a mocking smile on his face, and asked indifferently:
"I didn't think about it, why don't you go to the Human Race Alliance Congress and explain things clearly in front of representatives from various countries?
Dozens of second-line legions, with hundreds of thousands of troops, not dozens or hundreds of dwarves, you, the front-line commander, actually told me that I don't know!

Well, really good!

If these troops don’t go to the Central Continent, but directly appear on the battlefield of the Kingdom of Ruthenia, don’t you have to tell me—no one thought of it beforehand? "

It is difficult to keep a large number of troops mobilized completely secret.This kind of thing is not based on thinking, as long as more people are sent to investigate, they will definitely find something.

It is not that the Holy See does not have an air force. No matter how well-prepared the enemy is, it is impossible to block the entire border.

If you find an opportunity, you can fly over.If it really doesn't work, sneak in at night with the cover of darkness.

At best, the dwarf kingdom is well-defended on the front line, but there are not so many air force guards in the rear.With a little care, you can find something is wrong.

Even if the information lags behind, everyone can accept it.However, the reality is that the Holy See knows nothing about the military mobilization in the dwarf kingdom.

If the enemy really aimed at the Kingdom of Ruthenia, there would be hundreds of thousands of enemy troops all of a sudden, and the coalition led by the Holy See would definitely suffer a lot.

No matter how good the reason is, the charge of dereliction of duty, Gu Lei will definitely not be able to escape this time.

It's good to be able to restore the situation. If the Central Continent cannot be pulled back from the abyss, the tragedy will not only be Gu Lei himself, but the entire Holy See will be hit hard politically.

"Your Majesty, please give us a chance to make amends!

Since the situation in the Central Continent has deteriorated, the Judgment Knights have launched a fierce attack on the front line, striving to defeat the Dwarf Kingdom in the shortest possible time.

The deterioration of the situation is only temporary, and after we can defeat the main force of the dwarf kingdom, we will immediately send troops into the middle continent to support the countries and help..."

Before Gu Lei could finish speaking, the old enemy at the side, Blake, the head of the Judgment Knights, stood up and interrupted:
"Anyone can say big things, but the key still depends on the performance on the battlefield.

If the Dwarf Kingdom was so easily defeated, the war would not have been dragged on until now.

If you make a mistake, admit it!
If you carry it to the end, you will only make more mistakes.

Judging from the current situation, I am afraid that before we defeat the Dwarf Kingdom, the situation in the Central Continent will collapse first.

The most urgent task now is not to quickly defeat the dwarf kingdom, but to stabilize the countries in the middle continent first.

It is rare for an alliance of foreign races to really cooperate once. I don't think this situation will last long. Maybe the elves are already trying to negotiate.

After all, their strategic goals for participating in this war have basically been achieved.To continue, that is purely paying for the allies.

All the races in the Alien Alliance now rely heavily on the support of the elves. As long as the elves want peace talks, they cannot stop them.

In view of the current situation, if it weren't for the concern that the Terran Alliance would be held accountable afterwards, I am afraid that as long as the elves show a little bit of goodwill, the countries in the middle mainland will rush to compromise with them.

It is best to be able to stabilize the situation in the mainland. If nothing can be done, then find a way to ease the relationship with the countries in the mainland.Otherwise, the post-war situation will be very unfavorable to us! "

A series of analyzes caused cold sweat to break out on Gu Lei's forehead.There is no way, the old enemy's troubles have all hit his weakness, and these problems are precisely what he is most worried about.

Trapped to the brink of national subjugation and genocide, if the countries in the middle mainland escape this catastrophe by chance, they will definitely alienate the Holy See after the war.

In his mind, Gu Lei had faintly seen a group of new heretics rising gradually.It echoes the two heresies of the north and the south, and is full of heresies from south to north.

"you……"

The trouble he caused was too great, he gritted his teeth in hatred, and Gu Lei was forced to swallow the words when they came to his lips.

If you want to win sympathy points, you must show weakness now.

There are many factors that affect accountability, right and wrong are only secondary factors, and the pope must also consider political balance.

The Knights of Judgment caused troubles earlier, and Blake was able to land smoothly. The most important thing was that the Pope wanted to play balance.

The situation is much the same now.The several major knight orders of the Holy See confront each other and check and balance, so that the authority of the Pope can be guaranteed.

With the style of Pius VII, before a more suitable replacement is found, the probability of directly killing someone with a stick is very small.

What's more, the current Ruthenian battlefield is still dominated by the Knights of Judgment. After taking down Gulei, the commander of the army, and suddenly replacing him, the issue of command alone is not smooth for a while.

"enough!"

"Whoever caused the mess will be responsible for cleaning it up. Commander of the Gulei Army, I don't care what difficulties you have, the Kingdom of Ruthenia must achieve a breakthrough in the shortest possible time.

If you can't, then you don't have to come back.The Holy See does not raise waste, especially waste that only causes trouble!

Bishop Sauron, please arrange for people from the countries in the Central Mainland to contact you. If they are willing to persevere, we can give you some compensation.

No matter how the situation changes, the relationship between us and the countries of the Middle Mainland must now be repaired.

Let the Three Kingdoms persist as much as possible, it is really impossible, and don't force it.You can make promises to them when necessary. In short, everything is based on repairing the relationship. "

Pius VII said cruelly.

Now is not the time to settle accounts after autumn. Even if there is a replacement, it will take Gu Lei to clean up the mess.

Judging from the reactions of the crowd, many people were angry at Gu Lei, but none of them asked for a coaching change.

It's not that everyone doesn't want to replace him, but the main reason is that the position of the frontline commander is too hot now.Whoever goes up is going to clean up the mess, it should be done well, and we have to take responsibility together if we mess up.

Wanting to turn things around in a short period of time, severely damage the dwarf kingdom, and send troops into the Middle Continent is purely drawing big cakes.

It is true that the Holy See army is strong, and the dwarves are not soft persimmons.In particular, the occupied area of ​​the Dwarf Kingdom is still dominated by mountains and hills, which is not suitable for large armies to expand.

To be precise, it is not suitable for the deployment of a large army of human races, and the army of dwarves can still move freely.

The Arms Kingdom is also a mining madman. Most of the traffic in the Dwarf Kingdom is a super tunnel connected by mines. It is equipped with an exclusive magic mining vehicle with a load capacity of several tons.

Transporting ore in peacetime, and transporting troops and strategic materials in wartime, is a proper national weapon.

In order to guard against the human race, the Dwarf Kingdom deliberately designed the height of the mines in the border area to be particularly short.With a height of less than 1.3 meters, humans cannot walk normally in it.

In terms of national defense projects, the dwarf kingdom's investment is also not low.There are a lot of various fortresses and fortresses, and they are basically built beyond the specifications.

Not to mention weapons and equipment, the most powerful arms dealer in the mainland will not lack equipment for anything.

The reduced configuration version sold outside is a symbol of quality and is deeply loved by all ethnic groups in the mainland.The power of the original authentic product will only be greater.

In the war ahead of the Holy See, it was too late to make a breakthrough, and the lack of effort was only one reason, and more of it was because the dwarves were really not easy to bully.

……

In the Northern Continent, since the expeditionary force entered the recuperation period, Hudson once again lived a life of staring at the enemy.

A decisive battle is impossible.

No matter how lured by the orc army outside, he insisted on standing still.The generals who were eager to try were also scolded bloody by Hudson.

Fortunately, Hudson has already achieved fame and established prestige in the army, otherwise he would have been suspected of playing badly if he played like this.

The more unpretentious the tactics, the harder it is to crack.A simple move of braking with static force caused the orc army a headache.

The coach Daniel also returned with his troops, but after a stroll on the prairie, his status as a military god no longer existed.

He is afraid of comparison in everything, and meeting Hudson can only be regarded as his unlucky luck.The loss of soldiers and generals buried most of his prestige in the army.

The main reason is that he is too young, the time to become a coach is short, and his prestige has not yet had time to penetrate the hearts of the people.

If it is a veteran star, encountering such a small setback is nothing at all.After all, a flower does not have a hundred days to be successful, and a person does not have a thousand days to be happy, and no one can guarantee constant victory.

"Marshal Daniel, don't put too much psychological pressure on you. We all know the battle that happened on the prairie, and the main responsibility is not on you.

Under normal circumstances, no one would have expected that following the march would lead to deviations of tens of miles.

The officers involved in the incident were all killed, and there is no way to pursue accountability, so let the matter pass!

Adjust your mentality first, and you will need to worry about the next war. "

Beamon Emperor Alex comforted him.

Among the five emperors, only he can do this kind of work of soothing people's hearts.

It has nothing to do with personal ability, the main reason is that the other four emperors are full of arrogance and can't put down their airs.

Everything comes from strength.

In recent years, the Bimon royal family has declined too much, and has fallen behind among the five great royal families.

In the just-concluded prairie war, they lost another large tribe.Let the population that is not wealthy be hit hard again, and if some changes are not made, the family will die.

Therefore, Alex had to find a suitable role in the empire in order to keep Beamon's royal status.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Beamon, for your concern. My current state has stabilized and will not affect the follow-up battle."

Daniel responded politely.

There was still a sense of gratitude inadvertently flowing between the brows.Obviously, this cold-faced duke also has a tender side.

Even though he knew Alex was putting on a show, he was very grateful.

No matter how broken the emperor was, he was also the leading figure in the orc empire. Alex helped to say a fair word, which was more effective than Daniel defending himself a hundred times.

"Everyone is here, let's start discussing the issue of troop withdrawal!
Now that the war has progressed, the plan to quickly defeat the Alpha Kingdom can already be declared bankrupt.

The empire could not bear the loss of a forced siege, and the enemy refused to come out for a decisive battle.If the army continues to stay here, apart from wasting money, food and time, there will be no real gains.

I personally think that there is no need to continue the meaningless confrontation.It is expected that the national strength will be wasted here, so it is better to go back and recuperate.

In the past few years, the consumption of the empire has been very high, and all ethnic groups are in a state of exhaustion. It is time to take a good rest. "

The Silver Moon Wolf Emperor spoke first.

Wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat.The supply of strategic materials is insufficient, and these carnivorous races have become the biggest victims.

"The Emperor Wolf is right. It is indeed time to take a rest. The empire has just recovered the prairie, and production in various places needs to be resumed.

Relying on the old, weak, sick, and disabled in the rear alone is not enough. What we should do is to stop the war as soon as possible, disband the peasants and the army, and go back to cultivate wasteland and graze. "

The Lion King followed closely and echoed.

The former war faction has become the current peace faction. Politics is so mysterious.In the face of racial interests, flexible political positions are also necessary.

"Stopping the war is not something we can count on if we say it.

Does the Alpha Kingdom on the opposite side agree?
How should the Alien Alliance explain?

Originally, our relationship with the alliance is not good. If we continue to make peace with the enemy without authorization, our relationship with the various races in the alliance will be over! "

Xiong Renhuang objected immediately.

He has no objection to stopping the war, but not now.The situation in the Central Continent has finally benefited the alien alliance. If you withdraw from the war at this time, you are selling your teammates.

Similar operations have been done by the Orc Empire in history. They were isolated and helpless in the last war, which was the price they paid for "betrayal".

If strategic materials are scarce, then find a solution.If the food supply is insufficient, we can replace it with wild vegetables, leaves, bark and grass roots. Who was not a carnivore in ancient times?
In the eyes of the Xiong Renhuang, the persistence of these pure carnivorous races is hypocritical.As long as you are hungry for a few more days, it will naturally change.

Anyway, the bear people can become omnivores, so other races should have no problem.

"Xionghuang, you said it yourself, we don't have a good relationship with the major forces in the alliance, so why bother to catch up?

Even if we gritted our teeth and persisted until the end, they would not appreciate it, but would think it should be so.

The alien alliance wants to explain, why?

Except for the support of the elves, we have never received any assistance from other races, why should we look at their faces.If you want to exclude us, let them go.

Everyone's control area does not border, even if we are excluded in the alien alliance, it will not affect us. "

The Silver Moon Wolf Emperor immediately retorted.

It's not that the Orc Empire doesn't want to form a group with the alien alliance, but it's mainly because they are separated from the "nail house" of the Alpha Kingdom.
