The knight king of the otherworldly moon

no.171 Betting on the National Fortune? (Ask for a ticket, ask for a custom order)

"I was wondering about that too.

All the current circumstances indicate that Britain is ready to attack France, and although the King of Britain himself has gone to the west, the ice demons have come to the south.

If it weren't for the war, he wouldn't have put such an important piece in this position."

Bismarck's doubts were not over yet, but Louis, who had no sense of existence, said another message at this time.

"That..., have you heard the news from Rome?"

"Prince Louis is talking about that... rumors from the Emperor's niece"

Bismarck looked at Louis.

He had heard the news too, but after hearing it, he just dismissed it as a joke.

"Yes, that is... the news.

I heard that His Majesty Nero openly declared that he had made a pact with the King of Britain that Britain would not attack Rome for half a year.

She also said that the King of Britain had also refused for her a joint attack with France."

Louis told what he had heard.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like lace news, rather than honest news, especially when the French side has not heard any diplomatic news at all.

His words elicited immediate reactions from others.

"How do we not know when we have united with Britain."

Duke Yuli looked at Bismarck with a bewildered expression, and he subconsciously thought that the chancellor was secretly making small moves again.

But this time, Bismarck himself expressed his confusion.

But... Pepin, who had been disgusted with Bismarck before, stood up and clarified the truth.

"My stupid brother, you believe even this kind of news, you are helpless.

How can we in France cooperate with Britain."

Louis' words were originally just casual words, but he heard a possibility.

But his words caused Bismarck to sigh.

The Dwarf King noticed this very clearly.

"My prime minister, I hear remorse in your voice."

"Yes, Your Majesty.

I just realized we missed a great opportunity."

"good chance"

"Prince Louis' news may not be just boring rumors, if you think about it, there is actually a possibility in his words.

If we try to unite Britain before we attack and invite them to attack together, the situation in the north and west may be much better now."

Bismarck suddenly found himself missing a huge opportunity.

If Lucifer also participates in the attack on Rome, Ross in the north will also join in time.

Then this time Rome will face the attack of the four countries at the same time.

In this case, France does not have to worry about the problems of the west.

In terms of results, this is indeed a good strategy.

But the problem is, they can't do it.

Not to mention Lucifer, even with the opposition in their country, they haven't done it yet.

"It is impossible for the King of Britain to agree to our invitation."

Pepin shook his head and rejected the proposal.

"It's not entirely impossible.

The indemnity we set before, this year's indemnity has not been delivered yet, if we can submit it in advance and add a certain share, we will be friendly.

Then let Princess Mary as an envoy to Britain, and the situation may not be so bad now."

Bismarck's own strategy.

He subconsciously put the previous lace news into an official position, and he thought about it again.

Now he is more and more... thinks that Richelieu's proposal of marriage is a good strategy, even if Marie is the concubine, not the queen.

Because in this way, Lucier's decision may be influenced by Mary, not by Nero, and target France.

Bismarck felt that this was a very good strategy, but noticed that his words had already caused an explosion in the hall.

"What, send Mary to that bastard! More money! Bismarck, you're a traitor, you know!"

Pepin immediately rebuked Bismarck.

He doesn't care about his sister, he has too many sisters, and he is not a sister control.

What he cares about is face, and of course the most important thing is money.

"Prime Minister, you traitor! Father, you must not send Sister Mary over, or as long as that person sees, she will be... Oh! God, I can't imagine how she will be Abuse."

Louis immediately objected.

His expression was very exaggerated.

Others have long been surprised by this.

"It is for France that I say such things.

Damn! Damn! Have you thought about the consequences of the British call now?"

As an elegant duke, Bismarck regarded himself as a civilized man, but now he is rarely violent.

He felt more and more that Richelieu's strategy should be used against all opposition at the time.

"Then let's attack first."

The eldest prince made the announcement confidently.

"The problem is, we can't attack early.

No, you understand! That bastard, I'm sure, he's looking forward to us now, so he won't be tied to the truce and can fight at any time."

Bismarck is sure.

Now Lucifer may have to take into account his reputation as the King of Knights. After all, tearing up the contract is a disgraceful thing.

But if France made the first move, then Lucifer would have no worries at all.

Seeing that the prime minister and his brother might have a dispute, Louis took the initiative to come out and make a round.

"Master Prime Minister, please don't be angry, I think, I think there is such a possibility."

"what is possible"

Bismarck asked immediately.

"He, the King of Knights of Britain, just wanted to scare us, he didn't even think about going to war at all."

Louie spoke of a possibility.

In fact, his unreasonable guess did hit the center of the target, but immediately drew a burst of sneer from the eldest prince.

"Frighten us Louis, do you think he is you, playing the game of children playing house all day."

"I do not have."

Louis' words inadvertently led to another line of thought in Bismarck.

"Wait..., it's not that there is no such possibility."

Bismarck murmured now.

"what"

"The King of Britain may indeed be frightening us. He is embarrassed to start a war, and he wants to frighten us in this way, forcing us to transfer our troops back to the front.

As a result, our offense will not go well."

Bismarck's words further puzzled the dwarf King Pepin.

"Is that... necessary?"

He opened his mouth.

"Yes! He doesn't want to see France become: powerful, so he wants to limit France's expansion in this way."

"You mean, he won't attack"

"The question now is not whether Britain will attack, but whether we dare to bet that Britain will not attack.

The conclusion is that we dare not bet.

Even if we know that the King of Britain will not attack, we still dare not bet on this possibility.

Because we can't afford to lose.

Therefore, it is necessary to increase troops to the west, and at the same time transfer enough high-level combat power.

It's the man's way of letting you know what he wants you to do, but you have to do what he wants."

Bismarck calmly stated his opinion that he had just determined.

no.172 I can't afford to gamble (please ask for tickets, ask for custom)

Think about it carefully, with what he knows about Lucifer.

He felt that there was indeed such a possibility, and it was very large.

As the party preparing to attack, even the commander-in-chief had already chosen to take his place, but France couldn't bet that Lucifer really didn't dare to do it.

Because if you lose this time, the result may be ten times worse than before.

The difference in the stakes precludes them from betting on this ambiguous possibility.

The dwarf Wang Piping thought for a long time, and finally spoke slowly.

"I know what he wants me to do, but I have to do it according to his ideas.

It's really disgusting tactics."

"Pretty disgusting.

But at the same time, it is also quite terrifying, my king.

If he is using a conspiracy like the King of Rome, we can fight back as long as he does something.

But now this situation is no longer a strategic contest, but more like a psychological game.

He knows that we won't bet on this ambiguous possibility, so he dares to let people come over."

Only now did Bismarck see through the crux of the whole situation.

Yes, just...don't dare to gamble.

Lucifer is not worried, because even if he loses the bet, the most likely outcome is that Lengomiard and St. George will start a war with France, and the two sides may end in a truce.

However, the French side did not dare to gamble, because once they lost, their losses would not be acceptable to France at all.

"What if I really don't defend?"

Pepin asked calmly.

"I can't predict the result, the pirates in the west will definitely not be able to stop the King of Britain.

If he solves the pirates within a month like before, and then secretly comes to the south, the result this time may be..."

Bismarck said a certain possibility with a wry smile.

This time, Pepin did not ask about the possibility again.

The land on the west side of the Rhine had been lost once before, but this time if the entire western part of France fell, they would really become a second-rate country in an instant.

That's one of the reasons why Bismarck says they dare not gamble.
