Wizard Lords: Building an Empire starts from the panel
Chapter 25 Uproar (Part )
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, even Elipon, a social cow who had spoken on behalf of the Norton family in the Parliament of Nobles many times over the years, felt a little at a loss.
"Well~ This new trebuchet is indeed an invention of our Norton family. Well~ the full name is a counterweight trebuchet. It is extremely powerful and easy to operate. In order to curb the erosion of the border, my brother decided to donate this new trebuchet to Give it to the kingdom so that everyone can use it.”
After such an explanation, everyone looked at Elifan with even more suspicion. Digging out the family heritage to benefit the entire kingdom? This counterweighted trebuchet is probably not a fool.
As for Yelena, the well-known alchemist master in the kingdom, let’s take it down. The outcome of a battle of this scale cannot be controlled by a Sunrise-level wizard, even if the wizard is a master alchemist.
Is the Marquis of Ashan too powerful or is the orc side too brittle? How much water is involved in Marquis Ashan’s battle report? Is it really a crushing game at Snow Dragon Fortress?
The meeting hall suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
Suddenly, Count Mensa, a great nobleman in the Western Region, suddenly spoke.
"Your Majesty, since it is inconvenient for the Kingdom's central standing elite army to take action, our Mensa family is willing to send troops to support the Snow Dragon Fortress."
"This Lao Deng reacts so quickly!"
For a time, countless nobles who woke up couldn't help but cursed secretly in their hearts.
Outside the Western Territory is a desolate and barren Gobi. The nobles of the Western Territory have not explored westward for more than a hundred years. They have already become hungry wolves.
Whether the orcs are too weak or the Marquis of Ashan is too fierce, the current situation in the North is favorable.
Since you can't drag the northern nobles into the water, then join them! Wouldn't it be nice to go to the north to gain military merit and be knighted for military merit?
As a result, not only the nobles of the Western Region, but also the nobles of the Southern Region were ready to take action and requested support on the front line to protect the kingdom.
On the contrary, the nobles of the Eastern Region were unable to speak because of the Hessian Kingdom next door. After all, they had just brought up the Hessian threat theory, and the nobles still had to maintain their basic dignity.
At this time, although the northern nobles were very unhappy, they could not stop it. The first is that they lack the right to justice, and the second is that they themselves have no bottom.
They knew how powerful the main force of orcs going south this time was. The main force of the orcs suddenly felt cool, and they themselves found it incredible.
At this time, several of the great nobles of the North couldn't help but complain that the Marquis of Kia Mountain was here, and he didn't get informed about such a big matter in advance.
In fact, Marquis Ashan is not to blame for this matter. If you want to deceive the enemy, you must first deceive yourself. Marquis Ashan did add a lot of water to the battle report.
The total number of enemy troops increased from 120,000 to 180,000, and the number of enemies annihilated increased from 20,000 to 40,000. All this is just to turn the orc army camp into an image of a large military merit package.
As long as this piece of "fat meat" is described as soft and plump enough, Marquis Ashan does not believe that the nobles of the kingdom can sit on the Diaoyutai and let the northern noble group eat alone.
At this point, Marquis Ashan's expectations have been basically realized. When the nobles of the kingdom heard the water injection battle report, they pounced on them like hungry wolves smelling meat.
At this time, King Clovis I couldn't help but murmured. He felt that this matter was not that simple. But looking at the many nobles shouting "Kill the enemy and serve the country", he only felt a headache.
"If you don't do this, first send the Kingdom's two elite standing armies, the Blood Blade Knights and the Iron Wall Legion. The Western and Southern Territories can send a small number of private troops to support.
At the same time, each of the ten counties in the hinterland of the kingdom recruited a second-class legion to support the front line. What do you think? "
After hesitating for a moment, most of the nobles supported Clovis I's proposal.
There's nothing to say about this. Whether it's a standing elite corps or a second-class levy, the officers are mostly from the royal family and nobles, so it's like everyone is sharing the meat.
As for the private army, the nobles of the Eastern Territory were so aggressive before that they had no share this time.
Almost at the same time, the Orc Imperial Court also exploded.
The news of the defeat on the front line was too sudden. Winning or losing was only secondary. The main reason was that the political influence after the defeat was too great.
The old Beast King is approaching his end. In five years at most, Crown Prince Westheit will succeed him as the new Emperor of the Beastman Empire.
This time, the purpose of letting Crown Prince Westhayt lead the Southern Expedition was to consolidate Crown Prince Westhayt's authority and at the same time to take under his wing the large tribal leaders in the Orc Empire who did not serve as clan leaders.
Originally, things had been developing according to the original plan. The orc army marched all the way to the Snow Dragon Fortress. Two days ago, news came that Matthew Ashan was pinned to the ground and rubbed by the orc army. As a result, the battle situation suddenly reversed.
Not only did the prestige that Crown Prince Weisheite had accumulated over the years be lost in one fell swoop, but his plan to weaken the clan leaders of various clans also failed.
There are more than 22 large tribes of orcs, but there are only 22 races and clan leaders. The other fifty or so large tribal leaders had some ideas in mind.
Coupled with the secret support of the old Beast King, Crown Prince Westheit and the leaders of more than fifty large tribes hit it off immediately, and soon formed a tacit understanding.
So they tried to unite to divide the power of the clan chiefs and consolidate the imperial power and the power of the major tribal leaders.
But in this great defeat, the twenty-two chief tribes, except for the unlucky Elephant Man tribe leader, did not suffer much loss. On the contrary, the remaining fifty or so large tribes suffered heavy losses.
"Are these battle losses accurate? I feel that the proportion of masters' losses is too high?" the old Beast King asked with a gloomy face.
"Your Majesty, the data is basically confirmed. We have lost one Elephant Human Saint, 16 Sun-level experts, and more than 120 Silver-Moon level experts."
Hearing this, the old Beast King felt his heart dripping with blood. This was equivalent to one-tenth of the high-level combat power of the Beastman Empire. If 60% of the masters in the army had not gathered under the banner, Marquis Ashan's trebuchet would not have achieved such a dazzling performance.
As for the loss of more than 20,000 mid- and low-level orc warriors, the old Beast King didn't care. Orcs were born fast and had short lifespans, and there was an endless supply of mid- and low-level orc warriors.
"Send the order for Warren Isbell to continue the attack. I want him to figure out the new weapons of Snow Dragon Fortress.
In addition, each tribe has launched another round of conscription. According to the original distribution ratio, a hundred thousand troops will be gathered within a month. I want to lead the army to conquer it myself! "
The capital of Green County, Mantra City.
Earl of Norton's House.
Stico Norton, the contemporary Earl of Norton, sat motionless at his desk, looking incredible.
There are two pieces of letter paper placed in front of the table, one from his son Garieux and the other from the Marquis of Ashan.
"This is unbelievable." Earl Norton muttered.
The earl, who had experienced numerous storms and waves, never expected that the Marquis of Ashan would be able to make a comeback despite being at an absolute disadvantage, nor did he expect that his youngest son Gallie would reap such a huge sum from an unexpected transaction. Return.
The original promise was to take a fancy to the young Baron Monterey and prepare to invest. However, before the investment officially started, he got such a huge benefit from him.
