Lord: I have a skill talent tree

Due to the conscription order from the North, the whole world now knows that the orcs are coming to fight.

Although it is known to the world, ignorant people do not know the meaning of 7 million orcs and still enjoy themselves.

However, anyone with a little knowledge knows the seriousness of the matter, so everyone is worried, and the nobles are the most obvious.

When they learned the news, they did not believe it at first, thinking that it might just be a means of threat from the North, so most of them ignored it.

But when they confirmed that the information was true, everyone was as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and began to think of ways to solve the problem.

Of course, even if they were anxious, with their temperament, it would be impossible for them to pay for their own money and work.

But if they did not send people and money, what would they do if the orcs really broke in?

In this tangled mood, they thought of a win-win solution, that is, let the country take responsibility.

In fact, this is also an old routine, and they have long been familiar with it.

So, both the Aslan Empire Parliament and the Helingard Republic Parliament quarreled.

There is only one purpose, that is, to let the country come forward.

Under the pressure of the internal and external coalition, the top leaders of the two countries agreed to send troops to reinforce and put it into action after receiving the conscription order.

Of course, the top leaders are not fools. They must not let themselves suffer all the losses in such a thankless task.

So they began to press down layer by layer. The country has contributed, and you must also contribute.

The conscription order was also sent to Maro City. To be precise, the entire NATO organization received the conscription order.

According to the conscription quota, Maro City was allocated 12,000 people, while the quota of the entire NATO organization was about 170,000 people, and the equipment and various logistical materials were self-provided.

The empire is only responsible for unified command and casualty compensation.

All this is actually an old tradition of the empire. The last large-scale conscription was more than ten years ago.

Ethan's father died in that large-scale conscription.

At this time, Ethan looked at the conscription order on the desk and was filled with emotion.

Logically speaking, there is nothing to hesitate about this matter. After all, keeping the North is protecting yourself.

If it were the previous Ethan, he would definitely arrange the relevant matters as soon as possible.

But after going to the North and seeing the real North, Ethan began to hesitate about the conscription.

Of course, the hesitation was not because he was treated coldly in the North, but because Ethan suddenly discovered that the prejudice in people's hearts was like a mountain that could not be moved.

People in the North have deep-rooted prejudices against people from other places.

In this case, you can imagine what the consequences will be if you send troops to support.

In the conscription more than ten years ago, Maro City sent a total of about 7,000 people, but more than 6,000 people died and more than 400 people were disabled, with a casualty rate infinitely close to 100%.

Is this casualty rate really the result that can occur on the defending victory side?

Although the situation in Maro City may be an exception, Ethan recently checked the data of other members of NATO.

It was found that all members had the same result without exception, and the casualty rate was infinitely close to 100%.

People can lie, but data cannot lie.

How can this be a war in the North? How can reinforcements be needed?

They are simply unbalanced and use the lives of people in other regions as cannon fodder!

Other regions may indeed owe the Northland, but whose life is not life, how can it be trampled like this?

Before I knew these things, Ethan sympathized with the Northland from the bottom of his heart. He was willing to do anything that could benefit the Northland, even if he suffered losses.

Since taking over the Lawson family affairs, he dared not tell Sophia many things, such as the grain sold to the Northland. The Lawson family basically did not make a penny. They were all settled at cost price, as long as they did not lose money.

The reason for this is to have peace of mind.

But after knowing these things, Ethan's view of the Northland changed completely.

At this moment, he completely understood that interests are interests, and feelings are feelings, and the two must not be confused.

If you are open-hearted to others, they will not understand you, but will only treat you as shit.

If you don't want to be blackmailed by others, you must let the other party know that we can do it without you.

Now that the South Alliance has been established, it is actively preparing fortifications. Perhaps its current strength cannot be compared with that of the North, but Ethan does not want the North to trample on lives like this.

Therefore, Ethan decided that before obtaining the approval of the North, he would not send any more soldiers to the North as cannon fodder, and at most only provide material assistance.

"Mr. Ethan, each member of the South Alliance has already drawn up a personnel plan, which is the quota for Maro City.

Take a look. If there is no problem, please let the parliament pass it as soon as possible, and then recruit enough troops, and our South Alliance Command will uniformly deploy them."

The speaker is the Secretary-General of the South Alliance, Kotrite.

Because there is a treaty on joint defense in the South Alliance member agreement, this treaty aims to give the South Alliance Command the command over joint defense.

Therefore, the North's conscription this time will be coordinated by the South Alliance Command.

He came to see Ethan, hoping that Ethan would quickly complete the conscription task for Maro City.

Ethan exhaled heavily and said, "Secretary General Cotrite, please inform the other members that we in Maro City will not send any troops this time.

At the same time, I hope other members will not send troops either."

Hearing this, Cotrite was stunned for a moment: "Sir Ethan, are you kidding?

Before, you were always working for the orcs, which led to the establishment of the South Alliance.

But now that we really have to face the orcs, you are the first to retreat?

Do you know that such behavior is likely to cause the South Alliance to collapse instantly? "

Seeing the other party asking three questions in a row, Ethan's face turned cold instantly.

"Are you questioning me? "

Seeing Ethan's bad face, Cotrite sobered up instantly.

The NATO headquarters sounded like an independent organization. Logically, it had the right to ask each member to cooperate with their work.

But in fact, the NATO headquarters was only the executive body of the military operations of each member.

All kinds of actions must also obey the instructions of local leaders, especially the instructions of this Lord Ethan.

Because he has absolute voice and absolute prestige in the banknote area, as long as it does not involve things that harm the interests of other members, basically no member will oppose him.

Therefore, he has actually become the actual controller of the NATO organization.

In other words, the mighty man in front of him is actually his immediate superior.

And when the immediate superior has made a decision, the first step should be to agree first, and then raise questions, rather than raising questions right away. This is the awareness that a worker should have.

Realizing that he had made a mistake, Cotrite immediately stood up and apologized.

"I'm sorry, Lord Ethan, I will do as you ordered immediately! "

Ethan saw that the other party was sensible and admitted his fault, so he didn't want to pursue the other party's rudeness.

He nodded and said: "Go! Also, I hope you can convince other members to not send troops together!

As for the reason..."

As he said, Ethan threw the war damage data of the large-scale conscription more than ten years ago in front of Cotrite.

"You will understand after looking at these. "
