The King

  Chapter 295 Living to Death

  A letter of invitation was sent out, and Hudson got busy again. To build a trading platform, you need to prepare far more things than you think.

   Not only need to prepare trading venues, but also need enough and powerful merchants, and need enough sellers.

  Businessmen are the easiest to deal with. As long as the interests are big enough and safety is guaranteed, they will rush over by themselves.

  The troublesome thing is the "sellers", who are all nobles, and many relationships require Hudson to personally come forward to communicate and coordinate.

  Fortunately, dealing with spoils is also a problem that the coalition forces just need.

   Caravans have accidents on the way one after another, and fewer and fewer merchants are willing to take risks, resulting in a large backlog of spoils in everyone's hands.

  In order to maintain the mobility of the army, many nobles had to give up some large trophies and only pick the most valuable ones to take away.

  As soon as Hudson let out the news, some nobles who had harvested too much booked warehouses in advance, and even some impatient people sent people to deliver things directly.

   Hudson had to order overnight work to build a temporary storage warehouse.

  …

  Judging the Knights' camp, Captain Blake is very worried now. After robbing dozens of orc tribes in a row, the Holy See army also accumulated a large amount of spoils.

   Originally, the chamber of commerce under the Holy See was also arranged to handle it. Unexpectedly, Hudson suddenly made this happen, which made his own chamber of commerce dare not come over.

   "What's the matter, why did you say it well, why didn't you come suddenly?"

  Blake asked angrily.

   It's not a system, even if he has a high position and authority, there's nothing he can do with those guys. After all, his life in the Holy See is not easy, and he cannot continue to make enemies.

  Annoyed, more like a powerless vent. If their own chamber of commerce does not come, cashing out the loot in their hands will become the biggest problem.

   If he didn't turn against Hudson, he could still send someone to the trading center to find a buyer. At this time, if you go to the door, who knows if you will be cheated!

   "Captain Blake, don't be so angry, let's discuss things slowly.

  The Sacred Chamber of Commerce refused to come, it was a last resort. The front line is too dangerous. In the past month, they have already had two caravans robbed.

  Especially now, after the Earl of Hudson built a trading platform, the risk of going directly to the front line is even greater! "

   Bishop Simon calmly explained.

  The caravan of the Sacred Chamber of Commerce was robbed, Blake was clearly aware of it, he sent people to the scene to investigate, and finally all the clues pointed to the orcs.

  Since the enemy did it, the investigation ended without a problem. At most, they would cut down a few more orcs on the battlefield to vent their anger on the chamber of commerce, and they had to bear the losses themselves.

   "What is there to worry about, don't they dare to rob our chamber of commerce?

  Bishop Simon, please tell the person in charge of the chamber of commerce that we will put magic marks on the products.

  Even if someone robs them, once the goods are out of the market, we can follow the clues to find the murderer and help them recover all their losses! "

   Blake said domineeringly.

  As the top power in the mainland, he has the confidence to make a promise. It's a pity that Blake is facing his own people, and this kind of promise has no effect at all.

   "Captain Blake, don't embarrass others. If someone dares to rob us, do you think they will use the normal way to sell the stolen goods?

  The influence of the Holy See in the Alpha Kingdom is extremely limited. Even if the stolen goods are found, it will be difficult to trace them all the way.

  Earl Hudson wants to build a trading platform, so let him do it, anyway, we also need such a place.

  The Holy Chamber of Commerce has already received an invitation to settle in. Only some specific details have not been negotiated, so there is no need to continue to toss. "

   Bishop Simon said with a smile.

   Both belong to the camp of the Holy See, and the internal forces are also chaotic. The fact that the Judgment Knights did not deal with Hudson does not mean that the Holy Chamber of Commerce also has a grudge against Hudson.

  Although it belongs to the Holy See, the Holy Chamber of Commerce is a commercial organization after all, and the first thing that comes to mind when considering issues is profit.

  Following the Judgment Knights, there are many dangers along the way, and they can only do business with this family.

   If they enter the trading platform, the sellers they face will be the coalition of the entire human race.

  Especially, the threshold of the platform is high enough to eliminate a large number of potential competitors. With the strength of the Holy Chamber of Commerce, it is enough to get a big piece of fat from it.

   As for Blake's idea, it is no longer considered in the category at all. It's nothing more than trying to lose face by judging the Knights, and it won't harm the interests of the Holy See, so why bother with money?

   "You... you guys, if you do this, you won't be afraid..."

   Blake swallowed the words before he could finish.

   After taking stock, he couldn't find a reason to change the decision of the Holy Chamber of Commerce.

   Although the barrel of a gun is strong, the money bag is not vegetarian. He made a fuss over this, and it was himself who suffered in the end.

  …

   "His Royal Highness, do you really want to lead the team there in person? You must know that this trip goes deep behind the enemy's rear, and the journey is full of dangers!"

  Clark tried to persuade.

  Prince Butzweig has the commonality of Beamon—paranoia, once he decides something, nine bulls can't pull it back. As a think tank, Clark only felt tired.

  At this moment, it can be said that going deep into the enemy's rear to destroy is basically a task of ten deaths and no lives. Any clues left behind will be strangled by the human race.

   No matter how empty the interior of the Alpha Kingdom is, it still has the strength to strangle a few orc squads. If it really doesn't work, at most tens of thousands of troops will be dispatched to go back to work.

  With the continuous arrival of reinforcements from the Human Race Alliance, even if the battle line is stretched, the advantage of the Human Race on the battlefield is still expanding.

  The fact that the five royal families would rather pay a high price to relocate their clansmen than confront the human coalition force head-on, is enough to explain a lot of problems.

  "Alex's authority is getting stronger and stronger, and those competitors have been tormented enough. Although I kept a low profile as soon as I came back, it is inevitable that I will not be hated by him.

  Once I let him clean up those few, it will be my turn next.

  Now Alex is the emperor of the Beamon clan, as long as he wants to find fault, there are plenty of ways to torment me.

   Simply take a task and go out to avoid the limelight. On the day of his return, it is estimated that the imperial court was almost cleaned up.

  A prince who has lost his influence in the army is the best Prince Beamon. I still have this political awareness! "

  Prince Butzweig said in a low tone.

   But whenever there is a third way, he will not choose to take risks. But there is no way, he had already asked himself to be responsible for the migration of the tribe, but unfortunately Alex rejected it.

  If he continues to stay in the army, he is a hidden danger that threatens the imperial power. No matter who is in the position of Emperor Bimeng, he must be cleared of this hidden danger.

  If it wasn't for the time of war, for the sake of the unity of the Beamon clan, Alex's hands and feet were bound, otherwise the butcher knife would have chopped at him long ago.

  Passively waiting to die is not his style. Butzweig would rather fall on the battlefield than die in the midst of internal fighting.

  Staying in the country and continuing to lead troops, Alex will only be more afraid of him, but it is better to take the initiative to ask Ying to go deep behind the enemy lines and make a risky gamble.

   As long as he can come back alive, he will be considered a smooth landing in this political turmoil.

  A prince who gave everything for the Beamon family, even if it was just for political propaganda, Alex had to confess him.

  If there is a change in the imperial court in the future, he still has a chance to fight for the position of Emperor Bimeng with the created character design.

   After all, Alex is old. More than twice his age, Butzweig could have slowly boiled him to death.

   "Your Highness, since you have made up your mind to go south, I will not advise you.

  If His Highness's trip was just to avoid disaster, there is still a 60 to 70% chance of getting out. If you want to make meritorious deeds, I'm afraid... ten deaths and no life! "

   Clark said bravely.

  As a counselor, he has to act with Prince Butzweig. If the boss hits the street, he, the younger brother, won't survive either.

  The current persuasion is not only to save Prince Butzweig, but also to save his own life.

   "Don't worry, I'm not a fool. The war has progressed so far, and the empire has lost. No matter how hard we toss behind the enemy, it can't change everything.

  As far as I know, the population loss of each of the five major royal families has exceeded 20%, and the proportion of young and old is even higher.

  After this strategic shift, the strength of each ethnic group will be further weakened. The rear is good for defense, but those barren lands will also restrict our development.

  If the human race changes its strategy and supports several powerful races, we will wait for the civil war every day! "

  Prince Butzweig couldn't help complaining.

   These are the top secrets of the Orc Empire. If he wasn't too depressed and needed someone to confide in, he wouldn't say it.

   "Your Highness, I'm afraid this kind of thing will really happen. The human race is best at sowing discord, especially our neighbor is Caesar III.

  Throughout his actions since he took the throne, sowing discord and playing with balance are all his usual tactics. "

  Clark analyzed in as calm a tone as possible.

  Maybe immersed in it, Prince Butzweig did not get angry, but nodded and said: "You are right, as long as Caesar III is still alive, we will face these situations.

  Even the specific executor, I can guess. Caesar III appointed the young Hudson as the commander of the army, clearly preparing for the destruction of the empire.

   Calculate the age and know that at Hudson's age, he can at least be entangled with the empire for decades.

  The wise and calculating king + the young and enterprising commander, in the years to come, we will never have peace again! "

  Since the defeat of Dapes, Prince Butzweig has passively turned into a blow. Perhaps he has boasted too many times, and now he believes it himself.

   Things that were originally irrelevant, but after he made up his mind, they were pulled together.

   "Your Highness, do you want to assassinate Caesar III?"

   Clark asked in shock.

   Killing a human king is a debt to the orc empire.

   But the question is how easy is the king to assassinate?

   Especially the identity of an orc, I guess he was wiped out before he even entered the capital.

   "Don't worry, we don't need to do it ourselves. The empire will send experts to carry it out. With my strength, I am not worthy of being an assassin.

   How to implement it, you don’t need to know for now. At that time, there will be someone to help create opportunities. This time, the empire is taking advantage of others! "

  Prince Butzweig couldn't help sighing.

  This war has changed too many people and things. Compared with the high spirits before the war, at this moment he is only left with sadness.

  Knowing that they are being used as a knife, the Orc Empire has to thank the other party for the opportunity with a smiling face.

   Regardless of whether the assassination is successful or not, it is impossible for the masters involved in the attack to come back alive. All possible traces of exposure will be erased.

   What the Orc Empire needs to pay is: After the assassination is completed, take the initiative to shoulder the responsibility of the assassination, and must not disclose any information about the collaborators.

  The contract documents have been signed, and the five emperors are all contract makers, and they can't go back on their word.

  In fact, even if you want to leak the secret, it is difficult. High officials of the empire, including Prince Butzweig, do not know who the real collaborators are.

  The few insiders are bound by the power of the contract. You can't pay for your own emperor in order to divert hatred, right?

   "Okay, Clark. You should also go down and prepare. No one can say whether we can come back alive this time.

  First arrange the family members, so as not to cause accidents for us, and make our wives and children feel uneasy.

  If you need anything, you can tell me. Although my prince has passed away, I still have a bit of face in the imperial court! "

  …
