This giant dragon is so powerful!

Albit Kingdom.

The royal city, the palace, the back garden.

Bradley VII ‘Ivan’, who has the title of the Iron-blooded New King, is taking a walk with the Queen.

"Your Majesty, you frown, is there something wrong?" The queen noticed Ivan's expression and asked softly, with a concerned tone.

Ivan turned his head and looked at his dignified and beautiful wife, and sighed,

"Prince Nicholas is dead."

"What?!" The queen looked shocked, covering her rosy mouth in disbelief.

Ivan watched his wife's superb performance calmly in his heart, with a look of grief and sorrow on his face, "I couldn't believe it when I received the news. But this is the truth."

"Duke Nicholas is only fifty-six years old this year, and he is in his prime. It is really a pity. My father often praises the Duke's prowess in my ears." The queen sighed.

"It is indeed a pity. But the most important thing now is to deal with the group of wasteland centaurs. Now, the position of leader of the Blood Flower Knights led by Duke Nicholas is vacant. I plan to let Duke Elkann take over. Queen, What do you think?" Ivan looked at his wife and asked.

Duke Elkann is the father of Queen Myra.

A trace of imperceptible joy flashed in Myra's eyes, and she said softly, "Your Majesty has the sole discretion to decide this matter. Myra dare not say anything."

"I would like to make the decision with full authority, but those old guys in the Noble Council may not agree with my idea." Ivan shook his head and sighed, with a look of helplessness on his face.

Upon hearing this, Queen Myra became anxious and said quickly, "Your Majesty, if you are really interested, why not call Duke Elkann to discuss it? Those nobles only want profits, and they can completely resolve it peacefully. .”

Ivan pretended to think for a moment, "That's what the queen said."

The matter was settled just like that.

Soon Queen Myra's father, Duke Elkann, came to the back garden to meet Ivan. The two discussed it for a full hour before coming to a conclusion.

In the end, Duke Elkann chose to give up three high-grade iron ore and one low-grade magic crystal ore in order to obtain the qualification to lead the Blood Flower Knights.

Of course, these three high-grade iron ore and low-grade magic crystal raw ore are the property of the late Duke Nicholas, not the property of Duke Elkann.

The so-called discussion is nothing more than discussing how to divide interests.

One day later, the division of interests ended in the noisy council of nobles, and each of the old foxes left with satisfaction. The final result was: Duke Elkann obtained the position of head of the Knights of the Blood Flower, the remaining nobles obtained 70% of the property of the late Duke Nicholas, and the new king Bradley VII'Ivan ', received full support from 10% of the property of the late Duke Nicholas and the Knights of the Blood Flower now led by Duke Elkann.

As for the family of the late Duke Nicholas?

They obtained the remaining 20% ​​of their family's property and the inheritance rights of the duchy to ensure the safety of the entire family.

After all, without Duke Nicholas, the strongest member of the family behind him was only a high-level professional and could not hold on to the huge resources that Duke Nicholas had when he was in power. If they don't know how to choose, the experienced nobles will personally 'teach' them.

Royal Palace Meeting Palace.

"Duke Elkann."

"My lord is here." Duke Elkann stood up from his seat and faced the new king Ivan with a respectful expression.

"Three days later, as the commander-in-chief of the army, you will lead the army south to the wilderness and drive the centaurs out of our territory." Ivan ordered with an indifferent expression.

"My lord, I obey!" Duke Elkann accepted the king's order.

The same scene also appeared in the Principality of Kas.

"Gather an army within two days, crush the half-horse people, and recover the territory that belongs to our country!" Grand Duke Bauhinia said in a cold tone.

From the very beginning, this wilderness war was a territorial division between the two countries over the wilderness plains.

In this process, whoever is stronger will occupy more territory!

Although the overall strength of the Principality of Kas is far less than that of the Kingdom of Albit, the power that the Principality of Kas can mobilize is not much less than that of the Kingdom of Albit.

This is caused by the historical problems between the two countries. The Kingdom of Albit has been inherited for more than a thousand years. Nowadays, there are hundreds or even thousands of powerful nobles with independent territories in the country. The country's power is extremely dispersed.

Among them, the power that completely obeys the new king Bradley VII only occupies a small part of the entire kingdom.

For example, this time the new king of the kingdom, Ivan, only called for an army of a hundred thousand, and except for a small part of the army of 100,000, it belonged to the new king Ivan, and the rest of the soldiers were all nobles of all sizes. You can put together three hundred and five hundred. It’s really worrying if we only look at cohesion, let alone strength.

But the Duke of Cass, which was founded less than a hundred years ago, is different. Grand Duke Bauhinia is the first generation of Grand Duke. Most of the power of the entire principality is gathered in his hands. The small number of noble forces that are not gathered in his hands are also indifferent. He obeyed the Grand Duke of Bauhinia without any hesitation. The Grand Duke of Bauhinia gave his order, and the whole country responded with unanimous voice. In this war going north to the wilderness, they directly dispatched 70,000 troops, which was only 30,000 less than the kingdom.

On the seventh day, the two armies of the Kingdom and the Principality entered the wilderness plains one after another and began to steadily encroach on the Centaur survival soil.

Xilulu~

"Stop!"

The centurion leader waved his hand, and a hundred black cavalry behind him ordered his mounts to stop.

The centurion commander looked at the centaur tribe with only a large number of animal skin tents left on the slope in front of him, and frowned.

This is the third time.

The centaur tribe garrison found by their cavalry exploration team belonging to the kingdom was empty every time.

However, in this regard, the centurion commander only complained in his heart that his meritorious service was gone, and then led the somewhat dejected cavalry back to the camp.

The base camp of the kingdom's army.

Duke Elkann, the nominal leader of this army, looked thoughtful after looking at the news brought by the cavalry spies.

"It seems that the Centaur has chosen to abandon the wasteland." A smile appeared on Elkann's lips.

This way, you can capture a large area of ​​fertile land without spending a single soldier. This is the most efficient way to maximize benefits.

"The army speeds up and advances to occupy more land as soon as possible!"

Now that the centaur has chosen to give up, the vast wilderness plain has become a piece of meat without an owner to guard it. How much you can eat depends on your ability!

The principality army marching in the other direction discovered this faster than the kingdom army, and had already quickly occupied the wasteland territory.

Soon, with the movements of the two armies, every mineral vein and rich land was surrounded by the army.

Although the wilderness plain has never been under the rule of the two countries, over the years, the locations of slightly more conspicuous mineral veins and rich areas in this wilderness plain have long been placed on their desks.

During this period, the armies of the two countries did not experience battles. In such a large area as the wilderness plain, there were a lot of monsters and monster tribes. The centaurs were only the apparent rulers of the wasteland, and the actual territory they controlled only accounted for a portion of the entire wasteland. A small part, the rest were divided by monsters and monster clans.

Under the iron hooves and long swords of the army, countless monsters and monster clans in the wasteland suddenly suffered.

Even powerful high-level monsters can only run away when faced with such a large number of human armies. Those who escape slower will have their fur, bones, and blood all sorted by humans, set prices, and prepared to be transported and sold.

Most of these wasteland monsters and monster clans fled in the dark forest in the west. The other three directions, the north and south directions, were blocked by the long border defense lines of the principality and the kingdom. If they fled to the human country, wouldn't they be seeking death?

As for the east side? There is a living environment suitable for monsters in the east, but to reach the east, you need to cross the Laputa River, which has an average width of more than fifty kilometers.

Facing this huge river, probably only the flying monsters have the ability to cross it. The ordinary land monsters can only look at the river and sigh.
