Traveling through the infinite wasteland

"Commander-in-Chief, should I continue to fight now?" Hu Mu asked in the fortress. ?Huo Ranwen??? ｗ?ｗ?ｗ?. ?

Cameron responded: "No need, I will collect the spoils now and then retreat, using their original defense line as the boundary! After all, we have still gained part of the territory, which is enough to claim credit from His Majesty!"

Millions of enemy reinforcements have arrived at the front line, and are under the personal command of Tudinan. Although Cameron is not afraid, it is not the time for a decisive battle. The empire is still preparing, so it is better to put some things aside for now.

Because of this, the fleets of both sides only had a tentative battle once, and then they retreated and hid themselves! Not to mention stepping up military rectification!

Of course, this is just the calm before the storm. Everyone knows that the day when the main army of Daomang Empire goes south to conquer, it will be the time when the entire southwest star sea will be unified! No matter how much trouble the Tiloan Empire makes, its time is running out!

Tianhua Universe Area, Imperial Palace Meeting Hall.

"Cameron and the others performed well! As long as they have a stable stronghold there, the subsequent military operations will be easier!" Ye Qingyuan looked at the battle report sent back from the front line and said with satisfaction:

"What is the situation in the Rockefeller empire? Do you have any clues now?"

Li Maci took a step forward and said: "Your Majesty, according to the information sent back by the people we are waiting for, something big has happened to the most powerful country in the Southwest Star Sea!"

"A big deal?" Ye Qingyuan asked with some confusion, "Could it be that His Majesty Anderson has... passed away?"

"Your Majesty is indeed aware of everything!" He smiled and nodded gently.

"Yes, old Anderson died a few days ago! Moreover, it is said that the death was abnormal, and the Crown Princess Annabell and the chamberlain Toles are suspected!"

"Suspicion? It should be generally confirmed!" There was a touch of ridicule on Ye Qingyuan's face. In the emperor's house, for the sake of power and profit, any dirty and dirty things may happen. It is estimated that when he comes to this country The current situation is largely the same thing!

Zhong Zixia said: "So, Prince Yaden suddenly withdrew his troops and returned to the country. Is this also related to this?"

Li Mace said: "Of course! He received an edict from the emperor a few days ago, which said that he was planning to make him the crown prince! Now it seems that it is just a conspiracy hatched by the chamberlain and Annabel. , the purpose is to sort out the prince who the old emperor valued most during his lifetime!"

"I just understand that Prince Arden is not an idiot. He must have discovered something, so he did not return alone, but set out on the road with a fleet of more than three million men!"

"So, the ensuing drama is largely a direct war between the two factions to compete for the throne, right?" Ye Qingyuan snorted lightly, "I don't know which side is likely to have the last laugh!"

Leng Zhuo analyzed:

"For now, the fierce fighting power of the Second Prince's faction is dominant. Not only do they control nearly 50% of the military power in the empire, but they also have extremely deep basic connections in the court! Yaden has no way to compete with him in this regard. Compared with them, if he didn't have a fleet of more than three million in his hands, without the old emperor's blessing, he wouldn't even be qualified to be the opponent of the second prince!"

Ye Qingyuan pondered for a moment and said softly: "Then, shall we think of some means to help His Highness Yaden! So that they can fight more lively, this is the most beneficial to us, no Um?"

"Your Majesty, this is very simple!" Yu Huang Xingyan said,

"Prince Arden almost saw something was wrong, but he didn't absolutely know that his father was no longer alive! If we make all this public, the neutral factions and loyalists in the Rockefeller Empire will The emperor’s power might have to think carefully about where to stand!”

"At this time, as long as Arden raises his arms, he will definitely pull in a lot of strength, and he will be qualified to compete with his brother! Not to mention defeating the other side and regaining the throne, at least it can be done to break the earth and stand on one's own feet! That's it! As a result, the Rockefeller empire was split into two and internal strife continued, and the entire Southwest Star Sea lost its last chance to integrate into one!"

"At that time, the opportunity I have been waiting for will come!" Ye Qingyuan said with a smile,

"The only opponent in the Southwest Star Sea that has some fierce fighting power is the Rockefeller Empire! As long as they fall into civil strife, the entire Southwest Star Sea will be within easy reach for us!"

"So, what should we do now? Some people say that we should take advantage of this opportunity to organize the army and go out immediately to avoid long nights and dreams. I don't know why you see this?"

Yun Tianqian hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Your Majesty, I believe that it is not appropriate for the empire to take action in advance at the moment, and it is better to act in accordance with the original plan!"

"Oh? Why do you say that?" Ye Qingyuan asked calmly.

"Your Majesty, if we move south immediately, anyone with a little bit of intelligence will be able to see that the fate of the divided Rockefeller Empire has already been doomed! If those two factions are not expected to be wiped out by us, they will only be able to do so temporarily. Abandon hatred and join hands with the outside world, you must at least repel the foreign enemies first, and then you can fight for your family property behind closed doors!" Yuntian Qian analyzed calmly.

"As long as we wait and see what happens, and even provide some help to the weaker party, they will definitely not unite if they are temporarily free from the threat of foreign enemies, and will definitely fight!"

Yu Xinzhe said with a smile: "When the fight lasts for a while, real fire is launched, and both sides suffer heavy losses, the division of the empire will probably continue and become the norm! At that time, we will send out troops in a logical manner, so that we can do it with the minimum The price must be paid in exchange for the ultimate victory!”

"Yes! That's what I guessed too!" Ye Qingyuan nodded gently, "However, things might not be that simple! Everything we imagined before was based on the absence of strong variables. It’s on! So the possibility of it becoming a reality is not high!”

"Does the variable your Majesty refers to the Yanwei race?" Lang Hao asked, "If they really decide to intervene forcefully, then the division of the Rockefeller Empire may end soon!"

The faces of all the ministers became a little solemn. They all knew about the covenant secretly agreed upon by the five races. Since the southwest star sea was temporarily assigned to the group of half-human and half-snake guys, they probably came to Yanwei. We will never allow them to continue to split and fight among themselves. We will definitely support the agents and unify as soon as possible!

Then, it is hard to say whether the two princes can fight for the throne or not!

"From the standpoint of the Yanwei people, which party do you think is more likely to support the throne?" Ye Qingyuan asked with a frown.

Ziyuan Lan immediately said: "Without a doubt, of course it is the second prince, Prince Weige!"

"The reason?" Ye Qingyuan asked with a smile.

"It's very simple. This prince's abilities are mediocre and his character is weak, so he is easier to control! On the contrary, once the young, heroic and arrogant Prince Arden comes to power, he might do everything possible to get rid of the shackles of a different race! This is obviously inconsistent with the situation. Their interests!" Zi Yuanlan said confidently.

Liu Xiangyun thought for a while and said slowly: "I feel that Prince Adun is more likely to ascend the throne! The reason is that the current second prince's fierce fighting power is superior. Even without the support of a different race, he is very likely to win. ! So the other side’s support doesn’t seem to be that important to him anymore…”

"Yadun is different, even if he can ascend to power. Without the support of connections and forces in the court, his life will definitely not be so easy! In order to secure his position, he can only try his best to get closer to the Yanwei race. In this way, Yanwei will Only the interests of the Uighur race can be maximized!"

"Well, both views are absolutely valid!" Ye Qingyuan thought for a moment and finally said:

"Then let's do this for now! Since those half-human, half-snake guys are going to take action soon, we don't have to get involved for the time being. We'll wait and see what happens. When we're ready, we'll decide based on the situation. Not sending troops!"

Rockefeller Empire, Imperial Capital.

"You mean, that bastard came back with the entire fleet?" In the secret room of the palace, Annabel stared at the steward in front of him with burning eyes.

"Yes, Your Majesty the Queen," Torres said tremblingly.

"There is nothing unusual about the edict sent to him by Wei Chen in the name of the late emperor. However, it is not clear what caused his wariness, so... that's all! And on the way back, there were even cosmic defense zones along the way. The fleet didn’t dare to stop him, and some even directly joined him!”

Annabel was so angry that she suddenly threw the teacup in her hand to the ground, and cursed through gritted teeth: "This damn bastard! What on earth does he know? He led troops back to the country without obeying the order to rebel. What?"

"As far as the current situation is concerned, it seems...that's what it is!" the head chamberlain said with a pale face, "Therefore, I am ready to fight!"

Wei Ge, who was sitting aside, said with some fear: "This guy Yaden has always been very good at fighting, and that Sha Yutian is not a soft persimmon either. It will be very difficult for us to deal with them!"

Annabel glared at her man with dissatisfaction and said abruptly: "No matter how great he is, he only has a fleet of more than three million in his hands. We have much stronger troops than he does, so we can fight him if we want." Fight, are you still afraid of him?"

"Then... you have to be famous, right?" Weige said cautiously.

With so many eyes from all over the empire staring at him, he sent troops to start a war without any reason. The target was still his brother. Without giving a convincing explanation, there was no way to stop Yunyun's mouth!

"It's very simple. Then issue an edict in the name of that old ghost, asking him to hand over his military power and return to the imperial capital alone to meet his father!" Annabel said coldly,

"If he dares not to listen, we will say that he is deliberately treason, and then we will mobilize the fleet and use all our strength to encircle and suppress him!"

Wei Ge sighed lightly and said nothing.

However, he was well aware of the abilities of his eleventh brother. Although the strength at hand was far greater than his, there was no way he could estimate how much advantage he would take advantage of, unless the other party was out of his mind!

What's more troublesome is that the old emperor has not shown up for several days, which has aroused suspicion in the court. If it drags on for two more days, it will be impossible to contain it!

How should this faction respond at that time?

Annabel's plan unexpectedly failed! After receiving the "edict", Arden not only ignored it, but instead accused her of colluding with traitors and imprisoning the emperor with evil intentions! And called on the entire empire to jointly attack the Second Prince and his faction!

Just before she could figure out how to deal with it, another disastrous news came. Several maids who were responsible for taking care of the old emperor's daily life suddenly broke away from the strict surveillance and disappeared quietly! .

Immediately afterwards, rumors began to spread in the imperial capital that the emperor had been killed and that the murderer was the crown prince and the chamberlain Tuo Lusi!

The frightened second prince tried his best to cover up the truth. However, as time passed, the rumors spread wider and wider! The whole court, who were already suspicious, could no longer hold back any longer. Several respected veterans jointly requested the second prince and the crown princess to come forward and explain the truth of the matter, and demanded an audience with His Majesty the Emperor immediately!

The old emperor had been dead for a long time, how could there be anyone alive for them to see? As the voices of doubt from the government and the opposition grew louder, Anabel saw that the situation was getting out of control and had no choice but to announce the emperor's death!

Of course, she would definitely not expose the inside story. She would just say that the emperor was busy with state affairs, so he died of a serious illness!

However, this attempt to conceal the situation did not calm the situation. On the contrary, people inside and outside the empire are becoming more and more incomprehensible, thinking that there must be some unknown secret!

It was previously said that the old emperor was recuperating behind closed doors, and then he was said to have died of illness, and it took so long to announce it. This kind of self-contradictory and full of loopholes could not quell the doubts of the officials! Many courtiers demanded a thorough investigation into the truth of the matter!

After being forced to have no choice but to discuss with her father, the Prime Minister of the Empire, Connor Howwhite, Annabell resorted to a plan to take down the chamberlain, Tullus, and then claimed that the eleventh prince, Arden, had colluded with him. They jointly plotted to kill the late emperor and forged edicts to usurp the artifact!

However, Yaden was not someone who was easy to fool around with. He immediately refuted tit for tat that the Crown Princess had colluded with the chamberlain to commit adultery and killed the late Emperor. He went to Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com and concealed the truth of the matter in an attempt to remove the legitimate heir to the empire. Kill them all together so that they can seize the throne!

The war of words between the two sides was extremely fierce. However, both inside and outside the empire believed that the Eleventh Prince still had more power. At least when Arden was on his way back home, there were not many fleets that dared to really make efforts to intercept him, and with his ability, Even if he encounters a few battles, he wins easily, which leads to more fleets falling to him!

In more than a week, unexpectedly, as many as nearly a hundred administrative heads from the universe regions announced their support for Adun!

Later, Annabelle, who was so angry that he did not stop doing anything, summoned the courtiers of his faction and announced that the second prince would immediately ascend the throne as the new emperor of the empire. The eleventh prince, Arden, had rebelled against the empire, and then bloodily purged a group of loyalists. The officials of the late Emperor used to shock people!

Then, she issued an order to mobilize heavy troops to encircle Adun, and the civil war in the empire officially broke out!

The news spread and the whole country was in an uproar! The main army of the empire that is attacking the Black Republic on the front line has also become divided! Many high-ranking generals who were loyal to the late emperor stopped their offensive, some waited and watched, and some publicly announced their support for the eleventh prince. It gave the Republic on the verge of collapse a precious breathing space! (To be continued...)
