Chapter 624 [Cooperation with the Implicit Agreement]

In the palace's deliberative palace, the noble lords of the emperors are at the crossroads, and His Royal Highness the Regent has just announced the latest version of the war: the content is exciting and exciting.

However, after the reading, when Prince Chen looked at the people with a laughing look, all the elders, one will come as an ostrich, one just sitting in his seat, preferring to talk to each other quietly, as if they were all amazed at the contents of the war paper - but only if no one openly speaks.

Prince Chen smiled, he knew what these people were up to.

“The Duke of Tulip presided over the Eastern Front, winning by more than 40,000 enemies, taking back the fallen Eastern Fortress. The war not only restored the shame and embarrassment of the previous fall of the Fortress to the Empire, but also lifted the crisis in large parts of the interior of the Empire south of the Fortress. What is more, such a victory is also the greatest victory we have achieved in the face of these enemies since the war began. ”

When Prince Chen said these words, it was finally the tone of the evaluation of this great victory.

Those of you who are still pretending to have a low voice conversation below are finally relieved.

Well, the big boss has spoken. Since Prince Chen has said that this is a great victory, it means a lot... then this is qualitative!

Speaking of which, if it was that time, such a victory had to do with being the red Duke of Tulips, the news revealed that, naturally, everyone was busy praising each other. Because at that time, everyone knew that Prince Chen had great trust in Dewey, and that the Tulip family held up almost the pillars of the Empire with his own hands. At that time, naturally everyone was willing to do something extra.

But now… things are different.

The relationship between the Tulip family and the royal family has become increasingly obscure, speaking of discord and speaking of evil. Who dares talk nonsense in such a situation? God knows what attitude is towards the Tulip family in the heart of Prince Chen.

Let's just say it's a big win. Victory is victory, but no one dares to say a word of praise first - if Prince Dewey doesn't like it in his heart, and you openly call Dewey good, that would be a huge inconvenience.

Prince Chen opened his mouth first, so the people below hurried to get better.

For a while, the palace was full of cheering freckles.

But then these words of praise always end, and the scene suddenly reappears into a subtle silence...

Now that we have won the war, we have done a great job, so what makes sense is to tie up the reward.

But how can you seal a reward for Dewey?

Don't be ridiculous, the Duke of Tulip is recognized as the richest man in the Empire! Even the Lester family has become affiliated with the Tulip family, and the arms dealer, the Darlan Mountain Warcraft, has long been in the dark.

Dewey's current title includes: Admiral of the Empire, Commander of the Eastern Front of the War Zone. Take command of the 200,000 Imperial Regular Army.

Up again? How do I make him head of the war zone? And without that, where is General Rostock? Besides... with the ghost relationship between the Tulip family and the royal family today, let Dewey go to Commander now in the northern battlefield of the Empire, almost including the military power of more than 80% of the most elite troops in the Empire?

Who dares say such advice?! Die!

So, Ascension?

Dewey's title is already Duke! The Duke, in theory, is already the best title a prince can get. And then up is the prince level. But the problem is, there's no way to seal the prince unless it's a royal lineage.

That's trouble. No money, no promotion, no ascension!

So how do we seal the reward?

Some people can't help but think of a palpitating phrase in their hearts:

Master of merit, there is no reward!

None of you here are idiots, at least half your lives immersed in this big dye cylinder, and none of you are not old oil strips —— not even the youthful ones like Camisillo, who have been a little gradually evolved into little foxes over the last two years by old Chancellor Robustschel.

We all witnessed the whole process of Dewey's rise.

Speaking carefully, this young man, the Duke of Tulip, has brought credit to the Empire since his emergence, which is really...

Glorious!

The day of the coup d 'état was surprising, if only to say that it had achieved his personal prestige and established a close personal relationship with the Regent himself. But then he made a contribution to the Empire, and I'm afraid since the Augustine dynasty, none of his subjects have been able to compete!

First came the “Magic Sharing Spirit” and participated in the establishment of the Imperial Magic Academy, breaking the magic union's monopoly - the imperial official and magic union has been secretly stronger for many years. And the Magic Union is tough, even the royal family has a headache.

With the establishment of the Magic Academy and the establishment of the Magic Society, and the development of the spirit of magic sharing, the Magic Union no longer occupies a monopoly position in the magic field.

It allows the Empire to cultivate magical talent for itself - although the Empire's own magical talent has not played a significant role in this war, after all, because it is too short a time. Since the establishment of the School of Magic, it has only been a few years, even the earliest group of students have only learned magic for a few years, and have not been able to achieve more profound strength.

But it is believed that the role of the Magic Academy will become more prominent over time.

Also, after Dewey went to the northwest, the city of Gilliert defended the battle, successfully defeated the prairie people, with Dewey sitting in the northwest town, and the threat to the empire greatly reduced by the prairie people - even now in the upper echelons of the empire, some of whom knew implicitly that Dewey was interfering with the situation in the prairie and operating in secret. Only now can the grassland people's internal consumption be changed, unable to take care of the situation.

And... to destroy the Northwestern Legion's mutiny war, the Tulip Xiang family was the first success!

and… created a landmark Air Force with one hand!

And... in the three years of preparation, Dewey himself has donated at least 50 million gold coins to support the Empire's finances and military expenses!

As for the rest of the credit, it hasn't even been included!

Now, on the Eastern Front, there is such a huge military service...

Right now?

Reward or not, this is a problem.

How to reward, this is a difficult question!

The silence of the people once again plunged the palace into a bizarre atmosphere.

Finally, at this time, Camisillo coughed and spoke. Everyone immediately turned their eyes to the young Minister of Military Affairs, who, as everyone knows, stood behind him besides being deeply trusted by the Regent.

“Your Highness.” Camisillo's voice was very clear and blunt, from the channel: "I think the Duchess of Tulips is glad to have defeated the enemy on the eastern front, but we are not really worry-free yet. From what I have seen, we have presented a detailed report to the Ministry of Military Affairs, although we have taken over the fortress. But because of the massive destruction and demolition of the fortress by the previous enemy forces and the way the Duchess of Tulip attacked the fire during this war. As a result, we took back the fortress, but what we got was a piece of rubble. ”

Speaking of which, he quickly added: "Of course, I have absolutely no intention of denying Lord Tulip any credit! However, as Minister of Military Affairs, from a purely military standpoint, the immediate priority now is to refine our defence system on the Eastern Front! It's urgent, now we have two choices! ”

Prince Chen's eyes shine: “Go on. ”

“First.” Camisillo lit up his voice and his confident voice fluttered in the broad hall: "Because the fortress has become a ruin, devoid of any standing value or role, and unable to play an effective defensive role. Troops on the eastern front are afraid to retreat from Yakin City. We must mobilize more material and manpower as soon as possible to further strengthen and expand the city! Make it a new and solid military stronghold on the eastern front. The advantage of this option is that the city of Yajin is current and can be reinforced and expanded without too much investment in time, cost and manpower. The flaw is that, after all, once our troops return to Yakin, the city of Yakin will cede control of the territory north of the city. Moreover, the defensiveness of the city lacks a holistic effect and can only be considered a stronghold. Theoretically, enemies can bypass the city of Yakin to harass or sneak up on our inner territory - a possibility unlikely, but after all, the enemies we face are not human beings, but monstrous races, and we cannot measure them in a normal human mindset. ”

Everyone nodded in one word.

Especially thinking of those barbaric races, bypassing the front-line stronghold, dispatching troops to the inner belly of the empire for harassment or sneak attacks...

Even theoretically, as long as the other party dares to fight for losses and send a large number of highly mobile werewolf cavalry raids, they may even flow all the way around the Emperor!

This is definitely not alarmist. If the other party tries to lose thousands of wolf rides, flows inside the empire, doesn't want strategic goals, just burns and robs... God knows if those savage races will make it.

And while such a thing may not necessarily cause real harm to the Emperor or the Empire, once it happens, whether it is the turmoil of the people or the face and dignity of the Empire, the royal family will never allow such consequences!!

Imagine if, at some point in the future, a wolf cavalry suddenly flowed outside the city of Empire, burning and looting, even if it was finally surrounded by troops mobilized by Empire... but how much panic and popular disturbance would that cause if something like that happened?! If this did happen, it would be an absolute disgrace to the Empire!

“Second choice.” Camisillo coughed and laughed bitterly: “We have to rebuild this eastern fortress that we have reclaimed. Best in terms of strategic defense because of its geographical location! But the problem is that this fortress has almost become a ruin, the destruction of the enemy and the burning of the fire, and, according to the detailed warfare reports I have seen, the walls in the north in particular are particularly damaged and almost half have been dismantled by the other side! While the burning of the fire does not shake the foundations of the building, it is not an easy task to rebuild it. ”

After a pause, he smiled bitterly: "Not to mention, the enemy is now on the north bank of the river. And we've lost control of the river! The enemy has control of the river course, and once we rebuild the fortress - imaginably, even if the enemy is foolish enough - we won't be able to do it smoothly. They will harass and fight back! Lost the river course, our defenses lacked layers, the enemy could cross the river and directly attack the fortress we are rebuilding... working side by side, people keep messing around, rebuilding like this, I just think about it, it makes my scalp feel numb. ”

He whispered, saying that in the end, everyone in the hall was silent, and for a moment the crow was silent, one by one looking into his head and looking at Prince Chen.

Prince Chen, sitting on the throne, did not have any other expression on his face. He seemed very calm. After a moment of silence, he spoke softly: “This matter will be discussed in detail... this is what happened today. Camisillo stays, everyone else disperses. ”

With the exception of Camisillo, when the other men left, there were still people walking and listening.

Just the finance minister, the old man did not speak today, after walking out of the hall, he turned unconsciously to look at the hall behind him, saw the figure of Camisillo still in the hall, couldn't help but frowned slightly.

There was a colleague next to him who had a good relationship with him. He stopped and smiled. “What, did you lose something? ”

The finance minister smiled and shook his head: “I was just thinking that our minister of military affairs, working with the regent, was getting more and more tacit. ”

“What do you mean?” The colleague's eyes shine.

The finance minister shook his head, laughed deeply and left.

Humph... Camisillo, you interrupted this, deliberately throwing out the “two choices” problem, with this tricky thing, to attract everyone's attention, but cleverly diverted the topic!

The original topic was "Big win on the front line, how to seal the reward”, and when Camisillo finished, it became "Front line crisis, how to solve it”.

Of course, this little trick, some old foxes don't see it either, but it's just a clever silence. And most importantly, it seems the Regent is very cooperative.

——————————————————————————————

In Prince Chen's study, Camisillo presented a detailed warfare report from his arms. This newspaper is much more detailed than the one previously read by Prince Chen at the meeting. Including all the details of the war, the start of the war, the impasse, the final victory, etc., the level of detail is almost a text broadcast.

It is clear that, in addition to official official channels, there are also channels for the transmission of information from the Ministry's own internal clandestine system in the northern theatre of operations.

“What do you think of the recruits Dewey brought out?” Prince Chen returned to his seat: "The Griffon Knight? ”

Camisillo is silent.

Prince Chen himself laughed first, but this smile was not easy. His voice was filled with emotion: “This Dewey is always amazing! He pulled a rabbit out of his hat like a magician, and God knows what else was hidden in his hat. ”

“Your Highness.” Camisillo cautiously cautioned: “Dewey himself is a magician. ”

“Well, I know.” Prince Chen nodded and sighed for a moment. When he raised his head, his face curled: “The Lion Vulture Knight, for the time being, we have estimated that this type of army is expensive and scarce, and cannot be formed on a large scale. Though it was his thunder rider... this Dewey hidden cavalry, the outburst of fighting power really surprised me. ”

10,000 Thunder Rides, in the field, head-on, throwing an Orc out of his armor - something no human army could have done before!

“Your Highness, you are worried…” Camisillo said very carefully.

“No, I'm just curious.” The Regent suddenly laughed and his smile was clear: “Shouldn't I be curious? Dewey's men mastered too much power that I didn't know, and as Lord of the Empire, it would be strange if I showed no interest at all. ”

Looking at the Regent's frank smile, over his handsome face, the smile was as elegant as ever, his eyes were wise, and he exuded a kind of confidence in everything.

Camisillo sighed in his heart, but looked scared on his face and lowered his head quickly: “Your Highness, that's not what I meant. I mean... fully understand first! I still can't guess how such a strange cavalry was formed. Some military horse experts have also gone through many days of research and have not figured out how this strange giant horse was made...”

“The court magician couldn't figure it out either.” Prince Chen smiled: “But the only thing I can be sure of is that unlike the Griffon Knight... this Thunder Knight, as an army with powerful fighting power, it can be built in large numbers!! That's what appeals to me. ”

Camisillo bit his teeth: “Perhaps… we can find a way to find out in the Northwest…”

“No need.” Prince Chen immediately shook his head and rejected the suggestion, but he deliberately took a deep look at Camisillo: “Are you a little retarded too? I can't believe I'm suggesting this. Dewey's confidentiality measures have been well done, and the northwest has long since become his home base, deeply rooted. We haven't heard anything before, so now, if we look into it intentionally, do you think we can hide it? Besides, isn't it chilling to do something like that? ”

Camisillo nodded in a row: "Yes, Your Highness! I was wrong for a moment. ”

Prince Chen stared at the system for a while, his eyes flashed with a deep light, then the light wandered, and he replied with a relaxed and frank smile: “Actually, you don't have to worry too much about this matter. I'm just curious. After all, this incredible thunderride of combat power really amazes me... if such a powerful army empire could be formed in large numbers...”

He shook his head again and looked at Camisillo: “You don't have to have any doubts about Dewey. From what I know about Dewey... he now openly brings out such a bottom card, which is a good thing. Imagine, if the country were in trouble, he would hide such a powerful force and refuse to use it... then who is this force not for against the Orcs, but against? ”

The last sentence was somewhat heartfelt, Camisillo immediately got cold sweat after listening!!

That's right, the army was built to fight! If Dewey doesn't take it out against the Orc this time, but hides it... who does he want to use such a powerful army against?!

Against the Empire? The royal family?

Camisillo stopped himself from going down!

“He was willing to take it out, and he was sending us a message in disguise: he had no selfishness. ”

Looking at Prince Chen's words so easily and frankly, Camisillo closed his mouth and silenced himself.

Later, Prince Chen randomly told him a few more things, leaving Camisillo with that detailed war paper before telling him to leave.

After Camisillo left, after closing the study door, Prince Chen leaned against the chair, but sighed deeply. Confidence and indulgence just now turned into a shallow concern!

“Indicates that you have no selfishness... this is one of your intentions, Dewey...” Prince Chen whispered to himself: “But there is another intention, is to demonstrate to me... show your strength? Is that so? ”

Prince Chen pinched his forehead.

Dewey, does he know anything about my condition?

You know what? Or do you know?

(A little less today, more tomorrow)
