My summons are weird

Chapter 191. 190. Counterattack on the Western Front

Even Orcus, who has always been reluctant to participate in politics, understands a truth.

War is the continuation of politics.

The reason why His Majesty Bidilis chose to start the war this year is largely related to some contradictions within the empire.

When he succeeded to the throne five years ago, Bidelis' position was not stable. There were still several princes left by his father, and they had already formed parties on the way to fight for power and profit, which seemed to be too big to lose.

During the Zoregos period, Celer had the practice of enfeoffing nobles, but after being exiled to Mostana and re-establishing the country through Fossberen, in order to strengthen the overall cohesion, and the land area did not allow a large number of enfeoffments, so in many For a long time, the emperor made the decision on all affairs, and gradually formed a new system.

However things are always changing.

The previous emperor had reigned for nearly eighty years. As the longest-lived monarch in Mostana's history, Serer's ability was unquestionable and he handled all affairs impeccably.

After taking away the territories of the four clans a hundred years ago, the first emperor, who had just ascended the throne, chose to entrust the land of the four clans in order to compromise internally, in order to appease some stubborn nobles, and hope that everyone will continue to work together to promote Serer. national power, and recapture the homeland of Zoregos.

After coming to Bidilis to succeed to the throne, the national power was strong and the population surged. In addition, the treatment of the old and new titles formed a clear difference between the old and new factions, which led to constant struggle between the two factions.

Now the highest-ranking fighters in Celer are full of conflicts, and basically they don't like each other very much, and there are these entanglements behind them.

In general, Celer, which Bidelis took over, is a powerful empire, but the political situation is in a mess.

The struggle between old and new nobles.

The brothers formed cliques and formed cliques, and then they stared at each other.

The aristocrats were born in the late emperor, and all of them were shrewd and capable, so they were not easy to control.

Celer domestically condones the people's oppression and persecution of alien races, in itself to further enhance cohesion and win people's hearts.

I have to say that the effect is quite good, but this behavior also gave birth to a more deformed force under the catalysis of time.

Aliens cannot be regarded as life, but the idea of ​​goods is popular.

Driven by this idea, the maritime slave trade with Collet became more and more prosperous, and the massive benefits gained from it made this idea more and more popular.

Although Bidelis was kind and powerful, and with the help of several nobles left by the former emperor, he finally dismantled the forces of his brothers, but from the beginning to the end, everyone still didn't think he had any ability.

The domestic trade is prosperous, and the national power is booming. It is the emperors before him who governed well.

The "foreshadowing" left by his father came into effect to resolve the forces of the brothers. It belonged to his father and the old nobles who were powerful, and had little to do with him.

The contradiction between the old and the new nobles intensified, but Bidilis still had no good solution, which also made his prestige as the emperor virtually diminished.

As a high-level person in the Celer Empire and a marginalized person in the political game, Orcus was left alone when he applied for a summoning site and research support from Bidelis, and was asked a meaningful question. The problem.

"I've also read books about summoning. I heard that in other continents, there have been situations where summoned objects are unwilling to obey the summoner and ignore orders. If you encounter it, how will you solve it?"

After smelling the danger, Orkus forcefully talked about the theory of summoning, which made Bidelis feel a little confused, and finally had to interrupt him.

Bidelis' anxiety is fully reflected in this issue.

The devolution of power is a slow process, and just imagining it makes Bidelis worry.

If the old and new aristocrats don't buy their own account, then the rules of the game will return to the enfeoffment of the Zoregos period. The great aristocrats in the country rule their own city-states, and his power will not be as concentrated as it is now.

Coincidentally, Bidelis really has a card that can solve this intricate situation.

war.

And it is a training-style war in preparation for returning to Zoregos.

Not only can he temporarily transfer all kinds of domestic contradictions, but he can also rely on the victory of the war to consolidate his authority, so that everyone can understand that he is not an emperor who takes shelter from the blessings of his ancestors.

Therefore, not only did he have to go to war, but he also had to personally conduct a certain level of command in the war, and stop Yoyo's mouth.

At the same time, playing the card of returning to Zoregos will also allow Celer to temporarily eliminate the conflicts between them from top to bottom, and work hard for the same goal.

So far, the merchants are satisfied, because once the war starts, they can get more alien slaves and grab more benefits.

The nobles are also satisfied, and expansion means more land, and there is room for relaxation of the conflict between the old and the new nobles on whether to entrust the territory.

The people at the bottom are satisfied, and the arrival of the war has made it possible to have one more upward channel, and they can also have more slave assets, so why not do it?

Orcus saw clearly and was therefore anxious from the start.

Because the premise that everyone is satisfied is that this battle can always be won.

At first, the nobles and the emperor made a plan to occupy the fertile land in the middle of Mostana, but after several discussions, it became a decision whether to continue to advance based on the strength of the resistance, which led to Celer's three-front attack that scene.

Today, only 60,000 of the 180,000 soldiers who followed His Majesty's orders to enter the blue water returned, and the rest all died in battle.

The defeat of 120,000 people will always be blamed by someone. In the past, His Majesty Bidelis could find someone to bear the blame, but this time, for the sake of showing off his martial arts, he chose to find many nobles to witness his great achievements...

They went there with a strong heart, but when they returned, the team of tens of thousands of people was lifeless and lifeless. Even though Haimen Latour, the central fortress of Celer, was not far away, the soldiers did not feel relaxed because they would soon be able to rest.

After the battle with Lu Yu's summoner, most of Celer's soldiers were in a trance. For several nights, Orkus, who was walking with Bread, could hear the sleeping soldiers suddenly wake up, shouting incoherently Call.

After simple questioning, most of the soldiers returned to the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood in their dreams, and the screams of their companions being swallowed and chewed kept echoing in their ears.

Haimen Ratu Fortress opened the gate after confirming the information of the army.

There was no cheering, no welcome in line, the cold wind hit the soldiers, leaving behind trembling souls, and then roared and ran into the distance.

After entering the city, Orkus was playing with Bread, and planned to take Bread to the surrounding town of Celer in a short break, when Su Nafa appeared untimely.

It was because Su Nafa delayed Lu Yu's summoning that they could retreat so safely, so Orkus didn't give Su Nafa any face, but asked her directly what she wanted to do.

Since Su Nafa seemed to want to attack Bread last time, Orkus was very wary of her.

Su Nafa just glanced at the bread hiding behind Orkus, and then got down to business.

"My family courier said something happened on the Western Front."

Orcus' eyes gradually widened.

Just as Orkus and the others smashed into Blue Water City, the allied elves that had been advancing on the western front disappeared.

Similar to every previous transfer and disappearance, several legions on the western front did not take it seriously, and continued to sort out the occupied land step by step.

However, this time the Western Front Elf Alliance did not retreat, but gathered nearly 10,000 elites. Relying on the heavy snow weather, they bypassed the Celer Legion and secretly copied to Kuze, an important town on the Western Front.

Because of the distance from the front line, Kuze, who was in charge of hoarding and transporting food and grass, had no more than a thousand defenders, and fell instantly in the face of more than 10,000 elite Western Allied forces.

The more than 10,000 western coalition forces successively captured the three city-states of Celer, and burned them all to nothing in the same way that Celer treated the elf territories.

The only thing that didn't follow suit was the massacre of the city.

The border was breached, and the whole country of Celer was shocked. The troops returning from the western front and the reinforcements from home rushed to the area where Kurze was located, intending to annihilate the coalition forces.

However, the army returning from the western front was ambushed by the elves' coalition forces during the march, and lost troops.

After this battle, the hundreds of allied forces who had been separated from the elf allied forces on the battlefield actually formed a death squad, entered the border of Celer again, and robbed a city-state.

Because of their will to die, this group of remnants completely lowered their bottom line. They released the slaves in the city and began to massacre the city.

With both ends on fire, the reinforcements finally chose to annihilate the remnants first and rescue the people of Serer.

The coalition forces that succeeded in the surprise attack once again defeated the Celer legion that had returned to aid, and cooperated with the long-dormant elf army to advance, and instead encircled the three legions that were still on the western front.

Because the overall strength and the rushing reinforcements are sufficient, the western front has not been corrupted yet, but it no longer has the previous advantage, but has become extremely stalemate.

Orcus hurriedly asked: "What about the Eastern Front, what are the dragons doing?"

What he is most afraid of is that the Dragon Clan senses an opportunity and takes the opportunity to launch a large-scale battle on the Eastern Front. Although this will not collapse the situation in Serer, it will definitely increase the pressure on material dispatch.

"The Dragon Clan remained the same as before, and occasionally fought small-scale battles with the Eastern Front Allied Forces at some key positions, but there was no major battle."

"I heard that the Allied Forces on the Eastern Front are now dissatisfied with the Dragon Clan, and there are different voices."

Sunafar sighed and looked south.

"I didn't expect that the most troublesome thing for us is not the seemingly powerful dragon clan, but the elves who can only run away on the western front, and the stubborn mushroom people in the south."

After sighing, Su Nafa reminded: "The fox should try to hide as much as possible. His Majesty has been emotionally unstable recently. He has already executed several prisoners of different races to vent his anger secretly. I will meet with Your Majesty later and pay more attention."

After Sunafa left, Orkus touched the bread's head, looked south, and sighed.

It seems more and more difficult to get in touch with Lu Yu, sit down and have a good chat...
