Renault pondered at the Duke''s request.
He was very clear that what the Duke really wanted to ask was "whether the Byron family should evacuate immediately". Once the two fortresses were lost, even the most optimistic people were no longer optimistic about the future of Qianhu kingdom.
Without natural danger as a barrier, what can the Kingdom take to resist the black Orc army?
Face?
What''s more, the two most powerful generals of the Kingdom, Duke leiying and Prince elfalon, have both belched, especially the latter. The prince once directed the victory of the "flooded black orcs", which greatly inspired the morale of the kingdom.
Unfortunately, this tragic defeat has brought Qianhu kingdom back to its original form, and even its morale is lower than before. Nowadays, no one in the military circle of the Kingdom has enough ability and prestige, and the Kingdom''s army with lax generals is a whole.
Duke Byron''s territory is located in the north, not far from the wetland. If the black Orc army goes south, Copernicus must be one of the targets of the other side, so the Duke will naturally have the idea of "sayazzi running away".
The Duke is Renault''s dogleg. Before running, of course, he has to ask the "master" for advice.
However, what Renault was thinking was not the Duke''s life or death.
For him, the Duke is just a piece of grass. As long as he has enough interests, he betrays faster than anyone else. This kind of person can never become his own basic dish. If he dies, he will die. It''s not a pity. He doesn''t care.
Renault is considering the grand strategy at a higher level and the future of Qianhu kingdom.
First of all, do you want to save Qianhu kingdom?
Of course!
He can''t watch Qianhu Kingdom collapse so easily. He needs Qianhu kingdom to hold back the black bastard and buy time for the growth of Haichao collar.
On the other hand, if Qianhu kingdom is completely occupied by the black orcs in a short period of time, it means that millions of civilians will become the food for the black skin people, which he will never accept.
Renault also plans to slowly empty the family of "thousand Lake kingdom" and transfer as many people as possible to the tidal islands. How can he sit back and ignore it?
Therefore, the kingdom of Qianhu must be saved. Since the waste materials of Qianhu kingdom can''t be counted on, he can only roll up his sleeves and fight with the black skins.
So, a new problem has come. How can we save it?
It''s very particular.
In Earth China, there is an old saying that "only names and utensils can not be false to people". This truth is also interlinked in other worlds.
If Renault doesn''t say a word, pulling out the island protection team is a fierce effort. After paying a heavy price to get rid of Heipi, what good can he get?
No fart!
Because he''s just a crooked nut, he doesn''t have any reputation.
In everyone''s eyes, he is a big fool who "works" for nothing. The king and the nobles easily keep their territory without any effort. They are the biggest winners.
Of course, Renault can forcibly rob territory. This kind of behavior is equivalent to robbery. It will only be strongly resisted by the aristocrats from all over the world. Even the aristocrats who are far away in Xinghai will despise him.
It''s not worth the loss.
Therefore, Renault needs "name and weapon", that is, an "agent". All the benefits he gains during the war can be attributed to the agent, and then transferred to the tide collar.
Thinking of this, Renault''s eyes turned to the Duke who was waiting for his reply.
Let the Duke be the deputy?
The next moment, he vetoed the idea.
These old crafty guys are not good birds. If the Duke is allowed to act as an agent, the old dog will definitely make a lot of troubles in the future.
At this time, a pretty face suddenly appeared from Renault''s mind. He moved in his heart and said slowly:
"Duke, I heard that the granddaughter of the late Duke of thunder eagle, alietie Castro, did not die..."
The Duke was stunned. He didn''t understand why Renault suddenly mentioned it, but he still replied:
"it''s true that there is this rumor under the crown. Many people have seen Miss aleeti in the north, as well as vasilit, the former head of the Knights of Prince Castro."
"Prince, in the name of miss allietti, please send an invitation to all the nobles in the vicinity of Copernicus to discuss the war in Nassau wetland. As for the time, it should be three days later." Renault said without expression.
"But miss allietti..."
The Duke was completely stunned. Before he had finished speaking, he was rudely interrupted by Renault.
"Don''t be, do as I say!"
"By the way, tell them that the second group of island protection teams sent by Haichao leaders, with a total of 1000 people, will arrive on the mainland in two days. At that time, the whole island protection team will hold an exercise..."
The Duke realized in a flash.
Obviously, "exercise" is the real purpose of the crown.As for "miss allietti", it''s just an excuse to be crowned. It doesn''t matter whether this famous flower of northern border really appears or not, and no one cares too much.
Even in the name of "a dog" to summon the nearby nobles, everyone will come obediently, and honestly ask "hello" to the dog.
It''s all about strength.
At this critical moment when the mansion is about to collapse, only Renault has enough strength to stabilize the situation. Any nobleman who wants to keep his family business can only rely on the breath of Renault.
Since mianxia wants to play a game in the name of the flower of the northern border, let''s play with him. He said that this is miss aleeti''s invitation, so this is miss aleeti''s invitation.
If anyone dares to question it, go away.
Even if Miss allietti herself denied it, everyone would only pretend not to hear.
Ha ha, miss aleeti, I''m very sorry, the authenticity of your identity, you said not count, crown said only count!
"As you wish." The Duke bowed slightly. "Under the crown, I promise you that in one day miss aleeti''s invitation will be sent to you."
"Very good!" Renault nodded with satisfaction. He gave the Duke a look of "I''m sure you can do it". Then he turned to muse and said, "from now on, I need you to make full preparations for this exercise."
"Yes Mu Si Su Rong answered, "your will will be carried out!"
Then Renault issued a series of orders:
"Gollum, go north immediately to find out the current situation of alligator tooth fortress and white stone fortress, as well as the situation of the black Orc Army..."
"Yes
"Leiter, you lead a group of people to catch some heterologous black orcs, that is, black bastards with a strange sarcoma on their necks. Remember to catch them alive for me..."
"Yes
"Goody, you mobilize all the strength of Haichao chamber of Commerce, including our partners, to start purchasing food and materials. I need enough materials for 20000, no, 30000 people for half a year..."
"Yes
In a deserted mountain villa hundreds of kilometers away, the homeless Alice has no idea that someone is going to make a big event in her name.
She would not expect that in just a few months, she would become the "steel rose" of Mingzhen kingdom from the famous "flower of Beijing"!
At this time, allietti was wearing a linen dress that she had never worn before. She put two baked long eared chinchillas in a rough wooden plate. Then she patted the black ash on her hands and cried out:
"Uncle vasilite, ready to eat..."
