I Will Be The Crowned King

Vol 3 Chapter 87: Is it really over?

A war is not over yet, and the next war is about to start non-stop?

Carl Bain felt his temples throbbing, as if a blood vessel in his head began to twitch, causing him to tremble all over. The urge to spit.

Although he did understand Anson's reasons for doing so.

For Anson Bach, more precisely for the more than 5,000 people in the Storm Division, they did not stop to enjoy the qualifications for victory.

This is an army with the purpose of making money, with investors as the core, and the bottom-level homeless and a group of officers who are destined to have no future as the main body. Infighting.

I think the situation this time is actually quite united, and the more serious contradictions have actually been buried long before the fall of Eagle Point City - Ansen Bach took the initiative to give the lowest level of conscripts the right to distribute the spoils, and many officers have this very opinionated.

It's just because behind him there are two wealthy investors - Sophia Franz and Talia Rune - plus the record of conquering Eagle Point City, and the war that has always been smooth after entering the vast land. These voices were barely suppressed by the generous spoils of war.

But it's just a matter of pressing down. Once the war is setback, or An Sen makes a serious misjudgment, or there is no way to continue to increase everyone's income, conflicts will definitely break out.

From this point of view, Anson is not so much a commander, but more like a professional manager, or a subcontractor-he has major shareholders and investors on top, and small shareholders, management and staff below.

Of course, when he leads everyone to generate income together, they can be closely united, but once the income drops, conflicts at all levels will immediately erupt.

So as long as there is a road ahead, no matter how dangerous it is, Anson Bach will never stop.

Because the result of stopping is that countless contradictions have been accumulated in an instant, leaving everyone dead without a place to die.

Carl even wondered if Anson had designed this long ago. He deliberately used these 800,000 gold coins to provoke dissatisfaction with the Army and the Privy Council within the Storm Division, thereby reducing internal conflicts and preparing for the next step to attack the Grand Duchy of Mist.

Well, with this guy's loyalty to the kingdom and his sense of honor... he should be able to do such a thing.

If the cost of allegiance to the kingdom outweighs the benefits, even if he understands treason and self-reliance, Carl Bain probably doesn't think it's surprising... although then he may think this guy is crazy again.

But there is no way, who let himself be like a madman.

With this self-defeating mood, the resigned chief of staff found Leon Francois and told him about Anson's plan--of course, the part of removing 800,000 gold coins--and expressed the hope that he would write first Write a letter and go to Jinshi City in person just in case.

Little Leon, who was so excited about this, didn't realize any problems at all, but was very moved - for the great cause of the unification of the vast land, his cousin, as a Clovis, was so conscientious and dedicated all the time. For the sake of Han Tu and the Francois family, they didn't give themselves the slightest time to stop and rest.

What spirit is this? What spirit is this? What spirit is this? !

Leon, who was crying, patted his chest on the spot and promised that he would persuade his father Claude François to send troops immediately, cooperate with the Duke of Aiden in the west and the Storm Division in the south, to encircle the Grand Duchy of Mist on three sides, and take Han. The unification of soil is carried out to the end.

As soon as he finished speaking, he pushed the door and walked away, completely ignoring the pitying look Carl Bain cast towards his back.

………………

At the same time, in Jinshi City, the Great Justice Thun sat in front of a map of vast land, listening to his cronies, Henares, reporting the results of the recent army consolidation.

After the battle of Eagle Point City came to an end, Claude Francois, who was swaying from side to side, finally made up his mind and completely fell to the Kingdom of Clovis. He sent messengers to Clovis City. A series of orders were finalized with the August Armoury Factory of the Rune family.

The representative of the military factory, Mr. Erich, is different from the person in charge who has been in contact with the archduke in the past. He is neither arrogant nor arrogant like many Clovis people. He is submissive and behaves like a small noble Made a very good impression on Claude Francois.

Fast shipping, affordable prices, and excellent service - eight bayonets per case of four rifles, with holster, wall mount and shoulder strap, and two cases of propellant and buckshot; artillery included Kits and an ammunition cart full of propellants plus grenades, solid rounds and shotguns.

In order to help the Thun army get acquainted with these weapons as soon as possible, Erich also hired a group of security guards from the security company in Clovis at a high price to serve as weapons instructors; these people are all retired professional soldiers, and many are even in the elite troops. After serving, the level is not necessarily high, but the experience of operating various weapons is definitely rich enough.

It can be said that a considerable part of the agreement on the army between Anson and the Grand Duke of Thun was carried out by Erich.

Such thoughtful and perfect service naturally made Claude François very satisfied; he naturally understood the truth that wool comes from sheep, and the other party was willing to pay this because the profit was sufficient, but as long as the price was right, he didn't. Mind an extra set of money for "buying services".

Of course, if he really saw Erich's bills and various income and expenditure statements, he would probably have scolded the Clovis people for being black-hearted profiteers.

With a stable and sufficient source of weapons and ammunition, Claude Francois finally began to expand and train the army. Thun's army soared from less than 20,000 at the end of April to more than 60,000 - not counting garrison in each region.

And unlike the Aiden Legion, which had a low level of equipment and was just desperately expanding its numbers, the army of 60,000 Thun was really armed to the teeth.

Ordinary line soldiers are equipped with Leiden-style front-loading infantry, while grenadiers and elites are directly equipped with August rear-loading rifles-these weapons originally intended for Whitehall Street, Clovis City have not yet reached the hands of the patrolmen. Li first completed a large-scale installation in the Thun Legion.

In terms of artillery, Clovis's casting skills are somewhat inferior to the Empire's - mainly concentrated in experience accumulation and iron ore quality - but the supply is stable, especially the six- and twelve-pound field cannons, as Clovis The "fist product" of the Uyghur Military Factory can achieve the proportion of infantry artillery that makes one thousand people in the Thun Corps have one artillery gun.

The maintenance of such a large army was no small burden even for the wealthy Grand Duchy of Thun; but Claude-François did not care, and even he still felt that it was not enough.

According to his calculations, to unify and truly control the entire vast land, at least 100,000 troops are needed to maintain the rule of the Francois family, so that all opposing voices disappear.

After using his son Leon, who was placed beside Anson Bach, to learn about Clovis's basic strategy for the land, as an ambitious ruler, Claude Francois was keenly aware that he could hide behind and let him Anson and the storm division ravaged the entire vast land.

When they were almost at the end of the fight, and the Hantu kingdoms suffered heavy casualties, he would be able to dispatch troops calmly, clear up the last competitors, and take over the entire Hantu righteously.

In his opinion, there are no more than one and a half rulers of the whole land who have this qualification - Aiden counts as one, Mist counts as half, and the rest are all worthless stinky fish and rotten shrimp. They ripped to shreds, or simply surrendered to themselves.

Until the Lagal family of the Principality of Paya was killed, it can be said that the progress of the matter was basically in line with his expectations; facing the front of Clovis, the troops of these small countries could only be destroyed, except for surrender. There is no second way.

Then Carindia surrendered.

These scumbags actually surrendered? !

Surrender without firing a shot!

Obviously, Anson Bach, who saw the fat meat delivered to the door in person, would never be polite. The "capable" nephew did not even say hello to him, and immediately agreed to the gang of offal and marched into Carindia. port.

And Leon François... To tell the truth, Claude François now even regrets putting his only heir by Anson's side; every time he mentions Ansen Bach's expression and says It doesn't seem to be describing an ally or a distant relative, it's more like...

Then there is the Principality of Aiden in the Battle of the Green Valley... When he received that the Duke of Aiden, Viktor Emmanuel and the Elf of Iser had colluded, the Grand Duke Thun was very stable, because he was very familiar with this old enemy. So not as surprised as Anson.

What really surprised him was the storm division's combat effectiveness.

Because he did not personally participate in the battle of Eagle Point, he judged the true level of Clovis' army on the letterhead of Leon Francois - although this has become more and more unbelievable recently - to the Storm Division The assessment of combat power is only slightly stronger than Iser and Thun.

But it only took one night to defeat the Aiden Legion, which had an absolute advantage in troops. Even if there were gambling and adventure elements in it, the strength of the Storm Division might have exceeded his initial expectations.

Then now... Looking at the letter from Ansen Bach in his hand, Claude Francois suddenly sighed, causing Henares, who was still talking, to stop and look at him carefully.

"No, I'm not... sigh..." Grand Duke Thun originally wanted to explain something, but he quickly gave up such a meaningless move, and the conversation changed:

"Where is he... now?"

"Just left the border of Carindia, and should be still in the Principality of Paia." Henares answered truthfully:

"In three days at the fastest, Master Leon will be able to arrive at Jinshi City."

"Three days... That is to say, after three days, we must mobilize the legion and prepare for the invasion of the Grand Duchy of Mist." Claude Francois frowned slightly:

"Can you make it?"

"This...of course it's too late." Henares raised his head and looked at Grand Duke Thun with a complicated look:

"But Thun is actually not ready for a large-scale war at the moment. Are you really going to... directly agree to Ansen Bach's request?"

He had intended to say "happy" but realized that the word might have a derogatory connotation, so he immediately changed it.

"No one can be 100% prepared when facing a war, let alone we are fully prepared."

Claude Francois shook his head, and then sneered again: "And if you think this is really Ansen Bach's request, then you are really wrong."

"He wrote a letter, and then specially sent my son to 'persuade' me... This is not a request, this is a very clear statement-Thun people, I have done everything I promised, now it's up to you!"

Henares suddenly realized.

"There's nothing to say about this matter--of course, the insignificant places can be taken advantage of, but when it is time to implement the agreement, the agreement must be fulfilled, and the other party cannot put the pot of destroying the alliance on our heads." Claude Francois shook his head:

"The only question is, why are the Clovis or Anson Bach...what are they in a hurry?"

This is the only thing that Grand Duke Thun does not understand - there are so many small countries that the Storm Division can invade~www.wuxiaspot.com~ to sweep and loot, why are they targeting the Grand Duchy of Mist so quickly?

In other words, why was he in such a hurry to end this Vast War?

What's the secret here that you don't know?

"Could it be because of the empire?" Henares said tentatively:

"Clowe wants to end the war in Hantu as soon as possible because he doesn't want to be interfered by the empire - just like they use Hantu as a breakthrough to the empire, maybe the empire will also try to influence the situation in Hantu, and then from the south Surround the Kingdom of Clovis."

"There is a possibility." Duke Tuen nodded slightly, and there was a bit of a bad premonition hidden in his flickering eyes:

"I heard that Duke Aiden suffered heavy losses in the battle between Green Valley and the Storm Division, plus he bet everything to invade Carindia, but finally returned empty-handed... It is indeed possible that he will fall to the Empire in order to regain his strength. "

"If the Empire controls the western gate of the Principality of Aiden, it may indeed try to interfere; after all, even if it cannot win in a short period of time, the strength of the Empire is still much stronger than that of the Kingdom of Clovis."

Thinking like this, Anson Bach is eager to end this vast land war, and there is a reason for the idea of ​​​​setting the situation as soon as possible.

But Archduke Thun still has some kind of worry, a kind of worry that even he himself finds ridiculous.

Isir Elf Kingdom... Is this really the end?

Where did the missing Guard Corps escape to? The Thirteenth Council and the elf nobles really intend to watch the ancient royal court become the spoils of the Clovis?

Will the elf king in the royal court of Iser really kneel down and beg for mercy to the Kingdom of Clovis obediently?
