He also looked at him coldly. It was obvious that this guy did not want to confront him head-on, but instead he got to the point of the problem, which was to directly convince King Graves instead of wasting time arguing with an outsider like him.
The ministers on the side seemed to have been convinced by Wals. They were chattering about national affairs that would determine the future of the Rhodok Kingdom.
These two different directions will determine the survival of the country. Maybe it is not as serious as they imagined, but it is necessary for the country to suffer some losses. There is no doubt that they will join forces with whichever country is beneficial to their country.
King Gryfus remained silent after hearing Francine's words. What Wals and Francine said made sense, and he couldn't think of how to answer them for a while. Originally, he planned to join forces with the Sarand Sultanate to fight against the Nord Kingdom in the north and stop his expansion ambitions.
What is more likely is that they will join forces with the Khergit Khanate in the east. Then the three countries will deal with the Nordic Kingdom together. I believe that in a few years, the Nordic Kingdom will be destroyed by King Gryfus, and the territory of the Rhodok Kingdom will expand again.
Perhaps this time, the Rhodok Kingdom will become the overlord of Calradia.
Walls seemed to see through King Graves's thoughts. He did not point it out to King Graves directly, but expressed such a grand ideal in another way.
"If the Sultanate of Fland and the Kingdom of Rhodok join forces, their alliance will be the most powerful alliance on the continent. No country will fight against this alliance alone. They will definitely unite to fight against the Sultanate of Sarand and the Kingdom of Rhodok. The Kingdom of Rhodok will fight in the center of the Calradia continent.
Whether it is the Khergit Khanate, the Nordic Kingdom, or the Vaegir Kingdom in the north, these three countries can attack the Rhodok Kingdom. As for the Sarranid Sultanate located in the desert area in the south, only the Khergit Khanate can send troops into the Sarranid Sultanate.
The other two countries would never enter the desert area of the Sarand Sultanate. The Khergit Khanate would not allow soldiers from other kingdoms to enter their territory. This is also a kind of defense, which is human nature. So think about it.
Isn't it that the Rhodok Kingdom has become a shield for the Sarande Sultanate? This shield will absorb enough damage for the Sarande Sultanate. If the alliance wins, the already devastated Rhodok Kingdom will only become a stepping stone for the Sarande Sultanate to become the overlord of the continent. "
Huwols' words were very straightforward, causing the faces of all the ministers present to change. It was true that the current Rhodok Kingdom bordered the three countries on other continents. If a war really broke out, the Rhodok Kingdom would definitely suffer.
The Sarand Sultanate can just sit back and watch the situation unfold. This will be extremely disadvantageous to the Rhodok Kingdom.
"I think this is completely unnecessary. The Sarand Sultanate wants to unite not only you and the Rhodok Kingdom, but also the Khergit Khanate on the grassland. When the three countries unite, you, the Nord Kingdom, the most ambitious country on this continent, will be burned to ashes."
Seeing that Hott was so eloquent, Francine didn't care about anything and directly told him the whole plan. Although Hakim Sultan had an idea about the matter between you and the Khergit Khanate, Hakim Sultan had not yet decided how to implement it.
However, in order to resolve this negotiation, Francine had no choice but to resort to this last resort, passing on this inconclusive plan to temporarily stabilize King Gryphus's heart.
After hearing this, King Gryfus also felt that it made sense. This was exactly what she was thinking. By uniting the three countries, there would be a chance to defeat the Nord Kingdom.
Perhaps their wills will be unified, King Graves and Sultan Hakim will unite, and together with Saiga Khan of the Khergit Khanate, King Graves' ambitions will have a chance to be realized.
As time went by, Viruga was gradually moving away from Wals's sight. The group had originally arrived in this city with their heads held high, but now, almost everyone was dejected.
Under Francine's fierce attack, Walls's group has gradually been defeated. Francine is eloquent and changeable. In just a few words, she has completely changed King Graves's mind. Now everything is controlled by Francine.
It was not until this moment that Wals realized that apart from military strategic command and personal martial arts training, she often neglected the development of other skills. For example, her debating ability was something that almost no one had expected.
The alliance that could have been reached with just one sentence suddenly turned into a dark horse, and the whole scene was in chaos. The Sarand Sultanate began to interfere in the affairs of the continent. Such ambitions were really great, but King Griffus was immersed in his own fantasy.
He was quite ambitious about his own achievements, and at this moment, he was not aware of the ambitions of the Sarand Sultanate at all.
And the lords under him did not rush out to stop King Griffus at this moment. On the contrary, these lords seemed to agree with King Griffus's idea.
The diplomat that King Ragnar said he sent was just an inexperienced diplomat who played no real role in such an occasion.
He could only watch Wals and Francine arguing with each other, and he could hardly get a word in. If it wasn't for King Ragnar's personal appointment, Wals couldn't believe that he was actually a diplomat.
"Sir, I really can't imagine what kind of punishment I will receive when I return. Perhaps King Ragnar will take back the reward he originally gave us in anger."
Aileyen suddenly spoke. After hearing what Aileyen said, Walls also became worried about his future. Walls could say it with certainty.
This incident was like a bucket of cold water on Walls. Walls, who was full of excitement and joy on the way here, was like a dog in the water.
He was soaked all over, with his ears drooping, and one could see from his eyes that he was filled with infinite disappointment and loneliness.
"Now, how are you feeling?" Lorimer suddenly asked. He hadn't said a word since Walls and Francine started arguing.
If, well, Lorimer had spoken up at that time to help Walls fight against the eloquent Francine.
Then the result would be very different. Perhaps, with the help of Lorimer, King Ragnar's task would be easily accomplished. But just now, Lorimer didn't speak at all.
"You were here just now, right? Why didn't you come and help me? If you could have helped me, I wouldn't have ended up like this."
There was great confusion in Walls' tone. Lorimer knew that if he didn't come out to adjust in time, Walls' mood would become extremely bad, from confusion to dissatisfaction, until finally anger would fill his whole body.
"The answer is of course simple, and everyone knows the reason. If I pour a bucket of cold water on you now, then think about your final result. You just got a city as your territory, and you started to be complacent and forgot the mission you shouldered.
This is a sign that you are about to collapse. Many people gradually lose themselves at this moment, until they finally disappear in the darkness and leave this continent forever. Or leave this world forever. If you want to fulfill your wish and build the glory of your own family.
So you absolutely cannot relax at this moment. So I deliberately did not make any noise during this period. I did not say a word just to let you wake up. "
"However, this meeting is extremely important. If the Nord Kingdom fails to reach an agreement with the Rhodok Kingdom, and the two of them cannot form a solid alliance, then the final result will naturally change the situation on the entire battlefield.
To the east of the Nordic Kingdom are the Vaegirs who live on the snowfields. Although the Vaegir Kingdom has lost a large amount of manpower in the war with the Swadia Kingdom, they are not a country that can be annexed in a short time.
So, I am really worried that the Kingdom of Vaegir and the Kingdom of Rhodok will join hands to deal with the Kingdom of Nord. If that happens, the situation of the Kingdom of Nord will be very dangerous. "
Walsh began to analyze calmly, as if the complacent person before no longer existed. After being enlightened by Lorimer, Walsh had recovered from his joy and began to study the current situation with all his strength.
“Although the situation caused by the failure of the alliance this time is irreversible, the situation is ever-changing.
The Kingdom of Nord is preparing to continue expanding to the Kingdom of Vaegir in the east. It must guard against the Rhodok Kingdom's sneak attack from the rear and concentrate its forces to continue advancing eastward. Therefore, the Kingdom of Nord must find a stable ally. "Lorimer also began to guide Wals's thoughts.
“If we follow your method, I think that apart from the Khergit Khanate in the south, there is no other country that can join forces with the Nordic Kingdom to fight against the Vaegir Kingdom.
Moreover, when the Khergit Khanate joins forces with the Nordic Kingdom, they will definitely demand territory. They will demand that the territory they have captured belong to them. If things go wrong, they may even ask for a large sum of money. "Wols's analysis is very reasonable.
The conclusions drawn from calm observation and judgment are worth thinking about. Lorimer's judgment of Walls also grew year by year in his heart.
However, he knew that he absolutely could not praise Walls at this moment. This guy had just woken up from his joyful state. If he praised him too much at this moment, perhaps all his efforts would be in vain.
"In that case, tell your monarch, King Ragnar, about this idea. I think he will definitely not blame you too much."
"Okay, I seem to have begun to understand King Ragnar's thoughts. Perhaps he has never considered expanding to the south. In the east, the Kingdom of Vigia is his primary enemy."
After a day and a night of travel, what appeared before Wals again was a city that had just awakened from decline, Suno. Wals' king, King Ragnar, was now in this city. Wals returned to his fiefdom to report to King Ragnar.
"If what you said is true, Graves has joined forces with Sultan Hakim. This situation is extremely disadvantageous to us."
King Ragnar was unexpectedly calm, and Wals did not dare to ask more questions. At this time, he was sitting on the chair that originally belonged to him. There was no trace of emotion on King Ragnar's face. Wals could see that he looked haggard recently, and it seemed that he was worried about something recently.
Although the primary enemy, the Kingdom of Swadia, has been eliminated, it is not the time for the Kingdom of Nord to catch its breath. Whoever can preserve enough strength in the previous war will be the winner of the next war.
The Kingdom of Vaegir to the east of the Kingdom of Nord was like a wolf licking its wounds in the snow. This country suffered the greatest damage when attacking the Kingdom of Swadia.
It is precisely because of this that he is the weakest among the four countries in the center of the continent. If he does not take this opportunity to destroy it, after this evil wolf recovers enough vitality, who knows who will become his next target.
The Kingdom of Nord is like a crow that brings doom and death. Whoever is targeted by it will end up as a pile of corpses.
Lagraguang now has a lot of things to worry about. On the one hand, it is to fight against external enemies, and on the other hand, it is to divide these newly occupied lands to the lords who fought for him.
Naturally, he had to obtain apprentices who matched their military exploits. At the same time, the lords under his command were divided into factions. The Kingdom of Nord stood firm under the support of these three factions. If there was a problem with the balance among them, it would be like a house with one pillar removed, and it would become shaky.
If you don't want your country to become a country with internal and external troubles, then it is naturally necessary to weigh the pros and cons, although Walls is a non-factional member.
Sharing the land with her and keeping her firmly in his hands would certainly consolidate his rule, but everything is changeable, and King Ragnar would not allow a lord to grow stronger within his kingdom. When he commands the heroes, it will be his death.
As the first counselor under King Ragnar, Peters held his cane tightly, his cloudy eyes flickering like a flame in the darkness, guiding the young King Ragnar to find a way out in the political maze.
"Your Majesty, since it has already happened, why bother to change it? Insisting on this one thing will not help other things. We still have a lot of things to resolve. Let the south fight on its own. The Khergit Khanate has not yet stated its position.
This is our only chance. It would be best if we could win him over as our ally. If not, we can stir up conflict between the Khergit Khanate and the Rhodok Kingdom. When both of them are hurt, we will reap the benefits.”
Although Peters placed his focus on the Kingdom of Vigia, when the situation in the south changed, his aging but not stupid mind quickly came up with a way to stop the Rhodok Kingdom from moving north.
After hearing what Peters said, King Ragnar waved to his subordinate, Wals, and signaled Wals to leave. Wals also knew that King Ragnar needed to discuss the next course of action with his advisers.
Judging from King Ragnar's expression and tone, King Ragnar did not have any dissatisfaction with Walls. He was just disappointed with the failure of this alliance. It seemed that the sudden intervention of the southernmost Sarand Sultanate really caught King Ragnar off guard.
In fact, Wals should have thought of this a long time ago. When the five countries in the center of the continent were fighting, only the Sarand Sultanate in the southernmost part did not send out a single soldier.
This falcon waiting for prey is always paying attention to the dynamic changes of the continent. Now is the time for him to join forces with Lu Xiao to deal with the powerful. To enhance his prestige on the continent and command the people of these countries is the ambition of the Sarand Sultanate.
"It is the leaders' job to decide the direction of the entire country. The most urgent task now is to prepare for the next war, no matter who our enemy is, perhaps it is the Vikia snow leopard lurking in the snow.
Or maybe it's the Khergit wolf from the grassland, the giant bear from the Rhodok Mountains, or the desert falcon from the Sarand Sultanate.
Sufficient financial resources and a strong army are the foundation for a foothold on this continent. "Lorimer began to analyze, and Wals was so smart that he could immediately think of what Lorimer wanted to say.
Since Wals already has his own territory, after this war, the people of the original Swadia Kingdom's territory were left homeless and homeless. Now is the best time to appease the refugees, recruit civilians, and prepare for action.
"I can clearly see that there were originally many small Swadian armed forces heading towards Suno, but after they heard that a city had been captured by the enemy, they gradually became a chaotic army. Some retired to the countryside, some became mercenaries, and some even became bandits.
If I can gather them all together and form my private armed forces, it will be a powerful army. Back then, we relied on our numbers to defeat the Swadian knights in the forest and other non-plain terrains. Now, while they have not regrouped, we should gradually subdue them.
Although there are not many plains when our army advances into the snowy land in the east, this knight unit, which is not in vain, can still play its role. Moreover, the manpower of the Kingdom of Vaegir is still inferior to ours. With this powerful cavalry unit joining my camp, the final outcome can be imagined. "
Walls, you have expressed your thoughts. Those rebel troops roaming around are the ones that Walls wants to recruit.
"That's true, but isn't there one of the Swadian knights who is either far away or right before our eyes?"
Lorimer's words awakened the dreamer, and a figure suddenly flashed before Wales' eyes.
The person who flashed through Wals's mind was none other than Amyrida, who was captured during the battle of Paraven.
The long hair of this guy still flashed faintly in Wals' mind. If it weren't for the large number of Wals' men, Emilida would have been captured. Otherwise, it would be unknown whether she lived or died, and who would win or lose.
For Walls, such a person is simply a talent. If he has such a person to assist him, he will definitely become famous in the next war.
Moreover, with this famous Swadian knight joining his camp, this is definitely a very good opportunity for Wals who is preparing to recruit a large number of Swadian knights.
Amirida is a hero among the Swadian knights. He has already earned the title and is a powerful figure. If he surrenders, the Swadian knights who follow Amirida will also join Wals' camp and be used by Wals.
There is no doubt about the combat capability of the Swadian Knights on the plains. The army led by O'Donnell was able to defeat the coalition forces of Vega and the Nordic Kingdom, and the Swadian Knights made an indelible contribution.
"Then what we need to do now is to find out where Amirida is now. I need someone like her to assist me.
If I don't even know where he is now, how can I persuade him to surrender? I don't know where this guy is now. I have to persuade him to surrender as soon as possible. "
Wals said to the people around him. Aileyen also admired Amyrida's powerful force. Although other people had not seen Amyrida's true powerlessness, their ears were not deaf and they could still hear some of Amyrida's deeds.
