This was great news for him. Who wouldn't want to ascend the throne? At this moment, Prince Vidim was not a fool without political acumen. After so many years of wandering, he had already seen the world and people's changes. Therefore, he also understood that this Earl Daeglan would never help him with all his heart. If he really fought for the Kingdom of Virgia as he said, it would be a big joke.
"Count Degranna, you can swear allegiance to me now. When we overthrow the rule of King Yarofolk and establish a new Kingdom of Vigia, you will become my chief hero. At that time, you will become the greatest lord of the Kingdom of Vika, and I will grant you unlimited land and power."
When Prince Vidim said the word "power", he deliberately emphasized the word. Yes, power was what Count Daeglan desired most. Only if he was given enough power would he be loyal to him and lead his army to persuade other lords.
Reform doesn't feel that with Kadoc in hand, this peerless warrior will open up a broad road for him. He originally followed the anger of a certain person and arrived at Dehri, but he didn't expect to find such an opportunity, the opportunity he had always longed for, and he appeared in his hands so dramatically.
On the other hand, in King Yarogerk's fiefdom, in his court, how Maltas destroyed the Kingdom of Nord. The Kingdom of Vaegir and the Kingdom of Nord were originally mortal enemies.
At the beginning, they only temporarily united to attack the Kingdom of Swadia because of their common interests. Now the Kingdom of Swadia has been divided up by four countries. The Kingdom of Nord has gained the greatest benefit. It is only a matter of time before the two countries turn against each other. However, no one expected that things would happen so quickly.
This time, when discussing how to attack the Nord Kingdom, King Yarogerk was not in a hurry to invite lords from all over the country to discuss. He was only worried about some of his subordinates. Therefore, he did not have a substantive and detailed discussion with those lords. Whether or not to attack the Nord Kingdom should also be based on the interests of local nobles. Only under such circumstances can the forces from all over the country be mobilized. Otherwise, it would be far from enough to defeat the entire Nord Kingdom by relying on solely on his own strength.
"Martas, you are now the first warrior of the Kingdom of Vaegir. Let me ask you again, if you are wronged by the Nordic Royal Guards of the Nordic Kingdom, how many people can you fight against by yourself?"
Maltas knew that his chance had come. This was a good opportunity to reduce the prestige of King Yarogerk in the eyes of the lords of the Kingdom of Vigia.
"Your Majesty, I have to tell you sincerely that this is too easy for me. I can deal with 50 people by myself. Those Nord royal guards are not my opponents at all. With just your word, I can lead a group of people to flatten the entire Nordic Kingdom. In Sagoth, I will capture King Ragnar alive for you." These words made King Yarogelk laugh heartily. King Yarogelk was extremely satisfied with such an answer.
"Okay, just hearing your words will satisfy me. I am now preparing to fight on two fronts. This is a great plan that has never been seen before or since on the Calradia continent. I want to defeat the Nordic Kingdom and the Khergit Khanate, which are both more powerful than me. By then, my achievements will be praised by all eternity."
Maltas smiled inadvertently. This was a great irony. It was a great opportunity for Maltas. King Yarogerk didn't know that he was walking into a trap. If the plan of fighting on two fronts was really implemented, I am afraid that the lords of the entire Kingdom of Vigia would come out to oppose it. This is too dangerous. When attacking the Kingdom of Swadia, the Kingdom of Vigia suffered the greatest losses, and it also fought two battles with the Kingdom of Nord and the Khergit Khanate, which led to the gradual decline of the aristocratic power within the Kingdom of Vigia. Now is the time to reorganize the troops and be ready to go.
That's right, Maltas's wish was very simple, which was to plunge the Kingdom of Vaegir into a civil war. By then, it would become very easy for his Khergit Khanate to send troops to attack the Kingdom of Vaegir. While the two of them were fighting each other, he could reap the benefits.
The ministers of the Kingdom of Vigia inside the palace were all direct ministers of King Yarogelk. To be honest, these ministers were not very supportive of King Yarogelk. Many of them were spies planted here by nobles from all over the kingdom. When they heard that King Yarogelk was preparing to fight on two fronts, they were all trembling with fear. After all, this plan was too crazy.
Whether it is the Nordic Kingdom or the Khergit Khanate, the national strength of these two countries is much stronger than that of the Vaegir Kingdom. Therefore, if we talk about fighting on two fronts at this moment, it is equivalent to the Vaegir Kingdom facing two powerful opponents at the same time.
King Ragnar is no pushover, and Khan Saiga is no ordinary man either. The two of them shine like the sun at noon on the entire earth. Their two countries are so powerful, how could it be possible for them to annex both countries at the same time in a short period of time? Provoking enemies everywhere will only bring disaster to their own countries.
"I'm in a good mood today, so let's announce this matter to the world. Let the lords from all over the country prepare themselves and wait for my call to start attacking the Nord Kingdom and the Khergit Khanate at the same time."
King Yarogelk spoke to everyone present without restraint. If the news spread quickly, the nobles in the entire kingdom would probably stand up against King Yarogelk. They were not as crazy as King Yarogelk. They could analyze this war seriously. If the war was won, it would naturally bring benefits, but if they failed, they would suffer a catastrophe. robbed certain property in the war to make up for their losses, it would be possible. Of course, the premise of this is that they can win. But if they fail, the army will be wiped out, and all the young and strong men will be lost. Who will farm? If there is no farming, how can there be income?
How many lords would be willing to follow King Yarogerk in a war that is doomed to fail?
The main reason for all this was the instigation of Maltas. It was his powerful powerlessness that made King Yarogerk more and more arrogant, thinking that Maltas was as invincible as Kadoc.
The spies of the Nordic Kingdom and the Khergit Khanate got the news at the first time, and they quickly brought the news back to their country. Everything was done to guard against the Kingdom of Vaegir. As for King Ragnar, he was also shocked by King Yarogerk's crazy plan. Although there was a Maltas who was more powerful than Kadok, it did not mean that he had no ability to fight back.
"You ignorant fellow, I am trying to attack you, but you are trying to attack me without knowing your own limitations. Let's see who can completely destroy whom!"
This was what King Ragnar silently said after receiving the news.
Soon this news spread to all the lords of the Nordic Kingdom. Wals also received such news. Wals felt that this was a crazy plan, which was exactly the same as King Ragnar's opinion. Wals had not actually fought with Kadoc or Maltas, but no matter what, it was obviously impossible to annex the entire Nordic Kingdom and the Khergit Khanate with the help of the two of them.
"His ignorance and arrogance will destroy his entire country. It's time for us to annex the Kingdom of Vaegir. It seems that we need to strengthen our military in the near future."
Walsh has keenly sensed that a major war is about to break out. Walsh knows that if he doesn't start the war now, when will he start? If the war is fought sooner, it will be more beneficial to him. After all, while he is resting, others are also resting. Walsh's enemies are licking their wounds. He is like a beast.
The turbulent times are the most realistic portrayal of the Kingdom of Vigia now. After King Zayarrogerk announced his great plan, he quickly assembled a large number of troops. He wanted to retake the Castle of Ismorola. under their command, and no one will call him an ignorant guy anymore.
According to the request of His Majesty the King, lords from all over the country led their soldiers to help, but many lords were reluctant. After all, this was too crazy for them. Then, Yarogelk ordered Count Daigran of Dehrim to lead his army to attack the Khergit Khanate. He said that he would send an elite army to help, and Count Daigran would be responsible for the battle against the Khergit Khanate.
Therefore, King Yarogelk's grand plan is about to begin to unfold. Maltas laughed in the darkness. This is getting closer and closer to the success of the plan. In the minds of the lords of the Kingdom of Vigia, King Yarogelk's image as a tyrant is becoming clearer and clearer. By then, a civil war will be imminent.
This was in front of the city of Kulau. King Yarogelk assembled the lords of the kingdom of power. His purpose was naturally to recapture the castle of Ismorola.
If he continued to calculate like this, King Yarogelk estimated that the lords from all over the country would gather in Kulau City today. Although King Yarogelk also sent a part of the army to support Count Daigranna, King Yarogelk calculated the number of this army. This time he decided to defeat the entire Nordic Kingdom in one fell swoop. As for how many troops to send, King Yarogelk had to calculate silently in his mind. The main role of Maltas was to destroy the main force of the Nordic Kingdom, and hunting down the remnants would naturally be left to his men.
Maltas felt that his plan was about to succeed. Just yesterday, the spy he arranged in the city of Dehrim had noticed the meeting between Prince Vidim and Count Daigranna. It seemed that Count Daigranna had reached an agreement with Prince Vidim.
Then the rest of the things are naturally obvious. Count Daigran is planning how to raise the banner of rebellion. The support troops sent by King Yarogelk to Count Daigran might be instigated by Count Daigran. Then Count Daigran will definitely lead this army to challenge King Yarogelk. Therefore, no matter whether the Nord Kingdom wins the war with the Vigria Kingdom, the overall situation will not change. At most, the Khergit Khanate will come out to clean up the mess in the end.
It was at this time that a troop of lords from the Kingdom of Vigia appeared near the city of Dehrim with Nanna International. After seeing the arrival of these lords, Count Wolfda pretended to flatter them and led them into the hall of his castle. The soldiers in the entire castle hall were all Count Dagran's own people.
If these lords disagree with his opinions, Count Daeglan will order his soldiers to arrest all those lords who do not listen to his opinions. As long as he has the bargaining chips in his hand, he has the capital to fight against King Yarogelk.
Doruboye is the leader of this army. He is originally a lord of the older generation, so he has a very high prestige in the minds of the people, which also establishes his position among this group of lords. Therefore, Doruboye is the first target of Count Daigranna's winning over. If this target is successfully won over, the group of lords following him will also turn to him together. In this way, the situation will be greatly favorable to him. Doruboye and his entourage brought a total of about a thousand soldiers, and according to these lords, there are about 2,000 soldiers around King Yarogelk. This time, King Yarogelk has put all his national strength into fighting on two fronts. Many soldiers are new recruits who have never experienced the battlefield. Count Daigranna thinks that King Yarogelk's plan is crazy, not only that, but the lords around him also think so.
"Doluboye, how have you been recently? It's been a very turbulent time. Originally, the Nord Kingdom and the Khergit Khanate came to attack our Vaegir Kingdom, but things have changed. This time it's our turn to attack their country. This is really a huge irony for these two countries."
Count Degranna emphasized the shift from offense to defense in this attack, and also stressed that King Yarogelk's plan was obviously not feasible. He wanted to create the image of King Yarogelk as a tyrant in the minds of the lords, drive this guy out of power, and support Prince Vidim to take power.
"Yes! I don't know why His Majesty the King would be so crazy that he wants to attack two countries at the same time. Both of them are much stronger than us. Any country fighting alone is not as strong as the current Kingdom of Vijia. But His Majesty the King is so arrogant that he wants to destroy these two countries at the same time. I think this method is obviously inappropriate. But we are just the subordinates of King Yarogerk, and we still have to obey His Majesty the King's arrangements."
Count Dagran already knew that this attempt to win over Prince Vidim would have an unexpected effect. He arranged Prince Vidim in a dark corner of the castle hall. He would pull Prince Vidim out when necessary. The top priority now is to convince this lord, who is the most prestigious lord.
"How about this? I'll tell you straight away. I'm very worried about this country. Your Majesty, if you blindly launch an attack without examining your own strength, the entire Kingdom of Vigia will inevitably be plunged into war. If this happens, we will definitely suffer a disaster."
Unconsciously, the positions of Count Deiglana and Doluboye were actually converging. Doluboye originally looked down on Count Deiglana's background because he was originally a slave of a conquered country.
But now they rarely have the same opinion on political stance. Doluboye considers his own interests first, and then the interests of the country. Under such circumstances, if the Kingdom of Vigia loses the war, both the national interests and his own interests will suffer. Therefore, Doluboye naturally does not want King Yarogerk to launch this unprecedented and unparalleled horrific war. This is simply overestimating one's own strength. Even with Kadoc and the newly emerged Maltas, they cannot defeat these two powerful countries.
"So what good ideas do you have? His Majesty is not listening to us now."
Doluboye gradually leaned his head towards Count Daigran. The two of them were whispering to each other, and the other lords also glanced at them from time to time.
"It's simple. We force him to abdicate and replace him with someone more legitimate and wiser."
"What!?"
These words scared Doluboye so much!
"How dare you say that!"
Facing Doluboye's accusations, a scornful smile suddenly appeared on Count Daiglan's face.
"This king's position is not legitimate, and now his leadership is leading the entire Kingdom of Vigia into a terrifying abyss. Such a person is neither legitimate nor wise, so how can he be qualified to sit on the throne? Moreover, for you, Doluboye, the Kingdom of Vigia is falling into an irretrievable situation, which is bound to harm you. When that happens, people will suffer, and we lords will not have a good life either. This is also for the sake of the country."
Doruboye was silent!
He knew clearly that the chances of winning this war were not high at all. Even with Kadok, even if he had witnessed Kadok's power today, he absolutely did not believe that Kadok alone could withstand thousands of troops. The Kingdom of Swadia had Kadok at the beginning, but the result was still the same. The Kingdom of Swadia was destroyed.
"So where can we find a wiser and more legitimate person to become our king again?"
Count Degran already knew it, and he still had a chance to convince Doluboye.
"Such a person is far away but close at hand."
Count Daglan pointed his finger, and a figure suddenly walked out from an inconspicuous dark corner of the castle hall.
That person is Prince Vidim, the illegitimate son of the Kingdom of Vigia.
"Prince Vidim!?"
Doluboye shouted, and the lords also discovered the existence of Prince Vidim. King Yarogerk would not allow Prince Vidim to appear in the territory of the Kingdom of Vigia, so every lord must expel Prince Vidim, but Count Daiglana did not do so.
In that case, what he was going to do was self-evident.
Amid the panicked gazes of everyone present, Count Dagran stood up and walked to Prince Vidim.
Kneeling down to pay respect to him was an action that spoke for itself, indicating that Count Dagran had already devoted himself to Prince Vidim's so-called cause.
"I am the legitimate claimant of the Kingdom of Vaegir. King Yarogerk is leading the Kingdom of Vaegir into an irreparable situation. I am much greater than him. Believe me, I can lead this country into a new world. Lords present here, how many of you are willing to follow me?"
Doluboye reacted instantly and realized that Count Daigran was trying to win him over and get him involved in Prince Vidim's career.
He quickly calculated the pros and cons in his mind. King Yarogerk was pushing the Kingdom of Vijia into an irretrievable situation. This not only harmed the interests of the entire country, but also his own interests. It seemed that he should follow Prince Vidim in terms of both emotion and reason.
No! I should first listen to how he would rule a country. This might be an opportunity for me, an opportunity to control this country.
Then he looked at the lords he brought with him. They all turned their eyes to him. It turned out that these lords had regarded him as the main leader here and seemed to be waiting for his words.
"Prince Vidim, you want us to follow you, so please tell me why I should follow you."
This was too easy for Prince Vidim. He had been waiting for this moment for too long, waiting for it all the time. His words were very clear.
"King Yarogerk is arrogant and ignorant, and wants to fight on two fronts.
