Chapter 908 The Strongest Man on Earth
Winter is passing and spring is coming, and it’s the season of rebirth of all things.
The annual spring sowing celebration is approaching, and the streets of the imperial capital are decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and there is an atmosphere of joy and celebration everywhere.
However, in the palace in the central area, two pieces of bad news came one after another, weighing heavily on the heart of the current emperor of the empire, "Morte Sol Argestas", like a giant stone falling from the sky.
the first thing.
According to reports from secret agents on the border, a mysterious figure who calls himself "Night Dire" has founded a country in the bitter cold land of snowy fields outside the northern border of the empire. It has now integrated the three tribes of Headhunter Rabbit, Harpy, and Winged Man, as well as scattered small tribes of other races. There are also dependencies, and the total population exceeds 200,000.
The second thing.
Since the doctor "Kurokawa Moli" of the Knock Team was abducted in the imperial capital, Japanese envoys have entered the palace many times to negotiate, demanding that the empire rescue her as soon as possible. Otherwise, the Knock Team will personally go to the northern snowfield to negotiate with the new king.
Well, those two things really boil down to the same thing.
What gave Emperor "Morte" a headache was not the demi-human country that looked like a monkey - it had two hundred thousand people, not even a single territory of the empire, and it was in a bitter cold place like the snowy plains of the north where there was a lack of food and clothing. If the trade routes are blocked for half a year, this small country will automatically fall apart.
But the trouble was the kidnapped female doctor from the team.
"Morte" has been in power since he was in his twenties, and it has been nearly thirty years now. He has been in intrigues with the group of nobles in the Senate all day long, and he has an extremely clear view of political affairs and people's hearts.
How could he not know what the seemingly harmonious Japanese envoy was planning behind his back?
Once the other party is brought into contact with the demi-human puppet country in the north, the nature of the whole matter is likely to change from the internal affairs of the empire to the diplomacy of two peer countries. At that time, the demi-human puppet country will also become the other party at the negotiation table. A useful bargaining chip used to threaten the empire.
Therefore, the only solution for now is not to give the two the chance to come into contact, and for the empire to send troops to the northern snowfields to eradicate the hidden danger of the demihuman puppet country in one fell swoop.
As for whether the female doctor named "Jasmine Kurokawa" would die as a result, the emperor "Morte" did not consider it.
In fact, whether it is the empire or the Japanese country, everyone knows very well that this hostage incident is just a cold-blooded game of straight words, and the life and death of the parties involved is not actually important.
All that matters is the excuse.
But the empire is not the emperor's word. Especially matters such as attacking disloyal ministers must be discussed and approved by the Senate before sending troops.
At the Senate meeting the next day, the proposal to conquer the northern snowfields met with strong opposition from the nobles.
"Your Majesty, in the past, a demihuman puppet country of 200,000 people could be conquered by just sending an army of vassal states. However, in the battle of "Arnus Hill" last year, 300,000 coalition troops of vassal states were defeated. The entire army was wiped out, and the empire also lost nearly 100,000 elite troops on the other side of the "Gate". The border guards were already stretched thin, and they really couldn't spare any extra troops! "
"Your Majesty, please think twice! Even if the empire can barely squeeze out some more troops, the lack of generals is still a big problem! In the battle of "Arnus Hill", almost all the famous generals of the empire were killed, and those who survived were mostly disabled. , I can no longer lead troops to fight! "
I don’t know since when, the Senate seems to have developed a habit of confronting the emperor. No matter whether it is a big matter or a small matter, it seems that it cannot show its loyalty to the empire without reprimanding the emperor.
If he could just anger the emperor and receive some punishment, that would be even more extraordinary. It could become the real capital for these nobles to brag about for a lifetime.
Emperor "Morte" certainly knew that many of these old guys were opposed purely for the sake of opposition, but this time he had to admit that military strength and generals were indeed two unavoidable problems.
"Both problems are easily solved."
A sudden sound came from the entrance of the Senate. A young man with long orange hair, slender and handsome, opened the door and walked into the venue alone.
"Oh? It turns out to be His Royal Highness the Second Prince "Jia Bo". Do you have any good ideas? "A senatorial nobleman who had just raised objections was full of yin and yang, thinking that the other party was standing up for his father.
The second prince "Jiabo" bowed to the emperor "Morte" who was sitting at the top. After receiving permission, he walked up to the central podium of the circular venue and said loudly: "As we all know, the demi-humans are just a group of uncivilized barbaric races. Fighting depends entirely on personal bravery. Once encountering the regular army of the empire, it will often collapse..."
"Your Highness, the Second Prince, we all understand what you are saying, but the problem is that we don't have any extra regular troops available."
"Please listen to what I have to say, thank you." Compared to the irascible eldest prince "Soshar", the second prince "Jia Bo" has very good personal cultivation and did not show any dissatisfaction because his speech was interrupted midway. He smiled and said: "What I mean is, since the Naya puppet country is just a group of tribal barbarians, why do they have to send out the regular army of the empire to carry out a crusade? Is it just for the sake of conquering unsubordinates in the name of righteousness?"
Why?
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of everyone in the Senate suddenly lit up, and their limited thoughts immediately broadened.
"Your Highness, the Second Prince, you mean...those adventurers?"
"Yes, they are those adventurers who drink, fight and make trouble in the imperial capital all day long." The second prince "Jia Bo" took out a roll of parchment from his arms, shook out the tether and showed it to everyone in the Senate, "I have The "Agbachi Warriors Guild" has negotiated terms. As long as they pay 1 million gold coins, they are willing to go to the northern snowfields for the empire to conquer the Nayana puppet country, and bring back the head of the puppet king named "Night Dire" as a sacrifice. With Your Majesty. "
There were low exclamations among the seats in the Elders' House, and some people even asked directly: "Is the "Agbachi Warriors Guild" the adventurers' guild that is said to have more than 8,000 members and is known as the strongest in the imperial capital? "
The second prince "Jia Bo" dedicated the contract to his father "Morte", turned around and said with a smile: "Yes, but your information is obviously out of date - the adventurer competition held yesterday In the finals of the conference, guild member "Peter Greer" won the championship in one fell swoop and won the title of "The Strongest Man on the Surface". As a result, the "Agbachi Warriors Guild" to which he belonged became famous and expanded again. Now it has reached the requirements of the empire. The maximum limit is 10,000 people. "
"Oh? Is that the adventurer "Peter Greer" who is said to be as powerful as any brave man of all time? UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.net I have heard of his name. "
Emperor "Morte" also chimed in jokingly, with a faint smile on his lips.
"It is an honor for "Peter Greer" to be known by my father. "The second prince "Jia Bo" saluted the elders again, "I also ask you all to make a decision as soon as possible, because according to rumors, after winning the championship in the martial arts tournament, "Peter Greer" has already reported to his union. The eldest daughter "Luviria Sanctus" has successfully proposed and the wedding is expected to be held soon. "
After everyone in the Senate discussed among themselves for a moment, they raised their right hands in agreement one after another.
The emperor "Morte" nodded approvingly to the second prince "Jiabo", stood up from his seat with high spirits, waved his hand and said: "Then it's decided! Allocate one million gold coins from the treasury to hire "Yagbachi" "Fighters Guild" went to the northern snowfield to defeat the demi-human puppet country! In addition, it is my will to tell that "Peter Greer" to be patient and wait until he returns from the war before getting married. At that time, I will personally officiate the wedding for him! "
Asking for votes, I have a headache today, that's all I have... Regarding this "strongest man on the face of the earth" with a mental resistance of 0, I suggest good boys not to make up for it, but to read it with criticism.
