Lord of the North

Chapter 74 The Situation

"My lord, what are we going to do next?" In the castle hall, Lancelot put down the information in his hand, looked at Jason and asked solemnly.

Only he, Jason, and Lang Nat were there in the entire hall. Since the kingdom has not made any news about this kind of thing, it is best not to spread it, so as not to cause panic among the common people.

Lopez's current situation is turbulent and cloudy, and King Lopez has not come forward to deter Xiaoxiao, and Phil Lopez and his uncle have obviously lost control over parts of the kingdom. After all, their recent actions have seriously damaged interests of some people.

As long as someone takes the lead, these ambitious aristocrats will definitely separate themselves and become kings, or they will seek refuge in the enemy country. At that time, the strongest country of the three northern countries will collapse in an instant.

"Release the scouts, strengthen the patrolling of the territory, and inform Gareth that the Iron Fang collar is on full alert. I want these soldiers to go into battle immediately if a war breaks out."

Jason tapped his fingers quickly on the armrest, seriously considering his next move.

"By the way, pay special attention to Viscount Tours." Obviously, Jason was deeply impressed by this little nobleman who couldn't help but had his hand cut off at the first time.

Now Jason's strength is enough to meet him head-on, and with the high-end combat power of Lancelot and Langnart, it is only a matter of time before he is destroyed.

"Because of that incident, we have already collected part of the information about Viscount Tours." Lancelot said, because Jason had no intention of retaliating against him, so they did not send this information up. .

"Let's talk about it first." Jason said in a deep voice, if the strength of the Viscount Tours is comparable to that of Iron Fang, there will be troubles in the future.

"First of all, Viscount Tours's family is a new nobleman. His grandfather was granted the title of hereditary viscount only after his meritorious service on the battlefield. The territory is a small town with a population of only about 2,000 people. It is not a very rich town. However, he has a special product called black hazel mushroom, which is a luxury food that some nobles especially like, and the money obtained from various taxes and ordinary trade is barely enough to spend on the territory."

Lancelot calmly stated some information about Viscount Tours, and these things were all remembered in his brain.

"Where's the military strength?"

"According to the spies' report, Viscount Tours's army is average. Currently, there are only about 300 soldiers, but we don't know if there has been an increase in troops recently." It seems that the soldiers annihilated in the last Yinggouya incident were enough to hurt him. My muscles are shaking.

"Continue to send spies to find out the information about the Viscount Tours' territory, as well as the status of the surrounding territories." Jason squinted his eyes, and his fingers had stopped tapping.

"Once the situation in the kingdom is in turmoil again, we will send troops to the territory of Viscount Tours." Jason had a legitimate reason to attack, because the Hodge knight was still in his dungeon.

"But my lord, will this affect the casino plan?" Lancelot asked again. After all, once the war starts, who will only care about entertainment?

"This war won't last long." Jason looked in the direction of the capital with gloomy eyes.

"The current group of people in power in the kingdom are just some internal fighting masters, and external fighting is not enough. I think they will end this farce by ceding land and seeking peace."

In addition to the 20,000 members of Lopez's First Heavy Armored Corps currently defending the capital, the entire Lopez Kingdom are all noble private soldiers. These private soldiers have rarely been on the battlefield. How could they follow Lopez all the year round? Rival to King Pez's prowling Lion Legion.

Defeat is inevitable, it just depends on how they will be beaten. Those fools in the east are still working for Phil, but they don't know that they have been victims from the beginning.

"Won't this greatly weaken the strength of the kingdom?" Lancelot felt that since these people could control the power of the kingdom,

It shouldn't be so brainless.

"Their main purpose now is to stabilize the domestic situation and fully grasp the power of the kingdom, not to fight foreign wars. What's more, the First Heavy Armored Legion will not be dispatched without the king's order. They are only loyal to the king."

A guy like Phil who hastily took charge of the kingdom's government affairs without the king's handwriting felt a bit like rushing a duck to the shelf. If he wasn't a prince, the generals of the heavy armored army might have taken him down.

"Lopez Seventeen County Province, the three in the east will definitely fall." Jason spread out a map and pointed to the east of Lopez Kingdom.

Because apart from the aristocratic group army in the east who sent troops to resist the Principality of Lions, the people in the kingdom and the south were silent, just watching quietly.

"They are victims, a group of sad victims." Jason sneered, this time they are still in it with the intention of excluding dissidents, right?

"Who do you think was responsible for this coup?" After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked again.

It was a bit far-fetched to say it was a coup, but the seriously injured king was placed under house arrest in a disguised form, and no ministers were allowed to visit him, which made Jason feel that this was a conspiracy at all.

A clumsy plot, did they take the nobles of the kingdom for fools?

"Isn't it a conspiracy by the kingdom's new aristocratic group?" Lancelot didn't understand why the family asked.

"Heh, let's see, don't you think it's a little too smooth for them to take power?" Jason knew the group of nobles too well, and they would obediently give up their rights, which obviously didn't suit their style.

Jason had just thought of this.

Lancelot was also silent when he heard the words. It is better not to speculate on some things.

Ronaldo didn't even say a word, just stood aside silently, not expressing his own opinion, he only needs to know the order, and this kind of thing still needs to be decided by the decision-maker himself.

"I don't know what kind of medicine my uncle sells in the gourd." Jason thought with his eyes, and his memory of this cheap uncle is really pitiful.

I just remember that he looks very elegant, but everyone in the kingdom respects him very much, because he is the "War Falcon" Asa Lake, a figure who makes the northern countries feel scared.

It stands to reason that such a powerful person should have his own ambitions. When Phil ordered him to be dismissed from his position in the capital, he actually accepted it. Now he lives in a semi-reclusive state in the capital.

Because Phil and the others were afraid that he would return to the territory. Once the troops rebelled, there was really nothing they could do about him except for the dispatch of the First Heavy Armored Legion.

And if he mobilizes his whole body, his rebellion will inevitably arouse reactions from all parties. This is not what the new nobles want to see, so they simply left him in the capital.

"Perhaps this one is really loyal to the royal family?" Lancelot said hesitantly, but he himself didn't quite believe it.

"Being loyal to the old king, I may still believe that being loyal to the royal family..." Jason's mouth twitched, revealing a mocking smile.

Marquis Asa Lake's younger sister died so strangely in the palace, and the royal family did not give a clear answer. No one knew how much loyalty to the royal family remained in his heart.
