Chapter 137: Pericles' Vision
Elf Plateau, Persepolitus.
The Senate at this moment has been in chaos.
The dispute between the pro-war factions and the pro-peace factions reached its peak.
The elves argued about how to punish orcs and how to deal with this situation. When the so-called Three Cities Alliance, led by the city-state of Noxonos, burned the three orcs and all rural areas of the orcs, spread to the report on the table of the Senate.
The quarrel became more and more chaotic.
Some people believe that the Three Cities Alliance violates the principles under the head of state, while others believe that the Three Cities Alliance is rationally utilizing the principles of the head of state, which represents the flexibility of the head of state.
Some people think they are heroes, while others think they will let the war burn to the elves society.
Of course, the debate is more about how they should face the orcs' military operations, whether to start a war, or continue to maintain peace.
Bellikri looked at them arguing, but said nothing.
He looked at the statue of God the Father.
He knew that a bigger problem arose!
In the Elderly Council, some people questioned why orcs could destroy nine cities of elves in a row.
Severu commented, saying: "I've learned the whole process of things."
"In my opinion, there are so many coincidences when the orcs succeeded."
"For example, the city defense-level spell barrier of Crick Fortress was originally scheduled to be installed in a week to support the city defense-level spell barrier. At that time, the orc troops had to face the Crick Fortress, which was facing several times the difficulty of attacking the current one."
"But they happened to choose to launch an attack at this time, which was like... like the blessing of God the Father."
A veteran sneered, "The Father God will not only bless the orcs."
Severu continued: "In addition, the orcs have not actually fought too much in the lowlands of the Elf Kingdom."
"The only cities that the orcs conquered head-on were Crick, Cocilins, Corrics and Christie. The rest of the cities had the benefits of sudden attacks, and they walked around the city fortresses in the country road. In addition, [Cretionce] had the inner city who directly opened the city gates, while the Corrics Council collapsed and the residents were marching, so they had no combat power."
"That means that there are actually only three normal cities that the orcs conquer directly head-on."
"The Crick Fortress among them has not yet opened the city defense-level spell barrier and Dylan happened to leave the city and go to the Senate for a meeting."
Severu was about to continue talking, but Pericre had already hit the table and attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone stopped quarreling and waited for the head of state who had not spoken.
"First point, in this so-called Three Cities Alliance fire operation, it is impossible for the orcs to maintain peace with us, so you don't need to consider whether to start a war anymore. Now it's already started a war."
"The second point is my fault. I shouldn't have reduced the size of spies among the orcs in order to save money, so we don't know the situation in the orcs' lowlands."
"The third point is that since war begins, we must understand our goal of war. Our goal is to completely get rid of an orc society that is hostile to us. In the past, I wanted to slowly think that after they go out of their own, they might no longer hate us."
The elders nodded, and most of them had the same idea.
"It seems that this idea is wrong now."
"Now the population of orc society has expanded to the point where it has to attack elves. The chaos comes from the orc chief Dillon who made too many green totems, which has expanded their population to the point where their society cannot support it. This is the essence of the chaos in orc society."
The elders communicated in a low voice and nodded in agreement.
really.
Bellicari continued, "I don't know if you can convince Dillon to give up those green totems, but I think it's hard, the orcs have just gotten into disorder under his leadership, and the orcs are the creation of the Father God, and we cannot destroy them."
"We should persuade the orcs to give up Dillon's leadership."
Under the guidance of the head of the army, the elders began to discuss whether they should replace the orcs with another leader.
Some people recommend prophets, some people think prophets are also dangerous. They want to choose one of the orcs on the elves and recommend the king of orcs.
Bellicille recalled his promise to the prophet.
In fact, no one is as stable as the prophet to become the king of orcs.
A orc king with low prestige and incapable ability will be worse than Dillon. The crux of the orc society is that they are too backward, so someone must lead the orcs on the right path.
Bellikri continued: "The candidates can be discussed later."
He also needs to make arrangements from it so that the elders can understand the meaning of the orc prophet being the orc king.
He continued: "Now discuss the problems we exposed in this incident."
"The blessing of misfortune is that during this raid that was not very damaged, Dillon allowed us to see the flaws in our system."
"If we encounter enemies like insect swarms again in the future, we are likely to fall into a disadvantage because of the flaws of this system."
"Fortunately, the person who has now discovered the problems of our system is orcs."
"This is also a benefit."
Bellicille knocked on the table and said, "This action allows us to see that among the orcs and pigmen city-states, there is also the earth king caused by the Pigman Supervisor working class. This is not good, and we must be eradicated slowly."
"Those orcs are doing things in detail and they will send people to investigate them."
"The most important thing is!" Pericre's tone became stern. "I found the biggest problem with the two heads of state."
"1. The Senate has poor supervision of the city-state council. The city-state council has too high freedom and can even take the initiative to act against orcs. If our enemies are swarms, then what will happen?"
"If there is no unified command, it will threaten the families present. The safety of your own lives will make the kingdom fall apart."
"2, I didn't notice that some people can be both veterans and speakers of parliament. He is really a master of management, with multiple positions on one shoulder and unique. The superposition of official positions has given him too much power. I would like to emphasize on the other hand that our kingdom does not need a king."
Berlekri said: "So now, we have to change the orcs to another leader, and then! We will deal with our own problems at the same time. Official positions cannot be redundant. The Senate must send officials responsible for supervision to the city-state council. These officials are the supervisory forces that patrol various city-states."
"Represent the will of the Senate, and let them supervise the city council. At the same time, the position of the senator and the city council members cannot be held at the same time, and they can only choose one of them."
"Please forgive me for being so stern. Do I rarely speak so sternly? Yes, who would want to yell loudly before the statue of God the Father? But please do not take my tolerance as a reason for your mischief."
Berlekri swept over the elders present. "Negorous elders present, think carefully. Split is a sign of the decline of the kingdom. You have all experienced the opportunity of the decline of the kingdom and suffered all the hardships. So you should all understand what Sives's behavior means."
He swept over the two elders of the other two city-states of the Three City Alliance, and bowed his head to the two elders who had no face to see others, saying, "Can you two stay temporarily after the meeting?"
"Dylan, contact Elder Sives immediately, I want to meet him in person."
"This is the summoning from the head of state, and from all the armies and the supreme commander of the guards, who has no right to refuse."
Pericre said to the silent senators, "I emphasize again that there is no independent alliance in the kingdom that even the Senate cannot control."
