Chapter 17, Reaction of the Parties(1/2)

The bad news of the fall of Augustus Kingdom came, which made this ancient kingdom fall into panic.

As old neighbors, they couldn't know what Augustus means.

Although we are allies now, there were many wars between the two countries before the orc neighbors arrived.

More than one war has occurred between the two countries around the August Fort region.

Open the map and you will know that Augustus Fort is not only the northern gate of the Duchy of Mosey, but also the gateway to the northeastern region of the Warhammer Kingdom.

The defense line of Moxi Duchy collapsed, and loopholes also appeared in the northern defense line of the Warhammer Kingdom.

If the orc army turns the attack direction, it will be difficult for them to block the enemy's troops, and they may have to passively shrink the defense line.

"Strategic contraction" sounds like nothing, but the price it needs to be paid to implement is enough to make people cry.

Give up large tracts of land is second, and strategically comprehensive passiveness is truly deadly.

Looking northeastward, Joseph II asked expectantly: "What are the plans of the Duchy of Mosey? Have you considered regaining Augustus?"

In order to cover up the real purpose and complete this sneak attack, almost all the orcs' main forces were attacking the Alpha Kingdom.

In addition to the army of the Eagle Imperial Court, most of the beast soldiers faced by the Duchy of Moxi were cannon fodder.

The real army of orcs is still on the way to come. If you want to recover Augustus, now is the best opportunity.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid you will be disappointed!

The Duchy of Moxi was shocked by this sudden bad news.

In addition to seeking assistance from various countries, we are busy evacuating the people and deploying a second line of defense.

Except for a few military generals who proposed to recapture Augustus, most of the nobles were afraid of the orc army as if they were tigers.

Fortunately, the resistance of the August Fort defenders was quite tenacious.

Instead of evacuating with the help of night, they stayed and entangled with the orc army, buying time for the Duchy of Moxi."

Foreign Minister Cassidy said helplessly.

Standing on the standpoint of the Warhammer Kingdom, we naturally hope that the Duchy of Mosey can recover the lost territory and rebuild the August Fort defense line.

But it is different from the position of the Duchy of Moxi. What they need is to preserve their strength and deal with orcs as much as possible, rather than to fight with the orcs with the main force.

Maybe there is a burst of life and there is hope of regaining Augustus from the orcs, but what should I do next?

After the baptism of war, the broken defense line is difficult to stop the orc army from attacking.

The defense line that was recovered at a heavy price could not stop the orcs' military attack. Instead of doing so, it is better to directly activate the second line of defense.

As for where the orcs will fight after they seize Augustus Castle, Mosey's Principality doesn't care about it.

Now they can guard the rules. If they can't defend, they will retreat all the way. If they can't retreat, they will go into the castle and become nail houses.

Faced with the numerous noble castles, the orc army is not allowed to be pulled out one by one in time, so everyone can bet on luck.

According to the experience of the Alpha Kingdom in resisting the invasion of the Orcs, as long as the turtle shell is strong enough, the orcs will change their targets to attack after the attack is frustrated.

After the most difficult time, reinforcements from various countries of the human race came over, and everyone could fight out of the castle to recover the lost land.

I was almost out of my mind, so my allies were naturally not in their consideration. If the orc army turned around, they might even have to hold a banquet to celebrate.

"Start the backup plan. Deploy heavy troops immediately in the northeast region of the Kingdom, and be sure to block the orc army outside the country's gates.

Forget it, I will go and invite the old marshal to come out in person.

At this time, only he has the ability to block orcs from the country for more than half a year!"

Joseph II said physically and mentally exhausted.

They were all forced out. The Kingdom of Alpha could not break through, so they turned around to attack the Principality of Moxi. Obviously, the orcs also knew that persimmons were picking soft.

The same is true for the next battle. Whoever shows fatigue first will become the focus of the orc's next attack.

A single orc empire cannot be an opponent of the entire human race. If they want to win the war, they must attract more aliens to participate.

With the reputation of orcs, it is almost impossible to fool everyone into joining the war.

The only way is to tell the overlord of all races with a beautiful record that the human race is already corrupt and the time to overthrow this mountain is ripe.

If you want to have a good record, you can only choose a bully and beat it up. Continuing your previous style of fighting with the Alpha Kingdom will definitely have no future.

Under this background, Joseph II could only let go of his prejudice and asked the marshal, who had the highest prestige in the kingdom's army, to come out.

"Your Majesty, Marshal Borg is old and has retired for many years.

I'm afraid it's a bit bad to bother him now, right?"

Prime Minister Gai Yin reminded him in a vague way.

Political struggles cannot be avoided by any country.

Especially in peaceful times, there are more such things.

Marshal Borg, who is the pillar of the kingdom, is a victim of political struggle.

Fortunately, the morality of the Warhammer Kingdom has not yet been lost, and political struggles still abide by the rules of the game.

Joseph II just tried to drive the respected old marshal home to support him, but did not kill him.

Political struggles don’t matter whether they are right or wrong, they are all caused by power.

Marshal Borg's prestige was too high, which affected the royal power.

The king wants to take power, and it is only normal to drive him home.

Now that it is necessary, it is understandable to invite people out. But in this way, the dominance will come to the other party.

If you retire once, you can’t do anything in vain. It is inevitable to take the opportunity to make conditions.

Even if Marshal Borg is selfless and does not ask for anything, his faction will not be willing to be lonely.

For vested interest groups, they must cut off their own losses and appease the other party.

If you are not careful, it will be another political storm.

"No need to say more, Marshal Borg is the pillar of my warhammer kingdom. Now that the country is in danger, he will definitely not refuse!"

Joseph II said firmly.

In the Kingdom of Warhammer, Marshal Borg is a legend, who once tried to save the kingdom from the brink of danger.

Even a political competitor does not affect Joseph II's heartfelt respect.

...

The Principal of Orton, looking at the Duchy of Mosey's letter of help, Orton's 19th was in a bad mood.

As a good neighbor, the Principality of Orton is only five hundred miles away from Augustus Castle.

It sounds like this distance is very far, but this is the magical world.

If the Duchy of Mosey collapses, the fastest wolf cavalry of the orcs will be able to reach their doorstep the next day.

The powerful Duchy of Mosey could not stop the orcs' military attacks, and the Duchy of Orton was even more hopeless.

Building defense fortifications?

Unfortunately, the Principality of Orton never expected that the war would be so close to them.

In the past orc invasions, none of them affected them, and the Principality of Orton did not take the orc invasion to heart.

I originally thought that the Three Kingdoms in the North were ahead, so they followed the fishing and shouted slogans and the war was over.

Even if the Three Kingdoms cannot withstand it, it will be in the middle and late stages of the war. At that time, reinforcements from various countries of the human race will almost set off, and they only need to lead the army to follow.

With the strong strength of the human race, you can harvest countless flowers and applause by crushing them all the way.

"The Duchy of Mosey is such a bunch of waste!

With such a manifestation, he dares to be called the first principality of the human race.

I really don’t know why this title fell on them. It’s simply a shame for our human race.

Look at the Alpha Kingdom next door, and after fighting with the orcs for so long, they are still entangled on the border.

The Warhammer Kingdom on the side performed a hundred times better than theirs…”

The endless curses exposed the uneasiness of Orton's nineteenth generation.

As a quiet melon-eating crowd, Orton XIX has been known for its stability since he ascended the throne.

We have never carried out reforms internally, nor have we provoked neighborhood conflicts externally, let alone launched wars.

My biggest hobby is to watch others fight and comment on it.

Such a king is not outstanding, but he is not a prodigal son.

When I met a king who was not troubled, the Principality of Orton had a good life over the years.

Without military service, at least the living standards of the nobles in the country are rising sharply.

It has been proved by facts that even if the noble lords guard the fiefdom and farm, they can still make a fortune.

Such a settled king is rare in the entire Aslant continent.
