Chapter 720: The Abandoned Crown Prince of the Zuan Empire
Kabaeva once said that the Kingdom of Chester fought this war with all its might, which clearly showed that this great power was not brainless.
There must be certain reasons and logic for them to dare to go to war. At least they saw some hope of victory.
Kabaeva smiled and continued:
"Okay! The Kingdom of Chester is taking advantage of this war to eliminate the armed forces of the church in the country! The Mercenary Association and the Assassin's Guild here have already received the mission, and they will launch operations across the country soon. Moreover, the 20,000 Royal Knights are also waiting for an opportunity to move!"
She explained that once the war started, the church's armed forces would be closely monitored, and if they made any moves, they would be severely attacked. However, this matter had nothing to do with us, so we didn't need to pay any attention to it.
This is really a clever chess game! The war was just to distract the attention of the church's armed forces. Before this, the secret priests spread the plague. Although it happened in the distant Pumasai, it was enough to attract the royal family's attention.
As a result, a large-scale investigation was launched across the country. During this process, they quietly marked those church armed forces, waiting for the right opportunity to catch them all in one fell swoop.
Therefore, when this organization has the ability to overthrow the imperial power, they will either gain endless wealth and glory, or end up dying without a burial place.
The Royal Knights are responsible for dealing with the church's armed forces, and they have quietly arrived this time. They are definitely better off than the Pumaas, because they had no time to deploy military forces, which led to chaos in the country.
Kabaeva of course fully supports this battle, so she sent a large number of anti-magic potions to ensure that they can withstand a few waves of attacks when they encounter the Paladins. Of course, the alchemists of the major magic towers took on a large number of tasks and made a lot of money. Anyway, Vita gave money and worked hard to create it.
With this production capacity, the work of an alchemist in one year is equivalent to that of ten years, so the war is a huge investment. Chester has silently dealt a blow to the Zaun Empire like a sharp blade, and let's see its reaction first.
Kabaeva then continued: "The surrounding countries have all had their territories annexed by the Zaun Empire! Nowadays, the surrounding areas are either barren or poor, so the Zaun Empire has long lost the need to expand.
It’s not that he is kind, but the surrounding lands are worthless and will become a burden to the empire! Then the surrounding countries are afraid and angry about him, but dare not speak out...”
Now that I listen to it, it seems to make sense. A big country has its own troubles, and the hatred of its neighboring countries seems to be the entry point. It seems that Master Kabaeva is not unprepared. Everyone seems to be thinking about the conditions for victory, so there is complete silence.
Kashin wrote with a vigorous pen. Although the characters were crooked and ugly, the basic conditions were recorded and only he could understand them.
Kabaeva had said a lot, so she drank another sip of water and continued, "My fellow comrades, two wars were fought simultaneously inside and outside Chester. Of course, Viteta gave them a lot of resources...
So, this move is related to the survival of the entire country! As trusted people, we magicians must not let them down, let alone Chester. Therefore, everyone must fight with all their strength and never treat this matter as a joke..."
"Master, since the entire Kingdom of Chester has joined this battle, we must go all out no matter how difficult it is. So, please quickly announce the specific tasks so that we can clearly define our respective responsibilities."
Kabaeva smiled and said, "Mok from Yong'an Tower, don't be anxious, sit down first. You said it very well! Next, we really need to discuss the battle plan.
However, before that, it is more important for us to unite everyone's hearts and minds so that everyone can reach a consensus. Only in this way can we defeat the enemy! "
"The new order is in the common interest of all of us magicians. We all hope that civilians can recognize the laws of nature and do good according to these laws, so that the world will become more advanced and peaceful. Instead of kneeling down to worship those illusory gods like now, causing the world to become dark and the people to become ignorant... Only in this way can we magicians gain more wealth and status..."
The meeting was almost always filled with applause, so once again the magicians stood up and applauded...
Kabaeva was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Let's applaud later. Let's talk business. Tomorrow we will set out through the teleportation array and go to the territory of Zaun Empire for resettlement. So the bigger the country, the more difficult it is to rule, and it is inevitable that it is difficult to satisfy everyone..."
Kabaeva told the royal secrets of the Zaun Empire. It turned out that there had been a struggle for succession, and the 40-year-old prince was forced to give up the throne and was exiled to a small town in the south of the empire to become an idle prince.
Twenty years passed in a flash, and the deposed crown prince was still brooding over it. Later, Kabaeva personally visited him and expressed her willingness to cooperate to regain his position.
As for the trading conditions, they are very relaxed, and all you have to do is purchase the country's magic materials at a reasonable price.
The abandoned prince had been disheartened for many years and had no hope for his future. However, the strong intervention of the Magic Island was like a ray of light, illuminating his dark world.
This rekindled a glimmer of hope in him, as if he saw the possibility of realizing his wish.
However, reality cruelly told him that the only ones who could really help him achieve his wish were the church or the magic island. But it was obvious that the church would never be able to do justice for a deposed prince.
In this situation, a seemingly insignificant and idle prince became a key figure. Although the prince had neither military force nor political resources, it was not difficult for him to be given some conveniences.
Thus, a bold idea gradually took shape in Kabaeva's mind - they could sneak into the empire, start a secret battle, and turn the empire upside down first.
As for the follow-up plans, Kabaeva made it clear that there is no specific plan at present, and that problems can only be discovered through actual combat, and combat strategies can be continuously adjusted and formulated.
Kashin lamented that this was the first time he fought such an uncertain battle. For the sake of materials, Viteta was definitely taking a risk. In recent days, he had sent a large number of magicians for diplomatic mediation and spent a lot of money, which did have some effect.
Blainey was not in favor of fighting all along, and remained silent for fear of affecting morale. Moreover, if the material problem was solved, there would be hope for the Rock III and the new French anti-war armor, and Rosita would be the biggest beneficiary.
Kabaeva, the head coach, was really too bold to try it despite the huge disparity in strength. Although there was a waste prince to assist, it was still extremely difficult to succeed.
