Chapter 333 Undercurrent
The first ray of sunshine in the morning spread across the earth. Hudson yawned and got up from the bed under Melissa's resentful eyes.
After all, I am still inexperienced. I had too much fun last night and accidentally made the bride unable to get out of bed.
Hudson was also helpless about this. The magician's physical strength was really not as good as that of the knight. He didn't even try his best, and Melissa couldn't do it.
"Have a good rest. I will arrange for someone to deliver the food. There are too many important guests coming this time. I have to go to receive them, so I won't be here to accompany you."
Hudson said softly.
If it were just an ordinary marriage of big nobles, it would be good to invite one-third of the big nobles present. After all, the Koslow family has no friendship with everyone, and a nouveau riche is not worthy of being praised.
No matter what the reason was, Hudson had to be careful with the gathering of representatives from all the major forces in the north.
If the next thing is handled well, his network of contacts will extend to the entire northern continent; if it is messed up, it may be a disaster.
It is not uncommon in aristocratic circles to destroy something if you can't get it. From the beginning, Hudson never thought about seducing himself and occupying the Argon Warcraft Legion on his own.
The nobles are not stupid, how can they watch the mountain leader's family dominate. Once he discovers that his own arrangements may be threatened, he will be greeted by a thunderous strike.
The best option is for everyone to work together. When everyone has a Warcraft Legion, the Warcraft Legion in the Mountain Territory will be inconspicuous.
If you look at the other three major dragon knights in the mainland, you will know that none of them has exclusive rights to the descendants of giant dragons. Of course, there have been exceptions in history. For example, if the mount is a female dragon, no one will make any decisions.
It's not that everyone has high moral standards, it's mainly because the dragon's reproductive capacity is really pitifully low. It's impossible for ordinary monsters to make a dragon pregnant, let alone humans.
In history, someone offended a female tyrannosaurus because of this, and then was surrounded and beaten by a group of her suitors. The end was miserable.
"Go to work first!"
Melissa said with a smile.
The good aristocratic education prevented her from being willful. From the time she can remember, the words "the overall situation is the most important" have been imprinted in her bones.
A sensible wife can always make people feel happy. Nodding in response, Hudson stepped out of the room.
The "dragon breeding plan" involves too much. Just look at the number of nobles attending the wedding and you will know how many forces are interested in it.
Hudson can't figure out the network of relationships involved at home and abroad at all.
After sighing deeply, he knew that the next thing could only be left to the kingdom to handle.
Just think about it in your mind to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune. If you really do it, you will most likely choke to death.
If a noble contacts him privately, he can be extorted at will, and no one can say anything about what he wants.
But the problem now is that everyone comes together as a group.
Although formal contact has not yet been made, from the intelligence collected, he already knows that all the major forces in the northern continent have proposed to the kingdom to join this plan.
Looking up at the sky, Hudson suddenly understood. Since he couldn't rip off the money, he would just sell him a favor.
You can make money at any time; but building a network of contacts is not that simple!
What's more, the more forces involved and the more resources invested, the greater the probability of achieving results.
In an instant, Hudson sensed a business opportunity. A large number of monsters gathered in the mountain territory, and they had to eat.
These guys are not something that can be dealt with by a few pieces of black bread. Most of the monsters are carnivores or omnivores, and only a few are vegetarians.
Even if some of these female beasts are vegetarians, their next generation will switch to eating meat. Hudson has no doubt about the genetic impact on the dragon.
When a group of big-eating kings gather together, it is easy to kill thousands of cattle and sheep every day.
If nothing else goes wrong, the breeding industry in the mountainous areas will have a great opportunity to develop vigorously.
World of Warcraft has to be consumed, and those involved in R&D and management must also consume it.
There are many famous "big shots" among these people, and together with the guards and servants, there must be at least tens of thousands of people.
If this model continues, the Mountain Territory will immediately become the largest Warcraft breeding base in the Northern Continent, and may even have the opportunity to develop into the largest Warcraft breeding base in the entire continent in the future.
Warcraft is jointly owned by all the major forces, but the beneficiary of the commercial and trade prosperity it brings is Hudson himself.
The most important thing is that the influx of a large number of talents has also created opportunities for him to poach people. There is a high probability that famous big shots cannot be poached, but their apprentices and juniors may be poached.
If the infrastructure is well developed, a bunch of supporting industrial economies may emerge: for example: magic potions, various alchemies...
From this perspective, the more forces involved and the greater the investment, the faster the development of the mountain territory will be.
…
Lutetia, in the royal palace.
"Your Majesty, Earl Hudson's wedding brings together all the major forces in the Northern Continent. According to the information we have collected, this gathering is led by the Mossi people, with the intention of uniting all parties to create a Warcraft Legion.
The current state of the Alpha Kingdom is not good, not to mention the lack of financial resources, and the time of intervention is too late. If they want to build a Warcraft Army with their own strength, they may not be able to do it.
With the style of Caesar III, there is a high probability that he will choose to join forces with major forces at this time."
Foreign Minister Jesus said with a solemn expression.
After the war against the orcs ended, and the three major countries in the northern continent fell into collective decline, they were no longer the focus of the Frankish Kingdom.
But now that all parties have united, the situation has become different. Although many small countries have poor overall national strength, it does not mean that they have no talents.
Occasionally, a few master alchemists, magic apothecaries, and arcane masters will pop up... That's also very possible.
These people are scattered among the major forces and are inconspicuous. Once they are gathered together, the power they can explode becomes unusual.
If this is used as an opportunity to allow the major forces in the northern continent to establish a military alliance, the situation in the entire Aslant continent will change.
Thinking of this, Charles III faintly regretted that he should not have crippled the Orc Empire with one stick.
However, this feeling of regret did not last long. It is easy to talk about the alliance, but if you really want to implement it, it will become very difficult.
In the past, when faced with the threat of orcs, all the major forces were unable to unite, let alone think about it now.
"There is no need to worry too much. Although Caesar III's methods are powerful, the major forces in the Northern Continent are not fuel-efficient. In the current state of the Alpha Kingdom, there is simply no strength to integrate all parties.
When it suits the interests of all parties, they can join forces briefly. Once this bond of interest is lost, the alliance will immediately cease to exist in name only.
Warcraft Legion was not created in a day or two. We have spent decades of hard work to achieve the current results. We only started to intervene at this time, and we are already lagging behind.
At present, our real opponent is still the Holy See, followed by continental powers such as Iberia."
Charles III said with a smile.
In his view, when the orc threat was at its most serious, Caesar III failed to integrate the countries in the Northern Continent, and there is no chance now.
The scattered northern continent does not pose any threat to the Frankish Kingdom. Just pay a little attention to them, and there is no need to waste too much energy on them.
"Your Majesty, the internal organizational capabilities of the Alpha Kingdom far exceed those of other countries on the mainland, so we still cannot take them lightly.
At this time, it is best to find something for them to do and delay their plans as much as possible.
Considering the current international situation, we can leave this villain to the Holy See. I think Pius VII won’t mind if he takes a stab at it for us.”
Prime Minister Bergson reminded him.
As long as they are competitors, they must be suppressed. Occasionally joining forces is just a matter of interest. When interests conflict, there must be no less evil hands.
"The prime minister means to take action from their debts?"
Charles III asked slightly hesitantly.
The current situation on the mainland is generally stable, and most of the major human forces are busy immigrating to develop the prairie, and it is not easy to cause trouble.
It is almost impossible to just sow discord and disrupt the alliance between the northern countries. Even if a few fools are fooled, the loss of a few participants will continue to affect the overall situation.
The best option is to attack the Alpha Kingdom directly, leaving them busy to take care of themselves and delaying the plan to build the Warcraft Legion.
"Your Majesty, the debt problem is indeed a problem for the Alpha Kingdom, but this is still not enough.
If they take action on this issue, it is estimated that they can survive the crisis. In the end, the principality of Moxi may be in a more serious crisis.
According to the intelligence we have collected, Caesar III's health had problems a few years ago, and he was assassinated last year. He is probably struggling now.
Under normal circumstances, he would live for at most two or three years before meeting the Lord of the Dawn. If something happened to make him angry again, this time would be even shorter.
For example: there is a problem with the heir.
The Holy See is very good at this. As long as we push it in secret, they should get things done.
If the death of Caesar III coincides with the outbreak of the debt crisis, probably no one will be able to care about the Warcraft Legion plan."
Prime Minister Bergson said calmly.
Originally, he was not prepared to trick the Alpha Kingdom, but the major forces in the Northern Continent quickly moved closer, allowing him to see potential threats.
Once the major forces in the northern continent, led by the Alpha Kingdom, form an alliance, another top force will be added to the continent that can compete with Frank.
As the prime minister of the Frankish Kingdom, he had to be ruthless against the Alpha Kingdom for the benefit of the country.
I don't have the guts to kill a king, but if I piss off Caesar III, I don't have the pressure.
Especially since you can complete the plan without taking action yourself, just by borrowing a knife to kill people.
After a slight hesitation, Charles III nodded. The method was indeed a bit despicable, but as long as others didn't know it was them.
You can even wait until the incident occurs, then reach out to the Alpha Kingdom and sell a big favor.
