Chapter 535 Christo Hills

"...Now you understand. When your cousin, Queen Sisi, wrote you to ask for help, she hid most of the facts. She told her love with the Wexus Knight to shock the world and make ghosts and gods just to move you. In fact, she couldn't even figure out who the child in her belly was..." Lorist stroked Princess Celivia's soft and slender hair that was nestled in front of her chest.

Princess Celivia raised her head and she was full of tears. Even if her cousin Princess Sissi lives in a bad habit, she is still unable to let go of her for a long time.

"I hate my grandfather, how could he do it? Xixi is also his granddaughter. The child is about to be born..." Princess Celivia choked up.

"Baby, don't be sad. Let him go after the incident has happened..." Lorist comforted him: "Actually, our king is not unaware of Queen Sissi's affair, but he just didn't care about it. He and your cousin are just for the sake of profit, pulling your Fisabrun family into his chariot and checking and balancing our Norton family. So all he needs is a queen from the Fisabrun family so that your grandfather can stand with him.

If your cousin Xixi is self-aware, no matter how many lovers she finds, His Majesty will not pay attention to her. But she shouldn't have tempted the Wexus Knights, and she is pregnant. You know that the Wexus Knights is His Majesty's illegitimate child and his majesty's intentional heir. Queen Xixi also seduced the Wexus Knights while dating other lovers, but she ended up having a big belly but didn't know whose child it was. This is a way to die.

His Majesty said that he had to prevent the birth of this child because he was worried that the child would be likely to be used by someone in the future to make the inheritance of the Wexas Knights. So he could only make such a decision. Although it was a bit cruel and cruel, it was his only choice. Your grandfather knew this very well. We are nobles, not ordinary civilians, and we cannot tolerate certain things that exceed the rules. …”

Although Princess Celivia was still a little sad, she was not an unreasonable person. She lay on Lorist's chest and said nothing, then fell asleep. Lorist hugged her in her arms, then gently placed her on the pillow next to her, covered her with a thin velvet quilt, and then continued to lean against the bed and think.

The second highman came hurriedly and went back. The first purpose of his visit was to inform Lorist of what happened in the imperial capital. After all, Lorist was also the kingdom's sword saint. He had to get Lorist's support for many things. The second thing he hoped Lorist could accept Vixas as his disciple, which was paving the way for his illegitimate son. However, Lorist refused. Lorist said that the disciple he wanted to accept must be sixteen years old and served as a servant by his side for two years. After he examined his character, he could only consider whether to accept it as a disciple. Unfortunately, the Knights of the Wixas did not meet Lorist's requirements in any aspect.

The last thing for the Second Highness was to inform the itinerary and arrange the date of the resumption of the country and ascend to the throne. The Second Highness originally planned to hold a grand celebration half a year after returning to the imperial capital, announcing that he had restored and unified all the territory of the former Crison Empire, reuse the name of the Crison Empire, and he would also ascend the throne to become the Great Emperor Oroseg of the Revival Empire.

But he didn't expect that the second highness of Queen Sisi's pregnancy just returned to the imperial capital, and after dealing with this royal scandal, the second highness had no face to hold any grand ceremony in the short term, and even had no face to continue staying in the imperial capital. He could only delay the date of ascending the throne, so he used the excuse of patrolling the entire empire to go to various provinces to inspect the people's conditions, then go to the Feisabren family territory to marry a queen, and finally return to the imperial capital to hold the throne ceremony.

In addition to these three things, the Second Highness also wants to see if he can reach an armistice agreement with the Commercial Alliance in the past two years to restore peace. He does not want the throne ceremony to be disturbed by the Commercial Alliance again in two years. However, Lorist told him clearly that he should not have any hope of peace talks about the Commercial Alliance, and it is better to carefully study how to completely eliminate this enemy.

What Lorist needs to consider now is an application report submitted by the Autonomous Commission of the City of Morient. This time it is not for money, but requests the Norton family to recapture the Cristo Hills or provide assistance to the Autonomous Commission. The report says that the Cristo Hills have been the territory of the City of Morient since ancient times, and although they are barren, they are indispensable. It provides the city with firewood, charcoal, meat such as pigs, dogs, cattle, sheep, poultry, coarse grains and feed such as potatoes and oats, as well as many raw materials for the production of raw materials. The most important thing is that the trade route from the Cristo Hills to the Titanini Mountains can trade goods with the dwarf kingdom, which is very important for the revived commercial economy of the City of Morient.

Lorist discovered that many times the plan did not change quickly, and even the plan could not keep up with the changes in the situation. Just like the Second Highness planned to gather a million troops to reach the border of the Manlichurch Plain, and prepared to use its huge force to force the Commercial Alliance to agree to his request to return the occupied former Crison Empire territory and then sign a peace agreement. Unfortunately, the Commercial Alliance only dispatched a Storm Sword Saint, which made the Second Highness look dirty. The two sides finally fought bloody battles in the Manlichurch Plain for three years.

For example, the Norton family armed forces defeated the Invincible Armada, landed in the Zangjin Bay, captured the Moriente City and the Manuel Hill Plain, and were preparing to use this to force the Commercial Alliance to bow down and sign a ceasefire agreement to restore peace. No one expected that the Commercial Alliance would neatly abandon the Moriente City and withdraw the Manuel Hill Plain. As a result, Lorist led the Norton family armed forces into the Moriente City pit, and there was no way to escape.

So Lorist had no choice but to start a new business and prepare to establish a Liberal Alliance to compete with the Commercial Alliance. For this reason, he invested a huge sum of 14 million Jinford to invest in Morent City to increase the strength of the Liberal Alliance. But the current situation is that the guys in charge of the Autonomous Committee of Morent City are not fools, they are all scammers. They do not refuse to become the new Liberal Alliance in power, but they also understand that without the support of the Norton family, they cannot resist the attack of the Commercial Alliance, so they wish that the deeper the bond between the Norton family and the Liberal Alliance, the better. The report on applying for the recovery of the Christo Hills was also for this purpose.

Lorist sighed. For him, the ideal situation was that the Commercial Alliance armed forces and the upcoming Free Alliance armed forces fought and killed in the Manaqiu Plain, while the Norton family armed forces watched the drama later. When the Commercial Alliance armed forces revealed any flaws, they would give it a fatal blow. This would not only win without paying too much casualties, but also be regarded as a life-saving benefactor by the Free Alliance. That ending would be perfect.

But now the Mollent City Autonomous Committee is going to push the Norton family armed forces on the front line of the Manulich Hill to block the attack of the Commercial Alliance armed forces so as to gain time for the development of the Free Alliance. Seeing that the six Free Corps have been formed and completed training to prepare to go to the six fortress cities in the Manulich Hills to switch defenses with the Norton family armed forces on defense, they came up with the idea of ​​regaining the Christo Hills. This clearly does not want the Norton family armed forces to easily evacuate from the front line.

In more than five months, the Norton Family Armed Forces helped the Mollant City Autonomous Committee form six free corpses composed of 8,000 people. They were preparing to defend the six fortress cities on the Mana Hill Plain. However, the application report submitted by the Autonomous Committee for the recovery of the Christo Hills stated that it hoped to dispatch three free corpses to recover the Christo Hills with the help of the Norton Family Armed Forces. The remaining three free corpses were two to protect the Thomas and Gipses, and one stayed in Mollant City.

They are all talented and have a good plan. Lorist smiled bitterly. Thomas City and Gipsse City are the two fortress cities closest to Morient City. The land around the city has been sorted and pioneered, and will soon be allocated to the residents of Morient City who purchased farms for cultivation and planting. It can be said that they are two very safe fortress cities in the rear. The four fortress cities in the front will face attacks from the armed forces of the Commercial Alliance at any time. The guys from the Autonomous Committee clearly want the Rock Legion to continue to guard the four fortress cities in the front for them so as to resist the armed forces of the Commercial Alliance.

Besides, what does the Christo Hill need three free corps to recapture? The Commercial Alliance once divided the Christo Hill into fifty-two territories and enthroned 52 territorial nobles. However, these canonized lords were not from the Chamber of Commerce, but those who were respected in the eyes of the residents of Moriente City. For example, the deans of various colleges, civil servants who served Moriente City for most of their lives, as well as well-known scholars, experts and professors, great pharmacists, etc.

However, most of these lords who were enthroned by the Commercial Alliance were not buy-in. Except for a very small number of lords who went to their own territory to work hard, many people didn't even know where their territory was. They were even more overwhelming to prove the enthronement documents and refused to accept the titles and territories enthroned by the Commercial Alliance. They said that the villagers living in the Christo Hills were already suffering enough, so how could they take themselves as lords to exploit them...

This is the current situation of Christo Hills, and Lorist is not unfamiliar with this place. When he was a happy little mercenary in Moriente, he often received errands to the Christo Hills. In Lorist's view, the real reason for the poor and poor villagers living in the Christo Hills was the inaction of the Business Alliance back then. If the Business Alliance could carry out large-scale infrastructure construction in the Christo Hills, the villagers of the Christo Hills would have been lifted out of poverty and become rich long ago.

However, Lorist also knew that the high-spirited business alliance could not raise huge amounts of funds for large-scale infrastructure construction in the Christo Hills, and the later commercial alliance led by the Chamber of Commerce would be even more unlikely to use Jinfud to develop the Christo Hills. I remember that after the establishment of the Business Alliance, it dispatched troops to quell the mountain rebellion that occurred in the Christo Hills. The war brought very heavy casualties to the seven giants of the Business Alliance.

Therefore, the major chambers of commerce did not have any good feelings for the Christo Hills, and even more than a hundred years later, they regarded the Christo Hills as a wilderness. When the famous people in the City of Morient criticized their unwillingness to develop the Christo Hills, the seven giants of the Business Alliance simply enthroned the Christo Hills to those who are the most famous, so you can develop them yourself!

According to Tager's investigation, it is very easy to recover the Christo Hills. Just send a corps to go on a walk. Because there is no defensive force in the Christo Hills. There is no decent territory castle there, and the mountain people living in the hills are still used to living in villages. But the real difficulty is that after the recovery, one is to send the legion to garrison, and the other is that there is a large package in the Christo Hills, which is the Port of Elbany, which was led by the Admiral Senbawood, the North Sea Fleet, and the lightning strike fleet, was burned clean by the Port of Elbany.

This is a harbor city located at the junction of the Christo Hills and the Titanini Mountains. It is also the only city in the Christo Hills. It connects a major transportation route to enter and go to the sea. It is said that after being burned by Senbawood, there were still 50,000 or 60,000 refugees gathered there to collect wild fruits, pick up seafood on the beach and fish for a living.

Lorist discovered tragically that if he agreed to recover the Christo Hills, it would be another big pit, and he might have to take on the responsibility of rebuilding the Port of Erbany. However, the reasons in the application report submitted by the Morient City Autonomous Committee were also open and honest. The Christo Hills were related to the important sources of people's livelihood, such as fuel, meat, coarse grains and raw materials for production, and they could not be included in the jurisdiction of the Free Alliance.

The relationship between the Norton family and the Morient City Autonomous Committee is very delicate. Both sides rely on each other and use each other. The Norton family naturally wants to get some rewards after investing huge amounts of funds in Morient City. Moreover, Morient City will become the most important dumping and transfer wholesale base for goods and goods produced in the family territory in the future. Therefore, Lorist is not willing to arouse the resistance of millions of urban residents in Morient City. He needs the cooperation of the Autonomous Committee to help himself maintain the business order of Morient City and become the enemy of the commercial alliance.

The Mollent City Autonomous Committee regards the Norton family armed forces as a guarantee to resist the invasion of the commercial alliance armed forces. They also do not want Mollent City to fall under the rule of the Chamber of Commerce of the Commercial Alliance again. It was a dark day. On this point, the Autonomous Committee and Lorist had the same purpose, and they were also willing to establish a free alliance. But under this premise, it also contained their selfish desire to preserve their armed forces and use the Norton family armed forces as shields.

After thinking about it, Lorist finally made up his mind to notify the Morient City Autonomous Committee tomorrow that the original plan of the six Free Corps to take over the six fortress cities in the Manichul Plain remains unchanged. Lorist needs to withdraw the Rock Legion and send it back to the family territory. After all, the four main legions of the family armed forces cannot all stay here, and one must go back to guard the house.

Moriente City is guarded by El's Guards. El's originated from the community organization of Moriente City and is also the boss of Ledos. He can easily communicate with the Autonomous Committee. The Hunting Legion is still responsible for patrol and alerting the Manuel Hills. As for the recovery of the Christo Hills, Tiger Ross led the Flying Tiger Legion to go there. I believe that the Autonomous Committee of Moriente City has nothing to say for such an arrangement.

On November 21, 1779, before the arrival of winter, the Norton family armed forces dispatched the Flying Tiger Legion to occupy the Christo Hills, and the Commercial Alliance still did not respond to this.
