"They are not cooperating with us, but protecting their interests in the northern continent and their status as the continent's hegemon. A Maxim Empire is enough to give them a headache. I believe they don't want another Merox Empire."
Xia Ya analyzed calmly.
The rise of any country must come to power by stepping on the corpses of other countries and dividing the interests of other countries.
Under such circumstances, disputes between countries are inevitable, otherwise how can they declare their sovereignty.
In times of peace, diplomatic and economic means can be used, but in times of war, there is only the simplest and most violent method - war.
Emperor Foer nodded and said in appreciation.
"You're right, Xia Ya, you really surprised me. I didn't expect that in addition to your outstanding military talents, you also have such unique insights in political strategy."
"Who is willing to send an envoy to the two countries?" Emperor Foer asked.
There was silence in the entire hall, and finally it was Xia who stood up and made the suggestion.
"Your Majesty, Kira of the Yamato family is qualified. He is currently lurking in national activities between the Magic City and the Melox Empire. It is most appropriate for him to be in charge of the Magic City."
"Well, who is responsible for the Eastern Divine Religion?" Emperor Foer asked again.
Yulian took the initiative to ask for help.
"I would like to go to the Eastern God Sect."
"good!"
The Eastern God's Cult and the Capital of Magic also received the news that the Ottoman Kingdom had been taken over by the Melox Empire. However, the reaction of the Eastern God's Cult was mediocre. Who told them to be kicked out so quickly? Their interests were minimal, no matter what.
It's worthy of their efforts.
The response from the Magic City was much more intense. After all, the subordinate countries of the Magic City that are close to the border of the Ottoman Kingdom have established huge trade relations with the Ottoman Kingdom.
Once they lose the Ottoman Kingdom, their initial aid will be in vain, and the Ottoman Kingdom still owes them a large sum of money. Who will they find to go to at that time?
Magisters representing several countries on the border of the Magic City have requested to send troops to the Ottoman Kingdom.
Looking at the noisy representatives in the parliament, Alonso in the corner looked horribly gloomy. Aslan actually had the tendency to unify the northern continent, and he was also a powerful magician.
It was even more difficult for him to kill Aslan.
Since Alonso became a demon, his strength has greatly increased, and his cultivation has progressed rapidly. Now he is in the middle stage of the magister, and his actual combat power is no longer inferior to that of a veteran magister like Patrick. You must know that Patrick is already a powerful magister at the peak.
Patrick's face was complicated when he heard that the rise of the Merlox Empire had become a powerful threat to the hegemony of the Magic City, which made Patrick feel uncomfortable.
He has been planning his whole life just to join the Magic City, the continent's magic temple, so that he can have a chance to become a powerful Grand Mage.
The pinnacle figure in mainland China.
However, he worked hard all his life and finally joined most of his family, which could be regarded as a successful completion of his life goal. However, in the end, he found that everything he had worked hard for had been completed by his son who had abandoned him and even looked down upon him.
If he had supported Aslan from the beginning, he might have become a powerful Grand Magister like Duke Medea.
It is said that the number of great mentor-level experts in the Melox Empire now exceeds double digits.
"Everyone, please stop arguing and let's vote!" Finally, the Speaker of the Magic Parliament, St. Peter, put an end to the farce.
This is the biggest drawback of the Magic Council. The adoption of any policy plan requires several days of arguing, and it may not be passed in the end. This is also the reason why the Magic City and the Eastern God's Sect have joined forces and still cannot win the Maxim Empire.
The benefits of centralized power are much stronger than those of a parliamentary system in terms of war mobilization and resource allocation.
In the end, the hawk representative won with a slim score of three votes.
This is still Saint Peter's deviation, otherwise it would be normal to vote a few times.
The countries close to the Ottoman Kingdom have huge interests involved, but the countries on the other side of the southern continent have no benefits at all. It is very difficult to get them to vote to send troops to go to war.
Once troops are sent to go to war, military expenses and food must be shared equally by all countries. This is also the key reason why the Magic City has always been unable to act as one.
Saint Peter knew that this sidestep had caused dissatisfaction among many great magisters, but he had no choice, as Char said, unless the Magic City was willing to see the rise of another Maxim Empire.
The only thing he has to do now is to wait, believing that the Maxim Empire will send envoys here soon, and then use the price paid by the Maxim Empire to compensate these countries that are unwilling to participate in the war.
Kira rushed to the Magic City on the third day after receiving the order. He was already prepared. The Magic City would definitely agree to send troops. The question was what price the Maxim Empire would have to pay.
The only thing he has to do is to minimize the cost.
In Uhura City, Aslan's face became more solemn than ever after listening to Mrs. Sharon's report.
He knew very well that when the Ottomans were completely defeated, the Magic City and the Eastern God Church would come to an end.
Only the Magic City can intervene in the war in the Ottoman Kingdom. The Eastern Gods Church and the Maxim Empire will definitely contain the Merox Empire elsewhere.
Scanning the map of the continent, Aslan finally stopped at the Central Plains and the Principality of Ellendin, which borders the Merlocks Empire. This is a small country with a land area of only 10,000 square kilometers and a total population of less than three million.
The Principality of Ellendine is located in a barren area. The entire country is built on the Aurora Mountains, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The Ellendine people are natural highland warriors, no worse than the Galland Plateau.
The Principality of Ellendin, with a population of less than three million, actually has nearly ten mentor-level experts, which should not be underestimated.
This is a country that is poor and has strong folk customs. It has no value at all and is not worth attacking by neighboring countries, so it can continue to this day.
The only thing that can be appreciated is that this country is very law-abiding and has never plundered the surrounding countries because of poverty.
Diego and Ashley have been heading to the Principality of Ellendine for several months, and they don't know if they can capture this country.
Once the Principality of Allendine becomes part of the Merlocks Empire, with the financial resources of the Merlocks Empire, the main city of Valentine will definitely be built into a fortress, firmly stuck at the throat of the central plain and the northern continent.
Attacking the northern continent from the central plains, the Principality of Ellendine is not stuck on the only passage, but it is at the rear of most passages. As long as the commander is not stupid, he will not allow an enemy fortress to exist behind him.
Who can guarantee that the troops in this fortress will not suddenly attack, attack them from both front and rear, or attack their rear. In order to ensure the safety of the rear, they will definitely attack the fortress, or at least surround the fortress, so that they cannot send out troops at will.
