Chapter 396: Marquis Morgan, who knows the general picture
David did not continue to worry about the problem of the orcs' hometown. Maybe he would let the Transformers search again, and forget it if they couldn't find it at all.
As time goes by, the news that David will inherit the position of king from Abelson has spread throughout the Kingdom of Tiland.
Even the lords who have not received the official notification are aware of the news.
Not to mention the nearby Iron Tree Fort.
At this time, Lord Dudley Morgan, the lord of Iron Tree Castle, felt a headache.
The bonfire in the fireplace could not make the lord feel warm. His heart became cold when he heard the news that Duke David Glamorgan was about to ascend the throne as king.
What makes him feel even more painful is that the only confidant he can discuss this matter with is the personal guard knight Ismael Sousa.
The nobles in Iron Tree Castle do not care about this matter. As long as it does not affect their identity, status and current comfortable life, they do not care whether the king is Abelson Tilan or David Glamorgan; nor do they care.
Is this country called the Kingdom of Tilan or the Kingdom of Winter?
In this case, Marquis Dudley Morgan had no way to discuss anything with them.
Looking at Ismael Souza, who was standing respectfully across from him, Dudley Morgan asked his most trusted knight to sit down and asked his servant to pour him a cup of hot tea.
"It is a specialty of Winter City. I was a little uncomfortable when I first drank it, but gradually I began to feel the beauty of this thing." As the stock of tea in Winter City continues to increase, it is inevitable that it will become a trading commodity.
In addition to tea, the goods flowing into Iron Tree Fort include a batch of Garand rifles. Although this new weapon has only been delivered not long ago, and even the soldiers who use it are still being trained, it has already helped Iron Tree Fort on the battlefield.<
/p>
Marquis Dudley Morgan and Ismael Sousa can comfortably warm themselves by the fire in the office instead of freezing on the fortress wall, not because the elves are unwilling to launch attacks in cold weather. p>
In just half a month, the Musketeers have helped Iron Tree Fort repel three attacks from the elves, allowing these evil neighbors to calm down for a while.
Originally, Marquis Morgan thought that he could have a stable winter, and that the Musketeers would also have a relatively stable gap period, so that they could train well.
If everything goes well, maybe next year we can teach those elves a big lesson so that they will never dare to step into Iron Tree Castle's sphere of influence again.
If possible, he would like to fight the elves to move deeper into the Iron Tree Forest, so that Iron Tree Castle can exclusively enjoy the wood resources of the Iron Tree Forest.
Unexpectedly, just when he thought everything was going in a good direction, such nonsense news suddenly came.
"That David Glamorgan is not satisfied with the position of Duke, and actually wants to inherit the throne... Ismail, what do you think of this matter?"
Ismael Souza took a sip of the hot tea. The taste did make him a little uncomfortable, but after a while, the fragrance left in his mouth made him understand why this drink called tea is loved by the lord.
.
Taking another sip, the steaming tea entered his stomach, driving away a lot of the cold air from his body, making Ismail feel a lot more comfortable.
But he really didn't know how to answer the Lord's question.
Inherit the throne!
Is this such a big thing that he, a small bodyguard knight, can talk about?
But it seemed inappropriate not to say anything. Ismael Souza thought for a while before holding back a sentence: "This seems to be a good thing for adults?"
"..."
Marquis Morgan seriously doubted whether his personal knights understood his question?
As the lord of the former important border town of the Kingdom of Tiland, Marquis Dudley Morgan can be regarded as one of the most important lords of the Kingdom of Tiland and has a very important position in the Kingdom of Tiland.
But King Tiland is going to pass the throne to Duke David Glamorgan, will he still be as valued as he was during the Kingdom of Tiran?
In fact, sitting in Iron Tree Castle and strangling the south passage of Winter City, he is likely to become a thorn in the side of Winter City and a thorn in his flesh.
More importantly, do you want to swear allegiance to the new king?
This is what he is most troubled about now.
If he swore allegiance, he would still be the lord of Iron Tree Castle. He did not believe that a king who had just succeeded to the throne would immediately deprive the lord who had just sworn allegiance to him of his territory.
Even if he heard that the Duke of Winter did not engage in enfeoffment in his territory.
In addition, after surrendering allegiance to the new king, what situation will your Iron Tree Fort face?
According to Marquis Morgan's speculation, there will not be a few lords in the entire Kingdom of Tiland who will be loyal to the new king, and there will even be someone who launches an attack on Winter City under the banner of rescuing the royal family of Tiland.
No matter how you look at it, this passing of the throne is weird, and some lords think it makes sense that His Majesty Abelson was kidnapped by the Duke of Winter.
Because Marquis Morgan is close enough to Winter City and has frequent exchanges with each other, he knows that this is not the case, but he does not necessarily have to believe the 'truth'.
As long as he wants, he can also declare war on Winter City under this banner!
The question is, can Iron Tree Castle defeat Winter City?
He didn't even need to ask his generals, Marquis Morgan could come up with a very accurate answer himself: absolutely can't beat him!
Through the information passed back many times by Maloney Mansfield, and the fact that Winter City has not deliberately hidden its true strength, the people here in Iron Tree Castle can be regarded as the group of people who know Winter City best in the entire Brunnia continent.<
/p>
In the words of Maroney Mansfield: The real strength of Winter City is not terrible, but very terrifying!
If Winter City wants to capture Irontree Castle, then one day is enough from the launch of the attack to the end of the battle.
In this day, we also need to hunt down the scattered remnants of soldiers, nobles, important officials, etc. If we simply defeat the defense force of Iron Tree Fort, it may not even take an hour.
The Garand rifles that Winter City sold to Iron Tree Castle are all obsolete weapons. Now Winter City's main weapon is a new type of firearm called the Piccolo Assault Rifle. It is said that the bullets fired by that firearm can easily
beat a heavily armed knight into blood mist.
Even if this fully armored knight wears enchanted armor made of special metal, it will only be a matter of taking a few more shots.
In addition, Winter City also has huge, giant-like Cybertronians. This magical race that comes from unknown sources has strong combat power and can transform into various strange vehicles, and even
Fly in the air at high speed and launch attacks.
What a slap in the face!
Do you expect your archers to deal with the aircraft in Winter City?
As a border lord, Marquis Morgan has sufficient military literacy. Just by thinking about the general situation of these enemies, he knows that there is no way to fight them.
Thinking of this, Marquis Morgan suddenly realized that he had no choice at all.
Unlike the lords in other places, he knows nothing about the strength of Winter City.
Because of his understanding, as long as he has a sound mind, he knows that offering his loyalty to the great Lord David Glamorgan is the most correct choice.
After struggling for several days, Marquis Morgan suddenly figured it out.
At the same time, he discovered that what Ismael Souza said was not unreasonable: if he was loyal to His Majesty Glamorgan, it would indeed be a good thing in some respects.
When the time comes, I will be stationed at the southern thoroughfare of Winter City and defeat the rebels for His Majesty. Will Your Majesty give me some rewards?
If nothing else, if you help yourself form a force similar to the Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment, won't your position as Lord of Iron Tree Fort become more stable?
When the time comes when the elves dare to harass Iron Tree Castle again, these elves will never come back. They will all be captured and sent to Winter City to be dedicated to the great Majesty David Glamorgan...
At this time, the great David Glamorgan did not know that he had captured Iron Tree Castle. He was sitting in the recreation room playing video games with Laura.
The game the two chose was Resident Evil 6, but Lara modded the game and changed the controlled character to herself.
Both of them have extremely fast reaction and coordination abilities. It is not difficult for them to play any game. Therefore, on the screen, the characters controlled by the two people are killing and killing wildly. The poor biochemical monsters are surrounded and suppressed by the two people.
There is almost no resistance.
The two people playing the game can also chat while distracted, without affecting the operations at hand.
"When you inherit the position of king, will the entire northern part of Brunnia continent become lively?"
"Is that right? There will definitely be many lords declaring independence by then; or they will regard me as a traitor who has held the Tilan royal family hostage, and unite some lords to launch the Northern Expedition."
The next thing to do is to clean up these rebellious lords one after another and take over all the territory of the Kingdom of Tilan.
"Then what? Launch a revenge war against the Holy Kingdom of Gaunt?"
"There is a high probability that it will be like this." If he had a choice, David would like to clean up the orcs first, but with the Soduruma Empire in between, it would be very troublesome.
"It feels like as soon as you ascend the throne, wars will continue to break out...it doesn't sound like a good king."
"..."
"With such frequent wars, aren't you worried that some people in Winter City will have bad thoughts about you?"
Having said so much, this sentence is actually the key.
David has certainly thought of this, but as Winter City becomes more and more powerful, more and more people are joining David's ship.
Some things are bound to happen, and progress will not be stopped just because of what some people think.
Moreover, David believes that those who truly regard him as friends know some of the situations on the Brennian continent and will understand his choice.
Even Clark, the most saintly Superman, would not stand against David.
"Yes, if nothing else happens, you will have become his brother-in-law by then!"
