MTL - Heroes of Silver Moon-Chapter 708 : Tear your face!
The imperial envoys arrived at the palace and asked to meet the king, and Simon summoned them immediately.
Looking at the expressionless Simon on the throne, the envoy felt a little uneasy, but he still expressed his intention: "His Royal Highness the Regent believes that you have violated the rights and interests of your lords, and asks you to return the fiefs of the lords and apologize to them!"
Simon's expression remained unchanged, and he replied: "The Silvermoon Kingdom is not a subsidiary state of the Empire, and the Empire has no right to interfere in the internal affairs of the Silvermoon Kingdom. Please go back!"
The envoy frowned, it was the first time he had seen someone who despised the authority of the empire so much.
After thinking about it, the envoy still said, "I remember that you have signed an agreement before, agreeing that the Silver Moon Kingdom should be downgraded to a principality, and the empire has the right to order the principality."
Simon sneered: "I only have the right to order the subordinate Grand Duchy. I reiterate that the Silver Moon Kingdom is the Silver Moon Kingdom, not a vassal of any country!"
The envoy's face also turned cold: "I also want to remind you again that it is the Silver Moon Principality, not the Silver Moon Kingdom! You have already signed the agreement. As a member of the Holy Alliance, you must obey the Empire!"
"Hmph, agreement?" Simon asked someone to bring the canonized agreement, "Is this this one?"
The envoy nodded. The empire's canonization agreement was made in duplicate, one copy was kept by the empire, and the other was kept by the enfeoffed country as a proof of joining the Holy Alliance.
The one that Simon presents now is the one from the sealed country.
But then, the envoy's pupils shrank suddenly, because Simon tore the agreement into pieces bit by bit in front of him.
Simon looked at the messenger blankly: "According to the agreement, the Silvermoon Kingdom must assist the Empire to resist the threat of orcs. At the same time, when the Silvermoon Kingdom faces the threat of orcs, the Empire will also provide assistance. This is the Holy Alliance of Humanity." The meaning of existence.
But half a year ago, the Beastman Royal Court assisted the Red Scorpion Khanate in launching an invasion of the Silver Moon Kingdom, but the empire stood by and watched.
Oh, it's not that I just sit on the sidelines, but specially arranged for two legendary powerhouses to watch the show.
Then can I think that the empire has not fulfilled its obligations, and does this agreement lose its meaning of existence? "
The envoy narrowed his eyes: "King Yinyue, I advise you to think clearly, the Holy Alliance has been established for seven thousand years, and no one has ever dared to do this!
Now put this agreement together for me, and I can pretend that nothing happened! "
Simon got up from the throne, looked down at the envoy, and showed a sneer: "Then congratulations, you have witnessed a historic scene.
In the name of King Silvermoon, I announce that Silvermoon Kingdom will withdraw from the Holy Alliance of Humanity.
No more fulfilling obligations, no need to enjoy benefits that never existed before, and no need to obey the orders of some **** empire, Silvermoon Kingdom will be a completely independent country from now on!
do you understand? "
Seeing the sneering Simon, the envoy felt his scalp go numb. The Silver Moon Kingdom withdrew from the Holy Alliance. This is the rhythm of going to heaven!
He didn't even dare to imagine how much turmoil this would cause in the human nations, let alone how much the empire would react to it.
At least, a mere Silver Moon Kingdom can't afford this price!
"You will regret it!" The envoy said harshly, and fled the palace in a hurry. He was afraid that Simon would kill him if he stayed any longer.
Withdrawing from the Holy Alliance is equivalent to sending a letter of war to the empire. Even if such a crazy thing is done, it is not too much to kill a small envoy to sacrifice the flag!
Watching the envoy leave in a panic, Simon sat back on the throne with an uncertain expression.
This time, it can be regarded as a complete face-off with the empire, but as long as the Silver Moon Kingdom wants to get rid of the control of the empire, this is also an inevitable thing.
The empire has the great enemy of the royal court of the orcs, and there are constant internal conflicts. As long as they can survive the first counterattack, they will be able to win time for the development of the Silver Moon Kingdom.
As for the Silvermoon Kingdom, what is lacking most now is time!
The empire, strong on the outside but strong on the inside, is not as powerful as people think, and the Silver Moon Kingdom, rising from the sun, is not as weak as people think.
Simon sat on the throne, so comforting himself.
…
"How courageous! How courageous!" Holding the news from the messenger, the regent trembled with anger. The arrogance of the Silver Moon King was far beyond his imagination.
Forcibly expel the temples and withdraw from the Holy Alliance of Humanity? Who gave him the guts! Since the establishment of the empire, no country has ever dared to do this!
"How many legions can we mobilize now?" The regent was furious, and turned to look at the military minister who was called by him.
It was his dereliction of duty as the regent that happened during his reign, and it must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise he would be held accountable by the emperor.
The military minister thought about it carefully: "The empire now has forty-two legions, twenty of them are defending the orc king's court on the **** line of defense, and none of them can be transferred. Ten are stationed on the second line of defense, and two of them can be transferred depending on the situation. Twelve are stationed all over the country, and four can be mobilized."
"That's six!" The regent's face was a little gloomy, the six legions only had 300,000 people, far less than he imagined.
If the Silvermoon Kingdom can defeat 300,000 orcs, it can defeat 300,000 imperial troops. This kind of people will definitely not be able to defeat the Silvermoon Kingdom!
The military minister thought about it again: "The lords and affiliated duchies of various places have a large number of idle troops. They can promise the land of the Silver Moon Kingdom and call them to join the war. In addition, they can also let other human countries attack the Silver Moon Kingdom together!"
The face of the regent became better now. The regular army and the lord's private soldiers fought together. This is a fairly traditional way of fighting, and it is not shameful.
"Silvermoon Kingdom must pay for their king's arrogance, and in the name of the empire, call on the lords of the whole country, the affiliated Grand Duchy~www.novelbuddy.com~ and other human countries to join the war.
In this battle, the empire only wants to maintain its own majesty. If it can capture the Silver Moon Kingdom, the Empire does not want an inch of land. All the soil of the Silver Moon Kingdom will be rewarded to the participating lords according to their merits! "
The regent gritted his teeth and gave the order. The lords involved in the war referred to here also included the royal families and lords of the affiliated Grand Duchy and other countries.
After a war, the empire must consume a lot of manpower and material resources, and the result is not much benefit, which is really depressing.
But today's empire really can't spare much power to deal with the Silvermoon Kingdom, so it can only use empty promises to stimulate the lord, the subordinate grand duchy and other countries to join the war.
After all, to the empire, the Silvermoon Kingdom is just a threatening little wolf cub, and the orc royal court is the real lion that can kill the empire!
"Your generosity will surely be praised by the nobles!" The Minister of Military Affairs beamed with joy, and the nobles liked to hear such empty promises, because as long as they were successfully fulfilled, the family would surely acquire a large number of fiefdoms.
Naturally, he, the military minister, is also one of them. As for failure, that is impossible. No one can defy the will of the empire!
Like a shark smelling blood, the regent's order made the lords in the empire and the human kingdoms all excited and active.
There are only two forces on the main continent, humans and orcs, and it is impossible for humans to cooperate with orcs.
The Silvermoon Kingdom's withdrawal from the Holy Alliance not only offended the empire, but also won't be considered a part of it by the human nations.
In other words, the current Silvermoon Kingdom is against the entire world, and no one can save this country.
That being the case, why don't they take a share?
Anyway, if you don't go, it will only be cheaper for others...
