In the past ten years, Suoda City has indeed changed a lot.
Under Chen Heng's hard work, the current Suoda City has become a city that is not inferior to Kutu City. Although it is not as good as it is in some places, the prosperity is not inferior at all.
And the sharpness and vitality contained in it are even more unprecedented in Kutu, the royal city of the Kingdom of Kutu.
In the city, citizens, freedmen, mercenaries, slaves and even aliens walk among them, walking around freely.
This scene is difficult to see in other places, but it is very common in this place.
Because of the release of the Opening Territory, every year, a large number of mercenaries and second sons of nobles who yearn for territory and meritorious deeds come here to replenish logistics and equipment in this city, so as to fight better.
The reason why Suoda has been able to develop rapidly in just a dozen years is inseparable from these people, all of which are due to their contribution.
And in these years, because of the establishment of a stable defense, the military pressure faced by the Soda Territory has been greatly reduced, and the people have settled down, and the population of reproduction is gradually increasing.
During the stable development, many refugees were also attracted by this place, poured into it, and became a part of this city.
Today's Suoda area has changed a lot since when Chen Heng first came here.
The wandering tribes, the savages from the outside world, and even some alien slaves from the desert, were gradually digested by Chen Heng's efforts over the years and completely integrated into the city in front of him.
It has to be said that this is a very huge achievement.
At this time, the lord of Suoda Territory, Kailin, the guardian knight of the kingdom, was lost in thought in his room.
"Is the news accurate?"
Sitting on his desk, Chen Heng raised his head, looked at the envoy in front of him, and asked seriously.
"It's been confirmed."
In front of him, the envoy nodded solemnly, confirming that there was nothing wrong with his message.
"Rebellion?"
Thinking back on the news brought by the messenger, Chen Heng couldn't help thinking.
After ten years of changes, after a long period of peace, the Kingdom of Kutu finally fell into another turmoil.
In the south, it seems that some lords launched a rebellion against the royal family of the Kutu royal family, and even blatantly attacked several territories directly under the royal family and took them down.
Faced with this sudden rebellion, in the city of Kutu, Oliman was naturally furious and sent his own army to suppress it, but in the end it failed.
The group of rebel lords was not simple, and they seemed to be backed by the power of the Orlis Kingdom. Not only did they repel the army sent by Orliman, but they took this opportunity to go further and annex even more territories.
Many lords were coerced by him and had no choice but to join the rebel camp, launching a rebellion against the royal family together.
It just happened so suddenly.
The sudden rebellion stunned everyone, and the failure of Oriman's attempt to suppress it made many people see the weakening of the royal power.
In this regard, many lords are eager to make a move and are still waiting and watching.
But at this juncture, Oliman fell ill.
Not only was he sick, but he also seemed to be very sick, and often fell into a coma and even vomited blood.
The manifestation of this symptom made people think of King Kutu of the previous generation.
The reason why King Kutu of the previous generation was paralyzed in bed seemed to be because of this disease.
This disease is fine at the beginning, but as time goes by, it will become more and more serious, and in the end it will even affect the spirit, making people unable to take care of themselves.
At this moment, Oliver was suspected of suffering from this disease.
As soon as the news came out, people were immediately panicked.
Unlike the previous King Kutu, Auliman had no heirs.
This childless does not mean that there is no real child, but that there is no legal child.
In fact, it would be a strange thing not to have any children of her own in the way Oliman raises male slaves.
However, these children born to male slaves are considered illegitimate children and do not have the right to inherit the throne of King Kutu.
As for legitimate children, there are none at all.
As the Queen of Kutu, Oliman was never married, so naturally she had no legal heirs.
According to the rules of this era, if there is no legal heir, there will be no legal successor.
This is very fatal.
In the current situation, the southern lord rebelled, and when Oriman fell ill, she didn't even have a crown prince who could help her stabilize the situation.
The situation was momentarily chaotic.
Looking at the news, Chen Heng knew that Oliman was really in danger this time.
In the Kingdom of Kutu, many lords were quite dissatisfied with Auliman because of her behavior in the past, but they were afraid to reveal it because of the situation in the past.
But at this moment, the southern rebellion was together, the royal army was defeated, and Oliman fell ill
The weakness of Oriman and the royal family was immediately exposed.
Under such circumstances, it was hard to say that those lords who were already very dissatisfied with Auliman would not have any ideas.
In this case, it can be said that lighting a match in a pile of dry wood will immediately ignite and ignite the flame.
And under this flame, Oliman's situation will become extremely difficult.
Chen Heng thought silently.
After ten years, the current situation has changed a lot from the past.
Auliman's territory has expanded a lot in the past ten years.
However, these territories are basically seized from the hands of the original lords. They are simply a mess and have not been well managed. They cannot be regarded as power at all, but only superficial territories.
In these years, although Auliman has continuously seized other people's territories into her own hands through various means, the method of managing the territory is still the same as in the past, which is extremely backward.
Faced with an increasingly large and complex territory, it is impossible to manage it well with that outdated management system.
Therefore, for Auliman, these newly acquired territories cannot be regarded as strength, and even to a certain extent, they are still a drag.
The power that really belongs to her is still those territories she used to have.
These territories can be roughly divided into the territories directly under her before she became Queen Kutu, and the territories belonging to the royal family.
The former can probably take out 10,000 people, as for the latter.
According to Chen Heng's estimate, if Auliman really made up his mind to fight with all the strength of the royal family, he might be able to pull 30,000 to 40,000 people from the royal family's territory in a short period of time.
Of course, the level of this training cannot be guaranteed.
Without sufficient training and supply of weapons, it is impossible to have any combat effectiveness.
But if Oliver is given a certain amount of time, she is capable of pulling out an army.
Now let's see if there is this opportunity.
Chapter 3 guarantee is over, good night everyone
