"We can collapse the Water Capital, and even let Ms. Storm fall. So, how much are you willing to pay for recovering the capital?"
When someone spoke in front of Dasos like this, he wanted to laugh at first, thinking the joke was really funny, but then looking at this special messenger from the north, he couldn't say the joke, but fell into silence.
Grena, the queen of the northern kingdom of Sluwell, suddenly came to visit the Oran Empire in the midst of war and turmoil. Think about the implications of this.
She, was that person's chosen messenger and agent, or more accurately, the heir.
Times are always advancing unknowingly. More and more people have noticed the changes in the frozen soil in the north. The miracles that happened after the man returned to his homeland have made all bystanders see the future. I am afraid that there is nothing that can stop the new Lan Alliance from integrating the entire Northland.
After all, there is already too much magic in that piece of land that was once deserted.
The origin of the increasingly valued magic mechanics, a sample of multi-racial mixed life patterns, the holy land on the side of the law, the union of elves, orcs, undead, dungeon forces and human forces, their latest social system makes Multi-racial integration is possible, and the accumulation of sand and stone can become a tower, not to mention the accumulation of strong fighting races. People of insight have seen that within two or three years, a superpower will gradually rise in the north.
Unlike the countries in the messy world of Ashe, due to the partial safety of the Northern Territory, or it should be said that she has passed her due doom, when other countries and races are busy dealing with their own troubles, she can live in a more stable place. It grows and grows in the surrounding environment, and even has room to support other countries.
In this emerging force, the two women of the Lan family are destined to become the core. One of them is Renee Qin Lan, who Dasos has already dealt with, and the other is the current Ge Lina. Of course, He didn't know that he had seen another appearance of the girl in front of him.
For Ashe, who is in power, the personal charm and ability of the king are extremely important. It is absolutely not empty words to faint the king and destroy the country, and the Mingjun to rejuvenate the country. As for the allies in the north, Dasos has evaluated the two princesses of the Lan family. For Renee His evaluation has been slightly higher than that of the past. Although there are many achievements and obvious improvements in strength, but judging from the situation of escaping government affairs in the intelligence, it has probably evolved from a vase dedicated to propaganda to a brave general, but for this rare The little queen of the northern kingdom who appeared in front of the world had only one comment - unfathomable.
Being hunted down at a young age, escaping into the underworld, growing to such a degree in the chaotic underworld, and finally returning home to seize power, leaving this deed to a great bard and playwright, perhaps a classic The Princess' Revenge will be born as a result.
Ordinary people may only regard it as a story, but the powerful emperor has seen many other things from it.
"Underworld, didn't that man also return from the underground world? Could it be that she gained the recognition of that man in the underground world, and finally was able to return to the country."
Sometimes, the distance between the "truth" and reality deduced from multiple sources of intelligence depends on the imagination of the person. In the eyes of conspirators and those in power, there is no accident in this world, everything is a plan and a plan.
But in Dasos' view, in fact, the intelligence spies have already given the answer from the sidelines. This little girl who seems to be only about ten years old in front of her looks immature, but this little girl has far beyond her age and appearance. He has a strong ability in government affairs, industry, economy, and balance of power. He has only been in power for only one year, and the country has not only been firmly in his hands, but also has the potential to rejuvenate.
Some things can be explained by talent, but things like government affairs and industry must be accumulated with enough practical experience and theoretical system. If you want to reach such a level at a young age, it is impossible without the accumulated teaching of veterans, and a small The Queen's name for the man explained everything.
"Father."
Yes, Grena is that man's righteous daughter, and that man often comes to talk to her privately. Looking back now, he should have taught and directed her.
But now, her identity has become more and more not limited to one country. In the Lan Alliance, which is being formed, she is actively promoting exchanges and integration in all aspects. Every major event is decided by her personally. As the emerging force of the Lan Alliance becomes more and more mature, she also has more and more authority and status as the leader of the first sister of the Lan Alliance.
Even when the man was not in the Northland, the people around him had already recognized him as an agent, which was not easy.
The people of the Lan people in the northern land also recognized this little queen who suddenly returned, and even juxtaposed her with the highly famous "Knight Princess" and called her "Gemini Princess". Obviously, it was like a legendary epic. the twin princes.
In the eyes of the Lan people today, Renee, who is valiant and skilled in fighting, is Prince Cavens who was also impulsive and fierce in the past, and this wise and capable Queen Grena, although not as always as the "Child of Light" in those days. It is wearing a very kind smile, but no matter in terms of ability or inheritance, he is the heir of Prince Roland back then.
"With them here, the day of our Lan clan's revival is just around the corner."
The period of more than 300 years belonged to the Gemini era. Maybe they and Lan Kingdom finally came to an end together, but no country or powerhouse could ignore the last flash. Their last roar made the whole world tremble. That country's victory over the Seventeen Kingdoms is nothing short of a fantasy, not to mention the two undead natural disasters and a demon catastrophe that followed. Even if they are finally destroyed, the world will still remember their names and traces of their journey. Where the Dilan people live, there will be their statues, which have become totem-like spiritual guardians.
But now, the inheritance and bloodline have not been cut off. The prince of the motherland hides in the world and acts in the shadows, and the heir he chooses raised that banner, and all the Lan people naturally chose to return to this banner. One day, countless people of the Lan tribe return to their homeland after traveling thousands of miles and dangers. The newly born Lan Kingdom and the Lan Alliance are getting stronger every day.
In fact, the truth is always more bizarre than the story. Fate is making a joke here. In fact, not only is Renee the heir of Roland, but even Renee is the descendant of Cavens. It seems that some things are destined to be different, some things But went back to the starting point.
At this time, after uttering amazing words, Grena's undisguised demon pupils were emitting this dangerous light, and Dasos's original joke was swallowed.
Facing the expressionless little girl who was only ten years old in front of him, Dasos didn't dare to be slighted in the slightest. In his opinion, Grena will become his equivalent sooner or later. Such a person has nothing to spare. Qianli came to joke with herself, and as long as she said it, no matter how outrageous the proposal was, it was necessary to seriously consider it.
After a long thought, Dasos gave his answer.
"I was going to jokingly say that as long as you do it, you can give you half an Oran. When you think about your adopted father who seems to be able to do everything, I don't think it needs to be said."
After a pause, the emperor made his promise.
"Forever allies and other nonsense, we will not believe in the so-called 'forever', but as long as we do this, the relationship between our two countries will naturally become the strongest ally. And as the emperor of Oran, I promise , if you can do this kind of miracle, we will hand over the Principality of Endor and the Kingdom of Safa to you. At the same time, we will open all markets to you, so that you can obtain some materials in Oran that can be exchanged for money for a period of 30 years ."
The Principality of Endor and the Kingdom of Safa are both vassals of the Oran Empire in the north. The former is a country of mountains, but it is also a country of mining areas. However, in recent years, the production of mines has tended to decrease, while the Kingdom of Safa is a multi-ethnic mixed population. country, his main ethnic groups are mountain dwarves and gnomes.
From this, we can see what Dasos has done for the North Underground. The two countries are not large in area, neither have a large population, nor have the potential for war, but they have the most missing things in the Lan Alliance and the North. - A large number of skilled miners and blacksmiths, technicians.
The North does not lack minerals, but it lacks miners. The North does not lack advanced technology and researchers, but it lacks excellent blacksmiths and industrial foundations. If the Lan Alliance acquires these two countries, it will be possible to increase its strength in a short period of time. expected.
Fully opening the market seems simple, but in this era, it is a near-impossible benefit. The transportation in the Ashe area is inconvenient, and the motorcade and caravan have to risk their lives. Of course, but in the conflict of interests at the national level, the huge benefits of cross-border trade are actually less than the trouble of not being able to buy urgently needed goods at a critical moment.
During the war, one of your secret weapons needs blue sapphire as a material, but you can't get it, or your food supply is insufficient, but the surrounding countries don't sell it to you, this kind of thing should not be too much.
Oran is a quasi-superpower with an extremely wide territory. Luxury goods, military supplies, rare minerals, magic weapons, and high-quality grains, these strategic materials that seem extremely important in a small country, are actually nothing to itself, but if He has completely opened the market to a certain country, but it is a stronger interest relationship than anything else. Although the Oran Empire will definitely lose some trade interests, the Lan Alliance and the Oran Empire will become the most solid allies.
This is the emperor’s mind. The things given are not the most important to Dasos, but they are what the North needs most, and they can get more benefits. As long as the capital is successfully recaptured, Dasos’s own prestige It will surpass the founding monarch, the people's will, and the entire national strength will reach its peak with the birth of the floating fleet.
As for the exchange of vassals? It is very common for a vassal state to change to a suzerain state, and there is not much interest in forcibly squeezing the vassal state. As long as it is not widely publicized, there is nothing at all.
"Plus Milos Federation."
It is also a vassal of the Oran Empire. There is nothing special about it, but it allows the three countries to connect with the mountains. As long as they pass through the two countries, the most difficult part of the Lan Alliance will be able to border the two countries. It seems that Ge Lina does not have either. Do less homework.
"Lan League plans to expand south?"
"It won't go further south. The area we can protect is limited. Blind expansion is just making trouble for ourselves."
"make a deal."
When the two hands were held together, a behind-the-scenes deal involving a god, a capital, and three kingdoms had already been finalized.
