boom!
The heavy wooden door closed behind him, and Maester Yeruger stood in the corridor and let out a long sigh.
Obviously, in his capacity, he is not enough to participate in the meeting of the real big men of the Glorious Empire.
However, thinking of the three paladins who suddenly appeared, Maester Yeruge didn't feel much excitement.
Duke St. Grian's footsteps were flimsy and his face was pale. It looked like he was seriously injured.
Prince Lehi was indifferent, obviously still resenting being framed and expelled by Emperor Reinhardt.
As for the Mr. Gu who occupies the body of the Duke of St. Hilde... that is simply a demon who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.
It is really hard to say whether the appearance of these three paladins in Storm Fortress will bring hope of victory to the empire, or a greater crisis.
Moreover, the appearance of these three people completely ruined the plan of Bachelor Yaruge.
To make matters worse, the dominance of Storm Fortress has completely changed hands.
The three paladins came together, apparently an agreement had been reached.
Under such circumstances, not to mention the Duke of the South, even Emperor Reinhardt could not violate the will of the three paladins.
Bachelor Yaruger is sure to control Emperor Reinhardt, but facing the three paladins...
Maester Yaruger only felt a pain in his head.
At this moment, an attendant walked over quickly, as if he had some news to report.
But the guards would definitely not let him in at this time.
"Sorry, His Majesty is discussing important matters, you can't go in now."
The attendant nodded and could only stand aside and wait quietly.
Bachelor Yaruger asked curiously:
"What happened?"
The attendant glanced at Bachelor Yaruger and seemed to recognize the confidant of the Duke of the Southern Region. Thinking that his news was not a secret, he told the truth:
"My lord, Her Majesty the Queen and Earl Angelet, the Guardian of the North, are about to arrive at Storm Fortress, so I came here to report to Your Majesty."
"Her Royal Highness...Earl Angelet..." Bachelor Yaruge chanted these two names, suddenly his heart moved, and he said to the guard at the door, "If the Duke of the South asks, just say that I am going to meet Her Royal Highness and Earl Angelet gone."
"good."
…
But inside the wooden door, the atmosphere is particularly dignified.
Emperor Reinhard sat on the main seat, trying to put on the posture of an imperial emperor.
But it's a pity that his slovenly attire, stubbled beard, and slightly drunken eyes all make him lack majesty at all.
What's more, in the eyes of the other four, the emperor himself is a joke.
"Ahem..." Emperor Reinhard cleared his throat, glanced at the three paladins, and finally chose the one he was most likely to win over, "Duke St. Gerian, seeing that you have safely withdrawn from me What a joy!
The battle of the Tianduan Mountains was not because I was unwilling to stick to it, but because that damned Garcia St. Hilde ran away and caused the situation to collapse. Under such circumstances, I can only choose to retreat temporarily to preserve my strength... "
"Your Majesty, don't mention the past." Duke St. Gerian interrupted lightly, "I just want to expel the orcs and regain the Western Region. For this, I can do whatever it takes!"
In the end, the Duke of St. Grian almost gritted his teeth, revealing his unshakable determination.
Emperor Reinhard immediately stated:
"I have the same determination as you, Duke St. Grian..."
"Then you just said you wanted to withdraw your troops?" Duke St. Grian interrupted again mercilessly.
Emperor Reinhard suppressed the anger in his heart, squeezed out a smile, and explained:
"It's not what you think. The withdrawal is just an illusion, a lie deliberately spread to the refugees. The purpose is to let them voluntarily evacuate the Storm Fortress to ease the congestion and security problems in the city..."
"That won't work either." Duke St. Grian interrupted again without giving any face, "Those refugees can't leave either!"
After being offended several times, Emperor Reinhard's face could no longer remain calm, his fists clenched tightly, as if he was about to explode at any moment.
But fortunately, the remaining sanity stopped him.
The Duke of St. Landers could no longer remain silent at this time, and said:
"Duke St. Gerian, I also feel sorry for the fall of the Western Territory, but you still have to keep calm.
There are already too many troops and refugees gathered in Storm Fortress. Even if you don’t consider the security issue, you should also consider the issue of food supplies. What’s more, once the orcs attack, these refugees will only become our burden... "
"Duke St. Landers, how many people are there in the fort now?" Mr. Ji asked suddenly.
The Duke of St. Landers was stunned for a moment, but he still answered truthfully:
"There are still about 450,000 troops left in the Three Realms. As for the refugees, there is no accurate statistics. However, I estimate that there are more than the number of troops."
Mr. Ji nodded in satisfaction and said:
"That's almost enough."
"What is enough?" Duke St. Landers was at a loss.
Mr. Ji smiled slightly, turned his head to look at Emperor Reinhardt, bowed and said:
"Your Majesty, I came here this time to offer you a plan to defeat the enemy."
"Oh?" Emperor Reinhard frowned. Although he didn't believe that Mr. Ji would be so kind to help him, he still said patiently, "Tell me."
"It's actually very simple." Mr. Zhe smiled confidently, "The Third Orc Empire was established entirely because of Saruman, an emperor with extraordinary military power and great talent. Therefore, as long as he is killed, the Orc Empire will fall apart."
Hearing this, Emperor Reinhard couldn't help asking: "Saruman is a Skull Crusher in the Sanctuary, and he is guarded by an army of orcs. How can he kill him?"
Before Mr. Xi could answer, the Duke of St. Landers realized something, his expression changed drastically, and he blurted out:
"The eyes of judgment?"
"That's right." Mr. Ji smiled slightly at Duke St. Landers, "I can cast this forbidden spell in Storm Fortress to kill Emperor Saruman!"
"So those refugees are the sacrifices of the forbidden curse?" The Duke of St. Landers' face became extremely solemn.
"It's not just refugees." Mr. Ji grinned, revealing a mouthful of ferocious white teeth, "there are also imperial troops in the fortress."
"You need to sacrifice so many people for your forbidden curse?" Emperor Reinhard didn't refuse immediately, but got entangled in the number of sacrifices.
"Yes. The Skull Crusher in the Sanctuary is too powerful. I need more sacrifices. At least one million people. The imperial army in Storm Fortress plus refugees is just enough." Mr. Ji said lightly, as if in his In the mouth, a million people are no different from a million ants.
"No!" The Duke of St. Landers immediately objected.
He didn't want his hundreds of thousands of southern troops to become sacrifices, but when he turned to look at Emperor Reinhard, he found that the emperor was actually silent.
Obviously, Emperor Reinhardt has already moved a little bit!
"Your Majesty, please think twice!" The Duke of St. Landers urgently persuaded, "This will destroy the elite army of the Empire! If the Orc Empire does not collapse after Saruman's death, then the Glorious Empire will be completely over! "
"No." Mr. Ji immediately retorted, "There are many conflicts among the tribes of the orcs, but they were forcibly held together by Saruman. If he dies, it will only be a matter of time before the orc army falls apart.
And even if the orc empire doesn't collapse, if it loses the most powerful sanctuary combat power, its momentum will definitely be greatly reduced.
The Glorious Empire also had a chance to regroup.
I believe that under His Majesty's wise leadership, the final victory will be achieved! "
"Your Majesty! You must not listen to this devil's bewitchment, who knows if he has other thoughts hidden..."
"Shut up!" Emperor Reinhard roared, waved his hands, and said, "Get out! I have to think about it!"
