Chapter 320 Count Chukiwyke Narration
"His Highness Grand Duke(s), although I am Great Sword Master of Forund Duchy, but I do not know the details of this battle, but only assisted our Little Prince in the late siege of Federica King City. Handra Dukedom's Count Chukiwyke participated in He should be the person who knows the war best in the planning of the whole war. We still invite him to introduce it to everyone. "Rimad Great Sword Master said.
Grand Duke Fisablen nodded and turned to Count Chukiwyke: "Can Lord Count tell the process of this battle? As a soldier, I'm really curious about the unexpected results of this battle. At first I heard that Second Highness sent a surprise attack and captured Federica King City At that time, I always thought that the victory and defeat had been set. I did not expect that the whole result of the war in two years would have changed so much. It is really surprising. As a witness of this war, I believe that Lord Count must have many impressions ... ... "
Count Chukiwyke did not expect that he suddenly became the focus of attention at the banquet. Seeing everyone's eyes focused on him, he cursed Rimad Great Sword Master in his heart. He had to get up again and glanced at Lorist, but he saw Lorist with curiosity. Finally, let him breathe a sigh of relief: "His Highness Grand Duke(s), although I was involved in the whole process of this war, in fact our Central Four Dukedom was forced to helplessly and had to set up a coalition against Second Highness. Originally, we were just out of self-protection. But then the development of the war was unexpected. To be honest, the victory of this war was not what we wanted, but the result was that we had to win it ... "
No one expected that Count Chukiwyke would say such a thing, and there was an uproar in the hall. It's nothing more than curiosity, but Fulunduo Dukedom's Forund's little prince made a "hum". It seems very dissatisfied that Count Chukiwyke even said such self-destructive words. The Rimad Great Sword Master and Golden Knight around him were surprised. Instead, the Shabaj Duchy's Count Drake sat there with a sad expression.
Count Chukiwyke took a deep breath: "As we all know, Central Four Dukedom has always been the mainstay of the former Krissen's Empire. There are 29 provinces in Empire, and the tax revenue of the eight central provinces accounts for 45 percent of the former Empire. In the Empire era, Regardless of the external war or internal rebellion, the eight provinces in the central region have contributed under the leadership of four Grand Duke(s). After being unwilling, they have made outstanding contributions to Empire. Even after more than 170 years with Trade Union During the war, the sacrifices made by the eight central provinces were also the greatest.
During the Empire civil war, the three kings fought for the position. The four Grand Duke(s)s in the middle had to support the alliance to protect themselves in the best place of Empire. In this case, the three princes also provided a huge amount of valuable assistance because He represents the orthodoxy of Krissen Imperial Family. But then Madras Grand Duke rebellion made the situation irreparable, Empire split into three kingdoms and seven Dukedom.
Although the four Grand Duke(s)s in the central part established Dukedom, they immediately faced the attack of the Great Prince. We resisted the Great Prince for two years, exhausted and suffered heavy losses, but we finally won and gained precious peace. This only took a few years of rest and recuperation. Just regained some vitality, Second Highness came back to the city, and put up intolerable conditions for the four Grand Duke(s)s, forcing our Central Four Dukedom to have to gather the coalition again to protect themselves ... "
"Oh, what kind of conditions did Second Highness impose on your central four Dukedom?" Grand Duke Fisablen curiously touching the beard of his chin.
"Remove the seal and let the four Grand Duke(s) take the family armed forces to attack Madras Dukedom ..." Count Chukiwyke replied.
Grand Duke Fisablen hesitated, he broke a few beards in his hand, and he suddenly broke off: "Second Highness is crazy, how can you put forward such a condition, isn't this forcing friends into enemies?"
Count Chukiwyke spread his hands and smiled bitterly: "I do n’t know why Second Highness proposed such a condition to the four Grand Duke(s)s. Everyone knows that this is simply not possible. The eight provinces of central China are the four Grand Duke(s) families Territory And the sphere of influence already is as long as two hundred or three hundred years old and deeply rooted, just as Fakeer Grand Duke(s) claims, their bloodline has been deeply integrated with this land, and no one can let them separate.
When Second Highness emerged from Andinak Kingdom a few years ago, our four Dukedom's Aristocrat(s) was very happy for this, and even pinned on him the hope of reviving Krissen's Empire. For us, being Krissen's Empire Aristocrat(s) is a pride. As we said in Grand Duke(s), it does n’t matter if you are the master of Dukedom. As long as Empire needs it, he can cancel the title of Dukedom at any time and return to Empire.
But we did not expect that Second Highness came. He defeated the great prince and led 200,000 troops to the eight provinces of central China. He proposed such conditions to four Grand Duke(s)s. Andinak Royal Family is under the direct jurisdiction of Territory, and requires four Grand Duke(s)s to play for Empire. We sent a private armed forces to lead us Aristocrat(s) to attack Madras Dukedom, so that we can determine the titles of Aristocrat(s) and Territory according to our achievements ...
Everyone understands this now. It turns out that the Aristocrat(s) of us are all Empire rebellions in the eyes of Second Highness. We were sad, very angry, and sent a representative to protest to Second Highness. But no one saw Second Highness, only to hear that he was very ill. At that time, we all thought that he had avoided us deliberately. When he returned, he was so angry that he unanimously demanded that the four Grand Duke(s)s form a coalition to confront and increase assistance to the original Redlis Kingdom Aristocrat(s), using them to contain the Second Highness army.
No one wants to be a rebellious Empire, but the situation has to force our four Dukedom Aristocrat(s) to become the enemy of Second Highness. But our four Dukedom coalition forces only confronted Second Highness's army and did not want to provoke or initiate an offensive. However, I did not expect that Second Highness was really seriously ill. The King of Andeanak without him was defeated in the battle with the former Redlis Kingdom Aristocrat(s). He was also lured into a trap and the water washed away 70,000 people. The situation A moment's change, it is said that Second Highness hurried to the front with illness before stabilizing the whole situation.
To be honest, our four Dukedoms gathered 200,000 coalition forces to confront the Second Highness army. Although there was no major war, the price that can be paid is also very huge. The peace that lasted for five or six years has indeed restored some vitality of the Central Four Dukedom. However, the 200,000-strong army of Second Highness has made the four Dukedom face the greatest crisis and pressure, although Second Highness has deployed tens of thousands of troops to raid the former Redlis Kingdom Aristocrat(s). Coalition forces, more than 100,000 troops stationed at the borders of Dukedom and Handra Dukedom in Faker, are a sharp axe hanging from the heads of the eight central provinces, and no one knows when it will fall.
In the pre-Empire period, the population of the eight provinces in the central part of the country was close to 3.5 million. It was the essence of Empire. No one can match it except the Imperial Capital Antalya Great Plain. After the Empire civil war, the population dropped to 2.8 million, followed by the invasion of Central Prince Dukedom by the savage army led by the Great Prince, Redlis Kingdom, war, natural disasters, famine, plague, in just two years, the eight central provinces The remaining population is less than two million people, and almost half has disappeared ...
When it comes to this, Count Chukiwyke's expression was a little excited: "What the Central Four Dukedom wants is not war, we want peace. But Second Highness does not bring peace. He forced us to obey his orders and ordered us to go to him. Chariot, disobedience is rebellion. The four Dukedoms in the middle can only gather the coalition again to guard against the Second Highness army. But for a year of confrontation, we were forced to consume countless grain reserves, and the strong men were on the front and the rear The land has been abandoned and cultivated by a large number of people, and it looks like the famine in the eight provinces in central and central China will be famine again this year and next ... "
"Sorry, Count Chukiwyke Lord(s), I can ask, the four Dukedoms in your central area are so difficult to bear the food and grass consumption of 200,000 people. Then where is the food and grass consumed by the 200,000 army deployed by Second Highness in Redlis Kingdom, do you know?" Lorist Suddenly interrupted his words.
"Oh, as far as I know, Second Highness's army in Redlis Kingdom has a total of nearly 270,000 people, of which 150,000 are the first and third royal guards Legion transferred from Andinak Kingdom. Another 120,000 are The original Redlis Kingdom army was mainly deployed in Cambona Province and surrendered to him after Second Highness's surprise attack on Federica King City. Second Highness originally only transferred the Royal First Guard Legion, and organized these surrendering troops to launch an attack on those Redlis Kingdom's Aristocrat(s), only the effect Not so good. These surrendered troops have repeatedly defeated, which has delayed the war.
Second Highness finally lost faith in these surrendered troops after being swept away by the 70,000 troops by the flood. It transferred from Andinak Kingdom to the Royal Guards Third Legion, and was fully responsible for the raid and removal of the rebellious Aristocrat(s) allies of Redlis Kingdom. The Royal First Legion, together with the remaining surrender troops, maintained the oppression of the central four Dukedom, and our four Dukedom coalition forces faced a total of 130,000 horses.
Because of Second Highness ’s surprise attack on Federica King City, he has completely captured all the armaments and food supplies prepared and stored by the Great Prince in King City. We estimate that it can consume more than 200,000 troops in Second Highness for eight months. At that time, everyone thought that the war could end soon, and Second Highness would win. But everyone did not expect that the rebellious former Redlis Kingdom Aristocrat(s) would persist for so long and continue to give Second Highness a blow. Even though Second Highness lost nearly 100,000 people, Second Highness couldn't stand so much grain and grass consumption after winter passed.
At this time, Second Highness used three methods to cope with the consumption of food and grass materials and improve the morale of the frontline troops. The first method was to issue a levy order, which is to collect their reserve food from all Redlis Kingdom nationals. Then take part of the porridge to drink for the citizens who have been collected grain, and make every effort to ensure the food supply of the frontline troops. After this order was issued, Second Highness stood on the opposite side of all the civilians of the original Redlis Kingdom, and the rebellions abound ...
The second method is to confiscate the original Redlis Kingdom Aristocrat(s) properties for military use. All confiscated properties are used to reward those who have won soldier(s). Although this method restored the morale and combat effectiveness of the frontline troops, it forced all the neutral Aristocrat(s) to the insurgent Aristocrat(s) side. Those insurgents Aristocrat(s) who had been forced to run out by the Royal Third Guard Legion had reinforcements and A large number of fresh troops were added, and they began to interact with the Royal Guard third Legion, and even won several small battles.
The last way is to transport food from Andinak Kingdom for emergency. It is just a long way, coupled with the loss of manpower and being robbed by the rebel Aristocrat(s), less than 20-30 pounds of grain were shipped to the front line with a hundred pounds of grain. As a result, the frontline troops could only be half hungry and half full, and the food in the camp could only be stored for three days.
Fourker Grand Duke(s), the joint coach of the Central Four Dukedom, was very keen to discover this fighter aircraft. After Forde Trade Union unexpectedly dispatched troops and captured Cambona Province and cut off the food lane transported by Andinak Kingdom to Redlis Kingdom, Faker Grand Duke(s) ordered us to collect A group of cattle and sheep slaughtered and threw them into a large pot, so the army of more than 100,000 Second Highness who confronted us broke down because of hunger. "
"I still have a question, why did the former Redlis Kingdom's Aristocrat(s), those Anderwoff Province's Territory Aristocrat(s), fight so hard against Second Highness? As far as I know, Anderwoff Province's Territory Aristocrat(s) and the Great Prince have always been at odds with each other. Let's fight against the offense of the Great Prince to their interests. As the Second Highness of Redlis Kingdom, he should know this. If he wants to calm down Redlis Kingdom, he needs the help of Aristocrat(s). What makes these Territory Aristocrat(s) and Second Highness enemies who live and die together. Do you know the reason? Count Chukiwyke ... "Lorist looked at Count Chukiwyke and asked.
"Uh ..." Count Chukiwyke thought for a while and replied: "I should be aware of some reasons. I used to meet a few Anderwoff Province Aristocrat(s). According to them, Second Highness gave them the conditions for their surrender. They were sealed off, and they demanded that they pay the atonement, as they used to pay for the rebellion they followed the Great Prince, so they talked about collapse. Originally these Territory Aristocrat(s) only wanted to deal with Second Highness in an uncooperative way. Who knew that the army of Second Highness directly raised With the butcher knife, several Aristocrat(s) families were destroyed, and everyone had to raise their flags to resist ... "
Lorist smiled bitterly, this is purely dazed. Second Highness really thought that if he had hundreds of thousands of troops in his hand, he would be able to survive. already lost those Territory Aristocrat(s) losses at Anderwoff Province. I didn't expect to turn around and do the same tricks to the four Dukedoms in the central area. As a result, my friends were turned into enemies. This is really my own death.
Transferring and reducing the seal is indeed the best way to weaken the strength of those Territory Aristocrat(s), but it depends on the situation, and this strategy can only be implemented if you absolutely control the situation. Second Highness thought that the 200,000 army had control of the situation at hand and decided to implement this policy. It was clear that it was too anxious, it was simply self-destruction.
"Yes, Count Chukiwyke. Did you find the whereabouts of Second Highness after conquering Federica King City?" Count Kenmays asked.
"No, no one has found the whereabouts of Second Highness. He disappeared like a prince without a trace. In fact, our four Dukedoms in the middle of China wanted to stand idly by after disintegrating the more than 100,000 troops on the border. What conflict with Second Highness. But the next thing angered everyone in the four Dukedom, Second Highness unexpectedly used our coalition and his army to confront each other at the border and let Merlein Grand Duke(s)'s army into the territory of Shabaj Duchy from behind, burned There is no evil in killing and looting. Due to lack of defense against the fall of a large number of Territory, nearly 10,000 old and weak women and children were killed.
At this time, Trade Union sent a representative. The last four Grand Duke(s)s who were enraged decided to send troops to Federica King City. Each Dukedom sent 20,000 troops. The remaining lanes went to Shabaj Duchy to deal with the invading Merlein Grand Duke(s) army. On July 21 last year, our army surrounded Federica King City and demanded that Second Highness surrender from the city. We guarantee his life. But this proposal was rejected by a Gold female Knight(s) who was defending the city ... "
"Gold female Knight(s)?" Lorist sat upright.
"Well, Second Highness's men have five tigers and six Gold Battle Qi ranks. They are the most trusted subordinates of Second Highness. One flower is the Gold female Knight(s). Her name is called, called, promised ... …… Grisia …… ”The face of Count Chukiwyke suddenly changed, and he looked secretly at Lorist, his body trembling a little.
