Fantasy Simulator Chapter 64: Methods
"Then what?"
Looking at Chen Heng, Oliman's face was solemn, and then he spoke.
The importance of North-South trade, she had already realized before.
But before that, she was more aware of the huge profits hidden in it.
After Chen Heng’s explanation, she was surprised how important this trade is to the troubled northern lords.
"Then, the principality will come forward to reward and support the lords who made meritorious service in the war."
Chen Heng continued: "In the past, most of the inland territories ignored the wars that the northern lords started in the north, thinking that it was the northern lords' own business."
"But in fact, if the northern lords did not resist the pressure from the desert in the north, the entire kingdom would have to face tremendous pressure, and the nobles would not have lived so easily."
Princess Oriman nodded silently.
Indeed, in the past, no one except a few people cared about the condition of the northern lords.
Everyone believes that they should resist those alien races that originated in the desert. This is what they should do.
In this respect, it is because it has nothing to do with oneself. On the other hand, it is also because according to the practice of this era, the things in one's own territory belong to oneself.
The lord of has all control over his own territory, so he naturally has the obligation to surround him.
"Under normal circumstances, this is naturally the case."
Chen Heng continued: "But the situation in the north is unusual."
"Resist the pressure from the desert, which is not easy for the northern lord."
"If it develops according to the current situation, the situation will be very bad."
"What will happen?"
Oriman asked subconsciously.
"War is something that requires investment. If the northern lords cannot benefit from the war and cannot obtain aid from the kingdom, then there are only two results."
Chen Heng spoke softly, saying: "Following the constant losses, these northern lords will either collapse because of this, and the kingdom will lose the northern barrier, or let these northern lords find other ways out."
War is a cost.
Food, weapons, equipment, and even manpower input are all costs.
When the gains in a war cannot offset the losses, then losses are inevitable.
And when the lords lose money because of this, they have only two choices left.
Either choose to die amidst a steady stream of losses, or find another way out.
"At that time, most of the northern lords will look for other ways."
Chen Heng spoke softly, and said with a sigh: "And what is the way out they will choose?"
"What will it be?"
Aoliman subconsciously followed Chen Heng's thoughts and entered into thinking.
When the northern lords cannot afford the continuous losses and choose to find another way out, what will their choice be?
The answer is actually quite obvious.
"They will abandon their territory and take their troops south."
Chen Heng said softly: "Since the war with the foreign race can't make up for his loss, then just grab it from other places."
"At that time, the lords from the north will inevitably go south and go to war with the other lords of Kutu."
"At that time, it will be a storm."
Oriman shivered uncontrollably.
A group of northern lords who could not bear the loss and were forced to go south, this would be a devastating result for the Kutu nation.
Especially when they find that the army of the southern lords and the Kutu country is far easier to deal with than the aliens in the desert.
Although the northern lords are poor, they are definitely the strongest group because they face war all the time.
In addition, by that time, they had no other way out, and the power that burst out was absolutely amazing.
When the time comes, no matter what the result is, the entire Kutu country will inevitably face a huge disturbance.
and losing the resistance of the northern lords, the alien races in the desert will definitely take the opportunity to set off, putting the Kutu kingdom under tremendous pressure.
Just thinking of the consequences made Oliman tremble.
"So, even in order to avoid this result, the kingdom must support the northern lords and let them support as long as possible."
Looking at Oliman, Chen Heng spoke softly and said.
"But, is it directly supported by the royal family?"
Oliman continued to speak, and asked seriously.
"Of course it won't work."
Chen Heng shook his head and said: "Supporting the lord in the north must be very costly."
"These costs, if fully supported by the royal family, will surely cause the royal family to weaken step by step and create opportunities for those lords."
"So, the lords everywhere must also contribute."
"But how can this be done?"
Oliman asked, with a very serious attitude, with some expectation on his face.
Unknowingly, she has devoted herself to this conversation wholeheartedly.
Chen Heng's conversation seems to have opened up her vision so far, leading her to look at the problem from a perspective that she has never had before.
This feeling was something she had never had before.
Therefore, before she knew it, her mood changed from the original casual ~IndoMTL.com~ to the solemnity behind, and then to the expectation and seriousness of today.
"Under normal circumstances, it is naturally impossible."
Chen Heng continued to speak, looked at Oliman and said, "However, there is one exception."
"That is, the opportunity to obtain territory."
"You can tell them, let them lead the army to the North, as long as they have the ability to take root in the desert and successfully defend that area, they will recognize them as the lord of that area and give them the opportunity to become true nobles. ."
"It can be like this..."
Oliman was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly.
Yes.
The nobles cherish the strength of their family very much. Under normal circumstances, they are never willing to waste any wealth of their family to support the northern lords.
However, Territory is an exception.
In this world, no matter who you are, you are extremely eager for a piece of territory that belongs to you.
If you have the opportunity to acquire a piece of territory and become a real nobleman, even if you need to pay something, I am afraid that there will be a lot of people's hearts.
Especially those who had no chance of inheriting the territory, had no chance to become the second son of the nobleman, or even other children.
In order to obtain territory, they must take people to battle in person, go there to fight with the aliens in the desert, and seize their territory.
And these actions will indirectly reduce the pressure on the northern lords and reduce the pressure they need to face.
The whole process does not require much money or effort.
What the kingdom needs to pay is only the recognition of these lords.
Thinking of this, Oliman's eyes brightened.
