Magic Industry Empire - 1041
The mainland calendar is 3800 years, and the first year of the new century is obviously an uneasy year.
Or to be precise, the second half of the year was very unstable.
Just entering July, when the summer heat was about to show its irresistible power, the turbulence first occurred in the southeast corner of the mainland.
The United Kingdom of Commerce Nozdormu, which has been silent for several years since the last war to invade its northern neighbors, suddenly launched another war against its northern neighbors.
This time, the excuse given by the United Kingdom of Nozdorme is a very humble conflict on the northern border.
However, after the start of the war, the posture of the United Kingdom of Nozdorme was not just for the resolution of a skirmish, but for a full-scale war.
Relying on the large number of military magic machines obtained in close cooperation with the New Flying Chamber of Commerce over the years, the army of Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom has a fighting capacity far stronger than that of neighboring countries.
Coupled with the extraordinary financial resources of the United Kingdom of Nozdorme, it took only one month and ten days that the United Kingdom of Nozdorme completely occupied the two small principalities in the north, and will be in the last war. Another kingdom that they had swallowed a small part of the land once again occupied most of it.
The two small duchy declared their demise, and the kingdom that was occupied by the United Kingdom of Nozdormu for most of the land was also badly injured and depressed.
At the same time, the West of Nozdorme Business United Kingdom, and the Principality of Wales, which is less than a thousand kilometers away, is equally restless.
In mid-July, the Principality of Wales suddenly invaded the Principality of Tomor, the neighboring country to the east, without declaring war.
Half a month later, the Principality of Tomor declared its demise and was fully incorporated under the name of the Principality of Wales.
At the end of July, the Maro Empire suddenly used a border conflict and the army invaded the Kingdom of Du Rhine bordering the southwest border.
Although the Kingdom of Du Rhine is also rated as a country with a three-level industrial standard by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, it has a lot of investment in military magic machinery, but it is still incomparable with the huge empire of the Malo Empire.
After resisting hard for a month and a half, the Duaine Kingdom fully surrendered to the Maro Empire and announced that it would cede more than 1,300 square kilometers of land that bordered the Maro Empire to the Maro Empire and open all domestic minerals to the Maro Empire. resource.
In mid-August, the Candela Empire did not want to lag behind, and also moved.
However, the actions of the Candela Empire were not to launch a war, but were announced directly to the public. The Principality of Norton was incorporated into the Candela Empire and has since become a part of the southwestern province of the Candela Empire.
As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a tremor in various countries in the southwest corner of the Sainz continent.
Although the Principality of Norton is only a small principality, its geographical location is very special, and it happens to be blocking the traffic arteries of several countries in the southwest corner of the mainland leading to the Candela Empire.
If you want to go east or northeast from the southwest corner of the continent and go deep into Sainz, except for a detour for thousands of kilometers from the southernmost part of the endless sea, the remaining two routes have to pass through the Principality of Norton.
For this reason, the Principality of Norton has always been regarded as the gateway to the southwest of the mainland by the countries in the southwest of the mainland, as one of the gates to prevent the Candela Empire from invading the countries in the southwest corner of the mainland.
The other, naturally, is the Kingdom of Ruelson.
After the Principality of Norton was incorporated into the Candela Empire, the Ruelson Kingdom was the most nervous about it.
Because before that, the border between the Ruelson Kingdom and the Candela Empire was only a small area in the east of the Ruelson Kingdom and the southwestern part of the Candela Empire.
When the Candela Empire invaded the Ruelson Kingdom twice before, although the main reason why the Ruelson Kingdom was able to successfully resist the invasion twice was because of the support of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, it occupied the absolute advantage on the battlefield with a large number of military magic machinery. But the reasons for geographical factors are also very important.
Now that the Principality of Norton was merged into the Candela Empire, the border between the Principality of Norton and the Ruelson Kingdom became the border between the Candela Empire and the Ruelson Kingdom, which meant that the northern part of the Ruelson Kingdom was directly exposed to the Candela Empire.
Even when the Ruelson Kingdom had an advantage in military magic machinery before, it was extremely difficult to resist the all-out attack of the Candela Empire.
Now that the gate to the north is wide open, the Kingdom of Ruelson has lost its geographical advantage. In addition, the Candela Empire has also cooperated closely with the New Flying Chamber of Commerce over the years, and has achieved significant development in military magic machinery. Although the Kingdom of Ruelson is here There is still an advantage in this respect, but the advantage is already extremely small.
Therefore, the news that the Principality of Norton was merged into the Candela Empire concealed a more dangerous meaning for the Ruelson Kingdom.
If the Candela Empire invades again on a large scale, with the current strength of the Ruelson Kingdom, I am afraid that the fate will be worrying.
“Don’t worry too much, I am afraid that the Candela Empire hasn’t moved your thoughts right now.” Xu Yi looked at Duke Borris, the chairman of the Ruelson Kingdom Council who was full of anxiety and anxiety, and shook his head gently.
This time, the Ruelson Kingdom actually directly sent the Duke of Borris, an important figure second only to His Majesty King Trutz, to Xu Yi, which proved that the Ruelson Kingdom is now extremely worried about this issue.
“Not moving our thoughts?” Duke Borris was startled slightly, then smiled bitterly and shook his head. “President Xu, our Ruelson Kingdom and the Candela Empire have always had frictions, and wars broke out before, and the hatred is extremely deep. If the Candela Empire has the opportunity, it will definitely not hesitate to invade.”
“My lord, I think you understand better than I do. The nature of war is for profit. If the Candela Empire launched an invasion against the Ruelson Kingdom just to defend the empire’s honor, I don’t even believe you. right?”
Duke Boris nodded with a calm face: “Of course. The Candela Empire is clearly coming for the territory of our Ruelson Kingdom.”
“So you think they still hold this idea, right?” Xu Yi asked again.
“Of course.” Duke Borris frowned slightly and glanced at Xu Yi. “President Xu, isn’t it normal for the territory? Any country will have this idea, let alone a super-large empire like the Candela Empire.”
“That was before. Now they are not necessarily anymore.” Xu Yi shook his head, and after a moment of indulgence, he said with a serious face: “My lord, let me just say something you don’t like. What do you think…the territory of your Ruelson Kingdom must have the Candela Empire? Want the value you want?”
Duke Borris looked at Xu Yi with a puzzled look.
“Chairman Xu, your question is a bit… weird. Isn’t it taken for granted that a country has a desire for territory?”
“But if the acquisition of this territory does not bring any benefits to oneself, on the contrary, it has to pay a very high price, then there will be people, or is there any country willing to do this?”
Duke Borris frowned deeply, thinking for a long time, still puzzled.
“President Xu, what do you mean is that our Ruelson Kingdom has no value to the Candela Empire now, so they won’t pay a huge price to invade us?”
“I can’t be 100% sure, but it shouldn’t deviate too much.” Xu Yi nodded. “From my point of view, the mineral resources in the Ruelson Kingdom are not rich, and other properties are also very common. The only thing that is really valuable is probably the southern outlet. And the Candela Empire is not lacking. So to them, your Ruelson Kingdom does not have enough value, so they have to pay a sufficient price.”
“But… the territory itself is extremely valuable…”
Seeing that Duke Boruis still couldn’t understand his thoughts, Xu Yi felt a little helpless.
This is the biggest difference between him and the natives of Sainz, who has traveled from the earth.
For the people on Sainz continent, land is the most important thing, because land can produce food, so naturally, the more land, the more food can be produced, so that more people can be fed.
Therefore, almost everyone on Sainz Continent hopes that they can control more and more land, and all countries hope that their territories are getting bigger and bigger.
This concept is inevitable in the backward period of production technology. It was like this before on earth, and Sainz is no exception.
However, since the emergence of the New Flying Merchants Association, a large number of farmland magic machines have been developed, combined with the chemical fertilizers and various crop catalysts manufactured in cooperation with the Elves, so that the food production of many countries on the Sainz continent has increased significantly.
Even this most important problem has been solved, but Duke Borris still holds such traditional outdated ideas, Xu Yi can only be speechless.
After thinking for a while, Xu Yi gave up discussing in detail with Duke Borris about whether territory is important to a country. Instead, he changed his words: “Well, Lord Duke, please go back and tell Your Majesty the King. Our new flying chamber of commerce and Lu The Kingdom of Elson is a close partner. If there are difficulties in the Kingdom of Elson, the New Flying Merchants Association will never ignore it.”
Hearing these words, Duke Boruis’ eyes lit up and his expression was overjoyed.
The purpose of his coming to the New Flying Business Association this time is to win the support of the New Flying Business Association.
But he did not expect that Xu Yi would actually agree so happily. The most important thing is that the answer given is not vague at all, but very clear and clear.
“Your Majesty the King will be very happy to be able to get President Xu’s promise.” As soon as Duke Boris grasped Xu Yi’s hand, he shook it vigorously. “Chairman Xu, Ruelson Kingdom will always be the best partner of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce!”
Xu Yi kept smiling on the surface, but sighed softly in his heart.
If it wasn’t for the purpose of maintaining a strategic buffer zone between the main base of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and the Candela Empire, how could he have made such a clear answer.
