In the small town of Iowa, in the hotel, Sonitu Fox looked at his teacher with fear. He really didn't understand why every orc attack he initiated was defeated, but his teacher Suvilla praised him for doing a good job. .
"You sensed the royal court's true goal for this war: to integrate the internal forces,"
The fox master who possessed the hotel clerk got up, walked to the window, and said slowly with his back to Sonitu: "The orcs have been at peace for more than 200 years. From the orc plateau to the Hindukel Valley, there are thousands of people. Tribes large and small, the eight major tribes above the royal court are quarreling endlessly, and the tribes outside the royal court are fighting each other. Now the order of the royal court is empty talk not only to the Hindu Kel tribes, but also to the large tribes on the plateau."
When the current situation was mentioned, the master showed obvious concern, "Too long peace has corroded the upper echelons of the royal court. Although our beast king is aware of the current situation, he is powerless. Now the entire orcs need a baptism of war. , to select the most powerful tribes and the most outstanding followers of the Beast God. And this Iowa Pass is the best whetstone."
"But teacher," Sonito hesitated for a long time before asking in a low voice, "the Galloping Horse family that currently rules the Iowa Pass is just a small noble who has just made their fortune. Can they become the whetstone for the great orc race?"
"I wasn't sure at first, but you proved with your actions that they can!" Suvilla suddenly turned around with a smile on her face, but still didn't open her eyes. "The tribal coalition composed of 30,000 rat men was actually eaten by them in one fell swoop. Next, think about it, if you hadn't instigated the rat men as cannon fodder and found out that they had at least 4 intermediate-level monsters that were about to break through, what a huge loss it would be if the troops from the Royal Court or the two major families in the basin came over? "
Hearing this, Sonitu did not think that he had any merit, but it was even more difficult: "But teacher, there is not much food left in the Royal Court, and the neutral city-states are not willing to lend us food. Will the Royal Court really send out the main force to conquer? ?”
Sonito, who had come all the way from the Orc Plateau, understood very well the attitude of the neutral city-states towards the Royal Court. He did not believe that these city-states would support the Royal Court with even a grain of food.
Faced with Sonitu's question, Suvla shook his head and said: "No, the main force of the royal court must guard against local factions like the Hindukels, as well as the sea orcs in the ice sea and the woodland ape tribe in the south. Now. The royal court wishes that the two tribes of Linmao and Jiaolang, led by Hindu Ker's more than 60 beast gods, would kill the Benma family and both sides would lose."
Listening to Suvilla's words, Sonitu's heart felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He had never thought that Wang Ting would have such an attitude towards his tribe, so he could only say tactfully: "I'm afraid, the Benma family won't agree, right? "
"It's not up to him to agree or not. He was born in a border area and still wants to please both the humans and the orcs?" Suvilla's tone gradually became colder. "The royal court doesn't care whether the lord who rules Yeqi City is strong or weak, but he It must be the enemy of the Hindukel orcs, only in this way can the royal court firmly control this rich border."
"Then teacher, what is your plan?"
"Isn't that human lord from the Benma family? Let the Benma family fight with each other first!" The master said it lightly, but Sonito became even more nervous.
…
In the hotel suite, Jenny Benma, who had a bad start, took an early rest. Ever since she inspired her bloodline, girls have been the Marquis of Fiat's heart. She shuttled back and forth in the Imperial Capital, the Southeast Capital, the Marquis City and the Poseidon Hall, and also There is no such fatigue and frustration as these days.
In her sleep, she returned to the Marquis Palace on Mangrove Island, and returned to the reception room of Marquis Fiat.
"Father, I'm sorry, I couldn't get Lant Galloping Horse to agree to give our family special treatment," Jenny felt full of guilt when facing her father.
However, Fiat said to her lovingly, "My daughter, it doesn't matter. You and I both know in our hearts that the fourth son of the baron in the wilderness, apart from having a noble title, is not even as good as the common people on our island. He is completely They are the scum of the Benma family!”
"But..." Jenny was about to say something, but was interrupted by Fiat.
"I know what you want to say. What legend of the Imperial City is behind him, what unifies the entire barbarian race? It's just the Tower of Purity looking for an obedient puppet." Fiat scolded Rant sharply, "Isn't that what it is now? I don’t know where the wild boy came from, and he has taken the position of ruling Ye Qicheng and excluded the bloodline that can truly represent the Benma family!"
"Father, he has a fairy queen behind him now. You'd better not criticize him." In her heart, Jenny did not despise Lant. Behind any high-ranking person, there is a more powerful being looking after him.
"Humph, who is he? The Fairy Queen is not looking after him, but our Galloping Horse family!"
Fiat's tone was full of disdain. He hugged Jenny and whispered: "I tell you, I have already said hello to our Queen Machiadis Purple Tung. If you can prevent the fourth son of the baron from becoming a lord, The queen will support you in taking over Yeqi City!"
"Me?" Jenny's face was full of doubts. Her father had never said that he could have a relationship with Queen Machiadis Zijintong, the cornerstone of the Southeast Kingdom. However, now his father actually told him that he could let her take charge of Ye Qi. city.
Jenny was a little dizzy. She walked to the table next to her and wanted to sit down and think about what her father had just said. On the far wall, there was a huge portrait of her and her parents. It looked so warm. .
"Daughter, don't hesitate any more. That Rand is in your town now. You should seize this opportunity. Although he has reached a high level, he is actually at the level of a high-level knight and cannot afford it. Give it your full blow!" Fiat kept urging as he looked at his daughter's back.
"Father?" Jenny pointed to the oil painting not far away, "Look at our family, how beautiful that painting is!"
Fiat was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Jenny to be interested in an oil painting: "Daughter, if you like it, I can hang that oil painting in the lord's room in Yeqi City. What you have to do is to get the oil painting from Yeqi City." Control of Qicheng!"
"But father," Jenny said calmly, "Isn't that oil painting of you and more than 30 concubines that you keep in the palace?"
"What?"
"This painting was painted by me and has been placed in my private residence. How could it be placed in the lord's study in the palace?" Jenny turned her head, looked at her "father" and said sternly: "Who are you? How dare you pretend to be a high-ranking lord of the empire!"
