Chapter 481

Why the Durham Empire?

Sherlock really doesn't understand.

With so much effort, so many resources and so many "coincidences", is the ultimate goal of controlling the dren Empire behind the scenes?

But why the Durham Empire?

In Sherlock's view, the dren Empire had inherent defects.

In terms of his geographical location alone, to the East is the barbaric and brutal empire of Lucia, a neurotic country that can start a border conflict for a thousand gold marks and does not care about tens of thousands of casualties.

In the southeast of the Empire, a large tributary of the Lanyin River scoured the plain, which was the vassal state of dozens of Lucian empire. These countries are extremely chaotic and have extremely sharp contradictions with each other. They all inherit the barbarism and neuroticism of the Lucian Empire, and basically go to war every month.

Those dozens of countries, big and small, have the traditional virtue of the Lucian Empire - "extreme poverty"!

Every country is too poor to wear pants. But just because of this, their folk customs are extremely fierce. As long as their Lord orders them, all the men from 12 to 60 years old will dare to fight in the battlefield with a rusty firewood knife.

Dozens of vassal states, big and small, and the smallest duchy can easily pull out hundreds of thousands of "troops"!

With such neighbors, the pressure on the eastern front of the Durham empire can be imagined.

In the northwest of the Durham Empire, needless to say, the highland tribes on the northern and southern plateaus, bounded by the Lanin corridor, had caused numerous troubles to the Durham Empire when they were still tribal alliances.

Now, with the appearance of an ambitious, self styled woman, the highland tribes have signs of unification.

Don't think about it. In the future, the northwest of the Durham empire will face greater challenges.

What about the west side of the Durham Empire?

There are hundreds of kingdoms and principalities in the vast mountains and basins. These kingdoms and principalities are closed and conservative, and they have the strong and treacherous style of the mountain people.

In the southwest frontier area, the local garrison fought with bandits and bandits all the year round. The bandits and vagrants were numerous and well-equipped, and sometimes they could even attack towns and plunder wealth and slaves with new field guns.

It is needless to say what people are clutching behind these bandits.

Because of the extremely rugged terrain, the Durham Empire had organized a large army to encircle and suppress the bandits for many times, but it only consumed countless grains and supplies in vain, and failed to cause a real fatal blow to those bandits.

As for the southwest of the Durham Empire, that's even more wonderful.

Across the way, the United Kingdom of nice is the kingdom of Saint heath, which is extremely hostile to the Empire of Durham.

Although the military strength of the United Kingdom is weak, they are extremely rich. Once they have conflicts with foreign enemies, they will not hesitate to drop golden mountains and hire a large number of mercenaries from the mountain countries in the north to take part in the war.

In the mountains, hundreds of kingdoms and principalities, big and small, and the weakest principality can easily pull out tens of thousands of valiant and valiant mercenaries who dare to play with you as long as they give you money.

As long as the money is in place, the United Kingdom can have a powerful military force of tens of millions at any time.

In terms of individual combat capability, the strength of these mercenaries is still higher than that of the regular army of the Durham empire.

To the west of the United Kingdom of nice is the kingdom of Saint heath, which is powerful, especially its navy, and can be called the superpower of medland.

The kingdom of Saint heath is located in the south of medland. To its north, it is the core hinterland of medland. In that vast plain area, large and small countries have their own advantages, so there are many powerful countries.

Compared with the top empires such as the Durham Empire and the ice sea Kingdom, these countries can only be called second rate powers, but the national strength of each country can not be underestimated, and each country has extremely strong potential.

Among those countries, more than a dozen neighboring countries are deeply influenced by it, just like the "little brother" countries of the Kingdom, and the overall national strength of each country is not weak.

The relationship between the kingdom of Saint heath and the Empire of Durham No need to say more.

Diplomats of both sides, if they attend banquets or formal diplomatic activities at the same time, if they meet once, four or five times out of ten will break out on the spot regardless of dignity!

This is true of diplomats who pay most attention to diplomatic etiquette. We can imagine how the relationship between the two countries is.

Once mobilized, the huge naval fleet of the kingdom of Saint heath will be able to transport millions of troops to the port of Toulon in just half a month.

In any case, the Dylan empire is a lion trapped in a cage. The huge Dylan empire can be called a four battle zone. If you want to control a country, the Dylan Empire should never be the first choice.

If Sherlock wants to choose He preferred the Lucian empire.

The royal family of the Lucian Empire had limited control over the local areas, and the major lords went their own ways. No matter in military, political or other aspects, the Lucian empire was in chaos to the extreme.

A chaotic empire is the easiest to control.So Sherlock was puzzled and asked her own question. This is a formal question from a 22 level sword bearer to a 27 level king.

According to the tradition and rules of Al organization, Florence should give Sherlock a clear and definite answer once such a formal question is raised.

"Oh, I can understand your doubts."

Florence turned his back to Sherlock. He looked at the lake in the distance and laughed softly.

"I can even guess, in your mind, those unfavourable conditions about the Durham empire."

"But, Sherlock, what's the purpose of my control of the Durham Empire?"

"To be emperor of the Empire? No, no, I'm not that boring. "

"I don't care about the future development of the Empire. I don't care about the territory, fate, politics and governance of the Empire. Will the Empire exist or perish in a few years' time? Is it of any value to me?"

"I've experienced the maddest and brutal tieduo era of this huge empire At that time, I was a valiant general of the Empire. I opened up territory for emperor tieduo. I led the soldiers to the three provinces in the south of the Empire. "

"I've experienced the darkest and bloodiest era of the mighty empire At that time, I was a second-class judge of the Supreme Court of the Empire, and I witnessed the collapse of this country, from the peak of its national strength, in just over a decade. "

"Then, I experienced the precarious and precarious early Marguerite era of the Empire, the middle Marguerite era when the Empire was reborn and strong again, and now we are in the late Marguerite era when the country is back to its peak and once again becomes greedy, brutal and wanton expansion."

"Your Majesty tieduo, you have controlled this country for seventy years."

"Your Majesty, you have played with this country for 50 years."

"Margaret She's a great woman. She's been papering this country for nearly 80 years

Sherlock's eyes widened slightly.

The old monster who lived from the time of tiedor to the present?

All right, old fronlosa Even if he only experienced half of the time of tieduo, he is now over 150 years old.

In 150 years, how many contacts did he accumulate in Al's organization, and how much strength did he accumulate himself?

"I know everything about this empire. I know everything about this empire. I used to love him crazily and hate him hysterically. Now I treat him very flatly

"It's like walking on the street and seeing your ex-wife who has been divorced for 50 years You'll have anything to do with her Impulsive? Will there be another wave in your heart? "

"Oh, no That's why I don't care about the future of this empire! "

"I only know that the army of the Durham empire is the most comprehensive army in medland, and the huge population base of the empire can provide me with billions of powerful troops, which is enough!"

Florence turned around. He took up the tea cup on his desk, drank the peacock's tongue, and then flipped the tea cup. A drop of green tea "Da" fell on the desk.

"I need a strong army to conquer the land of elephants."

"Peacock tongue, such a treasure, should not belong to that group of ignorant, ignorant, backward, uncivilized, the whole nation is still in the era of" slash and burn cultivation "

"I, as well as my friends, have comprehensively assessed the national character of the countries in medland. Judging from discipline, obedience, will, physique and other aspects, the army of the dren empire is the whole medland The sharpest sword

"The kingdom of ice sea, too hypocritical and proud."

"Gallic Republic, too loose and afraid of death."

"Nice United Kingdom, too cowardly, extremely cowardly."

"The kingdom of St. hea, the descendants of those sticks, you can't expect them to do anything."

"As for the Lucian empire They're more unreliable than their sleigh dogs

"Only the dren empire The whole medland people are laughing at their conservatism, machinery, veneer, and inhuman regularization and discipline, saying that they are as boring as machinery. "

"But what a precious group of natural warriors Since the founding of the Dylan Empire, countless wars have proved that they are the best and most powerful fighters in the world... "

For a moment, Florence hesitated.

He subconsciously looked east through the huge glass window.

Frowning, he murmured, "well, at least, they are the most powerful and excellent fighters of medland As for the whole world Well, they... "

Sherlock was curious again.

Florence praised the soldiers of the dren empire with such gorgeous language, but he was not sure that the soldiers of the dren Empire were the strongest soldiers in the world?east?

Interesting.

Sherlock secretly recorded this detail in her heart.

"I admire you, Sherlock It can even be said that I love and value you more than I love my own children. "

Florence looked at Sherlock gently: "you are one of Al's most potential, gifted and outstanding young people in the last 50 years So, I hope you can join us Or, at least, you don't want to be our enemy. "
