He happened to be seriously ill at this time, and even Wang Chu felt that the King of Rhine was deliberately claiming to be ill and not negotiating.
"Why at this time?"
Rias didn't say it out loud, but everyone present could understand what she wanted to say.
"I thought so before.
After all, the closest of the two empires is our Asta Empire.
As long as we make any moves, it will be fatal to them."
Marshal Mansoor said.
"But I just entered the palace yesterday and saw the King of the Rhine.
He didn't look like he was pretending.
The climate in the north is milder, which is different from the west.
There hasn't been such a big snowstorm in the imperial capital for many years.
The King of the Rhine is not a warrior.
It's not normal for magicians to get sick occasionally," Marshal Mansour said, finally turning the topic to this battlefield.
"Right now, there is only one thing we have to do.
Commander Rias, Knight Commander Novai, Atlas, and of course General Lucia, we at the Imperial Capital Military Department also have to come up with a unified opinion. , so that our attitude can be expressed in discussions with internal officials and the king."
He pointed to the map on the wall, the junction of the two countries, and the location of the Asta Imperial Capital.
Wang Chu looked at the map and was thinking about what they would do.
Now is the beginning.
If we really decide to fight two countries, will we use all our troops to fight to the death?
This situation is generally unlikely.
There are wolves in front and tigers in the back.
If we don't sue for peace halfway through, this war will be meaningless.
Wang Chu still hasn't seen the purpose of the sudden fight.
There must be a purpose in launching a war.
What is their purpose?
The reason why the peace of human countries can be maintained for decades is because of the rise of the Asta Empire, which has caused the countries in the north to contain each other.
As for the east, Wang Chu looked at the map.
Linton, the country where the warlord Sindal and the hunter sister Christia were, which we had visited before, were both too far away.
There are several countries in between.
This kind of expedition is not suitable for logistics and material transportation, so they should not get involved.
Wang Chu has not heard of any of the surrounding countries that are strong, and he has not much impression.
Therefore, compared to the fight between the two eastern kingdoms, Wang Chu personally thought that the northern country would be the least likely to start a fight.
Unexpectedly, it actually started a fight.
The world is indeed full of novelties every day.
"We must come up with a unified opinion.
Atlas, you also represent the opinion of your father.
If the two marshals of the empire have a unified opinion, and the opinions of important military personnel can easily affect the king's decision, on the decision of war, The cathedral usually doesn't put forward opinions.
Only the military and the Magician Association have the right to say whether we should join the war or wait and see."
Seeing that several people remained silent, Mansol narrowed the options.
Join the war or wait and see.
Wang Chu looked at his old and strong body and couldn't tell that this old guy was also a war madman.
That's right, otherwise it would be impossible to sit in the position of marshal.
"Anyway, we can't listen to the country of Atulan.
No matter what conditions they give, we can't believe it.
Don't forget that they almost defeated us decades ago."

Rias said firmly.
Of course there was selfishness involved, because after Julian's death, Rias had always been brooding about Atulan's war decades ago.
"That's right, we can't forget the past.
Many of our people died in that war.
Even now, the people of the empire still have a bad impression of Atulan and have always listed them as a hostile country.
However, the problem still comes back.
We should wait and see if we participate in the war.
When the two empires are at war, it is better to directly help Castile attack Atulan."
Mansor finally expressed his thoughts.
His fingers then tapped heavily on the map a few times, and Wang Chu guessed a few things.
This guy really wants to join the war.
"This is a rare opportunity that we will never encounter no matter how many years it takes.
I never thought they would take the initiative to attack Castile."
There was silence in the room.
The people present were all young people, who could also be regarded as the future military leaders of the empire.
The reason why Mansoor did not let generals of the same age come over was probably because he had his own little calculation.
Their decision will start a war.
Neither Rias nor Novai have spoken at this time.
"But my father's opinion is to stay still for the time being and see how the two empires will eventually go.
If we launch an attack rashly and Atulan suddenly stops fighting on the front line and turns to face us again, then the war decades ago will It will happen again."
The only young man present stood up and spoke first.
"What are you waiting for?
Are you waiting for Arturan to prepare the western defense line again?
Who do you think Castile is?
The most powerful empire in the world.
They have always been so for thousands of years.
They will not let go.
Anyone who challenges them, even if they choose to surrender," Mansour said again.
This time his intention was more obvious, and it was obvious that he wanted everyone present to unify his opinions.
"But as for the north, don't forget the marshal and the city wall in the north that they have guarded for generations.
If they organize their forces to complete revenge, they will lose more.
Why has the strongest country in the mainland never launched an active war?
This has already been It’s obvious.”
"There is never the best outcome in this world.
My children have to fight for everything by themselves."
"Betting means you lose and you win," Mansol said, staring at the opponent.
The two got into a quarrel about sending troops.
Rias had never been involved in the conversations of real high-level figures before.
Now Wang Chu finally saw what the meetings that decided the direction of the empire were like, even though it only decided the opinions of the military department.
"But what's the price, Marshal?
Have you ever thought about what the price is?
We will face the same embarrassment as we did decades ago and use all the strength of the entire empire to resist."
"Never think of failure before the ending has not begun.
Now the empire has been limited to internal fighting between localities and the imperial capital.
Although it is not obvious, we all know it, and now is such a good opportunity.

If we win, the territory of the Asta Empire It will extend from the west to the north, and Castile is not good at going out to fight.
As you said, in the end we are the king of the entire west and north.”
He banged the wall hard and said indignantly.
There were no voices of rebuttal around, and certainly no voices of agreement.
"I know this matter needs to be considered, so let's just stop here tomorrow and you all go back and we will continue tomorrow.
I hope we can agree on it in the shortest possible time."
This kind of discussion has no results, so we might as well go back and think about it.
Wang Chu looked at the closed window.
The ice-type dragon should still be lying outside.
It is estimated that all institutions are in agreement at this time
