Owen is not unaware of the aggressiveness of the Popon Empire, after all, it has eliminated and annexed several countries, but the Dawnlight Kingdom has just ended the civil war and achieved unification, and now it should focus on developing the economy and improving people's livelihood and well-being.So much has happened in the past period of time, and it is estimated that the people have long been disgusted with war.The Popang Empire has not yet sent troops to invade the Dawnlight Kingdom, but he took the initiative to provoke a war on the grounds that he was worried that the other party would launch an invasion, which may not be popular with the people.Owen did not understand the truth that the belligerent must die, and he wanted to avoid giving the people a bad impression of a war maniac.Looking at the envoy of the Fagaran Alliance, Owen asked, "In addition to our Morning Light Kingdom, your Fagaran Alliance should have also invited other countries, right?"
”"Yes, that's right."
The envoy didn't deny it, and said directly: "At present, only the Starflame Kingdom said that it would consider this matter carefully, I wonder if Your Majesty intends to join forces with our Fagaran Alliance?"
”"The stakes are high, I need time to think about it, and I can't give you a definitive answer right now."
Starting a war is no child's play, and Owen didn't agree right away."
Please also ask Your Majesty to seriously consider this matter."
In fact, the messenger did not have much hope from the beginning.Based on his past understanding of the Dawnlight Kingdom, there is a threat of undead monsters in the north of this country, and there is a subhuman race in the south, which needs to send heavy troops to guard the frontier at all times, and may not be able to draw too many troops to carry out an expedition against the Popon Empire.Not to mention, the Popon Empire has a very powerful land army, even if it is to join forces to deal with it, the Dawnlight Kingdom will have to weigh its own strength first.If it fails, it will be a price that no country can afford.Having said that, the emissary still had to fight for all the forces he could, after all, the Fagaran Alliance alone could not defeat the Popon Empire.He can only keep reminding other countries to be vigilant against the threat of the Popan Empire, so that other countries will be afraid of the strength of the Popan Empire, and then urge the countries to join forces with the Fagalan Alliance to deal with the Popan Empire."
The ambitions of the Popan Empire definitely don't end there, what Emperor Nicholas wants is to conquer the entire continent, and if our Fagaran Alliance falls, then there will be one less ally who can jointly deal with the Popan Empire.I hope that Your Majesty will give an answer as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too late. ”Before retreating, the messenger warned Owen again.The Fagaran Alliance had no other cooperation to discuss with the Dawnlight Kingdom, and only wanted to deal with the Popong Empire.After the envoys had retired, the meeting with the envoys of various countries ended there.In addition to the Popon Empire, there were two other countries that did not send emissaries to the Dawnlight Kingdom.One is the Elven country of Venola, a subhuman country that has been severely persecuted by humans, so it maintains a high level of vigilance against humans, adopts a policy of seclusion and seclusion, and has not established diplomatic relations with any human countries.The other is the Wizard of Bigris, which focuses on the study of magic and everything related to it, and has never been very interested in anything else.Owen turned his head to look at Viscount Jarvis, Clive, and Viscount Nishizawa who were present, and rarely asked for their opinions."
What do you think about joining forces against the Popon Empire?""
Your Majesty."
Viscount Nishizawa was the first to stand up, and said with a worried face: "If the Popon Empire really intends to destroy all countries and conquer the entire continent, then it is better for us to send more soldiers to garrison Longya Ridge to strengthen our defenses.It's always a good idea to be cautious when facing an ambitious enemy. ”The next is Clive, who is looking at the matter from the point of view of the national interest."
Your Majesty, this time it's not about fighting a civil war at home, it's about going on an expedition to another country.To start a war is to use national resources, it takes a lot of manpower and material resources, and the Dawnlight Kingdom has just ended the civil war, so I think it's better not to take the initiative to provoke a new war, and try to avoid it. ”The last to speak was Viscount Jarvis, who was confident in the military strength of the KPA."
If the Popong Empire dares to launch an invasion, I am confident that I will lead the People's Army to repel them all and defend our territory."
Owen is not very afraid of the army of the Popon Empire, because the weapons and equipment of the People's Army have been upgraded many times, and the combat effectiveness of the army is so strong, I am afraid that there will be no opponent on the entire continent.In the past, the Popang Empire claimed to have the strongest land army, but now, this title should be given to the People's Army of the Dawnlight Kingdom.It's just that the emissaries of the Fagalan Alliance still have a sense of the Dawnlight Kingdom stuck in the past, but they don't know that it has already been reborn.After thinking about it, Owen decided not to take the initiative to get involved in this matter, "Hmm......
That's good, send another People's Army unit to garrison Longya Ridge, strengthen the defense, and then let the spies of the Intelligence Bureau infiltrate the Popon Empire and closely monitor the movements of the army.I don't want to take the initiative against the Popan Empire, but if they dare to show their fangs at us, they will have to fight back. ”The Popong Empire's naval military strength is not strong, and it is unlikely that they will attack from the sea, and if they want to invade the Dawnlight Kingdom, they will have to break through the Dragon's Tooth Ridge.Therefore, strengthening the defenses of Dragon's Tooth Ridge should be enough to deal with the threat of the Popang Empire.…… After receiving the envoys from various countries, Owen received an invitation from the Magic Stone Research Association, saying that the research on synthetic magic stones had achieved certain results, and he wanted to ask him to come over and have a look.Speaking of which, Owen cut down a lot of Magic Stone Research Association projects last year, and asked Celal Henry to focus on several synthetic magic stones, and promised to give them a higher research fund if the research progressed.Exactly a year has passed, and it's time to check whether Celar has researched a practical synthetic magic stone this year.Armed with his guards, Owen returned to the spire in the inner city, the Magic Stone Research Institute.At the entrance of the institute, the president of the association, Seral, who received the news in advance, and a group of key members had been waiting for a long time.Seeing Owen coming, they neatly stroked their chests and saluted, and said in unison, "Welcome to the Magic Stone Research Institute." ”"Hmm."
Owen nodded, "I heard that you have worked research in the past year, and I wonder if you can come up with research results that are satisfactory to me." ”"Your Majesty."
Celal stepped forward and said confidently, "We have made a lot of progress in our research this time, and we will definitely satisfy you." ”"Oh?
Is it?
”Hearing this, Owen raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly."
Then take me in and have a look.""
Yes, Your Majesty."
After saying that, Celal quickly turned sideways, raised his hand and made a gesture of please, and the members of the association in front of him immediately made way for a passage."
Please come in with me
