When the news reached Golden City, countless people were shocked. However, this time everyone's reaction surprised Meng Han.
First, the number one housekeepers of several big nobles came to Grace and reported to Grace that there were approximately as many private armed forces that the family could mobilize. If the Lord of the City needed it, feel free to use them.
At least in the eyes of these nobles who have settled in the Golden City, their current good life, bright future, and money path have been equated with the Golden City. They will both prosper and suffer. If someone comes to attack the Golden City, that means
If you can't get along with them, it's normal to use all your strength to defend together.
Of course, it is indispensable to sell well to Meng Han and at the same time express their feelings to Meng Han. In this way, these nobles told Meng Han that they were advancing and retreating with Meng Han. Compared with the previous days of the Magician Guild
After a long attack, the performance of these nobles has now made Meng Han very satisfied. Subconsciously, these people have regarded themselves as people from the Golden City.
Also showing off were those big business families. Many people came to Grace and asked if they could help with military logistics. Some were even willing to see some military supplies sold at low prices or given away for free. In their words
, I can’t help much in terms of manpower, but I can still help in terms of material resources and I will never refuse.
As for the underground guilds and the magician guild, they are originally under the control of Meng Han. They will do whatever Meng Han asks them to do. And many free mercenaries hanging around the Golden City have long regarded themselves as
Members of the Golden City have requested to join the Golden City's city guards to resist possible enemies of the two empires.
The whole Golden City is now truly united as one. When danger arises, they do not fly away when the disaster strikes, but twist into a rope to jointly resist the enemy. This is entirely through Meng Han's experience over the years.
Hard work means not only economic and political achievements, but also continuous victory in the face of powerful enemies.
Seeing this scene, at least Grace Alice and Amanda were very proud. In this world, except for religious countries like the Light Empire and the Dark Empire, which rely on fanatical religious beliefs to gather their people,
No king or grand duke has been able to do what Meng Han has done now. This is Meng Han's pride, and it is also the pride of their men and their own pride.
The war launched by the two empires immediately attracted the attention of the entire kingdom. The principality that bore the brunt naturally separated and resisted, but other principalities did not dare to take it lightly. His Majesty the King even issued an emergency summons, requesting the nearest principality to send an army immediately
Rescue and jointly resist the invading armies of the two empires. At the same time, His Majesty the King issued an ultimatum in the name of the kingdom, requiring the two empires to explain this unreasonable invasion.
Ever since Meng Han sponsored His Majesty the King 40 million gold coins, and His Majesty the King summoned troops loyal to him, and taught a large number of disobedient principalities a lesson, His Majesty the King's self-confidence began to expand. Even when facing the Empire of Light and the Empire of Darkness,
Such a big empire also has the confidence to speak.
Of course, confidence is not the most important thing. What is important is that His Majesty the King is very clear about the destructive impact that the two religious empires, the Light Empire and the Dark Empire, will have on his power. If once the two empires occupy those places,
In less than ten years, under the influence of their terrifying religious brainwashing, the people of the occupied enemy will no longer think of him as His Majesty the King, but will be completely loyal to the two empires. Everything can be done to the royal power.
His Majesty the King is actually very clear about the threats.
In fact, the Grand Dukes of those principalities are also aware of the threats of the two empires. Although some of the nobles below are not so sensitive, they all know that no matter what, once the enemy succeeds, they will be slaves to the subjugation of the country and will never be able to do so again.
It is impossible to have the life we have now, and it is impossible to have the current status and identity. Therefore, the resistance is very thorough.
The royal power and the divine power seemed to have started a confrontation inadvertently. One side was prepared, but the other side responded hastily. In less than two months, it was divided between the Empire of Light and the Empire of Darkness.
three principalities.
The Principality of Trans is not in the war zone, and even if the two empires target the Golden City, they must open up at least six principalities before facing the original Golden Dynasty Desert and now the Elf Forest. Catherine
I don't think Yu Oh is a threat. No matter how powerful the Light Empire and Dark Empire are, they are not powerful enough to compete with the elves.
Moreover, even if the elves let go of the two empires, Meng Han himself would not necessarily be afraid of the two empires. This is Catherine's confidence in Meng Han and her confidence in herself. So Catherine was not that panicked, but very worried.
He calmly sent a letter to Meng Han and asked him for his idea.
Of course, Meng Han didn't realize that Fanny and Angelina would be so stupid that they planned to cut off all their financial resources and attack the Golden City directly after they had just a few gold coins. However, the actions of the two empires also made him
Some people are confused as to why the war suddenly started. What's surprising is that the war is not between two empires, but between several principalities and two empires.
But looking at the attack directions of the two empires, Meng Han seemed to have a feeling that the two empires wanted to border the empire's territory with the Golden City. The more he guessed, the more he felt that this guess was correct, and it was very likely that this was
The true purpose of the two empires.
The question is, why are the two empires wasting so much time and money to launch a war? Is this a bit too childish? Is it because of the Book of Light and Book of Darkness that Meng Han accidentally mentioned?
Without seeing Fanny and Angelina, Meng Han couldn't be sure. Although the two empires were aggressive now, the new industries in the Golden City had not had the slightest impact and were still proceeding step by step.
Seeing the attitude of the Golden City Lord, the residents who were still a little panicked all put down their worries and began to live peacefully. Even the City Lord was not afraid, and they had nothing to fear.
During the war, there was no unusual movement in the Temple of Light and the Temple of Darkness in the Golden City. Those who should be promoting doctrines should still be promoting doctrines. When they should meet, they should still glare fiercely, even if everyone just received the news.
, they still behave like this when people are in panic. Even when faced with the unkind looks of some people, they still have a smile on their faces and enthusiastically come forward to promote their teachings.
Now it seems that since the city lord has not even canceled the temple, he must know some inside stories. After thinking of this, the nobles and merchants who had shown the initiative to move closer to Meng Han from the beginning were secretly happy in their hearts.
, their active surrender will definitely make Meng Han remember that he will be rich again in the future. No one has ever doubted Meng Han's generosity.
Since it was determined that nothing major happened, the people in the Golden City were happy to watch the show. Naturally, the Principality of Trans sent a large number of military generals and began to study the tactics used when the Empire of Light and the Empire of Darkness attacked those principalities, and
Weapons and equipment used, magic, and other war-related things. Knowing yourself and the enemy is enough to win a hundred battles, and showing them in actual combat will always teach you more than just insinuating things.
In fact, at this stage of the war, many people have guessed the strategic intentions of the two empires this time, which is to connect the territories of the two empires with the Golden City and open up trade routes. This strategic purpose seems unusual.
It's simple, but it is extremely important to the two great empires. There is nothing more terrifying than that your own economic lifeline needs to pass through the territory of another country, and is very likely to be strangled by other countries. If it were replaced by either
No far-sighted monarch or grand duke would allow this to happen.
Tea and porcelain are obviously now the economic throats of the Light Empire and the Dark Empire, and the Golden City is the sales window for the two empires. It does not seem to be a particularly difficult thing to understand for the two empires to open up this trade route.
Many monarchs and princes were all relieved. As long as they were sure that the two empires did not provoke the royal power, it had nothing to do with them. As for the several principalities that stood between the two empires and the Golden City, they were unlucky.
How stubborn are they to block other people's way? As long as the two empires have nothing to do with them, the nobles will not care about other people's lives or lives.
The subsequent development of the war also proved everyone's guess. After each captured the three principalities blocking the road, the two empires stopped in front of the Elf Forest and began to rapidly develop doctrines and enlightenment in the captured principalities.
Common people. And the two holy ladies also appeared in the Golden City for the first time.
"Tony, we want to connect to the Golden City, but you won't be angry if we didn't inform you, right?" Angelina looked at Meng Han coquettishly, as if she cared about Meng Han's feelings for them.
"It doesn't matter! Anyway, I wanted to destroy those principalities a long time ago, but I just didn't have the chance." When Meng Han first came to the Golden City, the sand bandits who robbed them all came from the other side of the desert.
There were several principalities. Meng Han had never had a good impression of those principalities.
"But, Tony, there is still an elven forest between us and the Golden City!" Fanny on the other side said in a pleading tone: "How can we connect to the Golden City?"
