Chapter 219: The Wrangling Council of Elders
The elves have a proverb: Where there are intelligent beings, there will be disputes.
What's more, a country like Aijaka has a patriarchal system.
A Senate has the office of Grand Senator, thirty-six resident senators, and seventy-two honorary senators.
When there is something of great interest, everyone wants a piece of the pie, and hundreds of people will quarrel into a pot of porridge, which is more lively than a vegetable market.
At this time, facing the ridicule of the Teutonic elder, a group of people had very ugly expressions.
The hawks headed by the Schumer family advocate being tough on foreigners in order to ensure the popular support and cohesion of their own people.
This is why they persuaded many elders and ordered to notify Hadi so that the latter could 'self-certify'.
"The Great Elder's speech is inappropriate." Shumate Schumer stood up, wearing Ajiaka's iconic mustache, and shouted: "The more this happens, the more we should suppress those foreign countries that do not cooperate with us. People. We need a better sense of national identity and stronger national cohesion, instead of allowing people from other countries to enjoy the supreme glory here." "
The problem is that they are here to support us. If you don't give How can anyone help you if you get some real benefits?" Teutonic laughed: "If the Jeanna family hadn't resisted in Kexilan for almost a month, everyone here might have to pack up their belongings and prepare to go south again. Escaped."
"Without Kexilan, we still have the southwest battlefield."
Teutonic snorted: "At first glance, you don't understand what strategy is and what war is. The southwest is a plain, and there is no natural danger to defend at all. Where can you hide? Besides, once the eastern front is lost, the southwestern plain will be in danger. The enemy will directly go around from behind and destroy the central and western fronts." "What the
great elder means is to allow foreigners to attack us. He was arrogant in the land and killed our local nobles?"
"Who did he kill?" Teutonic asked.
"Blanche."
"I asked the soldiers who escaped. It was Blanche who entered on his own. His subordinates also warned him that he might be a bait. He didn't believe it himself. He insisted on dying. What can others do?"
"Those soldiers were bribed, and their words cannot be trusted."
This is the downside of the so-called freedom of speech.
Some people speak without any need for evidence, they just open their mouths.
There are more than a hundred elders, each with their own ideas. It is very common for them to choose to open their eyes and speak blindly for their own interests.
At this time, someone from the other faction spoke: "I think Blanche's matter can be shelved for now and discussed later. The biggest problem now is how we deal with the thousands of troops outside the city!" "
Of course it's a fight. Get out!" Shumate Schumer raised his arms and shouted: "How can it be difficult for thousands of troops to defeat our brave generals?"
Everyone looked at him with strange eyes.
Dracula Teutonic said: "Because of too many conscriptions before, the number of defenders in our city is now less than 3,000."
Shumate Schumer was stunned.
He has always focused on business matters, so he doesn't know much about the specific military situation.
"Didn't our previous city defenders have tens of thousands of people?"
New York is a huge city, much larger than France's capital, Boris.
It is not surprising that there were ten thousand defenders before.
"They were all sent to the front line." Teutonic's expression darkened: "But because of the relationship between Aenolia and Hammans, the front line was severely defeated. If Francie and Kaldor hadn't held on to the left front, we would have been defeated long ago. It’s over.”
This makes sense.
In fact, everyone knew this, but they didn't expect that their own defense was so empty.
Teutonic continued: "Our real population is very small, and the majority are gray orcs. Seventy-five percent of the population are gray orcs, unless you are willing to send weapons to the gray orcs and let them go to the front line." "
This Impossible!" Shumate-Schumer directly objected: "When the gray orcs have weapons, our doom will come."
They all know how they and others usually treat the gray orcs.
"Then how to deal with the army outside now." Teutonic looked at Shumate-Schumer: "It was your idea and your decision to ask France's Jeanne family to certify themselves. Now they are here. , how should we deal with this matter?" Shumate-Schumer sat back.
No matter how hard he talks, he can't change the real facts.
The army outside has surrounded all three city gates.
And the most terrifying thing is a cavalry regiment, flying an angel flag with a blue background.
Who doesn’t know that France’s heavy riding is unparalleled in the world?
There is a large plain outside, and only a fool would dare to go out of the city to quarrel with the heavy cavalry.
At this time, a younger senator said: "Can we transfer some men from the central front to attack the French army outside?"
"You also understand the quality of the soldiers on the central front." Teutonic He sighed and said: "On the battlefield, the quality of the soldiers is still important. The central front has always relied on natural dangers for defense, and... their actual combat capabilities are not good. Against France's heavy cavalry, five hundred people will It can crush ten thousand of them to death."
All the elders were in an uproar and found it very incredible.
But in fact, this is also an exaggeration.
Five hundred heavy cavalry cannot crush ten thousand people, they can only kill them until they are demoralized and run around.
In addition, after riding hard for a period of time, you need to rest.
Otherwise the war horse will die suddenly.
But many elders who don’t know much about war believe it.
"What should we do now?"
"People are knocking on the door, what can we do?"
"Which fool asked others to testify themselves."
"Whoever did it, let them deal with it."
Everyone in the Senate said They were talking, and their voices were extremely noisy.
But Shumate-Schumer can still hear a lot of conversations that are not good for him.
His face gradually turned ugly.
The sound of "dong dong dong" came down from the high platform, attracting everyone's attention again.
Teutonic put down the drum in his hand and said: "Now we have to make a decision on how to let France's army leave and how to calm the anger of the Jeanna family."
No one spoke.
Teutonic expression gradually became disappointed.
At this time, someone raised his hand. He had been very quiet before and had not spoken.
Teutonic was overjoyed when he saw this: "Arianna Rommel, what do you think?"
"Would you like me to go out and try?" Rommel coughed lightly and said: "My son Kamasi, and Jean Mr. Hardy, the powerful general of the Na family, seems to have a good relationship. Let's see if we can get some connections from him." When
everyone heard this, they all looked at Rommel.
There are those who admire and there are those who are jealous.
His connections are so wide?
Teutonic then asked: "What's the success rate?"
"I don't know, I'm just trying." Arianna smiled gently.
