Alien Arms Empire.

Chapter 461 461 The First Year of the Empire
"We need enough support, especially the support of the empire!" Lioness, in the brand new palace, Lions I, who had just become the emperor of the empire, was listening to the plea of ​​the dwarf special envoy.

The dwarf from the Frozen Kingdom respectfully explained the purpose of his visit: "I hope His Majesty Lioness can help the Frozen Kingdom."

"Lines is a young empire after all, and his qualifications in this area are still very shallow. Our support may not be the most powerful for the Frozen Kingdom." Lions I fiddled with Tang Mo and gave it to him A work of art, glanced at the dwarven envoy.

It is true that everyone is an ally, but each has its own interests.From the point of view of Lions I, it would not do him any good to support the Ice Kingdom in this matter.

The ostentation of Liones I ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor, in the eyes of interested people, greatly stimulated their ambitions.

Having captured Ironforge and established prestige in the surrounding dwarf countries, the king of the Ice Kingdom also wanted to proclaim himself emperor.

So 15 days after the establishment of the Lions Empire, he sent his special envoy to seek support from various countries, and prepared to enjoy himself as an emperor.

However, because everyone has just witnessed the birth of the Lions Empire, they are a little less interested in supporting a new empire. After all, no one wants to see more and more powerful empires.

Especially the countries of the "Datang Group" in the north, they are directly facing the pressure of the powerful Ice Kingdom, and they don't want to see the Ice Kingdom become an empire.

In fact, the two elf empires, the Poplar Kingdom and the Pine Kingdom, have been secretly supporting the Dwarf Kingdom, which is not very good at dealing with the Ice Kingdom.

The orc Kingdom of Galles is also cautiously dealing with the relationship with the dwarves, and is unwilling to easily express its position on whether to support the dwarves in rebuilding a powerful empire.

The Kingdom of Susas also has its own considerations. They don't want to offend neighboring countries by supporting the Ice Kingdom and cause tension on the northern border.So they euphemistically expressed their neutral position, and resolutely did not get involved in the crap of the dwarves building an empire.

Seeing that these four kingdoms have their own calculations, if the Frozen Kingdom wants to be upgraded to a true empire, it can only seek its own supporters in the south.

The Dorne Kingdom has an ambiguous attitude. They actually agree with the matter of upgrading the Frozen Kingdom to an empire.

Not for anything else, but because King Dorne is also considering becoming emperor, he will not refuse to make an exchange of interests with the dwarves on this matter.

Soon the two countries reached a consensus that the Dorne Kingdom supports the Ice Kingdom to become the Ice Empire, and the same Ice Kingdom will fully support the Dorne Kingdom to become the Dorne Empire!
Now, the dwarves are focusing on the two empires, the Lions Empire and the Nanla Empire.As long as these two empires support them, then there is a lot to be done for the Frost Kingdom to be upgraded to the Frost Empire.

I have to admit that in terms of favors, Lions I really owed the Frozen Kingdom - when he proclaimed himself emperor, the other side expressed support.

But whoever is human is human, and in terms of national interests, Lions I had to think carefully and make his own choice carefully.

"I will consider this matter!" When he didn't know what to do, Lioness I put down the handle in his hand and used a dragging tactic.

The dwarf envoy also knew that he would not easily get the support of the Lions Empire, so he bowed slightly and left the living room.

The door of the next room was opened, and the prime minister of the empire and several ministers walked in. They were in the next room and heard the dwarf's request.

Originally, among the conditions for the Datang Group to fully support Liones I to proclaim himself emperor, there was the condition of re-arranging a prime minister, but with the exchange of interests between the two parties, this condition was abandoned by the Datang Group.

Therefore, the former prime minister of the kingdom has now retreated to the second line, and the current prime minister of the empire is another confidant of Lions I.

The emperor of the empire would not allow an old man with an unclear relationship with Tang Mo to continue sitting in the position of prime minister to influence the empire's decision-making.

Even among the ministers who came in, the imperial finance minister Simeone could not be seen-he was also excluded from the core decision-making circle of the empire.

"Your Majesty, supporting the Frozen Kingdom is strategically beneficial to us. We can set our own price." The prime minister of the empire spoke his opinion.

"Indeed, if we support the growth of the Frost Kingdom in the north, then at least we can put pressure on the poplar, pine and Galles kingdoms and let them focus their energy on the north." Another minister also agreed.

"Things are not that simple! If we do this, it will almost be a good start for the Kingdom of Dorne." Another minister was worried and reminded.

King Dorne's ambition is almost the same as Sima Zhao's heart. It is not easy to hide the operation of a vast country that wants to be upgraded to an empire.

Therefore, it is impossible to conceal anything if one is willing to investigate. Everyone knows that after the annexation of the two kingdoms of Talen and Hillen, the Dorne Kingdom is even comparable to the Lions Empire in terms of land area.

With almost equal national power, there will naturally be equal ambitions, so the Kingdom of Dorne's small calculations are clear to the Empire of Lions.

Therefore, Lions I was so cautious in supporting the Frozen Kingdom to become an empire.

The information he holds in his hand is that Donne and Binghan have secretly supported each other, and this information is highly likely to be true!
Support the Frozen Kingdom to become an empire, and then face the situation where the Dorne Kingdom becomes the Dorne Empire-this is very detrimental to the Lions Empire.

At that time, the Lions Empire will face the double attack from the Dorne Empire and the Nanla Empire in the south and east at the same time-this is not a state that the Lions Empire wants to see.

Even if it only puts more pressure on the border area in terms of situation, it is enough to make the newly born Lions Empire breathless.

"Although in fact, the Dorne Kingdom has already put tremendous pressure on us on the border, but if they become an empire, our pressure will only be even greater." After he finished speaking, he looked at Lions I.

Lions I didn't say a word, thinking in his heart whether he should accept such a situation: three empires were established one after another in one breath, and the moisture of his emperor was infinitely compressed.

If the other two quasi-empires were established one after another, what would he be the emperor?a joke?Or a tragedy?
Why did he take out so many benefits, even owed huge debts, to become the emperor?The reason... Isn't this name worth the price?
It's all right now, if he doesn't pay attention, it's like the empire is walking all over the place, the emperor is not as good as a dog - the elder brother with the title of emperor can't count on two hands, so he still has the title Ass?

Therefore, Lions I is very wronged now, and he even has a little resentment: Datang Group seems to have given all-round support on the issue of upgrading the Frozen Kingdom to the Frozen Empire.

In other words, Datang Group is responsible for the Frozen Empire matter!Thinking of this, Lions I felt uncomfortable again.

It seems that Mr. Tang of Datang Group is becoming more and more unreliable!Then I am in the direction of Yucheng, should I also prepare for defense?
Thinking about it this way, his whole body is not good.Because of the rapid rise of the Lions Empire with the backing of the Datang Group, it has now become a passive situation of being attacked from three sides.

Nanla in the east and Dorn in the south are actually just small troubles. The most deadly thing is the Datang Group with terrifying energy and bottomless strength!

If it weren't for this group's recent efforts to attack the east coast of the endless sea, Lions I would definitely be even more restless now.

The Datang Group has been attacking the Zheng State recently, but after the Datang Group has secured the Zheng State on the east coast of the Endless Sea, where will Tang Mo focus his attention?
In terms of strength, the Datang Group after taking control of Zheng Guo definitely has the strength of an empire. It is no longer restricted by population and land, and will have terrifying mobilization capabilities and war potential in the future.

He has the confidence to deal with the Nanla Empire, and he doesn't think he will be defeated by Dorne in the south, but as long as he thinks that he is going to compete with such a powerful Datang Group, his whole body will tremble with fear.

"Your Majesty! We still need to consider the opinions of the Datang Group on this matter." After thinking about it for a while, the Prime Minister still said something that made Lions I uncomfortable.

However, it doesn't matter if it's uncomfortable or not, Lions I really wants to consider this suggestion.If he didn't consider Datang's opinion, he might not even be able to pay back the interest on the loan tomorrow.

After thinking about it, the more Lioness I looked at Tang Mo's gift on the table in front of him, the angrier he became, and as soon as he reached out to grab it, he wanted to throw it to the ground.

But his hand had already been raised, and then slowly lowered—he thought of the so-called price of this thing, which inevitably made him feel a little pained; he thought about it again as a "national gift", and was afraid that Datang Group would feel uncomfortable if he knew it.

Finally, he put the ornament back to its original position, sighed, nodded and said, "Then send someone to ask Mr. Tang what he means..."

Fifteen days later, the king of the Frozen Kingdom proclaimed himself emperor in Ironforge, and the Frozen Kingdom officially changed its name to the Frozen Empire.The Nanla Empire and the Dorne Kingdom sent congratulations, and the Lions Empire also sent gifts to express their goodwill.

Another month passed, and the King of Dorne proclaimed himself Emperor.

Three empires were established one after another, so this year is called the first year of the empire.
