Lords go left, Emperors go right

"Master, there is no difference. You have the final say."

"Edina, well, since you guys took the initiative to come over here, don't blame me..."

"Master, please punish me severely..."

"Beniya, you greedy cats, you want it again so soon."

Osta was lying on the bed, thinking about the problem. Next to him, within reach, were the beauties who had just been conquered and trained, the three famous sword ladies of the Principality of Dennis, and the four lady magicians of the Combat Magician Corps among the garrison of the Gorenz Fortress. Under the arrangement of the gentleman prince, the beauties were treated equally. They stayed by their masters' side, actively making love, and completely devoted their bodies and minds to the flesh-colored humanoid dolls, indulging in the pursuit of forbidden pleasures.

At the initiative of the beauties, Osta found red linen thread and tied these beauties up in the classic method of tortoise shell binding. After the binding was completed, they became tempting big meat dumplings that looked very attractive and exciting. The gentleman prince could play with them at will and pick them up to taste them. After many in-depth and simple exchanges, the beauties were completely addicted, all of them were crazy, but their expressions were obsessed, and the eyes in their beautiful eyes, when they looked at Osta, revealed all the affection.

Osta had just had a beautiful dream. With these warm jade-like human-shaped pillows around him, he had a great sleep quality. The movements of the beauties were bound by the red linen thread, tightly bound, and in a delicate restrained posture, unable to move. Otherwise, they would fight for the initiative. The gentleman prince lowered his head and was ready to continue the Wushan rain with these beauties when the subordinates' reports came from outside the door. Unless it was a close female subordinate, when ordinary subordinates came to report to Osta, if the meeting place was in a room such as a bedroom, these smart subordinates had a tacit understanding and basically would not enter the door, so as not to disturb Osta's leisure time.

"Your Highness, a guest has come to see you."

"What guest? Visiting at this time?"

"Your Highness, she is a guest from Danpela City. She doesn't want to reveal her identity, and said she would only reveal it after meeting you."

"What a unique person! I'm very busy now and I don't have time. Let that guy come later... or later."

"As ordered."

"Wait...."

"Your Highness, do you have any other instructions?"

"Is the guest a man or a woman?"

Osta didn't want to meet the guest at first, but after hearing the detailed report from his subordinates that the visitor was a lady, the gentleman prince quickly changed his mind and decided to meet her. The meeting place must not be chosen in the temporary palace. This is Osta's mobile back garden, which has many beauties, and they are dressed coolly and attractively. Osta arranged the meeting place in the tent of the chief general of the temporary camp of the Blomfield coalition. This seemed to be a more formal occasion, and he met with the other party as the deputy commander of the Obelisk Imperial Army. Although Osta had the seal of the commander awarded by the Emperor Augustus VIII as a reward, even if it was just a symbol, it could serve as proof of his identity as a commander. However, for the need of disguise, the commander of the Blomfield regional coalition, who was open to the public, was also fictionalized by Osta, and he made up General Omle. He was not the top leader, but just a deputy.

When Osta arrived at the commander's tent, the visitor had been waiting there for a long time. This was a beautiful woman with outstanding temperament. At first glance, she was the daughter of a famous family. Her elegant temperament could not be concealed in her every move. The beauty was estimated to be about 173cm tall, tall, well-proportioned and slim, with a well-proportioned model figure. She was about the same height as Osta, with pure golden soft hair that only reached her shoulders. Her hairstyle was short and smart. She wore a blue hairband on her head, and there was a small spiral braid on each side of her bangs. On her fair and dignified face, there was a pair of dark blue beautiful eyes, which sparkled with clever and cunning eyes. Her ears showed her hair on both sides, and under her earlobes she wore a pair of exquisite earrings made of pure gold, with a sapphire inlaid on the gold earrings.

This jewelry is an important basis for Osta to judge the other party's identity. He has heard from merchants in the human race's northern continent that this style of earrings is a private customized earring launched by a super jewelry chain store in the human race's northern continent. It is a genuine out-of-print product with a price tag. There are only a few pairs in total. Customers who can get the goods not only require financial resources, but also require a certain status. Ordinary rich people can't get it, let alone ordinary civilians.

The young lady's dress and matching style are still quite solid. After all, it is snowing outside. She wears a black and white jumpsuit. The upper body is mainly black, similar to the style of formal office dress. The lower body is a long skirt with white background and black buttons. She wears a pair of black high boots and a beautiful blue silk scarf on her snow-white neck. When the beauty met with Osta, she crossed her hands in front of her, without gloves, and looked rather restrained. She held a purple fan in her left hand. Despite the strict dress outside, a certain gentleman prince still relied on the unobstructed body outline to roughly estimate the highest peak above the socialite. The altitude size is about E level. The snow peak of that size is still very impressive. The beauty herself probably belongs to the type that looks thin without a coat.

After Osta arrived, the young lady didn't hesitate to hand Osta a document similar to a letter of introduction. Osta took a rough look at the content of the document. The other party's real name was Frenni, and she was the eldest daughter of the famous wealthy merchant family of the Principality of Dennis. The Foldalen family had been engaged in business for generations. They were originally overseas immigrants from the northern continent of the human race. They took root in the central continent and settled in Danpela City, the capital of the Principality of Dennis. It is said that because they could not compete with the emerging business groups in the northern continent, they could not grab the market from the opposite side. After the commercial war failed, they could only flee overseas, come to the central continent to rest, regroup, and secretly plot a comeback.

Frennie came here this time with an element of gambling. Going to the enemy's base camp in the war zone to meet the enemy commander was very dangerous. Fortunately, the army under a certain gentleman prince knew the preferences of their own patriarch. For the kind of visitors like beautiful girls, they secretly took care of them, so that Frennie could successfully reach the destination and meet Aosta. A subtle look flashed in the depths of the beautiful eyes of the young lady. It turned out that Aosta had just come out of the battlefield and didn't have time to tidy up. He put on his clothes and came here directly. There was still a lot of fragrance on his body, which was the product of the body fragrance or perfume of the girls, the smell left in the previous fierce battle. Frennie was a little curious. She smelled at least seven different aromas. Could it be that the prince had some abilities that were different from ordinary people, and could win with fewer people? In a one-on-seven situation, he was still full of energy and his face didn't look weak, which inevitably aroused Frennie's curiosity.

"Frennie, it's an honor to meet you. However, we are at war with the Principality of Dennis. It's still a state of war. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to come here to see the king without permission during the war! If you are discovered by someone who doesn't know the situation, they will mistakenly think you are collaborating with the enemy."

"Your Highness Aosta, you are joking. Merchants have no national boundaries and this has nothing to do with the state of war."

"Frennie, we are all busy people. If you have something to ask me, just tell me and we will get straight to the point."

"Your Highness Osta, you are a straightforward person, so I won't beat around the bush. I'm sure you know a lot about the situation in the Principality of Dennis. Since the Lord Earl Denfort came to power, the ethnic policy has been heavily tilted towards the indigenous people, the Dennis people."

"Frennie, I have indeed heard about this matter, but it seems to have nothing to do with me..."

"Your Highness Aosta, we overseas immigrants have been treated unfairly. We hope you can intervene with force to protect our rights."

"This... may be a little... too much. Our original intention of sending troops was just to reclaim the border... Besides, the commander in chief should be General Omlai. You have the wrong person."

"Your Highness, you will definitely benefit from it. Just name a price and we can talk it over. Isn't it the same if we talk to you? In the end, General Omley will still have to listen to your orders."

Chapter 85: The Rebellion of the High-ranking Border Troops of the Principality (Part 2)

————This chapter (10K)————

In the eastern border area of ​​the Blomfield region of the Central Continent, with the development of the Drangs Mountain War, the situation has changed more and more obviously. The Obelisk Empire is about to win the final victory and take full control of this dragon vein blessed land. The border guards of the Principality of Dennis are no match for them. Even with the geographical advantage of the highest peak in the region, the Alps, and the second highest peak, the Volgaren Mountains, they are still unable to stop the attack of the Blomfield region coalition forces. The other side has an army of more than 600,000 people, while the total number of troops on the garrison side is only about 80,000. The total number of troops on both sides differs by more than six times, and there is no way for them to compete with each other.

Especially in terms of military commanders, Osta also had an absolute advantage. The beautiful matriarchs and leaders of the primitive tribes of the Sarahanim were all good fighters, far stronger than the five generals under Rebel. On the first day, they broke through the first line of defense of the defenders and pushed the front line to the central defense zone. They captured the Bain Fortress and the Gorenz Fortress, breaking through the defenders' defense front line. On the second day, they broke through the Truk Fortress and attacked the Bellant Fortress with all their strength. As long as this important military stronghold was broken, the defenders' second line of defense would also be completely declared collapsed.

During this special and sensitive period, the sudden visit of Frennie, the eldest lady, was somewhat unexpected by Lord Aosta and was a variable outside the plan of this gentleman prince. The Fordalen family, to which Frennie belonged, was a family with a long history of doing business. In the Principality of Dennis, they were a well-known wealthy family, with a wealth of wealth that rivaled that of a country. The Fordalen family came not long after the Principality of Dennis was established. It had only been a few years since the founding of the country, and they moved to the capital of the Principality of Dennis, the city of Danpela, and settled there. It has a history of more than 50 years.

When the first two generations of Lords of the Duchy of Denforest were in power, the ethnic policy was slightly inclined towards the natives of the Duchy of Denforest, the local Denis tribe, and the rights of the locals were prioritized. When the current Lord, Earl of Denfort, came to power, the ethnic policy changed. He overturned many of his father's policies. The ethnic policy prioritized the rights of overseas immigrants and then considered the indigenous people.

The root of this policy change also has many helpless reasons. The local indigenous people, the local Danis tribe, have poor productivity. Long-term discrimination has made overseas immigrants unwilling to share their advanced production technology with the indigenous people. These overseas immigrants mainly come from the northern continent of the human race. They have an innate contempt for people from other continents. Many technologies have been spread only by relying on the official forced promotion of the lords, but the results are not very ideal and far from the expected results.

After years of development, the productivity of the indigenous Denis people still cannot be improved. According to the original ethnic preferential policy, the indigenous Denis people have to bear very few taxes and enjoy preferential policies in all aspects. The principle of paying less or no taxes is adhered to. The main tax bearers of the Principality of Denis are overseas immigrants, and most of the fiscal revenue is provided by overseas immigrants. Those who pay less taxes enjoy various preferential welfare policies, and those who pay more taxes do not get the fair treatment they deserve. Over time, ethnic conflicts will inevitably arise. As time goes by, they are constantly planned and brewed. Sooner or later, they will explode and become the fuse for the split of the Principality of Denis.

"Your Highness Aosta, I am going on a long journey this time, so I cannot be too conspicuous. I did not bring any expensive gifts, only this little token of my appreciation. I hope you will not despise it."

"Frennie, this pair of earrings is a limited edition. They can only be customized in the Northern Continent. I can't accept them. It's more suitable for you to wear them."

"Your Highness Aosta, you actually know the products of the Northern Continent?"

"Frennie, the king has dealings with people from the Northern Continent, all of which are business matters."

"Your Highness Osta, you are really different. As far as I know, most of the royal nobles of the human race in the Western Continent do not have much good feelings towards the merchants in the Northern Continent."

"Frennie, I value profit more. As long as there is benefit, it is not bad to make money in business. Not to mention the merchants from the Northern Continent, even if it is the slave traders from the Southern Continent, if there is profit, I can still cooperate with them."

The atmosphere of the meeting between Osta and Frennie was friendly, as if they were business partners who had known each other for many years and were discussing business. The young lady felt much more relaxed. Before meeting the gentleman prince, she was still a little worried. If Osta was like most of the royal nobles in the human race's western continent and looked down on the merchants in the human race's northern continent, then she would have to spend more time to build a good relationship with the other party. If Osta had a good impression of her, it would save a lot of unnecessary trouble.

According to Frenni, since the current lord, Count Denfort, took office, he realized the existence of this sharp ethnic conflict. It is estimated that if no changes and adjustments are made, it is very likely to explode during his tenure. Therefore, Count Denfort formulated a new reform policy for ethnic issues and issued a series of reform measures. The previous policy of driving the troublemakers and disobedient people among overseas immigrants to the border Dranges Mountains, building illegal settlements and immigrant areas there, and carrying out unified resettlement has proven to be a failure. Not only did it fail to solve the problem of ethnic conflicts from the root, it also intensified the border situation and inadvertently provided the neighboring Obelisk Empire with the best excuse to send troops to attack, giving the other side a legitimate reason to go to war.

The new ethnic policy reform of Earl Denfort mainly adjusted taxes, abolished the tax preferential policies for the indigenous people and the tribes of the Denis, reduced the tax payment amount for overseas immigrants, unified the tax collection standards for both, and achieved equality for everyone. The original intention of this policy was good, and it was supported by many overseas immigrants. However, the corresponding disadvantages were also obvious, which caused dissatisfaction among the Denis people. After enjoying the ethnic preferential policies of two generations of lords, these members of the indigenous tribal clans felt that the welfare benefits brought by the original policies were what they deserved and were taken for granted. As a result, they were all ruthlessly deprived by the new lord, Earl Denfort, which was the beginning of persecution and exploitation of local indigenous peoples.

In the end, the new policy was not pleasing to both sides. The Denis people were not very motivated to pay taxes, and delays and refusal to pay taxes were common. Earl Denfort was also helpless. The tax revenue of the Denis people was not enough, and the tax on overseas immigrants was lowered. The new policy had just been introduced, and it was impossible to withdraw it so quickly. If so, it would be a slap in the face, and the lord's prestige and reputation would be ruined. In order to solve the problem of the imbalance of fiscal revenue and expenditure in the principality and the soaring deficit, Earl Denfort consulted with his trusted staff and came up with a more ingenious solution, which was to kill the fat sheep and transfer this part of the tax gap to the rich, so that the wealthy businessmen in the principality would pay the bill and fill this big hole.

As a businessman, what Frennie said might not be credible, but her statement that her family was persecuted by the new national policy was somewhat credible. According to the new policy standards, the tax standards for merchants in the Principality of Dennis have increased several times, including various commercial taxes, tariffs, and all kinds of tax items. They are unscrupulous and their behavior is too ugly. The tax standards are much higher than those for all overseas immigrants. The fiscal gap that needs to be filled is too large, and the lord, Earl Denfort, has to use this almost killing the chicken to get the eggs method to quickly make up for the fiscal deficit. Because it only targets wealthy businessmen, ordinary overseas immigrants are not affected, which indirectly divides overseas immigrants and does not cause opposition and resistance from all overseas immigrants.

Frennie had to save herself. The young lady risked collaborating with the enemy and ran to Aosta for help. As she said, merchants have no borders, only interests. The eye-catching performance of the Bloomfield coalition in the battle for the Dranges Mountains was also the key reason for this secret collaborating with the enemy. Frennie came prepared. She arrived in the area near the border in advance and secretly observed the changes in the war situation. The young lady saw with her own eyes that the Obelisk Imperial Army defeated the border guards of the Principality of Denforest in less than a day, and realized that this time it was safe. Therefore, she came to contact Aosta secretly in advance, hoping that the other party would intervene in the political situation of the Principality of Denforest by force. When the internal contradictions could not be reconciled and resolved, she could only hope that a third party from outside would take power and mediate.

"Your Highness Aosta, your country's military operations have been victorious. It is not a problem to attack Danpela City. I hope you can bring justice to us merchants."

"Frennie, the main purpose of our war this time is to regain sovereignty over the border area, the Dranges Mountains. It would be unacceptable to attack the capital of the Principality of Danforst again. I need to ask the Empire for instructions and seek the advice and support of my father."

“Your Highness Osta, the Principality of Dennis has detained your country’s legitimate merchants and seized merchant ships and cargo ships flying the flag of your Obelisk Empire. This is enough to start a war.

"Your Highness Osta, what are you still hesitating about? If you wait until you finish asking for instructions, you will miss the best opportunity. The persecution of merchants in Danpela City is getting worse and worse. We can't wait and see any longer."

"Frennie, I really admire your grasp of this information. Okay, I need some time to think about it. I will give you a reply when I have considered it."

"Your Highness Aosta, what kind of reward do you want in exchange for sending out troops? Please give me a clear indication."

"Frennie, I still have to command the battle on the front line and coordinate the attack on Alamos Castle. I'm afraid I can only give you an answer after the war. I need time to consider it carefully."

"Frennie, if you have something urgent to do, you can go back and wait for me to contact you. Of course, if you stay and wait for a reply, I will also arrange accommodation for you and provide special protection."

"Well, Your Highness Aosta, I will bother you for a while longer and wait for your reply. I wish you good luck in military affairs and a successful start."

Osta was quite experienced in dealing with merchants and handling these issues. He was not in a hurry to give Frannie an answer or make a promise. Instead, he adopted a cold treatment and let the rich merchant lady wait for a while before talking to her again. Merchants are very shrewd. When dealing with them and negotiating business, you need to be very cautious and careful to avoid being hurt. Frannie certainly saw that a certain gentleman prince was playing hard to get and was suspected of raising the price and trying to raise the reward. However, she had no choice. She couldn't point it out to her face. If she pointed it out, there would be no way to continue the discussion. It was almost the same as a public quarrel. After all, she was asking for help.

Miss Frennie would not go back either, but chose to stay and wait for Aosta's reply. It was much safer with the gentleman prince. The Principality of Dennis could not guarantee safety. Lord Earl Denfort ordered the surveillance of the wealthy merchants in the capital of the Principality, Danpela, on the grounds of wartime emergency. He claimed to be protecting them, but in fact he was monitoring them. Once any abnormal behavior was found, they would be charged with treason and various other crimes to confiscate their property. Frennie was a strong woman with courage. She escaped from the mansion alone in disguise. In order to conceal her tracks, she did not dare to bring her entourage. She escaped from Danpela alone and went to the neighboring overseas colony of the Obelisk Empire, the Bloomfield area, to seek support. The only one who dared to take care of this matter in the surrounding areas was the Obelisk Empire, the overlord of the human race in the western continent. The empire was warlike and was still in the rising stage of continuous external expansion and competition for sphere of influence.

Osta had no time to care about Frannie for the time being, and he didn't know what the young lady was thinking at the moment. The gentleman prince had just received news that his subordinates, the beautiful matriarchs of the primitive tribes of the Sarahanim people, and the "Crimson Blades", one of the elite special operations corps of the Obelisk Empire Army, led by the beautiful corps leader Red Devil Latia, had returned from the front line of the Dranges Mountains. The special operations operation was successful. They used various special means to "invite" back several special guests from the garrison positions and fortress castles of the Principality of Danforster and sent them to meet Osta.

When Osta turned to leave, he didn't notice that Frennie had put her hands on the top button, with a tendency to unbutton it. She might want to bribe a gentleman prince with a special reward to achieve the purpose of seeking help. In order to achieve the goal, the businessman will try all kinds of means. Frennie herself has a plan in that regard, but she just ranked this method last. Don't look at the fact that this young lady is dressed tightly and conservatively on the outside, giving people a sense of rigor and a very serious first impression. The thin underwear she wears inside is not an ordinary type, but a bold and open design of the decisive series. This young lady, Frennie is quite confident in her beauty, charm, and figure.

Osta left too quickly and didn't notice Frennie's little move. His special maid, Yulia, one of the three super-rule special beings, the stunning beauty with black hair and black eyes, noticed this little detail. She stopped and approached Frennie. On the surface, she was arranging accommodation for the young lady, but in fact, she was secretly giving her advice. I saw Yulia approached Frennie and whispered in her ear. I don't know what she was plotting. Frennie's face was a little embarrassed, as if she heard some incredible news. Chris and Sophia may have guessed what Yulia said. They smiled and walked past the two of them without saying anything. The three of them had a tacit understanding and would not interfere with each other. They maintained a special and delicate balance between each other.

Aosta returned to the temporary palace. It was still snowing outside the palace. Those special guests had been arranged to wait for Aosta. Although it was only a temporary palace, the decoration and layout in the palace were still very exquisite, not much different from the real palace. Although it was not luxurious, it felt elegant and grand. The gentleman prince was quite satisfied. He himself was not a person who paid much attention to luxury. It was enough to be nice, not too gorgeous. For Aosta, the priority was to have beautiful girls. It didn't matter if the palace was simple. The expenses in this regard could be saved.

"Rebecca, we meet again!"

"Your Highness Osta, you...you are too dishonest. The deadline is still three days away. How can you...how can you launch an attack in advance?"

"Rebecca, you can't blame me for this. You misunderstood. Most of the Bloomfield coalition forces on my side are commanded by General Omley. I just received the news and learned that they have begun to take action."

"Your Highness Osta, your explanation is too cunning. Isn't General Omlai your subordinate? The war has been going on for two days, and you just got the news now. What on earth do you want to..."

"Rebecca, don't get excited. Let's talk it out. There is always a way to resolve the conflict. You should know these young ladies. Can you introduce them to me?"

"Your Highness Aosta, you...Okay, this is..."

In the bedroom with the highest security level and the strictest guard in the temporary palace, Osta met Rebecca again. This silver-haired and red-eyed loli was still dressed the same way as when she came as a special envoy to negotiate peace with Osta. It was a military uniform with coffee as the main color, gold-rimmed decorations, gold epaulettes and cuffs, and a long skirt underneath.

Among the three female companions around Rebeth, two girls were dressed in the same style as Rebeth's military uniform. After Rebeth's introduction, these two were members of the Five Warriors under her sister Rebeth, "Blue Dragon" Ingrid and "Ice Blade" Edmona. It was normal for them to wear similar military uniforms. Their previous identities and positions were all fortress commanders. Unless there was a formal war, female generals usually liked to wear military uniforms instead of heavy armor like male generals. When these three ladies were brought back, the fortress was not in a state of war, so naturally they were not equipped with armor. They actually had special female armor.

Faced with Osta's sophistry, Rebes didn't know how to refute it for a while, so she could only introduce the people around her and follow the steps given by the gentleman prince. "Blue Dragon" Ingrid is estimated to be about 170CM tall, with a tall figure, a well-proportioned body, and a curvy figure. She has obvious otome attributes. Ingrid is a blonde beauty with pure golden soft shoulder-length hair, a standard long straight hairstyle, and her hair naturally falls back, and the length is close to her slender waist behind her. In order to prevent her long hair from affecting her movements during the battle, her long hair is fixed at the back with a cyan headband, similar to a long braid.

Ingrid's fair and round face still has a bit of childishness. She has a pair of turquoise eyes, which look like emeralds. The color of her eyes is the origin of her title. Ingrid's dressing style is the same military uniform as Rebecca's. The main body is coffee-colored, with a military uniform decorated with gold edges, a golden collar, eight black buttons evenly distributed in the front, and four on each side. The difference between her and Rebecca is that the logo pattern on the epaulette is different, which is equivalent to the military rank. Even if both of them are fortress commanders, the military rank is different, so the logo is naturally different.

Although Ingrid was wearing a tight military uniform, except for her hands without gloves, the rest of her body was almost covered, and not much skin could be seen. The long skirt below, the slender legs equipped with long boots, were matched with a pair of black silk stockings. The stockings belonged to the warm series, were not light-transmissive, and lacked luster. A certain gentleman prince still relied on his own experience and special skills accumulated in some special areas. After careful observation, he roughly estimated the altitude size of the lady's upper body to the peak area through the other party's body outline. It was about level D. The peaks of this size were still quite impressive, but they were covered by the thick military uniform, which added a bit of abstinence beauty. Ingrid had a good figure, and the clothes could not hide it.

Ingrid was brought back by the "Black Dragon" Onitana, and her profession was a Holy Spearman. Her personal signature weapon, the quasi-holy spear "Green Mang", was confiscated by Onitana and sent to other places in the palace as a trophy, and will be presented to Osta later. For safety reasons, Ingrid was not allowed to carry weapons with her, so that she would not use weapons to do something rude to the gentleman prince.

Ingrid's expression was a little stiff, as if she had not completely accepted defeat. After all, she was defeated by Onitana, not by Osta himself. When Rebeth introduced her, Ingrid crossed her arms in front of her chest and did not look at Osta well. Jiali's beautiful green eyes were full of vigilance. Osta did not mind Ingrid's cold attitude and seemed very generous. With the special experience of this gentleman prince, he had seen all kinds of girls and knew how to get along with them and how to conquer them. Ingrid's vigilant performance was still the type that could be easily cracked.

Osta naturally walked to the seat next to Ingrid and sat down next to her. Ingrid had never seen such a thick-skinned gentleman, so he was very familiar with her. When she wanted to move away, she found that the other party had attacked her without her knowing when, and gently grabbed the beauty's slender waist with one hand, and there was no way to move away. Ingrid didn't realize when Osta attacked her, and she was a little confused for a while. It seemed that the gentleman prince was not a passerby prince without any force, and he still had some fighting power. The hope of the beauty to find a chance to slip away became much slimmer, almost reduced to zero.

"Ingrid, you seem to have some misunderstanding about me, or are you prejudiced against my Obelisk Empire?"

"Prince Osta, that's not what I meant. A defeated general has nothing to say."

"Ingrid, do you think the Dranges Mountains belong to the Principality of Dennis? Let me put it another way. I want to know whether your country's occupation of the Dranges Mountains is legal?"

"Prince Osta, this... this issue was decided by the higher-ups. I'm a soldier, and I'm just... just following orders."

"Ingrid, your Truk Fortress has been breached by us, and most of the soldiers have fled. By the way, there are a few female adjutants who seem to have a good relationship with you, and they are also in my hands."

"Prince Osta, don't make things difficult for them. They are my junior schoolmates, not important military personnel."

"Ingrid, this depends on your attitude and performance as a senior."

After a conversation, Ingrid had nothing to say. After all, the fact that the Principality of Dennis occupied the border area and secretly controlled the Dranges Mountains was a fait accompli. They were in the wrong, and they lost the battle, so there was nothing to say. In front of others, Ingrid was embarrassed to admit defeat in person. She lowered her head and remained silent, which was considered as tacit agreement. Osta captured several beautiful women in the army of this lady, and the female officers of the young faction of Truk Fortress. With these junior sisters as special bargaining chips, it was not a problem to control this senior sister. The difficulty was greatly reduced and it could be easily controlled.

After Osta had done some ideological work on Ingrid, he temporarily let her think about what she had done. The gentleman prince changed his target and looked at the other side, where he saw the "Ice Blade" Edmona, who was sitting not far away. The beauty was estimated to be about 168cm tall, with a thin figure, a moderate body shape, and a well-proportioned body contour curve, which was also the attribute of a maiden. Edmona was a blue-haired beauty, with pure blue silky shawl hair, a standard long straight hairstyle, and her hair naturally draped back, the length of which could reach the slender waist behind her. In order to avoid being affected by her long hair during battle, she specially coiled her long hair on the back of her head, which looked more refreshing and capable. There was a braid on her head passing horizontally, a flat and symmetrical bangs on her forehead, and small braids of pure blue hair hanging down on both sides of her cheeks.

Edmona's snow-white face has delicate facial features, giving people the impression of being dignified and beautiful at first glance. The color of her beautiful eyes is not sea blue, which is inconsistent with her hair color, but dark gold. After noticing that Osta's eyes were looking in this direction, Edmona placed her hands in front of her uneasily, with her left hand gently supporting her chin in front of her, and her right hand fiddling with her braids, looking a little shy.

Edmona's outfit is naturally the same as Rebecca's, a military uniform of similar style. The main body is coffee-colored, with accessories decorated with gold edges, a golden collar and cuffs, eight buttons evenly distributed in the front, and four black buttons on each side. She also has a long skirt underneath, and her exposed slender feet are equipped with long combat boots. She matches them with a pair of white silk stockings, which are warm stockings, opaque, and have no gloss. This beauty has no gloves on her hands, and you can see her white and tender hands and slender jade fingers. The golden epaulettes on Edmona's shoulders are the same as Ingrid's epaulettes. These two ladies are members of the Five Warriors under Rebecca, and are both fortress commanders. Their military ranks are at the same level, so the epaulette patterns are naturally the same.

After careful observation, Osta, with his special experience accumulated from countless beauties, compared the body contours and found that Edmona's figure was even better than Ingrid's. The height of the lady's upper body from the front to the peak area was about E level. The size of her breasts was a level larger than her bestie's. She also had a sense of abstinence. If the figure was very curvy, clothes could not restrict or cover it. It had to be admitted that the uniforms of the female generals of the Danforster Principality Army also had a unique potential astringency and charm from some special aspects. Rebes could not wear that feeling, mainly because this girl was too petite and belonged to the category of cute lolita. She did not have enough hardware conditions to control that kind of beauty, unlike her two female subordinates, whose body conditions could be easily met and reached that standard.

Edmona's title comes from her profession as an ice swordsman. The exclusive weapon she uses, "Ice Death", is an ice magic blade with a cold attribute. She was brought back by the beautiful commander of the "Crimson Blade" Legion, one of the elite special operations corps of the Obelisk Empire Army, "Red Devil" Latia. With the help of the super black technology support provided by "Mechanical Angel" Salia, Latia used the capture ball to achieve a lossless capture. Otherwise, she would not have been able to subdue Edmona so quickly. After the "Ice Death" was confiscated, Edmona would not be able to exert her combat effectiveness.

Compared to Ingrid, Edmona was not so cold and alert. Her dark golden eyes were full of exploration. She was carefully observing Osta, as if she wanted to see the true character of this gentleman prince. When Osta reached out to hold Edmona's slender waist, the lady did not resist. She even leaned towards Osta and sat next to him. The fact that he did not send these prisoners to prison made Edmona feel that Osta's character was not too bad. Among the royal family members of the Obelisk Empire, he was at least not a very outrageous prince.

"Edmona, you don't seem nervous at all?"

"Aosta... Your Highness, your words and actions so far have shown that you are a qualified gentleman. I have nothing to worry about."

"Edmona, you can't just look at one side of a person. It's inappropriate to jump to conclusions so quickly."

"Your Highness Aosta, I always trust my intuition and judgment."

"Well, Edmona, what do you think is the best way for me to deal with you? I am very interested in this aspect."

"Your Highness Aosta, I'm afraid you already have the answer to this question in your mind, so there's no need to ask for anyone's opinion. As long as it helps to promote peace and save the lives of my soldiers, I don't mind paying some price."

Edmona is much calmer than Ingrid, and is good at analysis. Even when she was captured, she did not lose her composure. These two beautiful military commanders are not very loyal to the Principality of Dennis. To be precise, their real allegiance is to the sisters Rebel and Rebes. The Principality of Dennis does not pay much attention to the treatment of border guards. For so many years, it still pays according to the salary when the country was founded, completely ignoring the price changes and other reasons. For more than 50 years, it has been a standard monthly salary. The sisters Rebel and Rebes treat their subordinates well and have personal charm. Edmona and Ingrid insisted on staying because of their close friendship. Otherwise, they would have found another way out long ago.

Osta did not immediately state his real purpose, but took out a few lists and handed them to the girl next to him. This list was an introduction to the military benefits in Bloomfield, detailing the salaries for each level and different positions. There was nothing to say about the benefits. The price Osta offered was far higher than the standard of the Principality of Dennis, and even the standard of the Obelisk Imperial Army was incomparable. The gentleman prince privately raised the standard of benefits, paying three times the salary of the Obelisk Imperial Army. Moreover, out of selfishness, the female generals would have an additional considerable income in the name of "makeup fees".

Edmona and Ingrid finished reading the list at almost the same time. They put down the flyers with subtle expressions on their faces. Several of Ingrid's schoolmates were controlled by the other party and had weaknesses. Even if the other party did not offer high salary and preferential conditions, they could easily control this lady. Edmona was different. Her Bemzite Fortress was still alive and had not been captured, so she had bargaining power. Aosta's recruitment conditions were far beyond the normal level, especially the high-priced makeup subsidy, which was specially issued to female generals. Edmona felt a little strange. Such a high extra income seemed like a sponsorship. The sense of déjà vu was too strong to be ignored.

Rebes also saw the flyer, and her expression became much more interesting. They actually poached people in front of their current boss. How abominable. The welfare and treatment standards of the army of the Principality of Dennis are incomparable to those of the gentleman prince. Osta gave too much. If it were someone else, most of the soldiers of the border garrison of the Principality of Dennis would never refuse this recruitment. Edmona and Ingrid are close friends, so it is not so easy for them to betray. I am afraid that the other party will use some tricks and new tricks again.

"Prince Osta, please don't make things difficult for them. I am their boss's sister and I will take full responsibility."

"Rebecca, the treatment I offer here is not bad, right? I have no other intentions, I just want to recruit some beautiful subordinates."

"Prince Osta, there are some things that cannot be measured by money."

"Rebecca, what you said is indeed moral, but I can add money. Besides, when I conquer the Dranges Mountains, you will not be able to escape."

"Prince Osta, are you...are you threatening me?"

"Rebecca, I'm just telling the truth. The specific battle will be led by General Omlai. He is the commander-in-chief. Even if we take down Danpela, the capital of your principality, it will have nothing to do with me."

"Prince Aosta, don't get excited. Calm down."

Osta was fearless and had full control of the scene. Rebes could not find any reason to refute. The border guards of the Principality of Dennis were doomed and the time of defeat was sooner than expected. Her sister Rebel's original battle plan and related plans were to try to delay the war for a month, or at least half a month. However, when the war really started, even holding out for a week was a luxury. The defense line of the defenders was close to collapse in less than three days, and it was not far from a complete collapse. The continuous military failures put Rebes in a passive position and lacked the capital to bargain with the gentleman prince.

The Blomfield coalition began to attack the Bellandt Fortress with all its might, gathering more than 200,000 troops, intending to break through the second line of defense of the border guards of the Principality of Dennis and further suppress the strategic defense depth of the defenders. With the previous reconnaissance intelligence data, this round of attack was even more fierce, the military pressure faced by the defenders doubled, and the number of casualties rose rapidly. In the face of such a dilemma, the defender "Iron Man" Richard still held on and refused to retreat, as if he was determined to live and die with the fortress.

The capital of the Principality of Dennis, Danpela City, was still a peaceful scene, and was completely unaware of the threat of war. The Lord, Earl Denfort, was still unaware of the emergency at the border. His important trusted subordinates, Baron Breda and Viscount Kuros, who had been friends since childhood and were obviously bad friends, deceived their superiors and subordinates, and almost cut off all the military intelligence reports and expedited documents sent by Rebel, deliberately reporting good news but not bad news, and deliberately whitewashing the situation. There is no magic crystal ball connection between the border and the capital. After all, the cost is too high and the maintenance cost is huge. Therefore, the main daily contact and relevant information transmission between the two are completed by letters, which gives them a lot of room for manipulation.

Baron Breda is in charge of finances and serves as the treasurer, in charge of the financial power of the Principality of Dennis. Viscount Kuros serves as the Knight Commander of the Principality, responsible for the dispatch of all garrisons in the capital of the Principality, Danpela. In the past, when the "Night Witch" Kavna was there, she could restrain these two incompetent ministers a little and balance the delicate relationship between the three ministers. Now, after Kavna mysteriously lost contact and disappeared completely and was kidnapped by a gentleman prince, no one came to take care of Baron Breda and Viscount Kuros. They just started to act. After Kavna resigned, the supervisory position was vacant, and they were unable to stop the pig teammates from playing badly and selling out their teammates. Their personal abilities are far inferior to those of the female general Rebel stationed at the border. They are veritable pig teammates. Not only do they not help, but they also secretly trip them up.

In the city lord's mansion, Lord Denfort stayed in a room with a warm fireplace. Since the strange snowfall that swept across the entire Central Continent, the capital of the Principality of Dennis, Danpela City, was not spared and was currently in a special environment of snow. Count Denfort summoned Baron Breda and Viscount Kuros. The three high-ranking officials of the principality gathered around a round table to discuss important matters of the territory. On the surface, they seemed to be happy and getting along well, but in fact, they were in a state of disharmony. Baron Breda and Viscount Kuros each had their own little calculations and were not of the same mind with Count Denfort. Once the situation was not right, they could run away at any time. Selling out teammates was an inevitable choice. This result was doomed from the beginning.

"There has been no news from the Dranges Mountains recently. Could it be that the barbarians have already withdrawn?"

"Brother Denfort, this is certain. Those barbarians, what kind of fighting power can they have? The army of more than 100,000 people is just exaggerated. There is nothing to be afraid of."
