I, the yellow-haired noble, hypnotize the beautiful wife from another world

Then, he relied on the Order Society and the Church of the Goddess of Light to spread the news of the collusion between the Phoenix Family and the Jade Empire, and put on a cloak of justice for his next actions.

"We will go south first. Once the propaganda campaign has taken effect, we will remove the Phoenix family from the royal family in one fell swoop. All the territories they control will be incorporated into the royal family's direct territory."

Aslan said proudly: "The same goes for the southern city-states. If they know what's best for them, let them exist for a while longer. If they don't, let them know the power of the King's Army!!"

"Oh oh oh."

When the Queen heard what Aslan said, she cheered happily. On the other side, Lady Melissa couldn't help but frown, looking distrustful. She felt that Aslan had gone too far. It wasn't that simple.

Even with the support of Aslan's 5,000 elite troops, the war in the south was only 50-50, or 40-60. It would be a difficult and long process to defeat Duke Darkus.

But anyway, this is a good thing.

Rather than letting Aslan lead his army to fight the most powerful and terrifying dark elves in the world, it would be better to let him show his skills in the civil war of the Golden Eagle Empire.

That’s what she thought in her heart.

After all, now Aslan has become her white moonlight and cinnabar mole. In the short term, she still loves Aslan very much. She is in love and wants to do this and that with him.

What was unexpected was that after all the public opinion systems had nailed Duke Darkus to the pillar of shame in history, Aslan could actually shatter and disintegrate the powerful forces of the Phenex family in such a short period of time.

Chapter 4: Aslan, the Invincible God of War

It was the end of summer in 1002. Aslan's elite Crusaders marched south at an unimaginably fast speed and arrived at the battlefield of the civil war that was currently at war.

At this moment, the war between the Phinex rebels and the Griffin royal army has been going on for about half a year. The two sides tested each other, won and lost, and finally reached a stalemate. In a short period of time, the two sides, fearing each other, did not launch another attack. Instead, they accumulated troops and built fortresses to prepare for the next battle.

……

When the 5,000 fresh troops of the Crusaders arrived at the southern battlefield, the veteran Griffin General Hardaway von Griffin, who was currently in charge of the front, attached great importance to this army. Of course, he did not attach much importance to it.

These 5,000 elite troops could be a very good force that could even influence the outcome of a battle at a critical moment. However, on a battle line that stretched for hundreds of kilometers and surrounded dozens of cities and castles, with hundreds of thousands of troops concentrated on it, the number of 5,000 troops was really nothing.

So when the old general Hardaway heard that Aslan wanted to fight after arriving here, he thought that the young man was courageous, but he was still too impetuous and did not take it too seriously:

"I understand your desire for battle, but please wait a little longer, Lord Aslan."

Although Aslan's highest title at this moment should be the commander-in-chief of the Crusades and the Grand Master of the Knights, for the old-school nobles, the Crusades and the Northern Territory were all meaningless things. What really mattered was Aslan's title within the Golden Eagle Empire.

Aslan's highest title in the Golden Eagle Empire is Earl. He is also the Prime Minister of the Norse Family. Although strictly speaking, the Norse Family, which is considered a rising star in the Golden Eagle Empire, is not as good as the old nobles who have been passed down for thousands of years. But at least it is more orthodox than some inexplicable Grand Master.

By the way, Aslan's family background was insufficient, which was one of the reasons why the old general looked down on Aslan. Of course, at least on the surface, he would not show this attitude.

Of course, of course. Then, when Aslan said that perhaps a small-scale battle could be used to boost morale, the old general rejected it without hesitation.

He still adhered to his previous battle decision and would never take action unless he had a complete advantage.

If Aslan could mobilize all his Crusaders, it would be another matter. But if there are only 5,000 elite soldiers now, then it is another matter.

This made Aslan somewhat unhappy. But he had no choice - after all, 5,000 elite troops were not enough to conquer the world, he needed Griffin and the 100,000 troops of the loyal lords of the empire to help him. Even if it was just to fill in the gaps, it would be fine.

However, Aslan could not directly command the army, and the old general Hadaway would not let Aslan manipulate him.

——Of course, of course, as the commander-in-chief of the Crusaders rather than a vassal of the empire, Aslan actually did not need to obey the old general's orders.

After thinking about it, the boy decided to divide his troops.

Five thousand of the most elite Crusaders left the imperial camp, making Hadavi so angry that he started cursing. But he could do nothing about it.

Over the next ten days or so, the old general was slapped in the face in various ways.

first day:

"What? He left. Humph, in a few days this guy will get bruised all over in the enemy's defense line and come back in disgrace."

The third day:

"What? He broke through the enemy's defenses and rushed into the Dukedom of Solderland? Humph, how reckless! The enemy had an army of more than 100,000 soldiers in the inner line, and he jumped into the enemy's encirclement. It's a pity that the 5,000 elite soldiers were dragged down by him."

The fifth day:

"What?! That guy actually took down South Fort?! Are you kidding me?! Giant dragons, giant siege cannons, and tunnel blasting technology?! What the hell is that? South Fort is the rebels' logistics base! Doesn't that mean——"

After knocking over the chair, the old general looked at the map with unbelievable eyes. He didn't know what to say for a moment, and his expression was very complicated: "It's terrible, Aslan. He actually changed the direction of the entire war by himself. If this person is harmful to our Griffin family..."

……

After Aslan broke through the defenses of the Phoenix Legion at an unimaginable speed, and then easily destroyed the Phoenix Alliance's most important logistics hub fortress, burning or destroying the large amount of food, weapons, and logistics supplies stored there, the balance of victory and defeat of this war spun towards the Griffin family at an extremely fast speed.

The elite main force of the Phoenix Legion, which had lost its logistical supplies, could still hold on for the time being. However, the vassal troops had already been attacked by a wave of public opinion, saying that they were the dogs of the dark elves and human traitors. When they were upset, they heard that their retreat was intercepted by the Crusaders, and their morale was instantly shaken, and then they prepared to retreat.

Once these vassal troops were defeated, the originally strong battle line instantly became riddled with holes.

Old General Hardaway was no idler, he immediately seized upon these loopholes and launched an offensive as quickly as possible, dividing and encircling many enemy forces. Many enemies were defeated, and many others, seeing the bad situation, chose to surrender without hesitation, or even turned against the empire: "We have long been loyal subjects of the empire!" or "We have long been humanists!" and turned against their former allies.

Sometimes, two groups of people chose to surrender and defect at the same time, and both sides ended up shouting "I am a humanist!" and then started fighting. Halfway through the fight, they realized something was wrong and started to curse at each other: "How can you be called an Aslanist? I am an Aslanist!" "Are you kidding? I am an Aslanist!" "I am!" "I am!" I was an Aslanist when I was eight years old!" "I was one in my previous life!" The scene was quite embarrassing.

In short, after this battle, the Southern Army of more than 100,000 soldiers were defeated. The carefully constructed defenses, the large amount of supplies, the solid fortresses, and the sufficient troops were all gone. The Phoenix family was seriously injured. The Griffin family won a great victory. As the vanguard of the Griffin Orthodox Coalition and the commander who performed the best in this battle, Aslan's name as the God of War became more and more famous.

More people regarded him as the best commander and general in the world, and placed infinite hopes on him, especially the wasteland forces that were increasingly unable to cope with the heavy pressure from the Jade Empire.

While the civil war was going on in the Golden Eagle Empire, the expeditionary force of the Jade Empire was also advancing rapidly in the Beast Tide Wasteland.

Although the Empire's expeditionary force could not swallow the entire Beast Tide Wasteland in one go due to poor infrastructure, insufficient supplies, and the Beast Tide Wasteland being too large, their pretense of conquering the entire wasteland still frightened countless people. They even felt that the end of the world was coming.

In this situation, even a straw would be grasped desperately. What about the world's best commander and his 5,000 elite soldiers?

Those guys who had spoken rudely to Aslan and told him to go home and suckle now all made a 180-degree turn and sent messengers to Aslan's camp crying, hoping that the Crusaders would quickly send a million troops to kill all the evil dark elves and restore order to the wasteland.

Chapter 5: The Red and White Face of the Black Magic Girl

"Ning is the savior of mankind."

"We are all counting on you now."

"Only you can save the world and defeat those dark elves!"

"Save us, great Aslan."

……

These guys knelt down in front of Aslan one by one and begged bitterly.

But history is ultimately a ruthless thing.

The ignorant may think that Shen Baoxu cried and begged for Qin's reinforcements to save the country after watching the Peking Opera of crying in the Qin court. But in fact, all people with normal judgment know that the reason why Qin rescued Chu was ultimately out of a balancing policy, and did not expect a more powerful kingdom to appear in its south and pose an excessive strategic threat to itself.

The same is true of Aslan now.

Although they were full of confidence before this, and their tone was very high, saying that they were the vanguard of the human world, and that they would enter the beast wasteland and fight desperately with the dark elves.

But now, looking at this messenger who really treated him as a fool, Aslan felt disgusted in his heart.

Ah, well, yes, that’s right, but where is your sincerity?

Do you really want me to fight the dark elves to the death with all your might?

Where are the benefits? Where is the money? Where is the trade agreement? Where is the commercial benefit? There is no benefit at all. Are you really going to bully others based on your faith? !

……

Aslan complained wildly in his heart, and even felt a little regretful. He wondered if he had raised his tone too high and these people really believed it.

But that’s okay. In this case, it’s time for the old wisdom of the University of Tokyo to come into play.

Aslan pretended to trust them and empathize with them, nodded and was about to agree. At this moment, a voice came from his side: "Grandmaster, please wait a moment."

This was a cold, ruthless, cruel, but pleasant voice. In an instant, it brought everyone back to the real world from the sacred story of the noble mission. Everyone turned their heads to look at the woman with a doll-like hairstyle, a gloomy face, and a look that made her look difficult to mess with.

Her name is Raven. She is a genius black magician next to Aslan. Some people claim that her strength has reached the legendary level, but many people are skeptical. After all, not everyone in the world is Aslan. It seems that there are only two or three chosen ones like him who have easily obtained legendary strength in an era. Maybe the black magic girl is not that kind of genius.

But this is not the point now. The point is that she now speaks to calm Aslan down: "The Crusaders' current focus is to eliminate the rebellion in the south. They are deeply connected with the dark elf world. Compared to the unimportant Beast Tide Wasteland, the Empire is the most important."

Her words made the faces of the envoys from the Beast Tide Wasteland present become extremely ugly.

They wanted to protest loudly, but this era was not like America in the 21st century, where people could lie with open eyes. They could not say that the Beast Tide Wasteland was more important than the Golden Eagle Empire. They only claimed that they were facing the elite troops of the Dark Elves. And now Aslan was fighting against the Imperial Army that was in collusion with the Dark Elves. The comparison between the two was not much different.

"What's more, after this round of victory, the demise of the Phoenix family is just around the corner. Wouldn't it be better for us to hand over the secondary battlefield to the Golden Eagle Empire and then lead the Crusaders into the Beast Tide Wasteland?"

It must be said that this statement is not without reason from a strategic perspective. After seeing that playing the emotional card is useless, these envoys can still say something that is pleasing to the ear.

Unfortunately, this may work for Aslan's disguised personality. But the cold and indifferent dark strategist also has his own theory:

"The war with the dark elves is long, prolonged and cruel. What we must do first is to ensure that we will not be defeated. Then we can seek victory.

The most correct and necessary thing is to consolidate the Golden Eagle Empire internally, reunite the Golden Eagle Empire, consolidate the core areas of the human world, mobilize all the resources here, and make due contributions to this war.

As for the Beast Tide Wasteland, we can wait for a while. After all, even if the dark elves occupy part of the territory of the Beast Tide Wasteland, they will not be able to extract too many resources from the Beast Tide Wasteland in a short period of time. "

After the word "resources" was brought up, some of the envoys on the other side seemed to have some understanding, while others who were slower to react were shouting:

"Our territory is not barren, it is very rich! Have you forgotten the purpose of the Crusades? You claim to open up new territories for humans! How many people can a barren land like the North support? The Beast Tide Wasteland is the future of mankind!"

Hearing these fools say such words, the faces of the other messengers around changed, and they couldn't help but reach out to cover the mouths of these fools and tell them to stop talking. But unfortunately, it didn't work.

After the fools said this, they came to their senses and their faces turned a little ugly, as if they understood a little.

It is easier to invite a god than to send him away. What if the Crusaders refuse to leave the Beast Tide Wasteland and start a massive immigration expansion in the name of expanding human territory?

At that time, the Poles and Lithuanians were troubled by the fighting between each other, so they welcomed the Teutonic Knights to enter the Baltic region. The original intention was that everyone was Catholic and could help fight against the pagans - we all know what the final result was.

Most of the forces that have been able to support the Beast Tide Wasteland to this day have backers and foundations. However, facing the Crusaders, who have two near-gods and an entire powerful country and order society organization, and seem to be in the heyday, all forces pale in comparison.

"Yes, the Beast Tide Wasteland does have great potential. However, whether the Crusaders can develop this potential and make them part of the human order is another matter."

She said these words calmly and coldly: "What's more, fighting for the Empire is not only fighting for the interests of mankind, the Empire will also give the Crusaders a lot of benefits."

"From territorial interests to commercial interests, logistical supplies and mercenaries, the Empire has given sufficient concessions. It is because of this that the Knights are able to thrive."

Aslan couldn't help but shout at this: "We Crusaders don't fight for benefits!"

"But you can't let the soldiers fight the enemy with empty stomachs and empty hands, right?"

Chapter 6: The obvious card turned against me

That was basically it. After playing double duty with Riven, the envoys present also basically understood. If they wanted the Crusaders to help them, they also needed benefits.

After confirming this, everyone calmed down.

Although they could also unreasonably yell, "You are the messenger of justice, how can you ask for money?" But just like what Riven said, the messenger of justice also needs to eat, and can't just use a stick to fight against the dark elf army armed to the teeth.

Of course, there is another option: "Can't you Crusaders bring your own food and pay for the battle for us?"

Of course, of course, the people of the Beast Wasteland cannot say such bastard words so confidently... Although some Israelis may be able to do it, it is obvious that the residents of the Beast Wasteland are not Jews.

"At least he hasn't come charging in first with all the moral righteousness in his voice, then stabbed us in the back and killed us all."

In the end, the messengers from the Beast Tide Wasteland could only say this in a way that made the best of their situation.

Yes, that's right. Aslan also thought about whether to try this trick, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that doing so would be too damaging to his character, so he gave up.

……

In this way, relying on the double-act skills with Riven, Aslan temporarily alleviated the rescue crisis in the Beast Wasteland.

How should I describe the current situation in the Beast Tide Wasteland? It is indeed very bad, but that is all. It is like the frontal battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War. It is like exchanging space for time, and then waiting for America's biological father to come to rescue.

It's just that the city-state forces in the Beast Tide Wasteland are indeed more competitive than the 100-year-old rotten party. After confirming that the Crusaders will not come back to take care of them for the time being, and the dark elf army is coming with great momentum, they decided to form an alliance again and continue to fight the other side.

Nearly 100,000 troops were reorganized in the shortest possible time and, risking their lives, they once again advanced towards the Krim Peninsula.

……

"Hope they are happy. All we can do in this situation is wish them well." According to Aslan's idea, the most important thing to do in the Beast Tide Wasteland now is to use a modified version of the Fabian tactics, using scorched earth and small guerrillas to increase the loss of the dark elves, and eventually force the dark elves to leave.

But unfortunately, none of the guys in the Beast Tide Wasteland were willing to use such advanced tactics, and they were reluctant to give up their own belongings.

Of course they also had something to say. They said that Aslan was a well-fed man who did not know the hunger of a hungry man. He had earned so much, so of course it was fine. But they only had so little property and they were hoping to pass it on to their children and grandchildren, so it was absolutely not okay.

Although Aslan wanted to complain that if this situation continued, your descendants would be mixed with the dark elves and become the dark elves' licking dogs and half-elves, and what's the point of spreading chicken feathers, he could only think about it in his heart and couldn't say it out loud, because it was too hurtful to his self-esteem.

……

"Let's leave it at that for now - are the Maldero people still unwilling to cooperate with us?"

It is not possible to enter the Beast Tide Wasteland directly for the time being, but the preliminary preparations cannot be stopped, so more forward bases are needed.

The best forward base is of course Maldello, which is opposite the southern side of the Ice Harbor Fjord. There are deep-water ports there, and the Crusaders have a complete grasp of the hydrological characteristics. If a port can be built there, then future logistics will be easier.

But unfortunately, the people of Malderos were unwilling to do so. The reason for their unwillingness was, of course, that they were worried that the Crusaders would take over their position.

Maldello's diplomatic envoy said:

"We are responsible for the logistics of the Crusaders. Is there anything that the Crusaders cannot trust?"

Of course I can't trust it. No one would agree to let something like the logistics line be controlled by outsiders.

So the two sides are still arguing and cannot reach an agreement in a short time.
