On the east side of the Knowles family, the acquisition of those small plots of real estate was relatively smooth. Some small lords took the money and went to the safe zone to continue their life of luxury. Some other small lords swore allegiance to the Knowles family and became vassals of the Knowles family. In the end, some small lords chose to resist. Those with bad reputations were directly killed in the name of justice, and those with good reputations were killed by assassins.
With such soft and hard tactics, the Knowles family gradually expanded their territory in the east. Some places were already close to the Beast Tide Wasteland, and they could send adventurers, pioneers and colonial teams to establish colonies in the direction of the Beast Tide Wasteland.
At another point, the Crusaders had opened up a path into the Beast Tide Wasteland. Next, some of the refugees from all over the world would fill the North Territory, and the rest would enter the Beast Tide Wasteland.
This situation made some of the nearby small wasteland forces and the medium-sized Maldro feel threatened and pressured, but they were powerless - after all, most of the energy and attention of the Beast Tide Wasteland was now focused on the dark elves in the south. There was no way to form a coalition against the Crusaders.
……
In the summer of 02, the situation in the Beast Tide Wasteland was developing in a very strange way, and no one knew what the situation would become.
……
Then, let’s talk about the Southern Front.
The Solderan defense line was breached, and the army of more than 100,000 was almost wiped out, with only 10,000 or 20,000 small Karami running back. At the same time, his reputation became infamous because of the agreement with the dark elves. At this moment, Duke Darkus looked like a dead man in a tomb.
Logically speaking, this civil war should have been over by now. Duke Darkos could either surrender and be exiled, or be killed by the hundreds of thousands of Griffin troops. There was no third option.
But. No.
"Dark elf...?"
After reuniting with old General Hardaway, Aslan received the latest news.
The Duke did not collapse or surrender, but continued to hold on.
The motivation and strength that supported him to go on was a legion of dark elves that came from the Falling Star Sea by sea.
Aren't you always spreading rumors about me, saying that I've become a hard-working slave of the dark elves? ! I'll just turn against you! That's me! What can you do with me? !
Duke Darkus, who announced this mercilessly and declared that he would rely on the power of the Dark Elves to rule the entire Golden Eagle Empire by force and then achieve "permanent peace" with the Dark Elves, actually gained a foothold!
Although it is regrettable, not everyone is steadfast and brave enough to fight evil to the end.
The dark elves were so powerful and terrifying. If Darkus really clung to the dark elves, then joining this guy and following him to gain wealth and fame wouldn't be a wrong choice, right? !
Especially the commercial city-states in the south. Their trade with the Jade Empire is deeper, and their economic ties with the Jade Empire are deeper. It is precisely because of this that after Duke Darkes directly announced that he was a vassal of the dark elves, the southern city-states that were beaten by the Crusaders and had the intention to retreat had to increase their investment in Darkes again.
After these three measures, the Phoenix family, which was on the verge of collapse, actually started to shake again! With the more than 10,000 dark elves who had come to their aid as the core, the citizen soldiers and mercenaries from the southern commercial city-states, and the feudal mobilization troops that were reassembled with a lot of money, Duke Darkus once again had an army of about 80,000 people, which was quite good in both quantity and quality.
Because the previous defeat caused the front line to move back, this army had fewer problems with logistics and supply for interior operations. On the contrary, the front line of the Crusaders and Griffin's armies was lengthened, making logistics and supply more difficult.
Under such circumstances, the direction of the war became uncertain again!
Chapter 7: The Empress Brought Super Good Conditions
"This guy really has a bit of a heroic character."
After confirming all the news from the front line and confirming that Duke Darkus had reorganized an army in such a short time, Aslan was amazed and also developed some admiration for this guy.
After all, not everyone can survive and get back on their feet in such adversity. Don't worry about what method he used, just say whether it worked or not.
"..."
Hearing Aslan praising the enemy like this, although what he was actually thinking in his heart was similar to Aslan, General Hadaway still frowned and looked at Aslan with dissatisfaction.
The world's most handsome boy smiled, indicating that he had said the wrong thing. Even though the old general was dissatisfied, he couldn't say anything else.
In the previous Battle of Solderland, the Crusaders performed too well. Five thousand elite soldiers broke through the enemy's front line and destroyed the enemy's logistics supply center. In two days, they fought for hundreds of kilometers, defeated more than three times the enemy and captured twice as many enemies as themselves. In the subsequent pursuit battle, they defeated more than three times the enemy. The outstanding performance made the other friendly forces look like waste.
The old general's original intention was to hope that the Griffin family and Her Majesty the Queen could take some action to suppress Aslan.
Such an outstanding general must be used in the future, but if he is to be used, he must be treated with both kindness and severity, and the use of the stick of killing should be used to make him understand who is the boss.
But unfortunately, Her Majesty is in love now, a free-spirited person who enjoys a happy and mindless relationship. So instead of trying to suppress Aslan, she doubled her decree and praised Aslan like a flower. It seems that the world will not be able to survive without Aslan, and the planet Elan will stop functioning.
This made the old general feel extremely angry and helpless. If Aslan was not really good at fighting, just and excellent, he would have regarded Aslan as the reincarnation of a demon concubine who brought disaster to the world.
Although he is a man, the meaning is indeed correct.
But now, this most beautiful boy in the world, the man who bewitched Her Majesty the Queen to the point of revealing Ahegao like a stupid love-brained idiot, is still the most important factor in their victory over the rebels in the south.
Despite the Battle of Solderland, the old general was still a little unconvinced. But he still had to admit that in the next Battle of Solderland, he still had to rely on Aslan to win.
Regardless of the internal quarrels of the Griffin family, the Phoenix family had to be defeated. The old general still knew the importance of this.
Phoenix still directly controlled the territory of a duchy, and his allies controlled the equivalent of two duchies. The southern city-states could provide a large amount of money and mercenaries.
As long as the dark elves are still willing to support him, he can continue to persevere.
Are the dark elves willing? Just think about it and you will know that they are willing. At least before they annex the entire Beast Tide Wasteland, that's right.
General Hadaway felt that if he were the Dark Elf Queen, he would definitely do the same.
As long as they make such a gesture and send an army of 10,000 or 20,000 people, they can easily raise an army of nearly 100,000, cause trouble for the Golden Eagle Empire, and slow down the progress of the Crusaders. This strategy costs little, requires little investment, and has a high return. If you are not a fool, you will definitely choose it.
however.
not at all.
In other words, it is not absolute.
Because that night, after discussing strategy with his allies and colleagues, Aslan returned to his tent to handle some official business. He went to the Time Villa to rub people and open a portal to bring warmth to Her Majesty the Queen. Then he received a special messenger.
"As expected, he is the most beautiful boy in the world."
The dark elf's envoy, after removing his hood, revealed a charming and charming face. Of course, at the same time, compared to her beauty, Aslan's beauty hurt her more, and she couldn't help but blurt out such praise.
Of course, there are too many crazy women these days. Not to mention admiring his unparalleled beauty, some even wahaagh over him and launch biological and chemical attacks.
In this case, Aslan had already developed sufficient immunity.
Although the dark elf envoy on the opposite side also looked a bit fancy, wearing super short shorts and a tube top, revealing her slender waist and a pair of long and shiny thighs, Aslan had seen and experienced that before, and would not blurt out anything because of such a thing.
To be honest, it was politically incorrect for a dark elf messenger to appear in his tent. It would be troublesome if it could not be resolved quickly. If Aslan was not a little concerned about the other party's intentions and was quite curious, he would have drawn his sword and chopped off the other party's beautiful head with a flying dragon.
"You don't have much time."
"Master Aslan..."
"Please explain your intentions quickly—before I chop you down."
The dark elf envoy obviously wanted to take the opportunity to get closer to Aslan, but Aslan was serious. He really exuded a strong killing intent. After confirming that he would be killed if he acted rashly, the dark elf envoy honestly told Aslan the purpose of his visit.
——They hoped that Aslan would surrender.
Yes, although it sounds a bit unbelievable, they really think so. The conditions proposed by the Dark Elf Queen were very generous, even to the point that people thought she was stupid.
- As long as Aslan is willing to change his allegiance, believe in the Dark Goddess, and swear allegiance to the Dark Elf Queen, then the Queen can appoint Aslan as the Grand Vizier of the Golden Eagles. The entire Golden Eagle Empire, including the southern provinces, will be handed over to Aslan for management. And she will only ask for symbolic taxes.
"The Empress is willing to send the Empire's great Janissary Army and the unrivaled Kapikulu Royal Guard Knights to help you sweep the entire West. Whether it's the Knight Nations, the Wends, or the Beast Tide Wasteland, everything can be discussed. All of this can be sworn in front of the Goddess, with the power of the Goddess, and will never be violated."
If that was true, it sounded extremely generous. Aslan was also somewhat curious about this: "Why did your empress spend so much money and work so hard? You can't just say that I am the most beautiful boy in the world and your empress will be crazy about me, right?"
"Of course not... Of course, not completely." The envoy smiled and said the next words: "As a price... Of course, that is not really a price - you can become the husband of the empress. Share with him the great power to rule the entire empire. In this way, the whole world will be unified in the great union between you and the empress. The whole world will also gain peace because of this great union.
Look, isn’t this perfect?”
Chapter 8 But I Reject
Although Aslan had a vague premonition before this, he couldn't help but want to complain after hearing what the dark elf envoy said.
Isn't this just a super marriage invasion?
I don't know the current situation of the nations conquered by the dark elves, right? After those dark elf bitches married, they immediately ruled those vassal states with force, and the half-elf offspring they had later became the licking dogs of the dark elf bitches. In this way, they achieved deep control over the vassal states, integrating and digesting them bit by bit, killing people with a soft knife without bloodshed.
Aslan had always thought that the Dark Elves' Jade Empire corresponded to the Persian + Ottoman Empire on Earth. But seeing how skillfully these Gou Babichi used marriage to expand, it was clear that they had even stitched up the Habsburgs.
Has fantasy been stitched together this way these days? Aslan was very surprised.
At the same time, because Aslan did not speak for a short time, the dark elf envoy thought that Aslan was thinking seriously and hard. He couldn't help but think secretly in his heart, as expected, even if he was the world's most beautiful boy, and now Aslan was touted as the world's most famous general, he would be hit by such a soft knife.
Since every man has his own pride, the stronger the man, the more proud and confident he will be. Just like Aslan now - he must think that he is so outstanding that all women in the world will be fascinated by him. So the final result of the empress's current surrender and marriage is that he will take the initiative and eventually become the head of this super integrated empire.
But in fact it is not the case at all. It is not the case at all.
There are countless examples of national integration, or racial integration, on the road of the expansion of the Jade Empire. Those powerful, proud, and confident monarchs, one by one, felt that they could tame their dark elf wives and take the initiative in this marriage.
But what is the final result?
The end result is that they all fail, and all of them end up being hard-working slaves to their dark elf bitch wives, rather than the other way around.
Even the youngest and strongest ones who succeeded could not guarantee that their offspring would be as strong as them. In the end, their offspring, the second generation of half-blooded half-dark elves, still became their hard-working slaves.
The final result is always the victory of the dark elves.
And now, this man who was so proud, so powerful, so handsome, and so strong, was about to become the latest victim of the dark elves' marriage tactics.
What was different from before was that before this, the most the Jade Empire could do for marriage was to send a princess. There had never been an empress marrying off.
But this time, the empress was really moved.
This attraction is not only because Aslan is the most beautiful boy in the world, but more importantly because of the dowry Aslan can bring and Aslan's abilities.
At the beginning, the Queen did not regard Aslan as a very important role, but only regarded Aslan as a hard-working slave reserve.
It was only after the Battle of Solderland that the empress's quasi-vassal state suffered a great loss, and the empress began to pay more attention to Aslan.
When she paid more attention to him, she mobilized the intelligence force and gathered all the information about Aslan. Then she was surprised to find that he was a treasure boy.
In terms of ability, he was able to start from scratch and conquer such a large territory in two years. In terms of wealth, the Crusader Knights Kingdom plus the territory of the three dukes of Norse, the population and resources added together were not small for the Jade Empire.
In addition, Aslan himself is the most beautiful boy in the world. He also severely defeated Duke Darkos's army on the front line, so the empress had an idea -
Before this, the Jade Empire court had high hopes for Darcus von Phinex, thinking that this guy could satisfy the Empire's interests in the West.
Darkus himself is no ordinary person. His abilities and skills are not inferior to any monarch known to the Jade Empire.
But such an excellent monarch, with so many troops and so many military supplies, was defeated by Aslan in one breath. For the dark elves of the Jade Empire, it was also a very incredible and surprising thing.
After confirming all this, the Queen still did not take action directly because at the beginning she had not thought that it would be too shocking to personally arrange a marriage with Aslan.
But if she didn't do it herself, the Jade royal family would be sparsely populated at this moment, and the close relatives were almost killed by the empress herself. There were still some distant relatives left, but these women were not enough to control and control Aslan - she already knew Aslan's dragon bloodline and confirmed that Aslan would live a long time in the future. He was not like ordinary people who died in a few decades.
What's more, with Aslan's pride and strength, if he was just a distant royal relative, the other party would most likely look down on him.
Just when she was in trouble, a mysterious gift from a distant region finally made Her Majesty the Empress make up her mind -
As a proud, self-righteous, and extremely powerful empress, she thought she should express disgust towards this kind of thing, that is, the imperial liquid or something like that.
However, when she knew that this was Aslan's Emperor Fluid, her disgust miraculously disappeared. What was even more miraculous was that after she used this Emperor Fluid with a subtle mindset, she confirmed its miraculous effect.
It's not about being immune to all diseases, replenishing magic power, and quickly recovering physical strength, etc. It's about the essence of life, the sublimation of the life level.
That wonderful, incomparable feeling made her make the final decision.
From any perspective, Aslan is the most suitable person to be the emperor of the empire.
The Queen even actually had the idea of sharing power with Aslan.
Of course, this idea came and went quickly. If Aslan really came to her side, she would change her mind again and find a way to make Aslan her hard-working slave.
As for circumventing the oath of the Dark Goddess, it is impossible for ordinary dark elves, but it is a very easy thing for the Queen.
……
at the same time.
Neither Aslan nor the Dark Elf Envoy knew the Queen's true thoughts and mental journey. But in the end, Aslan's decision still surprised the Dark Elf Envoy:
"Your conditions are indeed very good. Your sincerity seems to be sufficient."
"But, I refuse."
Chapter 9: Holy Light Marshal
Aslan's words surprised the Dark Elf envoy:
"Coach Aslan, do you have any conditions? It doesn't matter, we can talk!"
She wanted to say something else, but Aslan waved his hand and said, "You don't have to say anything more."
“It’s not a matter of conditions.”
"It means that I will never give in to any woman."
"Of course I'll get that woman."
"In my way."
"When I destroy her empire and her proud army, I will completely take over her body and mind. Then, she will know who is her master."
When Aslan said the word "woman" with a slightly contemptuous and objectifying feeling, the expression of the dark elf envoy opposite her changed. It was as if she was going to shout "Bold!" and accuse Aslan of being too presumptuous in the next second.
But before she could open her mouth, a strong sense of fear made her speechless.
It was Aslan's powerful aura that suppressed her.
