Ark, they took my future seriously

"Carlo actually asked me to support my future greatest enemy?"

Carlo's suggestion aroused her slight doubts.

As an old player who has played the game several times, Tracy knows how much frustration those people from the Glasgow Gang have caused him.

But Carlo is an extremely rare talent in this land.

Is it possible that a person of his caliber would give me a particularly wrong answer?

This is impossible no matter how you think about it, right?

"Your Highness, the Regent, a telegram from Londinium."

"The Blood Demon Lord called and said that the dukes have reduced the garrison in Londinium. Now the Victorian forces in Londinium are vulnerable. If we launch an attack now, the city defense of Londinium will easily fall into our hands."

While Theresis was wondering why Carlo made this suggestion, the communications officer brought her a telegram from Londinium.

"Leave it there."

Tresis had already figured out what the dukes of Londinium were planning from his previous deductions.

The defenses of Londinium are now weak, not because other dukes were careless and reduced their garrisons.

Instead, they deliberately lured her into Londinium, provoking fierce conflicts with the Victorians, and then when the conflicts reached their peak, the dukes came to eliminate her, thus fulfilling their ambition of ascending the throne.

Recalling this, Tracy suddenly felt a string in his mind break, and then he fell into deep thought.

"The Dukes deliberately tricked us into entering Londinium to create conflict with the Victorians."

"And the Glasgow gang will lead Victoria against us in the conflict?"

"Carlo suggested that I support the Glasgow gang, so..."

For a moment, Tracy opened his mouth and fell into a daze.

Somehow, Tracy suddenly found himself understanding Carlo's long-term plans.

The other party wants to use the Glasgow Gang as a pawn to engage in a pull and balance of power between them and the Dukes of Victoria.

After the Glasgow Gang and the Military Commission became allies, it would be impossible for them to cause heavy losses to the Military Commission as in the previous simulations.

This can be described as a clever strategy to reap the benefits while sitting back and reaping the benefits.

"You are Carlo indeed. Why didn't I think of that?"

Carlo's control over the situation has refreshed Tracy's understanding of strategy.

In my previous simulations, whenever I encountered difficulties, I thought about strengthening my strength to overcome them.

But they never expected that they could turn difficulties into their own strengths before they occurred.

This way of solving the problem is really unprecedented.

"Carlo, you are so strong. You are worthy of being the man who leaves a legend in every deduction."

Tracy felt his desire for challenge and self-confidence were higher than ever before.

According to Carlo's plan, they could infiltrate Londinium at very little cost.

Chapter 169: A loyal minister like the Blood Demon Lord must be expelled.

There's not much to say.

Tracy did what Carlo said immediately.

[Tracy found Vina and told her that he wanted to help the Victorians.]

Vina, who was sitting with Carlo at this time, saw that Tracys, the big fool, was fooled.

He immediately followed Carlo's arrangements and started to fool people.

[Vina told Tracy that the Glasgow Gang was weak and giving them a few million in aid was useless. If they wanted Glasgow to make a difference, they would need at least hundreds of millions of Longmen coins.]

"Hundreds of millions of Longmen coins!!!"

"This is too much money. Hundreds of millions of Longmen coins are enough to cover the military expenses of my entire army."

Tracy did not expect that Vina would ask for such a huge amount of money, demanding hundreds of millions of Longmen coins right away.

You have to know that although Kazdel is a country, this country only has one mobile city with a population of one million.

Although it is called a country, its actual economic size is equivalent to that of a medium-sized city.

Coupled with the past ten years of civil war with the Tower of Babel, Kazdel's economy had long been hollowed out by the military.

Now Vina wants 100 million Longmen coins, which Tracy really cannot afford.

If she had so much money, she would have bought arms for the Sarkaz long ago.

[Carlo saw Tracy's hesitation and immediately suggested that she reduce the army and give the military funds to Vina.]

"disarmament!"

Tracy gasped.

It begins with Teresis's participation in the battle against invaders two hundred years ago.

Tresis firmly believed that only a strong armed force could guarantee national security and bring voice to the Sarkaz people.

Therefore, during the past two hundred years, Tracys has been focusing on Kazdel's military affairs.

The reason why Theresa, the Demon King and the Speaker of the Kazdel Government, was defeated by her was also related to her lack of military power of the regular army.

Judging from Tracy's life experience, she is where she is today thanks to the army.

Now that Carlo asked her to lay off her troops, it was undoubtedly a dig at her lifeblood.

"But this plan was thought up by Carlo. Carlo's strategy will definitely not go wrong."

Out of trust in Carlo's ability.

Tracy gritted his teeth and directly disbanded a corps of 5,000 new recruits.

[Teresis disbanded a legion and gave all the saved military funds to Vina.]

After receiving the funds, Vina took the money back to prevent Tracy from regretting his decision.

She arranged on the spot for Morgan, Dagda and others who were involved in the simulation to bring the aid funds from Tracys to Londinium as soon as possible.

[In January 1095, Tresis dismissed the new army stationed outside Londinium, and in order to save supply expenses, he withdrew another 1-man army back to Kazdel.]

[As of January 1095, 1, the military committee's forces outside Londinium were reduced from 15 to .]

[Thanks to Tracy's disarmament, Kazdel's stretched economy got a break. Tracy received the capital surplus from Kazdel City for the first time.]

[As the Sarkaz continued to withdraw, the Dukes of Victoria were surprised.]

[In order to find out the real purpose of Tresis, they sent messengers to contact Tresis secretly and ask her what she wanted to do.]

"The Dukes' calculations have failed, and now they are getting anxious."

"So that's what Carlo meant."

Seeing this, Tracy understood Carlo's foresight more and more.

These dukes wanted to use her selfishness to become the fuse of the Victoria situation so that they could reap the benefits.

But she wouldn't go in, so Victoria's contradictions would become more and more irreconcilable, and she could just sit back and watch the fire.

From being the prey in the fight between two powerful opponents to being a hunter watching the situation, Tracys suddenly developed a sense of security that he was in control of everything.

The security and confidence in her heart also made her admire Carlo even more.

Carlo's simple plan brought her so many benefits, and who knows how many more clever ideas Carlo will come up with in the future.

Now that he had only withdrawn 15,000 men, the dukes were already getting restless.

If I withdraw another 10,000 people, wouldn't their true colors be revealed?

Think of this.

Tresis responded to the dukes during the deduction.

[“Please tell your master behind you that we Sarkaz have no interest in getting involved in Victoria’s household affairs. As long as you pay the original employment fee, we will withdraw immediately.”]

The hiring fee Tracy mentioned was the incident at the end of last year when they cooperated with the dukes to ambush and kill Steam Armor. At that time, the dukes secretly agreed to give Kazdel billions of financial support after the success.

Of course, in the previous simulations, as Tracy swallowed up Londinium, the dukes naturally did not pay this money.

Now that Carlo wouldn't let her enter Londinium, she might as well get the money back.

[On January 1, the Military Committee received a transfer of 25 billion Longmen coins into its foreign exchange account in Colombia.]

Seeing that the funds had arrived, Tracy immediately withdrew the 10,000 troops he had prepared long ago back to Kazdel.

[On January 1, the Sarkaz withdrew again, and only 28 Sarkaz troops were left outside Londinium.]

[In February 1095, the dukes, who had withdrawn all their troops three months earlier, once again sent reinforcements to Londinium.]

[At first, each side only sent a few hundred people. After seeing the large area of ​​military camps vacated by the Sarkaz, the dukes of each side began to frantically increase their troops. Among them, the Duke of Caister increased his troops the most. It took only one week for the Duke of Caister to mobilize 30,000 land forces and two light fleets.]

[The dukes had frequent frictions inside and outside the city of Londinium, which affected a large number of innocent citizens of Londinium and caused complaints from the people of Londinium.]

The dukes' reinforcements made Tracy even more convinced of Carlo's wisdom.

It is much more comfortable for them, the Sarkaz, to sit back and reap the benefits than to be pawns themselves.

Waiting for the Dukes and the Glasgow Gang to both be defeated, who can stop Victoria?

Just when Tracy was feeling lucky that he had won over Carlo.

Some high-ranking officials of the Military Commission who were unaware of Carlo's abilities and did not understand Carlo's policies finally became unable to sit still, including the Blood Demon Lord, who was one of the members of the Kazdel Royal Court.

[In the eyes of the Blood Demon Lord and others, Carlo's suggestion not only made the Sarkaz miss the opportunity to seize a century-old city, but also caused the Sarkaz's military strength to drop sharply.]

[With such a small amount of military force, what benefits can the Sakaz gain in Londinium? Not to mention that since Carlo became the general, he has not only failed to achieve any military merit, but has also sent money and food to the Victorians. ]

[If it weren't for Tracy's sake, they would have called Carlo a traitor long ago.]

[But by February, with the dukes constantly increasing their troops, the Blood Demon Lord realized that he could no longer seize Londinium and realize the revival of Kazdel, and he no longer cared about giving Tracys face. ]

[The Blood Demon Lord immediately led hundreds of radical officers from the Military Committee to block Tresis in the barracks, demanding that Tresis expel Carlo, the traitor. He also transferred domestic military forces to catch the dukes off guard.]

"Trash, a bunch of trash!"

"Why can't you figure it out?"

"I think Carlo is a traitor, but I think you are the traitors! I want to drive you all away."

Seeing that these people did not understand Carlo's foresight, they even tried to force him to abdicate.

Tracy felt very angry.

No wonder my previous deductions always failed. How could I not fail when fighting against such a bunch of pig-headed idiots?

No wonder I fought the Tower of Babel for ten years even though I held military power. It turned out that it was a group of scum who were dragging me down.

Tracy stood up and paced in the tent for a while before he gradually calmed down.

"Calm down...even though they are trash."

"But now they are also required to maintain the current system of the military commission."

As the regent of Kazdel, what kind of storms, difficulties and crises has Tracy not seen?

At times like this, the more opposition others have, the more calmly you should handle the dispute.

[Tracy said that all the current strategies were jointly researched by herself and Carlo. They said Carlo was a traitor. Is she also a traitor? ]

[Tracy finally made a big promise to the radical officers, saying that everything he and Carlo did was for Kazdel, and that after a while, you will understand the purpose of this.]

[Many people chose to believe Tracys after seeing his attitude and assurance.]

[But some people still have doubts, including the leader of the war faction, the Blood Demon Lord.]

[In order to break the status quo, the Blood Demon Lord decided to create a bloody incident at the Londinium Mine somewhere outside the city of Londinium.]

[He wanted to use this to provoke the Victorians' attitude towards them, so that Tresis would have to use the policy they had previously agreed on, to seize Londinium by force, and to squeeze the blood of the Londinium people to supply nutrients to Kazdel.]

[On February 2, the Blood Demon Lord pretended to be drunk and rushed to the Originium Mine outside the city of Londinium with a knife.]

[Fortunately, the movements of the Blood Demon Lord were discovered by the Glasgow gang members who came to contact the Military Committee. They informed Tracys, Carlo and others of the news in time.]

[After learning about this, Tracys and Carlo rushed to the scene and stopped the Blood Demon Lord before he could cause a more brutal massacre.]

[However, even though Tracys arrived in time, the Blood Demon Lord still caused five deaths and three injuries among the miners.]
