.

Over there, Ifrit was making a new plan to promote the potion, and people in other parts of the world were also busy.

Now is not the barbaric era of long ago, but a modern civilization with cars and spaceships running everywhere.

Countries are no longer relatively independent entities that nothing would happen if they did not interact for a hundred years.

Frequent import and export trade and the complementarity of each other's industrial systems have long made the countries of the world closely connected together.

In today's international community, except for Sami and the deep-sea country of Agor, all countries are interconnected with each other.

Such a big thing happened in Ursus, and the impact is far beyond its own country.

Not to mention business matters, his neighboring countries have already begun to make sufficient preparations militarily.

The Yan State has no ambitions. The reason they increased border defenses is simply because they are afraid that the civil unrest in Ursus will splash blood on their faces.

This is not unfounded.

The mobility and destructive power of those top-notch source teeth-driven warriors are quite astonishing. When they use their full strength, they are no less than a natural disaster.

If the nobles emptied their family coffers to engage in a full-scale fight with the emperor, then the war between the nobles' coupled strong men and those inner guards, fighting while running, might turn half of Ursus into a scorched earth!

Although the top leaders of Yan State in charge of internal security technology were not clear about the exact details, they had long heard about its polluting nature. After the coupling was achieved, the pollution intensity of those internal security devices became even higher. If that damn thing spread to their borders, they would be in dire straits for the rest of their lives!

Leitania began to withdraw its troops at this critical juncture and stopped the small-scale local war it had been fighting with Ursus, for fear of becoming an outlet for the two sides.

Syracuse, which is also a close neighbor of Ursus, is panicking at the moment and has even started writing letters for help to its new "big brother" and the King of the Dawn.

"Boss! I need humanitarian assistance!" Any movement of a big country may have a drastic impact on a small country, and an event of this magnitude has made Syracuse, a small country living between many big countries, start to panic.

They were afraid that what was happening before their eyes would be the fuse for a bigger riot!

More than a year ago, after the King of Dawn appeared out of nowhere, the international situation has not been very good. More than half a year ago, countries were still stockpiling food and actively preparing for a possible world war. Now, with the King of Dawn's trip to Iberia and the Coupling Technology College about to open, the war situation has been suppressed.

But it was just suppressed, it didn't disappear!

Syracuse's worries were not entirely unfounded.

Because there really is a neighboring country of Ursus that is considering taking this opportunity to start a war with Ursus!

This country is none other than Casimir, who has a deep hatred for Ursus...

Chapter 233 Red-Eyed Casimir

The feud between the two countries of Casimir and Ursus is so deep that it is difficult to describe in words. Perhaps only the conflict between Germany and France in Luo Cheng's previous life can surpass it.

Throughout the thousand years of history, Casimir and Ursus have incurred heavy blood debts from each other.

Even to this day, there is still a territory of Casimir under the control of Ursus.

This is the eternal pain in the hearts of those Casimir people who care about their country!

That's my land! How could you take it away like that?

Just a few years before Luo Cheng came to this world, the throne of Ursus changed, and the current emperor came to power in a hurry. Casimir took advantage of the turbulent situation in Ursus to launch a war, vowing to take back his lost territory!

pity.

The results were not good.

Ursus is not a country where the emperor decides everything. The grand dukes are no pushovers. They realized long ago that Casimir might make some moves, so they launched an ambush. Not only did they almost wipe out Casimir's troops, they also used this as an opportunity for the nobles and the new emperor to get along with each other.

From then on, although the nobles and the emperor were somewhat wary of each other, they got along well until the emperor began to think about becoming a god.

Casimir, who suffered heavy losses, could only console himself with the fact that his most elite knights miraculously broke through the encirclement of Ursus and killed many enemy soldiers along the way.

Behind the apparent heroic propaganda, Casimir was seriously injured.

This was also one of the reasons why the Knights found it difficult to organize a decent counterattack when the Commercial Federation rose in Casimir. Too many of their backbones were consumed in that war, and only a small number of top masters survived. However, the role of top masters was really limited in an era when coupling had not yet risen.

Whether in large-scale battles or in political struggles.

Due to the lack of soldiers, the knights suffered heavy casualties, and their voice in the country naturally became lower and lower.

And at this moment, it seems like the past is happening again.

Ursus once again fell into civil strife, and after years of recuperation and the widespread popularization of Dawn Company's medicines, Casimir once again accumulated a wealth of wealth that can compete with others!

After spending a large sum of money to purchase a batch of Sparks from the Dawn Corporation, the hawkish elements in the military, which had become stronger and more inflated, could no longer hold back their ambitions to achieve great things!

They are longing for war, they are longing to take back what they have lost!

In this country that still retains the chivalric system, many high-ranking military positions are inherited through bloodlines. The officers who died tragically in that battle where they were almost completely annihilated were the fathers and uncles of the officers who are in charge of the army today!

As a result, they have a deeper obsession with that land and more hatred towards Ursus!

At this time, Casimir's military's fighting spirit was so high that even the top government officials found it difficult to suppress it.

Using the excuse of "wait and see, wait for the right time, and start preparing logistics", they finally managed to temporarily control those generals who were almost going crazy.

But the top brass knew that this repression was only temporary and it was impossible to keep them locked up for long.

Compared with the military, politicians are always more cautious about war.

That battle had really hurt them, but they were not direct descendants of those fallen soldiers. Rather than hatred, they felt more humiliation and resentment for the losses they suffered.

This kind of emotion cannot support them to start a mindless war.

In this era of the emergence of coupled powers, the pattern of warfare will inevitably change. Since the rise of coupled powers, no two countries in the world have ever fought a major war and have not been tested by actual warfare.

The top officials of Casimir are not 100% confident that the training of their army can achieve the expected results, and they can even be said to be nervous.

Whether or not to take the risk and be the first to try something new, under the pressure, the politicians in Casimir feel like they are going to go bald with worry!

"How about trying peaceful means first?" one of the middle-aged men suggested during the high-level meeting.

His plan was simple, which was to replicate the scene that had taken place at the Iberian Summit of Nations.

All the countries in Terra put pressure on Ursus, forcing it to hand over the occupied land.

"It's unlikely. First, other countries may not be willing to get involved in this matter. Second, it's not that easy to get back the lost land with words..." Land is vital to any country.

Not to mention losing it, even temporarily leasing it to other countries is an act of losing sovereignty and humiliating the country. Those who owe a treaty will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history!

If he wants to take it back without a real fight, the possibility is almost zero unless the King of Dawn stands behind him immediately, expresses his full support for this matter, and uses his military force and reputation to coerce him.

"No, that's not what I mean. I just want to create a situation where we can have a legitimate reason to attack and weaken the opponent's legal basis."

"You have seen the attitude of those people in the military. We can't suppress them. There are too many coupled strong men gathered in the army. If we insist on stopping them, I am afraid that those knights will sacrifice our heads!" This is also a difficult problem faced by the governments of most countries after the coupling era. The power of the military has expanded too much. All countries have reversed the trend from the past of using civil power to control the military to the trend of military intervention in politics!

The only exceptions are those countries where the rulers themselves are terrifyingly powerful.

For example, there is Letania with the Twin Queens and the Witch King, Columbia with the 'eternal president', and Shelagh and the Sarkaz Royal Court.

"Since we cannot stop the war, what we need is to further disrupt the situation in Ursus and prevent the nobles who have begun to fight against each other from joining forces with the emperor. Otherwise, the outcome may not be as simple as a repeat of what happened back then."

"It is possible that Ursus will use this war as an opportunity to divert internal conflicts and start a total war with Casimir to the death!"

"And this is what we need to try our best to avoid." After saying that, the middle-aged man began to describe his detailed plan.

How to use one group to fight another after gaining legitimacy for the war, exacerbating the conflicts in Ursus, and how to stop the war machine that has already started after regaining lost territory.

The plan cannot be said to be foolproof, but it at least seems to be somewhat possible.

During the meeting, everyone looked at each other and finally agreed to this plan.

.

.

.

Clang!

The crystal glasses collided, making a crisp sound.

The middle-aged man who had just spoken saw off an old man in casual clothes.

The old man was a giant in Casimir's military, and what he had just said was actually the old man's idea.

"Old fox..." the middle-aged man said in his heart.

He actually didn't like this plan very much, but being in a high position at a young age always had some price, and at the appropriate time, he would become a mouthpiece for some people in the official high-level positions.

The top brass also knew that his remarks must have been shared by many people behind him, who shared the same view and conveyed it through his mouth. His remarks just now seemed to be a concern for the military, but in fact they were also a threat from the military!

That’s why the plan was passed so smoothly. Who wants to have their head removed? Even if the possibility is not high.

At this point, Casimir began to make comprehensive preparations for the upcoming war!

Chapter 234: Onlookers

"Luo Cheng, do you think this farce will turn into a war?" After a day of practice, Muirseth lazily lay on the sofa in Luo Cheng's office, tilted his head and asked Luo Cheng who was writing something on the desk.

The Ursus incident caused such a big stir that it attracted the attention of almost all countries in Terra. Not only the top leaders of the country, but also some well-informed people became spectators.

This farce, no matter what the outcome, has great historical significance for Terra.

Because this was the first time that Terra had a falling out with the domestic aristocratic forces because the emperor wanted to become a god, and he really had the opportunity to become a god.

So far, only the Emperor of Ursus has actually done so.

But faced with a similar situation, there are many people who want to emulate Emperor Ursus!

Some high-ranking figures in small countries, as well as some leaders of large organizations, may have the idea of ​​gathering all their forces to support themselves at this moment!

They were all waiting, waiting to see how the farce in Ursus would end.

They will cross the river by feeling the stones and learn lessons from it.

So that I can have a reference when I do similar things in the future.

Although Muirseth had no interest in this regard, he was still a little curious about this international hot-spot event, which was triggered by his own company's behavior.

After receiving the letter of help from Syracuse, Luo Cheng, who was replying to the letter, replied without raising his head: "There is a certain possibility, but even if there is a fight, it probably won't be a full-scale war."

The Liming Company is no longer the same as it used to be. It is no longer a company with a big name but few employees. Now, Liming Company has its subsidiaries all over the world.

Every day, a large amount of information from all over the world gathers here. With the help of these, companies can better formulate their own development strategies, and Luo Cheng can also use this to know the overall situation and details of the entire Terra.

In some more distant places, such as the East Country of Yan, our own forces may still be weaker, and the intelligence may not be detailed and accurate.

But most of the area west of the center line of the Terra continent is already the sphere of influence of Dawn Company and its cronies.

This also includes Casimir. Many secret lines in this country were developed by Luo Cheng himself, so the level of intelligence personnel is higher than that of other countries except for the two countries that performed miracles themselves.

Luo Cheng has already received the news that Casimir is preparing for war.

It's not just Luo Cheng. After the rise of coupling power, people in this world combined coupling with the source stone skills of this world and created a lot of weird things.

Some powerful people may have also received similar messages.

The main war leaders within Casimir also know that in today's world, it is very difficult to keep secrets, so their war plan is the kind that appears somewhat "upright" by first announcing it to the international community, then seeking pressure from allies, and finally firing the cannons.

Anyway, if you really want to launch a sneak attack, it will be difficult to hide it from others, so it is better to be open and aboveboard from the beginning to better increase the legitimacy of your own actions!

As for Casimir's war, can they achieve their goal and take back their lost territory...

In Luo Cheng's opinion, if they cut in at the right time, there might be some possibility.

If we fight before Ifrit starts taking action or after everything is settled, there will be basically no hope.

The key to Casimir's success here is the international announcement that he made unintentionally!

If they don't find a sufficient justification for their war and stop in time after regaining lost territory...

You know, in the script that Ifrit prepared for Bozhukas, he is a strong civilian who speaks up for the people, and he is indeed a "patriot" who cares about the country and the people.

If Casimir goes to war without declaring war, what they may face is not only a counterattack from the Ursus officials, but also a head-on blow from the turning of the wheel!

This is a war coming from outside, and the possibility of a war breaking out within Ursus is low unless the emperor is unwilling to be lonely and tells others to make trouble.

Now the nobles and the emperor are in a dilemma, and no one wants to take the first step. They all hope that an external force will break the balance.

They just go with the flow.

And if Ifrit follows her plan, they will probably soon have no time to care about each other.

After putting down the last stroke, Luo Cheng took out an envelope and put the reply letter to Syracuse in it.
