Chapter 129 Crisis in the Nolan Kingdom
The execution ceremony ended hastily.
The five people in Ellis were imprisoned again, and all the announcements of Mo Feng from the dragon clan appearing at the execution ground spread like a virus, spreading crazily throughout the entire city of Scythia in an instant.
The most direct threat of war from the dragon clan instantly caused a huge panic in the entire city. Countless Nolan people packed their luggage and left the city crazily, fleeing in all directions... Wealthy businessmen, carrying countless cars of wealth and jewelry, They fled the city of Scythia one after another and traveled through the starry night, preparing to rush to the neighboring Gulf Kingdom to escape the disaster of war.
Apparently...
No one with any conditions is willing to stay in the city of Scythia, waiting to be burned to ashes by the dragon clan's raging fury.
The entire city of Scythia was in complete chaos.
There was a complete breakdown of law and order.
All the restaurants in the market are closed.
The streets were full of Kingdom soldiers running back and forth.
-
In the palace.
Countless nobles gathered in the court, admonishing one after another, begging His Majesty the King to avoid war. If the Nolan Kingdom really went to war with the Dragon Clan, the entire kingdom would be dragged into hell and never recover.
King Lawrence was silent, but his eyes were full of anger.
At this time.
Earl Amelia stood up and said, "Your Majesty, it is a great shame that the dragon clan threatens our Nolan Kingdom in this way. If our Nolan Kingdom gives in this time and obediently hands over the five Ellises, Then how can our Nolan Kingdom gain a foothold on the entire continent in the future? How should other neighboring countries view our Nolan Kingdom?"
Before King Lawrence could speak.
A nobleman stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the Dragon Clan is powerful. Everyone knows that a giant dragon is so terrifying. If the Dragon Clan came out in full force, with its strength, even any country on the continent would be difficult for any clan to fight alone. Dragon Clan. - If we, the Nolan Kingdom, take the lead to fight against the entire Dragon Clan on our own, the entire country will be in flames of war, with rivers of blood flowing, and the national power will be greatly damaged."
Another noble stood up and said, "Your Majesty, although our kingdom has vast borders, strong armored soldiers, abundant treasury, and strong combat power... However, the Dragon Clan has the advantage of taking advantage of the sky. In a matter of seconds, they can directly lead the army to the royal capital. , if there really is a fight, not to mention that the entire city of Scythia will be reduced to ruins and caught in the flames of war. - Your Majesty’s safety will be difficult to guarantee. If your Majesty is in danger, it will be the biggest disaster for the entire Norland Kingdom."
Another noble stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the Dragon Clan launched an attack. Suddenly, the army came to the city. Our country was unprepared and rushed to fight. The victory was a disastrous victory, and the defeat was a disastrous defeat... Why should we let the kingdom count for just five people?" How about the millions of people who endure the pain of war?"
Someone else said, "Your Majesty, it's not too late to hand over Ellis and others to stabilize the Dragon Clan first, and then seek revenge later."
……
Faced with the persuasion of noble ministers.
King Lawrence heard it all, but he really couldn't swallow this breath.
he asked Count Amelia.
"How many troops can the kingdom mobilize at present?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, three days is too short. Currently, the only troops that can be mobilized are the royal capital's garrison, which is less than one hundred thousand. We have dispatched twenty-six special envoys, traveling at starry and night hours, to various surrounding cities to mobilize additional troops. However... ..., because the royal capital is located in the hinterland of the kingdom, except for the royal capital which is heavily guarded, other cities only have a small number of garrisoned troops. If..., it would take at least six days to mobilize the main army to support the royal capital. It’s really too late.”
Count Amelia replied truthfully.
King Lawrence looked ugly and said sadly, "So, I am a noble kingdom of Nolan, but when faced with the bullying of the Dragon Clan, do I really have to swallow my anger and admit my mistake? Don't you have any other better ways? Just all of them. Are you going to let the Dragon Clan ride on our heads, yell at us, and humiliate us at will? Huh? - Say it all! Say it!"
All the nobles bowed their heads.
Someone stood up and said, "Report to Your Majesty, it is definitely not a wise move to rashly start a war with the Dragon Clan. Your Majesty has worked hard to govern, and the kingdom has developed so far that it can dominate the world, and its strength far exceeds the other two kingdoms. At this time..., if we With the power of the whole country, we will fight to the death with the Dragon Clan. Even if we win in the end, our national strength will be greatly damaged and our hegemony will be lost. Our Kingdom of Norland is very likely to change from the strongest among the three kingdoms to the weakest among the three kingdoms. For the sake of the overall situation of the kingdom, I sincerely request your majesty. , make careful decisions.”
Another noble said, "Yes, Your Majesty, it's okay to lose face sometimes. A little impatience will mess up a big plan. One is the so-called face, and the other is the future of the kingdom. Between the two, which one is more important, Your Majesty, think twice." .”
Seeing that almost half of the nobles were trying to persuade him to let go, King Lawrence became angry when he heard this, because what he really wanted to hear first was not the advice that called him a weakling.
How to kill the enemy, how to retreat from the enemy, and how to protect the country are what really matter.
But right now.
He himself was also worried that if the dragon army went crazy and really turned the entire city of Scythia upside down, the Nolan Kingdom would really not be able to bear such a loss.
If you lose face, just endure it, maybe it will be okay.
But if the city is destroyed, the Nolan Kingdom will really suffer.
-
After careful consideration.
King Lawrence said to the nobles, "In any case, in three days, mobilize all the troops that can be mobilized to defend the royal capital! The five Ellis people will be put on death row for the time being and ignore it. If..., then the Dragon Clan will really In order to protect the Kingdom and the country, the innocent people should indeed avoid conflicts with the Dragon Clan. What is right and wrong will be decided at that time! Let’s first see how much force the Dragon Clan can send. - We will not admit defeat easily. , but he is not stubborn, he just goes with the flow and waits for the opportunity."
"Your Majesty is wise." xN
"I still don't believe in a human traitor. He can really mobilize the entire dragon clan to fight against my Nolan Kingdom! Mo Feng..., this person has become our mortal enemy of the Nolan Kingdom. This humiliation, our Nolan Kingdom I will never forget it! Don’t forget it, everyone! - Sanchao!"
All the words are said here.
After King Lawrence finished speaking, he stood up, waved his sleeves, and turned around angrily and left.
The other nobles also dispersed.
-
That night.
In the familiar dark death cell, the five people in Ellis had mixed feelings and were filled with sorrow. On the one hand, they were really moved that Mo Feng showed up in person, risked his life, and even risked a war between the two countries to rescue them... ..., but on the other hand, they are also worried about their kidnapped family members. If they are rescued by the Dragon Clan, their families will surely suffer. After all, the other party will most likely use their family members to vent their anger and revenge afterwards.
Ellis and the others don't want to see this happen.
If not.
Back then, they would not have been willing to go to the execution platform and trade their own lives for the lives of their families.
however……
By now, their thoughts no longer mattered. They could only go with the flow and let fate dictate.
