In these past years, with the rapid expansion of the Blue Dragon Palace, one nation after another has fallen under the onslaught of the Dragon's Nest army; many regions were attacked and ruled by it, almost one-fifth of the entire Seta Continent was conquered by the Dragon's Nest army.
During this period, it was not without certain organizations claiming justice forming alliances, attempting to resist the terrifying and formidable offensive of the Blue Dragon Kingdom.
So more enlightened feudal states, after witnessing the strength of the Blue Dragon Kingdom, even hoped to learn from its political system, borrow its path of developnt and expansion, adopt what is best from others to control them, implent reforms, strengthen national power, to gain the capital to confront the Blue Dragon Kingdom.
However,
Reform requires touching the interests of vested classes.
Not to ntion such a feudal system of noble domains which has persisted for nearly ten thousand years, has long since monopolized and hijacked the advancent of the entire country and all human classes; trying to seize power and benefits from the noble classes, relying on only a few enlightened individuals is far from sufficient.
People are selfish.
How much more greedy the majority of the noble class?
The flawed roots deep within human's heart make them, even knowing that once the Blue Dragon Kingdom's army arrives, their wealth and power can absolutely not be preserved, still unwilling to let go a bit, adamant until death.
The so-called reforms of certain countries, even with the strong support of the king, were barely carried out for a period.
But ultimately were completely extinguished in the backlash of the old nobility; under the overwhelming pressure of the old forces, the main reformist participants, being able to preserve their lives was considered fortunate, and it wasn't impossible for the unlucky ones to have their properties confiscated and families destroyed, implicating friends and family.
Yet, during the reform period, so scientific and economic developnt results that reformists referred to for improvent, all beca a grand feast on the table of the victorious old nobility's backlash.
However,
These new things, once they fell into the hands of the decadent noble class, also lost the vitality they had under the leadership of reformists, completely degenerating into factories of exploitation.
The reform failure caused by the old noble backlash, and the reckless trampling on reform achievents, while the king, the greatest supporter behind the reforms, remained silent, led the remaining enlightened reformists to lose all faith in the country.
These enlightened individuals, disheartened, packed up their belongings and moved south, seeking refuge in the Blue Dragon Kingdom.
Although it was an enemy nation, in the era before the ergence of racism, it was not uncommon to struggle for a living in one's holand today, and flee to an enemy nation to be an official attacking one's holand tomorrow.
No one found it odd.
Especially when the Blue Dragon Kingdom seed a much better place than staying in a decaying country dood to perish.
This,
Instead further strengthened the foundation of the Blue Dragon Kingdom itself.
After all, those daring enough to instigate reforms and strengthen national power were open-minded human elites, who could most unleash their potential in the Blue Dragon Kingdom's own environnt that respects science, respects knowledge, and is open-minded and advanced.
In fact,
Not to ntion the possibility of successful reform implentation in those feudal old nobility-ruled countries.
Even if the natives really learned and reford successfully, they still couldn't withstand the spearhead of the Blue Dragon Kingdom's army. The gap in between isn't sothing that can be changed by simply learning so political and economic policies.
The reason the Blue Dragon Kingdom could experience explosive growth,
besides the outward display of enlightened political and economic policies, behind it lay the essence of several Multi-universe World civilization systems, as well as a vast number of officials exposed to Austin's power.
With such unique advantages, what change could those feudal states' reforms learn and make?
It is rely a gap between a hundred steps and ninety-nine steps.
Whether it is magic theory or scientific technology, it has both reached a terrifying level that others can hardly keep up with.
It is precisely under such factors,
that the army of the Blue Dragon Kingdom was almost invincible, sweeping the southern Central Earth Continent with no country able to withstand for long.
Against this backdrop,
the Ducal Alliance in the south of the Central Earth Continent was entirely penetrated by the Dragon's Nest army.
The Dragon's Nest army continued advancing, crushing one unit after another, with over ten states perished in the Central Earth World
Were it not for considerations of the speed of support domination from behind, the army might have long since swept through and penetrated half of the Central Earth World, converting it into the Blue Dragon Kingdom's ruling territory.
Even so, the entire southern Central Earth World,
regions exceeding tenfold the Blue Dragon Kingdom's territory, had almost been shattered and defeated by the Dragon's Nest army, no longer was there the courage to face the structured army of the Blue Dragon Palace.
anwhile,
several economically struggling countries on the southwestern border directly staged coup uprisings from below, pledging allegiance directly under the Blue Dragon Kingdom's banner.
In these remote areas, due to harsh living conditions, in the struggle against harsh natural conditions, the populace developed brave and valiant traits.
These people are not the docile peasants on the fertile lands of the Central Earth Continent; to gather crowds to fight at the slightest disagreent was not out of the question.
Living in such barren, harsh areas ans not only facing food shortages but also threats from exotic tribes and creatures in the wilderness; docile peasants couldn't survive here.
Additionally, in such dire living conditions, the so-called noble bloodlines of greedy enjoynt in the Central Earth World would not want to co to such places filled with barbarians.
The noble Lords who could establish themselves in these places are all passionate, striving individuals, climbing up from the bottom with rit, and are much clearer on the naked truth of survival of the fittest in this world.
Facing the arrival of the Blue Dragon Kingdom, they recognize clearly the gap in strength.
The discerning residents directly initiated a restoration war, changing allegiance, raising the white flag, and announcing their allegiance to the Blue Dragon Kingdom before the Dragon's Nest army arrived.
This allowed the Blue Dragon Kingdom to incorporate the southwestern remote regions under its control without expending much effort.
However,
expanding rapidly in remote regions isn't without its drawbacks.
Too rapid expansion made it difficult for the vast frontier areas to be digested and absorbed in a short ti, especially with rugged roads making transportation extrely challenging, many areas could not resonate the winds of reform for one or two years.
At the sa ti, the Blue Dragon Kingdom rapidly expanded northwestern frontier areas in a short period and finally bordered the renowned Red Dragon Empire of the western Central Earth Continent,
They were adjacent!
