518: Chapter 92, Soone has done dirty_1 518: Chapter 92, Soone has done dirty_1 During his days of leisure, ti always flew.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen days had passed.
The ambassadors from the Warhamr Kingdom were unceasing in their visits, pressing for the Allied Forces to march out.
On this issue, Hudson and the nobles and royal dignitaries of the Moxi Duchy were of the sa mind – they were determined to wait until reinforcents arrived before deploying their troops.
Laughably, after receiving news of the Alpha Kingdom’s counterattack, the Warhamr Kingdom assud the Orcs were on the run.
As a result, the large army led by Joseph II suffered yet another brutal defeat.
By the ti the seventieth of the hundred thousand army had retreated to the west of the kingdom, there were surprisingly fewer than fifty thousand left in the troops accompanying them.
Another epic-level defeat had occurred.
Unsurprisingly, Joseph II and Crown Prince Caesar—the two so-called ‘Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chicks’—suddenly beca the most eye-catching figures in the war.
The orc army really was fleeing, but before doing so, they had no objection to exhausting so of the human race’s vitality.
After the bloody battle just now, everyone knew that the Northern Three Kingdoms were the most determined “Orc Extinguishers” among the human race.
In the upcoming massive counterattack from the human race, the three kingdoms would definitely give their all.
If they do not take advantage of the current situation to annihilate the army of the Warhamr Kingdom, the next encounter would occur in the Orc Empire.
Even a big profitable operation had not satisfied the appetites of the Orcs.
The Warhamr Kingdom’s army on the steel defense line were also in their crosshairs.
If ti permits, they might even make persistent efforts to capture the west of the Warhamr Kingdom in one fell swoop.
Actually, the orc army had already started to move.
However, many places in the western mountain area were easy to defend and hard to attack.
Marshal Borg, whose retirent had been cut short, was elected as the commander by the local aristocrats to oversee the defense of the provinces in the west.
Combined with the limited number of orc infantry who could penetrate deep into the Warhamr Kingdom, unwilling to use their cavalry for attacks, the weak western mountain area of the Warhamr Kingdom had unexpectedly been held.
In this respect, Joseph II was not completely useless.
At least in the previous big battles, he had hamred the orc infantry, laying the foundation for the current defense.
Unfortunately, the Western Aristocrats were unimpressed.
Even when Joseph II led his army to transfer there, they were not particularly welcoming.
More than one noble refused to let the king enter the castle.
Everything was due to interests.
In this major battle, the higher-ranked Eastern Aristocrats, in order to protect their own advantages, had purposefully arranged for the private army of the Western Aristocrats to defend the rear.
If the army had successfully completed the strategic shift, the Western Aristocrats would have no choice but to swallow the bitter pill due to the power advantage held by the Eastern Aristocrats.
Unfortunately, a great defeat had ruined everything.
The Eastern Aristocrats, who originally held the advantage in power, could now not suppress the Western Aristocrats.
In this dispute between the Eastern and Western groups of aristocrats, Joseph II, as king, appeared to remain neutral, but in fact, he was more inclined towards the Eastern Aristocrats.
There was no antidote for regret in politics.
The price had to be paid for a wrong choice, and the king was no exception.
The main forces at the front were still in place.
The balance of the Warhamr Kingdom had not been completely broken.
As long as these troops were preserved, the Eastern Aristocrats could still maintain their military advantage over the Western Aristocrats.
Unfortunately, these reasons were completely aningless to Hudson.
The infighting between the two camps of the Warhamr Kingdom, regardless of who won or lost, would not affect his interests.
It wasn’t necessary for him to take risks for a group of unenthusiastic people.
Not to ntion the Moxi people, who probably wished their old neighbour more misfortune.
The more chaotic the Warhamr Kingdom, the more advantageous for them.
The war had progressed to this stage.
It was no longer about everyone joining hands to resist a common enemy; instead, it was about securing one’s interests.
A qualified ally was one who didn’t stab you in the back.
To ask them to risk heavy losses to send aid was asking too much.
Looking at the hefty gift list, Hudson sighed and said, “Tom, send soone to return the stuff.
Tell them they don’t have to send any more in the future.
This matter is beyond my capabilities and cannot be handled!”
Accepting money to do a job is a matter of principle.
Since he can’t handle it, naturally he should not accept the gift.
In this respect, Hudson had always been restrained.
During his days in the Moxi Duchy, he had always complinted anyone who had given him a gift.
“Alright, Earl!
I’ll arrange for it imdiately.”
With these words, Tom left the room.
Swift and decisive—that was Hudson’s consistent style, which had a direct influence on his subordinates’ work attitudes.
Every command given was implented at the earliest opportunity.
Delay and evasion had not appeared among his small team.
Having dealt with a small matter, Hudson got busy again.
The era of the big counterattack had arrived, and the end of the war was not far off.
After all the hardship and bloody battles, he didn’t want everything to be in vain.
Hudson really was not short of money right now.
Putting aside the several hundred thousand gold coin bonds given by the Moxi people, the spoils of war alone were not a small amount, not to ntion the real big money ca from the undercover grey inco.
Many things were not convenient to convert into cash and the exact number was hard to calculate for the ti being.
In any case, during this war, Hudson had accumulated a wealth that would have been hard to acquire in peaceti.
What was truly precious were not these visible incos, but more of so intangible assets, especially various knowledge resources.
Many things that were rare to see in ordinary tis had, due to the war, flooded the market, and Hudson had benefited a lot.
