The Lisenberg Empire has not yet declined to the point where it has to sell land for money.

It would not work to directly create an excuse to provoke a war. This would instantly cause his newly established image of a human hero to collapse and turn him into a warmonger.

It is best to avoid things like tearing up the encirclement by hand.

After much deliberation, there was only one last way left in front of him.

Territorial displacement.

Replace it with the Risenberg Empire with territories worth no less than these territories.

It sounds outrageous, but it is the only feasible solution.

As long as there is enough interest, there is nothing that cannot be traded.

He wanted to break away from the Risenberg Empire, and the Risenberg Empire didn't want him to stay.

With Camille's help, word of his deeds will soon spread across the continent.

His reputation will easily surpass that of the royal family of the Lisenberg Empire.He even had the opportunity to replace the existing royal family within the Risenberg Empire.

The rulers of the Lisenberg Empire have changed three times. Who can guarantee that this kind of thing will not happen a fourth time?

Replacing territory is feasible, but the question is where to replace it?

First, exclude the Luojia Kingdom.

Even if it is just for the central forest and the Well of Life, the value of Luojia Kingdom is greater than these new territories.

You cannot do losing trades.

Apart from the Luojia Kingdom, he didn't have many bargaining chips.

He turned his attention to the map, and after thinking hard, his eyes fell on the north of the map.

Kingdom of Upper and Lower Sarsen.

The kings of both countries committed shameful acts of adultery, leading the way for the goblins and even providing supplies.

The letters they wrote to the Blue Flame Conglomerate were also taken away as Roland's trophies.

These handwritten letters will be reported through the Tiamat News Agency.

The reputations of these two kings would soon be tarnished.

There is no need for a pretext for war to attack a country where a person is raped.Roland's eyes suddenly lit up.

He thought of some famous historical event.

The Prussian-Austrian forces annexed Schleswig and Holstein.

He stood up suddenly and calculated the transaction value of the two countries.

The Kingdom of Upper Sarsen is richer and has a larger territory, covering almost 53 square kilometers.

The Kingdom of Lower Sarsen only has 39 square kilometers and a standing army of [-]. The maximum explosive force can only produce more than [-] troops.

Roland, who had experienced the goblin war, didn't take this enemy seriously at all.

Although the armies of the Light, Dark Temple and Oro Kingdom that came to help were gone, he still had the Druid Skitarii Army and the Elf Army.

He also has more than 3 human troops recruited in the name of the Light Divine Temple Guards Army.

Defeating two small countries is enough.

It was more than enough to capture these two countries and exchange the territory he wanted with the richer Kingdom of Upper Sarsen with its excellent port.

The Kingdom of Lower Sarsen was certainly within his grasp.

A year ago, King Geralt of Lower Sarsen once led nearly ten thousand people to attack his territory brazenly. Now he personally led an army of one hundred thousand to pay a return visit with ten times the courtesy. It was not too much.

The corners of Roland's mouth rose slightly.

The chips are ready and the transaction can be carried out at any time.

Although the two kings will resist, their rebellion is just farce to add to the fun.

He is not afraid of the seven major goblin chaebols, so what are two small, rebellious human countries?

The only thing you have to pay attention to in this war is to move quickly.

Rape is the public enemy of the entire human race. Not only him, other countries also have the right to punish adultery.He had to get ahead of these people.

Feilin is not here, and he still has Yanis and Sandra.

Agnes used his power to suppress the power of the abyss, and there would be no problem as long as she didn't fight tooth and nail.

Both Agnis and Sandra can easily complete the task, but Roland plans to take charge of the expedition himself.

The war to destroy the country will refresh a lot of achievements, and he must personally serve as the coach.

He needs these damn achievements.

It's not difficult to lead a military expedition in person, but who can I leave it to in the country?

He must establish the domestic power framework.His departure was also a good opportunity to see how his most loyal ministers were doing.

Familiar faces passed in front of him.

Of course, his most trusted person is Melanies. When he is away, Melanies will act as his agent and be responsible for making important decisions.

Her political skills were average, but she was from a royal family anyway. She had made significant progress during this period, and she knew what he wanted better, and that was enough.

Apart from her, the one Roland trusted the most was Granny.

Without any hesitation, he crossed out Granny's name.

Politics is like this, it's completely out of line for her, so let her follow the army and kill people as much as she likes.

He trusted Egilina, but she had little political talent either.

Who can expect a simple girl who spends her days watching the stars to understand politics?

Too.

Nepotism is the beginning of disaster, and he must use his talents accordingly.

The counselor Woma is very resourceful, but he is a descendant of the giants after all.People who are not from my race must have different feelings, and Roland's trust in him is far less than that of others.

Even considering only talent, Woma is better at intelligence and strategy, and running a country is not his specialty.

Ruit...

Too.

His advantage is integrity, but his disadvantage is that he is too upright.Ruit is better suited to be a religious leader than an official.

Roland had a headache. With so many capable generals under his command, could he not find someone who could be prime minister?

Although I don’t want to admit it, it seems to be the case at present.

Excellent bureaucrats need to be selected step by step and promoted on a merit-based basis, which takes time.

What should we do now?

Almost all the officials from Gruul Province came to Gracia to take refuge. Their talents were enough to manage the territory, but Roland could not trust them at all.

They can be used to fill the bureaucracy, but for such an important position as Prime Minister, one must use one of their own.

After much deliberation, the most qualified person is probably Fandel.

Do we really want to use an elf as prime minister?

Roland hesitated.

Fandel's talents are enough to serve as prime minister of the empire, not to mention the kingdom's prime minister, but his strong elf chauvinism cannot be concealed at all.

If he becomes prime minister, it will inevitably trigger conflicts between humans and elves.

Roland had a headache and couldn't help but ask the system.

“How much does it cost to resurrect the best prime ministers in history?”

The system did not answer, but slowly printed a question mark.

Roland knew that when the system displayed question marks, it was probably because there was something wrong with his thinking.

Just as he was deep in thought, there was a knock on the door.

From this artistic knocking rhythm, he could directly identify the person's identity.

His chief minister, Wind Chime.

Chapter 155 It turns out she is really a genius

The study door opened, and the radiant wind chime priest walked in.

People feel refreshed when happy events happen, and at this moment, the wind chime is graceful and charming, even more attractive than Melanie.

Even though Roland was used to seeing beautiful women, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Seeing Roland staring at him, Feng Ling was not embarrassed, but instead walked proudly with his chest raised.

"Your Majesty, why do you keep staring at His Majesty's chest?"

"Nothing, you are extraordinarily beautiful today." Roland answered honestly.

After spending several months together, he learned a little more about wind chimes.

This is a very simple elf girl, versatile, capable in both military and political affairs, and very loyal.

She is never pretentious and always speaks her mind about everything.

Roland liked her personality very much, and he didn't have to worry about anything when speaking in front of her.

"Although it is rude to say this to a servant of the goddess, I can feel your sincerity, thank you."

Feng Chime smiled and sat down in front of Roland.

Seeing that Roland's expression was a little tangled, her gossip soul was ignited, and she asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, the resurrection of the World Tree is a great event, what are you still worried about?"

Before Roland could speak, her eyes lit up and she said to herself: "Your Majesty, I understand! You must want to choose a concubine! When you came to the throne, you were worried about national affairs and missed the best time to choose a concubine. Now make up for it. It’s not too late either.”

"Wait, what are you talking about? When did I think about this?"

Roland looked at the wind chime speechlessly, and asked teasingly: "How did you know that I want to choose a concubine?"

"Your Majesty, I am the high priest, and it is my duty to persuade believers to breed offspring. Even if you don't have this idea, I still want to advise you to choose a concubine as soon as possible."

"Thank you for your concern. Now is not the time. Besides, I can't choose ordinary people to enter the harem. If they die of old age, it will disturb my heart."

"Why not?"

Feng Chime looked at Roland in surprise and asked in confusion: "Have you and Queen Melanies lived together for several months without any movement?"

Roland was a little overwhelmed by this question, so he had to raise his tea cup to cover it up.

Feng Chime looked at Roland and said softly: "The queen and I often meet. She is fine."

"What do you mean, is it my problem?" Roland glared at the wind chime angrily.

No man thinks he has a problem in this area, let alone he really has no problem, he violently.

"Since there is nothing wrong with you and Queen Melanies, what went wrong?"

Roland didn't want to continue the discussion, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "This is my private matter and I don't want to discuss it. Do you have any business to come to me for?"

He said the word "business" very seriously, just to remind Feng Ling to stop talking nonsense and talk about business quickly.

Feng Chime looked at Roland with a serious face and said seriously: "Your Majesty, I must correct your mistake. This is by no means a private matter, but a state matter."

"A king without heirs will cause a huge empire to fall apart. You don't want the huge country you worked so hard to conquer to fall apart and have no one to inherit it."

Her expression was extremely serious, which made Roland feel a little nervous.

Before he could speak, Feng Chime continued: "I know what you want to say. You are a super strong man and a man who wants to reach the top of power. It doesn't matter if you have no descendants, right?"

Roland said nothing and took a sip of tea to express his acquiescence.

"Your Majesty, you are confused!"

Feng Chime looked at Roland sadly, frowned slightly, and sighed: "Since you want to take the path of being strong, you will definitely not have time to deal with mundane things in the future, right?"

"Yes."

"Then who do you plan to hand over the country to? A certain minister or your heir?"
