You and me under the world tree

Before the guard's voice fell completely, the clear crackling sound appeared in the palace.

Almost subconsciously, the teacup in the elderly king's hands split in two.

No one knows whether the quality of the teacup itself is not good, or the king subconsciously erupted with a powerful hand.

In the end, in the Danish court, only a voice of gnashing teeth lingered.

"Gothic, Gitland... very good, the huge Danish kingdom is the gateway to the northern peninsula! Doesn't that stupid ass in Otval know what he is doing! Isn't he afraid that this kind of disaster will happen to him !"

At the end, the king could not help but take a deep breath.

"Gitland probably isn't that stupid yet."

At this moment, anyone can understand what Elf is worried about.

Because the Kingdom of Gitland is on the border, this means only one thing for Denmark: they may be fighting on both sides.

No matter how you look at it, this is not a good thing.

"Your Majesty! A letter has arrived from the Kingdom of Gitland!"

Just when the palace seemed more and more dull, such a voice came from outside the palace.

And after seeing the contents of the letter, Elf couldn't help tearing up the letter.

"Otwal! You bastard!"

He roared with all his might.

The old king was hoarse in the court, but no one dared to respond to him.

In the end, he fell down with a sudden plop.

"His Majesty?"

"His Majesty!"

I don't know why I feel a little uncomfortable today. After taking a nap, I feel a headache, and then my jaw is also uncomfortable.

Chapter 99: Isolation

In the end, the court in the heroic city of Denmark was in chaos.

After the king fell, they were so anxious that they finally dared to act.

First of all, they hurriedly helped the king who had fainted suddenly, and put him on the throne.

Immediately afterwards, he began to greet the court physician, and then asked the guards to take the king back to the inner hall first.

After the king's affairs were settled, the flustered courtiers turned their attention to the pile of shredded papers on the ground.

In fact, they were also very curious about what kind of information could make His Majesty the king faint in anger.

So, they quickly put together the torn letter paper with all their might.

Fortunately, Elf didn't tear it too much when he was angry. The pieces of the letter paper were very large, so they could be spliced ​​together quickly.

And after they were completely spliced ​​together, the courtiers couldn't help showing that lingering bitter expression.

In fact, the content of that letter is very simple.

Apart from those fancy modifiers and oblique words, the meaning it expresses is actually very simple.

They want money, land, people, and horses.

Thinking about it carefully, the Kingdom of Gitland is not stupid enough to directly send troops to attack Denmark.

After all, for the current surrounding kingdoms, the whole of Denmark is a cake with a bit of teeth.

Although its geographical location is slightly superior and it is an important strategic place, in fact, there are very few places where it can be truly planted, and these lands are east or south.

As for the other territory that should be divided into the northern peninsula, it produces more minerals.

But the entire northern peninsula, including as far away as Iceland and Greenland, is famous for its minerals.

Perhaps for the Gothic Kingdom, the several huge mine veins owned by Denmark are enough to make them look sideways, but the Kingdom of Gitland does not have this necessity.

Not for anything else, because for Gitland, the Valley of the Wolf alone is already coveted.

For this kingdom sandwiched between Norway and Denmark, the only thing they can offer is a large amount of minerals.

Whether it is trade export or domestic use in the kingdom, it is enough.

If the entire Danish kingdom could be coveted by Gitland, it might be the few horse farms in the kingdom that specially supply horses for the cavalry.

However, it would not be a good thing to go to war with Denmark just for the sake of the racecourse.

After all, the situation in Denmark is not good now.

The king of Gitland is very shrewd. He knows that what Denmark is now involved is not only the interests of the kingdom.

More importantly, it is destined to be the Gothic kingdom, the property of the irascible princess.

But now, if Gitland sends troops to attack without authorization, it is tantamount to grabbing meat from the princess's bowl.

Maybe if the benefits are not reaped, it will cause a commotion.

After all, once the interests of the kingdom are involved, it will be difficult to deal with it no matter how good the relationship between Gitland and Goth is.

And if you want to continue to maintain a good relationship with Goth, the most important thing is not to test the bottom line in this regard at will.

Forget about grabbing meat in a bowl.

So this battle cannot be fought at will no matter what.

Thinking about it carefully, what Gitland wants to do is to intimidate and reap some benefits.

However, even if they understood this point, the courtiers did not dare to speak indiscriminately on this point.

Because anyway, this kind of mess is just speculation.

Is Gitland really pure bragging, or does she really want to fight.

Nobody knows about that, because it's just a decision anyway.

Or Otwal can lead with a word.

"No matter what, this kind of deterrence has to be recognized."

Finally, such a voice came from the palace.

At the same time, along with such words, sighs began to echo.

Because as they said, even if Otwal was just deterrent, because of various concerns, it is impossible for them to launch a war some time before the beginning of spring.

However, Denmark now dare not bet on the possibility of this no matter what.

What if?

What if Otwal really twitched his head and let his army start attacking the northwest frontier?

The Kingdom of Denmark really can't afford to bet on this kind of thing.

"Okay, this kind of thing is not up to us to decide."

At the moment when all the courtiers were sighing, someone said this.

"Let's wait for His Majesty the King to make a decision on this matter."

"However, I'm afraid His Majesty the King won't be able to wait. It won't take long for the Gothic princess to be killed in the city."

In the end, there was another silence in the palace.

At this moment, they didn't know what to say at all.

"Denmark...can it survive?"

No one dared to give a definite answer to this sudden question.

I don't want to, and I dare not.

They can only wait for the leader to make a decision.

…………

On the other side, the King of Denmark has been sent to his own bed.

In the recent period, due to various reasons, he has always been unable to sleep well, and this is even more so after the full-scale war with Goth.

And even after he was in a state of panic and fell into a coma, his expression was extremely distorted.

In the darkness, he always felt that he seemed to see the destruction of the entire kingdom.

And even the City of Heroes is burning!

Denmark……

The title of this ancient kingdom means heavy pressure for every generation of kings.

Because this name has been passed down for a long time.

Every generation of kings does not want the name of the kingdom, which was resounded by Harald, the king of war teeth, to decline in his own hands.

The education he received since he was a child made him feel extremely proud of this title.

But when you really encounter difficulties, you will feel endless pressure.

Inherit the name of the ancestors?

How can this kind of thing be so simple.

Many kings have almost reached the point of not seeking merit, but seeking no fault.

And when this pressure reaches the limit, it will evolve into all kinds of nightmares.

Even now, Elf feels like he's back when he made the decision.

If time could go back and give him another chance to make a new choice, would he join forces with Elmrich and Burgundy to attack Dietrich?

And a little further, will he have various conflicts and conflicts with Goth?

Even, will he still take into account his self-esteem and turn a blind eye to the rise of the Netherlands?

Not to mention the question of whether the war happened, if at this time, even if he had an ally by his side, it would not seem so uncomfortable now.

And vaguely, there seemed to be a voice lingering in his ear.

It is necessary to find allies, even if you have to pay a huge price, this is better than destroying the country.

ally……

"Cough cough cough cough..."

In the room of the inner temple, Elf coughed.

And this intense coughing made the maids anxious.

"Your Highness! Your Highness!"

Some things are not something they can decide to deal with after all, so they quickly look for someone who can deal with it.

And when Prince Luosige came into the room, he saw that his father had opened his eyes.

"Allies! We need allies!"

Opening his bloodshot eyes, Elf roared.

"We cannot fight alone! No!"
