Chapter 117 Conspiracy
"That's what it is. What do you think? Can you all express your opinion?"

Duke Adel sat on the upper seat, looking energetic. He looked old, but his tone was quite strong, and his state was not what he should be at this age.

"Duke Adair, can we win over Lord Yin Zhao? If we can win over, then we must show our sincerity. If we can't win over, then let him know whose territory the border of the kingdom belongs to."

The young Duke Gedel said with a smile. His eyes were cold and his words were sharp. He was either a friend or an enemy. He was worthy of being a benchmark figure among the hawks among the border nobles.

Duke Gedel, who was born in the Anderson family, had just taken over the position of Duke a few years ago, and his speech was as strong as his age.

Duke Gedel, on the other hand, has long been dissatisfied with the tolerant policies of the border nobles in recent years. He is eager to rekindle the reputation of the border nobles. He is a famous hawk among the border nobles. Unfortunately, the old men in power above are too ruthless. His right to speak was firmly suppressed, and he could not make any big waves at the border.

As a result, unexpectedly, His Majesty King Philip II of the Frankish Kingdom wanted to launch a war against the Orcs. This made Duke Gedel, who was looking for a good opportunity, feel as if he had drank a glass of ice-cold beer on a hot summer day. Glow.

Therefore, he came to the Duke's Palace of Adel Ahmed early, just to win the support of the major nobles on the border here.

Because now he can no longer wait any longer. He is unwilling to continue to sink like this. He wants the reputation of the Anderson family to resound throughout the entire kingdom. He wants to...

Duke Adel glanced at Gedel with a faint look, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.This young man showed his wishes too obviously.

Old men like them were naturally well aware of Duke Gedel's thoughts. Although some old men were a little reluctant, they did not object strongly.

Because they all know that in a chaotic area like the border, strategy alone is not enough. Military meritorious aristocrats build their families with military merits, and there is no bravery and peace talks about military merits.

In their thinking, the border nobles not only need a commander, but also some brave generals, so that the border nobles can gain a foothold in the Frankish Kingdom.

Therefore, Duke Adel did not refute, but asked with a smile:

"anything else?"

At this time, an obese nobleman with a simple and honest appearance stood up. Because he was too strong, he almost lifted the stool under his buttocks when he got up.

No nobles laughed at this funny scene, because they knew very well the methods of this fat nobleman. If they laughed at him today, they would receive some small revenge in a short time. .

Although these retaliations did not cause them to lose much benefit, they were enough to make them look embarrassed.This is also the method of this fat noble. I don't want you to lose profits, I just want you to make a fool of yourself. And those nobles who made a fool of themselves didn't lose any profits, so they didn't mention revenge.

"Count Fabio, do you have something to say?"

Duke Adel looked at the fat Count Fabio with curiosity. He also knew about the fat Count's petty ideas and methods. Even his son was punished by the fat Count because he laughed at him for being too fat. It was a joke, but since this Earl Fabio was only a small punishment, Duke Adel didn't pay much attention.

After all, it is better to suffer some hardships when you are young and grow your memory than to suffer some hardships when you are old.

The obese Count Fabio had a silly smile on his face. He covered his overly proud belly with both hands and said with a cheerful smile:
"No, no! It's just a whim and some small ideas..."

Before Fabio finished speaking, he heard Gedel interrupt with an impatient look:

"Okay, Fat Bio, don't continue to ink here. We are here to find a solution, not to listen to your nagging here."

Fabio just laughed at Gadel's contempt. He looked at Gadel who looked proud, with a hint of coldness in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down.

After all, Gedel is a duke and one of the powerful people on the border. If he, Fabio, dares to use tricks and tease him, this reckless man will definitely turn the table and beat him severely. In front of this arrogant duke , nothing is more important than honor. He doesn't care about the unspoken rules of the nobility. If you anger him, he will definitely hit you in the face with his fist.

Therefore, even a guy like Fabio with outstanding strategies and countless means has no good way to face the reckless Duke Gaidel.

His status is incomparable. He, Duke Gedel, can insult you, Count Fabio, but you, Count Fabio, cannot insult him, Duke Gedel.

Then, even if Count Fabio is very capable, there is no good way to deal with a reckless man like Gedel, because he doesn't care about the evidence or not. He thinks you are, you are, and you are not.

Therefore, Count Fabio just smiled lightly and did not care about Duke Gedel's insult. He still had a simple and honest face. Looking at the impatient Gedel, Count Fabio did not write ink, but said quickly:

"When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman wins! We can wait for the beast tribe to fight with the Yin Zhao lord, wait for them to suffer casualties on each other, and then take advantage of the trend to gather Chaoge City. In this way, the largest city on the river valley plain is now The city belongs to us. Even if His Majesty the King does not allow it, what else can he do? He can only grit his teeth and accept this bitter pill..."

"Haha." Duke Gedel looked at Count Fabio sarcastically and said in a arrogant tone:
"Waiting for the Orcs and the Humans to have casualties on each other? Just because of Chaoge City? I think if we keep waiting, Chaoge City will belong to the Orcs, and there will still be casualties on each other. You think too highly of that Yin Zhao! You have to know what is going on in Chaoge City. Everyone knows that if this city is occupied by the Orcs, we will have to pay ten times the casualties if we want to capture the river valley plain. This is the result of the Orcs not being good at defending the city! Do you know? Ten times the casualties!"

The obese Earl Fabio was not angry at Duke Gaidel's disdain, but continued to explain with a smile:

"Then why wait for the orcs to occupy Chaoge City? We can take action when the defenders of Chaoge City suffer heavy losses. Will Viscount Yin Zhao, who is greatly weakened, still be able to stop us? So, as long as we Isn’t it enough to control this degree?”

Gedel raised his eyebrows and said angrily:
"Isn't this Chaoge City still owned by that Yin Zhao? We put in so much effort, is it just to contribute to him? What are we trying to do?...Could it be that you want to..."

"Yes, isn't it normal for some nobles to die during the war? And I checked, so the Viscount, he is the only remaining legitimate son of the Augustus family, and he still has no heirs..."

"Then this city will also be taken back by the royal family..."

Before Duke Gaider finished speaking, he heard Count Fabio say confidently:

"It's beyond reach! The royal capital is too far away from Chaoge City, and we are too close to Chaoge City... The question now is how this Viscount Yin Zhao can die in an honorable manner..."
