"This..." Boudica smiled awkwardly, grabbing her hair as if she didn't know what to say.

In the end, it was Joeljos who took the initiative to answer this question.

"When the previous king was alive, he had been fighting everywhere. Although he gained a lot of territory, it also made the surrounding countries hostile to Britain."

All right!The truth is.Lucifer finally understood why these people were reluctant to speak.

This late king is really... powerful, I don't even know what to say.Even Qin Shihuang swept the six kingdoms and did not start wars with all countries at the same time.What's more, there are nine countries in this continent.Not surprisingly, the impression of Britain in other countries is probably not very good. *

no.15 War does not have to be a knife

Despite the severe headache, Lucifer insisted on continuing the meeting.After all, he has already taken over the crown, and now is not the time to complain about the past and find a way to solve the current problem.However, some things still need to be explained in advance.

"Hostility? This is no longer hostility, but a rhythm of wanting to kill people without giving us a chance before we recover. I won't ask how much of that 'many land' is still preserved, but in the future, I think everyone I can focus on my new national policy."

After Lucifer finished speaking, the four dukes also said that the problem was not a big deal.

"It's natural," Gominade said first.

Then came Boudicca.

"no problem."

"I will follow the king's decision." Joel Joss also stated at the same time.

The only person who didn't make a statement was Semiramis.She was looking at Lucifer with an artistic look, and spoke slowly after a while.

"I want to remind you, my lord, that, as you said, the situation in Britain is very dangerous now. If the present situation is not resolved, I am afraid there will be no future."

Lucifer didn't promise anything like big words. He understood that in dealing with the Duchess in front of him, doing things would always be more useful than talking.

"Duke, how much do you know about Holy Rome?" he said directly.

"What do you want to say?" Semiramis subconsciously restrained his smile.

She instinctively thought that Lucifer wanted to use this as an excuse to hold her accountable, but it was just a misunderstanding.Lucifer has never had such an idea. Now is the time of the enemy. Don't say that she has no problem. Even if she does have a problem, as long as it has no impact on the current situation, Lucifer will pretend not to see it. .

"Sorry! There may be something wrong with my statement. I apologize to you in advance, my lady. I mean, can your intelligence network contact Shinra. Especially the members of the Shinra elders."

Lucifer's words didn't fully explain it, but Semiramis already understood somewhat what he meant.This is also her favorite practice.

"Hey, what do you want to do?"

There was no response, but the rhetorical question itself has demonstrated her ability.

"Does that make a difference, even if it's only partially. Good! Tell them that I'm willing to talk to them, and to talk to them for the amount of time. Even if our two countries are really at war right now, they have to talk to them. Without the slightest benefit, the military exploits will only belong to the generals and governors. Tell them this. I believe those people will not have trouble with money." Lucifer carefully analyzed the current situation.

The Senate of Rome has a certain influence in the country. As long as the conditions are opened, it should not be difficult to take advantage of them.

"Stop sending troops? Don't expect too much from those people. The usual small actions don't matter. But they can't make this decision at all, and it's pointless to talk to them, especially if they're worried about the emperor's anger."

Semiramis immediately poured cold water on Lucifer.

"I'm not naive enough to rely on them. I mean, let them argue with other people about the need for this war. No need to stop it completely, just delay the time, and don't offend the emperor at all. Two months, at least one month is the bottom line. As long as they can do it, we will pay them a reward that will make them feel excited." Lucifer explained his intentions.

If you let those guys stop sending troops, considering the anger of the Roman emperor, they probably wouldn't dare to do it.But if it's just a month's delay, they can totally do it.After all, talking nonsense is what they do best.

As long as you talk nonsense and you can get money, this is not a betrayal of the motherland.Those elders should be happy to help out with their wallets.

Semiramis' eyes lit up, thinking that this method was not bad.

"It's not that hard to do. Where are you going to get this money from? I want to remind you..."

"The palace. I looked at the decoration of the palace before. If nothing else, the royal family should have a lot of private money. I am the king now, and this money also belongs to me. It is not difficult to take out some of it."

"The money problem is solved, there is another problem. There are only two months. What about two months later?"

"That's what I want to say now. Britain looks very dangerous, but the key source is not the north, nor the east, but the south. As long as the French in the south are quickly defeated and forced to make a truce and peace, All problems are not problems." Lucifer stood up, he pressed both of them on the table, and looked at the four princes who were sitting.

In the chaotic situation, Lucifer quickly found the crux of the problem.Not north, not east, but south.The north and east are at most looting, and they will retreat without seeing the result, but the south is different, they will not retreat until they are pressed to the ground and rubbed. *

no.16 France will never surrender...unless

What we are facing is a third-line invasion, but as long as the most critical southern side is quickly defeated, the problems on the east and north sides will naturally be resolved.

"Quickly defeat France..., if it can be done, it will definitely make people re-evaluate the current strength of Britain." At this time, Joel Joss thought seriously.

"After solving France, even if Rome comes over, our southern main force can return to help. If they don't take advantage, they will retreat." Boudicca also stated the possibility of follow-up.

As long as it doesn't immediately open fire with the main force to the east, there is room for manoeuvre.

"The main force in the north..." Gominiad was also a little moved at this time.

But Lucifer immediately rejected the idea in her mind.

"The main force in the north can't move, Gominiad, the security of the north is left to you."

"Please rest assured, King."

Having said that, the next foreign policy has been basically clear.

"Everyone, we need to fight hard now. Only a good win in the south can make others temporarily put aside their small thoughts about Britain. It can also win the breathing time for the next few years."

After listening to Lucifer's words, the confidence in the hearts of the archdukes in front of him also increased a lot.At least there is a solution in sight.

"These are the external policies. The next thing I want to talk about is internal issues." Lucifer said while their confidence continued to dominate.

"Internally?" Boudica was a little puzzled.

"I am a new king, not even the blood of the royal family. The problems caused by this can be seen before. I will personally fight for the battle in the south. Whether there will be chaos in this royal city will affect the whole war situation."

"So thoughtful, Wang." Semiramis smiled. In fact, she originally wanted to talk about this problem, and even had a solution.But now it seems unnecessary.

"Next, I will appoint Semiramis as the Prime Minister of Britain. During my absence, you will be solely responsible for the affairs of the royal city."

If there is no such mess around, Lucifer should be stabilizing the domestic situation for a long time, but now he doesn't have that time.Domestic problems can only be left to others temporarily.

At present, there are only four people in front of me who can be trusted, but the other three have tasks, and they are in terms of power.Semiramis is also the most suitable of the four.

"Another unexpected decision." Semiramis was stunned for a moment, then smiled very happily.

This decision was very unexpected, because she had originally wanted to recommend herself to stay and deal with Wang Cheng's funeral.In Lucifer's decision, she thought of it together.

Soon, the meeting was over, and the other three had already left to prepare their own affairs.Lucifer left Semiramis alone.Lucifer was still thinking about how he should speak. After all, this kind of being alone is not like a business, and misunderstandings will cause unnecessary trouble.

On the contrary, Semiramis spoke very generously.

"Okay, everyone else has left. Your Majesty, what do you want to say, can you tell me now?"

"The Duke!"

Lucifer was about to say something, but was immediately corrected by Semiramis.

"Just call me Mira."

"Mira?"

"Yes! This is a nickname that belongs only to you, His Majesty the King!"

At this time, the amorous feelings of Semiramis made Lucifer feel a heartbeat, but immediately, he put this feeling away for a while.

Right thing, right thing!business matters!

"Mila, I want the military habits, personalities, and even information of previous battles of important French generals in the south. Can you do it?"

This is also the reason why Lucifer left her alone.Compared with the overly decent practices of the other three, only she can accept this kind of thing, or even do it.

"Small idea. Phil is so mysterious, I thought you wanted their legion configuration map?" Mira arbitrarily changed the name of Lucifer to Phil.

Although it might be considered disrespectful to a king, Lucifer didn't care much.What he cared more about was her words.

"You can also get this kind of thing?" Lucifer looked at Mira in surprise.

"Of course... not. What are you thinking, Your Majesty Phil! If I could get hold of such classified documents, at least Britain wouldn't be what it is now."

It seemed like a joke, but Lucifer saw a gloom in her eyes.The four archdukes of them love this country very much, and because of this, when this country is facing collapse, they will feel extremely self-blame.

They subconsciously wonder if they haven’t done a good job, and that’s all they can do.but……

"As a minister, you have fulfilled your due responsibilities. This is the way of loyalty, and you don't need to blame yourself. The prosperity of a kingdom may require the efforts of thousands of people, but the decline of a kingdom is often just one person. ." Lucifer's words were not consolation.

Semiramis looked at Lucifer seriously, and after watching it for a long time, he finally smiled.

"Then, for the kingdom to not continue to decline, Your Majesty Phil, work hard! We are all looking forward to a new Britain."

"I will show you hope."

Under the moon, the two walked in different directions with smiles. *

no.17 The troubles of knight girls (for tickets, for flowers)

Strolling in the corridor, he came to the temporary residence prepared for him in this manor. Not long in front of the door, Lucifer found the figure of a certain knight princess who had been waiting there for a long time.She didn't seem to notice her arrival, the hesitation on her face was visible to the naked eye.

"Can't you sleep because of the expedition tomorrow, Leah?" Lucifer came to her side and asked with concern.

Arturia lost her temper because of her surprise.

"Lucifer, ah, no, it's Your Majesty!" She originally wanted to call Lucifer's original name, but she immediately changed her name when she thought of something.

They are masters and slaves, but Lucifer's identity has changed.

"Lea, you are my exclusive knight now, so you don't need to be so polite. Just call me 'MASTER'." Looking at the knight girl in front of her, Lucifer gave her a certain name out of some bad taste. .

Although based on the current situation, there probably won't be a 'world famous painting' like 'You are my MASTER'.But for now, that's all it takes, and you can't ask for too much.

"Master... Master. You were just discussing with the four Grand Dukes about what happened in Britain. Is the situation serious?"

"It's nothing. It's bad, but it's not the worst. We've got a solution, and now it's just a matter of going according to plan. Rest assured, I'll bring new life to this country, which is one of our agreement between."

The next most important thing is to defeat the three French legions. Fortunately, Lucifer has some experience on this point.

Recalling the previous world, I had fought against the undead team, and there was a certain God-devouring Pope.Even directly involved in Lothric's war against the unknown king because of the timeline.

Compared with the previous opponent, the enemy in front of him is nothing.Their only advantage may be quantity.

"Well, I believe Lu... Master."
