Your Highness, we can seize the opportunity to enter the Orc Empire."
Hudson immediately promised.
If we want others to take risks, we must first create an opportunity.
At this moment, the Orc Empire is heavily guarded, with countless traps laid in wait for us to fall into. We certainly cannot follow the enemy's plan.
Breaking the stalemate is very simple—war!
Once Hudson leads the troops in person, he will immediately become the hottest topic in the Orc Empire, and the enemy will undoubtedly respond with full force.
By then, a large number of experts will be drawn to the front lines, and inevitably, there will be gaps in the enemy's rear defenses, which is the opportunity.
...
Lutesya.
The Human Alliance Presidium meeting had just begun, and the atmosphere became tense, all because Count Predrag submitted a proposal to the Alliance: "Restart the Continental War."
Everyone knew about the friction between the Alpha Kingdom and the Orc Empire, but no one took it seriously. Similar scenes had occurred countless times and almost periodically.
If one day there were no news of friction between the Alpha Kingdom and the Orcs, it must mean that one of them had fallen.
Conflicts are just conflicts, but suddenly wanting to start a continental war was unexpected for everyone.
The looks in their eyes said it all. Deep down, everyone couldn't help but complain: "We know your Alpha Kingdom is belligerent, but it's only been peaceful for a few days, and you want to restart a continental war again!"
Yet, the geographical position of the Alpha Kingdom is unique. As long as the Alpha Kingdom ignites the flames of war in the front, the Five Nations Alliance will be passively drawn in, and the nations of the South Continent will have no choice but to participate in the war.
That indomitable little pest, the Alpha Kingdom, doesn't worry everyone too much; its ability to withstand gets hit is stronger than its ability to fight. No force on the continent can swallow them whole in one go.
But as for the other four smaller nations in the Five Nations Alliance, that's not the case. If they become the primary target of the Alien Coalition's attack, who knows how long they could hold out!
It took thousands of years for the Human Race to gather the momentum to unite the continent, and no one will allow such a great situation to be destroyed.
"Count Predrag, Your country is too hasty!
Having just destroyed thirteen enemies from the Sanctuary isn't enough; now you're eager to initiate a continental war. Are you ready for this?"
Count Joelchevich said discontentedly.
In recent years, the Alpha Kingdom has been rising too fast, and if it continues to develop at this pace, the Human Race's second-strongest nation will sooner or later change hands.
The Iberian People also have a sense of crisis. In recent years, while vigorously developing the economy, they have also increased military investment.
However, the Continental Army of the Alpha Kingdom still puts pressure on them.
Fortunately, they are far enough apart, otherwise conflicts would have already arisen.
"Count Joelchevich, of course we are not ready, but the opportunity for battle has indeed appeared.
The Orc Empire and the Ancient Alien Alliance are in chaos because of invaders, and the days aren't any better for the other major races. This is the moment when the Alien Coalition is at its weakest.
If we take advantage of their weakened state, we will surely be able to cripple the enemy and maybe even destroy them altogether at minimal cost!"
Count Predrag responded confidently.
The domestic order has been issued, and regardless of how other nations choose, either way, the Kingdom will initiate the war. The difference lies in active participation or passive involvement.
In this approach, the ones truly suffering are the few smaller nations allied to the Alpha Kingdom, which in the short term need to endure massive military pressure, even facing the risk of being wiped out.
Yet politics is like this: when the benefits are large enough, even allies can be betrayed.
Not starting the war silently and forcing them into it, the Alpha Kingdom already shows enough loyalty by lobbying various countries at the Human Alliance before proceeding.
In the face of such a determined leader, the representatives of the Three Kingdoms in the Central Continent who have seats in the Presidium have no choice but to support the decision, albeit reluctantly.
The Alpha Kingdom is determined to initiate the war; unless the Alien Coalition is willing to abandon the Orc Empire, it will certainly send troops to intervene, forcing the three countries caught in the middle to participate passively.
