Chapter 292 Chapter 290 Situation II

The Fog Star Dominion has naturally become the territory of the Marquis of Rhine. After bringing this place under the rule, the power of the Marquis of Rhine has undoubtedly doubled. In fact, it has become the second largest in terms of strength after Star City The power of Starlight Kingdom.

  The Marquis of the Rhine suddenly called himself the Grand Duke of the Rhine in the summer of this year, and the territory he controlled became the land of the Principality of the Rhine.

  When the news reached Xiu Yin, Xiu Yin just smiled.

   This incident is actually not unexpected. As early as the spring, the eldest prince Lance had a lot of troubles in his capital circle.

  One of the biggest things is that Lance used his right to control the capital to successively confer several new Marquis and Earl Viscounts.

  The purpose is very clear, it is to win over the forces close to him, and even some people who are not nobles are directly promoted to the height of viscount by Lance.

   "The Marquis of the Rhine claimed to be the Grand Duke, which may have something to do with the reason..."

  Shu Yin closed the book in his hand, and picked up the double cup of coffee and milk tea on the table with his right hand. This was made by Ianna for him. The gentle aroma wafted over, and Xiu Yin took a sip with great enjoyment.

  He has enjoyed three days of such leisure.

   "But the good times seem to be coming to an end again."

  Through the window of the mansion, Xiu Yin looked at the northern sky.

Almost every time when he looked up at the sky, Xiu Yin would lament that the sky in this world is really blue, which is unbelievably blue, because in the original world, only in textbooks can one see that the sky used to be blue. Because when I look at the sky at that time, it seems that there will always be only one layer of gray.

   "The Archduke of the Rhine...it seems that he can't hold back anymore..."

  There is a small rattle on the table, which Yianna prepared for Xiu Yin.

  When Xiu Yin was thinking, Ianna didn't want to disturb Xiu Yin, so she found a bell somewhere and glued a wooden handle underneath it, thus turning it into a rattle.

  dingine—

  After Huin lightly rang the rattle, the door was pushed open, and Ianna walked in.

   "Master."

  Yianna stood respectfully by the door, waiting for Xiu Yin's order.

   Xiu Yin sighed secretly in his heart, it seemed that after his eighteenth birthday, he felt that there seemed to be an inexorable sense of estrangement between himself and Yianna.

   "Please call Irwin and Uncle Rainer, and say that there is an urgent military meeting."

   "Yes, master."

  After hearing what Xiu Yin said, Yianna immediately turned around and went out, but she didn't close the door. She knew that Xiu Yin should go to the conference hall when the meeting was held.

  After Ianna left, Xiu Yin drank the last coffee and milk tea in the cup, then stood up and walked out of the room.

  At the beginning, the Viscount's mansion was built very large, and the meeting hall has become more and more stylish after several renovations.

  When Xiu Yin sat alone on the new lord chair made of monster skin specially made for him in the conference hall, Xiu Yin let out a sigh of relief in his heart.

  It's really hard to be a lord...

   This is the most real thought in his mind at this time.

   "If it is possible, I really want to be a child of a family that is almost affluent..."

  …

  When Xiuyin rested his arms on the side of the chair and rested his cheeks in his hands, he was thinking wildly, Irwin and the others arrived soon.

  Hearing that it was a military meeting, Irwin called several captains to come along.

  In fact, they were all these old mercenaries, so Irwin felt that it was a pity to let Carbein go. They hadn't had fresh blood here for too long.

  After Irwin Reiner and the others were done, Huin said something about the Principality of the Rhineland and the Grand Duke of the Rhineland.

   "The Grand Duke of the Rhine? This is really a ridiculous idea, so that the eldest prince Lance has more excuses, and maybe the army of the Mexican Empire will intervene again."

   "Oh, this time the Starlight Kingdom has come to an end..."

  Hearing this news, everyone’s reaction was mostly to sing bad news about the century-old foundation of Starlight Kingdom.

   Xiu Yin still dragged his cheek with one hand, silently watching everyone's views on this matter, but obviously, Xiu Yin seemed to have a different view.

  Although most of these mercenaries were only warriors and were not good at some strategies, they could see from Xiu Yin's expression that their speech did not please the lord.

   "My lord's thoughts on this matter are..." Irwin could guess a little of Xiu Yin's thoughts.

  Xiu Yin put his hands down and sat up straight. There was no smile or a confident look on his face. This expression of Xiu Yin made these people feel that the problem was not simple.

  Shu Yin never had such an attitude when facing Godin of the Bone Knights.

   According to their understanding, the impact of the Duchy of the Rhine on the Starlight Kingdom should be a good opportunity for the Morrowind Territory to take advantage of the development...

   "Uncle Irwin, if you were the Grand Duke of the Rhine and there were a rabbit and a tiger by your side, who would you hit first?"

   "Of course it's a rabbit!"

  Irwin answered immediately without even thinking about it. Is there any reason to think about it?

  So the expression on Irwin's face immediately froze, yes, there is no need to think about it.

  The rest of the people also seemed to understand the meaning of Xiu Yin's question, and they also understood the question that didn't even need to be thought about.

   "That is to say, that Rhine guy will hit us first!?"

  Scarface Zack was the last to react, and immediately yelled out.

   A dull atmosphere began to permeate the chamber.

The Principality of the Rhine is very different from the Dominion of Haider. The Bone Knights defeated by Xiu Yin had seriously damaged more than half of its combat power under the Star City, and even used some "tricks" to win the battle. A fluke.

   And the Rhine Duchy of the Grand Duke of the Rhine, after acquiring the territory of the Fogstar Dominion, its strength can be said to be at the height of the sky.

   "And in a sense, Starlight City is not as powerful as the current Rhine Principality."

  Xu Yin's sudden words brought everyone's focus back to Xiu Yin.

  The current strength of the eldest prince Lance is only in the capital circle. Although there are many generals, in terms of overall resources, it is actually not as good as the Rhine Principality, which controls a large amount of land.

   And there is another important point. After the Duchy of the Rhine annexed the Dominion of the Fog Star, it has been in a state of silence. There is no other news about the specific situation except that the Marquis of the Rhine proclaimed the Duke.

   Once the Principality of the Rhine really takes action against the Morrowind leader, I am afraid that the Morrowind leader will be really difficult to deal with.

  In the dull atmosphere, a messenger suddenly broke in.

   "Report—my lord, urgent report from Huangshui Town!"
