"and then?"

Looking at Chen Heng, Oliman's face was solemn, and then he spoke.

She had realized the importance of North-South trade before.

But before that, she was more aware of the huge profits hidden in it.

After Chen Heng's explanation, she was shocked to realize how important this trade was to the troubled northern lords.

"Then, the Principality will come forward to reward and support the lords who have made meritorious deeds in the war."

Chen Heng continued: "In the past, most of the mainland territories ignored the wars waged by the northern lords in the north, believing that it was the matter of the northern lords themselves."

"But in fact, if the lords in the north did not resist the pressure from the desert in the north, the entire kingdom would have to face enormous pressure, and those nobles would not have had such an easy life."

Princess Oliman nodded silently.

Indeed, in the past, except for a few people, no one cared about the situation of the northern lords at all.

Everyone thinks that they should defend against the alien races from the desert, which is what they should do.

On the one hand, it is because it is none of their business, and on the other hand, it is also because according to the practice of this era, the affairs of their own territory belong to themselves.

A lord has all the control over his territory, so he naturally has an obligation to surround him.

"Under normal circumstances, naturally."

Chen Heng continued: "But the situation in the north is unusual."

"Resisting the pressure from the desert is not easy for the northern lord."

"If the current situation continues, the situation will be very bad."

"How will it be?"

Oliman asked subconsciously.

"War is something that requires investment. If the lords in the north cannot benefit from the war and cannot obtain assistance from the kingdom, then there will be only two outcomes."

Chen Heng spoke softly and said: "Under the constant losses, these northern lords will either collapse because of this, and the kingdom will lose its northern barrier, or let these northern lords find other ways out."

War has a cost.

Food, weapons, equipment, and even the input of manpower, these things are costs.

When the gains in a war cannot offset the losses, then losses are inevitable.

And when the lords lost because of this, they had only two choices left.

Either, choose to die in the steady stream of losses, or find another way out.

"By that time, most of the northern lords will look for other ways out."

Chen Heng spoke softly and said with a sigh, "And what will be the way out for them?"

"What will it be?"

Oliman subconsciously followed Chen Heng's thoughts and entered into thinking.

When the lords of the north cannot afford the steady losses and choose to find another way out, what will their choice be?

The answer is actually pretty obvious.

"They will abandon their territory and go south with their own army."

Chen Heng said softly: "Since the war with the aliens can't make up for my losses, then I just have to grab it from other places."

"At that time, the lords in the north will inevitably go south and fight against the other lords of Kutu."

"At that time, it will be a storm."

Oliman shivered uncontrollably.

A group of northern lords who couldn't bear the loss and had to go south, this would be a devastating result for the Kutu Kingdom.

In particular, they found that the southern lords and the army of Kutu were far easier to deal with than the alien races in the desert.

Although the lords in the north are poor, they are definitely the strongest group because they face wars all the year round.

In addition, at that time, they had no way out, and the power they burst out was absolutely astonishing.

At that time, no matter what the result is, the entire Kutu country will inevitably face a huge storm.

And without the resistance of the lords in the north, the alien races in the desert will definitely take the opportunity to set off, putting the Kutu Kingdom under enormous pressure.

Just thinking of this consequence made Oliman tremble.

"So, even in order to avoid this outcome, the kingdom must support the lords in the north and let them support as much as possible."

Looking at Oliman, Chen Heng spoke softly and said so.

"But, is it directly supported by the royal family?"

Oliman continued to speak and asked seriously.

"Of course not."

Chen Heng shook his head and said, "Support for the lord of the north must be very expensive."

"These costs, if fully supported by the royal family, will inevitably lead to the weakening of the royal family step by step, creating opportunities for those lords."

"So, the lords from all over the world must also contribute."

"But how is this done?"

Oliman asked, with a very serious attitude and some anticipation on his face.

Before she knew it, she had thrown herself into this conversation wholeheartedly.

Chen Heng's conversation seemed to have opened up her vision so far, leading her to look at problems from an angle she had never had before.

This feeling was something she had never had before.

Therefore, without knowing

During the sleep, her mood changed from the original casualness to the solemnity in the back, to the expectation and seriousness now.

"Under normal circumstances, it is naturally impossible."

Chen Heng continued to speak, looked at Oliman and said, "However, there is an exception."

"That is, the opportunity to acquire territory."

"You can tell them to lead the army to the North. As long as they have the ability to take root in the desert and successfully defend that area, they will be recognized as the lords of that area and given them the opportunity to become real nobles."

"It's still possible..."

Oliman was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly.

Yes.

The nobles cherish the strength of their family very much. Under normal circumstances, they are never willing to waste any wealth of their family to support the lords in the north.

However, territory is an exception.

In this world, no matter who they are, they all yearn for a piece of territory that belongs to them.

If there is a chance to acquire a territory and become a real noble, even if it requires paying something, I am afraid that a lot of people will be moved.

Especially those who had no chance to inherit the territory, no chance to become the second son of the noble, or even other children.

And in order to gain territory, they must bring people into battle in person, go there to fight against alien races in the desert, and seize their territory.

And these actions will indirectly reduce the pressure on the northern lords, reducing the pressure they need to face.

The whole process does not require much money or effort.

All the kingdom needs to pay is the recognition of these lords.

Thinking of this, Oliman's eyes became brighter and brighter.
