Chapter 10 He Didn't Lose
If that is the case, why did Arrelia refuse to start a war and why did she refuse to unify Ionia?
As the warlord with the largest number of troops in the entire Ionia, and she was also the hero who saved Ionia and helped Ionia win the crucial battle of Presidian, if she wanted to unify Ionia, it would definitely be much simpler than others.
Unless she is so powerful, she will not have the confidence to truly unify Aionia.
Yes, she has no confidence, she has no confidence at all.
In the land of birth, the power of the sect is greater than that of all regimes.
Although Arella had many troops, it was impossible to surpass hundreds of disciples of Ionia's sects.
Not to mention that many civilians on the land of birth rely on sects to survive.
To unify Ionia, religion must be pulled down from the position of God.
The king's power is greater than the divine power. Only in this way can Ionia truly rise.
Otherwise, even if Ionia is unified, the rights of religion will still be greater than that of the regime.
The purpose of those religions is to not participate in wars. What can I use to compete with Western countries for such a victory?
By the army, Arriya's Navoli Guards obviously cannot confront the disciples of the entire Ionia sect.
Relying on the strength of the upper class, there are many people in these ancient and powerful sects who are not afraid of Arrilia's blade at all.
In this way, what will Aurelia use to unify Aionia? What will he use to win those powerful sects?
If I can win, Arrelia will definitely not be afraid of a battle.
Because of victory, Ionia will have longer peace.
And if I lose, Ionia will never be unified, and many Ionians will die in the civil war.
If Western countries suddenly invade at this time, Ionia will inevitably be in danger of destroying its country.
These should be the real reason why Arrilia is unwilling to launch a war at this time.
"What are you thinking?" Akali asked as she looked at Su Yu in a daze.
"Nothing." Su Yu turned his eyes to the mottled and old city walls outside the window and said, "I just feel that the peace in Ionia may not last too long."
Arriya could bear it, but the warlords who had some troops under their command could not help it.
Su Yu felt that the war in Ionia was not far away.
"Don't want a war?" Akali asked.
Su Yu smiled and said, "For me, a civilian who is powerless, I naturally don't want to fight."
"Didn't you say before that Ionia needs unification?" Akali asked.
"Can you win?" Su Yu asked with a smile.
"Why can't you win?" Akali asked.
"Can you really win?" Su Yu still asked back.
This time, Akali didn't speak anymore, lowered her head and played with the kuna in her hand, not knowing what she was thinking.
Su Yu got up and walked towards the window, and gently vomited a mouthful of turbidity.
There are many bad places in Ionia, but the air is pretty good.
Peace here has been peaceful for thousands of years, and all living things live in peace. Therefore, there are a large number of natural magics. Many natural magics have become spirits on their own and become natural spirits. When Noxus invaded Ionia, many natural spirits did not hesitate to burn themselves to guard this newborn land.
Although the Ionians are a bit stubborn and pedantic, the people here are all kind. Although there are many sects, the people of those sects never use their power to suppress others. Most sects are in the deep mountains and often do not go down the mountain. Therefore, Ionian has never challenged these religions for so many years.
Without oppression, there will naturally be no resistance.
Without the influence of foreign objects and the invasion of Noxus, the peace in Ionia would last for a long time.
...
Su Yu and Akali stayed in the city for five days, and after five days, Master Yi returned.
"Master, has something big happened?" After Master Yi came back, Akali couldn't help asking.
Master Yi was leaving in such a hurry, something big must have happened in Noxus.
"Well." Master Yi nodded and said, "Half a month ago, Svein overthrew Duckwell's rule in the Immortal Fortress and ascended the throne himself."
As soon as you open your mouth, it’s big news.
"Svein overthrew Duckwell's throne?" Akali asked in surprise.
"Well, Svein has been recuperating since the failure of that war a few years ago and is preparing for this mutiny. He waited for a few years and finally prepared everything a week ago, climbed the Fortress and killed Duckwell." Master Yi said.
"In that failure a few years ago, he was demoted by Duckwell and demoted to the poor. When we all thought that this Noxus famous general would never be hired again in his life, he overthrew Duckwell's rule and ascended the throne." Master Yi said.
"How about Sveinbe and Duckwell?" Su Yu asked at this time.
"It's incomparable. If the commanders of the major federations in Runeland are ranked, then Svein is definitely the unquestionable number one. He has won many battles over the years." Master Yi said.
"But didn't he fail in the famous Precidian Battle seven years ago?" Su Yu asked in confusion.
Did they imagine Svein so much that they would attach so much importance to Svein's ascending the throne?
If the thinking was really that strong, it might not have been defeated by Arrelia, who was only fourteen years old.
In the history books of Ionia, the number and strength of the Noxus Legion led by Svein far exceeded that of the Ionia Resistance Army in that war.
In that war, Svein defeated less and lost to Arrelia in such a situation. It cannot be said how strong he is.
Arrelia is strong, but in Su Yu's opinion, it should not be as good as one person to one army.
Otherwise, after Ionia won the Battle of Precidian, it would not take several years to completely drive the entire Noxus army out of Ionia.
"Actually, he was not defeated." Master Yi suddenly said.
"Not defeat?" Su Yu frowned.
"What does it mean?" he asked.
"Before the Battle of Precidian in Navoli, Duckwell, then the supreme commander of Noxus, directly transferred the five main legions of Svein to find the magic of immortality on the land of the newborn."
"Dakwell only left Svein a reserve army of three thousand men to attack Presidian, but Svein used those three thousand men to defeat Presidian's 20,000 defenders, and the time it took only three days." Master Yi said.
