Setting aside other influences, it has barely managed to contend with the Nobles of the North within the county.

“What a bloody mess of a life!

I really don’t know whether I should envy you or feel sorry for you.

It’s clear, however, that you’re relishing every moment of this.

So, does this mean that you’re already prepared to confront Baron West, or perhaps you’ve found a way to contend with the intervention of the Felix Family?”

A question Knight Adrian had been waiting to ask.

From the Koslow Clan’s standpoint, they naturally hope that Hudson would prevail in this conflict.

As long as Hudson seizes the position of prefectural governor, coupled with the support from various branches of the family, not much time would be required to establish a solid footing amongst the intermediate aristocracy.

Taking this step, the Koslow Family can be considered a force to be reckoned with in the Southeastern Province.

Even seen from the whole Kingdom of Elf, they have acquired the most fundamental right to voice their opinions.

The entry threshold for the Kingdom Noble Council is a viscountship with actual power as a prerequisite for membership.

Although the actual power to influence is limited, it is nominally the highest authority in the Kingdom of Elf, having the ability to decide on major affairs of the kingdom.

The most direct benefit is greater security; if one is oppressed by a major noble, they can protest in the Kingdom Council.

The specific effectiveness is uncertain, but as long as the issue is made public, most things must follow the rules.

This is why the Dalton family, powerful though it is, cannot monopolize power in the Southeastern Province.

“Stop guessing.

I didn’t say any of those things.

If word gets out and causes any repercussions, I won’t admit to it.

The only thing I want to do now is to constantly enhance my own strength.

I dare not dream too big, but as long as my two infantry units are trained, who do you think it’s important to be the Prefectural Governor?”

Hudson said with a cold smile.

Confidence comes from contrast.

The underperformance of his peers made Hudson increasingly confident.

Strategic planning and all such things are pure nonsense.

Most of the noble lords had no plans and, like ordinary people, were simply living day by day.

The comrades that Hudson had chosen were basically of this caliber.

Knight Adrian was considered one of the most strategic among them.

The superior ones, unfortunately, were not within the range of Master Hudson’s recruitment efforts.

Simply put, they were not included in their games.

Ability does not equate to strength.

Until the completion of the original accumulation, the most awesome guy is the same as an ordinary person.

Directly excluding them from the circle and not giving them the opportunity for original accumulation, the overall situation will soon teach them what to do.

The situation in Wharton County is still unclear, but the rivalry between the two major forces in Layton County is already very clear.

Anyone presuming to become a third pole would be jointly attacked by the two major powers.

Hudson had already mourned for Baron Ezekiel.

While capable, unfortunately, his personal strength cannot back up his ambition.

This is a tragedy of the grassroots.

If they do not take a gamble, everyone probably would not even know that there is such a person in Layton County.

After painstaking plans and careful preparation, to contribute ten times the effort and to take the plunge at the most appropriate time just to be most completely subdued by Baron West.

Completely victorious in plotting outside the battlefield, utterly defeated in battles on the battlefields.

Struggling to resist only makes the story more tragic.

Maybe wandering poets like tragic heroes, but the noble world does not pity failures.

In contrast, Hudson is much more cunning.

Aware of his own lack of initial strength, he stayed in his territory and did not interfere with outside events.

The only significant thing he did was to boast, not jut himself but through the mouths of his former colleagues.

Stories, mixing truth and falsehood, woven together, fooled many people.

Only after the completion of the initial accumulation and the transformation of fame into strength, did he gradually step onto the front stage.

Half of the two infantry brigades couldn’t fight, but to outsiders, these two infantry brigades were considered elite.

People always like to believe in what they see.

Hence, Hudson let everyone see “two elite infantry units”.

After all, the noble lords up high, how could they care about the movement of personnel below.

The first brigade performed long ago, and now it’s the second brigade that often appears in public.

In everyone’s inherent cognition, the first brigade established in the previous year is more formidable.

What they don’t know is that Hudson is merely playing a game of words.

The current first brigade can be described as a new army, and the second brigade stationed outside, apart from a small number of personnel changes, 90% of the soldiers are from the original first brigade.

The first brigade is hiding in the territory every day, carrying out military training on one hand and watching Orc slaves work on the other.

If they don’t achieve something through their training, they won’t appear.

Once again, the bluff worked and directly established the opposition of the two major forces in Layton County.

If there weren’t two “elite infantry units” in Hudson’s hands, relying solely on the allies in the hall, they couldn’t contend with the Nobles of the North of the county.

The primary reason for dare to take such risk naturally lies in the tacit understanding with Baron West.

After all, it’s a war of words, whoever backs down is a loser.

Even if something seems wrong, Hudson does not think that Baron West would take the risk, after all, he is an illegitimate child, isn’t he?
