Ever since the war between the Archduke of the North and the King, the Kingdom of Prussia has been torn apart. The largest real nobles are the Archduke of the North, the Marquis of Cambridge, and the Earl of Libya.
For these big nobles in the field, title is not important, what is important is strength.
But coincidentally, these three real nobles can use their titles to distinguish their strengths.
The Grand Duke of the North controls five provinces, and his strength can even rival that of the royal family.
The Marquis of Cambridge directly controls the territory of one province and can control the military power of another province, and can control up to two provinces.
The Earl of Libya, however, could only control Orange.
Even the rise of Duke Felger made the Earl of Libya, an old lion king, feel in danger.
From the king's point of view, the most threatening forces come from the north and west. As for the southern region, as long as the Archduke of the North and the Marquis of Cambridge are killed.
The Earl of Libya, Duke Ferg and others bowed their heads.
Therefore, a large number of the kingdom's outstanding spies are concentrated in the North and West. However, there are not many spies in Orange, and the intelligence is somewhat lacking.
The information collection time this time was only one and a half hours, which can be said to be very urgent.
But thanks to Luther, this boy was so capable. Not to mention that before the war, Luther Pompeii was already a big shot in Orange. During the war, Pompeii had become the only three people in Orange.
One of the great nobles.
Therefore, although the intelligence collection was hasty, we basically collected what happened on Luther's face.
Listening to the report from the Tower Spirit in the Royal Capital, even a scheming big shot like Grand Duke Buffett couldn't help but be surprised.
A few years ago, Pompeii was just a family of knight lords.
Now, the Pompeii family occupies six territories and has become a moderate separatist force.
From the information in the newspaper, it is not difficult to see that the rise of the Pompeii family is crucially related to one person. Before this, Archduke Buffett believed that the key figure in the rise of the Pompeii family was Saul Pompeii.
Unexpectedly, it was just the opposite. The reason why the Pompeii family rose was because of that little one.
"The development model of this family is not that the father creates the family business and leaves it to his son, but that the son creates the family business, and the father is responsible for the force. The father and son cooperate very well."
Duke Buffett was silent for a long time and said.
"A brat who knows how to do things. The Pompeii family's actions this time are full of meaning and purpose. I'm afraid they were also the work of this brat."
The king's voice was filled with emotion.
The saying of being transformed into China means that the next generation is to be feared.
A kid in his early twenties dared to take advantage of the situation, exploit every opportunity, and finally waited for the opportunity of the New Party to obtain a title for his family.
Not only is he courageous, but he is also very decisive and thoughtful.
The chess moves made step by step are very aggressive and very stable.
"What do you want to do?" Grand Duke Buffett leaned over and asked.
"This kid is really dangerous, and he calculated that I need his power. That's why he did what happened today, which made all the important officials in the royal capital come to watch his performance. I was a little angry, but I couldn't help it.
If you don’t admit it, his idea is right, the biggest problem in the kingdom is the new party.”
said the king.
"This brat is so capable, Mr. Archduke, do you think he can take down the Earl of Libya and the Duke of Ferg to dominate Orange and become a threat to the kingdom? Or can he keep his position under the watchful eye of the Earl of Libya and Duke Ferg?"
territory?"
asked the king.
"This kid is very powerful, ambitious and capable. But after all, the family's rise is too short-lived and lacks foundation. Unless he cooperates with the Pompeii Earl family of the Drake dynasty, it is absolutely impossible for him to take down the Libyan Earl.
Duke Ferg."
Grand Duke Buffett analyzed it calmly and then said.
"And judging from this kid's resume, he won't be easily dealt with by Libya and Felger."
"As Mr. Grand Duke said, if I canonize the Pompeii family as my vassal and become a real noble, then the situation in Orange will become a tripartite equilibrium. You also know that the triangle is the most balanced, who
It is the most difficult thing to decide who to eat. It is in the interest of the royal family that Orange maintains a balance among the three families and cannot unify them. As for Count Pompeii of Drake King Chao, this family will not easily interfere in the affairs of other countries.
What's more, the Drake family won't allow it."
said the king.
"I understand." Grand Duke Buffett nodded. The king's intention was very clear. To prevent Orange from being unified. Before that, he would use the power of the Pompeii family to eliminate the new party's rebels in Orange.
"I'm going to prepare the appointment documents and keep closing the entrance and exit gates of the royal capital to prevent the news from being transmitted. I urge the father and son to return to Orange and join forces with the Earl of Libya and Duke Felger to deal with the new party."
Not long ago, Buffett asked specifically whether the entrance to the royal capital was closed. Just for this reason.
Don't let the news get out.
"Wait a minute, Mr. Grand Duke." The king stopped Grand Duke Buffett.
"Your Majesty, do you think something is wrong?" Buffett was a little confused. He thought he had understood the king's intention.
"I do think it will be beneficial to the Wang family to use the power of Pompeii to eliminate the New Party's rebels in Orange, and then let Orange establish three forces that no one can do anything about. But I also think that if we can do the other
One thing will be more beneficial to the Wang family."
said the king.
"What's going on?" Grand Duke Buffett narrowed his eyes slightly, showing a thoughtful expression.
"I have a lovely great-granddaughter, Countess Lucy. Mr. Grand Duke, you give the father and son two choices. One is to appoint a document to appoint the Pompeii family as hereditary earls. The other is to recruit them and marry my great-granddaughter.
To Luther Pompey, and to appoint Saul Pompey as Court Margrave, and Luther Pompey as Court Count."
said the king.
"Both father and son will be awarded palace titles?" Grand Duke Buffett was a little surprised, because this has never happened before.
This shows that the king attaches great importance to Pompeii and his son.
"Saul Pompey is an earth knight who holds a bloodthirsty monster and is granted the title of Marquis of the Palace. This is normal. But I think his value is not as good as his son, Luther Pompey. If
To be able to recruit this father and son here, no matter how much the price is paid, it is still worth it. Not to mention it is just an empty palace title."
The king acknowledged the importance attached to Pompeii and his son.
"I understand, I'm going to summon the two Mr. Pompeii." Archduke Buffett bowed.
"Please, Mr. Grand Duke." The king's voice revealed a little fatigue, which proved that it was not easy for the king to be active in the wizarding country.
In fact, it is really not easy for King Odin III to sit on the throne of the king.
The three major human kingdoms have diplomatic issues.
The new party rebelled and was the enemy of the nobles.
The Grand Duke of the North, the Marquess of Cambridge, the Earl of Libya and the Wang family appear to be in harmony but have internal problems.
If there were not three pillars in the kingdom now, the Wang family might have been defeated long ago.
"You are serious, it is my responsibility to serve you." Grand Duke Buffett shook his head and said.
