Chapter nine hundred and eighty third hope is shattered
"We want to give His Majesty time, but the problem is that the enemy will not give us time. Those mobs are holding high the banner of the Revolutionary Party and not only want to destroy our property, but also our lives. If they are allowed to continue to mess around,
Even if stability is restored, it will take at least ten years, or even decades, to recover."
"Hey... I have to say that His Excellency the Viscount's ideas are too optimistic. Do you think we still have a chance to go back to the past? Even if we solve the Revolutionary Party thugs, the problem will be solved? Ten soldiers led by Yongye Army
Ten thousand troops are still there watching with eagerness!
Haven't you figured it out yet?
They are the main culprits that have plunged our territory into turmoil.
Haven't you seen clearly their sinister intentions?
Why didn't they continue to advance quickly after severely damaging our main force? Instead, they stood still?
The purpose is to give those Revolutionary Party mobs an opportunity to take advantage of the chaos and completely destroy our rule and our territory. It would be even more perfect if they could kill you and me all.
It will be much easier for them to take over and govern."
"His Excellency the Baron's argument is too alarmist. The reason why the Yongye Army is holding back now is that I think they are advancing too fast and the logistics department cannot keep up. They have to do this because of the riots of the Revolutionary Party thugs.
, purely a coincidence.”
"Before making such remarks, you'd better ask yourself repeatedly in your mind, do you believe what you say?"
"Your Majesty the Viscount's own analysis contains huge contradictions. If there are really problems with the logistics department of the Yong Ye Army, then it should adopt the tactics of attacking quickly and occupying the most land as quickly as possible.
and the city, to support themselves, instead of stopping to wait for the food behind them. Their current posture is more like being confident and looking like they will eat us to death. Therefore, I believe more in the Baron's speculation that everything is intentional on their part.
For that.”
"You really overestimate the strength of the Yongye Army Leader."
"It's not that we overestimated, but that you underestimated the enemy's strength. Until now, we still haven't fully understood how the army led by the Yongye Army crossed the fault mountain range and jumped directly behind Count Nickles. It's really like
According to the rumors, they dug tunnels all the way to the plateau?"
"Count Niklos has sacrificed his life for the leader, our army has been folded at the Helian Mountain Pass, and all the passages have fallen into the hands of the other party. Let's discuss how their army passed through the fault mountain range.
What’s the point?”
"Why is it meaningless? Only by knowing what methods the other party uses can we know whether there is any problem with their logistics to prevent the same thing from happening. You don't want them to sneak directly into Huayu City without anyone noticing.
Come, chop off your and my heads directly."
"What you said is still a bit exaggerated. If they could do this casually, there would be no need to wait until now. Regardless of the methods they used before, I believe they must have spent a lot of time preparing.
, it is impossible to use it repeatedly easily.”
These nobles of the Huayu Plateau were talking about how the Yongye army leader crossed the Helian Mountain Pass and launched that fatal backstab against Count Nickles.
There is still no accurate conclusion on this matter, and various rumors and speculations are flying everywhere.
There are many sayings that are so miraculous that they will elevate the leader of the Eternal Night Army to a high altar.
This is definitely not a good thing for the lords and nobles of Huayu Plateau, because it will make the soldiers and civilians of Huayu Plateau completely lose the courage to fight against them.
"Your Majesty is here, your Majesty is here."
"His Majesty is finally willing to see us."
"When we meet His Majesty later, please be careful with your words and don't provoke him with too exciting topics. Now more than ever, we need His Majesty to step in and take charge of the overall situation."
"Don't worry, Lord Count, we know what's appropriate."
The appearance of Archduke Christian made the noble lords involuntarily stop their arguments and gathered around each other, looking at each other with expectant expressions.
Although there were no wrinkles on Archduke Christian's clothes, there was no smell of alcohol on his body, and his face and hair were carefully modified, he still could not hide his decadent aura, and his whole spirit seemed to have been sucked away all at once.
More than half of it gives people the feeling of being ten years older.
In this way, the frivolous aura about him became much lighter, giving people a sense of stability.
Perhaps difficulties make people grow, and the existential crisis that the Brian family is now facing may allow Archduke Christian to completely transform and become a qualified leader.
Those noble lords have such good wishes in their hearts.
"I know the purpose of your visit." Archduke Christian glanced at everyone's faces and said in a deep voice, "In the past week, I was not only guarding the grave of my teacher, but also thinking about the Bryan family.
The future, this future, is in my hands, and it is also in your hands.
Flower Language Plateau is our territory, our homeland, it was in the past, it is now, and it will be in the future.
We will never give up our territory, our home.
Neither the Revolutionary Party thugs nor the group of invaders led by the Evernight Army can take it away from us.
We will fight to the last soldier to protect our homeland."
"We swear to follow His Majesty to the death, fight to the last soldier, and never give up."
"We will protect our territory and home with our lives."
"We are willing to follow His Majesty until the last drop of blood is shed."
The noble lords responded enthusiastically.
They hadn't heard such an encouraging declaration for a long time, and this was exactly what they needed most.
"I wonder how your Majesty is going to deal with the situation at hand? What do you need us to do?" A weak voice came from the crowd.
The noble lords glared at the noble who made the noise with some dissatisfaction, as if they were dissatisfied with the other party's lack of understanding, but they couldn't help but look at Archduke Christian with expectant eyes.
The brief speech that Archduke Christine just gave was encouraging, but it was all high-sounding stuff and was not helpful at all to the actual issues.
They spoke eloquently here and said that they would shed the last drop of blood for their territory.
When things come to a head, they may not even know whether they are still so stubborn.
"The attitude of the Yong Ye Army Leader has become very obvious. Not only do they plot our territory, but they also want to uproot us to facilitate their future governance here. However, they themselves do not want to get too much blood, so they use those
The hands of stupid people and thugs will clean us up."
Archduke Christian said clearly, "This is our glimmer of hope. We must concentrate all our forces to suppress all those thugs. Only by doing this can we be qualified to carry out the next step of mediation with the leader of the Yongye Army."
.”
"Your Majesty's analysis is very reasonable. The leader of the Yongye Army wants to use those Revolutionary Party thugs to eradicate us. The premise is that they have such strength. If we kill all those thugs first, I would like to see if they can still
Is there any way?"
"Doing this may not be a bad idea, but it is also likely to completely anger the Yongye Army leaders, causing them to send troops desperately and causing our disaster to come early."
"We are afraid of wolves in front and tigers in the back. Is it possible that we can't accomplish anything? What do we think about in the long run? Let's do it first."
"I'm not saying not to do it, but to do it in a more planned way. Eliminating the revolutionary thugs is not the ultimate goal, but a process. We must make full use of this process to reorganize the army. Only a strong army will wait until we face the final enemy.
When it comes to fighting, whether it’s a fight or a draw, we have enough confidence.”
"This is indeed the truth. Our military strength is the foundation of everything. I didn't see that when the leader of the Yongye Army took action, he targeted our most elite military forces. It was precisely because of the trap and killing of those elites that we
All parties have become very passive. If we want to reverse this situation, we must do our best to restore our military strength."
"The idea is indeed good, but you and I understand that the Yongye Army leaders know better. Do you think they will watch us do this?"
"What do you mean?"
"The tactics we just discussed are too idealistic. They are all based on the premise that the revolutionary thugs have not made any progress. However, throughout their development, they have been learning and making progress. Some of the towns they captured have even
Trying to implement the tactics learned from the Yongye Army, allocating land to those citizens and gaining their sympathy and support. This is far from a predatory banditry. This is a seizure of power in the true sense.
It’s about taking root in this land!”
"The most important thing is that the Yongye military leaders will not just watch us grow and develop. It won't be long before they are likely to secretly support these revolutionary thugs. If necessary, they will even create a second Helian
The tragic battle at Yamaguchi uprooted our reunited military strength."
Several basins of cold water were poured down in succession, and the atmosphere that had just been heated up by Archduke Christine's inspiring speech soon fell to freezing point again.
The noble lords looked at each other, and they could all see the despair in each other's eyes.
Because this is the cruel reality before them.
When their main elite troops were folded at the Helian Mountain Pass, their next actions were all passive.
"Where's the Royal Court? Where's the Holy See? They didn't react at all? Just watching the plateau being annexed by the Yongye Army Leader? This is not good for them at all! As long as they are willing to make some moves on the other side, the Yongye Army Leader
You absolutely cannot be so unscrupulous!”
"Don't place your hopes on them. His Majesty had already contacted Queen Enid and sent an envoy when he noticed the abnormality of the Yongye Army leader. Queen Enid has also been actively running for our affairs, but the king
The current situation in Valesta is too complicated. Not only has power fallen into the hands of the Holy See, but many people are questioning Queen Enid.
Queen Enid's attitude was a little tougher, and she was under pressure from all sides.
What is even more incredible is that the sudden death of King Lowry has been brought up again. It is said that they are planning to restart the investigation. This time, the target of the attack is directly on Queen Enid. The reason is that she is the biggest risk in this matter.
Beneficiaries.
Hell, the biggest beneficiary of this matter is obviously the Holy See, Pope St. George. In terms of the level of suspicion, the Holy See is far above Queen Enid.
But those idiots have been controlled by the Holy See from top to bottom with their beliefs and have lost their ability to think freely.
Now Queen Enid is too busy taking care of herself that she doesn’t have much left to help us!”
"This time the Holy See is determined to sacrifice us in exchange for the opportunity for them to completely seize the royal power. If nothing happens, in a few days, we will receive the news that the Holy See will establish a country and replace the Lancelot royal family..."
"You don't have to wait a few days. I can give you an accurate answer now." Calvin, the intelligence minister of the Bryan family, who had just gone out to listen to the spy report, strode in again.
"Your Majesty..." As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Calvin immediately realized that his behavior was somewhat inappropriate, and hurriedly bowed to Archduke Christian for instructions, asking whether the information he had just received should be disclosed in public.
"The matter has reached this point. There is nothing to hide. No matter what information you get, just say it. They all have the right to know." Archduke Christian waved his hands openly, but the gloom on his face was about to gather.
flowed out in a flood.
"I have just received accurate news. Three days ago, Queen Enid read out the abdication announcement on behalf of the royal family in public, announcing to the world that due to the poor governance of the Lancelot royal family, the Theodine Empire broke through the broken line of defense, giving the whole Byron
The alliance has caused irreparable losses. In order to better benefit the people, the royal family is willing to hand over all military power and political power to the Holy See and let them preside over it. The royal family only retains the ownership of the wealth and industry of its own territory."
Calvin paused slightly and said, "On the afternoon when Queen Enid issued the proclamation, Pope St. George issued the proclamation of the founding of the country. They will form an empire with unified divine power, royal power, military power, and political power, and seek benefits for all believers.
Better well-being.
The next day, Grand Duke Buck and Grand Duke Patram issued announcements one after another, swearing to lead their territories to join the Holy See Empire and accept their comprehensive adaptation."
The whole castle fell into a deathly silence.
Speculating is one thing, actually happening is another.
At least before that, they had a sense of luck, thinking that the situation would not be that bad.
This luck was now completely shattered.
The internal integration of the newly established Holy See Empire will involve most of their energy. Now they want the Eternal Night Army to pretend that they do not exist, so how can they take the initiative to provoke this foreign enemy and create obstacles for themselves?
They never cared about the life and death of Huayu Plateau from the beginning.
A strong enemy is pressing down on the territory, there are worries inside, and there is no external help.
