In the wide hall, dozens of people with "status" in the empire exchanged glances, and they decided to attack the prime minister together.

Even at the most critical moment, there are always some stupid people who don't want to die.

It is indeed very likely that the ship will capsize, but in order to keep the ship, let them contribute all the private goods they carry, but they are also unwilling.

Why do they still rely on this thing as a stepping stone to the next boat, but they are not willing to smash it on a broken boat.

Thinking of this, they couldn't help but show a fierce look on their faces, and several young nobles even stood up directly, wanting to loudly reprimand Tian Sen's transgression.

Before they could stand up, several soldiers with sharp blades had already rushed into the council chamber.

The nobles turned their heads to the door, where more samurai were still on their way to gather.

At present, the standing forces of the empire have long since gone north with the emperor, and the soldiers who remained in Abbasquia are known to be nothing more than a group of military police, and they are a little weak to deal with the citizens who riot, let alone use the knife against a group of real nobles?

But there was an air of elite in the soldiers, who wore half-covered iron helmets with high bulges on top. And on the body is a standard half-body chain mail, in these counts' estates, even the cavalry is not so well armed.

What made them even more chilled was the long-handled weapon they were holding. The entire blade was made of fine iron, and the long iron rod was directly poured with small axe blades and short long tips.

The cost of this blade alone is prohibitive.

And, most shockingly, the soldiers' clothing was so similar that a quick glance at them showed that their equipment must have been made by the same family, and it was likely that it was made at the same time.

In the entire empire, the only one who can have this kind of financial and material resources and spare no effort to arm the army is the royal family.

They looked at the old man with amazement, who had been semi-retired since the new monarch ascended the throne, and in the past year, Tamori had barely commented on any of the decrees they had issued, even the reduction of the pension in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

For a long time in the past, Tamori became a person who was considered to be a previous era.

But he eventually stood up at the moment of the empire's survival and succeeded in becoming the spokesman of the royal family, which is why this army is present in the halls of parliament at this moment.

After being sure that those nobles had nothing to say, Tian Sen slowly picked up the teacup in his hand, it was a handicraft from the East, the value was expensive, the Oriental people had two styles of cyan and white, but the nobles of the Great Purus loved the white teacup even more, once a complete set appeared on the market, it must be from the hands of an unknown aristocratic family.

In short, this kind of expensive treasure must have been booked on the ship.

But Tian Sen drank the tea in the cup in one gulp after picking it up, and then slammed it on the ground.

Several nobles exclaimed in surprise at his actions, but before they could scream, they were already stunned by the old man's ensuing momentum.

Tian Sen stood up with his hands propped up on the table.

Although he was old, his eyes were still bright, and his narrowed pupils seemed to hide a knife.

"Prussia, I advise you to get this idea as soon as possible! If he really had the appearance of an emperor, he would not have waited until now to get mixed up like this. A person who competes with Felipe the Great, and now he still has the ability to do so!"

Tian Sen continued to sneer: "Since the first year of the empire, he has been obsessed with the throne, but I didn't expect that after all these years, he will still be like this, which is really disappointing. ”

"Do you really think that the Rhine kingdom of Pruss will bring you a new order? I tell you, even if the Emperor of Abbasquia is ten times more incompetent than the present Majesty Peris, he is far superior to that bastard of Prus. ”

"I've been dealing with him since I was in the kingdom, and he was a spoiled child, and now he's even more ignorant of what to do or what he is doing. ”

As he said this, a messenger-like figure squeezed in from the middle of several soldiers.

And he had several thick sheets of parchment in his hands.

He quickly handed the envelope to Tian Sen's hand, and Tian Sen opened it without hesitation, and then took out one or two pieces from it at random, and immediately read it aloud.

"In June of the sixteenth year of the new calendar, the king of the Rhine and the messenger Edward of the Weegand people proposed to help the secret Weegand people resist the Northern Expedition of the Empire, and were willing to provide them with a thousand iron tools and a number of armor ......."

"In September of the sixteenth year of the new calendar, it was entrusted to the hands of the merchants of the empire, and more than 1,000 fake axes were secretly imported into the north. ”

"In October of the sixteenth year of the new calendar, it was a gathering of troops and a plan for misdeeds. In the same month, an envoy claimed that the Weegand were at war with the Empire and that the empire had defeated the Weegand people...... The king of the Rhine began to send troops, and agreed to cede 300 miles of fertile land in the north to Edward, the chief of Wywegan, in exchange for his support for the throne. ”

Listening to Tian Sen's sonorous voice, the nobles finally became silent.

Even if the interests of the North were irrelevant to them, no one would like a traitorous king.

Listening to the land that was ceded out, they could not help but feel a little sad about the death of rabbits and foxes, and according to the style of this Rhine king, he did not regard his own interests at all.

And the Great Prussian Empire, which was essentially built on the basis of a nation-state. His cession of the land of the natives is particularly despicable.

Tian Sen continued: "Three hundred miles of fertile soil...... Tsk, what a generous hand, maybe he will be so generous when he gives away your heads, you know, these lands are what I have spent more than ten years of hard work, and it was after the unification of the empire, under the general trend, I barely grabbed it, and he just ceded it with such a big stroke, and there was a lot of interest, it is really generous!"

A nobleman slowly raised his head, it was a middle-aged man with a little frost on his face, in this meeting, no old man participated in this meeting, except for Tian Sen, he could be called a slightly older existence.

"Prime Minister, we, who are substitutes, are still willing to serve the Empire. ”

The middle-aged nobleman said in a hoarse voice.

"I haven't lived long enough to forget the history of our Great Prus being invaded by foreigners. All those who collude with foreigners must be severely punished. ”

"Yes, even the serfs in my manor know that they must not collude with outsiders. ”

"His (Prus's) actions are an utter insult to his ancestors! we cannot bear to be given a position second only to His Majesty the Emperor by such a man!"

After one person started, some of the rest of the nobles also hurriedly joined in, but their voices were not as resolute and deep as the middle-aged nobles, and some were just a group of pretending to shout high-profile postures.

Tian Sen sighed silently in his heart, but he didn't make any dissatisfied expression on his face, he just made further strategic overall planning, so as to be on the more active side in the next battle.

And in the north, the most remote and panicked corner of the empire, at this time, it has suffered a great military disaster that has not been encountered in a century.

After the main force of the empire was attacked by Prus, although the three generals focused on sorting out some of the soldiers, after all, most of the soldiers were demoralized, and the emperor was nowhere to be seen at that time.

Thus, Pruss simply led the army straight in, crushed the camp left behind by the army, and harvested almost ninety percent of Valicia's supplies in the North.

In addition to the necessary food, iron and cloth, there are also some animal skins, precious stones, gold and silver utensils, and it is not difficult to believe what a remarkable job these soldiers did in the north.

However, it is said that after Pruth took the army, he intended to take over the whole of the Northland, gain the support of the local villages, cities, and the allegiance of the nobles, and if possible, he would have liked to block Edward's troops back into the swamp.

It's just that after the war, although the infantry legions of the empire were defeated, they more often returned to their hometowns with their blades, or took refuge in some villages and towns.

When the soldiers found out again that the cavalry of Prussia had come to them, the feeling of anger was enough to give Prus a great problem to the guest living here.

In particular, the resentment in the hearts of the farmers was even greater when they discovered that Prussia's army had had made some improper contact with the Wiegands.

Therefore, after hastily discarding the corpses of two or three hundred cavalry, Prus was forced to withdraw from the north.

Of course, before leaving, he hadn't forgotten to sign a rather frustrating treaty with Edward.

"As long as the army is under the city of Abbasquia, all of them belong to the homeland of the North Sea Kingdom, and the chief of the Northlands, Edward, is allowed to lead the troops to take them for himself. Take a city, then give a city, take a land, then send a land, allow the south to be settled, discuss the major affairs of the North Sea. ”

In addition, Pruce promised some "rewards" and "submissions" and other nonsense bits and pieces, which, at a glance, made Edward himself not interested in reading them, except for one thing that particularly aroused Edward's interest.

That is why Prus used a very strong tone, demanding that Edward must execute all the captured Great Pruss warriors as soon as possible, especially referring to the more than 100 knights among them.

I have to say, it's a bit of a hassle to kill these tin cans at a glance.

Until the army of the Great Prussians was completely withdrawn, there were still a few knights who were still trying to resist. Of course, their struggle was destined to be futile, and Edward sent his elite troops, and in a short time recovered all the knights who were above the top.

To his great refreshment, the knights were reluctant to surrender to the soldiers of his chieftains, and were not stingy in surrendering to himself and his own soldiers.

And the reason of the knights was: "It is a great shame for them to surrender to a group of barbarians, and it is all the more glorious to admit their defeat to the commander of a mighty army for the time being, because it is at least a sign of the spirit in which they can afford to lose." ”

Therefore, he really locked up the knights in the camp with dignity, and if the knights who were willing to surrender their weapons and armor were even allowed to move freely, if they were unwilling, then he had to surrender his weapons, but he could keep the armor, and they would have to be kept in prisons under the supervision of soldiers.

As for food, water, and the like, Edward waved his hand and allowed these knights to enjoy the same treatment as his elite warriors, and also gave them the right to participate in the banquet, that is, they were rewarded with wine, food, and meat, although they could only sit at the end of the camp, but that was also the treatment of a general.

Although this kind of preferential treatment was appreciated by the knights, it naturally endangered the interests of many generals.

The most radical of them even demanded that Edward immediately put to death the "rice worms" who could only eat and drink, they could not contribute to the war at the moment, and they themselves could not produce enough food to feed themselves, let alone be knowledgeable scholars or sacrifices. According to ancient traditions, such people do not deserve to live.

Regardless, Edward withstood the pressure of these oppositionists.

In full view, he explained that the knights were willing to pay a ransom worth a lot for their lives, which could be used to reward the bravest warriors among them.

Still, Edward remembered the faces of the opposition and assigned them the most difficult siege missions.

If nothing else, they would soon die on the way of the Wiegand southward expansion.

Among them, those who could pose a threat to his position, and those who were not loyal enough, had already been cleverly arranged by Edward in the position of death in the previous war, and the soldiers and commanders left behind were not a threat to him as king.

But he still sent these people to a dead end without mercy.

In fact, not only them, but more conservatives have not been able to dodge Edward's butcher's knife, and even some of the tribe's sacrifices, they have obviously served on the battlefield once, but Edward still did not hesitate, and handed them to the front line in the next blood station.

Almost all the old people of the Campbell tribe who used to see Edward said that Edward had changed.

Became no longer gentle and good, became bloody, from a good person, to a damn butcher, an executioner.

Even the tribal generals who supported him the most as king had to comment on some private occasions

"King Edward, he is my king, and there is only so much I can say on this subject. ”

Everyone
