Chapter 0569 - International Situation
Just when Miao Xu accompanied Shui'er to recuperate in Peach Blossom Valley (that place has no name, let's call it Peach Blossom Valley for the time being), and by the way, when he recovered his strength, the international shape shì was also undergoing great changes, with the death of His Majesty the Emperor of the British Empire, great turmoil occurred within the British Empire, Lantis, Milan, and William did not know what agreement was reached, and they unanimously pointed the finger at the prince, and even found some clues, Pointing out that the eldest prince has a relationship with the death of His Majesty Bi Jiasi, in such a situation, His Royal Highness the eldest prince, who was originally dominant, directly fell into passivity.
Although these news came from the mouths of the three Grand Dukes, no one had personally heard the three Grand Dukes say this, and every time in public, their views were surprisingly unanimous, and the prince could not ascend the throne until the cause of His Majesty Bi Jia's death was discovered.
Such a view has naturally been opposed by some people, after all, the country cannot be without a monarch for a day, whether it is the prince faction, or some neutral nobles, they all hope to be able to determine the monarch as soon as possible, but the Landis family is the oldest family in the British Empire, the history of this family is even longer than the royal family, it is said that in that turbulent era, it was the head of the Lantis family who fully supported Arthur Charlie, which laid down a large territory of the British Empire, and the first emperor of the British Empire Arthur* In order to thank the Lord of the Landis family for his help, His Majesty Charles planned to directly crown Landis as a prince with a different surname, but was rejected by Landis, and just accepted the title of Duke, Arthur's Majesty had no choice but to marry his favorite granddaughter to the eldest grandson of the Duke of Landis, since that time, the Landis family and the royal family have been married, it is no exaggeration to say that at least a quarter of today's royal blood flows with the blood of the Landis family, in this case, Who can ignore the opinion of Duke Lantis? Don't forget, he also has a daughter of the third imperial concubine who is favored by Bijias.
As for the Milan family, although it does not have the long history of the Landis family, but it is the most powerful family in the entire British Empire in the past few hundred years, for no other reason, in just five hundred years, the Milan family has produced five marshals, twelve generals, twenty-nine generals, as for the lieutenant generals, there are countless major generals, they are also the most powerful military family in the British Empire, it is no exaggeration to say that the British Empire has at least 30% of the military power, directly in the hands of their people!
Who can ignore the words of such a powerful family patriarch?
As for the William family, they are much more low-key than the other two families, they don't have so many generals and marshals, and they don't have the long history of Landis that can coexist with the royal family, they are just three prime ministers in this hundred years of history!
Yes, a hundred years, three prime ministers, that's all!
Prime Minister, that is one person under ten thousand people above the existence zài, in addition to the emperor, even if it is the marshal of the empire, if it is about status, it is a little bit worse than the prime minister, this is a person who directly controls the political economy of the British Empire, if he meets an emperor who is lazy and does not ask about political affairs, then the prime minister is almost equivalent to the first person in the empire.
There are even private rumors that the William family is the second royal family of the British Empire, but in the face of such rumors, no matter which emperor it is, they laughed it off, and from beginning to end, the trust in the William family has not been reduced in the slightest.
These three families, any family is a stomp of the foot, can make the British Empire tremble, when the three of them stand on the same line, when the same decision, who dares to refute?
Therefore, under the acquiescence of the three archdukes, the emperor's throne of the British Empire has been vacant, and the Royal Security Service of the British Empire has been following the orders of the three archdukes to complete an impossible task to find the murderer who killed His Majesty.
Everyone understands that this is just the three dukes delaying time, they are preparing, preparing how to disintegrate the power in the hands of the eldest prince, once they are fully prepared, they will launch the fiercest attack on the eldest prince, and when the time comes, just find a few dead soldiers, and then forge some evidence, regardless of whether the eldest prince has anything to do with the death of His Majesty, such charges will be detained on the head of the eldest prince.
Of course, the eldest prince is not a fool, let alone sit still, he deeply understands that this is not only related to his throne, but also related to himself, including his mother's life, so these days, he is also running around to tell each other, to win over a force that can be co-opted, the two forces, the reason why they did not immediately go to war, is still to worry about the surrounding imperial allies.
None of them wanted to settle the succession to the throne in this most extreme way until they were forced to do so, because at that time, no matter who won or lost, it was the surrounding imperial allies who were cheaper.
And the French Empire, the Roman Empire, including the Germanic Empire, which had a very small population but a very strong army, were waiting, waiting for the two powers of the British Empire to go to war.
As long as the British Empire falls into a civil war, then whether it is military support for a certain party, or directly sending troops to invade, you can get huge profits, the British Empire is too fat, their wealth of a little baron or little viscount is often comparable to the wealth of other imperial earls, and even marquis dukes, such a big lion with meat all over his body, if he doesn't take advantage of his weakness to bite a few bites on his body, how can he be worthy of himself?
In the face of the powerful attack of the Dragon Court Republic, the Su Tan Empire has lost nearly a third of its land, just when the Su Tan Empire could not help but publicly apologize to the Dragon Court Republic, the US Federation, which had always been silent in this battle, suddenly stood up and publicly accused the Dragon Court Republic of barbarism, demanding that the Dragon Court Republic must immediately stop its military operations against the Sutan Empire. If it does not stop, then the US Federation will provide military assistance to the Sutan Empire.
Naturally, it is impossible for the Longting Republic to stop military operations because of a public declaration by the US Federation, first publicly announcing the reason for its war with the Sutan Empire, in short, it is also as aggrieved as it says it is, and this behavior of the US Federation is an act of disregard for the overall situation, and an act of deliberately interfering in the administration of other countries.
The military operation did not stop, what everyone did not expect was that the US Federation actually mobilized a large number of troops to the Sutan Empire to assist the Sutan Empire, and even in order to reduce the land pressure of the Sutan Empire, it directly sent seven aircraft carriers to set sail from the Pacific Ocean and go straight to the East China Sea of the Longting Republic.
Looking at this posture, there is a tendency to start the East China Sea campaign at any time.
Such a scene made many people fall through their glasses, and no one understood what was crazy about the US Federation?
As a federal country, their purpose is freedom, is a country that claims to be more free and equal than the republic, but everyone understands that the so-called equality here is based on money, as long as you have money, you are the uncle, even if you kill a few people, slaughter a few villages, then as long as you have enough money, the government can also find a way to settle for you, it is under this purpose, the United States has absorbed a large number of rich people, everyone wants to be God, everyone wants to dominate the death of others, The economy of the U.S. Commonwealth is also developing rapidly, it has only been established for more than 600 years, and its national strength is almost the same as that of the British Empire, and although the U.S. Commonwealth is located in the West, it is separated from the entire Western Imperial Alliance in the Western Pacific, and it is difficult for any empire to transport troops to the land of the U.S. Commonwealth.
Occupying a piece of land alone, the U.S. federal government has taken advantage of the war, and the U.S. federal government, which has no worries, has been crazy about launching the economy, and over the years, their national strength has been thriving!
There is even a tendency to surpass the British Empire and catch up with the Dragon Court Republic.
Over the years, I don't know what the reason is, the U.S. Federation has always been a little wrong with the Dragon Court Republic, but at most it is a bit of a verbal war, no one thought that at this time, they would choose to directly participate in the war?
Why, exactly?
Except for a very small number of people, no one will ever wonder why? However, the high-level of the republic knew that behind the American Federation, there was the shadow of the Holy Alliance, and what kind of organization the Holy Alliance was was only understood by the Long Ting.
However, the reason why they are so impatient to start a war is that the energy of the US Federation is insufficient, although they occupy a piece of land alone, but that land is not large, not even as large as the land area of the Dragon Court Republic, and over the years, in order to develop the economy, the US Federation has been frantically squandering all kinds of domestic energy, and it has been squandered for hundreds of years, and it is unrestrained squandering, even if it is not enough to give them twice the size of the place? If we do not find a way out in time, maybe a hundred years, maybe a few hundred years, or only a few decades, or even a few years, the entire political system of the US federal government will fall into a state of collapse.
How to find a way out? The best way to do this is war......
It's also the fastest, most straightforward, and easiest way......
In the face of the strategic intentions of the US Federation, the Republic of Longting also responded, in addition to placing countless intercontinental missiles in Longgang Shandong's Haikou, it also sent nine aircraft carriers to set sail from Tianjin Port and go straight to the eastern Pacific......
If you have seven, then I will have nine, and I will still be nine supercarriers with the highest configuration, the Dragon Court Republic, domineering and unparalleled......
