When Marin's army confronted the combined forces of Bossa, George, Duke of Saxony, was not idle. George realized that it was impossible to defeat the Duchy of Guedes militarily. So, he decided to go the political course.

For example, to appeal to the Imperial Diet and exert political pressure on the Duchy of Godes. After all, the occupation of West Friesland by the Duchy of Godes was illegal and unsightly.

Earlier, when the Governor of Fyskefrijheid and the Baron of Leeuwarden, Zitle, had been assassinated, George was furious. Fortunately, he was lucky, and Baron Leeuwarden's Ztel suffered a heart break and survived. Moreover, his subordinates were also clever, and in order to avoid a second assassination, they concealed the news that Baron Leeuwarden Ztel had survived. Even the local emperor Marin did not know about the survival of Baron Ztel of Leeuwarden.

George was now very depressed and angry. He was angry now, not because of the death of Governor Fyskefrijheid. After all, the presence of Baron Ztel of Leeuwarden was enough to accuse Charles II, Duke of Guedes.

The main reason for his anger was that his cousin, Frederick III, Elector of Saxony, did not support him enough. Before, Frederick III made a bunch of excuses, talked about a lot of difficulties, and lent him only five thousand soldiers and horses. At the time, George also believed.

However, in the blink of an eye, in order to avenge Denmark, the Duchy of Saxony actually sent 15,000 troops to help Denmark attack Lübeck......

George was immediately upset, you know, he and Frederick III were family. For a relative, the elite of the whole country was dispatched. It is said that the 20,000 Swiss mercenaries were hired as money as paid in advance by the Electors of Saxony and Brandenburg......

Without contrast, there is no harm. Before, George thought that his cousin had lent him 5,000 soldiers and horses, which was indeed very righteous. But in a blink of an eye, Frederick III, Elector of Saxony, sent 15,000 main troops to help Denmark, and also helped pay half of the salary of 20,000 Swiss mercenaries, which deeply hurt George's heart......

You know, if Frederick III supported himself as much as Denmark, what was the Duchy of Godes? It is possible that the Duchy of Guedes did have a few thousand Swiss mercenaries to help in the war. However, the Elector of Saxony helped Denmark this time and paid half of the salary of 20,000 Swiss mercenaries. That's the equivalent of hiring 10,000 Swiss mercenaries for Denmark!

If Frederick III was willing to help him hire 10,000 Swiss mercenaries, why couldn't he defeat the Duchy of Godes? What's more, the Elector of Saxony still has an army of 15,000 men......

George's heart really hurts, and he doesn't trust his cousin anymore...... There is a rift between the two branches of the Wettin family......

However, Frederick III refused to help him, and he could not help it. Therefore, George had to run around on his own, and persuaded the nobles to support him. Especially at the site of the Worms Imperial Conference, George had already made several trips. George hoped to convene an Imperial Council as soon as possible, so that he could publicly denounce the Duchy of God's "rule-breaking" behavior in front of many princes, and hoped that through this meeting, he would try to avoid paying the huge ransom of more than one million gold coins. Anyway, he couldn't afford to pay that much ransom.

After returning from this defeat, Georg also tried to turn to the Hanseatic merchants in Saxony for help, hoping that they would lend him money.

However, the Hanseatic merchants of Saxony felt that the amount of more than a million gold coins was too large. Moreover, George's finances are so bad now that they don't believe that George can afford to repay the loan. Therefore, during this time, George was frequently given a cold shoulder.

As a result, George could only pin his hopes on the appeal of the Imperial Council. To this end, he made several trips to Worms and communicated several times with Jacob, Archbishop of Mainz.

……

The Duchy of Gedes, as a large vassal state, also had a permanent representative in Worms, who was called Vousina. Vosina was curious, because, as far as he knew, Governor Fyskefrijheid and Baron Leeuwarden Ztel had been killed by the Gold Medal Killer sent by the Duchy of Godes. Why, then, is George, Duke of Saxony, still enthusiastic about convening the Imperial Council?

So Vosina spent a lot of money, through an intermediary, to invite George's retinue to drink in the tavern of Worms. Wait until these people are drunk, and then talk about them......

As a result, Vosina really got a very important message - the assassination of Baron Leeuwarden Ztel had no appetite. Because this person's heart was wrong, he escaped......

Thus, George is now a witness to the accusation of Charles II, Duke of Guedes, at the Imperial Council......

Vosina panicked, this was not good news for the Duchy of Godes. After all, the Saxon aristocracy has much more say in the Imperial Council than the Duchy of Geddes. Although the Duchy of Guedes hooked up with the French, the French had no say in the German Imperial Conference, so it was of little help to them.

Vosina hurriedly wrote an urgent letter and sent someone back to the country to inform Charles II of this momentous change.

Charles II, Duke of Guedes, was also taken aback when he received an urgent letter from Vousina. Originally, he thought that the assassination was stable. Unexpectedly, Baron Leeuwarden Ztel was so strange that he grew his heart to the right......

Now it would be troublesome, if George brought Baron Leeuwarden Ztel to the Imperial Council, he might really lose the case. When the time comes, the Reichstag may decide to abandon West Frisland itself. Even, the ransom of more than one million gold coins had to be wasted......

Although you can ignore the verdict of the Reichstag, if you can, you don't want to mix in the German aristocracy. A person who ignores the decisions of the nobles in the circle is to be ostracized. In the future, if your descendants want to marry someone, they may not be able to find a partner......

Moreover, the most important thing is that if you lose the lawsuit and lose the moral high ground, it is easy to be beaten by the crowd......

Therefore, killing Baron Ztel of Leeuwarden was his only option.

However, after the last assassination, the army of the Duchy of Saxony now took the safety of Baron Ztel of Leeuwarden very seriously.

Charles II sent people to the garrison of the Saxon army in East Friesian land, and found that the Saxon military camp was now extremely well defended. Moreover, he specially borrowed Alsatian wolfdogs from Marin to be on duty and patrolling. If the killer wants to infiltrate again, it will be difficult to reach the sky......

However, when Charles II's subordinates went to East Friesland to reconnoitre, they also found that after the main force of the East Friesian army went out to fight, the remaining troops retreated to important towns such as Aurich, Emden and Lyle.

The defenders of several forts that had been on the west side of the Ames were all withdrawn......

Thus, this wine gave Charles II a chance - a chance to raid the Saxon military camp......

At this time, because all the defenders on the west bank of the Ems River had withdrawn, it was still easy for the troops of the Duchy of Gedes to enter East Friesland, and then quietly cross the river to attack the Saxon military camp on the east bank of the Ames River.

After all, the defenders of Saxony in the barracks on the east bank of the Ames River were only more than 2,000 men. As long as you send three or four thousand Swiss mercenaries, you can safely defeat the Saxons who remain behind. As long as you enter the Saxon barracks, then it will be easy to kill Baron Leeuwarden Ztel......

After a fierce ideological struggle, Charles II, Duke of Guedes, finally made a decision - to send 4,000 elite troops, cross the river at night, and then storm the Saxon barracks and kill the Baron de Leeuwarden Ztel......
