As for how to make people believe that James IV will pass on to Edward? This is easy to do, just learn from what Maximilian I did when King Vladislas II of Bohemia competed for the Hungarian throne.

Originally, after the death of King Matthias I of Hungary, Maximilian I and King Vladislas II of Bohemia competed for the Hungarian throne. But in the end, Maximilian I made concessions. However, in making concessions, he demanded that if Vladislas II had no heirs, then the throne of the Kingdom of Hungary, including the Kingdom of Bohemia, would go to the Habsburgs...... And Vladislas II agreed, and signed the agreement......

Originally, this agreement was seen as a fig leaf for Maximilian I to regain face after losing the competition. But unexpectedly, later Lajos II, the son of Vladislas II, was killed by the Turks. The Habsburgs then took advantage of the vast kingdoms of Hungary and Bohemia, which laid the foundation for the later Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Marin offered Edward this plan when he was in England, and Edward adopted it. Edward then asked James IV to sign an agreement with him, stipulating that if the Scottish royal family became extinct, Edward would inherit the throne. However, when Edward pressed James IV to agree, James IV also made his own demands, which he demanded that would not take effect until he returned safely to Scotland. Otherwise, the agreement is null and void...... It is clear that James IV was afraid that Edward would kill him. Moreover, he guessed correctly......

Edward suddenly felt a little troubled, and the other party demanded that the agreement only take effect after returning to the Kingdom of Scotland, that is, in England, he could not do it. However, when he left England and entered Scotland, he was beyond his reach, so why did he do it?

Well, there is only one possibility left - let Marin do it......

Why let Marlin do it? Because Northumberland, the fief of Marin, borders Scotland. James II's condition is to return to the Kingdom of Scotland, okay, let you go home, but after crossing the border, it will be Scotland, if you are attacked and killed by Marin just after crossing the border...... It doesn't seem to be against the conditions...... Moreover, Edward knew that Marin definitely had this strength......

In fact, in addition to demanding that the treaty only take effect after his return to the country, James IV also asked Edward not to force him to hand over Queen Margaret. At the same time, let him take 50 Scottish knights to protect his safety...... In this way, even if Edward sent assassins to assassinate him after entering the territory of the Kingdom of Scotland, it would not work. After all, Scottish knights aren't vegetarians either......

It can be said that James IV even thought of the loophole that Edward sent someone to assassinate him after he returned home, which made Edward very helpless. In the end, Edward was ruthless - even if you brought 50 knights to protect your safety, Lao Tzu sent Marin to send a large army to attack and kill, so it is useless for you to have 50 knight bodyguards......

Moreover, Marin may not even need to send a large army, only a team of elites. As for the leader, Edward admired Karn's humanoid monster......

Karn's combat effectiveness, Edward had seen. Even against knights, Karn was able to fight several at a time, let alone ordinary soldiers. As long as Kahn quietly intercepted with a team of elites, the 50 Scottish knights would not be able to save James IV even if they fought to the death......

Therefore, Edward sent a secret envoy to Marin this time, hoping that Marin would send a team of elites to intercept James IV in Scotland. And the person leading the team is best Karn's humanoid Gundam...... In this way, it is possible to ensure that James IV is killed safely......

As soon as James IV entered the territory of Scotland, the agreement would come into force. And once James IV was killed, Edward would be able to become King of Scotland according to the agreement. The premise, of course, is that the interception is successful, and there must be no evidence that the English did it.

Therefore, it is impossible to send troops, so that fools know that Edward did it. The reason why James IV wanted 50 knights to protect him back was to make sure that Edward would not dare to use the army blatantly. And without the use of an army, 50 knights would be enough to keep him safe. Because the Assassins were completely abusive in front of the 50 knights in full plate armor.

It's just that James IV missed Karn's figure Gundam. If Karn had put on a full suit of plate armor and charged with a mace, the average knight would not have been able to stop him. Therefore, Kahn does not need to bring many people, as long as he leads a team of elite sneakers into the territory of Scotland, he can take out James IV......

……

This was Edward's first request - to send Karn and a team of elite knights to intercept James IV...... In this way, it can be regarded as killing people with a knife. Borrow Karn, Marin's sharpest sword, to take out James IV......

……

In addition, Edward has another request, that is, to borrow troops......

After defeating Henry VII and ascending to the throne, Edward himself trained more than 10,000 British troops as his own cronies.

However, a few days ago, Edward, in order to test the combat effectiveness of his army, sent 10,000 British troops to have a friendly exchange with Marin's Fifth Army in Sivag, England......

Then, Edward's army of more than 10,000 royal troops was beaten out of Xiang by Sivarg's Fifth Legion......

No way, Edward's army, the main body is still those of the old British army. Moreover, the elite of the first people were destroyed because they defected to Henry VII, or they could not gain Edward's trust. And the officers who were able to gain Edward's trust were either depressed in the past, or they were simply newcomers......

And Henry VII, although ruthless, was a brilliant monarch. Most of those who used to be depressed in the army were actually straw bales. Edward reused these people, and naturally he couldn't train a powerful army, even if Sivag helped him......

……

Currently, Marin is stationed in England in two legions, the fourth corps is stationed in Northumberland, and the coach is Saqqara. In order to ensure Edward's safety, the Fifth Army was stationed in London, and the commander was the former West Friesian general Sivag.

Edward had tried to woo Sivarg, who, after all, was not a descendant of Marin, but had taken refuge with later. However, Sivag was an old fox and did not agree, but watched. Although he helped Edward train his troops at Edward's request, he did not give everything he had, but had reservations. In addition, the bad habits of the old army of England were difficult to overcome, and the officers were too incompetent, so when they fought with the Fifth Army, they were suddenly beaten out......

This is still light, and if you fight with the stronger Fourth Legion, it is estimated that you will lose faster. Not to mention a duel with Marin's First Legion......

So, Edward was so devastated that he lost his self-confidence. Moreover, even if the interception of James IV was successful, Edward would definitely march into Edinburgh if he wanted to get the Scottish throne. Otherwise, the rebellious Scots would not have recognized him as an Englishman, and even if there was an agreement, they would have rebelled. That agreement, to put it bluntly, was for diplomatic purposes, and it was for the European countries to be silenced in order to be diplomatically recognized. But if you really want to be the king of Scotland, you have to rely on the army to conquer Scotland......

Although most of the Scottish army was captured, there were still troops in the country. In particular, after the defeat, it is said that Scotland carried out a national mobilization and trained a lot of new soldiers. Although he is a new soldier, he has no problem guarding several fortified cities such as Edinburgh and Glasgow.

In addition, Edward's royal army was beaten by Sivarg's Fifth Army, which made Edward lose confidence in the capture of Scotland.

Therefore, Edward's second request was for Marlin to send another legion to help destroy the Kingdom of Scotland......

Although Marin had two legions in England, he had to leave one to help defend London. Otherwise, Edward was afraid. After all, there is not so much stability within England right now. Edward went on a killing spree at the beginning, although he eliminated many opposition nobles, he could make too many enemies and enemies everywhere. Moreover, those big nobles who were killed, who knows what power they secretly left? If London was not protected by a large army, Edward did not know that he would be killed by the enemy banding together......

So, attacking Scotland, Edward intended to rely mainly on Marin's army. The reward was that Marin would get one more Scottish county. Anyway, it was Scottish land, not England's, and Edward promised that he was not distressed at all. Anyway, there are more than a dozen counties in Scotland. Give Marin one more county, Marin also takes the small head, and he is the one who takes the big head......
