Swiftly whipped, the Huguenots rode to the seashore and sailed to London.

As a messenger, naturally he can't be a small person, otherwise he won't be able to show their sincerity.

Baron Périgueg assumed the task of emissary.

Among the Huguenot aristocracy, Baron Périgueg was the backbone of the entire faction, and was a follower of the Huguenots, who always sought to make the Huguenots the orthodox religion of France.

However, the strength of French Catholicism is too strong, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the eldest son of Catholicism, and it is difficult for Protestants to shake the situation at this time.

As a baron in his thirties, he has enough life experience, of course, he knows that today's France is a powder keg, and if he is not careful, he will be blown to pieces.

In this way, he was shrewd, and immediately spent a lot of Lille to get this errand.

Although I am a little tired, I still have merit and no danger, which is really a rare errand.

So, with this in mind, the Baron came to London to meet His Majesty, who had little presence in Europe.

After getting off the ship, the baron turned his head to see that the dock was extremely wide, clean and tidy, and the dust on the ground did not seem to exist, as if it was not in the dock, but in the mansion of some nobleman.

The laborers in short clothes follow a different kind of order, and carry out their work in an orderly manner, harmonious, quiet, are their adjectives.

What's more, there were a lot of merchants coming and going, the accents were extremely chaotic, and even some Ottoman merchants could be seen, which made the Baron extremely amazed.

This is a place comparable to the port of Marseille, is the English already so powerful?

The Baron couldn't stop sighing in his heart, but the look on his face was still as usual.

Out of the docks, the Baron took his attendants, summoned a carriage, and went to the French Embassy in England.

Along the way, he lifted the curtains, looked at the neat roads and facades, the crowded and orderly streets, the endless shouting, and the picture of economic prosperity and prosperity suddenly froze in his mind, which made his heart more and more surprised.

It is astonishing that this country, which has had a grudge with France for hundreds of years, has developed to such a point.

Then, he suddenly realized something.

Only by turning France into a Huguenot world will the whole of France be like England, with an economic boom and a strong national power.

Defeat the Catholic League, which is their only quest now.

Arriving at the Embassy, Baron Périgueux was cordially received by His Excellency the Ambassador.

The ambassador to England was a pro-Huguenot nobleman, so he had no scruples to ask for help.

The next day, the post of the representatives of the Huguenots in France, who had come to ask for an audience, had already arrived at the palace.

His Majesty, who had already received the news, did not personally receive the emissary, and convened an extraordinary cabinet meeting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, as expected, the French Huguenots have sent emissaries to ask for help, do you have any ideas?"

Edward asked, sitting on the throne, looking at the well-dressed cabinet ministers.

"Your Majesty, at present, the Catholic League has a huge advantage in the army, and for the sake of today, only a quick attack on Paris is the way to victory for the Huguenots!"

Hearing this, Edward glanced at the prime minister, who had remarkable talents in governing the country but had not made many achievements in military affairs, and was curious in his heart, and asked, "What are you talking about?" ”

"Your Majesty, at this point, we in the United Kingdom have only one way to go, so only by letting the Huguenots fight a quick battle, directly under the city of Paris, and hold back the main forces of those Catholic Leagues, will we get the greatest benefits!"

His Excellency the Prime Minister looked at the surprised glances of the King and his ministers, and felt a sense of pride in his heart.

For so long, he has been showing himself as a civil official, but not many people know that he also has deep attainments in strategy.

Now, his words directly shocked everyone, which made him very proud.

But our Majesty the King knows it in his heart.

This is the important minister of the Elizabethan period recorded in history, the William who played a great role in England's defeat of Spain. Cesselsi.

Sure enough, those who have left names in history cannot be underestimated.

Although he does not know what this religious war was like in history, according to his own observations, the difference in strength between the Catholic League and the Huguenots was indeed very large.

The huge population gap alone cannot be bridged

"Go on, Mr. Prime Minister!" A look of relief suddenly appeared on His Majesty Edward's face. Sersi couldn't read it.

However, gaining the trust of His Majesty the King is what he should do.

Although he is the head of the cabinet, all the ministers are appointed by His Majesty the King himself, and he is only the head of the civil service!

If you want to make a big difference, you must have the unity of the members of the Cabinet, and only if you have the confidence of His Majesty the King.

So, he immediately spoke energetically.

"In this way, let them send troops to hold back the main force, and we will send troops to take advantage of Calais directly and quickly capture Rouen, so that the Normandy region is in our hands!"

"Then support the Huguenots, and let them fight against each other with the Catholic League, and we will gradually encroach on France, and at that time, it will not be long before France will be bathed in the glory of His Majesty the King!"

In the end, William, Sersi suddenly became excited, looked impassioned, bowed to Edward, and then faced the other cabinet members, waving his arms and shouting loudly.

Such a scene really shocked everyone, and the speech was so powerful and so bold.

In fact, after the Hundred Years' War, and even in the later years of Henry VIII, everyone in England abandoned their pursuit of France, including Henry VIII.

This is just like the Eastern Jin Dynasty in history, if you want to recover the territory, it is the interests of the south that will be consumed, and in the end, it is the northern scholars who are sitting in the court, which one is willing.

The same is true of England, where the English and the aristocracy no longer want to sacrifice the interests of England for the sake of the king.

Although the ministers were stunned, they reacted and looked at His Majesty's face from the side, and when they found that there was nothing unusual, they understood.

As a result, this proposal was supported by all cabinet members.

At this point, the dispatch of troops is already iron-clad, but Normandy is a hard bone, and it is necessary to prepare for both.

"Your Excellency the Prime Minister said it well, but in addition to Normandy, Brittany must also march!"
