As Viscount Damtast said, this matter did not benefit Eugen at all, and on the contrary, it can be said that Eugen lost a lot.

If he had time, he would slowly negotiate a ransom with the French Empire, and then sell the loot through appropriate channels. The total profit from the last war might have reached more than 200,000 kilds, which was a considerable amount of money.

But now, in order to get a large amount of cash in a short period of time, Eugen had to entrust Viscount Damtast to help him deal with this matter through a transfer.

He himself was to take 50,000 kilds from Viscount Dhamtast, and the viscount promised him a total of 100,000 kilds. It's just that the viscount doesn't have that much cash at the moment, and he needs to borrow some money from the big merchant of Owen Ross to be able to pay the rest of the money.

All these gold coins, Viscount Darmstast, promised to deliver them personally to Eugen's lodgings the next morning, after the regular military meeting.

Walking out of the living room and into the courtyard, Eugen said to the two Rambo, who were waiting outside: "Now go and rest, tomorrow I have an important task for you." ”

The two of them didn't say a word, just nodded silently, and turned to leave. It's 10 p.m., and the feast is only halfway through and won't really end until about 4 a.m.

Rambo had planned to meet a beautiful lady in the second half of the banquet and make an intense and heartwarming memory in Kassel. However, as a knight, you have to go to battle for your own master at any time. As soon as Eugen's order came out, they would naturally obey unconditionally, and there would be no displeasure in their hearts.

Eugen had already said goodbye to Viscount Darmstäst, and he followed Rambo and the others out of the castle, ready to return to his tent in the barracks.

"Have fun, friends, and have fun, time is running out."

When he walked out of the castle gate, Eugen turned his head to look at the celebrities and ladies who were still indulging in pleasure, and said indifferently with a hint of inexplicable expression on his face.

At six o'clock the next morning, Eugen and his noble knights discussed the military situation in the military tent. These men had been drunk at a banquet in Kasselburg the previous night, and not long after they had fallen asleep, they were dragged out of the crowd by the men sent by Eugen and gathered into the tent where the meeting was held.

At the moment, most of them were in a half-asleep state, and it was obvious that even if Eugen had any instructions, it would be difficult for them to listen, let alone remember.

But Eugen didn't care about that, and it was almost impossible to have any more urgent military orders in the future. After this crushing defeat, the French Empire was unable to continue its offensive in the face of the capture of its military commander. Perhaps the letter of the French peace is already on its way to Vienna, at least there will be no major problems in Kasselburg at the moment.

This military meeting was also mainly aimed at handing over the command of the troops to Viscount Dhamtast, who was responsible for guarding the area while Eugen was away.

Viscount Damtast slept late last night, and it had nothing to do with attending the banquet, but because of the sudden windfall, he couldn't sleep excitedly. After all, he didn't have much kild gold in his taxes in Kasselburg for a year, and the 50,000 kild gold coins were still the wealth he had accumulated over the years.

As a result, this sudden transaction will multiply his fortune several times, and it will be exciting for anyone to put on him. Therefore, he still got up early the next day, and the whole person was as excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood. Gold coins have such magical powers, it can keep people awake from sleep, and it can also wake people up early in the morning.

After a brief discussion, Viscount Darmtast also had some idea of what was going on between him and France, and what might happen in the future.

According to Eugen's speculation, it would take at least six months to complete a series of routine procedures such as signing an agreement with France, paying the ransom, and returning the captives. This meant that Viscount Darmstast would not have to worry about the invasion from the French Empire for six months, and he would have peace of mind during this period.

With Eugen's assurance, Viscount Darmast was completely relieved. He was a hereditary nobleman with little ambition, and his few fiefs were obtained by the shadow of his ancestors. It can be said that he doesn't know anything about war or anything, and if the French Empire fights, he will only have to surrender Kaesong.

Eugen didn't say anything, he left this time to stop the Black Death. In case he fails and allows the Black Death to spread to Europe, then there is no need to worry about anything.

After being devastated by the Black Death, France, let alone six months, even if it is six or sixty years, may not be able to recover and attack the Holy Roman Empire again.

In other words, if the Black Death spread among the Holy Roman Empire, the French would have nothing to come from, and what would be the value of a wasteland full of dead corpses?

It took several hours to finally put the matter of troops and Viscount Damtast to death, and Eugen declared the meeting to be dismissed. After everyone left, Eugen's retainers Rambo and Corleone came to Eugen to wait for orders.

Eugen had slept late the night, and in the middle of the night, he had tried to scrape through his mind for knowledge about the Black Death while thinking about what to do. At this moment, although he still felt powerless, he finally had some general ideas.

Seeing Rambo and Corleone coming in, Eugen rubbed the corners of his sour eyes and led them to the front of the military map. Next to the map was a small wooden table with several sheets of paper covered in handwriting.

"Rambo, how many assets are available in my name at present, you can tell me." Eugen sat down on the blanket at the wooden table with a little tiredness, looked at Rambo and asked.

Rambo pondered for a moment, then replied, "Report to your Excellency, you have two estates in Vienna and Milan that have gold coins in each, and the total should be around 30,000 kilds. In addition, a small part of the wealth of the Habsburgs can be transferred in your capacity, and the total amount should be 100,000 kilds. ”

Eugen's finances have always been taken care of by Rambo, so if it weren't for him, Eugen really didn't know that he was such a tyrant.

The kild coin was the most valuable currency in circulation in the Holy Roman Empire, and the conversion system was 1 kild gold coin = 24 groschen silver coins = 60 small crosses silver coins = 240 copper puffines.

According to the standard of living of ordinary peasants, one kild gold coin is enough for the life of an ordinary family of three for three months.
