In addition to these two great empires, the surrounding Ottoman Turkish Empire, the Russian Empire, the Crimean Kingdom, the Kingdom of Spain, the Kingdom of Portugal, the Kingdom of Naples, the Kingdom of Denmark and other countries also began to gather soldiers and display these soldiers on the borders of the Holy Roman Empire.

After the declaration of war, the French Empire did not hesitate, and its 50,000 soldiers stepped directly into the land of the Holy Roman Empire.

Coincidentally, this time the commander of the strikers was still the previous Field Marshal Rausch Tyrande, and the path they chose was to cross the Rhine and pass through the mountain pass where they had fought Eugen.

Three days after the departure of the rear, the large army in the rear also stepped into the land of the Holy Roman Empire.

The four generalissimos of the French Empire went out together, and no one led an army of 50,000, and after the 150,000 army entered the Holy Roman Empire, they began to disperse and go to various places to conquer cities.

Since there was no unified and powerful family on the southwestern border, the strength could not be gathered, so there was no way to stop these large armies of the French Empire.

After the French Empire's army came to the city, the lords of various places had no choice but to abandon the city and flee, and some who could not escape were captured.

Dressed in French iron armor with the mark of a French irise, these murderous soldiers passed through the village chiefs and immediately plundered the already poor villages.

This behavior created a large number of displaced people, and in this way, the French Empire wanted to make people feel that the Holy Roman Emperor had no way to protect his people, and thus undermine the prestige of the Holy Roman Emperor.

All of a sudden, the smoke of gunfire filled the land where the French Imperial army had passed, and it looked extremely miserable, and more and more peasants began to leave their homes and migrate to the interior of the Holy Roman Empire.

A week later, the vanguard led by General Rausch Tyrande had arrived near Heidelberg, one of the few important cities in the Empire that was the site of the Doctor's Tournament.

In order to fend off the enemy army, most of the nobles of the Southwest Alliance of the Holy Roman Empire gathered their soldiers here, and together with the Marquis of Palatinate the Blood Lion, formed a coalition of 30,000 people, ready to rely on the fortified city to resist the French Empire's army.

However, Rausch Tyrande showed his amazing command skills this time, he actually let a small group of soldiers infiltrate the city of Heidelberg, and then quietly opened the city gates at night.

50,000 elite soldiers of the French Empire took advantage of the night to enter the city, and the coalition soldiers who hurriedly met them could not defeat these terrible enemies, and the strong French soldiers rushed into the coalition soldiers like hungry tigers, killing frantically.

In this way, in less than two days, Heidelberg was declared lost, and the Marquis of Palatinate the Blood Lion was captured, along with more than a dozen nobles of all sizes, including another one of the five marquis of the Southwest Alliance.

So far, the number of nobles captured by the French Empire has reached dozens, and the redemption of these nobles alone is an astronomical number.

To make matters worse, the ambitions of the French Empire were clearly not limited to this, they were not asking for ransom, but large swaths of the Holy Roman Empire.

After the Battle of Heidelberg, Field Marshal Rausch Tyrande simply garrisoned the city with a few thousand men, and then led a large army into the interior of the Holy Roman Empire, which he meant to attack Vienna directly.

The fall of Heidelberg had a significant impact on the Empire.

You must know that Heidelberg's position in the entire empire is equivalent to an important node, connecting the central and western parts of the empire.

Seeing this situation, the Duchy of Hanover, located in the northwest, did not send troops to attack Heidelberg to regain the field, but directly chose to declare itself and annex itself to the British Empire as a whole.

There were some connections between the Duchy of Hanover and the British Empire, and at this moment, I didn't know what benefits the British Empress had promised to the Welf family, so she unconditionally attached herself to the past.

For a time, the western frontier of the empire fell, and nearly a quarter of the territory of the Holy Roman Empire became the land of outsiders.

The French Empire's offensive was so fierce and effective that it seemed that the surrounding countries saw the weakness of the Holy Roman Empire, and for a time wolves rose up together, surrounding the Holy Roman Empire from all sides, all wanting to tear off a piece of flesh from the ruined Empire.

The Kingdom of Denmark in the north bordered the Duchy of Saxony, and took this opportunity to directly send 10,000 troops to invade the Duchy of Saxony.

The Duchy of Saxon was also part of the Holy Roman Empire, previously guarded by the Vedina family, who had been completely crippled in the previous war, and had no way to defend in the face of this situation, but reduced all the soldiers to the central city of Dresden, allowing the Danes to travel on the territory of the empire.

The power of the Kingdom of Denmark is very weak, but at this moment, it is such a weak monkey-like country that dares to jump up and snatch things from the lion of the Holy Roman Empire.

Monkeys are like that, let alone other empires as powerful as behemoths.

The Ottoman Empire, the Kingdom of Spain, the Kingdom of Portugal, and the Kingdom of Naples joined forces to form a huge coalition of more than 100,000 troops, led by the Ottoman Turkish Empire.

The coalition forces formed an invincible fleet by ships, and through the shipping routes in the Mediterranean, they directly attacked Venice and wanted to kill from this port to land.

Venice and Vienna are less than 300 kilometers away in a straight line, and if Venice falls, the situation in Vienna will be very dangerous.

On the other side, the Russian Empire and the Crimean Kingdom each sent 50,000 troops to invade the Holy Roman Empire from the north.

The Hohenzollern family, located in the northern part of the empire, had the intention of resisting it, but with their current strength, there was no way to fight against this 100,000 army.

In the end, they had no choice but to succumb to reality, and reluctantly gathered their soldiers in the city of Berlin, giving up all the surrounding territories and allowing them to pass through their territory.

All of a sudden, wars raged across the country, and they were attacking the interior of the Holy Roman Empire.

They are like crazy wolves, constantly tearing at the flesh and blood of the Holy Roman Empire, trying to increase their power.

It has been a law of the jungle since ancient times, and even in these large countries, the situation is no different.
