Eugene sent a message to them privately, saying that this is my expedient measure, and you should give in and wait for me to come back to discuss countermeasures. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Henry openly declared that this was a royal decree signed by the Pope in black and white, and it could never be changed.

The cardinals who remained in Rome collectively voiced their voice: we can abolish the treaty by deposing Eugene and denying his legitimacy.

So Eugene was shocked: "Why do you want to abolish me?" ”

But before he could negotiate, most of the cardinals in the Lateran Palace in Rome held a ceremony for the election of the new pope, all dressed in solemn red clothes, and they were fiercely discussing the candidates in the secret room. Anselm was particularly active in private, spending large sums of money to bribe other cardinals in the hope of becoming the new pope.

As expected, he was elected the new consul of God in the "Castel Sant'Angelo" (another name for the medieval city of Rome, and the local castle was called Fort Sant'Angelo).

Just as Anselm was ready to take over the crown and scepter and take charge of the entire Lateran Palace, several cardinals suddenly approached him before the inauguration and asked him, "When you sit in the Holy See, what will you do with Henry's previous atrocities in Sutri?" ”

Anselm didn't expect such a problem, so he hesitated and vaguely declared, "I promise everything will fall back in the future." It is true that the Pope has two swords, but I think it is irrational for the secular sword to be drawn by the Pope himself. ”

The implication of this is that he is not keen on revenge on Henry the Fifth, nor does he overly advocate the spirit of the "Clunys".

The Clunians were the mainstream of thought in the Holy See at the time, and its core purpose was to liberate the churches and monasteries around the world from the secular lords and to build a "theocratic state" around the city of Rome to achieve self-governance.

Naturally, Anselm's thoughts made those who heard it extremely dissatisfied - when these cardinals withdrew, they discussed fiercely again with the other cardinals in the secret room, and in the process, Anselm's bribery was exposed, so everyone decided to remove Anselm, who had not yet been sworn in, on the grounds of bribery and proximity to the secular empire.

That night, Anselm suddenly took a batch of relics and fled the city of Rome with six of his closest (and indeed the most powerful bribes of the Bank of Bari).

A few days later, Anselm appeared in the city of Bari, and the Grand Senate of the city then met urgently to negotiate, and decided to welcome Anselm into the city by a large vote, and gave him the title of "Consul of God", that is, recognized him as the true pope, and then approved a special fund to build a palace for Anselm in the city of Bari to handle the affairs of the church, and Anselm also received a "new name for the pope" - Bonifaccius.

Anselm took office in the city of Bari, but of course was not officially recognized by the city of Rome, and they soon elected an archbishop from Portugal, Bagu, as the new pope, and also received the "new name of the pope", Benedict.

Henry the Fifth, who saw the Pope's split, was overjoyed, and he was also crowned anyway, and he was also happy to see the kingdom of God fall apart in Rome, so Henry the Fifth simply picked up his father's tooth and wisdom again: in Ravenna, he brought out the previous "false pope", who was originally a layman named Gilbert. As a result, Henry V gave him three ordination appointments in one day, from lay man to deacon to parish bowl to so-called cardinal, and then to the second time he was appointed pope, namely Gilbert. Sylvester.

And Owen Seth, who could not return to the city of Rome. Eugene had to go to Tuscany to take refuge under Duchess Matilda, but he also had the support of some of the old cardinals and monasteries, and continued to call the shots in the name of the Orthodox Emperor.

It seems that in just one night, the whole papal state was turned upside down, divided into four, all claiming to be the real cards, of course, the countries and the faithful were stunned, and in order to show the distinction, they could only be called "the old pope" (i.e. Eugene, also called the Tuscan pope), the "new pope" (i.e. Benedict, also called the Pope of San Angelo), the "Pope of Barry" (poor Anselm. Bonifaccius) and "Pope Ravenna" (Gilbert. Sylvester).

Now Eugene has the support of the Monastery of Cassino and the Duchess, the Grand Count of Sicily, and is looking for more allies.

Benedict, on the other hand, was recognized by the local nobility and populace of the city of Rome.

Needless to say, Silvester of Ravenna is just a tool in Henry's fifth hand, staying in the local area and rarely showing up, with little influence, and is probably really just a mascot.

Anselm in the city of Kebari. Bonifaccius, however, was quite enterprising, and he quickly and efficiently organized the halls and teams, and used him as his banner to absorb the "Hellenistic elements" in the churches throughout Italy, and quickly grew to compete with the orthodox Holy See in Rome. Anselm's life is also quite singable, originally he was sent to Bari City by the previous pope, just to purge and expel the local Greek sect, but now he has become the leader of this group of people, so the fate of people is really delicate.

And at this moment, everyone with a discerning eye knows that this Pope Bari is obviously eating the rice in Talsus Gawain's bowl, and he is Gawain's agent.

Eugene, who learned the truth, was also extremely furious and began to discuss with Matilda to prepare a series of measures to crack down on Gawain.

But all this is no longer in Gawain's eyes.

As soon as he heard the news of the "Sutri Change", Gawain decisively ordered - the whole army seized the opportunity, no longer paid attention to any orders and arbitrations from the Pope, and carried out landing operations in Constantinople and the Gallipoli Peninsula on the one hand, and sent the other half of the task force to the port of Medea to be under the command of Grand Count Merlot, and fought a decisive battle with the imperial coalition forces of Roger, Tetisius, Mikhail, and Gondletto!

Soon, Marimara sailed on the sea, and the cannons rumbled, and Nikephoros was ordered to sit in the city of Abydos. Although the Grand Duke of Brenus was not capable of the battlefield, he was still excellent in logistics and dispatch: he prepared roads, built and repaired dry docks, and successfully sent batches of light ships, equipment and personnel to Gallipoli.

In the port of Gallipoli, there were six large Venetian ships of Calais, and four Sicilian ships, commanded by Sicilian Abuh, who were waiting for orders to cross the Bosphorus and go to the Black Sea to cut off the supply lines of Media.

But now Abuhe found himself struggling to keep control of the Marimara Inland Sea.

Because the enemy has created too many wolf and grasshopper-like "skuas" light long boats, in a word, it is overwhelming!
