Section 89: Meeting Decision-making

Having captured the captives, the Danish king and queen Grace soon learned that the Norwegians were marching through the moor with an army of 2,000 men to support the Swedes, and that if they were to merge they would outnumber the Danes in strength. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"He must be lying, the Norwegians have so many troops from them to come to their aid?" The Danish king said in disbelief that he also had his own spies, and that the Norwegians had been greatly weakened since they withdrew from the British islands.

"However, we can't afford to be on guard, and maybe we should look for stronger reinforcements." Grace said to the King of Denmark.

"You mean, asking for help from the Duchy of Mecklenburg?" The Danish king immediately realized what his wife meant, and even the Danes, who had been in the war in the north, had recently heard of the Duchy of Mecklenburg being active, intervening in the internal affairs of the East Frankish kingdom, and helping Otto suppress the Bohemian invasion.

"Yes." Grace nodded clearly, the king of Denmark provoked a war against the Swedes, although it was for the reasons of the land and the spread of faith, but Grace also understood that if it was not preemptive, I am afraid that the Swedes and Norwegians would also have to destroy Denmark, this is a war to the death.

"Understood, send an emissary to ask the Duke of Mecklenburg to send troops to support." The Danish king, persuaded by his wife, made up his mind, and he immediately ordered.

At this time, Arold also noticed the war in the north, which had caused many fewer merchant ships to travel to and from the sea, and the self-destruction and sinking of the Mecklenburg warship, the Angry Lion, and rumors spread in the harbor and territory.

"Lord Duke, we must fight back resolutely." Brother Elvet spoke loudly, his words resonating among the courtiers, and many of the young Mecklenburg nobles began to bang on the wooden table in front of them.

"Tsk, is this the court proceedings in Mecklenburg?" Alva, a Mecklenburg nobleman in a wolf's head coat of arms, walked into the council chamber under the leadership of Sean, of course, as a low-ranking nobleman, he was not qualified to stand in front, so he could only stand by the column by the gate, but even this meant that he entered the political center of Mecklenburg.

"Shhhh Sean reminded Alva in a low voice.

"Yes." Sir Alva said humbly, he knew that although he had the title of knight, his family had moved from Lorraine, and there was no foundation in Mecklenburg, and Arrod's style of doing things seemed to be very different from other dukes, and he had to remain humble in the face of Sean, Arrod's henchman.

"I'd like to remind Brother Elvet that we don't have ships at the moment, so how can we attack those pirates?" Dylan. Matt frowned, and he slowly walked out to the nobles in the conference hall.

"We also have merchant ships, so that soldiers can board merchant ships, which can also confuse pirates." Brother Elvet also said without showing weakness.

"What if a merchant ship is sunk at sea? Let our soldiers feed the sharks? "At this time, Dylan. Matt didn't speak, instead sitting on his left Dylan. A middle-aged nobleman on Matt's side stepped forward and said.

Sir Alva stood beside the column and watched carefully, and suddenly spotted Dylan on the left side of the chamber. Matt, and the nobles led by Brother Elvet on the right confronted each other, Arold sat on the throne in the middle, as if listening carefully to the arguments between the two sides, and Princess Josie sat beside Arold, the princess of Mecklenburg showed no impatience, only their son William Jr. writhed in his mother's arms.

"It's funny, Lord Sean, why are the nobles on the left and right so different, is it deliberately arranged by the Duke?" Sir Alva asked Sean curiously.

"Haha, the Duke doesn't care about this kind of thing, it's just that the nobles who are close to the palace minister and the chief justice always consciously sit on the left and right sides, so it's slowly becoming like this!" Sean shrugged his shoulders and said to Sir Alva.

"So the rumors are true." Sir Alva smiled and said.

"What rumors?"

"There was a court faction and a court faction in the court of Mecklenburg." Sir Alva said in a low voice.

"Hmph, what nonsense, there's no such thing." Sean denied it, but knew that this explanation was simply self-defeating, so he lowered his voice and said to Sir Alva, "In fact, in the court people talk more often about the left and the right. ”

"Oh, leftists and rightists, that's right, so what kind of faction are we?" Sir Alva saw that the seats on both sides were divided into left and right, so he crossed his arms and asked casually.

"We belong to the duke, and we have only one master, and that is the Duke of Mecklenburg, the ruler." Sean lifted his chin and pointed to Arrod, who was sitting in the middle, and said to Sir Alva.

"When we can't find a nest, we're like arrows without a target." A nobleman on the left stood up angrily and said.

"Ping~~."

"Who said we couldn't find those pirates' lair." At that moment, the door of the conference hall was slammed open, and the voice of a crisp woman entered, and there were very few women in this conference hall who could enter.

"Havena, when did you come back?" Brother Elvet was surprised to see Havina enter, and the nobles who had questioned the mistaken information also retreated.

"If I don't come back, I'm afraid my intelligence network will be said to be useless." Havina wore a long dress, which was more feminine than she had ever been, as if she were not an intelligence chief, but an ordinary noblewoman.

"Havina, have you found the pirate's lair?" When Arold saw Havina appear, he immediately straightened up from his throne, and he immediately asked Havina.

"Yes, Lord Duke, I found it, but they are under the protection of the Norwegian lords, and I am afraid that we will not be able to destroy them until we defeat the Norwegians." Havina said to Arold.

"It seems that the Norwegians really want to be our enemy, and perhaps we should contact the Danes and join them in their crusade against the Swedes and Norwegians." Arold said to Brother Elvet.

"I immediately wrote a letter and sent an envoy to the King of Denmark." Brother Elvet agreed.

The chamber confirmed support for the Danes, Arold disbanded the meeting and left only Havina, and even Princess Josie left the chamber, and when Princess Josie got up to leave, she glanced thoughtfully at Arold and Havina.

"You~~." Arold left Havina to say that it was not a military matter, but looked Havina up and down.

"How?" Havina stood in front of Arrod prettyly, smiling like a big sister next door, without the unruliness and fierceness of the past.

"You rarely wear a dress?" Arold crossed his hands and said to Havena.

"Oh, this! I wore it because I was going to spy on intelligence, but I happened to find that it was actually very suitable for dressing. Havina lifted the hem of her skirt and curtsied Arrode, like a true noblewoman.

"Well, it's a good fit for you." Arold nodded, he stood up and walked in front of Habina, for some reason he felt that Havina seemed to have a different brilliance than before, so he couldn't help but reach out and try to wrap his arms around Havina's waist, but Havina took a step back to dodge.

"Your wife has just left, and besides, I'm very tired today, if the Duke is fine, please allow me to leave and go back to rest." Havina dodged Arrod's hand and said to him.

"Ah, yes, yes, I'll continue to ask you for information about Vikan later." Arold retracted his hand in a sneer, in the past, it was always Havina who teased him first, making him horny, but this time Havina's cold attitude made Arold seem to be poured a basin of cold water, but it made Arold feel unstoppable.

"Smack." Havina turned to leave the chamber, the door slamming shut, and Arold looked at Havina's back as she turned away, and felt that something was wrong.
