Chapter Eighty-Eight: A Question of Logic
B.C. 209, when Chen Sheng and Wu Guang mustered up the courage of this life to shout the sentence 'Princes and generals have a kind of Xiangning' in Daze Township, which completely changed the fate of China for more than 2,000 years, they would never have thought that on the other side of the world, princes and generals could really have a kind of situation.

The son of an earl will always be an earl, the son of an archduke will always be an archduke, the son of a king will always be a king, the son of an emperor - this may not always be an emperor, but he is definitely not bad.
The class status is as solid as the hardest boulder, and the common people will never have a way to advancement, and the birth, bloodline, and conventional rules oppress everyone, so that they dare not take a step beyond the thunder pool, to take the simplest example, when the Grand Duke of Mulchid wanted to pass on the Duke of Munster to the Earl of Little Tang, didn't he also accept the Earl of Little Tang as his righteous son, and then he could pass it on justifiably?
Therefore, in the Middle Ages, history was the history of the aristocracy, and the changes were the changes of the family, and the nobles who performed the stage were always only the nobles on the stage, and as for the most ordinary commoners, no one cared unless they were like that kind of genius-like figure.
And in the autumn of this year, a major event occurred in the British Isles, which is enough to go down in history.
"King Dehebas is dead? If he dies, he will die, what does it have to do with us? β
The Earl of Little Don said indifferently, an archduke who often claims to be the king in a corner of Britain, not to mention that he is far away, he has never been in contact, why did the knight of Alcoba come to inform him?
"If you really feel that you can't get by, then bring some gifts, go to remember the old king, celebrate the new king's accession, everything is OK!"
Count Don thought about it again, and felt that everyone was a nobleman, and he didn't care at all, and he did not say that he would goβhe felt that this was what the knight of Alcoba meant, and that it was all the death of an archduke, so he had to express his sadness and tie over the relationship with the new archduke by the way.
"This ...... That's not what I'm trying to say, Lord Earl! β
The knight of Alcoba couldn't help but laugh, although it was indeed important, but there were many more serious things at the moment!
"Lord Earl! The English are going to war with us, and we must call up all our soldiers! β
After thinking about it, the Olcoba knight simply said the conclusion directly, the little Count Tang of the province was cranky, and then he looked at the little Count Tang blinking his cute eyes, staring at him in a daze.
Blah blah blah, I don't make sense of this logic of yours, ah, why is an inexplicable archduke dead, and King William is going to attack Ireland? Could it be that this duke has any supernatural powers that can protect the peace of the whole of Ireland? And King William, don't we all say that there are strong neighbors around us, and there are many rebellions in the country, why do we suddenly have the ability to attack Ireland?
Hey, director, someone doesn't play cards according to the script!
"Lord Earl, King De Hebas left two sons, originally according to the inheritance law, the eldest son was to succeed to the throne, in fact, it is indeed the eldest son to succeed to the throne, the eldest son's ability, prestige, and prestige are stronger than the second son, and the second son also gave up the competition and ran to King William as a courtier......"
"What's the matter, I don't think there's a problem, Guotai Min'an."
Count Xiao Tang continued to blink his eyes, this is all good, the brothers didn't read the wall, and the vassals were also convinced, how can you say that a war is a war?
"The problem is that the second son has run away to King William!"
The knight of Alcoba sighed, and did not know whether to sigh for the coming war, or for the stupidity of the little Count Don.
"Although the second son has renounced the right of inheritance, as long as he is alive, he will remain the legitimate heir of the Duchy of Dehebas, and King William can take advantage of this to push the second son to the front of the stage and use his name to obtain the entire Duchy of Dehebas."
Count Don Jr. still blinked.
"This means that King William can go to war against the Duchy of Dehebas, that is to say, he declares war on the whole of Ireland, that is to say, he declares war on us, and we must be ready for war!"
Blah, blah, Earl Don Jr. is confused again, what is a declaration of war on the Duchy of Dehebas is a declaration of war on Ireland, is this duke or the king of Ireland can't be?
"Lord Earl, why don't you understand!" The knight of Olcobar said bitterly: "The Duchy of De Hebas was originally founded by us Irish - although it is now Welsh, but it does not matter, the important thing is that he is our subject - although it is also Welsh now, it does not matter. The important thing is that once the war starts, Dehebas will definitely ask us for help, and we can't refuse, not only us, but the whole of Ireland, all the dukes and all the earls, all will be involved, this is a national war! β
Earl Don Jr...... Blink your eyes.
Do not understand? If you don't understand, many medieval wars, including the later First World War, were fought very inexplicably, Russia thought that Germany was going to fight him, so it began to mobilize the reserve army, and when Germany saw that Russia was mobilized, it immediately committed persecution paranoia, thinking that France was going to carve up Germany with Russia, and immediately declared war on France, but to fight France, it had to pass through Belgium, so Germany declared war on Belgium by the way, and Belgium was a British protectorate, so Britain entered the war, And so the First World War began. (Real history isn't that simple, bastard!) οΌ
This time it's almost the same, Ireland can be seen as the father of the Duchy of Dehebas, although Dehebas later recognized Wales as a godfather, but his son was beaten, and he can't help but stand up for his son, right?
What's more, Ireland and Wales are both Celts, but England is Saxon, the hatred of these two races has been entangled since the sixth century AD, and the Welsh people at the beginning were driven from England to Wales by the Saxons.
"Stop, stop!"
Count Xiao Tang was so confused by this chaotic logical problem that he was so confused, what the hell is this, you are all idle and panicked, and the peaceful days are uncomfortable, so you have to fight a battle to vent your anger, don't you?!
"Knight Alcoba, listen well, whoever will come and let us send troops in the future, you answer him like this: We, Desmond, have always adhered to the path of peaceful development as the center, advocated that the two sides concerned use dialogue to solve problems, and resolutely condemned any irresponsible major power that provoked war......"
