The current situation in Europe is not good, but it is not bad.

For the people living on the European continent, they have gone from habit to numbness.

Compared to the East, wars are more frequent here in Europe. Wars between nations, wars between the great nobles and the great nobles, and even conflicts between the lords of the minor nobles, were frequent.

Therefore, Westerners are much more miserable than Easterners in this era.13

However, it is precisely because of this relationship that the people living on the European continent are not unaccustomed to it.

I have to say that human adaptability to the environment is still very strong.

But, there is a limit to this.

That is, at least you can ensure that you can live.

If this limit is breached, even the people of continental Europe will not be able to stand it.

Now this situation has begun to touch people's limits.

The rumors spread by Jenny and her sisters have spread very quickly.

When the people heard that the church was about to start looting their wealth again, they could no longer be calm.

The reason is very simple, because of war and disease, everyone basically can't survive now. It's just that now I can barely sustain one meal a day, and I can't starve to death.

After all, it is better to die than to live, and as long as there is hope of living, then these people will have no other ideas.

But now it's different, and if the church really starts to loot for wealth again, as the rumors say, it's basically like it's impossible for poor families to survive.

The people of the European continent were well aware of the methods of the Church.

In a word, if the church asks for money and you don't have it, then needless to say, you will definitely be called a 'demon monster', and you will be arrested and tortured to death in the Inquisition. There is no other way.

At that time, it will not be as simple as the destruction of the family.

At this moment, in the territory controlled by the alliance of the church vassal states, those people were not calm.

It's just going to kill their rhythm.

If you don't resist, you really won't be able to survive.

Therefore, under the influence of rumors, the territory controlled by the alliance of the vassal states of the church began to be unstable, and there was some turmoil.

Many people have taken risks and gathered one after another, preparing to use force to fight the rumored loot.

Even, there are already some people who have organized. and killed some of their local nobles, and then used the wealth of the nobles to start gathering more men.

Jenny and the others couldn't have imagined that this rumor they came up with would cause such a big turmoil.

Some small-scale uprisings have begun to appear sporadically.

No one knows if it will eventually sweep through the territory of the allied forces of the Church vassal states with the same momentum as it will also burn the prairies.

Although now these uprisings are sporadic and the number of people is not large. The armament or anything is not very sophisticated. But let's not forget that there are a lot of poor people on the roads of Europe today.

Once these people are really brought together, then they are also a very terrifying force.

This can't help but be alarming.

But. Now, on the side of the alliance of the vassal states, there are still a bunch of troubles that have not been solved.

Now, there is another situation like this, but it is a headache for the people on the side of the church.

The morale of the military that was now confronting the French was already unstable. Now there is such a terrible problem again, but it is still impossible to let people live.

Damn the church, earlier everyone saw the trouble this issue would cause. And came up with a solution.

But the iron roosters didn't pull out a hair, and they wanted to solve this troublesome problem.

Now, at last, the trouble that everyone is worried about has appeared.

Hum!

In the alliance of the vassal states of the church, there are even people who have maliciously thought that it would be better to lose this war and then let the church suffer a big loss.

Aren't they iron roosters a hair?

When the time comes, let the French, who won the war, clean them up, and the old men of the church will know how stupid the decision they have made.

Of course, people who think this way are in the minority.

Most people still want to solve the current troubles as soon as possible.

However, in addition to the unstable morale of the army caused by the arrears of military salaries and the turbulent impact caused by rumors, there is also a bad thing now.

That is, the French actually sent assassins and assassins, and launched unconventional means and actions against the coalition of church vassal states, so during this period, several high-ranking generals were killed in the coalition of church vassal states, and a large number of middle-level generals were killed.

And the death of these people has led to the emergence of a number of vacancies in the army, which cannot be filled by suitable people in a short period of time.

After all, it is still the time of the war, and it is impossible to find people who do not know anything to fill those vacant positions, and it is not so easy to find people who understand military knowledge, and who are talented.

Even if they find it, it depends on which side of the force they belong to and who they are friends with...... Therefore, it is a real mess on the side of the church princes.

Fortunately, the situation on the side of their enemy, the French, was no better than theirs.

Therefore, there is no need to worry that the French will take advantage of the opportunity to attack them in this chaotic time.

Because the French were also attacked by killers and assassins, and lost a lot of big and small nobles.

Therefore, the French army was also a little confused, so there was no time to launch a military campaign against the allied forces of the vassal states of the Church at this time.

Although the French also knew that now was a good opportunity to launch a military campaign on the side of the vassal states of the Church. But the problem is that their side is also in chaos, and they can't carry out such a military operation smoothly.

Therefore, the French can only watch this good opportunity slip away in front of their eyes and have no choice but to do it.

As for the allies of the French, the Portuguese, because they had just been restored for a little more than two years, and their war strength was not very strong at all, they could not be counted on at all.

Now it's just a matter of asking the Portuguese to be able to defend their own defenses and not make stupid moves.

The French also did not ask for the Portuguese. How much of a difference it can make.

That is to say, but to ask the Portuguese for nothing, only for the Portuguese to be innocent.

Look, how simple the idea is.

Therefore, every day, many French envoys would come to the Portuguese to convey their ideas.

And the Portuguese also know how many catties they have, and of course they won't do that kind of brain-dead thing.

This made the French feel a lot more relieved and relieved at the same time.

Of course, the French also hastened to start selecting suitable generals to fill the void that had arisen due to the assassination. Then the army was assembled and preparations were being launched for an attack on the vassal states of the Church.

Because the French know that this is an opportunity, a chance to be able to beat their opponents.

If they miss this opportunity, they will definitely regret it.

The movements on the side of the French, of course, also affected the people on the side of the vassal states of the Church.

The spies of the vassal states of the Church were not vegetarians, and they had very accurate information about the French.

It is obvious that now they must hurry to solve the trouble, or else they will be the ones who will suffer if they get the French out of the trouble.

In the current situation of their own family. It was obviously a little powerless to confront the French.

However, if you fail, you will be doomed, right?

Fortunately, just when the generals of the allied forces of the vassal states of the church had a headache, the messenger of the church finally arrived. And it also brings a very exciting news. That is, the Church took out seven million dinars of gold to solve the financial crisis of the alliance of the vassal states.

At the same time, a large number of clergy and priests were sent to areas where there was already turmoil and uprisings. to dispel the influence of those rumors, and at the same time help the local nobles suppress riots and uprisings, and restore stability in the rear.

Moreover. The Inquisition also dispatched a large number of assassins and killers to repay the French.

Therefore, the armies of the vassal states, which were originally depressed, finally began to recover their morale.

And when the long-overdue military salary was distributed to the soldiers, the morale of the soldiers suddenly exploded.

You must know that the support of 7 million dinars is enough for the army to support until the end of the next year.

Since there is no need to worry about military pay for almost two years, how can the soldiers not recover their morale.

Moreover, the emissary of the Church announced to the soldiers that the Church had no intention of looting the population in the rear, which was nothing more than a rumor from the French on the other side.

And it was a cardinal archbishop of the church who announced the news, and the soldiers still believed what a person of such status said.

After all, most of the Europeans in this period were churchgoers, right?

But what the soldiers didn't know was that the church did want to do what was rumored to happen. It's just that when I found out that I hadn't done it yet, it caused a lot of turmoil and trouble, so I changed my mind.

And the death of a cardinal put everyone at the top of the church at risk.

Further, these iron roosters thought that the French would dare to attack them now, let alone after the French had defeated the military forces they supported.

It can be said that under a serious sense of crisis, the top management of the church finally made a more sensible decision. That is, to take out the wealth in his hands, to vigorously support the coalition of the vassal states of the church, and to ensure that this war is not lost no matter what.

In addition, the Church began to send a large number of priests and priests to resolve the crisis and turmoil caused by the rumors, and to help the alliance of vassal states stabilize the situation in their respective countries.

After all, they're all in a relationship of both prosperity and loss now, aren't they?

But anyone who is not an idiot and a fool understands what they should do.

And the intelligence of both the French and the Church was sent to the Imperial Intelligence Department in the Marseille Concession in an endless stream.

At the same time, Jeanne and the others also began to stop, no longer assassinating the French, the church and the allied forces of the vassal states, and after collecting the men and horses under their command, they retreated in a low-key direction in the direction of the Marseille concession.
