The news from the Doge's palace in Marcellus immediately caused an uproar throughout the world. Just when the countries were caught off guard by this news, the Marquis of Whitehead announced that all the Imperial garrisons in Marcellus would be reorganized into the Marcellus Defense Force, and that the Dossan Railway would prevent the Floiminque Empire from transferring troops to Marcellus.

At the same time, the Blue Corps moved into Saroyan to take control of this important city and encircle the Grand Fleet port.

The Marquis of Whitehead's army took control of the railway line that ran east and west of Marcellus, leaving the Imperial Army, who did not know what was happening, not knowing whether to fight the Parliamentarian army or turn back and attack the lifeline that had been choked.

The Parliamentarians had ceased all military operations at this time, and they had not expected the Marquis of Whitehead to make such a decision at this time.

The Governor of Marcellus announced the re-election of the Parliament and was willing to return all power to the Parliament of Marcellus.

Then once a new Council of Marcellus is formed in Saroyan, and the Marquis of Whitehead really hands over power, the basis for the existence of the parliamentary army will be gone, and it will soon fall apart.

Speaker Peters did not believe that Whitehead would really relinquish power, but the morale of the Parliamentarian army was indeed very shocked. So when the Marquis of Whitehead proposed an armistice, the Parliamentarian army soon sent a negotiating team to Saroyan. If the new parliament really gets all the power, then the forces of the old parliament must get enough seats in the new parliament.

As for the recognition of Marcellus as part of the Frominque Empire, it was not a matter at all for the Parliamentary Army. The Marcellus War had been fought for nearly a year, and the Parliamentarians knew very well that they could not win the Empire, and that they were likely to bring in the Eastern states in the end.

spent money, died, and finally made wedding clothes for others. If he beats Marcellus into a poor and white country, and then divides it, it is better to recognize a suzerainty and get real power.

The Imperial side really didn't expect the Marquis of Whitehead to play such a hand. Now, the Desert of Death has been cut off by the Wehrmacht, and all the troops still loyal to the Empire are trapped between the Parliamentarians and the Wehrmacht, and the supplies are still in the hands of the Wehrmacht.

What surprised the Emperor even more was ...... The 1st Division of the Royal Musketeers Cavalry Regiment was also rebelled by the Marquis of Whitehead. Reed Jennings took control of the Emperor's personal army, and together with the Blue Legion, surrounded the land barracks of the Imperial Navy's Grand Fleet.

Across the Desert of Death, the Empire completely lost control of Marcellus. Faced with the Marquis of Whitehead's proposal to establish the Duchy of Marcellus, the Emperor tore the letter to shreds in front of his ministers.

"Duchy of Marcellus...... Whitehead wants to be the Grand Duke of Marcellus! This is the land that the Flomingk ancestors have struck down, and I will not allow it to be thrown out of my hands. Who wants to lead troops to take Marcellus back from the rebels......"

The mighty Emperor was dealt a heavy blow at this moment, and the ministers in the court were silent one by one, letting him know...... I really lost Marcellus this time.

The current empire does not have the strength to be like the empire during the Hundred Years' War, which opened the Death Desert communication line again and again, and the empire is already very weak.

The Prime Minister whispered, "What should we do with the families of the Whitehead family and the rebels?" And also...... Whitehead asked His Majesty to send a negotiator to Saroyan to discuss the armistice of Marcellus and the establishment of the Duchy of Marcellus.

There is information that the rebels of the Old Parliament have sent people to Saroyan, and they are very interested in Whitehead's proposal to create a principality.

Your Majesty...... Whitehead could not have really delegated power, and the Marcellus Socialist Party may have been founded by him. He wanted to control Marcellus by controlling the parliament and hiding behind the scenes. The forces of the old parliament will certainly compete with Whitehead in the new parliament, and as long as we deal with it correctly, it will not be a complete defeat. ”

The Prime Minister carefully reminded the Emperor. The establishment of the Duchy by Marcellus was almost unstoppable, and the Empire was unable to make any effective countermeasures. If you want to prevent Marcellus from becoming an enclave entirely, the Empire should participate in the peace talks and stabilize the remaining influence of the Empire through parliament.

As long as there is still the power of the empire in Marcellus, there is no chance to reclaim this land in the future.

The Emperor, whose anger had gradually dissipated, carefully considered the Prime Minister's suggestion, and since the fight could not continue, he could only adapt to the situation and wait for future changes.

"For the families of the rebels...... Leave the guilt aside. The rest is up to you. Remember, you can't lose the Tossan Railway! ”

Hold the righteousness of Marcellus's freedom and the lifeblood of the empire. The Marquis of Whitehead made a statement that calmed Marcellus, who was in full swing, almost instantly. The Parliamentarian army retreated, and the Imperial army was ordered to be stationed on the spot, and the supplies were supplied by the Wehrmacht, and the amount of supplies was the same as in wartime, except for the weapons.

Both the parliamentary army and the empire sent representatives to Saroyan, and the Marcellus peace talks were just the beginning.

At this time, Speaker Peters, who wanted to know the real purpose behind the Saloyan incident led by the Marquis of Whitehead, quietly entered Saroyan and came to the Elysée Avenue.

He did not go to the Marcellus peace talks, he knew that what he talked about had no meaning, and the people who could really decide the future situation of Marcellus lived in this place.

"Young Master Liang, I have always had the feeling that all of us are a chess piece in your hand." Seeing Da Liang again, Peters no longer has the same vigor as before, and he wants to lead the Marcellus people to independence and become a hero with the highest honors. But the war had only been fought for more than a year, and he realized that he had thought too much about the war. Once a war is fought, it is no longer controlled by the will of the individual. Especially what he's been through during this time, and what he's going through now......

Peters couldn't help but complain, "Now it seems that we are indeed all your pawns. The Marquis of Whitehead dared to establish the Duchy of Marcellus with your backing, and a 'return of power to Parliament' would make us have to come to Saroyan for peace talks, and if we didn't talk about it, the Parliamentary Army would split itself.

You and Whitehead formed the Socialist Party. If I'm not mistaken, the first government of the Principality of Marcellus must have been a Socialist government. By controlling the Socialist Party, you can control Marcellus.

On the imperial side. They can't fight, and with the fig leaf of the suzerain, they can only admit it if they pinch their noses. ”

Da Liang faced Speaker Peters, who looked like a resentful woman, and said with a smile: "Speaker Peters, if you come to me this time, I will have to go to you."

The Socialist Party is still short of a leader, are you interested in taking the position? ”

Speaker Peters was taken aback: "You, you made me the leader of the Socialist Party?" ”
