Chapter 567: Ultraman in the Human World (19) Allies, Enemies, Allies
As the most powerful ruler in the mountains, Su Weili was looking anxiously at the north, he did not know what kind of news he could get from the north, and he complained to his cronies on the side of the pan after pacing: "In any case, it is too risky for Swilson to negotiate in person, as the minister of the palace. ”
The cronies on the side also nodded in agreement, only after Sverson left, they understood how the mountains had developed in the past few years, and now Sverson was the only one who could unify the mountains, and the governance of the mountains was almost paralyzed after he left.
In addition, the urging of the south is getting tighter and tighter, and Sverson has explained before leaving that he will not reach any substantive agreement with the south until an agreement is reached with the north, so he can only use various languages to delay the time to officially reply to the south, but even if this group of delays, it is almost impossible to delay, so he desperately hopes that Sverson will return soon.
Just as he was about to complain again, the guard of the watchtower ruled in a surprised voice: "Report to your lordship, the Sverson Palace Minister has come out of La Divo, and he is back!"
"That's great," thought everyone present, even though he was the nominal ruler of the mountains, he didn't know how to rule the mountains, and he was tired of doing these things of management, and Sverson was the only one who could serve the people, and now that he had finally returned, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
After a quarter of an hour, Sverson finally left the outskirts of La Divo and arrived at the place where the others were, he clenched his fists and bowed, and said: "Report to your lordship, Sverson has fulfilled his mission and has reached an agreement with Berengarh IV, and before the end of this war, we will have no worries in the north, so we can firmly reject the south!"
"That's great," said those present, who repeated the phrase, and another of the cronies asked, "what is the specific agreement with the North?"
Swelson's visit dates back to a few months ago, and the reason why he wants to visit goes back to the war situation one year ago.
The danger of the War of the Succession to the Throne of Isavaloe had already been planted in 1841, and two years later the invasion of Archduke Berengar IV of Ravenc brought the conflict to light, and the declaration of war by Sabe in 1844 led to the official outbreak of war.
After the outbreak of the war, although Sabe claimed to recapture the free land in the mountains, Sabe's main battlefield was on the Novgot plain, and the free land in the mountains was only handed over to the Duchy of Ivan under Sabe's jurisdiction, so as to prevent the other party from freely breaking into Sabe from the mountains and cutting off the connection between the Duchy of Ivan and Sabe.
Archduke Irfi VI obeyed the order and quickly sent troops, and in the case of the Archduke of Savan surrendered without a fight, it took less than 1 year for the Duchy of Evon to occupy Habaro and Tuvak in the south of the Duchy of Savani, ensuring the connection with Sabe, so it was the turn of Berengar IV to worry that Sabe would freely break into La divo from the mountains, and then cut off the connection between the Duchy of Ravenc and Isafanlo.
After conquering the south, Nerfi VI was visibly afraid of the mountains that led to the fall of the 3rd Grand Duke of Savan and the 2nd King Isavannaro, so despite the priests in the ranks repeatedly urging Nalfi VI to attack quickly, despite repeated urgings from the priests in the ranks to say that the mountain people were scum and told Nalfi VI to attack quickly, Nerfi VI always struggled.
It is for this reason that Nerfi VI did not directly lead the army to attack, but sent envoys to issue an ultimatum and order to the mountain people, asking them to open the passage of the mountains, provide food for their own advance, and not attack Yunyun and a series of conditions.
It was in this situation that Sverson keenly saw the opportunity, so Swelson took Nerfi VI's request to the mountain people as a bargaining chip to choose sides, and personally sent an envoy to Ladivo on behalf of the forces of the Rich, requesting to meet with Berengar IV.
However, Sverson's concerns were a little unnecessary, and Berengarh IV was worthy of being a great man of the day, and he welcomed Sverson's visit and reached the "Chewan Agreement" with Sverson.
Berengar IV was willing to not attack each other with the mountain people under the witness of the gods, and agreed to the mountain people's right to rule the Duchy of Safan, while the mountain people were not allowed to attack the territory of Berengar IV, and they also had to go south to resist and drive out the forces of the Duchy of Ivon.
"Just went south?" Many of the mountain leaders were still full of distrust of the outsiders, "what if the other party breaches the contract again? The outsiders are the most cunning and extremely untrustworthy. ”
"No, at least Belengar IV won't default," replied Sverson confidently, "because Berengar IV is not the rightful ruler of Isavallo, and he is under much greater pressure than the House of Savani, so he has no time to control us." ”
However, some mountain people were dissatisfied with this: "But isn't it good for us to stay in the mountains? Why do we want to go out of the mountains and go south to fight them and shed blood for the people outside the mountains?"
"Because if we don't control those two passes, then the mountains will always be a place where people from outside the mountains can come and go when they want, and only by controlling the two passes can we at least have time to evacuate the reserves of the flat land to the mountains, which is the meaning of going south!"
Some of the sharp-minded mountain leaders heard Sverson's answer, and their hearts jumped, because the two passes that Swelson said were crucial to the mountain people, namely Habaro, which was controlled by the Duchy of Ravenc, and Radivo, which was controlled by Berengarh IV, so what Swelson meant was that sooner or later he would have to fight with Isafannelo and recapture Radivo?
Regardless of the careful thinking of the mountain people, with the agreement between the Riches and Berengarh IV, the Riches finally replied in the affirmative to the order of Archduke Nerfi VI of Even: "Get out", and then in 1845 he led his army out of the mountains and went south to fight the Duchy of Even.
When he did not hesitate to refuse his "appeasement" after hearing that he had been beaten down (in Nerfi VI's view, these conditions were the greatest appeasement to the mob), coupled with the demagogic instigation of the priest of the swamp on the side, Nerfi VI decided to take the lead and throw all his troops into the battlefield against the Fried.
Of course, Nerfi VI still has his own careful thinking about doing this, after all, no matter how you look at it, you are much easier to bully than Isafan Lo, so if you go to crusade against you, you don't need to send too many troops to support Sabe, and throw the army into the terrible Novgo Plains.
After the war, the people only fought a few field battles, and then withdrew the people and the army into the mountains, resumed their old ways, and fought guerrillas in the mountains with the other side.
At this time, he was already 45 years old, and he began to fight guerrilla warfare with people outside the mountains at the age of 21, and he had long been experienced in fighting for more than 20 years.
However, compared to Isafannelo, Isavalo's army has also fought with the Yak for more than 20 years, although it has never been wiped out, but there is some experience, and the Duchy of Ivon, which belongs to Sabe, is a complete blank slate in terms of guerrilla in the mountains, and after the initial victory, it soon fell into deep despair and irritation.
More desperate and irritable than the army of the Principality of Ivan were not the mountain people led by the Principality, or even the immigrants who had only been here for more than ten years, but the inhabitants of Tuvak and Habaro, from the upper nobles to the lower commoners, who were all suffering from the heavy burden of labor, and the nobles were going bankrupt!
Perhaps in this gloomy cloud, the only one who lives freely is the heartless Robutu II, as a banner of the Duchy of Savoi, or the kind of waste wood that has no power, Grand Duke Nerfi VI of Evan waved his pen and provided a lot of material for Robutu II's enjoyment.
The nobles of Habaro once tried to resist alone, but due to the lack of organization, they were quickly pacified, and the nobles of Habaro also tried to contact Robutu II to resist, but Robuto II betrayed them, and Nerfi VI led his army into the city to kill them.
In desperation, some nobles hoped that the king's army (Isavannaro's army) would soon regain the area, while others began to pin their hopes on the mountain people.
"Pin your hopes on the mob, your head isn't broken, is it?" When they heard the idea of such a "thunder man", several nobles couldn't help but scold.
But the nobleman who made this suggestion had his own reasons: "Do you remember what kind of good life our fathers lived? Although we belong to the free land in the mountains, we have our own main city, and the king will only collect taxes from us on Weibo, and this is our world!"
"But since the Free Land War in the Mountains twenty years ago, Isavanna Loh has taken control of this place, reorganized it into the Duchy of Savani, trying to make this place the same as the outside world, rather than a city with a high degree of autonomy, and even we, the nobles of Habaro, have also become vassals of the nobles of the outside world!"
"Then some people say that this is all the tyranny of Isavanlo, so when Nerfi VI led the army to the north, we surrendered without a fight and returned to the rule of Sabe, but did Sabe restore our old good times? No! Not to mention the abolition of the Duchy of Savani, even the Grand Duke of Savani was retained by them, what do they want to do? Isn't it just to continue to recognize the division of the Duchy of Savani after the war!"
"What does that mean? It means that we can't go back to the good old days in this war, whether it's Isavallo or Sabe, so why should we support them?"
"That's why you're supporting the mob?" said several nobles, dissatisfied.
"Ahem, they are not mobs," said the nobleman, blushing and heartless, "the mob can be received by Lord Berengar IV, and can they enter into an agreement with Lord Berengar IV, so it seems to me that they are the descendants of the ruined nobles, and we should let them return to the ranks of the nobility." ”
"And the ancestors of the mountain people basically ran over from the neighborhood, so if you gather the scholars in the city, you will definitely be able to find out which noble descendants they are!"
The nobles present were shocked by this person's shamelessness, the so-called convening of scholars to study Yunyun, but just to compile a set of noble bloodlines for the mountain people?
"So what will happen after doing this? Although the mountain people are nobles, they are already broken nobles, so their rule should be limited to the mountains, we are responsible for locking the pass to the mountains from the outside, and they are responsible for helping us to defend ourselves, so that we can go back to the good old days!
Hey, hearing him say this, it seems that it is not completely unacceptable to let that group of mountain people be the rulers of the free land in the mountains, so the proposal to compile and study a set of noble blood for the others has slowly gained a lot of supporters among the nobles.
