Chapter 386: The strength is weak, the responsibility is heavy, the spirit is exhausted (eventually), and then exhausted
In the Second War of the Oligarchs, although Kojie IV fought stubbornly with Xiuge and others, he was ultimately defeated and signed the humiliating Peace of Lugro in 1700.
According to the Treaty of Lugro, Maischka was to cede the Southern Plains to Portlou and the old land to Urch, reduce the territory to only the remaining woodlands and vast lands, compensate Potrou and Ulch for some military expenses, prohibit the establishment of customs in trade between the two sides, and retain the autonomy of the oligarchs who had defected to Urch and Urch.
With the signing of the Lugro Peace Treaty, the territory of Maishika was greatly reduced, leaving only two areas, the fragmented woodland and the vast land, and it can be said that if another war broke out and Maishika could only deal with it alone, then defeat would only be a matter of time.
If the signing of the Lugro Peace had been given over the past few hundred years, many careerists would have used it as an excuse to try to overthrow the current ruler for the crime of "unvirtuousness", but this time there was no such incident in Maisica, because the nobles understood that Kojie IV had done his best.
And in the current situation, if Kejie IV is no longer allowed to maintain Maisica, Maishika may end up earlier, and it is difficult to say when he will be able to get out of the post-war quagmire.
Although Kojie IV was not the target of condemnation, he always had to find a scapegoat to condemn when he was defeated, so the oligarchs became the best targets for gathering fire.
As the college began to emerge from the devastation of the post-war period, the academy began to reopen. The students who returned to school were full of anger when they went to school, and all these grievances poured into the oligarchic families, and the students of the oligarchic families who stayed in the academy were the targets of the collective criticism of the alleged scolding of Huai.
The family is no longer an oligarch, or the oligarchic family members who have surrendered to Kejie IV do not have to suffer any crimes, as long as they are indignant with their classmates, and by the way, they will be considered to have passed. After all, Kejie IV said that now everything is in ruins, everyone should unite and not turn over old accounts.
However, the students of the oligarchic family who lured the wolf into the house during the war, and now still take refuge in Portlou and Ulch, are not so easy to pass, from the students to the mentors, and even the helpers who paid to come in, they can despise the people of these traitors.
In 1701, there was even a big incident, a group of students beat up the oligarchs, and Ulch actually intervened, sending envoys to ask Potlou to give an explanation.
What can Kojie IV explain? Although there is a peace treaty between Ulchi and Potlou, that peace treaty is an unequal treaty, what if it angers Ulch, and Ulch sends some volunteers to help the oligarchs "administer justice"?
This is not an ordinary dispute, if it is a dispute with Ulch, Maishika can also use the power of Potloo to suppress it, but when it comes to oligarchs, Potloo will not only not help Misica, but will stand on the same side as Uska, don't forget that Potloo also supports several oligarchs.
As a result, Ulch's envoys quarreled for several weeks, and Kejie IV was at a stalemate, so he could only detain the students who beat people for intentional injury, and there was an uproar in Maishika after the news broke.
And the student who was beaten also knew that it was not interesting to stay like this, so he took the initiative to drop out of school, and he led the trend.
This is really humiliating enough, since the collapse of Bourbon, Maisica has not experienced this feeling for hundreds of years, and the evil neighbor who launched the punishment at the slightest disadvantage has reappeared.
Under these circumstances, the hatred of the oligarchs grew, and the call for an end to the era of the Governorship and the restoration of the monarchy became stronger.
Recently, the main focus of Kojie IV has indeed been here, and the restoration of the royal government and the restoration of the Delian dynasty is a sure thing, it is just how to act.
In the past 30 years, the forest has always been the main battlefield of the struggle for hegemony in the Maisica, whether it is the old land in the south or the southern plain in the west, if you want to compete for the governorship, you have to kill the forest land, and in the end, the vast land in the east has also come to mix with a kick, at this time the forest land has been full of devastation, a ruin.
Moreover, with the loss of the old land and the Southern Plains, as well as those oligarchs who took refuge in foreign countries, the woodlands are no longer the heartland of Maisica, but directly face the front of the Portelough army, and now the Portlou only needs to march for a week to kill Lugro, so moving the capital here is also an inevitable result.
Emperor Kojie IV was preparing to move the capital from Lugro to Sarasi in the Vast Lands, and it had previously been said that Sarasi was the most important transportation zone in the Vast Lands, and belonged to the battleground of soldiers, and if he controlled Sarasi, he could control the Vast Land. Moreover, the Frank fortress west of Sarasi is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so you can take advantage of this natural danger to defend against it.
However, it is not so easy to relocate the capital, in addition to the necessary material preparations, it is necessary to convince the nobles under his command.
You must know that the place where the Maisica people rose was the Old Land, which also had the first capital of Maisica, Hash, where the "Navigator" Lul returned to Bourbon more than a thousand years ago to meet the Barbarian King of Maisica.
When Maiska destroyed the hundred-year-old blood feud of Myrami and was proud, he moved the capital from Hash in the old land to Tyr in the plains, and as the plains became the southern plains, in order to stay away from the border, the capital was also moved from Tilshu in the southern plains to Lugro in the woods, and now it is actually moving to Surassi in the vast land.
Thinking of this, King Kejie IV sighed and said to the historians beside him: "The relocation of the capital in the past thousand years is really a microcosm of his history. ”
In 1704, Emperor Kojie IV finally completed all the preparations and officially moved the capital from Lugro to Sarasi, with Sarassi as the new center of gravity of Maisica's rule.
After moving to Sarasi, after the persuasion of the ministers represented by Xiuge, Kejie IV ended his term of governorship and was re-crowned as King Maisica, so that Maishika ended only 37 years of governorship, and Kejie IV also re-ascended the throne after 37 years, when he was 84 years old.
The 37-year Governorship of Maisika brought only endless suffering to the country, and the 37-year Governorship had a total of 18 governors, and the first Governor Dama IV reigned for 6 years, and the last Governor Kojie IV reigned for 17 years, which means that the other 16 governors together reigned for a pitiful 14 years.
When Kojie IV moved the capital to Sarasi, as if to celebrate the housewarming of Kojie IV, Kojie IV immediately received a pleasant news.
Although this news did not bring much benefit to Kojie IV, this news meant that Portelou was defeated, and Cojie IV was very happy to make Portlou deflated.
To the desolation of Portlough and the delight of Kojie IV, the 20-year war of Willis from 1684 to 1704 ended this year, and Bourbon once again ceded the land and paid reparations.
"This war is of considerable importance, as it can be regarded as the defeat of the spirit of Bourbon," in a casual conversation with Kojie IV, Xiuge mentioned the war of Willis.
"In the past, Bourbon always said that the reason why they lost the war was because their ancestors had selflessly given a lot of help to the North and South Passages and the Tenglong Colonial Guard, so they failed; ”
Kejie IV nodded and said: "Yes, even the Naira has been cut away, and now the territory of Bourbon is only a small piece of the former East Peninsula, which only occupies one-third of the central area of the old waterway in the heyday of Bourbon. ”
Hearing what happened to Bourbon and thinking of Maisica, Xiuge sighed with affection: "Alas, such a powerful empire has only such a pitiful small piece of land left until now, and I think that it will not be long before Bourbon will officially become the dust of history, and can only live in the memories and books of future generations like Myrami and Ingena." ”
"No," retorted Kogge IV, "Bourbon has weakened to such an extent that Boris will begin to support Bourbon for the sake of balance of power, so that Bourbon will not perish." ”
"That's right, the filthy methods of imperialism provoked the war, and now they are the ones who are balancing," Xiu Ge nodded in agreement.
In fact, the war is not all Boris's pot, at least Bourbon provocation first.
At the beginning, in order to set up the balance of power on Bourbon Island, Boris also took a lot of effort, and it was quite effective, forcing Bokang, Polly and Bourbon not to dare to go to war with each other for many years, but the emergence of the Laventica trade made the balance of power on Bourbon Island begin to be broken.
Because Polly, who began to harden the trade pole of Laventica, tried to attack Bourbon, not referring to military annexation, but to turn Bourbon into his own puppet state, and Bourbon strongly opposed Polly's action, so the two countries had a lot of contradictions.
Since he had hated Polly, he couldn't trust Boris, and he had a feud with Pokang, and South Boutu was useless, Bourbon looked around and found that the only Polish country he could rely on was Portoux, so with the 1677 "Portloux and Bourbon Friendly Trade Agreement", the two countries began to approach rapidly.
And Bourbon is close to Portlou, which completely provokes Bourris, because of the "Erpos Ban", Boris cannot carry out a landing operation on Portlou, and once Portloux can borrow Bourbon's port to land on Bourbon Island, it will be a nightmare for Boris, so Bourbon has violated Borris's bottom line, and Boris must punish Bourbon.
At this time, Pokang became the best thug, and Surifer and Dom seized this once-in-a-lifetime strategic environment and took the initiative to declare war on Bourbon.
When Bourbon was declared war, he was furious, thinking that I could not defeat the foreigners in the North and South Passages, and that I could not defeat you, a small state in the north?
In the face of Bourbon's request for help, Polly said that you were not very hangy when you rejected me? Boris said that I will send eighty warriors to support you, and Portlou was very willing to come, but Boris put the fleet across the sea of Bourbon Island, saying that the board could not go to sea, and Portlou, who thought that it was not time for a decisive battle, chose to shrink.
After going around, Bourbon found that he still had to face Pokang by himself, and after more than 300 years, now Bourbon can't fight Pokang on his own, and the combat power of the two countries is completely reversed!
Of course, Bokang still had some difficulty with Bourbon, and it took 20 years to win, but after all, it was won, and the fiasco of this war marked that Bourbon had officially become a small victim of the three seas, and anyone who went could step on it.
Turning his gaze back to Maisica, after doing so many things and going through so many twists and turns, Kojie IV ended his life in 1706 at the age of 86, and Xiuge also died five years later, ending the third struggle of the two in the Maisica's camp.
Although they have exhausted all means, they are not able to turn the tide after all, just like the former Felison XIV, they are tired of their responsibilities for a long time, and they will not be able to support them if they are exhausted.
"On the couch, the king's breath is gradually fading, and he is still not weak, as if he was out of the capital forty years ago, and the color of the vow to return is also strong. Yu Qisun said: "Our country is in danger! I don't want the dead of Myramie, you need to be in harmony, you can't go back to the same room, and you can get a glimmer of life if you are united." ’”
After saying this, the king was depressed, and after a while, he felt that he was very angry. Wang Yan was very quiet: 'A certain knowledge is a return to the light, so there is not much to say. I have done all the things in my life, and I am glad that the little things may be flawed, but they are not in the way of the affairs of the state, and I hope that when you die, you will be as I am, and I will be very gratified. ’”
After that, the king died at the age of eighty-six, and among the kings of ancient and modern times, he was the king of longevity. He served two terms as his king in his life, one for six years, two for two years, a total of eight years, one governor for seventeen years, and the creation of a new Delian dynasty was a pioneer who had the merit of opening up, turning the tide of the tide, and making great contributions, and it was difficult to express the book. ”

"The Ross family was born in 1711 at the age of 91, and is the longest-lived person in the world. Although Xiu Ge was born in a rebellious clan, he was loyal, and he could see who could save Misica, which was very wise, and he would win in the traitor party, and he would be a handsome man. ”
"And he has made countless contributions in his life, and he has yet to supervise the country of Maisica, which can be said to be Maishika also erecting the purple and golden beam of the sea, and he is not as good as the reformer of Kejie IV, as for the Maishika people in the time, the reform is only under Yakejie IV. ”

In 1722, Ulch provoked the "Maischka War" on the pretext of supporting the oligarchs, which lasted until 1742 for a total of 20 years, and the result of the war was that Maishika completely became a vassal of Potterloo and lost all its territory except for the vast lands.
