Chapter 49: The Imperial Capital's Reaction

The imperial capital, even if the country is in the midst of internal and external troubles, it is still a song and dance.

His Majesty Louis III, less than a week after ordering the military headquarters to immediately coordinate armaments and dispatch the disappointments of the legions in various places, announced the marriage of Her Royal Highness Christina, the princess of the Principality of Andorra and the youngest daughter of the Grand Duke of Brown. However, on the third day after the wedding, His Majesty Louis III turned his attention to the independent city-state of Gambia, Count Soro, who visited the imperial capital, Lady Irinasa.

Or, rather, His Majesty Louis III's attention was not only on Madame Elinasa, but also on the broad spirit of fraternity, and his hobbies were more interested in super-friendship with those beautiful and mature noblewomen. In his usual parties with his close friends, he often boasted to the nobles around him that he had slept with the lady again.

If it weren't for the identity, I'm afraid that His Majesty Louis's beauty hunting list would have the name of a certain civilian beauty on the list.

Of course, everyone is familiar with all this, and even many nobles pray day and night for the omnipotent gods to let His Majesty take a fancy to his wife and concubine and lover, and then as a matter of course, *** and something like that will happen, which will also bring great benefits to themselves.

Wearing a green hat given by His Majesty is simply a supreme honor for these people. Of course, those noble ladies and beauties often show themselves coquettishly in front of Louis III, seducing this lord whose life's goal is to overthrow the world's glamorous mature women.

Except for a few important ministers of the empire, such as the Inspectorate, the Construction Officer, the State Officer, and the Accounting Officer and the Protector, the entire imperial capital was immersed in a rich atmosphere of obscenity and luxury.

Due to the blockade of unfavorable news from the front of the military department, the citizens of the imperial capital still knew nothing about the outside world, only subconsciously knowing that the bastards who invaded the land would still be beaten and fled by the warriors of the empire as before, and finally signed the brand of shame - a huge war reparation.

As citizens of the Imperial Capital, they have the right and experience to believe that they can receive war reparations from the Empire in the coming days from those fools. History repeats itself, so why not have fun?

The important ministers looked at the south anxiously every day, and sometimes when they were in a very low mood, they would yell at the south: "Damn Tony, doesn't he know how anxious we are waiting in the imperial capital? ”

On this day, while the procurator and the tribune from the civilian class were discussing and analyzing the battle ahead in a room of the palace, the state attaché kicked the guards at the door, waving a thick stack of paperwork in his hand and rushing in, shouting: "Damn, damn, damn ......"

The state officer shouted three damn ones in a row, and you can imagine how angry he is now.

"What's going on, Robert?" the Ombudsman asked, his tone filled with uncertainty and panic.

"Yes, what happened to Your Excellency?" asked the tribune.

"Damn, what else could make me so angry right now? The principality of Somalia, Kyrgyzstan, Turkey, the city-state of Milan, and so on have rejected our demands and refused to send troops. Damn, you two are still asking what's going on?" the state officer was clearly furious right now.

"Ah, how is that possible?" said the tribune, in astonishment.

"Oh, damn it, they don't dare to go against the will of the Lord of Light and say what bullshit is to live in peace. Even if His Majesty proposes to let them move the legions on the border with us, so that the Empire of Light and the Slovenians feel the slightest pressure, they will not be able to. Oh my God, how could our empire have such a group of allies, I'm ashamed of that!" the state officer slammed the stack of papers in his hand onto the table.

"Oh my God, this is the worst news I've ever heard!" said the Ombudsman, covering his face with his hands.

"Damn, how can they do this!" the tribune was also angry, and slammed his fist on the hard mahogany table, and with a snap, a shallow fist mark appeared on the mahogany table.

After taking a few hard breaths of the air in the room, the state officer exclaimed, "What's more, these bastards have actually made all kinds of absurd demands on us, what food, weapons, chaos crystals...... Oops, anyway, they brought it up as much as they could think of, and it was just blackmail. ”

"Damn, these greedy jackals dare to make these unreasonable demands on our Aragon Empire. More than a dozen accounting officers subconsciously covered the parchment rolls on their hands and scolded through gritted teeth.

"According to the envoys who have returned one after another, they have not been received in their diplomacy by the kings, or by the Grand Dukes, or by the lords of the city, but only by the representatives of the Senate or the Parliament, who have come out to meet and make these absurd and unreasonable demands......" The State Officer's face was extremely gloomy, and his teeth could almost be heard gritting between his words.

"In this way, the diplomacy of the Holy See and the Empire of Light is ahead of us. The Ombudsman was worried.

"We have to go to war with the Empire of Light and the Slovenian Empire at the same time, and we also have to face the intervention of the Holy See at any time, this time is the most serious crisis faced by the three dynasties since the founding of our empire. The tribune said with a worried face.

"You're right, Your Excellency. In the past, even during the change of dynasty or the war with the Bright Empire, our empire did not intervene in the Holy See, but this time our biggest enemy is the Holy See. Also, be wary of the wall-to-wall grass, who are likely to jump in when the situation is clear and not in our favor. The state officer analyzed.

Suddenly there was another roar outside the door: "Damn it, bastards, bastards!

Soon the figure of the security officer appeared in front of everyone.

"Your Excellency ............"

The security officer's performance caused a cold sweat to break out in the room for the Imperial Pillars.

"Bastards, bastards! You should know that there are many bastards in our lives, and now, there is one of the best bastards who is actually threatening our esteemed majesty. Oh, Lord, forgive me, maybe one day I'll go mad and run to that bastard's apartment and tear him to shreds!" the guard shouted angrily.

It turned out that the Burundian Empire had sent emissaries to the Imperial Capital with the Imperial Emissaries and conveyed their Majesty's wishes. As the closest comrades-in-arms of the Aragones, the orc brothers are willing to send troops to the aid of their allies, but hope that the venerable and powerful Louis III will be able to fund a little war material before the orcs can take a step.

In addition, in recent years, the orcs in the cold region have not harvested well, and I also hope that the brothers of Aragon will see the intimacy of their comrades-in-arms and brothers, and fund a batch of rations that can meet the needs of one million orc troops for a year.

In return, the Burundian Empire will send 300,000 elite troops to the southern part of the Aragon Empire, and they are willing to present the head of the Marshal of the Empire of Light to His Majesty Louis III as the most sincere gift to the orc brothers.

"Damn, don't need you, I'll go over and tear those filthy and rude orcs to shreds right now. With that, the state officer walked outside in a rage.

"Calm down, calm down!, gentlemen!" the Ombudsman raised his voice sharply, and motioned for the guards at the door to stop the State Officer.

"Perhaps we can ask Your Majesty to arrange a marriage for the princes and princesses......" the Ombudsman's brow furrowed.

"What do you mean?"

"Married to other countries?"

The Ombudsman nodded slightly.

"Not now, Your Excellency Balkin. Not to mention that the southeast of the Slovenian blockade can't get by, other powerful countries have been bought by those bastards of the Bright Empire, and many of them are even married. The state minister said heavily.

"Ah, how do we not know, damn it, those inquire-gathering pails are busy with buying mess all day long. Oh, Robert, my friend, please forgive me for my gaffes. Ombudsman Barkin apologized.

The state minister returned the favor with an aristocratic smile, indicating that he did not mind.

"What a bad day, maybe you should teach your intelligence wrecks a good lesson. Perhaps they should be able to reduce their activity funds severely, or greet their families, and perhaps their enthusiasm for work will be significantly improved. Old man Barkin said hatefully.

"Agreed! Forrens, perhaps you should listen to Lord Barkin's opinion. The state minister bowed.

Half a month later, under the full speed of the huge war machine of the military headquarters, external contradictions quickly replaced internal contradictions. In response to the mobilization order of the imperial capital, the freedmen leaders of the city-states across the country rebelled and resisted the central government, and cooperated with the three major armies to quickly support the two lines of fire in the southeast and southwest.

After all, while the people of Aragon are still martial, they also value glory and loyalty, if it weren't for the emperor's incompetence and the tyrannical conquest of lords everywhere, how could these people have been unable to bear to embark on this road of no return?

After receiving the news of the military headquarters and the rush of aid from all over the country, Tony, the commander of the Silver Fox Legion, was even more determined, and with the unity of the city, he actually defended the Oak Fort so impregnable that the water could not be splashed.

In desperation, the Slovenians also stopped in front of Oak Fort for the time being, but the secret offensive had been quickly deployed. In the days to come, Fort Oak will face even more frantic attacks from the invaders.

At the same time, Grech and his party, who were about to return to Narnia to meet the investigation team, suddenly received news from the south, and were ordered to immediately recruit some of the troops left behind by the legion in various places along the way and rush to Aquitania Province for reinforcements.
