The old king dies and a new king ascends the throne.

In the wake of King Lopez's death and a deep sense of grief still enveloped the country, some careerists could not hold back.

They began to oppose the royal rule under various guises, wanting to dominate one side like Jason and Asa, but unfortunately most of the people who jumped out at this time were brainless people, and they couldn't wait to do it without even preparing in advance.

And those who really harbor evil intentions are still hiding in the shadows and quietly observing, because they keenly feel that things are not so simple.

Sure enough, then these noble vassals who wanted to rebel died in their castles one after another inexplicably, and the rest were also so frightened that they bowed down to Phil and confessed, hoping to save their lives.

Nine days after the king's death and burial, Phil ascended the throne with the support and appeal of Marquis Bode Creon, the fox of the north, and the flag of the kingdom was replaced by a black wolf that roared in the sky.

It is worth mentioning that the queen also committed suicide that night, saying that she was going to accompany King Lopez.

And the Marquis of Bode Creon also got what he wanted, he became the new Chancellor of the Kingdom of Finance, and it was in vain that he took great risks and public pressure to fall to Phil.

As for why he is not a military minister, it is because Phil does not dare to let his power be too terrifying, not only a threat to himself, but also to make those kingdom nobles tremble all day long.

And although the Chancellor of the Exchequer has also grasped the lifeblood of the kingdom, it will not worry Phil compared to the military, and what he has just experienced makes Phil full of distrust of anyone.

On his first day on the throne, Phil declared war on Jason, citing the death of his father and the fact that his son did not attend the funeral and supported the north with the intention of rebellion.

But everyone was dismissive of his reasoning, and it was less than ten days from the king's death to his burial, and ten days might not have had time for Jason to leave his territory.

The person who delivered the letter should not necessarily be able to feel the city of Francis, and it is unknown whether there was a letter or not, in addition, there were many noble vassals who did not come to the funeral, and the Duke of Aesh did not come either?

And just after Phil announced the declaration of war, some ministers stood up against his order.

Standing up was a chubby old man, an earl, the kingdom's merchant minister, who stood up and persuaded: "Your Majesty, the kingdom has just been stable for less than two years, and starting a war again is not conducive to the development of the kingdom." ”

Phil, who was sitting on the Iron Throne, squinted his eyes, and standing next to him was Sandra, but her expression was not very good.

Phil knew the business minister very well, because he did not agree with his ascension to the throne, and even supported Jason in this position.

It's just that he is the confidant of the former king, so Phil has no intention of doing anything to him for the time being, but now it seems that these people are still so dishonest.

So he said in a somewhat indifferent tone: "Then according to your meaning, should I let my brother grow stronger in the north, and when the time is ripe, he will wave his troops south, and finally push the kingdom of Lopez into a catastrophe?"

"Your Majesty, I had absolutely no intention of that. The Minister of Commerce hurriedly waved his hand, he just felt that Phil had used all the kingdom's taxes on the army in the past two years, which had led to stagnation in development, so he stood up to dissuade him from starting a war.

"Earl Nyon, fornicated and rebellious, I now declare that he will be stripped of his title of nobility, confiscated his land, and tortured in a dungeon until he confesses his comrades!" Phil's eyes were bloodthirsty, and he felt that it was time for some people to really see his fangs.

"Your Majesty!" the Earl of Nyne, whose face turned pale, and his lips became bloodless, trembling and falling to his knees and pleading.

But Phil is just looking for someone to stand up, so his fate is already doomed: "Pull it down!"

"No...... No...... You can't do that to me!" Earl Nairn was still wailing and struggling, but how could he, who was so well pampered, be a match for these able-bodied palace guards.

So the two punches fell to the ground and turned into a prawn, and then the two guards grabbed his arms and dragged him out of the gate.

Probably thinking that his survival was hopeless, Earl Nairn immediately went crazy, his eyes were red and he glared at Phil and roared: "Sooner or later, you will have such a day! Sooner or later, you kill your father as king, and you are doomed to no good end! I will wait for you in the death of the River Styx! I curse you!"

This sentence sounded familiar, so Phil waved his hand in annoyance and roared, "Drag him to the execution ground!"

Although they soon couldn't hear Count Nain's voice, everyone muttered in their hearts, is it true that the current King Lopez secretly killed the previous king to sit in this position?

But then a cold war discouraged them from delving into the issue, and they didn't have enough to live.

"Your Majesty, the first king has just passed away, and I am afraid that we will lose the hearts of the people if we use such a large number of troops. With a sigh, Marquis Bode also stepped forward, really not thinking that it would be a good idea to go to war with Jason at this time.

The combat effectiveness of the northern soldiers has been obvious to all in the last war, and they are simply elite soldiers who can fight one against two, and the kingdom of Lopez has experienced several wars in a row and has not been able to recover until now.

The troops consumed by the Federation of the Sixteen Kingdoms in the southern expedition have not been replenished so far, and a part of the army must be left there to suppress the remnants of the Sixteen Kingdoms.

"Don't miss the opportunity, Jason is not in the North right now, not even in the Kingdom of Lopez. Stepping down from his Iron Throne and coming to Marquis Bode's side, Phil said in a low voice.

Suddenly, Marquis Bode's pupils shrank suddenly, and the interface you just said was talking nonsense, and people are no longer in the Lopez Kingdom at all! How can you come to attend your father's funeral?

But Marquis Bode still nodded secretly and said softly, "I understand." ”

Soon, Marquis Bode and the new king of the kingdom of Lopez, whose attitude had changed dramatically that afternoon, defied the crowd and even killed several high-ranking nobles before giving a plan for the northern expedition to Jason to recover the four northern provinces.

In addition to the legions guarding the three border fortresses of the Ryker Province, the Dolan Kingdom, and the Federation of the Sixteen Kingdoms, Phil almost conscripted the entire army, totaling 350,000, claimed to be 500,000, and prepared to start assembling to the north.

Aim to reach their destination within a month, and then start the offensive, at which point the new Phil will personally go to the front line to oversee the battle.
