With one more episode, the inauguration ceremony of the legislators was successfully completed. In addition to the representatives of the Holy See who were very disappointed, as the representatives of various countries who ate melons, their expressions were also a little unnatural.

With the completion of the re-election of the three major countries, the proportion of seats in the alliance has reached nearly 45 percent.

The balance has been broken!

The political landscape that once dominated the Terran Alliance with the Holy See and the Ten Kingdoms will never return.

However, this is just the beginning. With the decline of the Holy See and several other kingdoms, the future Terran alliance will inevitably move towards a giant monopoly.

For most countries, this change is undoubtedly catastrophic. Now that everyone is in a group, they can still rely on the alliance parliament to balance several major powers, and the future may not be known.

After a brief period of "apprehension," the expressions of the delegates of various countries diverged again. A group of representatives of small countries who knew that their struggles were useless simply put it in the air.

What is really entangled is still a few declining kingdoms. The pride of the great powers makes them unable to tolerate lying down, wanting to struggle and not winning the Big Three.

Among them, the only one who stands out is the representative of the Duchy of Moxi, who shows a unique vitality.

As the only small country that has achieved leapfrog development in these years, they have proud capital.

Once the foundation is firmly established, it is almost inevitable that the comprehensive strength will surpass that of some declining old kingdoms.

It is clear to those with a little common sense that even if the country has similar comprehensive national strength, the country in the growth period is much stronger than the country in the decline period.

No matter how deep the background is, as long as the people's hearts are scattered, no matter how hard they try, they will not be able to return to the sky.

The Holy See is the best example of the past, before the outbreak of the anti-French war, it was the top power in the mainland.

As soon as the flames of war were ignited, the tiger skin was punctured in an instant, and it directly became the laughing stock of the mainland.

There are such cases, and the declining kingdoms have a strong sense of distrust of their own strength.

The Three Kingdoms of the Central Continent are slightly better, although they know that they can't do it, at least they have fought with other races, and they have a clear understanding of their own strength.

The three fallen kingdoms of the Southern Continent were tragic, and during the last continental war, they fought once in the whole game.

Of course, it can't be said that there is no participation at all, at least the Kingdom of Ruthenia was beaten by the dwarves.

As for the kingdoms of Oprus and Avarat, it was only a symbolic entry into the war. It's not that they want to fish on their own, but that they don't border other races geographically.

The Franks and Libyans, who wanted to eat alone, did not lend them the word at all. Coupled with the fact that the pace of domestic mobilization was too slow, the continental war came to an end without waiting for preparations for a full-scale war.

The typical "death in peace", if there is really a threat from an alien race, no matter how corrupt their internal is, their military strength will not fall too much.

The wood is already in the boat, and it is too late to regret it. At this moment, they can only hope for the success of the domestic law change, otherwise they can only be echoing worms in the future Terran Alliance meeting.

……

"The re-election of parliamentarians has been a complete success, and now it is on the second agenda to mediate the contradictions between the countries of the Terran race.

In recent days, due to some misunderstandings, an unnecessary war has broken out in the southern continent.

Taking advantage of today's day, using the platform of the alliance, I propose that the warring parties send their own representatives, sit down and negotiate, and end this meaningless battle of wills as soon as possible! ”

After listening to Caesar IV's words, Hudson was no longer able to complain. Sure enough, he was still too embarrassed to reverse black and white in front of everyone.

There was no misunderstanding in the war against France, let alone a so-called battle of will.

If it weren't Charles III who was the emperor, but the monarch of a small country, everyone might just laugh it off.

can trigger a siege in various countries, mainly because the Franks are floating. Charles III not only became emperor, but also clamored to inherit the legal system of the previous human empire.

Hudson was very suspicious that the Franks were talking hi. After all, political slogans have always been shouted loudly.

It's just that some slogans are easy to get up, and many times when you shout and shout, you will find that you can't get down.

There are many people who claim to be the heir to the legal system of the empire, it is nothing more than that Charles III really called the emperor, and the others are just shouting slogans.

If it weren't for the last Terran Empire that ruled the Northern Continent, it was the Bright Empire controlled by the Holy See, and the Alpha royal family would have claimed to have inherited the imperial legal system.

No attention was paid to the details, it was announced at the enthronement ceremony, and it was impossible to take it back.

The outside world agreed that this was an expression of the ambition of the Franks.

At the instigation of the Holy See and the Libyans, the countries of the southern continent for their own interests joined in the great cause of opposing France.

Of course, the Franks were tough enough in this regard, and even in the face of armed intervention from various countries, they still did not compromise to go to the emperor.

The matter is so clear that Caesar IV's deliberate embellishment seems too false.

"Your Majesty, there is no misunderstanding in this war against France initiated by the Alliance!

If it weren't for the ambition of the Franks, who tried to destroy the countries of the continent and unify the human race, we would not have organized a coalition army.

Originally, I wanted to let them know their way back, but unfortunately they not only didn't appreciate it, but also attacked them despicably......"

Bishop Monteson was a true complaint, and Hudson was almost infected when he heard it and wept when he heard it.

There is nothing wrong with it, more than ninety percent of the content of his accusations is true, and less than one percent of the content is private goods.

Unfortunately, no matter how touching it is, it can't change the fact that the Franks defeated the Holy See on the battlefield.

As a result of the war, it was the Holy See that was divided today, not the nascent Frankish Empire.

Even because of the war, the patriotism of the Franks was stimulated, and the morale of the army was all the way high.

Even though the strength of the anti-French alliance was less than one-third, the two sides still fought back and forth on the battlefield and successfully kept the enemy out of the country.

"Your Excellency, watch your words!

The Empire had never intended to unify the continent, something that was simply impossible.

There have been countless similar lessons in history, and all countries that have tried to unify the continent have paid a terrible price for it.

Such a stupid thing cannot be done by normal people except for your Holy See! ”

Count Davis said with a look of disdain.

Hudson, who was eating melons on the side, clearly noticed that as he spoke, he looked at Bishop Monteson as if he were looking at a fool. The contempt between the eyebrows did not restrain in the slightest.

The tone used was even more from the superior to the inferior, as if he wanted to tell the delegates on the scene in this way: they are not at the same level as the Frankish Empire and the Holy See.

The naked insult made Bishop Monteson almost explode on the spot. Falling from the top power, this kind of mental gap is by no means something that can be adapted overnight.

If you change to a representative of a small country and are despised by the representative of a big country, there is a high probability that there will be no waves in your heart.

"Dignity", that belongs to the strong. If the weak want to survive, they must first learn to bow their heads.

It was hard and cool for a while, and the country was ruined afterwards.

At this moment, the Holy See has actually come to the edge of the cliff. Its own comprehensive strength has plummeted, and it has lost its unique position in religion, and its enemies are all over the mainland.

With so many buffs stacked, a proper prelude to demise. Being able to enter the parliament is because the anti-French alliance has a taste for it, and it is embarrassing to attack the allies directly.

Just because countries have a bottom line doesn't mean they can't break through it. Monteson's desire to kidnap the anti-French alliance and put pressure on the Franks together was clearly whimsical.

There is no way, the Franks painted cakes for various countries, which are too tempting.

Desperately defending the Holy See, except for a few words of gratitude on the surface, everyone will get nothing, where is it better to divide the inheritance of the Holy See?

"Now that it's happened, let's not dwell on the past. Instead of engaging in pointless entanglements here, let's discuss how to deal with the aftermath!

Don't forget that we are not the only Terrans on the continent of Aslanth, if everyone keeps making trouble, in the end, it will only be cheap. ”

The persuasion of Caesar IV gave both sides a step. It's just that these words fell into the ears of the deputies of the Holy See, and it was particularly harsh.

Just as he was about to speak, the representative of the Kingdom of Illia, Count Djordevich, on the side, took the lead and said:

"Your Majesty is right, there is really no need to be entangled in the past, but there is always someone in charge of the war.

For the sake of the unity of the human race, we can also put the matter of accountability on the back burner, but some selective issues must be resolved.

First of all, the Franks had to go to the imperial title and promise to renounce the imperial legal system;

secondly, to compensate the alliance for losses caused by the war;

……”

More than a dozen demands were put forward in one go, covering all aspects, and perfectly taking care of the interests of the anti-French alliance.

"Your Excellency's proposal is not sincere. It's all here, and there's no point in talking about those useless excuses.

Now that the empire has been established, it is impossible to go to the emperor. As for the question of legal system, my Frankish Empire has its own system, so why should I inherit someone else's?

Secondly, the division of responsibility for war is also very unfair.

Whoever provokes the war should pay for it. If it weren't for the malicious provocation of some groups, I don't think this war would have happened.

Whoever conspired in private, formed an anti-French alliance, and led the outbreak of this war, will be responsible for compensating everyone for their losses.

……”

Earl Davis's pun answer instantly sparked a discussion among the delegates.

On the surface, the Frankish Empire was very strong, and in fact had made major political concessions.

did not give up the title of emperor, but denied inheriting the imperial legal system. It seems that there is not much difference, but in fact, the principled contradiction between the two sides has now been resolved.

Only the representatives of the Holy See had gloomy and terrible faces. From the sound of discussion in my ears, it is clear that most of the delegates are inclined to compromise.

If the Franks are soft persimmons, then there is nothing to say, everyone must teach them to be human again.

It's just that the current battlefield is in a stalemate, and it is difficult to make a breakthrough without working hard, which requires political means.

The first power of the human race, there are still cards. Forcibly hanging an imperial title, in fact, everyone is not unacceptable.

As for the follow-up compensation and accountability, they are all trivial.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this war was jointly launched by the Holy See and Libya, but at the moment the loser is the Holy See.

According to the proposal of the Franks, the Holy See would take the black cauldron and compensate everyone for their losses.

The loss is a little loss, but before the meeting, the "partition of the papal heritage" is the potential consensus of everyone.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Bishop Monteson hurriedly interrupted: "No!

The war was triggered by Charles III's claim to be emperor, how can it be dumped on the alliance, this is an extremely irresponsible performance.

……”

……

Noisy, noisy, noisy, around the question of the person responsible, for three days in a row, Hudson listened to the scalp numb.

As it turns out, diplomats are indeed not something that ordinary people can do. Hudson was beyond the reach of this quarrel alone.

If it weren't for the fact that the front line was still fighting, and both sides wanted to end the war as soon as possible, Hudson was very suspicious that they would be able to quarrel from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.

However, as time went on, the situation at the meeting gradually became clearer.

The Franks, who should have been caught in the crosshairs of the people, were not besieged by the representatives of various countries, but the delegation of the Holy See was caught in a whirlpool of storms.

According to information sent by the Kingdom's intelligence organization, Hudson learned that the Holy See was selling assets in various places and preparing for a strategic retrenchment.

However, the movement was so great that it attracted the attention of various governments, and they took the lead in raiding their industries.

is so eager, or is it the fault of too many interests. The Holy See has a lot of legacy, and they are not qualified to participate in it, so they can only eat the interests of the country first.

Of course, all this has nothing to do with the Alpha Kingdom. As one of the two heresies on the mainland, the property of the Holy See has long been confiscated by the kingdom.

If you eat the meat, you can't spit it out. All countries need a fig leaf to hide the fact of robbery.

In this context, the Holy See must be guilty and still be guilty of the original sin that cannot be reversed.

It was useless to protest, and the power of hatred made the mediator of the Alpha Kingdom, not only did not come out to uphold justice, but instead followed him to the Holy See.

Even if you don't participate in the distribution of spoils, as long as you can watch the enemy unlucky, it is worth the kingdom's action.

At the same time, it was attacked by enemies, allies, and neutral countries, and even the Holy See delegation with a strong heart was on the verge of spiritual collapse.

Hudson was sure that this state of affairs would not last long, and that the Holy See delegation would surely collapse.

There is no way, the partition of the Holy See has become an established fact. The war continues, but the anti-French coalition has begun to withdraw.

Apparently, in secret, the Libyans and the Franks had come to an agreement. The current quarrel is just a routine procedure.

If it drags on, the situation will only become more and more unfavorable for the Holy See. Without the containment of the anti-French alliance, it is not impossible for the Franks to destroy the Holy See as long as they are willing to pay a certain price.

"Marshal, there's an urgent report from the front!"
