Once the fortress of Agincourt was lost, the kingdom of Capetian was no longer in danger.

On the 22nd day of the month of the month of the 1425th A.D., Edward, the crown prince of Caledonia, led his army through the vast plains and marched under the city of Pali, and the next day, the Duke of Boulogne, whose only son became a captive of the Capetian royal family, also broke the agreement with the king, and went straight to the city of Pali, joining forces with the Galedonians.

In the battle, the Galledonian Army had 27,500 infantry, 15,000 cavalry, a total of more than 40,000, and two Andreno cannons and 32 three-pounder cannons, while Capet only had 30,000 defenders left, and morale had fallen to a low point, and the garrison artillery only had 15 old-fashioned six-pounder bronze cannons, plus a nine-pounder cannon left by Sinampe.

Although the gap in strength on paper is not large, all those who have a heart have a hunch that Capet is in danger.

The mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, which is the case. When the king returned to Pali with his broken army, the atmosphere in Pali became even more oppressive, and the careerists who had hidden in the shadows began to come to the fore in the open, hurrying to carry out plans that would allow them to go further to the top of the pyramid.

Although the Corrion family has always pursued a policy of restricting the local nobility, many are confident that they will not do anything in order to win the support of the Capetian nobles.

Surrendering the city and defecting to the battle, they were always thinking about a plan that could make them prosperous and wealthy without incurring danger. At the Battle of Agincourt, the Capetian nobles suffered heavy casualties, and many wealthy territories became borderlands, all staring at them, eager to get a piece of the pie.

But the king would not tolerate someone snatching food from his own bowl. The enemy is outside the city, but the king is secretly purging the nobles who disagree with him inside the city, and it must be said that he is also a bold lord - of course, the reason why the adjective is secretly is because on the surface the king arrests some nobles who have indeed committed serious mistakes in the war. He also didn't want someone to defect to the enemy at such a fatal moment.

Now that they are in the city of Pali, most of their servants are scattered, and they have no strength around them, this is a perfect opportunity, and if they miss this village, there will be no such shop.

Before the combined forces of Caledonia and Boulogne began to attack the city, the city was the first to be bloody.

But the king was not stupid, and he had perfected his twenty years of rule, and when the nobles who had distinguished themselves in the war went out to capture their former colleagues, they themselves were rewarded accordingly - of course, the lion's share was taken by the king.

In the days since he returned to Pali, the crown prince Huge, who had not yet recovered from his injuries, and his father had numerous fights because of disagreements.

And in the days when the enemy soldiers were in the city, the father and son quarreled again in the study—or rather, the son was arguing, and the father was listening quietly.

One arm was already bandaged, but Hugg slammed the king's desk with the other: "Father, you will make people lose hearts like this!"

"No, I'm doing this to unite people, and no one can't help but applaud except the fools who have been put to death. At the Battle of Agincourt, the 60,000-strong Capetian army was defeated by the 20,000-strong Caledonian army, who do you think will bear this fault? As a king, you must seize every opportunity to gather power in your own hands. ”

"But we need the strength to defend the city!" Hugue's brows tightened, "my father! If you really want to go your own way, the Varloa family will be doomed! ”

"Agincourt Fortress can be held according to common sense, as long as it is held, there is no ...... in selling them"

"But what happened? It turned out to be broken by the Caledonians, father!

“...... Kids, you should take a long-term view. If we defeat the Caledonians, and the nobles are still as strong as ever, then we will face a network of nobles. ”

"But what's the use of taking a long-term view in such a situation!" Huge roared angrily, "If Pali is lost, we will all be finished!"

Staring at his son for a long time, the king shook his head gently: "It seems that you still need to experience. If we lose the city of Pali, we're really all done? Not really, don't forget, we still have little Theresa's Auvergne to live in. As long as we clear the Caledonian stronghold on the southern coastline, we can still rely on the resources of the south to retrieve what we have lost. ”

“...... Have one's head in the clouds. Huge finally showed his disdain on his face.

"Then I would like to ask you, if the Caledonians occupy this place, will they be able to make effective use of its resources? Will he stand up? and, do you think the Duke of Boulogne would be willing?" the king asked.

Yu Ge just wanted to answer, but was silent again.

Theresa listened to the father and son's argument outside, and couldn't help but sob softly. She suddenly missed Qi Nanpei, and thought of the extreme.

"Si, if you're here, you'll be able to show me the way...... Who can sue me, things have come to this point, what should I do?"

She whispered softly, but was heard by an uninvited guest.

"Oh, my sweet little beauty, are you confused again? Angus, dressed in a red robe, staggered over to Theresa, "Marry me, and take your territory as a dowry by the way, and then I can lead my servants and your knights to beat down that boy named Edward in Caledonia." I can promise you that I can beat him so much that he doesn't even recognize his mother!"

"Oh, the world is so wonderful, and I'm so grumpy, it's so bad!, God, why do you plant the seeds of tyranny in me?" Angus looked up, looking distressed.

"Neurotic, why are you here?!" Theresa gritted her teeth and kicked Angus in the lower abdomen.
