Chapter 137 Reluctantly

William smiled and said nothing, looking at Victoria with the same very pleasant gaze. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info It was his appearance of not admitting or denying that made Victoria feel cold all over her body-

Yes, yes, that's it - Wilhelm von Hereford didn't need to promise her anything, she didn't need her permission at all in matters of the Ostrogothic Empire - it didn't matter if Victoria didn't agree, if Victoria didn't agree, he really wouldn't send troops to fight? What are you kidding?

Victoria then thought about it and calculated it, and finally came to a rather bad conclusion, that is, if William did send an army to attack, the result would probably be quite miserable - the vast majority of the Ostrogothic Empire was frightened by the evil revolutionaries. They really, really need an emperor to protect them now. Even if this emperor is not yet thirty years old, even if this emperor also does not have a very good attitude towards the nobility-

But so what?

Compared to those mad revolutionaries who wiped out their families without saying a word, Wilhelm von Hereford was as pure as a little white flower. This kind of pleasant thing is simply a pie-in-the-sky good thing.

Presumably, even the Austrian and Carpathian kings, the careerists of the Habsburgs, would not refuse this.

Victoria's eyes widened, dumbfounded, and she looked at William with a look of surprise. The other people around looked inexplicable, and they didn't know why Victoria had become like this all of a sudden.

However, after that, the group calculated a little, and instantly understood what Victoria was frightened about.

Just as Victoria had thought before, the guys from the small Ostrogothic states instantly showed surprise, surprise, pleasure, and even flattery. They figured it out, too. If Wilhelm really declared himself Ostrogothic emperor, then there would be only benefits for them, and no harm in them. At least in the current situation.

Although a harsh emperor is something that no prince wants to see, on the other hand, those madmen who will wipe out their families and hang all the nobles are even more frightening.

The lesser of two evils. Sure enough, it was better to choose the emperor - as for Victoria, as for the kingdom of Briton or something.

What the hell is it now, who cares to get those scum - they themselves have been beaten by those crazy revolutionaries and can't find the north. They simply don't have the strength to defend themselves.

There is no need for the boss who has no strength to protect himself. There is no boss who can punish his own strength, and there is no deterrent at all.

That's the way it is, Victoria almost broke out in a cold sweat.

If William really integrated the entire Ostrogothic Empire, then the group of guys who are making a lot of fun now, those revolutionaries in Visigoth, would be nothing.

Wilhelm von Hereford, with his vast territory, would establish his supremacy in the Ostrogothic Empire. After this, the combination of the Russian Gothic Empire + the Ostrogothic Empire, if the Visigoths were defeated again, Wilhelm said that he would not have territorial claims to the Visigoths.

After that, the entire Gothic nation will be united under the command of William von Hereford! And then the Asturias and the Lombards will definitely be the first to prostrate at William's feet!

"Such strength, such strength! plus a third of the Indies, plus the territories of the dark elves in the south, plus the territories of the Zoroastrian Empire and Afghanistan. The Russian Gothic Empire would have absolute superiority in the known world. It's like a country like Briton has no way to fight against it at all!"

Thinking this in her heart, Victoria unconsciously had a feeling of powerlessness.

"No, no, I still have hope, I still have a chance, things won't end so easily!"

Victoria cheered herself up and said, "Things are still turning around, and I won't throw in the towel so easily—but, but." If that's the case, then what the hell should I do to prevent the emergence of an entire Gothic nation-state?"

Victoria thought desperately, desperately and desperately. But she couldn't think of it anyway - if before that, when the Visigothic revolutionaries had not yet appeared, she was confident that she would gather the power of the Ostrogothic Empire and the Visigothic Kingdom, plus the strength of the colonies all over the world and the Briton Kingdom itself, it would not be something that William could fight against at all.

In this case, Victoria should be in a safe position - but this is not the case, and things are worse than Victoria thinks. After the emergence of the Visigothic Republic, Victoria's expected and very pleasant plan to rule the world had a serious flaw, which made her suspicious, suspicious, and troubled.

"I can't accept that! For the current Ostrogothic Empire, maintaining the status quo is the best policy. We, the Kingdom of Briton, refuse any action to break the status quo of the Ostrogothic Empire!"

For a moment, Victoria could only pretend to be a stubborn conservative, and said such things for no reason, no reason, and no popularity.

Sure enough, just as William thought, after Victoria said this, the surrounding audience, that is, the guys from the other small states, either showed disapproving expressions, or looked disappointed-

Those who don't think so, are the small states of Lombard and the Asturias, and those who are disappointed are naturally the princes of the Ostrogothic kingdom.

In the face of Victoria's fierce opposition, William did not get angry, or even refute, but said lightly: "Oh? Briton is against any action to break the status quo of the Ostrogothic Empire, including the loss of the three kingdoms of Frisia, Franconia and Lotteria to the lawless mob?"

William's words made the surrounding emissaries almost can't help laughing - yes, the three elector kingdoms of the empire have perished, destroyed by those lawless Visigothic mobs. However, Victoria was still saying something unacceptable at this moment.

It's just a joke.

At the same time, this is indeed a counterattack by William, an absolute weapon, and a revelation of the nature of the current Briton kingdom - although they say this and that, although they oppose this and that, express their opinions and organize the army or something, pretend to be very strong, but do not forget that the Britons are defeating.

In a series of previous battles, the Bretons and their allies had gained nothing but defeat, defeat and defeat. These guys are so unlucky and unlucky, and more importantly, they are so weak.

Since a boss, weak and without deterrence, and at the same time not enough strength to protect himself. Then one is useless, and two is not level.

There is no need for such a guy to exist. Uh-huh, yes, yes, yes, there is no need to exist at all, completely.

In such a situation, all of Victoria's proposals lose their meaning. And Victoria herself noticed this, her face was pale and almost bloodless, and her expression when she looked at William changed from hatred, anger, to fear, and even a little pleading.

It was so pitiful that all the gentlemen present couldn't help but be thrilled, even a few who openly showed that their sexual orientation was different.

This woman is really, people can't help but admire, I feel sorry for her, if I can get her into bed, then ......

In normal times, before the Visigoths appeared and beat the Britons to the ground, they would never have dared to do so, even if they had given them another guts.

However, now, Victoria finally understood what it meant to be a tiger falling into Pingyang and what a hero's end was - of course, because the Kingdom of Briton still had more strength than other countries, so they could only think about it in their hearts, and they didn't dare to really do it. Otherwise, now waiting for Victoria, I'm afraid it won't be some innocuous YY.

"I see. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Victoria finally nodded quietly and said to William, "Then we can sign an agreement - we can keep the status quo of Indy." But at the same time, the current situation of the Ostrogothic Empire was the same. ”

"In other words, do you want to tie up the maintenance of Maratha with the maintenance of the Ostrogothic Empire?" thought to William.

"We don't need to promise her. By William's side, Elise, who had long seen Victoria's displeasure and didn't know how many ugly things she had said in her heart, whispered: "Ostrogothic Emperor, that is much more important than the territory of Indy anyway." It's a deal that we're at a loss, William. ”

In fact, it was not only Elise who thought so, but also the nobles and emissaries gathered around William - just kidding, in this era when the old world was the center of the world, what fool would choose an insignificant colony instead of the revival of a great empire?

Even if the colony is really big, rich, and rich in resources.

In the eyes of all, this agreement is unfair. And to be able to figure this out, naturally William can also figure this out. They even began to look forward to the disintegration of the world empire of the Briton kingdom, and then flattered William.

William's answer, however, was categorical: "Very good." Then let's sign the agreement. (To be continued.) )
