In response to the old emperor's marriage proposal, William's opinion was to put it off -- not to say yes or not, of course, but to simply agree to it, and then drag it out without getting married -- until the war was over and the winner would be decided. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

- Yes, the old Emperor Kalman IV used this marriage as a means to win over thugs. But in William's view, this marriage was an additional clause after the defeat of the Swabian family, and a justified basis for the Hereford family to obtain more benefits from the defeat, and even a reasonable and legal proof of dividing more Swabian family territory.

Yes, when an emperor's daughter marries, the dowry must be very generous. Wright didn't need much, either. All he had to do was get close to Bohemia and Saxony in Wende...... So, this Great Moravia is really unbelievable. With such a large state, it doesn't matter if it is split into three.

William is not greedy, as long as he can get his fair share. Then he would get a copy for his unborn brother, and he would be satisfied.

Yes, at the same time that Khalman IV wanted to use marriage and heirs to win Russia, William also expected to seek Great Moravia in the same way.

Of course, the premise is that William's father, King Otto, really pulled down his face to create man...... Although William believed that his father still had this function...... It's just that......

Forget it, this topic is really not easy to say. All in all, that's it. William's letter to King Otto was quickly replied.

King Otto was a little annoyed and angry at William's attitude towards his father's marriage as a bargain. He had a rare hard time saying something to William. The general meaning is that it has never been heard of that the marriage of children is decided by the parents. I have never heard of a marriage between parents and children.

All in all, King Otto was not as shameless as William. Even if William told him that if he couldn't bear it, he would make a big plan, and that he could get a lot of things through a marriage, and he could do this and that...... But King Otto still didn't do it.

So William could only write again, and in addition to continuing to repeatedly explain to His Majesty the importance of this marriage, he also lowered the bar somewhat.

William declared that the marriage was only an engagement, and that the real marriage would have to wait until the end of the war. It will even be invalidated because of the change in the situation. In any case, as long as this marriage contract was concluded, then Kalman IV would be more at ease with the Russian kingdom, and he would be even more bold, even directly pushing the emperor to declare war on the rebellious states, becoming the first fool among the many big men to end.

Therefore, this marriage is not only a marriage, but also a pit. Kalman IV wanted to pit William, and William also wanted to pit Kalman IV. So one of them launched their own daughter, and the other launched their own ...... Uh, father. All in all, the Duchess of Tyrolean and His Majesty King Otto were innocent.

The Duchess of Tyrole, William didn't know very well, but King Otto didn't know if he would feel a sense of powerlessness after reading the letter written by William.

"So, I'm all for the family, I'm for the family...... I have a clear conscience. William thought to himself.

And so a few days later, letters from Emperor Kalman IV also came. He agrees with William's attitude, but is a little unhappy about the engagement.

According to him, betrothals are generally between underage men and women. And King Otto and his daughter are both adults, and they are already married adults. So there's no need to do that.

His Majesty the Emperor was eager to send his daughter over today, marry tomorrow, give birth to a child the day after tomorrow, and kick William out and make his grandson the crown prince.

In this way, in May and June of 1741, it was near the end of the back-and-forth between William and King Otto and Emperor Kalman IV......

It is also during these two months that the situation on the mainland has also changed drastically...... As the two states declared their renunciation from traditional denominations, Protestants in other parts of the continent began to become unstable...... The denominations of this world are basically like this, the further south you go, the more traditional, and the further north you go, the more neodehyged.

Just like the fastest cannon fodder this time, Lotteria and Frisia are the Uttar Pradesh of the Empire. And Moravia, Lombardy is the representative of the south......

In the process, Britton's Protestant sect was very happy to give a boost. They controlled a large part of the Visigothic North, Normandy, and had great pleasure in giving speeches in support of the Protestants in both places, among other activities.

This is an action on the surface.

And secretly, they stuffed money and weapons into the Protestant clergy of the two states, as well as the small and medium nobles, and the representatives of the burghers, and they were also very cheerful.

Against this backdrop, William was surprised to get two pieces of news - that is, someone wanted to start a new business.

Joined by an alliance of alchemists on the mainland, the two Protestant states seem to have a tendency to break away from the empire and form a new state on their own—needless to say, the Britons behind it.

William was also surprised to find that a certain Grand Duke he had never cared much about had made a move.

Christian, Grand Duke of Jutland, I don't know if it was because he wanted to die, or for some other reason - in short, this ambitious and talented fellow also announced the expulsion of the traditional sect in mid-May, declaring himself a Protestant. He also joined the Northland Alliance of Friscia and Lotternia.

In this way, Archduke Christian temporarily became the highest-ranking person in this alliance. In this era of aristocratic hierarchy, it was only natural that the Grand Duke Christian would automatically become the leader of the alliance, at least so was the Archduke himself.

"So, what the hell is this guy thinking? ”

After getting the news, William couldn't help but laugh - according to his script, the most important thing the Grand Duke should do was to shrink on his own one-third of an acre of land and sit back and watch the clouds rise. Who would have thought that this guy would actually get the hang of it......

However, Archduke Christian's decision cannot be miscalculated. One of his choices, though completely pushed the Grand Duchy into opposition to Kalman IV. But he was originally on the emperor's blacklist, and he was in debt.

Moreover, as the monarch with the highest title and the largest voice in this alliance. Archduke Christian began to come into frequent contact with this alliance, as well as with the important figures of the Alchemist Alliance, which was hidden beneath the water's surface.

Although what they talk about is quite secret. But William could guess Archduke Christian's wishful thinking.

This guy wants to be the leader of the Northland Protestant Alliance. He even said that he wanted to divide the Ostrogothic Empire, the Grand Duchy of Jutland, Frisia and Lotyrnia. Coupled with some of the empire's territories he had annexed some time earlier, including Holstein, Bremen and Braunschweig formed an empire and became the emperor of this patchwork of new empires.

"What a good calculation...... There was a time difference. He is now the highest-ranking nobleman in the Alliance. All of a sudden, they seized the opportunity. If you can fight a few more beautiful battles, then the new empire will not dare to say it, but a king title can most likely be obtained. ”

This is what William said about what Archduke Christian did......

Still, he didn't think so.

Because with the ability of Archduke Christian, it is simply wishful thinking to want to integrate the forces and forces of this alliance, and then defeat Kalman IV. Your Excellency, the final result can only be to drive the king and become a stepping stone to the real winner who has the last laugh.

"But...... Worse than that, the Protestant Union is split internally...... His Excellency Archduke Christian wants to start anew and split the empire, and Prince Henry will never agree. The confrontation between the Sarian family and the Erivan family is inevitable...... Will the Protestant Union split into two?"

William was slightly uneasy at the thought of this possibility, although the anti-Kalman IV coalition was now much stronger than Kalman IV. But if this power is split in half, will it be broken by Kalman IV individually? This is also a question worth considering.

The unexpected joining of Archduke Christian provided far less power to the alliance than the damage caused to the alliance.

Thinking of this, William couldn't help but sigh slightly, and then immediately responded—he quickly wrote two letters to Victoria and Henry of Franconia. They raised their concerns separately.

Of course, the focus of the two letters is different. In his letter to Victoria, William argued that they should all support Henry and ask him to keep the alliance under control.

And in the letter to Prince Henry, William transferred it somewhat. Expect to be able to provoke the wrath of this guy. Let him stand up quickly......

William chose Henry over Christian for two reasons, one of which was that Henry was somewhat capable and slightly stronger than Christian. Another reason is that after he annexed the whole territory of Wende, the territory controlled by the Grand Duke of Jutland was his next target.

If it really makes this grand duke a problem, then it will be difficult for William to do it if he wants to.

...... What exactly Victoria thinks, don't worry about it for the time being. But William soon learned what Prince Henry thought—

There was no need to wait for his reply, the Cheka's information came first. At the end of May, after hearing about Christian's part-time job, Franconia eagerly announced that he had joined the Protestant League. At this point, the actors of the first play have finally been gathered.
