Compared with Li Lin, who is full of ambition to conquer the world, Roland and his friends are more like prodigals who hurriedly pack up their homes before the storm arrives and prepare to leave home. Compared with the two, Roland's shabbyness, embarrassment and embarrassment are more highlighted. However, even in this difficult situation, Roland did not give up his ideals lightly, but tried to promote the birth of a new way of thinking and a new form of government, and tried to protect and survive this government. In order to realize this unrealistic dream in the eyes of everyone, he not only boldly groped for the pockets of the high-spirited rich man, but also wanted to pull the god of fate who had been flattering Li Lin to his side when he had the opportunity.

In any case, Roland seems to want to accomplish a big thing that is unknown in the eyes of others. What do the big men think of whether this act should be called a great cause or a fool's act?

"Your Highness, you are getting more and more beautiful. ”

Envoy Wood put down his teacup and looked at the girl in front of him.

"As a woman or as a queen, Your Highness's charm is impeccable enough to make countless gentlemen fall in love with you. But...... A New Charlemagne...... It sounds romantic, but it's hard to capture the hearts of men. ”

"Men without ambition and vision will always grasp the shortcomings of women, and the truly discerning gentleman does not care about worldly evaluations and ordinary eyes, and discovers the charm that is difficult for ordinary people to notice. ”

Minerva covered her mouth with a fan and replied with a slight smile, and for a moment Envoy Wood, who was not sure whether to be fascinated or not know what to answer, sat in his chair and said nothing. Let the girl's flawless smile and the warm applause outside wash over him.

As a result of the coup d'état that broke out in Lüdes, the peace talks ran aground – neither fruitless nor unequivocally declared a breakdown, and just hung in the air. Until Charlemagne and Alfheim's war is decided, or until Charlemagne's and Alfheim's emissaries return to the negotiating table and reach an agreement with the diplomats, the peace talks will continue to hang there, and the envoys will have to stay in Innsbruck for a long time.

The envoys were not keen on leisure travel at public expense, nor were they so addicted to an exotic leisure town that they had developed a romantic affair in a casual town full of exotic flairs that they lingered like stealing cats – in fact, diplomats were often seen taking different girls to various high-end places – and the main reason for the diplomats being trapped in Innsbruck was the current treacherous situation.

The Wehrmacht had completed the encirclement of the Rhine front, and the 700,000 exhausted, hungry, demoralized, and unreplenished Charlemagne army was surrounded by nearly 300,000 well-armed, high-morale, and completely air-supremacy Wehrmacht troops in a narrow strip of land from the Vosges Mountains to the banks of the Rhine. Anyone can see that Charlemagne has lost the favor of the goddess of victory, the fickle goddess who is pulling the corners of her skirt at Alfheim, and with a little more effort, this victory destined to leave a strong mark on history must belong to the elves.

However, to everyone's bewilderment, the Defence Force ceased to operate - there was no compression of the encirclement, no endless air strikes, and no further division of the enemy forces in the encirclement. After besieging Charlemagne's army, the defense forces went on the defensive, as if they had lost interest in Charlemagne.

Things are not simple, there must be some unknown conspiracy behind it.

Everyone is convinced of this, after all, the elves have played strategic deception more than once, and those who have fallen for it will of course form some kind of conditioned reflex.

It would be foolish to act rashly before the situation is clear, and in any case, neither Alfheim nor Charlemagne have officially announced their refusal to accept mediation or withdraw from peace talks, so it is better to hang around and watch the situation develop while planning and coordinating in advance for possible changes in the future.

So the envoys stayed in Innsbruck for the time being, passing the time in various ways while quietly observing the changes in the world.

However, the diplomats did not wait for the good news of the resumption of peace talks, and a series of shocking news continued to appear to them through various channels.

The crown prince conspired with the army to carry out a coup d'état, the Church completely fell to the Dauphin's line from the Virgin Crown, supporting Charlemagne to carry the war to the end, and vowed not to give up until the Sharp-eared heresy was defeated, the Church sent the Atonement and Iscarho to hunt down the fugitive Queen of Minerva and the high-ranking officers of her faction, and the personal guard under the dictator of Alfheim also appeared in Lüdes......

Before the diplomats could press their hearts back to their chests, the most shocking news was before them—the dictator of Alfheim had personally gone to Lüders to deliver a letter of war to His Majesty the Virgin and the Kingdom of Charlemagne, and that he was going to deal with Charlemagne's army and the entire Church in the Rhine encirclement.

It's crazy.

It is not surprising that princes and nobles go to war, since ancient times, it is the duty of nobles and knights to stand up and fight for the country and the people, and it is also the source of the nobility of the nobles. Looking at the long history of wars, there are by no means a few nobles and even royal families who died on the battlefield, even if it is a loser, people will not criticize him for his courage to face the battlefield and die. On the contrary, those who turn around and flee from the battlefield or flee without a fight will be unanimously spurned by the people, and will be infamous as cowards in the history books.

But bravery and aristocratic duty are one thing, but seeking one's own death is another.

Facing the enemy of the majority with a small number - this is undoubtedly a brave and courageous move, such as the Spartans of the Persian army against the Persian army at Thermolay, such as Hannibal who challenged the Roman army, but 1 vs. 700,000 ...... Even if it was a tired army of 700,000 demoralized, still trained and disciplined professional soldiers, the Supreme Commander had to destroy this army alone in the context of a leisurely command of troops to disarm or annihilate them...... It's either too much to perform, or it's just crazy.

Diplomats have put forward all kinds ?——of assumptions and speculations about the dictator, who has always been rational and wise, but so far there is no reliable conclusion.

The only thing that is certain is that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Charlemagne.

Siegfried Otto Learin is still single, and if he can be killed or captured, Charlemagne still has a good chance of turning over.

Yalfheim is not so much a state as a work of art, a cutting-edge machine of a combination of clearly defined departments, good technocrats, meticulous rules, a rigorous system of supervision, and a powerful and obedient device of violence. At the heart of the machine is the dictator. Thanks to an extraordinary eye and a wrist, the machine has worked flawlessly to this day and will continue to work.

What would happen if this machine suddenly lost its core?

If Li Lin had left a wife and a boy to inherit his position, Alfheim would have entered the Sanchald after his death, and until Li Lin's heirs had grown up and shown enough talent to take over the power, Alfheim would have kept a low profile to avoid disputes with foreign countries until the heir inherited his father's legacy and once again led the elven camp on the road to world supremacy. However, he currently has no wife and no children, and once he falls on the battlefield, the system that has been running smoothly with the dictator as the core will come to an end, and although the machine can still run by inertia for a while, the machine will eventually stop running if it loses its core power source and processor. Then the loyalty, cohesion, and discipline of the entire organization will gradually collapse, and even a civil war will break out for the sake of line assertion and power struggle......

It is hard to imagine that the dictator did not anticipate this, but if he knew this, why would he do such a crazy thing? Is he really a madman with a strong desire to express himself, who has behaved completely opposite to what he has always been?

While everyone was struggling with these questions, Her Royal Highness Minerva appeared in Innsbruck in a grand manner, and was informed that the Wehrmacht had closed the border between Charlemagne and Serres, and that all land and air routes had been cut off. The envoys, who were accustomed to seeing big scenes and strange things, couldn't help but cover their foreheads and lament: what is wrong with the world, is this a war or a play, are the high-ranking officials of Alfheim and Charlemagne stuffing their minds with horse manure? Or did they eat the same brand of fake medicine together?

Wailing and wailing, the envoys quickly understood the situation after the initial mental shock. With Charlemagne's current situation, it is not safe for Minerva to continue to stay in the country, and it is possible to intensify domestic contradictions and detonate a civil war. In contrast, if Her Royal Highness personally serves as a special envoy for negotiations, she can legitimately go to foreign countries to avoid trouble, and she can also directly negotiate with diplomats of other countries and control the negotiation process. At the same time, it also gives the countries an opportunity to observe Her Royal Highness up close, and evaluate whether this one is worthy of investment from the countries.

Minerva's performance did not disappoint them.

Compared with the arrogant and a little crazy crown prince, Her Royal Highness is not only polite, intelligent and modest, but more importantly, this highness has a very clear understanding of his own situation and that of Charlemagne as a whole, knows how to view the relationship between the kingdoms and Charlemagne, and is trying to correct the mistakes made because of stupidity.

She was really good, and she was impeccable as Charlemagne's new leader - all the diplomats had come to this idea after coming into contact with Minerva, and if it weren't for some reason, they had contacted their home countries to ask for their help in formulating a plan to get rid of the crown prince and put Minerva on the throne and resume peace talks with Alfheim.

The reason that made them deeply dissatisfied and incomprehensible, and which prevented them from taking action, was that Minerva was plotting to abandon Charlemagne.
