Chapter 691: "·Four Princes·Up"

Heredity and growth environment are just "materials", only you can decide how to use materials to build a truly comfortable home.
-Alfred Adler (Austrian psychologist)
Bai Feng will lead the Fourth Route Army with more than 200,000 soldiers to counter the orc army in early November, and it has long been reported to the Imperial Army by the Duke of Genna; otherwise, how could Duke Coulen give the five Eastern Legions of Bai Feng What about the official number?
The alliance between the Bai family and the eighth prince is regarded as the most shocking event in the political arena of the empire in recent years; the newly-increasing Bai family, a three-duke family, still has a great gap in strength compared to the five ancestors of the old empire, but it is absolutely It can be called one of the top empire families in the empire.
The eight princes, with the support of the Duke of Tras as the supporter, had the overall strength of the four princes after the support of the Bai family in the south. They became the second prince after the prince; moreover, the eight princes and the prince The gap between them is shrinking.
Before the alliance with the Bai family, the largest supporter of the first prince was the minister of military affairs, the largest supporter of the fourth prince was the minister of finance, the largest supporter of the fifth prince was the foreign minister, and the largest supporter of the eighth prince was the minister of justice. The basic pattern of imperial politics.
Of the four princes’ private army units, what is the strength of the prince’s wind thieves group? Just because his maternal grandfather was the minister of military affairs of the empire, the wind thieves had many excellent weapons and heavy equipment of the empire military, which is why they are so powerful.
At that time, the big prince had the strongest overall strength, followed by the four princes with strong financial support, and the five princes and eight princes were the two weakest princes; this situation continued until the eight princes and the representatives of the Bai family Bai Feng alliance.
The Bai Family, the birth of the Twin Sword Saints, not only instantaneously rose its status in the southern border area, even in the imperial cities where the rich and powerful are all in the limelight; more importantly, the five major families in the southern border are self-contained, and the Bai family’s attitude has been somewhat Above, it can represent the entire southern border.
The support of the five major families in the southern border means that you have the support of at least four holy-level strongmen and five empire standing legions; such a strong force can almost instantly rewrite the power contrast between the four princes.
This is also the case. After the alliance with the Bai family, the weakest eight princes surpassed the four princes and the five princes, becoming the second strongest prince after the big prince; thereafter, the eight princes were connected with the other four families in the south. It is also getting closer.
If it is said that the eighth prince is only an alliance with the five families in the south, perhaps the eldest prince is not too worried; after all, his grandfather is the empire's military minister. With this relationship, his influence in the empire is far more than the other three Prince.
The support of the imperial military and imperial nobles is the two pillars that are indispensable for any prince to ascend to the emperor's position; the imperial noble class headed by the five princes' families is generally not blended between the princes. Heir dispute.
The four imperial ministers, such as the Duke of Columbine, the Duke of Hammond, the Duke of Boris, and the Duke of Tras, who are deeply involved in the battle for the throne, who let their daughters marry the emperor, and the grandson is the imperial prince? This is their destiny, or the ascension of chickens and dogs, or the death of the dead.
The open battle between the four princes, in the eyes of Charles the Emperor, who is in his young and powerful stage, is the only way to select a qualified emperor's heir; he deliberately indulged or even encouraged his sons to compete and balance the four as much as possible. The strength of the prince.
However, the sudden rise of the Bai family and the fierce attack of the orc army completely broke the balance of power among the four princes; the four princes and the five princes who became the weakest were formed after the eight princes allied with the Bai family A mutually supportive alliance.
In this way, the original four dragons' succession has evolved into the current three-legged situation; the four princes and the five princes joined forces are basically equivalent to the eight princes, and both sides are slightly inferior to the big prince.
Later, the orc army captured the sunset fortress and tried their best to deal with this unprecedented crisis of the imperial ruling class. They focused all their attention on how to stop the orc army from going west and the prairie army from going south. They had no time to take care of anything else. .
When the orc army was blocked east of the province of Nice, and the prairie army was blocked north of the province of Metz, the imperial dignitaries who came to the rescue and discovered another amazing reality: that is the power of the great princes and the four princes Shrink, and the Eighth Prince's power expands again!
The province of Alsace, where the elite Dragon Slayers of the Four Princes are located, was captured by a wave of cavalry from the grassland tribes; the strength of the Dragon Slayers could not resist the fierce attacks of countless grassland cavalry. Hundreds of thousands of grassland rides.
After a fierce encounter, the four princes, with the financial support of Marquis Hammond, formed the Dragon Slayer Knights, which took several years to form. They were devastated by the prairie cavalry and almost retreated to the annihilation of the whole army. Metz province.
The four princes, whose power was concentrated in the northern part of the empire, were hit hard, and their overall strength fell to the point where even the five princes were not as good; unfortunately, there was also the great prince, whose power was concentrated in the empire of the empire, but this time it was A heavy blow to the orc army.
Fortunately, the group of high-speed thieves who escaped the disaster was only a force deployed by the great prince in the empire of the empire; all other loyal forces of the empire loyal to the great prince were destroyed by the orc army.
After this battle, the strength of the eldest prince has shrunk by at least 40%. Compared with the undecreased strength of the eight princes, there is no advantage at all; unfortunately, the orc army’s attack not only did not weaken the strength of the eight princes, but strengthened the eight princes. Strength.
The Imperial Garrison at Sunset Fortress fought a war that humiliated the Empire and lost the Sunset Fortress that had not fallen since it was built; this was a war of no avail, but Bai Feng’s performance was enough to compete with Empire history The names on the list are comparable.
With a defeat of 150,000 soldiers and a frontal impact on the encirclement of 300,000 orc warriors, he first killed more than 50,000 orc warriors, then defeated 50,000 wolf cavalry, and finally rescued three friendly troops with his own strength; such a record , It's a legend!
It is no exaggeration to say that in the latest recruiting propaganda of the Imperial Army, Bai Feng and his elite seventh wing have already become idols worshipped by countless imperial recruits; this is why the battle cluster has become the Yulin Army. The failed empire needs heroes.
With his actual combat skills, coupled with the recommendation of the Duke of Gnaar, Duke of Krest, Duke of Rondestede and others, Bai Feng, who was only 18 years old, became the youngest army commander in the history of the empire, more than 20 Wan Dajun is in his hands.
Bai Feng is the core member of the Bai family. The Bai family is an ally of the eighth prince. The more than 200,000 troops in the hands of Bai Feng are basically equivalent to the expansion of the eight princes' power into the imperial army; The prince, the most unacceptable cruel fact.
If the fourth army under Bai Feng is counted as the power of the eighth prince, then the overall strength of the eighth prince has increased by at least 40%; the overall prince whose overall strength has shrunk by 40% and the eighth prince whose overall strength has increased by 40%, two The comparison of human strength has been reversed!
Therefore, around the situation of the Fourth Route Army and the Eastern Empire, the first and eighth emperors launched a series of fierce confrontations in the emperor; until mid-October, after the emperor Charlie came forward and issued several orders, the two of them became more and more excessive. The behavior just converged.
