Vol 2 Chapter 56: Premeditated war

There is never a reason for war. From a certain perspective, it is just a derivative of human desire and a necessary process. From ancient times to the present, this violent process has always promoted the development and progress of human beings-relative to those who love peace, Humans are always one of the most advanced species.
For the Fording Empire, war is usually a feast for the noble knights.
The letter addressed to Christina’s territory "Korn" was quickly answered. For the safety of the owner of the territory, this rich territory is willing to pay 80,000 gold coins to ensure the safety of Mrs. Christina, including weapons, gold and silver , Jewelry and crystal magic props, etc., Murphy did not ask too much, the reason is naturally the subsequent plan.
Compared to the five carriages brought by Earl Watley, Mrs. Christina’s ransom was only full of two, and on the day these ransoms were delivered, Murphy took the pile of property and Christina directly to Emerald. Cui hurried away without stopping at all.
While the Earl of Watley was still considering whether to send troops to search and rescue Christina, Murphy had returned to Emerald Town within two days!
At this time, the widow dragged here from the Forddin Empire understands what abacus this guy is fighting-he is provoking the war between the Lord of Fordin and the Byzantine army!
It is completely unimportant how the unknown widow appeared in the sacred Gabriel empire at the level of the national army when it involved the national army-if it can, it is enough for the two countries to provoke a military confrontation!
If you don’t fight, you can say that the Fording Empire will never bow down on diplomatic issues. As a veteran powerhouse, Fording is qualified to not be afraid of any diplomatic friction!
Christina knows the history and temper of Earl Watley-if Baron Hun’s death only aroused his personal hatred for Murphy, then this time he was kidnapped to Byzantium. If he really wants to come, It is not impossible that the great aristocrats who will pull the entire Fortin Empire crazy against the Byzantine sacred Gabriel.
In other words, just armed confrontation is enough for some people to fish in muddy water...
For the Earl of Watley, the disappearance of that strategic partner has left him stunned recently, but another thing that happened immediately was the reason for his complete outbreak.
His chief successor, the eldest son Pamela, was attacked when he went out to hunt, and his limbs were broken. Although he finally left a life, he wanted to recover. It is estimated that it has not been a year and a half. Hope, more importantly if
Falling into the root of the disease, then this heir may be a waste person for the rest of his life!
Who did it?
According to the entourage and guards, the attacker was a blood race descended from the sky. With open wings, he killed the guards who tried to protect Pamela. After he brutally wounded Pamela, he dropped a letter. The content of the letter is very simple, it is a war book written by Murphys.
provocative?
In his letter, Murphy mocked Earl Watley as a coward who would only stand behind the scenes and buy the mercenary corps, and said Christina was in her own hands, wanting to clean me up?
Do it yourself!
The Earl of Vattle was really angry this time-the Lord of the Fording Empire has never been afraid of the matter. The Byzantine Empire is now using force against Kaslandi, which means that as long as it has one more enemy, the entire Byzantine Empire’s The fear will be one more point, so it is in line with what Murphy expected. The lord of the border of the Fording Empire directly asked the fastest messenger to send his request to the Lord of the Fording Empire, Louis VI, and three days later I got a reply.
The short-guard king gave an answer that was very satisfying to Earl Watley-the soldiers should be sent if they should.
So the unscrupulous Earl directly mobilized the soldiers in the territory, and even with a special guard mobilized by His Majesty the King, rushed straight to Feileng Cui!
Louis VI was already looking for a suitable reason to weaken the military power of Byzantium. This time, Earl Watley also gave him a logical excuse. The "Sword Oak Knights" with a total of more than 2,000 people belonged to the royal family. With more than 700 formal Fortin heavy armor knights and 1,500 servants, known as the Empire’s third armored cavalry regiment, its deterrent power is greater than its combat effectiveness. Although it has not appeared many times on the battlefield, it has always been an iconic presence of the Empire .
Their presence means that the Fording Empire has already expressed its attitude.
The ancient and proud Fording Empire never bluffed, just as more than 2,000 Imperial Guards led the three infantry groups and one cavalry group of more than 7,000 men under the Earl of Watley to the Byzantine border. When everything was on track, Just like a tank, it cannot be stopped.
"The war between two people, the war between two countries, I really want to thank you for providing me with a reason."
Earl Vatlay looked at the mountain in front of him and whispered that the horse under the crotch moved quietly and the army stretched to the foot of the mountain.
War means opportunity and wealth in the eyes of this count...
Murphy looked at the map in front of him seriously. The candlelight elongated his shadow, and the thin needle pinned to the map pulled out a radial shadow of the cobweb.
"Why did the heretical verdict send you to such a place?"
Without looking back, he asked the knight Jeanna behind him. This high-level knight is no different from an ordinary woman at this moment, except that a slightly short robe and that pair of godless eyes are not in harmony.
silence.
Jeanna didn't seem to be very cooperative, and Murphy was used to her attitude.
"One of the Big Three?
It seems that your level is not low, but then you may need to help me do something. "
Murphy didn't care either, and he didn't think of Mrs. Prague, one of the three giants of the official ruling agency that assigned Jeanna's mission-and the latter was the unlucky egg that was flew out by him.
"I reject."
"Of course, I know that the freaks from the heretical ruling will not be afraid of torture, and I don’t expect you to do things for me very happy. After all, for you now, death is only a matter of time. For example, now you are annoying me, I can kill you with a sword, it’s not more difficult than hacking ordinary people, is it?"
Murphy still didn't return his head, circled a circle on the map, staring there softly.
Jeanna did not answer. She saw the people still busy around here. This is the ruins of Fort Kosenyi. The guy in front of him can be regarded as desperate to kill the Kasker mercenary and his team. It can even be said to be crazy-it can make the high-ranking executioners of the heretical verdict feel "crazy" and can only say that the current Murphys has been recognized to some extent.
"You want to make this a quagmire of war, but you think you will not fall into it by standing aside?"
Jeana's voice was hoarse, and the words always carried onlookers' indifference. "Everyone who thinks he is in control of the winning game is likely to have fallen into the trap of others. I don't think your plan is shrewd."
"I never thought my plan was savvy. Just as the traps I used for hunting were not sophisticated, why are there so many animals?
Is it because they are not smart enough? "Morpheus took off a thin pin on the map and inserted it in another location. "It's simple. When the temptation is large enough, no matter how careful the prey is, it will risk betting. "
Jeanna was speechless, and countless war histories had confirmed Murphy's words were correct.
"War is just a game for lords and monarchs. On a certain level, they have nothing to fear, just war?
It's just the tags that a group of war-mongers put on themselves. "
"Then your behavior?"
"I?
My purpose is to make this group of war-mongers lose their blood. "
Murphy stretched out his hand and took out the scepter of Sulfuras that hadn't been used for a long time. Suddenly he waved in front of Jeanna. The elemental power oscillating in the air made any dark creature palpitate.
Including Jeanne.
"The heretical ruling should not miss a war caused by the greatest heresy, can it?"
When Murphy said this, those blue eyes lost their former luster, but they were shrouded in a strange black mist.
Let Na kneel on one knee while struggling, nothing more...
The unprecedented half-month of the election of the new Pope of the Holy Gabriel Empire has lasted for half a month~EbookFREE.me~ The shocking results have been somewhat dull to this day, the Vatican Holy See has restored the calm of the past, St. Peter's Basilica The building opposite was temporarily relocated, and the ruins of the heretical ruling that stood for nearly a thousand years were shrouded in huge curtains, so that believers could not see the tragic scene inside.
And lower than the Pope... No one would think that the new successor would be the oldest Bruno of all the existing Cardinals. This is the final compromise of the Cardinals after more than fourteen votes. The meaning behind it It is not difficult to guess-as Bruno, who can already give up the competition for the pope completely, his upper position means the beginning of a new wave of undercurrents within the Holy See.
Bruno, the weakest and oldest of the "Cardinals", said that his life should be appropriate soon. Instead of being a new pope, it is more appropriate to become a "transitional pope". His ambitions have been smoothed out and specialized in practice. Bruno, who is studying the scriptures, is not willing to spend too much energy on politics, so his series of actions after his succession have been covered up by another rising star at the same time.
The Cardinal Council will not be more than 120 full, and this group will always be His Majesty’s right-hand man in dealing with affairs and have the right to elect the Pope according to law-while Giovanni, the former Pope’s aide, was reviewed After the discussion, he became one of the members because of his pious attitude and outstanding contribution to the Holy See over the past ten years.
