I will be crowned king

It only took less than a day to complete the siege, suppression and occupation of the Royal Court of Yser. The Clovis people successfully showed off their force to their allies and enemies, and proved with facts that the Clovis people who had just experienced turmoil Not only did Wei not become weaker, but he became stronger than before.

Well, at least that's how it turned out.

Especially the Hantu people... At first, after seeing the more than 30,000 recruits gathered in Eagle Point City and the poor performance of these soldiers in the Cliff Fortress, these "veterans" who had participated in the New World Jihad were actually very disdainful. ; around the scenes of the battlefield being broken up and the soldiers escaping, various jokes ridiculing Clovis's new recruits were endless, and they felt a sense of revenge, wanting to prove that they were far better than they had been in the past, and that they could compete with the "real conquerors". Lowe Legion” shoulder-to-shoulder idea.

Then……

Then they stopped laughing.

It only took less than ten days from the time it set foot on the battlefield. This pure army of new recruits actually completely collapsed on the battlefield and marched through most of the Elf Kingdom of Yser with arms, skillfully constructing siege positions and suppressing the city. The riots, the transformation of the unilateral strangulation of the Yser elves and their defeat, and the untrained eye learned how to "raise supplies" within the enemy's territory.

Of course, this army is still a group of rookies, lacking experience and coordination... Yes, but they are already an army.

Gathering together a group of young men who had just driven cattle and weeding the fields, and turning them into a qualified army in ten days; asking themselves, the nobles and knights of Hantu believed that this was absolutely impossible.

But the Clovis people did it... Even though they had witnessed how the Clovis Army defeated the imperial army, the knights of Hantu, who were not afraid, felt for the first time what the real gap was.

No matter how many talented people, no matter how many knights a kingdom has, it cannot be compared with a country that can pull out tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people at any time, and then quickly turn them into an army and fully armed. This is completely different. level.

If Hantu felt the fear, then what the Yser elves felt was completely ridiculous.

It was clearly an undisguised war of aggression, but how could it suddenly turn into Hantu and the Clovis joining forces to save the fragmented Elf Kingdom of Yser from the hands of the rebels?

The surviving elves did not dare to say anything, let alone ask. They could only look at it with extremely complicated eyes as their once-admired Majesty Igor Moses Field put on the crown again and became his own Elf King.

In any case, this is still something they are familiar with, and they can only hope that this can change the current situation of the Yser Elf Kingdom and restore the country to a normal state as soon as possible.

Perhaps to prove that what they said was true, the Clovis Legion took the lead in announcing a relief plan for the Royal Court of Yser: distributing part of the logistical military supplies to the civilians of the Royal Court to make up for the suffering they suffered in this cruel war. Loss.

Hantu did not hesitate to make concessions. Little Leon said that Hantu was not purely for his own interests in this war. Therefore, if humans in Yser suffered losses in the war, they could move their families to Hantu. The Langois royal family will allocate enough land for them to sustain their lives.

As the Elf King Igor who has already put on the crown, he will immediately hold his own coronation ceremony as a "new beginning" for the Elf Kingdom of Iser.

Things in the Elf Kingdom of Yser seem to be finally getting better.

…………………………

While the Royal Court of Yser was bustling with activity, the news that the Southeast War was over finally reached Clovis City; the National Assembly, the Ministry of War and the Prime Minister's Office collectively lost their voices, and fell into a very rare complete silence. status.

The departure date of the Ranger Corps was April 20th—of course it was actually April 23rd, but Anson left Clovis City on April 20th—and they got the news on May 30th. One day, what does this mean?

It means that excluding the time of message transmission, the Yser War will be over by May 28th at the latest!

It only took a month to end a war, even if the target was a country like Iser, which was not very powerful, but it still left the National Assembly dumbfounded, unable to believe the authenticity of the report.

And as battle reports from the front began to arrive one after another, the original shock turned into disbelief: If what Anson Bach said was true, then he not only ended the war in one month, but also broke through. They defeated the entire defense line of the Yser elves, defeated and annihilated the Yser elves army of no less than 30,000 people, captured more than 8,000 people, swept hundreds of towns and villages... and also captured the Yser Royal Court!

This sounds like a fantasy event that can only happen in novels. When it was actually before them, all the representatives fell into unprecedented self-denial, repeatedly confirming whether they were still dreaming or had mental problems.

Of course, the "radicals" headed by the Royalists and the Black Flag Party are still more inclined to the Ranger Corps to falsely report their military exploits, write the battle report into a third-rate novel, and require the frontline troops to submit evidence immediately, otherwise they will propose the "most severe punishment" accusation".

However, this accusation was still in the process of being discussed in the National Assembly... Just kidding, it is the authority of the Ministry of War to judge military merits. Today's Ministry of War is no better than it was back then. It really holds military power in its hands; a small group of parliaments The representative yelled twice and wanted to seize the territory. This was simply because he lived too leisurely and couldn't think about it.

As a once competent subordinate and now a close collaborator, Anson certainly would not make things difficult for Sophia: His Majesty Igor Mossfield’s personal letter, personal belongings of senior prisoners of Cliff Fortress, sabers and guns, and various important Files and officer rosters began to be delivered to the Loyalty Palace one after another.

Armed with these solid evidences, the arrogant Minister of War Yujia personally summoned the National Assembly and killed all the representatives who had questioned the results of the war on the spot, leaving not even a single person who dared to talk back.

And when the war report was completely confirmed by the National Assembly to be true, the entire city of Clovis was immediately ecstatic. The front page of every newspaper was the news of the victory of the Yser war. From the inner city to the outer city, excited shouts could be heard. .

Whether it was the king's "escape" or the establishment of the National Assembly, not only the allies would cast doubtful eyes on it, but even the Clovis people themselves were doubtful - Clovis, who was no longer the kingdom, was really still Can it be as powerful as it was in the past?

This is not a small problem... As we all know, Clovis's army is absolutely loyal to the king. It is by relying on the powerful army to protect the interests of the kingdom that the Osterian royal family gained the absolute legitimacy to rule Clovis. .

In other words, for the particularly practical Clovis people, any religious or divine rights are secondary. Whether a system or a dynasty can lay a foundation in this land and in the hearts of thousands of people on this land. , the key lies in whether it has the strength and ability to protect the interests of this land.

Equality and freedom only satisfy everyone's interests. Victory in foreign wars is the fundamental guarantee for the continued existence of the National Assembly.

And now Anson Bach, as a representative of the National Assembly and in power, has proven to the country that Clovis is still strong, even more powerful than before!

Two years ago, it took Clovis more than half a year to join forces with Hantu and the Church of Order to successfully punish the Elf Kingdom of Iser; two years later, Clovis under the National Assembly only took one month!

Of course, there is actually no comparison between the two. The situation Major General Ludwig faced back then and the capital in his hands were completely different from Anson's today.

But ordinary people don't care about this. They can only see that Ludwig struggled for more than half a year and almost lost the war. He only relied on the help of the church to conquer the royal court. Now Clovis's army can Iser was suppressed and beaten until he couldn't hold his head up, and even forced the other party to pay compensation, cede territory, and sue for peace.

This is the gap, this is the difference!

Of course, Sophia would not go so far as to say bad things about her brother to damage his reputation. All newspaper propaganda specifically stated that it was because of the "jealousy" of the old War Ministry, the royal family and the wealthy families, and various constraints that led to the last Yser War. Things didn't go well for him; now that Anson Bach has the full trust of the whole country, he can naturally succeed.

So old Clovis doesn’t work, New Clovis does.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Viscount Bogner, who was in charge of staying behind, made a special trip to the National Assembly as a "rotating governor" to deliver a speech: "The victory of the Yser War has fully proved the integrity of the National Assembly system and the Supreme Code. Superior, great Clovis is gradually emerging from her most difficult days and no longer needs undue protection."

"Therefore, as mentioned by some representatives of the parliament before, regarding the topic of re-election to power, I am personally willing to accept it and submit a formal application to the parliament, hoping..."

"I object!"

Before Viscount Bogner could finish his speech, Colonel William Cecil, representing North Port, stood up first, holding up a scroll and interrupting:

"The current Clovis has not been relieved from the crisis you mentioned - our allies are still counting on our protection, our enemies are still eyeing us, and within our borders, there are still a large number of people who do not agree with us. In the parliamentary system, groups that do not agree with freedom and equality are active!”

"So I personally think that what Clovis needs most now is not even the National Assembly, but an unshakable iron fist that can unite everyone; turn all the noisy noises into one voice and unite the scattered fingers together. , integrating thousands of hopes into a torch for everyone, leading Clovis to a bright new era!"

“Therefore, the Supreme Council should not only not be dissolved, but also should directly grant them a special power in the name of the National Assembly: before the end of the war, it should be regarded as the highest permanent body of Clovis, automatically possessing the highest authorization of Clovis, that is, The position of the War Office, the immediate superior authority of the Privy Council and the National Assembly, is unshakable.”

"And before the war is over, whoever proposes dissolution or re-election to power..." The navy captain turned his eyes to the corner of the parliament, making some people suddenly feel chilled:

"Then it should be regarded as an act of treason and punished immediately!"

In an instant, the lively atmosphere in the parliament just now fell silent.

"Ahem... On this point, Parliament still needs to hold a corresponding vote to make a decision. It cannot be decided by William Cecil on your behalf."

Christian Bach, who softly broke the sudden embarrassment and stood up slowly, said in a deep voice: "Before that, I would like to ask Bogner to continue your speech, and after that, this meeting will also need to focus on Iser The negotiations in the Elf Kingdom make a final vote on whether to accept the proposal from Igor Moses Field..."

……………………

"Please rest assured that the National Assembly will never refuse."

At the same time, in the Yser Palace, Anson patted his chest and promised to the Crown Prince Hantu and His Majesty the Elf King in front of him: "The Clovis people are civilized people. Although we are greedy, we are willing to make some concessions for peace. of."

"Yes, you love peace."

Igor smiled indifferently, and at the same time turned his gaze to little Leon aside: "In order to avoid the trouble of having too much money, the Yser Elf must compensate Clovis for all military expenditures this time, and pay all Ransom for captured officers and nobles.”

"In order to solve the problem that the Ysel elves cannot manage too much land, the area around the Western Cliff Fortress, equivalent to two Hantu Principalities, will be ceded to Hantu as an enclave of the other party."

"At the same time, in order to reduce the problems that cannot be taken care of due to the reduction of the army, Antler Fortress will be completely demolished, leaving Clovis and Hantu completely undefended. This is really..." Igor sighed and laughed again. :

"It's so considerate, what do you think?"

Little Leon's cheeks suddenly turned red.

"I think what you said makes perfect sense." Anson remained unchanged, and even nodded matter-of-factly: "Look, by paying the cost of Clovis's military operations, you not only solved the internal rebellion but also It relieves Clovis’s financial pressure, which is a win-win situation for Clovis and Iser.”

"After this battle, Yiser is no longer able to govern such a vast territory. Handing it to Hantu will not only get rid of the burden, but also give Hantu an opportunity to expand. This is a win-win situation for Yiser and Hantu."

"As for the Antler Fortress... The chaos in your territory has not stopped. If you still maintain a strong fortress so close to the capital, isn't it a risk of threatening the royal city? And without it, you can still win over Hantu. The good relationship with Clovis is a win-win situation for both of us."

"Looking at it this way, isn't it true that Israel has been winning and winning? Signing this treaty is almost like winning a war. I can't even envy you. What do you think?"
