Lord of Industrialization

It is common for two countries to send envoys to each other when they are at war.

Archduke Suarez had sent envoys to Prince Moritz several times before, all of which condemned the Kingdom of Gaul for interfering in the internal affairs of the Kingdom of Tarragona, demanding that the Kingdom of Gaul withdraw its troops and that the affairs of the Kingdom of Tarragona be resolved by its own people.

Everyone knows that the condemnation of Archduke Suarez's envoy is useless, and is just a political gesture.

After work, the envoy had a meal, and then went to Archduke Suarez with the envoy of the Kingdom of Gaul chatting and laughing. The envoy of the Kingdom of Gaul refuted severely, had a meal, bought some local specialties as spoils of war, and went back.

The envoy who came today was Count Sampaio, the cousin of Archduke Suarez. Old Louis thought it was just a routine matter this time, so he asked Prince Moritz to receive him.

When people get old, it is easy to feel tired after the brain thinks at high speed.

Old Louis finally understood why Ferdinand wanted to drink happy water before his death. After drinking it, he could indeed replenish his physical strength and refresh himself, and the taste was much better than the refreshing medicine made by pharmacists.

People have discovered that happy water tastes better after being chilled.

In the past, old Louis would use his own aluminum cup to fill a cup of cold happy water and taste it slowly.

But one day he saw young people blowing directly into the bottle, which looked very refreshing. Out of curiosity, he learned it once, and then he didn't use aluminum cups anymore.

Old Louis had just drunk half a bottle when the attendant reported that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had arrived.

"Let him in," said old Louis, "prepare a bottle of happy water for him."

A large number of medicines are needed on the battlefield, especially those for treating wound inflammation and gastrointestinal diseases.

Today, the pharmaceutical industry of the Duchy of Wessen is one of the leaders. Garlic capsules are very effective in treating gastrointestinal diseases, and there are also gauze and so on. The Gaul army purchases a large number of them.

Little Louis did not make achievements in the army, and was stopped by Louis to purchase medicines.

Today, little Louis just came back from purchasing a batch of medicines and came to report on his work.

"Father," Louis Jr. took out two fist-sized plastic bottles, "This is the latest disinfectant wine produced by Wesson Works, suitable for cleaning wounds and will not fester."

The two bottles contained iodine and cotton balls soaked in iodine, with the label on the front drawing the usage, and the back with patterns and various words saying "No drinking".

Old Louis picked up a bottle of iodine and studied the instructions carefully.

At this time, the servant hurried to report an unexpected news to him: "The envoy proposed to Prince Moritz the marriage of Baron Moritz and his cousin Medello."

Old Louis was stunned and asked, "Which Baron Moritz?"

The next moment he thought of who it was: "Eugene?"

The servant replied, "Yes."

Little Louis has a good relationship with Eugene, and said with a smile: "Haha, it seems that Eugene can't be as free as before, and he has to be tied up."

Old Louis was still wondering at first whether this was a divisive plot by Archduke Suarez to alienate himself from Prince Moritz.

In the army, the king and the commander are at odds with each other, which is a taboo in military strategy.

However, Louis's laughter made his heart skip a beat.

Old Louis waved his hand and said, "I know."

"I'm tired, you all should leave, I'll go back to my room to rest."

Little Louis didn't think much about it, thinking that his father was really tired, and stood up and said, "Father, I'll take my leave first, you have a good rest."

He didn't know the identity of the envoy, thinking that it was a noble from the country who came to propose marriage, and he thought that Eugene might return to the country because of this, so he was naturally happy.

He knew that the Duchy of Wessen sent troops, but he had previously remotely controlled the purchase of medicines in the capital, and some people who stayed in the country were very secretive about Eugene's success, so they didn't mention it.

So far, Louis didn't know that the commander-in-chief of the Wessen Army's Western Front Corps was Eugene.

Old Louis sat alone in the room, his face was terribly gloomy.

Louis's laughter made him alert, and he recalled what happened today and found that something was wrong.

The massive attack proposed by Prince Moritz earlier seemed to be fine, but what if there was another hidden meaning behind it... For example, Louis Jr., Prince Moritz and Archduke Suarez, or even Frederick colluding with each other.

According to Prince Moritz's plan, the further the army goes forward and the farther it is from the rear, the larger the gap will be.

If Eugene leads the army to appear behind him at this time, cuts off the supply, and attacks from both sides, the army will undoubtedly be defeated.

Just now, Prince Moritz suggested sending an envoy to win over the nobles in the plateau area, but those who lead the troops certainly don't want to leave the opportunity to earn military merits on the battlefield. At this time, Louis Jr. came, and no one would object to letting him preside over the envoy to show his sincerity.

What if the envoy went there to ask the nobles on the plateau to open a way for Eugene, or even send guides and provide supplies?

Wouldn't it be too coincidental that the envoy of Archduke Suarez and Louis Jr. arrived on the same day?

Such a big thing requires a person who can speak to both sides to mediate, or even such a person to plan such a conspiracy.

This man, looking left and right, up and down, looks like Grand Duke Wessen.

The more old Louis thought about it, the more scared he became. He found that it all made sense and his body trembled.

Anything could happen in the chaos of the army. It would be easy for him to have an accident.

By that time, he would be gone, and little Louis would naturally succeed to the throne. What else could others say?

All the participants in this matter were winners.

Little Louis inherited the throne.

Prince Moritz assisted little Louis to ascend the throne and his power went further.

Archduke Suarez could "drive away" the Gallic army, win over the domestic nobles, defeat Duke Aranzati and ascend the throne of the Kingdom of Tarragona.

Archduke Vessen...

Old Louis shuddered again when he thought of him.

Everyone knows that Archduke Vessen loves his mistress so much that he even gave a city to his mistress.

Old Louis already knew that Frederick had found poison in the vase in Antonia's old house in Paris. If he found out that he had instructed Antonia to poison his lover Francoise...

More and more sweat appeared on Old Louis' forehead.

He was a little regretful. He just wanted to provoke an internal fight between Antonia, the queen of the Rhine Alliance, and Frederick. Who would have thought that this would become the stick that sounded his death knell.

Old Louis was glad that he had seen through the huge conspiracy in advance and began to think about countermeasures.

He wanted to return home, but this idea was quickly dispelled. Letting Louis Jr. win over and control the army would have more serious consequences.

There are many factions in the Gallic army, and now the faction of Prince Moritz is the main one in the army of the Kingdom of Tarago.

To survive, someone needs to contain Prince Moritz.

There is another big faction in the Gallic army, the Duke of Rollo in the north.

It was just that Duke Rollo was defeated in the Kingdom of Lisenburg a few years ago and lost his power, so he could not send troops to the Kingdom of Tarago to gain military merit.

It was Duke Rollo who put the blame on Eugene for the defeat and made enemies with Prince Moritz, so he just used him to balance it.

Old Louis was about to call his attendants, but then he immediately thought, if those people realized that the conspiracy was discovered by him, would they jump off the wall in desperation?

So he came to the desk and wrote several long letters, some to Duke Rollo, some to Frederick, and some to some great nobles in the country.

Saving his life is important, and all kinds of promises are thrown out like money.

On the one hand, he ordered Duke Rollo to organize a large army to come to the Kingdom of Tarragona, and the senior officials left behind in the country cooperated to keep it secret as much as possible, under the pretext of not letting Archduke Suarez know.

On the other hand, he stabilized Frederick, put the blame on Antonia, and removed himself from the matter.
