Magic Underachiever

The news from the Governor's Mansion in Marcellus immediately caused an uproar in the whole world. Just when all countries were caught off guard by this news, Marquis Whitehead announced that all the imperial garrisons in Marcellus would be reorganized into the Marcellus Defense Army, and controlled the Dosan Railway to prevent the Vlomink Empire from transferring troops to Marcellus.

At the same time, the Azure Corps entered Saroyan, and while controlling this important city, it surrounded the Imperial Fleet Naval Port.

Marquis Whitehead's army controlled the railway line that ran through the east and west of Marcellus, leaving the Imperial Army, who did not know what was going on, wondering whether to fight the Parliament Army or turn around and attack the lifeline that was strangled.

The Parliament Army also stopped all military operations at this time, and they also did not expect Marquis Whitehead to make such a decision at this time.

Governor Marcellus announced the re-election of the Parliament and was willing to return all power to the Marcellus Parliament.

Then once the new Marcellus Parliament is established in Saroyan, and Marquis Whitehead really transfers power, the Parliament Army will lose its basis for existence and will soon fall apart.

Speaker Peters does not believe that Whitehead will really give up power, but the morale of the Parliament Army has indeed been greatly impacted. Therefore, when Marquis Whitehead proposed a ceasefire and peace talks, the Parliament Army quickly sent a negotiation team to Saroyan. If the new parliament can really get all the power, then the power of the old parliament must get enough seats in the new parliament.

As for recognizing that Marcellus is part of the Vlomink Empire, it is not a problem for the Parliament Army at all. The Marcellus War has been fought for nearly a year, and the Parliament Army knows very well that they cannot beat the Empire and may eventually bring in the Eastern countries.

They spent money, died, and finally made wedding clothes for others. Rather than making Marcellus poor and then being divided, it is better to recognize a suzerain and get real power.

The Empire really didn't expect Marquis Whitehead to play such a trick. Now, the Death Desert has been cut off by the Marcellus Defense Army, and all the troops still loyal to the Empire are trapped between the Parliament Army and the Defense Army, and the supplies are still in the hands of the Defense Army.

What the Emperor of the Empire could not have imagined was that the First Division of the Royal Musketeer Cavalry Regiment was also instigated by Marquis Whitehead. Reed Jennings controlled the Emperor's personal soldiers, and together with the Azure Corps, surrounded the land camp of the Imperial Navy Fleet.

Across the Death Desert, the Empire completely lost control of Marcellus. Faced with the suggestion of Marquis Whitehead to establish the Principality of Marcellus, the Emperor of the Empire tore the petition to pieces in front of all the ministers.

"The Principality of Marcellus... Whitehead wants to be the Grand Duke of Marcellus! This is the land conquered by the ancestors of Vlominke, and I will never allow it to be lost from my hands. Who is willing to lead the troops to take Marcellus back from the rebels..."

The ambitious emperor of the empire suffered a heavy blow at this moment, and the ministers in the court were silent one by one, letting him know... that he really lost Marcellus this time.

The current empire is not as powerful as the empire during the Hundred Years' War, and the transportation lines of the Death Desert were opened again and again. The empire has become very weak.

The Prime Minister whispered: "How should we deal with the Whitehead family and the families of the rebels? And... Whitehead asked His Majesty to send negotiators to Saroyan to discuss the armistice of Marcellus and the establishment of the Principality of Marcellus.

It is reported that the rebels of the Old Parliament have sent people to Saroyan, and they are very interested in Whitehead's proposal to establish a principality.

Your Majesty... Whitehead cannot really give up power. The Marcellus Socialist Party may have been founded by him. He wants to control Marcellus behind the scenes by controlling the parliament. The power of the Old Parliament will definitely compete with Whitehead in the new parliament. As long as we respond correctly, it will not be a complete failure."

The Prime Minister of the Cabinet carefully reminded the Emperor of the Empire. The establishment of the Principality of Marcellus is almost unstoppable, and the Empire cannot make any effective countermeasures. In order to prevent Marcellus from becoming an enclave, the Empire should participate in this peace talk and stabilize the remaining influence of the Empire through the parliament.

As long as there is still imperial power in Marsellus, there may be a chance to take back this land in the future.

The emperor of the empire, whose anger gradually dissipated, carefully considered the prime minister's advice. Since he could not fight any more, he could only adapt to the situation and endure it, waiting for future changes.

"For the families of the rebels... no charges will be imposed for the time being. You have full authority to deal with the rest. Remember, the Dosan Railway cannot be lost!"

Holding the great cause of Marsellus' freedom, holding the lifeblood of the empire. Marquis Whitehead's announcement calmed down the fiercely fighting Marsellus almost instantly. The parliamentary army retreated, and the imperial army was ordered to stay on the spot. The living supplies were supplied by the National Defense Army, and the supply volume was the same as in wartime, except for weapons.

The parliamentary army and the empire sent representatives to Saroyan, and the peace talks in Marsellus were just beginning.

At this time, Speaker Peters, who wanted to know the real purpose behind the Saroyan incident led by Marquis Whitehead, quietly entered Saroyan and came to the Elysee Avenue.

He did not attend the peace talks with Marcellus because he knew that there was no point in talking about it and that the person who could truly decide the future situation of Marcellus lived in this place.

"Master Liang, I have always felt that all of us are chess pieces in your hands." When Peters saw Daliang again, he no longer had the same high spirits as before. He wanted to lead the Marcellus people to independence and become a hero with the highest honor. But after more than a year of war, he realized that he thought the war was too simple. Once the war started, it would no longer be controlled by personal will. Especially what he has experienced during this period, and what he is experiencing now...

Peters couldn't help but complain: "Now it seems that we are indeed your pawns. Marquis Whitehead dared to establish the Principality of Marcellus because you supported him behind the scenes. A "return power to the parliament" forced us to come to Saroyan for peace talks. Without the parliamentary army, it would have split.

You and Whitehead established the Socialist Party. If I am not mistaken, the first government of the Principality of Marcellus must be formed by the Socialist Party. By controlling the Socialist Party, you can control Marcellus.

As for the Empire. They can't fight on, and with the fig leaf of the suzerain country, they can only accept it with a pinch of their nose."

Facing Speaker Peters who looked like a complaining woman, Da Liang smiled and said: "Speaker Peters, you came to me this time, so I don't have to look for you.

The Socialist Party is still short of a party leader. Are you interested in taking the position?"

Speaker Peters was shocked: "You, you want me to be the leader of the Socialist Party?"
