Ultimate Weapon of Magic and Science

War brings prosperity.

This sentence is common to most parts of Charlemagne, but it does not work for the crowns of Ostoria and St. Eastman, especially the latter, for this territory that has a covenant with the Bourbon family. In other words, this \"Holy War\" brought them only poverty, taxation, and wives.

It sounds unbelievable. If it was hundreds of years ago, when the crown crown was still called the "big wasteland" by the Charlemagne nobles, even if the war was not burned here, the heavy burden would be like hanging on the neck Like a millstone, it makes the crown collar breathless. But after hundreds of years of persistently improving the soil, reclaiming the wasteland, and draining the swamps, the crown collar is now regarded as the largest barn area in Charlemagne. With the continuous growth of agriculture in overseas colonies, this place still occupies an important position in the Charlieman agricultural map. Although everyone will not be rich, there should be no problem to ensure that there is no famine.

However, today's Wang Guanling has experienced the unprecedented phenomenon of "famine in high-yield grain-producing areas".

Why is this? The reason is simple. When the people of Charlemagne profited from the prosperity brought by the war, the burden of the war was passed on to the territories.

Despite its small population, the crowns of Ostolia and St. Eastman provide the troops needed by the entire Charlieman Expeditionary Force, and continue to provide soldiers and supplies, which directly cause the two places to be strong. A large number of labor force is missing. The elderly left behind, women and children are forced to work instead of men on the front line, while working hard to pay taxes and eat a bite, while looking forward to husbands, brothers and sons in the distance can return safely. However, they wait Here comes the tax increase in response to the cost of war, and the bad news that thousands of white soldiers were "was thrown" in front of the public position before the Riga fortress.

The number of deaths is not large, but the shock that can be caused is not small. Looking at the families who have suffered from the loss of their loved ones, no one feels uncomfortable, but at this time the tax is further raised. This further intensified the crown collar and Charlemagne. contradiction.

Under the influence of mercantilist policies, the Rudes court placed the crown of Ostoria and St. Eastman in addition to the granary. They also regarded these two places as the industrially developed Charlemagne and Lapland. The source of raw materials and product markets in the southern provinces have set up an internal customs line between the hereditary provinces of Charlemagne and the dependent territories. Charlieman industrial products entering the territories through this line do not need to pay customs duties. Industrial raw materials are also not subject to tax, but the industrial products that enter the Charlemagne from the subordinates are like those of other countries, and they need to pay high tariffs. As a result, the subordinates lose money when selling raw materials and also lose money when buying back products. In addition, the Rudes court also prohibited Wang Guanling from exporting commodities such as grain, beef cattle, leather, fur, gallnut, silk, potash and wool to other countries, further causing terrible losses to merchants and farmers in the territory.

In this atmosphere filled with strong dissatisfaction, regardless of people's life and death. Continue to increase the excessive tax and miscellaneous taxes will cause any reaction, even the fool knows. Not to mention the contrast brought by the prosperous scene of Charlemagne's native, long queues can not buy People with anything, lost pus of land and houses, orphans in ragged clothes. Disabled soldiers begging along the street, the poor are only ""七树李树"", like the serfs, the broken nobles who are farming-Wang Guanling each People are all fashionable, and Charlie Man, who made a fortune in the war, cast a hateful eye, and in Ostoria, the situation is roughly the same.

In just one month, people in Charlemagne’s territories have become more and more clear to see. Who suffered in the war and who profited from the war. Even ordinary people began to think about what \"jihad\" was to them What is the point? More and more people think that they are completely acting as cannon fodder for Charlemagne's interests.

But dissatisfaction is not dissatisfied. For the crown-leading people who are proud of their pious beliefs, the topic of "rebellion" is still within the scope of taboos. Especially now that they are intimate with the pagan devil, they jump out of this section. They don’t dare to think about destroying the overall situation of jihad for all mankind. Therefore, the crown collar is maintained in a wonderful state of "extremely full, but it is difficult to make a decision." As long as it is not overly stimulating, For some time, these territories were still very obedient.

Until the 6th of the windy month, Admiral Julius Jacob De Hanau took his army into the city of Buda.

In a sudden visit to this general, the crown led up and down to be both unexpected and unpleasant. This Austoli Asian general is arrogant, arrogant and brutal. Not many people in his homeland like him.If you can, everyone does not want to meet him But Hanau was sent by the crown prince to send the minister, and he could not receive it. So everyone had to follow the traditional ceremony to receive the special envoy in the military camp on the Buda Castle Hill, and arrange for the Buda citizens to welcome them.

Until the moment General Heinau dismounted, everyone thought it was just another routine charismatic Charlie Man's play. After eating, drinking and enjoying, he set up a new tax task. When Heinu coldly announced the crown collar At the moment under Charlieman's military control, everyone froze.

\"Lord General, how can you do this!\"

The Duke of Esterhazy Miklosh reacted first, followed by Szechenyi. Earl of Estwan also came forward and said:

\"For hundreds of years, we have been observing the ancient covenant, and we have not partly disregarded Charlie Man’s demands. The people here are starving and dedicated their husbands, brothers and sons to support the jihad, but now you To occupy this land with an army, do you think this is the reward we deserve?\"

After the magnificent questioning, the crowd gave a terrible roar.The nobles, clergymen, and even soldiers were all angry, waving their fists and shouting loudly.

General Heinau was expressionless and opened.[,! He had anticipated this situation from the beginning, and he saw that he raised his wand, and the extremely cold voice spread through the city with the sound of loudspeakers, then passed through the river and spread to the city of Pace on the other side of the river.

\"Quiet! Gentlemen. The ancient covenant is still valid.\"

The noise was quiet for a while, but the next second, a larger storm hit the people in the crown.

\"However, for the sacred cause, for the "rules that must be followed", His Royal Highness the Prince decided to make some adjustments to the covenant. After all this is done, everything will be restored. I hope that the crown and its people will take discipline And perseverance. Fully cooperate with us.\"

\"If we don’t want it!\"

Kosut, a radical activist who had always sought the crown to lead the independence, said Baron Yorash stepped up, as if in response to his question, the Charlieman soldier in blue stepped forward and raised a rifle at the crowd.

\"Don’t be too excited, gentlemen.\"

Playing with a magic wand, looking around the crowd surrounded by muskets and bayonets, Hanao sneered and said in a tone of no guilt:

\"You know, I am a person who loves order, and murder is not condemned by my conscience, because I firmly believe that this is the only way to prevent all future confusion of ups and downs.\"

With the general's gestures, the soldiers quickly escorted the shameful man. Looking around at the deserted barracks, the iconic sideburns of Hanau shuddered, and the wax oil on the beard shone in the sun. .

This is a good start and an irreversible step. After taking this step, the general will never retreat. In case of failure, he will die without a burial place, which can be compared with the benefits obtained after the success of the plan. The degree of risk is nothing.

\"Which are born as kings. Which are born as aristocrats, and which are born as slaves, this is God’s will, can’t be changed by human beings, nor is it shaken by every businessman.\"

The crown prince's declaration came to mind again. With longing and excitement, the general took his soldiers into the Buda city, and the hustle, cry, and roar echoed in the ancient city, and they did not stop until late at night.

\"You said what medal should we award to His Royal Highness Prince?\"

Passing the report to Brunn Hill, Li Lin smiled and asked:

\"How about the quality service medal? Anyway, it’s gold-plated, the ‘enamel shop owner’ should like it very much.\"

As we all know, the crown prince has a hobby similar to the dragon race-like colorful flowers, shiny things, such as gems, rings, necklaces, ancient costumes, especially the collection of military uniforms and medals.

Although he did not honor himself like Comrade Brezhnev, the famous medal control, Prince Louis has always collected military uniforms and uniforms, among which there are more than 400 military uniforms, not only Charlemagne and territorial ones. Military uniforms, and there are military uniforms sent by countries and territories such as Ymir, Serres, Castile, Lapland, and the matching, a large number of medals, these medals-use his mother In the words-Prince Edward \"dressed like an enamel shop owner\". Since then, Prince Edward\"enamel shop owner\" nickname has spread.

In addition to this more formal nickname, the crown prince also enjoys nicknames such as \" evil young\", \"monster\", but there is a nickname because it is limited to the spread among elves, which is less mainstream, but more appropriate And also more mean.

\"It is true that His Highness Peacock will be very happy.\"

Brenhill smiled narrowly, and said in a harsh tone.

Peacock-This is the nickname given by the elves to the crown prince. It comes from a statement in the evaluation report of the Prince by the Stasi intelligence analysts: \"...Sometimes the purpose of his work is unknown, the motivation is worrying, sometimes he The purpose is clear, but the means are not thoughtful. This person is a wizard and has a personality, but he will never turn around, like a hole bird, wearing a gorgeous tail posing as a peacock.\"

Judging from Prince Wang's series of performances, he really lived up to this nickname. As soon as he saw a rare opportunity, this \"Peacock\" could not wait to prepare to play his role on the world stage.

The crown prince's first target was the crown of Ostoria and St. Eastman. The reason is quite good. The separation tendency of these two lands has always been stronger than that of other places, although now relying on With the improvement of the agricultural level of overseas colonies and their own countries, the demand for these two places has fallen a lot, but they really want to go out independently, which has been a heavy blow to the reputation, prestige, and national strength of Charlemagne. How to contain the separatist forces All are important topics in Charlemagne's internal affairs.

The current jihad provides an excellent opportunity.Two outstanding youths in the two territories, money, and resources are constantly invested in the flesh and blood mill of the Riga fortress. As the most capable generation of youth falls on the land of the Principality, at least 20 In two years, these two territories will have no room for division.

For Charlemagne, this is a good thing, and at least one generation will benefit from it. But Prince Louis is not satisfied with this, he does not want two subjective surrenders, but to fully integrate them into Charlemagne’s ruling system. While the main military forces in the territories were concentrated in the north and the rear was unprepared, he sent troops to the two places and began to implement military control.

\"It’s really hard for him to tear up the ancient covenant... This kind of self-sucking behavior can’t be done by anyone, of course, it’s not a big deal for Prince Wang, the treaty is not just signed. It’s just paper, it’s sacred and inviolable when you are willing to obey, and it is the same as toilet paper when you don’t. Anyway, similar things have been done once, and it’s no big deal to do it again.\"

Li lin looked with a happy expression on the chin with overlapping hands.[,! ] The cover of the report.

At this time, just put on a cheerful expression.

Politicians are all liars, for them to tear up treaties and lie is a necessary professional skills, as long as they can get benefits, they do not mind this behavior. But this kind of thing must be carried out carefully, any veteran politician No one will jump out and do it silly.

After all, the credit limit is limited, and overdraft credit will only bring bad results. Considering the terrible consequences of the credit deficit, even if the cardinal has always wanted to tear up the covenant that gives the two territories a certain degree of autonomy, but out of cleverness and a high degree of self-control, he The elderly haven't done anything.

However, the crown prince jumped out, tearing up the treaty signed by Charlemagne with impunity, and dried it twice in one breath.

——Good job!

Brenhill almost couldn't hold back the excitement, almost jumping and cheering.

This near-shameless behavior will pave the way for Charlemagne's demise. From the blue shirt, wearing the triangle cap, Charlemagne Army stationed in Ostoria and St. Eastman's Crown From the moment of this, the country really started to advance towards the abyss of irreversible loss, and at the same time the entire human camp will also fall apart. Although it still takes time, no one can stop this irreversible process.

This is what the Elf camp has been expecting.Early, as early as a few decades, hundreds of years ago, the elves expected to see this scene, and now, this little wish is closer to fulfillment.

Thank you, His Royal Highness Prince Louis.
