Chapter 266 116 A Monarch with Great Talent and Vision

Chapter 266 -116- A monarch with great talent and strategy

After learning from Viscount Remigio why he didn't send troops, Charlotte cancelled the remote communication.

In fact, there was no way to communicate for too long. This communication crystal was just a fake one she made with the help of the blood power and the blessing of God, referring to the communication crystal seized from Agnes. It couldn't be used for too long.

However, the information she got was enough.

"So... the new military chief, under the promotion of the third prince, proposed to the king to strengthen the management of the army, and the king who wanted to centralize power just followed the trend and issued a ban..."

Recalling the intelligence she had just obtained, Charlotte fell into thought.

The timing of the military order was so clever that it was hard for Charlotte not to think that it was aimed at herself.

Although Viscount Remigio is a member of the Second Prince's party and will definitely not say good things about the Third Prince when facing her, Charlotte is very clear that the Third Prince, who became the co-ruling Duke of Borde through his marriage with Eleanor, does covet Castel.

The assassination on Charlotte's return journey is proof of this, and the biggest witness, Agnes, is still cleaning the toilet in the Earl's Mansion.

Castel is too rich, and the Castel Mithril Mine is an important strategic resource. For a prince who wants to compete for the right to inherit the throne, the attraction is too great.

"It is said that Louis V ended the eighty-year-long Star-Moon War. He has a very high prestige in the Crescent Kingdom and can be regarded as one of the most capable and strategic monarchs in the Crescent Kingdom for hundreds of years. However... the succession of the next generation is definitely a huge hidden danger."

"It's a bit strange. Various data show that the current King Louis V is both wise and brave. He is definitely not easy to fool. Can't he see the little tricks of the third prince?"

Sitting at the desk, looking through the relevant information of the Crescent Royal Family, Charlotte frowned slightly.

In addition, the experience of Louis V, the current King of the Crescent Kingdom, is definitely legendary.

He was originally the second heir to the throne of the Crescent Kingdom. He succeeded to the throne because his elder brother "Bold Philip", who was the previous king, died unexpectedly in the Star-Moon War.

When he succeeded to the throne, he was only 13 years old.

At that time, the Crescent Kingdom had been defeated by the attack of the Falling Star Kingdom. Even the capital was broken, and less than one-seventh of the territory was lost. The nobles were alienated and the people were in chaos.

Henry, the king of the Falling Star, was even crowned as the new king of the Crescent Moon by the chief priest in the capital of the Crescent Moon. For a time, there were two kings in the entire Crescent Moon Kingdom.

But Louis V turned the tide and showed great political and military talents at a young age.

He first took advantage of the conflicts between the nobles to form alliances and temporarily unified the power of the nobles. He also took advantage of the conflicts between the Kingdom of the Falling Star and the Grand Duchy of the North to gain the support of the Grand Duchy of the North.

Then he prepared his coffin and led the coalition composed of noble private soldiers and northern mercenaries. In the Battle of the Moon Guard, with a force of 1 to 10, he defeated the army of the Kingdom of the Falling Star, resisted the unstoppable attack of the Kingdom of the Falling Star, and recaptured the capital and part of the territory.

And he himself showed amazing extraordinary talent. He ascended to the Blazing Sun when he was less than 15 years old and became the youngest Blazing Sun strongman in the entire Miria human world.

Since then, the Star-Moon Battle has fallen into a long period of anxiety.

With wisdom and strategy, Louis V fought back and forth with the Kingdom of Fallen Star, relying on the less than one-fifth of the remaining land area.

As time went on, he gradually seized the initiative in the war and began to counterattack with fewer troops. In the late stage of the war, he even had the upper hand.

If it had not been for the unexpected defeat in the first Roman War, Louis V would have driven the forces of the Kingdom of Fallen Star out of the continent.

But even so, he also took back all the legal territories of the Kingdom of Crescent Moon except the Principality of Roman, and the territory was even larger than before the Star-Moon War.

After so many years, the Kingdom of Crescent Moon has long come out of the pain of the war, and its national strength has surpassed that of Fallen Star.

If the Kingdom of Fallen Star and the West Yunite Empire had not formed an alliance against the Crescent Moon, Louis V would probably have launched a war and taken back the last Principality of Roman.

And is it possible that such a wise and capable monarch can't see the little tricks of his own offspring?

Infiltrating and assassinating nobles, seizing private territories and extraordinary resources, and strengthening one's own strength... For any monarch in power, this is a taboo, right?

Or, the behavior of the third prince was also tacitly approved by Louis V?

The eldest prince, who was regarded as the heir by Louis V, died in the First Roman War. As the current heir, the second prince, who was very close to the church, had a bad relationship with him. Could it be that... this monarch wanted to bypass the law of primogeniture and pass the throne to the third prince?

So, he tacitly allowed him to use various means to strengthen his power?

Thinking of this, Charlotte frowned even more deeply.

After all, she was only an earl, and her lord was still Bolder so far. As for higher-level information, she knew very little.

But judging from the reaction of Viscount Remigio, the other party did not show much anxiety and worry. If the king wanted to change the heir, the nobles who were loyal to the second prince would have been in chaos long ago.

Charlotte couldn't figure it out.

However, although she couldn't figure it out, if she analyzed her own rebellion from the perspective of the entire kingdom beyond the Earldom of Castel, it would be enough for her to see many problems clearly.

At least, she has determined that her real enemy in this rebellion is not the Legris family, but most likely the Third Prince. At the same time, she will not be able to get the support of any Crescent Lords when facing the rebellion.

And the reason why the rebels dared to launch a rebellion at this time is probably because they got the support of the Third Prince.

Charlotte's judgment was soon confirmed.

One day after she contacted Viscount Remigio, Sebastian, who was sent by her to investigate the Earldom of Tulip, returned.

"Master, the situation is probably a bit serious. The fortress of the Earl of Tulip has been under military control for half a month, and civilians are prohibited from approaching. Not only that... As you can see, the number of cargo ships traveling to and from the port of the Earl of Tulip during this period is three times more than usual."

"I sneaked into one of the cargo ships and conducted an investigation. I found a large amount of military supplies on the ship, including food supplies, equipment and various extraordinary materials. There are even many extraordinary people who have entered the order on the ship!"

"The Bolde family, or the third prince of the Crescent Moon... I'm afraid they will really take advantage of this rebellion to attack us!"

Sebastian said solemnly.
