Chapter 923

Because many people didn't really want to integrate into the Yongye army leader from the very beginning.

Even with the rapid development of the Yongye army leader over the years, he has achieved achievements that have attracted worldwide attention.

But many people still choose to cover their eyes and ears, turn a blind eye to the changes outside, and turn a deaf ear to the sounds outside.

Still immersed in the idea that the Byron Alliance is the center and ruler of the entire Arshan continent, and the Lancelot royal family is the most essential idea.

This kind of thinking was most severe in the plains of Asia Minor under the rule of the royal family of Lancelot.

This kind of inertial thinking is so deeply ingrained.

Even when the Lancelot royal family has been torn apart and dominated by the Holy See of Saint Ether, it has not been reversed, and many people have not really seen the facts clearly.

Among the old ministers who followed Sophilia, many people regarded the Yongye Army Commander as a seesaw, a strategic retreat stronghold, where they cultivated their health, accumulated strength, and waited for the day to spy on the entire Lancelot again. The royal family, and even the entire Byron Union.

This kind of thinking was revived after Sophie Liya took up the important task of reviving the broken line of defense.

They regrouped to Sophilia's side, advised her, and charged forward for her.

The sudden death of King Laurie made this idea boil and sublimate even more.

There was no need for Sophilia to hint anything, many people ran around spontaneously and got busy.

It's just that they have been away from the political center of the Byron Alliance for too long, and their reaction speed is simply not as good as that of the Holy See of Saint Ether, who have always been in the center of power.

When they just reacted here.

In order to stabilize itself, the new royal court has already made a series of actions.

Queen Enid, the wife of King Laurie, announced that she was five months pregnant, and that what she conceived was the real first heir to the Lancelot royal family. Before the child was successfully born, she would shoulder the rule The important task of the royal family of Lancelot.

And appointed King Laurie's uncle, Grand Duke Buck, as the regent to manage it.

Then Pope St. George of the Holy See of Saint Ether personally went to Valesta, the capital of the kingdom, to perform an unprecedented blessing. Supporting her, she also blessed the child in Queen Enid's womb, calling him the Child of Destiny, who will be born with the sacred mission of saving the future of mankind.

According to the memories of many believers who participated in this blessing event, when St. George blessed the unborn child of Queen Enid, visions abounded.

They witnessed the coming of heaven with their own eyes, countless angels sang and danced around Queen Enid, and the melodious sacred music echoed in the ears of all the citizens.

All the holy rays of light were injected into the child in Queen Enid's womb at the same time.

From that moment on, countless citizens firmly believed that the child in Queen Enid's womb was not only their future king, but also born according to the will of the true God, to escape their suffering.

There are countless people who have been transformed into devout believers of the Holy See of Ether.

Although the three core strengths that make up the new royal court expressed their opinions one after another.

However, there are still many lords of the Lancelot royal family who have questioned this matter, especially the appointment of Duke Buck as the regent, which has met with fierce backlash.

In the past thirty years, although the Lancelot royal family spent four-fifths of the time, the regent was in power.

However, the two regents were both from the Lancelot royal family, and the two had a close blood relationship. Even if they had selfish intentions, they were nothing more than forming a party for personal gain and restraining power.

Even if the worst result occurs, after it is replaced.

For many people, it's not unacceptable.

After all, the blood did not flow sideways, and the blood of the Lancelot royal family was still circulating.

Grand Duke Buck is different. He is the Grand Duke of the Kingsley family. He has two powers in one body. Not to mention that he is too big and scary. Who knows if he will use the interests of the Lancelot royal family to nourish himself? The Kingsley family?

Under such circumstances, there was a voice within the royal family of Lancelot—to invite Princess Sophilia, the former regent of the royal family of Lancelot, to serve as regent again.

Whether it is Princess Sophilia's credibility during her governance, or her clean handing after King Laurie became an adult, it is obvious to all.

Especially the latter has won her the respect of countless people.

It is not something ordinary people can do to retreat bravely, at least many people who have tasted the taste of power cannot do it.

But as soon as this kind of voice was raised, it was blown up by a blockbuster thrown by the new royal court.

The royal family of Lancelot announced the cause of King Laurie's sudden death. He fell from a high altitude while riding a griffin and fell to his death.

As for whether it was a careless mistake? Or encountered an attack at a high altitude and fell?

The new royal court has not been announced to the outside world.

But this is enough, enough to arouse the imagination of countless people.

Where did King Lowry's griffin come from?

The leader of Yongye.

Who is in control of absolute air supremacy now?

The leader of Yongye.

Who can pose a threat to the griffin in the sky?

The leader of Yongye.

If King Laurie died suddenly, who would benefit the most?

The leader of Yongye.

To be more precise, Sophie Liya who has already controlled the power of the Yongye army.

Under such circumstances, even Sean, who had been in a coma for a long time, was picked out and used against Sophie Liya.

Many conspiracy theory supporters linked these two things and all pointed their finger at Sophie Liya, thinking that in order to gain power, she frantically murdered her closest relatives.

Under the publicity of newcomers, Sophie Liya has become synonymous with cruel and vicious women in the entire Arshan continent.

black widow.

Venomous spider.

Widowmaker.

A series of stigma, all hang on her head.

Because it was through soul fusion, Sean was able to feel more personally how difficult Sophie Liya's situation was and how depressed he was.

The husband fell into a coma for a long time, and his life and death were uncertain.

The Yong Ye army is facing strong enemies externally, and the legitimacy of her rule is questioned internally.

Not to mention the sudden death of the younger brother who was brought up by him alone, he was also slandered as the mastermind behind the scenes. The real murderer was at large and even benefited from it.

There is still a fresh little life conceived in her belly.

If it was an ordinary woman, I'm afraid she would have been crushed by the heavy pressure.

But Sophie Liya won't, she will only become more frustrated and courageous, and the pressure will only give her greater motivation to resist.

Don't forget who she is.

She was brought up by Grand Duke Cedric, the God of War of Strachey, and the unyielding blood of the Strachey family flowed in her body.

She was the iron princess who defeated the former Lancelot royal family regent at the age of fifteen, cut off the flesh and blood from the Holy See of Saint Ether, and was in charge of the military and political power of the Lancelot royal family for sixteen years.

Anyone who has a deep understanding of Princess Sophie Liya knows.

King Lowry's death, if only to lift the last shackles on the lioness.

After getting rid of the scruples of sibling rivalry, the first decision Sophilia made was to strengthen and improve the fog isolation zone that Sean had temporarily established in order to annex the Hiri Winter Division of the Theodin Empire, and it has been extended all the way. Go to the Jacob River and cut most of the core area of ​​the Byron Union into two.

And relying on this isolation zone, build a fortress city and carry out defensive garrisons.

The result of doing so is obvious.

The entire Man Yu army leader, as well as the Duanmai Grassland to the east of Duanmai Blood Castle, will be under her control.

The remaining strength of Grand Duke Patraim was all exiled.

Having said that, the past ten years of Grand Duke Patlem's rule under the leadership of the Manyu army had already exhausted the last trace of vitality in this land, and the essence was concentrated on Angel Bena, and there was not much left. strength.

The Byron League was completely torn in two.

The Eternal Night Army under the rule of Sophilia occupied one-third of the territory of the Duanmai Grassland, one-fourth of the territory of the Asia Minor Plain, the entire territory of the Manyu Army, the entire Andes Mountains, and the entire Donau Plain. and the entire Kentana Icefield.

The new royal court dominated by the Holy See of Saint Ether occupies two-thirds of the territory of Duanmai Grassland, the entire territory of Gemini South Island, three-quarters of the territory of Asia Minor Plain, the entire territory of Carthus Army and the entire territory of Huayu Plateau.

This situation led to a sharp deterioration in the relationship between the two parties.

The sharpness of the conflict even surpassed that between the new royal court, Theodin Empire and the Witches' Secret Society.

The main force of the Holy See's new army, which had just won a brilliant victory, began to move towards the border with the Yongye Army.

The army that Sophilia had assembled to fight against Hairi Dongbu did not disband on the spot. Instead, equipment was continuously brought in from the Eternal Night Army, and the armed forces were further changed. With the Knights of the Rose as the core, they formed the Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth Army led by the Yong Ye Army.

Defending the Eastern Front of the Broken Pulse Line and the Mist Line of Defense.

So far, although there has been no large-scale war between the two sides, small-scale conflicts have never stopped, especially along the Jacob River.

Control of the waters of the Jacob River is the focus of contention between the two sides.

After all, the two core capitals of the New Royal Court, Vallesta and St. Eden, are both located in the lower reaches of the Jacob River.

Once the warship led by the Yongye Army goes down the river, it will pose a direct threat to the two.

Not to mention business, even if a sampan floats down from the upper reaches, the New Wangting will be highly nervous.

It can be said that the business and trade of the leader of the Yongye Army in the Byron Alliance has been devastated. Only the semi-secret trade with the Huayu Plateau has been greatly restricted. At least for sensitive materials such as food, there is no way. bulk trade.

This is also the reason why Sean saw the assembly line of ships and the prosperity of maritime trade in the East China Sea on the Donau River.

The severe business situation in the Arshan Continent made Yong Ye's army leader spend nearly 20 years to build up a huge team of merchants facing the crisis of unemployment.

They have already tasted the sweetness from predatory foreign trade, and it is impossible to return to the previous kind of small business.

The discovery of the East African Islands allowed them to discover new business opportunities, and it was inevitable to divert their attention to this.

As for not having enough experience in merchant shipping and maritime trade.

For a group with deep pockets, this is nothing at all.

Even if there is no policy, they will insist on it for the benefit of the future, not to mention that for the future development, the Yong Ye Army will inevitably introduce support policies in this area, build their own assembly line shipyard, and solve more and more problems in the future. The problem of using ships.

If there is a slight policy tilt in the territory, a large amount of working capital will be injected, and an unimaginable shipbuilding assembly line will be built in just a few years.

Compared with conventional wars, what is more intense is the war of public opinion between the two sides.

Under the guidance and influence of Xiao En, the leader of the Yongye Army has always paid great attention to this aspect.

And the Holy See of Saint Ether, an important part of the new royal family, also started from this - faith can also be regarded as a part of public opinion, and both sides are controlling the thoughts of ordinary people.

On the side of the new royal court, they continued to demonize Sophilia, denounced her as a traitor, and led the barbarians in Andis to try to steal the ruling right of the Byron Alliance.

The most important charge was, of course, being in cahoots with the leader of the Yong Ye Army, who planned to murder King Laurie ten years ago.

The leader of the Eternal Night Army denounced the Holy See of Saint Ether, using faith to fool the world, trying to replace the royal power with theocracy, and stealing the supremacy of the Lancelot royal family over the Byron Alliance.

And they questioned the story of King Laurie they announced. They were trying to divert the public's attention and cover up the terrifying conspiracy behind it.

Anyway, each has its own set of rhetoric.

Sophilia herself firmly believed that the death of her younger brother King Laurie was not an accident, but was planned by St. George and Queen Enid of the Holy See of Saint Ether.

According to their secret investigations, in the war with the Theodin Empire and the Witches' Conclave, there have been great differences between King Laurie and Pope St. George.

The biggest difference is in military power.

King Laurie thought that the Holy See of Saint Ether's penetration of military power was too serious, and he had to make concessions. This kind of thing cannot be completely handed over to the divine power, and it is more appropriate for him as the king to control it.

How could the Holy See of Saint Ether, who had tasted the delicacy of power, let it go.

A few months before King Laurie's accident, the two sides had just had a fierce dispute over this matter. It is said that King Laurie was planning to draft a restrictive bill to limit the unscrupulous expansion of the Holy See of Ether.

King Laurie used to be beneficial to the development of the Holy See of Ether, and the Holy See of Ether naturally recognized and supported him from top to bottom.

Now that this puppet has awakened self-awareness and becomes a stumbling block to their further development, it is only natural that they will be kicked away without hesitation.

Especially when Queen Enid has confirmed that she is pregnant, this decision is not difficult to make.

After all, what the Holy See needs is a well-known reason.

Compared with a puppet like King Laurie who has begun to lose control, an unborn fetus is undoubtedly a better choice.

As soon as King Lowry died, the so-called bills proposed by him naturally disappeared.

What's even more wonderful is that this baby will be shrouded in the holy light of the Holy See from the moment it is born, and it will inevitably become an extremely devout believer.

According to the current development trend of the Holy See of Saint Ether, it is still a question of whether the Lancelot royal family will still be there when this baby really becomes an adult.
