Chapter 644 Declaration of War on Mecca

After nearly 15 days of competition, the final champion is likely to come from Constantinople and Bukuryesti. The performance of these two teams is the best.

In this last game, eight teams will have the final contest. The emperor and the queen also attended this last game.

After paying tribute to the emperor, the referee blew the horn, and eight racing cars rushed out. The whole stadium suddenly erupted in thunderous cheers.

The impatient horses raised their hooves, the wheels spun, and the carriages rumbled forward. The eight fully equipped drivers held the reins tightly with one hand and raised the whip with the other hand, shouting loudly and whipping the horses. The reason why they let the horses run hard at the beginning was mainly to grab a good position.

The horses neighed and the wheels rolled, as if a gust of wind swept through. The cheers of the audience were deafening, inspiring the drivers to fight for the first place. The contestant from Constantinople took the lead, his carriage galloped like lightning, and the other contestants followed closely.

Just as the contestant from Constantinople was about to cross the finish line, an accident happened. A black bird suddenly rushed towards his horse, and the horse was startled and raised its front hooves high. The contestant from Constantinople tried to control the reins, but still made the carriage deviate from the track. This sudden change caught the contestants behind by surprise. Some hurriedly tightened the reins to slow down, and some could not dodge and hit the fence on the side of the road.

However, the contestant from Mircea Castle seized this opportunity. He drove the carriage flexibly around the chaotic scene and rushed to the finish line at lightning speed. Just as he was about to cross the finish line, a strange feather floated down from the sky and gently landed on his carriage. The horse seemed to be greatly encouraged, and its speed suddenly increased, and it crossed the finish line in an instant. The audience was stunned at first, and then burst into thunderous applause and cheers. The contestants of Mircea Castle stood on the carriage, raised their hands to accept the congratulations of the crowd. And the mysterious feather slowly disappeared in the breeze! As if it was just to witness this glorious moment.

The final winner was Mircea Castle, which surprised many people. They never thought that a new city could win the championship. But the people of Mircea Castle enjoyed this honor and had to continue to work hard in the future.

That night, the celebration banquet held in the palace was the last arrangement of the competition. Romania made it particularly grand, not only inviting all participating teams to attend the meeting, but also inviting envoys from all friendly countries participating in the Games.

His Majesty the Emperor personally presided over the banquet, and the atmosphere was quite warm.

Peter communicated with his in-laws, the Duke of Bourbon, and the Duchess teased the little grandson in her daughter's arms. Sigismund talked with Vlad, and he promoted him to king as a condition to make him recognize his status.

At the end of the banquet, Peter announced one thing: in view of the success of this competition, the empire will hold a competition every four years in the future, and other events will be added. As for the family members, they will go to the small meeting room tomorrow to announce an important matter.

Important matters... They returned to their accommodation with all kinds of speculations, and some people did not even sleep well all night.

At the meeting on the second day, Peter also attended in person and presided over the meeting. In addition to the family members, the Duke of Bourbon also joined the meeting, which was specially authorized by the emperor.

Facing all the members gathered together, he solemnly proposed to declare war on Mecca and form a coalition to attack, which really surprised all the participants. No one expected that Romania would fight another war just after the war ended.

At the same time, Peter also proposed that as long as all countries send troops to form a coalition, Romania will share the spoils with it after each victory in the battle, and after defeating Mecca, it will jointly develop the African continent according to the contribution of each allied in the entire war.

As we all know, the Pope came to the Crusades several times not only to fight against pagans, but also for spices and gold in the East. Now, Romania will naturally not give up what he has, but the vast African interior may have some different specialties.

Of course, this is purely voluntary, but seeing that everyone is very enthusiastic, it seems that there is no problem.

A few days later, the news that Romania declared war on Mecca spread throughout the kingdom, and the enthusiasm of the people, which had not yet completely faded because of the successful hosting of the empire, was rekindled. The participating armies will be blessed by the Patriarch. They are going to attack the lair of pagans directly, and they must not lose face.

While the people were discussing this imperial event in the streets and alleys of various towns, Peter summoned Mason in his office.

"Did you watch this sports meeting?"

"I watched part of it, because there were too many government affairs, so I didn't watch it all."

"How do you feel?"

"Very good, the athletes tried their best to win applause. During this period, many people have poured into Constantinople, and many shops have made money. This year's tax revenue can be increased a lot."

"That's good, that's good!" Peter smiled, "Soon our two families will become relatives, and you don't have to be so tired."

Mason never thought that his majesty's son actually liked his daughter. After all, the girl was born to love sailing, and she said that she wanted to be the first female captain. It was good that she had this intention, but she still had to find a good family to marry, otherwise she would have to go to a monastery.

But now he didn't have to worry, it was good enough for his family to marry into the royal family, and Theodore was also very interested in sailing, so he believed that the two of them could live together.

"Your Majesty, you asked me here this time, you didn't just want to chat with me, did you?" Mason asked calmly.

In Yiyi's correct version!

"You, I want to chat with you, is that not okay?

Forget it, let's talk about business. I think you also know that the empire and the pagans are at war. Since it is a war, it is inevitable to spend money. The pressure on your Ministry of Finance is great."

For this, Mason assured Peter: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, we will do everything we can to maintain operations and will never let the army lack money."
