The news of the defeat at the Battle of Boda quickly spread to the ears of all parties. There is no doubt that the Crown Prince of Erfurt was the last person to hear the news. In order to keep the crown of the Neville family, he went to great lengths He worked hard, tried every means to deal with the internal vassals with evil intentions and the enemies in the north, and tried his best to win over allies to raise military expenses. He already had gray hair when he was only in his 30s.

Finally, taking advantage of King Cleese IV's short spell, he spent all his money to gather a large army, and even tied old Tibes, an old fox, to his chariot through marriage, hoping to regain the lost territory. At least the Cecilia people should give up the idea of ​​replacing the throne of the Neville family with puppets, but they lost all this capital in just two battles.

The moment the news reached Erfurt, the Crown Prince wished that he would suddenly become deaf, at least he would not have to hear the bad news that he would lose to Kress IV again.

Looking back at the beginning of the war, Marquis Latina confidently stated that when Claes IV received Estilia's attack, he had already wiped out the lost territory in the north, captured Duke Mann and sent him to Erfurt. The crown prince vented his anger, leaving the Cecilia people to roll back to the island in despair. The result was that the envoy told them that the army was easily defeated by Cleese IV, and the next step was to attack Erfurt. Let him immediately prepare to defend the capital.

It doesn't matter if Cassian is lost. It was given up more than ten years ago anyway, but Erfurt cannot be given up. Since the first Emperor Alpheus of the Third Kingdom, every king has been crowned here. If Erfurt is lost, Erford, which means that the crown prince has lost the legitimacy of inheriting the throne in the future.

All the troops under the Crown Prince were handed over to the Marquis of Latina. Now, except for a few hundred royal guards, he could not raise a single soldier. As a result, the Marquis of Latina now told him, "I'm sorry, I lost all your troops." Please gather another force to guard Erfurt."

The crown prince was about to cry without tears. Even if he knew that Cleese IV would soon bring troops to deal with him, he could do nothing because the huge Kingdom of Estilia now had no troops to send in the north.

Old Tibes also lost miserably, but the losses were relatively minor. At least most of the principality's cavalry troops withdrew from the battlefield in time.The old fox who had suffered so much didn't need to think about it and would not easily sacrifice his life for the Neville family again, especially if he was asked to go south to defend Erfurt.

There are still troops from the southern territories that are slowly gathering and coming over, but it takes time, but at this time they lost all their troops. By the time the troops from the south arrive, I'm afraid Erfurt will have been lost.

After losing all the army and the capital, what will the Crown Prince do to continue fighting with Kress IV? I'm afraid he will be forced to sign another contract that is even more humiliating than the one he signed after the Second Ethiopian War. There are difficulties in both peace and treaty.

After all, what matters at the negotiation table is who has the bigger fist and who can speak louder. If the Crown Prince wants to wipe his tears then, he may have to ask for permission from Kress IV.

Fortunately, the Marquis of Latina was able to deal with his lord and told him that his troops had not been completely lost. Manvat still had 8000 men who could be recalled immediately to help defend Erfurt. He now had less than [-] troops. He would arrive as soon as possible, which gave the Crown Prince more or less confidence to defend Erfurt.

Hearing that he still had some capital left, the crown prince immediately cheered up and had no time to be sad now.Assign your cronies to leave the city immediately, and go to Marquis Latina one by one. It is best to bring back Old Tibes' troops and continue to let the Principality of Zeon side with the royal family. No matter what conditions the other party offers, he can consider it. Anyway, Old Thebes cannot yet threaten his succession to the throne.One goes to recall Manwat's troops, and the most important thing is to strengthen Erfurt's defense first.Another one went to the south to urge the troops gathering in the southern king's territory to hurry up and go north to defend their king.

In addition to a series of remedial operations, the Crown Prince also specially called in the royal family manager and asked how much money was left in the treasury. The king’s birthday will be in a few days. This is a top priority and must be celebrated grandly. At least Let the world know that the Neville family is still the crown holder of Estilia and the supreme ruler of the white elves.

The last time he celebrated the king's birthday, Enver VI was not as ignorant as he is now, but he basically handed over power to the crown prince, so the crown prince had arranged such a thing. During that birthday celebration, the crown prince It cost more than 11 gold coins. If this money is used to hire an army to fight for him, then the crown prince will be able to easily recruit an army of 8 people immediately without worrying that no one will do it for him. Defend Erfurt.

Now even when the Neville family is in crisis, the Crown Prince has never thought of saving money in this regard.

What is a king? If he does not live an extravagant and extravagant life, which is intimidating to everyone, how can he let his subjects know the majesty of the king?

His grandfather was captured by the Cecilia, and the lion demanded a ransom fee of 100 million gold coins. Enver V was still very unhappy, feeling that his worth was underestimated by these human bumpkins, and refused to return to his country, and finally died in There, on the contrary, he received unanimous praise from nobles at home and abroad, who believed that he had not insulted the king's style.

If it were Flynn, he would probably not be able to figure out this strange logic even if he tried hard.

Faced with the Crown Prince's inquiry, the royal steward said that because of the previous efforts to raise money to welcome Old Tibes's daughter, plus military expenses, royal daily expenses, rewards to nobles, etc., there are currently about five dollars left in the treasury. Thirty thousand gold coins may not be able to hold a glorious birthday celebration for His Majesty the King.

However, he vowed that as long as the troops from the southern territories brought the tribute money that had been delayed due to the war when they went north, the national treasury would immediately have a sum of 80 to [-] gold coins, which could solve the current financial dilemma. .

As the royal family of Estilia, the Neville family could have an annual income of around 1000 to 500 yuan in its heyday. Despite the failure of two wars and the fall of large tracts of land in the north, the royal family's income was only a loss. After earning three to four million gold coins, and counting other losses caused by the impact of the war, it is not a problem to maintain an income of eighty-nine million gold coins a year, so the crown prince is not particularly worried about the current embarrassment.

But the prince didn't know that there was a situation called good fortune and misfortune never come alone.

The envoy sent to the south returned before leaving the city, because an envoy from a southern noble loyal to the Neville family arrived and brought bad news about the southern kingdom.

Berni, the steward assigned by the royal family to manage the entire Southern Kingdom, had launched a rebellion two months ago, announcing that he had accepted the title of Marquis of Montbéliard appointed by Claes IV, and demanded that all the people gathered in the Southern Kingdom The noble army accepted his command and paid allegiance to the future true king of Estilia, Duke Mann.

Due to Berni's sudden attack, most of the southern nobles who refused to follow Berni's rebellion were wiped out in one fell swoop, and the few who managed to escape had no choice but to return to their fiefdoms to seek self-protection.At present, most of the southern royal territories have been plunged into melee. Not to mention going north to support the royal family, the royal family also needs to find a way to send troops to suppress the rebellion.

The crown prince who received the news could no longer hold on and fainted.Medieval White Elf Story
