Chapter three hundred and eighty side pressure(1/2)
He does have a reason to be proud. Now it is not just a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity before him, but also a sense of superiority that can suppress one of his biggest competitors.
St. George went to the Manyu Army Corps himself, either to support a great believer to come to power, and then to take down the faith of a whole army Corps through him, thereby paving the steps to the next pope.
As a result, I was not embarrassed or embarrassed. I was deeply trapped in the quagmire of war and could not get out. I was even called to scold me by Pope Delt. Now I don’t know where I have been sent to.
And heinoko only needs to gently pluck the political strings at the right time, and the opportunity will be delivered to the door obediently.
The significance of taking down the Carter Army is far above the Manyu Army.
Cardinal Inoko, who was in high spirits, made an exception to fill his wine glass again, and said with a little drunkenness: "Treat yourself, Your Excellency Bishop Inoko Note."
At this time, when the wine is not drunk, everyone is drunk.
Watching Cardinal Inoko's carriage leave, Grand Duke Buck's slightly humble waist straightened bit by bit, his smile was also restrained, and his body was filled with a breath of no one to enter.
Half a year ago, even if Pope Delte, the Holy See, could not let his head be lowered at all.
Now, he had to bow down to a cardinal who only had one diocese in charge.
It was something Grand Duke Buck would never have dreamed of in his dreams.
He, Buck Kingsley, the man who claimed to be the most capable grand duke in the history of the Kingsley family, would lead the Kingsley family to an unprecedented peak, how could he fall to this point?
When he dreamed at midnight, he was always thinking about this question.
The beginning of all nightmares seems to start with peeping into the swamp of despair and confronting the Eternal Night Army leader.
But do you have to ask him if he regrets it?
He did not regret the decision he made, because what he did was to bring the Kingsley family to new glory, which was his responsibility as the patriarch of the Kingsley family.
The only thing he regretted was that he underestimated the Yongye Army Leader and Shawn.
If he was asked to reselect once, he would do his best from the beginning.
But there is no if and no medicine for regret in this world.
The only thing he can do now is to do his best to resolve the crisis in front of the Kingsley family. What is his dignity and face?
"Your Majesty, doing this is undoubtedly a matter of being a slut with the tiger. The intervention of the Holy See will only make the situation more complicated and may not achieve excellent results. Even if this incident is solved, the parasitic vine of the Holy See will be deeply rooted in our territory, just like they did to the Lancelot royal family, which makes them breathless." Qian Ning, the number one think tank of the Kingsley family, had unconcealed concerns on his face.
He did not agree with the cooperation between Grand Duke Buck and the Holy Astrology.
In his eyes, the threat from the Holy See was far above the Eternal Night Army Leader.
No matter how high the Yongye Army asks for a price, it will be a one-time deal. After the Kingsley family’s Eastern Army is taken back, there is no need to look at their faces anymore, and some agreements can even be torn up with appropriate opportunities.
But it is different to have a relationship with the Holy See.
It is equivalent to putting a parasite on yourself that can eat meat and suck blood. At first glance, the damage is not great. As time goes by, the parasite continues to reproduce, and the damage it brings will become greater and greater.
Looking at the current Lancelot royal family, you will know that it occupies the richest territory in the continent, has the largest population, and has the strongest military support, so they can only let the Byron League be divided.
The Holy See plays an important role in it. In addition to subjective influence, objectively they also divided the finances and force of the Lancelot royal family.
Grand Duke Buck's face changed several times, and finally he couldn't help but growled: "I don't understand this principle? But if I don't overcome the difficulties in the present, how can I talk about the future? Others don't know the situation of the Kingsley family, are you still not clear? Did that bastard Sean raise the conditions? Did the conditions proposed by people? Land, equipment, and finance, this was a three-killing knife on the Kingsley family. The knife was fatal. If I really agreed, the Kingsley family would not only be squeezed into juice, but also give them a slave for more than ten years, and there was no chance to turn things around."
At the end of the day, Grand Duke Buck's teeth were grinding.
After two weeks of entanglement and negotiation, the conditions for the Yongye Army Leader finally changed. However, it was not a reduction, but the war compensation for the third article 80 million royal gold coins was changed to a ten-year installment payment, and various materials were allowed to be offset at a discount.
This article seems to be fully considered by the Kingsley family, so that they do not have that much financial pressure.
In Grand Duke Buck's view, this is even more vicious. This is a continuous draw of blood from the Kingsley family, and it takes ten years to draw.
How much does the entire Kingsley family have a year’s financial income?
Thirty million just made a comeback.
Every year, they cut off one-third of the troops to the Yongye Army. They don’t have to do anything this year, so they tighten their belts and wait for a while.
In other words, the Kingsley family has no chance of turning around in the past decade.
Grand Duke Buck took a long breath and suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "This is not the most critical of the problem. The most important thing is that our little princess, who lives, has been standing on the other side from beginning to end, preparing to eat us to death. The so-called negotiations now are all for them to delay time. If they want to delay food to Akmathur, they will have no other choice. We might as well take advantage of the time to confuse the pool of water, and perhaps find more opportunities to escape."
"But..." What else did Grand Secretary Qian Ning want to say?
He was interrupted by Grand Duke Buck's impatient wave of his hand, "No need to say it, I'm determined. Instead of discussing this, you might as well take more time and consider how to deal with the difficulties of the Eternal Night Army Leader tomorrow. Your recent performance is inconsistent with the salary I paid you. You are the most famous Grand Secretary in the City of Knowledge, and they were defeated by a group of natives. Do you unconsciously embarrass your City of Knowledge?"
"That was just an accident. We didn't expect that the other party had such a research on the early history of the Ancient Andes Empire and Byron Alliance. I have sent someone to the City of Learning to invite people with relevant knowledge to help. Our City of Learning will never drag the employer down on our knowledge. Please rest assured about this." There was a bit of embarrassment on Grand Secretary Qian Ning's old face.
During the negotiations with the Yongye Army Leader, the Kingsley family think tank team led by him charged at the front line.
To be honest, they were a little contempt at the beginning. After all, the Yongye Army leader was just a group of young boys who didn't even grow hair. People as big as them were not qualified to join the library in the City of Learning, so they could only wipe the tables and pour the toilets for their mentors.
The outcome of the confrontation can be imagined.
Although it will not be a complete failure, the situation is quite ugly.
It’s not that those young people are suppressing them in various knowledge. In this regard, the other party’s behavior is normal, and even many of the Byron League’s conventions and customary rules are not clear, which makes a lot of jokes.
However, the other party's information data is far from comparable to that of them.
The other party not only has the detailed research data of his side, but also has control over many of the Kingsley family.
Every time it seems like a huge price, but in fact it is tighter than the bottom line that the Kakinsley family can bear. This bottom line is often something they didn't know before, but was calculated afterwards.
In this case, they become more passive in negotiations.
Not sure when it began, the two sides focused the focus of the debate on the historical issues left over from the ancient Andes Empire when it changed to the Byron Alliance.
In this regard, the staff team of Yongye Army caught them off guard.
The other party is not only prepared for problems in this aspect, but some of the ways of looking at problems and the degree of exploration are very different from them. Especially after careful consideration, many major scholars actually agreed with the other party's views.
To put it nicely, many Grand Secretary are relatively pure people.
To put it bluntly, they are just stupid in learning things and are a little bit inferior in dealing with human relationships and worldly affairs.
When this recognition is manifested in negotiations, the scene becomes extremely embarrassing.
Not to mention the face of Grand Duke Buck, even Grand Secretary Qianning's liver turned into pig's liver.
The reason why the Grand Secretary produced in the City of Knowledge in the Warlock Alliance is famous is that in addition to not being as fond of power as the Holy See and the Witch Secret Meeting, they also have a service attitude similar to merchants and are responsible for after-sales service. If the employer's affairs are delayed due to their own Grand Secretary's knowledge, they will send more and more professional Grand Secretary teams to come for free until the problem is solved.
"I hope your new Grand Secretary is more powerful." Grand Duke Buck groaned. He did not get entangled in this issue. Then, there was no more meaning than showing his scrupulousness.
Grand Secretary Qian Ning pursed his lips, but there was no intention of refuting.
It is better to do something really better to do something like this. When the professionals sent by the City of Knowledge arrive, Da Gong Buck will naturally realize that they can stand for so many years, and that they will not be worthy of being famous.
The secret affairs of Grand Duke Buck and the Holy See, let alone the regent princess, even the Eternal Night Army leader Hawkeye.
Grand Duke Buck had no intention of concealing it. This was an unscrupulous plot. Even if they received the news, they had no way to stop it.
Could it be that they still have to care about Grand Duke Buck's beliefs? If they do this, it would be equivalent to exposing them to the Holy See and allow them to intervene more smoothly.
The Holy See's method of intervening in this matter is still their usual method - exerting side pressure.
They have a huge network of relationships that influences the people around them, especially their families, through believers, and thus influence more people, not to mention that many lord nobles themselves are devout believers.
As the most experienced cardinal, Inoko has been operating in the royal capital Valesta for so many years, and has a very wide connection.
Just a week after he reached an agreement with Grand Duke Buck, the wind direction of the king capital Valesta unknowingly turned to Grand Duke Buck.
Not only the lords and nobles advised the regent princess and beat the edge drum.
Even many young citizens have infinite sympathy for the Kingsley family.
This impact force can be clearly felt even the Yongye Army Leader.
As a new force that has just been established, the Yongye Army Leader does not have much connection with the Holy See, but they have business dealings in the Byron Alliance, especially in the high-end luxury goods market such as silk clothing.
Those fanatical believers of the Holy See even united to resist the goods led by the Eternal Night Army.
After anything develops to a certain level, it will show amazing similarity, and market methods are no exception.
The only thing that is thankful is that the luxury goods transactions led by Yongye Jun are in the primary state, the market is not that big, and the supply is in short supply, so there is no need to worry about unsalable sales at all. They will not have much impact in the short term, but in the long run, it is definitely not a good thing.
The main pressure is still with the Regent Princess Sufilia.
"How is the situation?" Sean asked with concern.
In the negotiations with Grand Duke Buck, the Regent Princess Sufilia seemed to have done nothing. In fact, it was her that did nothing that made the Yongye Army leader press forward against the Kingsley family step by step in the Politburo.
The Yongye Army Leader wanted to eat the Despair Swamp, and Sufeilia's close support was indispensable. In the final analysis, it was still the same thing - military rations.
Although Sean has begun to make arrangements and tries to use the Huayu Plateau grain merchant line to open the Huayu Plateau backup line, it is difficult to see the effect for a while.
The reason why backup is called backup is that it is a secondary choice under the last resort.
The flaws of the Huayu Plateau themselves are there, and the problems that have plagued the Brian family for many years will also become the problem of the Yongye Army leader, that is, the complex terrain and difficult transportation, which makes the transportation cost high, especially large and bulky goods like grain.
Putting aside other things, just transporting it from the Huayu Plateau will increase it by two to three times on the original basis, not to mention that road problems will limit the overall transportation volume.
After the Yongye Army leader ate the Despair Swamp, his demand for food will not only not decrease, but will instead double on the original basis.
The desperate swamp that flooded the river water was fading was becoming suitable for cultivation and returning to the Jiangnan Plain of the past.
But before this, the Eternal Night Army leader had to support the crocodile tribesmen in the Desperate Swamp.
Why did the young reformists of the Crocodile tribe join the Yongye Army so neatly?
Do they really agree with the Eternal Night Army Leader?
