Black Iron Crown

Earl Creek's appeal is still very strong. After explaining the benefits that Reiner would give, his allies expressed their willingness to help Earl Creek and support the Grand Duke Reiner of the North.

Among them are an earl and twelve barons, which are quite a force. They can detect the movement of the Bookden Kingdom in advance, and then gather their forces to gather their forces locally to prevent the army of the Bookden Kingdom from continuing to go north.

Stopping them for four months is nothing to this group of lords. Relying on the castle, plus the child is in his own territory, and there are so many coalition forces, no one thinks that in four months, The Kingdom of Bookern can break through the blockade.

In addition to Earl Creek's convening, Reiner's liaison in Fort Creek also traveled around with his entourage, going to some noble territories with a relatively neutral attitude to request their audience.

And the content of the discussion after the interview was naturally to block the kingdom of Bookern.

It's a pity that this liaison person worked hard to win, but in the end only two people were willing to help Reiner.

The group of people in the southern border now only want to enjoy their lives in the territory after being attacked one after another. Although the current situation of the empire is precarious, they don't think that Reiner will really win in the end.

After all, his goal is the throne of the empire, and the jihad in the west is aimed at the empire. Even after he pulls down the little emperor, he still has to deal with the attacks of the western countries.

At that time, he still has the opportunity to pay attention to himself? It must be to win over my own group of people, even if I don't win over, I definitely won't be able to spare my hands to deal with my own people.

The best result is to reconcile with the countries in the western border after heavy losses. This kind of jihad is jointly organized by many countries, and it is impossible to simply reach a reconciliation before the war.

What's more, it is more likely that Leiner was defeated and deprived of the title of emperor and a large amount of land. Even if he retained the title of emperor, Leiner, who was seriously injured, would not have the energy to manage himself and others.

On the day when he regains his strength, he will become stronger together, why is it necessary to be so submissive now?

What's more, who knows whether the empire will border on him at that time, and it is not impossible for him to be called the king.

Besides, what if Reiner fails to hold on and dies completely? This is something that has nowhere to say, and no one knows where it will develop.

Although the fighting power in the northern border is strong,

It is the most powerful army in the world, but humans are not beasts, nor are they strange creatures. Facing a force several times that of one's own, it is difficult to win.

Of course, another very important reason is that Reiner has spoiled their good deeds several times, causing them to suffer huge losses.

The unsatisfactory result made the liaison very frustrated, and he could only return to Fort Creek with regret.

November 20, Thirty-two Years of the Empire.

The weather had gradually turned cold, and the courier from the imperial capital ran wildly all the way, finally bypassing the territory of Earl Creek and his allies, and arrived at Pimon City, the capital of the Kingdom of Bookern.

King Satli always received the messengers at his palace.

After listening to the envoy's cry, King Satli's brows almost twisted into Chuanzi.

"You mean, Grand Duke Lena of the Northern Territory rebelled in vain, trying to use his status as a member of the Merland family to seize the throne?"

"Yes Your Majesty, my lord, His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire begs you, the great King Bukeden, to bring the army to support your grandson!"

"Could it be that you can't even suppress the rebellion within the empire now?" King Sutley asked in surprise.

Although the empire was weakened, he never expected that the northern border could no longer be suppressed in just a few years.

"It's not just the rebellion in the north! The western countries have responded to the jihad of the Rosa Church and are preparing to launch an attack on the empire. Your Majesty is really unable to hold on, and can only ask for your help!"

King Satli hesitated a little, "Go down first, I will give you an answer after thinking about it!"

"Your Majesty! Please consider carefully! As long as you are willing to send troops to support, Your Majesty is willing to exempt your country from tariffs for a hundred years. In addition, he is willing to give you one-tenth of your annual income as a thank you. 200 high-quality war horses, ceded 200,000 square kilometers of land!"

The envoy was afraid that King Satli would choose to refuse aid because he was worried that there would be too many enemies, so he even confessed the little emperor's promise.

King Satli was overjoyed when he heard the words, and then suppressed his expression, waved his hand and said, "I see, you go down first, the matter is so important that I have to think it over before I give you an answer!"

Hearing what King Satli said, the envoy was able to leave sadly, praying in his heart that the king would be as he thought.

King Satli fell into deep thought after the envoy left. He was weighing the pros and cons. This matter is indeed of great importance.

Although his country has many beliefs, he also knows the influence of the Rosa Church in the West and the Ridka nation.

In his opinion, although the Northern Territory is known as the strongest army in the world, it is actually not difficult to deal with. After the military reform, the military strength of the Kingdom of Bookern has made great progress.

Sitting on 25,000 regular troops, he didn't think how many troops could be produced in that vast land and sparsely populated background.

The road has become the biggest obstacle to the flow of news.

He doesn't know anything about the northern border now, but he still knows very little. In addition, he has no experience in fighting the northern border army, so he doesn't know how terrifying the opponent's strength is.

What really made him hesitate was the coalition forces of the Western countries.

He had also heard about the news that the little emperor was in charge, but because the journey was too far away, and the little emperor deliberately concealed the matter of imprisoning the queen, King Satli only had a half-knowledge about it.

But in fact, he still maintained enough vigilance against the little emperor.

The Earl of Redmara was removed from the government. From these deeds, it is not difficult to see that this is indeed a British lord.

Naturally, a British lord would not be willing to be controlled by others. King Satley felt that this was a good opportunity to increase his control over the empire, not to mention the prices offered by the little emperor were almost impossible for him to refuse.

However, the Allied Forces in the Western Territory was always a huge mountain pressing on his head.

After weighing the pros and cons, King Sutli seemed to have made up his mind.

At this time, the Western countries have also made full preparations.

After some wrangling, these countries finally reached a consensus under the intervention of the Rosa Church.

A total of seven countries participated in the jihad, eight countries including the Kingdom of Bazaran. At this time, they had already mobilized their troops. Even the Church of Rosa dispatched 3,000 elite temple troops and 300 troops. Knights Templar.

In this way, on November 28, the thirty-second year of the empire, the Jihad coalition forces gathered at the location of the Rosa Church.

The 70,000 troops headed towards the Kingdom of Bazalan in such a mighty way. The Kingdom of Bazaland borders the western border of the empire and is the best springboard for attacking. Invading from the western border and going straight to the imperial capital is the plan formulated by the Church of Rosa.

Heresy is a more hateful existence than pagans. What the Pope wants is to completely destroy this heretical country that has robbed the church of power, enhance the prestige and influence of the church, and re-emerge to control the country.
