Mavie and Katerina left the hotel with a letter written by William V.
After listening to Marvey's advice, William V wrote two letters, one to Pope Doppler II, and the other...
Leave it to Marshal Friedrich.
"Father Mavey, I am really impressed by you."
On the carriage going to the front line, Katerina said with a smile: "You can turn enemies into friends. This is something I never expected."
"It's just a psychological illusion." Ma Wei looked at the broken city outside the window and said slowly: "Compared to foreign enemies, traitors are more resentful, and when people have greater resentment, some trivial hostile relationships will ease. , let it go."
"You are driving a wedge between the Judgment Church and William V."
"I just presented the facts."
"You are still making plans for the future." Katerina held her chin with one hand and looked at Mavey with interest: "First there was the Romanov Kingdom, then the Windsor Kingdom, and now there is the Frederick Kingdom... ..Is there really no limit to your ambition?”
"Ambition that has limits is not ambition. I want to bring the truth to the world."
"Then I think you won't support my future expansion plans." Katerina said.
Ma Wei smiled: "If thoughts are unified and truth spreads across the earth, will there be any real barriers between kingdoms?"
"But when it comes to thinking, everyone has different ideas, so how can we unify it?"
"So I'll leave one or two enemies behind."
"Why?"
Ma Wei glanced at Katerina and explained: "Because of contradictions. Throughout the ages, the source of progress has been because of contradictions. In order to survive, humans invented stone tools, and for convenience, humans tamed beasts... Human beings have been constantly changing The reason for progress is that they have to fight against nature and enemies. A perfect and flawless ideal will gradually collapse from within, but a country facing powerful enemies will continue to grow and develop. Because of contradictions, it evolves. We We have to thank our enemies for bringing us together."
"Yes..." Katerina couldn't help but sigh: "If it weren't for my brother, we wouldn't have interacted."
"There will be."
"Huh?" Katerina looked at Mavey in surprise: "If I had been the king of the Romanov Kingdom from the beginning, I would definitely not seek help from the Church of Truth!"
"The Church of Truth will definitely develop because it is the truth. Therefore, even if Your Highness did not choose us, we will one day intersect, but at that time we may not be allies, but enemies."
"My cousin Arthur, for example?"
"He is indeed the person I chose." Ma Wei said noncommittally: "Today, I planted a seed in the heart of William V. If Pope Doppler II refuses to withdraw, then this seed will It will take root and sprout, and the Judgment Religion...will appear to be in harmony with the Kingdom of Frederick."
"What if Pope Doppler II withdraws?"
"Then the situation will be even simpler. The Feissan coalition retreats, and the crisis in Chelyabinsk is instantly resolved. Your Highness, you can follow the original plan to repel the Kingdom of Windsor and regain the lost territory."
Speaking of this, Ma Wei paused and added: "Right now is indeed the best opportunity for the Feissan coalition, but unfortunately, we have the help of the blood clan, which they did not expect. To control William V , which is equivalent to controlling the political core of Frederick's Kingdom."
"You're not going to let William V go?"
"As long as Pope Doppler II withdraws, of course I will release him. This is my promise to William V."
"Aren't you afraid that they will come back?"
"Everything is to gain time..." Ma Wei took a deep breath: "Edward needs time to recuperate. I can only make a fuss about William V. When Edward recovers and news comes from the letter, the Feisalian Alliance Army There is nothing to be afraid of. The fighter opportunity is fleeting, and if we miss our weakest moment, the Feisalian coalition will never have a chance again..."
The carriage staggered to the edge of the front line, where the soldiers stood ready to confront the enemy forces outside the city.
A total of 200,000 Feissanian troops have been fully deployed outside the city. The artillery is ready, flags are flying, and the formation is tight. It has the potential to engulf Chelyabinsk.
Once this battle breaks out, Ma Wei has no idea. The enemy is fierce and well-equipped. It is difficult to withstand the offensive with only the 35,000 soldiers under Katerina's command.
Plus Pope Doppler II and the Cult of Plenty....
Ma Wei rubbed the magic ring in her arms, feeling extremely heavy.
If they really fight, they can only activate the Black Sun and create a large-scale massacre. This is their only hope for victory. But using the Black Sun will inevitably cause a large number of casualties, and the Romanov Kingdom and the Frederick Kingdom will also forge a close relationship. After a deadly feud, it would be difficult for the Church of Truth to set foot in the Kingdom of Frederick.
Unless absolutely necessary, Ma Wei would never want to use Black Sun.
This is forbidden magic.
A soldier rode a fast horse and rushed to the position of the Fessarian coalition, and soon delivered the autographed letter of William V to the hands of Pope Doppler II and Marshal Friedrich.
After reading the autographed letter, Pope Doppler II became angry at first and then became gloomy. The letter was clenched in his hand and veins were popping on his forehead.
"His Majesty William asked me to withdraw the army..."
Pope Doppler II calmed down for a while and looked at Marshal Friedrich: "What did His Majesty say in the letter to you?"
"nothing."
"nothing?"
Pope Doppler II felt that this was an excuse. William V must have written something very important in his personal letter to Marshal Friedrich.
"It's really nothing. If you don't believe me, just check it out yourself." Marshal Friedrich handed the letter over.
After getting the letter, Pope Doppler II immediately opened it and was stunned.
There is really nothing in the letter, just one line and a name.
【Frederick William V】
There was nothing on the letter other than the autograph.
But when he saw this, Pope Doppler II closed his eyes in despair, sighed, and suddenly seemed to have aged more than ten years.
Frederick William V.
king.
The rightful king!
A name reminded Marshal Friedrich of his position.
at the same time....
William V was also reminding Pope Doppler II that he...
He is the monarch of the Kingdom of Frederick!
Frederick's kingdom, which lasted for several generations, has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the people also recognized this king who worked hard to govern.
If today, Pope Doppler II ignores the king's edict and the king's safety and launches a forcible attack, then the Judgment Cult will instantly stand on the opposite side of the kingdom. Those believers who are loyal to the king and the Kingdom of Frederick...
What choice will you make?
You know, they are not only believers, but also citizens of Frederick's Kingdom.
At a certain moment, Pope Doppler II felt that something was wrong with the way Marshal Friedrich looked at him. His index finger and thumb quietly rubbed together. Although he did not show any obvious hostility, he had already chosen his side.
A solemn atmosphere surged in the air.
"Report!"
While Pope Doppler II was hesitant, a scout quickly rushed into the temporary command post and shouted: "A large enemy force appeared in the north! Judging from the flag, it should be the 3rd Army led by the Duke of Tbilisi. Three-pronged army! No less than 200,000 in number! The God of Wisdom is also here!"
After hearing this, Pope Doppler II and Marshal Friedrich walked out of the command post, climbed up the high slope, and used telescopes to observe the enemy troops that suddenly appeared in the north.
Among the dense crowd of people, they saw the unique military uniforms of the Romanov Kingdom. In addition...
Pope Doppler II also met an acquaintance.
Archbishop Henry!
"Why do they want to get involved?" Marshal Friedrich asked in surprise: "According to the intelligence, Katerina and Paul I should be at odds! Paul I actually rescued Katerina? When will the noble faction Are you so aware of the overall situation?"
"It's not the aristocratic faction that has an overall view, but the Wisdom God Cult..."
Pope Doppler II shook his head and sighed, walking down the hillside, his back a little lonely: "Retreat, it's over."
"Where is Your Majesty?" Marshal Friedrich asked: "When will they let His Majesty come back?"
"When the army withdraws to Berlin, they will send His Majesty William back..." Pope Doppler II walked further and further away, his tone extremely melancholy: "Now the Romanov Kingdom is really going to rise, and the tiger and wolf ring will Wait, the future of Frederick's Kingdom is worrying... Sigh."
Not long after, the troops of the Kingdom of Frederick began to retreat slowly. As soon as the friendly forces moved, the Kingdom of Sardinia, who was preparing lunch, quickly put away the pots and pans and chased after them, and was forced to assume the task of rearguard.
Fortunately, the Romanov Kingdom did not pursue them and allowed them to evacuate.
"Father, they have withdrawn." Katerina put down the telescope and said: "It won't be long before they come to pick up William V."
"Um."
Ma Wei nodded lightly, the pressure suddenly eased a lot, and his tone became a little more relaxed: "This opportunity is rare, let's go to William V and others to discuss the future treaty. In the short term, it is not appropriate for the Romanov Kingdom to negotiate with the Frederick Kingdom In the event of a conflict, although the treaty of friendship and non-aggression is just a decoration, it still needs to be there."
besides....
Marvey also wanted to take this opportunity to keep William V for a few more days, which is why he had to wait until the army retreated to Berlin before releasing him.
It’s so rare to see such a rare creature like a king, so we must spread the truth more!
William V may be a tough guy, his thinking has been solidified, and it is difficult for him to accept new things, but his two daughters and sons are different. They are too young, not yet mature, and their thoughts are active. It is missionary work. Excellent target for sermons.
For persimmons, choose soft ones.
"Father, are you planning something wrong?"
Katerina read something from the slight expression changes on Mavie's face. After these few months of contact, she also had a more detailed understanding of Mavie.
"No, no, don't talk nonsense. What wrong ideas can I have?"
Ma Wei quickly straightened his face and said righteously:
"I am just curious about the ideological and moral education of the Frederick royal family, and I plan to make some targeted suggestions for improvement."
"speak English."
"Brainwashing starts with children."
