First Wizarding World War
Chapter 370 Duchess Mesu committed treason
When Charlotte was with Anne, he just wanted to marry a beautiful, rich woman and reach the pinnacle of life.
As the son of a merchant, Charlotte Mecklen did not know the nobles of the empire. As a time traveler, Charlotte did not obtain relevant memories and had no interest in exploring these things that he thought were useless.
So it was a long time before he knew about the huge power of the Brittany family.
Before, Charlotte was complacent about this and felt that he had reported a long and straight beautiful leg, but after being reminded by the black dragon, he suddenly realized that the Brittany family was too powerful.
Anne could find a lot of extraordinary objects in the earl's study, even high-level extraordinary objects.
That was a study, not the treasure house of the Brittany family!
When Charlotte thought that the malice against her might come from the emperor of Fars, she became a little discouraged and said, "If you guess correctly, then there is nothing we can do?"
"Can we still make the emperor apologize?"
The black dragon smiled slightly and said, "The emperor may not always be the emperor."
Charlotte was stunned. He stared at the black dragon. He couldn't believe that he, a time traveler, hadn't thought of rebelling yet, but this old lizard man was thinking of rebelling.
Seeing Charlotte's reaction, the black dragon whispered, "Your contributions are already very great, but do you think you can get even the title of Baron?"
Charlotte thought about it, shook her head and said, "Definitely not! I am only a first-class councilor of the 24th rank, and Baron is the seventh rank of the empire. Moreover, the war has been going on until now, and the contributions I can get are almost at the top. It is difficult to get more contributions, and more contributions are required to be promoted."
Whether it is the Fars Empire or other countries in the Old Continent, the ones who can really be promoted to high positions are always from great nobles. For people of commoner origin, even if they have made countless contributions, the ceiling of promotion is always limited. Charlotte is already an anomaly in the Fars Empire. He has broken through the insurmountable class purely by merit. In the hundreds of years of Fars history, he is also a rare figure. However, he does not need any contributions in the Lionheart Dynasty and Ingrima. As long as the emperor is happy, he can get a higher position than in Fars.
Black Dragon said calmly: "But if you are the son-in-law of His Majesty Brittany, your future may be the Grand Duke of Mecklen."
Charlotte couldn't help laughing. He really didn't think of this, but then his face became serious and said: "Lord Black Dragon, you and I know this matter. Don't mention it again from now on."
Black Dragon nodded and said: "I will obey your orders."
Charlotte pondered for a long time and said: "Then let's wait patiently!"
"See how Strasbourg plans to "deal with" me."
Charlotte discussed with Black Dragon for a while and made another decision. Not only should they continue to send orcs to Cappadocia, but they should also attract a group of human immigrants from Cappadocia. If they want to bridge the gap between humans and orcs, they must allow the population to flow and live together, and they cannot form a settlement like the orc tribe.
The Red Dragon Strait, which Charlotte controls now, is the only strait that can run through the Old Continent and is also the most prosperous commercial channel. Passing through the Red Dragon Strait can save at least several thousand kilometers of sailing, which is much closer than bypassing the North Continent or the South Continent. Cappadocia has another ocean trade fleet of hundreds of merchant ships. The trade line of the Red Dragon Strait should be restored as soon as possible to attract other fleets to sail.
Charlotte also thought that Black Dragon's suggestion was very good, so she handed the matter over to Black Dragon.
Charlotte didn't wait long this time...
The messenger from Strasbourg arrived at Red Cliff City a month later.
Well, Charlotte almost thought that Julius Axel VI acquiesced to his secession on the north bank of the Red Dragon Strait.
The messenger brought a new job appointment. Charlotte was promoted from the 24th grade first-level councilor to the 23rd grade second-level councilor. At the same time, he also had one more political identity: the general affairs officer of the 11 cities in the Red Dragon Strait and the commander of the Red Dragon Sea War Zone!
This appointment was OK, and Charlotte could not say that she was dissatisfied, but she could still vaguely feel that the emperor's indifference had increased.
He still remembered that when he first accepted the promotion, the documents came from three directions, the General Office of the Central Government, His Majesty the Emperor, and Her Royal Highness the Queen, but now it was not so repeated. All the appointments came from the General Office of the Central Government, and there were no reward documents from the Emperor and the Queen.
Charlotte sighed. He must not alienate the Brittany family for an emperor he had never met. That would be too stupid.
After Charlotte got the new position and government documents, the first thing he did was to expand the Knights of Favonius and incorporate all the orc warriors into the Knights of Favonius, making this Knights who were transferred from the patrol army become the largest Knights with the largest number of soldiers in the Old Continent.
The scale even exceeded the Royal Knights of the five empires. After all, this world is dominated by extraordinary battles. The combat power of the Royal Knights of the major empires, calculated by the quality and number of extraordinary people, really no Knights have maintained such a large force.
It can be called the first knight order in the Old World!
After Charlotte reorganized the Knights of Favonius, he wanted to keep to himself and devote all his energy to training to improve his strength as much as possible. In the near future, when facing the evil god, he would have more chances to survive. However, not long after he received the promotion document, the empire sent another messenger. The content of the document sent this time was too horrifying.
Charlotte even felt that, let alone the native novelists of the Fars Empire, even the online writers on Earth might not have such a big imagination. It can only be said that history is more magical than fiction.
An incredible event happened in the Fars Empire that shocked the government and the public!
Duchess Mesu betrayed the country!
This Duchess led all the people in her family and the Northern Fleet to surrender to Bairon. It is said that she also won the favor of a certain blood ancestor and became a blood clan!
When Charlotte got this document, she almost wanted to ask: "Does the empire's messenger also work part-time to deliver novel manuscripts?"
"Which new author came up with this broken plot?"
But the naked reality told him that this matter was indeed true, and it didn't take long for the same news to come from Menilman's Imperial Rose Fleet. Grand Duchess Mesu did betray the country and surrendered to Bairon. Now the Northern Fleet is a terrible enemy on the sea, not a reliable ally.
Charlotte couldn't recover for at least three or four days. He still couldn't accept such a shocking news.
The treason of Grand Duchess Mesu meant that the fruits of victory won by the Empire in the two recent naval battles had all rotted away, and the naval advantage that had just been gained was also equalized by Byron. The war between the two sides entered the next more brutal stage.
