First Wizarding World War

The four nobles standing between Charlotte and Thessa also held a military meeting.

At the meeting, Baron Exon spoke passionately, pointing out that Charlotte had ten defeats and the four noble coalitions had ten victories.

"Viscount Constantine is a hero of my Black Phoenix, and there is no way he would defect to the Fars people!"

"He is lying, slandering, and disrupting our determination to resist the fall."

"Although Charlotte is famous, he is just a writer who has become famous through literature. I heard that he was just a civil servant in Fars, and he can have his current status because he pursued Princess Anne. His achievements are all fake! Can you believe that a person can write, race a chariot, compose an opera, and fight in battle? Absurd, very absurd."

" Fars, Ingrima, Byron and the Lionheart Dynasty all have their own evil intentions and it is impossible for them to work together. They have come from afar and will not last long. "

"My Lord Earl! Can you believe such absurd rumors..."

At this moment, a clerk rushed in and handed a document to his master, Earl Nobingham. The earl took a look and handed the document to Earl Barnett next to him calmly. The earl looked at the document and was surprised, but he crushed the document directly and did not pass it to Viscount Angeloy.

Baron Exon was about to ask, and another clerk came in. This time, he gave the document to Earl Barnett. Earl Barnett took a look and handed it to Viscount Angeloy.

After the Viscount read it, his face changed, very complicated, and his expression was gloomy.

After a while, two clerks came in one after another, each handing the documents they brought to their masters.

Baron Exon saw the short first line on the document: Viscount Constantine has committed treason...

The baron's eyes went dark, and he was immediately afraid. The document Charlotte gave to the three nobles, which Earl Nobbingham, Earl Barnet, and Viscount Angeloy had just shown him to show their determination and open-mindedness, was a blatant encouragement for the three to arrest the only opponent as a qualification for surrendering to Fars. He looked at the three nobles, panicked, and suddenly shouted: "Swear allegiance to Earl Mecklen!"

"Earl Nobbenham, Earl Barnett, Viscount Angeloy! Let's discuss what kind of ceremony should be used to welcome Earl Mecklen to inspect his loyal Thessa!"

Earl Nobbenham smiled and said: "As Baron Exon wishes."

Earl Barnett and Viscount Angeloy also said at the same time: "Baron Exon is right."

Baron Exon wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He was really afraid that if he reacted a little slower, he would be attacked by these three people, and then cut off his head and gave it to Charlotte as a gift.

He now regretted killing Charlotte's messenger.

Baron Exon really didn't expect that Constantine and his son would surrender?

Charlotte didn't expect that her "threat" would be so useful! This time, not only the original three nobles, but even the baron who killed his messenger, expressed their willingness to surrender, and even took the initiative to express their willingness to be a vassal of the Mecklen family.

The major countries in the Old World are different from modern countries on Earth. Each country is composed of a part of the emperor's direct counties and noble territories. Noble territories are the private property of the nobles in name or in reality. They only need to pay taxes to the royal family and assume some obligations, but the royal family cannot deprive them of their land in any name.

You know, Fars wanted to turn South Seraf and Behemoth into direct regions at that time, but after Ferdinand's death, he still recognized Archduke Joseph with a pinch of his nose.

Earl Nobingham, Earl Barnett, Viscount Angeloy, Baron Exon surrendered, and became vassals of the Emperor of Brittany with their own territories. They just changed the emperor they were loyal to, and their noble status could not be deprived.

But if Baron Exon pledged allegiance to Charlotte, that would be another meaning.

That means the baron is not loyal to the Emperor of Brittany, but to the Count of Mecklen!

There is a similar old joke in Europe, the vassal of the vassal is not my vassal!

Charlotte thought about it and readily agreed to the surrender of the four nobles and the loyalty of Baron Exon. He immediately mobilized his troops and entered the territory of the four nobles. When Earl Nobinham, Earl Barnett, Viscount Angeloy, and Baron Exon saw Andreas, they no longer had any doubts about Viscount Constantine and his son surrendering to Charlotte.

How can the father be there but the son is not, and the son is there but the father is not?

They all belonged to the nobles in the remote areas of the Black Phoenix Dynasty, and the news they received was not so well-informed, so they were really fooled by Charlotte.

It was the first time for Charlotte to accept the surrender of the nobles and the oaths of allegiance to the Emperor of Brittany and to himself. He felt very fresh. He immediately announced on behalf of the Emperor that the titles, wealth, and territories of the four nobles were inviolable, and took control of their private knights.

This was actually against the rules, but the four nobles did not dare to say a word, because they not only met Andreas, but also met nine saints!

They even met the former Grand Master of the Royal Knights of the Fars Empire!

Kratos's reputation is at its peak in Fars, and even in the Black Phoenix Dynasty, everyone knows him. After all, he is the top one. Except for Viscount Constantine, no one in the Black Phoenix Dynasty dares to say that he can win this Holy Mountain of Light!

With such a majestic army and such a luxurious holy camp, Charlotte can only endure silently even if she does something more unruly, not to mention taking away their military power.

After taking down the four nobles who blocked the road, Charlotte only had Thessa in front of her.

The one who has been guarding Thessa for generations is also a member of the Mesu family, but Thessa is only a baron. The current Baron of Thessa is called: Mérimé Mesu!

Baron Mérimé Mesu is a low-key person, and no one knows how strong he is, but almost everyone knows that he has a fleet and two magic alchemy warships!

Therefore, although Charlotte had subdued four nobles and had fourteen saints under his command, he still did not dare to underestimate Baron Mérimée Messou.

When his army approached Thessaly, he did not attack the city immediately, but sent a letter of persuasion, hoping that the baron would take the overall situation and the lives of the residents of Thessaly as the most important thing, and not resist stubbornly, and surrender as soon as possible to avoid the war and the destruction of lives.

However, as Charlotte expected, the baron generously refused to surrender.
