Imperial Crown

Thank you very much to Qidian’s dad [Sanqianlan] for the 100 reward!

…

"Good job, Wanda."

Cato had no absolute confidence in Wanda's ability to obey his orders. Now that he received the news, he was of course very happy.

What was even more satisfying to Gatugen was that Wanda was very thorough and did not send the news of the fall of the high wall in person, but handed it over to the neighboring nobles.

Authenticity goes way up.

I didn't expect that a person who usually seems quite straightforward would be so thoughtful.

Taking out the proposal that had been prepared in the drawer, Gatuggen put on his dress, got into the carriage and drove to the Whirlpool Palace.

The principality has not experienced war for 40 years, which is a good thing for everyone in the principality.

But for the principality itself, it's a different story.

As long as the continent of Middles is still full of countries, the war will never stop.

And if a war really breaks out that sweeps the entire continent, Eivor will not be able to survive alone.

If you want to survive, you must have a strong military.

Therefore, Gatugen has always wanted to push the principality to strengthen its military strength.

But apart from him, neither the nobles nor the Grand Duke himself had such motivation.

"This is a good opportunity."

Since the news is that the Sigh Wall has fallen, then we can use this as an excuse to mobilize the soldiers of the principality——

About 100,000, move to the front line to sharpen your skills, and take turns playing with that little guy Raven.

As long as we can train 30,000 to 50,000 elites, we can ensure the peace of the principality for decades to come!

Thinking of this, Gatugen showed a smile on his face:

"I hope you have the strength to match your bold words, Baron Raven."

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the palace. Gatugen suppressed his smile, picked up the documents, and walked into the palace gate.

Gatugen had the right to ride a carriage in the palace, but he never did so. Instead, he insisted on adhering to the etiquette that a minister should have.

All the way to the meeting hall, you can hear a quarrel from a distance.

It seems that His Highness the Grand Duke has received the news of the fall of the Sigh Wall.

With a smile in his heart, Gatugen pushed open the door and entered the meeting hall.

The roar of Eivor VIII came towards him.

"You can't do this, and you can't think of that. You are the generalissimo of the principality!!!"

His Royal Highness the Grand Duke was sitting on a high-backed red satin chair decorated with gems, holding the armrest tightly with one hand. The veins on the back of his hand were exposed, and his body was shaking.

His lips were pursed, his teeth slightly exposed, and his eyelids were twitching, as if he wanted to eat Quentin alive.

Seeing Gatugen coming in, Eivor VIII seemed to finally heave a sigh of relief, and his tone became much softer: "Prime Minister, you are finally here!"

"Hurry, sit down quickly."

"That person, immediately submit the letter I drafted to the Prime Minister for review to see if there is anything inappropriate!"

Gatugen was polite, but sat on the chair under Quentin's murderous gaze. He had just received the document from the palace servant, and heard Eivor VIII say:

"Sighing that the wall is falling, this is no small matter. I won't argue with you about the appointment of the cabinet. Whoever you say will be the one."

"The most urgent thing now is to quickly send troops to the front line to support us. How many people do you think we should send? Fifty thousand people? One hundred thousand people? Do my guards have to go up too?"

Gatugen raised his head and said: "Your Highness, Raven won't attack Blue Castle now. How about you let me read it first and let's talk about it one by one?"

Normally, Eivor VIII would be dissatisfied, but this time he was extremely obedient and even smiled: "Look, look, I won't disturb you!"

Did you go too far?

Gatugen reflected for a moment, and then felt that there was nothing wrong with maintaining the status quo. He lowered his head to see what Eivor VIII had prepared.

This is a letter for help sent to the "Fiton Kingdom", the leader of the Feton city-states.

The letter mentioned that it hoped that the Fiton Kingdom could make stern representations to the Cairns Empire in the name of the entire alliance and ask Raven to withdraw its troops immediately.

For this, the Principality of Eivor is willing to pay any price.

After reading this letter, Gatugen had only one thought in his mind:

It was broken, and His Highness was frightened out of his wits!

The starting point of all Gatugen's plans is for the principality. Now, for a mere Raven, the overall interests of the principality must be harmed. This is not what Gatugen wants.

"Your Highness, there is nothing wrong with the wording of this letter, and it is necessary to negotiate with the Keynes Empire."

"But, the situation has not deteriorated to that point yet..."

Eivor VIII said: "How could it not be possible? I sigh that the high wall has stood for 400 years, a full 400 years! It is a witness to the history of the principality!"

"Now it actually fell in one night. God knows what terrifying thing Raven has in his hands!"

"Prime Minister, I know that I have done a lot wrong in the past, but now is not the time for you and me to fight with each other!"

When these words came out, Quentin's face suddenly turned livid, which almost meant that he would definitely be replaced.

And based on what he did before, if he didn't have the power of the Grand Marshal to back him up...

At this moment, Gatugen stood up and said something that he would never forget in his life.

"Your Highness, please don't panic."

"Sigh, the wall did not fall. This news was actually deliberately forged by Count Wanda under my command."

The appointment of the Finance Minister is optional.

Since Eivor VIII has realized the important consequences of the fall of the Sighing Wall, he will definitely pay more attention to military development in the future.

That's why Gatugen wants to point this out.

Read the error-free version! 6=9+Shu_bar publishes this novel for the first time.

Otherwise, according to Eivor VIII's current state, the whole country will be messed up by him.

However, what awaits Gatugen is not Eivor's scolding, but the whole meeting room falls into a strange silence.

Gatugen looked up and saw Eivor VIII's face change color several times:

"So... Wanda's death is also in your plan?"

"What?" Gatugen was shocked, there is no such part in the plan!

"Wanda is dead!?"

Quentin looked at Gatugen meaningfully: "... A baron in Tiehua County caught the soldiers who fled from the Sighing Wall and obtained first-hand information."

As he said, someone put a document in front of Gatugen.

Gatugen read it carefully, and the more he read, the more frightened he was.

Wanda died, the Wall of Sighs fell, the heads of the dead soldiers were piled up into a totem with an inexplicable meaning, and the captured soldiers were released after their thumbs were chopped off...

This is not news that can be fabricated.

The Wall of Sighs really fell! ?

Raven does have the strength to live up to his lofty ambitions, but the cost of this verification is too high.

It is so high that the Principality can hardly afford it!

Gatugen felt a chill on his back for a moment:

"This... Your Highness, I really don't know these."

A hint of sarcasm flashed in the corner of Eivor VIII's eyes:

"Heh, it turns out that there are things in the Principality that the Prime Minister doesn't know."

"Now you know, right?!"

"Since you know, quickly consider countermeasures! I don't care what you did before, now I want a way to take back the Wall of Sighs!"

The condemnation in the words deeply hurt Gatugen, but he still advised:

"Raven's army is only 10,000. Your Highness, please stay rational, and we can slowly discuss a strategy."

Eivor VIII also knew that many things were useless to be anxious, but whether it was the fact that the Wall of Sighs fell or the "betrayal" of Gatugen, a loyal man, he was furious.

He rushed down from the high-backed chair and reached out to pull out the map on the wooden board beside him:

"What is falling now is not somewhere else, but the Wall of Sighs!"

"The Principality has been operating for 400 years and has spent millions of gold coins. Even the fifth-level magic cannot shake the Wall of Sighs!"

"It is such a fortress. With the help of Wanda, a fourth-level strongman, two legions of 10,000 troops have not been able to defend it for even a day!"

"Now you want me to be rational, how can you make me rational!?"

With a bang, Eivor VIII pressed his finger on the top of the Wall of Sighs:

"Behind the Iron Birch District is the Bolan District! Do I need to remind you of the importance of the Bolan Gold Mine!?"

"23,000 pounds of gold are produced each year, which can mint 1.2 million gold coins!!!"

"Now, think of a way for me immediately!"

"Stop, capture, and kill Raven!"

"Get rid of this...

Monster from the Nord Province!"
