Chapter 322 Anjou's Action
Chapter 322 Anjou's Action
At this time, the army of Anjou was attacking and seizing cities on the southwestern border of Capet. Because they had planned to attack together with the demons, Anjou had been promoting the coup on Capet's side, claiming that Her Majesty the Queen had stepped down and a new queen had been born, so that Capet's southwestern army would give up resistance.
This tactic was very useful because of the delay in news from Capet, and the fact that Anjou's intelligence system had always been far ahead of Capet's capital. The generals on the southwestern border believed it to be true, and surrendered immediately once the situation became slightly unfavorable. This allowed Anjou to gain an unstoppable advantage from the start and directly penetrate into Capet's southwestern border.
And now, an Angevin army was on its way to the next city.
"Hey, you know what, things from Cape Northern Territory are really useful!"
An Angevin soldier was joking with his superior at this time.
At the same time, he twirled the ray gun in his hand with dazzling movements, and he didn't look like someone who was handling a musket for the first time.
The reason why this soldier dared to speak to his superior in such a relaxed and joking tone was not only because the Angevin Army had not only won successive victories recently but also seized a large number of Capetian weapons, but also because this soldier had made many military achievements in previous battles and was very skilled in using the ray gun. He even discovered many hidden functions of the ray gun and was able to adjust the parameters of the ray gun.
Promotion is a sure thing.
The commander also looked relaxed and replied, "Yes, I heard that the rear is no longer short of supplies because of the equipment from Capet North. However, so many complete Northern weapons are thanks to Capet's princess. You can see that the charge of these ray guns is almost full. They have hardly been used. I don't know if Capet's princess succeeded in usurping the throne... and restoring order."
"Who cares? This land is ours anyway."
The two looked at each other and burst into laughter. This is also a microcosm of the current situation of the Angevin army. Because of this opportunity, the Angevin army, which has obtained a large number of northern weapons, can be said to be full of confidence. After all, even when this batch of weapons was in the hands of the Capetian border troops, the other side could not beat them, let alone now that they have obtained this batch of troops.
"Cape's Southwestern Frontier Army is like this. I think Capet's Northern Frontier Army is no better. They are all relying on the equipment in their hands. If they really fight us, I don't think we will lose."
"Isn't it? A large number of equipment has been sent back to His Majesty. I heard that His Majesty is already researching replication. It probably won't be long before we can use the equipment we made. Then we will enter Capet, capture the former queen alive, and present her to His Majesty."
"I don't know why your majesty is so obsessed with the former queen of Capet. I looked at the portraits sent by the merchants, and she didn't look like she was having trouble bearing children."
"Maybe big shots like this. Don't the Capetian royal family like the queen? But if you ask me, we should find a wife who is good at giving birth."
The two men smiled at each other. The military discipline of Angevin was quite strict, so they could only talk big. But at this moment, the Angevin army felt the ground shaking slightly, and a roar that they had never heard of before came from afar.
A tank unit flattened the dirt road and rushed straight towards the Angevin army.
Looking at the terrifying steel monster, the soldier opened his mouth and said, "This one has a big butt, so it's easy to give birth."
......
Capet's intelligence was quickly passed to the royal palace of Anjou through Cassius's bards.
"Huh, as expected."
Alberto casually threw the intelligence on the table. Alberto felt from the beginning that Claire Augustine's coup was unlikely to succeed, and even if it succeeded, it would not last long.
When Alberto received Claire's letter, he had already guessed that the outcome of this coup would not be good. Claire Augustine had gone crazy and had thrown out too many chips in order to sit on the throne. Even if the coup succeeded, the best outcome would be to only control the area of the royal city and be a queen in name only.
But Alberto did not refuse Claire's invitation. In any case, it would be Capet's interests that would be harmed in the end. Alberto just needed to take advantage of this period of time to swallow up more of Capet's southwestern border territory.
Things went smoothly. Although the weapons of the North were very powerful, no matter how powerful the weapons were, they were still human. With Alberto constantly spreading the word that King Capet had fallen and the new queen had handed over the southwestern border to others, most of the soldiers on the southwestern border had no intention of resisting firmly and would abandon the city and flee at the slightest setback.
However, Alberto was not in a very good mood because Claire's coup ended in a way that Alberto could least accept.
Not only did it fail, but because of the greed of the demons, the Governor of the North was able to enter and take over the capital with legitimate rights.
The demons were indeed unreliable. For that little bit of territory, they just handed over the great cause to them, and were beaten and fled in fear.
According to the latest intelligence, the demons have been defeated by the latest steel monsters in the North and retreated to the East. The new king Cliff has completely become a mascot. The entire capital, or the entire kingdom is now controlled by the Governor of the North.
Because of this reason, Anjou's acquisition of Capetian intelligence was much slower. Cassius's companion had gradually begun to take over the intelligence network of the royal capital. It was no longer possible for the meeting report to appear on Alberto's desk as soon as the Capetian Round Table Conference was over, as before.
The strength of the North has far exceeded what Alberto initially imagined.
Fortunately, Alberto did not do nothing. At least the production equipment in the north can be used normally in Anjou. Thanks to these production equipment and Alberto's protection policy, many big businessmen and nobles who support Alberto appeared in Anjou in a short period of time. These big businessmen and nobles can provide Alberto with a steady stream of financial support to crack and obtain more production equipment in the north.
With the help of these people, the reverse cracking of the Northern Territory's equipment is also proceeding smoothly. There is even a device similar to the Obelisk, but the finished product is still quite immature. But Alberto believes that as long as he gives himself enough time, he can catch up with Capetic North.
But before that, Alberto must find a way to get more bargaining chips to delay the governor of the northern border of Capet.
"Cassius, how is the excavation of the remains of the old Imperial Research Institute going?"
"Your Majesty, everything went well. You are truly destined to be the one. Even the secret places of the old empire are open to you. I believe that in the near future, Anjou will be able to regain the glory of the old empire!"
"However, Your Majesty, in addition to the research related to the Old Empire, the research on super-level magic has been warned by the Tower."
Hearing this, Alberto's mood, which had improved slightly, became gloomy again. He said, "Explain to Gaota that we know, but we should delay it as long as possible. We don't have to really drive away the guests from the other side of the continent. Although we may not be able to use super-level magic, we must learn this technique and be careful when interacting with those guests from the other side of the continent."
