Call of the Heroes of Chaos in Another World

Chapter 1882 Roman Chu, Ovidari

At this stage, both families have powerful enemies, and neither wants to fight each other to a bloody end at this time.

Therefore, after approving this matter, the final result was shifted to the negotiation table.

The war of arms turned into a war of words between the two countries. On the contrary, the owner of this land, the people of Locke Kingdom, had no say in this matter and could only sit back and watch the two families negotiate on their own.

After all, Mongolia had some advantages in the previous wars, so it was more confident when it came to the negotiations.

In the end, Mongolia ceded two of the five cities of the Locke Kingdom to the Macedonian Kingdom.

The Locke Kingdom will continue to rule the remaining three cities. In addition, in order to prevent the Macedonian Kingdom from having any ill intentions towards the Locke Kingdom in the future, the tribal general Kuyuk Timur will station 20,000 troops as guest troops to assist the Locke Kingdom in defense.

As for the mine discovered in the Locke Kingdom, it is right in the center of these cities.

The Kingdom of Macedonia and the Mongolian tribe agreed that this mine would be mined jointly by the Kingdom of Macedonia and the Kingdom of Locke.

Among them, 40% of the profits belonged to the Kingdom of Macedonia, and 60% of the profits belonged to the Kingdom of Locke.

Of course, it goes without saying that the 60% of the profits would never be taken by the Locke Kingdom, and would eventually fall into Temujin's hands.

From then on, the first collision between the Mongolian tribes and the Macedonian Kingdom came to a temporary end.

However, both of them were very clear that the peace agreement they reached in this negotiation was just a stopgap measure for both families.

One day, if the time is right and the two families have resolved their current troubles, these two tigers will definitely have the opportunity to fight again.

Although the current situation in the world has changed drastically, the situation in Xirong has definitely changed the most drastically.

Originally, because of the pressure from the top, such a huge organization as the Holy See, it was possible to maintain long-term stability.

In the land of Xirong, those small countries were constantly changing, with new small countries emerging and new small countries perishing. However, the five great kingdoms remained unmoved.

However, as the conflicts between the three major temples of the Holy See intensified, the Holy See itself is now in chaos, and its control over Xirong has naturally plummeted.

Even the five major kingdoms began to become unstable at this time.

All along, the five kingdoms were not completely free of problems, but the conflicts among the five kingdoms were suppressed by the Holy See, so they did not explode. But because they were suppressed for too long, when they finally exploded, they became more violent.

Except for the Dangu Kingdom, which was under the strongest control of the Holy See, there seemed to be no changes at this time.

In the remaining kingdoms, all kinds of evil spirits have emerged.

In the Kingdom of Britain, which was least controlled by the Church, Henry VIII, with the support of a number of royal princes, brazenly launched a coup, overthrew his uncle, and vying for the throne of the King of Britain.

Henry VIII is a hidden character in the system's random summoning cards and the son of the previous king of the Kingdom of Britain.

Henry VIII is one of the most controversial monarchs in English history, the second king of the Tudor dynasty, known for his multiple marriages, religious reforms, and the building of naval power.

He married six queens in succession and dissolved his marriages many times in search of a legitimate heir. Because he wanted to divorce his wives and marry again, he became enemies with the Pope of Rome at the time, caused the Church of England to break away from the Roman Curia, established the Church of England, and made him the supreme leader of the Church of England.

However, Henry VIII's reign was much more than that. He sought to weaken the power of the nobility and the church and strengthen the king's centralized rule.

He consolidated the royal control of the country by implementing a series of reforms and institutional changes, including the dissolution of some of the powerful monasteries. Henry VIII's decision to break away from Roman Catholicism sparked the Reformation in England. This reform was further developed under the rule of his successor, Elizabeth I, which fundamentally changed the religious landscape in England.

Henry VIII also began to focus on Britain's naval power and founded the Royal Navy, which laid the foundation for Britain's subsequent maritime hegemony and enabled Britain to play an important role in international affairs.

Of course, Henry made no achievements in domestic and foreign policies in his later years. He attempted to control Scotland but failed, and then went to war with France. He relied on large-scale taxation and borrowing to support the war, but nothing was accomplished, only financial bankruptcy, soaring prices, and currency devaluation.

But no matter what, such a person has now successfully ascended to the throne with the support of a group of princes in the British Kingdom and began his career as king.

The original one was forced to the throne with the support of the Holy See after the death of the previous king. The Holy See at that time wanted to strengthen its control over Britain, so it pushed such a person who was close to the Holy See to the position of king.

But in fact, this person was not popular at that time.

Moreover, his own abilities are rather mediocre.

After more than ten years in power, with the support of the Vatican, there has not been any major crisis in his rule.

However, now, with problems arising within the Holy See, he was kicked out of the position of king in a short period of time.

The same was true for the Beidun Kingdom, which also entered a stage of civil strife at this time.

The only difference is that the British Kingdom was because the previous king was forcibly supported by the Holy See to take the throne, and he was unpopular during his reign.

The Kingdom of Beiton fell due to the death of the old king. The princes under him might not be rare figures, but each of them was an excellent prince.

If there was only one such prince in the Kingdom of Beiton, perhaps it would be their luck.

After all, with the size of the Kingdom of Beidon as one of the five major kingdoms of the Western Rong, its successor, as long as he is not incompetent, even if he just lives a decent life, with the help of natural advantages, he will be an insurmountable behemoth for the Kingdom of Macedonia.

Due to the natural advantage of national size, the Kingdom of North Don, one of the five major kingdoms of the Western Rong, was far ahead in all aspects compared to the Macedonian Kingdom, which had just risen not long ago.

Not to mention, the successor of this country is not just mediocre, but also quite excellent.

But the problem now is that one outstanding prince is the luck of the Beidun Kingdom, but having several equally outstanding princes at such a time would be the biggest misfortune of the Beidun Kingdom.

The eldest prince of the Beidun Kingdom is a skilled warrior with high prestige in the army.

Their second prince, whose wife is the princess of the Kingdom of Gaul, has a huge background advantage.

The third prince, his mother is the current queen, and his maternal family is huge. The fourth prince was favored by the king during his lifetime, and during this period, he accumulated huge political resources in the court.

It can be said that these princes, in addition to being equally excellent in their abilities, the worst thing is that they all have their own advantages, and none of them can suppress the others.

What's even more embarrassing is that the old king died in such a hurry that he didn't leave any last words and didn't designate any prince to succeed him.

Therefore, none of them are willing to give in to anyone else now!
In fact, in the history of Xirong, such situations have occurred quite a few times in various countries.

According to the original Xirong tradition, at this time, the Holy See would take charge of the situation, test several princes, and finally, the winner would inherit the country.

Of course, although the Holy See was in chaos at this time, they would still intervene when such a thing happened in the Kingdom of Beiton, one of the five major countries.

The five kingdoms are related to the foundation of their rule, they will not be too lax.

But the problem is that the Holy See is now divided into several parts, so that within the present Beiton Kingdom, there is not only a fight between several princes, but also a fight between various forces of the Holy See hidden behind the scenes.

It was precisely because such an incident happened in the Kingdom of North Don that the Kingdom of Macedonia actively prepared for the southern expedition.

Firstly, he wanted to conquer more small countries to expand his power.

Secondly, they were also waiting for the civil strife in the Kingdom of Beidun to reach its peak. By that time, they could profit from it with their stronger national strength.

The Ovid Kingdom, during this period, was facing joint attacks from the Persian Kingdom and the Roman Kingdom.

The Kingdom of Ovi, among the five kingdoms, is the country with the most fertile land and the highest grain production, and is also the country with the strongest ability to fight a protracted war.

With the national strength of the Kingdom of Ovi, although the national strength of the Roman Kingdom and the Persian Kingdom has developed rapidly and has soared like a rocket in recent years, it can be said that if taken individually, it is still far from comparable to them.

During the Western Rong War, if the Kingdom of Aowei had not been attacked by Da Chu and Da Xia at sea, perhaps the Persian Kingdom would have perished prematurely at that time.

In order to fight against the Austro-Ovidian Kingdom, the Persian Kingdom had no choice but to ally with the Roman Kingdom.

Although the Persian Kingdom and the Roman Kingdom were located in the southeast corner and southwest corner of Western Rong respectively, they were both among the five major countries of Western Rong and under the shadow of the Ovid Kingdom in the south.

Even because of the gap in national strength, even if the two families have now united, they can still only barely protect themselves when facing the Kingdom of Ovi.

Facing the Roman Kingdom and the Persian Kingdom, the Ovid Kingdom can have the confidence to lose a few times. Even if they lose once, they can also bring out a second force to fight against these two kingdoms.

However, the Roman Empire and the Persian Empire had no chance of losing. If they lost once, they would probably be destroyed.

However, the two families also have their own trump cards. The Persian Kingdom is secretly supported by the Dark Church, while the Roman Kingdom has established contacts with the Great Chu Dynasty at sea and started trade.

As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend!
Although this sentence is not completely accurate when used to describe the Great Chu Dynasty and the Roman Dynasty, it can be applied to some extent.

During the Xirong War, the Church provided a large amount of food and grass to the Nanman in order to gain their help. The main source of these food and grass was, of course, the Kingdom of Ovi, which had the most fertile land and the highest grain production among the five great countries.

Even after the Western Rong War, the Kingdom of Ovi still established trade with the Southern Barbarians.

The southern barbarians need food, but the Kingdom of Ovi has no shortage of food.

However, the furs, various rare treasures, and even slaves provided by the southern barbarians were what the Kingdom of Ovi wanted.

The Nanman, a collaborator of the Kingdom of Ovi, and the Great Chu Dynasty were enemies, so the Kingdom of Rome took the opportunity to try to contact the Great Chu Dynasty.

The Chu Dynasty at that time, although it had absolute strength internally, it suppressed the rebellion of Xiang Yu and eliminated this rebellious force in its infancy.

However, although Xiang Yu's forces were defeated, the leader of the bandits, Xiang Yu, escaped and was not completely captured and killed.

In addition, the external threat from the Great Chu Dynasty is still a huge problem they are facing now.

With the Southern Barbarians Dali in the south and Daxiao in the west, the external pressure was too much for the Great Chu Dynasty to bear.

At the same time, Xiang Yu's defeat at the hands of Ren Pingsheng almost wiped out the younger generation of the military of the Great Chu Dynasty.

This defeat would inevitably put the Great Chu Dynasty in a state of transition a dozen years later.

However, this does not mean that there is no impact at all now.

The military's strength was greatly damaged. The suicide of Xiang Yan, an important military figure, and the scandal involving the military aristocratic Xiang family were all huge blows to the military's power.

Against this background, it is inevitable and corresponding that the power of civil servants will further rise.

After this emperor was able to ascend the throne smoothly, the civil officials were the biggest contributors. Therefore, in fact, as early as when the emperor ascended to the throne, the civil officials' power had actually surpassed the military generals' power and had further expanded.

This incident further exacerbated the imbalance between the civil and military forces in the Great Chu Dynasty.

However, the Roman Kingdom has now only teamed up with the Great Chu Dynasty, and the two sides have at most launched some cooperation, which does not mean that an alliance has been established between the two forces.

The power of the Great Chu Dynasty is so huge that even the Kingdom of Ovi cannot compare to it.

The Roman Kingdom, as a mere kingdom, is not qualified to form an alliance with a powerful force like the Great Chu Dynasty at this stage.

If you want to form an alliance, you still have to look at the strength comparison of both parties. If the strength is not enough, you don’t even have the qualifications to form an alliance with others.

For the Chu Dynasty, the matter of the Roman Kingdom was just a casual move. What if it came in handy in the future?

If worst comes to worst, just think of it as giving Xirong something to do!
