His expression became more solemn.
"That's exactly what I'm trying to say about trouble.
The King of Britain has been hiding his strength before, making people think that he is nothing more than that, but why did he show the power to shoot down gods at such a time?
I don't think it's accidental."
When Bismarck got the news, he thought of a lot.
As for .. Lucifer, he felt that Lucifer had always been: pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger in a low-key manner.
If the downing of the gods had happened two years ago, Caligula's strategy against Britain would never have been so simple.
France's previous tactics against Britain will also be different.
But now, it's too late to regret.
"He's demonstrating.
cough cough."
Pepin said what was in his mind.
"Exactly, the armistice ends in three months, and Britain will definitely make a big move at that time, otherwise, with the personality of the king of knights, people will not see his cards at this time.
Only, he is demonstrating.
The power to bring down the gods is enough to make one's enemies tremble."
Bismarck said.
"..."
"Originally, with the situation of Ross, the King of Britain had two choices.
The first one is Rome, using the one from Ross... the woman he supported to jointly attack Rome. The little girl in Rome is now suppressing the rebellion and suppressing Macedonia. If Britain attacks at this time, it will undoubtedly be a good opportunity.
Originally, the alliance between Ross and Britain was dominated by Thunder Emperor, and Britain was only a flank, but now Britain has become the leader, and Ross has become a flank.
The situation is changing too fast.”
Bismarck voiced his concerns.
When Lei Di was still around, everyone thought that Lucifer was just Ross's younger brother, and it was good to take advantage of the opportunity, but most of them were still cooperating with Ross.
Now, no one doubts that the dominance has come from Ross to Lucifer.
"What about the second one?"
"French.
Rome is immaculately concerned with Britain, and Rus is now allied with Britain, and it is not completely stable internally, and it is powerless to do anything with Britain.
This means that there is no threat to the north or east of Britain, and he can go south with all his might."
Having said that, Bismarck did not go on.
But he believed that Pepin had understood.
Since the last war, Britain has been dormant under the leadership of Lucifer for five years.
Five years later, with a full blow, it is difficult for them to imagine how powerful they will be.
"How is the situation in the country?"
Pepin changed the subject and asked.
"Very optimistic."
Bismarck answered truthfully.
"Those... untouchables are making trouble again"
"This time not only ordinary people, but even some minor nobles also participated."
"Hmph, kill! Anyone who dares to participate in the rebellion will be killed."
"The eldest prince is already doing it."
"It's still my son who understands me best."
"Not only that, but also the tax issue. This year's harvest is also smaller than in previous years. There are already four 44 factions in the country."
Speaking of which, Bismarck was a little worried.
They didn't feel it before, but now it seems that the power of the church is expanding a little too fast.
The more chaotic the society, the more people will desire for faith, and this is the nutrient for the growth of the church.
"Four 44 Churches!"
"Yes."
"How about the army?"
Pepin asked immediately.
In his view, the church is only a small problem, and as long as the army has no problem, the church can be destroyed at any time.
"The size of the army has not been reduced, and it has been expanded at the request of the eldest prince.
It's just a flying dragon army..., the eldest prince used the same wild white dragons as Britain's, but still: training."
"Very good! Just as long as there is no problem with the army.
Bismarck, what do we need most now"
"Time! Time to deal with domestic problems. People's livelihood in China is now withering, internal strife is serious, and the treasury is empty. Reform must be carried out."
Bismarck addresses the crux of the current problem.
The problem with France now is that the energy is boosted at home, while the aristocracy at the top is reaping the rewards.
It can be seen from the fact that some people want to escape to live in Britain before, if they don't change, those who can't live will resist sooner or later.
That's right! They may fail, but they will also devastate the situation in France.
It would be fine if there was only one country in the world, France, but the problem is that Britain is right there, ready to go south.
In this case, once there is a problem at home, Britain abroad will send troops again.
France is completely over.
However... "I don't think I've heard this one."
Pepin said at this time.
"..."
Bismarck chose silence.
Looking at the prime minister in front of him, Pepin said nothing.
Does he not know the domestic problems in France?
Of course he knows, but the problem is that the problem in France is a problem of the institutional structure, not a day or two.

If it is really like the reform Bismarck said, it will definitely make some vested interests resist, and these people originally supported the king.
Therefore, let's not talk about whether the reform is successful or not. First, people will no longer believe in the king, and those who may beneficiaries will not appreciate it.
In this case, even if he understands the domestic problems, he will not do anything.
Because there are too many implicated in it, a large-scale rebellion may occur if one is not careful.
Even if France were to carry out reforms like that of Britain, some nobles would definitely choose to surrender to Britain.
Pepin knew very well that these guys would do anything for their own benefit.
If they said that they would confiscate their property now, these people would definitely resist desperately, and even with the example of Lucifer, it would be impossible to imagine Lucifer cutting the meat with a fine knife.
The reason why Lucifer was able to play like that before was because those... old nobles didn't know Lucifer's determination and successor.
When they laughed at Lucifer's stupidity, they didn't know that they had swallowed the poison themselves.
Coupled with Lucifer's own abilities, the rebellion was quickly quelled.
But if France plays like this at such a time, it is killing her.
"You said just now that the treasury is empty, and that's the same thing, raising taxes.
Use the money to expand the army."
Pepin thought about it, and said one of his favorite hobbies.
Gold Coins! He used to like things the most, but now they are getting away from him.
"Your Majesty, the tax cannot be raised any more.
Any further improvement would be equivalent to forcing them to rebel."
Bismarck immediately persuaded.
"They dare!"
"The matter of the treasury can still be taken slowly. The most urgent task at hand is to find a way to get time."
Bismarck also understood that Pepin loved money, and he immediately changed the subject.
The relationship between countries in this world is very interesting.
Unlike the last world in Lucifer's memory, as long as there is no armistice here, the two countries are at war, which means they can attack at any time.
There's no need to go through the trouble of looking for any righteousness or anything like that at all.
The previous Thunder Emperor was...that's it.
"time......"
"Without time, there is nothing.
We can't raise taxes during a war."
"What you said makes sense.
