    "Grand Duke Edward, I hope you can convince us that the reason why you said these words is not that you are crazy." Erikson said solemnly.  And his attitude also represents the attitude shared by Archduke Colin and King Maixilan.  No one wants to be someone else's puppet, especially these people who hold great power. They have been on the throne for so many years and have the possibility of becoming puppets overnight. This is something that no one can accept.

    But the idea Lin Tan put forward now is really impossible to realize.  war?  Not to mention anything else, as long as one of the three major knights of the Holy See is sent out, it may be enough to defeat the alliance's coalition forces.  You know, any one of the three major knights - the Judgment Knights, the Templar Knights, and the Crusader Knights - is enough to make the Cross Alliance suffer.  Although the Purple Lily Legion and the Chinese Knights are so powerful in the alliance, compared with the three major knights of the Holy See, they are completely incomparable.  This is not to say that there is a huge difference in tactics or the personal quality of the soldiers. At this point, Lin Tan is relatively confident. He may not be able to match the elite knights of the Vatican, but at least there will not be a big gap.  But the gap in the number of people is indeed too big. The number of members of each of the three major knights exceeds 10,000.  You know, that's a total of 10,000 regular knights!  It is unclear whether the entire Cross Alliance can gather this number of knights.  .

    A sarcastic smile appeared on Lin Tan's lips: "A simple war will cause the destruction of the alliance, but I'm afraid many people don't want to see the alliance destroyed?" His words made others suddenly realize.  I told Lin Tan before.  Combined with forcing the Evert Federation to take action, Lin Tan's idea is ready to come out.

    The alliance is annexed and controlled by the Holy See. Naturally, the one who benefits the most is the Holy See itself.  In contrast, the relationship with the Holy See is the worst.  Even the hostile Evert Free Federation is almost 100% unwilling to see this scene.  The strong conflict between the two is absolutely irreconcilable.  At this moment, the forces of both sides are on the same level. The Evert Federation's economic and political capabilities and national development are stronger than those of the Holy Empire, but territory and population are a restrictive factor - Evert Federation  Its territory is not even as large as that of the Cross Alliance, let alone the giant Holy Empire?  To put it bluntly, just from the perspective of financial ability.  The Cross Alliance is stronger than the Holy Empire!

    It can be seen that if the territory and population of the Holy Empire increase again, and what is obtained is the fertile land of the Southern Cross Plains, then for the Evert Federation.  But a terrible news.  Once the Holy Empire annexes the Crusade Alliance, then the next Crusader religious war may not be far away.

    It is conceivable that once the alliance forces launch an attack on the Principality of Severon and the Holy Empire sends troops to intervene, the Evert Federation will definitely not stand aside!  certainly.  Later, after Evert helped the alliance, it was natural that he would make some demands. In order to prevent the two sides from breaking out, the alliance had to agree.  This is also a drawback.  But now there is no other way. It is better to have disadvantages than to die directly?

    ¡­¡­

    After the meeting.  Several heads of state immediately began to plan the next military action.  Such continuous wars are not very powerful for countries in the alliance.  It's definitely a huge burden.  Among them, Lin Tan suffered the most. In the Orc War when Lin Tan rose more than two years ago, the army of the Principality of Liverpool suffered heavy losses. Except for Lin Tan's military strength, which was still maintained, the country's main strength was almost destroyed.  Otherwise, Lin Tan would not have become the most powerful warlord in the entire principality during that period, and naturally he would not have the success he did later.  Then came the war with the Principality of Manchester. The war did not last long and the war process was not too fierce, so the losses were not great. However, the entire territory of Manchester was beaten by Lin Tan and was riddled with holes.  As for, but the loss is still not small.  Next came the maritime dispute with the Principality of Florence, and then another orc war, which left Lin Tan mentally and physically exhausted.

    Now we have to continue fighting, and it is difficult for Liverpool and Manchester to continue to exert their strength.  The loss of troops, the loss of money, the squeezing of economic potential there is no way to recover without recuperating for a few years.

    Not to mention Meazza, they have been at the forefront of every orc war.  The losses suffered by the Principality of Florence were by no means small. The maritime fleet suffered heavy losses. After the orcs landed, they wreaked havoc in the hinterland of Florence. The blow was not unbearable.  The situation in Wembley is the best, but it is also the worst. The prince - now the king - His Majesty King Cretino has basically lost his ability to rule the country and has become an Egyptian.  Rickson is the puppet of a powerful minister, but he himself is not willing to accept it. Coupled with some die-hard royalists, he is stillEvery once in a while, Eriksson gets into trouble.  Erikson wanted to mobilize the army, but encountered a lot of resistance.

    Each of the four countries has its own difficulties, but at this important moment of life and death, these difficulties can all be overcome.  On the second day after the heads of state meeting ended, the armies of the four countries had already been dispatched.

    The Kingdom of Wembley began to march from the south of Severon. A force of 4,000 warriors began to threaten the southern pass of Severon; a 5,000-strong legion of the Kingdom of Meazza was also in the east of Severon.  Stationed at the border.  Lin Tan sent the Marquis Versailles, who had been stationed in the Principality of Manchester, with three thousand troops to support the battle.

    The alliance forces marched from three sides, with a total of 12,000 troops, making the Principality of Severon famous.  In terms of the strength of the Principality of Severon, it can be said to be at the bottom of the alliance. Not to mention the two kingdoms of Wembley and Meazza, even the remaining three principalities will be much worse than Severon.  ?  Facing the alliance's attack, without the help of the Holy Holy See, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to withstand it for even two days.

    Naturally, it is impossible for the Holy Empire to just watch the destruction of the Principality of Severon and ignore it. Otherwise, wouldn¡¯t all the efforts they have spent on infiltrating Severon over the years be in vain?  But no one expected that the alliance would be so determined to attack Severon!
