The Holy Empire has no intention of breaking the contract—nor does it have the guts.
After being humiliated by Dane on the city wall, Jobdine didn't dare to let go of a fart, but just walked away, and evacuated with the army of the Holy Empire the next day.
Dane didn't bother with them either. He planned to rest in the Silver City for two days, formulate a comprehensive campaign against the Pudley Kingdom, and then start post-war reconstruction work.
Different from Florence and the Bull Marquis, those two countries have some political factors after all. However, the Pudley Kingdom, which is already empty and does not even have a legal government, is another matter. Dane intends to directly incorporate Pudry into his direct rule.
However, what kind of name to use is a problem.
Schindler does not have the legal right to rule Pudry, and it is not a good choice to directly incorporate Pudry into the Kingdom of Schindler.
When the idea came here, there was a small problem. Dane thought about history, and felt that the name of the Second Caesar Empire was pretty good.
Back then, Emperor Lin Ao could fly the banner of the Caesar Empire and 'revive' the Caesar Empire that had actually been extinct for hundreds of years, so why couldn't Dane
Seems like a good idea to be the emperor of the Caesar Empire.
In itself, Pudri, Florence, and Schindler were the original territory of the Second Caesar Empire. In the name of the Caesar Empire, there is enough legal power to rule these places.
Actually, it's not just these places anymore. The original Caesar Empire, thousands of years ago, was the real country that dominated the entire continent. Emperor Caesar, the ruler of the entire continent of Orodik. Inheriting this position, not to mention the existing territory, the world is so big that the name of 'restoring the old soil' is everywhere.
As for how to become the Emperor Caesar... It is not difficult to say, why not declare to the whole world that the blood of Emperor Caesar flows from your body
In the same way, this world still respects strength. The descendants and blood of the real Emperor Caesar do not have strong influence, and they are no different from beggars on the side of the road; but with enough strength, the quarter of the orc blood on Dane is also noble.
Dane rubbed his chin, and said to himself: "Emperor of the Third Caesar Empire, yes, there is nothing wrong."
…
The main army that dealt with the undead on the eastern border was mobilized back home, and the Holy Empire could breathe a sigh of relief. These more than 40,000 people are a very helpful supplement to the other two fronts. The most important thing is that apart from this point, after the Holy Empire does not need to worry about the eastern border, it can also relax its mind and fight the Evert Federation.
As for whether the Schindlers will take the opportunity to attack the Holy Empire... According to the senior management of the Holy Empire, they dare not.
But things, there will be some surprises.
Three days after the army of the Holy Empire withdrew from the silver capital, Dane received a message: an undead army camp stationed in the north of the silver capital was attacked. When the other part of the team rushed to the scene, all the more than 600 undead in that camp had been wiped out.
It must be said here that it is true that the undead army under Dane's command is 200,000, but they will not all be stationed together. The number of 200,000 is really too much. If you rush out in a mighty way, let alone you can't see the end at a glance, even if you fly, it is difficult to get a panoramic view.
If a city has a population of 100,000, it can already be regarded as a metropolis. With a population of 200,000, there are only a few cities of this size in the entire Orodic world. In the east of the mainland, there is only one city of this size, the Silver City.
No one can command such a large army, not even the undead. These undead can only be stationed separately, and if they are packed together, they will be so crowded that they cannot move.
Therefore, the enemy was given an opportunity to take advantage of it.
In fact, for Dane's undead army, losing a camp with only six hundred undead was nothing at all.
However, the meaning behind this is very interesting.
This must have been done by people from the Holy Empire, Dane guessed. Subsequent on-site investigations also basically confirmed this point.
The legendary necromancer Alan Thiel, using some backtracking spells, found the traces of the enemy-they are now in the army of the Holy Empire.
"Is Joberdin crazy?" Patience said in disbelief after hearing the news.
It is really hard for her to believe that people from the Holy Empire did this. If the evidence had not been conclusive, she would be more inclined to believe that it was a conspiracy by some other country to provoke Schindler and the Holy Empire war between.
There are indeed many forces with such motives. Take the Evert Federation, for example. That was a magical country, and not only were they sworn enemies with the Holy Empire, they were still at war. They are undoubtedly the last group of people who want to see the chaos on the frontier of the Holy Empire end. They originally launched the attack when the holy empire was held back by the remaining power of the cursed church.
But this matter should not have been done by the Evert people. They have the ability to eliminate six hundred undead, but it is difficult to disguise the battlefield as a washed-out appearance under the eyes of Dane.
Of course, it is theoretically possible if they control some soldiers of the Holy Empire and attack Dane's undead camp through some spells that control the faction. But it was not a small movement after all, and it could not be done under the eyes of the chief judge of the holy Holy See and the great lord.
Therefore, the most reasonable explanation should indeed be that people from the Holy Empire did this.
But why
Dane gave his own guess: "I guess this is not the meaning of Joberding or John. It may be that some of their generals and officers are not convinced by the current result and act without authorization."
"Then what should we do now?" Patience hesitated slightly.
Dane said: "At first, I still hesitated, whether to end the war and develop slowly, or take advantage of this opportunity to make more money. However, it seems that someone has helped me make a choice now."
The meaning of his words is already very obvious!
On the same day, the undead army that had been stationed in the northern part of the silver capital for a long time was dispatched again, and the mighty army that followed Joberdin's retreat bit the buttocks!
