MTL - Heart of Empire-Chapter 507 Unconditional surrender
Today's Bauhinia City, for the Hindler, is like a beauty who has taken off all her clothes in front of a strong man. Jiao Didi has no resistance and can only be let go. E 『』 Ω novel www. 1XIAOSHUO. Com
Within this city, the only military force left is less than 10,000 people. At this moment, in front of them, Aldell's 6,000 elites are nearby, and a little further away, the Peixin Group Army, which has just given the main force of the coalition to destruction, is also preparing to come.
Such a military force is beyond the power of the Bauhinia City.
On the third day after the collapse of the main coalition force, which was October 18th, the diplomatic envoy of the Principality of Florence, located in the capital of silver and white, was fiercely negotiating with the diplomatic ambassador of Hindler, received a bad news : The city gate of the Bauhinia City opened, and Grand Duchy of Florence, representing the entire principality, declared unconditional surrender.
The Florentines surrendered and withdrew from the war in a humiliating manner.
But think about it the other way around, what can the Florença do without surrender? The United Fleet with high hopes has been destroyed; the port of Tarrens has been tightly blocked, and their ships cannot go out; the main forces of the 6th Army are also dead and are in danger.
Even if they gritted their teeth and persevered in the war, the final result was nothing more than a drag on the time of failure, and in the end the city of Bauhinia and Port of Tarens would be ruined.
This was an unacceptable thing for the nobility of Florence to surrender.
On the day of the surrender of the Florentines, Pehince led her troops, stationed in the beautiful city of Bauhinia, and disarmed the last military force of the Principality of Florence.
All Florence soldiers were disarmed and ordered to stay honestly in the barracks without receiving further orders and not allowed to leave the barracks.
At the same time, all the aristocrats and rulers of the Principality of Florence were not subject to freedom restrictions, but in fact, they were almost all under the surveillance of Sindler's agents.
This surveillance is very blatant, the Hindrells have no hidden meaning at all. It was plainly telling the nobles: give me the truth, every move you make is under our control.
On the same day, Dane led a navy soldier with seven dragons, and also boarded from the defense port of Tarrens 6, and arrived at the Bauhinia City the next day.
He had a meeting with the Grand Duke Florence, as King Hindler and as victor.
Archduke Florence was not too young. Now 72 years old, he is wearing a gorgeous purple costume, with the solemn attitude, waiting for Dane in his castle.
But beside him, within his castle, he could not see any of his soldiers. The guards in the hall were all Schindler soldiers wearing white wolf heads.
His Royal Highness never imagined that he would encounter such a thing when he was over a rare age.
He has been Duke of Florence for thirty years. He still remembers his ambition when he took the bauhinia scepter from his father thirty years ago. In the past thirty years, he can also be described as inspiring. In the past thirty years, the Principality of Florence did not have any particularly large exhibitions or breakthroughs, but it has basically not encountered What a great disaster.
The smooth development, the steady and steady increase of economic strength, and the people's living standards are also slowly rising.
In general, the current Grand Duke of Florence is regarded as a qualified national monarch. At least, in the folk criticism, he was called excellent.
After thirty years of recuperation, national strength has risen. When he dies, give the seat of the monarch to his son, and see if the country has any better exhibition opportunities.
However, all this was eventually interrupted by the arrival of the Hindler.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty Dyne, you won."
Hearing such a sentence from the mouth of a country, Dion smiled.
In front of this old man with a reputation for many years, Dane was far beyond hope. Now, the monarch of a country can only use the costume to maintain the last bit of decentness.
"Congratulations, Your Royal Highness, your wise choice has prevented a poisoning," said Dion.
He inadvertently and taunted the old man, but, from the perspective of a loser, it was difficult to regard it as comfort, no matter what he heard from the mouth of the enemy.
Archduke Florence smirked bitterly, and sat down slowly, then said, "I never thought that Florence, under my rule, would become a defeated country. I never even thought of Bauhinia. The city will fall into the hands of other countries in my lifetime. "
Dion shrugged. "Who can tell the truth about the war?"
The Duke sighed again and asked, "Your Majesty, we can talk about other things slowly. I just want to ask you one thing."
"Say it."
"I want to know ..." The archduke's face became solemn. "Duchy of Florence, will it still exist?"
A big smile appeared on Dyne's face. He said: "Of course it will exist. Florence is from Florence, not from Hindler. I did not include it here for a long time. Meaning ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~ but ... "
He continued: "However, if Florence exists, it should also exist in the way that Schindler hopes. I need a duke to help me maintain Florence's rule, and I believe that in the future Florence should be an ally with Sindler, are you right? "
Grandpa Florence was silent, and of course he understood what Dane meant.
It was difficult for the Hundlers to rule Florence directly. This country has existed for a long time, which is not to say that everything can be done successfully after completing the military occupation. The relationship here is intricate. If Dane really wants to include Florence in his rule, he must do well to face ups and downs, uprisings, rebellions, and nationalism.
It may take decades to completely assimilate and settle the Principality of Florence.
Internal instability, and at the same time, facing the pressure of the Divine Alliance externally, this is a laborious and unpleasant thing.
In contrast, maintaining Florence's presence and turning Florence into an 'ally' of Schindler's, or a vassal, are the most favorable choices for Schindler's.
