Predatory map of ominous birds

Emperor Friedrich IV is dead.

There are only three candidates who have the right to inherit the throne, three grandchildren: the five-year-old grandson Elwe Yushev is the son of the only son of the previous emperor, and is the direct heir, so there is nothing wrong with him taking the throne place.However, he is still young and has no strong relatives to support him, so he is in a very disadvantageous situation.

In this case, Elizabeth, the 16-year-old daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Blanchebeck, or Sabina, 14, the daughter of the Marquis and Marquis of Lidenheim The wives of the Marquis are all princesses), with the backing of his father's wealth and power, it is a matter of course to ascend the throne and become the queen. Before that, there are historical examples to check.If this were done, the father of the young queen would be assisting the regent.

The one who supported Elway was the Marquis Lidianrad, Minister of State of the Empire, but this Marquis did not have strong military support, and political power was worthless in front of the army.Although the other two are not directly in the hands of the Empire's regular fleet, but as reserve marshals or first-level admirals, there are not many regular troops that they intervene in this way-they hold each other...

Neither of them can fight alone against Reinhardt, who claims to control half of the imperial fleet—although this half of the fleet has shrunk by half...

The golden lion's political acumen is still very good, especially with the addition of a prosthetic chief of staff, "Your Excellency! The emperor died before he appointed an heir. In the future, the emperor's three grandsons will inevitably fight for the throne. No matter what The decision of who will inherit it now is only temporary. Sooner or later, it will end in bloodshed...

…""……you are right! "The young Imperial Marshal showed a sharp and ruthless careerist expression, and nodded in agreement.

"The choice of any one of the three is closely related to my fate. However, which of the three parties will extend a friendly hand to me? Oberstein, I want to hear your opinion!" "I'm afraid it is The Marquis of Lidianrad is gone. The other two have fixed force, only Lidianrad does not, he must be very eager to get the support of your military force!" "Indeed!" Reinhardt burst into a bright smile, this kind of The laugh was different from his usual smile to Gilfies.

"Then! I will sell it to him at a very high price!"

Also on the other side of Odin, in what is generally regarded as the hunting grounds of the nobles in the outer suburbs.This place is [-] kilometers away from the imperial city, surrounded by virgin forests formed over hundreds of years, as well as mountains and hills, lakes and rivers, and wild animals everywhere.A lonely road winds four hundred kilometers from the imperial capital to the center of the area, "Hofsmog's Nest". There is a huge manor with many buildings in it. handwriting.The viscounts of that generation were obsessed with throwing money at all kinds of gorgeous buildings. Since Odin’s land was too expensive and there was not such a big place, the prodigal sons of that generation built this manor in a distant hunting ground—— spent A lot of money, fortunately he died early, otherwise it is very likely that that generation of Fafnir will go bankrupt completely.

In the "Hofsmog's Nest", Earl Fafnir, the first-class admiral and his friends sat on super high chairs in the huge hall and discussed how to organize their fleet. Sell ​​it at a high price, "Gustav. The current situation is that it is absolutely impossible for the two foreign relatives to unite because of their conspiracy, but if the two of them do not unite, they alone cannot resist the military strength of the blond boy and the political power of the old man Shangshu In that case, who do we bid for?" Fafnir asked with a smile as he shook the rum in his glass.

"That's it, Rudolph. It depends on who among them will throw an olive branch to us first. Will His Excellency Marquis Lidenrad join us directly? After all, that old man doesn't seem to like the golden retriever either."

"I think it's very difficult. After all, Golden Retriever has more troops than us. Although his losses are not small, he can ask for supplements very reasonably. It is estimated that the number of ships will soon recover to more than [-]. And he is claiming to win after all." For the 'rebel guys', there is still a little bit of military heart towards him, especially the middle and lower rank officers and soldiers. Therefore, it is very likely that the old and cunning Lidenrad will look for him instead of us. But To some extent, she will also show kindness to us, maybe there will be a little surprise..."

Soon, the Marquis of Lidenrad, the Duke of Blanchebeck, and the Marquis of Lidenheim all offered their offers to the first-class general Earl Fafnir. nonsense and promises that probably won't be kept.

"Marry your daughter to Your Excellency? The two of them really dare to ask for an arbitrary price! It is clear that we are fools! This kind of nonsense that will definitely not be fulfilled!" Lieutenant General Shutke Haojian shouted after hearing the message.

"Come on, let's take a look at the offer that His Excellency the Marquis Lidianrad gave us... Hehehe, he is really sincere! Good! I agree!" Fafnir rubbed his hands after hearing what the Marquis' spokesman said. After thinking about it for a long time, he exchanged glances with Xiutekhaojian and replied.

Reinhardt, Earl of Rohenkram, was promoted from count to marquis under Lidianrad's promotion, and was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Space Fleet. Lidianrad himself was promoted from marquis to duke.But almost at the same time, Rudolf, Earl of Fafnir, was also promoted to Marshal of the Empire due to his achievements in the battle of Yamriza, and became the deputy commander of the Space Fleet. Marshal Canada took over.From the very beginning, Lidenrad set up defenses against Reinhardt... What's interesting is that this appointment and promotion was also approved by the forces of the two noble chiefs.

When the news of Alway Yushef's accession to the throne was released, the aristocrats headed by the Duke of Blanchebeck turned from consternation to disappointment, and finally became furious!

However, under the motive of mutual benefit, Lidenrad and Reinhardt jointly supported the central regime, which was unexpectedly strong and powerful.One of them has the basis of force and the civilian class, while the other has the power of state affairs and influence within the court. The two of them use the authority of the new emperor to the extreme to consolidate their own status and power.Although it is still impossible to mend the rift between them from the beginning, it has been covered up under the same struggle for status and power.

When the enthronement ceremony of Elwe Shef II was held, two important ministers representing civil servants and military officials swore allegiance to the infant emperor who was still in the arms of the nanny. The representative is Reinhardt Imperial Marshal.The nobles, bureaucrats, and generals who gathered together were quite dissatisfied with the new system formed by the two, but there was nothing they could do.

The powerful nobles also gained a lot of power and status. The two nobles, under the intentional or unintentional indulgence of Marquis Lidianrad, obtained some powers of the imperial army: for example, quite a few warships belonged to the logistics And military factories, quite management of internal galaxy defense facilities of the Empire and so on.But the nobles will never be satisfied with these, "Does that blond boy and Lidenrad think we are dogs? Throwing a few bones can calm our anger?" Undercurrents lurked under the water.

Lidianrad had been wary of Reinhardt's excessive power from the very beginning, and Reinhardt was by no means a fuel-efficient lamp. He promoted Gilfies to the first-level general in one fell swoop, and launched an impeachment case Ask Marshal Fafnir to resign from the position of Deputy Commander of the Imperial Space Fleet and be replaced by Gilfies.

Fafnir said: "Golden Retriever boy! Everyone is a marshal now! What do you mean by initiating this impeachment case? You can also ask me to resign as the deputy commander. What benefits do you give?" Finally, Fafnir and Luo Under the mediation of Marquis Lidianrad, Yankram compromised with each other. Marshal Fafnir resigned from the position of deputy commander and became the commander of the fleet stationed in the southern galaxy of the empire. In fact, he took away more than three imperial fleets. In addition to being independent from the military order system of Marshal Luo Yankram, it is theoretically directly under the dual leadership of the Imperial Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of State.

"Your Excellency Royan Kram! A politically necessary compromise is necessary. We have successfully obtained the command of the Imperial Space Fleet. Although a part of the fleet was taken away by Marshal Fafnir, he has now been successfully captured by We have taken out the center, and he must spend his energy in the noble fiefdom in the southern part of the empire! Before that, please lead us to work hard towards the goal." Lieutenant General Oberstein said to the depressed Luo Yankram.

Soon, Marshal Fafnir left Odin with a fleet of [-], and went directly to the Germisun Fortress in the Qihoisa galaxy to stay. "Take your time, there will be a good show soon!" Marshal Fafnir looked at the planet Odin and said with a sneer as he left.

As soon as Fafnir left, Admiral Gilfies was appointed as the deputy commander of the Space Fleet.It was Oberstein who worried about this order.He was promoted to lieutenant general, and concurrently served as chief of staff of the Space Fleet and chief of affairs of Marshal Royankram's office.One day he had an audience with Reinhardt and spoke out.

"Whether it's a childhood friend or a talented lieutenant, it's dangerous to merge the two into one. I don't think it's necessary to appoint the post of deputy commander. Admiral Gilfies and Midama The admirals such as Aya and Roenthal should be placed on the same position!" "Obstein! It is useless to talk! I have already decided!" The young commander of the Imperial Space Fleet, with an impatient reply, sealed The chief of staff's mouth.Although he admired Oberstein's wit, he did not regard him as a confiding object.

Reinhardt and Gilphiace finally reclaim the very reason they're on this path - Anne Roger, Countess Grimward.

On the side of the alliance, personnel adjustments were made accordingly.All members of the Supreme Council of the Alliance submitted their resignations.

The prestige of the pro-battle faction has plummeted, while the status of the anti-war faction has been greatly improved. The three review members who voted against the expedition plan were highly praised for their opinions, so they were retained. Before the next year's election, National Defense Chairman Treunisit temporarily took power.

In the study of his own house, Trunicit raised his glass to his foresight, and dropped the word "temporary" from his title, and it was not far off.

As for the military, Marshal Shitley, head of the United Operations Headquarters, and Marshal Lobos, commander of the Space Fleet, also resigned.Some people say that Robos finally brought down his rival Sitley with his own failure.

Lieutenant Generals Upton and Patras who died in action were specially promoted to Field Marshal.Admiral Greenhill was transferred to the investigation minister of the General Bureau of Defense Council Affairs, and stepped back from the front line of military operations against the empire.Ascending to the throne of the Minister of the United Operations Headquarters, the one who was promoted from lieutenant general to admiral was the former commander of the First Fleet, Kubusri.

He did not participate in either the Battle of Asti or the Battle of Yamlizha.Therefore, he does not have to bear the responsibility for the defeat. During his tenure as the commander of the First Fleet, he was responsible for the security of the capital and domestic security. Performance.

When he graduated from the military academy with excellent grades, although everyone believed that he would one day climb to the top that soldiers aspire to, even he never imagined that his promotion speed would be so fast.

The commander of the First Fleet was replaced by Lieutenant Admiral Pat, who had been recuperating from injuries in the Battle of Asti.Lieutenant General Piccolo was promoted to Admiral and took over the position of Commander of the Space Fleet. The veteran can get a position suitable for a veteran. Once this personnel order was issued, it won unanimous praise from inside and outside the military department!

Lieutenant General Ulanhu is still the commander of the Tenth Fleet, Lieutenant General Borodin is still the commander of the No.12 Fleet, and the No.11 Fleet has also been supplemented, and Lieutenant General Hollando is still in command.

The treatment of Yang Weili was not immediately decided. More than 13% of the officers and soldiers of the No.13 Fleet under his command survived, and the survival rate is quite high.But no one would accuse him of hiding in a safe place to escape the catastrophe. Fleet No. [-] was in the turbulence of the fierce battle, and it lasted until the end before leaving the battlefield. It can be said that it did its best.Commander of Iserlohn Fortress, Commander of Iserlohn's Resident Mobile Fleet and Member of the Supreme Council of Staff of the Allied Forces.This is Yang Weili's latest identity.Classes are also promoted to Admiral.Although there are precedents for generals in their twenties, it is the first time that they have been promoted to three ranks in one year during their tenure as a general.

"A showdown with the powerful nobles seems inevitable, maybe it will turn into a war that divides the empire in two?" Gilfies nodded in agreement with what Reinhardt said.

"I have discussed with the admirals such as Mittermeier and Luo Yantar. They also have the same idea and believe that it is necessary to finalize the battle. However, there is one thing that worries me..." "What if the rebels take advantage of the situation?" Sending troops...""Exactly." When the empire was divided into - Lidenrad = Rohenkram Axis and Blanchebeck = Lidenheim Camp - when these two major forces fell into a state of civil strife, the Allied Forces Will it take the opportunity to launch a war of aggression?In this regard, Gilfies, who is confident in the finalization and execution of the battle against the powerful nobles, can't help but feel uneasy.

The blond-haired young man smiled softly at his red-haired friend: "Don't worry too much! Gilfies! I have my own plan. No matter how powerful Yang Wei is in using soldiers, I still have a way to prevent him from stepping out of Iserlohn!" ""What method?...""That's..." Reinhardt began his explanation with water blue eyes shining...

Fafnir resides in the Qihoisa galaxy, but his eyes are still watching Odin's every move.He also used his own fleet to launch several forced seizures, bringing the warship factories and weapons factories in nearby galaxies under his control.The political struggle in the Odin galaxy is in full swing, and no one has the time or time to pay attention to his actions
