After the Battle of Maginow, the Sun Never Sets Empire, the Holy Light Empire and the Griffin Empire, the three empires have given up all their previous activities outside their empires, especially the Holy Light Empire, which not only did not do anything against those wavering vassals after the war, but even publicly declared that several vassal states were the most loyal servant states of the Holy Light Sect, although these countries received this notice, Its leaders are pale almost every day.

After the end of the battle, the two empires belonging to the allies decided to form a new inland sea fleet almost immediately on the bright side of the country, according to the number of subsequent reports from the two countries, the Holy Light Empire decided to form three fleets, and named them Radiance, Bright Light, and Holy Light respectively, the three fleets require that each fleet must have 50 light warships that are good at raiding and reconnaissance, and the regular military 4-sail warships of the Holy Light Empire: 130 Holy Light warships, Plus at least 3 or more Adjudicator megaships, and the original heavy ships of the Holy Light Empire were announced to be abandoned.

After the battle of the Inland Sea, the Allied side has fully realized that the long-range firepower of the Sunset battleship is completely an almost insoluble storage zài, and in the face of that overwhelming shells, the slow-moving heavy battleship is completely a burden, and on the contrary, those light warships that move faster have become the most headache for the Sunset Navy. Medium-sized warships are the main combat plan for breaking through the broadside battle, and the combat plan is the most naval combat style that can make the sun never set and the navy will suffer heavy losses.

Of course, the heavy battleships that were originally equipped were abandoned by the Holy Light Empire. However, it did not mean that the Divine Light Empire did not have a warship type in the heavy warship, and in the following months, an improved Holy Light Battleship was launched on the sea outside the newly built Holy Light Port Xingang Shipyard. The random improved Holy Light Battleship has become a new generation of heavy warships of the Holy Light Empire, the battleship has 5 sails, and the hull is half as large as the Holy Light Battleship, but on the whole, its hull width is almost equivalent to that of the Holy Light Battleship, and the hull of the ship is designed with double-layer wooden planks, and the outermost wooden plank skin is coated with a special fireproof wax; Armament was equipped with improved naval crossbows and trebuchets, and was staffed by 50 sailors, 60 assault men, and 30 crossbow shooters per ship. Dubbed the Shining Ships by the Divine Light Empire, it required that each of the three newly formed fleets must be configured according to a standard of 30 ships.

In contrast to the Divine Light Empire's drastic reform of its navy, the Griffin Empire's reform is presented in a different way: the Divine Light Empire's navy has existed in name only after the Battle of the Inland Sea. However, the Griffin Empire's navy retained approximately the strength and number of warships of both fleets after the Battle of Maginot ended.

But because it has come into contact with the Sunset Empire, which has the most advanced navy, the Griffin Empire has to transform its own military warships to adapt to the Sunset Empire's warships with extremely strong long-range lethality: whether it is the most standard griffon battleship of the Griffon Empire, or the Shark Warship with powerful ramming angles, or the rest of the various types of warships. After the Battle of the Inland Sea, they all fell into the military port for improvement.

The Griffon Empire's improvement of all types of warships is almost the same as the performance of the Divine Light Empire's Shining Battleships. It's just that the Griffon Empire is more thorough in abandoning heavy warships, almost all of the Griffon Empire's heavy and super heavy warships have been transformed into command ships and no longer let them enter the battlefield, while light and medium warships are almost armed according to a configuration similar to the Shining Warship, but the slight difference is that the Griffin Empire chooses to focus on the impact strength of the battleship rather than the lethality of the long-range equipment carried by the warship because it is inferior to the Holy Light Empire in terms of long-range equipment in naval warfare.

Except for the navy, the two great empires in the middle of the continent have hardly made any changes in the army and air force, and only require the military to restore the number of military forces of the countries before the war in the shortest possible time. And to ensure the combat effectiveness of the number of new armies, the real changes between the two empires are the commerce and people's livelihood of their empires, the aristocracy, etc.

The Holy Light Empire lost the Holy Light Harbor due to the Maginot War. The aristocratic class in the country began to move: although the Holy Light Sect is the real controller of the Holy Light Empire, even if everyone knows the true face of the Holy Light Sect on the bright side, the Holy Light Sect must also catch a royal family and maintain many nobles to maintain the Holy Light Empire, after all, it is the current national conditions of the King Continent, even if the sun never sets the empire, it also has an aristocratic class, and because of this, in fact, the Holy Light Empire also has a name, which is the earliest name of the Holy Light Empire: the Holy Light Alliance State.

Although the priests of the Holy Light Sect have monstrous powers, it is impossible for the real priests to have the ability to manage the country, and only those nobles in the country have these abilities, so the real high-level power system of the Holy Light Empire is like this: the Holy Light Sect is the supreme leader of the country, and below it are the two archbishops and many bishops, and they are equal to the dukes, counts and generals in the country, but if they are subdivided, the bishops are equivalent to those nobles and generals who oversee them, as for the royal family of the Holy Light Empire, Although the fame is very good, in fact the royal family is not at all comparable to the first three, because in the first three, the bishops represent the hearts of the people, while the great nobles are the foundation of the state: the managers and rulers of the commoners, and the generals hold the real fighting forces of the country. Compared to these, the royal family of the Divine Light Empire is completely a mascot-like being, and at most sometimes makes a cameo appearance as a member of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

And after the Battle of Maginow, because of the sudden decline in the influence of the Holy Light Sect, many problems arose within the Holy Light Empire, and the problems of the Holy Light Empire were the nobles who controlled the people: what I want to say here is that the nobles who caused turmoil within the Holy Light Empire were not the nobles who participated in the Holy Light Sect at the beginning, because those nobles were the new generation of nobles of the Holy Light Empire, and the basic title was viscount or viscount. And it is the old aristocrats and even the old families who have chosen to be bystanders in the previous papal election that are causing the turmoil.

The Holy Light Sect, the real power system of the Holy Light Empire, and the aristocratic class of the non-real power system have been a contradiction for hundreds of years, because of the two major problems of external forces and popular support, the old aristocratic faction will maintain the "most intimate" cooperation with the Holy Light Sect for thousands of years. Because they all know that without each other, the power system they have created with their own hands will inevitably be swallowed up by the griffin empire that is eyeing the north fiercely, and the Holy Light Empire established without the Holy Light Sect of the nobles is a utopia that is gorgeous on the surface and fragile on the inside, and the southern nobles without the Holy Light Sect will eventually be just a group of clowns in the eyes of everyone.

The turmoil within the Divine Light Empire is said to be turmoil, but in fact it is nothing more than a new round of division of power between the two power systems within the Empire, and the old nobles, who were the least affected after the end of the Maginot War, used the excuse that "to ensure that the empire is not affected by external forces, it is necessary to restore a group of self-defense forces in the short term". Asking the Holy Light Sect to agree to give these nobles the right to return the noble private soldiers that they had taken back hundreds of years ago, you must know that if the Holy Light Sect really did this, then these old nobles would have their rich heritage. It is inevitable that each duke and each family will be able to pull out at least one legion of noble troops, which is the most lethal for the Holy Light Sect.

Why has the Holy Light Sect been able to suppress the nobility all the time? Popular Hearts? Faith? No kidding! In the Middle Ages, commoners didn't have that much intelligence, and sometimes a bag of rice was enough to convert a commoner! The Holy See's private army, on which the Holy Light Cult depends, is the most elite private army in the empire with more than 600,000 people! Of course, less than a third of this private force is now crippled by the sunset. And now those aristocrats just want to use the money to put all the vacant 400,000 troop seats with their own names. And the most let the Holy Light educate the Holy One. Elcott's headache was that he was justified, and he also contracted the reconstruction plans of all coastal cities, including the Holy Light Harbor, before the Holy Light Cult reacted, and this trick caught the Holy Light Sect seven inches at once.

However, no matter how much the Holy Light Empire is tossed around, it is not as miserable as the Griffin Empire, and the Holy Light Empire's side is just a turmoil at the top in order to redivide interests, but these turmoil will not affect the third major force of the Holy Light Empire: the military force. I have to admit that even Sun Lin himself has played many times to praise the regular army of the Divine Light Empire. Not because these armies are among the best in the continent, just because these armies are a group of troops loyal to the country from the bottom to the top.

They are not the guards who secretly exploited the people who guarded the Holy Light Harbor before, nor the Holy Light Sect troops on the Maginot front who became crazy after the Holy Light priest read the doctrine and paid suspected stimulants, but a group of silent but extremely strong real soldiers, they don't live for anyone, they just exist to defend the country of the Holy Light Empire, until now Sun Lin can't understand why this force has not been corrupted by power and the smell of copper to this day, However, Sun Lin had to admit that if he wanted to defeat the Holy Light Empire, then after he landed on the territory of the Holy Light Empire and went deeper, he would have to face this 500,000 army that had been guarding the border between the Heavenly Dragon Empire and the Holy Light Empire, which may be one of the reasons why Sun Lin was not in a hurry to rework.

Compared with the Holy Light Empire, which has a completely neutral power system guarding the borders of the empire, although the Griffin Empire also has a unit dedicated to the Griffin Emperor, this force cannot represent the entire army strength of the Griffin Empire: The overall army system of the Holy Light Empire is composed of three major leaders: the military forces, the Holy Light Sect Protector and the noble army, and under it, there are also knight forces that are free from the army system but will inevitably be the Holy Light Empire World War II in wartime. and the defense armies of the regions established with the support of the bishops or nobles. The Griffon Empire, on the other hand, is relatively simple, as the Griffon Empire's army is divided into two forces, namely the regular state army and the noble army, plus a Praetorian Guard exclusive to the Griffon Emperor.

The advantage of the traditional military system of the Griffon Empire is that it has a strong mobilization force in terms of troops, but the disadvantage is even more obvious: except for the Praetorian Guard, the rest of the troops do not belong entirely to the Griffin Emperor, and even those national armies have either secretly become the private forces of a certain prince, or have been controlled by a certain noble or family.

There was turmoil within the Divine Light Empire, after all, it was just the high-level bigwigs fighting, but on the side of the Griffin Empire, it was a group of princes pulling troops to fight in groups: after the Battle of the Inland Sea. For the 100,000 griffin troops lost in the Battle of the Inland Sea for no reason, there must be someone within the Griffin Empire who comes out to carry the black pot, and this person is none other than that. It is the first heir in line to the throne of the Griffin Empire - the eldest prince Alan. Of course, this pot is said to have been carried by him on his own volition.

After the first heir in line decided to take the blame, as the supreme leader of the country, the Griffin Emperor neither agreed nor vetoed, but only issued the next order, asking the eldest prince Alan to resign as the manager of Griffin Port and return to Beijing to meet him after dealing with all the matters in Griffon Harbor, but it was this instruction that directly made the Griffin Empire explode.

"Morse. What do you think is the purpose of the Griffon Emperor's move? "After the end of the war, after Sun Lin himself lost the Maginot Line to the two generals on which the sun never sets, he shifted his mind to Qilin City. Although Qilin City is not the central city of the Western Regions of the Central Continent, it is a large city with the most complete urban system in the Western Regions of the Central Continent, and the logistics center that never sets before is also here, and it is not only to improve work efficiency and environment. It is also because only here can we best understand the situation in the Western Regions and even the Northwest Regions in a short period of time and make new plans.

"The most plausible explanation is that the Griffon Emperor wants to take this opportunity to truly establish his heir. And pave a complete back road for their heirs. Morse said that compared to the intelligence director who never set the day before yesterday, the new intelligence director in front of him is more in line with Sun Lin's taste, and Sun Lin sometimes even thinks that this guy is more of an internal affairs manager and eunuch than an intelligence director.

Morse is not a decent gentleman, on the contrary, when he was the supreme leader of the Raven Organization before, his appearance was completely a peerless villain: framed, tricked, poisoned, this intelligence leader from the southeast region of the Central Continent completely showed his most despicable scene, if it weren't for Morse's previous whereabouts and appearance in front of others. No one knew how many layers of masks and human skins he wore on his face, and Morse's nickname should not be the Raven Governor or the Thousand Faces. Rather, it should be a despicable person.

In fact, Sun Lin knew that after the loyalty of the raven chief, his foundation was still black and could flow out of the water, speaking of which this guy was also bold, when all the members of the raven organization turned into intelligence officers of the Sunset Empire, this raven manager took advantage of the characteristics of the sun's non-setting business to directly take out all his family funds and smash them, of course, all the investments of this guy are smuggling, usury and other industries.

The most important thing is that this kind of thing is almost a well-known thing in the high-level of the sun, and according to the constitution of the sunset, if you want to change to a guy from the military department or the civil department, you can basically only wait to be beheaded, and even those with special authorization in the Ministry of Commerce dare not do it like this raven manager.

But that's what they did, and they did it before they became the intelligence chief, why? The backstage is hard! On the surface, his backstage is the prince of the former intelligence director, who is the former intelligence director? It is the father-in-law of Andelt, who is known as the first general on which the sun never sets! And secretly the high-level know that 99% of the thoughts of the former intelligence director were tacitly acquiesced by Sun Lin himself, and the truth is true: Otherwise, what do you want? Not to mention that people don't get their wages every month, they also hand over some to the national treasury, which is called paying protection money, and besides, people's work efficiency is one of the best in intelligence, so no one can do it.

And when the head of the raven once again proved his ability after taking office, and after he was able to make tricks in front of Sun Lin, for such a person who was a loyal dog in front of himself and a vicious dog in front of his enemies, his identity was according to Sun Lin's private saying: "The most loyal lackey when the sun never sets!" I do need someone like that, though! Then, and then there was no then, this Raven Manager can be said to be the big celebrity in front of Sun Lin after Leo and George and the others.

"Judging from the intelligence of the Griffin Empire in the past ten years, there has been no time that has a more successful rate than this opportunity, as long as the princes of those Griffin Empires are not fools, they know that the Griffin Emperor's does not mean that they are already telling them, this is their last chance, if they miss it, the throne they dream of will never be touched by it again." Morse smiled: "The Griffin Emperor's move is completely a ploy, he hopes to be able to unite the entire Griffin Empire in the shortest possible time. ”

"Didn't he think about the mood of his favorite son?" Sun Lin asked, "Besides, even if the Griffin Emperor doesn't care, the Great Prince Allen himself will be removed from his status as the first heir in line." It is also a general who can really rank among the top few generals in the Griffon Empire with his strength, and the loss of a general is not something that can be recovered by the strength of a few legions. "A general is worth several legions, which may not be very obvious in a large empire like the sun never sets. But if it is replaced by some ordinary kingdom-level forces, this is true, because these forces do not have an army system and an officer academy on which the sun never sets, nor do they have thousands of years of background like the Holy Light Empire and the Griffin Empire, which have a star-studded background, and can be said to compare a legion to a human body, then the general is its brain, and does the human body that loses a brain really have combat effectiveness?

Although the Griffin Empire is star-studded, it also has a relatively backward command system compared to the army system on which the sun never sets. But if the head of a legion of the Griffon Empire is suddenly removed, then no matter how elite this army is, it will be paralyzed for several months, because even if a new general is transferred immediately. There is also a run-in period between the generals and the soldiers, not to mention that the armies of the three major imperial forces participating in the Battle of Maginot are basically in a half-crippled state, and the same is true for high-ranking officers, and the Grand Prince Allen is dead. There are simply no superfluous generals to take his place.

"Nope! On the contrary, I think that the decision was made from the beginning after the prince of Guò Allen. Prince Allen is now not only the trigger for the impending civil strife in the Griffon Empire, but also the flame that ignites the fuse for himself. Morse licked his lips: "I know that Your Majesty's understanding of this matter should be: After the Griffon Emperor knew that there was an undercurrent in the country, he decided to take Prince Allen out as a target and remove the hidden dangers within the Griffon Empire in one fell swoop, because the problems within the Griffon Empire are because there are too many princes in the Griffin Empire, and each has the ability to become the successor, although the Griffin Empire seems to be the side with the least losses in this Maginot battle, But it is precisely because of this that it gives those in the country the confidence to act. But I don't think you have thought about it. Prince Allen is also one of them. ”

"It's not that I haven't thought about it, but it's almost impossible." Sun Lin pondered for a moment and then said, "Alan. The Grand Prince of the Griffin Empire, the first heir to the throne, the territory under his rule is the most prosperous inland of the Griffon Empire, and it is also the largest breeding ground for the Griffin Empire of the Griffon Empire, in addition to Prince Allen, he went into battle when he was nearly 15 years old, and after a 13-year military career, he finally became the commander of the foreign army of the Royal Praetorian Guard of the Griffin Empire, and he is a general with an army of 100,000, but Alan is upright by nature and has a clear distinction between public and private, which has caused him to be unable to officially become the first heir to the throne. And it's just the first candidate for the throne to put it bluntly, Allen, he will lead the army and govern the country, but he doesn't know how to use people, and he doesn't understand the world, and if he takes the throne to someone like him, it may be helpful to the Griffin Empire, but it will make the nobles and elites of the Griffin Empire become a hidden danger to the empire, Morse, don't tell me that the prince of Allen suddenly opened up. ”

"But that's what it seems." Morse smiled: "According to a secret line on our intelligence network, just a week or so ago, the foreign troops of the Griffin Empire's Praetorian Guard received a certain order and headed towards Boken, the northern city of the Holy Light Empire, but in the process of moving forward, it was reported that they could not move forward due to the thunderstorm at the beginning of summer, and were forced to temporarily stay in the mountain forest area 400 kilometers away from Boken City, but it is said that there was a mudslide that night, and it seems that many people were missing." ”

"Is it missing or gone? Didn't the intelligence officers look into the matter in detail? Sun Lin frowned.

"I'm sorry, you know that our intelligence personnel can't really infiltrate the military high-level of the two empires at the moment, and we can only draw conclusions about this news after integrating some marginal information, but what's interesting is that our intelligence clan found some hidden traces of march 200 kilometers away from the camp of the Janissary Guard, with a number of about 5,000 people, and the direction of the march is Griffon Harbor from the traces."

"Bait on yourself? No, even if that Prince Allen thought of it, he wouldn't do it, this is not in line with his character Morse, now I'll deal with the upcoming meeting first, and you go to investigate this matter, if this matter is really as you think, then our future strategy can't be set on the original plan.
