Chapter 1416: The Luolin Empire Surrenders Unconditionally

After arriving in Tuli, the nobles had already begun to prepare for their actions.

After arriving in Tuli, they first used their connections to secretly bribe Tuli's garrison and the guards in the palace.

Because Bella sent almost all of the country's military forces to Orleans, there were only a few soldiers left in Tuli, so the nobles easily controlled all the armed forces in Tuli.

Whether they can control all the armed forces in Tuli and the palace is directly related to whether their actions can succeed.

As long as they can control all the armed forces in Tuli and the palace, the next thing will be much easier.

And controlling all the armed forces in Tuli and the palace is actually not difficult to do.

All you need is connections and a lot of money.

Connections can help you get in touch with all the commanders in charge of the troops in Tuli.

Money can help you bribe them.

More than 90% of people in the world can be bribed with money - this is an eternal truth.

And connections and money are the things that the nobles have the least.

They completed the bribery of all armed forces in the city and the palace the day before yesterday.

They decided to take action immediately yesterday to control Tuli and the central government of the Rolin Empire.

The reason for such a quick action is that they are afraid that some people will suddenly regret after receiving their money and inform Queen Bella and others.

While bribing all the armed forces in the city and the palace, the nobles are also actively preparing to mobilize troops.

The noble fiefdoms closest to Tuli are the fiefdoms of Duke Fadili and Duke Oppel.

These two great dukes have already ordered their private troops to be ready to advance to Tuli at any time and completely control Tuli.

Hold the royal family headed by Bella hostage, subdue all the ministers in the central government who may not submit to them, and let their private armed forces enter Tuli.

As long as the above three points are achieved, they can completely control Tuli and the central government of the Rolin Empire.

And now - they have completed the first point: holding the royal family headed by Bella hostage.

The nobles split into two groups.

One group went straight to Bella Bathhouse and controlled Bella who was bathing in the bathhouse.

Another group went straight to the palace to capture the rest of the palace members.

Because they had bought almost all the armed forces in the city and the palace early on, the two groups of people completed their respective tasks easily.

Hostage the royal family members headed by Bella, and control those ministers who might not be willing to submit to them - these two actions were actually carried out at the same time.

There are many ministers in the central government, all of whom are their nobles.

These ministers are either born of nobles.

Or they have received the grace of nobles, or have a very close relationship with nobles.

These ministers are more willing to listen to the orders of their respective nobles than the imperial orders.

Of course - there must be some ministers who are the direct descendants of the emperor and do not belong to any noble family.

And these people are the focus of the nobles.

Teams of garrison soldiers who have been bought by the nobles rushed into the mansions of these ministers and controlled all of them.

These ministers were tied up and controlled before they realized what was happening.

The private troops of the two dukes, the Duke of Faridli and the Duke of Oppel, also began to march, leaving their fiefdoms and heading straight towards Tuli...

...

...

After a chaotic night, Tuli City finally gradually regained its calm.

Because the plans made by the nobles were particularly thorough, their actions were quite successful.

All the royal family members headed by Bella were captured alive.

Those who might not submit to them and surrender to the Britannia Empire with them were also captured alive.

Afterwards, the nobles had to do much easier.

After completely controlling Tuli, the first thing the nobles did was to issue an edict to all parts of the country in the name of Queen Bella.

This edict, which was circulated throughout the country, was not short.

To sum up the content of this not-so-short edict, it is-

This all-out war with the Britannia Empire is over! The Empire will surrender unconditionally! All the armies in the country stop resisting!

Since this edict will be spread all over the country, it will naturally be spread to Orleans, the most important city in the Roland Empire.

…

…

When this surrender edict was delivered to Orleans, all the senior generals of Orleans were holding a military meeting on how to further strengthen Orleans's defense.

Jeanne was also present at the time.

Barr, who didn't know the specific content of this edict, hung it on the wall like a map and browsed through it with all the generals present...

…

…

Barr no longer remembered what his reaction was after reading this sudden edict.

Because the content of this edict was really unbelievable, Barr was shocked and fell into a trance, and he was not sober at all.

After a long time, Barr gradually recovered from this trance.

After recovering from the trance, the first thing Barr did was to wail.

"Your Majesty! We still have the strength to fight. We are willing to fight for the country until the last moment! Why did you surrender?"

After hearing Bal's wailing, all the generals present became more serious...

Bahl actually completely blamed Bella...

The surrender edict was not issued by Bella...

Bahl, who was far away in Orleans, did not know that when he led his army to defend Orleans, Tuli had undergone earth-shaking changes...

Just when everyone was at a loss for what to do with the sudden surrender edict, a message was delivered, making them even more at a loss.

The message was that the Britannia Army in the north had begun to move!

Since the great defeat with tens of thousands of casualties, the Britannia Army, which had been silent for a long time, finally began to move.

The 200,000-strong army was divided into three routes and headed straight for Orleans.

According to the content of the surrender edict, they should open the gates of Orleans, lay down all the weapons in hand, and let the Britannia army take over the city.

But the generals in Orleans did not dare to believe that the edict was true.

Although it was printed with the real imperial seal, they still did not believe that the edict was true.

While actively preparing for the battle, they hurriedly sent envoys to Tully, intending to let the envoys go to Tully to find out what happened in Tully and why they suddenly issued a surrender edict when the country still had the strength to fight.
