With the Rose Knights as the core, they were reorganized into the seventh, eighth, and ninth armies of the Evernight Army.

Guard the eastern front of the Broken Vein Defense Line and the Mist Defense Line.

So far, although no large-scale war has broken out between the two sides, small-scale frictions and conflicts have never stopped, especially along the Jacob River.

Control of the Jacob's River waters is the focus of contention between the two sides.

After all, the two core royal capitals of the New Royal Court, Valesta and St. Eden, are both located on the lower reaches of the Jacob River.

Once the warships led by the Yongye Army go down the river, they will pose a direct threat to both.

Let alone trade, even if a sampan floats down from the upper reaches, the New Royal Court will be highly nervous.

It can be said that the Yongye Army Leader's trade in the Byron Alliance has suffered a devastating blow. The only semi-secret trade with the Huayu Plateau has also been greatly restricted. At least for sensitive materials such as food, there is no way

Bulk trade.

This is also the reason why Sean previously saw the ship production line on the Donau River and the prosperous maritime trade in the East China Sea.

The severe business and trade situation in the Ashan Continent has caused the huge team of merchants that the Yongye Army has spent nearly two decades to build up, facing the crisis of unemployment.

They have already tasted the benefits of predatory foreign trade, and there is no way they can go back to the petty fights of the past.

The discovery of the East African Islands allowed them to discover new business opportunities, and it was inevitable to shift their attention to this.

As for not having enough experience in merchant ships and maritime trade.

For a group with deep pockets, this is nothing to worry about.

Even if there is no policy, they will force it for the benefit of the future, not to mention that for future development, the Yongye Army Leader will inevitably introduce support policies in this area and build its own assembly line shipyard to solve more and more problems in the future.

The problem of using ships.

If there is a slight policy inclination in the territory, a large amount of liquidity will be injected, and an unimaginable shipbuilding assembly line will be built in just a few years.

Compared with conventional war, what is more intense is the public opinion war between the two sides.

Under Sean's guidance and influence, the Yongye Army leader has always attached great importance to this aspect.

The Holy Ether Church, an important part of the New Royal Court, also started from this - faith can also be regarded as a part of public opinion, and both parties are controlling the thoughts of ordinary people.

The New Royal Court continued to demonize Sophilia, denigrating her as a traitor, and led the barbarians of Andis in an attempt to steal the rule of the Byron Alliance.

The most important crime was, of course, colluding with the leader of the Yongye Army to plot the murder of King Laurie ten years ago.

The leader of the Eternal Night Army denounced the Holy Ether Church for using its faith to fool the world, trying to replace the royal power with divine power, and steal the Lancelot royal family's supreme rule over the Byron Alliance.

And they questioned the story of King Laurie they announced. They were trying to divert the public's attention and cover up the shocking conspiracy behind it.

Anyway, everyone has his own rhetoric.

Sophilia herself firmly believed that the death of her brother King Laurie was not an accident, but was planned by St. George and Queen Enid of the Holy Ether Church.

According to their secret investigation, there have been great differences between King Laurie and Pope St. George regarding the war with the Theodian Empire and the Conclave of Witches.

The biggest disagreement is over military power.

King Laurie believed that the Saint Ether Holy See's penetration of military power was too serious and that concessions had to be made. This kind of matter could not be completely left to the divine power. It was more appropriate for him, as the king, to control it.

How could the Holy See of Saint Ether, which had already tasted the delicious taste of power, let it go?

A few months before King Lowry's incident, the two sides had just had a fierce dispute over this matter. It was said that King Lowry was preparing to draft a restrictive bill in response to this matter to limit the unbridled expansion of the Saint Ether Church.

King Laurie had been beneficial to the development of the Saint Ether Church in the past, and the Saint Ether Church naturally recognized and supported him from top to bottom.

Now that this puppet has awakened its self-awareness and has become a stumbling block for their further development, it is natural that it will be kicked away without hesitation.

Especially when Queen Enid was already confirmed to be pregnant, this decision was not difficult to make.

After all, what the Holy See needs is a well-known and upright reason.

Compared to a puppet like King Laurie that has begun to get out of control, an unborn fetus is undoubtedly a better choice.

As soon as King Lowry died, the so-called bill he proposed naturally disappeared.

What's even more wonderful is that this baby will be shrouded in the holy light of the Holy See from the moment it is born, and it will inevitably become an extremely devout believer.
