This center of England's rule in France, although it experienced a siege led by Joan of Arc not long ago, the wounds of the war have not fully recovered, but it still shows a somewhat prosperous atmosphere.
The three lion flags of the Gorse family were whistling in the cold wind of the night. Le Camus tightened his robes, showed a document to the city gate officer, and entered the city smoothly.
He led his entourage to a tavern near the University of Paris.
In the tavern that had already closed, a group of well-dressed bigwigs gathered - they were either nobles, big businessmen, or high-ranking clergy.
The leader was Peter Cauhon, Bishop of Beauvin.
"Coming all the way from Chinon, thank you for your hard work, Your Excellency Le Camus." Peter Corhon greeted him and sat down, pouring himself a cup of hot honey.
Le Camus was the favorite of Charles VII, he was trusted, and he was greedy and shameless, so he was naturally the key target of England's corruption.The two sides have kept in touch.
Upon learning of Le Camus's defection, Bishop Beauvin wrote immediately inviting him to come to Paris.
The information the other party has is undoubtedly extremely valuable.
Le Camus took off his cloak, sat down at the table, drank the hot honey in one breath, and exhaled with relief.
"Your Excellency Le Camus, do you have any news about the peace between France and Burgundy?" Bishop Beauvin asked impatiently.
"I left on the day Mayouf returned to Chinon." Le Camus shook his head.
The demise of Ian Gaskill's woolen soldier made Le Camus realize that the other party was likely to find himself through the clues on the gray-faced man.
So, Le Camus decided to cause chaos when he entered the city and killed him.
But it backfired.Although many people in Chinon's court colluded with the New World Order for power and wealth, they did not form a strict and efficient organization.In order to keep secrets, acting with hands and feet, and planning hastily, the assassination in the end became a joke.
Realizing that things could not be undone, Le Camus immediately abandoned the rights and wealth he had acquired in France for a long time, and ran lightly.
From this point of view, I have to admire his decisiveness.
When Le Camus arrived in Paris, news of Charles VII's decision to make a formal peace with Burgundy and to start a mission had spread all over the place.
Parisians are panicking.
That year, the Parisians revolted and killed thousands of Armagnac supporters before the Burgundians took over the city.Afterwards, the Duke of Burgundy was afraid that Henry V, who would take Agincourt's victory, ceded Paris to the British.
When the King of England entered the city, the citizens of Paris welcomed him, and the priests sang hymns.Paris’ three-tier parliaments were quick to recognize the Troyes Agreement — as humiliating as the Compiègne Armistice signed in 1940.The Supreme Court immediately declared Charles VII, then Dauphin, unable to inherit the throne because of "horrific and vicious crimes".
After this series of operations, the city has completely sided with the UK.After that, Paris also organized a civic army several times to join the English side and fight against France.
It is worthy of being an old revolutionary base, and there is a way to resist the rule of the French king.
But now, things have changed.
Without the great enemy of Burgundy, Charles VII will definitely, definitely, definitely, gather all his forces to recapture the city.
So, will he punish the Parisians who betrayed him and have always been enemies?
The answer is probably not so optimistic.
"The witches of Lorraine will turn us all into wild boars!"
"Women are caught to be prostitutes, and men are sent to boats to be rowing slaves!"
"Children, washed and stewed with radishes and onions. The evil Charles VII eats three children at banquets every day!"
Such outrageous rumors spread everywhere in Paris.
Although the Bishop of Beauvin would not believe the lies of these foolish people, he also understood that if France and Burgundy were really reconciled, Paris would not be able to hold back sooner or later.
He will do everything possible to defend the city that symbolizes the glory of Henry V.
"Sir Bishop, although I can't bring the latest news from Chinon. But I have a plan that you will definitely be interested in." The corners of Le Camus' lips twitched.
Bishop Beauvin made a "please speak" gesture.
"This peace negotiation is extremely important and affects the fate of the two countries. However, there is an extreme lack of trust between Charles VII and Philip III. Therefore, there must be a very solemn peace negotiation, announced to the world, and attended by the two monarchs in person. Only the meeting can give sufficient credibility to the peace treaty between the two countries."
"You mean..." Bishop Bowen shuddered.
He saw the surging madness in Le Camus' eyes.
Chapter 39 Pasha in the City of Paris
Le Camus continued on his own: "If we can kill the two monarchs, what else do we need to worry about? Even if France and Burgundy still make a treaty afterwards, it will not threaten England. With all due respect, Charles VII and Philip The third kings are all wise rulers that your Henry VI cannot match. But their heirs, who are still immature, are far from the opponents of the Duke of Bedford, the regent. Of course, if there is an infighting in the transfer of power between the two countries, the new king will If it doesn't work out, that's even better."
Killing Charles VII and Philip III in one meeting was a tempting idea, and one that would solve everything.
But is it feasible?
The Parisian bigwigs here are very skeptical.
"Your Excellency, the location of such an important meeting must be carefully selected, with safety as the top priority. If the two sides choose to sign the contract in Toulouse, do we have to travel across most of France to attack the fortified castle?"
In the face of the opposition and doubts, Le Camus was unmoved: "Everyone, I can answer your questions one by one."
He pointed to himself and said, "I am an astrologer. Through detailed observations and inferences on the starry sky, it is easy to know the place of peace talks agreed upon by both parties."
"I haven't heard that astrologers are proficient in prophecy." Bishop Beauvin said.
"It's not a prophecy." Le Camus shook his head, "All the astrologers who look up at the stars on this land know that this winter, the celestial bodies will meet. And I, as a leader among astrologers, have already speculated that the entire The exact location where the celestial bodies meet in France."
The biggest feature of the celestial bodies meeting is uncertainty.
A celestial meeting may only bring some harmless flowers and plants to this world, or it may bring a terrifying dragon, or a ruthless army.
So to be on the safe side, when astrologers predict where the celestial bodies will meet, the kings will mostly stay away from those places.
"The meeting place between the two monarchs this time will not be in the south, where is the stronghold of the Armagnac faction. Nor will it be in the west, where it is too far from Burgundy." Le Camus analyzed it carefully for everyone, "This place must be within a distance acceptable to both sides. In this winter, there will be no celestial encounters. And it is safe enough."
With so many constraints, with exclusion, there are not many options left.
"This peace negotiation will inevitably involve a large-scale mobilization of human and material resources. No matter how good the confidentiality is, there will be clues. As long as we keep an eye on the possible options, we will be able to know the exact location."
Le Camus took out a map of France, pointed to a place and said, "In my personal judgment, this is the most likely location for the Faber peace talks."
"Sharon." Someone said the place name in a low voice.
This is a place name with strong historical significance.In 451 AD, Aetius, the Roman commander known as "the last Roman", and Attila, the whip of God, fought an epic battle here, which decided the fate of the two empires.
Perhaps, nearly 1000 years later, there will also be a battle here that will determine the fate of England, France, and the third country of Burgundy?
Just when everyone was fascinated, Bishop Bovin brought them back to reality.
"Even if we know the location of the peace talks, what should we do? Send assassins?"
Assassination?This requires the support of a vast intelligence network to find holes in the enemy's defenses.It is also necessary to select suitable assassins and conduct targeted training.
This is a long process that requires patience.
But what England lacks most right now is time.
"No, if the assassin is used, even if it is successful, this kind of murder of two great monarchs at one time will definitely be spurned by the church and other countries. Even the nobles of England will object to this. We should organize an attack, Defeat the enemy on the battlefield."
"Hehe, I agree with the first half of your sentence, but I disagree with the second half." A wealthy businessman laughed, "I will raise a most realistic question, which I hope you can solve, Mr. Le Camus. Where does the military budget come from? ?"
The Duke of Bedford, who was staying in Paris, thoughtful and loyal to the king, should have supported the plan.But he has no money.
Because of England's brutal rule in northern France, the rebellion continued one after another, and the cost of governance continued to rise, and no tax was received.
And to collect money from the native English nobility, you have to persuade parliament to raise taxes.But they were not very concerned about things in France, and more worried about whether the savage Scots would go south this winter.
It's not very likely either.
In the face of questioning, Le Camus' face was still full of confidence.He stood up and motioned for the attendant who had been behind him to come to the table.
"Gentlemen, allow me to introduce you to a friend who can solve your problems."
The "attendant" took off his hood, and the illusion of hiding his true appearance was lifted, revealing his brown skin and black beard.
boom!
The big people who were sitting upright suddenly got up, and some people were panicked and wanted to find weapons.
"Ottomans!"
"pagan!"
"Le Camus, what are you thinking!"
"Calm down, gentlemen," said Le Camus. "If you are more loyal to Rome, you can report to me at once. If you are more loyal to London, then listen to the Sultan's envoy, Mr. Ali, what he has to say."
The tense situation in the tavern finally eased.
In this era, France was not the "big dutiful son" who had to form a blasphemous alliance with the Ottoman Empire because it was surrounded by Habsburgs.
More than 30 years ago, the Crusaders led by France and Hungary fought a battle with the Ottoman Empire in Nicopolis.
In the eyes of today's Ottoman sultans, France is the potentially most threatening enemy of the Seven Holy Orders.If there is an opportunity to weaken or even destroy the country, the Ottomans will never let it pass.
"Your Majesty the Generous Sultan is willing to support [-] ducats to recruit troops for you. If one day, His Majesty the Sultan, who is the sword of the true God, can come to Paris, he will definitely ennoble you as Pashas and rule this rich city forever."
Although the pie of the Sudanese envoy was well drawn, no one believed that what he said would come true.
Pasha in Paris?
Do not make jokes.
Seeing the disapproval of everyone, after Ali and Le Camus looked at each other, they nodded and decided to release another shocking story.
The two asked the other tall attendants to also take off their robes with illusion spells.
Several terrifying warriors wearing horn helmets, holding battle axes, and full of savage slaughter momentum, suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
Chapter 40 The Viking Age
"Vikings?" Looking at the appearance of the strong men in front of him, Bishop Bowen had the illusion of traveling through time and space.
With an angry look on his face, he said, "Lord Le Camus, what are you joking about? Unfortunately, I cannot understand your strange sense of humor."
Le Camus was not in a hurry, pointed at Ali and said, "Let a friend from Anatolia explain this matter."
Ali tells the origins of these Viking warriors in blunt French.
When Sultan Bayezid I besieged Constantinople in 1391, he captured several Norsemen.
They are from the famous Varangian Guard.
But these Nordics are a bit strange.They are not Norwegians, Danes, but call themselves Vikings.They do not believe in the Seven Saints, but worship some strange gods they have never seen before.
When a Ulema was discussing beliefs with these Vikings, he got some very bizarre, untrue information.
More than 400 years ago, a Viking named Leif Erickson discovered a warm and fertile land in the south of Greenland and named it "Vinland".
The Vikings then sailed south from Vinland and encountered a powerful empire.After the defeat, the Viking captives had to change their beliefs and abandon the Seven Sages.
