Continental Warriors Yoo Ma

The basement of Notre-Dame de Vaughan, used as a makeshift mortuary, houses the remains of many English nobles.At this time, the iron door was pushed open with a creak, and two workers moved in a corpse.

Perhaps it was the cold and dark environment that made people feel terrified. As soon as the two workers entered the mortuary, they began to chant the name of Kaileen, the goddess of life and death.

"Although this job pays well and earns 6 dinars a day, it's really scary!"

"Be quiet, Barry! The wicked British arrived yesterday and awakened the souls of the war dead who had been sleeping in Sharon for thousands of years. It is said that the power of death has not disappeared. Let's not disturb the dead..."

Suddenly, the worker in front stumbled and fell to the ground.The shroud spread, and the corpse inside rolled out.

This is a scrawny man with a terrifying wound from his chest to his waist that makes his legs go soft.

The two workers held their breaths in fright and remained motionless.After a while, there was no supernatural event such as "resurrection of the dead", and it was relieved.

While blaming each other, they put the body back in the shroud, and then placed two coins over the dead man's eyes.

The man called Barry took a closer look and found that the wound on the corpse had been carefully sutured.

"It is said that this is an astrologer named Le Camus, who has betrayed His Royal Highness. However, the merciful His Royal Highness forgave him, and took the body and prepared to be buried in the monastery."

"Don't worry about that, just leave when you're done. Tonight I'm going to the pub for a good drink, or I'll be dreaming of these dead people in my sleep!"

The two workers scolded and left.

After the iron gate was closed, after an unknown amount of time, Le Camus' body suddenly moved.

A bulge bulged in the chest, then quickly swam to the abdomen and began to pound.

The sutures kept breaking apart, and finally, with a puff, the corpse cracked again, releasing rancid gas.

A pink mass of flesh popped out from the wound and scrambled to the side.

This wet, disgusting thing, after a careful search in the mortuary, found a suitable target - Bishop Beauvin, who was dressed in a silk robe and whose remains were meticulously repaired and indistinguishable from before his death.

The meat ball got into Bishop Beauvin's body from his mouth.

After a while, the bishop reached out his hand, removed the coin from his eye, and sat up.

"My Lord is merciful and gave me a second life! It seems that I don't need a boat to cross the Styx." He played with the coin in his hand and said to himself, "Who am I? The astrologer Le Camus? Or Pierre Cochon, Bishop of Beauvin? No, I should have an English name. Well, I'm Peter Cochon now."

After sitting for a while, Bishop Beauwen, who died and resurrected but had already changed his soul, finally sorted out the chaotic memory in his brain.

"A new world will come, and only believers will be saved."

After chanting the motto of the New World Order in a low voice, Bishop Beauvin stood up.He looked around, collected the coins that had been placed on the eyes of the other corpses, and left the morgue.

Taking advantage of the night, Bishop Beauvin escaped from Chalon, hired a fishing boat with the coins he collected, and went down the Marne River overnight.

Fortunately, after the first battle yesterday, in order to prevent another accident, the French army concentrated a large number of troops to Chalon, and there were few checkpoints along the way.

Two days later, Bishop Beauvin miraculously arrived in Paris.

At the gate of the city, after revealing his identity, the guards called a nobleman who recognized Bishop of Beauvin.

"Ah, Your Excellency, I didn't expect you to be alive! Bless the Seven Saints, this is the best news we have received after the fiasco of Chalon. Please come with me, the Duke of Bedford would certainly like to see you. "

The Bishop of Beauvin was taken to the Louvre.

At this time, the Louvre was not a classicist building that was later rebuilt, but a typical medieval castle.

The Bishop of Beauvin was taken to a luxurious room facing the Seine, where he was bathed and dressed by servants.Afterwards, they brought a variety of food and wine.

"Hmph, little trick. It seems that these British people are not fools, and they are very cautious. I will also pay attention to it in the future." Bishop Bowen picked up the glass and could feel the radiant energy hidden in the rose-colored wine in the glass.

Apparently, holy water was added to it.

The Duke of Bedford would have doubted the sudden return of the Bishop of Beauvin, who had been seen killed in battle, in Paris.

"It's just a little trick to identify evil creatures. It has no effect on me who has the blessing of the master." Bishop Bowen raised his head and drank the wine in one gulp.

He then savoured the food while admiring the view of the Seine from the window.

Looking at the peaceful and busy scene of Paris, Bishop Beauvin's irritability and resentment gradually accumulated in his heart.

"The ignorant insects, sooner or later, will be destroyed together with the old world!"

After about an hour, the Duke of Bedford finally appeared, perhaps because Bishop Beauvin did not have any abnormality due to drinking the holy water.

The Prince Regent's complexion is not very good, his eyes are bloodshot, his face is haggard, and he is no longer the firm and confident look he used to walk.

It seems that the Duke of Bedford was not doing well after the defeat in the Battle of Chalons.

"Good day, Your Honor." The Duke of Bedford sat opposite the Bishop of Beauvin.

"Good day, Your Excellency." Bishop Beauvin put down the tableware.

After a moment of silence, Bishop Beauvin asked, "How is Sir Fastov?"

"Return to England and prepare to be questioned by the parliament." Duke Bedford showed a bitter smile, "Party lost, and I helped him. However, the responsibility for Sharon's defeat this time must be held by someone. I have no guarantees for myself now. Feel, not to mention Fastov."

"I can't really blame Sir Fastov, he's done his best. Who would have thought such an accident could happen on the battlefield."

The Duke of Bedford shook his head and said, "It's pointless to say this now. Life has to go on, and the situation we are facing is very difficult. Do you have any advice?"

The Parish of Beauvin in Reims has been occupied by France, and Bishop of Beauvin, like Mayouf, is also a "landless".However, he was not only a high-ranking cleric, but also the president of the University of Paris, an adviser to Henry VI, who played a pivotal role in maintaining British rule in France.

Bishop Beauvin's survival from the battlefield is undoubtedly good news for the Duke of Bedford.He also needs the bishop's useful advice to maintain England's increasingly precarious rule in France.

Bishop Beauvin didn't think much, so he told the other party about his plan to escape to Paris.

"We should immediately invite His Royal Highness to Paris to complete his coronation and become King of France!"

Chapter 110 Five Two Crowns

"Coronation? We don't have any extra money for a coronation right now. And Paris isn't safe," said the Duke of Bedford.

He also knew that England had lost its biggest ally, Burgundy, and suffered a major defeat. The most important thing to do now is to stabilize people's hearts.

It is necessary to give confidence to the English nobles who have fiefs in northern France, to prove that this war can still be fought and that there is still a possibility of victory.

Also have to appease the French living under English rule.Put out their impetuous thoughts and continue to honor Henry VI as the orthodox holder of the French throne.

It is the best way to let the king of England come to Paris, hold a coronation ceremony and become the king of France.

Legitimacy at least +30.

But as the Duke of Bedford said, it's hard to do.

No money, no soldiers.

Bishop Beauvin could only analyze the Duke of Bedford one by one: "The problem of money is easy to solve, and we can obtain a considerable wealth from the merchants in the lowlands."

"We have been betrayed by the Burgundians, how can we get money from the lowland merchants?" The Duke of Bedford didn't believe it.

"Not in Paris, but in London." Bishop Beauvin said the key point.

The wool trade between England and the Lowlands is the strongest economic link between the two countries.Many textile merchants travel between Britain and the Lowlands all the year round, and have many assets in London.

Although the British people are far away from the French battlefield, they are also very concerned about the Hundred Years War.Whenever the war began, the peasants in the countryside would spontaneously gather in the church to pray for the king and the army.In the market square, as soon as any new news about the war is announced, there will also be countless people watching.

Soldiers who returned from France and made a fortune are heroes and idols in the eyes of people.In every pub from London to York, bards sang poetry about the war.

Not only France, but also the national common memory of England was gradually shaped in this war.

Therefore, when the news of the Faber peace came back to England, the common people would definitely be very resentful of the perfidious Burgundians.

With a little incitement and guidance, the angry people will become the sharpest butcher's knives.

When Philip III made peace with France, he would not, like the responsible foreign ministry in later generations, issue a notice of going abroad in advance, warning businessmen of the increased risk of going to England in the near future.

If the businessman who is clamoring to expand his power every day is unlucky, the duke might be able to eat two more baguettes for dinner and evening.

After the Burgundian merchants who were in London and knew nothing about the political changes were bloodbathed by the angry English people, the royal family could take the opportunity to calm down the riots and maintain order to confiscate all the assets of the Burgundian merchants.

It was a good idea, but too vicious and should not have been proposed by a well-respected bishop.

The Duke of Bedford looked at the pale and gloomy face of Bishop Beauvin, and a faint coldness rose in his heart.But he considered it again and again, and still agreed with Bishop Beauvin's plan.

"As for the military disadvantage, it's actually not as bad as outsiders think. Your Excellency Duke, you should know best." Bishop Beauvin said again.

Although England suffered a crushing defeat at the Battle of Chalons and lost [-] troops, if you look carefully after the war, you will find that the sky has not collapsed.

First of all, the military expenses for launching this campaign were partly paid by the Ottoman Sultan, and the other part came from donations from England.Now the Duke of Bedford had some money left over for his army.

In addition, the lost troops were mainly from militiamen in various cities, as well as woolen soldiers.

It's a good thing that the woolen soldiers in the troubled villages died, and it saved a lot of commissions.

And the English nobles who had fiefs in France still had some troops on hand.

Of course, it is basically impossible to gather these armies from different places and launch another battle in a short period of time.However, England has not reached the point where manpower is exhausted and must learn from the head of state to follow the "wheelchair pioneer combat theory".

You must know that even if the "Treaty of Arras" was signed on the historical line before Ma Youfu crossed, France and Burgundy negotiated peace and could concentrate their forces against England.The British army also held on for a full 15 years in Northern France before being completely driven out.

This is more than twice as long as the German occupation of France in World War II.

"We have more defenses, but we don't have the strength to attack. Charles VII is also facing a similar situation..." Bishop Beauvin continued to analyze the Duke of Bedford.

The French army won a big victory. The leader of this battle, the Count of Rouen, Mayoufu, and his comrade Joan of Arc, were naturally the biggest winners.

Not only will their prestige rise to the next level, but they can also earn a fortune by capturing them as captives and loot.

You know, the Earl of Warwick alone has an annual income of five thousand pounds.His ransom must have exceeded 50 livres.

Compared with Yofu Ma, who had a good harvest in both face and lining, Charles VII was even worse.

The victory over England boosted the morale of the people.Negotiate peace with Burgundy, and from now on do not have to face enemies on all sides.

But so what?The king is still very poor.Charles VII wanted to maintain the dignity of the king and continue to live a comfortable life, then there was no money to continue the war.

Unless he is willing to continue living a hard and simple life as before, using all resources to support the army.

But it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. With the indecisive character of Charles VII, it is difficult to grit your teeth and go back to the past.Not to mention, he has a beautiful lover who is used to a luxurious life to appease.

In the spring, most of the French troops recruited to defend the meeting of the celestial spheres will be disbanded to save military expenses.Britain and France are like two exhausted duelists. Even if they want to kill each other, they are helpless and can only sit on the ground and stare at each other.

The two sides are likely to maintain a state of small-scale conflict.This situation will continue for several years until one party solves its financial problems and is able to recruit an army of more than 5000 people to launch a new offensive.

After listening to Bishop Beauvin's analysis, the anxious look on Duke Bedford's face faded a little.He said: "Thank you for clarifying my doubts, Your Excellency. I have been so devastated by the disastrous defeat in the battle of Chalon for the past two days that I have no time to think about other things. Now it seems that the situation is not as bad as I thought. There is still room for recovery. I will seriously consider the matter of crowning the king."

Seeing that he had moved the Duke of Bedford, Bishop of Beauvin, who was occupied by the soul of Le Camus, was ecstatic, and almost chanted the name of the evil god.

The fundamental reason why he encouraged England to launch the Battle of Chalons was to get the blood of the two monarchs.

The final ritual can only be initiated by using the blood of two nobles as a sacrifice.

Now that the plan for France has failed, targeting King Henry VI of England is also a viable option.

When Henry VI was crowned King of France in Paris, he had two crowns.That cowardly and innocent boy, the blood of one person is equivalent to two monarchs, and can also be used as a ritual sacrifice.
