Continental Warriors Yoo Ma

Pastor Milot deliberately spared the others because Philip III personally explained that if he was not allowed to go out, he had to tell Yofu Ma.

"Lord Marquis, what do you think of Princess Mary?"

Marie de Burgundy, daughter of Philip III?

Youfu Ma thought for a while, and decided to reply to the other party with polite and polite words.

"I've only met Princess Mary once, and I don't know much. But as others have said, her beauty is impressive."

"That's good." Pastor Milot nodded, straight to the point, "Princess Mary will be 14 years old soon, and she has reached the age to marry. For this birthday party, many young nobles will come to Ghent. Among them are princes and dukes. Son. But the Lord Duke still prefers you, Lord Ma Youfu."

What?

Philip III wants to recruit me as a son-in-law?Then I will write color novels for him in the future, will he be embarrassed to read it?

Uh, maybe it's really good.

Well, putting aside such trivial questions, after thinking about Philip III's motives carefully, it is still possible to understand why he made this decision.

In aristocratic marriages, interests must come first.Philip III wanted to marry Princess Mary to Youf Ma because it was a huge profit.

Philip III is the richest monarch in Europe, and her daughter must not be married to an obscure little aristocrat.At the very least, it must be from a Duke family.

Of course, as a powerful and rich unmarried Marquis of France, Yoof Ma must also be within the scope of Princess Mary's mate selection.

If Princess Mary can marry Yoof Ma, the biggest benefit that Philip III will get is to bury a big thunder next to Charles VII.

The marriage of the great aristocrats in the country and the monarchs of powerful neighboring countries who are known to be hostile will form a terrifying political force. I am afraid that Charles VII will be frightened and sleepless just thinking about it.

Philip III tried his best to contain France, even at the expense of his daughter.

No way, who says Burgundy can't beat both Britain and France?

England won the Hundred Years' War, and Philip III had to worry about the emergence of such a behemoth as the Anglo-French dual kingdom.

France won the Hundred Years' War, and Philip III also had to beware of this neighboring country, whose strength was greatly increased after reunification.

No matter which side the UK and France choose, Burgundy's future will not be easy.

Since France will definitely win the Hundred Years War in the foreseeable future, then Philip III will naturally start planning ahead to contain this growing blue monster.

In addition to Ma Youfu, maybe Philip III is already sending gifts to powerful French nobles such as Alençon, Bourbon, Orleans, Armagnac, and Foix to draw up relations.

Marrying Marie and winning such a powerful ally in Burgundy was also a good deal for Yoof Ma.The only concern was how Charles VII would react to it.

Although the Dharma King is flawed in character, he is not a fool. How could he be indifferent to this political marriage that threatens him greatly?

Yofu Ma has just acquired a huge amount of power that is eye-catching, and it is time to keep a low profile.If you suddenly marry the Duke of Burgundy again, I really don't know how Charles VII will react.

If the King of France felt that the threat of Yoof Ma was too great and beyond his tolerance, he would definitely sell enough benefits to unite the various factions of the French court to deal with this new marquis who dared to communicate with foreign countries.

Queen Yolande is a hard-line political woman, and it is impossible for her to be unconditionally friendly to Youfu Ma just because of the Queen's relationship.And the palace minister.Don't look at this fat man who has to rely on Youfu Ma now, but if there is a chance, he will definitely bite back.

And can't forget the British.They would certainly be willing to step up and help Charles VII bring down the close-knit warring faction of Yoo Ma and Joan of Arc.

If you are too complacent, after "boiled with oil on fire and flowers with brocade", I am afraid that "it ends up in a white and really clean".

Chapter 120 Three Uncanny Craftsmanship

"It's my honor to be favored by the Duke, and I also admire Princess Mary. However, specific matters still need to be negotiated slowly." Yofu Ma finally decided to answer Priest Milot with a more cautious attitude.

Don't look at what the other party said so nicely, what "the Duke still prefers you" and so on.Maybe Philip III said something similar to every qualified suitor.

Oh, the mouth of a nobleman.

As a powerful and rich Marquis of France, Youf Ma still has many options for marriage, and he does not necessarily need to be hanged on the tree of Mary in Burgundy.

For example, a York or Lancaster woman would be a good candidate.If the War of the Roses breaks out in the future, he can still use this as a reason to intervene.Wouldn't it be nice to be a regent of England then?

It is also good to marry an Italian.I heard that the Duke of Milan has a beautiful and dignified daughter.

Or look southwest and marry a Castilian princess.

The current King of Castile is Juan II, and his son Enrique is the heir to the zero attribute of Castile in "European Land and Cloud 4".

After Enrique was crowned, he was known as Enrique IV, nicknamed "The Incompetent".This is because His Royal Highness the King cannot stand up, satisfy his wife, and give birth to an heir - the underlying reason for this phenomenon is that Enrique is actually gay.

He was unable to satisfy his wife, so that the queen cheated and kept getting divorced.The unstable king's marriage has thrown the political situation of Castile into chaos.Moreover, the king favors his face, indulges in fencing, ignores the state affairs, and does nothing in state affairs.The Sultanate of Granada, which had already been beaten and retreated steadily, was in a corner, and the sultanate of Granada, which was prone to civil strife, was able to survive until Queen Isabella came to power, and Castile and Aragon were united before they were destroyed. Thanks to the help of this King Enrique IV.

If Yoof Ma can marry the daughter of King Juan II, he might have the opportunity to oust King Enrique IV and enter Iberia in the future.

Of course, if you let your imagination run wild, it would be a good choice to marry a Byzantine princess.

Maybe after Constantinople played "ceddin_deden", Yofu Ma could still spend money to buy the title of Roman Emperor.

This is called walking Maozi's way, leaving Maozi with nowhere to go.

All in all, Mayouf's marriage to Burgundy, although lucrative, is not the only option.

Pastor Milot also sensed the other party's attitude from the words of Yoof Ma's husband.

He did not continue the topic, but only mentioned Ghent for further details.

In the evening, after the lingering, Youfu Ma, who was lying on the bed with Vera in his arms, waited for the system prompt.

January 1431 came.

Last month he accomplished many achievements and earned a lot of points.

One of the most important achievements is "from the Three Kingdoms to the Northern and Southern Dynasties".

This is a special achievement involving the Hundred Years' War.To achieve this, it is necessary to withdraw Burgundy from the war, and to change the pattern of the Hundred Years War from a tripartite confrontation to a rivalry between Britain and France.After the Chalon Conference ended and the news of the Faber peace spread across Europe, the system determined that Yof Ma had accomplished this achievement.

With this special achievement alone, Yoo Ma earned 500 administrative points, 500 diplomatic points, and 500 military points.

Now, he has 1220 administrative points, 1255 diplomatic points, and 1010 military points.

And the items refreshed in the system store this time are also quite useful, and Ma Youfu bought them all in one go.

They are a 700-liter capacity dimensional bag worth 1000 administrative points, a "full-scheme nano-healing robot capsule" worth 550 diplomatic points, and a "magic magic wand" worth [-] military points.

Needless to say, the dimension bag, the standard props in the fantasy world, the capacity of [-] liters is equivalent to a double-door refrigerator, which is quite enough.

An Wen was not by his side. Orc, the orc who served as the human-shaped storage bag, lost a lot of vitality by the blow of Attila's ghost, and is still recuperating.Getting this dimension bag can greatly facilitate your daily life.

As an artificer, many spells have to be cast through matter as a medium, causing Yoof Ma to bring a lot of things with him at all times.It would be even more troublesome if there was a sudden battle.

Now with the dimensional bag, most of the problems are solved.The grenade gun and the required ammunition do not need to be carried by a special person, and can be used at any time.

As for the most expensive "full-scheme nanotherapy robot capsule", it probably belongs to the technology in the category of "Stars".This small capsule is a panacea that cures all ailments, and it is also excellent to keep it on hand to be prepared.

And the "Magic Staff", although the price is the lowest, but in Ma Youfu's opinion, if used properly, it is the most powerful prop among the three items.

This wand is actually a magic circle that realizes the function of "supernatural craftsmanship" by converting magic power.

Ghostcraft is a five-level transmutation school spell that converts up to 10 cubic feet (0.28 cubic meters) of solid raw material into items of the same material.

what is this?The caster who takes this wand is a high-end 3D printer driven by magic power and controlled by the human brain!

With it, many metal processing technologies far beyond the current level can be realized!

He left the bedroom and went to the study next door, ready to try the effect of this staff.

Yoof Ma pulls out the Colt revolver.If the plan goes well, this weapon that has been used as a collectible for a long time may be able to play its value again.

Opening the magazine, he poured out the three bullets inside.

These bullets were reloaded bullets made by Yoof Ma after the war at Sharon, which had been collected from the Viking longship.

It took a long time to find a rune mage who was skilled in magic control and could create bullets with metal shaping.

Then, Mayoufu also engraved a flamethrower on the cartridge case to replace the primer.

Because the quality of the bullet casing was not large enough and the stability of carrying the magic power was not good, Ma Youfu failed three times in the process of engraving the magic mark on the bullet casing, and three bullet casings were scrapped.

Due to the quality of gunpowder and the processing accuracy of the final reloading projectile, Ma Youfu did not know how powerful it was, so he just kept it for the time being.

Let the attendant find copper and lead blocks overnight, and Yofu Ma took out his staff.

Infuse magic power into the staff, and the dark blue light immediately shines on the metal block.Youfu Ma concentrated his energy and shaped the raw material according to the shape of the bullet on the table.

After about 15 minutes, a copper bullet casing was made.

It is easier to make the warhead with lead, and it only takes 3 minutes.

But at this time, Yoof Ma's magic power was also exhausted.

"When I am full of magic power, I can perform two supernatural craftsmanship. Because of the holy emblem of the goddess of life, my magic power recovers faster, and it can be replenished in four hours. Except for sleeping time, I can perform eight supernatural craftsmanship a day. However, The magic engraving on the bullet casing has half the scrap rate..."

Ma Youfu calculated that roughly three .45 bullets could be produced a day.

This output can only be said to be sufficient for his own use.

After all, his magic power and time are limited, and he can't use all of it to make bullets. He also needs to be allocated to studying the Book of Otto, researching how to make golems, etc.

However, there is another self-defense weapon, which is always a good thing.

Due to lack of sleep due to research on the staff, Yofu Ma came to the restaurant the next morning yawning and found that the atmosphere was a little off.

Pastor Milot tore the bread in embarrassment and threw it into the thick soup.Volgar was swearing in dwarven language with a displeased expression on his face.Only Vera, eating pickled olives in small bites, looked as if it was none of her business.

"Sorry for the late night, everyone. Did I miss something?" Yoo Ma sat down at the table.

The shield dwarf snorted, and the words he said almost made Youfu Ma spit out the wine he just drank: "Marquis Lamanche, my loyal friend, for the well-being of all the Swiss people, please marry Princess Marie!"

What?

A shield dwarf mercenary chief who always thinks about killing people or drinking alcohol, how can he care about my marriage?

Seeing Ma Youfu's puzzled expression, Pastor Milot said: "During breakfast, we talked about the subject that the Duke will find a husband for Princess Mary after she turns 14. I mentioned that there are many unmarried young nobles Already headed for Ghent. The most notable one is Albrecht of Habsburg, son of the Duke of Austria."

Unlike the history before Mayouf's crossing, the Habsburgs of this world still maintained their rule over Switzerland in the fifteenth century.Because the confluence of the celestial sphere has changed the geological situation, many precious magical minerals have appeared under the Alps, which is by no means a barren and sinister land on another world line.Therefore, the Habsburgs did not regard them as tasteless as in history, and then gave up the Eagle Fort, the land of Longxing, and moved their family to Austria.

They are still trying to maintain their rule there.

The Swiss Confederation of many dwarven cities has always been at a disadvantage in the confrontation against the Habsburg rule.As a result, more and more dwarves had to leave their homes and go abroad to make a living as mercenaries.

Therefore, when he heard that the heirs of the Habsburgs would also go to Ghent to attend Princess Mary's birthday party, and might even become the son-in-law of Philip III, Volgar naturally couldn't hold back.

If the two were to form an alliance through the marriage of their sons and daughters, the Swiss dwarves would have to face the enemy on both sides.

"My friend, I may not be able to do this." Yofu Ma didn't want to perfunctory Volga, and chose to tell the truth.

"I know, I know..." The dwarf also knew that he was in trouble, so he didn't say anything, just sighed while drinking.

Reverend Milot reassured: "Don't worry, Master Volgar, the Marquis of Lamanche is still very hopeful. Except for Albrecht, there is almost no threat to others. The Duke does not look down on those people at all."

Now that Philip III still counts on the shield dwarves to help beat the British, he naturally needs to appease him.
