Garça said with a smile: "I officially appoint you as the dean of the St. Tulan City's magic college. Dean Ian, you have to cultivate more magic talents for the empire!"
When they heard Garça's words, the eyes of the surrounding ministers flickered with jealousy.
The position of dean of a magic college was extremely important. It was the cradle for cultivating magic talents for the empire.
Mastering the magic college was equivalent to mastering a large number of Wizards.
This was definitely one of the most important positions of the empire. At the time, Morrince 2,867th shamelessly brought people to seize this important position, only to die at Yang Feng's hands.
Yang Feng replied: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
In addition to Yang Feng, Garça continued to confer titles to his ministers.
Goyena was made a court marquis and the commander of the royal guards, commanding 20,000 royal guards.
Catalão was made a court duke and the commander of the 1st imperial guard corps.
Bousso was also made the governor of the very prosperous Jadeli Province, which was the closest to the imperial capital.
Barros and McCann were made court grand masters.
The meritorious ministers who participated in the coup d 'état were enfeoffed by Garça and became important ministers of the Morrince Empire.
The Gahelid Province in the south of the Morrince Empire was adjacent to the Southern Desert Empire and was the first front against the Southern Desert Empire.
On the Feisuo Plane, the Morrince Empire and the Titan Empire were far stronger than other human forces. They were recognized as the 2 most powerful human empires on the Feisuo Plane.
However, in addition to the Morrince Empire and the Titan Empire, there were still countless states of various sizes on the Feisuo Plane, and the Desert Empire was one of them.
Although the Desert Empire was far inferior to the Morrince Empire in terms of national strength, but it struggled to survive in the cruel environment of the desert. Practically everyone was a natural warrior.
They would often attack the Morrince Empire, burn, kill, and loot people and various materials.
The Morrince Empire formed the southern army to deal with the invasion of the Desert Empire.
The Southern Field Army was stationed in Gahelid Province. The entire Southern Field Army had 200,000 soldiers, and if the various auxiliary soldiers were added together, their numbers would exceed a million.
The Dry Rock Fortress, within the southern army's headquarters.
Andre took a document, carefully looked at it for a while, and then said with an ambiguous smile: "He wants me to return to the St. Tulan City to report on my work. My younger brother Garça seems to have made some progress.
At least he didn't order people to arrest me as soon as he ascended to the throne. "
The complexion of a thin and ordinary middle-aged man slightly changed as he said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, you mustn't go back.
Once you return to the St. Tulan City, Garça will definitely execute you. "
This thin, ordinary-looking middle-aged man was the leader of Andrei's think tank, Anzolev.
"Anzolev, how did your talk with the desert barbarians go?"
Anzolev said: "The desert barbarians have agreed to sign a peace treaty with us. Within a year, they will not invade Gahelid province."
Andre lightly tapped the table with his index finger and said lightly, "Do you think they will abide by the agreement?"
Anzolev shook his head slightly and said: "Those desert barbarians are vicious by nature, forgetting what's right at the sight of profit. It's impossible for them to abide by the agreement.
There are also smart people among them who want us to attack the St. Tulan City.
They would then take advantage of the situation and launch a sneak attack on Gahelid Province.
I'm eighty percent sure that once our main force leaves, those barbarians will break the agreement and attack us. "
Andre said with a smile: "That's right. Those desert barbarians are vicious by nature and simply can't be trusted.
However, I haven't pinned my hopes on them keeping their word.
Have you contacted those few tribes? "
Anzolev said in a deep voice, "I have, Your Highness!"
A cold glint flashed past Andre's eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Since everything is ready, let's get started!"
On the 6th day after Garça ascended to the throne, Andre, the commander-in-chief of the southern army, issued a declaration denouncing Garça for assassinating Morrince 2,867th and for being a traitor of the empire. Andre dispatched 100,000 troops to advance on the St. Tulan City.
The Gahelid province, which had been run by Andre for many years, suddenly leaned towards him.
Garça promptly mobilized the 4 corps of the nearby Angalo Province and the Merton Province to resist Andre.
The 4 corps of the 2 provinces engaged in a decisive battle with the southern army commanded by Andre beside the White Sand River.
During the decisive battle, a corps of the Merton Province switched sides on the battlefield and launched a pincer attack with the southern army commanded by Andre. They defeated the main forces of the 3 corps in one fell swoop, and countless people surrendered.
After absorbing the countless surrendered soldiers, Andre's 100,000-strong army expanded to 160,000-strong army.
After the main forces of the Garalo Province and the Merton Province were swept clean, Andre took the opportunity to send envoys to the 2 provinces.
Practically all the officials of the 2 provinces surrendered at the mere sight of him, and most of them easily chose to surrender to Andre.
The Morrince Empire exuded a rotten smell from top to bottom. Coupled with the fact that it was a civil war in the Morrince Empire, the officials naturally weren't willing to risk their lives for Garça.
As soon as the Garalo Province and the Merton Province surrendered, the gate leading to the St. Tulan City opened.
Andre's 160,000-strong army had to pass through the Tandoo Province, the Notice Province, and the Povei Province to reach the St. Tulan City.
After the 4 corps of the Garalo Province and the Merton Province were defeated and surrendered to Andre, the rest of the provinces adopted a wait-and-see attitude.
Only Andre's base, the Poveinia Province, fully supported Andre and sent 2 corps to the St. Tulan City to obey Garça's dispatch.
The border armies with the strongest fighting strength of the Morrince Empire didn't transfer their most elite troops to the St. Tulan City on the pretext of the appearance of foreign enemies. Instead, they transferred some veterans and some second-line troops to the St. Tulan City.
Garça's position was precarious, and he was in a precarious situation.
Under such circumstances, he didn't dare to kill Porta and the other 2 princes.
Once Garça killed Porta and the other 2 princes, the remaining forces of the 3 princes would side with the Great Prince Andre, and Garça would be besieged on all sides.
The Victory Palace, inside the imperial study.
Looking somewhat haggard, Garça paced back and forth anxiously in the imperial study.
Beside Garça stood an ordinary-looking, blue-haired middle-aged man. This middle-aged man was Ghost Fox Bracy, the head of Garça's think tanks.
At this moment, Bracy took a document and carefully looked at it for a while before putting it down.
Garça asked anxiously at once: "Bracy, what should I do now?"
Bracy comforted: "No need to worry, Your Majesty.
At present, more than 95% of the Morrince Empire's provinces are in our hands.
Our strength is more than 20 times that of Andre's rebels.
The White Tower has pledged allegiance to you.
The St. Tulan City has gathered 300,000 troops.
Andre is no match for us. "
Garça's eyes flashed with a cold glint, and he gritted his teeth, saying: "Bracy, don't comfort me with these words.
Andre's southern army is an elite border army tempered by decades of fierce battles with the Desert Empire.
Even though he only dispatched 100,000 troops, it's still a terrifying force.
His military talent is indeed recognized as among the top 10 famous generals of the empire.
Only those old fogies can fight him.
Hateful that none of those old fogies is willing to come out and help me, how hateful!! "
Andre was indeed a famous general of the Morrince Empire.
However, the Morrince Empire's military was filled with powerhouses and experts.
There were also quite a few famous generals who were as famous as Andre.
However, most of these famous generals were border army commanders who had no intention of intervening in the struggle for the throne. As such, they didn't provide much support to Garça.
Previously, Garça hadn't roped in any famous generals of the Morrince Empire.
Previously, he spent all his energy on infiltrating the 3rd imperial guard corps, which allowed him to take control of the 3rd imperial guard corps at the most critical time.
As for the border army of the Morrince Empire, it had always been impartial and never participated in the struggle for the throne.
Only the southern army, which was under Andre's complete control, would get involved in the struggle for the throne and become Andre's helper.
Bracy suddenly said: "Your Majesty, we also have someone who can contend with Andre!"
Garça hesitated for a moment before saying slowly: "You mean Duke Ian?"
Bracy said slowly: "Yes, Duke Ian is a man who can create miracles.
With the meager forces of the Miracle City, he could defeat the hunting fang corps and the silver sword corps. There is no doubt about his military talent.
If it's him, he has a good chance of defeating Andre. "
Garça's brows furrowed, and he fell into silence.
In the imperial study, there was a peculiar silence.
Bracy said solemnly: "Your Majesty, I know that Duke Ian is already the dean of the magic college. If he also holds a military post, there may be some hidden dangers.
However, the urgent matter at hand is to defeat Andre.
If he can't defeat Andre, the consequences will be unimaginable. "
Garça hesitated for a moment before saying: "Can't Goyena do it?"
In Garça's mind, Goyena was the most suitable candidate to lead the army.
Bracy frowned slightly and said slowly: "Although Goyena performed very well in the military college, but he has no experience in large-scale warfare.
If it was against an ordinary enemy, he might perform very well.
But he's not Andre's opponent.
That battle is very important to you, Your Majesty.
If you lose, our favorable situation will be reversed in an instant. "
Garça paced back and forth in the imperial study for a while. After weighing the pros and cons, he finally gave a long sigh and said: "Alright, let Ian go."
