Chapter 684 (1/2)

In addition to wooing Su Cheng and Albert, Jacob also actively wooed the nobles.

Although the nobles have no real power, they all have a very high political status. With their political status, it is worth making great efforts to win over.

Under Jacob's vigorous and resolute action, the ”empress faction” grew rapidly.

More and more dignitaries and nobles turned to the ”empress faction” and supported the empress's rule.

Among them, the most deterrent to the ”neutral” and ”Gail” is that Su Cheng, Albert and bancro fall to the ”empress”.

As the second and third leaders of the Imperial military, Albert and Su Cheng don't have to say how much energy they have.

In the britannian Empire, bancro was the most important civil servant in the Empire except Jacob.

Bancro, as the foreign affairs chief and military staff of the Empire, is also an outstanding man.

Diplomacy is a good hand, and so is the military.

Bancro was the main drafter of the ”summer wind” offensive against the Lorraine empire in 290.

Bankreuben was a man with some dead brains. For him, it didn't matter who was the emperor.

Bancro was loyal to whoever was the legitimate emperor.

Therefore, bancro's fall to the ”empress faction” is also what most people expected.

In addition to courting the important officials of the central government, Jacob is also actively courting the important officials of the local government, such as Humphrey, governor of the north.

While Jacob continued to expand the ”Queen faction”, he did not forget to suppress the ”Gail faction”.

Long before Ilsa became emperor, Jacob had managed a list - a list recording the names of Gail's followers.

Jacob took the measure of ”beating and pulling” against these people who were very likely to refuse Ilsa's rule.

Draw in some members of the ”Gaelic faction” who are not very determined.

It seems to be good for them to promote all the members of the ”Gaelic faction” who are unlikely to succeed. In fact, they are sent to some posts that are not very important and do not have much real power.

Whether it is to make the ”empress faction” grow or weaken the ”Gaelic faction”, these tasks are very complex and difficult, and can not be done in a day or two.

Take the example of sending those determined ”Gaelic” members to posts that do not have real power. This job alone may take a long time.

Because it sounds very simple, but it's actually very difficult to operate.

But just as Jacob told Su Cheng: no matter how difficult it is, he must do it!

Knowing that these things were troublesome, tiring and would offend a large number of people, Jacob still did them without hesitation.

The reason why Jacob wanted to prolong Su Cheng's return to the North was to let Su Cheng stay in the capital for a while.

As long as Su Cheng stays in the imperial capital and let everyone in the central government know that the head of the Michael Knight order is now in pandragon, he can bring a shock to the ”neutral” and ”Gaelic” people in the central government, even if Su Cheng does nothing.

With Su Cheng here, it would be easier for Jacob to win over various ministers and nobles into the ”Queen school”.

Jacob also wanted Albert to stay in the imperial capital, but because in the two large-scale offensives in 290, the British Empire annexed a large number of territories of the Lorraine Empire, and these newly annexed territories have not been successfully digested up to now, Albert still needs to sit on the southern front.

Therefore, after Ilsa's accession ceremony, only Su Cheng remained in the imperial capital, and Iser and Albert returned to their respective front lines.
