Two big families as the offensive side have established their own strategies one after another. They both decided to ignore the letters sent by Vienna and regard Charles VI's awakening as a scam.

The strings of the goddess of war trembled again, and the wars on the ground stood up into a steel jungle. The pace of the army's attack was so neat and uniform. The momentum of tens of thousands of troops was combined, and it shook the earth like a huge wave.

As Duke Friedrich said, other families of the Holy Roman Empire also received letters from Vienna one after another. The news that Emperor Charles VI was awakened was like a huge rock, causing a stir among them.

Unlike the two big families, these families believed in this matter almost the first time because they had no interest disputes. After all, where was the archbishop's guarantee?

The letters sent to these families by His Majesty Charles VI were very unified, with only one general idea, that is, in the name of the Holy Roman Emperor, they sent troops to Vienna to stop the conspiracy between Saxony and Prussia.

The Duke of Lorraine sat in the castle in Munich, looking at the letter in front of him, and a helpless and bitter smile appeared on his face.

As an ally of the Habsburg family, he should be happy to receive this news, but the Duke of Lorraine is really not happy at all, because he did not do his best to help when the Habsburg family was in crisis.

When the battle was about to begin, although they also participated in the garrison of the northern defense line, their attitude was very negative. They often avoided the Saxon cavalry and rarely had head-on confrontations.

As for the coalition forces sent to join the Habsburg defense line later, they were all old, weak, sick and disabled, with only about 10,000 people. With the strength of the Vettelsbach family, the power sent was really not enough, and the perfunctory meaning was too obvious.

Therefore, the current Duke of Lorraine can be said to be mixed. What is happy is that he has finally not abandoned the Habsburg family and made some early investments; what is worried is that his investment this time is too little, just like a primitive stock that is destined to soar, but he missed the best investment period.

As a businessman, such a mistake really makes him unable to let go.

But no matter what, even if you can't help in time, it's good to add icing on the cake. The Duke of Lorraine will not let go of any moment to earn benefits for his family.

He immediately issued an order to gather all the existing military forces of the Vettelsbach family, a total of 30,000 troops, and prepare to go to Vienna to support His Majesty the Emperor.

As for the general commander of the army, the Duke of Lorraine arranged for his son Francis to be the one who personally led the army to rescue his future father-in-law. This was a very cost-effective thing.

Until now, the Duke of Lorraine has not given up on letting Francis marry Princess Maria. Although he also knew that Princess Maria's intention was not with Francis, sometimes political chips are also an important factor in marriage.

On the other hand, the Welf family, who was always out of the matter, admired the move used by Emperor Charles VI. Duke Rudolph even wanted to lead his troops to support him personally, and took the opportunity to see the dilapidated appearance of the two families of Vetina and Hohenzollern.

However, the Duke was finally dissuaded and instead led an appropriately-identified marshal to the battle. During the war, Duke Rudolf's identity was too important, so it would be safer to stay at home.

Regarding this matter, the Hannover family sent 20,000 soldiers, which is also a considerable force.

The number of troops united by these two big families alone exceeds 50,000. This is definitely an important force on the current battlefield.

If they can devote themselves to the defense line, it will inevitably have a huge impact on the situation.

It’s just surprising that the most powerful force in the entire empire is actually some small characters that have been ignored by everyone.

They were the nobles in the United Principality of the Western Empire.

In that place, there were hundreds of powerful nobles of all sizes, and the Marquis of Falc, who had the title of "Blood Lion", was one of them. In addition to him, there were four other marquises, more than a dozen Counts, and nearly a hundred marquises.

Since there was no commander of a large family, the entire western region struggled to maintain it in the name of a loose federation, which was so loose that it could not even restrain the battles and confrontation between the nobles under their name.

The western region can be said to be the most chaotic place in the entire Holy Roman Empire. The nobles gathered here are like communities of wild beasts, spending every moment of conquest.

For this reason, the power each of them possesses far exceeds that of other nobles of the same level. Even a small viscount mostly maintains a standing army of about a thousand people.

As for the count, the weakest one has nearly three thousand soldiers under its name, and the most one has reached eight thousand.

In addition to leading the nobles under their names, the five marquises generally maintained an army of more than 10,000 people. Due to the continuous wars, the combat effectiveness of these armies was also quite good.

After Vienna's letters were delivered here, it actually caused an unexpected frenzy here. All the nobles rarely let go of their grudges and shouted in unison.

Many people clamored to send troops to support His Majesty the Emperor and let those who plot against rebels be punished as they deserve! The fighting spirit of the nobles of all sizes rose unprecedentedly. Some people even led their troops to set off before the coalition forces were assembled, and rushed towards Vienna.

The development of the situation is always beyond people's expectations. It seems that in the hearts of these little nobles who have been in war-torn areas for many years, there are some very ancient and traditional virtues, namely loyalty to the royal family.

In a very short time, an army of more than 100,000 people gathered here, and more than a hundred different flags floated in a team. Each flag represents a nobleman and a strength.

So many forces gathered together, which caused a terrifying change. The army of 100,000 was a terrible number. The two great priests of Prussia and Saxony combined together, but only the same number of soldiers were gathered together.

After the 100,000 coalition forces were assembled, they rushed towards Vienna without stopping. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as this army arrives at its destination, the crisis in Vienna will be immediately lifted. No matter how strong the two big families are, they will not be able to compete with such a huge force.
