Power and Empire Chapter 393: Gate of Glory
With the special permission of the Grand Duke, Lidarcus no longer dared to excuse himself,
Xun Xun conducts a comprehensive investigation of various types of intelligence to and from Kleis in the name of the loss of military supplies,
The Samor Intelligence Department and several banner groups that received the fat man’s secret order are also fully operational
Taking off military supplies is the biggest taboo in the Samor army.
What's more, this time, Lidarcus, a logistics tycoon known as the "dataworm", is at the helm himself,
The power used is unprecedented
Mountain-like information came from various channels, and Claes’s situation for nearly a month was recorded on it,
From street rumors, to the monthly balance books of the many pubs in Liquor Cristo,
The pile of information is even higher than Lidacus himself
As the most complex subject at Paravin College, the only high-achieving student in the secret file department,
With these piles of scattered materials, Lidarcus, who has special talents in this area, can’t help it.
Exploring the context of the whole incident from the scattered fragments is originally Lidarcus’ hobby,
It took only half a day,
From the dazzling information in front of him, he compiled a detailed list that may be involved in this incident,
According to this list, the Samor Intelligence Service quickly found out the inside story of the entire incident
This is actually a typical internal struggle of the Kristol nobles,
The fire of Kleisto destroyed most of the wealthy families in Kyoto, but it also made Kleisto a lot of upstarts,
Lost the suppression of the previous powerful clan forces,
The little nobles who survived the catastrophe of Kleisto quickly sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain
They are now the main force of Cristo,
The long-term depression and the disorderly state of Kleistor made these new families almost unscrupulous in grabbing the sphere of influence of Kleistor
The old duke is still old after all,
I have no more energy when restoring the Crest’s economy wholeheartedly,
To coordinate these disrespectful younger generation disputes
But as a representative of the older generation of wealthy families, the old duke occasionally scolded him when he couldn’t see it.
This undoubtedly makes these lawless upstarts feel annoyed
This is a stumbling block!
Most of the wealthy families were either destroyed by military disasters, or moved out of the sad place of Crest
Almost no one knows the secret relationship between the Falcon family and the old Duke of Duai
This is how a conspiracy around the old duke unfolded
When this secret investigation report was delivered to Lidarcus,
This Samor logistics supervisor, who always likes to be nosy, still took a breath of air-conditioning.
His eyes are frozen on the list on the report,
A full thirty-eight names, almost all the families that survived the Crest fire,
The Ella family, the Fitline family, the Kortain family,
Damn, there are people from the Duai family,
"These people are really looking for their own way!" Lidarkus whispered his name with a gloomy face, cursing to himself in his heart
"Couldn't the fire that destroyed Kleistor make these self-righteous Kyoto nobles more sober!
Under the fury of the Grand Duke, all the conspiracy and efforts,
It's just the source of destruction!
"My lord, do you need to send this report to the Grand Duke immediately!" Assistant Luo Linze looked at the heavy face of his chief with a worried expression, and asked in a low voice.
"Don't be so hurry! Some things we haven't fully figured out yet! For example, the life background of Miss Alanstein mentioned in the report!" Lidarcus carefully handed the list to his young assistant,
The slightly trembling hand makes this special report look like holding a heavy object
"Keep this report well. The Grand Duke will return from Kudan City tomorrow. We will need these then!
Now I just hope that the situation is not the worst! Lidarcus said in a low voice
He also knows about the disorder in Kyoto, but he didn't expect it to be so serious.
The assassination of the local governor appointed by Samer is not a big deal in itself,
The cruelty of power struggle exists everywhere,
Kill or be killed,
Many times there is no choice
But these fools chose the wrong person,
Why is the old Duke Duai the most respected by Fatty?
Although the private army of the Duai family was once the strongest enemy of Samer, the old Duke Duai is a person who has a deep affection for fat people
In the beginning, without the strong intervention of the old Duke Duai, it was impossible for the fat man to become a lord
Fatty is a person who bears grudges, but he is also a grateful person,
The old duke with deep roots has never escaped these madness from the dark
What will happen to the immature Miss Ellenstein?
"This may be the life of the entire Kleisman!" At this point, Lidarcus couldn't help sighing again,
His words made the young assistant Luo Linze stunned for a moment, and he was puzzled.
"No way, only some nobles are involved here! According to the style of the Grand Duke, there shouldn't be too many innocent citizens involved!"
"Hehe, you don't understand something!" Lidarcus saw the assistant's dazed expression, and a wry smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The Kingdom War God, who has always been known for his calmness, also has his own inviolable scales
If something happens to the girl named Ellenstein, plus the death of the Grand Duke
The furious Grand Duke can definitely do a lot of unreasonable things,
It is not impossible to burn Klesto again,
"That's the one who can watch Kyoto being destroyed by fire. I hope these Kleisto guys didn't do stupid things!"
Lidarcus prayed secretly in his heart, and he was also born as a nobleman,
The nature of being sympathetic to the same kind still makes him feel a little hard to calm the speculation in his heart.
"I heard that Kudan City opened the gate for the Grand Duke this time. I really don't know how Lord Salon did it!"
The young assistant Luo Linze quickly changed the subject when he saw the officer’s disappointed look.
The fact that the fat man asked Salon to persuade Kudan to open the gate of Kudan for two days has been spread throughout the entire Samor army.
"It's nothing difficult!" Lidarcus joked a bit,
While investigating Cristo, he also checked Kudan’s situation by the way
The nosy talent is always hard to suppress, not to mention this important event that has spread to the whole army of Samer,
I know more about Salon’s situation than others,
"The immediate benefits can always make people forget the pain,
Only distribute the land to the remaining farmers, they will no longer care about the hapless people who are moved to the west,
The promise of guarantee and certain compensation for the property of the nobles in the city,
I believe that anyone who is not a fool knows how to choose,
No one likes to be slaughtered. The courage to fight against power can belong to the warrior, but it is definitely not a nobleman.
Otherwise, the nobles would have been killed by the lords!
Actually, the so-called two-day period is just a little joke between the adults and Salon.
I'm more interested in how Saron, who has a rib, came up with this method! "
"It's that simple?" Assistant Luo Linze opened two eyes, almost unbelievable,
"Yes, it's that simple!" Lidarcus shrugged disapprovingly
"Giving hope to others means giving hope to yourself. Killing is not the only way to solve the problem.
This is probably the answer that the Grand Duke, I hope Master Salon can comprehend! "
The city of Kudan is not a military base,
This can be seen from the thick black gate of Kudan City,
There are no specially reinforced iron bars, and no auxiliary brackets for impact resistance,
Fatty even saw two half-naked mermaids in relief from this gorgeously decorated door.
"This is the gate of Kudan, an important town in the north?" The fat man looked at the sight with amazement,
It's hard for a fat man to imagine how such a gate can resist the enemy's attack!
Such a thin iron sheet, even the heavy infantry’s siege cone cannot withstand it,
No wonder the cunning Steian family
After the fall of Vatu Pass, I will give up this jewel of the north in such a haste
This is not a strong city gate, but a luxurious artwork,
There is no way to fight in such a city!
The noble culture inherited for hundreds of years has completely infested the city.
Various kinds of elegant reliefs are all over the street, and some knight statues have even been moved on the city wall.
There is no denying it,
This city standing on the plain is beautiful,
There is an irresistible temptation to the knights and romantic aristocrats who have traveled here.
No matter who it is, just come here,
You will be involuntarily attracted by the beauty in front of you,
But this definitely includes the enemy,
What they value is how many soldiers are needed to occupy here,
Are they going to fight us among these statues? The fat man looked at a knight statue standing on the corner of the city wall and thought to himself,
Saron’s negotiation in Kudan was very successful,
Under Hu Keqili’s hint,
Saron boldly issued the so-called post-war land order,
It is announced that the farmers who are dispersed will get their own land as long as they return to the local village.
This quickly calmed the dissatisfaction and panic of nearby farmers,
Land is the lifeblood of farmers. With limited land,
Naturally, the fewer people involved in the division of land, the better. Regarding the previous forced migration of the population by Samor,
No one wants to be held accountable anymore,
Man is such a strange animal,
Samoor’s rapport quickly improved among the Kudan population, from invaders to so-called liberators,
Although Saron’s empty promise, the fat man’s signature has not yet been approved,
But it’s enough for Salon to achieve what the fat guy wants to do in a short time,
Saron rarely shows respect for the nobles in Kudan City,
Under the circumstance that promised to protect the private property of nobles and promised to compensate the nobles for certain losses,
Mrs. Jerrinkana, the noble leader, finally expressed her recognition of Samor’s rule,
Actually, at the moment when Samer did not choose to attack Kudan City,
Most of Kudan’s nobles have already admitted the compromise in their hearts,
After all, those who choose to stay are all families connected with the business alliance.
No one wants to be too stiff with Samer,
"A ray of light, a ray of darkness,
The fat man rode on a horse, looked at the Kudan city gate that opened slowly in front of him, and whispered to Salon behind him.
"As a governor, politics and compromise are things you have to learn,
Fatty's words made Salong's body tremble slightly
As Hu Keqili guessed,
As the biggest hero of this Kudan battle, Fatty did intend to let Salon take charge of the affairs of Kudan in the north,
Fatty needs a general who can lead the army independently, bravely and eloquently,
For yourself!
For Samor! Le guards the most important hub in the north of the kingdom
Looking at the many generals of Samer, apart from Caesar Sauron who guards Dehrim, there is only the one-stranded Saron in front of him.
But Fatty is also a little worried about Saran,
This guy is killing too much!
To defend Kudan, an area rich in aristocratic culture, we cannot rely solely on the army.
Now it seems that Salon is doing pretty well!
"Woohoo!" The bugle screamed,
Six thousand Samor cavalry guards, like two neat road signs standing on both sides of the streets of Kudan,
Extending from the city gate to the center of the city, Lolik Yat Hall,
All the citizens of Kudan were crowded, looking at the legendary, the sharpest sword in the Samor army with a look of fear.
The young face has determination, and the high horse head seems to be able to construct the second floor along the street
The black armor is plated with a shiny gold by the sky sunlight,
Make these murderous cavalry a little less hostile and more sacred
Lorikja Hall
This is a tall building with a spire, built four hundred years ago in the era of Isdias,
It was the palace of the Lolikya dynasty that ruled the northern part of Kudan at that time.
The entire Kudan city is centered on this building,
Divided into two areas, east and west, eight main passages extend from here to all corners of the city.
The appearance of pure white marble makes it so dazzling on this pure Kudan plain,
The golden sunlight shines on the elegant appearance of the house,
The exquisiteness reveals the true color of the earth,
Seven huge spires towering abruptly around the main body of the white hall,
These are seven great knights who have made outstanding achievements in Kudan’s history.
They are the spiritual pillar of the Kudan people,
Their bodies are buried under the minaret, and their blood-stained knight's lances and armor are melted into molten iron,
Inject into the spire of the tower together,
Their will is like a spire pointing directly at the sky, piercing the sky above their heads,
This is the hometown of the great northern knights!
Every year, there are a large number of knights and nobles who travel in front of this great building.
Mute my creeds and wishes quietly,
I hope that one day I can become the eighth knight to reach the top,
It is the center of Kudan,
It is also a landmark building of the entire northern aristocratic culture,
But today,
A new meaning will be attached here,
The nobles of Kudan will swear allegiance to Kudan’s new owner, the Grand Duke of the Kingdom Regent from the South.
The heavy door of Lolikya Hall~IndoMTL.com~ slowly opened amidst the creaking sound,
The two glorious doors engraved with the merits of seven knights have not been opened to the outside for hundreds of years.
Even the former ruler, the Stian family did not have the power to open the door,
In the annual memorial ceremony, you can only enter from the side door next to the gate.
To open it, you must have convincing martial arts and prestige,
And the Steian family, who always likes to lurch, is obviously unworthy,
As the door opens,
The shaft lurking inside the wall starts to rotate,
The two sides of the "Swiss" corridor are originally copper statues of knights facing outwards. Driven by the turntable on the soles of their feet, they rotate their bodies at the same time to form a formation facing each other.
Like iron guards who have been waiting for thousands of years, waking up from their deep sleep at the same time,
