Power and Empire Chapter 1604: Gaulian Winter (6)
The situation in the northwest has changed again. On the month, the Falcons successfully took over the two cities with the help of Julius Fort. Julius Fort transferred the two city garrison officers away and arranged two The confidant served as the garrison officer and ordered two troops of the Fifth Army to settle in with the order to strengthen the garrison force.
Most citizens did not realize this. In their eyes, the Northwest Army was still tossing back and forth. There was no change in the city. The garrison officers of the two cities were still garrison officers, and the garrison team in the city was still the garrison team. It’s just that the citizens passing by the city gate occasionally noticed that a fierce Falcon flag had been planted on the wall without knowing when, and then a large number of caravans poured into the southwest from these two areas.
The southwestern region of God has just eased from the tension of the war, and the situation has not been fully understood. The war has strained everyone’s nerves for a winter. Although Gangfei’s offensive has weakened, it does not mean to stop. , More than 100,000 Gangfei troops occupied one-third of the land in the southwest, and the imperial reinforcements have not arrived. The battle situation on the front line is very pessimistic, not to mention that half a month ago, it came from the occupied area. Message,
In order to retaliate for the major setbacks encountered in the Southwest, the brutal Gangfei emperor has just severely ordered the execution of more than 60,000 people who violently resisted in the occupied area, and destroyed those who had never agreed to surrender under the siege. In the Bisalin area, the Congolese army tied the captured Bisalin prisoners to the trees in the woodland according to their favorite tradition. After the night, what is left is a body hollowed out by a wild wolf alive. Seven thousand Pisalin defenders disappeared completely.
In the cold wind, every city in the southwest is covered with notices from the Northwest Chamber of Commerce. The streets and alleys, as long as you can look up and see, you will find a row of words painted with white paint
"Are you still confused by the turmoil and hunger? Are you still worried about your family being harmed by the war? Come to the northwest coast!" This kind of old-time looks funny, it is a joke attraction, and it has been overwhelming in the southwestern city. ,
The Southwester's wind is messy, similar to the small commercials of the offspring. If it were a few months ago, the Southwestern would have sneered at this. The Northwest is barren, and only the poor ghosts and criminals who have nothing will go. But now it is full of attractiveness to most ordinary Southwesterners. Compared with the turbulent southwest in the war, a calm northwest, it is really hard to refuse,
The Northwest War, the rise of the Northwest Coast is already obvious to all. It is not only military strength, but also economic strength. There is land in the northwest but no one is cultivated. There are resources in the northwest but no labor to exploit the open northwest. The conditions are basic It can be said that there are no restrictions on the above, and as long as you are willing to go to the northwest area, you can immediately obtain a piece of land that can feed four people. Anyway, there is enough land, and waste is also waste.
Governor Duocho has announced a policy of rewarding reclamation. Whoever drives the wasteland is the one who owns the wasteland. As long as the verification is completed by the verifier, the land belongs to an individual. This policy applies to anyone, even a former prisoner. Or, there are no captives on the northwest coast. The entire northwest coast area is attracting a large number of people, which has become an indisputable fact.
The tragic war cannot stop the pace of development. Just like the cold wind has passed, the weeds are still spreading, and the ambitions of the businessmen in the northwest are also such a huge southwestern market, which is becoming a battlefield for them to gallop. Under the special care of Learsford, the goods from the northwest were released in large quantities. The panic and panic throughout the winter, the feeling of not knowing when it would die, made the entire southwestern market like one. A huge sponge, if people find that they have no hope of living, they will start to vent and squander,
The southwestern market is flooded by a large number of marine products from the northwest, salt, cold-proof animal skins, gold that can be pawned, and gorgeous luxury goods. On the other hand, goods that provide a sense of security are the most popular, such as sharp swords from the Northwest, light armor, polished bright badge shields, and long-handled axes that can split heavy infantry armor with one axe.
These weapons are the spoils of the Falcon Army in the Battle of the Northwest. The fat man turned his hand and all poured out to the southwest. He sold more than 10,000 sets of armor and various weapons in the southwest. The desire of the Fatty even exceeded Fatty’s expectations. If it weren’t for the fact that the Southwestern District was a battlefront area, in addition to a small number of garrisons, the city had the habit of building its own garrison. Fatty really thought this place was fighting among the princes.
Fatty once personally went to a city to purchase a thousand sets of armor. These garrison teams are composed of citizens, and the equipment is not good, but they are full of enthusiasm for guarding their own city. This may also be Juliers Ford Fort, why in the extremely difficult environment, still stick to the main reason for the whole winter, every time the front line is tight, Juliers Fort will open up the line army composed of the city garrison,
The entire Southwestern War lasted two months. The Southwest Army lost 7,000 people in the battle, while the city garrison suffered more than 10,000 casualties. A large number of weapons and equipment were consumed on the front line, and the maritime transportation line suffered from the Congolese and non-navy forces. In order to prevent the refugees from the war zone from entering the hinterland of the empire, the Gaul Empire has ordered that the road from the southwestern area to the hinterland of the empire has been engraved. Living materials have been cut off. The cities in the southwestern area have to purchase a large number of quietly from the northwest coast. .
No one knows, whether Julius Faubourg did this to resist the Gangfei people, or whether he was trying his best to assist the Northwest with the Southwest.
A large swath of snow fell on his shoulders, watching Julius Faubourg’s last disappearing back, the fat man took his gaze back from the distant mountain col, and stood beside the fat man, the little pepper Zhu who refused to look back. Lier Strisa, a red fur, reveals a different kind of charm,
The beautiful gem-like eyes are bright and bloody. Even if Little Pepper is not in the world, he knows that Julius Faubourg is going to be a lot of bad luck. According to the report sent back from the Gaul Empire, at this time The Slavs are no longer the tired division who was scared by the fat man in the past two months and dare not attack,
At that time, the Slavic army was in a life and death dilemma of exhaustion. The army had no fighting spirit, and only wanted to survive, and the equipment was extremely poor. However, the current Slavs occupied more than a dozen northern cities in the hinterland of Gaul. Three of these cities are the weapon casting areas of the Gaul Empire. The Slavs opened the weapons warehouse of the Gaul Empire, and tens of thousands of weapons and equipment fell into the hands of the Slavs. As a result, the two Gaul native garrisons were also defeated, and their combat power has long been different from what they used to be.
There is no loyal Fifth Legion in his hands, no heroic subordinates, and Little Pepper does not know that he has spent his entire life with the father who fought with the Slavs. What to use against millions of Slavs, according to the Slavs’ nature of revenge, the name of Butcher Julius Faubourg is more of the monstrous hatred of the Slavs, the raging war spirit, and the emperor of Gaul is obvious. Just borrow a knife to kill someone! A typical murder with a knife! This is a road of no return. The Slavs want their father to die, and the emperor wants his father to die. There is no middle.
Julier Strisa received a letter from the fat man, and he rushed over from Normandy for three consecutive days. This time, Julius Faubourg showed resoluteness, and the father and daughter were in There was a big quarrel in the study, and Little Chili slammed the door away in anger. This is the unique way of saying goodbye between two stubborn father and daughter.
"Let's go! Isn't it going to Kyoto? At least, it won't kill people right away, we can still think of a way!"
The fat man kindly comforts Julier Strisa, stretches out his hand to pat the snowflakes on Julier Strisa’s shoulder, puts on the grease-checked cavalry gloves, picks up a riding whip inlaid with fifteen gems Pan, the burly imperial general Hu Keqili respectfully led the fat man with a war horse,
Julier Strisa turned around, no crying, no sadness, teeth clenching her white lower lip, a trace of blood stayed from the corners of the delicate mouth, only an angry light shining through her eyes , Fatty thought that this reckless little pepper would cry and smashed, threw into his arms and tossed it for a while, but the little pepper in his arms suddenly opened his little tiger teeth on Fatty’s shoulders. Took a bite,
"What are you doing, puppy!"
Even if he has a hòu heavy cotton coat, the fat man grins in pain. This chick is really biting! I wanted to shake it violently, but looking at the bloodstain on the corner of Little Chili’s mouth, I couldn’t bear it in the end
"Let it go, if I can bite Faaborg-sama back, I will let you take a few more bites"
The fat man said with a grim face, as if the words had worked, Julier Strisa blinked his eyes and let go, his beautiful eyes looked at the fat man fiercely, and he looked at the fat man with a straight look. A little hairy,
"This girl won't be overly sad, right?"
Fatty's face was pale, and when the fatty was hesitating whether to change a shoulder and let this little pepper bite, Julier Strisa, with a cold face, burst into a smile with a pair of crescent eyes. It is beautiful like a bright moon rising from the earth, illuminating the night sky, and the fat guy is even a little bit stunned
Julier Strisa took a breath with a small and pleasant snout, and gritted his teeth and said, "Tell me, if the dog emperor really killed his father, what would you do?"
"Of course I killed him!" The fat man rubbed his shoulders and said without hesitation. This is a rare truth for fat people. In fact, the fat man wants to say, no matter what, I will kill him. Who calls him It is the emperor of Gaul, this is fate!
" Although I know that you lied to me, at least I feel better in my heart. "Julier Strisa has a pretty face and his bright eyes are full of feeling jī
"I mean it!" The corners of the fat man's slightly curled mouth curled up evilly, without the slightest scent of coaxing.
Just when he came to Lier Strisa dumbfounded, the fat man grabbed Julie Strisa’s hand, and the two of them turned on their horses together,
" This is my promise to you, and also a promise to Master Faaborg! "Fatty looked through the snow curtain all over the earth. The last snow at the end of winter is not as violent as before, although the snowflakes are still large. But the cold already has the warmth of spring,
"If I don’t go back to Kyoto, the other party will do everything possible to deal with you. I’ll go, at least I can delay you for a few years!" Julius Faubourg whispered in the fat man’s ear that day. Hovering in the fat man’s mind
" Julius Faubourg, I owe you a favor! You know, except for Old Duke Jones, I have never owed any favor to anyone! "The fat man immediately raised his whip and faced Shirayuki. With a sudden wave of the floating sky and the earth, the bleakness of the iron horse and glacier remains the same. Only under the snowy ground, the new grass roots grow tenaciously. What kind of **** emperor of Gaul, if Julius Vogel really had it. In any event, I will personally lead an army to break your empire! "
Snowflakes are like dancing in the sky. In another place in the southwestern land, a dark purple battle flag came braving the wind and snow. Five thousand light cavalry wearing purple armor appeared outside the capital city of the southwestern region. ,
The purple battle flag is like a purple thread, which brings a rare fierceness in the flying snow. These light cavalry wear helmets with curved horns on their heads and light and strong scaly armor on their bodies. The shield on the hip of the war horse is a unicorn coat of arms
"Look, it's the Murphy's Dragon Cavalry known as the Purple Storm!" The more than a dozen army commanders of the Southwest Army who were waiting at the city gate began to move. Many people were already craned their necks and looked into the distance. The purple cavalry who appeared suddenly showed joy,
" Lord Murphy Obone is here, we can finally get rid of that guy!"
"Yeah, yeah, I've been really frustrated these months!"
"The butcher in the Northwest, thinking of serving as the head of the Southwest District for a long time, is simply a dream."
The generals whispered that the Emperor's use of the heart is well known in the Southwest Army. If it weren’t for the army of Congo and Africa, the entire Southwestern region would be extremely dangerous, and the Southwest Army, which was very far apart from the northwest, Did not obey the orders of Julius Faubourg at all! This time when Julius Faubourg returned to Beijing, no one went to send it off. The relationship can be seen
This time, Murphy Obern, who came to replace him, is different. A young and promising military genius, he is also known as the double master of the empire with the former General Algernon Katja, and is known in the Gaul military circles. "Horn of the Wind" The dragon cavalry of the Murphy family is a rare heavy cavalry regiment in the Gaul Empire. Although there are only 10,000 people, they are the elite of the empire. Bia’s unique beast cavalry
just when the generals were talking about it,
One of the purple cavalry stopped in the distance slowly came out and approached the city gate. The generals of the Southwest Army stopped talking and tidied their collars. Everyone hoped that they could give the new Shangguan. A good impression is to know that the Murphy family in Kyoto is not much inferior to the Algernon family. This "Murphy Obern" is even more popular in Kyoto for his handsome and heroic appearance. There are even people. Said that the Alger family intended to marry the Murphy family, but was rejected by the young man.
" My lords! "The purple knight who came in the wind and snow stopped the horse ten meters in front of the city gate, and unveiled the helmet with two wings on the front and two handsome sword eyebrows. It was really bright and compelling. Some purple hair runs down the shoulders. That is the unique hair color of the Murphy family. It is said that the Murphy family is a small tribe on the border of China and Bahrain. Because it helped the first emperor fight, he was named a duke. /
" Subordinates pay a visit to Lord Murphy Obern! "A dozen Southwestern generals neatly knelt down on one knee, and the red cloak behind them slipped to the ground. At a glance, it looked a little funny
" Everyone is mistaken, I am Murphy Lins, my brother is Murphy Obern! "The young man with purple hair saw the situation in front of him, and the corners of his mouth laughed." My brother had something in the way, so I specifically asked me to tell you all With a sigh of honour, everyone's heart is understood. As soldiers, fighting bravely is where your duty lies. Now that the army has not retreated, these clichés can be avoided. Please go back to your guard area first!"
"What, it’s not Murphy O’Born.” The Southwest Army generals looked at each other, and one of them asked, “Slightly, Mr. Murphy, where is Murphy O’Bion now?”
" Actually, I don’t know! "The young man rolled his eyes and shrugged helplessly
In the snow-covered port, busy pulley cranes are sliding iron locks, and dozens of dock workers are busy and orderly loading the piles of goods, one by one, on the merchant ship docked in the inner bend. The real rope did not make a tight creaking sound. The crew above arranged the goods neatly, and then made a shout. The merchant ship trembled and left the pier, slowly passing the wide open sea.
There are a lot of people on the pier, although the ground is a bit slippery, the carriages that carry goods pass by from time to time~IndoMTL.com~The rut collides with the gravel in the ground, and there is a brisk, crisp sound, a team of about ten people The port patrolmen from the port came from a distance riding a tall horse. A carriage lying in the middle of the entrance blocked the road. There were already more than a dozen cars behind. The owner of this carriage looked very anxious and turned around next to the carriage. /
"Papa" patrol cavalry used a hook to pull the wagon with the broken axle away. This is a pier in the southwest region. A young man with purple hair is looking at it all with interest
" My lord, we'd better leave immediately!" Opposite the young man, a middle-aged man wearing a black dress with a slightly nervous look said impatiently, "Northwest's attitude is unclear. Moreover, it is said that the Northwest Coast has a marriage relationship with the Julius family. The adult is so alone and in-depth investigation, if discovered by the other party, it is very dangerous for the adult!"
The purple-haired young man turned his head indifferently, and his sharp eyes made the middle-aged man shut up immediately,
"Go back! It's time to see it!" The young man leaned on the chair, took a deep breath and said softly
" I’m just curious about what kind of power is there to defeat the northwest coast of the Congolese naval fleet, and I just looked at it. The soldiers here are pretty friendly to ordinary people! If you don’t tell me, I I don’t think the other party will know me! There is already a Southwest chief who is unlucky because he despised Northwest, I don’t want to be the second one!"
