Power and Empire Chapter 1673: Unrest (1)
"Your Majesty, the Burrows family’s imprisonment is in Ninestar! I'm afraid it will be a little trouble this time!" The Duke of General set pushed open the door of the cabin, his face was pale
"Ninestar?"
The fat man propped his chin with one hand and raised his eyelids. A trace of confusion flashed in his calm eyes. He asked the King of Raphael County to get the place where the Burrows family was imprisoned, as Gang Fei. People’s key to isolation, the Duke of Putao was very sadly cut off from his biggest supporter, the Burrows family. The only thing he knew was that the Burrows family was under house arrest, but the Duke of Putao provided a clue, Raphael. Under the coercion of Gang Fei, the county prince went to the imprisonment to persuade the Burrows family to give up support for him, but the result was rejected by the Burrows family. The King of Raphael County who has done a lot of disadvantages
"Ninestar is a mountainous area on the northeastern border of the Principality. "The Duke of Putao, seeing His Majesty Falcon, was a little confused, and quickly explained." The Nastar area is where Gangfei enters the Principality of Putao. In order to maintain the strong pressure on the general, the non-humans built the Ninestar fortress in the Ninestar area. The Gangfei people are very concerned about the so-called prophetic ability of the Burrows family. The attitude of the Burrows family and the extraordinary in Central Europe Undoubtedly, Gang Fei’s status has made Gang Fei’s rat taboo. Since he cannot be eradicated by force, he can only take house arrest.
But there is also news that, in order to win over the Burrows family, the Congolese Military Affairs Department even proposed to marry the Burrows family at the expense of a royal family member, but it seems that the domestic resistance was too great to implement it. You know, the Burrows family The woman of's is often unable to be the entrance of the main room! Otherwise, it will be considered ominous, and the royal family member has not yet been married! "
"Gang is not a member of the royal family..." The fat man heard a black line in his forehead, and Gang Fei was very willing to throw out such a bait for a family, about the Burrows family. taboo. He heard Turrett Colleen say something
"Is there a way to find the specific place of house arrest?" The fat man raised his head with his chin in his hands and asked very seriously
"It will take some time!" The Duke of Universal nodded affirmatively. "As long as you know the approximate area, it's easy to handle. After these few years, I still have some people to rely on, but in order to attract the attention of the inhumane. , I need the help of His Majesty’s Navy within a certain period of time! I implore your Majesty’s Navy to block the seas in general. And it can fund me a batch of weapons and materials free of charge. Raphael has promised to invest on my side, and he has 1,000 subordinates. People, and very familiar with the nearby sea area. We can use Huacheng Port to gather strength, which is enough to attract Gang Fei’s attention."
"There is no problem with blocking the sea and weapons and supplies." The fat man tilted his head. The finger flicked on the armrest. "As for attracting the attention of Gangfei, you can rest assured that they will be busy soon. I only hope that you can find out the place of house arrest as soon as possible!"
"What does your majesty mean?" Duke Putao raised his head in astonishment
"It's just a small storm! Even if I give Gang Fei a meeting gift" the fat man laughed in his seat, making the Duke of Pu Tao feel inexplicable
Capital of the Principality of Universal, Lisboa
The cold wind rolled up the dead leaves on the ground. Cut it into pieces like scissors. The streets at midnight appear lonely and desolate. The cold wind blows through the deserted streets and blows everything on the ground up. The dust flies in the sky randomly, making those yellowish ones. The roadside lights look even darker,
In the dark night, there were one or two weak dog barks, which made the silent night even more desolate. From time to time, one or two groups of patrolling Gangfei soldiers walked out of the darkness. Their heavy military boots made a dull sound on the bluestone street. Shocked every resident in the city,
Through the cracks in the windows, you can see the chilling light from the weapons of the patrolmen. In the corners of some streets, stray people lit fires. It is September and the Putao area near the coast is facing southward. The cold ocean currents bring the breath of winter. Under large areas of freezing weather, Putao has entered a real winter. Because of the lack of the most basic agricultural input, large areas of unprotected crops have frozen to death, and countless Putao villages have fallen into trouble. The offshore area has also entered a freezing period. In a white ice sea, fishing boats cannot go to sea at all.
In the port of Lisbon, people walking can see the inside of the harbor near the port. There is a large faint black giant, frozen like a statue on the sea. Everyone who passes there will have a few gazes. Looking sadly at these black spots, it was once the pride of the Duchy of Universal. More than thirty heavy warships were scuttled near the harbor, with huge masts leaning on the hull, with only some sail fragments on it. The side of every heavy warship is a black hole gap,
In the huge ice blocks, the split-hull warships are like wounded people relying on each other, like a group of prisoners who have been executed collectively, lying on the ice, letting the cold wind attack them. The warship is a sea power that the Principality has spent over a hundred years and countless manpower and material resources to build. Since the defeat of the war between Butu and Gangfei, the warship of the Principality has never left the port of Lisbonto again.
At the time of the fall of Lisbonto, the general soldiers on the battleship relied on these warships to inflict huge damage on the invading Gangfei. They used the speculative aircraft on the battleship to violently cover the siege army, resulting in More than 3,000 Congolese soldiers were killed in the north. A Gangfei general was seriously injured and eventually died. After the war, at the request of the Congolese people, these huge heavy warships were gathered and put on board. In the face of Lisboa’s trustees, ship after ship was sunk in the port,
This is a sign of the surrender of the Principality of Universal Settlements, and it is also the heart-wrenching pain of all Universal Settlements.
If it were the old principality era, the fishermen would see these heavy warships proud of the principality, leading them to break the ice and **** a large number of fishing boats into the sea, but now, fishermen can only choose to go inside early Lu makes a living, in the drifting, hope to survive the difficult time from August to warm March of the year, the refugees began to expand from the coast to the inland in September, thousands of fishermen drag their children and girls. Wandering around away from home, many people instinctively flocked to the capital of the principality.
Although the local sheriff has taken a lot of blocking measures, there are still many refugees entering the bustling streets of Lisbon through various channels. Some news from the north also circulated in Lisbon. Among them, the news that the Duke of Butau was assassinated in the northern Falcon Empire made Butau’s dissatisfaction with Gangfei intensified. Ten days ago, Lisbon He declared martial law and imposed a curfew. The Congolese troops stationed at Lisbonto strengthened their patrols and duties at night. And adopted more stringent penalties.
For a while, the people living here deeply felt the tension. However, in the base camp of the Congolese and African forces in Lisbon, all this tense atmosphere does not exist. As the governor of Lisbonto personally appointed by His Majesty the Emperor Gangfei, General Borde also felt the impact from the bad environment outside
"Father, I firmly oppose the withdrawal of troops from Lisbonto! I don't know whose proposal is, I think this person should be thrown into prison immediately!" The excited and high voice came from a young man wearing a blue empire uniform . Because of his anger, the young man's face looked unusually red, and his hand tightly held the saber around his waist. The fingertips flexed vigorously on the chrysanthemum stripes on the scabbard, as if to draw the sword at any time to vent the anger in his heart.
In the study room as warm as chūn. The bonfire in the fireplace was raging, and the beating flame from time to time emitted a bright light, dispelling the darkness and cold without a trace. There is a long-lasting light incense in the air. This is a precious spice from the Eastern Constantine Empire. Every gram is worth the same amount of gold on a huge desk. The various documents are in order. On the weapon rack are two staggered swords. The sharp tip of the sword reveals a breath of chill. The hilt is inlaid with gems of various sizes, making it look like nothing. They are weapons, but luxuries for decoration. They have never been used.
The ruddy-faced Governor of Lisbonto Polder merged with the documents in his hand, and he didn't care about the excitement of the young officer in front of him. He just glanced at the young man coldly. Indifferently said, "Orders are orders, as a soldier. You should know the consequences of violating the orders of your superiors"
The young man snorted in his nostrils. "These guys from the Ministry of Military Affairs don’t understand anything. The Empire bought the lives of 7,000 warriors. It was just a guess and asked the local garrison to leave Lisbon. Haha, I really don’t know if they should be cautious or timid"
"This is a matter for the military department. It has nothing to do with you or me!" Bould got up, lowered his head and fiddled with the flames in the fireplace, feeling that the room was warm enough, and leaned tiredly in the chair. Slowly said, "Some things are not as simple as you can see. According to the Ministry of Military Affairs, the Duke of Pu Tao has arrived in the flower city of the first island chain, and he has issued a declaration requesting that the Congolese and African troops leave Pu Tao. Nothing, but the trouble is that some people secretly agitated that the duke who had just been assassinated was assassinated because he was against us, and the assassin was also from Gangfei, and the general people's emotions have been completely biased towards this one. The Duke, there are intelligence reports that a large number of materials and weapons have been thrown into the Duke of Universal. The Duke of Universal has gathered 3,000 people to rehabilitate and will officially land on the mainland of Universal. This is for the people of Universal. The stimulus was great. In addition to this year’s cold winter, signs of resistance have begun to appear in various places."
"It's not just three thousand soldiers, we are a regular army of 11 thousand people," the young man said very dissatisfied.
"The Falcon Navy from the north blocked the open sea, and the navy idiots couldn't get out at all! What if there were more troops? "Bold cursed in a low voice." In the Principality of Universal, We are stationed with two squadrons of the Empire, but when we heard that it was against the Falcon Navy, neither of them would leave the port to fight!"
"Why is the Falcon Empire again? Didn't it mean that a truce has been agreed?"
The young man asked, in the recent period, there have been more and more rumors about these newly rising empires in the north. Some people say that this empire has power throughout the northwestern region of Obaro, and some people say that the homeland of this empire is overseas. A piece of land, but one thing is certain. This Falcon Empire has just defeated the Gauls in the north, and there is a faint tendency to become the new hegemon of the north.
"The Duke of Putao was assassinated in the Falcon Empire, and the upper layers of the Falcon Empire were furious. The agreement means that the armistice has not yet been truly truce! "Boulder poked his lips in disdain." Although the two countries had already ceased war on the face of it. , But that’s only the army. The other side was aggressive this time under the banner of punishing the real murderer. It sent an extremely powerful navy. Our navy is still fighting in the south. For the rest, don’t talk about blocking, just go out. If you don’t have the courage to fight, what can the military department do?"
"Navy! Why does the imperial navy be like this?" The young man heard such news for the first time in his mind. The army of the empire is brave and invincible
"In the northern hub of Caseli, the opposing fleet killed tens of thousands of us in one fell swoop, causing the imperial naval forces to completely abandon the north. After the battle, the navy has been deliberately avoiding the battle, and this time I heard , The empire was defeated like a mountain on the northern border. The famous empire Lanmia was martyred, and the 150,000 Lanmian legion was wiped out! All this was done by this Falcon Empire!"
"General Lanmia was martyred...!"
The young **** is sluggish, he is an admirer of the famous general Lanmia. In the beginning, the Republic of Congo occupied Putao, and Lanmia advocated forceful annexation. Although this has certain sequelae, as long as there is enough suppression, as long as it waits for 30 years, universal set will become a part of the empire.
"That’s why I said that this is a matter for the Ministry of Military Affairs! Although I do not agree with the Ministry of Military Affairs. I have to admit that the Ministry of Military Affairs is not wrong in its judgment of the situation."
Bold raised his head, God glanced out the window solemnly. As a senior officer stationed by Gangfei, his gaze was obviously farther than the young man, and he said with a heavy tone, "In this contest, we It’s just the status of a chess piece, and personal will is really not worth mentioning! If you really want to do something, you should take care of your security team first. I heard that your security team was dispatched in the east of the city yesterday. They killed more than a dozen generals when they wiped out the resisters. And these so-called resisters just said a few words slandering the empire on the side of the road. You are so reckless. You think the fire is burning too slowly. So do you want to add a stick of firewood?"
"The generals who rebel against the empire should die." The young officer is the eldest son of the sheriff Polder. He straightened his body and said unconvincedly, "I always thought that the The proposal is correct. We should adopt a policy of iron-and-blood annexation for General Tau, and resolutely execute all opponents. Let’s see who of these generalists dare to jump out. It’s like now, for six years, the empire’s treatment of General Tau. The policy has always been so weak, when will we be the head when we procrastinate like this..."
Bold's face changed slightly, and he slapped the table vigorously. "If the blind killing can be solved, then what do we need the local governor to do!"
"That’s why I think I should join the main army of the empire, instead of being a small governor like you!" The young man smiled coldly, closed his mouth, but refused to leave, just Stand upright there,
Boulder’s face was blue with anger, pointed his finger at him, gasped for a while, and said anxiously, "In your eyes, what are the consequences of swallowing general condoms!"
"Naturally is the foundation of building an empire. Let us go out of the current small peninsula in human footsteps! Just like the original Holy Empire, let the territory of the empire extend to Constantin" young man Ang The head **** said proudly,
"Stupid!" Bald was almost dizzy, reached out his hand, and shouted angrily. "What do you know? Do you think the empire doesn't want to swallow the general condom? But do you know the consequences of swallowing it? General condom? Behind the Principality is the Strandt Sea State. Although this country’s army is not very good, its geographical location is remote and its navy is extremely powerful. It is known as the strongest Central European Baro, not to mention the complicated Burrows family. , Has a marriage relationship with more than a dozen principalities of Central Europe"
"In the past few years, the empire has been conquering north and south and expanding vigorously at all costs, but what is the reason for the few results?
"Isn’t it compared with the emperor’s ambition~ IndoMTL.com~ The Ministry of Military Affairs knows that the army is exhausted, and can only support itself. If the empire really swallows the generals, the European countries It is inevitable to unite to deal with the Gangfei, and then there will be the Lantest Sea Powers attacking back and forth, relying on the current situation and military strength of the empire, being able to resist the pressure from the north is already reluctant, plus the pressure from the Central European and Baro countries... ...! "Boulder's voice stopped, but the meaning was already very obvious
"But giving up now, what is the difference between losing in the war!"
The young officer was completely willing to give up. Faced with his father's scolding, he did not back down at all. Instead, he took a step forward and said in a firm and decisive voice, "Am I wrong? If you know the empire, just give up like this. After countless warriors beat down with blood, General Lanmia will not be able to look at it!"
When the two people were arguing, there was a knock on the door
"What's the matter?" Polder looked up unexpectedly. At this moment, who would come in? As a result, his adjutant walked in the door, his face looked ugly, and the **** said hurriedly, "Your Excellency, something has happened. Suddenly a mob appeared in the eastern district and attacked the security team, as well as in the southern and western districts. The city is all messed up!"
"What!" Boulder's face changed drastically, and he hurried to the window. He saw a few thick black smoke straight up into the clouds. The flames were burning on the houses in the east, lighting up the sky and the streets. Above, there are soldiers rushing towards the rioted area
"Father, I will go to the riot zone!" The young officer, God Sè, turned excitedly and walked towards the gate.
