Power and Empire Chapter 1629: Black and White Kill (6)

The fat man rides on a black horse, with green mountain bushes in front of him, and the sound of ruts rolling down the mountain road in his ears. The mountain road is narrow and the cavalry accompanying him can’t stand side by side. He can only change from guards on two wings to front and back. The two teams, the carriage and the cavalry, dragged more than 200 meters in length on the winding mountain road,

The white clouds in the May sky are picturesque, pure and not stained with a trace of impurities, and the endless clear stream of the Pond’s mountains makes a ding-dong sound, just like an intoxicating organ in the night, and various plants by the stream. Green sè shrubs scattered high and low.

"Your Majesty Falcon, this is the rumored Kromdor Corridor! Before a road that is about to lead into the mountain stream, the Duke of Dunkirk on his horse turned around and pointed to the mountain road ahead to introduce the fat man Even an experienced caravan must be cautious when passing here, because the road is too steep, and most of the businessmen who have a family and business are not willing to take risks. They will choose the city of Kromdor in front of this road. Stop, and let the goods be unloaded directly here, so over a hundred years, this has created the most prosperous but also the most dangerous city in the Kingdom of Hundred-li! "

"Really?" The fat man glanced across the steep mountain stream in front of him, frowning slightly, and the scenery was picturesque, but a vitally dangerous place is also true. If there is an army guarding the intersection, even if it is Several times the enemy will also be blocked here,

"For most areas covered by pine needles and cold climates, this is one of the few places where you can enjoy the warm flowers and blossoms of chūn. Every chūn season, there are countless riches. People come here on vacation, appreciate the rare chūn days, and share the breath of life here." The Duke of Dunkirk's eyes flickered with a hint of intoxication, as if he fell into a certain memory

"It is indeed a beautiful place! But Lord Duke, how do I think you are so familiar with Sende?"

The fat man's gaze was retracted from a distance, and he asked in surprise, the other side worked so hard to explain to himself the customs along the way. Where is the danger, where is rich in what, such as the number of treasures, almost made the fat man think that the Duke of Dunkirk was actually the Duke of Sands.

"Hehe, your Majesty has only been in the northwest for a few years, so everyone will have this kind of confusion." The Duke of Dunker looked in a good mood, he hesitated, and said, "Actually, my ancestor of the Duchy of Dunkirk and the Duchy of Rusend The ancestors. When split from the Northwest Barbarians, they were best friends and brothers. One was in the south and the other was in the north. However, the following generations have a marriage relationship. Strictly speaking, I, the Duke of Dunkirk, is still the former Ruosen. Duke of Duke’s nephew, because my mother was the sister of the former Duke of Sunder, she was experiencing a civil strife. In order to protect me, I was in Sunder before going to the Duchy of Dunkirk to inherit the title at the age of sixteen. Get educated and grow up!"

"That's it!"

The fat man nodded. This time he wanted to use the cover of the Duke of Dunkel to enter Ruosende. He directly pointed out the fact that Kyoto controlled Ruosende from the Duke of Dunkirk, and thought that even if he would not be rejected, he would inevitably be embarrassed. He didn't expect that the Duke of Dunkirk turned pale. Rarely expressed their agreement directly, and now it seems that if the Duke of Dunkirk said it was true. It is rare to have a single mind with him, and he wants to take Ruosende, and the Duke of Dunkirk obviously has a plan to avenge the former Duke Ruosende on his own.

"Of course, not all rich people come for Jingsè, Kromdor has another thing that attracts them deeply." The Duke of Dunkirk looked at Fatty's somewhat unexpected face, and suddenly smiled at the corners of his mouth. He smiled, and pointed his finger at the grape racks exposed in the distant mountain basin. Speak slowly

"Your Majesty may not know that there are countless basins with a radius of only a few acres scattered in the surrounding mountains. The peculiarities of natural creation are best displayed here. This unique landform is in It was discovered by a traveler named La Paz more than 700 years ago, so he called this unique environment the terrain of La Paz. But this outstanding traveler would never have thought that his name would be because of it. And forever, this basin is the output of 30% of the economic income of the Ruosend Kingdom"

"No way, thirty percent! Are you sure?"

The fat man looked at the grape racks in the mountains and said, "Although the Principality of Rusende is not rich, it is definitely not poor. The amount of 30% is at least more than 500,000 gold coins. These seemingly inconspicuous but unremarkable grape racks can hold up to half a million? Just kidding, are these grape racks all gold?

"If your majesty promises me a question, I will tell your majesty the answer!" The Duke of Dunkirk narrowed his eyes into a line and deliberately bought a key

"What's the problem? If it's the marriage mentioned last time, then forget it. If your man thinks his daughter is ugly, he can't let me push him in the fire pit. I already have 10 wives, and one more. The lover of the pile! "The fat man bulged his eyes without showing weakness,

Since the relationship between the two is getting closer and closer, the previous gap has almost disappeared. Between the two monarchs, although the fat man is more powerful, the Duke of Dunkirk, who is a dozen years older than the fat man, always fights. As he grows older, he likes to make insignificant jokes, especially when he left Lengwei County yesterday, the Duke of Dunkirk once again proposed the marriage between the two countries and was rejected by the fat man on the spot.

Enough wives! Fatty also has a headache. Although I really hope that I can hold the beauty of the world in one hand, I also know that some people’s cheap daughters are not easy to marry.

"Don't worry, it has nothing to do with marriage!"

The Duke of Dunkirk smiled happily. In the past few days, he has discovered that this guy in front of him, after throwing away all the glory aura, is actually a very lazy and talkative guy. I really don’t know how this guy uses thousands. The army has brought out the huge Falcon Kingdom!

It is said that on the opposite side of the sea, the land of the Falcon Kingdom is almost twice the size of the entire northwest, with a military strength of 500,000. Such a powerful force is probably not inferior to the Gaul Empire, so it is no wonder that it can be used. The posture of barbarian invasion, in just one year, they destroyed Normandy and annexed the four countries on the northwest coast. The southwest dared not even raise their heads. Those Southwest Army prisoners who had been put back, talked about the Northwest Biye Valley, and talked about being caught in a snowy day. Forcing the road to be built, it was full of blood and tears. If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, the Duke of Dunkirk would never believe it. It was this guy with a bit of silly and rascal feeling in front of him who smashed the entire northwest coast for thousands of miles. soil of. The more than 100,000 Northwest Allied forces fought all over the place to find teeth, which directly changed the pattern of the Northwest for a century.

"Then what's your problem? ‘I heard that it’s not a marriage, the fat guy was relieved immediately

"I'm just curious. His Majesty said that he would sneak into the capital of Rusende in secret, but how do I feel that Your Majesty doesn't seem to care about revealing his identity?" Duke Dunkel asked solemnly

"Oh? Why do you think that?" The whip that was gently swaying in Fatty's hand stopped, and the expression in his eyes suddenly became sharp and piercing, with an eccentric chill.

Under the fat man's sight, the Duke of Dunkel trembled inwardly. I don’t know why, he always thinks that the Wikia Falcon’s gaze can penetrate people’s hearts, but the words have already been spoken, so he had to bite the bullet and boldly said, "I’m just guessing, Your Majesty will ride into Lengwei County in the same car with me. No one should have noticed it. Even if someone finds it suspicious, I won’t let you think about it for the time being, but when you leave Lengwei County, Your Majesty mounts the horse in a majestic manner, and the cavalry guards under your command also echoed back and forth, seemingly fundamental I don’t care, I am being followed by so many dark eyes.

"At this moment, as long as you are not blind or foolish, you will know that your Majesty is the only guard in this cavalry team who can walk side by side with his lord." The voice of the Duke of Dunkirk stopped. He said in a more serious tone, "What's more, look at the entire northwest, except for your majesty. Which guard will have the king's wind that looks like your majesty and is like no one else? This is also the best proof of your majesty's identity!"

"The wind of the king? Haha...The king of shit, don't use such words to perfuse me, I know you actually want to ask me, are you not afraid of revealing your identity and attracting the army to force you? Kill, it would be a shame to be killed by someone like this"

A grim look flashed across the fat man’s face, hehe smiled." Actually, you don’t have to worry at all. As long as I have not stepped through the gate of the capital of Ruosende, they will continue to pretend to be stupid and look like they don’t know anything. , So that my prey can hit me like a mosquito hangs on a spider web,

They just need to open the net and wait in front. Why bother to startle me? They didn't kill me at that time. My **** turned back and they were crying! "

At the moment, the Duke of Dunkirk feels that the fat man is like a rascal

The fat man doesn’t care about this. He looked into the distance, his voice stopped, and he said in a vertical and horizontal tone

"Do they really think that I need to play that kind of little tricks, do they really dare not tell each other about my identity?

Just kidding! I didn't want to hide it, I deliberately let them see through, just let them smug in secret, otherwise, this game is not too fun! "

"What does your majesty mean?" The Duke of Dunkirk stayed on the horse. For the first time he heard that there are people who dare to play this way. This is simply bullying the enemy! , The Duke of Dunkirk suddenly felt that who is this fat man’s enemy is really sad!

The fat man smiled disapprovingly, "I did it on purpose to expose my identity. Their eyes are all on me, watching me step by step into their arrangement, it will definitely be very refreshing, right?

But they will never know that as I arrive under the capital city of Ruosende, there may be tens of thousands of war-conscious troops!

In terms of time, my 60,000 troops have arrived in Lengwei County at this moment. In a few days, even if they waited for their reaction, it was too late! Since I dare to play Black and White Kill, I will never give them a chance to comeback! "

"It turns out that Your Majesty has long been..."The Duke of Dunkirk shuddered unknownly on the horse's body. He was speechless for a while, but his face was full of horrified respect.

It's really terrible. He intended to remind the Vickia Falcon that the other party has seen through this plan. It is very likely that small actions such as an assassination will be arranged halfway. The Vickia Falcon must be prepared for it, but he hasn't Thinking of the Viking Falcon with such courage and arrangement,

I entered the country alone, and it turned out that the other party would not know how to see through. One person was in front and tens of thousands of troops were behind. The other party knew it well and opened the door to let the Vicia Falcon step into the trap step by step. It is not safe to send the Vicia Falcon to his heart, one black and one white, and the other party automatically enters the trap in order to make the Vicia Falcon unaware. It must withdraw all the arrangements along the way, but did not expect to be in their line of sight. When focusing on the Vicia Falcon, where the Vicia Falcon has walked, the door to Ruosend has quietly opened.

After counting rì, the tens of thousands of soldiers approaching the city will be enough to crush their self-righteous calculations!

"Forget it, don't talk about these boring things, you haven't told me how these grape racks bear gold!"

The fat man felt a little embarrassed in the atmosphere. Changed the topic from the new,

The Duke of Dunkel just turned around from his trance, knowing that Vicia Falcon was stepping down for himself, and he realized that the fat man in his heart was actually quite pleasing to the eye. He smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don’t look at this. The soil is not fertile, almost a barren land, but this meager soil produces the best quality grapes in the world.

"This kind of grapes is not sweet at all, sour and astringent. Moreover, the grapes with small fruit particles can make the famous Bochum wine"

"Bochumde wines! Are you saying that these grapes produce Bochum wines" The fat man looked at the grape shelf unexpectedly, his eyes lit up. He now knows why the Duke of Dunkirk said this. It is because of this. Bochum wine is too valuable,

The Bochum wine produced by Ruosende is the best wine in the northwest. If it is sold to Kyoto in the Gaul Empire through a caravan, it will be a sky-high price.

That is the holy item in the minds of all alcoholics who like it. Even the royal family of the Gaul Empire showed an extreme preference for this wine,

For businessmen, Bochum wine is a symbol of wealth. It’s liquid gold. Just a bucket is hundreds of dazzling gold and orange coins.

Unfortunately, the output of this popular wine is also very low. The limited quantity is pitiful, the annual output is less than 2,000 barrels"

"Half of them will be regarded as gifts dedicated to the empire, so less than half flowed into the outside. But only a thousand barrels, the things are rare and expensive, especially the wines of some years, they are extremely precious, they are big Most of them became the treasures used by the wealthy people of Gaul and Kyoto to show off in the main hall of the banquet. "The Duke of Dunkel talked freely, with a bit of indulge in his eyes." In Kyoto, a family's heritage can even be derived from how much It can be seen from the top Bochum wine collection that even the average nobleman can only drink the second-class goods.

"But even so, it is impossible to enjoy such treatment in other places except for the city of Cromdor. The difficult roads and limited production make this precious wine go to other places. It’s an item that can’t be found, it’s no wonder that so many people will flock to it, making it a luxurious place"

"Unfortunately, it's not the time now!" The fat man stared at the grape shelf where the green shoots had just emerged, subconsciously licked his chapped lips, muttered to himself, and just realized the energetic jokes just now. It’s already starting to smoke in my throat,

"If your majesty doesn't mind, I have a winery dedicated to Tibetan wine in Kromdor!" The Duke of Dunkirk has his mouth upturned and his tone is a bit proud. I suppressed my momentum, and now I finally get back a bit,

"Is this true?" The fat man has always been thick-skinned like a city wall. He turned his head with unaware eyes, licked his lips and said, "I'm not afraid of you making a joke. I've been in the northwest for two years. Although I have heard about the famous Bochum wine for a long time, because it is too expensive and scarce, I have some, but they are not the top class. Most of them are sent back to the country and given to others, while the top Bochum bottle is hard to find. Even if there is, who is willing to take it out and drink it!"

"For a king like your Majesty, only the top Bochum is worthy! "The rare and serious of the Duke of Dunkirk" My winery is in Kromdor, and every year I send someone to buy it in Kromdor. A little bit of poor Bochum wine, except for some of them to drink, most of them will be given out as gifts, but there will always be a bottle of the best as a collection."

"Leaving Ruosende at the age of sixteen, now thirty years have passed. The winery also has 29 bottles of the best Bochum wine. If you count the bottle in the Ducal Palace, it is exactly 30 bottles. "The Duke of Dunkel looked at the winding mountains and seemed to be muttering to himself "Thirty years, just like a dream"

It is the early summer of May, and there are countless small flowers of blue powder and yellow teeth dotted with it, which has a special charm.

The entire city of Kromdor is located beside a huge crescent-shaped mountain lake, lying peacefully in the core of the basin.

Surrounded by undulating hills and fields, it is a rare and dangerous place in the Ruosend Basin. The straight road becomes winding and winding and the main road has taken 20 years to use. A mountain trail that crosses the mountains built by more than 100,000 laborers,

Passing through several mountains, there are bridges between valleys, staggering trails, and a backlog of thick leaves on the side of the road.

The horseshoe stepped on to make a creaking backlog,

In the Shoufu of Cromdor County, there is an asymmetrical and irregular building, which is high in the east and low in the west, like a undulating mountain range. In this historic and peculiar building, all the layouts retain their original appearance hundreds of years ago.

The only difference is that in the inner courtyard of this building, a unique room is built. This room has always been heavily guarded. Without the approval of the owner of that room, no one would dare to step into it without authorization. There is no door, no window, no luxurious decoration, except for two ordinary long-backed stools, there is only the zhōngyāng long table.

At one end of the long table, there is a row of wine racks. County guard Kryen sits next to the wine rack and puts down the secret report he just received~IndoMTL.com~The most prominent officials stood tremblingly. On the opposite side, they didn't even dare to let out the atmosphere.

Although these people are usually famous in front of everyone, they all feel the anger of the county guard when they arrive at this place.

They also heard some rumors that the capital demanded that merchants be restricted everywhere. Didn't this kill the people of Kromdor?

Without merchants to transport, Bochum wine, which is equivalent to gold outside, is a pile of worthless fermented products

"What do you think about the order of the capital?"

County guard Kryen glanced across the faces of several officials. He had actually made a calculation in his heart. He had just received a very unexpected and shocking news. This time he was inside the motorcade with the Duke of Dunkirk. , One of them may be the Vekia Falcon! , I felt my heart trembling when I thought of this Kryen, the most powerful monarch in the Northwest came to his own territory! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Kerui family! If the big tree Ruosende has rotted from its roots, why don't you look for a bigger tree that is stronger.
