Power and Empire Chapter 1963: Empire Dawn (4)
The door of the room was closed behind Resabaqi. Outside the door was the Hayela guard. He walked down the stairs to the open courtyard on the first floor. The strong and sturdy Resabaqi’s captain walked up quickly.
glanced at the left and right guards with indifferent faces, the captain of the guard stopped his master’s dignified face, and asked in a low voice, "My lord, is this okay this time?"
Reza Baqi blinked at him, implying that I can’t talk about it here. Although this time I came to Hayala’s confidant, who knows if the emperor of Istanbul is here to spy on the black scorpion? It’s absolutely impossible for people like Khayala to control the military and political power of a party without the eyeliner of the emperor of Istanbul.
The captain of the guard understood, and hurriedly followed, Reza Baqi walked to the street, turned into a clean corner, and shook his head and said, "Not ideal. The old fox Hayala did not agree, but did not refuse! "
" What does this mean? That’s three million gold coins. Almost the adult’s proceeds from the sale of all his property. For this, the adult even sold the king’s gems that have been passed down in the family for 150 years! None of these conditions are agreed, so the only way to get rid of the emperor jackal is to take force to eradicate the emperor jackal. "The captain of the guard gave a stunned look on his face, his fingers clenched together, and there was a sound of rubbing knuckles.
"Eradication by force? Are you looking for death!" Reza Baqi smiled at the corner of her mouth, as if she heard something interesting, she said.
"Hayela grew fat, but he was not foolish, and he was the first military commander who took down half of the territory of Istanbul. His force is even more amazing. In the past ten years, he has rarely seen him personally shoot. Some people have forgotten this"
"No, just Hayala's pig head, how powerful can it be?" The captain of the guard was very dissatisfied with his arms as thick as big legs for the time being, saying that it was like Hayala, and he could beat ten. One!
"I haven’t seen Ha Ye pull his hand. But I believe there are many people who want to assassinate him, but for so many years, that guy’s still alive and kicking proves that the assassination is useless, and I have heard my father say, two Ten years ago, the life-and-death battle between the Istanians and the Eeros was that Hayerah used 40,000 camel cavalry forces to raided Hokuriya, the headquarters of the 150,000 Eero Army in the middle, and personally beheaded Eero. The handsome Upton Erbke made it difficult for the 150,000 Erot Army to advance without a lead. In the end, all the Istanians who counterattacked had their heads chopped off! Are you sure that using assassination is the right choice?"
Rui Sha Baqi rolled her eyes. The voice paused, and he glanced at the stunned captain of the guard, raised his head and glanced at the sunlight above his head, and took a deep breath unnaturally
"Actually, if the other party did not refuse, it was already the best result"
"At least, the jackal that Thoradin relied on the most has now begun to be rebellious. This pair of enviable monarchs and ministers finally cracked, Thoradin is a great talent. It is hard to see for a hundred years, but it is still difficult to get rid of the emperor’s suspicion. Nature,
" Of course, if it were not for the 15,000 Wilderness Army under Hayala’s command, it would fight hard and non-cavalry in Focordilla. In the end, although the gang and non-cavalry were defeated, it was unexpectedly restored by everyone. The defeat was lost, but there were less than three thousand people left. Nine soldiers from the wilderness killed five people. Four were seriously injured, or Thoradin would not be so eager to weaken the power of the wild-born Eastern governor. !"
"Those wild people should have died long ago. I will never forget how these barbarians killed the captives that our army surrendered!" The captain of the guard flushed his eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, "This time Thoradin is treated like this. They deserve it. In the eyes of the Istanians, there is no difference between the wild people and the slaves, but they all think that the Istanians will give them the opportunity to stand on their own."
"You are right, the Istanians did not have the possibility of letting the wilderness stand on their own from the beginning! They need the power of the wilderness, but they are raised as pets, and they will be killed when it is time to kill!" Resaba His tone was a little sighed, "And Thoradin is obviously old! I can't wait to arrange the funeral!"
"What, no, Thoradin’s forty-five year old celebration has only just passed four months!" The captain of the guard blinked his eyes and couldn’t believe it. He admired Resaba. If anyone said that the emperor of Istanbul, who is now showing extremely energetic energy, is already old and late, the captain of the guard will definitely get him together and find his teeth.
" You don’t know, the Istanian royal family has a genetic disease that is not well known to outsiders. Over the past three hundred years, there have been 19 kings of Istan who have been enthroned, and the total number of Istan kings who lived to 60 years old is not Up to three people!"
Resabaqi laughed very freely. "We have had a two-hundred-year alliance with the Istanians and a hundred-year war. Naturally, the situation of the Istanian royal family is well understood. In fact, the Feishan Kingdom has The four princesses were once married to the Istan royal family, and one of the princesses was the queen mother of Istan.
"In her letter to Fei Shan, she clearly mentioned this disease that caused her to lose her son. She called this disease "king's disease"
" King’s disease!" The captain of the guard took a breath. In Istanbul culture, the more the disease with the noble name, the more it represents the helplessness and desolation with no cure.
" Although I don’t know what caused it, that’s the case! It may be related to the exceptionally vigorous energy of the Istan kings! "Resabaqi’s voice stopped for a while." Latin’s life is less than fifteen years. Hayala, who has weakened his military power, instructed the local governor to target the wilderness forces that have gradually risen in the past few years! Regardless of the opposition of everyone, he personally led the Istanbul army and Wang Tairong to conquer Gangfei, In order to complete the transfer of imperial power, Thoradin is telling all the generals of the Istan Empire who is the new master they need to be loyal to!
" With the proud military exploits of sweeping the Gangfei Empire ahead, no one dares to question the general trend of Wang Tairong ascending the throne! "Risa Baqi's voice paused, and his eyes flashed repeatedly, and he continued." I don’t hesitate to squeeze all the funds and assets this time, but also take the risk to win over Hayala, because I have a hunch,
" Thoradin’s final battle with Feshan should have been in the past few years, otherwise he might not have that vigorous energy!"
The captain of the guard shuddered with a heavy voice, "My lord is talking about a decisive battle!"
Reza Baqi smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, a decisive battle! And it's a battle of life and death! Haven't you found out yet? Thoradin used his army to eradicate the worry of the Gangfei Empire, not just for the sake of that year. The grievance is to complete the encirclement of Fei Shan’s things"
" Many people would think that the 300,000 Istanian troops staying in the north of Gangfei for a long time is meaningless, but I personally think that this is Thoradin’s most terrifying killer move. Both morale and equipment are in the best condition. The 300,000 Istanbul army, once the direction is changed to go straight to Feishan, and then cooperate with the other side of the Istanbul army to attack at the same time.
"Then what shall we do now? The captain of the guard has a pale face,
Sabaqi, under his gaze, his eyebrows curled slightly, his chin was held in his hand, and he said to himself ""It’s just now, I don’t know that Thoradin handed over the command of the other side of the Istanian army. Who! At first I thought it would be Hayala. Although this jackal has lost most of the Wilderness Legion, its combat power is still quite terrifying. Fe Shan can fight against almost no generals. If Khayera hadn’t accepted those things, the only thing I could do now was to do my best. Get rid of Hayala! "
" But now it is certain that it is not Hayala, and Emperor Thoradin is obviously unwilling to give him this highest honor, and then look at the generals in Istanbul. Those who can bear such a heavy burden are now following in Suo In addition to Hayela, Latin is the military general Marquis Appala, known as Hurricane Huang, and Marquis Feifou, the master of offense and defense."
Risa did not look up at Baqi." "These two men are powerful generals under Thoradin who can command more than 100,000 troops. They also have their own troops and core troops, and there is almost no loss in the Congo-Africa war. If I were Thoradin, I would definitely choose one of the two! "
" Start that line. In any case, the news must be sent back immediately! "Reza Baqi waved his hand to the captain of the guard with piercing eyes and sighed." The rest depends on Fei Shan's own luck. Up!"
Guangzhou is not south-central. Besuka,
Late at night, in the flowing stream, a small warship flying the Falcon Empire Navy flag bypassed the river bend in front and entered the long river channel outside Besuka City. The sails on the masts were all lowered. The ship completely protruded from the belly of the ship with eighteen oars on each side and moved forward. Every step along the side of the ship, an oil lantern was hung, and it circled the ship densely, and two towering at the center of the deck On the first floor of the ship building, on the observation deck outside the top helm room stands a chubby young man with black hair fluttering by the night breeze. Standing with his hands holding hands can give people the extraordinary spirit of a lofty mountain. , And has the style of an unparalleled heroic overlord.
The young man’s eyes are like stars in the dark night, flashing brightly, watching the lights of Besuka city not far away, this temporary Kyoto of the Gangfei Empire, after the Gangfei Empire chose to surrender, its sphere of influence has shrunk. In the four provinces, Besuka, a temporary Kyoto, was abandoned and incorporated into the newly established Besuka Province of the Falcon Empire. The warship drew to the shore at a small pier in front, and the hull made a squeezing sound. , Outside the pier is the central army of the thousand empires responsible for guarding. The black armor is like ink and the spears are like snow. There is a sturdy atmosphere that has been killed for a long time.
Bezuka is the temporary Kyoto of the Congo empire. Although the business is not prosperous and the population is not very large, the facilities are very complete, the road traffic is smooth, and the waterway is connected to the north and the south, such as the small pier outside the city. Special reinforcement, it can dock large merchant ships going north and south, because for small warships that are not much different from merchant ships, there is no feeling of being too crowded when docking.
Valithian was standing on the pier in a black general uniform. He saw the small warship slowly docking. He hurried up and paid a respectful military salute to the young man who came down. He said in a condensed voice, "Your Majesty, how are you here? Now, although it has been controlled here, the Gangfei people are not so honest, especially some of the disbanded Gangfei soldiers still lingering on the empire, our patrol team has also been attacked outside the city, so your majesty came here. , It is too dangerous!"
"Danger? This is not a battlefield, but I smelled the aura of the battlefield, tell me what's going on!" The young man glanced at Varisian in front of him indifferently, and said coldly, "Look There is one thing you didn’t figure out. This is not universal, so the universal set is not applicable here!
Resolute and resolute, blood for blood, thunder means to deter the enemy is the empire’s usual means, but more is to figure out the problem"
"If I'm not wrong, you must have not issued the imperial decree, because most of the land and industries here are in the hands of the wealthy businessmen in Bezuka. Some time ago, there was a famine and they made a lot of money. When Gangfei evacuated Besuka from the court, they bought the entire Besuka property and nearby land at a low price. Otherwise, the former Gangfei officers might make trouble, but the soldiers under their command absolutely did not. Interested to accompany them to fight against the empire. The empire has occupied so many areas, and I don’t see anyone owning land and I still want to go to death!"
Sweat beads appeared on Varysian’s forehead. He hesitated and explained, “The Gangfei people put us together before retreating. They knew that we would distribute the land to the peasants after the occupation, so they Before the evacuation, they were sold to Besuka’s merchants at extremely low prices. After the Empire took over, these merchants relied on the status of business alliance merchants, saying that the land was private property bought by individuals through legitimate means, and refused. So, until now, the decree is still too late to be promulgated! As soon as I received the order from your majesty, I immediately sent someone to send the order to the major merchants in Bezuka. They were required to have it before noon tomorrow. Hand over all the land..."
"This is your business. Although the Empire restricts the power of the army to interfere in the area, it is not enough for the merchant to ride on the head of the army!" The young man waved his hand expressionlessly. I interrupted him and said, "Thinking about your inexperience and never dealing with such things, forget it this time. If I don't see the imperial land decree posted in the morning after tomorrow, you, the person in charge of the general area, don't have to do it. As for the business alliance’s problem in this matter, haha. Some people have too long hands, think too much, and don’t know the situation. They really should be cut off because they can be used to bargain. "
The young man smiled coldly at the corner of his mouth, and walked forward. He came to Besuka not for this incident, but for something more important. The Istanbul people who occupied the northern part of Congo sent a secret envoy. Asked to negotiate with the Falcon Empire about the exchange of land for weapons, because some of the weapons involved are secrets of the Empire, so such matters cannot be handled by the Empire’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The young man has already sent someone to contact him, and he sits in Bessu. The card is waiting for news. This is the core of Central Africa, and it is less than 20 miles away from the negotiation site. You can get the news in the first time and make a decision!
The most important thing, young people want to know, what do the Istanbulians want to do with so many heavyweight weapons? From here, the young man seemed to smell an unusual wind direction. Every move of the 300,000 Istanian army was enough to stir the nerves of Central Europe.
Varisian followed him, explaining the current situation of Besuka while walking,
Out of prudence, the young man did not settle in Besuka city, but a fairly quiet manor outside the city. Varisian specially dispatched a thousand-strong central army to defend the empire that accompanied him. There are also a hundred guards, and the five-mile range of the manor is completely restricted. The manor is personally selected by Valisian.
He is very familiar with his lord’s habit, so the manor he chose is definitely Bezuka’s top manor, the decoration is not gorgeous, but the book shelf of hòuhòu is filled with information about the customs of the country, and it is completely used. The full set of furniture made by Guibi Golden's brown-red Jiemu definitely reflects the status and status of the original owner of the manor.
In fact, this manor is the private property of the Minister of Military Affairs of the Congolese and Africa and the Imperial Marshal Marcos"
In the early morning, when young people open the window, they can see the white clouds of bóbó floating in the light blue sky, sometimes gathering and sometimes dissipating, just like the scattered sheep on the prairie,
It’s mid-to-late May, the season for the fattest fish in the river. Under the rising sun, there is a curved river channel like a golden band below, and the river surface flashes with Lingling waves in the sun. In the distance, you can see the densely distributed low-rise houses in Besuka city in the morning mist, crowded layer by layer. Several yellow stone steps are staggered like a chessboard. An elliptical one can be seen on the right side of the city. The big castle stands on it, with a high pointy roof, rounded top and bottom. The thick main body of the castle is like a bunch of stone piers crowded together, giving people a real but majestic feeling.
The young man looked at the sky. The sun rose to a quarter of the sky. He looked back from the distant city of Besuka. The young man sat on the chair with his legs upright and picked up one with interest. The book, turning the pages inside, the cool May wind blew in from the window, bringing people a kind of coolness, the young man’s nose stirred a little, and there was a familiar smell in the wind, it was the smell of blood,
Has " begun? "The young man talked to himself without changing his expression, turning the pages of the book lightly with his hands,
In the direction of Besuka, it was miserable. Under the push of the murderous army, people were constantly pushed out from the city, and they lined up along the river beach outside the city. There were thousands of people, Wari Sean was sitting next to the river beach, holding a list in his hand, and shouting the name of a person, who was pushed out by the soldiers
"Is your land handed over?" Valisian looked at this smuggler who had a cold face to him a few days ago, and the army's servant slowly raised the beheading axe.
"Master Varisian, that's my private property, even the military..." Before the smuggler had finished speaking, he had already called the name of the next person, the smuggler. Looking at the sky spinning in amazement, a blood-spraying headless corpse fell straight in front of him. The faces of the lined-up crowd turned pale, and there was even a commotion,
"How can the military be like this, we are members of the business alliance!" Someone in the crowd shouted like this
"Who is from the business alliance?" Varisian raised his head with interest. Damn, I've seen you guys dislike for a long time. A young man with a fearless look came out of the crowd, stunned. Rebelliously said, "I, I am the person in charge of the business alliance in Besuka area. I ask the military to treat it accordingly, and to compensate and apologize to the merchants who killed the business alliance without authorization!"
"Apologize? I will, but after killing you all!" Valisian grinned, waved his hand, and the soldiers pushed the young man to the river~IndoMTL.com ~You guys, how can you guys. . . . . Ah" the young man’s screaming cry stopped abruptly, and a red blood column sprayed from the headless chest into the air. In the sun, it flashed with red light.
He is a purely military background, he is really unfamiliar with local management, and this time he hastily took over a large area of the empire without much preparation. According to the common sense seen in the past, wherever the empire army went , It is naturally peaceful and smooth,
But I didn’t expect to encounter a group of powerful merchants in Besuka, the capital. If they are all gangsters, it’s okay. If you kill, you will kill. When it comes to black hands, Varisian thinks that he is no better than others Bad, but by the way, most of the people here are smugglers from the Falcon Empire,
Putau is the stronghold of empire smuggling. It is heinously profitable. Many smugglers from the Falcon Empire do not show up. In fact, their families are not inferior to those of the empire. Instead, they are used to smuggling business. However, the fear of the emperor’s army is reduced a bit. This time more than a dozen powerful smuggling merchants have united and annexed 80% of the entire Bezuka region’s land and industry at a very low price. ,
Right now, the non-occupied area has not been completely stabilized. For these smugglers who are accustomed to speculation, it is when they think they can grab more benefits. Bezuka is one of the negotiating parties with the imperialists. A heavy weight, no blood, how could these guys vomit it easily like this.
