Power and Empire Chapter 2178: Mainland Public Enemy (6)

Istan Empire Kyoto, the atmosphere of early winter is getting stronger and stronger, and the flower beds on both sides of the street have begun to see traces of hoarfrost. This year is a very sad year for the Istan Empire, and last year’s vigorous breakthrough When the large batch was shipped back from Kyoto, the streets and windows were full of cheering crowds. The difference between the petals of various colors that were thrown in the sky was that the shops on the front of the street and the windows of the residents above were hung with black that represents sorrow. The long strip, there are no pedestrians on the street, the shop is deserted and only half of the door is open, the long black strips all over the street are blown by the cold wind, making a horrible sound of popping

Three months have passed since the emperor’s disappearance. From midsummer to early winter, there is no news. Although the Istan Empire government has not made a clear statement, everyone is very clear in their hearts that Emperor Thoradin I should not Exist in this world,

The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Empire asked the entire Kyoto to ban noise and all entertainment and banquets half a month ago. It is the custom of the Istan Empire to mourn the emperor’s death for 30 days.

The wind turbulence caused by the Eastern Province has made Kyoto even worse. Now the entire empire is looking at Kyoto, but the situation is surprising. The rebellion of the Eastern Province has not made the second prince of Kyoto in Passiveness, on the contrary, helped him a huge favor, which greatly accelerated his once difficult steps towards the throne of the Empire. The spectacle lenses in various parts of the Empire were even broken.

"The lesson of Fei Shan’s fiasco is still there, and now it’s the Eastern Province. The military department’s supervision has already reached such a level that the lack of intelligence is even more like a blind man! "The two princes who have always been more gentle and elegant. After receiving the news of the rebellion of the Eastern Province, he unexpectedly used decisiveness and courage that exceeded everyone's expectations. The two military undersecretaries responsible for the regional supervision and intelligence departments of the imperial affairs department were abolished in one go. This act was almost naked in declaring war on the imperial government.

In response to the order of the second prince, the military leaders rarely remained silent this time. no way. The second prince is standing on the righteousness this time. Feishan’s fiasco has become the most painful scar in the entire Istan Empire. Hundreds of thousands of troops, an emperor, and an emperor occupying 60% of it. Group, where is all the loss at once. The reason for all this has been confirmed by various investigations. The chief of staff responsible for formulating the battle plan of the imperial government turned out to be the undercover agent of the Feishan. For the entire imperial party, it is simply a resounding record that cannot be more resounding. Slapped. The military leaders finally stabilized the situation, and another rebellion of the Eastern Province emerged. The governor of the Eastern Province, Hayela, is the military's leading general. His rebellion is completely general to the military. The last trace of arrogance is gone,

The second prince seized this opportunity and reached into the military department in one fell swoop in the name of picketing failure. Even if the bigwigs wanted to stop, they could only stare at him. These two parts are the core of the core of the Ministry of Military Affairs. Regional supervision is the most fundamental responsibility of the Ministry of Military Affairs, and the intelligence department. It is also the prerequisite for all the combat plans of the Ministry of Military Affairs. The second prince’s hand is quite cruel. With the help of the Eastern Province rebellion, the emperor’s arrogance was severely suppressed, and at the same time, the confidant general was also pushed into the emperor. * Fang's base camp, the Ministry of Military Affairs.

For the first time, the emperor’s political power was dispersed in the hands of one person. That was the second prince, and now it is not only the military that has surrendered. Even the ministers are also speculating that the first step of His Royal Highness the Second Prince should be to wait for the throne of the Emperor of the Emperor to become the 17th Emperor of the Istan Empire.

With this kind of consciousness, the atmosphere of remembering the death of the old emperor is not enough. There is no shortage of flattering villains, and the ministers also know that it took twenty years when the former emperor was there. The heir he cultivated was not the second prince. If it were not for Feishan’s reversal of the battle and the disappearance of Emperor Thoradin, at this moment, the one standing in Kyoto is his Royal Highness. Where is the second prince? The royal family’s mercilessness It has always been shocking. If the crown prince is extremely, it is a great good thing for the second prince to be sent to remote areas to live unmistakably until he grows old. Where is the chance to be firmly rooted in the empire as it is now. Kyoto, the next generation of emperors faintly

So, the mourning of the second prince for the former emperor is very limited! The long black belt all over the city seemed too outdated at this time. It was time to take it down and replace it with the bright yellow long belt representing the enthronement of the new emperor. Already holding the three-meter-long iron fork in his hand, he took off the black long strips along the street, and then hung the yellow long strips on the canopy of the roadside trees. The shops on both sides of the street began to open the double doors, and the old and damaged wind lanterns were also destroyed. Replaced with brand-new lanterns, the magnificent cavalry statues on the city square were also rubbed with rags, revealing the momentum of the Istanian Empire to swallow all the wastes.

In the cold morning breeze, a black carriage appeared gently on the street, the wheels crushed on the flat boulevard, making a popping sound, and the door handle had wings spread out. The high-spirited golden falcon, which is the symbol of the Falcon Empire, on both sides of the carriage is followed by a team of twenty black cavalry, wearing light black armor, and a long red cloak dragged from the shoulder to the horse's ass. The morale of the cavalry was engulfed with a trace of the breath from the battlefield. The horseshoe rumbling, like winter thunder, the first-born sunlight shone on these black cavalry, and the street suddenly felt a bit cold

The Istanbul people who saw this scene subconsciously lowered their gazes, which contained complexity, humiliation and obvious fear,

The Falcon Empire! The veritable first power of the Obaro continent, a million army invincible, a vast area spanning the entire north-central Obaro, its trembling naval warships are now showing off outside the port of Kyoto, and the Kyoto side has even protested. Dare not have a voice

"I heard that this negotiation is about the return of hundreds of thousands of emperors from the sea. As long as they are willing to pay a certain ransom, these hundreds of thousands can come back, but the adults are pretending to be deaf and dumb! "A citizen whispered to the person next to him

"Really, where did you hear it?"

Someone hesitated to ask, the imperial army defeated Fei Shan, and Kyoto blocked the follow-up news. Therefore, most citizens believed that the troops who followed the emperor were basically captured and captured by the Feishans even if they were not dead. What does it have to do with the Falcon Empire?

"It’s true, listen to the fleet that returned from the Feshan coast. Although the army following the emperor suffered heavy casualties, there are still hundreds of thousands of people survived! "The citizen felt that he was questioned and was very angry. , Said unceremoniously." And the people who came back said that the Falcon Empire was willing to return these hundreds of thousands of people to us intact, but the Kyoto side actually shied away for various reasons. In fact, it is plain, nothing more than it is. Fearing that these hundreds of thousands of soldiers will be in trouble when they come back, just let them fend for themselves on the opposite side of the sea!"

"Asshole, how could this happen!"

The conversation crowd suddenly became a little angry, because of the blockade of news from the upper level. They only now know that hundreds of thousands of Estantian* people are lonely overseas. They fought **** battles for the empire across the sea for several months and suffered countless deaths and injuries. However, they did not choose to surrender. It was rejected for this kind of intrigue, so that it was embarrassing and difficult to live on the other side of the sea. Putting this kind of thing in anyone's ears is like a fuse!

"Hehe, a hundred years of history of the Istanian Empire. There has never been such an **** at the level of being crushed to the door of the house and needing to accompany a smiling face. "The one who talks to him has a heartbroken face." There is no such thing as an asshole. , Hundreds of thousands of people, more than millions of people within the Istan Empire are involved, and even more than tens of millions of relationships are involved"

"Wife, children. Parents are eagerly waiting to return, but these empire warriors have been rejected by the empire itself!"

The voice who was speaking paused, and raised his head to look in the direction of the imperial palace. "It is said that the Falcon Empire is a barbaric country. Its huge wings cover the entire north-central Obaro, so that all countries dare. I didn’t dare to speak, even if I grabbed the Eastern Province from us with one hand, the whole of Kyoto didn’t say anything. However, facing the problem of the return of more than 100,000 soldiers, I still have this attitude. That’s a shame. I don’t care about those. What do the ministers standing in the imperial palace think? Anyway, as an ordinary Istanian, I feel shameless to see people. Even in the past one hundred or thousand years, this matter has been carved in Istanbul. The shame on the forehead! It will never die!"

"Yes, this is a hundred years of national shame!" The words anger were written on the faces of the people around, and it seemed that even the voices of conversation and discussion had been heard a lot. Several city guards who were in charge of public security walked over, and Without getting close, I was stared at by groups of angry eyes that made my heart hairy,

The captain of the soldiers who led the team got hairy in his heart, "Weird, what happened today? Don't these people know themselves? Well, even if you don't know yourself, you should know the clothes of this city guard." When he was at a loss, the crowd came up,

"Is it true that Kyoto is unwilling to let those soldiers who followed the emperor come back?" Various inquiries made the captain of the city guard change his face. In his identity, where did he know these secrets? But there were too many people around. Seeing him hesitating, the people around were suddenly angry.

"Hit him, that's how people prevent the soldiers from coming back!" In the crowd, I don't know who shouted, and it suddenly became chaotic

In the carriage is the Falcon Empire Admiral Dusterenkai who lowered the window curtains of the carriage. On this road that has been walking back and forth for seventeen days, he can feel a little different every time. In place, his gaze stopped for a moment on a tree canopy that had been replaced with a long golden belt. Dusterenkai curled his mouth unconcernedly and said to the adjutant on the opposite side, "The situation in Kyoto now, these Istanians I'm still thinking about ascending to the emperor's throne. I really don't know what I think. Even if I become an emperor, I have no regional control rights, no troops, no funds, just an empty shell of Istanbul, but It doesn’t represent the Istanian Empire. If it weren’t for your Majesty Falcon’s urge several times, I really don’t want to use this method!

"The commander said that His Royal Highness the Second Prince wanted to become emperor almost crazy. This time he used the Eastern Province incident to accidentally fight for military power from the military. Now he even seems to be negotiating. I'm impatient! "The adjutant took out a document on the opposite side and handed it to Dustellenkai on the opposite side." And the intelligence sent by His Majesty showed that several countries in the south of Europa have a tendency to move around. Since the beginning of the month, there has been a move to reject my Falcon Empire Chamber of Commerce. Your Majesty believes that the Imperial Navy can no longer be entangled in the Istan Empire. The task of covering the independence of the Eastern Province has been achieved, but I cannot just let Istan Kyoto. Calmly integrated, so this order was issued"

"The most indefensible rumors are true, and we did not lie. We just omitted some content. I believe that the second prince will never admit it if he is killed."

Dusterenkai took the document and looked at it and said with a smile, "As long as the hundreds of thousands of Istanbul troops are still on the opposite side of the sea, the Istanbul military will inevitably counterattack the second prince. At that time, it will be enough for the second prince to toss for a winter. At that time, the time will be no longer, the reputation will be greatly damaged, coupled with the separation from the military and the region, not to mention that he will become the new emperor of Istanbul, even if it is still possible. Not being able to stay in Kyoto is a problem!"

"Let the fleet prepare. The supplies are complete. If the situation permits, we will leave early tomorrow morning!"

Dusterenkai raised his eyebrows and closed the document in his hand. This is the intelligence of the Imperial Intelligence Department on the southern area of ​​Obaro. The Feshan people’s move to contact the South has long been known by the Imperial Intelligence Department. The recent anomaly also indicates that the empire may face several lines of war

At this time, it is certain that the side of the Istanbul Empire will be disrupted first.

The imperial fleet will also be ordered back, and the imperial coastal areas will begin to prepare for combat. There is one more thing mentioned in the document. That is, the Strand Navy, which was annexed to the Imperial Navy, will go to the Imperial Naval Base Camp in the south of Congo to receive reorganization and training. His Majesty Falcon specifically requested that this matter be personally responsible for this matter. The reorganization of the Strand Navy, Your Majesty really gave himself a big problem! The Strant who died in his own hands, there are no one hundred thousand, there are five or six thousand, right! Dusterenkai smiled bitterly.

"So fast?" The adjutant’s face was a little surprised and worried, and said, "Leaving so eagerly. With such rumors, how do you look at it. We all run away embarrassed after breaking a secret! For the Imperial Navy’s Reputation..."

"Isn't this better, so that the Istanbul people will truly believe that the Kyoto side secretly refused the return of those soldiers! Otherwise, why did the imperial navy, which has always been brave and invincible, leave so hastily!" Du Strunker laughed and said jokingly, "Fleeing from the wild, but I didn't expect it would be useful to our Imperial Navy for a day!

"Haha" the adjutant smiled on the other side. "I have been in Istanbul for more than ten days, and I face the cold face of Kyoto every day. To be honest, it is really greasy. Istan Kyoto believes that we are not here. They will not leave until the negotiation goal is reached, so they are trying their best to delay us. I don’t know tomorrow. When they know that we just patted our **** and left, they planted a **** pot for them. His Royal Highness won’t be able to take care of the Wang’s face and scold his mother!"

In the afternoon, the rumors had spread throughout Istanbul. The panicked Kyoto Guard ordered the city guards to control the situation with all their strength, but several large-scale conflicts broke out.

"Let’s investigate immediately, who in the world revealed this!" In the Istan Empire Palace, the second prince of Istan Empire angrily smashed the wine glass in his hand on the ground, and the red wine stained him red. The carpet under his feet, the figure walking back and forth, and the extremely blue complexion all made the Kyoto garrison below tremble, and his prestige was greatly damaged because of the fear of the news. More than 100,000 people in the main Istan army are still stranded in Feishan. The news of has long been sealed,

Otherwise, the second prince sits idly by, don’t say that the citizens of Kyoto will overthrow him, even in the entire Istan Empire, the reputation of the second prince will be stinking, so those who know this news can only chat in Kyoto. Talking with more than a dozen people, even a few big men in the military are still silent about this matter. Yes, they know it, but they will definitely not jump out at this time, because once the news is stabbed, the second prince will step down. The military’s life will also fall into the most likely moment of collapse,

The angry imperial people don’t care about the comparison of combat power and national power. They will strongly demand that the military send people to rescue them. Isn’t this killing the military? There are still surplus troops in Istanbul, not to mention that the Falcon Empire and the Feshan Kingdom are already gathering on the Feshan coast. The battle is on the verge, like a wrestling between two giants, a weak child shuttles inside. What is the matter of Istanbul sending troops to the Feshan coast? At that time, I’m afraid that people didn’t pick it up, and the people who went to pick it up were also filled in. That would be a real shame and lost home~IndoMTL.com~ In this case, it’s understandable for the military leaders to pretend to be stupid. Yes, at this moment, I was suddenly stabbed out by someone,

Nima, who did it? Can you make people feel better! Not only is the second prince completely messed up, but the military is also at a loss, but the military feels a little bit relieved that the second prince was the first to be roasted on the fire this time. Okay, look. You still stretched out your hand indiscriminately! It should have been done by someone who saw you not pleasing to your eyes, it was too poisonous! "Convene an emergency meeting immediately!" The leaders of the military department pretended to be shocked with pure faces. At this time, who would dare to take the initiative to take the initiative? Try to drag things to the second prince's side and take action.

"To negotiate tomorrow, agree to the request of the Falcon Empire." The second prince can be considered simply to give a death order to the person in charge of the negotiation. Anyway, it is already the worst.

At this time, I can only do my utmost to restore my reputation. I'm just one step away from the emperor's throne, and I absolutely can't just plant it like this. For this reason, even if I really have to carry heavy debts, I will not hesitate Up,

When he becomes the emperor, it’s not too late to fall back on the bill. Unfortunately, the news that came the next day made him completely desperate.

The imperial fleet has left the port of Istanbul, and its whereabouts are unknown! (To be continued)
