Power and Empire Chapter 3026: Dream Painting Jiangshan (21)
Walking into the promenade leading to the main hall of Sirius Fort, Fatty Mingrui's eyes fell on the graceful female knight in front,
"The teacher has finally thought of Sirius City. If I hadn't held the seven hundred prisoners of the Long Family in my hands, I'm afraid the teacher would wait for the spring to bloom before thinking of Sirius City!" There was a clear voice with a bit of complaining. Looking at the broad figure walking into the corridor, the female knight stepped on slowly, her eyes flashed with imperceptible excitement,
The imperial generals who followed the Fatty looked at each other, and stopped very consciously. The female knight in front was naturally your majesty’s apprentice, Berrant Bonnie, commander of the Imperial Wilderness Legion. The special relationship between the two is no secret in the upper empire
"You guys go down and rest first"
The fat man knew the generals’ embarrassment, but he didn’t expect Burrant Bonnie to be so enthusiastic. He was taken aback and shook his hand to the generals behind him unconsciously. The fat man knew Burrant Bonnie’s character. It is so unconcealed that it reveals ambiguity. This is not only acting like a baby, but also implying that there is something to talk about that cannot be made public. Thinking that Burrant Bonnie has been obsessed with the Northwest Territories, the fat man's heart is already clear that Burant Bonnie wants. What are you going to do,
"Yes, Your Majesty." The generals of the Guards, like being amnesty, bowed their feet neatly together, and turned to leave. Even if they were bold enough, they knew that this moment was not when they should appear, the generals. After leaving, even the guards were withdrawn, leaving only the female knight Berrant Bonnie and Fatty in the corridor
"Go ahead, is there anything you can't say publicly?" The fat man walked over.
"In fact, it's nothing, I just want to ask the teacher, what exactly does the Empire have for the Northwest?" Burrant Bonnie's celadon-like hoarse and seductive voice showed a mature charm and was straightforward. The hand lightly traversed the fat man’s arm. "The Long Family captured the entire northwestern region and rescued millions of Central and Byanians. I heard that Long Po recruited a large number of people who hated the prairie people from these rescued Central and Bianians. Strong combat power, the formation of a blood army of as many as 100,000 of the Long Family, and the Long Family is still constantly mobilizing follow-up troops from the southwest, now the Long Family’s strength in the northwest has exceeded 300,000. By comparison, the current army of our empire’s Wilderness Legion may be less than one-third of the Dragon’s family. Once the war really breaks out, the consequences will be disastrous!"
"Are you afraid that the Long Family will begin to attack the wilderness after occupying the northwest?"
The fat man said disapprovingly, "No, although the Long Family occupies the northwest and has gained a large number of troops from China and Biya, the battle power that the Long Family can support at present has reached the peak of one hundred thousand. It was only barely enough to use all the hoarding in the past few years. Now even if you get a huge population, without material and food, and without enough weapons, it is difficult to quickly transform these into combat power. The Long Family wants to transform It will take at least half a year for the Northwest to truly become its own power."
"For half a year, it is not long or short. According to the current degree of support of the Long Family in the northwest, I am afraid that it will be able to pull up an army of hundreds of thousands at any time." Burrant Bonnie looked solemn. , The entire slender body leaned directly on the fat man, and said coquettishly, “As the commander of the Imperial Wilderness Army, Bonnie is the front line of the empire facing the northwest of Central and Bahia. Since the Long’s family occupied the northwest, the originally stable border has been born. After five small-scale conflicts, although the losses were not large, as the Long Family’s military strength in the northwest increases, the conflicts that squeeze the border will inevitably become more frequent. At that time, how should Bonnie deal with the Long Family’s Relationship, what should I do once the Long Family starts war? Does the teacher have the heart to watch the imperial soldiers face the fierce attack of 300,000 Long Family Army under the condition of insufficient allocation?
"Please also ask the teacher to approve the applied materials soon!" Burrant Bonnie paused and sighed.
"Applying for the appropriation of materials? You really have the face to say!" The fat man glanced at the corner of his mouth. A few days ago, according to the usual practice, the newly formed army had once submitted an application for the appropriation of combat weapons and materials to the Ministry of Imperial Affairs. Power, the Wilderness Corps in Berlant State naturally has such power. I received the application report written by Berlant Bonnie, and after just a glance, the above content almost made the reviewing military officer vomit blood. This is already It’s not that the lion has opened his mouth, but the fantasy. The female knight dare to make a price.
Five hundred imperial Thors, 1,000 imperial heavy ballistas, imperial crossbows, armor, and the number of war horses are required by the size of an army of 300,000.
"What is this going to do, to start a war of annihilation?" This kind of lion's open-mouthed application form has completely deceived the military affairs department's reviewing officers. What makes the military affairs department officials the most uneasy is that they don't know this at all. Is Berland Bonnie blackmailing the Military Affairs Department, or is this actually what your Majesty meant. After all, Berland Bonnie’s identity is too special. The emperor’s lover and student, just such an identity, is enough for the military department to review officers I didn't dare to offend, I thought that as long as it was not too excessive, the materials and weapons applied for would be paid one by one, but in the face of this list of sky-high prices, the Ministry of Military Affairs had to submit it to the Emperor for ruling.
"This woman is crazy?"
Seeing the list sent by the Ministry of Military Affairs, the word came out of Fatty’s mind. The female knight was also the commander of the northern frontier of the empire. How could she submit such a request for an Oolong dragon, but thought of the previous paragraph. The close relationship between Berante Bonnie and Princess Mingyue in time, read the application list that was ready to be thrown into the trash basket again, hesitated for a moment, and shouted at the door, "Come on, look for Li Yuehua." The fat man found it directly. Li Yuehua, and asked about the records of the Ministry of Intelligence about the situation of several meetings with Princess Mingyue of Zhongbia before getting the list submitted by Berrant Bonnie, her face looked a little dignified
"Your Majesty, my subordinates believe that this list is fake." Li Yuehua's eyes flashed on her lord's face, feeling a dangerous aura, she said quickly with a pale face
"Fake? You know it at all!" The fat man suddenly got up from his seat and took a deep breath. "There is no doubt that this list can be passed. First, I will put forward an impossible one. A big request. The real request was made after being rejected. Even if it was a little unacceptable, it was much more reasonable compared to the previous list of sky-high prices. The possibility of passing would be greatly increased. In addition, Berrant Bonnie The special status is placed there. In order not to be guilty and to apologize, the last material and weapons given by the Ministry of Military Affairs should be 30% more than what they might have received."
"I knew it was impossible to hide this kind of trick from your Majesty, but Bonnie Army Commander still wanted to try it." Li Yuehua's pale face smiled bitterly." But His Highness Mingyue thinks that even if it fails, at least Your Majesty will A certain amount of compensation will be given, definitely more than ordinary applications!"
It's another bright moon! The blatant blackmail came to my head! The fat man can only laugh and cry. This kind of approach that contains Eastern wisdom and strategy would not have been thought of by Brant Bonnie. The top ten is the head of the Princess Mingyue from the royal family of China.
These two women really have a very high degree of fit for embarrassment. The fat man regrets bringing Princess Mingyue and Berrant Bonnie together. These two women, one bold and the other with extraordinary decisive power, will bring the empire together. The eastern border of China was handed over to these two women. If you are not worried about it, it is a lie.
"In fact, the list is not too much. If the teacher feels embarrassed, half of it will do!"
Berland Bonnie didn’t know that Li Yuehua had betrayed them, and she was still pretending to be aggrieved. She drew circles on the fat man’s chest with her white fingers. She knew that her teacher liked her behavior the most. The hand that swings the sword all the year round, wearing white gloves is more slender and smart
"I'm here this time to tell you that the right to apply for materials from the Wilderness Legion will be cancelled directly!" The fat man coughed dryly, "Don't think I don't know. This is a conspiracy of you and Princess Mingyue to blackmail the Emperor, this Is the result?"
"Cancel, no, sir, you can't be so unfeeling?" Burrant Bonnie screamed, suddenly panicked
"This case is very bad and must be severely punished, otherwise it will be spread. How can the army of the empire come with military regulations, so as a punishment, there is no room for change." The fat man said with a cold face, letting Brantebon How did Ni pretend to be pitiful and press the application form heavily on the table
"Teacher, give me something, even if it’s just a corps."
Berrand Bonnie was stupid. Looking at the fat man's determined face, she was completely flustered. She didn't expect the result to be so miserable. Even if she refused to give more, she would give part of it anyway. , The Long family is fighting in the northwest. As long as the strength of the northwest is digested, it will be a huge pressure on the entire eastern front of the empire. Although the total strength of the Imperial Wilderness Corps is close to 100,000, in fact, it is actually equipped with only 50,000 to 60,000 as the first-line combat troops People, the remaining troops are still equipped for the second or even third line of the Empire, and what they have to face may be the Dragon Family Corps with a total force of over 300,000 in half a year.
"I can't change it. Since it is my own mistake, I will bear it myself!" The fat man stood up from his seat with a grim expression and prepared to leave
"Teacher, please take a look at Bonnie's life and death for the empire over the years, and see the 100,000 soldiers of the Imperial Wilderness Legion fighting for the empire. Please withdraw the decision." Burrant Bonnie had tears in her eyes. Kneeling on the ground, knowing that something was wrong this time, why did I forget my teacher? What I hate most is being pet and coquettish. I think the beauty of Dongting Queen Rui Tang Tingna was not the same because of her waywardness. Fatty cleaned up a few times, and now he's honestly afraid to mess up again,
"The decision has been sent to the Ministry of Military Affairs and cannot be changed!"
The fat man looked at Burrant Bonnie’s crying face, and couldn’t help but feel softer. "Blackmail the Military Ministry by virtue of his identity. If this kind of thing is really blindly favored, then the result is very likely to attract the empire. The systemic collapse of the entire army, if there is a precedent, then the big princesses and the five big military leaders can do it at will! So I can’t change it, but because you are not doing it for your own selfishness after all, I will show you a way"
"What way?" Burrant Bonnie was shocked and quickly wiped the tears from her cheeks
"The method I gave you, other people may not be able to do it well, but I believe you can, because you have done it!" The fat man lowered his face with a deep look. "When he was the commander of the frontier army in the northern part of the empire, , You’ve tasted the sweetness in the trade of materials between the control 6 and the grassland, and now you are located in the imperial wilderness on the golden business road, why don’t you want to set up too many trade fairs, although the wilderness area is compared with the prosperous empire, But only the number of caravans that walk around here every day, I'm afraid it's not inferior to the southwestern part of the empire"
"Your Majesty is talking about smuggling?" Burrant Bonnie exclaimed, the boss with a pair of pure blue eyes almost bit her tongue, my God, the teacher, this is a brazen encouragement to open a smuggling set. City? Didn’t the Empire fight smuggling particularly hard? What did the frontier army do? Apart from resisting the invasion, it was just catching smuggling! Brandt Bonnie was wondering whether the man standing in front of him was really his teacher, the emperor of the dignified Falcon Empire? It’s not someone pretending to be. If it’s not for the virtues of a fat man who looks like a fat man from left to right, Berrante Bonnie will call the guard.
"Stupid, the wilderness sideline is about two hundred miles long, and it is the crossroads of the three lines between Central and Biyah, the Congo and Fei area and the mountain area. There are so many caravans, smuggling, even if it is blocked, it is impossible to stop it. Live!” The fat man couldn’t help shouting humbly and humorously. “What's the difference between this and the grasslands in the northern part of the empire? Instead of letting smuggling rampant, it’s better to use a smuggling bazaar to regulate them together. This kind of thing, you didn’t like that at the beginning. What are you doing!"
"At the beginning, it was a last resort. The military budget was insufficient. The frontier army's equipment has not been replaced for several years. If there is no way to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, the frontier army's combat power may not even be able to maintain half of it." Ni also had a shy face, and led the entire frontier army to smuggle. After all, it was a stain in her military career.
"Do you know why I tolerated you smuggling the bazaar on the northern border?
The fat man looked at her, his voice paused, and his nose snorted heavily. "That's because at that time, although the eastern and western courts were settled, millions of people on the prairie were trapped in a situation of lack of supplies because of the war. The signs of the rebellion are becoming more and more obvious. If the smuggling ~IndoMTL.com~ does not give them a way to survive, the original Dongting rebellion may be a battle of allure, and human blood will invade the entire grassland. As long as there is a chance to live, who will be fed and fight against the empire? The northwest now is not the original northern grassland."
"The Yelu family took away all the supplies, and the grassland people didn’t eat it themselves. Besides, the Zhongbian people, don’t look at the Long family occupying the northwest. The seemingly splendid recruitment of troops and expansion of strength, why didn’t you see it? This is the last resort of the Long Family. Millions of people in Central and Biyadh, in such a severe cold, have no food or clothing, no source of food, and no hope of survival, even if it is to liberate their Long Family. It is impossible to suppress the various rages that have exploded inside. The young men among them are recruited to fill the army. In addition to reducing the danger that these young men may become a rebellion, it is the Long family that gives those who have a relationship with them the hope of life. The true meaning of recruiting soldiers in a large scale! As the chief of the empire’s eastern front, your eyes should not be so short-sighted!"
"So, I think the Long Family's recruitment this time is a bit weird. It seems that as long as the young and strong are accepted, even some old and weak are accepted!" Hearing the fat man's words, Berlante Bonnie showed a pretty face. A touch of enlightenment, yes, hundreds of thousands of prairie people in the northwest have rushed to the imperial wilderness to find food, and the millions of Central and Biyarians who stayed in the northwest will be even more miserable. The Long family captured Xijinggu in one breath. He was praised by countless people in China and Biya for the status of recovery. The plight of food-free relief was probably only known to the Long family. It is no wonder that the special envoy of the Long family who came to negotiate insisted on Sirius. The city belongs to the Southwest Dragon's family. In fact, I don't want to put those seven hundred prisoners back! Now I am afraid that the intestines that the Long family regrets are all green, and they are full of food. What is the Northwest!
