Power and Empire Chapter 3560: Dong Ming (11)

The lobby is spacious and magnificent, the high-grade red carpet of the same color, the reliefs on the walls are lifelike, the top floor is so high that people look up, countless crystal chandeliers hang like stars in the sky, with a bit of chill blowing across the windowsill, and the light from The colorful glass shines through and shines on Jiaan Kailu, the regent of the Kingdom of Steyr, one of the eight countries in central southern Europe

The old man who presides over most of the power of the Steyr Kingdom, his body standing by the window is still trying his best to stand upright, but it has revealed more and more obvious haggardness of powerlessness, with white temples like snow and relaxation. His eyes are sunken, only his eyes are still piercing, and there is something inexplicable in his slightly trembling eyes

In the light and shadow behind him, at this moment, I am afraid that no one will believe that the royal officials of the Central Kingdom, who are nominally rushing to the horse farm of Martin Liya, are gathered here and are inconspicuous. In the remote villa, on both sides of a brown-red long table, there are already sitting the Prince of Benin, Prince of Samoa, Minister of Military Affairs of the Kingdom of Cosmo, Minister of Military Affairs of the Kingdom of Pitcairn, Minister of Commerce of the Kingdom of Cayman, take More than twenty people, including the head of the royal family of King Liqun, members of the royal family of Saint Heru and his entourage, sat in the hall and whispered. The expressions on everyone's faces were different, some were heavy, and some were depressed. The joy of living, some hesitate

"What do you think about the empire requesting us to send troops to Martin Liya?"

The regent of the Kingdom of Steyr, Jiaan Kailu, turned from the window with a serious face, and glanced over the representatives of the other kingdoms in the seat. Although the horse farm is very attractive, it can really attract all the ministries. Sending all members of the royal family is also a bit exaggerated. The Eight Central Countries are not those ambitious rising countries. Therefore, it is not very important to be able to show their faces in this auction. For many years, the status of the Central Eight Kingdoms has been introduced. Between the second-rate and the third-rate, as the central area pulled by the big forces from the east and the west in Southern Europe, the style of the wall and grass is synonymous with the eight countries in the central region.

"What else can you tell? Martin Liya people pressed the imperial army to fight, and they have already hit the holy capital. I think this time the empire is going to be defeated. At this time, people let us send Martin Liya, which is enough to show that the empire has already I’m not able to do what I want," someone said in a disdainful tone, obviously not optimistic that the empire can finally win this North-South war,

As an important part of the coastal areas of Southern Europe, the eight central countries are not very large, most of them are second-rate and third-rate kingdoms. During the first North-South War, the eight central countries were nothing but a wave of flags. Status, as the influence of the empire gradually covers the entire west coast, the nature of the eight central countries has become more obvious, especially under the loan policy of the Imperial Bank, the eight central countries all fell to the empire within six months, but the requirements of the empire Sending troops, different countries have different attitudes,

"That's not necessarily the case. The Imperial Army has entered from the Martin Liyan West Line and has already captured four provinces, and has also severely damaged the Silver Fox..." Someone immediately said unconvinced.

"It’s just breaking the Western Front. Don’t forget, it’s the Martin Liya Prairie, which doesn’t even have a city. Any large corps is dead or alive, even if it’s an imperial army, it’s not. You can only stop at the wolf Xibia? You have the ability, but you let the imperial army continue to advance. If the imperial can really do this, it will not call us secretly to discuss this matter."

An Tunisia, the Minister of Commerce and Trade of the Kingdom of Cayman, gave a heavy sigh. Although he is the Minister of Commerce and Trade, it does not mean that he does not understand war.

Hearing what he said, the expressions on the faces of the important ministers of other countries were also a little dark. In fact, it is not difficult to send troops to Martin Liya. In fact, in southern Oubaro, most of the kingdoms of the unbelievable Martin Liya people They are all disagreeable, and even some countries have considerable hatred with the Martin Liya people, mainly because the Martin Liya people’s traditional brutal looting tradition is too capable of pulling hatred, and treachery, allies stabbed in the back. Style is more commonplace

But the nations hate it, but when it comes to attacking Martin Liya, it's another matter.

"In fact, for more than a hundred years, in order to curb the crazy expansion of Martin Liya people, the surrounding countries have not united and sent troops to Martin Liya, but the effect is clear to everyone. His eyes flashed with a look of memory. He is sixty-seven years old. Compared with the representatives of other kingdoms, he has seen more.

"The main combat power of the Martin Liya people is the light cavalry. They come and go like the wind, and the infantry groups of various countries who can play every time are confused. The unique terrain of the Martin Liya prairie completely blocks the infantry group infantry. Probably, every time Martin Liya sends troops together, the advancement is usually very smooth, because Martin Liya people will not stop it at all. On the contrary, once Martin Liya seizes the opportunity, it will be a fiasco."

"There are three neighboring kingdoms that were overthrown by the Martin Liya because of the defeat of the United Army. The most recent alliance took place 25 years ago. The Martin Liya and the Eastern Power Spean The Kingdom of Race competed for the region of Styron. In the case of unstoppable attack, the Martin Liya gathered all the surrounding Spencers to the city of Styron, and then killed them for a full day in front of the Spencer defenders. One night, more than 200,000 Spencer civilians were massacred. King Spencer, in his anger, did not hesitate to sell the royal property and gathered tens of millions of military expenses to unite the Harvey Kingdom, the Kingdom of Ikar, the Kingdom of Faze and more than ten The country sent a total of 500,000 troops to retaliate against Martin Liya. The battle was extremely smooth from the beginning. In just two months, it captured six provinces on the eastern line of Martin Liya and advanced more than 800 miles. Martin Liya's territory was born by a quarter

However, just when all countries believed that the Martin Liya would choose to negotiate, the Martin Liya cavalry launched a counterattack like scattered lines and chaotic beads. The coalition forces at every step can only watch. Thousands of Martin Liya light cavalry went around from his side, and then suddenly appeared behind the army

The logistics line of the coalition forces suffered a devastating blow. The head of the commander of the reinforcements was cut off by the Martin Liya people, more than 800 miles away from the border, and the periphery was besieged by the Martin Liya light cavalry. , Eating and drinking were almost cut off, and even reached the grassroots level. When there were still three hundred miles from the border, the coalition finally could not go on.

The armies of various countries rushed to flee. The hundreds of thousands of troops that came like a rainbow fell apart in the blink of an eye. Martin Liya light cavalry swarmed and killed them along the way, causing heavy casualties. In the end, even King Spielberg was killed. They were all captured by the Martin Liya people in one fell swoop. The Martin Liya people slayed the royal family of Szabin to extinction, and slaughtered the capital for ten consecutive days, turning a king with a population of more than 400,000 into a ghost domain. , The Kingdom of Spencer, which was once one of the great powers of southern Europe and Baro, perished, and more than four million Spencers were used as the most inferior slaves. The sign of the previous vehicle is vividly remembered. Although the eight countries of Central China are not strong, But they are all time-honored royal families that have been inherited for more than a hundred years. Everyone should be very clear that although the empire is strong, it has only risen in the past few years. The hegemony war with the Martin Liya people will cause the consequences of being accidentally involved. What is it

Although the empire has torn apart Martin Liya’s defensive line on the Western Front and broke into the border for more than three hundred miles, it is still a far cry from the war 25 years ago. That war, the coalition forces of all nations It was a disastrous defeat, and the empire was quite unfavorable from the beginning, and its strength was even more stretched. The eastern front had to face the coalition forces of the southern countries of the 200,000 Erot empire, and the central part faced off against the main force of the 500,000 Martin Road runner-up. The western front seems to be a sign of the whole battle, but winter is coming, and the danger of being deep in the Martin Liya prairie can be imagined. It is more correct to say that victory is in hand, not to say that you are standing on the edge of the blade. ! "

"Yes, the eight central countries can stand for more than a hundred years in the turmoil, isn't it because the eight countries do not participate in the ranks of the southern hegemony?"

"Master Jiaankailu is worthy of being the backbone of the Kingdom of Steyr. In terms of judgment in this regard, I am afraid that no one can compare the entire Southern Oubaro."

"Yes, no matter who the empire sends this time, we absolutely cannot send troops, otherwise once Martin Liya wins, we will be miserable!"

Under the influence of Jiaankailu, the representatives of the other seven countries also nodded. The Empire’s ability to easily tear off the Martin Force’s line does not necessarily mean that the empire has a stable victory. It may be defeated. The precursor, because the main battlefield is the sect nation, no matter how well the western front is fought, if the battlefield of the sect nation collapses, everything is in vain, and the 500,000 Martin force is already overwhelming the city on the front line of the sect nation. It may break through the defenses of the holy capital. At this time, the empire asked the eight central countries to send troops, which means that the empire is beginning to feel powerless, or it has no confidence in the final victory of the North-South war.

This is extremely important information

The empire can't hold it anymore!

We must know that since the rise of the empire, the city has slaughtered the country and defeated several great empires to unify the entire Nordic Barrow. Especially in the First North-South War, the empire counterattacked the 700,000 army in the south with 300,000 troops and took it in one fell swoop. Under the entire territory of the Istan Empire, shock the entire Obaro continent. In the eyes of the outside world, the empire is an invincible existence

For more than two full years, the entire Southern Oubaro was trembling under the sword of the empire. The situation in the south was also turned upside down. The Fazer family fell, the Emperor Erot died in battle, the old and new pope battles of the state of the sect. There is no empire behind. In just two years, the coastline of the Inner Sea of ​​Southern Europe has been controlled by the empire

In other words, the door to South Oubaro has been completely opened.

So although Southern Oubaro didn’t like the Martin Liya people, it was after the outbreak of the Second North-South War that even the Martin Liya people first destroyed the Kalisu, and then severely damaged the Kingdom of Harvey. In order to benefit, the countries are still supporting Martin Liya overtly and secretly. The empire blocked Martin Liya’s arms trade, and the countries secretly sold Martin Liya weapons. The empire blocked commerce and trade. Using food for the slaves of the Martin Liya people. If it were not the case, how could Martin Liya’s 500,000 army stand on the front line of the Order for such a long time,

It’s really because the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, and the nations are also terrified. The empire’s forces are fierce. From military to commerce, a handful of visible and invisible swords pierced the entire defense of South Europa. Almost without blood, the entire northern coast of South Oubaro has been taken down.

Imperial forces will never stop invading south,

At this moment, the entire south is hoping that a new powerful force can jump out to stop the empire from going south. Even the eight countries in the central part of the wall do not want the empire to win this North-South war, because the stronger the empire, The stronger the imperial bank’s power, the greater the pressure on the eight central countries to obtain loans from the imperial bank. Once the imperial power gains more territory in southern Europe and the center of gravity goes south, the original status of the eight central countries will be in jeopardy. Some of the privileges of the empire will also be affected. The so-called popular desire is that too many people do not want the empire to win, even some forces in the empire camp.

"If only Lighter from the Governor's Mansion on the West Coast came forward, we would not be afraid. In case Salton from the Second Army of the Empire South, I hope everyone can unite and let each other know that the eight central countries are a whole." Jia Ankailu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice that they received an invitation from the Empire this time. Although they came to the horse pasture in the name, they actually came to the west coast to secretly discuss the issue of joint troops. The Empire just won a big victory on the western front. In addition, the terrifying record of destroying the nobles of Northland in fifteen days, the eight central countries dare not come

"But if it angers the empire, what should the empire declare war on us?" someone said hesitantly

"We don’t need to reject the empire directly. We just need to find an excuse to delay. Winter is coming. I believe everyone will be stupid. As long as the war is dragged to the end, as long as the eight central countries have the same caliber, the empire should not choose to be the most critical in the North-South war Turning our faces away from time to time, I believe that it is not only the empire that sees the weight of the eight central countries on the scale of the Civil War."

Jia Ankailu’s mouth showed a smug smile. Martin Liya had secretly sent someone to find him, saying that as long as he could keep the eight central countries neutral in this war, he would continue to support his family regency, although it seems that Nothing has changed since then

However, Jia Ankailu is heartbroken. He is old, but the new king is fourteen years old. It has been eleven years from the three-year-old regent to the present. As the new king grows up~IndoMTL.com~ the contradiction is also getting worse. Coming more and more densely, Jiaan Kailu knows very well that once the new king comes to the throne, the first person who will not forgive is himself. Even he believes that this time Martin Liya is very likely to win!

There was a sound of footsteps at the entrance of the hall, and people from the empire came.

The important ministers of various countries immediately held their breaths and looked terrified. The air in the hall seemed to drop a few degrees. They said that they were not afraid, but in fact, their hearts were still hairy. If it was Lighter, it would be okay to say that they were afraid of killing people. In order to stabilize the situation on the west coast, Salton, who was born in Nord, did not kill many people. It was just that the other party killed himself in anger,

God, it must be Lighter. Someone even made a deep prayer.

"Everyone, don't mess with yourself" Jia Ankailu yelled in a low voice, the words just fell.

"Pop" the door of the hall was opened by the attendant from the outside, and a black-haired young man in a black dress walked in calmly. Jia Ankailu's eyes suddenly showed a look of astonishment. The old man who just said not to be self-confident. Kneeling on the ground almost like a nervous reflex, some of the important ministers of other countries have not reacted yet, but some are already pale with scared faces, kneel down again
