Power and Empire Chapter 3668: The Return of the King (5)

When the moonlight is particularly bright at night, the sky is dotted with stars, but there are no clouds. The cold moonlight spreads over the entire area of ​​Taicheng City without any restriction, illuminating the surrounding wilderness. There was a faint brilliance. If it is in other places, such bright moonlight will give countless poets a strong inspiration, and it will also make people bathed in the moonlight feel joy and tranquility. Unfortunately, in Shataicheng today, countless towering wooden stakes, The corpse floating in the wind, only the legendary horror and weirdness.

"My lord, after all, the clan hasn’t issued an order to abolish Sam Tamara. She is still the Young Master in the name of our clan. We just keep her out of Shatai City. If we pass it back to the clan, I’m afraid it’s inevitable. To arouse the irritation of the patriarch, it’s better to go to see you," Archipatus’ adjutant Skfa asked hesitantly,

"This woman has been canceled in the name of His Royal Highness in the past few days. There is no need to be polite to her. I'm sure that the strategy of killing me Sha Taicheng was caught off guard. It was definitely Si Greene's idea. I can see that he is a person who hides a knife in a smile. Others don’t know about the blood **** sacrifice. How could he not know? If I go to see that woman, I will definitely be asked about the blood **** sacrifice. In front of the vassal of the high lord, how should I explain"

Archipatos' voice paused, and he smiled coldly. "It was clear that I was going to use me to stand up. If you want to help that woman, it is best to fight in the battle of your Royal Highness. I really thought I was a fool. , I will let her use it at will. If this woman is in the hands of the Azure Chamber of Commerce, I am still a little afraid. Now that the Azure Chamber of Commerce has betrayed from this woman, what terrible thing we have, is the name of a young majesty? Laugh out big teeth!"

Achipatus, like everyone else, thinks that Sam Tamara is dead in the holy, but he didn’t expect Sam Tamara not only to return unscathed, but also to look for the first one. Going to his sandy city, he had a slightly hoarse voice, and under the light of the fire at the top of the city, he gave people a cold feeling, while Archipatus himself was a burly bald man, two meters tall and standing. It's like an iron tower here. An earthworm-like scar on the left cheek spreads from the blank eye socket of the left eye to the ear, making him look hideous, his other right eye. , His pupils are a strange grayish white. At this moment, through the unique curved and irregular walls of Shatai City, he is looking at the large torch camp below the city. The flags of the lords and vassals of the family are floating, and the faces are exposed. An unabashed look of contempt

Does Sam Tamara think this is where the Sam’s base camp is? You can call a high lord and go, what a joke, this is Shatai City, and he is the master. Sure enough, it is a big joke to let a woman become the young lord of the Sam tribe. A woman should give birth to a child. How can we participate in these major events!

The reason why these lords and vassals are all gathered here is to make it clear that they want to take advantage of this outdated young Majesty Sam, to force themselves to let out the fat of Shataicheng. It’s a idiot, really. Don’t you think I don’t know what they’re thinking about? Although Shatai City is not too big, it controls the entire northern border of the Harvey Kingdom, and it controls the water sources nearby, and all the caravans passing by from nearby areas. People and personnel must come to Shatai City to get drinking water. For this alone, the tax that Shatai City can collect is enough to make many lords in nearby areas jealous

Shatai City, as the core of the barrier used by the Harvey against the cult states in the north, has the highest defensive power in the entire Southern Obaro. The irregular wall can be used to attack the city from multiple directions. The enemy’s different kills, and the condescending terrain is conducive to the power of the city’s heavy defensive weapons

For example, the catapult in the city can have a range of one-third longer than when it is launched on flat ground. At the beginning, Martin’s 50,000 army faced this strong wall and only dared to adopt siege tactics. It’s not that it’s been a strong attack, but the losses are extremely heavy. However, the reason why Shataicheng has become a strategic fortress is not because of its important position or its strength, but because it is more than 20 miles nearby. The only water source in the area, the mound in Shatai City has multiple natural springs, and the spring water is clear and mellow. It is full of various minerals, which is very beneficial to the human body. Long-term drinking can prolong life. Among them, Sha Taiquan is the most famous

At the beginning, the Harvey spent a lot of manpower and material resources to build the fortress here because it controlled the water source

If the ambitious army of the religious regiment in the north moves south and all the northern borders are lost, the role of Shataicheng as a barrier will be revealed. People can skip meals for one or two days, but there is no way to avoid drinking water for one or two days, especially It is the Knights Templar that the cult state fears the entire Southern European Baro, and it is equipped with heavy armor and horses. In the past, the combat marches had to follow the water flow road in order to be able to supply at any time. The Harvey and the cult state It was once a comrade-in-arms who had cooperated with each other for many years. How could it not prevent the most sharp sword of the sect nation, and Martin Liya's fifty thousand army was able to maintain the strategy of encircling Shatai City because of Martin Liya fifty thousand. Behind the army, there were tens of thousands of Harvey slaves carrying people and horses to drink water from a lake 30 miles away. As a result, it is said that there were three to four thousand Harvey people who died. It is said that the surrounding land turned red. Stained red by the blood of these slaves.

"As expected, Archipatus won't come!"

"Archipatus even dared to despise the young lord of his clan. It is already a violation of the rule of the lord, everyone should fight him together"

"Master Kushir is too right, or let you go to crusade against Shatai City, we will wave the flag for you in the back"

Until midnight, the gates of Shataicheng were still closed, and the envoys sent were also beaten and thrown out. The gray-headed faces were all embarrassed, and the lords and vassals of all parties had nothing but stares. Shouting, but it's just talking about it. It is not easy to really take down this fortified wall. The 50,000 army, which was like a rainbow at the beginning, had not been defeated and had to adopt the most time-consuming tactics of the trapped city, which took a lot of time. It took more than a month to take the city of Shatai, and the total attack of the troops brought by the vassals and lords in front of them was seven or eight thousand people, and there was no possibility of any siege equipment. Such forces wanted to take Shatai. I’m afraid I can’t even touch a piece of skin

Sam Tamara also knows that these vassal lords are yelling here, just to show them to themselves, really want them to attack Shatai City, fearing that they will not be moved by a single soldier, wave the flag and shout. Yes, it’s definitely not true. I sigh in my heart that I’m afraid that I’m going to be disadvantaged. The first battle of returning home is a loss.

"Masters don’t have to be so troublesome. I think you should know that His Royal Highness is still the owner of the Azure Chamber of Commerce. This time His Royal Highness returned from the Empire. By the way, he urged the Azure Chamber of Commerce to purchase a batch of gadgets from the Empire, which should be delivered around tonight. Here, you only need to be on the sidelines at that time! "Siglin stood up and laughed calmly in front of everyone,

"Azurite Chamber of Commerce?"

"But how did I hear that the Azur Blue Chamber of Commerce has been evacuated from the Empire"

"Who said no? It is said that if it hadn’t been for the president of the Azure Chamber of Commerce, he would risk his death and leave a letter to Sam Tamara. I am afraid that Sam Tamara would not know that the Azure Chamber of Commerce had been betrayed collectively. , Now there is another Azure Chamber of Commerce here?" The faces of these lord vassals changed slightly, their eyes looked at each other weirdly, and they couldn't help whispering.

"The Azure Chamber of Commerce withdrew to the country are only some unsteady peripheral personnel. The true core of the Azure Chamber of Commerce has always been in the hands of His Royal Highness, but this kind of matter is extremely confidential, how can the outside world know"

Siglin looked around and smiled deliberately, and what he said made Sam Tamara even more dazed. Is there really any core member? Impossible, the Azure Chamber of Commerce has definitely withdrawn all of it to the country, not even a copper plate is left for itself, where is the difference between the periphery and the core!

"His Majesty, is this true? The Azure Chamber of Commerce is still in the hands of His Majesty?" Several vassal lords walked over and asked solemnly in a low voice.

"Of course, otherwise you think your lord would let you come here. I am not afraid to give you all the details. Anyway, everyone will be a family. Your lord is also one of the core personnel of the Azure Chamber of Commerce. Whether I’m telling lies or not, I will know when the lord arrives, but before that, we have one more thing to do.” Sam Tamara hasn’t spoken yet, Sieglin has already taken a step forward, his eyes cold. He glanced at the lord and vassal, pretending to be a mysterious smile. Several vassal lords had been revealed by Siegeline, and Lei’s outside and inside were tender, and now he was even more confused and dreaming. What else is going on? ? Isn’t it really going to attack this Shataicheng? This kind of joke can't be made indiscriminately!

"There is one more thing that Master Sigle said?" A vassal asked in a low voice subconsciously, but soon regretted it

"Of course, I captured Shatai City before the early morning." Sieglin glanced at Shatai City coldly, seeming to have all the faces of everyone in his eyes, and said categorically, the surrounding lord and vassals were all The body shook, the lord who inquired wanted to kill him with one head, and the eyes of other lords looked at him with resentment

The Harvey Kingdom is close to the Kazakh Religious State to the north. The rebellion of the Holy Capital of the Religious State, and the outbreak of the Azure Chamber of Commerce incident is naturally the first to hear, and they themselves are also responsible for monitoring the religious regime. The details of the Azure Chamber of Commerce incident that caused the rebellion in the sacred capital are more detailed than those sent back to the country, but looking at the confident look of Sieglin, it is not like talking nonsense, and the vassal lords can't help themselves. The idea came up. You must know that although they came to protect Sam Tamara by issuing orders from their respective lord, they still do not agree with the fact that their lord and Sam Tamara are allied. After all, it is a The mad young majesty, even the lords of the Sam tribe don’t want to see him, and his lord holds a heavy army, and his status is soaring among the lords of Martin Liya. There is no need to be contaminated with the brilliance of the mad young majesty, so The vassal lords still have mostly perfunctory elements in their hearts.

But if, as Sieglin said, only the peripheral personnel of the Azure Chamber of Commerce are withdrawn, and the real core is still in the hands of the young majesty, that’s another matter, the golden swallowing beast of the Azure Chamber of Commerce, these two years It is obvious to everyone how to push the Sam from the verge of declining into a rivalry with the other two tribes. Therefore, whether his lord is in alliance with an outdated young highness, or is in alliance with the big gold master of the Azure Chamber of Commerce. , It is completely two concepts!

"Of course, if you guys are willing to help, I will also praise you for your bravery." Siglin glanced over the vassal lords, and his look at this moment was more like handing olive branches to these vassal lords.

"Of course, this is what I should do."

The faces of the vassal lords all changed. If they were half-believing what Sigrilin had said before, now they have no doubt at all. They captured Shatai City in one night and were able to say such hard words and want to cheat. Can't do it! They nodded and hurriedly returned to their own troops to prepare to go. This was an opportunity to show up in front of their lord. Anyway, it was just a help. If you fail, there will be no big loss. If you really win Shataicheng, this will be a big deal. They are most excited by the Azure Chamber of Commerce. Their lord is also the core staff of the Azure Chamber of Commerce. This is a great event. Their lord has soldiers, and the Azure Chamber of Commerce has money. In the current Martin Liya country , That is the largest group. If the position of Samata Mara’s Young Royal Highness is stabilized, after half a year, the Sam clan becomes the royal family, and Samata Mara is the crown prince. That is the power of war, money, and government. I have it in my own hands. Looking at Martin Liya’s tribal governance for decades, there has never been such a highly concentrated moment.

"Siglin, what the **** is going on?"

Sam Tamara only found a chance to speak at this time, she was anxious to cry with her pretty face, her fingers were even more clenched, and there was a tingling sensation in her palms. Everyone knows the betrayal of the Azure Chamber of Commerce. Now I am a person, not to mention that I still use the Azure Chamber of Commerce to buy gadgets in the Sanctuary. Siegelin mentioned the Azure Chamber of Commerce at this time, fearing that he wanted to support himself, but he was afraid that it would be counterproductive. At that time, the Azure Chamber of Commerce I don’t even have a personal image, and nothing is shipped. I’m afraid that it’s hard to save the face that I have built up. These vassals and lords will be scattered in a hurry

Siglin withdrew his gaze from the direction of Shataicheng, turned to look at Sam Tamara, his eyes were slightly narrowed, and the cold light flickered. "His Royal Highness believes that the emperor will let us play freely in Martin Liya. What are the possibilities?” Sam Tamara’s beautiful face was stunned, and she immediately reacted. The conversation with the Emperor could not help but appear in her mind. It seemed to be an understatement, but it blocked all her possibilities. How could this kind of people support themselves to hold power in Martin Liya? Shaking his head and smiling bitterly, "It shouldn't be. The Emperor must have other ways. If he violates the agreement, he will definitely die miserably."

Siglin looked at Sam Tamara’s face with a look of approval." His Majesty seems to have grown up. "Siglin glanced around before condensingly said." In fact, I was telling the truth. , The core of the Azure Chamber of Commerce is in the hands of His Royal Highness. It’s just that I have revealed something for His Royal Highness, so I didn’t tell His Royal Highness."

"The Emperor of the Empire has allowed the Commercial Alliance to restore the S-level Chamber of Commerce brand of the Azure Chamber of Commerce, but the owner of the new Azure Chamber of Commerce has changed from one to two, that is, His Royal Highness and the Emperor. Of course, this is a secret. The outside world does not know, and the core members of the Chamber of Commerce, in addition to the personnel dispatched by the emperor when the time comes to serve as the new president, the 37 lords on the secret agreement will also become core members of the Chamber of Commerce." Siegelin took a deep breath. , Said with a wry smile, "In other words, if we violate the agreement with the Emperor in the future, or harm the interests of the Azure Chamber of Commerce, without the Emperor’s hands, the other 37 lords will destroy us, and 37 The lords are now in the same boat with us, so even for their own interests, they will fully support us and support the New Azure Chamber of Commerce, so even if we want to prevent the Imperial Chamber of Commerce from growing in Martin Liya, we will not be able to do it "

"I have to say, the emperor’s approach, no matter which one of us can refuse." Siegelin sighed and said, "From now on, the entire Kingdom of Martin Liya is in essence, in fact This is the Bilan Chamber of Commerce. This kind of boldness, this kind of courage and means, I would never dare to imagine it."

"It can still be like this..." Sam Tamara was messed up in the wind. She believed that she was a good planner, but only now did she find out that the two of Sieglin and the Emperor In front of a fox, I don’t know if I have been sold, but tonight, will someone deliver something?

In the second half of the night, under the shining half-string cold moon, Sieglin quietly left the camp. Half an hour later, dozens of horse-drawn carriages with the Blue Chamber of Commerce arrived at the camp. Along with the horse-drawn carriages, there was another with a cold expression. The middle-aged man stopped his eyes on the beautiful face of Sam Tamara in front of him. The middle-aged nobleman saluted Sam Tamara and said

"My name is Si Duhan, and I will be the nominal president of the Azur Chamber of Commerce. This time I was ordered to come, I basically know nothing about Martin Liya's domestic situation, but I believe that with the guidance of the young majesty who created the Azur Chamber of Commerce, I should still be able to. Do something"

"Your Excellency is Duhan!"

Others didn’t react to this name, but Sam Tamara trembled slightly.

She has been in the Empire Chamber of Commerce circle. Although it has only been two years, she has also studied the fortunes of the Empire’s business. How could she not know that the name of the first president of the Empire Chamber of Commerce was Stuhan? In the era of the awakening of the imperial business talents, the imperial emperor was overcome with obstacles, opened up business routes, established a golden route, and established the legendary creator of the basic network of the behemoth of the future, the imperial business alliance, although it is said later It was because something entered the ranks of the imperial administrator, but it was still a legend among the imperial merchants, second only to the existence of the queen who was once the thirteen deacon of the business alliance. The imperial emperor sent such a person~ IndoMTL .com~Sam Tamara feels stressful

"Master Duhan, please prepare quickly. Time is running out." Si Green was different. He quickly urged, Duhan raised his hand to the chamber of commerce on the carriage behind him, and saw that it was on the carriage. A lot of people jumped off immediately, and a few simple pulley hoists were erected very quickly. It seemed that some heavy objects were transferred from the carriage and pulled apart with the oilcloth covering the roof of the carriage. , Under the moonlight, the cold light belonging to metal came into Sam Tamara’s eyes.

"This is..."

Although Sam Tamara was mentally prepared, she was still stunned by the things on the carriage. The long black metal tube had an inexplicable cold feeling, and boxes of closed wooden boxes were carefully lifted. When the inspector stabilized the assembled object, the heavy shells slowly slid into the barrel with the peculiar sound of steel friction, and when the heavy bolts were firmly tied to the ground, Sam Tamaradi Once I felt my blood boil violently., Thirty-door imperial Thor, is this the so-called gadget? This is to lift the lid of Shataicheng, okay!
