Law of the Devil Chapter 162: [Two hundred and five generals]
Chapter 162 [Two hundred and five generals]
The dungeon of the Empire Supervision Office is nicknamed "Death Sanatorium" in the aristocratic circles of the Imperial City. According to the laws of the Empire, the Ombudsman exercises supervision over the imperial officials and the aristocracy. The Ombudsman has the power to supervise and collect all kinds of evidence, but it has no final judgment.
It is well known that the Inspectorate is actually divided into two halls, inside and outside. The outer hall is also responsible for publicly accepting various anonymous reports, and his men have led a group of mysterious spy reporters, who are responsible for supervising the comments of local officials around the empire. . The inner hall is the real core. After the fall of some important people in the imperial capital, they are usually sent to the inner hall of the Supervision Department for processing.
In other words, if you are only a sesame seed-size official in one place, even if you have committed treason, you are not eligible to enter the Inspectorate of the Inspectorate. Those who can enter are either prime ministers or ministers of various ministries, or important military personnel. There is no certain level. You cannot enter this "death sanatorium".
Erhai Lake has no ups and downs, and no one knows what will happen tomorrow. Often today, it is still the eye-catching power of the people, and it becomes a prisoner the next day. Today's imprisoned prisoner, maybe the next day the wind changes, they can shake out of the prison of the Supervision Department and restore their official duties. Therefore, in the prison cell of the Inspectorate, the honorable prisoners held here are in fact extremely preferential treatment. In addition to some poor living conditions, other food, clothing and housing, often the person in charge here to do their best to meet, open the door to convenience. After all, before the prisoners here came in, they were all big men in the power and wealthy party, and no one dared to offend. Although people are in trouble now, maybe after two days, they will go out. If this time offends this power. The people in the cell here have to suffer.
So, the prisoners often held here are very comfortable. It is said that in addition to food and clothing, even if you want a woman, if you are willing to spend money, they can be sent in.
Everybody knows this hidden rule. However, any senior official has opened his eyes to such a thing. Because when people have luck, maybe they will fall into that place one day when they are in trouble, not to mention that such incidents also offend people's boring business. Why is it so hard? The trick of Erhai Lake is to lessen the useless enemies.
Therefore, the condition of the prison in the Inspectorate is so good and the treatment is excellent. It even fell into the name of a "sanitarium". However, the word death is also indispensable. All who can enter here are felonies. In the end, if you can go home and continue to be a powerful person after healing, or just go to the court ... then it depends on each person's fortune.
Dou Wei had heard of these things before he came to the prison of the Inspectorate, but when he saw them, he realized that they were not as exaggerated as those spread outside.
The Empire Supervision Office is located south of the city. In the imperial city in the forest of tall buildings, this inspectorate is only formed by a large small building that is three or four floors low. It is an unopened path with a deep road. The sun is not enough, but the green pine trees on both sides are a little more gloomy in this environment. The gates of the Ombudsman were not grandly built, instead they were a little old and rotten. Especially the open space next to the gate is used to park the carriage, which is almost a little chilling.
Which of the official departments of the imperial capital is built magnificently and solemnly? As the imperial national first-level general inspectorate, this parking lot is small enough to accommodate only three or five carriages.
But understandable: OK. Which aristocrat would be okay to run here?
After the coup d'état, a lot of noble ministers who participated in the coup d'état were detained. Many people who did not get involved on the spot, but who were dug out afterwards, belonged to the great prince's party. People invited here for tea. This only made the original gloomy Supervision Office a little more popular. The soldiers at the gates were soldiers from the Guards Corps drawn from around the imperial capital.
Du Wei was named hereditary duke by the regent. And after the coup. With so many glorious court titles hanging on his head, what a court magic consultant. University graduates, astrologists and so on, etc. Now, he is almost the hottest red man in the entire emperor. Such a person came to the Inspectorate. The chief inspector of the inspectorate was not present, and he did not know if it was. It was deliberately avoided, and only one of the clerks in the inner hall, Baron Robertsky, was greeted with someone.
Du Wei rode on a white horse, followed by two red-court court magicians, and two princes Chen gave him the attendants of the inner court, sat on the horse, and glanced at the people in the supervision department who greeted him in front of him. He rolled over the horse and handed the whip to his followers, with a sincere look: "It's hard, Master Robertson."
"Master Duke is coming today ..." As a character in the Supervisory Office, Robeski has welcomed him for many years. Naturally, he is a well-established figure, and he is speculative. An interview explored: "Is there anything the Regent ..."
"No." Dewey shook his head and cast a reassuring look at the other side: "I'm here for personal business. I want to see Count Raymond."
Robsky immediately knew what he meant. Who knew the identity of the new duke? Now he came to visit his father, which was expected. Robeski quickly dispelled the followers, and personally led a person to lead Dewey into it.
The inner hall's jail looks like a reduced boulder-shaped castle from a distance, only about three stories high. It is said that the origin of this castle is also quite interesting.
Before the Roland Empire unified the continent, the imperial capital was the capital of a small and medium-sized country in the middle of the mainland. The Dawo Castle in the Supervision Department was originally the palace of that small country. However, later the Emperor Aragon established the unified continent of the empire, and the emperor was all in this city. In addition, the towering imperial palace was built. The original ruined small palace was naturally abandoned, and when the walls of the capital were built, there was no Stone, this ruined little palace was also demolished in half. Most of the stones were filled on the walls of the Imperial City. And the remaining half of the land was not demolished. Later, this small palace that was destroyed by the country was built very sturdy, and it simply became a prison of the supervision department.
It used to be the royal palace of a country, but now it has become a place for prisoners. The dramatic changes in history are really impressive.
The castle, which is piled with huge grey stones, has a thick and steady taste when viewed from the outside. When you walk in, you immediately feel a sense of coolness. The thick and hard boulders completely blocked the heat of the sun, and the interior of the castle was full of gloom. The oil lamps on both sides added a third of coldness.
Du Wei's boots trampled on the icy rocks, and as Baron Robertsky walked up the stairs, a huge iron gate was right in front of him, and several heavily armed warriors wore armor. Holding an axe gun, there is an archer on the lookout next to it. Not far away is a group of heavily armed soldiers. Obviously the guard is still very strict.
The iron gate rises slowly. Baron Robertsky led Dewey inward, went up two steps, and walked into a corridor to the left. The corridor in this old castle was also full of icy boulders. It's just one room in the corridor. The doors are all solid but closed iron gates. Only a small opening is left on each door, and it is barely able to feed some food every day.
"Earl Raymond has a different identity. I have already arranged a spacious single room for him." Robertsky knew that at this moment he was going to take a big shot of the new duke's horse, and introduced him again and again: "Earl Raymond My lord, I also knew him at the beginning. Of course he is here now, and of course I wo n’t have any hardships. I have three meals a day, all are delicious and delicious, and afternoon tea is sent in every day. Lord Earl ’s mood in these two days is still It ’s not bad. I just do n’t like talking very much. I just sit in the room and read a book every day. He also ordered me to send a set of "The General History of the Mainland" to go in. At this time, he should have just been drinking afternoon tea while reading ... "
Du Wei sighed, looked at the supervisor of the inspectorate, and smiled, "Thank you, Master Baron."
Turning across a corridor, Suddenly Du Wei stopped. Hearing a short woman's chuckle faintly heard from an iron gate passing by. The laughter was charming and flirtatious, and when she heard it, she had a strong smell of wind and dust.
Robsky naturally heard this. His face was a bit ugly at the moment. Although this inner court act has long been a well-known hidden rule, after all, Du Wei is the new duke, and this half-earth boy may not know the tricks. When he returned, he spoke out in front of the Regent ...
Thinking of this, Robersky was sweating coldly, and he couldn't help secretly regretting that he shouldn't have received the gold coin of the prisoner held in this room for five hundred gold coins, and found him a red card in the south wind moon circle. In fact, the red-card prostitute's overnight fee was only three hundred, and he himself swallowed two hundred from it, needless to say.
Du Wei only smiled gently, and said leisurely: "It seems that the rumors are indeed true. This 'death sanatorium' is also worthy of the name." He pointed at the iron gate with a woman's voice and laughed: "What is closed here is Which adult? "
"Yes ..." Robersky said with cold sweat, "It is General Longbottom."
Du Wei originally asked it casually, but Robertsky answered the name, but he could not help but keep his mind in mind, and his heart moved: "General Longbottom? Is he still here?"
Although Du Wei didn't know too much about the aristocratic circle of the imperial capital, he still heard the name "Long Barton".
Speaking of which, this person is also considered an alien.
The empire ’s expedition across the desert in the northwest and the aliens 20 years ago, after labor and people wounded, they won a “miserable victory.” The original plan to cut the grass and root it was blocked by the temple. Although the war was successful, Lost its meaning, and laid a curse on the empire.
After that, the empire stationed 20,000 cavalry on the alien steppe after the desert in the northwest. The 20,000 cavalry really spent countless gold coins piled up every year, because there was a desert separated from the empire, and 20,000 troops were alone. Outside, the annual supply and replacement of equipment, etc., all cost several times. The empire's finances are almost to maintain the 20,000 cavalry every year with the financial resources to feed a legion.
And this General Longbottom was the leader of the 20,000 cavalry seven or eight years ago. Speaking of this person's weirdness, it's really a bit emotional. This guy came from a low-level aristocratic family (who is really rich and powerful, who would be willing to be taken to the ghost place of the exotic steppe behind the desert?), Relying on his own ability to mix up with the commanding officer, But there is no war on the mainland. He was eventually sent to the northwest to command the 20,000 "horse price cavalry".
This guy has a series of nicknames ever since: Butcher, Executioner, Madman, Lechery, etc.
When it comes to this person's ability, it's true that riding and fighting soldiers are all good hands. And his character is that makes people laugh and cry: this person is greedy for money. And insatiable, irritable personality, do things ... you can say he is arbitrary and reckless, you can also say that he is decisive.
In short, a military chief made an appraisal of him, which was surprisingly appropriate, and gave him a nickname: General Two hundred and Five.
Several well-known stories of this General Longbottom have even been heard by Dewey. The 20,000 cavalry he brought with him was to deter the steppe aliens. However, it is not allowed to rub easily with the aliens in this weekday, but this guy actually took a bribe of 300 gold from a tribal leader of the steppe aliens, and then took 3,000 people to help others to destroy the other tribe that night. door. Afterwards, several tribes on the grassland came together to discuss justice, and he actually changed hands and sold the tribe who bribed himself. Turning the muzzle helped other tribes to wipe out the tribe that bribed themselves. As a result, there were a lot of benefits when entering and leaving, and only 5,000 heads of cattle and sheep were obtained. Nearly everyone of his soldiers had a new set of bullock and sheep fur.
In the end, things broke out and caused a lot of diplomatic drool trouble for the empire. Many of the big guys above really hate this troublesome two hundred and fifty-five. But no one wants to go to that broken place in the northwest, and no one has replaced him for a while, so he can only stay there.
One more thing: Because there is a desert in the middle, the Imperial Army's support for the 20,000 cavalry is often not delivered on time, when the warhorses are replaced in a certain year. The 20,000 cavalry had 500 old horses to change, but the Imperial Army dragged on for three months without news. The General Longbatton was furious, and immediately took 5,000 people, posing as horse thieves, swept the two tribes on the edge of the grassland overnight, and snatched hundreds of good horses. A tribe of 2,000 people was killed by him, but he also took thousands of cattle and sheep from his family and brought them back. In-place slaughter and incineration that cannot be taken away!
"Never leave a fur to those savages." (That's what he said).
This acts as a robbery by a horse thief. He did it more than once, and was given the nickname "chickens and dogs don't stay." Most of the gentlemen in the capital could not accept it, he actually condoned prostitutes.
Originally, Qiu Ba, who is a soldier, is a cheap name, and it is normal to find a prostitute to vent on weekdays, but this one can do this kind of thing that is not on the stage. He is the most beautiful one. Thousands of people turned over the desert, emptied several brothels in a small town on the edge, and all the mules in him bagged him for three days. Fighted a few with local defence forces.
In these two hundred and fifty words: "All the men are men. Are men dead? Everyone is dead! Damn, each one is bitter on the grassland, and he won't go home for a few years without mixing. I have n’t even touched a woman in my life. Is there such a **** place as a soldier! Lao Tzu ’s men are dead and men, the lower body matters, the military does not care, I ’m in charge! ”
When this man was on the ground, the 20,000 people he believed in were almost like gods, and he really dared to break through with a spear. These people are almost half bandits and half army in the northwest, and even once, the chief of a large tribe marries a daughter. The lecherous general stopped the sending-off team after listening to the people halfway, regardless of the local customs, and brightened his sword. Be sure to see what the bride looks like.
In the local customs, the girl before marrying can't be seen, but the lecherous general doesn't care about it, and tears the girl's veil off, leaving a sentence after reading: "Damn, a look Asako, I'm not the youngest 妾 水灵 of Lao Tzu. "After that, he led people away.
After the incident, the two tribes did not succeed in marriage. The bride with the look on her face was returned and she could never marry. Also makes the two tribes almost hit. The bride and maid's tribe brought people to find the lecherous general to settle accounts. In the face of tens of thousands of people, he dared to bring people to the grassland array and confront them for a day and night.
Finally, people from the tribe negotiated and blamed the two-hundred-and-five general for face-to-face violations of the prairie tribe. The general shrugged and said, "Isn't it just looking at your face! So, this punk girl. Nobody else, I want it! Come to my camp, I'll marry her! "
At that time, the two hundred and twenty-five general said in front of the messenger sent by the other tribe:
"Fuck, I will look at her face during the day, and peel her off at night to see what she thinks! Look tired, I can still breathe out. I will have a meal in the morning and noon and evening. Fight. It ’s okay to fight again at night! Huh, what ’s so great! "
That's it, he took a small house.
When it comes to the story of the two hundred and fifty-five generals, there are still many things. Du Wei looked at it almost as a legendary novel. At the end, people like Du Wei could not help but sigh.
Where is this two hundred and five? Just a talent! !! He killed and snatched on the prairie. Greed, seemingly rude and greedy, is actually doing things that divide and rule! To grab the bride is to destroy the marriage between the big tribes and marry yourself. It is even more meaningful ... not to mention that he is definitely a good hand!
So talented, so talented!
But in the end, the two hundred and fifty general was unlucky. He not only robbed soldiers, but even the caravans of the Empire! Just about eight years ago, he led someone to rob a famous caravan on the continent. The caravan crossed the desert with dozens of carts of cargo and was snatched by him before entering the grassland. Also killed more than two hundred people. This matter turned out, and no one spoke to him anymore.
However, after seeing this section, Du Wei later learned from some places that the caravan robbed by the two hundred and fifty generals were all sold with metal ore!
There are no mountains or minerals on the prairie! Cattle and sheep food and clothing. Can be self-sufficient, but the sword and gun weapon of the soldier cannot grow from the grass, nor can it be born from cattle and sheep! So on the grassland, the most lacking is iron! The caravan robbed by the two hundred and fifty-five generals was vaguely a caravan of a large aristocratic family, and for their own self-interest, they dared to sell ironware to the prairie wolves!
It is said that the two hundred and fifty generals robbed this caravan. Not once or twice. Finally, some of the nobles in the imperial capital were provoked, and as a result, they were cut back and taken back to the imperial capital for trial. After that, Du Wei did not know. When he wanted to come back that year, the two hundred and twenty-five Wizards were estimated to have died unjustly.
Unexpectedly, this guy is still in the supervision department, and he has a rich prostitute ...
The Baron Roberts was so worried for a long time that Dewey heard the name of General Lombardo, two hundred and fifty-five. He is the caretaker here. Of course, he knows that the two hundred and fifty generals have offended many nobles, and he has not died to this day because after he was arrested, the 20,000 cavalry men made trouble, and the wife he married was a certain prairie The daughter of the tribal chief spent a lot of gold on the official court of the Imperial City, which saved the life of the two hundred and fifty-six generals, but he did not judge or let go, and has been closed for so many years.
Look at the appearance of the young duke ... is there a Rolling family among the nobles who offended the two hundred and fifty generals?
"This ... Master Duke?"
Finally, a smile appeared on Dewey's face, which dispelled Baron Robertsky's concerns: "Oh, it's okay."
Du Wei shook his head. Just two steps later, he suddenly stopped, then turned around and looked at the iron gate, thinking for a while, and said, "Yes, this Longbdon general is my favorite weekday. What? "
"Like?" Baron Roberts froze for a moment, wondering what else this guy could like? It's delicious, it's delicious, and there's a woman ... other than that, it's gone.
How smart Du Wei is, he guessed at the expression on the other side. He thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "Yes, I don't know about these situations ... if you find a woman like now ... inside General Longbottom, how much will it cost overnight?"
"Uh?" Roberski almost didn't stare at the eyes ... Did the Duke listen to the mule inside and snorted, and became jealous? Grandma, if this can also hang this newly popular Duke, I will let my daughter go to the door of the Duke's house every day to hum! If we can get close to this grand duke, there is no bright future!
He was distracted by his thoughts, and said quickly: "It won't cost much ... 500 ... Ah, no! Three hundred! Throw the three hundred gold coins, and any chick in it will have to accompany the day."
Three hundred?
Dou Wei raised his eyebrows. Although these 800 gold coins are a huge sum for ordinary people, Dewey still looks cheap. Not to mention elsewhere, the ecstasy cave where the true aristocracy outside the Imperial City that Prince Chen took himself was originally tens of thousands of thousands of gold coins.
Comparatively, these three hundred gold coins are considered to be a relatively "consumer" consumption level.
Du Wei laughed: "What's better?" Since it's sentimental, let's send it bigger.
Robsky looked cold and sweating. He didn't expect this moment, but the young duke drew himself to talk about the price of these wind and moon. He trembled: "This, lord, the south of the city is no better than other places, the south of the city is In the Pingming area, the cost of this area is nowhere near as high. In some famous places in the south of the city, the red card fairies are the highest in the night. But if they are in the north of the city, Then adding a zero is not enough. "After a pause, Robertsky took a hard breath and spit." But this General Longbottom is weird, those real fairies, he's If you do n’t like it, you like this low-priced code. He said that prostitutes should be relaxed and hot. Most of the high-priced prostitutes are ... Well, what did he say ... oh, pretend He said that the more expensive the dress, the more gold coins would be spilled out before he touched his hand, and he really wanted to pull it to bed to do it, and not much pleasure ... So ... he also said that Lao Tzu was for the sake of cricket, and Not for the maiden ... "
Du Wei almost covered her belly with a smile. Aloud: "Wonderful! Wonderful!"
Instead, Dewey pointed at the door and lowered his voice: "Baron Roberts, so from today on, you will give this Baron Longbottom a delicious and delicious offering, as for the woman, you Give me a breath to the south of the city, um, according to the general's preferences, find ten eight, and then send in one every two days. "He paused and said:" I will send you some tomorrow Here are 20,000 gold coins. Please run out of me before you run out. "
Robsky stared at his eyes with a weird expression. He looked back at the big iron gate and thought, "I'm afraid this two hundred and fifty general is out of luck. I don't know if he is How did you catch this red-haired young duke?
I'm thinking about how to think of a way to return the two hundred gold coins that have blackened Longbottom. Such people have come out and developed in the future, and I dare not offend ... Between, Du Wei has come to the front, Turning back: "Let's go, Baron Roberts, take me to see my father."
