Power and Empire Chapter 1402: Two Heroes Meeting (1)
The sea in the northern part of Salander, the sun is shining,
The hot sun shines directly on the sea surface in the August season, as if to completely evaporate the sea water, shining deeply into the depths of the sea, a turquoise blue, the reefs at the bottom of the sea are clearly visible, and the white sea flying back and forth on the sea. Birds rise and fall on the white masts of battleships,
A huge fleet appeared on the sea, slowly heading north under the scorching sun. There was no wind on the sea, and the sails were difficult to fully open. The speed was very slow. Each battleship had a large Julier hanging from the top of its mast. The blue flag badge of the Si family seems to be slipping quietly on the sea,
At this time, it is autumn, the climate is hot, and the sea may encounter thermal storms at any time. In order to be safe and safe, many merchant fleets heading to the south are sailing close to the coastline of Salander. In the tide of the fleet, the fleet that is going upstream is the fleet of the Julius family from the Normandy continent.
an imperial battleship-class flagship, and 2 medium-sized battleships plus a transport fleet, a total of 21 ships,
In order not to reveal the strength of the empire, the fat man specially asked the navy secretary Du Stellenkai to send the guide ship, after a short stay in the southern part of Salander, and then directly took the Julius family fleet northward without stopping. Ruo Dehai,
偌德 is now the poorest area in the empire. The morality and martial arts prevail. The traditional military forces have been in power for a long time. The agricultural and commercial foundations are very weak. In addition, after the war and the severe drought in the south, the later period is very difficult. The German royal family even devoted the nation's power to the expansion of the army at all costs,
Ruode’s economy has long since collapsed, commerce is withered, fields are barren, and there are countless refugees. Although after more than half a year of recuperation, it is only barely stable, and such an area is used as a place for negotiation. The fat guy just doesn’t want the Julius family to know how strong his trump card is hòu
It's a pity that the fat man's hard work still can't hide some discerning people,
At the bow of the flagship of the Julius family, a majestic, broad-faced middle-aged man is looking at the edge of the sea with keen eyes,
The edge of the continent, printed and dyed in the sun, looks like a beautiful golden arc.
The sun in the sky poured all the heat on him, but he didn’t seem to feel the slightest, as if he didn’t know the hot sun and was trying his best to test himself,
His face is very calm. There was not even sweat on his forehead, and his short flax hair stood upright. In his icy sight, a merchant fleet loaded with cargo split the waves and brought a wave of spray past the side of the fleet.
is almost full of goods that are about to burst out, so that the middle-aged man’s face is also slightly surprised
"What team is this!" The middle-aged man turned his back on his back, looked serious, and asked without looking back
"Team 27. My lord!"
A young adjutant behind him, cautiously using a pen to make notes in a notebook
"So many! ‘Middle-aged people look stunned." What if you count the number of days ago? "
the lieutenant counted on the notebook with a pen. "If you count the day before yesterday and yesterday, we have already encountered 112 similar large merchant fleets along this coast, which is not even that number. A fleet of less than five ships!"
"Team One Hundred and Twelve? If it is converted into a warship. How big is this!" The middle-aged man squinted his eyes slightly, and he whispered his short hair like an arrow as the sea breeze murmured. His expression was very regretful. Obviously, because so many large ships were not used as warships but only as civilian commercial ships, the expression of resentment was not full of "Baidu ★ Meng Meng 桜 ★ Text"
"That’s why I said that the overseas barbarians are the overseas barbarians, how can they know what is called the concept of navy!" A clear and sweet voice, like a yellow warrior, came from behind the middle-aged man. Only one with a pretty face and a knight was seen A young girl in safari outfit walked up from the back deck with a pale face with her feet on riding boots.
"Theresa, aren’t you seasick? Why did you get on the deck?" The middle-aged man turned around with a frown, and looked at the girl who came by, even his father, who was famous for this name. My daughter also seemed to have a headache,
, "Even if it is seasick, I have to come up and have a look, otherwise I don’t know if I'm sold to an unknown wild land, isn't it the biggest joke!" The girl bit her lip. His face is icy, the upper body is tight leather armor, the full chest is perfectly highlighted, the lower body is a brown-black long skirt, and the slender legs are actually wearing black leather pants with metal patches. The beautiful curves of the legs are outlined, and there is a cold and glamorous, "His Royal Highness may not know, these merchant fleets are all private!" A young man with linen hair followed up, quickly looking embarrassed. "In this country, private individuals can also have a strong fleet. As far as I know, only the northwest coast of the empire, the sea fleet of the Falcon Kingdom has a quarterly trade volume of more than 2 million gold coins. This time I even made a deal with the family of 20 million in one breath. This money is of vital importance to the family! "Because of this? You conspired to sell me to a stinking man. Barbarian? "The girl looked very dissatisfied, her eyes could not wait to cut the young man in front of him into pieces
"This is the family decision!'Julie Hayden wiped the sweat from his head with embarrassment." Actually, it's not that unbearable. People can grow long, and they are also the lord of a country. There is nothing wrong in terms of physical fitness, ""the master of a country". Look at these merchant fleets. At first glance, you can see that they are a lazy and enjoyable guy. Only such people will attach importance to the development of caravans. Otherwise, he will do so. What do many merchant fleets do, isn’t it just to satisfy his extravagance"
The girl curled her lips." Such a scumbag should be killed. This is the good husband you chose for me? Julier Hayden, don’t be fooled because I don’t know the details of this guy, but I’m It is said that this guy has ten wives, and there are countless lovers outside. It is simply a model of lewdness and shamelessness. He is called the king of the lecherous generation. Do you want me, the noble princess of the Gaul Empire, to twist his **** and take off his clothes. Go get a bed with ten shameless savage women! "Ah... this. "Julier Hayden had a black line in his forehead, and was completely defeated by the pungent connotation of a girl. As a high-ranking nobleman, it is unimaginable to be able to say such disregarding words in his mouth.
But this one is different. The violent princess who once ordered Tu Chen to kill tens of thousands of Slavs is the jewel in the palm of Lord Juliers Fort. The eldest sister who walked sideways in Kyoto was older. Although she was banned for 3 years, her temper became more and more unscrupulous.
The girl saw Juliel Hayden being speechless by her own words, her eyes flowed, showing a fascinating charm, and the corners of her mouth sneered. "If it makes me unhappy, you are not afraid that I will abolish him, just Just like the little gangster who wanted to humiliate me in public"
"Theresa, you are too presumptuous, the little gangster in your mouth. You are already your Majesty the Emperor!" The middle-aged man's eyes were also twitching, and he seemed very angry
"So what, "Baidu ★ Meng Meng 桜 ★ text" can be seen in my eyes, that is a small-minded, like a needle-pointed, but not courageous kid! "The girl has a face of disregard, her eyes are as charming as a crescent moon
"If you have any dissatisfaction, you can return immediately, but the family's decision, there is no room for change! Even if it is suicide. We will bring your body over!" The middle-aged man has a gloomy face and a stern tone.
"You guys, partner to bully me..." Tears rolled in the girl's eyes, she looked extremely sad
Both men turned their heads too far. Everyone who cares about her "I hate you!" The young girl realized that it didn't work, she covered her face with her hands, turned and ran down the deck with a look of grief
"My lord, what you just said. Isn't it too unfeeling! After all, it is your daughter!" Julie Hayden looked at the crying figure of the girl, a trace of unbearable flashes across his face
"Do you think there is a woman who can calmly order the killing of tens of thousands of prisoners under the eyes of the barbarian army. Will it be hurt by this?"
The middle-aged man curled his mouth and looked melodiously at the distant mainland coastline. "Don’t forget, this girl grew up in a cruel army and has never seen anything. If I’m not mistaken, This girl must be thinking about how to knock more dowry from my old guy! Ikadiva war god, the youngest lord, I can guarantee that this girl who is worrying about how to marry, the corners of her mouth I must have laughed, and I still need to talk about it. Thank you. You did me a big favor this time. At the age of 18, no one dared to raise a relationship with the rich girl, and this is the one."
"No way! This is too..." Julier Hayden was stunned, "Cut, snail skills, not one-third of what I did in the past! Even crying and I need to wipe onions on my hands, too unprofessional I think that back then, I could be at any time... the middle-aged man shook his head with a distressed look. Looking into the distance, his face flashed with infinite memories of glorious years
Julier Hayden is completely sluggish next to him, he is indeed a father and daughter, this virtue is exactly the same,
I remembered that Lord Julier Fort, who was called the romantic man of the imperial capital generation and the first scourge of the imperial capital, seemed to cry like this when he learned that he was forcibly sent to serve in the Northwest Army by his family. That time, The family is like sending off the plague god. It took more than one million gold coins up and down to dismiss this guy who was crying and refused to leave. No one would have thought that the dude of the year would become a family in more than ten years. The most important core figure
"Cough cough" may be because I missed my mouth. "Middle-aged people rarely show embarrassment on their faces, so they immediately got serious and coughed hard, "Julie Hayden, how long will it take for us to arrive?" Virtue? "
The middle-aged man who raised this question is one of the most important figures of the Julius family this time, the commander of the Fifth Army in the northwest of the Gaul Empire, and the new consul of the Slavic region, Julius Fowler. Fort, the chief negotiator of the Julius family this time
"I have passed the cliff of Anis, I should enter the Rude Sea in one day." Julier Hayden regained his senses abruptly and hesitated. "I don't know why, I always feel something is wrong. But I don't know where it is!'
"It’s nothing weird." Julius Faubourg withdrew his gaze from a distance with a smile on his mouth. "With so many merchant fleets, we haven’t seen a real Falcon Kingdom Navy. This is already The most wrong thing is, you can imagine what a scene we will be looking at for the rende, who has been set as the negotiation site! "" The adult means, "Baidu ★ Meng Meng 桜 ★ text" the other party keeps concealing it. Real strength! "
Julier Hayden waited with a look of enlightenment, yes, from the beginning to the end, a guide ship came out, a real warship was not seen, this is really not in line with the background of the developed sea trade of the Falcon Kingdom, and there is no navy. Protection, where does sea trade prosper! "Have you noticed the coastline in the distance?" Julius Faubourg raised his head. His gaze swept into the distance like a blade "coastline?" Julier Hayden was stunned. What does Lord Juliersford mean? "I have been watching the coastline in front of us for two full days. The upper part is straight, that is to say, we have sailed northward in the vertical direction for two days since we arrived in Salander, which is more than 800 kilometers in length.
"If what you just said is correct, we are facing Salander, which is actually a thousand-mile peninsula. "Julius Fort looks very serious" and according to the information you provided. Negotiations The location is only the southernmost part of the main body of Ikadiva. The land above is several times that of the Salander Peninsula. From this, it can be inferred that the territory of the Falcon Kingdom is definitely greater than ours. Imagine much bigger"
"With such a vast land, or not as good as Obaro, but definitely more than any great monarchy, our negotiating opponent is not as weak as it seems on the surface. On the contrary, we may be relying on a giant this time, Or this is the truth that the other party has been hiding!" Julius Faubourg's voice stopped, his eyes pierced and said flatly, "I can't wait to see it now. The **** of war in Ikadiva. ! Hope not to let me down!"
If the fat guy hears such a comment, he will definitely feel that he has met a confidant,
It's a pity that he is now busy rushing to the negotiation site, across the Paravin Plain. Enter the undulating southern part of the hills, then cross the mountains and enter Ruode. All the way across more than five hundred miles, finally arrived at Macduff, the estuary to the south of Ruode
This is a small port in the southern part of Ruode, which is not very visible.
With the development of sea trade, although a trade market has appeared and there are many horse-drawn carriages, there is no standardized management. The sound of buying and selling goods is noisy and undulating on the streets. Some private goods gather here, and there are still There are leather tents used by merchants to buy and sell goods, with colorful flags flying above them.
Fat women carrying baskets pick and choose in the market, merchants bargain loudly, people of all kinds come and go, and from time to time you can see a merchant ship slowly approaching ashore, a very mediocre place, completely compounded The so-called "chaos, poverty" image,
In order to achieve such an effect, Fatty even asked the tax collector in the town to collect taxes on the market once a day, each time it was a pitiful dozens of silver coins,
was forced into a disciple in Paravin. The fat man felt very depressed, but he was able to force Duoze into Normandy. At least he could keep the enclave overseas of the empire. In five to ten years, there is no need to worry about it. The rebellion is dangerous,
According to the nature of choosing long-sleeved dances and the eloquence of politicians who deceive people and do not lose money, there is no problem to calm people's hearts. As for the military, Saraon is in charge.
A five to ten years of development in Normandy for a disciple, the fat guy thinks the deal is still worthwhile. Isn’t he just a disciple? What if he learns something? The area of the Besu tribe is in the cold Northland. Even if Bezukaya is a rare wizard in a thousand years, can he embroider more flowers in that kind of Jedi?
On the cliff on the side of Macduff Port, is the famous Macduff Castle, with blue spires and white fort "Baidu ★ Meng Meng 桜 ★ Characters", even the outer walls are milky white Marble, although the size of the entire castle is not large, under the support of the blue sea and blue sky, there is a fairy-tale dreamlike feeling coming to your face
The fat man just thinks the castle has a nice view, but for Bezukaya behind him, that’s another matter. This castle is very famous in Nord, and the lord who built it was for his beloved little boy. The daughter built it, for women, it has extremely powerful lethality, on one side is the beautiful blue ocean, on the other side is the majestic hills and mountains, living in a beautiful and indescribable small castle, if there is another handsome prince ~IndoMTL.com~ That is the dream place of all female creatures "It's so beautiful!"
The fat man heard Bezukayana’s low exclamation, the outer door of the castle opened, and the horse team entered the castle. The eye was a large green lawn with hundreds of flowers blooming, dots of daisies, dazzling purple violets, and white. The hyacinth, Lidarcus, the Minister of Foreign Affairs who was in charge of the front battle, walked down the steps and held the Fatty’s horse in a straight tuxedo. "Your Majesty, everything is ready for negotiation!" "Get two more chairs." "The fat man got off the war horse and pointed to the old man and the girl behind him. "Multi-choice, the former Speaker of Doroc, the first governor of the Normandy region, Bezukaya, the Queen of Besu tribe, um, my Disciple! I think the two of them will also attend this negotiation!"
"Okay, no problem!" The hesitation on Lidarcus’s face was only half a second, and he quickly returned to normal. He turned around and whispered to the book reporter behind him, and the book reporter hurried away.
"Are the Julius family members here?" The fat man asked again
"No, but according to the information sent by the guided ship, it has already entered the Rode Sea this morning!" Lidarcus responded, "If nothing happens, I can arrive tonight!"
"So, I might meet each other tonight!" The fat man accidentally smashed his mouth, his eyes flashed with a glimmer of light. "I look forward to it, even the list needs to be kept secret. Who are the people here? "(To be continued) [This text is provided by the Qihang Update Team@v家丶千本桜] If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for a recommendation and a monthly pass.
