Power and Empire Chapter 1614: Inheritance of battle (7)

Hu Keqili gently pushed open the door of the study, and saw His Majesty Falcon standing in front of the window with his back on his back. The beautiful seascape outside the window looked like a huge piece of green in the sunshine in the early summer of May. Emerald, the fleet broke through the white marks, and the hovering seabirds lingered on the masts. Everything seemed so peaceful, but I don’t know why, Hu Keqili felt the calm of the sunset, just like a storm is about to come. Precursor!

The afterglow of a layer of gold shines on the back of His Majesty Falcon, and the light in the dark is like the center of the storm. His Majesty Falcon looks a little sincere, supporting the powerful empire across the vast ocean outside the window. The Eagle Empire looks at the world, everything should be for him!

"Your Majesty!" Hu Keqili respectfully stood upright, put his right hand on his chest and saluted the fat man,

"Hu Keqili!" The fat man turned around from the window with a little thought, his eyes looked like a sharp sword at Hu Keqili who was standing opposite, and the **** said unexpectedly, "I thought it was. The deputy who sent the document, I didn’t expect it to be you, but it was just right! Lord Faaborg just sent someone from Gaul Kyoto to send an urgent letter. At the Imperial Conference of the Gaul Emperor that ended ten days ago, someone It is proposed that in view of the current unstable situation in the Northwest, it is necessary to establish a Northwest General!"

"Northwest Commander?" Hu Keqili frowned his eyebrows slightly, his eyes were filled with anger. Is the emperor of the Gaul Empire blind? The entire northwest is under the influence of my Falcon Empire. The intention of establishing the Northwest Chief is too damn!"

"It’s not a blind man, but surrounded by a group of self-righteous officials, it’s almost the same if you’re not a blind man! "The fat man has a calm face and can't see too much emotion, so he said slowly." Although he knew that the opposition had no effect, Fu Lord Fort still expressed strong opposition at the meeting immediately, and threatened to refuse to return to the front line to fight the Slavs, and asked the Emperor of Gaul to reconsider, but the Emperor of Gaul refused, and the decision of the imperial meeting should come down soon. Lord Faaborg, let us be better prepared!"

"Prepare? Master Fabao means... to go to war?" Hu Keqili hesitated for a moment and asked cautiously

"If it's a war, in your opinion, how big is our chance of winning?" the fat man asked evasively

"With all due respect, Your Majesty, if the Gauls are so ignorant, we might as well directly use force to occupy the entire northwest." Hukochili has a calm face. With the arrival of local reinforcements. The forces we have gathered on the northwest coast are already It has reached 200,000, of which more than 150,000 troops can fight. If the previous accumulation of strength and expansion of the strategic space were for greater self-protection, then now is the time for us to show our fangs. Now the entire northwest is ours. The sphere of influence, even if it is a head-on fight with the Gaul Empire, it has the same power to fight!"

"Showing fangs?" The fat man rolled his eyes to his powerful thugs, and grinned slightly. "Our fangs are not so sharp. Although we have taken control of the northwest coast, it does not mean that the entire northwest will stand completely. On our side,

Once the war begins. I can assure you that most of the Northwestern region will not hesitate to separate the relationship with our northwest coast. After all, they have been attached to the Gaul Empire for decades, and many generations have been vassals of the Gaul Empire. This recognition and the result of this recognition Interpersonal relationships can’t be changed in just one year, especially Denia and Rusend, who have more than one hundred thousand troops, show respect to us on the face of it. In fact, are they fighting each other in the mainland? Little abacus. Once the war begins, we need to disperse more than half of our forces just to deal with these two areas. In the southwest, Murphy Obern's Southwest Army has expanded not so quickly! Speaking of war with Gaul, I’m afraid this Murphy Obune is more anxious than us."

"Murphy Obern will fight Gaul...?" Hu Keqili looked stunned.

"Do you know? Lord Faaborg's letter said that at this time the Gaul Royal Conference. The only person who opposed the establishment of the Southwest General, he was Murphy Obern!" Fatty didn't. Answer, instead, there was a glimmer of cold light in my eyes, which is not easy to detect,

"No way. According to our relationship with the Southwest, even if it is not hostile, it will never be a friend. It is good if he does not support it. How can he still speak for us at the Imperial Conference!" Hu Keqili was surprised. Froze for a while, saying that he couldn't imagine it,

The fat man smiled at the corner of his mouth, walked to the desk, picked up a letter on it, and shook it. "At the beginning, Murphy O'Born was in charge of the Southwest to contain us, but now it's only 2 short. In the past month, instead of confrontation, the same voice was rarely heard in the southwest and northwest.

The seemingly ordinary surface, in fact, the turbulence caused within the Gaul Empire is definitely no less than a small earthquake. Now many eyes are definitely watching to see how the Gaul Emperor handled this matter. Otherwise, other regions will also follow suit, and the entire Gaul is afraid that a crisis will break out in an instant!

"With the commander of the Northwest, the next one should be the Southwest. Emperor Gaul’s mind is too obvious. Murphy Obern is just worried about his lips and teeth. The next one is his turn. After all, everyone can see. The position of Southwest Commander, a confidant, will never fall on him!"

Hu Keqili showed relief on his face, and sighed, "Murphy Obern is a smart man! It's easy to make icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow. With this kind of favor, if necessary, pull us to Kyoto, indeed More reliable than those nobles"

"Smart! It can also be said to be ambitious"

The fat man put down the letter with a chuckle, and looked out the window. "In this letter, even Lord Faaborg was a little moved by his support. Rarely said something to this young man who had taken his position. Good thing, I know that the person in charge of this new Southwest District secretly allows many chambers of commerce in the Southwest District to set up an underground trading field at the exit of the pass. This way, the nearest water tower will get the first month, and we can get our goods at the lowest price invisibly. Then one changed hands and sold to the hinterland of Gaul at a high price.

"The reason for speaking for us is actually just for his own benefit," said the fat man. "He still needs us to attract the attention of Kyoto. This Murphy Obern just defeated the reputation of Gangfei, Absorbing a large amount of labor force generated by the war, the military strength of the Southwest Army has exceeded 150,000, and its combat power and morale are even more than before! Maybe the Emperor Gaul himself did not expect that Murphy Aub was thrown by himself to prevent disasters. En unexpectedly will be like a fish in the southwest, and his fame is like the middle of the sky. Now that he wants him to give up, it is no wonder that he is unwilling to let go.

And with the buffer of Lord Faaborg, even if we know that he will use our light to develop his influence in the Southwest, and even use us to fight the emperor, we will choose to turn a blind eye because of this relationship. One eye! "

"This guy doesn't want to use the southwest to come..." Hu Keqili curled his lips slightly, with an expression of suffocation,

"Come out of the Gaul Empire dulì? It's hard to tell! There are examples of boldness like ours in the northwest. It is normal for Murphy Obern to have such a mind." The fat man sat down on his seat. Ten fingers crossed on the belly, his eyes flickered, and the voice said in a deep voice

"Actually, from the beginning, he should have planned this way." The fat man unexpectedly revealed a hint of appreciation. "In name, he lost a bet with us and had to let go of the entire southwestern market, but on the other hand. The large amount of cargo that our caravan left away has not filled the southwest economy that was hit hard by the invasion of the Congolese and African empires. You know, although the Congolese and African empire’s troops have withdrawn, they have also destroyed half of the southwestern area. The grain-producing areas on the left and right, coupled with the instability of the people in the enemy-occupied areas, the grain stocks are almost depleted. If a large number of grain seeds and cotton and other materials are not available in time to survive the winter season of communication, turmoil will occur in the entire southwestern area.

And these very scarce materials, if purchased from the hinterland of Gaul, the price is two to five times higher than the real cost price, and they will be limited in quantity, but if they are purchased from our merchants , Because there is no tax cost. In addition to the proximity of the road, the price is at most one-third higher than the cost price,

"At this point, it's not our northwest, the southwest has long collapsed from the inside!" The fat man's voice stopped, his fingers tapped on the table, and he slowly said, "For the time being, regardless of Murphy O'Born's calculations. At least the Southwest District secretly has the intention of confronting Gaul Kyoto, which is a good thing for us. Since it may be a mutually beneficial companion in the future, I really want to meet this Murphy Obern. Some The matter is open for discussion, better than being sneaky now!"

"Would you like to go down and arrange it?" Hu Keqili said cautiously

"No hurry, I heard that this year is the first year of Emperor Gaul’s ascension to the throne." The fat man smiled slightly and waved his hand. "It's a pity that there have been too many things recently, otherwise, I wouldn't mind going to Gaul Kyoto to see Now, anyway, I am also in power on the northwest coast of the Gaul Empire, and the Gaul Ministry of Government has sent me an invitation to watch the ceremony. The centuries-old empire still has some memorable details, if you don’t take advantage of the peace. At first glance, I’m afraid I’ll never see it again when I reach the Burning City! The celebration of the first year of the throne, don’t become the last light of the empire’s fall!"

"The afterglow of the empire?" Hu Keqili glanced out the window with a weird face. Under the golden sunset, the beauty of the long green coast is dazzling. It is because of the dazzling that rarely appears unreal. After hesitating for a while, Hu Keqili boldly said, "Your Majesty, there is actually one incident reported by his subordinates this time! The port has captured a Dongting man!"

"Dongting people?" The fat man was a little puzzled. Is it worth the fuss to capture a Dongting?

"Your Majesty, it's the Dongting people outside the Long Wall!" Hu Keqili lowered his head, hesitated for a moment, and said in a more serious tone. "Although the port is not sure if what the other party said is true, according to some The sailor of the port Kujit confirmed that the Dongting man who accidentally came to the hinterland of the empire did not belong to the now known Dongting tribe, and should have come from outside the Long Wall!"

"Which tribe is the other party?" The fat man got up from his seat a little excited, and walked a few steps back and forth,

Dongting people have always been my biggest worry. Although only 20,000 people have appeared this time, no one can guarantee that there will not be more people from Dongting. Can the long wall of defense block the east court? Human horseshoes are still an unknown unknown. In history, the Mongols used to ride on the European continent. At that time, there were only 20,000 Mongolian cavalry soldiers. They beat the whole Europe in a sea of ​​blood. The feeling of fear made fat people feel. I am like a small bird who flies up and down to build a nest with wood in his mouth every day. I am always worried about being blown by an unknown storm. I have nothing all night. I think of seeing the eastern cavalry driving away the slaves outside the long wall. In the tragic scene of the siege, the fat man absolutely believed that the brutality of the Dongting people was absolutely destructive to a country and nation.

"The other party claims to be Mierbu"

Hu Keqili responded cautiously. As soon as his voice fell, the fat man's footsteps suddenly stopped, and his shiny eyes made Hu Keqili speculate.

Is it wrong? Or is this Gedongting person a fake? Then he heard His Majesty Falcon whisper excitedly, "It turned out to be the Mi'er Division of the Great Wall Battle. It's really nowhere to be found after breaking through the iron shoes! It takes no effort to come!" Mi'er Division, of course the fat man remembers this. Let the names of all the Slavs who participated in the siege of the city gritted their teeth, and the three thousand Cavalrymen of Mier’s Cavalry were scattered without real contact during the battle. The fat man remembered this still fresh, and originally hoped to be able to catch a few people. Court people's. But he didn’t even touch one of the hairs. Afterwards, I learned from the Slavs that these eastern cavalry came from the same tribe, the Mier Ministry.

"Where is the person?" The fat man couldn't wait to ask, finally there is a real "Dongting person", with this person. The Dongting Empire, which has always been under pressure, can finally lift the veil of mystery. What people are most afraid of is not knowing. As long as you fully understand any problem, there will be a way to deal with it, and the fat man wants to figure it out. As the fake envoy, is it true that the Dongting Empire will launch a Western Expedition?

When the fat man saw Brother Mirkin, the ambitious young man in the East Court was lying on the cold ground of the prison, fainting on the ship, and he was beaten by the guards as soon as he reported his identity at the pier. Half-dead, dragged in from outside all the way, such a tossing. Even if Brother Mierjin's body is very strong, he can't stand it. The port has reported layer by layer. It was the fifth day when he reached Hu Keqili's hands. By the time the fat man arrived, Brother Mierjin had already lost most of his life. If it’s not breathing, it might be thrown out like a corpse

"Are you sentenced?" The fat man glared at the prison officer. The prison officer weakened his legs on the spot, and hurriedly complained, "No, Mr. Hu Keqili specifically explained that he will not be sentenced."

"Then what's going on?" The fat man looked angry. The hot air was filled with an unpleasant burnt smell, a soldering iron, clamps, a few clamp sticks temporarily found with blood stains, plus 4 tall, sturdy and naked torturers. The fart that has made ordinary people frightened, in front of him, a godly executive hand, holding a leather whip that has just been oiled in his hand, splashed with white water, such a whip, just a click It can make the prisoner's skin open and fleshy, the pain will die alive, the pain will enter the bone marrow, even the soul will be trembling, and the sting of salt water will not faint

"This is the last prisoner's. It is a murderer who specializes in killing children. We are really furious, so..."The prison officer looked pale and spoke unclearly

"Forget it, get out." The fat man waved his hand displeased. He was a little anxious just now. Now he can see that there is indeed no torture, otherwise the young clothes will not be so complete, even a little blood on it. No, the face is a little paler, but there is no such kind of dark blue that was caused by the great pain. The prison officer and the people rushed away. The Falcon Empire also has prisons. If there are prisons, they will naturally have these. People, in this era, prisons have always been linked to darkness. As long as the ministry is too much, the fat man will not study it deeply. This kind of thing can’t be managed completely. At most, the prison officer’s boss is brought in and ruthlessly 'S reprimand.

In a moment of confusion, the almost unconscious Brother Mirkin raised his unkempt head, his eyes finally got the focus in a trance. He was a fat man dressed in general, lifting his chin with a riding whip, Brother Mirkin Smiled bitterly, and said weakly, "Don't look, kill if you want"

The fat man was surprised for a moment. He didn't understand Dongting language, but this young man dressed in grassland came out of his mouth, which was enough to make him a little excited. It seems that this guy really came from outside the long wall. Yeah,

"Haha~IndoMTL.com~ Forgot, you don't understand my Dongting language!" The young man looked up again weakly, this time with a sentence or two similar to the pronunciation of Ikadiva Dongting. , Especially the pronunciation of Dongting is exactly the same

The fat man hurriedly lifted his head with a riding whip, looked at him with a pale face and said, "Are you from Dongting?"

"Yes?" Brother Mierjin rolled his eyes weakly, he was too weak, he didn't sell the face of the fat man, his mouth was grinning, but in the next moment, brother Mierjin's gaze was frozen in the fat man's grip. Up the left **** with the whip,

Black Youliang is like an obsidian ring with a black star, which almost made the eyes of Brother Mieljin burst out,

As long as people from the steppes have heard of the Obsidian King Ring of the Golden Family, this is proof that the glorious empire existed.

Brother Mierjin has never seen the obsidian king ring, but he often hears the elders in the clan mention the country. The magical thing about the obsidian king ring is that even in a dark environment, the obsidian king ring can One lit up,

That is a gift from the God of the Prairie to the Golden Family who protects the grassland. Only the Golden Family is eligible to wear it. (To be continued...)
