Power and Empire Chapter 1895: The Queen’s War (5)
Turritt Colleen, who knows that the essence of diplomacy is profit, will never hesitate after grasping the upper hand. She ignores her glares and looks at her sister, and sends a dozen transcripts of accounts that have been prepared long ago to more than a dozen companies. The representatives of the coastal countries very kindly expressed to several of the Strand Sea State allies, "If you are willing to lease the ports leased to the Strands to the Falcon Empire, the empire is willing to sell the Strands twice. The price! ""Your country is really willing to double the price!" The representatives of several countries in the Inland Sea who have agreed with the Strand Sea State have their eyes bright and immediately said that they can consider it, "If the Falcon Empire pays twice as much, Our Strand Sea Country will give four times as much money!"
The somewhat distorted face of the first lady of the Strand Sea Nation, glared at Turrit Colin who was digging her own corner, trying to reverse the situation. These countries are all Strand’s allies. , If you are really poached by the other party, you will not only lose face, but also the huge investment that the sea country has invested in these ports. If so, what face can you return to the sea country! "Quadruple? How embarrassed!"
The representatives of several countries were full of stars with joy, and turned their eyes to the Princess of the Falcon Empire, which meant that as long as you have a higher price than her, those ports are yours!
Turritt Colleen smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and did not continue to bid,
She just tested it. It seems that the family report about these countries is very correct. Their relationship with the Strands is not as indestructible as imagined. Sure enough, these countries are just the Strand Sea. China’s trading partners, but in inland countries, making more money is always more valuable than friendship,
Moreover, in the huge business circle in the Inland Sea where you are fighting for me, there has never been a solid state relationship. If everyone has interests, they will unite, and if there are conflicts, they will be hostile. Anything can be measured by value. This is the key to the collapse of the alliance headed by the Strand Sea State. "It seems that the Falcon Empire, which claims to have the richest southwestern region, is nothing more than this! My sister, as the imperial princess, even Don’t you dare to come out with such a small number? "The first lady of the Strand Sea Country finally showed a smug smile" Haha, sister, don’t get me wrong!"
Turritt Colleen glanced at the first lady of the Strand Sea Nation next to her, with a heart-wrenching smile on her mouth, and walked easily into the hall. "The empire is an olive branch with peace and wealth." Yes, we are not stingy with friends! But I am not stupid enough to introduce war into my own home for a few small dollars. "What do you mean by "His Royal Highness"? "A representative of an inland sea country is slightly astonished." It's okay. It's just a matter of fact. That's it! "Tullit Colleen smiled slightly and shook his fingers lightly." The Strand Sea State Navy has dominated the inland sea for more than ten years. It was good for the navy to dominate the sea, but now it shows the confidence that it wants the inland power to compete. , That’s another matter,
The port leased by the sea country is located at the connection point between the sea country and the land. Once the sea country and other land countries go to war, then these countries will be the first target to strike. It is the country that provides a landing port for the Strand Sea State. The sea State can freely plunder and then not return. I don't know if your country can also go with the ship! ""This..."The representatives of several inland sea countries were stunned on the spot." Seeing what my sister said, it seemed that the port was leased to you by the Falcon Empire. You can rest assured! "The first lady of the Strand Sea Nation has a cold tone and said with an unyielding expression." Who doesn't know that the Falcon Empire is a hegemony in the north, standing up enemies everywhere, invincible. And your merchant fleet enters the inland sea, fighting like locusts. Destroy everywhere, if the port is handed over to you, within a month, the port will be turned into a garbage dump by your merchant fleet! Especially the smuggling fleet is just like a cow! The trade order formed in the Inland Sea over the past century has been destroyed by you! "" Isn't the locust-like fleet a precursor to the prosperity of the port? As for destruction, it is because it is not under the jurisdiction of the empire. Do you think they dare to be in the ports under the jurisdiction of the empire? "
Turitcolin covered his lips with a chuckle, and his eyes lit up and said, "As for the smuggling fleet or the regular fleet, what is the difference for the port? On the contrary, there are so many smuggling fleets, they will bring rich Wealth, various talents, commodities from all over the world, the most important thing is that they can drive the prosperity of the entire region. So what can the Strand fleet bring? You are just their supply points and commodity transfer stations. The fleet is making money. , As for the port and the area around the port, have the Strands care about your life and death?"
"Yes, it's not a bad thing to have more fleets!"
"Smuggling is still a legitimate fleet. Does it have anything to do with our port?
The representatives of the inland sea countries looked at each other. That country did not want to make a fortune with the convenience of the port, but the strength of the Strands made the nearby ports almost in a repressive position. All the profits are made by Strant’s fleet,
"Don't listen to her bewitched, don't forget, when you are in danger at sea, only the navy of the Strand Sea State can help you!"
The first lady of the Strand Sea Nation is a little anxious. The most feared thing is that people’s hearts will be shaken. Half of the inland sea countries have chosen to rebel. Now the remaining countries have also rebelled. That’s for those who rely on leased ports to build The sea country’s commerce line was a heavy blow. My sister was really vicious, and she could see through the sea country’s commerce line where the lifeblood of the sea country’s commerce line was located in these leased ports. Not only did she not have to bear too much responsibility, but she could also enjoy the convenience of the port. This is the secret of a sea country that has not many territories, but is still rapidly rising at sea. "Everyone should know that the fleet of the empire is not inferior to the sea country fleet! When it comes to protection capabilities, the empire fleet stationed is the best for the port. Protecting "Thuritcoleen’s eyes flashed a sharp light" and as a business ally of the Falcon Empire, you can see from the general area that the resources of the empire, the vast area, and all kinds of rare and exotic objects are simply to you Open the door, wealth will roll in like a flood, and what can the sea country give you? Will they share resources and minerals with you? Will they use large amounts of investment to make the port glow? No, The only thing they want to do is to squeeze your port dry! ""Okay, I have decided, and I will return to China tomorrow to report the port lease to the Falcon Empire!" A representative of an inland sea country gritted his teeth and said categorically
"You..." The first lady of the Strand Sea Country's eyes were full of bitterness. Everyone around also felt that the situation was changing so fast that it was jaw-dropping and magical. Today is an eye-opener. The Strant, who should have been the winner, is showing a tendency to collapse. Everyone who attended the banquet had such a shocking discovery. From the moment the princess of the Falcon Empire stepped onto this battlefield, the situation immediately tilted. First, the defection of the inland sea countries, and then the strong support of the Turitite clan surfaced. And when the noble princess sat down, the unbreakable alliance of sea nations had been completely disintegrated!
Military Minister Imperial Marshal Marcos stood in front of the window sill in the top-level room of the Military Ministry Building, and his eyes through the window glass swept across a brightly lit luxurious hall in the distance. He saw a black carriage in the distance. Stopped in front of the steps, a woman walked down, and the banquet hall was filled with enthusiasm just now, and suddenly became calm and silent,
"Interesting meeting, isn't it?" Marcos looked at the distant scene. The corners of the mouth that are like orange peels are slightly curled. Even if you stand behind the window that cuts off the cold wind, you can feel how strong the silent collision that bursts from the two women on the steps at that moment, and it is not inferior to the confrontation of the two armies. The time is tragic!
Sisters' dispute? National battle? It is a beautiful picture where silence is better than sound at this time!
the adjutant held a thick pure blue marshal cloak in his hands. Standing behind him, he asked incomprehensibly, "My lord, who do you think is the winner tonight? I heard that one-third of the nobles in Bezuka received the invitation tonight, and most of the other nobles were Because they are not enough to be invited. But even those who have not gone must have their ears pricked up and hiding in the dark. I just don’t know that they are full of enthusiastic gazes. Everyone is guessing that they will see the Princess of the Falcon Empire. Eating awkwardly, or hearing the heartbreaking voice of the arrogant First Lady of the Sea State of Strand, "Don’t think about awkwardly, a group of trouble-free guys, don’t they know that fishermen may catch timid sharks in the shallow sea nets," But we must never capture the eagle soaring in the sky" Marcos heard the adjutant's words, turned from the window position and said to the adjutant behind him,
He took the thick, pure blue cloak from the adjutant, and put it on his body very solemnly, with a slight sneer at the corner of his mouth. "The Strant has estimated the wrong opponent and chose the wrong battlefield." What does your lord mean? "The adjutant looked stunned." They forgot that the eagle is the lord of the sky above, and they only have fishermen who lower their heads to fish! The Strand Sea State may have a powerful navy on the ocean, but here is land, hunting in the north. The strength of the Eagle Empire is recognized by the entire Obaro, and the Strands are humiliating themselves!"
"No, I heard that inland sea countries and many Central European and Pakistani countries are on the side of the Strandt!
The adjutant’s face was slightly wrong, the meeting of the two princesses was the highlight of the evening, and he naturally heard some news too,
He also used a report submitted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as the basis, and said proudly, "Given the current situation of the Congolese Empire, the best way to win over the Strands who have the hegemony of the inland sea is not to support them. It is to let the Falcon Empire completely anger this beast of the sea that is still indecisive"
"The banquet carefully organized by the Strand Sea State is actually a painstakingly arranged war. The inland sea hegemony owned by the Strands is destined to be unable to make peace between the two. The empire can take this opportunity to The inland sea countries headed by the Rand Sea State are tied to the chariot of the empire."
"Stupid logic, do you really believe it?" Marcos opened the door of the room indifferently, and stopped for a moment." The foreign affairs department idiots, their minds only thought about how to use others. But I never thought that we were also the target of being used by others, and we tied the Strands to Gangfei’s chariot...what **** logic, in the current situation, we tied the Strands? The Trantians want to tie us to the chariot! Wrongly estimated the situation and opponents, the end result is self-humiliation, not to mention what is the surname of the true queen of the Falcon Empire? Turret! Two The war of a Turret woman!"
Marcos’s voice paused, his eyes burst out with a dazzling light, he glanced at the adjutant who hadn’t understood it, and said in a deep voice, “If you are the head of the Turret family, you will put your cards on one Tomorrow's Huanghua, who will never be able to right his body, is still pressed on the imperial princess who can make the family glorious for a hundred years!"
"As for the naval strength of the Falcon Empire, others don’t know, don’t we who have experienced that tragic war still don’t know?" "Do you really think the Strand Navy’s chances of winning. By then, they Will they take care of our life and death? They can withdraw the fleet, and even sing about the high-profile development of the inner sea together, and the anger of the Falcon Empire is us! Our land, our people!"
So, it’s not someone else who is being tied to the tank, it’s us! "Marcos opened the carriage door that had already been parked at the door, walked into the carriage, and waved his hand to the adjutant behind him." Tell the families who are still waiting to see the excitement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will give an update after the funeral tomorrow. Explanation. Those ministers who died wanted to murder Your Majesty, so they instigated the Ninth Army to rebel, and the Ninth Army turned against the enemy. That's why there was no incident at 1.12. This is the reason why there is no incident. Everyone must maintain a unified caliber! "
"Is this explanation a bit far-fetched?" The adjutant looks worried." The Falcon Empire is forceful, and the 60,000 army squatted three hundred miles away. The enemy's sword has forced our necks. What can we do? Although it looks more like we slapped ourselves in the face, this explanation can at least prevent the war from breaking out immediately! ""But so many soldiers and officers that night! I'm afraid there will always be flaws! "The adjutant said cautiously," No! "
Marcos's voice was raised. After a moment of silence, he shook his head and said solemnly, "Tonight is the last time. I have already ordered that all the soldiers and officers involved in the incident will be disappeared! Tell the family who knows the truth. Who said the omission? If you speak up, then the emperor’s imperial meeting will ruthlessly remove them! The Ministry of Military Affairs will arrest them as soon as possible!"
"Yes, my lord. I understand!"
The adjutant heard Marcos's relentless words, and his body shuddered unconsciously. "Pop" the carriage door closed in front of the adjutant.
Marcos fell heavily on the leather sofa of the carriage, watching the street lights flashing through the carriage window, suddenly looked very tired, giving such orders always made him feel cold and disgusted, but as The Minister of Military Affairs, the Marshal of the Empire, the head of the Empire’s military, such orders can only be given by him
He once assured Mekaya, who had been executed, that most of the soldiers and officers of the Ninth Army would be acquitted. There were more than 6,000 soldiers and officers who participated in the incident that night, even though they were in the town. More than 1,000 people died under pressure, but more than 4,000 people were detained in jail. According to the trial, these officers and soldiers will be innocent because they executed orders from higher authorities. Most of the charges will be borne by Mecaya. Going on, a mutiny turned into a drunk disturbance by Mekaya and other subordinate officers, as the main actor of the incident,
Mekaya was secretly executed on the fourth day after the incident. His head was chopped off by a heavy axe of a criminal warrior in the army, but his head with a smile on his face rolled in a pool of blood. The headless body that was as tall and strong as a mountain did not directly fall down. At that moment, even the murderous servant was frightened. A **** head with a smile on the corner of his mouth, a headless corpse that did not fall,
It was late at night, and the pale white moonlight was shining down in the sky. Everyone was shocked. Only Marcos, who was in charge of the supervision, came by alone. He squatted down without his body, and carefully picked up the one from the pool of blood with both hands. Head, "Go and fetch the trial book!" Marcos said with a solemn expression to the trembling adjutant behind him, "Here you are! "The adjutant, bring the trial book like a scroll," take it, the Empire will remember. Stay with you!" Marcos put the trial scroll into Mecaya's slightly opened mouth, and the headless corpse fell heavily behind him, but tonight ~ IndoMTL.com ~ he broke his promise, because the empire needs these People are silent, and the blood of more than four thousand people is destined to flow in the moss-covered prison tonight. Their eyes are full of joy waiting for release, and they will never see the sun rising from outside the prison tomorrow. They belong to the empire. The hero, but he could only die on the back of a dishonorable crime! Because of their death, they can save the empire from a disaster that may destroy the country
"Mecaya, if you were waiting for me in hell, I will do the same!" Marcos smiled bitterly, rubbed his temple lightly, and the carriage shook and stopped in front of the emperor’s residence. Your Majesty is waiting for you!"
An energetic flax-haired Janitor officer pulled the car door. Marcos tidied his collar, walked down vigorously, without seeing the fatigue in the car at all, and asked the officer in a low voice. "Has it been confirmed? The Vijay Falcon has come to Putao in person?" "Yes, my lord, according to our eyeliner report on Universal, the northern emperor brought a large number of warships and an elite of about 20,000 people. Guards! "The young guards officer lowered his head and replied with an ugly face." He landed in Pu Tau and quickly formed a command headquarters. Everything shows that the heart of the Falcon Empire is rising like flames! His Majesty is very worried. , The other party will use our improper explanation as an excuse to launch a war against the entire southern part of the empire,
Although we have 200,000 troops in the south, the Falcon Empire has a lot of troops prepared! So that matter..."
"It's all solved! Foolproof" Marcos's face was pale, and he nodded with difficulty (to be continued) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly pass. Your support is my greatest Power. )
