Power and Empire Chapter 1996: Chaos
The strong wind blew the windows humming like a ghost crying fiercely. It blew the lights in the Ivy League hall. The lights shone on the faces of the people in the hall. Everyone looked nervous or serious.
Almost no one is talking, but the mind is silent there,
In the middle of the hall, there is a sketchy topographic map spread out on the conference long table. The cold winter air makes everyone’s breathing a puff of white smoke. Hundreds of officers in light armor were waiting quietly, the raindrops were like a rush of drums, and the muffled thunder rolled across the sky.
The footsteps in the passage outside the hall suddenly sounded, "Everyone, have you made up your mind? The pirates have arrived on the Phenix Long Road, with no more than a hundred people!" The door was violently opened, and a loud voice followed. Everyone came in and stood up. Many of these officers seemed to be capable. Rows of weapons were placed on both sides of the hall. The sharp swords of rigid and non-knights and the heavy guns with Mitsubishi notches were spread flat. The bow and handshake position on the table at the door is the sign of the Qingteng army, and the house is full of death.
In the eyes of everyone, an officer of the Ivy League with a cold expression came in.
was wearing a short leather armor, with two white cloth belts entwined behind his back, firmly tied the armor jacket, murderous, and his eyes were so sharp that people did not dare to look at him.
This young man is called Goodrian. He was born in the Gang-Fairy family for a hundred years. His father was Goode, the commander of the Eighth Army of the Gang-fei who fell in the hands of the Falcon Empire during the Battle of Toronto. The Good family was in Gang-fei. The military has a great influence. It belongs to the typical guardian faction in the Congolese and African army. It is also a category that directly suffers from the defeat of the Congolese and African empires and the Falcon Empire.
"The opportunity is not to be missed. If you lose it, you need to fight anyway!" A man with blond hair and a handsome face stood out from the officers in the hall. It was the young man who asked to see Marcos in the morning. , Short-fitting close-fitting lock armor, wearing a family long sword with a crown on the scabbard on his waist,
"Yes, you can't let the country thief resign so easily! Let's go right away" an officer said with gritted teeth
"Father, let's see how I use the blood of this country to pay homage to you today!" The young officers in the hall are very enthusiastic. Most of the officers who can be recruited into the Ivy League are like Goode, with parents or elder brothers. Lost in the hands of the Falcon Empire, this is blood feud! Some moving officers walked to the weapon rack,
"Everyone, please prepare like this!" Gudrian waved his hands with a serious face, and said solemnly. The voice was low and short, shaking everyone's eardrums. "I'm just over three thousand miles away. Now that the Falcon Empire has forcibly cut off the south, and shamelessly sent troops to take over the north from the Istanbul, this time the Central European Union promised us, as long as we are unwilling to express our support for the Central European Union, the Central European Union will be fine. Taking the opportunity to send troops to intervene, national affairs will not be the case. If the Minister of Military Affairs is assassinated, the China-Baro alliance will have a reason to send troops!"
Goodrian’s voice paused, although it was still low, but every voice seemed to burst out of his chest, "Just a Fei, if you don’t want to be completely annexed by the Falcon Empire, you must be self-reliant!" He The tone was trembling, and he couldn't speak anymore, and the tears in his eyes would drip down almost at any time. Forcibly turned around, and paid a military salute to an oil painting portrait of the former Emperor Fei on the wall of the Qingteng Army Hall. Hundreds of people in the hall, all followed in awe. It was quiet inside. Only people choked up occasionally.
"Booming," the sky was full of thunder, from far to near, endless, lightning violently lit up, through the black cloth blocking the windows. Everyone in the entire hall was pale. Goodrian turned around, raised his hand, gritted his teeth and gave the last order
"Everybody has it, and the thief of the country is punishable!"
"Zhou the country thief!"The sound shook the hall,
Rainwater fell from a high place in a long street. Marcos's frame slowly crossed the long road. In ancient cities without modern drainage systems, sewage flows everywhere under heavy rain. The winter rain is muffled and the sky is constantly lit and rustling,
Large groups of bird clouds are pressing on the city layer by layer. The Qingteng army post in front is getting closer and closer, and the adjutant who opened the road in front makes no sound, and his hand has been subconsciously placed on the hilt of the sword. , Marcos in the carriage looks dignified like the rainstorm outside,
Hundreds of **** cavalry guards were naturally divided into front, back, left and right, guarding the middle carriage slowly moving forward, the wheels were rolling on the ground full of water, and there was a snapping noise, although I thought that no one would dare to be in the palace. Shots from a hundred meters away, but these gangsters still seemed nervous, the rain was getting heavier and harder, and all the cavalry exposed to the outside couldn't open their eyes. The rain rushed down the armor, and the team came to the Qingteng army guard post. Several Qingteng army soldiers opened the gate of the guard post, and the carriage passed slowly, and everything was safe!
"Hhoo!" There was a trace of relief on the adjutant’s face, which seemed to be overwhelming. Just outside the palace, there is already a royal concierge at the door. Today is the eighth birthday of the emperor, and the ministers will come to congratulate you.
" is the driver of Mr. Marcos." A group of concierge officials hurried up, wet and holding a huge umbrella in their hands. They had long been stunned by the heavy rain and wind. The welcoming team that followed them all pressed their hats one by one, waiting in the heavy rain in embarrassment, all of them were so cold to the bone, they were still busy treading on the water to greet them.
During the storm, the ceremonial officer shouted, "Master Marcos, your majesty is waiting in the Lorraine Palace! I have sent people to inquire three times. It’s great to see you here." The ceremonial officer shouted hoarsely. The rainwater caught in the cold wind poured straight into the mouth, and it was really embarrassing to the extreme.
The carriage stopped at the gate of the palace, and the adjutant jumped out of the carriage to open the side door. I saw Marcos jumped down in a raincoat, splashing a lot of water. The top hat on his head was pressed down to the center of his eyebrows. With the raised collar of the raincoat, he couldn't see the expression on his face at all. He looked at the courtesy officer who came over and asked, "Why is your majesty in the Palace of Lorraine?" Isn’t it in the Vigaria Palace?"
"Today is the last day of the adult’s employment. Your Majesty hopes to tell him something alone!" The ceremonial officer explained with an ugly face
"Take a job! Take the road." Marcos waved his hand to the courtesy officer, followed the courtesy officer on the water and stepped onto the steps outside the palace, where several well-dressed court ladies had been waiting. One of them was holding a light and soft cloak. Marcos took off his raincoat and put on a cloak. The ceremonial officer took him to a corridor and stopped, indicating that the emperor wanted to see him alone.
Marcos walked alone to the chamber where the emperor was. The rain curtain was heavy, and the rain pounded on the copper palace ornaments, making a dense and crisp sound. Marcos glanced across the old palace, a little dazed, here is It used to be a residence of the Gangfei emperor, but there has been no emperor for more than ten years. The lack of maintenance and management of the palace smelled of mildew in such cold rain. This place has been far away from the center of the world for many years. It’s been quiet for so many years and hastily become the main palace to house the emperor. Except for the refurbishment of the door at the entrance, most areas in the palace have not been renovated.
The future of Gang Fei is like this world in the rain. From a distance, I can’t see Marcos talking to himself. He squeezed the resignation report in his hand and moved forward in silence. He heard a sudden faint voice outside. . Listen carefully, there is nothing left. The leader scolded himself in his heart, "Suspicious!" As he was about to move again, there was a sudden crackling sound, and it was no longer clear from a distance.
Immediately afterwards, there was a series of crackling sounds like tidal water. Apart from these, the sound of shouting to kill also sounded at the same time! This sound rang at the front entrance of the palace, at the side entrance, and in the direction of the back entrance.
"Extreme national thief! The national thief is in the Palace of Lorraine!" The voice came vaguely in the wind and rain, and Marcos was a little surprised when he heard it. How did you know that he was in the Palace of Lorraine? The sound of shouting to kill became louder and louder, and in the end, it was already a violent trend. Countless soldiers wearing vine armor rushed to the Lorraine Palace like a tide.
The guards of the palace at the gate were dressed in formal dresses, and their weapons were also ceremonial. The tip of the spear was even covered with a soft cloth cover. No one expected that the Ivy League guards at the gate of the palace would be attacked. The guards were directly destroyed. Under the impact of dozens of officers in light armor, the shadows behind did not know how many people were behind. The sharp blade flashed with cold metal light in the crowd, and the whole palace gate was full of reflections of metal armor. ,
With the smell of blood in the wind, the sudden burst of assassination made the palace guards stunned. Blood splashed, and the palace guards were shocked into chaos. A team of archers came in time and shot," the leader of the team shouted, swiftly Sweeping out the first row of arrow clusters, the Qingteng army in front had just rushed past the barricades of the palaces, and there was a dense arrow shot on the front, and suddenly shot over. Suddenly a loud voice came from behind, "Only kill the national thief," Defend Your Majesty! We are the Qingteng Army! "The palace guard hesitated." Rush in and punish the country's thief! "The sound came like a mountain tsunami,
The wind blew the hallway brazier violently, sparks splashed all over, Marcos involuntarily narrowed his eyes, pulled out the saber in his hand, and heard the adjutant's screams in the direction of the palace gate. A few Qingteng officers appeared in front of him, holding sharp Gangfei knight swords in his hands, and one of them looked at him sharply,
"Do you need this? Just to kill me alone and make such a big movement!" Marcos looked at the young officer in front of him, smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, Gudrian, a young officer whom he had hoped for.
" Of course it is necessary, because today, we are going to cut off the cancer for this country and get a new life!" Gudrian said coldly, revealing a sense of perseverance
" Where is the emperor? You guys..." Marcos looked at the front with some worry, the empty chamber, the other party can enter here and wait for himself, proving that the emperor is not here! This changed his face. It is not a pity for him to die, but the emperor must have nothing to do. The situation in Gangfei is already like this. If the emperor and the minister of military affairs die on the same day, Gangfei will not fight and chaos inside.
" Your Majesty is naturally well, and you don’t need to worry about the rest! "Gudrian seems to know what he is thinking, and he curled his lips in disdain, raised his knight sword, and shouted to several companions behind him." What are you hesitating, kill him! The EU-Pakistan Alliance has a reason to send troops! For this country, he must die!"
"Kill!" Several Qingteng officers rushed over with ferocious shouts,
Marcos kicked a nearest officer and bends backwards, smashing the next few people over together, almost without hesitation, using the **** saber hilt, he heavily touched the sneaker on the left. Blood spurted wildly, the assailants stepped back and knocked down the brazier. Numerous fire spots turned from the fallen brazier to the ground. The palace was even more chaotic. The attendants were pushed and crawled, and more The people who fled to the inner court were all servants. Desperate, some people were dripping with blood, flying around like flies without their heads.
"Protect your lord!" Marcos's adjutant ran heavy with a team of guards covered in blood, panting, and the Ivy Army at the gate of the palace had been defeated,
"Stop them!" Scattered Ivy officers rushed up to stop them. With the knight sword in their hands, they used shields to block the guards that were running frantically. A dozen Ivy officers erected enough to withstand the impact of long guns. On the shield wall, the opposing guard’s stabbing gun hit the shield. With constant crashing sounds similar to torrential rain hitting the ground, Marcos’ adjutant himself is a powerful warrior. In his hand, he used a heavy sword weighing more than ten kilograms as a hammer, and smashed the blocked officer Qingteng's head. The brain cracked, and in the rain on the ground, there were corpses everywhere. Some people were injured and were still crawling desperately in the rain. The blood was flowing, and there was scarlet everywhere, and the situation had been tumultuous and chaotic to the extreme.
"Hurry up, I can't stand it anymore!"
An Ivy officer who was besieging Marcos said anxiously that several strong young men had no choice but to take a sixty-year-old man, so that the high self-esteem Ivy officers felt shameless, Ma Kos deserves to be a veteran on the battlefield. Although he is not an outstanding military commander, and he is old and weak, he is not easily killed by a few eager stunners.
"No more delay, Ulas, kill him!" Gudeanli was holding a wounded hand and suddenly shouted to a dark place with a distorted face. It was the angle between the pillars. If you don’t look carefully , It’s hard to find one lurking there. It seems to be pressing. Marcos only felt the cold light rushing towards his face, a huge pain in his shoulder, and the tail of a crossbow was swaying.
"Falcon Crossbow?" Marcos's pained face was pale, his hand was holding the position of the arrow, his eyes flashed with unbelievable expressions,
In the sharp whistling of the wind, the dull echo of arrows pierced into the flesh rang. It was another crossbow arrow, and his chest seemed to be hit hard by a sledgehammer. The power of the light crossbow shot at close range was unexpectedly terrifying. Marcos took a few steps backwards in pain, staggering back and forth. On the wooden pillars of the palace wall corridor, he breathed a heavy breath, looked down, and was surprised to see the rapidly expanding redness in his chest. At this time, the fiery pain spread from the wound to the brain. He frowned calmly, touched the wound with his hand, his hand was full of blood, as if looking at something that had nothing to do with him. I stood up straight and picked up the sword on the ground,
"Go to hell, country thief!"
Another lurking officer came out from the other end, holding an infantry crossbow unique to the Falcon Empire in his hand, looking at him silently more than a dozen steps away, and Andrian’s excited and trembling voice Still yelling "Shoot! Shoot him!" Fortunately, the Rila people provided the Falcon Empire crossbow that was available on the black market, otherwise it would take some time to kill Marcos in one fell swoop,
"Puff!" The loaded crossbow arrows fired again. The powerful crossbow arrows penetrated Marcos's warm body, stinging against the palace pillars behind him with blood. The blood spurted out, and the blood splashed down the wooden pillars drop by drop on the ground and snow. The cold wind roared, and Marcos's body completely softened, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep forever.
a cry broke the loneliness, the adjutant who was less than 20 meters away from Marcos knelt on the ground and cried, intermittently, depressed and low, more like choking, he cried hoarsely, "What are you doing! , What are you doing! Beasts, you have killed adults!" Seeing Marcos is dead, the guards who followed the adjutant stopped attacking~IndoMTL.com~The thief has been punishable! The surrounding Ivy Army soldiers made joyous sounds,
The rain splashed down on the dripping eaves of the palace, woven into a rain wall. The scenery in the courtyard became blurred in the blood water. The overwhelming cheers came into a side door of the palace. The little emperor stood in front of the window with a complex expression. There were still a few people in the room, who were all important ministers of the empire, and there was a middle-aged man sitting on the opposite side alone. , With half-bald forehead, sharp eyes, wearing a red-brown dress of Rila people,
Hearing the sound from outside, the middle-aged man stood up, saluted the little emperor respectfully, and said, "Your Majesty has made a wise choice. Marcos died in the crossbow of the Falcon Empire. Your Majesty will announce The Qingteng Army has long been bought by the Falcon Empire. It controls the army to attack the palace and kill the Minister of Military Affairs. Even if the Falcon Empire is the overlord of the Congo, it cannot investigate itself. In order to show fairness, your Majesty can invite the China-Europe Alliance. Investigating this matter, the Alliance will secretly send 10 million funds to your Majesty. With this, your Majesty will buy weapons to arm an army of 100,000! I only hope that your Majesty will attack the Falcon Army in the northern part of the country on both sides!"
"The northern part of Gangfei is the land of my Gangfei, how are you going to divide it?" The little emperor blinked,
"Please understand, your Majesty, our Central European Union still respects Gangfei very much, but the north is adjacent to the southwestern part of the Falcon Empire, so the alliance will need to control for a while before it can return Gangfei!" Rila Kingdom The corner of the messenger's mouth smiled. (To be continued) [] If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly pass.
