Power and Empire Chapter 2112: The wind and clouds have turned sharply (5)
The situation changed too quickly. The empire’s declaration of war was like a slap in the face when everyone had time to react, and it hit the face of Eberros’ representative Princess Luo Lan. Above, this beauty who has been the focus of the meeting from start to finish, her face is like white paper, dazed, sluggish, whispering, what's the matter? "Someone felt the atmosphere of the meeting was strange, and asked unclearly, and realized that the situation was not right. How did the representative of the Falcon Empire left? It seemed that something wonderful was missing
The eyes of the people talking around were all on the beautiful figures who stayed there. The bright sunshine in the afternoon shone on the luxurious oriental silk-woven ornate long skirts, and the beautiful and astonishing faces carried a desperate coldness and vividness. With her dazzling yellow hair falling on her shoulders, everything looks paler
"The empire has declared war on Alberros, just now! This beauty is terrified!" A middle-aged nobleman with a stomach-stuck next to him licked his lips and kindly explained.
"What, declare war! Are you sure you heard it right, haven't you just announced peace?" The other party was stunned for a moment.
"Oh, this is an accident. I heard that it was the Eberross who interrupted the important meeting between the imperial emperor and the imperial high priest. The barbarian emperor went crazy on the spot! That’s it, this time there’s a lot of fun, Eber How could the Rose Kingdom send such a woman, even if it fails, it is a disaster!"
"Who said no? I have the courage to disturb the meeting between the emperor and the high priest. The Kingdom of Eberros deserves it. Well, what are you going to do to provoke that barbarian?" The other party looked affectionate you know, hesitated to watch I glanced at the uniform on the other party, and his gaze lifted.
"Are you... Silas?
"I am Prince Ferrey of the Kingdom of Silas!"
The middle-aged nobleman with his belly stubbornly smiled and stretched out his hand. The other party stretched out his hand in astonishment, his depressed face was like swallowing a live fly. Now who doesn’t know that Silas are falcons The eagle dog of the empire, he said the barbarian just now. It won’t be spread to the Falcon Empire.
"What do you think of the imperial loan? Our country is one of the countries that have suffered the most from Hungary. I think this loan should be given to Silas..." The middle-aged Silas aristocrat was brazen. Said
At this time, there are more and more various talking voices, which just pierced Luo Lan’s ears like the tip of a needle, her slender and white fingers were suddenly clenched together, and there was a huge pain in the palm of her hand. This is the attitude of the nations! This is the allies who vowed to stand on their side the day before! Did the Empire’s 20 million gold coins reverse everything?
"Your Royal Highness, this result is regrettable. But as a representative of a country, I need to consider my own country, I'm sorry!" A representative of another country who has a good relationship with the Kingdom of Eberros walked cautiously His attitude basically represents the attitude of various countries. The empire's sword is still hanging high, but it is still out of the sheath. Fortunately, it is not on himself. That hapless fellow, poor Eberoth, you didn't know that the Falcon Empire was a barbarian from the northwest, and reasoned with barbarians. It's strange that he doesn't beat you,
Fortunately, this barbarian is quite rich, as long as he is happy. There is still hope for the day! "Many representatives looked away thinking about this, turned around with a gleeful look, and some unlucky ones took a deep breath. Some secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and raised the wine glasses in their hands and greeted each other.
The reputation of the empire outside is indeed a bit fierce. The previous several large-scale wars due to the problem of non-compliance have caused many countries to worry about the situation after the empire has taken control of Central Europe. This northwestern barbarian will not Will Obalo be bloodbathed? After all, it took a few years to wipe out the Gaul, the overlord who dominated the north, and swallow the Gangs, the inhuman, the overlord of the West Coast. Now it is even more than one hand that has grabbed Central Europe. The Central Europe Alliance has carried out several large-scale offensives. It’s not uncommon for the Hungarians to be defeated by a single blow with a force of this magnitude.
The fierceness of the Falcon Emperor is the source of deep concern for the monarchs of the Central European and Baro countries. This strong entry to the Lord is even more stepping on the corpses of the Hungarians, such a powerful country, With such a sturdy force, once you decide to conquer the badly injured Central Europe by force, who can stop it? The disaster caused by it is far greater than the Hungarian Rebellion. Fortunately, the attitude of the empire is pretty good. Everyone knows that the so-called loan can really fall on every country is very limited, but it is a Favorable signals, the empire stood up to the crowds and tried to punish Hungary. It also embodies the posture that a mainland hero should have. Everything in the country is ultimately attributed to strength and commitment. A regional hegemon does not dare to punish Hungary. Protecting one's own vassal, how to protect the whole area,
In its attitude towards the countries, the empire did not raise the sword or adopt a consistent tough attitude, but adopted a soft policy of using money to open the way. This is enough to make most of the Central European and Baro countries let go of their inner worries. The empire’s entry into Central Europe is the overall situation. The start of the Central Europe region is completely connected to the central and northern Europe. The representatives participating in this meeting did not realize that they are participating in history. This meeting unveiled the Obama A new era in Luo Dalu, an era of true integration of East and West commerce, the era of the Falcon Empire,
In the Kingdom of Silas, the camp where the Imperial Central Army is stationed has been expanded by two or three times, and all the stockpiled logistical supplies have also been transferred here. Outside the Central Army camp, it was killed in one go from the northern part of Rila. The patriarchs of all ethnic groups are sitting together in the central military camp at Xiting Barracks,
It’s already July. For the prairie tribes who are accustomed to the high and fresh air of the prairie, this kind of day is the most difficult. The central tent is opened with brackets around it, so that the outside wind can flow in. "What is the meaning of King Khan, Master Duoweiyan, just tell the truth, have you fought this battle yet!"
The reward of 3 million yuan was originally a sure thing, because the sudden return of the Eastern Hungarian Army caused the Xiting people to rush out again.
After the **** battles, the spoils obtained were not enough to satisfy the Xiting Army’s appetite. Fortunately, King Falcon Khan was sympathetic to the Xiting Army’s pain, and first allocated 1.5 million gold coins before it could be regarded as letting the Xiting people. His face looked a little better, but King Khan’s withdrawal order was not issued, and no one dared to withdraw his troops privately. In this way, tens of thousands of horses were bred here, and people and horses were mixed together. There are all kinds of flavors. Fortunately, the people on the grasslands are used to it, but I don’t think it is too irritating. It’s just that on the prairie, tribal grazing is the same, but the grazing is mobile. Go and let it go, it looks like it was nailed to death like this,
"Khan King cannot withdraw his troops. The army just stays like this, it's not the same thing!"
The patriarchs of all races looked at Duo Weiyan eagerly. You are the brother-in-law of King Khan and the head of our Xi Ting. This is the time for you to come forward. Duo Weiyan is holding his chin and face. The expression on the above makes people wonder, the empire's entry into the battle of Central Europe seems to be the overall situation. But King Falcon Khan allowed the army to gather momentum. It didn't seem to be an attitude of peace. If such a posture was only the Xiting Army, it would be the Empire Central Army separated from one side. The same is in the hands of soldiers,
The parade sentry horses are constantly being released, weapons are repaired every day, and support materials are constantly being shipped. Defending the army's inside line and taking the initiative to launch an offensive are two concepts. If it is a defense, with the current empire’s gathered forces, I am afraid that no country will dare to take the initiative to attack. If it is not a defense, it must be an offensive. Complete preparation, sufficient supplies, and after training, can continue to fight. A line of elites, this sharp-edged look looks no different from the war period. Does the empire still want to fight? Who do you fight with?
Just when Xi Tingjun’s head was smashed, a black war horse, under dozens of guards, was hurriedly heading towards the big camp. The old man on the horse had a dark complexion and pale hair. The fluttering, thin body gives people a feeling of firmness and iron. It is the former Doroque speaker from the Gaul region, Doze,
Feeling the lack of imperial diplomatic talents from the Diplomats of Rila, the fat man thought of this long-sleeved, good-dancing Duoze,
For the empire to control Central Europe, military force is only part of it, and an excellent team of foreign officials is needed. This will allow the empire to expand its influence to the maximum. Sometimes problems that cannot be solved by swords may be just a sentence on the negotiation table. In terms of words, sometimes two countries fight life and death for a region, with hundreds of thousands of troops fighting each other, and the piles of corpses can only get the advantage. It may finally come to the negotiation table. Because of the incompetence of the foreign affairs officer, they were ruined in the negotiation. The situation abounds,
After being tempered in the Gaul region, Doze has a considerable ability to unify the region. It is the best candidate for the empire to sit in Central Obaro. He has been appointed as the governor of the empire’s Central Obaro recently. Unexpectedly, at the age of 60, the old man Doze would have such a chance. This is the governor of the Central Obaro region. He holds the authority to frighten a region. Under his gaze, there are more than a dozen kingdoms trembling and trembling. The chief official in the frontiers is much heavier than the small place in Gallurasti,
This team arrived in a hurry,
Before the big camp, Riposti, the head of the Imperial Central Army, brought a group of generals from the Central Army to greet him. Because of the performance of the Battle of the South of Rila, he and Jaglins have been officially promoted to the Imperial Central Army. The deputy commander of the army, the cavalry of Jaglins temporarily rested in the northern part of Congo, and the tens of thousands of Imperial Central Army within the Riela area are temporarily integrated in his hands. He is already a veritable important general of the empire, and he is only thirty-six years old. There may not be no chance to aspire to the top of the emperor, a military and political governor of a region,
"Master Doze, did your majesty's order bring it?"
Reposti’s expression was a little anxious, the army was ready to dispatch, and it had been two days since he had waited for the order. He had also heard about the situation of the meeting, and it went very unsuccessfully. At this time, it was necessary for soldiers to show up. When did the empire ever have the word tolerance and provocation, it must be repaid with blood. This is your majesty’s style
"Is it true"
On the battle horse, Duoze's face was a little focused, and he took out a red letter from his arms and handed it to Reposti. At this moment, it seemed that wind was blowing across the vast expanse outside the camp, shattering some leaves and branches. Rolling up into the sky, this scene made hundreds of Imperial Central Army soldiers wearing armor at the entrance of the camp stand straight immediately.
Within a radius of tens of meters, do not hear a sound of coughing and saliva,
Daying can feel its own seriousness and killing. At the end of the high camp, two soldiers have already folded their arms and raised their trombone horns. There are more than a dozen generals of the Imperial Central Army. Seeing the red on the surface of the letter, the body shook together, and at the same time I thought in my heart, this is an order to start war!
The port where the sun is shining at noon, the black carriage is parked by the port’s observation deck,
The port of this small city is not big, so there are very few ships coming and going. Most of them are dhows with fishing nets, and white dhows are on the nearby river. The breeze blowing on the blue water, Rila, is not a country backed by the ocean, and a small port like this is only used by the inland river.
The blue river surface is crystal clear. You can see the swimming fish, the two curved half-moon bridges, and the spires of houses on both sides of the river. Just like bathing in a golden light, the golden light illuminates the street, such a calm and beautiful scene is reflected in Palschenna’s beautiful eyes
"Take out 20 million in one breath to appease the countries of Central Europe. Isn't this kind of big-handed style like yours?" Palschenna, the high priest of the Sky Temple, stood on the observation platform, her hand slightly showing her hair. Turning up, revealing a pretty face that charms the voices,
"Cough cough, don't be afraid to tell you. That's all Hungarian money." The fat man coughed awkwardly and touched the bridge of his nose with his fingers. "And twenty million is not that easy to take! It's all said and done. Well, that is to recover the funds that were rebuilt because of the Hungarian disaster, that is to say. If it is not built, there is no money to take!"
"Building?"
Parschenna was taken aback for a moment, and then she laughed and said, "I know, how can you be so kind. But what does the so-called construction mean? If the other party takes the money and does not build, what are you going to do?"
"The content of the construction is very simple, building roads. Building trading posts or something! Of course, it must be repaired in accordance with the requirements given by the empire!" The fat man smiled slightly, explained it, and showed a full smile on his chest. Money doesn’t do things, it’s not difficult to do”
"The funds of the empire are given in batches according to the construction progress. The first money is not much, which is about 10,000. It is said that the money is so much. The amount is limited. Who does more? Who Take a lot, and build roads. For these countries, they just need to levy some unpaid labor to do. The empire gave yellow, orange, and orange gold coins."
"As long as you are not a fool, you know that this transaction can be done. Some countries may have a desire to take advantage, but they will soon discover that others can indeed get more gold coins, and they will follow suit. Of!"
"Speaking of speaking, it's so complicated, it's actually just paying someone to build the road for you?" Palschenna said with a moved expression. "Although I don't know what the final result will be, I can feel it. , If this road is built, it will be a miracle!"
"It will indeed be a miracle"
The fat man came to the river and sighed slightly, staring at the river shining in the sun,
"This road will traverse the entire Central Europe and connect the East and the West. This isolation barrier that has burned for a century of war between the hegemony of the East and the West has opened its doors to the empire for hundreds of years. The obstacles to the business road that block things will disappear because of this road. If it is really repaired, this road will definitely become a major artery-level main road on the land. Such a miracle, if it is really calculated according to the labor cost, 20 million gold coins. I'm afraid that even one-third of the wages is not enough"
The fat man smiled wickedly. "But the empire does not lose money. The imperial caravan has been exempt from tax for 30 years. The entire Central European Baro at least superficially supports the empire. The most important thing is that the empire’s military power cannot be large. Stationed in Central Europe for a long time, with this main road across Central Europe, the cavalry of the Empire can reach the capital of any kingdom of Central Europe within half a month, which can greatly reduce the imperial reserve. Under the pressure of the above-mentioned, it only takes 50,000 to 100,000 elites to station in the northern part of Congo, and they can achieve the force of deterring the entire Central Europe and Baro!"
"Unexpectedly, one road would make you worth it! If those countries know the truth, they don't know what kind of expression it will be!" Palschena listened interestingly, smiled at the corners of her mouth, and sat on the platform Go up, take off your shoes, revealing the white and tender feet under the skirt, swaying the clear river water easily and freely,
The high priest of the temple, who has been less than a month since leaving office, has completely let go of the shackles on her body. Here, she can talk and laugh, and can talk to this man about some questions about the empire at will~IndoMTL.com~ also Don’t worry about the suspicion of interfering with the state policy of the empire. This is a place where neither the secular kingship nor the theocracy will interfere.
"If you don't say it, I don't say it, who would think of this!"
The fat man raised his eyebrows and was full of spirits. He said with a hint of cold arrogance at the corners of his mouth. "Even if you really have that kind of thought, there is no extra thought to think about it now, because the empire has declared war on Eberros, although it's just a Local war, but enough to attract everyone’s attention"
"Declare war? Are you planning to adopt a peaceful way? Why!" Palschenna stood up with a cold face. She was too aware of the understatement of the declaration of war by the man in front of her. It was the iron horseshoe of the empire to conquer everything. It's a sea of blood!
"There is no reason to be the boss, you have to tell the younger brother below that you have money, you have a knife, and you disturb the important private meetings of the imperial emperor and the imperial high priest. Does this count?"
In July, the war between the Empire and the Kingdom of Eberros broke out, (to be continued...)
