Power and Empire Chapter 2489: Thunderstorm (9)

Please enter the text. In the early morning, the personal servant tremblingly awakened the sleeping deputy of the Fazer Kingdom Military Affairs Ministry Kurusdi "My lord, come from the palace, hold an emergency meeting"

"Emergency meeting? Is something wrong with the war ahead?"

The fifty-year-old Kurusdi took an unexpected look outside. It turned out to be a dark sky. The war ahead has already allowed the military department to operate at full capacity. Not to mention the 200,000 troops isolated in Paput, but the central part. The more than 100,000 Fezer troops confronted by the coalition forces, and the large amounts of rations and materials consumed every day, make Kurusdi’s hair a lot of white.

"It's the Imperial Guard, it seems that something terrible has happened." The personal servant handed over a hot towel,

&:Pig:Pig:Island:Novel 3w.onbsp;"What a great thing?" Kurusdi's eyebrows were slightly frowned together, took off the washed white military uniform from the hanger, and walked to In the hall, you can see a bright fire in front of the hall. On both sides of the road, there are palace guards with red and white long tassels hanging down to the waist on both sides of the road.

"Kurusdi Lord", an officer of the Janissary Guard saw him and immediately walked over, stood at attention and saluted.

"What's going on?" Kurusdi nodded to the officer of the Guards, and asked with a serious look. Although the opponent is the Royal Guards, in Fezer, the military has always been weak. Completely obey the royal authority

"My lord, we have just received a secret report that the six southern vassal states have rebelled together." The officer took a deep breath and said with a cold face." Your Majesty has just issued a blockade order and ordered the Guards to arrest all six southern vassals. The figures of the vassal relations ""What, how can the southern vassals rebel?" Klusti's heart bursts, or feels very bad, Fazer's current situation is already quite embarrassed, although he still maintains the war. An optimistic situation, but in reality. As the undersecretary of the military affairs department who manages the kingdom’s forces, Kurusdi knows very well that the kingdom’s forces have been unknowingly drew to an almost empty level. The entire kingdom has a standing army of 500,000 and 200,000 is deeply trapped in the Paput area. Two hundred thousand confronted the central coalition forces. Most of the rest are on the coast to deal with the pressure from the Northern Falcon Empire. The Ministry of Military Affairs has just submitted a report on the recruitment of troops to the King, but His Majesty has not responded yet. The southern vassals actually rebelled at this time. What's going on?

"The specific situation is not clear to the subordinates. Please let the adults get in the car!" The Guards had a weird face and made a please gesture, which obviously meant to say. It’s not convenient here, if adults want to know, they can get in the car and ask again

"Okay" Kurusdi gave a dry cough and walked to the carriage parked outside. As soon as he closed the door, he saw a group of guards with torches rushing into the opposite side of his house like wolves. A mansion of a southern vassal nobleman soon heard a scream and a sharp weapon hacking into the body.

Kulusti knows the owner of that mansion, a duke of the southern vassal kingdom. It’s an old man who has lived in King Fazer’s capital for twenty years. He was personally received by Kurusdi. It would be a joke to say that this person is rebellious. The number of Fei Zewang's capital is definitely not small. Along the dark long street, there were torches in their hands everywhere, and the Guards broke in in the name of searching for rebellion. On a corner of the street, Kurusdi saw more than a dozen headless corpses lying in a pool of blood. The **** scene made his eyebrows frowned, and the sound of dog barking came from the dark streets around him. But soon it became a sudden silence,

"If it's all handled like this, then a lot of people will die tonight" Kurusdi said inwardly, "How did the Southern Rebellion be confirmed?" Kurusdi lowered the curtain of the carriage and asked his doubts. As the undersecretary of the army, he didn't know about the Southern Rebellion. How did His Majesty the King, who lives in the deep palace, know about it?

"My lord, remember that some time ago, I reported that 11 important material warehouses of our army were destroyed." The guard officer's voice paused, and he looked out the window and said that he was the only one in the carriage. He and Kurusdi are two people, so I have less scruples when talking,

Actually, the officers of the Janitor Guards were also very pleased. In Feize, the Janitors belonged to the royal family, not to the military. It was just that Feize established the country for hundreds of years. The place where the children of the nobles compete for backgrounds is either in terms of seniority. The general positions of the Imperial Guard have always been occupied by several branches of the royal family. The average Imperial Guard officer can climb to the rank of captain throughout his life. It’s to the top, and this Janissary Guard officer is already a squadron captain. If you want to step up to the general level, you have to turn to the military.

The transfer of the Royal Guards into combat troops is not without practice, but the premise is that the military must agree to accept it. As the undersecretary of the Kingdom’s military department, Kurusdi has an extraordinary weight in the military. If you can With a good comment from an important military minister like Kurusdi, the road from the Janissaries to the military will be much smoother

After all, in the Fei Ze military world, although the Guards have a good face, they are actually looked down upon. They wear gorgeous uniforms and hold brilliant weapons in their hands. But they have never been on the battlefield in their entire life. To a certain extent, Fazer’s royal guards are not combat troops. Their responsibilities are more to protect the safety of the king and use them as honor guards in major celebrations. That’s why they have grown to be fancy enough but no practical value. Helmet on the waist,

There is even a joke in Feize’s military circles. If His Majesty sees anyone who is not pleasing to his eyes, he only needs to let the heirs of this family enter the Imperial Guard, and then basically declare that the heirs of this family have nothing to do with the military merits. A family without military merit, no matter how prominent it is, it will quickly be annihilated in the years.

"I know that. I didn't find out afterwards. It was due to the continuous rainy season, which caused the damage to the material warehouse itself?" Kurusti nodded, appreciating the favor of the guard officer. Seeing Kurusdi’s expression, the guard was already excited and unable to hold on to himself. Continue to say

"I heard that the false report was only made to cover up the facts. In fact, these eleven material warehouses were built by the servants of the southern vassal kingdom. These vassal servants deliberately did it, causing the kingdom to I have suffered heavy losses in such a difficult time." The guard officer’s tone was full of strong anger. "I have long heard that those southerners are not things. If it were not for the kingdom’s blessing, they would not have such peaceful days as they are now. Adults don’t need to do this. The humble southerners feel pitiful. The kingdom is so kind to them. Not only do they not know how to be grateful, but they also fight against the kingdom's orders. If they do not take decisive measures to deter, the consequences are unpredictable!"

"Humble Southerner?"

This word made Kurusdi a little bit astonished, and a guard officer with a sad and angry face was in front of him. He felt a touch in his heart. This guard officer must have felt very hurt. This is probably the attitude of most Feize people who heard about this incident. Sure enough, the information blockade of the southern vassal kingdom in China is very outstanding. In the minds of some Fazers, it is Fazer Kingdom that protects these southern vassals. Otherwise, these southern vassals would have been swallowed by all kinds of enemies. It is Fazer soldiers who are throwing blood on these southern vassal kingdoms, but these southern vassal kingdoms. What did the vassal do? Levying a little material is like killing them.

In fact, a few people know how severe Fazer’s exploitation of the southern vassal kingdoms is, because 80% of the food and supplies are sent to Fazer. How many people in these kingdoms starve to death and freeze to death every winter ? Only then was there a long line of transportation from the south to Feize, the luxury of the Feize nobility, and the Feize Kingdom, which still maintained more than half a million in the absence of commerce. Military strength, even against the Congolese empire in the north, there is no weak state power. How could the South, which has been suppressed by Fazer with little resistance, suddenly rebelled?

I thought of what the Janitor officer had revealed in my head. Kulusti's face suddenly darkened, and an amazing conjecture flashed through his mind, no way! His Majesty even did this kind of thing? Kurusdi took a deep breath, even he was shocked by this conclusion

The southern vassal rebellion is a farce directed and performed by His Majesty the King!

Suddenly identified the southern vassal rebellion, and quickly mobilized the Imperial Guard to strangle all the nobles in the southern vassal kingdom of King Fazer. This is nowhere to suppress the rebellion. Obviously, the current domestic supplies are very tight. In order to maintain the predatory measures taken to keep the frontline war from collapsing, His Majesty the King has already targeted these southern vassals, in order to express his interest in the Fezer Kingdom. Surrender. Every southern vassal kingdom has hostages in King Fazer’s capital, and even King Fazer owns a considerable amount of property. After more than a hundred years, the accumulated wealth can be imagined. If all is confiscated, it will definitely be a fortune. The rich and fortune that can support the continuation of the war! Even if the southern vassal kingdoms resisted fiercely, what use could it be under the weight of 200,000 Fei Zejun on the front line?

In the Palace of Fazer, among the cold and gorgeous column decorations, Kurusdi seemed to smell a scent of killing and blood. Since His Majesty raised the butcher knife to the southern vassals, it should have been With the follow-up method, Kurusdi took a long breath, and both sides of the promenade lined up with guards holding torches. On the long walkway leading to the conference hall, the palace soldiers with sharp weapons stood guard, cold, gloomy, and quiet. Only the heavy footsteps echoed, the flames swayed, and the shadows swayed. This feeling made people shudder,

"Kurusdi, you are late." King Fazer raised his head from the map he was examining, and looked at Kursdi who entered the chamber, bloodshot and haggard, let Kurusdi look. To be shocked

"It's not that I'm late, it's that your majesty's decision is surprising." Kurusdi looked around at the officers who looked forward. The whole chamber was like a headquarters, with a map on the wall and a few imperial guards. The staff of the staff was arguing with a coordinate pointing and pointing. A sand table of the southern vassal kingdom made of mud lies in the middle of the chamber~ IndoMTL.com~ with colorful flags on it

"It seems that you know, or I will stop talking nonsense!"

The king walked towards the sand table solemnly, took the pointer from a Janitor officer, and pointed to an area in the sand table "I will give you 50,000 people. In one month, how much food can you raise in the south?"

"Fifty thousand people?" Kurusidi was shocked, now the kingdom can still draw out fifty thousand people? I am the Deputy Chief of the Military Affairs Department who is responsible for the management of the army. Why don't I know! Unless Kurusti's face changes, is your Majesty the King crazy? With the virtues of the Janissaries, even the roots have long been rotten, can it be sent to fight? "You all go down first!"

King Fazer waved his hand to the officers around, and the officers quickly left. After all the officers were gone, King Fazer turned around, looked aggressively at Kurusdi and said, "I know you are here. What do you think, but these are the only reserve forces that can be mobilized in the kingdom at present. I will give you one month and do whatever you can do. I actually don’t want to do this, but there is no way. The treasury has less than two months of food in the north. The Falcon Empire in China cut off the food trade, and no one in the southern region trades with us. If there is no food in the south, it is not just a problem of starving people to death, but a problem of the collapse of hundreds of thousands of troops on the front line." To be continued.)
