Power and Empire Chapter 2562: Imperial Wind (37)
2562 Empire Gale (37)
Falcon Empire, Kyoto, Red Palace, rain water pattered on the street, splashing crystal clear water
Through the window of the room, you can see the black armor of the Imperial Guard standing guard outside looming in the white rain, and the cold blade at the front of the spear reflects a kind of cold light. The dark red Imperial Red Palace is the center of the Empire’s power. , Is called the Scarlet King Palace by the outside world. In the eyes of outsiders, the Imperial Red Palace points to the top of the sky like a sword, showing the empire’s ambition to control the entire Obalo.
"The Fazerites this time sent Caruso, Minister of the Interior of the Kingdom, and proposed to exchange Luan Sock for peace with the empire. What do your Majesty think of such conditions?"
Mao Mona's green figure turned back from the window. The first princess of the empire was originally the foundation of the beauty of the snow mountain. The slender figure is exquisite and feminine against the long and delicate dark green dress. In the past few years, the slap face that has become more and more melon-shaped, such as if the sharpened chin reveals a confident, noble and arrogant temperament, but the flow of eyes brings out a trace of aggressive pressure, and looks at the fat man very affectionately
" Such a condition cannot meet the needs of the empire, so this document cannot be signed. "The fat man closed the document on the desk casually, and Mao Mona came to the fat man in a graceful footstep, looking over the fat table. The vetoed document looked slightly surprised, charming, mature and dignified, and all kinds of temperament were perfectly integrated on the delicate face of Yiaiyixi. He was quite tall, a little taller than the fat man. For a long time, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Empire was in the original aura. Above, there is more understanding of the human world. After considering the overall situation of the empire, he hesitated for a while, and Mao Manaqing said curiously, "I thought that your majesty has always been inevitable for Luansok, so there is no such thing. When he raised objections, His Majesty also mentioned that if Luansok can be obtained, His Majesty is confident that it will become the largest trading port in the southern part of Obaro."
" Hehe, what are the virtues of the Fazer people. The reason why Luansok is now brought out is entirely because the value of Luansok is not as good as before, although it is the name of the largest port in the northern part of Fazer In the most prosperous period, it was almost known as the second Lisbonto, but since the last time it was bombarded by the Imperial Navy, the economy suffered a heavy blow. The Imperial Navy blocked the port, and the Fazer Sea merchants in Luansok lost their money. What a prosperous scene, it’s already a yellow flower yesterday, there is no ocean trade"
"Merchant ships can’t get out of the sea. This large port in the north of Fezer is a dead port, and the Feize people throw Luan Sock, which is something else. "The fat man’s face doesn’t say anything," and Feize people proposed After Luansok, I immediately let the Intelligence Department know that Luansok is far worse than expected. Compared with the original 300 ships at the highest peak, there are now only less than 20 ships left. Ship, not even one tenth"
"And most of these twenty ships are still abandoned old scraps. Because the cost of leaving the port is too high, they were abandoned by the original owner. Because they are too close to the imperial coastline, the imperial navy’s battleships are almost Every day is to lean outside the port of Luansok. Even if it is the best golden port, it is a trouble for everyone to avoid at this moment. On the contrary, it is Faze who is not allowed to stop the imperial military operations in Luansok. If the 50,000 garrison army is not pushed to Luansok, the daily consumption of materials is not a small number. There is no benefit at all, and it needs to be constantly filled. Even if the Fazer royal family has cared about Luansok, it will Send it out!"
"Other pictures?"
Mao Mana’s beautiful eyes blinked. She was in charge of the internal affairs of the empire, which included the development of the empire’s commerce. Therefore, it is not completely ignorant of Luansok. If this southern port falls into the hands of the empire, It can echo the southern business center of Lisbon Toyao and become a super port with a huge throughput. Logically speaking, the Faiz people took the initiative to serve the empire this time, and gave their favor to the empire, sending the largest port in the north as a negotiation condition. Whether it is from the aspect of face or benefit, it can be said that it is in the arms of the empire, so even she did not expect that the fat man would veto it without hesitation,
"According to the news, Faize’s country is now clamoring for eastward warfare, especially the rapid expansion of the Paput Kingdom’s strength, which shakes Faize’s country. Now Faize is trying his best to mobilize troops above the boundary of Chen Bing, just because I have been worried that the empire will intervene through this, so it has not been issued. Now, waiting for the signing of the empire agreement, you can attack the Kingdom of Paput with all your strength. What I call is to bring justice to the dependent country. In fact, I want to open up the road. The road to the east!
"A dead port, which can be exchanged for the economic vitality of the dead, can give the empire a word of truth, and cannot intervene in Paput's disputes. This business is not an ordinary bargain!" The fat man paused, and took over Mao Mo. Na Qing handed over a glass of iced wine, and smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth. "I know the scheming of the Fazer people. The main reason is that the southern situation has been out of control since the defeat of the Erot Empire. In order to expand his strength, he tasted the sweetness of Papp. The Kingdom of Tehran has been taxing domestic taxes for 30 years and seven or eight mines, and it has completely given the Rilangcheng area to the empire. Such a crazy move seems to completely put the country’s economy in the hands of others, but in fact However, a situation in which Paput and the Falcon Empire are closely linked has been formed invisibly."
"The Fazerites are now throwing rats, Faize wants to move Paput, but he has to consider the attitude of the Empire! Paput’s interests are the interests of the Falcon Empire, and the Paput Kingdom is only a second- and third-rate It’s one thing to think of him as a small country. Facing the big country Fize, he must bow his knees to the big country. You need to be a woman to win you over. Now, relying on the more powerful Northern Falcon Empire, the waist is a lot harder. "
"Although the material mines were signed to the empire, the support they received was genuine, and the empire would not point fingers at Paput’s state affairs. King Paput was very clear about Paput’s strength and wealth. , Wanting to rise in this once-in-a-lifetime chaos in the south, without a strong background, will only become the target of other countries' engulfing. As for the argument that the economic lifeline is in the hands of the empire, Paput also has to ask himself. Ask, can a little Paputt make the Falcon Empire attractive?"
"His Majesty also asked the Imperial Bank to fully support Paput, in case Feize disregards the imperial attitude and attacks Paput, I am afraid Paput has no strength to fight back."
After listening to the fat man’s explanation, Mao Mana’s green face showed a slight relief, and she roughly figured out what was going on. As one of the great powers in the south, the Kingdom of Fazer, a century-old overlord of the west coast, is a powerful hòu, and it is a zhan in the north and south. Although it was damaged, the impact on strength was not significant. Naturally, he could not sit back and watch his own country be eroded one by one. However, he was obviously not sure about starting a war with the Falcon Empire. After proposing peace talks, Feize then attacked Paput with all his strength and hunted. The Eagle Empire will at least not directly use combat troops to intervene. Only a Paput that has suddenly strengthened in a short period of time, regardless of its background or combat effectiveness, even if it increases several times, it will not be the opponent of the veteran overlord Fei Ze. This also makes Mao Manna green. Where I was confused, Paput and the Fazer Kingdom were very different in power. According to the fat man's eyes, how could he not see it? What is the point of fostering such a small second-rate country by the empire?
"Haha, if you want to say that Paput will fail, I believe that it may not be necessary to say that Paput is completely powerless"
"Paputt has loaned a total of 5 million yuan several times. The standing army has expanded from less than 50,000 to 150,000. The armaments are even supplied by the empire, reaching a sophisticated standard. Such military strength, even if it is not. Among the great powers, it has also entered the ranks of the first-tier countries in the south, so that the Paput Kingdom can reap the benefits of the first military operation and once again aggressively attack another vassal state of the Fezer Kingdom after only one month. Nan'an is rich, and Fei Ze, a great country that used to be aloof, faced Paput’s aggressiveness, and he could only watch it temporarily. If you were the monarch of the south, you saw a weak and small country going into the country overnight and quietly entered. The ranks of the first-tier countries, even if they know that method is endlessly troublesome, they will be excited. What I want is such a situation. What I want to shake is not only the current chaos in the south, but also more popular aspects. I want the monarchs of the southern countries to crane their necks one by one, secretly wondering to what extent they should be able to develop if Paput is replaced by himself, and wondering if he can take Papua if he depends on the big tree of the empire. Putt further?"
"That said, your majesty should not be involved in the Paput dispute"
Hearing the fat man said that Paput would fail, Mao Mannaqing knew the whole answer, but Paput had too many connections with the empire's interests. Is it true that he watched Faize annexing Paput in this way? This is definitely not in line with Fatty’s usual style. From the bottom of his heart, Maomao Naqing does not want the empire to intervene in the Paput dispute. The empire has expanded too rapidly, especially in the past two years, where hundreds of thousands of conference battles have been frequent. The empire’s commercial wealth was abundant, but the basic agriculture was very ordinary. In every war, the army moved forward, and the carriage for transporting materials and food was never cut off. Even if the empire is vast, this pressure is also putting the empire on The internal affairs were stretched, but fortunately, his Majesty stopped the momentum of continuing attacks after the Battle of Istanbul, otherwise Mao Manaqing would not know whether the logistics of the empire could be sustained
As the empire’s giant war machine is operating at full capacity, many of the original problems have been ignored. Now that the empire has entered a period of peace, these problems have become prominent. Since the empire entered Oubaro, it has been laid down. In the northern Gaul region and Central Europe, although vigorously developing infrastructure, restoring damaged fields, and migrating people to the desolate areas after the war, what can be done at present is only to restore normal and peaceful life in most areas. To become the empire’s rear granary is still not a task that can be completed in a short time
The empire has stopped fighting since last winter. For more than half a year, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Empire has carefully cleaned up the government affairs and development of the occupied areas of the empire, re-divided the empire area, and injected a large amount of empire funds into the north of the empire. The northern part of the Gaul Empire originally belonged to the Gaul Empire. After more than two years of peaceful and war-free recuperation, the destroyed farming and economy have been restored to a certain extent. When the autumn wind in August blows through the vast hills of the Gaul Plain, it is yellowish. The waves of wheat are rolling in the wind. In the south of the empire, the liberalized non-northern region has become the immigration area of a large number of migrants in Central Europe. On the vast and fertile land, cities and towns have risen. In the non-southern part of the country, the prosperous maritime trade supported by Lisboa allowed the entire southern economy to recover rapidly. Under the expansion of the influence of the empire, the countries of Central Europe and Baro have begun to regard themselves as vassals of the empire. At this time, the Falcon The empire is extremely powerful militarily, prosperous in business, and has a population of over 250 million.
The main sources of finance and taxes are still concentrated in the mainland of Ikadiva and the northwest and southwest regions. Even if the empire issued the largest migration order last month, the fertile and vast north of Congo has finally opened its doors to the whole of Obalo. Good land policies were used to attract refugees in the Obama area who were turbulent due to the war, but the effect was not very satisfactory. Although it has a population of more than 200 million and has vast and fertile land, it still forms a large area due to the war. The barren zone is the biggest problem that the empire needs to face at present. The areas where the empire has developed are mainly concentrated in the coastal areas, and they are mainly commercial. The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the empire, led by Mao Manaqing, is already operating at full capacity. , It is still overwhelmed by various problems. Fortunately, the empire is a country with military power. Under the suppression of the empire’s military, these contradictions in the empire have not caused major turmoil
At this point, Maomao Naqing believes that Fatty knows better than herself. For the entire Obaro continent, Fatty is the **** of the empire, the commander of a million empire cavalry, and a fearsome king, but only herself. Knowing that the empire was able to reach this point and was not overwhelmed by military expansion, but became stronger and stronger. To a large extent, it was because the fat man was always able to hold the reins of the empire’s hideous chariot at critical moments~IndoMTL .com~ This man with the eyes of a falcon is sitting in the driver’s seat of an imperial chariot,
" The empire will not intervene in the Paput dispute. The Paputans want to tie the empire to a carriage as a precedent, and they must not open it! Otherwise, the empire will fall into the quagmire of the south by itself, and talk about what chaos. Take advantage of it!"
The fat man glanced at Mao Manaqing, thinking that this beautiful woman had been handling the empire’s heavy domestic affairs for her own sake, and she couldn’t help but feel a trace of distress.
He stood up and came to the window, looking at the light of the corridor outside the Red Palace, it was particularly cool, looking through the window at the drizzle outside with the wind, making a crackling sound, although not very big, but enough Disturbed the master’s dream, and said
" As for whether Paputt will be annexed, don’t worry about this. From the Feize people’s visit, you can see that the Feize people have lost their spirit. Even if they win in the end, they will at most The original area was taken back. We did not sign a peace treaty, and Fazer did not dare to really enter Paput!"
The corners of the fat man’s mouth turned up slightly, revealing a smile, "I have a lot of information about Feize’s country in the last three months, from the upper-level meetings of Feize’s country to the banquets of Feize’s nobles. Although Ze has condemned Paputt, he still lacks the courage to go to war with the empire. He can fight Pratt, but he can take advantage of the empire, but he can't! "
At the end of the year, it really was the most upsetting time. Various inspections, summaries, and was sent out for business trips. Hey, the full attendance this month is hopeless. I haven't seen you for a few days. Everyone has been waiting for a long time.
