Power and Empire Chapter 262: Kyoto opening scene

Use Kochli to follow Fat Nian to leave Lidastorf's mansion, with a strange expression in his eyes that he wants to ask but dare not ask, the fat man stopped at the entrance of the street in front of him,

South Street is one of the most prosperous streets in Riwading. There are still shops with lights hanging in the middle of the night, and the scattered fires spread to the distance. The carriages for transporting goods pass by the smooth stone road with creaking noises.

The fat man turned his head, his face calmly said, "Go ahead, I know you have something to ask me!"

Hu Keqili's face hesitated for a while, and he was puzzled, "My lord, that's a large amount of goods. Just hand it to the black hand Lidastorf. We are not too bad! And Kyoto is our fan. Why should we bring it into Kyoto by his hand! If this is spread out, wouldn’t it be a loss of our Samor’s face"

The fat man’s eyes shone brightly, and he smiled proudly, "You really think that the goods are so easy to take! According to the inspection by the Supervision Department, most of the goods are not available except some of them are cotton cloth. The hulled wheat seeds have full grains and good texture. They are the most suitable Nawen wheat for sowing in Kyoto. Guess, who is smuggling these wheat seeds in Kyoto? Who is in urgent need of these life-saving wheat seeds for this spring. Farming! Who needs food the most?"

Hu Keqili's face was dark, lost in thought. After a while, there was an exclamation, "It must be the royal family! The heavy snowstorm has frozen most of the wheat. They should be the people who need wheat the most. Spring grain farming is coming soon, but our material embargo undoubtedly makes them unable to obtain wheat at all. Kind, if I am a royal family, the only way is to smuggle wheat seeds from outside!"

"Haha! You are right! If you can think of this, it won't be futile to follow me for so long." The fat man smiled, took the whip from the guard behind him, and turned on his horse

"Since they want it, we will give it to them. If we let them find other channels, it will be more troublesome.

I asked the black hand to transport these steamed wheat seeds into Kyoto through smuggling channels. They are all wheat seeds that will not sprout. When the royal family responds, this spring plowing season has already passed and the planting season has passed. Hundreds of thousands of people in Kyoto will have no food this autumn"

The fat man sneered a few times, "Hehe! Didn't they want to expand the army? Didn't they want to revive the royal majesty? Without food, I see what they play! This matter involves a lot of things, not only involving the prestige of the Kyoto royal family, And it may also cause a famine in Kyoto. This has nothing to do with us Samor. It just happens that the greedy smugglers will go back. Anyway, they will be undocumented at the time. They can't say that we are in our own hands. On the site, smuggling is still needed!"

Hu Keqili suddenly realized, he sighed with emotion and said, "As an opponent of adults, it is really the sadness of the gang of nobles in Kyoto! Who would have thought that adults will not only be like a **** of war on the battlefield of smashing battles," Even these unremarkable trivial things can become a lore that determines future life and death as long as they pass the magic hand of an adult! The adult Zhuo said that the decisive factor for victory or defeat in a war is not the battlefield, but outside the battlefield, today his subordinates finally understand Your lord's words are profound!"

The fat man sneered, and raised the whip in his hand. "You are not taught, I don't know, but the skill of your **** is getting deeper." The fat man waved to the guard behind him and said, "Go" to the Supervision Department. ! I believe they should have found out who is hoarding the goods! "Take the cavalry guards to wrap around the wind and fog, and the fat man rides on the horse. Behind him is nearly a hundred Samor guards with full armor. They stand murderously on a hill outside the city of Kristol, Kyoto, in the distance in the morning. In the fog, the towering city wall of Kleistor was faintly visible, like a giant beast that swallows clouds and mist, with countless black spots coming in and out from there. This is the heart of Vicia, the center of the storm that is about to roll up. /

In late March, this is a season for long grass eagles to fly.

The fat man knew that the severe winter cold had completely receded, and the whole land regained its verdant spring, followed by the restoration of the royal family's unstoppable ambition.

In March, the Kyoto royal family, which believed that its power was so powerful, restored the old system and decided to hold a knight competition on April 3rd that represents the glory and authority of the royal family. As a memorial to this year's spring plowing season. Invitations for this knight contest are sent to lords all over the country, even Samor, who has never respected the knight tradition, is no exception.

After the invasion and civil war near the clams, and the fusion of blood and killing, Vicia has now shown a situation where the forces of the five sides are competing together. With the annexation of Dylans in the south and the destruction of the Tyre family in the east,

In the eastern, southern, and central-northern parts of the kingdom, except for the one in Kristol, Kyoto, the battle chess of the Samor Falcon is flying high,

In the cold and dry northern eight counties, the Duke of Stian’s Northern Duke’s family is looking forward to the Midwest ambitiously after gaining a foothold.

In the Battle of the Western Bazek Mountains in mid-March, the 23-year-old Steian Tuksa, the heir of the Steian family, defeated the 30,000 coalition forces of the Western Union with 5,000 northern heavy cavalry and captured the west. The important military fortress of Namorenburg threatened the heartland of the Western Union. Stefan Tuksa’s reputation is the same for a while, and he is hailed as another after Fat Samor

In the Murhausk region where the Vekia royal family secretly gave to Mildian, a family of the Duke of Murhausk with a Mildian background is emerging. With the support of Miao Erdian's two heavily armed groups. The mountain town of Sargerburg was captured from the Kujites, and the limelight even overshadowed Samor, who once defeated the leftback king.

It is the rapid rise of these rivals in the west and north that the fat man is not stunned and is willing to take huge risks. In the case of military exhaustion, snow disasters and natural disasters, I still set my mind to clear the Tyre family behind me,

It turns out to be worthwhile,

If the Tyre family and the royal family of Kyoto are united. With the addition of these northern forces that are eyeing Samor, Fatty has worked so hard to create a situation. I’m afraid it will soon turn into a pile of blood,

This time Fatty’s entry into Beijing was opposed by most of the Samor officers, but after repeated consideration, Fatty decided to enter Beijing. Before the official break with the royal family, any unwise behavior would make Samor a force of all parties. Difficult excuses. Moreover, Samor can't always fight alone. The way of joining forces is not inferior to army fighting. Seeking a powerful northern ally is what Samor needs most now.

In order to make sufficient preparations, before entering the capital, the order of the Samor regiment was frequently issued. There were three northern troops on the outskirts of Kyoto. The main flag regiment had been equipped with first-level combat readiness, and the camp moved forward to Clystow. For fifty miles, once there is a war, you can suppress the city of Kyoto within half a day.

The longbow banner group composed of the Thornwa tribe of the Western Mountain Regiment has a thousand people stationed in the important town of Narun in western Kyoto. The main force is the sixth banner group and the eighth banner group with 15,000 people. They can join the support war to besiege Kyoto at any time.

The Ten Thousand Frontier Defence Forces in the northern territory of the Legion have also issued a combat readiness order, ready to meet any enemies who dare to attack. If there is a war in Kyoto, the Northern Frontier Defence Force will be the first to face all possible hostile forces from outside. attack. Only by staying firmly on the northern line can the fat man enter Beijing with confidence,

In mid-March, Duhan, the deacon of Kyoto, secretly reported. The patriarch of the Stian family, the Duke of the North, and Stian Cousse accompanied thousands of guards into Beijing, the enemy of the Stian family, the leader of the Western Union, and the Marquis of Quint led a dozen lords and a squadron of guards into Beijing.

The mixed-blood Murhausk family also sent people to Kyoto, accompanied by the unidentified envoy of Inrdian. In late March, Kujit, who had just ended the war with Vía, sent to congratulate the envoy. The special envoy of the Rude people Suojugu Marquis came to Beijing.

As a landlord, Fat Samor was the last one to arrive in Kyoto. This time Fatty came to Kyoto and the last time he infiltrated Kyoto. This time it was an upright visit to Beijing in the name of the Southern Governor, except for hundreds of elite guards behind him. , And the 1,000 Guards who returned to Kyoto. Samor will return to Kyoto with a strong posture this time

The sound of horse hooves was crisp, and the fat man ran towards the gate of Kyoto with his guards, and the guards guarding the gate raised his head. Although I have seen too many big shots during this time. From the lord to the envoy, there are always more than a dozen people passing by every day,

But the strange cavalry that arrived in front of him still made him startled. The people with the all-colored silver armor pierced their eyes, and the horses were tall and strong. They were not comparable to the boasting cavalry dwarf horses in the cavalry camp. The cavalry's eyes were fierce, and there was an indescribable sense of depression on his body. It was like facing an unbreakable iron wall.

When his eyes fell on the cavalry's waist, the uniquely shaped long-handled saber, he couldn't help but shivered in his heart, "Samoor's guard saber!"

The guard’s eyes are full of fear~IndoMTL.com~ As a Kyoto native who is so close to Samor, he is familiar with the deeds of this legendary army, and I didn’t expect that I would have the opportunity to run into this one." "Reaper" troops

"My lord, please show your pass!" The guard said respectfully and cautiously. Behind him were hundreds of archers waiting for formation, except for the city gate in the middle that showed a slit for people to enter and exit. The other gates are closed. On the wide moat, only one wooden bridge was put down. The other wooden bridges are hanging high, which is completely prepared for war. The Samor Army’s assault capability is well-known throughout the continent, and Kyoto conservatives dare not sloppy

Since the Kyoto Protection Order, the defense of the Kyoto City Gate has mentioned the level of combat readiness, and all passing personnel need the Kyoto City Guard Pass. This is actually a desperate method used by conservatives to fight against business associations.

Conservatives want to express this way. Even if you have the Samor Pass, but don’t have the Kyoto Pass, you don’t even want to bring in the goods. This policy did fundamentally increase the separation of the Kyoto United Chamber of Commerce. Even old foxes like Duke Jones had to leave Kyoto sadly, but the consequences of this policy are also obvious. Because of the decline of commerce and trade, Kyoto’s just-recovered bustling scene seemed like a flash in the pan. Coupled with the embargo imposed by the Samor army, prices in Kyoto as a whole are extremely scarce. Even many small and medium-sized aristocratic families have fallen into a difficult situation in life. For conservatives, this kind of retreat. The practice of locking up the city has caused a lot of public grievances across Kyoto.
