Power and Empire Chapter 319: The Electoral Controversy (8)


It's only morning. The sun hasn't come out yet. The bleak clouds seemed to be gathering. Occasionally, the roaring test introduced a slight noise. This year’s weather was particularly strange. I don’t know if it was a sequelae caused by the heavy snowstorm. The heavy rain in spring lasted until the end of April. This undoubtedly made the festive April hunting season before it started. Cast a layer of water color,

Many aristocratic boys and girls who have carefully prepared for the hunting season for two months are disgusted with this strange weather, because in such weather. Wiping a new bowstring will loosen easily because of moisture, and the falling rain will wash away the odor left by the prey, making the most sensitive hunting dog unable to track it.

Most prey will also hide deeply. Except for the empty tree poles and the unbearable mud in the entire forest, there will be no Shiduo. This will undoubtedly have a big impact on the results of the hunting season. The last week of April is the beginning of the hunting season. As time progresses, there are more and more complaints.

A black horse-drawn carriage travels on the wide plains of the southern suburbs of Kyoto. There is not much decoration on the horse's body. It is only embroidered with a unique shield-shaped coat of arms on the door and the rear baffle. Two knight's lances are crossed. On the pedestal, two lions with wings hold a golden crown together.

A pair of slightly pensive gazes were staring at the field in the distance, and began to sprout the wheat field. The green fields were like a soft carpet, and the fields were divided into one by the clear lines. The black ground is like being taken by a huge knife. Cut it neatly like a cake. This is the result of the farmers loosening the soil for the fields in accordance with the "Cultivation Law" issued by Samer. A group of people gathered on the river bank in the distance, and a wide canal stretched out from the edge of the river, galloping. The water of the Satsuma Li River is led into the surrounding fields by the canal, and it is docile like a little sheep.

"Honorable Lord Marquis of Samach, these are new measures enforced after the occupation of this place by the southern part of Samor, and all farmers must abide by it!"

The person in charge of Gang Erdian in Kyoto, Baron Nasaran pointed at the distant scenery, and pointed at the diversion channel that attracted the attention of the opposite Samach. "That's also the case. The southern Samor occupied this place last year. Later, all the army and farmers were mobilized. It took a winter to cultivate land along the river and build diversion channels here. There are at least thousands of medium diversion canals like this in the south, and almost every village has them. The special instructor is responsible for farming affairs in this area.

"Oh! Every village has it?" Baron Nasaran's words touched the nerves of the opposite Swadian envoy, Marquis Samach. This time, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People’s Republic of China sent him as a special envoy for negotiations to execute the orders of the Ministry of Military Affairs. , The Marquis of Samach also has a unique task, which is to collect information about the Vikya people,

The defeat of the Battle of De Heim caused a shock among the senior leaders of Miao Erdian. Although De Heim was only a marginal province in the west, the defeat of the Sixth and Eighth Knights had to let the people of Miao Erdian. With a cautious look, he re-examined his eastern neighbors. It was very dark. The Marquis of Samach looked up at the black rain clouds that had accumulated in the distance. He put down the curtain in his hand with a gloomy expression, and looked carefully at the opposite Baron Nasaran, the person in charge of Inerdian Kyoto. A breath was squeezed from the nose, and his voice was low and said, "Do you know what my mission is for Vikia this time?"

Nasalan shook his head with a puzzled expression, "I just received a notice from the Military Affairs Department that you are coming to Cristoforo, my lord, and ask me to cooperate with you!"

"Hehe, Boshun is still so good-faced." The Marquis of Samach smiled bitterly, and in front of the puzzled Nasaran, he placed a secret document with the seal of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the table of the carriage,

The Marquis of Samach pointed to the secret letter with a weird face, "This is the mission sent by the military department. As my assistant, you are qualified to know the contents of this secret document!" Nasaran hesitated to pick up Confidential, spread out slowly with your hands, immediately swollen eyes

"His" Nasaran took a breath. His face was pale, and the letter in his hand fell on the table. "How could this be possible, how could this be possible! Why should we cede Dherim! Our legion, our army?"

"It's over, it's over! The Sixth Knights and the Eighth Knights were destroyed, Lord Appleton died in battle, and Lord Eke, the General Secretary of the South, was captured! Lord Tarmezi, the commander of the Eighth Knights, surrendered. There is no extra army in the entire south to punish these robbers!"

The Marquis of Samach shook his head helplessly, put away the letters on the table, his eyes flashed with pain, and he took this heavy secret in his hand. Samach had a kind of burnt by fire. Pain. That came from my heart. This is Miao Erdian’s first land-cancement book in recent years, and the weight can be imagined.

"What? How could this happen!, Little Nasaran has a dull face. He has been staying in Kyoto. This is the first time he has heard of this, but he still doesn't give up on our other troops. Second, Fourth, isn’t the Fifth Cavalry and Tenth Regiment in the south? What about them? Are they also defeated?"

The Marquis of Samach raised his head and looked at Nasaran, who looked excited, his voice affirmed, "You should have heard that, the kingdom is fighting against the Rudd in the south! The situation is not very good for us, the kingdom has been mobilized. Most of the southern army, not only in the south, but also in the middle, is empty. In Dehrim, the Vikya people have gathered 100,000 elite troops. If they continue to move forward, our main force on the front You have to choose to retreat, and the entire Satu Promenade’s defense line will collapse. His Majesty the King took this into consideration," he made a painful choice! It is completely worthwhile to trade a remote and fringe province in exchange for the safety of the kingdom and the victory of the Satu Corridor! "

"It's not that the Third Knights have cut off the rudder's food base? The rudder who loses supplies will soon be defeated! We are about to win. Nasaran looked excited and waved off. In the words of the Marquis of Samach, he repeatedly asked, "Why do you want to cede Dherim? Do our heroic Knights of Miaoerdian still fear a small country like Wichia? .

"Baron Nasaran! Please pay attention to your disrespect to His Majesty the King!" Marquis Samach's face was slightly angry, and a flash of pain flashed in his eyes. The excited Nasaran in front of him was the same as his behavior when he received this order. It was an anger that had forgotten the distinction of identity, like a volcano explosion. I used to feel this way

Damn coward, fool Boshun! Samaki secretly scolded the Minister of Military Affairs who was assigned to him with a bitter mouth. At that time, Boshun was scolding him like this, but he didn't expect it was his turn to do it now! Samaki wanted to tell the excited Nasaran that it was our Ineldian who was cut off to support us, not the ruders, but considering Nasaran's agitated behavior just now, he had to swallow it.

Nazaran was taken aback by the scolding, and then he realized that he had said something that shouldn't have been said, his face flushed, and after a long time, he calmed down and sat back on his seat with an awkward expression. Repeatedly apologized, "I'm sorry, Lord Marquis Samach, I was so excited just now, my subordinate was too gaffey!"

Samaqi waved his hand to Nasaran. Regarding Nasaran’s gaffe, Samaki naturally couldn’t really hold him accountable. He said in a low voice, "Let’s talk about the situation in Vikia. This is for us. This task is very important"

Nazaran saw that the Marquis of Samach did not pursue his own meaning, and he sighed with relief, "The situation in Vikia is very delicate now. Since the rise of the south, the whole of Kyoto has been under threat from the south!" Lan straightened the messy clothes and corners of her body, and continued, "The Khergit War of the previous year disrupted the domestic pattern of Wikiah. According to the original plan, the Northern Steian family we supported should become the strongest Wikiah during the war. The big power eventually replaced the current Vikya royal family, but the southern part of Samor

"Samoor?. Samaki broke Nasaran's words, and then said, "Let’s introduce the situation of Samor. To be honest, I am also very interested in Samor who can defeat our Miaordian army. , The withdrawal of the coalition forces from the Satu corridor to the occupation of Dehrim, this little lord who only belongs to the southern part of Vychia, has done too many things that surprised us.

"My lord, you mean Fat Samor?" Nasaran has a weird face~IndoMTL.com~ Regarding the legendary figure of Vicia, Nasaran, an outsider, has heard the name from countless people. He is wise. Brave, fearless, invincible. He is stupid and careful, his behavior is crude, and he has no manners at all. This is an extreme. People who love him call him the **** of war, and there are many people who hate him. Fat Samor has a slanderous title. , These people brought to Kyoto

Nazaran has never been to Riwading, nor has he seen Fat Samor himself. Regarding the various versions of the outside world, Nasaran does not know how to answer, and can only rely on what most people in Kyoto know. . Introduced several major events from the rise of Samer to the defeat of the private army in Kyoto. After listening to Nasaran's introduction. Samaki fell into a long silence, and the carriage shook suddenly,

"My lord, Kleis is here." The coachman’s voice came from the front, and outside came the sliding sound of Fenglun stopping

The city guard of Kyoto looked at the coat of arms on the carriage door curiously. No one knew that the coat of arms belonged to that family. The captain of the city guard looked at the crown in the hands of the lion carefully. The crown was of the highest rank. Heraldry, only the royal family is eligible to use it in Vikia,

Could it be... the captain of the city guard shuddered and ran forward quickly, bending over to the person in the carriage and asking, "Excuse me?"
