Power and Empire Chapter 3268: The war is back (4)

The wind and snow rushed to the face, a small caravan slowly bought the border of the province of Porto Hérault, entered this completely different area in front of us, and rode on a camel with a head wrapped around it. The vicissitudes of old man with a flax long handkerchief looked at the earth in front of him sharply, the traces of the war still remained. The ruined villages and towns do not look much different from other northern areas of Hérault. The caravan moves forward slowly. Although the camels and horses are loaded with things that look like goods, everyone inside is wary. , Is full of sturdy wildness, more than half of the people still hold weapons in their hands, and even in a few carriages behind, there are more than a dozen blood-stained injured people lying down, looking like they have passed through extremely tragic The fight has been so common

"Everyone can relax, this should be the Empire area, even the sect army dare not do anything to us!" A middle-aged man dressed up as a mercenary with a thick appearance and a stout body turned towards the team. Shouted, the people in the team breathed a long sigh of relief when they heard his shouting

"Atia, are you sure that the sect army will not come here!" The old man on the camel withdrew his gaze from the surroundings and asked in a condensed voice.

"I've been lurking in Port Eero for more than half a year, and I can definitely guarantee this." The middle-aged man saluted the old man on the camel with a respectful expression. It also detoured from the Eero port area, not to mention the fact that the power of the sect army in the north of Eero has been greatly weakened, otherwise, how could the sect send the entire Eero port area to the empire.

"That's good!" The old man nodded. At this moment, news came from the scout in front of the caravan, and the team immediately became nervous again when they saw someone in front.

"Don't worry, it should be the Erot prisoner of war!" The strong man Etia said with embarrassment,

"Be careful is always better." The old man appeared very cautious. Soon, as the caravan slowly moved forward, a scene of the spreading and unfolding of the earth appeared in front of everyone, and indeed a broad fragment appeared in front of everyone. Shilu, a large number of people who seemed to be prisoners of war gathered there, but what surprised and incredible the caravan was most. A large number of Eero prisoners of war are building roads. These Eero prisoners of war appear to be quite loose. The guards of the Imperial soldiers just stand far away and chat to the sky. They don't seem to worry about these Eero people escaping. On the contrary, they are not being supervised. Under the circumstances, the Eero prisoners of war did their own work in full swing

'"Are these Eero people crazy! Don't you know how to escape!" Someone in the caravan whispered, "I'm afraid I will kill if you catch it, so I dare not run." It's too weird. If you didn't see it with your own eyes, you would really think it was a fairy tale. The surroundings were so vast that the empire guards almost didn't bother to control the terrain, and no one could run away!

"They can’t run. In fact, it’s useless to run, because the entire northern part of Eero is occupied by the sect army. On the contrary, the empire area is the safest, and they don’t need to run away. They have enough food every day. Drink it well, and get your salary. As long as you finish building the road, you can go home safely. Who will run!"

Etia said with a wry smile, his companions knew little about the empire, but this was no way. They had always stayed in the southern part of the ecclesiastical state all year round, and were brutally murdered in the ecclesiastical temple. The knight hunted down and was hungry. Most of the news from the outside world was closed. Sometimes I heard some, and it was only passed because of too much influence. Seeing the stunned faces of his companions, Etia couldn't help but think of herself. When I came to Puerto Elero half a year ago, I made a lot of jokes too

"After the road is built, you can go home and give back food and drink... In this case, you really don't have to run!"

As the leader, the face of the old man is a little dazed, and there are such rules, which are simply unheard of,

Since entering the Puerto Hérault province area, the old man has been very careful about everything he saw along the way. This is the first time he has personally contacted the imperial area. Although he has heard of the prosperity of the imperial area before, that Mainly the empire itself, and this is only part of the northern part of the Eero area that the empire has just designated for management, and has just experienced the spread of a war of hundreds of thousands of people, has basically returned to normal, although the road is still a bit bumpy, but Compared with the large ruins of other areas in the north of Hérault, this is already quite a lush place. In the mountains or in the woodland, a large number of workers are cutting trees and quarrying stones, and caravans are constantly coming and going

"There are so many people..." the old man murmured in a low voice

"These are the workers and caravans who rebuilt the port of Eero," said Etia. "With the end of the war, the people of the port of Eero returned to the port and started the reconstruction of the port. This is a huge The empire paid a very high salary for the project, and renewed the rules for the port of Eero. The outline of the city was three times larger than the original port of Eero, and it appeared in the northern area of ​​Eero. This area also Designated by the Empire as the newest province of Puerto Elero, the population of other areas near El Puerto, attracted by high wages and the empire’s unique land policy, converged towards Puerto Elero. Many of them have suffered from education. There are as many as 600,000 to 700,000 refugees in the area that the regiment has swept over."

"Six hundred to seven hundred thousand!" There was a sound of inhalation in the caravan

"With so many people, eating and drinking every day is a big problem, can the empire be able to feed it?" Some people also asked that this huge number is already the number of most ethnic groups for them, and now Here, there is only the labor force who built a city in the empire. The huge gap between them not only shocked them, but even the old man was silent

Is there a lot of six to seven hundred thousand? Others may have little knowledge, but the old man who is the leader of the tribe knows that just half a month ago, it was in Rutiazi Fort, less than a hundred miles from the back of the port of Eero. The sect army and the main force of the Eero Empire In a general battle in the United States, the total force of the two parties involved was more than 400,000. After that, the Eroti ** team attacked the Eeroport under the control of the empire, and it was another 100,000 troops.

According to this calculation, the elite army of over 500,000 has fought violently in this area. Compared with this, 600,000 or 700,000 civilians are nothing. Of course, the most terrifying thing is still under the control of the empire. During the Battle of Eero, the Imperial Navy covered Eero’s port with fierce fire from naval warships, causing more than 30,000 Eero soldiers to be killed on the spot, more than 20,000 disabled and captured, and more than 20,000 missing forever. That's right, it was missing, because there were too many broken limbs, and there was no way to piece it together, and it ended up being missing! Among them was the command layer of the Erotung Army that was destroyed by the mass regiment, and the remnant army was then killed by the imperial cavalry all the way, causing countless casualties, which eventually led to the destruction of King Erot by the sect army!

Compared with the real mainland power, I can only be regarded as a frog in the bottom of the well,

As the caravan continues to move forward, the scene in front of them is getting more and more incomprehensible. It’s not that the refugees have always been the source of turmoil. The influx of hundreds of thousands of refugees, the entire Port of Hérault area should be a whole Turbulence and decadence are right, but in front of you are patches of temporary settlements. Apart from seeing the imperial army wearing black armor along the way, there are more self-defense forces organized by the people of Heroport. These are just lightly dressed. The armor, the soldiers holding various light weapons in their hands, maintained the order of the regions well. Checkpoints appeared in front of them. After checking the caravan formalities, the roads were released.

"What's the matter, shouldn't it be that tariffs have been charged?" This was a fairly normal phenomenon, but it caused the people in the caravan to fry the pot

"Don't they check it carefully, even the blind can see that we are not a caravan!"

The low voice of discussion came into the ears of Aetia in front of him, and Aetia’s head was lowered in meaning, and he was afraid to look at the faces of people nearby. It was really embarrassing to be home. This is the empire. When was the empire? Those who have imposed tariffs, even if they are not caravans, will not be in charge of these checkpoints. They are only responsible for maintaining the order. Even if someone tells them that there are robbers nearby to rob the caravan, they will immediately hunt down these robbers. In fact, these Most of them are mercenary organizations that belong to the Imperial Chamber of Commerce, and they have good combat capabilities. The Empire has recruited mercenaries from the Imperial Chambers of Commerce in the name of maintaining order in the port of Eero. There are already more than 20,000 mercenaries, which can be regarded as an official background. Of civil armed forces!

One day later, the caravan finally saw the outline of the enlarged outer wall of the port of Eero ahead. Against the backdrop of the dark blue coastline, the sun did not hesitate to sprinkle all its rays on the surrounding wilderness. Bring boundless vitality. The snowy earth is pure, the sky is blue and blue, and the clouds are pure white and flawless. Everything in front of you looks like a condensed oil painting, quietly freezing the most beautiful moments

"The front is the port of Eero, the port of gold!" Aetia's eyes are shining. Although he has only been here for half a year, he feels that it is the most precious half of the year. Here he can live freely. You need to hide in Tibet, and no one will hunt him down because of his wounds. The empire’s all-inclusive national policy is equal to people of all nations and races. As long as they don’t engage in actions against the empire, half of the empire’s officials will not. To interfere with the normal rhythm of life

"Does that person really meet us?" The old man also looked forward with blurred eyes, his chest was a little ups and downs

"To be honest, I don't know, the other party took the initiative to find me!" Etia hesitated, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "The Knights Templar broke through the city of Blue Pond, and we were killed and injured, Boya. The adults have also been taken away. Several other tribes have begun to squeeze us out. We don’t seem to have a choice. In fact, I feel that if we have a choice, why don’t we leave the ecclesiastical state and come to Port Ero"

Port Herault, branch of the Sky Temple,

The snow-covered Port of Eero is white on one side, and on the other side has changed from azure blue to a deep blue sea. In the sun, it is like a huge flawless emerald, deep and breathtaking, Palschena is half-opened A white rose blooming in front of the window was folded down in front of the window. The fierce battle of Port Erot, although Palschena had not witnessed it with her own eyes, she had already heard about it, not to mention the broken Port of Erot is right in front of her. The Eero Port, which was completely blown to ruins by the Imperial Navy fleet, is obvious to all. It is said that on the same day, 50,000 to 60,000 Eero troops were covered by the Imperial Navy fleet at Eero Port. More than 20,000 people were killed in battle and disabled on the ground. The number of people hacked to death by the imperial cavalry after the shelling stopped is even more incalculable.

In the current port of Eero, even though the ground has been dug to a depth of seven or eight meters, it is still possible to see the splotchy red infiltrated with human blood. Thinking that these are all caused by her stubbornness, Palschenna's heart I felt entangled for a while. Originally, I wanted to save the port of Hérault, but I did not expect to be involved in the war, and it caused so many deaths.

If I had listened to persuasion to leave Port El Ero, wouldn’t it cause the next thing?

"What did Pudamia say to you?" The voice of the imperial emperor came from behind.

"Nothing was said, just some women's words." Palqinana sniffed the scent of white Liufang flowers, and said softly with the slightly upturned corners of her mouth." His Majesty Putami said, His Majesty’s first time When we met, she seemed to have a perverted charm for her, and I don’t know if it’s true."

The 30-year-old high priest of the temple is exactly the pinnacle and alluring posture of Yu Jie. Today, he deliberately followed the style of a woman in China and Biya. Damia mingled together, look, it's only a few days, it's the rhythm that the saint is going to turn into a witch, the cloud-like long hair is in a delicate bun, the straight and slender Qiong nose and Bright red and plump lips, skin white as if little exposure to the sun ~ IndoMTL.com ~ wrapped in a silver-gray Zhongbia style robe, the slender waist is in sharp contrast, plump and upright. The fat buttocks held the white dress tightly, and the two long, straight legs pushed on the dark red fawn leather boots.

"That woman must be crazy. The first time I saw her, I didn't even see her face clearly, where's so charming. "The fat man is so angry and funny

"It seems that His Majesty Putami has misunderstood her. In fact, Pope Putamia is not an ambitious woman as her Majesty said. It is precisely in the past few days that I can feel The faith of the other party is so firm. Although we believe in our respective gods, our pious hearts are the same." Palschenna turned around with a cold expression, and looked at the fat man whose eyes were staring at her, and the corners of her mouth were exposed. A faint smile

"Faith? That woman's faith or was a so-called **** before, but now it must be herself!"

The fat guy didn’t care about Palschenna’s resonance. Both were religious leaders and women. Who knew what the two women would talk about when they got together

If it’s the old Putamia, or can pretend to look like a priest, at least there is a bottom line. Now Putamia has already decided not to even have the bottom line in front of her. Determined to embark on the road of becoming the queen of the religious regiment country, it is completely shameless,

A female pope who was completely blackened by herself is quite terrifying, only a few days later, even Palschenna was infected! This time, after learning of the strange domestic atmosphere of the sect, in order to strengthen his own momentum, he was not allowed to invite the high priest of the imperial state church Palschena to meet in the name of the pope of the sacred state. In name, it was exchanges with each other, but in fact it was in the empire. This tiger flag has come to gain prestige for herself, and only Palschenna will be willing to be deceived. If she is herself, if she doesn’t take this opportunity to slaughter her, it’s rw.
