Power and Empire Chapter 3599: Looking for the Holy Capital (5)
On the outskirts of the sacred capital, the white mist of early spring quickly melted in the early morning sunlight, as if to rebaptize the land that had been invaded by wars. The small town in front of you will give people two kinds of appearance and interior. A completely different feeling. If the former is reminiscent of offensive, defensive, and defensive, then the latter will only remind people of Ning Yi and peace. The dark blue dome of the temple loft is a regional landmark
With the arrival of abundant rain in spring, the original gray-white soil wall is covered by the green, and a commercial road paved with bluestone runs across the small town in front of you. The small town in front of you looks very new because of most of the houses. They were all newly built after the Great War of the Holy Capital, and the most famous scenery on the southern side of the Southern Commercial Road from the Holy Capital is the outline of the road that rises layer by layer.
This mountain road is very wide, even at high places, it will not cut corners at all. It is all sturdy and durable granite. Each floor is connected by stone steps and slopes. It is also connected at the turning steep turning intersection. The huge iron ropes connected by iron pillars are used as guardrails. The wide business road is enough to allow four carriages to run side by side without feeling crowded. It is said that just building this winding road that crosses the mountains in front of you cost five hundred and sixty-seven. The life of a Martin Liya, the entire huge business road extending from the Holy Capital area to the south was built by the prisoners of Martin Liya captured in the Battle of the Holy Capital. There were more than 60,000 Martin Liya in the entire Holy Capital War. People were captured, the empire used these prisoners of war as labor for building roads in accordance with the usual practice, and in the supervision of labor, they used the people of the religious group
In the face of these Martin Liya prisoners of war who destroyed their homes and annihilated the country, the Cultist’s overseers were naturally not polite. Under the whip, the Martin Liya people cried for father and mother. The result of this was only half a year. Inside, an imperial business road that is more than 800 miles long and can allow four carriages to run side by side calmly, from the Shengdu area to the south, appears on the land of the ecclesiastical state, and the same distance, the width of the road only requires two carriages to run side by side. The other temple avenue was built 30 years ago under the leadership of the Church of the State of the Order, but it took 200,000 manpower to build it in a full 15 years. According to the requirements of the members of the Church, it was By the way, trees and flowers are planted everywhere, and spring water from the mountains is introduced to irrigate streams, which really does not count labor
is only seen from a height, the large blackened land more than ten miles south of the town feels very unnatural
Even in the early spring when all things are resurrected, the earth is filled with large greens, but the burnt black is like the scars of the earth, which makes people feel desolate, solemn and sad in a vibrant area. A year ago, there was still a battlefield where hundreds of thousands of troops fought in blood. It was the center of the whirlpool where the cavalry rushed. It was the scorched black land. Fire and smoke rose up on the ground, like a huge force hitting the ground.
Thor’s light ball was torn apart in the collision. In the scorching hot wind, the Martin Liya light cavalry fell from their horses one after another in a series of explosions, and finally they were swarmed by the whistling. The arrow rain was completely sifted. It cannot be said that these Martin Liya cavalry were not brave enough. Even if they were shot to death by random arrows, their running direction was still forward. At this moment, they were filled with countless arrow clusters and horses. Still keeps running forward
The gunpowder dissipated, and there were people and horses corpses all over the ground. Blood gathered and flowed on the ground like a stream. Layers of corpses were all submerged in the flames and returned to ashes in the flames!
The Battle of the Holy Capital, the Emperor of the Empire, known as the God of War, defeated the main force of the 200,000 Martin Teeth Army that had withdrawn south from here on an inconspicuous river twenty miles away, and then the Empire The army marched southward with sweeping momentum and once again hit the final heavy army group of Martin Leya in Getayam. Three days and three battles, the imposing 500,000 Martin Leya cavalry was wiped out, and the empire completely established itself with this battle. Hegemony over Southern Europe! The scorched area is the battlefield of Getaia that spreads for more than ten miles. Even if it is more than a dozen miles away, you can see the rumored artillery tower where the Imperial Thor was once placed, and on the Daping platform about two miles around, The pavilion is magnificent, the architecture is elegant, and it is composed of wood and stone, creating a majestic style full of overwhelming atmosphere, condescending
All kinds of rumors and thoughts disappeared. It turns out that the Empire did not assassinate Pope Putamia, and from the 3,000 imperial guards who personally escorted His Highness the Pope to the pomp, the Empire assassinated Pope Putamia. The rumors naturally came to an abrupt end, and the first thing that Pope Putamia did when he returned to the Holy Capital was to clean up the illegal chambers of commerce in the Holy Capital. The gunpowder of the Holy Capital War has been dispersed for more than a year, and the religious regime has tended to Stable, the infusion of a large number of imperial merchants’ capital has brought countless existences like this small town in front of them, and it has also brought enough chaos in this rapidly restored prosperity. The news from the holy capital has been missing for half a year. The Pope Pudamia, who had been assassinated by the empire, returned to the holy capital. This is like a slap in the face, letting the biggest overhang that disturb the entire Obaro continent
"Have you heard that the Roham Chamber of Commerce, the largest smuggling organization, was stolen in the sanctuary’s lair. I haven’t found out who did it until now."
"No, I can say that the lair of the Roham Chamber of Commerce is tightly defended. There are more than 300 guards alone. Most people don’t say that they are close, but they will be caught if they look at it from a distance." At the gate of Yam City, the carriage waiting to enter the city is waiting to be inspected. The most sensational news recently is naturally also in the ears of the dark-haired youth who is leaning against the window of the black carriage
"So, Socutus Delan's first choice is the Grom Chamber of Commerce"
The black-haired young man withdrew his gaze from the direction of the old battlefield like a huge black dragon in the distance. Without turning his head, he asked the middle-aged noble across the carriage
"Yes, the Grom Chamber of Commerce is not only the largest smuggling chamber, but also the largest slave trader in private. The number of slaves sold from the Harvey Kingdom alone reached more than 50,000, occupying the underground slaves of the Holy Capital With 80% of the market share, Miss Dailan always hates slave traders, so she chose to take the other party as the first target." The middle-aged aristocrat replied respectfully, and he was responsible for the mission of the Southern Intelligence Department of the Empire. Rocks, the person in charge
was able to be dispatched by Mount Aitmen to the old enemy’s lair. In addition to the outstanding ability of the middle-aged nobles themselves, they also have another identity, the former logistics minister of the Holy Capital’s Templar Army. The powers of the Holy Capital, large and small, and the entanglement forces in the open and secret are all well known. Even Pope Putamia would not have guessed it if he guessed. On the third night when she returned to the Holy Capital, the imperial emperor was dressed in light casual clothes. When he arrived at the Gotaea, Rocks did not dare to breathe with a cautious big breath
Why did the imperial emperor come to Getaiya secretly? No one may know except the emperor.
From the carriage window, staring at the city with a huge towering mountain back in front of him, the emperor’s eyes shimmered slightly, and there was a faint coolness in the wind blowing on his face. The closer you get here, the more aura you feel. It is getting stronger and stronger, the huge and towering mountain in front of you is really high, five or six hundred meters is probably there, and it is counted as the distance between the peaks
If you move away from the city of Getai at the foot of the mountain, the emperor will think of Yunzhong City at first glance
This is where the real holy city is. According to Putamia's statement, the holy city collapsed, and after the temple sacred group broke with the southern branch of Eero, according to the records of the holy city, we hope to find the one in the record. Another holy city, but because the first generation of the Pope of the State had fallen to the south of Eero, the position of the new holy city was deviated. After searching for several months, the sacrificial group finally gave up and decided to stay in this area. The city was built within the scope. It is reasonable to say that the Mount Getai is so eye-catching that the sacrificial group should not be ignored. The historical confusion is always like the fog of the morning, making people unable to see the previous appearance, and the sacrificial group may not have found it. The location of the new holy city, but under great pressure from the southern branch of Eero,
The gap between the new holy city and the real holy city is only fifty miles. At the moment of entering the Sacred Metropolis Marsh, Du Yu has determined that the direction of the Getaiya eye is the source of the long-term dampness in the Sacred Metropolis. In Du Yu’s eyes A thin aura floats on the surface of this huge plain and swamp. From this way, the center of the aura is finally determined to be the getai. Here, the aura is like a vortex that is constantly emanating and expanding
Du Yu flicked his finger slightly, and a rough God’s Eye stone with the size of a thumb appeared in his hand. The dilapidated God’s Eye rough appeared in a dark ink color, and its surface was not glorious, but like the pulse of a human body. With the same bulging leather shell, Du Yu's fingers gently touched the eye of the **** that let him pass through unintentionally. After half a month of research, Du Yu has basically figured out some things.
First of all, the Eye of God can indeed absorb aura. From this era, I passed it back to the original era because of the aura provided by the Eye of God, and in this era, the Eye of God is full of aura. It’s almost gone, but it’s not impossible. In Yunzhong City, Du Yu saw with his own eyes that God’s Eye, who had been drained of spiritual power, regained its aura through abandoning the sword stone. Of course, this was mainly due to Yunzhong City. The hinterland was a certain base of the Southwest Guard Mansion at the time. The equipment stored in it was almost intact, and the abandoned sword stone was undoubtedly a certain device of this base that was full of God’s eyes. After figuring this out, Du Yu had thought I went to Yunzhong City again, but after hearing a word from Lingling, the high priest of the Tianmiao, Du Yu gave up this plan
"The eye of the **** was brought by the prophet Ferran at the time, and the prophet Ferran left the divine eye that had lost its power in the abandoning sword stand. In other words, the god’s eye was abandoning the sword. Shi Chong's spiritual energy has such an effect for a hundred years. A hundred years... I can't wait for that long. Since I can't recharge for the time being, I can only find the one that has been recharged.
"You don't need to alert the local garrison, and release the news in private that someone has paid a high price to buy such a stone!" Du Yu took a deep breath, and took his eyes back from the carriage that had just passed through the gate, and took the **** of the gods in his hand. Eye pressure on the table
"Yes, my subordinates understand!" Rocks's eyes fell on this seemingly unknown stone, and his heart still couldn't help but tremble slightly. He was once one of the high-levels of Mount Atmen, serving Eero. How can the royal family not recognize what is in front of me for more than 20 years! The emperor was acquiring the Eye of God, which had to give Rocks’ spirit a pause for a few seconds
Rockshi felt that he had conceived the purpose of the emperor’s trip high enough, and he was turned into a scum by the eye of the **** in front of him
"I heard that fine iron ore veins have been found in the Getaiam Mountains?" Du Yu glanced at the wandering Rocks, said indifferently, and swept across the window with a mining logo hanging from the window. Architecture, the city of Getayam used to move all the civilians out of the city for that war, but it also unexpectedly became a city of religious regiments where a large number of merchants flooded in after the war
"There is indeed such a rumor that the Brotherhood of Lasso Miners, known as the mining rats, discovered a mineral vein somewhere in the Gotayam Mountain. They extracted some samples and sent them to the Chamber of Mining for inspection. After confirmation, it was Very good fine iron ore veins, even comparable in purity to the fine iron ore of the Ikars on the Harvey Plateau." Rocks hesitated for a moment, and quickly replied, "There is a certain problem with the reliability of this news, Brother Lasso miners. Will have a very bad reputation in the industry. It has always used fake mineral veins to pretend to be good mineral veins to deceive some laymen who want to invest."
"Send someone to the Brotherhood of Lasso, I want to know who else is exploring minerals in the Gettyya Mushan recently." Du Yu asked, if Yunzhong City has a device like the Abandoned Sword Platform, then Getay There should also be submes, but the Getai Mountain Range covers fifty to sixty miles around, and many of the peaks are even more independent and towering. You can't find one peak by peak. The Brotherhood of Lasso Miners, as a local ground snake, absolutely There will be clues I want
"Yes" Rocks breathed tightly. He was the chief of the Southern Intelligence Department of the Empire in the cult region. A Lasso Brotherhood was also in his eyes. The Lasso Brotherhood claimed to be in Georgia. A resource-rich fine iron ore vein was discovered in the Taiyamu Mountains. The news came out, and it did attract the attention of many imperial chambers of commerce. When the Holy Capital had almost no control, the imperial merchants had Resources are a means of almost plundering, not to mention that the iron concentrates in the southern Obaro region are the purest among all iron concentrates known so far. The best iron concentrates come from the Harvey Plateau further south. Although the refined iron ore in the Religious Kingdom is not as good as the Harvey Plateau, it is not comparable to the refined iron ore in other regions. Half of the prestigious name of the Templars in the Religious Kingdom is based on these high-quality refined iron ore. Based on sophisticated weapons and armor
Rocks subconsciously glanced at the side of the emperor. There are rumors that hundreds of thousands of Ikar and Harvey on the Harvey Plateau fought, and the blood flowed into the river. In the end, both sides were injured. The weird attack and killing made everyone not understand. Until the Ikar and Harvey opened their doors to the empire at the same time, everyone suddenly discovered that the empire would not let the stubborn Harvey mountainous heads, the empire. His influence easily entered the Harvey Plateau where the Martin Liyaren did not go up,
The empire became the biggest winner without a single soldier
This battle also wiped out the voices of those in Southern Obaro who were still insisting on preventing the empire from going south. With Harvey and Ikar as role models, who would dare to stand up and say not to let the empire go south? Rocks originally didn't care about this rumor, thinking it was not some kind of speculation. In every war, no matter what the outcome, someone will always tie the outcome of the war with the imperial emperor to create the so-called imperial conspiracy theory and panic theory. , But at this moment, Rocks is shaken
The emperor is looking for mineral veins, Rocks’s heart is pumping, everyone knows that the best mineral veins are on the Harvey Plateau, in the mountains where the stubborn Ikals graze, the Ikals regard it as a treasure , Harvey people have risen rapidly by virtue of high-quality iron ore. Naturally such precious strategic resources cannot be supplied to the outside world, so if you want to get it, there is only one way to tear it apart by force!
Let Harvey and Ikar willingly hand over these minerals
The emperor wants to mine, and the Ica and Harvey, who have been uniting for decades, save their enemies and become enemies? This is too coincidental
asked Rocks to find a local mouse like the Lasso Brotherhood. Du Yu himself was not idle. The empire had sent a message to the Red Dragon Palace and wanted to redeem the captured Red Dragon Palace personnel. Let the Red Dragon Temple send people to Gettyya, and according to the feedback from the Red Dragon Temple, the Red Dragon Temple sent an acquaintance this time. The person who came is Nalin. In the first battle of the Tianmiao, the masters of the sect nation suffered heavy losses. Na Lin is already one of the few remaining masters in the Red Dragon Palace, and the other purpose of sending Na Lin from the Red Dragon Palace is also very clear. The Red Dragon Palace has no intention of confronting the empire. The Red Dragon Palace believes that it is against the empire. Not only is it not an enemy, but it has also cooperated many times. Tianmiao is completely an accident. Since everyone was once a friend, there is a prerequisite for cooperation
The Red Dragon Palace was even happily expressed that as long as the empire is willing to stop using troops in the Aden area, the Red Dragon Palace can abandon the currently occupied area of Central Piazza
"The Red Dragon Palace can't give up, it can last this spring!" Du Yu just scorned the conditions put forward by the Red Dragon Palace, and the people of Aden lost Mas Crescent Bay. The navy suffered even more serious damage. The South Xi area is ready to move. If you continue to throw hundreds of thousands of the main force in the Central Biya war zone, you are looking for death, but if you want to withdraw these hundreds of thousands of Aden troops back to the Gulf of Aden, you are the first one to face. It’s the imperial navy’s pursuit
The sea is vast, without the cover of the Aden navy. Half of these hundreds of thousands of Aden troops can come back to the gods. Although the Red Dragon Palace is now in control of the situation in Aden, the most important thing to stabilize is the Aden military. Attitude, if the Red Dragon Palace can really contribute to this and allow hundreds of thousands of Aden’s main forces to return safely, this alone will make the Red Dragon Palace’s rule in Aden the greatest stability
The beautiful morning sun shines on the peaceful sea surface of the port, the faint golden color is sparkling with the sea surface, the inner sea area has warmed up with the spring, and the sea surface is rippling with blue waves. It is different from the southern part of the predatory state. Stimulated by the empire’s various investments and commercial recovery policies, the northern part of the Order is full of towns and businesses, and it seems to be the largest offshore coastal zone in Southern Europe. The surrounding population has exceeded two million, occupying the Order. Two-thirds of the total population, although this area is still an ecclesiastical state in name, it is already a district of its own. This area is delineated according to the agreement between the empire and the ecclesiastical state, and it already belongs to the empire in terms of sovereignty. , This alone is an absolute guarantee in terms of politics and business environment,
Breathing the cool and fresh air, watching the picturesque forest scenery of red, yellow and green. On the city streets, school-going teenagers passed by the horse carriages in groups, joking and making noises while waving at each other. There are luxurious carriages and ordinary carriages, and people of different identities shuttle back and forth. The shop is full of people, and the products are dazzling
Here, war seems to be an unrelated matter. The Northern Empire has completed a strategic encirclement of Southern Europe. In the face of bare gold and silver, Southern Europe has completely lost the qualification to block it
Just watched here for an hour~ IndoMTL.com~ From the number of masts gathered in the port, Nalin has already seen this, the chaotic dock location, a carriage marked by the Chamber of Commerce docked quietly, rumors It is an exaggeration to say that there is gold everywhere in the golden harbor. It is definitely an exaggeration to say that the wealth that flows here is rich and the enemy is rich. It is very appropriate to say that the continuous dock berths outside the carriages are almost invisible at a glance, and they are lined up. The opening of ship positions and new berths are undergoing intense expansion day and night. It can be seen that even if the number of berths in the port is increased by ten times, it cannot meet the current berthing needs, especially the ship piers that are docked in large rivers. , A large number of transport ships are still waiting to enter
The number of is so large that it covers the sea
This made Linna, who thought she had seen the big scene, opened her rosy lips slightly. These ships full of various materials and weapons will eventually go south along the waterways of the religious regiment, and the dark black imperial clothes will be in the morning. The cold colors are reflected in the sunlight. There was also a large amount of imperial weapons ready to be unloaded, including heavy weapons such as the Thunder God Cannon. The horses that pulled the guns were also driven down, and they made waves on the dock, which seemed to remind others that the empire was still in the south. The war is in preparation. For the past two years, the Fazer Kingdom has collapsed, the Martin Liya people have collapsed, and the Kalisa people have collapsed. The eight central countries have voluntarily become dogs. The Dark Ministry bowed their heads. The religious regiment has collapsed. It is a situation of annexation,
With the establishment of the new royal family of Eero, Eero is completely finished, and the empire finally takes the Gulf of Aden! The Battle of Aden is the last hope. As a result, our side has absolute home court advantage, resource advantage, and military advantage. Both national and military power have reached the historical peak, and they are still defeated!
This battle cannot go on!
