Power and Empire Chapter 386: 3 conditions (5)

, Zhang is dark, and heavy rain pours down from the blackened sky, and Zhou Gandi smashes against the ground strongly and vigorously, and yellow smoke and dust evaporates from the ground.

The sudden torrential rain made the Stian soldiers stationed at the Vatu Pass feel miserable. Clusters of soldiers in tattered clothes were driven by the heavy rain and ran out of the tattered leaky tent.

They are the peasants of the lord of the west. Unlike the well-equipped Steian regular army, those western lords with weak financial resources could not equip them with waterproof tents. Many soldiers’ tents were pieced together with ordinary rotten cloth strips.

Not only is it not waterproof, but many collapses occurred in heavy rain, causing many people to be injured by the Stian soldiers

The wind blows in from outside the tent, and the tongue rustles in the dozen or so braziers in the tent.

"What's going on outside? Stian Tuksa retracted his eyes from the map and raised his head unhappy. Below him, there are a few banner leaders from the Stian Western Regular Army.

The rumbling outside interrupted Stean Tuksa's analysis. He ordered a guard captain standing inside the tent, "Visa! You take a hundred law enforcement teams, these untouchables are too noisy!" We can't count on those waste lords! They need someone to teach them what is the consequences of obeying military discipline and violating commanders!"

"Yes, my lord!" The captain of the guard nodded and replied, bowing respectfully to exit the tent,

Soon there was a kick of horseshoes outside the tent, and the iron armor gleamed in the rain. Hundreds of black knights with heavy armor, led by the captain of the guard, quickly disappeared into the dark.

This is the family's law enforcement team, composed of the most loyal family defenders, and is the most combative force of the Steien family. The imperial forest army of the family.

"My lord. These peasants and soldiers are our biggest hidden danger!" A head of the banner withdrew his gaze from outside the tent. With a bit of disdain on his face, his voice is low

"I think these incompetent untouchables can't help us at all, but will be counterproductive at critical moments. If it is the usual ordinary war, it will be fine, but this time we are facing Samor Everyone has seen what happened during the day. The 20,000 peasants can't even defeat the opponent’s treacherous and heavily armed infantry. This is really a shame for us to glorify the Sian army!"

"Oh, then what do you think we should do. If you hand over the right wing to your Ninth Banner, can you guarantee a firm hold?" Stian Tuksa raised his face and said with a cold expression. He knows that because of the previous series of failures, these rebellious family generals have a lot of opinions on him."

Stian Tuksa’s words caused a moment of silence in the tent. The daytime battle was very exciting to the entire Stian army. Although General Stian’s mouth was very tough, in fact, everyone knew that,

Not only was it defeated during the day. Moreover, it was a disastrous defeat. Even if he led the regular troops, he might not be able to block the mobilized Samor army. No one was stupid enough to die.

The three successively stacked gun array is simply a mobile killing machine, everyone can see it. They are all veterans who have been fighting for a long time, with superb skills and a stable mind. Let them become the most terrifying enemy on the battlefield. Their indomitable momentum and strong belief in victory are enough to make them dare to attack any opponent,

What's more, the commander-in-chief of the opposing party is the Southern Falcon who has swept the entire kingdom and has never been defeated. 2,000 to 20,000, this disparity in data has clearly proved how sharp this falcon’s claws are!

Faced with ten times the enemy, he still dared to command a small group of elite troops, capable of forcibly penetrating the right flank of Stian’s army with its extremely sharp assault gun array.

Not only did the well-arranged trap of Stian’s army fail to work, but more than 3,000 people got in. Although they were just insignificant lowly peasants, the bravery of the Samor army has been deeply advanced. In the hearts of General Stian here,

"Actually, these lords are not useless! At least they can consume the spirit of the Samors." Another General Stian stood up with an awkward expression, and drew a long line with his fingers along the map on the long table in the middle.

"The Vatu Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, especially the canyon passage leading to our rear. It belongs to the rear of the front line and basically will not be attacked by the enemy. We can give this defense to these lords, This way we can replace the elite troops stationed from behind!"

"Haha! This is a good suggestion. I think the farmers will still be able to throw rocks down the mountain!" This general Stian made a loud discussion in the tent.

Everyone suddenly heard the rumbling of the peasants and soldiers outside, with the rumbling of the collapse of the tent, the sound of the impact of the sword, the neighing and screaming of the horses, and the screams of war horses.

Such chaos continued for a while, and then fell into a dead silence, quietly, even the sound of raining outside can be heard,

A large army of tens of thousands of people camped, this kind of calm is very strange

The generals looked at each other with weird faces. No one spoke. Everyone set their sights on the commander-in-chief Stean Tuksa

"Wan Fett said well! I also think it can be done." Stian Tuxa's face was calm and terrible, and he talked to the generals in the tent, seeming to have not noticed the changes outside at all." Step on!" There was a sound of horses' hoofs outside the tent, and the captain of the guard, Visa, who had just left the tent. He walked in from outside, covered in dark red. The iron armor on his body was washed away by the rain.

Large dark red patches are irregularly distributed on it, making it impossible to distinguish whether it is the original color or stained later. The rain drips down the lock piece to the ground, forming a dark red water line

Visa, the captain of the guard, came to Stian Tuksa and bowed respectfully and said, "My lord, all the rioters have been executed! A total of surplus heads! The law enforcement team has been hung in the camp according to military regulations. On the flagpole, I believe those untouchables will no longer disturb the meetings of the adults!"

"Well! You go down first!" Stian Tuksa waved his hand to Visa, his expression calm, the muscles on his face did not even shake, as if the person just executed was not a living person, but Just a simple number

"It is said that Master Stefan Tuksa personally ordered the burning of the entire Kyoto!" The generals did not believe this rumor before, but now, this rumor has become true in the generals' minds. Many,

"Crazy!" This thought made these generals Stian come out from their mouths, friends, and a massacre of hundreds of thousands of people! ※

Prosperous Kyoto, the heart of the entire kingdom was burned into ruins in a sea of ​​flames,

Such crazy things, not a madman, I really can’t do it

Stean Tuxa looked at the faces of the generals below from the corner of his eyes. There was a sneer at the corner of his mouth,

He knows that the previous series of battles have been defeated, so that these temporarily summoned western generals look down on themselves in their hearts. The battle has reached the most critical moment. He will never allow any doubts.

I need some special methods to gather people's hearts and kill chickens and police monkeys. It looks good now. He believes that no one will dare to question his decision anymore.

Stean Tuksa pointed at the map, clicked the table fiercely with his fingers, and said solemnly, "I thought that the Samor army would attack the gorge, deliberately distribute the fifth and seventh elite flag regiments. On both sides of the estuary passage, it seems that the Samorians on the opposite side have seen our arrangement. Starting tomorrow, your two flags will evacuate the passage to take charge of the frontier defense. I will arrange for other lords to take over your defense."

"But my lord, the passage of the defile is related to the entire battle. We still..." An old and respectful General Stian was still worried about this arrangement and just got up from his seat. He was pulled by the corner of his clothes by his companions, which made him stop talking,

"Do you want to die! Do you really think the heads on the flagpole are for those untouchables?" The general who held him, whispered quietly beside him. This made the general Stian a cold blow. Trembling, I can vaguely see a long string of spherical objects floating on the flagpoles towering outside

For the general’s words, Stian Tuksa pretended not to hear him, still looking at the map with his head down, and after a while he raised his head. At this moment, all the generals are sitting in their seats honestly, no one Raise another objection

"Everyone, do you have any comments on this arrangement?" Stian Tuksa asked knowingly, his face gloomy like the sky outside

"No! Your lord's decision is our will!" The generals looked at each other, and they all nodded in response. Everyone is not a fool. The commander's meaning is so obvious, why should I stick to it.

The sky gradually brightened in this embarrassment, and a white line appeared in the eastern sky. I don’t know if it was due to heavy rain or other reasons. In the morning, the Samor army never sent troops to try to attack the mountain. Stian Tuksa breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that the Samor Falcon is not an omnipotent god. The sudden rainstorm made this prestigious kingdom **** of war bewildered.

But soon, Stian Tuksa couldn’t laugh.

Yesterday’s heavy rain washed away the bare rocks and slopes lacking tree protection. Crushed rocks, mud, sand, and muddy water flowed down from the higher mountain tops. They were stationed in mountain camps, constantly being subjected to this or that. The turbid water hit the camp, the tents in the camp were washed away, and the ground became muddy and difficult to navigate in the heavy rain.

Many of the armors of Stian soldiers were soaked in heavy rain and blown by the violent mountain wind. The cold body only shivered, and the army lacked enough fire and herbs to cure the cold, which caused many soldiers to fall ill due to cold.

More terribly, on both sides of the mountain road near the gorge, a large pile of rubble that was already loose was washed down by the water at the top of the mountain. Like tumbling mud water dragons, gushing down from the top of the mountain, the rocks are rolling, and even the trees deep in the cliff wall are wrapped in, and the brown roots are mixed with the human body, which is faintly visible in the mud

It was at night, and many soldiers were resting in tents. Stian Tuksa went to take a look. It was a disaster. Just a simple count, more than a thousand people were crushed. And mud flooded, more than 2,000 people were injured,

The sound of "brushing" rain made Stian Tuxa feel a horror from his heart. The heavy rain did not stop at all. Instead of reducing the black rain clouds in the sky, they gathered more and more. . It's like a pile of straw piled up,

Silver lightning came out from inside, struggling to move forward. A crooked dazzling flash was drawn, and then it was swallowed by the black sky again. Everyone could see that a bigger storm was gathering

"Damn rainy season" this time it was Stean Tuksa's turn to have a headache. In order to defend against the fire bomb offensive that the Samor army is famous for throughout the kingdom, Stian's army cut down the dense pine forest and bushes of the mountain pass. The slippery slopes on the hills that have lost their trees have now become a battlefield raged by a large number of mud and sand. The turbid yellow waters collided with each other, constantly scouring down from the top of the mountain. Even Stian Tuxa himself was splashed, and he had to use his gorgeous armor to walk deep and shallow on the muddy road.

In one night, nearly 4,000 people were lost, and the casualties even exceeded the frontal battle the day before. This is tantamount to sprinkling a handful of salt on the extremely disadvantaged wounds of the Stian army.

Stian Tuksa finally knows why the Samor army is so quiet today. The Samor Falcon on the opposite side obviously knew the impact of heavy rain on him, and he was waiting. Wait for the moment when your army is completely destroyed by this torrential rain! Legend has it that the Samor Falcon is the darling of the gods and the patron of the **** of victory. The claws of the falcon never fail!

"I won't lose! If the gods help you, I'll cut it off with the gods." Stian Tuksa looked at the muddy subordinates, looked at the deadly wounded family elite, with blood red eyes Come back. In the rain curtain in the distance. Large tracts of white tents are looming in it, especially the huge falcon flag, which flutters with the wind in the white rain, and the appearance of the teeth dancing claws is like coming to life

"The opposite is really a stubborn little guy!" The fat man looked at the destroyed Jiangtou camp, with a chuckle at the corner of his mouth. He could fully imagine the depression and embarrassment of the Opposite Stian army,

The Fatty ride this time is not a Supor horse dedicated to the Samor cavalry, but a more precious Sunaent horse. The mane of this kind of horse is particularly luxuriant and small, just like a collar around the horse’s neck. It looks very noble. It is one of the most favorite war horses of nobles.

If the Supor horse is the knight in the war horse, then the Suna Ente horse is the nobleman in the war horse. It is considered the most elegant and noble horse breed with the energetic armor of the fat man. In the flying rain curtain, it really feels a bit elegant and free and easy.

This was specially sent from the Jones family a few days ago. It was Fatty’s fiancee. Sister Jones Nellie personally set a war horse for her character. She was sobbed as the duke who was "skilled marriage" by the fat man. Shunvzhou, the decision room took the initiative,

She will be at Fatty’s barracks in four days, as the new patriarch of the Jones family. Discuss the Jones family's reorganization of the Kyoto United Chamber of Commerce, of course this time in Kyoto. It's no longer the old Cristo. It’s the new center of Vicia, "Rivadin"

Fatty couldn't refuse this request. In name, Jones Nellie was still the lord of Zivadin. Fatty can also understand the Jones family's urgent request to show their influence.

The situation is better than people, especially this time the Jones family civil turmoil, let the always arrogant Jones old fox see one thing clearly, the army is the final say in this kingdom, and the kingdom’s biggest power now is Samer. The territory has expanded from the south to the north. Commercial changes and preferential trade policies have allowed the rapid expansion of Samor’s influence.

Countless merchants gathered from all over the mainland in the southern part of Viktoria. The southern population and industrial base is becoming stronger. In March, the business alliance signed a trade regulation with the southern overlord Rude. After agreeing to pay an annual channel fee of 100,000 gold coins, the Kingdom of Ruud, which has common interests with Samor, offered to Samor. Opened its own business channel, which virtually doubled the scope of the business alliance, and more than 100,000 businessmen joined the business alliance

The prosperous Southern Riwadin Chou broke the 600,000 mark in the May report, surpassing the heyday of the previous kingdom of Kyoto Kristol.

On the prosperous Jivadin Plain, there is an endless stream of mercantile carriages and cargo ships. The new center of the Wichia Kingdom has been formed. Rupi said that the former southern overlord was just a vulgar warfighter with the name of a governor. The Fat Samor is now synonymous with the noble and the new King Wichia,

On the whole continent, except for the northern powers headed by Miaoerdian, other kingdoms only recognize that Samor is the representative of Vickia. For Steian Cousse in the north, more Vickias call him "Sleeping King Cousse" has an obvious derogatory meaning in Wikia, to satirize the despicable deeds of the northern hero in the Khergit War and his shame in relying on the Swadians!

If the Jones family does not want to miss a rare opportunity for development because of their arrogance, they must abandon the previous equal cooperative attitude and truly become a big branch under the influence of Samer. Jones Nellie personally takes the initiative. Represents a change in the philosophy of the Jones family

"My lord, with regard to the three conditions of the Maomo family, should we consider "Lidacus, who is accompanying him, whispered in the fat man's ear". The first two things that require commerce and the formation of caravans are both There is no problem, but they asked us to send an army to help the Maomo family stabilize the west. I think this is not good for my Samor. A divided west is what we need most. We can choose a few from the many families in the west. Agent, this can even achieve the purpose of dispersing the power in the west. The Maomo family is too strong, and we may not be able to stay there anymore!"

"Scattered West!" The fat man seemed to be dissatisfied with Lidarcus's words and looked back safely from the distant mountain pass, and lightly patted the horse under his hip with the whip in his hand. The **** asked in a hue, "Do you think those families are OK, Altay, Festo, or the Picnic family that smuggles arms, if I want your caravan to pass safely through the west, do you think they are among them? Which one of them can do it?"

"This

Lidakus was pale and panicked. The families mentioned by the fat man were all related to the Lida family and were important business partners. The fat man pointed out these families in person and warned The meaning is too obvious.

Lidarcus knows it himself. Although these families are closer to the Lida family, they do not have the prestige of the Maomo family, not to mention that they rule the entire west, that is, their territory is full of bandits, and they are in a mess, making these families the west. Agent, that's a disaster

"Go reply to them!" The fat man raised his whip in the air and pointed to the mountains in the distance. "I can agree to three conditions, but I also have three conditions. First, the business alliance must set up a branch in the west. , Second, the West must claim to be a part of Wikiah!"

"Third!" The fat man looked at Lidarcus and sneered at the corner of his mouth, "It will cost me Samor to send troops, and I don't want to be too young to fall in military expenses!"

"Falling 10,000!" Lidarcus' eyes were round, and he almost fell off immediately. The fat man was crazy about money. Everyone knows what the West is like. Every year, he relies on such a little fur for income. To support such a large group of children, even if the Western Momo dominates the family. It is estimated that the profit of 10,000 gold coins will fall at most in a year! It’s not enough if you let the Maomo family sell the property. Falling ten thousand! "The fat man nodded affirmatively, "I can't miss a point, if not." Then use the woman named Mao Monaqing as a mortgage"

"So that's it!" Lidarkus's face was stunned, and his eyes turned straight on the fat man's face~IndoMTL.com~Although the fat man was lustful and confessed to the money, he had never heard of using a woman to do it. The habit of mortgage, and it's still at the moment when the fiancée of the Jones family is about to come,

Isn't it an "internal struggle", think of it here. Lidarcus, who has always been cautious and timid, couldn’t help but shrank his head. This kind of complicated struggle of the monarch’s own house is a "trouble" that has no bones.

Think about the **** dog-blood incidents of the royal family in the past. Lidarcus, who once enjoyed the secret files of the Swadian royal family, never dared to say anything anymore. He just looked at the fat man with a pair of poor eyes to show that he was "Totally ignorant"

"What are you thinking!" The fat man saw Lidarcus looking at him with a pair of staring gazes. He drew Lidarcus a horse whip, and cursed, "I'm not looking at that woman too much." Simple, there is her in the west. I don’t worry about it!"

"My lord is really wise. This woman is the jewel in the hands of the Maomo family. This time she was able to play such an important role in the secret mission. It seems that Mao Modan pays more attention to her. It even surpasses Mao, who is the patriarch. "Moravente" Lidarcus nodded with a smirk, and looked at the fat man's back and couldn't help but tilt his mouth. "There is such a big beauty in the west. As long as it is a normal man, I don't think I can rest assured!"
