792 Blood of Winter (1)
"Hehe, this guy named Eklius, his energy is not small! He even bribed 132 food distribution officers. In the more than half a month since our army took over Paravin, the energy can be increased from one million. Out of a ton of grain, a full 60 tons of grain was deducted. If this spreads out, I am afraid that the entire Paravin will collapse."
A chubby young man closed the folder in his hand, put his hand on the table next to him, stood up, smooth and beautiful star-patterned marble facing, sounded his firm and lonely footsteps,
"Your Majesty, would he be arrested immediately? According to our intelligence, the food in Paravin is almost exhausted. This guy should be waiting for the food at this moment! It is better for us to start in advance and rectify these illegal activities. Smuggler"
Behind him, Lidastorf bowed his head hesitantly. If anyone saw it with his own eyes, he would not believe that the meek middle-aged man who looked like a sheep in front of him was the Ministry of Supervision who had been distracted by the outside world. Person in charge
"Not in a hurry, it's just 600,000 tons of grain. I have ordered an emergency mobilization of 2 million tons of rye from the northern county. If he really plans to do this, I will make him cry. Come out!
The fat man raised his head slightly, and a light blue chin of scum appeared slightly, adding a touch of unruly and masculinity to his honest temperament, and said in a condensed voice.
"You send someone to look up the background behind this person. I don't believe someone with no background did it!"
"Yes, the subordinate will send someone to investigate immediately!" Lidastorf nodded quickly, a flash of scarlet flashed in his eyes, he knew that someone was going to be out of luck this time,
As His Majesty Falcon said, I don’t have any problem with you if you want to make money, but you have to dismantle the platform and stir up the stable situation that you have finally traded into a pot of paste. It is undoubtedly offending His Majesty Falcon’s scales.
Greed for ink and relief food, disrupted market prices and caused food prices to skyrocket. A large number of refugees died of food shortages or starved to death, or riots. For His Majesty Falcon, who desperately needs to settle the situation in Swadian, it is tantamount to being hot. Sprinkle a scoop of cold water into the oil and water, and the possible consequences will definitely be a full city fryer
No one can mobilize so much food into Paravin, where food is in short supply under the supervision of the business alliance, even if it is smuggled, not to mention that the food inventory is now very strict, as long as it is found, it will be confiscated immediately, so I dare There are not many people doing this, and fewer can be brought in. If all possibilities are excluded, then there is only one possibility. Someone will be greedy for ink out of the 1 million tons of food shipped in.
Thinking that it was a full 60 tons of grain, even Lidastorf, who was born in the underworld, felt that his former colleagues had done too much this time.
Then he reported to Fatty about the previous investigation of the sweet potato seeds. When he heard that all the sweet potato seeds were seized and shipped back secretly, the Fatty waved his face calmly and interrupted his report. Asked "Where is the merchant who grows sweet potatoes? Didn't you find it?"
"No, we found it. Although it took some time and manpower, we still found this businessman named Aonado in Moa City, south of Paravin, and have been intensively monitored. ,
"With a word from your Majesty, I can immediately order him to be arrested!" Lidastorf replied respectfully, and asked in a somewhat uncertain tone, "Or, it's easy to solve it on the spot!"
Although he doesn’t know why Fatty attaches so much importance to this ruined nobleman who is almost worthless at all, but he also guessed that it may be related to a strictly confidential plant like sweet potato, and Blackhand Lidastorf is not doing this kind of thing. Once or twice, as a pair of eyes in the darkness of your Majesty Falcon, the consciousness of observing words and colors is a must
"Well? Capture? Solve! That's what you think about all day long?"
The fat man stunned for a moment, glared at him with a piercing look, and looked at Lidastorv’s dazed expression, his face showed some depression, yeah, for this guy who has been living in the dark all year round. , Sometimes speaking a normal sentence can also be understood as a variety of cruel thoughts
The fat guy feels it is necessary to elaborate,
Otherwise, maybe it will be handed over to me next time. It is probably the corpse of the merchant named Ang Nato, so no matter how I scold him, it is impossible to bring a dead person back to life. {WW.3, go and read} The fat man's voice paused and said meaningfully
"The purpose of your strict surveillance is not to capture, but to protect, you know! This person is very important to me and even to the entire Falcon dynasty. You are looking for a suitable person within the Ministry of Supervision to find a way Get close to this businessman named Onado, and get the characteristics and methods of sweet potato planting in the shortest time.
"If it doesn't work, just pay for it!" The shameless Majesty Falcon finally pointed out, "Anyway, I don't care what method you use. Within a month, I want to get a detailed planting method. At that time, people could not move, because once If something goes wrong, only he can help us to obtain the right cultivated sweet potatoes. Before our own sweet potatoes mature, you must ensure his safety."
"Yes, the subordinates are too dull! That's why they will be wrong. Your Majesty means "Lidastorf's face is a little pale,
"You go down first!" The fat man waved his hand, turned his back, and talked about the Ministry of Supervision, which was distracted among the outsiders. For the fat man, it was just a tool for secret control. With the military’s presence, the multi-tasking Ministry of Supervision can make up for its shortcomings in civil affairs and commerce that do not involve military affairs.
His eyes follow the wooden skirting and classical reliefs on the circular office wall, looking forward.
The light is dim in front of the bright half-arched French windows. It is raining in the sky. This kind of extremely thin rain that makes people unable to distinguish the drops, beats on the windowsill with the wind,
The tiny raindrops floated towards the window sill, and covered it with a layer of cool and penetrating moss-like moisture
This is the rainy season before the arrival of winter in the Paravin Plain.
In the moist atmosphere, it also wets people’s spirit and clothes. This kind of rain does not pour down, nor does it fall down like a waterfall, causing short-breathing pedestrians to hide under the house doors on the street. ,
After reviewing the report on the table again, the fat man hummed dullly at the corner of his mouth, "I have no objection to getting rich, but whoever wants to dismantle my desk, I will let him peel the skin!"
This time the fat man hurried back to Paravin in secret because of two things,
The first is a report from the South. The Governor of the South, Statunke, and the newly formed Salander Privateer Naval Commander Dusterenkai, jointly wrote a code-named "Guest" combat plan. Behind the Ferran Island chain, which has been frequently active recently by the Nords, launched an unexpected cross-sea operation.
Starting from behind the most unexpected defense line of the Nord Navy, if you are lucky enough to capture the main force of the Nord Navy, you may completely control the battle in the southern waters and kill the expanding Nord Navy in the cradle
This plan is a bit too risky, and the number of warships and landing soldiers deployed is the first time in the Falcon Dynasty, the South China Sea Regiment, the South China Sea Fleet, the Salander Privateer Fleet, and the Hulun tribe’s 20 large ships. The transport ship, this time can be described as the Falcon dynasty navy dispatched, its combat goal is also extremely difficult,
Tiha, the most important naval port and fortress on the southern coast of Nord, is the most important thing for the Nord Kingdom, which is trying to expand the navy, and the Falcon dynasty, who hopes to attract Nord’s attention to the sea. Crucially, whoever has occupied Tiha will be able to take the initiative in the war in the southern waters, and then put the opponent into a passive situation of being beaten.
The arrow is at the string, and I have to send it. The first is the strongest, and the second is the worst. This has been true since ancient times. Instead of waiting for the Nords to realize the benefits of the main attack, it is better to look at them first in their own country. Cut off the coast on the spot!
Fatty was thinking about it again and again, but he still wrote an approval reply on the report,
Now the situation on the mainland is basically clear. With the demise of the Swadian Kingdom, the northern region of Dorok is attached, and the Falcon dynasty in the southwest and north is controlled by the military confrontation between the Nord Kingdom, which occupies most of the southeast and the south. It’s getting more intense,
In the southern part of the mainland, the Nords, who had just suffered a heavy blow, were not reconciled to the defeat in Swadian. Instead, they took advantage of this defeat to re-adjust the old and old army to make a group of young and strong, energetic Abundant military elites replaced those veterans with rigid thinking and took the position of front-line commanders.
In this measure, even the fat man had to admire the courage of the Nord Kingdom Yagrork to break the tradition. This change challenges the foundation of the Nord royal family, the traditional military power of Nord, and it faces The resistance is also conceivable. Fortunately, it is His Majesty the King himself who promoted this plan. Otherwise, he would have been overthrown by the angry generals on the ground.
But within a short period of half a month, Norderney is undergoing an unpredictable change in a calm atmosphere. The minister of military affairs who is not from the military family, the minister of the navy who is not from the military family, and the chief of the military department. On the list, apart from the few insignificant positions that are generals of the martial family, the few important military positions that have been newly appointed are not from the martial family.
According to intelligence, in order to concentrate the elites in his hands to form a strength sufficient to fight the Falcon Dynasty army, Agrork has ordered the reduction of the original four guards into two, with the number of people from the original 70,000. , Reduced to 40,000, and placed a large number of military generals from other armies in these two reduced legions. Although the number has been reduced, the level of elites has reached a heinous level, with 40,000 guards. In the army, there are 1,963 officers from the martial arts. That is to say, on average, every squad has a martial artist who has strict discipline and can fight to the death for His Majesty without hesitation. Officer,
40,000 soldiers with absolute allegiance and elite combat capabilities, even the Central Army under Fatty’s command can’t reach such a level, and the opponent is trying to make up for the lack of strength in the confrontation with the Falcon Dynasty.
Germany is enlisting soldiers on a large scale~IndoMTL.com~The army is expanding. Since the Battle of Stalos, the number of the Nord’s army who lost its troops has fallen below 150,000 for the first time, but in just half a month Inside, three new regiments were expanded in one breath. The number of troops has been expanded from a regular army of nearly 180,000 to 260,000. If you count the number of naval forces, it is already close to 30 when the battle with the Swadian Kingdom was first. Ten thousand troops,
Through the misty sand and mist in front of him, the fat man seemed to see this chariot called the Kingdom of Nord, speeding up its wheel called the decisive battle.
The second thing that worries the fat man is the large-scale food smuggling incident that occurred in Palabun. The Supervision Department responsible for the secret wiring only discovered at the end of November that there was a lot less food in the city.
In order to appease the more than 100,000 residents in the city, the Falcon Dynasty mobilized nearly 1 million tons of grain from the country at a time, and set up several fixed distribution points in the city, which were distributed according to the roster of the residents in the city. But no one thought that 1 million tons of food would be almost empty in less than half a month. Such an urgent situation would shake even the observant fat man. At this moment, who would dare to demolish Lao Tzu’s platform. !
