Power and Empire Chapter 916: A fierce beast strikes (2)
The sun in the afternoon seemed a bit warm. The sky in April was very clear, like a piece of transparent blue glass, and a few white silky white clouds floated lifelessly above the head.
A black unmarked carriage, led by two cavalrymen, slowly drove into the light plateau of Airey Hall,
The carriage stopped in front of the steps on the left side of the ornately decorated Ailey Hall. A serious general quickly descended from the steps and opened the carriage door
"Your Excellency Salton, it is an honor to see you here"
The general respectfully said to a middle-aged man in the carriage, "Due to some special reasons, the originally scheduled meeting has been slightly changed. I hope it will not arouse your suspicion!"
"Your Excellency? "Salton got down from the carriage and looked at the man in the general uniform in front of him with a confused look. His eyes flashed with shock, it turned out to be a three-star.
In his impression, the highest person in charge of Aire’s garrison was nothing more than a banner captain, but now standing in front of him is definitely not a banner captain.
Based on my own knowledge of the uniforms of the Falcon officers, this general with 3 Falcon badges on his shoulders is at least the rank of the commander of the army. Such a character is definitely a prestigious and powerful general in the Falcon army.
Sure enough, the amiable young man smiled at the corner of his mouth, "I am the General Hu Keqili of the Central Army of the Falcon Dynasty!"
"Falcon Claws, Hukki Li!" Salton was obviously taken aback, a flash of amazement flashed across his face. This prestigious general in the Falcon dynasty was even equivalent to that of the Nord Kingdom. Deputy Chief of Military Affairs Department,
The Central Army under its command is also the most powerful main force in the Falcon Dynasty. It is known as the backbone of the 100,000 Falcon Army. How could such a general who has made outstanding achievements on the battlefield condescend to open the door for himself?
"Please follow me!"
Hu Keqili raised his right hand to make a gesture of invitation. Salton's face changed, his mouth opened, and finally he remained silent and followed the steps ahead, not knowing why he suddenly felt There is some tension, and the central general leads the way. What will happen to such a ceremony?
"Crack"
Several soldiers wearing black armors respectfully pushed open the door of the hall, revealing a long corridor behind, with stunning reliefs on the richly decorated wall blocks, and there is a marble statue every 20 meters from the road. ,
Salton secretly counted, this section of the corridor, which is about 100 meters long, actually occupied a full 50 meters of guards. It can be said to be heavily guarded, not inferior to the guards of the Nord Palace.
"With me, Your Majesty has been waiting inside for a long time!"
Just when Salton felt hesitant, Hu Keqili turned around from the front and said,
Heavy footsteps echoed in the hall corridor,
"Your Majesty!"
Salton’s thoughts are a bit messy, there is only one person who can have this name in the Falcon Dynasty, and that is the Viking Falcon.
He didn't expect that this time he would have the opportunity to meet the Vicia Falcon in person, although he was mentally prepared,
But such a big contrast still made him shocked and unable to calm down for a while,
Bright sunlight shines in from the carved vent holes at the top of the walls on both sides of the corridor, forming a stippled walkway in the corridor,
Salton walked by with a solemn expression, with an inexplicable emotion rolling in his mind, the Vikia Falcon was actually in Aire! This news is too shocking!
Since the main force of Nord suffered a fiasco in the southern part of the Vecchia, the senior leaders of Rude have come to a conclusion that this time Nord’s 100,000 army was not defeated because it was not brave enough or strong enough.
It was because the opponent they faced was the Viking Falcon, who was known for his scheming. i This young celebrity who has set an undefeated record in recent years has once again continued his undefeated brilliance with his good luck against the sky.
Now that Nord talks about the battle, it feels a little bit indignant. If it wasn't the **** surprise landing, if it wasn't the pride of the coast guard, if it wasn't the incompetence of the fleet. . . . . . Too many if. This led to Nord’s 100,000 elites, and they came home in front of the quiet victory gate
Of course, this is another matter in Salton’s eyes. As he knew in Kyoto, the war was a mistake at the beginning. There was nothing wrong with the raid on the southern part of Vicia, but it overlooked the most important thing. The important question is that the Falcon dynasty has stabilized its rule on Salander Island.
This is a very critical layout. Only when you really face it, you will discover how powerful this layout is for the entire continent, especially for the Nordic Kingdom. The cross umbrella formed by Salander and the southern part of Vikia The face, like a sharp blade, presses behind the Nord Kingdom at any time.
Thinking about it now, Salton will also start an all-out war for the Vickia Falcons, Ken Ken, and also occupy this seemingly useless island country, and feel sincere admiration for what is a master of layout. Regardless of the gains and losses of one city and one place, you can directly use the kingdom and the continent as your banner, and thousands of creatures are in your hands
If the huge layout is simply unheard of, the Nord Kingdom has been unconsciously trapped in a terrible package. When it is really confronted, it suddenly realizes that all his efforts are in vain. I have opened my blood basin and waited for myself,
Like this seemingly stable battle, even if everything goes well, the army captures Dylan and cuts off the connection between the southern part of Vicia and Salander, but at the same time it will fall into Salander and Jyre. Bo Bao’s full flanking attack from both sides,
This is a reckless gamble, just like seeing the warrior in front of your eyes, always hoping to crush the enemy with your own bravery, but forgets that the real danger often comes from behind, a light landing , Completely reversed the whole battle. The **** battle of more than 100,000 soldiers in the front could not withstand the impact of the turbulence in the rear.
"Slap"
Just when Salton was full of thoughts, Hu Keqili, who led the way, suddenly stopped in front of a room, "Your Majesty, Lord Salton is here!"
"Come in! The door is unlocked"
A somewhat honest but wise voice came from the room, and Salton walked into the room nervously, his eyes immediately focused on a fat figure standing in front of the window sill
"I've heard the name for a long time, although we are enemies, we are old friends!" The fat man turned his face calmly, sat down in a chair in front of the window, and waved to Salton, who was nervous. Waved, "Sit down, we're here to discuss business, aren't we? There are no Governor Su Ruo and Your Majesty Falcon here. There are only you and me, and both of you want to have a profit!"
"Don't worry, I was a little rude just now, I just thought that I would see your majesty under such circumstances!" Salton sat down opposite the fat man with a solemn expression, making the fat man on the other side laugh. "Nothing, I said, you and I are businessmen, there is no majesty here! If you need to see that majesty, please send an official diplomat"
"This..." Salton's face was slightly ugly, and his expression of embarrassment stopped. He didn't know how to say it. Although it had been heard that the Vecchia Falcon had some unique characters, he didn't. Thinking that it would be so unique, there is no monarch's consciousness at all,
Seeing Salton hesitating. The fat man picked up the water cup on the table indifferently, his face blew the heat of the water indifferently, and then he said, "Since you are a guest and I am the host, then I'm not welcome, 1 million gold coins, the squadron captain's character is not counted. , You are embargo in Su Luo, don’t you just want to redeem these soldiers?"
Salton's face was stunned for a moment, and seeing the fat guy talking about this kind of thing as if he was defending some justice, he couldn't help but despise deeply, and sighed secretly. Such a guy, or more like it The God of War on the mainland who didn’t suffer at all in the war and didn’t bother to wait for the enemy to throw himself into the net,
But his face still pretended to be a suit of worship, sighed, and said, "It turns out that your Majesty has guessed it a long time ago. Yes, I am embargoed in Suluo, just to contact the military of the Falcon Dynasty through the business alliance. Come to discuss the redemption of prisoners of war, this time the kingdom owes them, but such a high price is really unacceptable!"
The fat man said with a sad expression on his face, "I am also a soldier, and I don’t want to embarrass these soldiers who have been abandoned by the motherland, but those are 40,000 elite soldiers who have been battlefielded. If the price is unreasonable, I think It's an insult to them! So I will fight for them a suitable ransom money"
"But, I really didn't bring that much money!" Salton is not a good person, and immediately put on a pitiful expression. He is not a very serious guy, doing this It’s easy to handle.
The fat man hesitated for a while~IndoMTL.com~ Seeing that he couldn't squeeze anything useful, he raised **** again
With a sad face, he said, "Well, depending on your sincerity in coming to Airey, I will give you another face.
Minus 200,000, 0 million is already the bottom line! Think about it, that is 40,000 elite, and you can form combat power when you go back.
You can get so many veterans with the funds to form a new corps. Where can you find such a good thing! "
The fat man put on a sincere attitude, wishing to say "you earned it" directly in his mouth
"I can only pay 600,000 at most! And redeem everyone." Salton gritted his teeth. Although he didn't want to admit it, he also agreed with the fat man's statement. This is a 40,000 veteran, and he needs troops. For the infused Nord, it can be said that where to live is very important, so I had to report the bottom line in my heart.
"Okay, deal!" The fat man agreed without hesitation, and immediately reached out his hand, grabbing Salton's right hand while still in a daze, and then said, "I have one more thing I want to ask Salton. Your Excellency, I need to meet with His Majesty Agrork. I think only His Excellency Salton can do this!"
