1903 Fragrance (3)
In the forest in early spring, the sun fell from among the leaves, shining on the two people in the forest, and there were white points of light flying in the golden pillar of light.
"Can you tell me now why you helped Gangfei?" Lidastovv raised his head, looked at the sunlight overhead, and said slowly, "This is not what I asked, it was asked by His Majesty, don't be in a hurry to deny it, just before I left, His Majesty received a message from the princess from Gang Fei, do you know what His Majesty wanted to do at that time......?"
Borroscaedia's face was pale, and his head was covered with cold sweat, he had no doubt at all what the Imperial Inspector General said, the other party had no need to deceive him, what the family did in Gangfei was originally his own instruction, so that the Falcon Empire was under pressure from the countries of Central Europe and Barrow, and then gave up its ambition to seize the southern region of Gangfei.
Thinking that he was wandering between life and death just now, his gaze at the Chinese scroll in his hand also became solemn, "At this time, everyone is better to be honest" Lidastov's voice implied a sudden chill
"Indeed, at this time, it's better to be honest" Borroscaedia smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, holding the document that was crucial to the fate of the family, plucked up the courage of his whole body, gritted his teeth and said, "Gangfei people once sent people to spread the word privately, as long as they can drag the empire from attacking Gangfei in the south, they will help us build our own country?" "Stupid, do you believe Gangfeiren's words?"
Lidastov rolled his eyes at him, "The Empire is already in decline, and the lost northern regions don't know when they will be able to recover it, where is the strength to help you?" We have to believe it!" Borroscadia let out a long sigh, "The empire is vast, the wealth is calculated in tens of millions, the empire has an undefeated army of millions of people, and there are iron horsemen who crush the north of Obaro! How can the empire know about our suffering,
As the descendants of the thousand-year-old Fia dynasty, the Burrows family wanted to rebuild the glory of their ancestors. We have worked hard for nearly a thousand years, spent countless financial and material resources, and are even called the Shadow of Obarro,
But a shadow is a shadow, and it can never be real,
The family has been declining since decades ago, and in my generation, its influence is not as good as before, and now the most important part of the family, the Turit, is also going to be separated.
Now the Congo people have expressed their willingness to help us build our country. Even if we know that it may just be a sentence that cannot be fulfilled, we have no choice!
And how can I believe that the Empire is more sincere than the Gangnon?
After all, the Gangafi are more representative of the Central European Baro, and if the Gangafi recognize us first, our new country will be recognized by more other countries!"
"Haha, sure enough, what His Majesty said is really right"
The corners of Lidastov's mouth twitched slightly, and he could see that Burroskedia, the head of Burrows, was really tempted, and what he lacked now was a gentle push.
And the entry point chosen by His Majesty is simply a bait that the Burrows family cannot refuse, even if they know that cooperating with the empire is in danger of seeking the skin of the tiger, the other party will not hesitate to bite it. "The sincerity of the empire comes from the fact that everyone can see it!" said bitterly on the issue of Burrows Cadia, saying that it may be difficult for other countries to help Burrows build a state. But in His Majesty's eyes, helping Burrows to establish a state is actually no different in essence from helping the Duke of Putao to take control of Putao from the beginning!"The empire needs more strategic footholds. That's the answer the Empire has given you!" Lidastov said with certainty, "Now everyone can see the Empire's desire to intervene in Central Europe."
"More strategic footholds!" said Borroscaedia for a moment, "Doesn't the Empire already have a Putao?"
"Putao is just a foothold in the open sea. The real goal of the empire is the inland sea, I believe that the head of the house knows very well whether I am lying or not!" Lidastov's eyes were sharp, his hand held a big tree next to him, his head was slowly raised, his eyes looked at the crown of the big tree, and he said, "Since the defeat of the Gangfei people last year, the fleets of the empire have gathered in the Putao region,
"The Imperial Fleet is also taking action on the expansion of the Inland Sea, and the main forces of the Empire were still in the north at that time, so it was just some preliminary work, but now, the Empire has completed the goal of dominating the northern region, "This time His Majesty is even more personally visiting the Putao, which is enough to show that the Empire will soon be transferred to the Central European Barrow region, just a Putao, how can it meet the needs of the Empire for the control of the inland sea!"
"For the empire, if you want glory, wealth, and a state, this is not a problem for the empire," Lidastov said in a flat tone, "If the empire is a giant tree that grows, the vines wrapped around the trunk can continue to grow, and the empire and the general tao are such a symbiotic relationship!"
"In exchange, what the empire wants is your true sincerity, just like the Duke of Putao, he may have lost some of his benefits, but he has gained more, the unimaginable wealth that the empire has brought to the Putao region, the steady development, the safe environment, and the rapidly rising state status, following the empire, the Putao adoption continues to grab more benefits!
"But what about your Burrows family? Why have you worked hard for hundreds of years, and when you were at your strongest, you were even able to control the government of several countries, but in the matter of founding the country, you are not as far as a little Putao" Lidastov's voice suddenly stopped, and he looked at Boros Kedia, who was listening, and said in an accentuated tone
"Don't talk about the founding of the country, that is, the women of your Burrows family, until now they do not even have a real identity, the countries can tolerate the special and honorable status of the women of the Burrows family, but at the same time, they also cruelly stipulate the humiliating conditions that all Borrows women who marry outside will not be officially recognized,
Although they have the appearance to enchant men and the ability to influence a country, the blood of these descendants of the Fiya Dynasty is the shadow that can never truly integrate into the royal families of various countries."
Boroscaedia's face was red when he was spoken, and it took a while for him to come to his senses, and Lidastov's words pierced his soul like a needle,
There is a big problem with the family's strategy,
The family actually pinned their hopes for the restoration of the country on those rebels who split from the Fiya Dynasty, and delayed it for hundreds of years in vain.
Is this true?" Borroscaedia was torn together in his heart......
I didn't feel anything before, but now that it is clearly said, I realize what a deviation and how powerful a strategy this is, no wonder, hundreds of years have consumed the huge wealth inherited by the family from the dynasty, and it has also consumed the efforts of countless people in the family, "The empire is the last hope of the Burrows family, and Your Majesty hopes that you are worthy of this investment of the empire!" Lidastov stretched out his hand. He patted Burroscaedia on the shoulder, who had been completely there
"It's time for you to wake up, if the Borrows family declares that they want to establish a state in the Central European Barro region, the voice of the Central European Baros countries will only be an army with spears and armor held high, and an iron horse galloping to crush the ambitions of the Borrows family!
Do you think that at that time, the Gangfei who promised you will help you to resist the combined attack of the nations?
No, they won't hesitate to betray you!
"You're going to be wiped out by the whole Central European Barrow, because you've found the wrong collaborator from the start.
Except for the Falcon Empire from the north, there will be no one in the whole of Central Europe! These are the exact words of His Majesty! That's all I can say!"
Lidastov walked towards the gate and suddenly stopped. Turning his head to thank Dade behind him, and Buros Kedia, who was eager to swear eternal allegiance to the emperor, said, "To be honest, His Majesty was very angry at first!" Lidastov's voice paused, and his eyes were like a sword to look at Boroscadia, whose face turned pale, "But in the end, I still chose to believe you" "If you really didn't even look at it just now." I can guarantee that the moment I step out of the gate, the Imperial guards outside will swarm in. Will kill everyone mercilessly!
"Don't expect to escape through the dark passages, the Imperial Navy warships have already blocked the port, your fleet is under surveillance, and the blood of the Burrows family flowing all over the city will be redder than the setting sun before the sun goes down!"
Lidastov stretched out his hand, snapped, with a crisp sound, and his fingers twisted off a branch of a tree that had just grown in the spring at the doorway, which was full of greenery and speckles, and Lidastov put it between his nose and sniffed the smell of spring, and then casually threw away the mud under his feet, turned around, and said slowly
"Your Majesty's temper is not good, but he never breaks his word, it does not mean that His Majesty will tolerate you continuing to be so reluctant to give the empire a burden in the dark! The 6,000 men of the Sixth Infantry Regiment of the Second Southern Army of the Empire in Putao have already entered the city at this time, and they have a list in their hands, and they will immediately launch a large-scale search for the whole city after receiving my order, as long as there is an order, every member of the Burrows family in this city, as well as those who are connected with the Burrows family, will be immediately executed according to the crime of treason."
From Lidastov's hands, as a result, the Burrows family swore allegiance to the document that was willing to become a dependent kingdom of the empire, the fat man's gaze swept over the vast sea in front of the naval building, the sea of early spring, the ice floe was still visible, but more was the rolling waves on the sea, the ice was broken into countless pieces, and finally turned into a part of the sea, the empire is this sea of melting ice, the Burrows family's refuge not only solved the torrent inside the Putao, but also directly shook the attitude of the Strand Sea State,
"Your Majesty, what should we do with the leader of the radical faction?" Lidastov said with a respectful expression, "Berroscadia has agreed, in order to show loyalty to the suzerainty of the empire, this person will be completely handed over to us at will!"
"Find an excuse, say that he is a spy of the Gangfei people, give the Gangfei Imperial Service a special spy on the intelligence of the Putao region, and instigate the Putao people to start a riot, cause panic in the region, hoard materials, and make huge profits, and then use this as an excuse to send him back to Gangfei!" The fat man put his hands behind his back and said in a condensed voice, "Why is this? Wouldn't it be better to kill such a person directly!" Lidastov asked puzzledly. Dead people also have the value of dead people, the empire needs a reason to go to war against the gang unofficially, and we don't need to bear the blame for the Burrows family!" The fat man hesitated for a moment, turned his hands behind his back, turned around from the window and said, "Just like the Gangnon people framed us, we also framed them once, and there are contacts and contacts, so it is called diplomacy!" "What if the Gangnons refuse to admit that this person is their person?" Lidastov said with a look on his face and hesitation. According to the current situation in Gangfei, they will never admit it if they are killed, not to mention that it is a false accusation at all!" "Haha, do you think I really let the Gangfei people admit it? The Imperial fleet has already set off, and it should have passed the Gibro Promenade at this time. The war is already on the line, it has to be sent, whether Gang Fei Ren admits it or not, we will start fighting, Gang Fei Ren also knows very well, but they are lucky!" The fat man smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, his hand flicked the texture on the uniform, and said with a smile, "Give Gang Fei Ren a choice, whether to fight to the death with us on land, or drag on for a while." Let the Alien Navy fight with us at sea, which do you think they will choose?"
"Naturally, I chose to drag it out for a while, and let the Strand Navy fight with us to the death, who doesn't know that our Imperial Army has never been defeated! The last war was even more Gang Fei Army completely out of temper! If it weren't for His Majesty's order, maybe even their Kyoto would have been captured!" Lidastov's eyes lit up and he said, "And for the Gangfei people, the alliance with the Sea Kingdom is only temporary, if we can make both sides lose with the Sea State, then it will be the best situation!"
"Yes, just delay a little. You can get the benefits without doing anything, and who doesn't want to do good things."
The corner of the fat man's mouth sneered, "But just now, no one has forgotten, the most terrible crack in the alliance is suspicion." It would be interesting if Gang Fei refused to take over, this guy's identity was an official captain of the Sea of Strand, because Gang Fei was thinking about himself. And the director zhì, a genuine captain of the Strant Sea Country, was executed by us, and the relationship between the Aliens and Gangfei will inevitably have a serious rift. If at this time, the Burrows family exerts influence on the Council of the Sea of Strong, it is entirely possible that the fleet of the Sea of Strays will not arrive as scheduled, or be transferred back to ...... halfway" "The southern port area of Gangfei is an undefended area for our fleet, and a punch in the weak place can be worth ten punches in the strongest place! I wanted to sit back and enjoy it, but who knew that it was sold by the Agents like this, and the people of Gangfei would vomit blood!" The fat man laughed, and took out the copy of the text on the table with his hand
Flipping through the document that was waiting for his signature, he picked up the pen, and the fat man signed his name very neatly, and his mouth was still saying, "Look, I'm still very kind"
Lidastov was full of chills when he heard this, you are indeed merciful, but you have pushed the people of Gangfei into the fire pit, and they are not people inside and outside! But it is also, the thousand-year-old demon of the Burrows family, even if the soil is shoveled off, there will still be invisible roots lurking, it is better to send it out directly, isn't it just a founding country,
The creation of a district in the southern part of Gangfei for the Burrows family was hardly a loss to the empire.
Even if the Burrows family controls a small area, there is no capital, no army, and it cannot be greatly improved in a short period of time, but under the full penetration of the empire's trade lines, the small Burrows finally commanded to become an inseparable link in the interests of the empire.
With the help of the Berrows' network, the empire's power was more recognized in the Inland Sea region. borrowed the trick of laying eggs from chickens, and in the hands of His Majesty, he could not see his true face clearly
The next day. An announcement appeared in the central square of the city in Lisbonto,
The early Putau civilians quickly gathered around, it was about the punishment decision of the radical leader who had been rumored by the outside world for a long time, most of the Putao civilians did not know how to read, they curiously gathered in front of the poster, their eyes were very warm, and they looked at the avatar on the left side of the notice with great interest, "What is written on it?" Someone looked up and down at the poster, very disappointed, "That's that guy, right?" Someone pointed to the image and asked in a cautious whisper, "Such a person should have his head cut off!" Someone grinned, and the appearance of a person's avatar on the announcement was a precursor to the execution of a beheading by some unlawless guy, "Is it a beheading notice?" As soon as they talked about beheading, the citizens began to get excited, and talked about the fact that some time ago they cut off seventeen heads of the nobles in one go, which looked really a great event, and the commoners didn't care what the people who were haggard but still shouting slogans before dying were shouting, they were concerned about the executioner wearing a red hat on his head, whether he would wear red leather pants or blue leather pants that day, whether he would use the rumored "Death Roar" that cut off a hundred heads, or whether it was used specifically to punish the rebels. "They even bet that the death row inmates would pee their pants in fright, and every time a human head squirted out from the headless chest cavity like a squeezed tomato a few meters away, the crowd below would let out a cheer, "What a nostalgic day, watching these people who used to be high up, hacked to death like killing dogs, and I also spilled a bubble of urine in the mouth of a guy, who could only open his mouth wide,......" Someone let out a smug laugh from his mouth,
At this moment, a carriage with aristocratic decorations passed by not far away, and a young nobleman with a pale face, who looked like a wine barrel that had been soaked all night, and was wheeled by one hundred and eighty women, poked out of the carriage with half his head,
The heavy smell of wine on him indicated that he had just returned from the banquet,
Since the empire stabilized the situation in Putao from the beginning, the carnival of the Putao nobles has entered a heated process, many of them have made a lot of money in trade, and the status of the Putao nobles has also increased rapidly among the countries.
In the past, the humble psychology of the aristocracy of a small country was ignored by others, and suddenly erupted like a volcano.
They pursue the best wines and luxuries, and banquets are held one after another, typical of the nouveau riche mentality,
"Oh?" the young nobleman swept his gaze over the report, and after his body froze for a moment, he shouted in disbelief, "How is it possible, that guy is going to hand it over to Gangfeiren!" (to be continued......)
