Chapter 259: Initiation
In order to maintain their wealth and income, the big mine owners can only turn their attention to other sources of mining slaves, the turbulent Manyu military leaders are one of them, and the crocodile people of the desperate swamp are the second.
In recent years, the majority of the income of the League of Criminals has been the slave trade, and there is a tendency to convert to the original Bastille.
Most of the crocodile forces in the border cities are not clean, and there is no shortage of scum in any race, if there is no help from them, there is no way to get a large number of people from the crocodile people by relying on other forces alone.
As a result, relations between the two sides have deteriorated dramatically, and local conflicts have never been interrupted.
But it's one thing to know where you're in danger, it's another to reach a consensus.
There were hundreds of people, hundreds of smart people, each with one heart, each with one idea, like a mess tied in a heap, with a thousand clues.
It's not very difficult to twist them into a rope.
Especially when it comes to dominance, they are fighting for red faces one by one, and no one will let anyone.
What are you kidding, we are all the people of the god of water, why are you leading us? and not me leading you?
Having said that, if they could reach a consensus, it wouldn't be the mess they are now.
"If you want to reach an agreement on political opinions, you must achieve military unification, and as far as their Council of Elders is concerned, even if it is held for another half a year, they will not be able to fight for a result. Sean put a slice of evenly cut fish in the shabu-shabu and then rolled it into various dipping sauces and brought it to his mouth, almost without chewing, directly sliding it into his stomach, which is an ultimate pleasure.
Others follow suit, and every bite they take, they can't help but show a satisfied expression.
Since coming to this world, Sean rarely eats non-mature food, this year there is a lack of medical treatment, backward medical conditions, parasitic diseases, very difficult, the means that can be used, most of the poison that hurts the enemy is a thousand self-damage and eight hundred, and after the insecticide is completed, he also has a serious illness.
The original big knight Archer is the best negative teaching material, although it was a blessing in disguise, he found the opportunity to break through the champion knight, but his life hung by a thread, and if he was a little careless, he put his own life into it.
Therefore, even if he successfully advanced to the Grand Knight, Sean maintained a cautious attitude.
But there are always exceptions, and this dish is the one in front of you.
The fish they are now shabu is a specialty of the Danube River, and the crocodile people call it the silver wave fish, not only because they are silver-colored throughout, but also have the homonym of drawing the waves, this fish likes to chase the waves, and seeing them means that there are huge waves not far away.
The waterways of death, which were forbidden for the living, were their greatest paradise.
Due to their unique habits, their size is not large, but the meat is particularly firm, and the strength is not much worse than that of beef.
Especially when it is so soaked and half-cooked, it fully retains the original flavor, does not need too much sauce, only needs a bowl of salt water, and dip it in, which is supremely delicious.
Unfortunately, as the Desperate Nu River returns to the Danube, their numbers will not decrease dramatically, and there will not be so many dangerous waves to chase them, and they will no longer taste good, so they will naturally take the opportunity to feast on them.
After sending the eleven crocodile elders off the ship, the Rock did not return to Andes Inland Lake, but stationed on the spot, waiting for news from the crocodile people.
Unexpectedly, this wait was half a month, and the Elders Council of the Crocodile Clan held two meetings in three days, and it was held endlessly.
Think with your ass and know what they're doing.
The situation of the crocodiles is far more complicated than Sean and the others expected, and it is difficult to reach a consensus on this kind of parliamentary organizational structure, especially when it comes to a peaceful annexation with the Eternal Night Commander, because there are all kinds of voices in it.
"As I said before, this kind of thing has to rely on your own fists, only by fighting with them and beating them to be afraid, there is no need for us to beg for lowly or four, they honestly ask to join us. ”
Rabindranath Tagore shook his fist as he ate, still not forgetting to sell his theory of power.
"Drink wine, drink wine, eat meat, eat meat. McGee the Skull Crusher snorted while eating, and muttered, "You don't have to worry about this leisure, the matter of making a plan will be handed over to their military staff, those military staff officers, what is the name of the one who is all long, with a delicate heart, and a few more holes in the heart than ordinary people, I estimate that I have already prepared other backup means, rest assured, sooner or later there will be a battle that you can't finish." ”
Compared to the veteran of the Eternal Night Army, Tagore's time to join is too short after all, and his edge is more vigorous.
Now that McGee the Skullcrusher has learned to hide his clumsy and rarely expresses his opinions in various military and political meetings, this does not mean that his influence has become less, as long as the legions he controls are good enough and strong enough, no one will ignore his existence and disrespect his opinions.
This can be regarded as a symbol of maturity and stability, but he has greatly reduced this image by sandwiching vegetables and meat for the large-sized beauties around him, accompanied by a smile.
This beauty, who is taller than ordinary people even when she sits, is naturally the princess of the Cliff Clan, the leader of the barbarian mercenaries of the mountain Kentana, and the fourth wife of McGee the Skullcrusher.
The Eternal Night Leader is now in no war, and the mountain Kentana barbarian mercenaries have been pulled to work as construction workers, and she is basically idle.
This show of force to the crocodile people dragged her over, and no matter what, she is also an out-and-out champion knight.
Compared to her relatively well-proportioned size, her belly was a little big now, not because the Eternal Night Commander's food was too fat, but because she was pregnant.
Her current situation has once again been hammered, and the argument that the champion knight, although the body structure is the same as that of ordinary people, is actually another species.
She has been pregnant for a whole year and two months, and she has no intention of giving birth at all.
Because of this, McGee, the skull crusher, was not frightened, and Sean, who easily stopped treating people, personally checked his wife's condition.
According to the detection of the technique, the condition of Nicola's mother and child is extremely normal, either stillborn or deformed, or slightly slower in development, and now it is only three or four months old as a normal baby.
According to this posture, it is not impossible to be pregnant for three years before being born.
Now the person who cares most about the child in Nicola's belly is McGee the Skull, but Sean.
He was very curious about what kind of little monster the two champion knights, who were three years pregnant, were born.
Everything seems to be changing in this world, but Sean is not very surprised now, even if someone jumps out and tells him that he is the god of truth, he has to be half-convinced.
This princess of the Cliff Clan has a cold temperament and does not smile, if it weren't for the speed at which she eats, she is no worse than them, and she would think it is an ice sculpture.
Sean stuffed the last piece of fish meat into his mouth, stood up and let out a long breath and said: "We really don't have so much time to spend time with them, send a message to Chief of Staff Kelman, let him start it too, since they don't want to make a decision, let us help him make a decision, generals, gather your army, it won't be long before the war comes." ”
"Huh!" everyone in the audience threw away the dishes and chopsticks at the same time, and let out an excited shout.
They sharpened their knives for a thousand days, just waiting for Sean's words.
The Eternal Night Leader has officially entered a state of combat readiness, countless soldiers and supplies are gathered in Andes Inland Lake, and its unique geographical location is destined to be the most important war hub for the Eternal Night Army Leader in the future, whether it is leaving the Twin Cities to enter the Byron Alliance, or entering the Swamp of Despair through the Danube.
However, this has little to do with the people of the Eternal Night, how they should live, how they live, how they should build or how they should build.
This is related to the separation of military and political affairs of the Eternal Night Army, the professionalization of the army, and the existence of the attached engineer corps, so that they do not need to lead the people to serve in conscription.
In addition, the Eternal Night Military Leader itself is partial to military management, and many policies are relatively strict military and political policies, and they are all the same when they enter the war.
Just as Sean gave the order, mountain eagles soared into the air.
One of the mountain eagles had a particularly long message, starting from the Rock and returning to the main eagle's nest at Andes Inland Lake, and then taking off from here to the Twin Cities' transit eagle's nest before heading to its destination, another building ship, the Inheritance.
By the time the military chief of staff Kelman received the news, it had only been a day.
The young military chief of staff perked up and couldn't help laughing: "It's finally here, Captain Dornier, ready to carry out Plan One." ”
"Yes, Chief of Staff. Dornier, the young captain of the Inheritor, replied in a loud voice, "All set sail, the target is three forks." ”
Including the Inheritor, a fleet of more than 50 ships made up of mighty sailing down the river.
This fleet was rather peculiar, with only one-third of the assault ships, and the remaining two-thirds were pot-bellied merchant ships loaded with cargo.
As the Inheritor fleet set sail, a clipper broke off and headed straight for the Carthusian commander, and at the bow was the high-spirited young military chief of staff.
After landing, Kelman rode the mountain horse that had been prepared long ago, and galloped all the way, changing horses without changing people, and it took only three days to appear in Akmeiser's tent.
Along the way, except for the mountain road that was a little difficult to walk, and encountered a small accident, it was not as good as it was.
Not to mention the bandits who didn't open their eyes, they didn't even meet a fierce beast, and there was no difficulty in entering Akmaise's handsome tent, so they walked in naturally, and there was not even a single one who came up to check along the way, and everyone turned a blind eye to him, as if he was a transparent person.
Naturally, it wasn't Kelman who suddenly awakened and became a powerful warlock, or it wasn't that the Eternal Night Warlord had researched some secret weapon that could shield them from view.
No, it should be said that one of the powerful weapons of the Eternal Night Leader has come into effect - money and profit.
For this meeting, the Eternal Night Warlord secretly launched a crazy money offensive, exchanging benefits as an assist.
Money talks.
This phrase works well in any world.
The fact that the Kingsley family, led by the Carthusian army, is known for their wealth does not mean that they are not greedy.
On the contrary, because of the use of money as the glory of the family, from top to bottom, the importance of money is integrated into the bones, and the people in this military leader are far more greedy, lower in moral line, and more daring than other people in contact with the eternal night military leader.
But for the Eternal Night Lord, this is a good thing in the real world.
This matter was naturally approved by Akmaiser's nod.
The supreme commander of the Kingsley family's army, although he is not greedy for money and is not obsessed with beauty, he can't easily let go of power.
As long as there is a picture, it is easy to be targeted.
Akmesser is not a handsome and chic type, his facial features can only be said to be Zhouzheng, his skin is dark, his body is quite tall, his age is in the transition stage from young to middle-aged, and he is in the golden age of life, with both the robustness of young people and the maturity and stability of middle-aged people.
It's just that some half-gray hair makes him look a lot older, and his brows are always involuntarily locked, and it is obvious that he has been under a lot of pressure recently.
The demeanor is very aristocratic, no matter the words and deeds, or the dress, the gray and white hair is also meticulously managed.
This is a rigorous, old-fashioned person.
This is the first impression that the other party left on Kelman.
Akmaiser didn't talk nonsense, and went straight to the point: "Do you have a way to completely solve those rebellious armies?"
The rebel army in his mouth was the rebel army of the slave rebels led by Dickron.
"That's what I'm here for, but I need the general's cooperation. Kelman had no intention of befriending him, because it wasn't necessary, and it wouldn't be long before they would clash head-on, and now it would be just a pure exchange of interests.
"How do you need me to cooperate?" asked Akmesser quietly.
"The general's army moved closer to the south and let go of the three-way direction. Kelman replied quickly, clearly prepared.
As soon as the other party spoke, Akmesser instantly understood the other party's true intentions, and said with a sudden change of color: "You mean to let me let these rebels escape?"
"The general's task is to eliminate the rebellious army, there are many ways to eliminate it, and total annihilation is only one of the solutions, and there is a relatively simple way, which is to expel them, as long as they don't make trouble in the general's territory, the general has completed the task, isn't it?" Kelman said unhurriedly as he ignored his annoyance.
Finally, he added: "I can guarantee that they will not return to the territory guarded by the general halfway." ”
Akmaiser's eyes flickered, and he fell into a long silence, clearly weighing the pros and cons.
Kelman did not rush, quietly waiting for the other party's reply, always with a confident smile on his face, as if he was not at all worried that General Akmeiser would reject his proposal.
Because of the other party's situation, he can't refuse.
Dicron, who was secretly supported by the Eternal Night Commander, now used the Carthusian Commander as his own chessboard, maneuvering across it, though not defeating the regular army led by Axmesser head-on.
But under the heavy siege, the forces not only did not become smaller, but continued to grow and develop, which was the greatest humiliation to Akmaise.
However, the greatest pressure on Akmesser came from the ruler of the Carthusian army, Archduke Buck, and as the situation of the Swamp of Despair became clearer, his patience became less and less, and between his words, the idea of changing generals was born.
Continuing the stalemate would do no good to Akmaiser personally.
If he deliberately opened the gap and let go of the rebellious army led by Dicklon, it would certainly leave a stain on his marshal career and attract the displeasure of Archduke Buck.
If it were normal, it would be very likely to wait for a heavy punishment, but in the face of the greater temptation of the Swamp of Despair, Grand Duke Buck is more likely to turn a blind eye, after all, the ultimate goal has been achieved, isn't it?
Sure enough, Akmesser didn't think about it for a few seconds, then nodded and agreed: "Okay, it's a word." ”
"The general is really refreshing, let's make a decision, the general will wait for my news, as soon as a week, or as slow as two weeks, someone will inform the general of the specific implementation time, and he will leave. ”
Just like when he came, Kelman walked very briskly, and he stayed in Akmerse's tent for no more than ten minutes in total.
After leaving the camp, he rushed back non-stop, but the direction was a little off, and he went straight to the three-way junction, the destination of the Inheritor.
