Chapter 1410: The Land of Chaos
Although no one knows the real situation of the Southeast Peninsula whether it is really so worthless, political considerations alone are enough for the two countries to do it. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
It is impossible for the two countries, which are mortal enemies, to abandon the southeastern peninsula on their own, so that the other side will occupy a new province of land for nothing.
Of course, it is even more impossible for them to add a main battlefield to a worthless place, so after some temptation, the two countries have a tacit understanding to abandon the southeast peninsula aside.
Of course, the two countries will never allow this southeast peninsula to take advantage of themselves, so they deliberately support multiple forces on this peninsula, and also deliberately unite to uproot those forces that they have accidentally neglected and have taken advantage of the opportunity to thrive.
After a few times, the forces on the southeast peninsula are as they are now, to the point that the two major powers that started it are surprised.
To this extent, the two great powers have also completely relieved themselves to fend for themselves.
The southeastern peninsula is located in a coastal area of the Haequan province of the Augustus Empire, and there is a building with a stone base and a wood body, about a dozen meters high and about a thousand meters in circumference, standing on a high ground.
Surrounding the building are a dense patch of thatched-roof houses, with the occasional large house with glazed tiles.
When you see this, you know that the somewhat strange building is the castle where the masterminds of the forces that rule this area live.
However, don't look at this castle, it is not even as good as the county seat of the Augustus Empire, but it is a fortified city on the southeast peninsula. This castle has a nice name - Bright Moon City.
At this moment, in the first place in the tallest building in Bright Moon City, there was a big man with a fierce and fierce face and a strong body, and he said to a strong man standing in front of him, who was also strong: "What's the matter with Peter's two people? I said that I would suspend it for a few days, but now that thirteen days have passed, why hasn't the dock been reopened yet? Are they ready to break their covenant? ”
This strong man had a shrewdness that did not match his appearance, and he smiled and bowed, and said, "My lord, Peter and Kate are in trouble, they sent people to attack a major lord who occupied the smuggling route, but the whole army was wiped out, and it gave them a headache. ”
For some reason, the city lord smiled when he heard of Peter's defeat.
"A small major can occupy a smuggling line, and let people wipe out the attackers who are sent to them? Peter and Kate are really useless. How many people did Kate send? ”
The latter sentence, looking at the casual appearance of the city lord, knew that it was a casual inquiry.
"My lord, according to intelligence, the other party only has seven or eight hundred people, and Kate has sent two brigades." The strong man said.
"Oh, that major's troops are so powerful, five or six hundred people can win a complete victory? Are you sure that the major has no background? The city lord asked, touching his chin.
The strong man nodded and said: "Your Majesty can only find out that he has no background at all, if it is not true, then he is hiding too deeply." However, his subordinates guessed that it should be the former, after all, it was impossible for a person with a background to stay in the territory of the major. ”
The city lord sighed and said: "Well, anyway, we are not from the empire, we don't have to care about so many things, now that the smuggling line is broken, we have a backlog of goods here, and the merchants have opinions, if we don't open it as soon as possible, our funds will be in short supply, and we need money to do anything." Just to keep those two guys from knowing that we only have one source of goods, we have to endure it, after all, we act like we have several sources of goods in front of them. ”
"So can we encourage a few gangs of rogues to attack that major leader?" The strong man asked.
"Of course, it's also a shame for Kate, if the smuggling dock falls into my hands, those two guys will definitely not dare to chirp crookedly when they share dividends!
"I'll leave this matter to you, but those rogues are lower in combat than Kate's two brigades, remember to encourage more." The city lord laughed.
"Yes."
When the strong man was about to retreat, a carrier pigeon flew in.
The city lord let the strong man stay, and after reading the letter carried by the carrier pigeon, he handed the letter to the strong man, and said with a smile: "Peter and Kate must have been caught by the major, otherwise they wouldn't have asked if they wanted the major to join, hum, look at the tone of the letter, it almost implies that I must let the major join." ”
"My lord, how do you decide? They're the snakes of the land. The strong man asked.
"Hehe, of course I agree, after all, we have a deal like this, it doesn't matter if there are many people or few people." The city lord laughed.
"In that case, do we still need to let those rogues attack the Major Leader?" The strong man asked again.
"Of course, continue to attack, I still expect them to be able to occupy that place, not to mention that the major has to leave obediently if the territory is lost, and we who occupy the dock can take the lion's share when distributing dividends." The main road of the city.
The strong man hesitated a little: "But wouldn't this be ......?"
He can't say the word "backsliding", how can he send people to attack while agreeing to others to join the gang?
"I know what you want to say, but don't forget the conditions offered by the person who contacted us last time, although they have a long-term relationship with Peter, but in order for my family to develop by leaps and bounds, I can't say that I have to change partners, anyway, who sells is not selling?"
Speaking of this, the city lord saw the demeanor of the strong man who wanted to say something, waved his hand and smiled: "Of course, this is also a temptation, if that major can't stop the rogue, then he doesn't have the ability to cooperate with us, if he is strong, I am also willing to continue to cooperate with my old partner."
"You can reply to the letter to agree, and let Peter and the others meet in the major in ten days, we and the major will be separated by a sea area, and the rogue can rush up in half a day, ten days is enough for those untouchables to fight back and forth."
The strong man, who had already figured out what was going on, immediately changed to a reverent expression.
"The lord is wise, as long as the wind is released, the wild warriors in the city who have no ability but like to make trouble will definitely run over there, without these guys, the security of the city will also be better, and the merchants don't have to worry about it."
"Hehe, that's not all, you tell them that as long as they loot the imperial weapons, the city lord will buy them at a high price, and at the same time you send people to pay attention to these rogues to see if there are any talents.
"You must know that outstanding talents will only appear in war, and once you find them, recruit them back immediately, so that my family will be stronger!"
"Yes, the lord is wise, and his subordinates obey orders." The strong man saluted the city lord with a reverent face.
Looking at the back of the strong man leaving, the city lord smiled.
"Hehe, Peter and Kate, although I have made a lot of money from you, don't blame me for selling you, who told your opponent to give me more benefits than you give? What is credibility? It's all for the sake of profit! ”
As soon as the order was delivered, the towns around Bright Moon City immediately boiled, and countless thin, barefoot, bamboo-speared or a dilapidated sword-eyed man rushed out of the thatched hut, and the roaring stream of people rushed to the seashore in dozens of streams.
Ou Di, who was rushing back with a large number of supplies, said to Locke and Luo Fei a little proudly: "Aren't you surprised that those two adults agreed to our request so easily? ”
Locke and Luo Fei glanced at each other suspiciously, and then scratched their heads at the same time.
"Uncle, what are you talking about? What did you ask us for? Do we need permission to come to town to buy something? ”
When Odi heard this, he slapped his forehead and lamented, "Oh my God! Dare you come out with me, I don't know what you're going to do? I'm by you! ”
Ou Di was completely speechless, and when he went out a few days ago, he specially told them about the situation, asking them to wake up and pay attention, but they didn't expect them to think they were here to buy something.
Alas, it's better not to let them get in touch with other things in the future, they are only suitable for fighting on the battlefield, and being a bodyguard is not suitable at all!
Odi tossed the two fools aside, and said to the few specially selected civilian guards he had brought with him, "Do you know what's going on?" ”
A few people who snickered at Locke and Luo Fei's stupidity immediately began to think.
Of course, they knew that Ou Di was the number one important subordinate under Lord Zhao Hu, and it could be said that a large part of their future was in his hands, so they racked their brains about Ou Di's questioning, and were ready to make a good impression on this leader of the guards.
"What does this have to do with us catching them?" A personal guard rushed to say, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was despised, such a simple reason, does the uncle still want to ask?
"Is it because they find that they will lose more than they gain by confronting us?" One of the guards spoke up.
"In my opinion, the other party is a rat trap, and the second is that our demands have not hurt their roots, and at the same time, we are not mortal enemies with them, but only a conflict of interest in money." Another guard said.
The guard's words made Ody smile and nod, this guard named Oaked is good.
After they had come up with various reasons, Odi asked again, "So why do you think they would let us join the game so easily?" ”
"In the next thought, first, the important smuggling route is in the hands of Lord Zhao Hu, and it will be difficult for them to develop new routes, and second, I believe that this kind of smuggling activity should be operated by each of them with a sum of money, so it is ......."
The guards' words made Odi nod his head, and he was very relieved.
