Chapter 584: The East Window Incident
Everyone is waiting, Hathaway is waiting for the situation to become more stable, Dietrich is waiting for further support from the Molaika Empire, and the Confederation of Southern Will is also stabilizing the occupation zone, but who will benefit in the end?
It seems to be an eternal strategy, but how to operate it is everyone's means.
After the Battle of Lirolux, some small and middle-aged nobles flocked to Hathaway, but not many of them were really powerful, and most of them were wall-to-wall grass. But this time is different, under the influence of Tucker and Prester, some influential families have also thrown themselves into Hathaway's camp, which means that the Bukharin people have been isolated, and the Fernando family in the northwest has presented Hathaway's letter of allegiance, under the double pressure of economic interests and the threat of force, Bruce has lost his former sharpness. Fernando was ultimately unable to resist the intense pressure from within the family and signed his name on the agreement to move to Mandi Gaza, knowing that the glory of the Fernando family would be gone.
In exchange, Hathaway generously compensated the Fernando family members for losing their land, and agreed that they could use the funds as shares to enter the Cordillera business and trading houses, which reassured the Fernando family members and finally believed that Hathaway did not mean to kill them all.
The fall of Atlanta and the surrender of the Pierceburg region closed the last two gates to Bukharin, who had become a caged bird, no matter how unwilling and struggling the Grand Duke of Erabeni was. None of them could escape the fate of being controlled, and the tragedy of the Fairman era would not be repeated, and Hathaway was confident that she could do so.
In exchange for the Cordillera army not entering Golandon and the Ellabeni family continuing to rule Bukharin, Bukharin would be forced to disband all of Bukharin's armed forces, including the Bukharin's Wizards, who would only formally retain three magicians and retain the Warhammer Knights' ranks, but the number of men would be limited to about three hundred, and they would be supervised by Cordillera personnel.
This is the most typical alliance under the city, but Erabeni had to swallow this bitter fruit, and the disbandment of Bukharin's infantry announced that Bukharin's hopes of making a comeback by force were completely shattered. They want to restore their former glory to independence. Perhaps the only hope was for Hathaway's complete failure.
The Cordillera army then marched into Fort Pierce and Atlanta, but it was rather low-key, and Hathaway did not want to provoke her neighbors, especially the Orcs of the Confederation of the Southern Will and the Northwestern Highlands.
Such a huge territory is in the bag. Even if you are quite mentally prepared. Hathaway still felt a sense of emptiness and helplessness...... Fort Pierce and its environs were much smaller than Bukharin. However, it was not inferior to the rest of Bukhalin except Golandon, especially the canal from Pierceburg to Golandon, which brought the two places closer together, and Hathaway believed that it would be beneficial for him to subdue the Bukharins by various economic means in the future.
"Why don't you take Maple Dew City in one fell swoop?" For Hathaway's sudden contraction of the command. Many people are puzzled by Petro. Husterdy took the opportunity to report to Hathaway.
"Petro, is this something worth your trip?"
Hathaway smiled: "If you think about it carefully, we will enter the southwest region now, and the opportunity is really good?" ”
Petro. Hughes frowned in bewilderment: "Why not, the little power in Dietrich's hands is not worth mentioning, and within a week, our army can drink horses in Maple Dew City." ”
"Oh? You seem to have a lot of confidence, Petro? Dietrich's little power is negligible, but don't you take into account the feelings of others? ”
See Petro. Hughes looked at him suspiciously, Hathaway smiled faintly, "Our good neighbors don't have such good self-cultivation, the neighbors are doing housework, they will definitely come to make peace, of course they can't, maybe they will be angry and roll up their sleeves and go into battle in person." ”
Petro. Hughes's face became unnatural, he was good at civil affairs, but he was not very proficient in military affairs, Wen Yan also clenched his fists in his hands, gritted his teeth and said: "You mean that those guys from the Moreka Empire are also going to interfere in the internal affairs of our Odiega?" ”
"Why not?" Hathaway shrugged indifferently and handed over some papers on the desk.
Petro. Hughes's gaze grew angry as he flipped through the documents, "What are these damn bastards who have the right to dictate to us Otiga?" Who do they think they are? It's so hateful, these shameless robbers, Dietrich, this foolish prince, is luring wolves into the house! ”
"Oh, Petro, be careful of who you are, and in whatever your state, please maintain the appearance of a noble gentleman." Hathaway shook her finger, "Don't be so excited, everything is what I expected, if they don't jump out, then I have to be really suspicious." ”
"What are you going to do?" Petro. Hughes finally finished reading what he was holding and handed it back.
"I didn't plan what to do. Doesn't Dietrich like working with the Molaika? Then let them cooperate and see how much Dietrich has to satisfy the appetites of those guys, I believe that cooperation without mutual sincerity will not last long, and soon they will get bored with each other. Hathaway laughed, "Well, I need some time to catch up, too." ”
"If you want to be idle, I'm afraid someone won't allow you to be idle." Petro. Hughes said.
"Oh?" Hathaway raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Do you remember that Bishop Beyoncé?" Petro. Hughes asked.
Beyoncé...... I remember. She's been dead for a long time. Hathaway pondered for a moment before she remembered the mastiarch.
"It's been a long time since she died, but the forces behind her have never stopped investigating." Petro. Hughes said.
"The forces behind you?" Hathaway's eyes flashed with surprise.
"Beyoncé is the daughter of the current Empress of the Balia Empire and was sent to the Church of Nature since she was a child. The suspicious team of adventurers that Cecia reported to you some time ago was sent by the Balia Empire. The police department is on a mission at a time. Stumbled upon the suspicious behavior of those people, so he came into contact with someone from the intelligence agency, and the two sides are now working on the matter together. ”
"According to the information obtained by the investigation team, it is believed that you have a lot to do with Beyoncé's death, and they have reported the relevant news to China, and they will send someone to attack you in the near future, and want to kidnap you while you are not in the mage tower. At this time...... It is estimated that the support of that squad will be there soon. ”
"The ghost lingers...... By the way, what are you going to do with those people? Hathaway asked.
"This case is now under the full authority of the intelligence services, without your orders. We didn't get our hands dirty. What surprised me the most was that there were two people who were instructors at the Cordillera Military Academy......"
Speaking of which, Petro. Hughes looked at Hathaway: "This shows that the other party has a plan, but fortunately it was discovered by the intelligence agency in time." Now Cecia is afraid of startling the snake. So ......"
"Cecia did the right thing."
Hathaway's face became more and more ugly. "Now for the arrest. It's easy to startle a snake...... These two people, don't bother, just oversee. And, in addition to that, to conduct a carpet survey of the entire territory, I would like to see how many people's hands have reached out to my territory! ”
When she said this, Hathaway's tone was already a little more calm!
Petro. Hughes nodded, also with a cold look, "Don't worry, this time, the police department will cooperate with the intelligence department to conduct a thorough investigation, as long as the spies I find out, they will definitely taste the sweetness!" ”
Hathaway suddenly came to the window, looking at the verdant scenery outside, and felt a little uneasy.
After being investigated by the Natural Church, she thought that the matter was over, at least there was no proof of death, so she did not let people continue to collect information about Beyoncé. But now it seems that the Empress Baria is even more ruthless, and even wants to kidnap her with a few 'trumped-up' investigation reports...... People with power are indeed capricious.
"If you really want to come, then come." Thinking about it, she can only face all this, after all, the other party is in the distant ice and snow continent, although it is an empire, it is not easy to interfere here!
If it's a large-scale attack, hum, naturally there are empires that see it as an invasion.
At this time, in the Balia Empire, there was an undercurrent. However, the Empress in the Imperial Capital remained calm, waiting for new information from the investigation team.
The news that came back last time made her drop a few sets of tea sets.
The strength of the other party is really likely to threaten Beyoncé's life, so you have to catch it and ask for clarification.
The Empress sat on the high seat, her eyes were very deep, as if they were an endless abyss, giving people a bottomless feeling, her lips trembled, as if she wanted to say something, but the sudden sound of footsteps outside interrupted her thoughts, and her eyes suddenly became keen, looking in the direction of the entrance of the palace.
"Your Majesty, there's new news back." The voice of a female officer sounded outside.
"Come in!"
After receiving the order from the Empress, the female officer walked in, and in front of the Empress, she said with a respectful face: "Your Majesty, this is a new secret report. ”
"Bring it." The Empress said.
The female officer walked over with her head bowed and presented a secret report with both hands.
The Empress took it in her hand: "You go down." ”
"Yes." The female officer still lowered her head and slowly retreated.
After reading the contents of the secret report, the empress's face changed very terrified.
"Hathaway, if it's really your reason, I won't let you go." Throwing the letter at his feet, the Empress's voice carried a kind of coldness.
After receiving this secret report, the empress did not receive anyone for about a week, and some ministers came to ask for a meeting, but they were all pushed that the empress was thinking about things and did not see outsiders for the time being.
Finally, on the ninth day of May, the Empress in formal dress walked out of her room, and immediately she issued an order, an arrest warrant!
She ordered an army, aboard a battleship, to go to the Otiga Empire for secret arrests!
Under the dark night sky, horses neighed, and hundreds of elite warriors were ready to go.
In order to be able to arrest Hathaway back, the Empress even ordered the mage and priest to accompany her, and it was necessary to arrest Hathaway, the suspect!
When a large number of soldiers, knights, mages, priests, and druids boarded a ship, the Empress climbed high and looked in the direction of the Otiga Empire, her eyes filled with deep hatred.
"My lord, here they are!"
Cecia. Hughes's office suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps, and then someone pushed the door open, ran into her office, and reported loudly. "It's coming, it's coming, what's all the fuss! Take your time. "Cecia. Hughes frowned.
"There's a message from the Mage Tower just now, saying that there is a suspicious ship heading this way! According to the observation and detection information on the side of the Mage Tower, there are many high-level professionals on this ship! There is at least one level eight mage power fluctuation, and there are three level six druid powers, they are definitely not good! ”
"I already know!"
Hathaway came to the window and replied rather indifferently, as if it were all just a drill, or maybe she didn't take it as a serious matter at all!
Actually, her heart is not at peace.
With the news of the so-called mysterious organization, Hathaway got the news early on...... Even the route is known.
In order to arrest her this time, the Balia Empire actually sent such a large-scale manpower, which was really a bit unexpected to him, it seems that the other party is holding the mentality that it is inevitable to win this time!
At Yale Harbor, there is a navy stationed there, which can defend at least for a while if it openly confronts the other side.
I am confident that I will *********** hit the water for 3,000 miles in 200 years***********
