Chapter 273 Hundred Miles Feixun
Qin Fang slowly galloped into the holy city of Jerusalem with two thousand cavalry of the Flying Bear Army.
This is perhaps the most famous city in the world.
This is the holy place shared by all Christians, Judaism and Celestial Christianity.
But at this moment, it couldn't stop the iron hooves of the Feixiong Army.
On both sides of the street, expressionless parishioners looked indifferently at the city's new conqueror. Perhaps because it is a common holy place for everyone, and the people of all religions come and go freely in the city, it is also an undefended city.
Perhaps that's why it's called the City of Peace in Hebrew.
Thirty miles outside the city, the Flying Heroes had received the Catholics who had tried to stop them from approaching, but they had only retreated after a moment's performance, and it was clear that the Flying Heroes would not stop their conquest because of them.
Now the city is finally trampled under his feet.
Now he can say that the entire end of the Mediterranean, directly opposite the Aegean Sea, Syria, Phoenicia and Canaan, from Damascus to Jerusalem, the entire vast coastline really fell into the hands of his Qin family.
This also meant that his three-month sweep of the entire Mediterranean coast was coming to an end, establishing the majesty of the Flying Heroes and establishing his own rule on this originally scattered land. This also indicates that the original actual control area of the Tianfang Marquis Qin family has also spread northward, and has truly become a member of the powerful forces on the Mediterranean coast.
Qin Fang patrolled the city beneath his feet, and the people here didn't seem to be too repulsive to his rule over it.
Perhaps they thought that the new Qin family would not change much about the status quo like the previous rulers, then they were probably miscalculated.
It's been too long for people here to feel the taste of power.
I'm afraid it's necessary for the Qin family to find an opportunity to show their authority here.
While thinking like this, Qin Fang was patrolling the new territory in the city accompanied by the leaders of the cultists in the city, when someone came up and whispered a few words in Qin Fang's ear. His face changed, and he left the parishionist leaders next to him on the spot.
The people who were left behind had ugly faces.
Qin Fang returned to the camp and saw the envoy, a large number of people had been surrounded in the tent, and the envoy was surrounded in the middle, each with a heavy face on his face, and when everyone saw Qin Fang coming, the messenger immediately fell down under Qin Fang's knees, fell on the ground and wept silently:
"Shizi! You will avenge everyone! It's miserable! The thieves were simply mad and dared to do such a thing that defied the condemnation of the world. The eldest marquis has fainted on the spot in anger, and he can't be a director, and now the whole family is waiting for you to come back and preside over the overall situation! ”
"What? The old man fainted? ”
The tent immediately became a mess, and some people even wanted to go up and scold the messenger by the neck.
Qin Fang snorted,
"Stop it, what's the mess?"
"The sky hasn't fallen yet!"
After reprimanding and drinking everyone, he asked again:
"Wait! Tell me what the hell is going on? ”
Qin Fang's eyes were firmly fixed on the envoy, trying to suppress the panic in his heart. Tianfang Hou fainted, this is simply a bolt from the blue, this is an unprecedented crisis for the Qin family, and now the entire Qin family is looking at themselves, the more they have to try to stabilize at this time, and the more they can't show their flaws.
Fortunately, the Qin family did not have such a scandal as brothers competing for the throne like other families, as the prince of Tianfang, Qin Fang has been the orthodox head of the Qin family for decades.
No one can sway his authority at this time.
The messenger cried out below:
"Canal, canal, thieves took the opportunity to blow up the stone squares dug on the narrowest section of the canal, the Yimer River, and blocked the river, 800,000 square meters, 800,000 square meters, the river workers worked hard all year, all of them were gone, dozens of river workers were killed, hundreds of river workers were injured, and most of the collapsed stones were poured into the river......"
Before the envoy finished speaking, Qin Fang already knew the seriousness of the matter.
The Yimer section is one of the sections of the northern section of the Yihe Canal, and it is also the narrowest section of the canal, and the artificial channel designed and excavated here in the engineering plan is only 50 meters wide, far from the narrowest part of the Suez Canal in later generations, which is about 200 meters wide.
Such a narrow river course is naturally prone to blockage.
If the matter is really as the messenger said, this section of the river is blocked, then the impact on the entire canal project is absolutely very fatal, at least it will greatly delay the construction period of the canal project, and in order to dredge this section of the river again, I am afraid that we will have to find a way to get a large number of slave laborers again to catch up with the construction period.
This pair of Tianfang Marquis Qin family will even put a heavier burden on the entire Tianzhu.
Especially the Qin family, the Qin family's investment in this canal is too great, and they are almost trying their best to promote this project, and this blow is definitely to the point where the Qin family is broken.
No matter who did this, if his purpose was to provoke the Qin family and Tianfang, then he, now, did it!
The green tendons on Qin Fang's head were exposed, and he could barely suppress the anger in his heart.
"Yes, yes! Who did that, now have you figured it out? And the old man, how did he faint. ”
The messenger did not dare to delay, and quickly replied:
"Please rest assured, the old man fainted and was just angry, and his body was fine, but he needed to rest temporarily, so he urgently summoned the prince to preside over the overall situation."
When this guy said this, everyone in the tent breathed a sigh of relief.
Anyway, the old marquis is fine.
For the Qin family's family regime, the old marquis is definitely the Zhenhai divine needle, and the Qin family can't accept the blow of losing the old marquis.
As for the canal, the messenger continued,
"I have found out afterwards that this incident was done by a group of thieves from abroad, these thieves are all Baiyi, all fierce and abnormal, after being found on the spot, all of them were killed in battle, leaving no living ......"
Well! It's all white? When Qin Fang heard this, he suddenly remembered a piece of news he had just gotten a few days ago, a message about a group of inexplicable Baiyi envoys from the West.
