Chapter 466: Castle Fortress, Make a Trade (Ask for Subscription~)
Of course, with Weiyun's ability, whether it is a mechanism person that can let people enter and operate, or a puppet puppet that can directly fight automatically, it can easily gain the trust of those hillbillies, so as to get their resource support, for this, Weiyun is still very confident.
"So it should be coming soon, right? It is said to have been built just off the border. ”
Before setting out for the Far North, Weiyun had already inquired in a nearby city, and according to some people who had fled from the border area, not far from the border, the fortress castle of the alien people in the north had been established.
They already have a somewhat unscrupulous feeling, although they have not yet blatantly attacked the empire, but they are constantly exerting pressure on the border.
And the imperial troops stationed on the border line have even strategically abandoned some territory and shrunk back.
From this, it can also be seen that the empire has indeed decayed very badly, and the border areas in the north of the empire have almost become a racetrack for foreign peoples in the north.
However, the imperial capital is still unaware of this situation, and the bureaucrats in the border areas have not yet passed on the news that the alien people in the north have grown stronger, and none of them are willing to take responsibility for this.
Everyone had the mentality of getting by, thinking that no matter what, those foreign nations would not dare to attack the empire on a large scale, sacrificing the fart people in the border areas in exchange for peace, why not?
This is just like the rebellion of the ethnic minorities in the southwest of the empire before, and it was also when the situation was too urgent to deal with that the imperial capital learned the truth.
The people of the states who lived in the empire were really oppressed and had no choice but to start a rebellion. But they are not the same as the aliens, they are imperials, they are just a minority.
Therefore, their army was far less numerous than that of the alien nations, and they barely managed to make up only 10,000 people, which could not be compared with the four or five hundred thousand troops of the alien nations in the north in the future, but with the geographical advantage of the southwest, they still defeated the local imperial army one after another.
In the end, the local people couldn't stand it, and they finally reported the news of the rebellion of the Bang people, and it was also Estes who led the army to quell the rebellion, and she easily destroyed the 10,000 troops of the Bang people.
The behemoth of the empire has been rotten from the inside out, and a large part of the local inaction comes from the instructions of the "minister", the supreme ruler of the empire.
In order not to let the messy news disturb the growth of the "Little Majesty", he first let the local government deal with the troublesome things on its own, as long as the taxes are paid to him, he doesn't care whether the people are doing well or not, anyway, as long as the little emperor is controlled, then he can act recklessly.
"But ah, as long as there are enough Imperial Appliance users who are loyal to the Empire, then even if the Empire is completely rotten, no one can destroy it."
Looking at the sturdy fortress in front of him, which had been completed and put into use, Weiyun shook his head and felt sad for them, although Numa Seka worked so hard, step by step, and painstakingly planned, but in the face of absolute strength, everything they did was meaningless.
After all, what they have to face is an existence that can freeze time and space, an existence that freezes mountains and rivers with a wave of their hands, and can create meteorite-like ice balls with a single hand.
Estes, this bug-like guy, is really terrifying and abnormal, in addition to not being able to elementalize, you say that she is a certain general, you dare to believe it, according to strength, she is really not necessarily weaker than the pheasant, although she can't be elementalized, but she can freeze time and space.
"Who?!"
When Weiyun was looking at this sturdy and majestic fortress castle with emotion, the guards above the castle spotted him.
After all, Weiyun stood in front of the city gate, indeed a little conspicuous, wearing a snow costume, a fur collar cloak hanging down to his ankles, no part of his body was wet, not even a single snowflake was stained, for people who really lived in the extremely cold land, he looked conspicuous like a beacon at night.
"Oh? I am a guest from the south, and I would like to meet your prince Numa Seka, with whom I have a business. ”
Weiyun came back to his senses and replied to the castle guard who was questioning.
After hearing Weiyun's answer, the voices on the city wall became noisy, as if they were discussing something.
Weiyun listened with his ears and found that they were struggling with whether to let him in, logically speaking, they couldn't let strangers enter this castle casually, after all, this is not a city, this is a military castle, not anyone who wants to enter can enter.
But on the other hand, they were full of respect for this person to be able to come here alone in this weather, they stood guard in rotation with several times the usual number of people, and they were about to freeze, and the person under the city tower was so calm, which made them admire it very much.
The people of the northern alien peoples respected the strong, which was one of the reasons why Numa Sekka was so prestigious, not only for his military and political victories, but also for his martial arts, which he overcame the unruly tribal leaders.
After some discussion, they finally decided to use a hanging basket to hang Weiyun up, on the one hand, out of respect, and on the other hand, they felt that there were many people on their side, and even if Weiyun wanted to make trouble, they could solve him.
And looking at the hanging basket that was put down from the city wall, Weiyun smiled and didn't go up, he directly stepped hard, and jumped on top of the city tower by jumping with a catapult.
His move stunned everyone in the castle, and the soldier who pulled the hanging basket accidentally didn't catch it, and fell under the city tower with a "bang".
"Since you have agreed, then I will come up by myself, and I won't trouble you to pull me up."
Weiyun nodded, glanced at the dozens of people on the city wall, and finally locked his eyes on a person who looked like a leader.
"Take me to your prince Numa Seka, or tell me where he is now, and I can go myself."
Weiyun's words are very direct, after all, the land of the extreme north is so big, he can't rely on himself to find it little by little, the easiest way is to find it directly through the army, whether it is someone else or he goes by himself, this method can always find people.
"Wait... Wait a minute! ”
The squad leader swallowed and spat, and said with some stumbling.
"Who the hell are you?!"
Of course they will be shocked, after all, this is a military castle, and the height of the city wall is not a joke, but this guy in front of him jumped up all of a sudden, isn't it a joke? So what was the purpose of building this wall?
"I'm a craftsman, a trap master, a puppet master, and I have some works that can improve the combat capabilities of the army, and I hope to make a deal with Numa Seka."
Weiyun patiently explained, and as he spoke, he took out a Gatling, and under the stunned gaze of everyone, he swept towards the hanging basket under the castle tower.
Looking at the terrifying power of that magical weapon, the squad leader's eyes turned green, and he ran out almost immediately, leaving only a word for Weiyun.
"Please wait a moment, go to the city tower and drink a cup of hot soup first, and I will go to report immediately!"
Weiyun smiled, and secretly said to the hillbilly who didn't know anything, the technology of this world has already developed firearms, although the ones that can really be promoted and manufactured are still very rudimentary firearms.
But whether it is an emperor or a minister, there are excellent gun-type ones in them, and the power is not weak, so it can only be said that these foreign nations are indeed synonymous with barbarism and backwardness.
