When Wu Xin completely unified the Tripoli Oasis, His Majesty the Emperor in the Madrid court received another piece of good news.

In this day and age, there is a lot of good news for the Spaniards.

The Emperor's subordinates took control of a territory about the size of Spain proper.

Although the emperor was a member of the Habsburg family, in his office there is hardly a portrait of the ancestors of the royal family from the Swiss mountains.

All the portraits are portraits of the Trastamara family, whose history in Spain dates back to the time of Pepin the Short.

Now that the male line is naturally extinct, the Habsburgs inherited the precious Spanish throne because of their maternal lineage, and it is for this reason that the emperor deliberately took every opportunity to emphasize his relationship with the royal family of Trastamara.

Of course, in the office, in recent years, there have been more and more trophies of all kinds from the New World.

The battle of domination of the Aztec Empire and the divine feather crown of the Inca Empire are all treasures that the emperor never gets tired of seeing, and of course, these strange objects also have actual combat value.

"Since Cortés wants to call this territory California, then call it California, there's no silver in this place, right?" The Emperor's tone was nonchalant, he was actually sleepy, but this was an important meeting that had been scheduled for a long time, and the atmosphere of the Spanish court was never the same as that of France. "So, tell me, is Cortez a loyal servant?"

The emperor's bathroom was not much of an expense compared to the court of Paris, and it was actually quite a serious affair.

The anti-hedonistic atmosphere led both the monarch and his subjects to work hard and open up the Quartet, and for a time Spain almost trampled the world under its feet.

The emperor was an industrious and wise monarch, but even so, he could not judge the true value of North America, which at this time was still a steppe, from the report alone.

Of course, it's also because he has too many things to worry about. As a monarch is more concerned about the reliability of his own agents in the land than whether a piece of land is rich or not.

"Yes, Your Majesty, California is a barren land with only nomads, not even a so-called empire like Aztec. I believe that the south of Panama is the area worth visiting, and that it is not worth throwing troops to the north. "The man who spoke to the Emperor looked about as old as Cassano, and with the toil of the journey." Cortez is by no means an easy man to navigate. However, he was smart enough to know that being a loyal servant of the great Warlock royal family was his best choice, and without His Majesty's fleet, how many natives could he kill no matter how brave he was? ”

Exhaustion is a matter of course, even if it is a Spaniard. After more than a month of transatlantic travel, it must be the same.

"You said in your report that if I recalled him to Spain and gave him a high knighthood, he would be grateful, wouldn't he?" The emperor's seemingly careless words made the atmosphere in the whole room tense to the extreme. "And after he's gone, do you have the confidence to keep the situation going? In recent years, the silver of the Jumbo fleet has maintained an annual growth of 25 percent. The year before was less than a million, and last year I received one hundred and twenty thousand thalers of silver from the New World, can you sustain this growth, Marquis Gonzalez? ”

Spain's income from New World silver alone was about the same as all of Austria's income combined, so it is no wonder why the Emperor was so powerful.

in the room. The whole of Spain was present in the Council of State, but compared to the often chaotic meetings in Vienna, when the emperor spoke, his important ministers could only hold their breath, which had nothing to do with the personalities of the two monarchs. It's the difference that comes from different power bases and ancestry.

"The minister is confident that he can grasp the situation." Gonzalez's heart tightened suddenly, the area controlled by Cortez was extremely vast, including the whole of Mexico, part of the United States and most of the Central American countries known to Wu Xin, and it would definitely be extremely dangerous for such a force to be transferred. But since the Marquis Gonzalez dared to propose to the emperor, he naturally had eight or nine points of certainty, and the remaining one or two points were the danger sought by the rich. "But I thought it would be better to at least give him a marquis, or even a higher title, and allow him to keep all the wealth he had acquired in the New World, and not to recall the son he had with a local woman."

The Marquis Gonzalez was a marquis himself, and it was inappropriate to propose to the Emperor a pardon for a marquis and suggest that the duke was better.

But he couldn't help but do it, and although his mission was to spy on Cortez, he had great respect for this great hero in his heart.

None of the Spanish dukes and marquis before him had conquered such a large territory.

It is not easy to see the emperor alone, and he can be summoned overnight as soon as he goes ashore, although he is a Spanish nobleman, and he also has the strength of the "core" level, and even the main cadre of the three Spanish teams in the plane war.

However, his time was numbered, and he was anxious to pave the way for his children and grandchildren, so he went to work in the New World, opening up territory for the Emperor and monitoring Cortés, the great conqueror of the New World.

However, these credits were not enough, and he was able to return this time and be appointed governor of Mexico, still relying on the surprise brought by a junior who was not very brilliant in the past.

The emperor was noncommittal about his proposal, as if it were a bit too much to praise a hero who had conquered millions of square kilometers of land with such a limited honor.

This kind of control can indeed make the monarch appear more unfathomable and powerful.

Of course, the basis of all this is that he can assemble twenty galleons of 500 tons, plus 100 sailboats of more than 100 tons, in half a year.

Without this armada, it would not be unfathomable, but pretending to be a ghost.

"But the gift of His Majesty God in Silver City, all I can do is to send His Majesty back to Madrid as much as possible, and as for how much He has gifted, I cannot guarantee, no one can guarantee. I can only guarantee that the Gonzalez family will be at the service of His Majesty day and night. But gritting his teeth, the Marquis Gonzalez added.

The emperor listened to his words, but still had no expression.

With a wave of his hand, he drove away all the men in the room who were not reincarnators. Only one was left as an old butler who was older than Cassano and the Marquis of Gonzalez, almost dying.

"Tell me another thing, you said in your secret letter that the nearest sub-plane that was very close was drawn closer by your grandson, with my nephew in Tripoli?"

Wu Xin's career is not big in comparison. But it's not like it's not going unnoticed.

"It's all the majesty of the Warlock Royalty, and my grandson is just doing a little hard work." The Marquis of Gonzalez retreated and did not immediately cut off the credit.

"Don't be modest, my nephew isn't even an elite-level warlock, it must be your grandson who is stronger." However, the emperor has seen too much sycophants in his life, and he constantly reminds himself not to be fooled by these words, so that it has the opposite effect. "And our spellcaster costs so much, my nephew seems to have a secondary flame blade that is free of materials, but not your grandson's sword. His magic is useless. ”

Wu Xin has used the "Secondary Flame Blade" too many times on the island of Malta, and the Spanish intelligence agency has seen a material-free ability, but the emperor himself has several magic skills that can be exempted, so he doesn't feel anything.

"He's just an elite." The Marquis Gonzalez said with a still modest expression.

In order to be able to say this "humble word" in front of the emperor, the Gonzalez family has recently mobilized up and down, giving Raul Gonzalez an unknown number of elite-level nutrients, and even doing such a thing as collecting souls for him.

If this kind of thing is done with the soul of the enemy, it is also a taboo thing. Not to mention that the Gonzalez family treacherously went on a killing spree among the tribes of the New World who had converted to Ciric, once discovered by the Shirek Church. It must have been a big earthquake.

Once the incident happens, the emperor may not be able to protect them.

However, wealth and wealth are in danger, this is a secondary plane.

"Okay, good, Treon, you make sure the young people are united. Complete the capture mission. The Emperor then added, "But unity is unity, and we cannot but fight over the distribution of plane authority, and I love my family in Vienna." But the public is the public, the private is the private, you have to win this plane for Spain! ”

Tryan Gonzalez, this is the name of the Marquis of Gonzalez, which is different from the custom of the names of the former ministers of the Eastern Empire, here, the authority of the emperor is not so high, and the courtiers should also use honorifics, and it is a great favor to be called by the emperor's name.

The emperor took off a dark purple ring from his hand, and then handed it over: "You should also participate in the mission this time, take it, and use this treasure that has been passed down for more than ten generations in the Trastamara family to win the victory for Spain." ”

Marquis Gonzalez had expected the Emperor to give him a great treasure in order to capture it, but he was surprised by the value of the treasure.

This treasure has a clear inheritance, and it is famous among the Spanish aristocracy, called "Tears of the Purple Dragon", which is undoubtedly the treasure of the "Zhenguo", and it is the most precious kind of treasure of the same level.

The room remained silent, as if the non-existent Grand Administrator of Florentino had been awakened, and his cloudy eyes lit up.

The Marquis Gonzalez hurriedly knelt down on one knee, climbed in front of the emperor, bowed his head and took the small ring with both hands, and at the same time expressed his loyalty: "The minister must bow down and do his best to win this plane for His Majesty the Emperor and for Spain." ”

The Emperor waved his hand and signaled that the summons was over.

When the Marquis Gonzalez had left, the Emperor asked his old butler, "Have I invested too much?" What percentage of chances do you have now? ”

The old manager really thought that the emperor should not give such an important treasure, but even if he was extremely old, he did not directly rebuke the emperor, but only answered the second question: "Twenty and a half to three percent." ”

"You're so optimistic about them?!" However, the emperor actually knew the way his old butler spoke, and he knew that the other party really didn't think he should give such a valuable thing. "Didn't you comment on the Marquis of Gonzalez, who is a small and easy to do pioneering work?"

"Yes, so I think he can spy on Cortez, and even maintain the situation in Mexico, but it's really difficult for him to capture a secondary plane." Grand Governor Florentino rarely changed his opinion of a person, and even though the Marquis Gonzalez had worked hard, he was not recognized.

"Then you still say that there is a chance of two or three percent this time?" The Emperor felt inconsistencious, and he asked in surprise. "Although the goal is the lowest of the C-class planes, it is a true sub-plane and not an unstable fragment. It's definitely going to have to deal with core-level enemies. ”

"I'm very optimistic about His Majesty's nephews, and the members of the Warlock Royal Family are amazing." Florentino carefully read the report of the Marquis of Bazin. At that time, he was very concerned about the port of Tripoli, but what really impressed him was Wu Xin's recent actions.

Spain's efficient intelligence system allowed him to feel the skill and intrigue contained in Wu Xin's victory, although internal integration was always less glorious than external conquest, but Florentino knew it. Those who are good at fighting have no great feats.

"Not even the elite level." The old manager's words made the emperor think that he was patting on the back, and he was a little excited. "Let's not talk about it, let's study the production of sulfur mines in the Canary Islands, the advance base is in a hurry again, the sulfur reserves have been declining for three months in a row, and the governors of the New World will only shout, and keep asking me to place artillery and ammunition in their forts, but how do they know how many enemies I have to deal with, my navy cannot live without sulfur."

"It's a pity that the old minister can't go to the sulfur source on the main plane anymore. Canary Island is too far away for me. "Needless to say, the old manager took the initiative to take on the most dangerous job." Then let Lao Chen go to the Well of Colors again. ”

"Okay, let's go together." The Emperor looked up at the sky outside the window, and the "Well of Colors" was emitting a bright yellow glow representing Spain, which was hundreds of thousands of miles from the main plane, far more than the distance from Madrid to the Canary Islands.

"The old minister will go and prepare first." But the old manager went to the Well of Colors, but he couldn't go to the Canary Islands. "Old arms and legs, don't eat something good before work. It really doesn't work. ”

Looking at the old steward's withered knees and firm steps, the emperor was both relieved and worried in his heart.

……………….

Ladislaus also ended the meeting.

Wait until everyone else has exited the room. He leaned heavily against his chair.

Wu Xin was so tired, he just wanted to sigh, but suddenly his face was covered by something.

During the meeting, Sazastan, who had been quietly working as a paperweight on the table, suddenly jumped into Wu Xin's face.

"Ahh It hurts, what are you doing?! Wu Xin's head was knocked several times by Sazastan.

After some tossing, the demigod lich said suspiciously: "There is really no trace of the divine power of that guy in the dark sun, you have not been brainwashed by him, so what is going on with this set of methods?" ”

"What are you talking about. I am certainly a believer in the Lord of the Flames. Wu Xinyi yelled solemnly.

"This isn't magic, you can't understand a low-level life that can't understand eighth-level magic, and you haven't learned this kind of thing seriously in Vienna and Buda, how can you ............, do you know how much divine power you have sent to the dark sun with this method?! In particular, these two tactics are to mobilize the masses and coerce public opinion. The true election of the pope must also bow to the wind. This is the origin of Sazastan's suspicions, "I thought that day, he actually reformed not only Bulsha, but also you, this means, your father and the emperor will play so slippery, what is the matter with you." ”

"This ............... Gifted, gifted............" Wu Xin can't deny this, in the era of the first mate Wu Xin, the power of the government was unprecedentedly strong, and some valuable knowledge was no longer carefully preserved, so the dragon slaying book was written into the middle school textbook.

Maybe that's why Ciric let himself go?

Wu Xin shook his head and stopped thinking about this question: "Don't think about it all day long, what's going on with those two meat tickets I asked you to monitor." ”

"Everything is as you expected, their ransom should be coming soon." Sazastan said as he climbed back onto the table as a paperweight. "Are you sure you really want to get involved in such a dangerous thing?"

"So what's not? Where to go for the title of duke, and then for the rest of your life, fearing that it will be destroyed by any great power in one fell swoop? "Wu Xin actually has another worry." And the faith in the port of Tripoli is so hungry. ”

"Don't talk too much, come up, give me a hand, there is a hawksbill flying fish to be boiled today, and it will be a waste if you don't use your fireball technique............" Without Helsin, Wu Xin, a warlock, also has to help Sazastan............ (To be continued......)
