66. The Beginning of the Scourge of the Dead (II)

“…… You most despicable of Eastern barbarians, vicious criminals who invade the sacred territory of the Empire, deserve nothing more than a pile of stinking carrion in the rubbish and dust! However, the great Roman emperor and the benevolent Roman people are willing to give you a chance to live!

See the Venetian merchant ships over there? As long as you swear to leave the land of Europe and never return, we can get you on board and cross the Channel! Well, hurry up and choose! Will you be killed here, or will you go back to your Asian hometown? Our swords are hungry and thirsty! ”

Listening to the shouts of the interpreter of the Eastern Roman Empire on the other side, he looked back at a few Venetian merchant ships that had dropped their sails and were approaching the beach here.

- Just let us go safely? When did these Greeks, who had always been insidious and despicable, become so tolerant and generous?

However, at this time, the situation of these Turkish miscellaneous refugees is at the end of the road, and if they do not agree, they will end up in a dead end. In the case that there is still a way to live, even if it is a rebellious and fierce Turk, it will not take the initiative to seek death without meaning.

What's more, now that the Ottoman Turkish Empire has completely collapsed and the European continent is no longer able to gain a foothold, these Turkish immigrants trapped in Eastern Europe originally had the idea of withdrawing to Asia to regroup and restore their strength. Since the Greeks were willing to send them across the sea for free, they could save money on ferry tickets...... Anyway, in Said's opinion, they will one day fight back to take revenge.

Well? That vow of never return, you say? Ouch, please don't be too pure! Is there any ruthless person in this world who doesn't take oaths as farts?

So, after a brief discussion, the hedgehog gathered on this beach for Turkish refugees. Several delegates were sent out and respectfully expressed to the Eastern Roman army that they were willing to obey the Roman emperor's arrangement, and swore to leave Europe forever and cross the sea to return to their homeland in Asia Minor.

“…… Great, congratulations on making a wise choice! The swaggering Eastern Roman interpreter said arrogantly, then looked back at Emperor Constantine XI standing under the double-headed eagle, and only after seeing the emperor's nod did he raise his arm and gesture.

Next, the Eastern Roman Empire's military array split a road from the center. Dozens of unkempt Turkish prisoners of war, driven by sticks and whips, laboriously dragged a dozen heavy carts toward the refugees on the beach. Saeed squinted his eyes and took a closer look, spotting some worn-out clothes, quilts, and blankets piled up on the cart. There was also black bread as hard as wood and rough dough mixed with many impurities, plus some clay pots, baskets and other miscellaneous items. It's not a valuable thing, though. But it's all things that you need when you travel.

“…… This is the dry food and clothes that the benevolent Emperor Bixia has given you, so that you will not starve to death and freeze to death on the way to escape! Alright, you've got your stuff and get out of here! Never appear in front of us again, or the most terrible death awaits you! ”

The interpreter said this to the bewildered Turkish refugees in a tone of superiority, as if they were sending beggars.

And Saeed, who mingled in the crowd. Although it sounded a little uncomfortable, he still rushed to pounce and competed with the others for the supplies on the cart - even if it was an enemy's handout, after all, it was something that didn't need money. If you don't take it for nothing, you won't take it! Even if you successfully cross the sea to Asia this time, you may not be able to find a place to mix rice and settle down right away. It's better to have some food and clothes in your hands than to starve to death on the way, isn't it?

However, what these Turks who were scrambling for black bread and old blankets never expected was that what they were fighting for each other at this time was not a relief provided by the Eastern Roman Emperor out of kindness, but a source of nightmares that were about to pit the whole of Asia Minor, and even the whole Shijie!

In short, through a combination of hard and soft methods, the Eastern Roman Empire easily recovered the Gallipoli Peninsula, which had been lost for nearly a hundred years, and began to set its eyes on the Asian territories of the East, inspired by victories and miracles......

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

A few hours later, Hyundai Shijie on the other side of the wormhole, the Japan Atomic Disaster Prevention and Treatment Company in Chinatown, North Exit, Ikebukuro-ku, Tokyo

The strangers who did not come to the front with former Prime Minister Yuki Kotori were gathered in the spacious and bright conference room, watching the battle on the Gallipoli Peninsula on the LCD TV, and the scene of Turkish refugees helping the elderly and children to board a boat and cross the sea.

-- These are all live footage taken secretly by former Prime Minister Masahiro Kotori using a video camera disguised as the statue of Our Lady in the battlefield.

“…… Tsk, actually use Venetian merchant ships for transshipment? That's a ...... Kill two birds with one stone! the Turks and Venetians! ”

Seeing the scene of the Turks rushing for the "relief goods", Wang Qiu, who knew the inside story well, couldn't help but smack his lips and sighed.

-- In fact, the batch of "humanitarian relief supplies" distributed to the Turkish refugees were all infused bacteriological weapons. The clothes and blankets collected from the citizens of Constantinople were repeatedly impregnated by undisciplined travelers with cultures of various virulent infectious diseases such as typhoid, plague, and influenza, following the practice of the legendary Japanese Unit 731. The black bread and coarse bread are mixed with highly pathogenic tuberculosis bacilli and cholera bacteria, and a lot of wood chips and gravel are deliberately added to cover up the odor.

As for the disease-spreading fleas and rats, they have long been placed in the cotton wool of the kimono quilt in the cabin of the ferry. Although the space radiation of the wormhole itself has about half the chance of killing bacteria and insects, even the remaining half of the number is enough to spread the disease.

It is conceivable that these unfortunate Turks, who had taken bacteriological weapons as good things, immediately became the advance army to spread the plague after crossing the sea and landing in Asia Minor, bringing the disease wherever they went, helping the emperor to drastically reduce the number of enemies...... And the Venetian merchant ships carrying these sources of infection could not escape the clutches of the plague. The shadow of death will soon be spread to the entire Mediterranean by sea.

In addition, in order to combat the mobility of the Turkish nomads and eliminate the horses they relied on for hegemony, Kotori Yu Mahaku also managed to get N kinds of viruses and germs of virulent horse plague and released them through various channels, so as to make the Turkish cavalry degenerate into infantry as soon as possible, and the infantry degenerate into corpses.

Zuihou, in order to avenge the hatred of the fall of Moria's territory, Emperor Constantine XI specially prepared two super gift packages for the Governor of Venice and his second brother Demetus, who had a back-and-mind rebellious heart, - the legendary "3000 series of your life" super gift package!

According to Wang Qiu's observations. At the time of the Tokyo Mutiny, Kotori Yumashiro, who served as the prime minister of Japan, was full of the atmosphere of house decay and secondary school, but it still seemed to be more disciplined. Even counterinsurgency forces have to hesitate to use cloudburst bombs on the streets of Tokyo. for fear of harming too many innocent civilians...... But once you cross over to a different shijie, including the little bird You Zhenbai, the middle two disease Lori and Wang Qiu himself. All of a sudden, there is no lower limit to discipline. Chemical, biological and nuclear weapons (the "dirty bomb" of nuclear contamination) dare to be used indiscriminately.

As for the millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of people who will die as a result, the traversers invariably ignore it at all, and even feel very honored - I remember that there is a poem that describes it like this: "Killing one is a sin, and slaughtering ten thousand is a hero." Slaughter 9 million, that is, the male of the male! ”

In short, this is no longer a simple lack of discipline, but a madness and the extermination of humanity!

So far, according to Wang Qiu's estimates. Their "great achievements" in anti-human and anti-civilization far surpass all terrorist and fascist organizations in the history of their own plane, and I am afraid that even Hitler will be ashamed of himself, and Hamas and his ilk can only hope for it......

Alas. Could it be that we really treat the human beings of the alien Shijie as NPCs in computer games, and it doesn't matter how they kill them?

Looking at the Turkish refugees on the screen, unknowingly embarking on the painful road of death, Wang Qiu couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, feeling that the only little discipline in his heart was completely out of his mind.

――――――――――――――――――――――――

In another time, after watching the Turks board the Venetian Republic and leave the land of Europe, Emperor Constantine XI returned to his royal tent and summoned the Venetian ambassador Girolamo, who had come with his army to watch the battle. Minoto.

“…… Thank you, Mr. Ambassador, for liaising with the state merchant fleet in Venice for me to transport away these Turkish pagans stranded in Europe, and for solving a big problem for me. In the simple imperial tent, Emperor Constantine XI took out a carved glass bottle from the wooden box, poured a glass of wine for the ambassador of Minotto, and opened his mouth with a nonchalant expression, "...... It makes me very happy and feels like we can continue to work together. ”

“…… Your satisfaction is my pleasure, dear bixia! Your kindness and forgiveness, as well as your devotion to God, are admirable. ”

Ambassador Minotto said with a professional smirk, "...... The removal of the Turks from the Gallipoli Peninsula is considered a free service from the Republic. I hope that the small offenses of the past will not affect the prospects for future cooperation between our two countries......"

- Although the Republic of Venice had just conquered Moria in the Peloponnese, the Eastern Roman Empire had lost an overseas possession and had a great grudge against Constantine XI. But the sane Venetian governor Francesco. Foscali did not intend to completely break with the Eastern Roman Empire, which had only one city left - first, Constantinople was the only choke point from the Black Sea to the Mediterranean, and if relations were broken, it would seriously affect the profits of trade. Secondly, at present, the main force of the Venetian army is deeply trapped in the battlefield of Milan, and the navy is preparing to take advantage of the fire to seize a number of trading ports under the rule of the Turks, and there is really no spare energy to continue to entangle with the Eastern Roman Emperor in Constantinople.

Therefore, according to the instructions of the governor of Foscali, the ambassador of Minotto has been working hard in Constantinople for a while, bribing the emperor's important ministers on the one hand, releasing "goodwill" on the other, and even contacting the "Tatar crusaders" to find a channel for the supply of high-quality spices.

However, judging from the emperor's current attitude, Ambassador Minotto feels that his previous public relations mediation seems to have not been in vain.

“…… A little offense? Mr. Ambassador, you can really speak. Having seized two-thirds of the remaining territory of the Eastern Roman Empire in one fell swoop, and killed one of my closest brothers alive, can it still be considered a small offense? ”

Emperor Constantine XI shook his head with a wry smile and replied helplessly, "...... All right! I'm not someone who can't admit reality. Although I was annoyed by the fall of Moria and saddened by the death of Thomas, the declining Roman Empire could no longer afford to take care of such a distant overseas territory. And the merchant fleets of the Italian city-states are even more related to the lives of the citizens of Constantinople......"

As he spoke, he took out two heavily sealed brass cylinders from a delicate sandalwood chest. The surface of the cylinder is engraved with the emblem of the double-headed eagle of the Eastern Roman Empire, and a small label with the recipient's name is fixed on the top of the cylinder.

“…… Mr. Ambassador, these are two diplomatic letters addressed to the Governor of your country, Governor of Forscali, and to my brother Demetus, who has committed treason and homicide...... Moria's change of hands is a foregone conclusion, and it is not good to continue the stalemate, and I intend to discuss with them in good faith and come up with a follow-up solution that is acceptable to all parties. I hope you will be able to hand over the letterhead as soon as possible......"

In response to this, Ambassador Minotto immediately put away the cylinder excitedly, patted his chest and promised to return to the Constantinople concession immediately and arrange for a clipper to cross the sea to deliver the letter.

However, looking at the back of Ambassador Minotto turning away, Constantine XI's eyes showed a terrifying coldness.

-- In these two tightly sealed brass cylinders, not only the emperor's handwritten letter was placed, but also some seemingly ordinary white powder. While Europeans in the Middle Ages would never have recognized what it was, in the 21st century, it is a favorite of Western terrorists, a biological weapon that has caused many panic incidents in the United States and made people fearful - a biological warfare agent containing Bacillus anthracis spores!

This is Emperor Constantine XI's "Kill You 3000 Series" Super Pack!

“…… Hmph, first forcibly extorted so much booty from me to pay off old debts, and then took away most of my territory in one go, causing me to shrink from a dignified Roman emperor to a city lord and centurion! How can this grievance be swallowed so easily? Could it be that the tiger is not powerful, do you really think of us as sick cats? If you want to laugh at your grudge so easily, you're just dreaming! ”

Looking at the back of the Venetian ambassador who was gradually moving away, the traverser emperor Bixia cursed viciously through gritted teeth, his face full of crazy hideous expressions, "...... O damn Venetian! Even if you drag the whole shijie to hell together, I want to make you look good! ”

At this moment, he seemed to see a group of black-clad Grim Reapers, holding scythes, quietly falling from the sky, ready to harvest millions of lives......

-- The "undead disaster" that made everyone fear and tremble, under the planning of the undisciplined traverser, finally quietly descended on this shijie! (To be continued.) )
