Section 22 Hunting Villages
readx;
As the political capital of the Hansen League, Bergen is actually not big, it is only ranked third in the Duchy of Hanover, after the capital Luxembourg and the largest seaport and the second largest city in Zagreb, but because it is located in the south of the Duchy of Hanover, the majestic and steep Alfonsolo Mountains stretch for thousands of miles from south to north, but it presents a wonderful fault in the place where Bergen is, the broken and rugged Ne Pass has been renovated and maintained by the Hanoverians for decades, and finally became the busiest passage, and Bergen is just on the west side of the passage, and the city of Khakira in the Kingdom of Indjan on the east side is far away。 Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The Alfonsolo Mountains in summer are the most beautiful and charming seasons in the Western Continent, and the alpine ski resorts above the snow line are the best places for the nobles to have ski races and dog sled races, where the nobles often spend a lot of money, and casinos have also come into being, every time there is always a few happy and a few sad, but the nobles don't care too much about these, as long as they can relax their hearts and good friends for a few days, it is undoubtedly an extremely rare enjoyment for them.
Those who don't like snow sports can choose to hunt in the forests and shrublands below the snow line, from black bears and wild boars to argali, rock sheep, red deer, Sika deer, everything, people who are good at hunting have prepared hunting dogs and weapons here, every large-scale hunt always attracts many ladies who are not willing to be lonely, and the prize for the final winner of the hunt is often a bottle of champagne or a bottle of aged red wine, and if you are lucky, you can also get a fine ivory ornament or rhino horn as a special gift, of course, these special gifts are usually provided by the owner.
The hunt was clearly a success, and although there were many guests, the Marquis of Salz, as the host, was adept at it, and the attendants moved from one to the other, and the guests gathered in small circles according to their preferences, discussing the most popular and fashionable topics in the high society of the League.
"Count Jibri, I can't agree with what you say, although the Chidi people have signed a truce with the Rope people now, but once these barbarians have licked their wounds, they will definitely launch a more ferocious attack on our north in retaliation for our threat to them this time, it is not difficult to imagine, I think our north may encounter more trouble this year. A polite gentleman was politely pitching his judgment to the other party.
"Viscount Fermi, you are right, but have you considered it, this war with the Luope people, although the Chidi people have gained an advantage, but the advantage has not turned into a victory, that is to say, they have not achieved many satisfactory results, the Luope people also have a grudge against this war, they will not be willing to let the Chidi people press on their heads like this, especially now that they have the support of the Tanghe people and several other steppe barbarians behind them, I am afraid that they will recover soon, maybe this truce is just a cover, a cover to provide a respite for the next war。 The old man disagreed with the other party's opinion, "For the Chidi people, how to deal with the revenge of the Luope people is the most important, as for the invasion of our north, maybe, but in a short period of time, I am afraid they also need to rest." ”
"Well, the earl's words are very reasonable, I heard that this time the Luope people can avoid being completely defeated by the Chidi people, their former enemy Tanghe people have contributed a lot, especially the northwest king Li Wufeng of the Tanghe people is quite a general, and the Luope people immediately turned enemies into friends, so that the Chidi people were caught off guard and suffered a dumb loss. Someone next to him chimed in.
"The mysterious Oriental Continent is really fascinating, from silk and porcelain to tea and bamboo weaving, these things created by the Oriental people are always amazing, why don't we have them in the Western Continent?" a nobleman with a strong merchant atmosphere looked sad and couldn't help but sigh.
"Hehe, Viscount Curron, all things are born, not everything is evenly distributed, of course, there is no favoritism, there is something in the Eastern Continent, although we do not have it in the Western Continent, but some of us have it in the Western Continent, and they do not have it in the Eastern Continent, so there will be the emergence of the profession of a businessman, communicating with each other. The other nobleman immediately comforted the other party.
"Well, it's amazing to hear that the silk was spit out of the mouth of an insect and then spun by special means, and that the weaving technique of those bamboo weaving vessels has reached the point of ingenuity, and I can't imagine the extent to which the Orientals have been so ingenious, but I can only say that I am amazed. "Although Viscount Curran is a merchant, he is the leader of a business family, and every time the caravan brings him back a lot of income, it also makes him full of yearning for the Eastern Continent, but his identity is limited, so he can't follow the caravan to travel to the East, so he has to express his regrets in words.
"Viscount, you don't have to regret it, the Viscount Moncadi and the Baron of Ploveland over there have just returned from the Eastern Continent, you might as well go and talk, it's better than nothing. Someone around him immediately suggested.
Viscount Monca got his wish and became a guest of the Marquis of Salz's hunting house, and he finally experienced the taste of a star character, whether it was those marquis counts from various countries, or noblewomen and girls were full of curiosity and admiration for his legendary experience in the Eastern Continent. It is said to be a legendary experience, only Viscount Monkadi himself knows that it is just an ordinary trip, but he is lucky enough to meet Li Wufeng, which brings an opportunity for the Hansen Alliance to join forces with the Eastern Continent to deal with the old enemy Chidi.
But a visit to the Northwest was enough to show off to the nobles who stayed at home, and from the magical green sea swamps of Northern Luzon to the endless sugar cane and tobacco fields, to the coffee plantations all over the mountains, from the clouds of sheep in the Tengger steppes to the thriving textile industry in the Northwest, Viscount Moncardi showed his eloquence, which he had carefully arranged at home, and of course these were all facts, but with some exaggeration. The merchant aristocrats were more attracted to the business opportunities contained in Mr. Viscount's words, while the hereditary nobles were more yearning for the mysterious and beautiful natural scenery and culture and art, and the young girls and young women were attracted by the various costumes and handicrafts full of oriental national colors introduced by Mr. Viscount.
Of course, the purpose of the Marquis of Salz is not to ask Viscount Monkadi to introduce the mystery and legend of the East, but to show the countries of the Western Continent such a reality, the Hansen Alliance has found a powerful ally in the Eastern Continent, although this alliance is too far away from the Western Continent, but this is a breakthrough after all, and it seems that none of the countries in the Western Continent have ever thought of having contact with the forces of the Eastern Continent in this regard, but more of a ritual exchange and business contact。
The two of them were obviously not as quick as Viscount Moncadi, and in the face of the pursuit of noble ladies from all sides, Plovland seemed flattered and overwhelmed, but Miss Dreiser's good upbringing and natural adaptability helped them tide over the difficulties, and as everyone gradually became acquainted, many topics slowly expanded.
"Your Excellency, I heard that you were once a classmate of Master Li Wufeng, who was the king of the Northwest of the Tang River, and I heard that he was also proficient in Lania?" Plovland did not know how many times he had answered this question, it seemed that these people were not interested in the development of the situation in the Tang River and the Eastern Continent, and that Kafinitz had been fooling around at the University of Heidelberg for a while, but it had become the main concern of these people.
"Why did this Li Wufeng choose our school in the Western Continent as his place of study? Does he admire the civilization of our Western Continent? Or does he think that there is something more worth pursuing in our Western Continent?"
Fortunately, there are still many nobles with normal IQ who are concerned about the most core issues.
As the director of the Alliance's Foreign Affairs Office, the Marquis of Salz invited him to come to Hunting Village this time in the hope of having a clearer understanding of the strength of this ally far away in the Eastern Continent, especially after defeating the Luope, how much actual control he has over the Luope, the steppe barbarians who contain the Alliance's biggest enemy, the Chidi people, in his opinion, it is an extremely terrifying thing to be able to control these nomadic barbarians on the grassland.
Think about it, these guys who come and go without a trace, carrying a bag of water and a bag of dried meat can run on the endless grassland for days, and if he wants to subdue these guys, he really can't think of how to do it. But it seems that this ally in the east not only controls several small and medium-sized tribes in his immediate vicinity, but even the once glorious Luope seem to have slowly fallen into his hands. If this power can be used by the alliance and cooperate with each other, it will be enough to greatly eliminate the damage caused by the Chidi people to the northern countries of the alliance, at least it can limit the damage to a tolerable range.
"Viscount Monkadi, do you mean that in addition to the forces opposing the Tanghe people, the forces of the friendly Tanghe people now have the upper hand?" From the point of view of the moment, it is good that the allies can influence the Luope, but as the power of the Tanghe people expands further and the Luope people are controlled in their hands, will there be other situations?
