Located in the southern part of Central Europe, the city of Besuca feels more like spring than in the north

Since a few days ago, the primary color of the sky is no longer the gray of winter, the cheerful birdsong frequently appears on the windowsill, the cold wind is still howling but a little more chill from the spring breeze, the frozen river has a gurgling water, and a may be the last snow of this winter to fall on the city,

The wheels were crushing through the snow, and from time to time the branches could be heard breaking and crunching, and from the lonely birch forest in the distance, Sidney, the liaison officer of the Falcon Empire's Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the Congo Empire, put down the curtain of the carriage, and his eyes turned from a new focus on the letter in his hand, his eyes flickered, and he seemed a little hesitant,

This is an encrypted letter from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Empire that I just got, the letter said that this morning, Princess Tulit Colin of the Empire has arrived in the Putao area, which is three hundred and seventy miles away from Besuka City, nominally to go home to save relatives, but the liaison officer who is stationed in Gangfei has already smelled a breath of mountain rain coming from inside, "My lord, you said that Her Royal Highness the princess is coming to Putao at this time, does Your Majesty want to point a sword at Gangfei, or do you want to deter the people of Islam?"

Opposite him, a young adjutant with blond hair looked curious, and asked cautiously, "Half a month ago, we received a secret letter from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs saying that His Majesty ordered the entire Imperial Foreign Ministry to fully cooperate with Princess Turit, and asked any personnel in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to carry out the Princess's instructions without question, I thought this was a sign that Princess Turit had officially entered the Ministry of Foreign Affairs! Hehe, what do you know, you forgot that in Central European Barrow, which surname is the most famous?" Sidney glanced at the corner of his mouth "When it comes to the experience of foreign affairs of the country, this family has thousands of years of experience" "You mean the Burrows family known as the Shadow of Obarro?" Could it be ......" The young adjutant's body trembled slightly, it was a shadow that could not be avoided by any foreign affairs officer of the country. There is even a saying that the women of the Burrows family control the direction of the fate of the Central European Baro, "If it is a high-level foreign officer, you will know that the core of the Burrows family is the surname Thurit! That is, the surname of the princess!" Sidney picked up the water glass on the table and gently blew the hot air on it, "The layout of His Majesty is not something that people like you and me can easily understand, so don't say that kind of ignorant thing again!" "Yes, I'm too superficial!"

The young adjutant blushed a little, but it was good that he was in Master Sidney's carriage, if he had said such a thing outside. That's really a shame to go home, for the battlefield without gunpowder with the foreign officer, it represents the arrogance of youth and ignorance, once such a label is hit, the career of the foreign officer basically means the end.

In the midst of the white city, the carriage drove into a courtyard,

Creaked, the wheels stopped, and the adjutant pulled the door. Sidney stepped out of the carriage in a black cloak, and he looked up at the entire row of well-dressed soldiers outside, frowning slightly and asking the young lieutenant who took the cloak, "What's going on?" I don't remember when I left in the morning. There's a Gangfei soldier out there?"

"My lord, there is a General Gangfei named Merkaya waiting for you in the living room!" the servant at the door hurriedly ran over and whispered in his ear with an ugly face,

"Mekaya, is he the commander of the Ninth Legion?" Sidney heard the name. His face was stunned for a moment, and a new group of officers with rich combat experience had just been hired by the Ministry of Military Affairs, among which General Mekaya was the most dazzling.

Because he is not only a Gangfei general who experienced the Battle of Putao, but also a great hero of the Gangfei Empire who turned the tide and defended Gangfei Kyoto when tens of thousands of troops collapsed on the Putao side, the naval fleet was destroyed and killed, and the Falcon Army approached Gangfei Kyoto.

Such a person, no matter how he looks at it, should have a hostile attitude towards the Falcon Empire, and the sudden visit is really unexpected by Sidney, "Lead the way!" After hesitating, Sidney straightened his collar, and in the meeting room, he saw the famous general,

"May I ask if it's Sidney's liaison officer, I'm suddenly visiting and I'm disturbed!" A tall and strong bald man, wearing a crisp general's uniform, saw Sidney walking in from the door, stood up and saluted slightly.

"You're so polite, General Merkaya!" Sidney looked up and down with a smile on the corner of his mouth as a career foreign officer, and his eyes looked up and down keenly, and said secretly in his heart, obediently, this person is known as the "Wall of Kyoto" by the non-military circles The Gangfei famous general, is really a formidable general, the height almost makes people look up to be able to see the top of the head, the strong body has a fierce temperament that belongs to the military, like a wall blocking the front, I don't know why, the feeling of this Gangfei general standing there makes Sidney think of a sword that is about to be unsheathed,

"It could be some kind of resolute temperament"

Sidney smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, and at the same time turned over the information of this Gangfei general in his mind,

It is said that because of his close relationship with the former Gang non-important minister Rubin Sack and was implicated, after the Battle of Kyoto, instead of being promoted, he was transferred out of the core of the military and transferred to the southern region far away from Kyoto, and the 170 officers of the Ninth Army under his command were also transferred out of the Kyoto troops in various names, but they also unexpectedly avoided the impact of the fiasco in Kyoto, and the country was in danger.

It is said that he has fully taken over the defense of the Besuka area, so it is no wonder that he can take the guards with a grand appearance, this is not only a matter of decency, but such a defensive general, it would be funny if he was accidentally assassinated!"I don't know what the general is here ......"

Sidney gestured to Mekaya to sit down, slowly sat down opposite Mekaya, the adjutant quickly brought two glasses of wine and put them on the table for the two, after exchanging pleasantries for a while, Mekaya suddenly said, "Winter is about to leave, spring is coming, Your Excellency's appointment in Gangfei is about to expire!"

"Yes, my term expires in April, and it's the season when the grass grows and the eagle flies, so it must be very intimidating to go hunting with my friends a winter bear that has just woken up from hibernation!" Sidney replied with emotion on his face, not knowing what Mecaya meant

"It's enviable. Recently, however, I have heard that your country is increasing its forces in the Putao region! If war breaks out again, I am afraid that your return journey will be unpredictable!" Mekaya showed a look of regret on her face,

"How can my lord think this, the war between our country and your country has long been stopped, and the increase in troops is to deal with the Iraqi people! I believe the general should be very clear about this!" Sidney pretended to be stunned, his fingers tapped lightly on the table, and his face was surprised, "And in the face of the invasion of the Iranian Empire, our country forced the Iraqi people to withdraw their troops on the border line. It can be seen that you and I are on the same front! There is no doubt about this!"

"Hehe, so that's the case, I really have too much heart!"

A smile appeared on Mecaya's cold and rocky face, as Besuca's defensive general, this question was within the scope of his inquiry, and Sidney didn't see anything wrong,

Mecaya stood up and said goodbye. He stopped at the door, sighed and said, "Your Excellency also knows that the recent situation in our country is not very good, especially when His Majesty the Emperor is young. It is inevitable that they will be shaken by the rumors of some ministers, and the hostility of the ministers towards your country is also rising sharply because of this fiasco, and I hope your Excellency can understand!"

"yes, I feel it too. The atmosphere around me seems to be changing!There are fewer and fewer smiles, more awl-like glances," Sidney's face suddenly changed, and he nodded in agreement, "I have also begun to hear things on the way, and my country has sat idly by and watched your country's suffering. I also fell into the slanderous words of Shimoshi wanting to annex the south and so on."

"It's really some nonsense, if your country had agreed to our aid at that time, or there would not have been such a result! Abandoning the country's centuries-old foundations, just to protect the safe evacuation of those Kyoto ministers, but I saw the ministers fleeing to the south in a carriage full of treasures stretched for more than ten miles! It is truly magnificent!" Sidney glanced at Mecaya on the other side,

"That's human blood, the blood of 300,000 people in Kyoto who were slaughtered by the Iranians!"

Mekaya's eyes widened with rage, his fists clenched, and he gritted his teeth, "Your Excellency, the Imperial Council has just ordered all the troops in the northern region to withdraw to the south! These ministers have gone crazy, and in order to avoid the invasion of the Iranians, they have decided to divide Gangfei into two! The partial side continues to live in the previous luxurious and extravagant life?"

"What! all evacuate to the south! Isn't it all up in the north!" Sidney was also frightened by the news, and his expression became stern,

The Gangfei Empire gave up the northern territories, that is to say, the troops of the Istanbul Empire faced the Falcon Empire in the north, and the most prosperous southwest region of the empire could be said to bear the brunt, and for the Falcon Empire, which was still fighting in Gaul, there was a danger of war on two fronts at any time, and the news must be sent back to China immediately!

"That's all I can say! Please be prepared! If something changes...... Mekaya seemed to feel that he had missed his words, his voice paused, shook his head, and walked out of the courtyard and rode his horse, Sidney waited until the other party left, and then turned and walked back,

"My lord, what is he doing here?" asked the adjutant as he opened the door to the living room

"Is this the wind?" Sidney muttered to himself, a little stunned, watching Mekaya disappear in the direction, his eyes were bright, today is too abnormal, as the head of the Gangfei Army who guards Besuka, his tone is full of strong dissatisfaction with the ministers, not only revealing the decision of the Gangfei high-level, but also saying such explicit words to himself, the meaning is extraordinary,

Is it a gesture of goodwill, or is it some kind of subtle message?

Leaving the mansion of Sidney, the liaison officer of the Falcon Empire, Mekaya went to visit Marcos, the deputy minister of military affairs in Congo.

"You're finally here!"

As the most fierce military minister in the emperor's decision to abandon Kyoto, Marcos raised his head from the pile of documents and looked at the imperial general who walked into his office with deep eyes

"Your Excellency, do you know I'm coming?" Mekaya was slightly stunned

Marcos was not surprised by Mecaya's appearance, but said, "I know that you turned the tide in the Battle of Kyoto and did not get promoted, but instead of being transferred to the south, it was actually Rubin Sark's arrangement, because he knew that his future path would ruin his reputation" and "Stay with you." It's just going to implicate you," Marcos paused, and continued, "Rubin Sark is ready to die a bad death, as his student. Are you going to go down the same path?" "The country is in danger, and it has to be ......" Mekaya's expression was extremely stern, and he just spoke, "Alright!" Marcos waved his hand and interrupted him, "If you want to do something or say anything, don't tell me, as long as the emperor is fine, the Praetorian Guards won't hear anything, can't see it!" "Thank you, my lord!" Mekaya's face showed a happy face. "May the glory of the empire endure!" Mecaya took a deep breath, straightened up, gave a respectful military salute, and turned to leave Marcos' office

Marcos's adjutant cautiously walked in with a stack of papers, and saw Marcos standing at the window, looking out of the window with blazing eyes, like there was a loose war horse! "Don't you dissuade him?" "Some things always need to be done, two moves to Beijing, power turmoil, and some people's ambitions are also like vines...... "Marcos' eyes flashed. Said meaningfully, "My lord is talking about His Royal Highness Prince Dunade," the adjutant said the name with a trembling voice,

Since the defeat of the military, the prince's authority has grown, knowing that he will not be able to secure the support of the military. The prince threw an olive branch to the ministers, and suggested that the emperor should follow the advice of the ministers when he was young, and his popularity among the ministers could be said to have risen.

He is the uncle of the little emperor, and he is also a member of the royal family who almost ascended the emperor's throne in the first place, and there are already some rumors. Proposing that the emperor was too young to bear the burden of the country's turmoil, Jian yì appointed His Royal Highness Prince Dunade as the regent, and the regent of the state affairs of the empire until the emperor came of age "No matter who it is, this sign must be eradicated, the emperor's throne is very small, and only one person can sit down!" Marcos turned around from the window, his hand fell heavily on the table, and the corners of his mouth said coldly, "Or Robin Sark saw far away, and he had already buried a sword to remove obstacles for the emperor's future!"

"Convey these orders immediately!"

Mecaya returned to his guard residence and began to give orders to mobilize troops, and at night, at the base camp of the Guard Legion, twenty officers of the rank of squadron leader from the Ninth Regiment stood around a map of the layout of the city. The strength of the entire Besuka region, the strength of the Ninth Army stationed in Besuka is 17,000 men, of which the strength outside the city is 11,000, the strength inside the city is 6,000, and the garrison in the city is the emperor's 13,000 Praetorian Guards, which are divided into four armies, south, south, and west, which are stationed around the emperor's mansion, and secondly, to the outside, which is temporarily given to the ministers' mansions, with only sporadic guards.

Mekaya assigned tasks to the officers under his command, sent the drawings to the officers below, and said "The first team will go to the Chancellor's Residence, the second team will go to the Minister of the Interior, and the third team will go to ......" After handing out the last picture in his hand, he raised his head and looked at the already red eyes of the officers under his command, and said, "Is everyone clear? The person on the picture is your target" "My lord, what should I do with that person?" An officer hesitated for a moment, and asked cautiously, "I will go and lead the team to solve it myself!" Mekaya took a deep breath, the fire shone on his face, looking a little hideous, "The prince's royal bear army is a trouble, although their number is only fifteen hundred, but they are all battle-hardened elites! Moreover, the prince's mansion is very close to the emperor's majesty, once it is found that the situation is wrong, the target will choose to flee to the emperor's side immediately!"

Mecaya's voice stopped, and his face swept over the officers with a solemn face, and said, "Remember, no matter what, we can't attack the Emperor, because we are not a rebellion!" "Yes!" The officers replied in a neat and loud voice,

The door of the conference room opened, and six thousand torches were neatly arranged outside, the flames were blazing, and the eyes of the soldiers below were bloodshot, "Let's act!

Mecaya condensed her voice and said, after learning that the Falcon Empire would not intervene and the Praetorian Guard would not send troops, the 1.12 military admonition of the Gangfei Empire that shocked Central Europe Barro broke out that night, and the soldiers stepped on the thick snow to assassinate the "bad guys around the emperor",

That night, the snow was heavy and the first squadron of the Chancellor of the Exchequer was killed, which at 4:30 a.m. headed east from the base camp of the Guards Corps and arrived at the Interior Minister's residence at 5 a.m.

The soldiers neatly drew their melee swords. Knocking open the door, the 54-year-old chancellor of the exchequer, who had just attended a dinner with his wife the night before, was still asleep when soldiers stormed the mansion. The soldiers broke down the door and slashed at the Chancellor and his wife on the bed, slashing a total of forty-nine swords, and when the soldiers succeeded, they shouted three times, "The glory of the empire endures," and then roared away.

The residence of the Imperial Minister of the Interior is an old-fashioned courtyard, and when the wooden door is slammed open, the soldiers rush in with their long swords, and the military Minister of the Interior, a 62-year-old wizened old man, picks up his sword and bravely fights back, but is slashed to the ground by the sword.

The body was shredded, and the head rolled down the stairs.

The soldiers, enraged by the dead Minister of the Interior, drew his saber and hung his head on the door before leading their troops to rendezvous. (To be continued......)
