Chapter 163: Sealing
When Joseph said this, he couldn't help but snort coldly in his heart: If he was the emperor of the empire, and a feudal official with 100,000 horses in his hands was placed in the western frontier of the empire, I am afraid that he would not even be able to sleep well, right?
Moreover, the transfer of the governor of Moxi Province is such a major event, even if the power of the military department is great, without the secret support of the emperor, it may not be able to suppress the resistance in the middle. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
But when Joseph thought of this, he was a little puzzled: the situation in Moxi has reached this level, even if the emperor and those bigwigs in the military department have the heart to take over Heru's power, they shouldn't attack him at this time?!
If a mutiny is provoked, I am afraid that Moxi will really fall into the hands of the enemy. Even if you take 10,000 steps back, I am afraid that from now on, the people will be scattered and bandits, which is tantamount to messing up the western frontier, which is tantamount to destroying the city wall!
José told Su Ya about the doubts in her heart, but Su Ya shook her head, and her eyes showed a little deep sadness:
"You don't understand, Joseph, the struggle for power within the empire is not as simple as you and I imagined. In the past ten years, there has been the seizure and suppression of power by the temple inside the empire, Macedonia outside, and a fierce rival like Isby, and it is not an exaggeration to say that there are constant internal and external troubles.
When I was a child, my grandfather deliberately warned me that His Majesty Mondevideo IV came to the throne at a young age and was extremely tough-hearted. I already have a lot of grudge against the Ellios family, and in the past hundred years of the empire, the imperial power and the divine power have been constantly fighting, and the imperial power is gradually at a disadvantage, so it is natural for His Majesty to be eager to take power in the local area.
Although Moxi is important, in the final analysis, it is only a province in Western Xinjiang. Even if the turmoil caused by the seizure of power, although the impact on the empire is great, it will not break the bones. After all, in addition to Moxi in the northwest, the province of Turan is closer to the empire, and even if Moxi is lost, the western frontier will not be too tricky.
Even if he takes 10,000 steps back, Moxi is in turmoil, and His Majesty will naturally take advantage of the situation to take back Moxi's power, but I don't think he wants to see such a situation.
On the side of the Northwest Army, there are roughly two different factions. One is Heru's descendants, many of them are in turmoil because of Heru's transfer, these people are the main force of the Northwest Army, and they are also the reason why the empire does not dare to attack Heru easily. The other faction is the traditional generals who are loyal to the empire, and most of these guys are generals who were transferred from all over the empire to Moxi and divided power with Heru.
This can also see the determination of His Majesty the Emperor to rectify the northwest: take advantage of the war to attack Moxi, attack Heru, although it will suffer some hardships, but it can get greater gains, if I guess correctly, I am afraid that Your Majesty also knows this, so he will bet on this!"
Hearing Su Ya say these words so lightly, Jose couldn't help but feel a little chill in his heart, it seemed that he still underestimated the power struggle within the empire.
He had already heard it, and the emperor seemed to have anticipated the consequences of doing so, but in order to grasp power, he could only cut flesh and mend sores, and he did not hesitate to bet on millions of soldiers and civilians in Moxi!
"It's a big gamble......"
Jose only felt a little bitter in his mouth, and couldn't help but shake his head and said: "It seems that I am still too naïve, compared to the guys you said, I feel that I really think too simple......"
After Su Ya said all this, she seemed to feel a little more relaxed in her heart. It seems that only by facing the man in front of her can she express her scruples and pressures unabashedly, and only by facing him can she reveal her true self.
It was not the commander of the Northwest Army who had to remain calm and majestic, nor the young duke who shouldered the burden of the family, but he could confide his heart to Jose like a close friend.
Maybe it was because she was under too much pressure, or maybe she remembered what she had experienced with Jose, Su Ya was silent for a moment at the moment, but said in a faint tone:
"In fact, many times people are involuntarily, from the moment they are born, they are destined to carry a responsibility and a mission forward.
Although it is selfish to think like this, I really think that the time spent with you in the desert is really easy, at least I don't have to worry about so much thought and calculation, if I can live a peaceful life all the time, it will not be a kind of happiness......"
José obviously felt the heaviness on this young girl's body as well, and couldn't help but feel a move in his heart, and blurted out:
"Then don't pay attention to these, do what you want to do, life is only a few decades, if you are not happy, wouldn't it be too wronged yourself?"
Joseph paused, sighed a little helplessly, touched his nose and said: "I am a little naïve when I say this, you are right, there are many things that are involuntary in life."
Maybe I used to think like that, just go to school, graduate, then work, marry a wife and have children, and live a life of inaction. I even wondered a lot of times how I would have lived if I hadn't been on that expedition.
Although now, it seems that everything is meaningless. I lost my family, my friendship, and all the traces of my previous life, and I was forced into this world. I regretted it, but I didn't give up ......"
There was a hint of brightness in Jose's eyes, and he looked at Su Ya in a very calm tone, and couldn't help but smile slightly:
"Now I feel free, even though I don't fit in with the world, but I'm not afraid! I can live without having to live according to anyone's ideas, which is a freedom that I never thought of before.
Well, if you want to one day, I can accompany you to find the kind of life you want. I don't know exactly what it is, but I can promise you. ”
Su Ya looked at Qiao Se with some surprise, looking at the tall and thin silent man in front of her, but her heart fluttered: he still seemed to remember the thin boy, the man who stood in front of him to protect him. At this moment, Su Ya actually felt a strange feeling in her heart, only that the young man in front of her seemed to be a little different from a year ago, but she couldn't see any difference in him.
Su Ya also felt something unusual, and raised her head slightly, but she happened to meet Qiao Se's eyes. The girl couldn't help but stare into Jose's eyes, only to feel that her heart was beating hard, but she couldn't say a word.
Jose obviously also felt that his words were a little ambiguous, thinking of this era similar to the Middle Ages, I am afraid that Su Ya is far more conservative than those sisters in reality. Thinking like this, he couldn't help but want to explain, but found that Su Ya actually lowered her head and didn't say a word, and her face couldn't help but be stunned, and she didn't know what to say for a while.
Jose was silent for a moment, and finally forcibly suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, couldn't help coughing, and deliberately changed his words and said:
"In that case, I'm afraid that there are a lot of attitudes on the Northwest Army side that are waiting and watching the empire, right? You are in command of the Northwest Army, and I am afraid that there is also a lot of pressure, and the balance of forces on all sides is really a little difficult. ”
When Su Ya heard this, she also smiled bitterly, and then said with some solemnity:
"It doesn't matter, the most important thing at the moment is how to get the Macedonians to retreat. After all, if these guys stay in Moxi for one more day, the situation will be chaotic for one more day, which is not a good thing after all. ”
Jose's expression suddenly became a little strange, and he couldn't help but glance at Su Ya before shaking his head and saying:
"I might have a way to solve this matter. After I killed that Macedonian wizard, Gould and Alok just left that guy's body, maybe this time we can also confirm whether the guy I killed is not a Macedonian prince!"
"What do you mean......" Su Ya was stunned for a moment, but found that the corners of Jose's mouth were raised, nodded and said, "Yes, we can send that Falusi's body directly to the garrison mansion in Sadran and give it to Barcellus himself!" (To be continued.) )
