"The Lantis Chamber of Commerce will buy a large amount of iron ore from the Byzantine Empire through various channels every year!But according to the amount of equipment of their standing army, they don't need so much iron ore to make iron tools at all! But "Interestingly, they sell a certain number of weapons every year, including high-quality Lantis bows and arrows, high-quality Lantis shields and swords" Of course, because we still maintain a leading position in armor forging technology, the armor produced by the Landis people is not sold very well on the mainland.

To put it simply, they buy iron ore and even pig iron from the mainland at low prices, bring them back, make them into weapons, and sell them to us at an expensive price. ”

Finally, there was a sharp light in the girl's eyes, and she said slowly: "The teacher once said that the Landis people are vampires! They will suck enough blood from us and the Odin people every year, and this blood will feed the country of Landis more and more powerful.

At the same time, in every war between us and the Odin, the biggest winner is always the Landisians!

Such a country," the teacher once said before his death. If we fail to make fundamental or drastic changes, then in the coming decades, Landis's national power will surpass ours in all respects! At that time, "a neighbor who has been fattened and strengthened by us, a neighbor with hundreds of thousands of potential troops and a powerful navy that can directly attack any landing site, will they still sit and sit overseas and keep a wait-and-see attitude?"

When Via heard this, she was finally a little moved, and she looked at the girl on the soft couch: "These are all known to the teacher for a long time?

"Because I was the one he chose, and the one the teacher thought could best understand his mind. The girl said lightly.

Via clenched his fists: "Since you already knew this, why did you drag the Landis people in this war? You've met the people of the Gallensian Chamber of Commerce!" "It's the teacher's choice" It is precisely because we know the true ambitions of the Lanlows that they will definitely intervene in this war! The teacher said: This is the best opportunity that the Landis people can see in the next twenty years, so they will not refuse! The arrival of the son of the storm, Gislent, proves that the teacher's prediction is not wrong. ”

Via frowned: "So what are you worried about?"

The girl smiled bitterly: "My concern is very simple, the teacher said that even if he is a god, there is no guarantee that every decision he makes is correct, and there is no guarantee that he can predict everything." For example, "His Majesty Cantos died of illness a little earlier than the time point expected by the teacher before his death. This is an unexpected factor, but this factor" has brought variables to the whole gamble. ”

Via thought for a moment before saying, "You mean", His Majesty Emperor Garcia, he,"

"Kantos the Great was not a great monarch. The girl's tone was a little mocking: "Although he has some advantages, he also has many potential shortcomings, but these shortcomings are well covered up by the teacher, or rather, they are hidden in the teacher's light." These shortcomings include: slow self-use, too heavy suspicion, and indecision at critical moments" In fact, these shortcomings, I don't need to say too many things to prove, just one fact is enough to prove his incompetence. ”

The girl shook her head and sighed: "He has a teacher and a wise man to assist, and it has taken twenty years to bring improvement to this country." It is enough to prove his incompetence! The teacher once said that it seemed that the Emperor Kantos was obedient to him, but in fact, the emperor did not trust anyone at all. A hundred things. Emperor Kantos would listen to his teacher's advice on ninety-nine unimportant things, but the problem was the most important thing, and the old emperor often insisted on going his own way and did not listen to anyone's opinion at all. The teacher spent twenty years, and most of his life was wasted on mending holes for the old emperor's various wrong decisions.

His Majesty Garcia is a little smarter than the old emperor, at least he knows how to keep his head down, but there is an important flaw in his character, and this. Let the teacher give up on his expectations a long time ago. This flaw is: extreme!"

Extreme!

It's hard to imagine from the mouth of this girl. The evaluation of Emperor Garcia is actually extreme.

You must know that the world's opinion is that the current young emperor of the empire, since he was still the crown prince, has been regarded as a steady guy, strictly abiding by various etiquette, and even a little dull.

Such a person, but he is considered by Cavishel to be extreme!

"He hides it very well, but because he hides it deeply, once he succeeds to the throne, he doesn't need to hide it, so the emotions that have accumulated for too long before will be extraordinarily strong when they explode. Our young majesty is too anxious. ”

The girl's expression was helpless: "The current situation is. Byzantium needs Landis, and needs the strong support of an ally! The Landis are waiting for this opportunity! When we are most helpless. Wait for us to take the initiative to put down our posture to them and ask for the greatest help. The situation was supposed to be: we were in a hurry, but so were the Landisians! They were anxious and waiting for us to open up to them! It was supposed to be a time for both sides to compete in patience and wisdom.

And in fact, if the old emperor is still alive. The kind of hesitant nature of Emperor Kantos at a critical time will do us a great favor! At least the old emperor would not be so anxious to ask to meet with Gislent immediately!

But, "Our young Majesty, as far as I know, has made at least three attempts to formally return to the Lantiles! But this time, His Majesty Garcia's patience has finally run out, and he has already made the final decision to return to Gislent in the palace tonight.

The Landis waited for the moment they had been waiting for.

At such times, Emperor Garcia's anxious actions are undoubtedly tantamount to the Lantis: Come, blackmail me, and open your mouth!

And I'm sure the people of Lantis will be happy to do it. ”

In the afternoon, the old butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion saw the worried expression of the old Prime Minister Salon Bonelli when he returned home. The old housekeeper was very uneasy, and what made him even more uneasy was that soon after the old prime minister returned home, he asked the private doctor at home to be called in, and the old prime minister had a stomach ache again.

After taking the medicine, the Prime Minister did not take a nap after taking the medicine as he had done every time he was sick, but locked himself in his study, and at the same time sent his entourage to the Imperial Treasury Office. A box of Yi Xun books will be sunned and concave and said that the body clams are different

After Ming's various files were moved, he hid in the study and looked through them. Moon

Except for the old butler, who was trusted by the Prime Minister, who could enter the study and bring tea to the Prime Minister, everyone else was strictly ordered not to disturb the Prime Minister's work.

And when the old butler went in and out of the study several times, he saw the prime minister sitting on the cold floor very unfiguratively, surrounded by a mess of files.

The Prime Minister's face was ugly and indescribably gloomy. There is even a deep sense of loss and hesitation, as well as a hint of anxiety!

The old butler remembered that the last time the Prime Minister's emotions had become so out of control was the night before the death of His Majesty the Old Emperor Kantos.

One afternoon, the Prime Minister sat in the pile of files, holding his head and muttering to himself.

The last time the old butler went into the study. While delivering the medicine to the Prime Minister, Salumbonelli suddenly jumped up, glared at his butler with a somewhat crazy look, and then grabbed the butler's arm, even if the medicine was spilled on the ground.

"Let me ask you a question!"

Only, yes, my lord!" the butler's tone was a little flustered.

Salumbonelli took a deep breath and stared at the butler with a strange look: "I ask you" If there is such a group of people, who have been fighting against those dangerous, unknown, and countless storms, winds, and huge waves at sea all year round, facing the vast and unknown ocean, but can turn a piece of unknown area into a familiar route with a resolute heart, "They are not afraid of death, they are not afraid of adventure", such people will be "no ambition." Could it be "no danger, no aggressiveness." people?"

The butler was stunned by this inexplicable question, and he was stunned for a moment before swallowing and spitting: "Well, probably, probably," no. ”

"Of course not!" Salembonelli shook his head firmly, and he waved his arm fiercely: "The most adventurous army is the navy! But it's a naval nation! Why can't you see their danger?!"

The Prime Minister's tone suddenly became extremely excited: "Why can't we calm down any longer! Why can't we be more steady!!As long as we keep our confidence! Or make a confident appearance! As long as we show that we can control the situation and win this war on our own, we are the ones who are anxious! They are more anxious than us and want to intervene in this war! They are more anxious than us to get this opportunity! Why can't we be patient a little longer?! This is simply a bad time! There is nothing worse than this!" After saying this, the old prime minister suddenly seemed to be like a deflated ball, and the spirit of his whole body seemed to suddenly stop, his eyes dimmed, and he looked at the housekeeper who was being dragged by his arm, a little frightened, and waved his hand weakly: "Okay" I just can't figure out some things, you don't have to be afraid. Well, I'm not going to eat dinner at home, I'm going to have someone come and freshen up and change my clothes, and I'm going to the palace when I'm dinner. ”

The old butler was stunned: "But, sir." Your body, you were sick just now"

"I have to go. The old prime minister suddenly smiled. The smile was bitter: "This will be a huge blackmail! Such an interesting thing is rare to see in a hundred years." How could I miss it!hahahahahahaha!!"

"Since you know everything, you know everything, you understand everything, so why don't you want to stop it?"

Via looked coldly at the girl in front of her, the youngest student next to Teacher Cavishir. This shadow has been silently following Mr. Cavihill like a little tail before.

Via's tone was a little sarcastic: "Why don't you do something?"

"Because I can't help it. The girl put down the scroll in her hand: "Emperor Kantos died too soon and too early. This ruined the teacher's overall plan. His Majesty Garcia returned to Gislent, and that guy from Gislente was bound to make extremely harsh conditions. Emperor Garcia, who was anxious for strong assistance, was likely to accept such blackmail. What else do you think we can do to stop this?"

Via looked down and thought for a moment, and when she raised her head, her purple eyes shone fiercely.

"I'm good at killing people!"

The girl's expression darkened, her expression suddenly became complicated, and she took three deep breaths in a row. The girl let her body relax again.

"I can't make that decision. The girl frowned, her tone was a little helpless, and even a little self-reproachful: "I'm not a teacher." If the teacher had been here, maybe he would have had the courage to make such a decision, and he might not even hesitate to order you to assassinate Gislent! ”

"Why?"

In the face of Via's questioning, the girl suddenly smiled bitterly: "Because I don't dare! Because I'm not a teacher! Because once I really do this, how to remedy it afterwards, I can't solve it." ”

Gislent stood in front of the mirror.

His beard had just been trimmed to one side, making his face look angular and full of masculine beauty.

He was dressed in a sleek new Admiral Lantislav's military uniform, with a double row of gold buttons, shiny epaulettes, and the insignia of a senior naval officer on his chest, and an ornate ribbon.

His leather boots were shiny, and the scabbard of the command knife hanging from his waist was brand new!

Gislent grimaced in the mirror. Then he smiled slightly: "I'm really looking forward to this meeting." How much concession do you think this rabbit emperor will accept?"

In the room, behind Gislent. A handsome-looking young man sat on a chair. He looked at Gislent with a smile.

This is the same young man who has been hiding in the Gallens Chamber of Commerce.

"Although His Majesty Garcia was my companion not long ago, I can't really guess what he would do now. The handsome young man smiled: "Go ahead." Gislent! Go and win for the kingdom! The way to open up territory is not just to rely on war!"

"I know" Hmph, the way to open up territory is not just to rely on His Highness War, I remember this sentence as if it were when I listened to the lecture of that guy from Cavihill at the Military Academy. Did he say it himself?"

Gislent turned. Glancing at the young man, the two of them smiled confidently at the same time.
