Chapter 235: Imperial Power and the Emperor
,
Drift calendar 8333. The Almohad Empire was plunged into unprecedented turmoil
For a long time, the serfs, such as Willis, had lived in the loving care of the noble landlords.
Like I am afraid that they will eat too much and their stomach and digestion will not be good, so they often give them some coarse grains to make them half full.
I am afraid that if they lack exercise, they will get cardiovascular and cerebrovascular sclerosis, as well as diseases such as hyperlipidemia and high blood sugar, so let them get up before dawn every day to exercise
I'm afraid they sleep too well. There will be a lack of hard work and simplicity, so they built a thatched hut that is well ventilated, breathable, and full of rustic atmosphere, more frugal than their own kennels, so as to promote their spirit of striving for progress.
And I am afraid that they usually have too few entertainment activities, and they are often massaged by the aristocratic landlords who love them like loving fathers, and often use leather whips to massage these naughty children, and the horses and horses kill the chickens
I was afraid that the water they used to wash the three gentlemen would be too hot and burn their skin, so they deliberately used the cold cold water in the dungeon" and so on. Such a warm life full of infinite warmth of a slave happy family
But Willis, a wicked bandit, a despicable murderer, and a damned corpse robber, doesn't know what to do at all.
Taking advantage of the Empire's newly promulgated sacrosanct "right of the first night", a law that had been so painstakingly conceived for their sake, and for their sake, to raise the level of their personal integrity encouraged the serfs, who had been living in happiness, to rebel with him.
And because of the carelessness of the lower-level officials of the empire, and the malicious connivance of a rare traitor who has infiltrated the empire, the best opportunity to exterminate it has been missed.
The southern part of the empire is in turmoil.
At the same time, the Emperor of the Empire was angry for his mistress's son, who was also his mistress. Save him from the Maple Leaf Danlin gang of irrational, unreasonable, and extremely brutal wicked people.
He was extremely wise and set a precedent for fighting on two fronts. Regardless of the tightness of the southern front. He dispatched a large army to stab Ye Danlin's tyrannosaurus
70,000 elite troops and nearly 100 imperial warships were talking and laughing, and they were wiped out. In the end, only the old Despi was alone and on the ship, and fled back in a hurry.
And the banye danlin who is determined to take revenge. Immediately formed a legion, staring at blood-red eyes. Expeditions across the sea.
In this case. Seeing that the empire was about to be in chaos beyond control, it almost reached the point of extinction and collapse. That's when it happened. The governors of the South, as well as the Vice-Commander-in-Chief of the Empire, General Haddou, bravely stepped forward and took up their due responsibilities to the Empire.
In the private words of General Hadou himself: "It's time to let that damn old rabbit know that it's awesome." Otherwise, he would have thought he was the private son of the gods."
Although he didn't say who the old rabbit was, everyone knew who he was referring to.
Ragre listened to General Vabadore's menacing questioning and smiled lightly.
He looked around at the crowd. Lang Sheng said: "I have come this time with infinite sincerity to decorate a peace agreement with you. ”
As the main battle faction, the Archmage of Lester is bent on making things bigger. Therefore, he sneered and said, "Peace, peace agreement, do you want to figure it out?" You are not even an envoy of the emperor, but an envoy of generals and governors, so what qualifications do you have to negotiate a peace agreement with us?"
Ragray smiled and ignored him. Look directly at Lorraine. It's as if he knows that he plays a pivotal role in the hearts of everyone. He continued: "Gentlemen, have you been having a headache with that legion south these days?"
Lester said, "What's this? We've already chased them away once. If we send a cavalry regiment back, we can easily drive them away again. ”
Ragray looked at him and said seriously, "Yes, you said it too. You can drive them away, but you can't annihilate them. Once we draw a large number of legions from the south. Can you still drive them away again?"
Lester stagnated. But the tiger's body was shocked, showing the heroic posture of the old rascal.
I saw him slap the table and say toughly: "So what? Do you think that with that, we won't be able to beat you?"
Unrelenting, Lagree stepped forward and asked, "What if you add General Hadow's command?"
Lester snorted coldly. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes, and he said in a cold voice: "When the time comes, we can try."
Ragley laughed, then took another half step back and said, "Either way, even if you can win." But there will be heavy losses when the time comes, won't it?"
Lester was speechless for a moment.
General Vabadore and Lorraine glanced at each other, and then said in a loud voice, "Just say it." What exactly do you want?"
Lagray turned his head, looked at the crowd, and said quickly, "It's easy. You can go and attack the capital of the empire, we will not be involved. But in the south, you must not enter. It is also impossible to secretly support the rebels in Willis. ”
When everyone heard his words, they were all shocked. There was silence in the hall for a moment, and even the sound of a needle dropping could be heard. The sound of the guards patrolling the street outside as they clicked through the streets came in, covering the hall
Everyone quietly digested the news they had just heard. I thought in my heart: They are really bold enough, and they really dare to betray their emperor
This is important no matter where you are in any country or any country
As an Imperial official. You can be corrupt and pervert the law, give and accept bribes, be corrupt and fall, and even passively sabotage, and you can mislead the country for personal gain.
Because these are all knots. The officialdom of the empire never put these verses into the category of officialdom morality, but since ancient times, it is absolutely forbidden to betray the country, betray the emperor, or even betray him outright.
Doing this job, under normal circumstances, he was either cut off by the emperor's head, or he played the management buyout of the emperor's majesty, and became Taizu, Taizong and the like.
Although Leo is young, he is the future successor of the empire, from birth. The ass sat on the side of the ruler, but he was also extremely disgusted by these things, and immediately became resentful of the same enemy.
He jumped up, pointed to the man's nose, and shouted, "Okay." No wonder I see you with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but you don't look like a good person, just thinking that you are here to cheat money. I didn't expect you to dare to betray the country"
"Nope. Ragre looked at him and gently corrected, "Your Highness Leo, it's the opposite. In doing so, we are preserving the country. It was only the emperor who betrayed. And so it goes. ”
Leo was stunned for a moment and said, "This,,This,,This is not the same?"
"When the emperor is right, we are loyal to the emperor." When the emperor makes mistakes, we owe allegiance to the emperor."
Leo has learned a lot of things these days under Catherine's tutelage.
Knowing that in a company, for people who don't have the ability, the boss who pays him. As soon as the boss gets out, he's going to follow suit.
And for a capable person, it is the company that pays him. The boss is gone, and they can still continue to receive their salary.
Therefore, when the general manager of the company does something wrong and damages the interests of the company, those shareholders and employees will of course kick that o away mercilessly.
He smacked his tongue twice, although it wasn't the taste. But he also knew that he had a point. Then he crawled to the side in discouragement.
As he walked back dejectedly, he complained in a low voice, "It seems that the emperor is also quite bad." Every now and then, someone runs out. I'm going to you. So the younger brother who didn't believe in his subordinates still can't do it."
Lorraine glanced at him, and said secretly in his heart: You admit that you usually do nonsense, no matter how much you toss, no one cares. In another era, people would have been kicked off a long time ago.
I think that when Clintonke was talking to San about ideological work. A little too much, almost thrown down. To this day, he is still a man with his tail between his legs. can't hold his head up in front of his wife.
Ragre smiled and looked at General Valador and said, "Are we going to make a deal?"
General Valador laughed and said, "Do you think I'm stupid?
Raghley was stunned for a moment, and said, "Then what do you want?"
Lorraine sighed beside her. Then he complained: "I said old man, although I really want to help you, but I have to say that this is your fault." Although we really want to believe you, but just saying that, and then taking out a few copies of the text, and making us believe, is very difficult for me to do. ”
Ragre said, "So."
Lorraine said with a reassuring expression, "Look, although we want to believe it too. But looking back, we move forward. The agreement torn up by your side and sent troops to attack. One wall at both ends. We're just going to be dumplings. ”
Ragre said thoughtfully, "You want to"
Lorraine smiled and said, "Actually, there is nothing else, that is, you can invite a few heavyweights to come and sit with us." It would be great if General Haddou could be invited. I have always admired this general. I would love to have the opportunity to get his personal guidance. ”
Ragre glanced at Lorraine. Then he laughed knowingly and said, "Oh." Hahaha, I see, I see. ”
It's just that he is secretly scolding in his heart. This damn hypocrite is really as General Hadu said, this damn fox is really not simple, and it is definitely not to be seen.
He snorted two haha, and then said, "I think General Hadu must be happy to communicate with you as well."
Catherine was immediately overjoyed and said, "So what are you waiting for?"
Ragray looked at the gray-eyed young girl and immediately remembered her information in his mind
Enemy of the Almohads, daughter of Grand Duke Julius of the Juman Empire, and Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shudder, and hurriedly interrupted her, saying, "But!, but he is now entangled in everything." has been busy with military affairs. But I think his son might have time to come and visit. ”
Catherine couldn't help but sigh in disappointment, and said, "Really, what." Make people happy in vain.
He said, and sat back down.
Ragre secretly wiped the cold sweat from his head, then turned to General Vabador and continued: "Not only the son of General Haddou, but also the children of the governors of the provinces, as well as closeness
General Vabadore heard such generous conditions, but he frowned and said cautiously: "Then what kind of guarantee do you want us to provide?"
Ragre smiled and said, "Your Excellency, don't worry. We didn't ask for anything else. All you need is the personal assurance of you, the general, and the Archmage of Rest. Because we fully believe in you and the Grand Magus. There is also the credibility of the maple leaf dandan. In addition to that, we believe in our own strength. The latter is just as important as your assurance. ”
After speaking, he bowed again. Quietly waiting for their reply.
General Vabador and Lester glanced at each other, then stretched out his hand, shook it at Ragre, and said, "Cheng"
、
A few days later. The crusaders get hostages. At the same time, it was also relieved of worries, and the Almohad army in the south withdrew three hundred miles without saying a word on the day the agreement was reached.
Under these circumstances, the General Headquarters of the Expeditionary Force immediately announced that the rest had been completed and began to advance
They loaded the assembled supplies onto the ships.
The battleships and transports also raised their sails, and the sailors rowed their huge oars.
The fleet turned from Haikou into the river in turn.
A large contingent of the Armed Leaf Danlin Raiders made their way up the river, and the battleships sailed along the middle line of the river, defending the transports on the inside.
The cavalry and infantry marched on the east bank of the river, always in line with the transports. Echoed. In order to be foolproof.
General Vabador set the headquarters of the crusading army on the main warship of the Ruman Empire, "Thunderfire of the Wrath of the Great God of Drosen". number.
Generals. The mages and priests all sat comfortably in their boats, looking out at the different customs of the Almohad Empire, while pointing at the large infantry marching on the riverbank.
The Shari River, the artery of the Almohad Empire, originated from the southernmost rainforest of the Almohad Empire, and its mighty river flows north through several of the most important cities of the Almohad Empire, including the capital of the Almohads, Abdewad, and finally empties into the Madidom Sea outside the city of Hafs.
The crusading army's large fleet was prepared for the Shari River, and in addition to the men and warships remaining in Hafs, the crusaders loaded supplies on their ships, and the cavalry and infantry legions marched along the river banks to the city of Abdwad.
The advantage of this is that the march is fast, the logistics and materials are replenished quickly, and the disadvantage is that the position of the crusading army is clear. The Almohads knew exactly where they were.
But now that the local governors had made their attitude known, they agreed that the old rabbit should be taught. The task of the crusaders is much easier.
Lorraine had calculated from all sources that the crusaders would have to engage the Almohads two or three more times, depending on the degree of march and route of the raiders.
However, with the crusading army's ability to rely on the Shari River ships to transport supplies, the powerful team of mages and priests of Ye Danlin, and the vengeance maniac of Lester who was holding back his strength to make the Almohad Emperor regret being born into this world, the crusading army had nothing to fear.
Except for the great battle with the demons thousands of years ago, until now, no one has ever gathered such a large team of mages and priests, and there has never been a mage with the title of forbidden spell mage on the front line of the battlefield.
Winter is the dry season of the Shali River, the flow of water is gentle, but relying on the Shali and abundant water, the river is still wide, and more than 100 ships of the crusading army easily gather together.
The surface of the river was clean, except for the team of the crusading army, not a single board could be seen, and Lorraine and the others had passed through several villages and towns along the river, all of which looked depressed and dilapidated. The humble hut, the old man Almohad, who was shabby in the cold wind, looked at the army in horror with cloudy eyes.
The young men here have run out, and they are not afraid of the crusading army. Rather, it is simply afraid of the army, whether it is Almohad's or the Machine's Danlin.
At first, some of the soldiers of the crusading army ran into the village with great interest to take a turn. After a few more villages. The crusading soldiers also lost interest, not only did they have nothing to grab, but they also wanted to give them a little when they looked at them.
After a few days of marching. Another city of Almohads appeared in front of the crusaders.
Lorraine pointed to the map in front of him and said: "Vibos is just a small city, the intelligence says that it only has a garrison of a few hundred people, and they are all old and weak soldiers, and its own location is not dangerous, and there are no passes around, the scout reported that Vibos looks normal, I will take someone to take a look, if it is not necessary, you can skip this location." ”
General Vabador nodded and said, "I don't have to worry if you go, you have to look carefully, although we have an agreement with those governors, but the agreement itself is used to tear up." I couldn't trust them from start to finish. ”
Luo Lina said, "I'll take a few mages with you, and stay on the ship all the time." The bones are all soft
Soon, Lorraine gathered two thousand cavalry and ran along the humble road to Vibos.
The banks of the river are covered with whole patches of withered yellow reeds, and large black birds are constantly flying and falling, and the whole area can be seen at a glance under the winter of Chai Lang.
Behind Lorraine was the shadow of the crusading army's black oppressive ship, and in front of him was the bleak shadow of Vibos City.
