The merchants were stabbed to death by the soldiers with spears, the wails were like a groan from hell, looking at the complete reversal of the situation, Elemade, who was wearing a black dress and looking arrogant, was completely stunned by the scene in front of her, and after a while, the miserable noise disappeared, and the corpses of more than a hundred merchants were lying all over the riverbank,

Hukochili's gaze began to look at Ingrimad, whose face was as pale as a piece of paper

"Lord Hukochili, what do you want to do, I am the chief female officer of Princess Harondian!" Feeling Hukoqili's gaze like a dead man, Yinglimad's face instantly lost blood, and her mouth let out a sharp cry of extreme fear, women from the palace may be used to seeing intrigues, but they have never seen such a naked massacre,

"There are no female officials here, and there is no one who has anything to do with Princess Haraudian!As for you, I don't think it's any different from the others!" Hukochili looked calm, as if telling a fact, and gestured to the guards behind him, "Deal with it!"

"Yes, sir!"

The two black-armored guards responded, carrying the imperial war knives dripping with blood, and accelerated towards the two, the two guards had already put down half of the metal armor on their faces, leaving only a pair of eyes as sharp as a leopard, and the blood of the merchant on the blade dripped out an obvious red thin line as the two walked around, and the sharp cold and bright eyes,

"No, you can't do that!, I'm Princess Harondian's ......"

Inlimard retreated in a panic, the dangerous aura of her tall and seductive chest gasping for breath, a sight that would have previously taken most men's breath away, but this moment did not make the slightest sense, one of the guards from Rui Erdian hesitated, and the other raised his knife

Her voice stopped abruptly after half a second, and a guard sword slashed through her swan-white neck with a graceful and fierce arc, a knife that was perfect in force and angle. It was like a ninety-degree cross-cut, and it was not until Elemad felt that she could no longer make a sound, could not breathe air, and the eyes bulging out of her eye sockets were sure that the person who shot out half a meter of blood from the half of the neck cut was actually herself, and her headless body fell to the ground, and her head rolled to the feet of Sidneyso, the head of the business alliance, with a look of fear and surprise

"Why, why is this happening! People just want to ......"

Sidneyso knelt on the ground with weak feet, his body trembling slightly, after all, he was from the traditional knight family of Ryrdian. In the face of the bloody and impending death, he seemed much calmer, and he struggled to hold on, his eyes looking directly at Varisien, as if he wanted an answer

"Empire, what decides is force, your ambition touches something that shouldn't be touched, that's all!"

Hukochili rode on his horse and interrupted him in a cold tone. He raised his hand to the guard, and the guard raised his sword, and red blood spurted out of Sidneyso's headless body, spreading out in mid-air like a waterfall of blood in the midday sun. Sidneyso's clenched fist corpse clenched for a few seconds before falling straight down

"I'll take the heads of these two people, and I'll leave the rest to you to dispose of, clean it up, and burn it!" Hukochili ordered the guards to cut off the heads of all the corpses before he took his farewell to Varisian,

Valisian stiffened. Mustering up his courage, he hurriedly said, "My lord, for the sake of your subordinates, why don't you give me a little bottom, what do you want, so many businessmen, each of them has a good background, and there is even the head of the business alliance in the Putao region and a henchman of the princess of the empire, now they are all killed in one go, you can get out safely, but your subordinates will be in big trouble, they don't dare to do anything to adults, but there is no pressure on the heads of such regions as their subordinates."

Hukochili glanced at him with a strange face, and suddenly sighed, "Varisian, you are known as the first lucky general of the empire, and you really have enviable good luck, it is your majesty who killed these people, and it is not you, as long as the other party is not mad enough to dare to assassinate an imperial general, you are in a safe situation, "Because no matter what the identity of the other party is, the last opponent will be His Majesty, what you have to do is to let this matter develop according to the situation it should be."

"What should it be?"

Varisian's face was slightly stunned, and he asked what should be the situation? Lying on this river beach were the core members of all the forces in the Putao region, and there was also the person in charge of this business tycoon from the empire, and he had completely offended the entire Putao this time

"Don't you see it yet? This is what Your Majesty wants! Executing so many merchants at one time just wants to take a look, who dares to jump out of this kind of thing!" Hu Keqili smiled at the corner of his mouth, and coiled the horsewhip in his hand together, "If this matter is brought forward by His Majesty, or if I come forward, the situation is not so ideal, so I say that you are the name of the imperial blessing is the essence of glory, you don't have to do anything, you don't have to care about anything, let it develop freely, you just need to hide and not say a word." ”

"You just say that I'm small, so I can handle it, and I want my subordinates not to say a word!

Varisian seemed to understand a little, and couldn't help but laugh and say, "I am only a regional head, but not a military minister who commands the military power of the empire like an adult, and there are too many ways for the other party to force him to come forward, just like Sidneysso said, as long as the commercial trade in the Putao region is stopped, he must run out to deal with the situation." "I don't know if I should call you smart or stupid"

Hu Keqili's voice paused, the horsewhip in his hand was violently straightened, and the corners of his mouth pursed disdainfully and said, "Don't forget, the caravan relies on the vines under the giant tree of the military, especially in areas where smuggling is rampant like Putao, and the consequences of offending the military are not willing to face most smugglers" "Unless this group of fools can't see the situation clearly and don't want to mix here, if they dare to strike the market, let the army confiscate all the goods in the name of smuggling!"

The corners of Hu Keqili's mouth showed a chilling coldness: "Those big businessmen from the empire may have some connections and strength, but behind you is the unified will of the imperial military, and it is the majesty who makes a decision! What else do you have to worry about, this is a war, a war between our military and the merchants! The more lively the other party is, the more they are looking for their own death! And you, as a representative of the military, only need to be silent." It is possible to make the leap from the head of the district to the governor of the region, and what is there to be dissatisfied! What a good fortune that is not enviable even to be envied!" Hukochili rolled his eyes at the stupid Valisian with a resentful face, and left with the guards

Varisian stood in place, and suddenly shuddered when he heard this, yes, if His Majesty wants to support the military in the end, the best way is to promote himself from the head of the region to the governor of the region, which is definitely in line with the evil taste of the perverse Majesty, what is more like a slap in the face to the extreme. A slap in the face that made every corner of the entire empire hear it with great clarity.

In the absence of a deliberate blockade by the military, the news of the murderous massacre of one hundred and seventy merchants by the head of the Imperial Putau region, Varisian, spread throughout Besuka in the afternoon, and the corpses on the river beach have been cleaned up, but the stones on the tidal flat are almost completely stained with red bloodstains, and the red color that can still be clearly seen under the repeated washing of the river, and the collective disappearance of the middle and high-level merchants in the entire Besuka area, as well as the latest imperial land division decree posted on the central square of the region, have made the whole heinous and naked massacre completely visible to everyone's eyes,

The owners are missing. The land is in the hands of Varisien, and this is the most direct evidence, and there is no need to confirm anything anymore, like a rod poking a huge hornet's nest. The swift horses sent by the servants of the various forces from Besuka kept in touch throughout the afternoon,

In the evening of the third day, a fast horse galloped into the large carved iron gate of the Lisbonto Business Union branch in the regional center of Putaus, and the rider on it jumped from the horse with great eagerness. hurriedly sent the report in his hand to the Wen Jiàn Department of the branch,

Receiving the report from the graceful female secretary of the Ministry of Literature was the Deputy Minister of the Business Alliance Division, Wakali

He had a handsome face, and under his golden hair were a pair of piercing eyes. The young man from the Waka family, a wealthy family in Ruierdian, has an enviable aura, is young, has status, and has status, and is one of the focuses of attention of many celebrities at business banquets, and is naturally the ideal object for many female secretaries of business alliance branches

After teasing a few words with the female secretary, Wakali was about to open the report in front of him, his eyes swept over, frowned slightly, and then put it down, the seal of the text is the Boala vine coat of arms for the business alliance, and it is a confidential text that can only be opened and read by the branch minister.

Sidneyso was out, and Vacali was a little hesitant whether to open it,

With the promulgation of the Empire's Inland Sea Decree and the Empire's complete victory in the Congo-Africa War, in just two months, less than a thousand merchants originally belonged to the name of the Commercial Alliance, which swelled to 50,000, and the sailors brought by these merchants reached a terrifying 400,000

Few people know that half a year ago, Vakali who arrived in the Putao area had a fierce conflict with Sidneyso, and Vakali, who was transferred from the prosperous headquarters of the empire, was very dissatisfied with the situation in the Putau area, and once violently attacked the branch set up by the business alliance in the Putao area, which was a smuggling area, which was simply a penal of exile used to punish the wrongdoers.

"There is no foundation at all, far from the empire itself, and the trade routes to the interior are in a semi-hostile state" "Commodities are completely smuggled into the country, and it is the smugglers who decide and dominate the commercial trade here, and the inaction of the military makes the commercial alliance a decoration" "The most shameful thing is that the business alliance is known for accepting orthodox merchants, and it is also engaged in smuggling business in private, and the name of this cancer is Sidneyso!" In his report to Headquarters, Wakali wrote, naturally referring to Sidneyso, who was in the same league as smugglers in Putaus,

But his report was ruthlessly rejected by the headquarters, Sidneyso was not transferred, and still made a lot of smuggling money, but the rift between the two has been revealed, and the headquarters did not give an explanation, Wakali knew from some clues that the establishment of a branch of the business alliance in the Putao area was not the decision of the deacon meeting of the business alliance, but the result of a woman's arbitrariness, hearing this woman's name, Wakali was suddenly scared into a cold sweat, although he had only worked in the department for a year. But for the name Socutus Deran,

The famous Dark Rose, rumored to be like a blooming flower with a stinger, the thirteen deacons who combine beauty and death, a woman who can fight the entire deacon's council on her own, and the cancellation of a branch requires the consent of one-third of the deacons, but among the twelve deacons, none of the deacons are willing to offend this woman for a remote and inconspicuous deputy minister! With the promulgation of the empire's strategy of opening the inland sea, everything has changed, and local merchants gather in Putao. The inconspicuous Putao headquarters has shown the prospect of becoming the headquarters of the commercial center, and the news from the headquarters has come that the business alliance headquarters seems to have a tendency to migrate to the general setting.

This proposal is said to have been officially submitted to the Council of Deacons, and if it is passed, it will definitely be a big event that will shake the direction of the entire empire's business community.

From this, we can see how correct the strategic foresight of the establishment of the Putao branch was in the first place, and it also confirms from the side how close the connection between the 13th Deacon and the top brass of the imperial military is. Wakali felt lucky to be alive after presenting such a fiercely criticized report,

"At this time, it is not wise to despise a minister of the rank of deacon with a promising future. Not to mention that little man Sidneyso!"

Whakali pursed his lips and placed Wen Jiàn on Sidneyso's desk, he had heard that Sidneyso seemed to have plans to change to a deputy minister. The more times like these, the more we need to be vigilant and careful, and not leave any leverage on West German Sony.

Leaving that report on Sidneyso's desk, Wakari left the office, he had an important business event to attend to, and downstairs he had the duty officer to remind him as soon as Sidneyso returned

In this way, the Business Alliance, which should have been the first to receive news, began to face an unprepared storm surge because of the hesitation of the young deputy minister, and in the afternoon, the news of the massacre from Besuca had spread throughout Lisbonto, and the merchants poured into the Business Alliance branch like a tidal wave.

"With such a stern massacre of merchants, shouldn't the business alliance be held responsible?"

"Sidneysso, let Sidneysso come out!" The merchants shouted, Sidneysso rushed over from behind, so the forces did not know that Sidneysso was also dead, and the person who pulled the lead and took the lead was Sidneysso of the Business Alliance, and now all the families have died because of this, and the Business Alliance is to blame

The businessmen blocked the intersection of the branch of the business alliance and shouted loudly, and the crowd of people in the congestion became more and more, and soon hundreds of people gathered, including businessmen and smugglers, because they didn't see anyone coming out, some businessmen rushed into the branch and smashed the desk, and the clerks in the branch were frightened and hid in panic

Whakali, who got the news, was blocked at the door on the way back to the branch, and got out of the carriage The young deputy minister, his eyes had already seen several big businessmen who were not false to him in the past, his eyes swept over the merchants gathered, and Vakali, who wanted to find out the situation, tightened his eyebrows together, not only the merchants of the business alliance came, but also many big smugglers who were rarely seen on weekdays, the local merchants of Putao, the wealthy merchants of the empire, and the merchants from the southwest and northwest regions, all seemed to gather together at once

"Hell, what the hell is going on?"

A bad premonition rose in Wakali's heart, he vaguely heard the news about the Besuka massacre, but he had not yet determined the authenticity of the news, and now it seemed that there was no need to be sure, the people gathered here were enough to show that in normal times, orthodox merchants and smugglers were mortal enemies, but now they stood together,

"Could it be that ......?"

Whakali's body trembled slightly, and a message flashed through his mind, he heard that Sidneysor seemed to be encouraging the merchants to carry out a big plan, and Sidneysor even did not shy away from saying that if this plan succeeded, the merchants of Ruierdian could dominate the trade initiative of Putao for at least twenty years, "Let Sidneyso come to me!" A balding merchant came out of the crowd, wearing a gorgeous dress with gold threads, ten fingers with emerald and red gemstone rings, the cigarette in his hand was unceremoniously extinguished on the door of the business alliance, and said with a fierce attitude, "Your Excellency Pahaira, this is the branch of the business alliance! Please pay attention to your words, I will find Minister Sidneyso, I hope everyone can calm down."

Wakari's face sank, he knew this bald middle-aged man, Paheira, the largest smuggler in the Putao area, it is said that he sells everything, even prisoners of war and slaves, a bastard who smells of blood all over his body, but his wealth is also amazing, it is said that he already has a net worth of more than three million, "Business Alliance? Hehe, this is Putao! Here, my words are more effective than your business alliance!" The bald middle-aged man was arrogant, threw the cigarette butt in his hand on the ground, stepped on it with his foot and crushed it left and right, and grinned slightly at the corner of his mouth, revealing a mouthful of white teeth: "Vakali, sue Sù Sidniso, if he is still hiding, we will smash this place! We have killed a lot of people this time, if there is no explanation, I want him to pay with blood!" And I have come to tell you the business alliance in particular, we will not be so resigned, look, we are going to stop the entire Putao's commerce, and let the empire see our power!" "You!"

Whakali's face turned a little red, he had a premonition that something was wrong, and if the entire Putao's business was shut down, it would be an absolutely disastrous consequence.

After he immediately called Sidneyso's deputy to ask, Wakali frowned slightly, what! Minister Sidneysso also went to Besuka! When? three days ago...... Wakali's head was numb with a bang, three days ago, the massacre, there was not the slightest news that Sidneyso was also affected, but no news is just news, such a tragic massacre, unless Sidneyso is imprisoned, there will be news, he thought of that article, and now he can't care so much,

He tore open the seal paint on the text with one hand, took out the original report from it, and swept his gaze, and the whole person was stunned: "Sidneyso is dead! Besuka's personnel did not find Sidneyso's body, but they had received news from the army that it was the military minister Valisian who gave the order for the massacre, and with this report, Vakari had a shuddering feeling that such an important deacon of the Business Alliance, in front of the Imperial army, died like a piece of autumn leaves swept by the autumn wind without any weight at all.

But the next moment, the corners of his mouth suddenly laughed again, Sidneyso is dead! Then he is the head of the Putau Branch, as for the threat of shutdown of those arrogant smugglers, who cares, the Imperial army even killed Sidneysso, and it has already been shown that the fate of any who tries to resist, these smugglers themselves will hit the knife edge, and they deserve to be killed

In a manor on the top of a hill on the outskirts of Besuka, Hukochili, who was holding a secret report in his hand, pushed open the door of the office, and saw the lord with his hands behind his back, representing the mysterious short black hair fluttering in the wind, like a black crown on his head, his black eyes as bright as starlight, like a god who controls all beings, are staring at the majestic city view of Besuka City under the mountain, I don't know why, Hukochili suddenly had an illusion, it seems that in this roaring world, the whole Gangfei is as if he is quietly stepping under his feet, "Your Majesty, the news from the Lisbon Intelligence Department that those big smugglers have really started to contact, and they plan to shut down commerce in the Putau area in the next three days!" Hukochili said with a respectful and calm face, "The army is ready, this time the 40,000 men of the Second Army of the Southern Army of Salton, who are at odds with the Ryrdian faction, as long as the other party starts to stop, the army will confiscate all goods and property in the name of seizing smuggling, and the Imperial Navy will completely cut off the route of retreat by sea!" Oh, the other party finally couldn't help it!" The young man came back to his senses from the window, and smiled at the corner of his mouth, "I've been raising them for two years, these guys are eating a lot of money here, and they are full of fat and oil, and this time they even dare to reach out to the imperial military affairs, I hope they won't let me down! It's not easy to have a good harvest!"

Let's look at Quanguo today.,It says you can use the revocation key to restore fù.,I tried.,At the moment of restoration,I really want to say to myself, "You pig" (to be continued......
