Chapter 47 A father can bear it, but a brother can't help it
Marcus got on Alexander's woman?
No way!
How bold is that dead fat man?!
No, that fat man is so stupid, will he be tricked?
But what did Elizabeth give Marcus so much of a bargain for?
With this in mind, I sent for a few days in a row to give Daddy Cheap a time to meet with me, not only because of Elizabeth, the Queen of Russia, but also because of a plan to fight the Empire for years to come.
In the past year, I have taken advantage of the French alien concept of the Marine Corps, by tying the Imperial Legion to warships, going back and forth between the Italian Peninsula, the Spanish Peninsula and the border between the Empire and the Arabs, with less than 50,000 men, I have pinned down more than twice or even three times the enemy, and defeated and wounded a large number of infidels, which can be regarded as pushing the situation that plagued the southern part of the Empire to our advantage, and in the secondary battlefield of the Spanish Peninsula, we have shocked the will of the French army and its allies to fight, and in the Italian Peninsula, the main battlefield of the future, we have suddenly stunned the French alliesIn the future, a large part of the rest of the battle will be completed by us and the French.
It's a good thing to cut off the wings of the French, but then we're left with the French in the ring, and that's what I'm worried about, and I guess we're going to be in a very difficult situation for a long time to come.
I've fought with the French, so I know that those guys, though not very good at dealing with situations outside of their common sense, are going to compete with the perceptions and rules of their time. We can't beat them.
"So?"
Ten days later, inside the palace. Faced with Caesar's seemingly asking for advice, I spoke my mind.
"My idea is to keep the war at a stalemate. The German region continued to be on the defensive, and the Italian region replaced Alexander and put him in Egypt. The legions and fleets that had accompanied Alexander in the Mediterranean were all sent to Egypt. ”
"Isn't this a pity that we have worked so hard to get the battle situation?"
"Caesar, it is not like you to focus on the petty profits that are in front of you! Moreover, isn't your last object to make peace with the French? Then you have to take it when you see it!"
"You seem to be very afraid of the French. ”
"Of course! One is an enemy who is only stronger than us, and the other is my brother! If we use our tactics a few more times, we will be countered by the French against our style of play!" I shouted.
"Is there a weakness in your setup?"
My eyes widened, isn't this nonsense, which tactics and strategies in this world are not weak: "Speed! The front and back of our boarding is our biggest weakness!"
"But isn't Alexander's arranging cavalry from the fleet to charge us a great victory?"
"It was a raid! a tactic that the French commander-in-chief did not expect! It could only be used once. You can't use it a second time!" I suddenly found that Cheap Daddy's tactical cultivation was really not flattering. It turns out that Caesar of the Roman Empire was not omnipotent!
"Good. ”
Hearing this answer, I exhaled slowly.
"Clerk, make a note that the Prince of the Navy thinks that in the next stage we should stop the offensive operations with a positive attitude, and argues for this, but his proposal is rejected by the United Front Work Department. Then, sort it out and release this news to the ministries and corps. ”
I was stunned. What is he doing here?
If this news spreads, won't it force all the Roman legions to desperately seek a decisive battle with the French!
It was as if I could see the next few months. Because of this sentence, the Roman Empire suffered countless defeats, and many Roman legions to prove their glory were ambushed and soldiers died on the battlefield.
I was furious: "You're murdering! Murdering the lives of Imperial soldiers!"
"Murder? no, I am training soldiers for the Empire, I am training generals with excellent military literacy for the Empire, only in the face of danger, people will burst out of their strength, Nikephorus, my son, I look forward to their performance. ”
My eyes widened with anger, and I felt that the person in front of me was really unreasonable: "But you can't pay for the lives of soldiers and the lives of Alexander!"
"Alexander, he is now the emperor, you are the crown prince, and if you are unfortunate enough to be right, it will be of great benefit to the growth of your prestige. As for those who died in battle, stupid people are not entitled to live. ”
"And what about the territory of Russia! If Alexander dies and you vomit out all the territory you swallowed, you, Caesar, will be the biggest joke the empire has ever seen!" I threatened.
"It's nothing, don't I still have your son!"
An evil fire makes me feel the urge to punch someone!
"And I'm sure you've already told him what to do, so I'm relieved of his safety. ”
I kept saying, "What if I die too!"
"Then I'll marry her. ”
Listening to that flat and calm voice, I laughed angrily: "If Caesar marries a bitch, what will history say about you in the future!"
"I don't care, so I also ask my sons not to care. ”
"But I care! Do you know what to do! That bitch, in front of the palace guards, seduced me in front of everyone! A woman who seduced her brother and had a bad moral reputation, what does this make Alexander do in the future! How to be an emperor! How to command dozens of legions under his command!"
Foaming at the foam on the gorgeous Caesar robe on the other side, I realized that I seemed to be too excited, angry because I was going to take Alexander's green hat?
Inside the hall, a few of the entourages did not dare to make a sound.
"If just a little bit makes you angry, I think you'd better not go out of the palace, or even close your ears, and stop listening to other people. ”
I gritted my teeth and said, "What's going on!"
Caesar on the other side didn't say anything, and I asked the attendants around me, "What's the matter!?
They were silent, and I grabbed one of the nearest fellows and put my arms around his neck: "Say! What do Caesar mean?"
"Don't embarrass these attendants, they don't dare to say anything if they know the truth. Daddy's voice paused, "Go down." ”
"Yes!"
Frightened attendants and guards exited the hall.
"So, is it true that Marcus got into Elizabeth's bed?" I couldn't believe it, "Marcus, that piece of shit!
Who is Marcus?
That's that waste cousin!
The kind of waste that even needs Penevis to operate and deliver a letter even to build a post office, and as a result, it has been delayed for more than half a year, and nothing can be done, but it is still a waste that is above the top!
I thought that if he didn't have the ability, he would at least have his own loyalty, but I didn't expect him to betray us!
"Of course it's true, I also know that today she sneaked out of Lu and was with that Marcus again. ”
Marcus's face overlapped Elizabeth's, which reminded me of Marcus's fat body stirring on Elizabeth's flesh.
"You know what Lu Dao is, you know Lu Dao, what are you doing for her! Why don't you stop her!" I gritted my teeth, even that kind of waste, she wants to seduce, isn't this a slap in Alexander's face,
"She's that kind of woman, one more and one less, is there a difference? and, with her, I can find out all the unusable waste of the palace guards through her. This is good. ”
"But now she's taking revenge on your son!"
"Revenge, no, my son, Nikephoros, she's not revenge, I know what she's up to, she's paralyzing us, and the more she goes out of line, the more we despise her. When we are blinded by hatred and contempt, that's when we meet our doom. ”
"So for the sake of your overall situation, you just kept quiet and watched?" I asked.
"Yes. ”
With this reply, I turned around and stepped away.
"Where are you going?"
"You father can't bear it! I, a brother, can't bear it!"
"Caesar..."
Angry, I walked out of the door and realized that I seemed to have heard something just now, but it seemed that it was just me and Cheap Daddy in the room, and when I looked back, I saw that it was still the two of us.
Auditory hallucinations? (To be continued......)
