1623 Northwest (VIII)

"Tsk, it's very badly injured, isn't it suing you guys, you want to catch it alive?" The fat man walked into the room, looked at Igna who was tied up with five flowers, and his deep voice was slightly dissatisfied, as if he was commenting on an unqualified cargo, missing here, missing there, and finally said in a somewhat uncertain tone, "It won't die like this?"

Hu Keqi replied, "No, it just looks very strict, in fact, he just fell off the running warhorse, this guy is very strong, he can still jump alive after breaking three ribs on the left, the military doctor with the team has already seen the wound, in order to prevent him from tossing himself, so he has to tie him up like this, except for a little internal bleeding, it will not be life-threatening for the time being!"

"Let it go...... Let go of me!"

Igna saw a slightly chubby vague figure walking over in a daze, a pair of black eyes looked at him, and as Hukochili spoke, a qiē memory swept over, and in his mind, a man looked at him with contempt flashed, "Bastard, it's the voice of the person who made himself lose face" Ignatia gritted his teeth and struggled, only to find that his body, which had been jolting on the horse for more than an hour, was completely like a fight, his hands and feet and his humiliating way were tied to a bed, and he had no force at all, except for his eyes that could blink helplessly, even his fingers were laborious, and his mouth was stuffed with a thick cloth, and his angry shouts could only make whining sounds, and a disgusting stench only rushed to his head, obviously the stinky socks that a certain enemy had just worn on his feet. "Well, it does look like it's alive"

The fat man pursed his lips, he didn't have the slightest interest in this capture captain, the reason why he ordered Hu Keqi to capture it alive was only because the other party might be from the Gallic Kyoto Janissaries, for this most powerful military group in the Gallic Empire, the legends of the outside world always carry too much personal color, what Emperor Xi à The sharpest spear. What invincible elite division, although it is prestigious, but most of it is hearsay, and no one has really seen the Praetorian Guard participate in the war,

According to the fat man's point of view, the Palean Guard of the Gallic Empire may have been a strong heavy cavalry regiment at the time of the founding of the country, sweeping through the entire Gaul region, and was the pro-army of the Gallic Emperor, but it didn't matter if it was well-equipped, the combat effectiveness of an army. Equipment is only a part, training is a part, what is really decided is actual combat, the last time the Gallic Empire Praetorian Guard participated in the war was a few decades ago, an army that has not experienced the test of war for half a century, an army that has been soaked in incense powder in Gallic Kyoto for hundreds of years, no matter how strong it is, it can't be stronger there!

According to the information Angelio said, the military force that staged the coup d'état in Rosende this time turned out to be the Praetorian Guard from Kyoto. Kyoto's direct intervention with such an ugly appearance made the fat man have to face up to this matter, and the Gallic Emperor finally couldn't help but take action himself, and the northwest is likely to face a huge crisis. The fat man needs to know how many people the Kyoto Praetorian Guard came this time, and what kind of troops they were, except for Rusende. Is there any other area that has been adversarial, and this qiē is undoubtedly in the mind of the capture captain, "What about that woman? Very interesting to this guy?" the fat man turned around with a solemn expression, he knew that he was afraid that he would not be able to ask anything at this time, and the deep voice made Igna's body stiffen unconsciously,

Woman? What woman? Igna, who was stunned for a moment, suddenly struggled violently, Gwen Dolini!

Igna's eyes were full of hideous and terrible bloodshots, he remembered that before he fainted, Gwendorini took the initiative to ask to see the other party's leading officer in order to save everyone, and a wave of blood rushed to the top of his head, a man actually needs a woman to sell himself to be able to live, he is really incompetent, but his efforts are obviously useless, except for a few more whines in his mouth,

Hukochili just glanced at Igna strangely, and his voice was like ice to cut through his anger, "Yes, that's right, my subordinates can be sure! Although that woman said that she asked not to kill everyone, in fact, we can all see that there is only one person that the woman really cares about!"

"It's this guy, although I don't know what the relationship is, but it shouldn't be as simple as lovers! It's a pity that the relationship between the two gives people a very wrong feeling from the beginning."

"I don't have much interest in other people's privacy, I just hope that the two of them are really what you say, otherwise, this plan will be a bit troublesome!" The fat man nodded with a grim face, since this most important chip is not dead, it doesn't matter if the others are different,

He instructed the guard at the door, "Sue Dr. Sù, treat him well" and then glanced at Igna, whose eyes were blood-red, and said coldly, "Don't look at me like this, your woman has nothing to do with me, and it will not have anything to do with it in the future, and even now, I haven't seen her"

"Woo-woo" Igna's eyes widened angrily, and his mouth made a whining sound, like a wounded beast that was extremely wounded

"If you still want that stupid woman to have a glimmer of hope of living, just do what we say! If you want to see her again, you must first live! Otherwise, if I don't say anything, if you really die, her fate will be difficult to say."

The corners of the fat man's mouth twitched slightly, he was just testing it just now, but he didn't expect the other party's reaction to be so big, Hu Keqili's judgment was correct, this person and that woman are definitely not ordinary superiors and subordinates, this is easy to do, this man is the concern of that woman, since the woman is willing to make sacrifices for him, then she is naturally willing to tell a big lie for this man. The fat man seemed unwilling to say anything more, turned around and walked to the door of the room, and Hukochili hurriedly followed,

"Smack"

A guard at the doorway opened the door,

The fat man's eyes narrowed slightly, and a ray of golden sunlight shone down, and the huge Xinhai City was displayed in front of him, on the huge line of ports, merchant ships gathered, and the place where the fat man stood was the fourth floor of the Imperial Navy Office Building,

"Is there anything else?" asked the fat man, looking into the distance, pausing by the door, and whispering

A cold light flashed in Hukochili's eyes, and he said affirmatively, "Absolutely not, except for this woman, all of them have been disposed of, even if it is a corpse, we have all put an arrow on its head!

"It's just that woman......" Hukochili hesitated for a moment

"Close the door!"

The fat man interrupted him with a wave of his hand. With a wave of his hand to the guard at the door, the door of the room was slammed shut, the sun was shining outside the window, the sea breeze was gentle, and the room was cold and bitingly isolated, Igna felt a darkness in front of him, and did not notice,

On the other side of the room, a small window-like opening with a pair of bright eyes containing affection. It also disappeared as the gate closed

"You should rest assured, we really didn't kill him!I hope you can do it according to plan, otherwise, we can't guarantee that he will survive" The fat man turned and looked to the other side of the hallway of the room, where Gwendorinie and Angelio were standing

"Actually, you should thank me, at least, your relationship with him no longer needs to be hidden! It's all because they don't dare to find out, and in the end they go their separate ways!" The fat man looked at the carriage in the distance, took a deep breath, and turned back from his office window. There seemed to be a bit of self-deprecation in his eyes

Over the next two days, the Northwest Coast Army began to assemble in secret, and the meeting of the military arrangements was held secretly in the Admiralty building, and the generals present were confused. Why is the Falcon so sure that there will be a big change on the part of the Lord, and it will even affect the northwest coast. But His Majesty Falcon didn't say anything, and no one dared to ask, the Admiralty building was completely closed to the outside world for the past two days, and all the generals attending the meeting were secretly ordered not to leave the building for a single step, and the accommodation rooms had already been prepared, and the food was delivered directly to the rooms by the guards.

Three days later, a shocking and unbelievable event, like a hurricane swept the entire northwest, the Duke of Rose's most trusted attendant Angelio, wrapped up his own mother and the duke's young son to defect, but was captured by the capture team that tracked all the way in the northwest coast area, in the chaos of the battle, the frenzied attendant Angelio killed the important hostage of the Duchess and the duke's favorite young son, because of this incident, the entire northwest coast ordered to capture this traitor who defected and murdered his mistress and prince,

And on the side of the Oxend, who has always been strong in foreign affairs, this time, the reaction was rarely silent, and when everyone couldn't see through this, the Duke of Rosender announced his abdication and passed the Principality of Roseend to his eldest son Locke, who had hardly met for more than 20 years.

"This is a mess of fratricidal warfare."

The forces of all parties suddenly realized, not to mention the rest of the northwest, even within the Rosend, there are very few people who know that the duke had a wife and son more than 20 years ago, and this sudden heir, as well as the sudden succession of the duke, seem to have cleared the confusion of the previous silence on this matter, because the Angelio attendant, who was already notorious in the northwest, has been transformed and was unexpectedly appointed by the new duke as the minister of the interior of the principality!

On the sixth day of the new duke's ascension to the throne, news came from Kyoto that the order and candidate of the Northwest Governor-General, who had been delayed for half a month by His Majesty the Emperor, had finally been promulgated, and the Marquis of Stanley Binsay, who had experience in the eastern battlefield and served as the deputy commander-in-chief of the Janissaries, was appointed Commander-in-Chief of the Northwest Region of the Empire, with full authority to take charge of the military and political affairs of the Northwest.

And this time, in order to stabilize the northwest of the empire, His Majesty the Emperor specially allowed the Praetorian Guard, which had not left Kyoto for decades, to send 10,000 heavy cavalry to accompany Stanley Spencer to the northwest, and at the same time the Third Army of the Empire stationed in the Luxembourg area,

When the news came, the entire northwest was in an uproar,

The Praetorian Guard has 10,000 heavy cavalry, counting the servant army, it has reached an objective 50,000 people, and the third army, one of the main forces of the empire, has a total strength of more than 110,000 people, a full 180,000 imperial troops, which is already one-third of the current internal military strength of the empire, and the entire northwest is stunned.

Everyone's eyes suddenly focused on the northwest coast, where the power was rapidly expanding to the entire northwest, and everyone knew that if you want to control the northwest, it is tantamount to provoking the northwest coast, which is definitely at the level of a big brother in terms of military and economic strength.

Everyone wants to see how the northwest coast in the eyes of this storm vortex will react to the fact that His Majesty's war whip against the northwest has been waved!

It's a pity that the reaction of the northwest coast was beyond everyone's expectations, and it was as if the news had not been heard at all, and the interior was in order. It's like a violent man who has just turned a brick from his neighbor, and he turned around and played an elegant piano in the room, a beautiful melody, and he couldn't hear the slightest anger just now. This weirdness makes the entire Northwest look weird, and everyone still remembers that the Northwest Coast was so silent at the beginning, and then suddenly sent troops to fight the anti-Julils coalition and lost their armor

The strongest reaction to this turned out to be a country that everyone did not expect. Ruosende, the oldest power in the northwest region, although it seems to be in decline since the rise of the northwest coast region, but the great power heritage still exists.

"Northwest, it should be the northwest of the Northwest people!"

Duke Locke, who seemed to have reached the pinnacle of the principality's power by a bit of improper means, immediately showed that he was not inferior to the northwest coast at all before the news that the whole northwest felt the storm. He proposed that the northwest should be united, and said that Rosende was willing to stand in the camp of the united front with the northwest coast, and the two countries were united. The army exceeded 200,000, which was enough to cope with the pressure from the Northwest Commander-in-Chief, and as soon as this remark came out, even the Duke of Denia, who had always been at odds with Rosend, rarely expressed his appreciation. and expressed his willingness to unite with Denia, Rosende, and the Northwest Coast. Form a Northwest Territory Alliance to counter pressure from the Kyodo side.

"It's so dangerous, if you don't know the inside story, you might really be fooled this time!"

The fat man put his legs on the desk, picked up a copy of the latest Northwest dynamic report on the desktop, and sneered at the corner of his mouth,

I have to admit that this time Kyoto has done a very beautiful job, the inside and the outside should be combined, the cooperation is close, the layout is breathtaking, and I don't know which conspirator's handwriting, it is really interlocking, and it is impossible to prevent it.

First of all, the army that is enough to shake the entire northwest is pressurized, and then in this case, the northwest will inevitably be panicked, and then let the Ru Sende, who is the inner line of Kyoto, jump out, and the sentence "Northwest, it should be the northwest of the Northwest people" did not pay a single soldier, and did not spend a penny, and won the hearts of many people in the northwest.

In the case of silence on the northwest coast, there are faint signs of keeping up with Rusende in other regions, after all, Rusende is the oldest power in the northwest, and has had the opportunity to become the lord of the northwest many times.

This is also the original intention of the fat man to remain silent for the time being, once all parties form a coalition, the situation is no longer under their control, the earliest mention of yì, and the most resolute attitude, the most enthusiastic Zende, will inevitably become one of the leaders of the coalition,

The whole battle plan is completely exposed, every move of the side is all exposed under the eyes of the other party, the coalition army is in front, the army is behind, as long as the logistics of the coalition army are cut off, the army will collapse, this war can not be fought at all, the only way is to drag it first, the army in Kyoto seems to be menacing, but in order to achieve the best effect of cooperation, it must come slowly, until the main force of the coalition army attacks to meet the battle, and the situation is controlled, it will accelerate violently, so as to defeat the coalition army with a blow,

But the situation is so delicate, Rusende's preemptive strike has already occupied the initiative of public opinion in the northwest, even if he finds out that Rusende is a traitor in Kyoto, it will only make other regions look down on the northwest coast even more, "I don't want to fight, and I don't let others fight!" After all, in this potentially devastating storm, a strong leader who can gather all the forces is the opportunity for the northwest to survive, and even in Xinhai City, many merchants on the northwest coast were also encouraged by Rusende's words, and asked His Majesty the Falcon to take on the responsibility of saving the northwest.

"Smack"

The door of the office was pushed open, Hu Keqili walked over with a somewhat solemn face, holding a copy of the document in his hand, and said indignantly: "Your Majesty, look at this, Rusende has just sent a letter of alliance to all the forces in the Northwest Region, inviting the heads of all forces to hold an alliance meeting in the capital of Rusende in five days! And with this article, I'm afraid that other forces will rush over even if they are still drifting to the ground, and my subordinates feel that this is definitely a trap for Rusende."

"Are you saying that the other party found out that we weren't fooled, so they just flashed their knives, to be honest, I have some admiration for the person who made this plan!"

The fat man took the text, his eyes swept over, and the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, "As long as the heads of all parties arrive, when the time comes, it will be suddenly launched, and it will be served directly, and the Kyoto army will quickly press the border, the dragons will be leaderless, and it is useless to have an army in the northwest, one blow to kill, and take the northwest in the shortest time with the smallest loss, it is really quite exciting!"

"Your Majesty, it's useless to just admire, what should we do now?" Hu Keqili said a little anxiously

"Since he sent an invitation, we will naturally go, we can't let everyone point at our backbone and scold!" The fat man smiled faintly and put down the text in his hand (to be continued......
