Chapter 15 Conversation
The most surprising thing about Austin's return was that Bai Tingyue saw the other party jump to death with his own eyes, but he didn't expect the other party's luck to be so strong, so he didn't die. Although there is no aggressive Charlotte on the outside now, his situation is not good. Empire, too many people have already been bought.
If you want to pull out your hand to clean them up, the outside will take advantage of the situation, and if you leave the internal situation alone, it will only make the external forces bigger. If the other party blindly puts the goal on himself, there is a way to do it once and for all. However, with Austin's return, the other party's plan changed faster than expected, and even did not hesitate to withdraw all his own people who had gained a certain amount of power in the empire.
The rise of the entire town has only been a year, and it is already jaw-dropping in terms of economy, military, and politics.
It seems that it is time to go and talk.
After Li Feng left the organ city, he returned to his stronghold, and when Charlotte saw Li Feng coming alone, she asked with some surprise, "Your Highness, why didn't Miss Nangong come back with you." ”
Li Feng nodded and said, "Let's go back together first." ”
When Li Feng and Charlotte and the others were about to leave the imperial capital, there was a person waiting outside the door, facing this person, Charlotte hesitated a little, and then whispered to Li Feng: "Your Highness, that person is Bai Tingyue." ”
Li Feng nodded and came forward to say, "General Bai has been admired for a long time. ”
"Fourth prince, long time no see. Bai Tingyue said, Li Feng smiled when he heard it, didn't say anything, and said directly.
"General Bai, you must have something to say when you came alone, right? We are leaving, please make a long story short. Li Feng said.
"I want you to give up your support for the rebels of the Empire. Bai Tingyue said.
Li Feng smiled and said, "General Bai is surprised by this, we are friendly with the empire, as a friendly state, how can we support your country's rebels." ”
"Your Highness, I came this time, just to represent myself, and did not have any position, when you fought with me outside the town, you said that my choice at that time was the most wrong, and the result is just as you said, the situation in the empire is indeed a little difficult to control, but this also shows that my choice at that time was also correct, without you, this situation will only be three months at most, and it will collapse, Miss Charlotte, do you say?"
"People are not as good as heaven, Your Highness survived. If Your Highness had not died, we would not have collapsed. So, do you know that your calculations have failed, and you have come to sue for peace?" replied Charlotte defiantly.
Bai Tingyue was not embarrassed at all, and said: "Yes, your assassination plan is meaningless to me, even if you control the southeast, there is nothing, but if Your Highness is alive, you are the existence of a threat to the empire." ”
"Then shouldn't you be desperate to kill us here?" Li Feng said with some curiosity.
"Your Highness is really joking, this is the imperial capital, and I haven't been unscrupulous enough to kill you here. When you leave the Imperial Capital, it's no longer something I can kill. However, I can tell you something that interests you. ”
"What's the matter?"
"The Nangong family, although they have hid in the organ city, they may not be safe. ”
When Li Feng heard this, he frowned slightly, is it a threat? No, as the god of the army, Bai Tingyue really has no need to use such an unpopular method.
"What do you mean?"
"In order to suppress the erosion of the Magic Forest on the human race, why is it in the Nangong family? The choice of land is not a simple random choice, there is a lot of exquisiteness. It's not very important, but it's not something that can be easily ignored. ”
"What good will it do us if we give up our aid to the rebels? If we don't block you, you are leading the army to fight us? To tell you the truth, unless the difference in strength is tenfold, otherwise, you will always be our henchman. ”
"Time is running out, I'll quickly deal with the internal affairs, and I'm ready to integrate it later, dealing with the demons, it's not something we can deal with if we're divided. Bai Tingyue said.
"It's hard to say, we are weak, but the forces that can be eliminated after repeated times are not worth talking about in the overall situation. Li Feng said politely.
Bai Tingyue shook his head slightly and said, "Starting next month, we will have to sort out the chaotic empire." When it comes to integration in the future, we can't let the empire be scattered, can we?"
After speaking, Bai Tingyue left.
When Bai Tingyue left, Li Feng's face became solemn, and Charlotte said comfortingly: "Your Highness, Bai Tingyue's words, should we believe it?"
After Li Feng glanced at the imperial capital, he said, "If we really support splitting the other party, let them stop moving for the time being." There are a lot of things that I need to understand before I can act. However, we must not put ourselves in danger because of this. Arrange it. ”
"Yes, Your Highness. ”
Bai Ting jumped on top of the city tower and looked at Li Feng and his party who had left, "The pattern that has been calm for five hundred years is about to be destroyed again." If you don't get rid of those inside, you can't resist them. I really envy them. ”
Bai Tingyue couldn't help but say, then shook off his robe and left.
Li Feng returned to the town smoothly in this way, and everyone was excited to wait for the city wall again. In just a few months, there has been a big gap between the town and Charlotte's introduction. Looking at the huge steam engine, there is really a sense of power, but I really like those small, delicate, and technological things, this thing is really too noisy and choking. Compared to the one in the Trap City, it needs to be improved.
Li Feng said: "This steam engine is quite complete, what kind of strength has this metal material reached?" Li Feng asked.
Kalian began to introduce them one by one, although Li Feng didn't know a lot, but he still knew some more or less, or he didn't need to know much, he could feel it, the difference in the sense of the times was like a comparison of the difference in the times in his own world, that is, Qianlong died in the same year. But one feels ancient, while the other, is the gap between modernity.
There is still a backward feudal society over there, and the industrial revolution has already begun here.
"The previous things have been taken away by Bai Tingyue, this is an improved type, and the power has been increased by 30% of the previous one. ”
Li Feng asked, "Did I mention the means of transportation that uses the steam engine to walk before?" Li Feng asked, and then gestured, Kalian said, "Is it a steam train?"
"Yes, is there really this?"
"There's no way to make this thing smaller, but with the plan we've made, you'd suggest we set our sights on the sea. ”
"Well, it doesn't matter, there is a mature structural design of a small-volume steam engine, you can refer to it, Kalian, you design this first, we can try to build a railroad first, together with us and the city there." ”
