2159 Blood Double Cross (XVIII)
Putting down the secret letter written by Francilar in cipher, Hayera, the governor of the Eastern Province, agreeing to submit to the empire, the fat man immediately found the commander-in-chief of the navy, Dustrenkay, stuffed him with a foreign affairs document that he had just signed, and said a little mysteriously, "Haven't you been complaining about the detention of the main force of the navy, which is a waste, then tomorrow on behalf of the empire, lead a detachment of the fleet to Istanbul and Kyoto."
"Going to the waters of Istanbul and Kyoto? It's not going to be Istanbul, is it going to be Kyoto?"
Dustrunkai was taken aback, his face hesitated, and he said, " Your Majesty, with all due respect, the empire and Faysan have reached the most critical moment of the battle, hundreds of thousands of troops on both sides have been lined up, and the Bavaried region, where the troops of both sides continue to enter, has been recognized as a decisive battle field that is on the verge of breaking out and may swallow countless lives at any time, at this time there is really no need to provoke the Istan people, although the life and death of the Emperor Soladin I of the Empire is unknown, and the national strength has weakened rapidly, but there is also an imperial foundation covering an area of thousands of kilometers and a huge population, even if the empire uses troops with all its might, it is not something that can be gnawed down in a short time"War against the Empire of Istanbul?rest assured, I have no such plans!" Dustrenkai saw the falcon roll his eyes at him, turned around and picked up a letter with a gorgeous cover from the table, and handed it over with one hand, "You will know by looking at it"
The fat man said angrily and ridiculously on his face, "Istanbul, I don't know where I learned the news that the remnants of more than 100,000 Istanbul troops are in our hands. They even sent people to negotiate and demand that we return the remnants of the hundreds of thousands of Iraqi troops."
"Return? Istanbul hasn't woken up yet! It's so naïve!"
Hearing this, even the corners of Dustrunkai's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly, and he said with some resentment: "After Emperor Soladin." The Iranian Empire obviously has no successor, and even such a ridiculous request can be made!" "That's not likely!"
The fat man laughed, "The second prince has always wanted to ascend to the emperor's throne, but now the minister's support is there, but because of the rebels, the military and the region have not sold his account very much, and even he wanted to stuff that hash into the military department, but he was rejected by those generals on the grounds that his qualifications were too shallow." Of course, it can't be said that the second prince is completely mediocre. As long as this can really be done, hundreds of thousands of elites of the Istanbul Empire will return to China, and it is inevitable that they will be grateful to the second prince, and they will also get a military force that is enough to control the center of the empire. It's hard to say whether the second prince or the second prince can really become Soladin II.
"But such an opportunity is absolutely impossible to give to him in vain!" the fat man snorted coldly in his voice
"What does Majesty mean?" Dustrenkai blinked, the heart of the falcon has always been too dark, and the falcon's claws never fail! If you make a deal with this, you will exchange these hundreds of thousands of remnants of the Iraqi army for the eternal sinking of the Iraqi Empire after its vitality is greatly damaged, according to the means of the Falcon. If you don't pull off a layer of skin from the Istanbul Empire, you will never let go, and the fat man really looked slightly cold and waved his hand. Said
"I have already given a reply, it is okay to ask for people, but more than 100,000 people eat and chew in my place, and the daily consumption is astronomical, so you can't eat and drink in vain, and you need at least 20 million gold coins to compensate. And the Imperial fleet doesn't have so much spare time to help them with the Baiyun people, so it's okay to go back. But if you encounter pirates or something on the way, it will be difficult to say, the fat man smiled meaningfully, "The road is not smooth, the emperor of the Istanbul Empire is not attacked by pirates, life and death are unknown, of course, the imperial navy can come forward to escort the ship, but the price is not cheap, a ship at least 100,000 tolls!" "A ship costs 100,000 tolls!"
Dustrenkai felt that his hairs stood on end, he had seen something black, he had never seen such a black one, he had basically figured it out, that's right, the claws of the falcon had been stretched out, and the target was the pocket of Istanbul Kyoto,
The basic compensation of 20 million gold coins, according to the current vitality of the capital, even tens of thousands of rebels can not deal with Istanbul Kyoto, if you sell the treasures in the imperial palace, it is possible to make up it, but a boat will cost 100,000 tolls,
More than 100,000 people, how many ships do you have to transport? That's an incalculable sky-high toll "If you don't give money, the Imperial Navy will let you sink all the way to the sea!" This kind of naked threat, it is estimated that the fat man, the rogue emperor, dared to say with a shy face,
If Istanbul really pays this money clearly, at least for 20 years, Istanbul Kyoto will be burdened with a huge fiscal deficit and will be overwhelmed.
Of course, the Kyoto side of Istanbul will definitely find a way to use various means to fill this huge financial hole, and the vitality is greatly damaged, and they do not want to recuperate, but all kinds of exploitation are becoming more and more intense, and the final result is that the national strength of the Istanbul Empire is completely overdrawn, shrinking, and even causing the contradictions accumulated in the country to overturn, or the outbreak of civil war and separation, I believe that the second prince is still clear in his heart,
But in front of a long-awaited imperial emperor's crown, who dares to say that the second prince will not gamble!
Three days later, the Falcon Empire's Admiral, the Falcon Emperor's envoy, Dustrunkai, personally led the Empire's Second Fleet's sixteen Imperial Dragon's Tooth warships and four huge Dragon-class warships to appear in the sea near Kyoto, Istanbul.
As the emperor's envoy, Dustrenkai was fully responsible for the negotiations with Istanbul, "Did you hear, the Admiral Minister of the Falcon Empire is coming to congratulate the new emperor on his accession to the throne!" "What is this, I also heard that the Admiral Minister is also bringing a princess of the Falcon Empire" "Bring a princess?" "Silly, of course it was given to the Emperor as a concubine!" "But I heard that the emperor of the Falcon Empire is less than thirty years old, so his daughter ......" Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, but I heard that the Falcon Emperor is sixty years old this year!"
All kinds of news are circulating in the streets and alleys of Istanbul Kyoto, from the distant sea across the ship, from the tentacles of another powerful empire, are enough to become people's after-dinner conversation, the real purpose of the imperial navy, only a few high-level people know, most of the Istanbul civilians are still living in the glory of the Istanbul Empire, although the rebels are panicking outside, but I heard that it has been suppressed, and it will not be long before it will be exterminated by His Royal Highness the Second Prince himself, and the materials are in short supply, but the merchant ships that come and go every day are still coming and going, and the materials will gradually increase, and there are still so many people on the streets, only half-open and half-hidden shops, only to reveal a bit of the empire's sparse scene
Imperial palace guards in ornate decorative armor stood on either side of the port straight, with the blue-white port stones under their feet, and Rachel, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Empire, walked back and forth with an uneasy expression, his eyes occasionally sweeping the hull of the huge warship parked in the harbor with an occasional trace of distress
The waves are rolling, the giant ship is breaking through the sea, compared with the black mountains in the distance, the imposing imperial ship that appears in the distance, this lonely dragon-class battleship parked in the port of Kyoto, undulating in the rippling waves of the sea,
The original side deck of the battleship was decorated with colorful pictures by the Iranians, and many of them were peeled off under the impact of the sea, and the long barrel of the main gun of the Yami butterfly in the bow of the ship was wrapped in gorgeous golden silk.
The deck of the gun bay is a three-row gun muzzle like a hideous dragon scale, confined to death, the reason why this is so is because the slide rail of the Thor cannon inside has rusted, and the Thor cannon is mostly a decorative object, and the black iron pipes with no aesthetic sense are scattered in the gun bay, a smell of mildew and rust, where can you still see the dragon posture of the original shocking sea,
When Soladin I was here, the Istanbul military still maintained this dragon-class battleship, and occasionally the emperor would come to see the sailors' drills, but now that the emperor is gone, the situation is so chaotic, who cares about this dragon-class battleship that is more decorative than practical
In particular, the rebellion of Resa Bachi made many people blame, if it weren't for the gorgeous salvo of this Imperial Dragon-class battleship that made the emperor dizzy, he would not have thought of activating Resa Bachi, who had been suppressed for five years.
Without Resa Bachi's rebellion, naturally there would not have been an attack on the emperor's way back, and there would not have been such a difficult situation as it is now.
One qiē and one qiē are all caused by this Imperial Dragon-class battleship,
In this case, it would be nice not to peel off the skin and bones of this Imperial Dragon-class battleship that represents doom.
Hearing that the Imperial Navy, which had just defeated the Strant Navy and was already the overlord of the eastern part of the Inland Sea, had come to visit, and it was also led by Dustrunkai, the unrivaled Imperial Navy Minister, the upper echelons of Istanbul remembered that there was such an almost waste Imperial Dragon-class battleship,
If there is not even a battleship, it is not too much for the Falcon Empire to look down on, in order to counter the aggressive momentum of the Falcon Empire's navy, Istanbul Kyoto once again put out the Imperial Dragon-class battleship, painted a new lacquer color, and arranged it in colorful colors, so it was placed on the port, which can be regarded as a welcome ceremony.
I really don't know what those ministers think, Rachel is really aggrieved in his heart, as the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Empire, he knows more about the Falcon Empire than other ministers,
Dustrenkay, the first admiral of the Falcon Empire who conquered the boundless seas, the official to the Imperial Admiralty, a legend in the navy,
Almost a figure on a par with the five bigwigs who were also important ministers of the Imperial Army, they broke through the Gangfei Navy and swallowed the Alien Navy.
Since entering the Central European Barrow, he has been bloody and invincible, and he is a strong man who will spread out on both sides of the sea.
The ministers want to use this dragon-class battleship to combat its arrogance, what a ridiculous joke in the world!(To be continued)I580
