"Your Majesty, the Burrows family's prison is in Ninestar! I'm just afraid that there will be some trouble this time!" Duke Putao pushed open the door of the ship's cabin, his face pale "Ninestar?" The fat man supported his chin with one hand, his eyelids raised, and a trace of confusion flashed in his calm eyes, he asked people to get this Raphaelshire king, mainly to get the place of detention of the Burrows family, as the key isolation object of the Gangfei people, the Duke of Putao was very sad to be cut off from his biggest supporters, the Burrows family, the only thing he knew, was that the Burrows family was under house arrest, but the Duke of Putao provided a clue, the Raphael county king had been under the coercion of Gangfei, went to the prison to persuade the Burrows family to give up their support for themselves, but the result was rejected by the Burrows family, and Gangfei was very angry for this, and even cleaned up the unfavorable Raphaeljun King "Ninestar is a mountainous area on the northeastern border of the principality" Duke Putao saw the slightly confused look of His Majesty Falcon, and quickly explained" The Ninestar area is the gateway for Gangfei to enter the Putao Principality, in order to maintain strong pressure on Putao, the Gangfei people built the Ninestar Fortress in the Ninestar area, the Gangfei people are very concerned about the so-called prophetic ability of the Burrows family, the attitude of the Burrows family and the extraordinary status in Central Europe Barrow, undoubtedly make the Gangfei people throw rats, since they cannot be eradicated by force, they can only take house arrest,

However, there is also news that in order to win over the Burrows family, the Ministry of Military Affairs even mentioned that it would marry the Burrows family at the expense of a member of the royal family, but it seems that it was not implemented because of too much domestic resistance.

"Gang Fei is a member of the royal family...... " The fat man heard a black line rising in his head, Gang Fei was also very reluctant, and it was for a family. He did not hesitate to throw such a bait, and he had heard some of Turiet Colin say something about the Burrows' evasion

"Is there a way to find a specific location for house arrest?" the fat man asked very seriously, holding his chin in his hand, raising his head

"It will take a little time!" Duke Putao nodded affirmatively, "As long as you know the approximate area, I still have some people to rely on in the past few years, but in order to attract the attention of the people, I need to get the help of His Majesty's navy within a certain period of time! I implore His Majesty's navy to blockade the waters of Putao, and can fund me with a batch of weapons and supplies free of charge." Raphael has agreed to go to my side, he has a thousand men under his command, and he is very familiar with the nearby sea area, we can use the port of Huacheng to gather strength, which is enough to attract the attention of the Gangfei."

"There is no problem with the blockade of the sea area and weapons and supplies" The fat man tilted his head, and his fingers flicked on the armrest, "As for attracting the attention of the gang non-people, you can rest assured, they will be busy soon, I just hope you can find out the location of house arrest as much as possible!"

"What does your majesty mean?" the Duke of Putao looked up in astonishment

"It's just a little storm!, even if I give it to the inhuman," the fat man smiled as he sat down. It made the Duke of Putau feel inexplicable

The capital of the Principality of Putaus, Lisbonto

The cold wind whipped up the dead leaves on the ground and shredded them like scissors, making the streets look lonely and desolate at midnight. The cold wind blew through the deserted streets, blowing every qiē on the ground, and the dust fluttered in the sky, making the yellowed roadside lights even more gloomy.

In the dark night, there were one or two weak dog barks, which contrasted the silence of the night even more bleak. From time to time, out of the darkness came a group or two of patrolling Gangfei soldiers, their heavy military boots making a dull sound on the bluestone streets, shocking every resident of the city,

Through the gap in the window, you can see the chilling light on the weapons in the hands of the patrolmen, some street corners, wandering people light fires, it is now September, the Putao area near the coast area encounters the cold current to the south, bringing the breath of winter, a large area of freezing weather, Putao enters the real winter, because of the lack of the most basic agricultural inputs, unprotected crops freeze to death in a large area, countless Putao villages are trapped, the offshore area has also entered the freezing period, in a white ice sea, fishing boats can not go to sea at all,

In the port of Lisbonto, those who walk can see the inner side of the harbor near the port, there is a large faint black giant, frozen on the sea like a statue, everyone who passes by there will look at these black spots with a little sadness, that was once the pride of the Duchy of Putao, more than thirty heavy warships were dug near the port, the huge mast leaned against the hull, there are only some fragments of sails on it, and the side of each heavy warship is a black hole gap,

In the huge ice, the warships with cracked hulls are like wounded people leaning on each other, like a group of prisoners who have been executed, lying on the ice, let the cold wind invade, these warships are the sea power that the principality spent a hundred years and spent countless manpower and material resources to build, since the defeat of the war between Putao and Gangfei, the warships of the principality have never left the port of Lisbento,

At the time of the fall of Lisbento, the Putao soldiers on the battleship, relying on these warships to inflict great casualties on the invading Gangfei, they used the speculative planes on the battleship to cover the Putao army besieging the city, and more than 3,000 Gangfei soldiers were stoned to death, and a Gangfei general was seriously injured, and finally died, after the war, according to the Gangfei people's request, these huge heavy warships were concentrated, and were sunk in the port one by one in front of tens of thousands of Spento.

This is a sign of the submission of the Principality of Putao, and it is also a pain in the heart of all Putao people.

In the days of the Principality, the fishermen would have seen the proud heavy warships of the Principality, and would lead them to break the ice and escort a large number of fishing boats into the sea, but now, the fishermen can only choose to go inland early to make a living, and in the midst of the displacement, hoping to survive the difficult period from August to the warm March of the following year, the tide of displaced people began to expand from the coast to the inland in September, thousands of fishermen dragged their children and daughters to wander around, and many instinctively fled to the capital of the principality.

Despite the many measures taken by the local magistrates, many refugees still have access to the bustling streets of Lisbonto through various channels. Some news from the north was also circulating in Lisbonto, including the news that the Duke of Putao had been dastardly assassinated in the Falcon Empire in the north, which made Putao's already resentment against the Gangnon people even more intense, ten days ago. Lisbento declared martial law and imposed a curfew. The non-Congolese army stationed in Lisbonto stepped up patrols and duties at night and introduced stricter penalties.

For a while, the people living here deeply felt the tense atmosphere. However, in the stronghold of the Congolese army in Lisbonto, this qiē tension is not there. As the Governor of Lisbonto, appointed by His Majesty the Emperor Gangfei, General Boulder also felt the impact of the bad environment outside

"Father, I am firmly against the withdrawal of troops from Lisbonto! I don't know whose mention this is, I think this man should be thrown into prison immediately!" The excited and high-pitched voice came from a young man in the uniform of the Blue Empire, angry and angry. The young man's face was unusually red, his hand tightly grasped the saber at his waist, and his fingertips bent vigorously on the stripes of the chrysanthemum on the scabbard, as if he was about to draw his sword at any time to vent the anger in his heart.

In the warm spring-like study, the bonfire roars in the fireplace, and the flames that dance from time to time emit a bright light, dissipating the darkness and cold without a trace. The air is filled with a lingering light incense, a precious spice from the Eastern Monarch Empire. Each gram was worth as much as gold, and on the huge desk, all kinds of texts were orderly, and on the weapon rack were two staggered swords. The sharp tip of the sword exudes a terrifying chill, and the hilt is inlaid with gems of various colors, making it look less like a weapon than a decorative luxury. They have never actually been used.

The ruddy-faced Governor of Lisbonto, Polder, was unconcerned about the excitement of the young officer in front of him, and only glanced coldly at the young man. said lightly, "An order is an order, as a soldier, you should know the consequences of disobeying the orders of your superiors"

The young man snorted in his nostrils, "These guys from the Ministry of Military Affairs don't understand anything, Lisbonto was bought by the empire for the lives of seven thousand warriors, just a guess, and asked the local garrison to evacuate Lisbonto, hehe, I really don't know whether to say that they are cautious or cowardly" "This is a matter for the Ministry of Military Affairs, it has nothing to do with you and me!" Bol had to stand up, lowered his head and fiddled with the fire in the fireplace, feeling that the room was warm enough, so he leaned back in his chair tiredly and said slowly" Some things are not as simple as you see, according to the Ministry of Military Affairs, the Duke of Putao has arrived in Huacheng of the first island chain, and has issued a declaration asking the Gangfei army to leave Putao, which is nothing, but the trouble is that some people are secretly agitating, saying that the duke who has just been assassinated was assassinated because he was against us, and the assassin is also from Gangfei, and the people of Putao seem to be completely biased towards this duke, and there is information that a large number of materials and weapons have been put into the side of the Duke of Putao, and this Duke of Putao has gathered a 3,000-strong army of Restoration Army, and will soon officially land on Putao proper"Isn't it just 3,000 miscellaneous soldiers, but we have a regular army of 11,000 people" The young man said very dissatisfiedly, "The Falcon Navy from the north has blocked the open sea, and those fools in the navy can't get out at all! Even if there are more army, what can they do?" In the Principality of Putao, we have two imperial detachments stationed, but as soon as we heard that it was against the Falcon Navy, none of them were willing to leave the port to face the battle!" "Why is it the Falcon Empire again, doesn't it mean that a truce has been agreed?"

The young man asked, recently, there have been more and more rumors about these newly rising empires in the north, some people say that this empire has power all over the northwest region of Obaro, and some people say that the mainland of this empire is an overseas continent, but one thing is for sure, this Falcon Empire has just defeated the Gauls in the north, and there is a faint tendency to become the new overlord of the north, "Duke Putao was assassinated in the Falcon Empire, and the upper echelons of the Falcon Empire were furious, and the meaning of the agreement was that there was no real truce!" The corners of Polde's mouth pursed his lips with disdain, "Although the two countries have ceased war on the surface, it is only the army side, the other party is violent, and the other party is fierce this time under the banner of punishing the real murderer, and it is an extremely powerful navy that has been dispatched, and our navy is still fighting in the south, and the rest of these, not to mention blocking, even have the courage to go out to fight." What about the Ministry of Military Affairs?"

"Navy! Why is the Empire's Navy like this?" the young man had heard for the first time, and in his mind, the Empire's armies were all brave and invincible

"In the northern hub of Casey, the opponent's fleet killed tens of thousands of us in one fell swoop, and the imperial naval forces completely abandoned the north, and the navy has been deliberately avoiding the war since that battle, and this time I also heard that the empire was defeated on the northern border, and the famous general of the empire, Lamia, was martyred. The 150,000-strong Lamia Legion was completely annihilated! This qiē was all done by this Falcon Empire!" "General Lamia has been martyred......!"

The young man looked sluggish, he was an admirer of the famous general Ramia, when he just occupied Putao, Ramia advocated forcible annexation, so that although there are certain sequelae, as long as there is enough suppression, as long as he waits for thirty years, Putao will become a part of the empire. "That's why I said that this is a matter for the Imperial Ministry of Military Affairs! Although I don't agree with the approach of the Ministry of Military Affairs, I have to admit that the Ministry of Military Affairs is not wrong in its judgment of the form."

Bol had to look up. He glanced out the window with a solemn expression, as a senior officer stationed in Gangfei, his gaze was obviously much farther than that of the young man, and he said in a heavy tone, "In this battle." If you really want to do something, you should take care of your security team first. I've heard that your security squad killed more than a dozen Putao people yesterday when they went out to exterminate the resisters in the eastern part of the city, and these so-called resisters just said a few words slandering the empire on the side of the road, you are really reckless, do you think this fire burns too slowly, so you want to add another piece of fire?"

"The Putao people who rebelled against the empire should die" The young officer was the eldest son of the sheriff Boulder, he straightened up and said very unconvinced, "I have always believed that General Ramia's mention was correct at the beginning, and we should adopt a policy of iron-blooded annexation of Putao, and resolutely execute all opponents, and see who of these Putao people dares to jump out, it is like now, six years, the empire's policy towards Putao has always been so weak, when will we be the head of such procrastination......"

Pol's face changed slightly, and he slapped the table hard, "If the blind killing can be solved, then what else do we need our local governor to do!"

"That's why I think I should join the main army of the Empire, instead of messing around in the position of a small regional governor like you!" The young man smiled coldly, closed his mouth, but refused to leave, just stood there straight,

Pol's face turned blue with anger, stretched out his hand to point at him, gasped for a while, and said anxiously and angrily, "In your eyes, what are the consequences of annexing Putao!"

"Nature is the foundation of the empire, let us go out from this small peninsula in the footsteps of the present! Just like the original Holy Empire, let the territory of the empire extend all the way to Constantin," said the young man with his head held high and a proud expression.

"Stupid!" Pol was almost stunned, stretched out his hand, and shouted angrily, "What do you know? Do you think the empire doesn't want to swallow the Putao in one gulp? But do you know the consequences of swallowing it in one bite? Behind the Duchy of Putao is the Sea of Stransster, although the army of this country is not very good, but its geographical location is remote, the navy is extremely strong, and it is known as the strongest in Central Europe and Barro, not to mention the complicated relationship of the Burrows family, and more than a dozen principalities in Central Europe and Baro have marriage relations"

"In the past few years, the empire has been fighting in the south and the north, and it has expanded at any cost, but what is the reason for the few results?" "Isn't it the result of the great ambition of the emperor, the Ministry of Military Affairs knows that the army is tired, and can only support itself, if the empire really forcibly swallows the Putao, the countries of the Obaro will inevitably unite to deal with Gangfei, and then there is the Lantersa Sea State before and after, relying on the current situation and military strength of the empire, it is already barely possible to resist the pressure from the north, plus the pressure of the Central European Barrow countries......!" Bolder's voice stopped, but the meaning was obvious

"But what is the difference between giving up now and being defeated!"

The young officer did not flinch in the face of his father's scolding, but stepped forward and said in a resolute and decisive voice, "Am I wrong?

"Bumper" Just as the two were arguing, there was a knock at the door

"What's the matter?" Bolder looked up unexpectedly, who would come in at this time? As a result, it was his adjutant who walked in at the door, his face looked ugly, and he said in a hurry, "Your Excellency, something is wrong, a mob suddenly appeared in the eastern district and attacked the security team, as well as the southern and western districts, and the whole city is in chaos!" Bolder's face changed dramatically, and he hurried to the window, where he saw several puffs of black smoke rising into the sky, flames burning on the houses of the East End, lighting up the sky, and the streets were filled with soldiers rushing towards the rioted area

"Father, I'm going to the riot area!" the young officer turned to walk towards the gate with an excited expression, (to be continued......
