Chapter 221 [The Curtain Rises]


The Lord Hughes stood up and smiled slightly: "Then what about your plan, Lord Salvador." ” "You're the key to my plan."

El Salvador said solemnly: "Although our collective strength has an absolute advantage, we also have our biggest weakness: we are not a whole, we are a group, we have too many members, I am not sure whether all our members, have a strong will, you know, some guys are easy to waver, there are others who are unambitious, just want to stick to the rules, and some just want to maintain the status quo."

But now, it's time to make a choice, no status quo, no balance, no future, we are facing a war, I have to make sure that all the members of our collective have made the same move, now that the Emperor has taken a risk, he has made the craziest moves, we have to show our toughness and determination, if we hesitate, or rather, cowardice, then all the members within us, maybe they will be shaken After all, you know, several governors of the Northeast, They have never had any ambitions, and those guys don't have the courage to overthrow this empire at all, they just want to be honest and be a rich man.

We have to break the illusions of these guys" "I don't need you to tell me this, I'm not a fool."

Hughes shook his head: "I need to hear something more in my favor." ” He looked into Salvador's eyes, the kindness in his eyes faded little by little, and the edge gradually revealed: "Osgilia to mine, it does sound good, but do you think that's enough, don't be too naïve, Salvador."

Osgilia is very close to me, right in the palm of my hand, in the future, when we overthrow this empire, whether you promise it or not, whether others agree or not, this place is mine because it is too close to my territory, and no one else can get this place except me, that is, no matter what, this place will be mine in the future" There was mockery in his tone: "You can't buy me with what belongs to me, it's ridiculous." ” Salvador paused, he exhaled and looked into Hughes's eyes: "What do you want" Hughes smiled, his eyes slightly crooked as he laughed, and then he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve with a list of items on it, and slowly pushed it to the other side of the table.

Salvatore glanced at it and took a breath: "You actually made a list" "Of course."

Hughes smiled: "Otherwise, what do you think I was doing when I had afternoon tea just now" Salvatore snorted heavily, picked up the piece of paper and looked at it, the ink on it was all new, especially the last line, which was obviously just written.

Salvador hurriedly looked at it, and his face was extremely gloomy: "The price you ask for is too high, you know, you do these things for yourself." ” "But the gun shot the first bird."

Hughes smiled lazily: "I am the first to come forward, I will be attacked by the full force of the royalist army and, you are all too far away, I will bear the brunt of their strongest attack."

So, I think it's reasonable to ask for some compensation. ” "Military food and weapons, hum, your Armenia produces the best iron ore, do you still need us to provide weapons" Salvador frowned dissatisfied.

"Oh, you don't have a weapon, but I need a warhorse."

Hughes's attitude hardened: "Ten thousand high-quality war horses, pay attention, I'm talking about war horses, if I see a horse or a mule, then I don't promise to do anything irrational in a fit of rage." ” "Ten thousand, that's not a small number.

Do you want to equip a cavalry corps" Salvatore sighed: "I can only promise that I will try to convince other members and allies to agree to your terms. ” "Very well, so can we celebrate the happy cooperation first."

Hughes smiled.

Salvatore snorted and looked at the last line of newly added text at the end: "Daphany and Adeline, you have both girls, you have a lot of appetite, my old friend" "Of course, I'm very happy to hear you're here.

And I was overjoyed to hear that you had brought these two precious gifts.

So, I made some small additions to this list during afternoon tea. ” "Daphany" Salvatore sneered: "Her title of Crown Princess is just a joke for us.

But she's a member of the Minas family, and no matter what, having a hostage of the Minas family in her hands is always a big bargaining chip.

And Adeline, what are you thinking about the Odin?"

"Don't forget, our princess, her princess title, not only Byzantium, I heard that in the Odin Empire, the powerful Odin God Emperor, but he has always cared about his little niece."

"Well, I promised you, anyway, even if I objected, you wouldn't allow me to take them."

Salvatore shook his head, but finally stared at Hughes: "I want to remind you, it's kind advice."

It's okay to cooperate with the Odin as a last resort, but if you want to make friends with the Odin, then you will definitely regret it later" "I will take your advice to heart."

Hughes lifted his eyelids.

Salvador was relieved, and he put away the list: "I don't have time to stay here, I have to leave immediately and there are many things waiting for me to do." ” "I can guarantee that my army will be ready to move forward early tomorrow morning and make a gesture of intimidation against Osgilia."

Hughes immediately made some practical promises: "However, I will not send people to die for ten days in vain, I need to respond within ten days, you and other allies will raise troops, otherwise you know what that means." ” Salvatore glanced at Hughes, got up and strode to the door, and when he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, turned his head and glanced at Hughes: "Change it." ” "What" "The Armenian district you just mentioned, I think the Kingdom of Armenia, maybe a better name, Your Majesty King Hughes" Hughes smiled, and he also looked at Salvador with the same complicated eyes: "I think it's a good idea Well, in the same way, I think the Kingdom of Rodria is also a good name, His Majesty the King of El Salvador" The training ground was in full swing.

In the distance, the young men galloped quickly on their horses, and small teams kept making various tactical formations.

Nearby, some of the recruits were doing the most basic assassination training, which was the most basic cavalry combat skills, and the assassination of charging on horses was very different from that of infantry.

Lian Yue's training has made these recruits who have just been added to the 13th Corps already look like cavalry.

After the last battle, the 13th Corps, which suffered heavy losses, was reorganized again, and anyway, for one of the troops with the largest damage rate in the history of the emperor, this was already commonplace.

Most of the soldiers drawn from other units are veterans, and replenishing in this way can minimize the loss of combat effectiveness, for these newcomers, they are not rookies, and the only thing they need is to dissolve into the collective of the 13th Corps.

But the biggest trouble is that many of the new recruits are not cavalry, although some are also cavalry when they are in other units, but by the standards of the 13th Corps, they are far from qualified.

Ruhl's strategy was to draw a part of the original 13th Corps' own "mounted infantry" to supplement the real cavalry force, and foreign recruits to supplement the original "mounted infantry" banner regiment.

At this moment, the chubby Ruhl was standing next to the training ground, squinting at the group of soldiers who were performing on the training ground, and these soldiers were making standard movements that imitated immediate assassination under the guidance of the instructor.

Ruhl's eyes were fixed on a figure standing to the left of the first row.

That slender figure was none other than the special observer sent from Yanjing: His Royal Highness Garcia, the Crown Prince of the Empire.

I don't know what madness this highness had, and on the first day of going down to the army, he made a strange request: he asked to go down to the most basic troops, eat and live with the soldiers, train together, and truly experience the life of a soldier.

At first, Ruhl thought that this highness was just a whim, but after these days, he found that this highness was serious The legendary crown prince, who pays the most attention to appearance and etiquette, has come to the front-line troops, crawling and rolling with the soldiers, making mud and dirt on the training ground every day, living in the most rudimentary tents, eating with the soldiers in a pot and spooning, and even not bathing for several days, and squeezing in the tent with other soldiers in a stinky sweat.

At this moment, looking at the young man with a horse gun on the training ground, Ruhl sighed in his heart: Who dares to say that this highness is an incompetent little white face, it is simply blind In the whole army, there are no more than ten people who know this highness, and the other officers and soldiers at the bottom don't know this new comrade-in-arms around them, anyway, there are many recruits who have been added recently.

Let the adjutant beside him invite the crown prince who was in training, and then in the shocked eyes of all the soldiers, Ruhl took off his cloak and put it on the crown prince, and solemnly saluted him.

There was a stirring in the queue.

The crown prince sighed, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and glanced at Ruhl: "It seems that my soldier's career is over" "Yes, it's over early."

Ruhl smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, from now on, you can't continue to experience the life of a soldier at the bottom of the front-line troops."

We need you to be in a more important position."

Garcia nodded, he didn't say anything immediately, but first washed his face with the water from the adjutant from the bystander, wiped the water off his face, and then sighed: "Something happened to Yanjing" "Yes."

Ruhr took out an urgent military order that had just come from Yanjing: "Your Highness, the war is coming" There was no trace of surprise on Garcia's face, he just nodded, took the order and glanced at it, and then sighed: "It seems that the father really did it."

The murderer of my teacher has not been found?"

Ruhl rolled his eyes: "You have also seen the content of the military newspaper, I don't know more than you. ” The fat man slandered in his heart: What kind of drama are you doing, what kind of joke will that old boy in Cavishil really die The fat man thought so in his heart, but on the surface, he was meticulous: "We must drive as quickly as possible, and then, rush to Yanjing, His Majesty King Qin has issued an assembly order, and all the troops loyal to the royal family must move closer to Yanjing and form a crusade against the rebellious coalition of national movements, and they will fight here." ” Speaking of this, the fat man paused for a moment and continued to say with a straight face: "This order, Your Majesty is name, and it is written very clearly, His Highness Garcia."

Your Majesty explained that in the event of any unusual situation in the war, that is, if any misfortune arises and His Majesty himself must be suddenly unlucky, then you will have the right to be crowned Emperor on the spot and continue to lead the empire to the final victory. ” "Towards the final victory."

Garcia pursed his lips, his smile complicated.

The final victory, if this kind of thing really exists, let's talk about Yanjing, the south of the city dock area.

This is the station of the Gallensian Chamber of Commerce in Yanjing, and near the wharf is an important business district in Yanjing, where all the large chambers of commerce on the mainland have their own bases and warehouses.

At this moment, the person in charge of the Gallens Chamber of Commerce in Yanjing, Gu Luo, who was quite similar in figure to General Ruhr, was worried about something with a sad face.

Yanjing has been completely blocked, the docks are closed, and the city gates are closed.

Coupled with the fact that El Salvador in the red zone broke through the siege the day before yesterday and broke the city gate and fled westward, the martial law level in the city has been sharply increased a lot.

It is said that the Red Zone has been slaughtered to the fullest, and that none of the last captives have been spared, and that all of them have been ordered to be executed by the order of His Majesty in a rage, and even the trial process has been spared.

Because of the unexpected escape of the greatest enemy chieftain, Salvador, General Spann of the City Guard suffered the wrath of His Majesty, and General Spann was stripped of his title and removed from his post on the spot, although His Majesty allowed him to remain in the City Guard as an adjutant general.

The new commander of the city guard, Lord Adric, was temporarily given to the deputy minister of military affairs, the former general of the 13th Corps, Adric.

With Adric's prestige in the army, he was enough to take on this important task.

But the problem is that General Adric himself is not in Yanjing now, he is indeed patrolling the northeast of the empire and rectifying local military affairs.

For Gu Luo, his biggest problem is that because of the complete blockade of Yanjing, and it is so complete, it has become extremely difficult for him to transmit information to the outside world.

As a head of intelligence, he was well aware that the Byzantine Empire was facing a great upheaval that would have a profound impact on the kingdom of Landis He had to do something, he had to do something And just today, an unexpected guest came to visit.

Sitting in front of Gu Luo was a girl who looked to be no more than twenty years old, dressed in a white robe, with a little freckles on her face, and her appearance was a little delicate, but she was only delicate, not a beauty.

God knows how this delicate little girl, who looks weak and bookish, ran through the city alone to the south of the city to meet her in the current chaotic Yanjing.

The only reason Guro saw this girl was that the girl claimed to be "I am a disciple of Master Kavihir" Anything in Cavehill that is associated with the name becomes complicated.

So Gu Luo met this girl who looked very quiet for the first time.

"You don't need to know what my name is, you just need to know that I'm a disciple of Master Cavishir."

The girl sat in front of Gu Luo: "I know that your name is Gu Luo, a native of Landis, thirty-six years old, a first-class military attache under the Information Inspection Agency of the Kingdom of Landis, and according to the information I have, you are the fifth candidate for the throne of Minister of General Affairs and Communications of the Information Inspection Office of the Kingdom of Landis in the next twenty years." ” Hearing these words, Gu Luo's face suddenly changed.

"You don't have to worry, these materials have been placed on my teacher's desk long before you came to Yanjing yourself."

The girl's understated tone seemed to describe a simple fact.

"Lord Kavehir, what does he have to ask me" Guro swallowed for a moment, and then he asked a question that everyone was concerned about: "Lord Kavehir, is he really alive?"

The girl's brows furrowed, and her expression was very calm: "This problem, to be honest, is also bothered."

All I can say is that I don't want the teacher to be really dead and I'll be honest with you, the last time I saw the teacher was a few hours before that assassination.

So I can't tell you if the teacher is really dead, although there are still illusions in my heart so, Mr.

Guro, if you want to arrest me and kill me, you can do it. ” "Don't be kidding, I'm sure someone like Lord Cavishir won't die that easily."

Okay, now tell me, you look for me, what do you need me to do?"

"It's very simple, our empire is experiencing a major change, in the midst of this change, may I ask, what position will the Kingdom of Landis stand on."
