Vol 3 Chapter 49: How do the guys spend the winter there? (Four k words)

> For Ashcandi, an unexpected accident did not disrupt her plan.
Hegel’s invasion of West Sellin was already her planned thing. Even if Murphy didn’t show up, things would develop as they do now — Hegel’s occupation of Lampard’s territory immediately became a complete puppet regime, and The Buttigian royal family in the distance was unaware of this.
In the past, Ashcandi sent all the main troops to the fringe cities, while weakening the strength of the other side, but also to save his own military strength. The two victories gave the illusion that the royal family of Buttigia was "difficult to capture" , And greatly reduced the strength of the nobles who originally had a small word for the lord, and finally harvested the elite long bow troops and a group of infantry cavalry under Hegel-more importantly, the war was just over. The first fine iron arrows of Ding Mining and processing have been manufactured and shipped here.
According to the original plan, Ashkandi will start to attack the surrounding territories, but she changed her plan after seeing the information Ilindal received from the creed—
The sacred Gabriel empire suddenly assembled troops, and had reached the border of Fortin, seeing the posture to prepare to fight against Bali with Fortin.
Ashcandi's eyes narrowed, and after the news spread to Balice, he even let the Balice lord and the royal family who planned to attack Foding next year collectively be ignorant-did the pope take the wrong medicine?
The cost of fighting a war is definitely not as simple as pulling out the army to do one. Where does the military cost come from? Where did the soldiers enlist? Where do the weapons come from? Where does the grain go?
All the consumption will eventually be evenly distributed to the heads of the imperial civilians. If a battle does not gain enough benefits, the result will be a major step back in the national economy and military strength. If the sacred Gabriel attacks Byzantium, there may be some benefits. It is arguable, but the expedition went to Fording and joined forces to pressure Balice immediately. This kind of behavior was said to help Fording's army become a cannon fodder.
Looking at the annotations on the map, Ashcandi on the open-air tower has always maintained a state of contemplation-no matter what means is used to pave the way for her own purposes, this is her strategic style, but the royal family of Buttigia still thinks Hegel He controlled most of East Balice, but who could think of the real masters of the vast territory at this moment was wondering how to let the troops of Fording and Gabriel rush directly to West Balice?
Under her calm appearance, she had a crazy heart.
Ashcandi settled down. After a few days of energy consumption, she seemed a little sleepy. She looked away. She standing on the tower easily saw the lonely figure on the hillside in the distance.
...
Murphy gently placed a bunch of flowers on Jeanna's tombstone and immediately cleaned the surrounding weeds.
In the sunshine, here is full of light.
Sufferas' scepter was held in his hand, and he tapped the ground like a wooden stick he used normally. When he turned away, he couldn't help thinking about a question-how can he achieve true peace of mind?
Time takes away the things around her, so that Na will never come back, Sphinx is nowhere to be traced, the same is true for Hydera, and then go back...Hidink, Covin, Boozer, these roommates Are you on the battlefield?
Where is Jeanne now? Is the old man Aquinas still in the hut?
Is Chris still in school?
What is Duke Azshara busy with?
What about father? What about Prince Hades?
More than a year after leaving Hook County, Murphy saw the beauty of the world, and after leaving Byzantium, Murphy saw the cruelty of the world, from heir to night watchman, until now he faced the man who had been on the Tarot card. "Fool", the goal of life seems to quietly change its taste.
He turned his head and looked back at the iconic tower that was a thousand kilometers apart-Why did Ashkendi Black Eye fight against Prince William at all costs? Her ambitions are much greater than what Murphys expected of the night watchman, but at present, Murphys has no intention of forcibly preventing it, because the coincidence of misfortune and misfortune just happens to build up a relatively solid institutional framework.
It is not a bad thing to disengage yourself from the edge of the power center-Murphy found that he no longer has to think about too many problems, because everyone has to worry about it, and now, he needs to face another war.
How to deal with the joint attack of Gabriel and Fording?
Murphy, who walked back to West Sellin step by step, narrowed his eyes. Not far away, a team of red knights was crossing the street to Earl’s Court. The sound of horseshoes and the exclamation of pedestrians evading are all explaining the team’s aggressive.
Cross the scepter, the roar of the lion, this emblem... represents the emperor of the royal family of Buttigia finally appeared.
"What kind of mission will there be?"
Sibalice, the imperial capital of Buttigia.
The sawing of the Balice Empire continues. In the long run, the means of letting the lords fight against each other and the royal family watching and not participating is not superfluous for the entire country. Its only and most important point is the intensification of contradictions within the empire. Let civilians, nobles and lords have no time to take care of other things.
Especially to take care of the monarch who guarded Sibalice and the royal family behind him.
The imperial belief conflict is no longer as obvious as it was a few decades ago. Several large-scale crackdowns have caused irreparable trauma. Today, Balice has learned to pursue the basic concept of "seeking common ground while reserving differences" within a certain range.
Credit?
Perhaps the civilians living in Buttigia and Sibalice would think that this was the wise guidance of His Majesty the Great Emperor.
However, in fact, the nobles and nobles who sat down by the entire emperor unanimously gave this "credit" to the guy who always stood not far from the emperor, Heto Valaine.
Waiter?
As a recent politician who walked with the emperor, Heto's identity has always made Buttigia's upper class nobles whisper.
Because his title is just a baron.
This is the lowest knight among the people next to the emperor, and his knight is not hereditary, but it was granted by the king himself-that is to say, this old man over sixty years old was once a man civilian.
It took several generations of hard work to cultivate an excellent nobleman, and Heto was awarded a baron at the age of 45. His own civilian temperament is still criticized by the upper class nobility. He never participated in the reception and was indulged by the nobles There is no interest in hunting, female sex, wealth, collectibles, etc., and there is no contamination at all.
There were once no less than ten great nobles who invited him to a large reception, but they were rejected at all times. Later, he got a nickname "Shadow Herto" because he seemed to be accompanied by the supreme monarch of Balische every time. Appeared, it is difficult to find its trace on other occasions.
The emperor Hasselblad Mokleti, in the eyes of nobles and ministers, does not seem to be a wise monarch.
He is always a faceless look, unsmiling, and most of the time is silent, and it seems that an emperor should have said it, all said by the "shadow" beside him, every time the nobility attended the parliament His Majesty Hasselblad always sat there, generally speaking no more than three sentences from beginning to end, but even so, the current national strength of Balice is steadily increasing.
The king’s most notable achievement was that when the lords’ attention was focused on infighting, Sibalice took the lead in the maritime career as a coastal territory-just half a year ago , The sailing fleet has returned and brought exciting news: the resources of the new continent have been opened up for Barrich!
However, this exciting news was exclusively blocked by the royal family. After the royal navy returned to the sea, all personnel were individually blocked from contacting family or friends, and once again embarked on the expedition.
The news announced to the outside world was that the fleet had never found anything before sailing.
The Mist Bomb is just a Mist Bomb. The box of gold transported from the ship after the voyage fleet returns will never be concealed for too long, but the lords who are tired of the civil war do not seem to care what the royal fleet can bring to the country.
They have not even realized how much resources there are in the "new continent".
At this moment, in the core palace area of ​​the Royal City of Buttigia, as in the past, the owner of this country walked out of the dormitory in a red robe-His Majesty Hasselblad, 52, has a pair of eagle-like brown doubles Hitomi, gray hair was traced by the heavy crown, the figure was not tall, the magic steel dagger at the waist proved another horrible identity of the round table knight.
This majesty who has always been serious and unusual in front of the nobles has been a member of the "Round Table Knight Council" on the mainland from the day he took the throne. The powerful strength gave him the same powerful voice. Before he inherited the throne, The nine brothers and sisters are the only ones who have been fighting on the border of Balice for more than 14 years. During the royal fight, he reached the top with unshakable brilliance and merit. After being crowned king, he did not treat his siblings. Raising the butcher's knife is to allow the children of these royals to start a political marriage to the Issenger in the east and the Akra Empire, which was across the sea and established an alliance 13 years ago, although it seems that the four married recently The five princesses only brought some dowry dowries, but for an empire with a long-term plan, this is the first step towards its prosperity.
The marble promenade has countless green plants hanging down. After His Majesty walked out of the palace, he stood in the shadow of the vines for a long time. The late autumn sunlight was blocked by the still green leaves, and his face was slightly old. His majesty raised his hand. The fingers of the king’s male teacher’s emblem ring hadn’t touched the leaves, and a greeting he couldn’t be more familiar with came a short distance away.
"Your Majesty, there seems to be something wrong with Hegel."
Heto, who exists as a "shadow", always talks about things. There is no restraint in the face of His Majesty Hasselblad, and his tone is always serious and rigid, and there is no half nonsense.
"The time it took to take Sicillin was too short, you and I understand what it means," His Majesty's eyes are not only sharp, but they are a bit stiff, and he doesn't seem to have much spiritual touch, he is in the face Heto was not as unpleasant as he was rumored-in fact, almost no one knew that the policy of making the big country divided into two parts, and at the same time letting the lord's power weaken in the change, was almost planned by him, not The upper nobles of Buttigia guessed that it was Heto, and now Hegel was propped up by him and swallowed most of the scattered territories, which was also planned by His Majesty, "The loss of the Glass family is more than I use There is no way to make up for the power, and since he has decided, I will not block it."
"The man behind him is not simple."
Herto and the emperor are two meters away, and there is no third person within 30 meters of the surroundings, so there is no excuse for the conversation.
"An old monster from history? I just learned that Varian of the Creed has already begun to take action. Since he has torn his face, he should not worry about too much."
The intelligence organization owned by His Majesty Hasselblad is not similar to the
Eagle Eye
led by the Duke of Byzantine Azshara, but it is a genuine part of the
creed
, which is what Varian called the
rotten
creed, which is covered with moldy spots It refers to this part of the creed members who work for the royal family because of their interests.
The members of the ancient "creed" have been known as "never violate their own creed" from the moment they became famous on the mainland. All of them are called dead, but today it seems that they are no better than those bounty hunters and mercenaries who use money to kill people. Where to go, for the leader Varian, this is an indelible shame.
As for why the members of the Creed would betray and work for the royal family of Balice, it seems that the reason is not simply a matter of interest, otherwise Varian will not find clues from Hegel-to tell the truth with his energy, say Deciding to let the mutiny members disappear today, they will never see the sun of tomorrow, but when the matter of the scepter is involved, everything becomes complicated and abnormal.
"At present, the intelligence system can last for a while, but it really annoys Consanas, I am afraid the price is not small."
"Our profits have exceeded the maximum price we can pay, so we should continue to do."
Very decisively, His Majesty Hasselblad said: "Gabrielle and Fording are a problem that cannot be ignored. If they are willing to fight in the winter, we will treat ourselves preferentially, but first send the envoy to delay the time and give the group of lords. Let’s do some work."
"Fleet thing?"
"You decide for yourself and hope that they will return on time without being swallowed by the anger of the sea."
In a few words, the next strategic tone of the Balice Empire seems to have been set. The monarch who will hold his hand firmly in his hands has no terrifying atmosphere, except for the identity and power that the short sword brings, UU reads the book www. uukanshu.com looks like an old man who is a little late.
As a shadow, Heto bent over to salute, turned around and walked away, and passing by was a 13-year-old girl led by a housekeeper.
Princess Brunei raised her head curiously and watched the expressionless Heto walk past her. Although the old man saluted, there was no more than half a word. She shook off the housekeeper and jumped a few steps to her father— — In front of His Majesty Hasselblad—quietly asked:
Father, why did that old grandpa always come to you?

"Some things to discuss, but is my baby girl going to watch safari today?"
"You said that the meat of the prey is always the fattest in autumn."
"Of course, for the coming of severe winter, animals always have to eat more food, otherwise they will die of icy cold and food shortage even if they will not die from safari."
His Majesty Hasseln said to his beloved daughter with a smile. The face that was always cold and indifferent to his subjects was full of warmth and pampering, but his eyes immediately looked east.
