: 2559 Empire Storm (34)

　
The news that Cornelia Port was conquered by Eero rebels is like a storm blowing across the Yellow Sand Desert that swept across the entire kingdom of Aden, large and small oasis, countless merchants gathered on these oasis, panic all at once . Cornelia Port is the estuary of the Kingdom of Aden in the Obaro region. It is the east exit of the business line that traverses the entire Kingdom of Aden. Because the Eeroes sent troops, the Cornelia region has become a war zone. The Shangluo was paralyzed for a month, and the caravans were all congested at once. It was near the end of the year. It was the most prosperous time for the maritime trade in the Obaro Inner Sea area. It almost attracted 60% of the Chamber of Commerce in Aden. Here,
　　
Goods like mountains accumulated in the six oasis areas near the east, and the idea of ​​making a fortune was originally depreciated under the delay of such battles. The frontline battles are fierce. Ahead, the final result is still the fall of Cornelia Port, which has a fatal impact on the Kingdom of Aden. The Kingdom of Aden was originally an oasis kingdom. A large area of ​​deserted land could not survive, but because of this, both ends of the southern continent were isolated The Adenian ancestors are very few desert peoples who can cross this vast expanse of desert, and transport goods from both sides of the continent. It took hundreds of years to earn amazing wealth, and Alon gold found in the unnamed desert , And it has been enthusiastically sought after by the southern countries. The Adenites finally established a country based on this, and gradually formed the territory of the current Aden Kingdom.
　　
　　 An oasis in the desert. In this golden yellow sand, a huge oasis is like a large green blanket occupying a range of more than a hundred miles. The air trembling slightly, a team of Aden camel cavalry stopped horseshoes in the sand dunes in front of this oasis.
　　
　　 "Stop"
　　
A noble of Aden came out of the queue, raised his hands high, his eyes looked like a goshawk overlooking, in the middle of the white gauze was a blue gemstone that flashed like a thumb, the gemstone was pure like a water hole, and the edge of the robe on his body It was a shimmering gold, blown by the wind, exposing the golden armor under the robe, and looking around, the lake between the oasis shone in the sun, under the yellow sand oasis, the sky was clouded, the whole world, all At this moment, it was a little transparent. In front is the Rugus Great Oasis of the Kingdom of Aden. The Kingdom of Aden is close to the nearest large oasis on the east coast. It is a hundred miles away. The vegetation here is more lush than other oasis, because it is far from the coastline. Three hundred miles,
　　
This is also a rare oasis in the Kingdom of Aden where rain can be seen. The vegetation around the oasis is intermittent, not lush, and does not grow in pieces. The green spots in the sand are the most lush near the lake, and the place with the most tents, even There is also a fixed city wall outside the oasis. The low shrubs outside the oasis city wall are scattered and scattered. The large and small hills formed by the yellow sand are like waves. The Adensa beast army flag inside the city wall, with claws and teeth. Sand beasts, even more terrible when blown by the wind,
　　
"Under the palace, Cornelia Port has fallen. Does it make sense for us to go to the Falcon Empire now?" A servant who followed behind the noble of Aden, his gaze withdrew from the large oasis in the distance, carefully in the ear of the noble Bian said
　　
"Although it is difficult, it is not completely impossible. The Port of Cornelia fell into the hands of the Eeros, but the Eeros only dare to call them the rebels, that is, in terms of belonging, Cornelia Ya is still our Kingdom of Aden," said the nobleman of Aden wearing a jeweled scarf and gritted his teeth. "If it were not for the Eeros to fight unproclaimed, and the Kingdom lost its main force in the battle between North and South, the Kingdom did not need to do so. , Since Cornelia can’t help it anymore, just throw it away, and take it out whoever has the ability, anyway, it will not make the Eero people cheap, at least it can hold down the Ero people’s power and temporarily make them unable to help me. Aden’s domestic advancement is called
His Royal Highness
is the Prince of the Kingdom of Aden, Sikonnis, who is the third son of the current King of Aden, Moham IV, so he knows more about the current situation.
　　
I saw that his eyes fell deeply on the large oasis in the distance, and his voice stopped for a moment, saying, "Now the entire high level of the kingdom, with the failure of the Cornelia war, has decided to temporarily abandon the east coast of the kingdom, the battle between north and south, lost After more than one hundred thousand elites, now because of Cornelia, seven or eighty thousand people have been lost. The entire Aden Kingdom’s military strength is about half a million, where it can withstand the oil consumption of the Eero people and give up Cornelia although It seems that the east estuary of the Kingdom’s business road has been abandoned, which has a great impact on the entire Kingdom’s business, but now the entire inland area is within the scope of the Falcon Empire Navy. The Empire’s commercial network covers the Inland Sea. In the face of the invasion of the Empire’s merchant forces, even the branch Neliya’s role in Aden’s hands is also very limited, but it is better to throw this hot potato into the Eero people, it is better to provoke the war between the Falcon Empire and the Eero Empire.

　　
　　 "If the Falcon Empire finally occupied Cornelia, wouldn't it be more dangerous than the Eros?"
　　
Hearing his master's words, the attendant was stunned for a moment. He only knew that his master was representing the Kingdom of Aden to the Falcon Empire to talk about Cornelia, hoping to use the power of the Falcon Empire to stabilize Cornelia's collapsed situation, but he did not expect that the kingdom's top management had already decided to give up Cornelia. Although the Eros were terrible, the Falcon Empire was not bad.
　　
　　 "Danger? Not necessarily!"
　　
　　 Prince Connie smiled faintly, "Although the Falcon Empire is strong, it is after all the northern forces of Obaro. Even if it finally occupies Cornelia, it will not be too interested in the large desert Aden Kingdom."
　　
"But the Eero people are different. Eero's peeping at Aden is no longer a day or two. With more than a hundred years of war and peace, the Eero people have long figured out the distribution of the oasis in the Aden kingdom. The desert is a natural barrier. Almost has no power to influence the advancement of the Eero army. From this attack on Cornelia, the Eero army's accurate and effective cut-in and the split strangulation of our Aden army have shown that the Eero army understands my Aden. To a terrible degree, the Eero people have the heart to destroy my Aden!"
　　
"And the Falcon Empire occupies Cornelia, at most it is to become a commercial port, Cornelia's role in the estuary of the east still exists, and my merchants in the Kingdom of Aden can still be unimpeded. That's another matter. They will use Cornelia as a supporting point to continue to eat away the wealth of our Aden merchants, and even use this to weaken the power of my Aden kingdom!"
　　
　　 "His Royal Highness, the Oasis is here"
　　
A forward scout camel cavalry pointed his finger forward. Sure enough, from the side of the Great Oasis, a team of camel cavalry flying Aden by the flag ran towards this side. These camel cavalry were different from those of West Connis. They wore pointed helmets on their heads. , A piece of iron connected to protect the cheek, the armor is a short-sleeved half-plate armor, the front of the long lance held by the camel cavalry has a series of pompoms, the camel runs, and the pompon swings like a face The flag of the army, the number of camel cavalry is between fifty and sixty. The Cornelia area is already a battlefield. The large oasis is only three hundred miles away from Cornelia. It is already the edge of the battlefield. What appears here is Border Guards of the Kingdom of Aden in the Great Oasis
　　
"Response isn't too slow." Connie nodded. Fortunately, this is already the edge of the war zone. I have watched the scenery for so long here. The big oasis has not responded at all, so I acted too laxly. You know, Eero Once the army approaches inland, the first is to attack the Great Oasis. Therefore, there are four camel cavalry teams stationed all year round in the Great Oasis. Even if most of the troops are drawn because of the fighting, at least one camel cavalry regiment should be there. Xikang Nice let the servants around him come in contact with each other, and soon the servants brought the cavalry officers,
　　
"His Royal Highness!" After seeing the royal seal on the flag of West Connis, this cavalry officer quickly saluted West Connis on horseback. He was hesitant when he learned that West Connis was going to cross the front theater. After a moment, he said, "The Eeros have cut off the road to Cornelia. If your Highness must go, this will not pass. The Great Oasis happens to have a team of Falcon Empire caravans. In the circumstances, only the Falcon Empire business group can pass through the war zone! The Eero Army is not too dared to offend the Falcon Empire for the time being. At most, it is just a little more toll tolls, and now the Eero people also believe that Cornelia They are already in the region, and they have relaxed a lot in inspection!"
　　
　　 "Unpretentious, a small patrol leader, dare to call the temple down to pretend to be a merchant of the Falcon Empire!!"
　　
"The Battle of North and South, the Falcon Empire slaughtered more than one hundred thousand warriors in Aden. You dare to speak for the Falcon Empire. Believe it or not, I will kill you immediately!" West Connis had not spoken, and the attendant next to him The knights are already boiling. The Falcon Empire killed hundreds of thousands of Aden soldiers in the battle between north and south, most of them are elite troops stationed in the big oasis near the capital of King Aden. The relationship of less, has been regarded as a shame by the entire King Aden, especially the servants cavalry who followed West Connis out of King Aden, regarded the Falcon Empire as their enemy, this time following the West Connis down the Falcon Empire Everyone clamored to take a good look at the Falcon Empire. What is the Aden Warrior? The shame of the battle between the North and the South must be scrubbed back. Who knows that he hasn’t gone out yet, and was called by a patrol leader to pretend to hunt Eagle Empire businessman, how to be willing, how to be not angry,
　　
The patrol captain was also a veteran oil child, fighting for the emotions in front of him, but rolled his eyes, "You are right, how can you make His Royal Highness the prince pretend to be a businessman of the Falcon Empire, I believe in your skills Inevitably guarantees that His Royal Highness will break through the lock line from the 300,000 army of Eero."
　　
After speaking, the patrol leader no longer speaks, but looks at the sky. You are the nobles from the king. The old maid can't provoke it. Okay, the old maid has been stationed in this large oasis near the east coast for more than ten years. No one has seen it. Since the Civil War, there are so many Adenites who scold the Falcon Empire, but what can they do? The falcon empire did not come over, but the Eero people came over. Cornelia fought together, the entire trade route was cut off, how many merchants’ goods were blocked here, and finally did not rely on the falcon empire The signboard of the merchant group can pass through the sealing line of the Eruo people. Those who are tough, refuse to bow their heads, and have to deal with the low price of the goods. Now the long-lost blood is lost!
　　
"you!"
　　
Hearing the words of the captain of the patrol, the people of West Connis suddenly uttered a word. Who would dare to say that even if the God of War is reincarnated, it is impossible to break through the area of ​​Cornelia, which is full of 300,000 Ero troops. But Lang has three hundred miles, and it takes more than two days to vigorously run the horse. Who would dare to say that he will not encounter the Erow
　　
"Okay, everyone is quiet." West Connis raised his hand somberly. The Ero's seal was indeed a problem. Originally, he also wanted to pass through as a caravan. During the war, the most profitable is the merchant. The team, the spoils and the captives of both sides of the war also need the caravans to digest, so it is the custom of the south to not move the caravans during the war, but this time I did not expect that the Eero people opposed the practice this time and even blocked After the whole passage, except for the caravan of the Falcon Empire, the caravan of any other country will not let go. West Connis is not a rigid character, otherwise it will not be sent to perform such diplomatic missions. After careful cross-examination, I realized that the reason why the business group pretending to be the Falcon Empire will not be investigated is because the Falcon Empire leased the port of Cairo in the Eero Empire. The business groups here will be sent directly to the port of Cairo by the Eero people, and then Only then have the opportunity to travel from the sea to all parts of the Inland Sea. In this case, even if these merchants are mixed with people who are unfavorable to Erow, there is no chance to enter Erow and stay in the war zone.
"All the Falcon Empire Merchants are registered with the Erow, and the possibility of impersonation is difficult!" Seeing West Connis's hesitant look, the patrol leader quickly said, "Someone tried to impersonate the Falcon before. The Empire Merchants crossed the blockade line, and as a result, the Erow were found out, all of them were nailed to the side of the road. The Eeroes assigned a specific guide to the Empire Caravan passing here, through the blockade line , You need the proof of the guide and the Falcon Empire Chamber of Commerce"
　　
　　 "That's not easy yet? Grab a guide and grab a certificate!"
　　
　　 Hearing the conditions required is so simple, a servant said with a grin in his mouth
　　
　　 The other attendants also quickly echoed, "Yeah, isn't it just a certificate for one person? Grab a guide and grab another one!"
　　
　　Only Sikonese's face was silent. He settled down, looked at the patrol leader, and asked, "If the conditions required are so simple, why would no one else do this?"
　　
Hearing this, the patrol leader raised his eyebrows slightly and sighed, "If your Highness really does this~EbookFREE.me~ it would have completely harmed Aden. To be honest, now we are more than those Eeros It’s also nervous, I’m afraid that the unremarkable person really did such a thing, so we must send cavalry to the entire journey from each Falcon Empire business group until we enter the control area of ​​the Eros!

　　
　　 "Asshole, what benefit did the Falcon Empire give you, let you do such a thing!" The cavalrymen were completely angry, and they all pulled out a sharp machete at the waist.
　　
The border guards of the patrolling officers also raised the spears one by one, and the swords were drawn on both sides. They may start at any time. West Connis felt that the situation was not right, but he did not know what was wrong. Although the border guards of the Kingdom of Aden were not absolutely loyal elite, but It’s not easy to buy, and it’s still more than a month before the battle between North and South. West Connis resisted his inner anger. "Why do you escort? You are soldiers of the Kingdom of Aden, why do you do this?"
　　
　　 "The army of the Falcon Empire is still on the border of Istan. It will be the same if the merchants of other countries are robbed. If the merchants of the Falcon Empire are robbed, has His Royal Highness thought about the consequences?"
　　
　　 said the patrol captain slowly, judging from his calm expression, this is not the first time in the face of this situation. Who wants to protect the Falcon Empire Merchants Corps? But without guarding, once the attack is damaged, the army of the Falcon Empire may be killed from the Istan region at any time, and the whole country is fighting for business affairs. The Falcon Empire is not unable to do it. The Eeros are terrible, but they are better than Starting from the Falcon Empire Army, it is still a little inferior. The old son is completely for the sake of the kingdom, OK?
