: Three thousand eight hundred and thirty-six Aden's Death Bell (10)

Catobia Province, Southern Aden
Isam
In the distance, you can see the castle standing high among the mountains, facing the vast plains of the river, the plains that have just rained, and the dense water network of rivers of different sizes. The water surface sparkles in the bright sunshine. The large area covered by the criss-crossing rivers of the Gulf of Aden is like a person's raised head on the map of Aden
This land is where the Issam family, known as the guardian three-headed dog, voluntarily guarded the kingdom portal. For more than a hundred years, the Issam family's children have been living on this land and thrive. After more than 100 years of ups and downs, the Issam family can gradually develop and grow in the brutal political and military struggles, and eventually become the top ten lords in Aden.
On the road to the mountain pass, a dozen Aden cavalry holding the Xingyue flag escorted a blue carriage through. The guards who guarded the pass looked at the military department logo on the carriage and immediately converged on the face. Ferocious, politely let the soldiers release the barricades. They are the private soldiers of the regional lords, and they are not yet qualified to leave the tolls of the military department vehicles.
"The same is true of the Issam family with the name of the guardian three-headed dog. If it is not the three-headed dog mark on their family coat of arms, it is no different from the other regional lords." A young military officer on the carriage looked at Retracted from the position of the pass just past, with a hint of scorn in the corner of the mouth
He withdrew his military uniform is the "handsome, red-haired tall man" in the eyes of the noble ladies of the king of Aden. Sometimes, he also feels at a loss that his age does not match his rank, and he cannot yet accept this fact as casually as his superior.
"Any family will be like this for decades. It’s no surprise that if the Issam family still maintains the sturdyness of 100,000 Mosiahs who dared to counterattack the 100,000 Mosias with a weak army of seven thousand years ago. The person who can’t sleep well at night is His Majesty the King.
Sitting across from the young officer, a plain-looking young man’s mouth slightly touched. He did not have the handsomeness of the young man opposite, but the voice of the speech carried a kind of air pressure, although Sitting, his eyes were as sharp and eagle-like as an eagle, with a cold sword-like light, military uniforms dominated by black and silver, still smooth and tightly clinging to his shapely limbs, and became more sophisticated. Smart masculinity.
"Are you looking at the rivers that flow down from the branch of the Gulf of Aden? Your Excellency!" said the young officer opposite, with red hair and a handsome goose egg face, a fine art work by Yuan Ruo, an ancient carving master.
"Well! These rivers are all branching from the Gulf of Aden. It is really a breathtaking scenery. The huge mountain range extending all the way from the south of Aden is gradually lowered here, and finally it is like a dragon that enters the sea and merges into the river on the edge of the Gulf of Aden. Plains, the Issam’s territory is the last end of the mountain range, and the last gate into the Gulf of Aden. Such a view is only invisible on the map of the military department. "The young officer hesitated and heavy. 'S voice continued, "The beautiful scenery is intoxicating, but once this flat terrain is broken by the imperial army, it will be a disaster for the entire Gulf of Aden!"
"Your excellency believes that this is absolutely impossible. It is absolutely impossible to fight against the 20,000 Imperial Army with one hundred thousand troops, and the fourth army of Aden, one of the two armies of the capital. ... unless the Imperial Army changed its strength from 20,000 to 200,000." The young red-haired officer was Jerome, the deputy of the War Department of the War Department of the Kingdom of Aden, and the young man sitting opposite him was Jeros. Philo is the division chief of the Aden Military Department. The division is one of the seven divisions of the Aden Military Department. The main task is to coordinate the layout of the theater. It seems to have great power. In fact, it is to assist the liaison departments of the other six departments.
Hearing his adjutant’s words, Gerlos Ferro looked at the land known as the south of the south through the window of the carriage, and said with a condensed voice,
The most important thing that attracts the attention of the military department of the Kingdom of Aden is the south in the south. On the battlefield, more than half a month after the 20,000 Imperial Army broke into the southern part of the Gulf of Aden, after the army defeated the front line and the navy lost two squadrons, we finally completed the troop configuration on the southern battlefield and used the capital to fight One of the fourth army of Aden, the 60,000 Aden army with the core as the main force, and the 80,000 slave army obtained from the major southern lords, a total of 140,000 troops, placed in front of the 20,000 imperial army, According to the report submitted to the Kingdom of Aden by the Kingdom’s Ministry of Military Affairs, this would be a crushing battle. The Aden’s army would slash all the imperial troops in southern Aden like an iron stream, making the empire really feel the pain of the skin and let the empire not Dare to look at Aden again!"
Gerlos Ferro’s voice paused before continuing:
But I think the report of the Ministry of Military Affairs is nonsense. This time the imperial army invaded the South. Although it has not spread to the Gulf of Aden area, it should not be so simple, because Don’t forget that the manipulator of this battle is the warlord emperor, but I just used 20,000 troops to rob me of Aden in a fire and then ran away, but it’s not the warlord emperor’s method that nobody noticed. There was a fatal blow, a sword sealed the throat, and the entire captivating battle was settled. The warlord emperor was never such a tempted person. Although I don’t know what the real intention of the empire is, but the sharp edge is in the back. It feels more intense, too"
"Your Excellency can talk to Master Darius. His adjutant once mentioned that the Undersecretary of Darius also believed that the imperial army's intention was not just a southern one." The adjutant replied. "But you also know that two years ago During the North-South War of the Empire, the Darius commander fled back to the country alone, causing a lot of dissatisfaction, so although he was appointed as the second commander in the past two years, he has always been powerless and unemployed. Oasis News"
"You should tell me about this news earlier, I am not familiar with Darius." Gerlos Ferro's eyes lit up, and soon he sighed again. "So I went to Marshal Lata and Master Guliemu. Agrees, but has no further results"
"How could you find Marshal Latta and Master Guliemu, they were all in one... That was a self-introduction." The voice of the red-haired adjutant was almost howling. As an adjutant, that was all kinds of news. The collector, not to mention that the red-haired adjutant himself is so handsome and familiar with many Shangguan female secretaries, is the famous gossip little prince of the military department,
"Any questions?"
The adjutant sighed and said, "Your Excellency, among the top ten worst incidents of the Ministry of Military Affairs that broke out last year, the Issam family beat the Special Envoy of the Ministry of Military Affairs first. Haven’t heard of it? In the end, Your Majesty came forward, and the Issam family issued a statement without pain. It was a statement, not an apology. Adults can imagine how resentful the Minister looks at that statement. Ping, but what can I do, the Issam family has been a family of two queens, the most recent one is the current Queen Mother
"No, the brand of the Ministry of Military Affairs of the Kingdom of Aden, the local lords always have to give a little face," Gerlos Philo opened his mouth and said to himself
"Absolutely not including the Issam's family!" The red-haired adjutant immediately vowed that he was extremely dissatisfied with his sensitivity to being an official
"Is that true? Will I be beaten to death!" Gerlos Ferro seemed to think of something, his mouth slightly open.
"No, the Issam family should not have killed the special envoy of the military department, at most...' The adjutant's voice stopped, and he gave a glance at his superior." The last one The beaten special envoy was stripped of clothes and walked the street. It is said that many ladies also praised their good shape. As you know, Master Somato has been trained in the Red Dragon Hall, and your lord should be more than that. Welcome
"I think I may find out why the military department sent me to supervise military affairs," Gerlos Ferro sighed.
"Adults are not stupid enough to come home." The adjutant took a deep breath and said so much. In fact, he was reminding his silly boss that being sent to the Issam's house is definitely a problem. Here, military affairs The brand of the Ministry is not easy to use, this time it is definitely a big pit, and the person who digs this pit is probably Minister Lagure.
This senior official entered the Kingdom’s military department at a young age and served as the chief of one of the seven departments. It is said that it took over the position of Lord Lagulie’s nephew
People who have always been able to serve as ministers of war are often the confidants of the minister of military affairs, and this senior official is obviously not. It is said that this appointment was handed down by His Majesty the King, and Minister Lagulie returned to the military department to close the door and broke it. A pair of precious Zhongbian jade bottles, which were privately dedicated to the central royal family's collection of Minister Lagure by the generals who fought in the Central Bibian region,
"I just got married last year, my wife is very beautiful, but the old man's temper is a little grumpy, so we dare not go back at all... should we be considered an elopement?" I didn’t seem to see it at all. When I said it, I almost collapsed the adjutant Jerome. Whatever the time, my boss still cared about his wife
"Your Excellency, what we are discussing now is the safety of this trip, not your glorious history of elopement." Adj.
The War Department is a department with no real power, mainly responsible for center coordination, but the nature of center coordination means that it can’t control anything, but it can intervene in anything. In fact, it can also be regarded as the department with the most extensive power links. On the top is the super sign of the Kingdom’s Military Department, which holds the center of coordination in the hand, which is to see whoever gives him the right to wear small shoes. It does not require labor and effort. However, since the arrival of the new chief officer, the entire headquarters of the division has become the Qingshui Yamen. Within two months, fourteen people transferred from the division for various reasons, and the rest are only a few background tone. Immobile fish and shrimp
Sadly, I am one of the small fish and shrimp, if possible, I want to transfer away! The adjutant stared pitifully at his dazed face, and mourned inwardly
"I'm just talking about my safety, my wife's surname... It's like Isamu, it's like a family single daughter," Gerlos Ferro blinked. He already understood, and the military department let himself To tell the Issam family to prepare them for the fight
"Your wife is... It's finished, I heard that this generation of Icam's head has no son, only a daughter, and has been staying by the Queen Mother." The adjutant Jerome heard this and fell Took a breath,
"Will I be killed," Gerlos Ferro said worriedly
"Your Excellency, can you tell me the length?"
"Of course, you have to know what this one does?"
"Your exuberant corpse wilderness, anyway, there should be a coffin to converge, this matter, as a lieutenant, I also risked my life"
Sitting in a horse-drawn carriage moving forward steadily, I borrowed a building with an expression of crying and laughing. This pit is too big. Marshal Rata is currently the highest person in charge of military affairs in China. Minister Gu Limu has always claimed that the Imperial Army is just a bluff. , His own superior went to report to the two of them. "It's just an empire army of 20,000 people. Strictly speaking, even a large army can't reach the scale. How big a storm can rise, if not most of the Kingdom Army is in Central Arabia, this imperial army has long been swallowed up and lived by those generals who are full of confidence in Central Afghanistan. "Admiral Raguel made it very clear at the meeting of the Ministry of Military Affairs that his superiors publicly sang counter-attacks and were not pitted. It’s strange to die,
This is the murder by borrowing a knife. The old fellow of the Issam family, Horon, has not sold the face of the military department many times. He is already a blacklisted person. Now the person who knows that his daughter has been kidnapped comes to his own ground, and he does not slap. It's strange to shoot dead! In fact, Shangguan's body is still very strong, one slap may not be afraid of death, then two slaps!
With a sullen look, the carriage stopped in front of the old and vicissitudes of the Isam's house. The castle is made of large blocks of granite directly, and straw will be combined with clay in the middle. Although the appearance is very unsightly, it is ugly in the distance and more disgusting in the near, but this structure is very strong. Can effectively prevent enemy attacks.
Getting down from the carriage, inadvertently, Gerlos Ferro looked up at the uncovered scars on the castle, his brows could not help slightly, even his layman could feel that the entire castle was very ruined in defense, There are huge gaps in many places, and there is even a gap on the side of the city wall that is wide enough for two people to line up side by side. This is the main castle of the Icham's house, the name of the three-headed dog? Did you run in the wrong place! Gerlos Ferro hesitated,
"These are the traces of centuries of vicissitudes. It is also the glorious history of the Iqam family, so even if it can be repaired during repairs, the Iqam family still preserves these dilapidated rifts. This is the most tragic era of war. The remains of this show that this ancient castle has been attacked many times"
The red-haired lieutenant Jerome as a little gossip prince in the military department ~EbookFREE.me~ knew the history of the castle in front of him before he came, and felt the confusion of Shangguan, he explained in his mouth "especially eighty years ago At that time, the Mosias who controlled the south gathered 100,000 troops to attack the Gulf of Aden, and they were all the way to the Aden. The whole kingdom was pessimistic. Many regional lords fled without fighting, and only the Iqam family insisted on not going.
The Mosiah, who was angry and furious, attacked the castle with all his strength. The fierce battle lasted for 14 days. The stone thrown by the trebuchet was said to be more than a thousand. The Mosiah rushed into the castle thirty times, but still failed to destroy the castle. When the reinforcements of our side were killed, the tired Mosiah could only retreat in a panic, and was eventually killed by our main force. Finally, together with the king and more than thirty generals, they were either dead or captured. Five years later, the southern part The strongest Moses who surrendered to the kingdom"
"So anyone who proposes a defensive defense is an enemy of the Iqam family!" Adj. Jerome looked at his boss with a pity, and shrugged his shoulders
"In other words, this castle hasn't been repaired in 80 years, is that what it means, if the Imperial Army really hits here, wouldn't it..." Gerlos Ferro's face changed slightly.
