Realm of Power

Behind Rusty's Western Front

A drizzle enveloped this typical large manor from the Fit era. The area outside the building was like a huge flower garden, occupying almost the entire valley bottom. The gray and dim three-meter outer wall extended along the valley to the mouth of the valley, with a faint line The mountain road enters the valley from here,

The cliffs of the valley are covered with green mosses, and the rock walls along the canyon are like a curtain covering the whole world. This valley has a very beautiful name "Green Valley". It used to be the private residence of a powerful man in Rusty. Territory, this powerful man built a mansion at the bottom of the valley The reddish-brown honeycomb-style building complex occupies nearly one-third of the entire basin, with countless elegant and beautiful marble arch windows at the top and bottom, scattered in an orderly manner on the front of the building complex, and a row of round spires on the roof. Rows of towering spears pointing straight into the sky

A row of simple and thick bronze fences separates the hundreds-meter-long cyan corridor outside from the wide and quiet courtyard inside. Marble knight sculptures with different images are distributed on both sides of the evergreen wall corridor like guards.

"Stop, the stronghold of the Guards, show your ID!" At the entrance of the valley, a Gallic Guards officer reached out with a serious expression to stop a galloping messenger cavalry. Behind him, a team of soldiers wearing uniforms A patrol in Gallic Guards armor is passing by

"I am from the Sixth Army Headquarters, and I have an urgent letter that needs to be delivered to the Lord Supervisor!"

The messenger cavalry took out his identity certificate with the seal of the Sixth Army Corps from his arms, got off the horse, and handed it to the guard officer in front of him with great reluctance. The general person in charge of the Rusty War Zone was Hassen. Lord Rimbaud. But half a month ago, the supervisor from Kyoto changed all this, and the early battle in the Rusty area was unfavorable. This caused Kyoto to have doubts about Hassan Rimbaud, who once tried to stop the iron heel of the Falcon of Wikiia.

This mysterious supervisor secretly arrived at the Rusty War Zone on a rainy night, and, escorted by thousands of Emperor's Guards wearing red cloaks, personally visited Hassan Rimbaud, who was in a meeting to lay out the center-line defense strategy. of the Legion Headquarters,

An order issued by the Ministry of Military Affairs was circulated in front of all the participating Gallic generals, and finally returned to the hands of the beautiful white jade that can decide countless lives and deaths.

"Lord Hassan Rimbaud works hard for the empire every day. Even if there is no credit, there is hard work, and His Majesty the Emperor will not forget it! But now, please carry out the order!" The voice is as soft and crisp as an oriole, and the face is beautiful. Algernon Julia, who was wearing a black leather hunting suit, spread out the emperor's order book in her hand and placed it in front of Hassan Rimbaud, who was a little confused.

After the order was read out, everyone's faces looked heavy. Hassen Rimbaud, who was full of grief and anger, threw the pen in his hand on the map angrily and said, "Miss Julia, how could this be possible? Although the center line failed, it has not really reached the point of irreparability."

We are tired, and the Falcon Army is also tired from fighting. Even if they really capture all sixteen cities, it will only take about a month and a half to capture and clear the cities. It's late March now, just dragging this war into the heat of summer. The situation will become favorable to us,

Giving up now is not just as simple as losing the city. If we evacuate like this without even fighting a decent battle, the trust of our imperial army in the hearts of the Rustians will be lost! No one will believe that the imperial army can hold on to Rusty. In the hearts of the people, we have already lost this war early! "

"It's better to lose the trust of some Rustians than to lose the entire empire!" Algernon Julia smiled coldly and said without giving in. "With the empire's 400,000 troops as a bet, just for the hearts of a dozen cities, Is this the choice Mr. Hassan Rimbaud made? It is still unknown whether he can hold on to the central city, but if the empire's army is exhausted because of this, the empire will not even have the chance to see the dawn of victory! "

"As the military commander on the front line of the Rusty War Zone, I do not agree to abandon the central urban area like this! Because this is not good for the entire war situation. Even if it is an order from the Ministry of Military Affairs, I have the right to refuse." Hassen Rambo stood up aggressively, looking at Looking bright and uninvited Algernon Julia, who came here, said with a livid face that she was the front-line military officer of the 400,000-strong army on the front line. This appointment came from His Majesty the Supreme Emperor. Even the Ministry of Military Affairs could not directly make the appointment without the Emperor's approval. Take away his power,

"So I will not agree, unless there is an order from the emperor!" Hassan Rimbaud said loudly, seeming a little speculative, because he knew very well the weight of the woman with ill intentions in front of him. The emperor's palace affairs officer, currently the emperor's most trusted one of the people, this woman in the southwest The bloody storm in the region is enough to scare people. Maybe the truth about the southwest rebellion is not clear in Gaul, but this is the Rusty region close to the southwest. The reason for the rebellion of the Murphy brothers, the tragic and bloody situation in the capital of the southwest, this woman The role he plays in it can be said to be very important.

However, this woman, as a female prostitute, almost made the famous generals who dominated the eastern battlefield, the Murphy brothers who controlled the entire southwest region and commanded more than 100,000 southwest troops, almost died in the battle at the gate of the southwest capital, which is enough to illustrate her. Extraordinary performance in command,

Facing such a ruthless person! Hassen Rimbaud was also a little secretly annoyed in his heart. When he was in Kyoto, he should not have agreed to the request of the Ministry of Military Affairs to set up a supervisory army. It was not difficult for this woman to ask for the emperor's order. She just hoped to delay it for a while. Unfortunately, His plan failed

"Hassen Rimbaud can ignore the orders of the Ministry of Military Affairs, so I wonder if this order from His Majesty the Emperor can also be ignored!" Seeing Hassen Rimbaud's uncertain face and his determination to resist to the death, Al As if she had expected it, Jenon Julia once again took out a yellow warrant document and handed it to Hassen Rimbaud.

"This..." Hassan Rimbaud's eyes stopped on the document in his hand. The emperor's seal was clearly on it. This was a document giving full power to the supervisory officer Algernon Julia. With this document document. Even if he was dismissed immediately, Hassan Rimbaud would be enough.

"This is His Majesty the Emperor's order!"

There was a sound of gasping in the conference room, and everyone looked at Hassenlan Polanbo with a bit of pity. Hassan Rimbaud's face also turned a little pale, this woman! He was like a defeated rooster. His lips were slightly opened, but he could no longer speak. He turned around and walked out of the military tent in shame.

In the first battle, the supervisor from Kyoto was victorious

This was the first impression formed by the generals who attended the meeting that day, and they blatantly ordered all troops still fighting to abandon the middle-line urban areas that were still undergoing fierce fighting. With all her strength to shrink and stick to the Western Front, this woman can be said to have demonstrated more powerful power than the original person in charge, Hassan Rimbaud.

And this Lord Supervisor, who has a strong background in Kyoto, has received the full support of the Kyoto faction headed by Commander Tielan of the Blue Holy Beast Cavalry. This time, the Lord Supervisor came with him, as well as reinforcements. 10,000 powerful emperor's guard heavy cavalry. For the Western Front of Gaul, which was in urgent need of heavy troops, this was a timely help. With the defeat of the Eastern Front and the abandonment of the Central Front, the local garrison in the Rusty area could be said to be the main force in consecutive defeats, suffering heavy casualties.

The troops of the Kyoto faction only suffered some minor losses.

One goes down and the other goes down. This supervisor from Kyoto has undoubtedly become the real person in charge of the entire Rasti region. This is also the reason why the Gallic army was uncharacteristically confused some time ago, which confused the fat man, since the real person in charge has changed. Naturally, the combat style has also changed.

green valley

It is currently the office of Algernon Julia, with fingers as white as jade. He gently picked up the cutout and opened the letter that had just been sent with a bit of confusion.

"This is!"

Algernon Julia's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, and it turned out to be a letter forwarded by the Sixth Army. The content of the letter was very simple, but the person who wrote the letter was enough to make Algernon Julia lose her mind in shock.

Her beautiful pupils narrowed slightly and focused on the seal at the end of the letter.

A falcon coat of arms with spread wings was drawn into the eyelids. The high-spirited posture showed the domineering power of the owner who used this coat of arms. It seemed to attract all her thoughts. This letter turned out to be the most terrifying enemy of the empire. Wikija Falcon wrote to himself!

It's no wonder that Hassan Rimbaud didn't dare to handle it without authorization, so he was so eager to leave it to himself!

In this letter, Vecilia Falcon first expressed congratulations on becoming the supervisor of the Gallic army, and then euphemistically said, "I heard that the lady has been studying in Baili Changting, the capital of the Central Asian Empire, for three years incognito, and has achieved outstanding results. , known as one of the few people who can understand China’s national flag I am a foreigner who is familiar with politics and is very obsessed with the iron piano playing of the Central and African Empire. It happened that I was lucky enough to invite Miss Qianyun, one of the three largest iron piano players in Central Asia. I heard that she was an old friend of her in Kyoto. No, Do you know if I am lucky enough to invite you to listen to a song with me?”

"Qianyun is actually in the hands of the Vekia Falcon!"

The letter slipped from Algernon Julia's shocked fingertips to the ground. Qianyun was her best friend when she was studying at Baili Changting in Kyoto, Central Asia, and was also her piano teacher at the Imperial Academy at the time.

After that incident, it was also through her help that Qian Yun came to Gaul from Central Asia. Because of her relationship, a noble from a branch of the family was willing to provide shelter to Qian Yun, but that noble followed her in the Battle of the Southwest. in, has already fallen,

When she fled the southwest capital in panic, she couldn't protect herself. Who had the energy to control Qianyun in the chaos of war? She always felt a little guilty about this. She thought Qianyun had already disappeared in the chaos. Unexpectedly, it would be in the hands of the Vekia Falcon.

Thinking that her old friend was still around, Algernon Julia couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in her heart, but more horrified thoughts spread in her mind.

Although he had appeared at the meeting, and it was natural for him to appear as a supervisor in the other party's application, few people in Gaul knew that he changed his name and went to study in Central Asia. How did Ya Falcon know!

Could it be Qianyun!

Algernon, Julia Danfeng's eyes opened, murderous intent was faintly visible, and her face was filled with confusion. She walked around the room, her face getting colder and colder. There were raindrops outside the window, which was hazy and a bit cold.

"Come here, bring Lord Angelio!" Julia Algernon shouted out the door. Although she had the emperor's warrant and was in charge of the Gallic army, her office location was different from the legion headquarters that actually fought. , the main operations are still in charge of Hassen Rimbaud. Midoriya is only responsible for handling general affairs, mainly to show that he is only supervising the army. Hassen Rimbaud was the chief military officer, although Algernon Julia had already outnumbered Hassen Rimbaud, the chief military officer.

But the battle in the southwest made her realize that her so-called military command ability was a joke in front of real famous generals, not to mention that the enemy on the opposite side was the so-called undefeated Falcon Emperor of Vecia, an emperor who rose from the northwest of the empire. In just one year, he occupied a large area of ​​​​the empire in the west, defeated 300,000 imperial troops, taught his always proud younger brother a lesson, beat the imperial army into disgrace, and made the imperial generals His expression changed as he said that it was impossible for a rookie on the battlefield like himself to stop the undefeated emperor.

She is not an arrogant woman. The reason why she is ruthless is mainly related to her three years of study experience in the Central Asian Empire. Central Asians have always believed that in order to achieve their goals, they will do whatever it takes to study. From the war documents I have been exposed to in the past three years.

Use prisoners to attack the city, delay the enemy's pursuit, fortify the walls and clear the country, burn everything, kill people and reduce the number of people to weaken the enemy's strength. There are many cases of eating up the entire city's civilians as food under total siege. In China and Libya, these horrific behaviors are sometimes praised, and these are all glorious deeds of the so-called famous generals in China and Libya.

In order to understand the biggest enemy of the empire at that time, Algernon Julia changed her name and entered the enemy's capital for three years when she was sixteen years old. She fully understood all aspects of the enemy's intelligence. It was also based on her intelligence that the young emperor of Gaul ascended the throne. Based on this, he launched a major war based on the Seattle area and appointed her as the Palace Affairs Officer.

300,000 Gallic troops swooped into Seattle, trying to break the stalemate that had lasted for decades. The early advance was overwhelming, catching the Central Asians by surprise. The entire empire was determined to win this battle, and its morale was at its peak. ,

Although in the end the two legions on the flanks advanced too quickly and were surrounded by the heavy troops of Zhongbia, they were defeated. However, in terms of intelligence at that time, Gaul was ahead of Zhongbia. If it were not for the intelligence at that time, Gaul was separated from the two wings. Long Yangjun, the commander-in-chief of the Central and Asian troops who were covered by a cluster, was lucky. His men rushed to rescue them desperately, but they might have been crushed by the Murphy dragon armored cavalry that rushed directly, thus shaking the entire battle situation. That war was defeated. By providence, not by manpower

"Miss, do you have a problem with me?"

Soon, the evil traitor Angelio appeared in front of her, bowed and saluted, and said with a respectful expression,

The former Rassende aristocrat was wearing a strict red-lined tuxedo with a curly golden wig on his head to cover up his Rassendian flaxen hair. He looked like a Kyoto aristocrat in every move he made. You must know that Algernon Julia is the star of hope who has high hopes in the Kyoto faction. Naturally, the person who follows this star of hope cannot be a small noble from a remote area in the northwest.

"Look at this!" Algernon Julia handed him the letter in her hand

"This is an invitation from the Falcon King!"

Angelio's eyes flashed unnoticed. Algernon and Julia never imagined that the information about her studying in Central Africa was actually revealed to the Falcon by the big insider in front of her. As for Algernon, Julia knew a Central African violinist named Qianyun.

Angelio, who was lurking next to Algernon Julia, naturally knew about the Southwest Rebellion.

He had not received news from the Falcon Empire, so he could not judge the fat man's true thoughts. He deliberately pretended to be serious and said, "He is just an insignificant piano artist. Although he is an old friend, he is in a dangerous place now, Miss." It’s okay if you don’t go! And my subordinates think that this Falcon King is so despicable that he used this unknown Qianyun to blackmail the lady! "

"No, I have to go! I came to you because I need someone who knows about the Falcon Empire to accompany me." Algernon Julia said with a serious expression and a livid face. "Although the reputation of the Vecian Falcon is not good, at least it is not yet I’ve heard of cases of killing women.”

"Miss, this is too dangerous! The Falcon King obviously has bad intentions." Angelio was also shocked by her decision and pretended to be loyal.

"Qianyun once met His Majesty the Emperor under my recommendation, and he was able to calm down the Emperor's irritable mood with the wonderful music of the piano. Qianyun knows the Emperor's secret very well!" Algernon Julia smiled bitterly and looked at The misty rain outside the window,

After a long time, the murderous intent in her eyes turned into a permeating chill, and she snorted coldly, "Although they are old friends, since they are hidden dangers, they can only be eliminated! As the empire is in turmoil, the emperor's condition has become worse and worse. The more unstable it becomes, the entire palace is shrouded in tension.

Once the other party publicizes the emperor's illness to the outside world, I am afraid that the emperor will be so angry that it is difficult to say whether he can survive the coming hot summer. The emperor has not yet married, has no heir, and the ambitions of the princes from all over the world. The Falcon Empire, The Central Bian Empire, the Slavs are pressing forward step by step. Once killed suddenly, the empire will be in chaos without a war. It will have a collapse-like impact on the current empire!

"For His Majesty, I have no choice! Sister Qianyun, please don't blame me for being cruel," Algernon Julia clenched her ten slender fingers together, her nails deeply embedded in the flesh, she seemed not to feel the pain,
