Realm of Power

Staring at the departing figure of the Falcon Empire's special envoy Moweiya, Hayela, the governor of the Eastern Province, leaned back heavily on the chair. Hearing the overwhelming creaking sound of the chair, Hayela's With dull eyes and a face of silence, his eyes fell on the golden late autumn woodland outside the window. The vast tracts were like pastels painted on the earth, making the world look particularly bright and dazzling.

"All creatures in the world are trying to preserve their most beautiful postures before winter comes. So, do you have to seek death?" Hayera said to herself, placing her hands on the table consciously. In that congratulatory letter, the words of the Falcon Empire's envoy kept swirling in his mind. He was able to read it from a A wilderness man with a low status, who has climbed to his current position, is naturally not a fool. After a little analysis in his mind, he can basically confirm the authenticity of what the Falcon Empire's special envoy said. No matter what the purpose of the second prince is, here Suddenly he was promoted to Marquis, and he was also very generously given a fief.

Under such a premise, as the governor of the Eastern Province and the interlayer barrier between the Istan Empire and the Feishan Kingdom, the only thing I can do is to sell my life to the second prince and die with my own body. It is really frustrating and helpless to block the Feishan people's troops from heading eastward, but the whole The Eastern Province has only 15,000 troops, and there is no backup to rely on. Once Fei Shan's army moves eastward, his end will be death. As for the proposal in the direction of Kyoto, it requires extraordinary times, extraordinary measures, and military strength. Isn't it a joke to recruit from the local area if it is not enough?

Other areas are available. But the Eastern Province was originally the land of the Kingdom of Feishan. The people here were still Feishans who came here five years ago to recruit soldiers to fight against Feishans. This is extremely alarming. Could it be that the heads of the ministers in Kyoto were kicked by donkeys? How could the Feishan people here live and die with Istan? When the time comes, it is very possible that they will welcome the Feishan army along the way, or they will specifically guide the Feishan army to attack their own Ruanle, Tianshi. Good location, good people. How can we fight this battle if we don't take advantage of it? Hayela didn't believe that Kyoto couldn't see this, but they all pretended to be deaf and dumb, completely ignoring the embarrassment of having a knife pressed to their necks.

Deploy according to normal logic. The most important order that Kyoto should issue to itself should be a retreat order. As for the Eastern Province, is it still necessary to retain the occupation now? But what happened was that what Kyoto sent was the title of Marquis. With such a great justice on his head, how could he evacuate?

Abandon your son?

I think that I, Hayela, fought for the empire and lived and died several times to gain my current status. Could it be that my ultimate value is just a short-term marquis! This is too much of a joke! Hayela's eyes became more and more fierce. A cold and bitter smile came from the corner of his mouth. He didn't want to die, and his eyes glanced at a water glass on the table. Suddenly he picked it up and smashed it down at his feet. No matter what, he took it one step at a time. In the current situation, did he still have any choice? Extending your head is a knife, and shrinking your head is also a knife!

"Pa"

The crystal clear Zambia fine porcelain cup just turned into countless white fragments on the dark red carpet in the room. The water inside spilled all over the carpet. This water cup was specially given as a gift by the second prince. It is said to be the proud work of a ceramic master from the Central Asian Empire. The entire cup is snow-white and crystal-clear, and the walls of the cup are extremely thin. If you hold it toward the sun, you can see the water inside rippling through the cup wall, so it is also called "Chinese Cup". "Biaguang" Hayela often uses this cup as a way to show off that she is valued, but at this moment, this expensive and gorgeous water cup is so eye-catching!

"What happened?" The adjutant ran in from outside in a panic.

"It's nothing. I'll clean up later. Let's go down!" Hayela waved his hand to the adjutant with a stern expression. Just now, he had made up his mind. He had already betrayed him once and was not afraid of betraying him a second time. A person has value only when he is alive. Otherwise, for a great man like Thoradin I, whose life and death were unknown, the Istan Empire's hard-won rise would have been shaken in an instant, and hundreds of thousands of troops were reversed. ! It's just that Hayera doesn't understand. Istanbul and Kyoto regard him as an abandoned son. Why is the Falcon Empire so willing to spare no effort to win over an abandoned son of his?

"Come here, bring Fei Shan's map and the recent battle report between the Falcon Empire and Fei Shan." Hayela shouted to the adjutant outside. He vaguely noticed something. The Falcon Emperor always used strategy and strategy. He is famous for being unparalleled. This time, he might have really taken a liking to him. Soon, the adjutant walked in with a map and a plate of reports.

In the afternoon of the next day, Falcon Empire envoy Moweiya received a request from Governor Hayela for another secret meeting.

In a secluded residence next to the street, Moweiya saw Hayela wearing only casual clothes in a small pavilion. Looking around, it is very elegantly decorated. There was no other person in the room, and the sunlight outside the window shone on the fat governor. He really felt a bit like a rich man. It seemed that he had put aside his inner hesitation. This time, Hayela regained a bit of Istanbul. With the magnanimity of the first general in the empire, he looked at Moweiya who walked in, stood up, gestured to him to sit down, and said in a calm tone.

"Since Your Excellency is so candid, I will get straight to the point. Please tell me the truth, are you really an imperial foreign affairs officer?"

"What do you mean, Lord Governor?" Moweiya sat down calmly,

Before coming, he had read detailed information about the most famous general in Istanbul. The nickname of this famous general in Istanbul is War Fox. He has extremely strong military ability. If he hadn't held back the battle of Gangfei by himself, Without the main force of the Imperial Guards of the Gangfei Army, the Emperor of the Istan Empire would not have succeeded in a sneak attack on Gangfei Kyoto so easily. This shows that he is not an easy character to deceive. If something is slightly wrong, there is a danger of being discovered.

Regarding his denial, Hayela did not take it seriously and said slowly, "If your Excellency is really a foreign affairs officer, then please replace him."

"Oh? Why?"

Moweiya didn't look surprised at all. On the contrary, Hayela's attitude was normal. A regional governor surrendered to the enemy country, and it was only a foreign affairs officer who crossed his fingers to do it. How could that be possible? Since it is a surrender, there are surrender conditions to negotiate. A small foreign affairs officer cannot bear such a responsibility.

"Although I am willing to serve the empire, I don't think that just as a foreign affairs officer, I can take on such a thing. This matter is related to my life and death, Hayela, the Eastern Province, and even the relationship between the empire and Fei Shan. To put it bluntly, I want someone who can take responsibility for the success or failure of the battle!"

Hayela made a heavy voice and stared at him with fierce aura, as sharp as if she wanted to burn two holes in his face.

"Then what kind of person does the Governor want?" Moweiya raised his head and faced Hayela's gaze calmly. He hesitated and said, "And what the Governor said is too unreliable! What does it have to do with the empire?" The success or failure of the battle against Feishan is a joke. Is there any connection between the Eastern Province and the battle against Feishan?”

"Haha, I, Ha Yela, am also a person who came out of the Corpse Mountain with blood and sea power. I was originally wondering why the Empire was interested in me, the Eastern Province, but after I read the recent battle report, I suddenly understood that the Empire wanted to Use the Eastern Province as a springboard to launch a fatal blow to the Feishan people!"

Hayela smiled calmly and said, "Your Excellency is the person who can lie the most calmly in front of me. But no matter how smart you are, there is one thing you can't pretend: your pupils suddenly shrunk just now, which shows even more , you are not just an ordinary foreign affairs officer of the empire! Otherwise, how would you know about such a large-scale planning method that can completely turn Fei Shan's situation upside down?"

There was silence in the room, and there was a silent depression in the air.

"Well, the Governor is right, I am not a foreign affairs officer." Movia admitted openly, secretly surprised by the judgment of the first general of the Istan Empire.

"My name is Francis Lal, the head of the Falcon Empire's intelligence team on the Istan Empire!" Movia spoke again, and his attitude became much more serious. He formally introduced his identity and said, "Sure enough, Lord Governor. As worthy of the name of Istan's number one general, I have almost touched the core of the entire plan with just a few clues. If I had not known something in advance, I would not have thought that the current position of the Eastern Province was exactly behind the Feishan Kingdom. The best position for a strike. Fei Shan's army is now fighting on two fronts. Almost all of its troops are concentrated on the coast and the Bavaria area. However, there are only a small number of troops stationed in the border areas with the Eastern Province. At this time, the emperor If the team arrives in the Eastern Province via the navy and then launches a sudden attack, Fei Shan's army's backyard will be completely in chaos. The most important step in the entire plan is to draw the governor to the empire's side, so the governor can completely believe in our sincerity."

"Your Excellency, is this Francillar?"

Hayela was secretly surprised when she heard this. Fransillar, the head of the Falcon Empire's intelligence team for the Istan Empire, did not expect it to be him. Hayela had also heard of Fransillar from some secret channels. Er's name, and now he finally confirmed his thoughts. The Falcon Empire has no doubts about his own. He was silent for a while, and then he said in deep thought, "There is no strategic problem in attacking Fei Shan from the Eastern Province, but with all due respect, does the empire currently have such redundant troops? And I also want to know, Why does the empire think that Hayela will follow me wholeheartedly? "
