Realm of Power

"Is that lady going to the pier? I heard that there has been some chaos at the pier recently. Regarding that lady's safety..." Song Qian's beautiful eyes flashed as she watched Sokutus Stellan walk from the deck onto another speedboat and headed towards He walked away after discovering the situation at the pier, with a somewhat worried reminder. Although his imperial language was poor, he had stopped taking the exam for more than ten days at the pier, and he knew quite a bit about the things on the pier.

Song Qian's eyes became more and more interested in the fat man. She previously thought that Sokutus Dailan was a fat man and a maid, but after Sokutus Dailan showed her imposing manner, Sokutus Dailan's status also changed. Infinitely high in her heart, she originally thought that Sokutus Dailan had the highest status among the two, but later Sokutus Dailan Although Song Qian's imperial language was poor, she could still understand one or two words of what Tu Stellan said to Fatty. The person who was sent by the Song clan to be in charge of this transaction was naturally not blind. Song Qian learned from Kutustelan's tone and demeanor suddenly made her realize that the real person in charge was the black-haired young man in front of her.

"I believe she will handle it well." The fat man smiled nonchalantly. Before Anthea came, he looked at Song Qian who was wearing colorful clothes and said, "The left hand of Patriarch Song Que still hurts in winter." "Are you awesome?" "Do you know my uncle?" Song Qian couldn't help but smile. Moved, he hesitated and said, "Thank you for your concern. My uncle's left hand was shot by an arrow from the Long family army during the war in the southwest. Although the injury has healed now, it still hurts looming every time it rains." It hurts. I heard the doctor said it was a broken bone."

"We had a chance encounter"

The fat man looked towards the dock in the distance, showing a somewhat mysterious temperament. He couldn't tell Song Qian that he was at the scene when he pulled out the arrow for Song Que. The Song clan secretly attacked the southwest and almost lost their lives. After decades of accumulation by the Song people, if it were not for his intervention, I am afraid that the Song people would have become a historical term! After learning that the black-haired young man in front of her had indeed been to Central Asia, and that the description of Song Que's appearance was accurate, Song Qian was even more convinced that the fat man was a friend of the patriarch Song Que. In Song Qian's eyes When there was an unexpected surprise, another speedboat came out of the Song fleet at the dock in the distance and headed directly towards here.

The fat man took a look at the China-Biasia clipper and knew that it must be Sokutus Dailan who had asked the dock to lift the restrictions on the landing of the Song fleet. Sure enough, a few minutes after coming over, the clipper was on Song Qian's big ship. Stopped next to it, a ladder was hung up, and a tall man The young Chinese boy from China jumped onto Song Qian's ship and saw Song Qian having a lively conversation with a young man from China. He was slightly startled and walked over quickly, "Song Li, aren't you guarding the fleet? Why?" Come here." Victoria Song looked at the young man with a pretty face.

"Sister, the port just sent someone to send a charter, allowing our Song fleet to go ashore." The black-haired young man named Song Li took out a document from his arms, his eyes fell on the fat man, but It's full of vigilance

"Are you telling the truth? The port has allowed us to land?" Song Qian took the document with a stunned look on her face. She glanced over it with her pretty eyes. Her body was trembling slightly. She didn't seem to notice anything wrong with the black-haired young man's gaze. After confirming the file, He glanced at the back of the fat man who was watching the scenery of the pier in front of him in surprise, and couldn't help but feel a wave of turmoil in his heart. "Just now, the woman who seemed to be a maid went to the pier, and then the pier sent a charter? Song Qian unconsciously smiled bitterly. How could it be possible? She didn't think that the black-haired young man in front of her had the ability to shake the dock of Lisbon, the commercial capital of the mainland. It was the river dock in the city of Lisbon, the commercial capital of the mainland. It was said that even the empire was quite powerful A large caravan with such status can only respectfully wait for permission from the dock in Lisbon to disembark. Sometimes if you want to enter the inland dock, you often need to wait in line for two or three days.

Whoever can land at the Lisbon Pier the fastest is already proof of the strength of the Chamber of Commerce, not to mention that there are powerful businessmen who can force the landing, but the joint blocking order from the terminal will make the other party regret their impulsiveness. Damn it, the joint ban order issued from Lisbon will make all imperial ports and docks refuse to dock. For a chamber of commerce, a ban order is equivalent to completely cutting off the future! How long had that woman been there, ten minutes or twenty minutes? How could it be possible to have the port authority send the permit so quickly? It should be that I have been running around the dock for more than ten days in a row, and the other party just happened to meet him!

Then, Anthea came. After checking the Silver Wing Guard armband on Anthea's arm, Song Qian confirmed Anthea's identity. Anthea walked onto Song Qian's boat and returned to the dock together, watching the Song fleet go far away. Go, Tiernarant said behind the fat man with a solemn face, "Your Majesty, Miss Sokutus Stellan is afraid that there will be a lot of noise this time. Do you need the cooperation of the Lisbon Government Affairs Office?" "Your Majesty, Southern War Report!"

An imperial guard came up from behind, holding a military report that had just been sent from the south.

Scanning the battle report sent to him, Tillnarant's pupils shrank slightly and turned red.

Although he is a political officer, he can still know what red represents, which indicates that the war situation is extremely unfavorable, and in the south is a hundred thousand imperial army led by the former Nord general Salton. This former Nord general has always been known for his mental toughness. , is known for his perseverance, but even this famous Nord general known as the Broken Lion sent such a military report, which is enough to show how dangerous the situation in the south is! "So that's it. No wonder the Martin Liga people want to kill the crown prince to attract us. In fact, they have secretly colluded with the south of the mountain. The Kalisu army in the south was ambushed by the Martin Liya army in the dense forest. The entire army collapsed. Thor Although Dun has led the imperial army southward to Sun Valley, facing Martin's fang army and 300,000 Anser people, it is still difficult!

The fat man glanced at the battle report, then handed it to Tiernarant, curled his lips slightly, sighed and said, "Now you know why I asked you to come to Lisbon in such a hurry. It's because I know Martin Sharptooth, and he must be here." He will give the Kalisu people an unforgettable attack at a critical moment to avenge the war decades ago! "

Calisu Kingdom, Biyang Valley

As the sun sets in the west, it leans closely to the west of the Longji Mountains, with its back to the mountains and the vast expanse of dense forest, staring down at it with eager eyes. The remaining materials from the original construction of the Southern Wilderness Wall by the Kalisu people were piled on the fortifications of Biyang Valley. To a certain extent, Biyang Valley was even better than the Southern Wilderness Wall.

The entire pass wall is almost entirely made of huge granite stones, which exudes a shocking light under the golden sunset.

This is the choke point from the Southern Wilderness Wall to the capital of Kalisu. Years of construction have made Biyang Valley’s offensive no weaker than that of the Southern Wilderness Wall. On the contrary, in some places, Biyang Valley is dozens of times stronger than the Southern Wilderness Wall. The Southern Wilderness Wall, which has been plagued by wars for many years, is even stronger because Biyang Valley has its own reclamation land. For fields, military camps, and urban areas with more than 30,000 people, there is no need to rely on anyone for logistics. Unlike the Southern Wilderness Wall, once the food supply is cut off, the only way to evacuate is the 100,000-strong army. Biyang Valley not only has good logistics, but soldiers can be recruited from urban areas at any time

Behind three strong defensive walls, the houses on both sides of the street are small individual villas with pointed roofs, plain white walls, and colorful windows with green plants climbing on the walls. They live in the city. The Kalisu people did not care about the battle outside the wall. Anyway, the Kalisu people believed that this wall could not be conquered. However, with the Southern Wilderness Wall in the south being conquered, the Great Wall A large number of Kalisu civilians poured in, and the Biyang Valley was suddenly overcrowded. At the top of the Biyang Valley pass, the flag hanging was changed from the Kalisu army to the imperial eagle flag. This sudden change made the siege even more difficult. The Anse army in Biyang Valley stopped attacking. "What is going on? Doesn't it mean that the empire will not go south when the situation is unclear? So what is in front of you?"

The Anse people also asked the Martin Liya people angrily. At first, the Martin Liya people patted their chests to ensure that the empire would not go south quickly. But now, the empire is suddenly stuck in the throat of Biyang Valley. No matter how bold the Anse people are, , nor is he so big that he has just crossed the Hanlu Mountain and entered the Kalisu Forest, and he is not ready to call the empire before he has a firm foothold. "The empire's move to the south is expected, and it did not intervene in the battle of the Southern Wilderness Wall. What do you have to panic about?" The middle-aged man from Martin Liya's reply made Anse think angrily. He wanted to vomit blood, showed a handsome face and said with a smile, "Don't you think this is an opportunity to become famous throughout the Oparo Continent?"

The Ansers requested negotiations with the Empire;

The negotiation place is in Biyang Valley. In a villa in the town behind Biyang Valley, the marble floor is a little old, and the stains in some places have not been removed. The granite stones inlaid on the walls are also mottled and unsightly. The whole piece is dark black and has long decorative wood lines made of golden sandalwood. It can be seen that the original The decoration was extravagant, but now it has cracked. Some places are obviously black with mold. The roof is very white without any stains, but the surrounding wooden ceiling decorations have also cracked as if they are about to fall down at any time. The hall is lit by hundreds of candles. The lights are bright, very bright, illuminating the upper and lower halls of the villa dazzlingly.

"We have no intention of being enemies of the empire. We agree to use the capital of Kalisu as the dividing line. The area north of the capital belongs to the empire, and the area south of the capital belongs to Anse."

The Anse representative who came to negotiate slowly focused his eyes on a huge portrait hanging on the fireplace. It was a thin general with a tall and straight posture. However, the face of the representative of the Anse people did not look scornful. Instead, it became very solemn, and there was even a look of hatred in his eyes. The person in this portrait is Antila, the most famous marshal in the history of the Kingdom of Calisu. The battle where the Ansers were most likely to break through the Southern Wilderness Wall fell short because of this Antilla. It took more than twenty years for Anser to regain his strength. Times have changed and people have changed. The Anser people finally broke through the Southern Wilderness Wall. Carisu has also existed in name only. Now, in this most powerful place, It is ironic to say that the famous General Callisu came to his study to discuss the carving up of Callisu, but that is how the country is.

"South of Biyang Valley, we can hand it over to Anse, but nothing else is possible."

Representatives from the empire stated that it was impossible to retreat to the capital of Calisu. In fact, both sides knew very well that if the empire went to war with the Anser people, the only people who would really benefit would be the Martinliya people. The Anser people crossed the Southern Wilderness Wall, and in one breath Occupying most of the southern part of Anse, it urgently needs time to stabilize the battle. When it comes to fruition, they naturally do not want to directly clash with the empire, which is known as the continent's largest military power. However, the empire hurriedly went south from the royal capital to fight to the death against 300,000 Ansers for the Kalisu people. For the empire, It's quite worthless. It's just like this that both parties have the opportunity to sit down.

"Is it just south of Biyang Valley? I'm afraid it's difficult to satisfy people." Representative Anse smiled bitterly. This middle-aged Anse man has a fairly tall figure, and his skin has turned into a dark bronze color. At first glance, you can tell that he is a ruthless person who fights all the time. His face didn't seem to be very good, a little dark red, his breathing was a little short, and there were red threads in his eyes that couldn't be concealed.

Fierce fighting continued for several days and nights, alternating between pursuit and fierce battle, with almost no time for rest.

But that's why he still came on behalf of the Anser people. This is what the representatives of the empire paid attention to. A rising force must have its rising capital and considerable talent reserves. From the Anser in front of him, It can be seen from the representative of the Se people that although he looks a little rough, he is not mediocre. If the generals among the Anse people are all of this level, it is not difficult to understand that the Anse army can defeat the lifeless Kalisu army. ,

"Give up the Southern Wilderness Wall so that Anse tribes can enter the north for trade. This should allow you to go back and explain." The representative of the empire looked calm, tapped his finger on the table, and said pointedly, "In fact, even if we give it up again, Having more land for you is not necessarily a good thing. I believe you should be able to understand the meaning of this sentence. Sometimes if you suddenly get too many benefits, it will be easier for problems to arise during the division."

"What do you mean by your Excellency? I understand." The representative of the Anse people was stunned for a moment, showed a hint of surprise, and said with a faint smile, "It seems that the empire is very clear about our situation. It is indeed the case. I am telling the truth. This time I came to negotiate with the Empire because the internal disputes have begun. In fact, this is not a secret that can be concealed, and I believe that the Empire does not have much interest in continuing southward. There is another one beside you and me. Where’s the Martin Liya man, isn’t he?”

"Haha, you are indeed a smart man," the empire representative said with a smile.
