Realm of Power

The Empire has taken action. How will the south of Eero react? With the Imperial Minister of State Hu Keqili appearing in the north of Eero and moving towards the capital of Eero with thunderous force, the empire's layout in this war will be revealed. It was just revealed in front of all the Oparo monarchs. Compared with it, even the Battle of Sun Fortress that attracted everyone's attention some time ago suddenly seemed to have lost its due color.

"I didn't expect that the real target of the Imperial Minister of Affairs, Hu Keqili, turned out to be the southern part of Elero. All of us were deceived by the Imperial Emperor!" King Owitt of Rila said with a helpless smile at the corner of his mouth, under the afternoon sunshine. , on the ridge in the distance, where hundreds of thousands of troops were fighting in the Sun Fortress not long ago, now only sections of broken walls can be seen.

Among the people standing behind Owitt, Sulag, who played a decisive role in the Battle of Sun Fortress, had no joy on his face. He paused in his voice, took a deep breath and said, "Although I feel like I am being ridiculed, but In the final negotiation in the morning, the Empire awarded the Sun Fortress to us after all. Your Majesty did not see the extremely ugly face of Libeia, the representative of the Kingdom of Biang. He was afraid that Biang would wait for an opportunity and launch another attack on the Sun. The Battle for the Eye Fortress”

The soft breeze blows, the flowers and trees in the garden rustle, the vast pool surface has gentle ripples, and there is a feeling of laziness in the afternoon. The huge lake with blue waves like a mirror is like one body. Close your eyes and you can listen to the peaceful world. The most beautiful sound of water waves. Because too many people died, and in order to avoid the danger of the plague, even King Owitt of Rila had to move the headquarters of the Rila army to Netali, seventeen miles south of the fortress. fort

This is a castle to the south of the Fortress of the Sun. The terrain is close to the hills. The silver-wrapped oak roof and gilt-decorated door shine brightly in the sun, making the high and low spire pavilions on both sides more solemn. The magnificence, if Sullac hadn't revealed that this was the secret summer palace of the Biang royal family, The palace is located. Regarding the operations and development of the area north of the Sun Fortress, most of the time it is determined in this picturesque castle. Even King Owitt of Rila would never have thought that during several wars, The military location known as "Bion's Fore" is the fortress in front of you.

The chirping of birds in the trees not only does not damage the serene atmosphere of the castle's isolation, but also doubles its sense of emptiness and sanctity.

"Your Majesty, the troops that invaded Héro have been withdrawn, but the Biang army is still following behind. The generals all think that taking this opportunity, it is better to give the Biang people a good beating!"

A general from the Kingdom of Rilla stood up and said. This general was about thirty years old, with a slender figure and energetic eyes. This battle established the advantage of the Kingdom of Harvey for at least thirty years. As for the Biang people, they refused to accept it. Who cares! The Fortress of the Sun was defeated by Rayla's army with swords. What could the Biang people do if they refused to accept it? Another fight? Don't be kidding, this time the Biang people not only lost the northern barrier of the Sun Fortress, but more than half of the area was attacked and harassed by the Rila army, and tens of thousands of elites died in the Sun Fortress. , the domestic economy also suffered a heavy blow

Now facing the final judgment of the empire, the country of Biang has been in turmoil. However, in front of the imperial envoy Plais, they dare not even fart. After more than a hundred years, the arrogant Biang people finally paid their dues. The price, as the victorious side, is actually not entirely exciting for the Rila people, because the dust of the Sun Fortress battle has settled, but about the final Whoever owns the Fortress of the Sun must abide by the empire's decision, which makes all the generals involved in the battle feel ashamed. The Kingdom of Rilla and the Kingdom of Beang devoted all their efforts to the battlefield of the Fortress of the Sun, and their respective total casualties They have all reached the level of 100,000, but in the end, when it comes to the ownership of Taiyan Fortress, it is still nothing more than a word from the empire.

Ten years ago, this would have been unthinkable

Even five years ago, when people in Ruila were at their peak, there was no need to look at anyone’s face.

But in just two years, the empire has completely mastered Central Europe Barrow. In this confrontation, it seemed that there was no performance at all, but the empire's general Salon led the 80,000 imperial army to watch eagerly at Castle Rock. Geographically, it is located exactly between the southern part of Hérault and Biang. It is believed that as long as one party expresses its dissatisfaction with the imperial ruling, Salon's army will cross the border and attack the other party front and back, completely annihilating the dissatisfied party. Lose,

Under the sword, those who do not bow their heads will lose their heads.

After the bloody battle at the Sun Fortress, neither the Rilla Kingdom nor the Bion Kingdom could fight against the empire's army. King Owitt of Rilla knew this before launching the attack, but he still chose to use 20,000 soldiers. The blood of the youth army was exchanged for a promise from the emperor. After a hard fight, the Rila people, who even pushed forward the domestic reserve army, won the final victory, but it also completely ended the possibility of the Kingdom of Harvey becoming the leader of Barrow in Central Europe. However, although Bion looked dissatisfied, Convinced, but under the sword of the empire, what else can it be but silence! Is it really possible to wait for the imperial army and the Kingdom of Harvey to destroy the Biang people?

"Does the imperial envoy Plais have any other indications, such as when will the imperial troops in Castle Rock be withdrawn?" King Owitt of Rilla withdrew his eyes from the turquoise lake.

"The imperial envoy Plais said that the empire will still station a certain number of troops in Fort Locke, but there is no need for Rila to worry." A minister in charge of the negotiations stood up with an ugly face.

"Haha, don't worry about it. The emperor of the empire used my Rila and more than 100,000 lives of the Biang people to complete the deception. It is definitely not as simple as going south, and the feeling of being held by the empire with a knife on the neck is definitely uncomfortable. Although the Empire has determined that the Sun Fortress belongs to the Kingdom of Rila, as long as the imperial army does not evacuate from Castle Rock for one day, the Kingdom of Rila will still be a lamb to be slaughtered under the sword of the Empire," another Minister of Rila said angrily.

The minister in charge of the negotiation looked embarrassed, but could not say a word. Even a blind person could see that the Empire was stationing heavy troops in Castle Rock to target the Kingdom of Rila. However, the Empire did not withdraw its troops from Castle Rock, and the Kingdom of Rila So what can be done? Castle Rock is no longer the Castle Rock it used to be. The purge of the Medici family has completely destroyed the situation that Rilla had spent decades setting up. All members of the Medici family who were pro-Rilla faction were either killed or imprisoned. And those who secretly communicated with the Kingdom of Rilla were also frightened by this great purge. How could they dare to have any relationship with the Kingdom of Rilla? As a result, Rilla no longer had any influence in Castle Rock!

"Actually, I think that the heavy troops of the empire staying in Fort Locke may not be specifically targeting us, Rilla. Just after what you said, the Biang people are still gathering strength to prepare for a counterattack, right?" Owitt waved his hand to the ministers, Said with twinkling eyes

"What do you mean by your Majesty's words?" Upon hearing Owitt's words, the faces of several generals and ministers of the Kingdom of Ruila tightened. Realizing the meaning of their lord's words, the expressions of several ministers and generals changed. Just after the negotiations hosted by the empire ended, Rilla and Bian Ang started fighting again. Isn't this a naked slap in the face of the empire? The 80,000 imperial army is not a vegetarian. How could it be possible to sit back and watch such an insult to the empire happen?

"What are you afraid of? For example, if the Biang army is pressing on our retreating troops step by step, and our army fully abides by the agreement, if the Biang people can't stand it anymore and attack our army first, then our army will also fight back. There is nothing to blame." Owitt's right hand hit the rock fence hard, and a smile flashed across his slightly inverted triangular eyes.

"And please don't forget, who is leading the 80,000 Emperor Corps now?"

"Your Majesty, what do you mean? The one who is leading the Imperial Army now is of course the Imperial General Salon." General Rilla said subconsciously. As soon as he said these words, his eyes suddenly lit up and he reacted quickly. , yes, if it is Salon, then this battle is really okay A dozen of them were beaten. When the Biang people suddenly raised a flag of rebellion in Barro, Central Europe, they slapped Salon in the face. How could this important general of the empire, who was famous for his violent temper and murderous nature, be willing to swallow such a breath? I guess if It was not the emperor's order. This imperial general had already taken action against the Beon people.

"I personally think that the Emperor's decision to leave Salon in Barro in Central Europe was intentional, because as far as I know, the Emperor is a very stingy person, and the fact that the Biang people raised a flag of rebellion is absolutely unacceptable. Maybe he let it go so easily. Without the support of the Sun Fortress, if the Biang people can't see the form clearly, then the emperor probably can't either. Do you mind if we crush the heads of the Biang people under our feet?" Sula took a deep breath and said slowly with a bit of mockery in his voice. He played an important role in the Battle of Sun Fortress and proved himself. His loyalty has now been appointed by Owitt as the Deputy Minister of Military Affairs, and Sulla's ability in strategic planning has also been affirmed by the generals of Rilla.

"Yes, as long as the Biang people take the initiative to attack, everything will go smoothly. I don't believe that the imperial general Salon, who hates the Biang people to the core, will help the Biang people." Owitt nodded to express his approval of Sulag.

The Kingdom of Rila and the Kingdom of Biang have been at war with each other for so many years. It is absolutely impossible to vent all their anger in a war. Moreover, the Biang people obviously have no intention of fulfilling the armistice agreement. They are mobilizing everywhere. The Ministry of Military Affairs stayed up all night, brightly lit, and carried various orders. There is an endless stream of messenger cavalry. The Kingdom of Biang has been peaceful for so many years under the protection of the Sun Fortress, and the accumulated capital is also very important. In the face of the surprise attack by Rila's army, it was still able to mobilize more than 200,000 troops to participate in the war. , almost forcibly defeated our Ruila Army.

If it weren't for the head of the Biang border army, Isha Kelnan, to give up participating in the war under coercion, and if it weren't for the fact that the Rilla Kingdom had penetrated the Biang Kingdom for many years and predicted the Biang army's counterattack strategy in advance, it would have been almost impossible to win this battle. Impossible. It can be seen that these more than a hundred years of peace have given the Kingdom of Biang not only a weakened combat power, but also a terrifying potential for war mobilization.

In order to regain its position as the leader of Barro in Central Europe, the Biang Kingdom has been preparing for more than a hundred years. Now it is like a vicious beast that has been bitten. How can it be possible to swallow this breath? The Biang people have been proud for more than a hundred years. , it can't be changed by a disastrous defeat, otherwise we wouldn't be mobilizing troops to prepare for counterattack now.

Before the war, he completely ignored the authority of the empire, and after the war, he showed contempt for the empire. If it were other imperial generals who tolerated it for a while, it was Saron!

At dusk in the afternoon when the air is dry, even though the decoration of the room looks luxurious, it still gives people an out-of-place feeling compared to the yellow color outside the window. The thin Poros stood leaning against the wall with his hands behind his back. Looking around with eyes, finally His eyes fell on the middle-aged priest who was examining a report. This middle-aged priest had no hair on his head. The skin exposed on his sleeves was light black. The red lines on the cuffs were coiled into an eye-like shape. The spiral pattern is the symbol of the Red Dragon Palace in Aden

"So..." Boros, who was standing against the wall, spoke, his voice loud and penetrating. "The Sun Fortress was finally awarded to the Rila people. Although the Beorn people couldn't swallow this breath, they shouldn't either. Will choose to call back in a short time”

"That's such a pity. I also hoped that the Biang people could share some of the pressure for us. The 80,000 imperial army went south, and the leader of the army was Hu Keqili, the first general of the empire. The southern princes have not yet fought. It's already starting to waver." The middle-aged priest closed the report in his hand and stood up from his seat with a slight frown on his eyebrows. He was tall and sturdy, making people feel full of energy and vitality.

"Will it affect the overall strategy?" In front of this middle-aged priest, Poros, who looked extremely tough on the outside, had a rare look of respect on his face.

"That's not true. As long as the records in the temple are correct, and what the Aero royal family said is true, and the Eye of God is really given to the empire, then even if all the princes in the southern part of Aero turn against us, we will not You can also inflict divine punishment on the empire."

The middle-aged priest smiled contemptuously, and there seemed to be some kind of luster flashing in his deep eyes. There was a bit of longing and excitement in his tone, "Even if an emperor has no tricks, he can even deceive everyone, but when the coming In front of the Kingdom of God on earth, what can even the emperor and God do? How can mortals fight against gods!"

"Then we still follow the original plan?" Boros took a deep breath and clenched his fingers suddenly. The empire used the Sun Fortress War as a cover to quietly arrive in the north of Aero. He would not have thought that the Aden Red Dragon The palace had already used the entire southern Aero princes as bait, deliberately luring the empire southward to attract the attraction of the empire. The real fatal blow was actually the northern part of the empire! As long as it succeeds, even if the empire does not fall apart, it will at least be like Eero back then, unable to escape from the invasion of yellow sand for eighty years.
