Main text 1308 Battle of the Eastward Advance (IV)

"Back then, Her Royal Highness the Princess massacred 70,000 Slavs in the northwest, which even caused shock in the entire northwest region. Her resolute style was awarded the title of Iron Princess by the late emperor. If she were thrown into the barbarian area, it might have miraculous effects." Regarding the hesitation of young people, Presna Fagui unexpectedly agreed, and said, "Since the Slavs are not good, your family can consider other regions, such as Central Libya, Gangfei, or the Falcon Empire that just jumped out. Anyway, as long as it is not in the empire Within the scope of influence"

"Even if His Majesty the Emperor finds out later, he won't be too grudgey. After all, marriage with barbarians is almost the same as self-exile. Maybe your family will re-enter the inner circle of the empire because of this."

"What you said seems to make sense." The young man's eyes lit up, and he rolled his fingers along the rim of the water glass, and said thoughtfully, "You are going to get married anyway, so it's best to find someone who can maximize your benefits."

Presnaff saw some changes in him and said cautiously, "It's a pity that among these targets, Central Libya is obviously not good. The empire has just suffered a disastrous defeat at the hands of the eastward marching army. Now the marriage is different from surrendering to the enemy. It is not a fight with the empire." They have been together for hundreds of years, and although there have been several royal marriages, everyone knows that It was just a stop-gap measure to delay time. That time, the fight didn't start right away. Now His Majesty the Emperor has obviously taken up the idea of ​​Gang Fei again. Marrying His Highness the Princess is equivalent to giving away a hostage. His Majesty the Emperor will definitely not worry about the safety of His Highness the Princess. , maybe they will immediately order a full-scale attack as soon as they receive the news.”

"His Majesty the Emperor can really do what you said." The young man agreed with shame. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with an embarrassed look, then raised his head in confusion and looked at Pres who suddenly stopped speaking. Take the method

"You seem to have missed one country. What is the Falcon Empire? Why didn't I know there was such an empire around the empire?"

"The Falcon Empire, also known as the Falcon Kingdom, emerged from across the northwest sea recently. The empire is just the name of these barbarians themselves." Presnaff smiled disdainfully, which meant that it was like a big city. wealthy businessmen. When commenting on the absurdity of a country rich man calling his thatched house a "palace", he said

"Actually, your family should know something about it. Last year, the Normans suddenly claimed to have discovered a large island called Salander, and plundered a large amount of wealth and slaves from there, which now belongs to the Falcon Empire."

"Normandy on the Northwest Sea?"

A flash of surprise flashed across the young man's face, and he sneered at the corner of his mouth, "Are you talking about that idiot Kavibode? There is indeed such a thing. It is said that he sent 300 so-called captured beautiful trophies to Kyoto, and he still wanted to rely on them. This achievement is used to run for the office of governor of the Norton region. Although I have to admit that the quality of the trophies is still very high, and many families are very satisfied."

"It's a pity that he finally chose the wrong person to seek refuge with."

There was a shameless look on the young man's face before he continued, "The empire has always attached great importance to the achievements of territorial expansion. Although it is only an island, but in the context of the failure of the eastward strategy, if he is looking for We, the Julius family, might have been very reluctant to recommend him to become the governor of the region. Unfortunately, he looked down upon others and thought that our Julius family had lost power and actually joined the army of Minister of War Horkels. "

"I've also heard about this. It's said that this guy also showed his face in a very high-profile party at the faction banquet hosted by the Minister of War, Horkels. He considered himself to be a member of Horkels' faction."

Presnaffa said with a gloomy expression, "As the largest force on the northwest coast, Cavibode's move is a betrayal of your family."

"Who says it's not the case? When my brother heard the news, he was so angry that he broke the golden scepter presented by Chief Staff and ordered to kill all the tribe of 20,000 people. Even if the other party was willing to become the empire's Slaves are useless." The young man curled his lips in disdain and said angrily.

"He also didn't want to think about the eastward strategy led by the Horkels family, which had just caused His Majesty to suffer the humiliation of ceding territory and paying compensation. The blood of one hundred thousand imperial warriors has not yet cooled, how could His Majesty the Emperor hand over such an important Northwest Sea to them again? And this time Horkels asked Normandy to send 30,000 troops to privately participate in the war against the south. It was obvious that he wanted to make a big contribution in front of the Jimny family who was responsible for the southern strategy.

"This practice of grabbing food has obviously aroused public outrage."

The young man took a deep breath and continued, "So his recommendation for regional consul was directly rejected by His Majesty the Emperor. It seems that even His Majesty the Emperor doesn't like this kind of duplicitous guy. The family has long been looking for opportunities, so... Let’s clean up this northwestern dog who doesn’t understand current affairs.”

"The northwest dog who doesn't understand current affairs, hehe, it's really an apt metaphor." Presnaff sneered at the corner of his mouth. In the eyes of the empire's wealthy families, these vassals outside the empire are indeed like watchdogs.

In front of the powerful Julius family in the northwest region, the status of the Normans was roughly the same. But soon, Presnaff shrugged and said that it is no longer necessary. "

"What's wrong? That old guy is dead?" The fingers playing with the teacup on the young man's face left the edge of the smooth teacup, with obvious reluctance.

"Not dead, probably about the same." Presnafa smiled nonchalantly, a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes, and said, "The Principality of Normandy has become a false name. Without a principality, even the Netherlands where he took refuge would Coles won't pay attention to him, so I really want to know what your family is going to do with him? Let's put it this way, Cavibode is in the county town of Beyond, and it's just downstairs."

Presnaff stopped speaking and suppressed the smile on his face, "I believe this is the main purpose of your family sending Your Excellency. In such a chaotic situation, if the Julius family still expresses its position, The other principalities really think that your family has become quiet in the past five years."

"It turns out that your Excellency has already seen the fire clearly."

A trace of solemnity flashed across the young man's face, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. How could the guy who had been able to replace the Price family in the northwest for more than ten years be a mediocre person?

"Even if I owe the Pres family a favor, let's deal with Cavibode."

The young man neither denied nor admitted, but looked fiercely and said with fear, "Of course he is a person who changes factions without authorization according to the tradition of the empire. Even if the country is gone and the land is gone, as long as he is still there, Buried alive, skinned, or burned, he won't be able to survive anyway."

"The candidate for the governor of the Norton region..." Presnaffa's voice stopped, obviously pointing.

"Does your family have any suggestions?" This time it was the young man's turn to ask,

"Actually, I'm quite optimistic about the Falcon Empire. No matter what, as the princess, she should at least be the head of a country."

Presnaff looked serious and said word by word, "And being able to defeat the Normans within a few months is enough to prove the power of this kingdom.

If your family does not want to be forced to draw troops from the northwest front, marriage should be a good choice."

"I admit that what you said is very reasonable, but I want to know, if you recommend the Falcon Empire so highly, is it your own intention or the intention of your family?" The young man suddenly raised his head and asked with bright eyes, his eyes filled with emotion. The chill is still lingering.
