Realm of Power

"Investigate the Navy of the Falcon Kingdom with all your strength!" The order conveyed from the Southern Commander's Office set the entire Southern Commander's intelligence department into action. Intelligence officer Riels had just finished attending the meeting and immediately sent all his subordinates, large and small, into action. All the heads were called, and in front of his subordinates, the handsome young commander said with a serious expression, "We are summoned here just for one thing."

Spreading out the documents in his hand, he read in a deep voice, "The Commander-in-Chief has ordered that from now on, at all costs, we must find out the details of the Falcon Navy in the shortest possible time. From the model of the warship to the name of the captain, we must thoroughly understand it." Investigate clearly!”

"Falcon Navy?" The subordinates were stunned for a moment when they heard the unfamiliar name.

When did the Commander-in-Chief start to pay attention to the Barbarian Navy? Don’t look at the Falcon Navy running rampant in the northwest, but most intelligence personnel believe that the Falcon Navy’s strength is at most a regional fleet. As the Commander-in-Chief of the Southwest, Intelligence personnel, most of their attention is on the army. Even when it comes to the navy, it is a role like the Congolese Navy. Who would take a small regional fleet seriously?

"I believe the order is very clear. You heard it correctly. The commander-in-chief is talking about the Falcon Navy on the northwest coast!" Riels glanced at the slightly surprised expressions of everyone, and repeated it in an emphasized tone.

"Sir, with all due respect, such a regional fleet is really..." Some people expressed confusion about this.

"Yes, why do we need to bother with a problem that can be solved by the direct fleet?" Some people were whispering.

"Quiet!" Riels made a solemn gesture, and the crowd immediately became quiet. Everyone's eyes were focused on him. Riels said, "Maybe everyone doesn't know yet. In order to implement your lord's strategy of marching north to the northwest, The fleet directly under our Southwest Commander-in-Chief has stationed at Atwood Military Port, located at the throat of the Northwest Sea, four days ago."

"Really, that's great!" The intelligence officer's face started to get excited.

Rails continued, "Logically speaking, the stationing of the direct-affiliated fleet should make the opponent's arrogance somewhat restrained. However, just the night before yesterday, the direct-affiliated fleet encountered an unknown large-scale attack in Atwood Port, and the fleet's sailors were injured or killed." More than 1,500 people and more than six battleships were lost."

"What!" The intelligence officers below looked at each other with horrified expressions. The fleet directly under their control was attacked. Thousands of people were also lost. Everyone felt the seriousness of this incident. Everyone knew that the Commander-in-Chief was determined to advance northward. He sent his fleet to advance northward in advance, probably with the intention of suppressing the opponent's navy. No one knew think. The opponent's counterattack will come so fast and fiercely, with more than 1,500 casualties. More than 6 warships were damaged. Could it be that a frontal naval battle broke out? Everyone's hearts were filled with shock and confusion.

"No wonder, I feel quite uneasy this morning!" A handsome intelligence officer whispered to the companion next to him with a filial look on his face. His handsome appearance reminded people of the "cream boy" very easily. word,

"This morning?" the companion next to him responded coldly. "She must have come from Lord Anleker's house. His coquettish and show-off wife probably didn't know the news about the attack on her husband's fleet. That's why you have an uneasy feeling of guilt'

"How do you know?" The intelligence officer was stunned for a moment.

"It's because you know that as long as this news is sent back, you will no longer be happy. The fleet will form a hostile attitude towards the intelligence department, and you must have been noticed by them long ago!" The companion said with a sneer.

"That was a sacrifice I had to make in order to obtain the required information!" The young man looked embarrassed.

"Get information from your fleet officer's wife. It's really an efficient and good way!" The companion curled his lips disdainfully. "But this time the fleet was attacked, I think the wife must also have mixed emotions." ! "

"An Leier will be sad!" The companion's ridicule made the young man stop talking.

The surveillance of the fleet is a secret order from Commander Katja. The fleet directly under the Southwest Commander has 8 giant imperial warships and 15 large warships. It is equivalent to the size of a large imperial fleet and is stationed at the naval port in the southwest all year round, so the family members of naval officers are also in the southwest in order to keep track of the mood of naval officers at all times. The Intelligence Department followed Algernonga's secret order and kept an eye on the movements within the directly affiliated fleet.

"This news makes the Lord Commander very angry!"

Rails knew what his subordinates were thinking. He stopped his voice, glanced sternly at the subordinates below who couldn't respond, punched the table with his fist, and said sternly with bloodshot eyes.

"Everyone, it's time to wake up. This incident is a shame to our intelligence department. As the intelligence department that serves as the eyes and ears of the Commander-in-Chief, we were so unaware of such an attack that we were unaware of it beforehand. But afterwards, we actually We still don’t know what the other party did! If word spreads, we will be the laughing stock of the entire Southwest Territory.”

Riels stood at attention and gave a respectful military salute to everyone below. "For the reputation of the intelligence department and for the future of everyone, this is the only way this time. At any cost, by any means, by any means, we must do this." Find out the details of the Falcon Navy in the shortest possible time, from their battleships to their commanders, including the names and personalities of every captain!"

"Yes!" Everyone stood up, and the conference room rumbled with vibrations.

The operation of the Southwest Intelligence Department was carried out quickly. Under clear instructions, the personnel of the Intelligence Department traveled to the northwest coast area disguised as various people, including businessmen, refugees, lost wanderers, and simply disguised as sailors. , just drive the merchant ship over. The trade on the northwest coast is completely open. These merchant ships are routinely inspected and then released.

A large number of intelligence personnel entered and sent back a variety of intelligence, but most of the intelligence was meaningless. It only involved the construction of roads, bridges, and new cities on the northwest coast. It was really related to the navy. There are very few of them, most of them are the dictation of other people. The boats are very big, very long, very ugly, and ugly. If I had to give an evaluation, it would be "freak!"

"What is this! A bunch of idiots!"

This time's evolution. Under the personal command of Riels, looking at the reports collected over the past few days, he was so angry that he threw all the reports on the table on the ground. There was no way, the Falcon Navy's intelligence was highly confidential, although the Falcon Navy was extremely powerful. Northwest Coast, but few people can actually see the full view of naval battleships. There is a warning area within ten miles of the naval port.

The intelligence personnel of the Southwest Commander-in-Chief risked their lives to sneak into a military port. The appearance of the Dragon Tooth Battleship depicted at best only confirmed the rumors of "freaks". Even so, three intelligence personnel who sneaked into the military port were still arrested. Patrol caught. The military port did not pay attention at first.

Out of curiosity, there are always some strangers appearing evasively near the military port. The military port authorities are helpless about this. Under normal circumstances, they will lock people up for a few days after asking. To teach them a lesson, they released the people, but the obvious panic of the three intelligence officers revealed some abnormalities. In their minds, the barbarians on the northwest coast had slaughtered a million Normans, and they were a truly tyrannical and capricious race. , and I also heard that their barbarian king liked to roast human flesh and watched the patrol forcefully drag them to the warehouse of the military port.

Various rumors about the barbarians from the northwest flashed through the minds of the three of them. They like to kill people, eat living people, and even peel off whole human skins and hang them on the wall. Anyway, these guys are a group of devils. They probably dragged them to the warehouse. Just for peeling! The most timid one immediately shouted, "Don't peel me off, I'll tell you anything!"

"What did you just say?"

The patrol leader turned around and looked at him with a funny face. This stranger was really funny. Did he think he was going to take him back and skin him? Is it necessary to go to such trouble? He really wanted to skin him. It can be solved on the spot, these Oparo people are so stupid!

"Bring him out! I want to do it myself!"

The patrol leader decided to make a joke. He asked his subordinates to separate this man from the other two people and prepare to scare this guy alone. Patrolling is very boring, so it would be nice to have some fun.

"No, I won't go, I won't...!" The coward was so frightened that he shouted repeatedly, but was dragged out by the soldiers, kicking his legs and feet.

"Go to hell!" Seeing his companion's face turned pale with fright, another stranger suddenly shouted. When no one was paying attention, he suddenly pulled out a sharp dagger and stabbed the man from behind. The back of the companion with a pale face,

"Ah!" Amidst the screams, the timid intelligence officer screamed in pain, took a few steps forward, turned his head in disbelief, and looked at the bloody dagger behind him with bulging eyes. The companion said, "Coward! You should die!" The companion's face was covered in blood, holding a dagger, and his face was ferocious.

At this moment, the patrol leader who retired from the army and joined the navy was really a fool if he didn't understand. "Arrest them all! These people are spies!" The patrol leader's face changed drastically and he shouted loudly, but he was still a step too late. The assassin wiped his own neck with the pulled dagger, "For the Empire!" Like the assassin, another person also shouted a slogan, suddenly pulled out a short dagger and inserted it into his chest, and blood spattered. Cum on the patrol leader's face,

"Come here, search their bodies immediately." The patrol leader gritted his teeth and looked at the three corpses lying on the ground. It was so dangerous that he almost made a big mistake. He quickly reported the news of the spy found in the military port.

Admiral Dostronquet saw the seriousness of it. Although the purpose of these spies was unknown, the words "for the empire" shouted by one of them already showed that the identity of these people should be from Gaul, or from the southwest. In the direction, Dostelenko felt that the southwest was the most likely. He had just tricked the fleet directly under the Southwest Commander in Atwood, and it was normal for the other party to immediately counterattack like this.

"It seems that someone is watching! Once the navy's intelligence is leaked, it will be troublesome!" Dostelenko took a few steps back and forth in front of his desk, looked hesitant for a while, and then shouted out the door. "Come here, prepare a Dragon Tooth Ship. I'm going to Normandy to meet His Majesty!"

When Dostelenko arrived at Fatty's office, it was already the afternoon of the second day. He didn't bother to rest, and even couldn't wait for the adjutant's reporting procedure. Dostelenko walked directly to the second floor of the office building. ,

The fat man's office is usually at the end of the corridor. The captain of the guard on duty stopped him halfway in the corridor and said, "Lord Dostronkai, what are you going to do? You should know the consequences of disturbing His Majesty's nap!"

"Captain Gregory!" Dostronkai expressed his feelings for the kindness of the captain of the guard on duty, and said firmly, "I also know that now is not the time, but I have an urgent military report from the navy! If His Majesty wants to punish me, I I can only bear it with my own strength.”

"If that's really the case, I have a way!" the guard captain known as Gregory said with a solemn expression.

"What can I do?"

"Your Majesty is going to hold a wedding banquet with the Julius family in three days, you know!" Gregory said

"Yes. I have also been notified." Dustronkai nodded.

"If your Majesty came here to express congratulations to Your Majesty, you were so happy that you forgot about it in the excitement, or maybe Your Majesty will not blame Your Majesty...!" Gregory touched his nose, wanting to Stop talking

"Thank you, I understand." Dostronkai looked stunned. This method is indeed a good one. At this moment, the door of the fat man's room opened unexpectedly from the inside. The fat man came out wearing a black uniform with some disheveled hair, indicating that he had just woken up.

"Your Majesty!" The two of them quickly stood up straight and saluted together.

"Well? Dostelenko? Why are you here?" Fatty raised his head. I saw the captain of the Guards on duty, and then I saw Dustrunkai standing next to me. I was surprised for a moment.

"I heard that His Majesty was very happy, so he came back specially!" Dustronkai responded with a serious expression.

"In that case, then come with me for a walk outside." The fat man waved to him.

He also wanted to know about the recent developments in the navy,

"Yes. Your Majesty!" Dostelenko nodded happily and followed the fat man down the office building.

This is a nice villa. The large garden at the back is where Yag Helen and Fei Hongrui live. Fatty lives in the office area in front. He occasionally goes there to look for Princess Lud. Unfortunately, Fei Hongrui always avoids it deliberately and is confused. emotion. In a few days, there will be a new owner in the garden. He doesn’t know how embarrassed he will feel when facing Crimson Red Rui. Fatty wants to explain in person, but he can’t see the person. He knows that his beloved The person is in the backyard. But he always couldn't see it. This melancholy mood made Fatty feel very depressed.

Looking up at the sky, the fat man stopped in front of a flower bed in front of a big tree in the front yard.

"Tell me, the real purpose of your coming back!" The fat man patted the ashes on the flower bed, sat down on the edge of the flower bed, and looked at the sky in the distance. Silks of white clouds were floating in the sky like cotton. It was a rare good weather. The winter sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves, creating a peaceful atmosphere

"I heard that His Majesty was very happy, so I specially..." Before Dostelenko could finish his words, he was interrupted by the fat man waving his hand.

"Stop talking nonsense. You are not the kind of person who likes to work hard to please your boss." The fat man waved his hand to him and curled his lips slightly. "Is the Southwest already ready to make a move? I'm glad you can come. No one dares." Said that the other party would not choose to attack from the sea first, and the other party's command Officials are not ordinary people. Once you realize that the stability of the northwest coast is actually based on the strength of the navy, then the first person the opponent has to deal with is you. I must remind you that on the shoulders of you, the Minister of the Navy, But shouldering the burden of the entire northwest coast region."

"We found a spy outside the military port!" Dostronkai didn't dare to hide it and told the truth.

"Oh, a spy was discovered? Can you determine which party it is from?" The fat man's face began to grow serious. "This is not a good sign. It means that someone has already started to target our navy!"

"It's not certain yet, but I suspect it's coming from the southwest!" Dostronkai nodded and reported to Fatty that he had just attacked the fleet directly under the Southwest Commander.

"Haha, using the current to attack the port is really what you did. If you speculate like this, the southwest direction is indeed the most likely!" The fat man chuckled, his eyes flashed with approval, and he sighed. "Now The local management on the northwest coast is in chaos. Even if there is a spy infiltrated, it will be very difficult to detect it in a short time. It is really a headache, so just ignore it! "

"Your Majesty, if you let things go like this, I am worried that the navy's intelligence will eventually be exposed!" Dostelenko became a little anxious and expressed his worries.

"In that case, let's expose it to Southwest!" The fat man smiled nonchalantly,

"Reveal it to Southwest? Then... then..." Dostelenko's face turned red and he was speechless for a moment. If he hadn't been so familiar with the fat man, he would have really suspected that the Falcon in front of him was a fake.

"Haha, I see you're in a hurry, it's just a joke!" The fat man chuckled. "Since Southwest is determined to go north from the sea, then give them a chance! You can send a smarter person to pretend that he can't withstand the temptation. , tell them all the information, such as how many Dragon Tooth warships we have on the coast, the number of sailors, etc. You can reveal the name of the commander bit by bit. Don’t forget to sell it for a good price. Oh, but the most important thing is to gain the other party’s trust.”

"Your Majesty means that we can use countermeasures!"

Dostronkai seemed to have thought of something, and the depression on his face was wiped away. This move was too clever. He used some worthless junk information to lure the enemy into the trap he designed step by step, and finally walked away. The point of no return, such a terrifying thought, is probably something only His Majesty Falcon can think of.
