Realm of Power

In the morning, a special guest visited Fatty. He looked at a request written on fine leather paper placed on his table, and opposite him, Julie, who was wearing a long black dress and shawl hair, looking like the legendary little witch. Strisa, the fat man frowned slightly. In the awkward atmosphere, Zhu Lilstrissa bowed deeply with a forlorn look and said softly, "My father's body collapsed after he returned from Gaul and Kyoto. Now he just wants to find a place to retire! As for the fifth legion... just please" Your Majesty watches them guard the Great Wall for the Empire for a year and allows them to choose whether to stay or not! "

"Free to choose whether to stay or go? This is impossible!"

The fat man shook his head with a gloomy face and said, "I accept Mr. Fuburg's kindness. Although the northwest is completely under the control of the empire, it does not mean that the influence of the Julius family has completely disappeared. What Mr. Fuburg can do The decision to avoid suspicion is indeed admirable, but allowing an armed military group to freely decide whether to stay or leave in the country , this is absolutely impossible. You must know that as many as 170,000 people migrated with the Fifth Army Corps that retreated from the Slavic areas. They are now placed on the line of the northern long wall. They are the main force of the empire's defense against the invasion of the long wall. The army of Tingren has appeared outside the long wall. This is not the time to talk about conditions such as freedom to go or stay. "

"Is it true that His Majesty is going to send them to fight against the Dongting people, as the rumors outside say?... They are all poor homeless people." Julius Teresa's pretty face turned red. Eagerly, he realized that he had let something slip, and his expression changed. Don't dare to say any more

"That's just a rumor!" Fatty denied it decisively, his resolute gaze not even stopping on the face of Julius Teresa across from him. "I have never weakened the Fifth Army too much because of my feelings towards Lord Fuburg. I still have respect. As for sending them to fight the Dongting people, I can only say that their responsibility is to protect the Long Wall. I will not order them to go outside the Long Wall. This is my answer. You can be satisfied. ! "

"Then the Julius family's request to move to the Southwest District..." "There is no problem with this request! I will order someone to buy a mansion with beautiful scenery in the Southwest District for Lord Fu Bao!" The fat man looked calm. nodded,

At the Battle of Rusty. The fat man already knew that Julius Forbaugh was seriously ill. Gaul Kyoto may also start to eradicate the Julius family at any time. It is for the above reasons that the fat man had to use Algernon Julia, a heavy bargaining chip, in exchange for Gaul Kyoto.

Because he knew that if Julius Forbaugh died in Kyoto in Gaul for no apparent reason. The original Fifth Army Corps stationed in the direction of the city wall was in danger of mutiny. For the Fifth Corps. Fatty just wants to digest them slowly, and the consequences of taking coercive actions are likely to cause uncontrollable situations, and Fatty believes that Julius Forbaugh is also aware of it. Under the current circumstances, they can no longer return outside the long wall, but Gaul will not accommodate them. Only the Falcon Empire can tolerate their existence.

"Then what if I come to the Southwest District with my father..." Julius Teresa, who has always been quiet, asked cautiously and tentatively in a low voice.

"You are the princess of the empire, and it is your right to act on the land of the empire!"

There was no expression on the fat man's face. He flipped the report on the table with his hands without raising his head. He answered very calmly and the atmosphere was a bit cold. They were a very strange couple. Ever since the fat man left Northwest, the relationship between the two has been very tense. Difference. They maintained a very special state of silence, and the two of them were like an angry young couple locked in a stalemate.

Fatty was fighting in the Gaul region, while Julius Teresa was curled up in the northwest region. For half a year, there was not even a letter. The other princesses came and went between the mainland of the empire and Obaro, for It's just that she can bear a little more of the fat man's favor. Only Julius Teresa is in the northwest, and there is no moon on the terrace near the water. The relationship between the two is like a cruel political marriage cocktail with two red cherries in it. men and women,

With this unclear answer, Julius Teresa boarded the carriage back to the northwest with a sad look. The moment the carriage was about to start, she looked at the window of the office above, but saw nothing. , the wheels rolled away,

The fat man raised his head and glanced at the last withered yellow leaf on the branch outside the window spinning in the howling autumn wind. He could feel that for a moment, the cold arrogance of this woman Julius Teresa was shaking. For the fat man, she had enough wives. Yes, more beauties It is impossible to count. It takes more than five fingers to count the ss-level beauties in your family who are crowned with the title of princess of a country. If you want the title of princess, I can give it to you, but if you want to love her, you need to show your sincerity. , Fat Master’s love is not given just when you see someone.

After sending Julius Teresa away in the morning, the upset fat man decided to go to the Southwest Intelligence Department to relax in the afternoon. He wanted to see Li Yuehua. This woman had recently caused some trouble, be it small or big. , co-branded by six Central European countries Complaints were filed against Li Yuehua, a foreign affairs officer of the Falcon Empire, for his arrogant attitude and procrastination in doing things. The most outrageous thing is that he openly humiliated the royal family of the other country. He even ignored the other party in formal foreign affairs negotiations many times and threw important agreements directly into the wasteland in front of the other party. paper basket,

"This is a serious act of neglecting foreign affairs personnel and a serious act of humiliating the country he represents behind him!" Looking through this report, looking at the "evil deeds" listed above about Li Yuehua, the fat man's face twitched with laughter. , Li Yuehua is not a professional foreign service personnel, nor does he have any Experience in foreign affairs. During this period, with the end of the Battle of Daniel, foreign affairs exchanges from Central Europe and Pakistan became more frequent. Classmate Li, who was forcibly brought to the forefront, after working hard for a month to deal with a mountain of foreign affairs documents, He would definitely do something disgusting to his opponent.

Foreign affairs are just a matter of making fun of each other on the table and kicking each other under the table. National interests are no small matter. There are many countries in Central and European countries. Foreign exchanges are already an important part of national affairs, let alone sending the northern hegemon Falcon this time. The foreign affairs officials of the empire are all experienced and sophisticated monkey-like characters.

For this new neighbor to the north. No one dares to fool me casually

Trivial negotiations continued, and Li was forced to meet with several, or even more than a dozen, foreign affairs personnel every day, just like bargaining with the fat proprietress of a grocery store. Every agreement was like a copper plate rubbed between fingers for ten times. I checked a few times to see if it was true.

If this kind of thing were left to a veteran like Lidakus, he would definitely be able to do it smoothly and have both sides, but for someone like Li Yuehua who is used to killing the other party without even showing his face, this one Yue is simply worse off than alive. Fat people typically seek to avenge themselves privately and openly. Even after being promoted from lord to king. Being promoted from king to emperor of the empire, this kind of inner nature will not change. Among the five commanders of the empire who are familiar with Fatty's despicable, despicable and despicable ways, have they all suffered revenge from Fatty?

This woman did that before the Battle of Daniel. Fatty still feels a little angry when he thinks about it now.

He really wanted to knock this cold-faced woman on the head and say, "Even if she is a peerless beauty, I am not someone who will give in easily. A pig with too many crowns of ice, pure jade, and snow lotus cannot be shaken by a little cabbage! Not to mention this little one." The cabbage still has a small blemish! “

Train subordinates. The fat man always retaliates with tit for tat. He wants Li Yuehua, an unscrupulous woman, to know how unpleasant it is to be forced onto the stage sometimes. Otherwise, this woman who is full of dark side will not torture people to death in the future!

Another reason is because of the arrival of the Dongting Empire's envoys. The people of Dongting hope to gain the friendship of the Falcon Empire. This is really surprising news. Fatty needs to know the details of the war between the Zhongbia Empire and the Grassland Dongting Empire. In order to To decide the diplomatic attitude towards this Dongting people who appeared outside the long wall,

In this regard, Li Yuehua, who was originally the head of the Central Asian Intelligence Division, was undoubtedly the best candidate. Passing by the western suburbs of the city, the fat man accidentally saw a sacrificial hall of the Salander Sky Cult being built beside the road. The connection between the two continents is getting stronger day by day. The Salanders, who originally had some resentment towards the Obarro region, finally entered this land in a large scale. The excellent sailing skills of the Salander sailors have always been welcomed by the merchant fleet, and the Salanders gained wealth and respect. It also promotes the development of the regional private navigation industry.

The prototype of the temple with blue walls and red roof exudes a sense of religious sanctity under the blue sky in late autumn. Next to the temple is a huge flower garden in the Salander style. The romance of the Salander people is among the most popular. As we all know, even in this desolate situation, At the end of autumn, the warm tones of color were still shining, and there was a faint sound of hymns, accompanied by the sound of cackling carriages, gentle and free in the ears like the wind whispering. In the ears of the sky believers, this is the voice of the sky. The music score left by God in the human world,

But in Fatty's ears, this is the sound of culture singing. These scores were reviewed by Fatty himself. In addition to part of the explanation of the sky doctrine, most of them involve astronomy and calendar.

According to statistics from the Southwest Governor's Mansion, seventeen Sky Church temples of various sizes, serving as the basis for cultural dissemination, are distributed in various cities in the Southwest, while accounting colleges, which serve as the basis for commerce and trade, have been established in eight coastal areas. The city was completed, and the Navy Southwest District Academy was completed in July, The construction of the college is one of the major construction projects in the Southwest District. Fatty spent 17 million gold coins in the Southwest District, of which 9 million were used for the construction of basic colleges, ranging from commerce to culture, to religion, to the military, located in the north and south The strategic hub, the southwest district of the east-west hub has become the core of the empire in Obarro

Even the Central European Barrow region outside the Southwest District has to admit that this business and cultural center exudes light like a bright pearl. At the end of June, the population of the Southwest District exceeded the 6.32 million people in its heyday. The trauma suffered during the chaos has completely healed. Unexpectedly, in Fatty's heart, the imperial war has always been on the scale. It is divided into two parts, one part is the killing of the Steel Spine, and the other part is the fragrance spread by culture. If it weren't for the thousand-year-old imperial capital Palavon Academy that cannot be shaken in the hearts of the Ikadiwa people, the fat man almost asked for the Palavon Academy to be removed. The highest cultural institution in the empire was moved to Oubaluo. In the end, this idea was strongly opposed by Lao Duoze before it was abandoned.

Since it was impossible to move Palavon College here, Fatty decided to build a new Palabon College directly in the Southwest District. The location has been selected. It is a seaside city with a very advantageous geographical location, about 20 miles away from the bustling capital of Southwest. The college Construction started in May and has now completed the construction of the university library, and has offered extremely high salaries. As long as he can become a professor at New Palawan College, the empire will provide him with a large independent courtyard free of charge, all high-end furniture, and even women if needed.

In the war-torn land, men died one by one, leaving behind only the elderly, women, and children. There are many situations where yin is strong and yang is weak.

Moreover, the professors of the college will be awarded the title of regional lord directly by the empire. Although it is just a title with no actual fiefdom, it is a symbol of glorious status and is awarded personally by the emperor of the empire. To know. Except for some generals with outstanding military exploits in the empire. Almost all of them have no title, and they have status in the face of so much money. A promising man, as long as he is not a woman who thinks too highly of herself, will not choose to refuse.

In terms of strategic layout, the fat man who likes to kill people without losing money is undoubtedly the pinnacle of this era. When it comes to military weapons, equipment and combat power, the Gallic Empire that has dominated the north for three hundred years in the northwestern region lost half of its territory. The Falcon Army is also a bird that makes any enemy feel guilty. The powerful legion of Chill, but the shortcomings of the Falcon Empire are also very obvious, that is, the development of science and technology and culture, the Ikadiva continent has been isolated from the Obarro continent for hundreds of years, and the environmental fluctuations caused by hundreds of years of kingdom wars, The cultural fault has caused the cultural development of Ikadiva to stagnate.

The fat man smashed millions of big golden eggs in the Southwest District, and the first golden phoenix he seduced was the mathematician Mikaji from Barrow in Central Europe. To be precise, Mikaji was an assistant to an astronomer, and he was A small nobleman from a certain country. His research on arithmetic is very unique and he helps Because this astronomer successfully predicted the total solar eclipse that would occur on June 17, he was wanted throughout Central Europe as a monster duo that brought disaster. The astronomer died on the way (from starvation) because of his physical weakness. , only Mikajji persisted until reaching the Southwest District,

In this strange country, like a stray dog, he became the first professor to be appointed as a professor at New Palawan College, responsible for teaching advanced arithmetic. His salary was one thousand gold coins a month, and the empire paid him one thousand gold coins in advance. With a year's salary, he immediately became rich and married a nobleman the next month. The beauty of the Jue family was his wife, and when he was an astronomer's assistant, his salary was only 7 silver coins a week. Only the fat cook in the backyard would look at him. With such an example, those frustrated mathematicians, poor people Bachelor of alchemy who sells aphrodisiacs, and architects who pick up soil and dig walls by themselves come in droves.

They may not all be able to become professors at New Palawan University, but even if they become first-level lecturers, second-level lecturers, etc. in that new institution, one month's salary is the wealth that they can earn in a year or even several years, and The biggest advantage here is that for some of their research that requires a lot of money, they can finally find a big entrepreneur who is willing to support them to continue their research, that is The imperial side has both money and the ability to continue its own research. The people here at New Palawan College are stupid and have a lot of money. The reputation of coming quickly has spread like wildfire in Barro, Central Europe, and is regarded by scholars from all over the world. "Holy Land of Scholars" Facing the sudden arrival of the golden age, people standing at the crossroads like Fatty are not only the eyes of kings like Fatty, but also the entire Oparo scholars.

The carriage stopped in front of the Southwest Intelligence Department building. The bright and hot weather made the fat man cover his eyes with his hands. He reluctantly got off the carriage. The autumn heat wave hit his face. With a bit of mischief, the fat man gave way at the entrance of the corridor. The accompanying guard stopped and walked alone to the end of the corridor, rumored to be the most terrifying place in the entire continent. Li Yuehua's office on the ground, gently opened the door, and saw that the female spy chief of the Southwest Intelligence Department was lying on the desk, talking, but her two fair and exposed ankles under a plain white dress made her look even more... The female spy leader is charming and enchanting, her face is a little pale, she must be quite tired,

The fat man looked around carefully. The layout of the room was not big. Even small. But it's very cozy. There is a shelf of books in the corner, and there are Chinese and Arabic characters written in four directions on the wall. Except for a document with the word "confidential letter" on the desk, there is no trace of anything related to espionage. It is said that Li Yuehua is a cold woman who is usually very casual. She usually sits or lies on the sofa, drinking high-end Sino-Bian bitter tea that is probably bought by a fake Gongji privately. Only when she sees people does her head spin. bad water

"Who!" As if she felt something, the female spy leader who was lying on the table suddenly jumped up from her seat, quickly touched the bottom of her skirt between her legs, and pulled out a handful of bright shorts that she didn't know how to hide and pull out. Dagger, a pair of red eyes, and the black hair on his head is messy and flowing down, like a big rabbit that has been awakened.

Her eyes focused on the uninvited guest who broke into her room, and when she saw the familiar and fat figure of the visitor, she shuddered, put down the dagger, and quickly knelt down on one knee. "I didn't know it was your Majesty who came, please forgive me!" "

"I said, where did you hide that dagger?" The fat man opened his eyes full of curiosity. According to his gaze, he had already seen clearly that the dagger seemed to be hidden in Li Yuehua's underwear. I was surprised. As expected of an assassin, there was someone who could hide a dagger in that place. Even with such courage, the fat man felt a little cold. (To be continued...)
