Realm of Power

After Fatty handed over the development plan to Prais, he said he didn't know much about the real situation of Badiya Port, the core of the plan.

After hesitating for a moment, the fat man looked at Plaice and said in a solemn voice, "Should I go to Badiya Port in person?" Plaice's eyes flickered and he said decisively, "I believe that His Majesty should go in person." The port of Badiya “then spoke no more, The hesitant look on his face caused the fat man's eyes to flicker sharply. "Oh, Sir Prais, tell me what you think?" "Your Majesty, Badiya Port is an important part of His Majesty's plan. After all, it was once the capital of Fei The lair of Shan's rebellious nobles, "Plais has an ancient face." Weird, he said in a deep voice that seemed a little awkward, "Plais may not be able to understand the emperor's genius plan, but as a senior administrative officer, his subordinates still know that things like the one in Badiya Port Such large-scale construction and expansion of the gambling industry will inevitably encounter considerable criticism within the empire. The gambling industry is very common in inland sea ports. Gambling can be found almost wherever there are ports. However, Fei Shan’s large-scale construction of the gambling industry has caused a lot of criticism in other areas. How can you agree?"

Plaice's voice paused, and a meaningful wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "If it were two years ago, I, Plaice, would not be afraid of these rumors, but my subordinate is no longer the adjutant general of the empire two years ago. !" A look of astonishment flashed across the fat man's face. How determined is Plais to say such a thing!

The fat man was shocked. He knew why Plais was in such a difficult situation. Plaice's eyes were indeed sharp. He was worthy of being a figure who once dominated a kingdom. He just believed that developing the gambling industry in Feishan would definitely revive the Feishan region. , but what Plais sees is obviously more overall and far-reaching.

The gambling industry in the Feishan area has risen strongly, and its influence will inevitably spread throughout the entire inland sea area. By then, the gambling industry in other ports in the inland sea will be the first to bear the brunt!

This is a big deal. Gambling is not prohibited in the empire, so the gambling industry in the empire is actually quite developed. The coastal port area is a golden place for gambling, and it goes without saying that it can stand firm in such a golden place. The power of the heel can even be traced all the way back to the emperor's harem,

Two years ago, Plais was beaten to the end by him because he tried to protect Princess Ruidian. Now that he realizes that the influence of the harem may be involved, it's no wonder that Plaice is so impatient to get her. If you take yourself out, you will get the consequences that are hard to provoke, which Plais had already encountered in Ruidian! Not to mention that this kind of thing that ruins a person's financial path is comparable to killing one's parents, and is most likely to cause ridicule. No matter how strong Pudalas is, if he does it, he will be severely punished by thousands of people! That's why Plais stayed here and refused to leave. Even if he had to bite the bullet, he still had to make it clear to His Majesty the Emperor. You can develop the gambling industry, but this matter involves too much and too many people. He, Plais, can't bear the interests of

Looking at Plaice's embarrassed face, Fatty couldn't help but be touched by Plaice's words. After all, he slapped the imperial adjutant in anger two years ago. In the end, the adjutant-general still had some resentment in his heart. At that time, Plais, as a close official of the emperor, , with a high position and great power, it can be said that no one dares to jump out and criticize at will. However, the current Prais has just been re-activated by the emperor, and his reputation and influence are not as good as before. Now he has to confront him again. It touches everyone's interests, why don't everyone collectively spit on him and drown him!

"I know that Sir Plais was feeling aggrieved back then, but if you don't want to involve too many people and kill too many people, I can only kill once to serve as a warning to others. I will wrong you." The fat man took a deep breath and said to Plais. A little apologetically, he said with relief. "I didn't think carefully enough. This matter involves too much and it is really not something you can handle. You go and prepare. I will go to Badiya with you tomorrow and let you meet your collaborators by the way!" Do you have any other requests?"

"Your Majesty has such a heart. I am already ashamed. What else do you want?"

Plais swept away the pained look on his face, and was even so excited that he couldn't help being caught off guard. The emperor promised to visit Badya in person. This was enough. As long as the news spread, he, Putamia, would be alive. Not only does it mean that Plais is still the emperor's most trusted minister, looking at The empire, the only political officer who can allow the emperor to make a personal trip, is no one but himself, and he has also successfully revealed to others that the chief designer of Feishan region's strategy is His Majesty the Emperor. If you have any dissatisfaction, go ahead. Looking for His Majesty the Emperor has nothing to do with me, Plais! "Badiya must be established. This is related to the empire's strategic move towards the south. I need you to pay close attention to it. I can also take a look and see who will jump out!" The emperor's next words, Jean Plais's smile was not even small, and he immediately felt a biting coldness like falling into an ice cave. This murderous intention was too strong. It seems that the emperor is really murderous. "Yes, my subordinates understand! "Plais nodded cautiously, and couldn't help but admire in his heart. The emperor's move was really a stroke of genius!

After all, this secret investigation into the infiltration of the southern forces only lasted a little over a month. Although some findings were discovered, compared to the massive infiltration of the southern forces into the empire in recent years, it was only the tip of the iceberg. , no one knows how many people who have been infiltrated by the south are in important positions in the empire. In addition, how many people are involved, even among the imperial officials, and as the area most penetrated by the south, it is undoubtedly the inland sea port area under the control of the empire, which is the distribution center for all kinds of information, and even many people within the empire are still There is no published news, but you can find some suspicions here.

The emperor wants to use Badiya as bait to fish out all these port officials who may have been infiltrated!

As long as the news of the emperor's personal layout of Feishan is released, as long as the southern forces are not fools, they will realize that what the emperor is planning can never be just a Feishan area. When the time comes to support Feishan in the rear and Istan, which has a large number of troops, The Port of Hérault is embedded like a nail and looks like a sharp triangle on the map.

With the Port of Hérault as the forward support in the front and the Feishan area as the logistical support in the back, the empire's 200,000 troops in the Istan area no longer need to be trapped in the Istan area, but expand their strategic mobilization space to the Estan area at once. In the northern part of Luo, when the time comes, you will no longer have any worries and can head south with a bang!

The southern forces would inevitably mobilize the empire's resources to oppose the empire's development of the gambling industry in Feishan, but they didn't know that the emperor had already sharpened his sword.

It was still dawn the next day, and the North Star could still be seen in the night sky. The imperial guards were wearing black armor, standing tall and straight on both sides of the main road of Hakara's house. They all focused on a fat figure walking towards the iron gate in front. There was a black car at the iron gate. The carriage is waiting. The black unmarked carriage looks more spacious than other carriages. The drivers are two imperial officials wearing imperial uniforms. Behind the carriage are hundreds of Imperial Guards Cavalry in red cloaks. Fluttering like a flag in the wind, an imperial guard opened the car door, and the fat man was about to step up.

At this moment, an imperial guard hurriedly ran over, holding a military report in his hand, shouting as he ran

"Your Majesty, urgent battle report from the south!

"Southern War Report?"

The fat man stopped and waited until the guard walked in. He stretched out his hand and took the military newspaper from the guard's hand. The three-color red falcon pattern on the cover of the military newspaper indicated that this was an extremely urgent battle report. Fatty He walked onto the carriage, opened the battle report in his hand, stared at the content inside, glanced slightly at the corner of his mouth, and pressed the battle report in his hand on the table.

"Your Majesty must have succeeded." A smile appeared on the slightly older face of Plais across from him.

"Haha, the deputy officer's gaze is indeed as vicious as before." The fat man let out a low cry from the corner of his mouth. This battle report finally made a big stone fall in his heart.

The battle report was sent back by Reposti, which reported: "Yesterday morning, Reposti's 10,000 imperial cavalry successfully raided the holy capital of the Order, and then turned to the front of the Atabi battlefield. As expected, they discovered the south The coalition forces of various countries, the Putamia Army suffered heavy losses and fled the battlefield. It has been confirmed that the four countries participating in this battle are Aden, Ikar, Martinliya, and Harvey...

The Holy City succeeded!

The fat man's eyes were bright and frightening. The most critical part of this battle was that he had finally landed. Don't look at the fat man's strategizing look on his face. In fact, he was very nervous inside. After all, he was separated by an inland sea of ​​three to four hundred miles in the Feishan area. Remotely control the battle of the Order State hundreds of miles away. No matter how good the plan is, people still need to execute it on the battlefield.

What's more, the battlefield is ever-changing. Although it is predicted that the Holy Capital of the Order will be empty of troops, if the Order leaves behind heavy troops, it will fall short. Fortunately, God bless the empire, Reposti easily captured the Holy Capital of the Order without any effort. , this is God’s will! Under the curious gaze of Plais across from him, the fat man handed the military report to Plais and told the contents of the report.

Picking up the battle report, Plais read it carefully three times, hesitated, and said, "Your Majesty, is it too early to be happy? Although the Holy Capital has succeeded, the Southern Allied Forces and the Order Army will definitely counterattack the Holy Capital with all their strength. The friendly Pudamia army has already suffered heavy losses and fled! There are only 10,000 cavalrymen of Reposti in the entire Holy City area. If the opponent counterattacks the Holy City, Reposti may not be able to hold on for long! ""Don't worry, I didn't let Reposti! Di clings to the holy capital Plan: "The fat man knew what Plais was thinking, and curled his lips coldly." Varisien's 50,000-strong army was approaching the Holy Capital with all its strength. Reposti only needed to use cavalry to harass the Southern Allied Forces, and use Reposti's cavalry to command ability As long as they don't fight hard, there is nothing the Southern Allied Forces can do. Moreover, before the Southern Allied Forces counterattacked the Holy City, I prepared a big gift for them. Now I'm afraid they are too busy to take care of themselves, and they are still thinking about counterattacking the Holy City! "

"Great gift! The great gift your Majesty said is..." Putamia glanced at the corner of the fat man's mouth full of cunning smile, and the hand holding the battle report trembled slightly. According to His Majesty the Emperor's bad taste of playing to death and crippling his opponents, It is conceivable that at this moment, the 80,000 Southern Allied Forces sneaking into the Holy Capital of the Order State,

In the country of the Order, in the southwest corner of the Atabi Wetland, the sky is vast, the strong north wind is whistling, and the clouds are dense. A pure black strong horse spurts out white dust in the cold, and the young knight above looks at it. Keep looking at the front. The knight is wearing heraldic armor and a knight's sword on his waist. Behind him, countless spears stand in the cold wind. At the top of the spears, there are flags representing the family crest flapping in the cold wind. With,

"Father, how long do we have to wait? Her Majesty Potamia's army has been marching into the wetlands for so long, and now they are probably all at the gates of the Holy Capital. Once Her Majesty Potamia captures the Holy Capital, we will rush there. What's the point?" The young knight turned anxiously and looked at the middle-aged nobleman with a solemn expression next to him.

"Yes, if Her Highness Putamia captures the Holy City, all our hard work will be in vain!" Someone among the nobles in the front row whispered.

"Why don't we drive into the wetland now? Although we are a little late, we have finally caught up, right?" The nobles discussed one after another. Some people advocated driving into the wetland now, while others advocated waiting to see the situation. If Puda Did Mia lose the battle? These are the regional nobles from several provinces south of the Holy City. This time the Putamia Army launched a high-profile battle to recapture it, and the provinces along the way surrendered without a fight.

Potamia is a former pope, and now she is also known as the Valkyrie. Her great popularity and promised benefits have attracted the attention of many regional nobles. No one thinks that Potamia will fail, let alone this His Highness the former Pope was the Valkyrie who killed Emperor Aero. For many young nobles, this was simply a slap in the face. In this way, they spontaneously formed an auxiliary army to follow Putamia northward, and the number of people grew larger and larger. By the time they reached the Atabi Wetland, there were more than 30,000 people. This was just because this army was too chaotic, and Putamia Mia believed that her 90,000-strong army had an absolute advantage, so she simply did not let the 30,000 auxiliary troops follow suit.

"Tampa" everyone couldn't stop arguing. The sound of galloping hooves of the fast cavalry was heard in front of them. They saw a black line coming towards them. The news cavalry above had almost collapsed. Several attendants immediately came up to hold the reins of the war horse. , then the cavalry jumped down to fight The horse, panting and shouting, "Pudamia entered the wetland this morning and was defeated miserably by the Holy City side! If the imperial cavalry had not appeared, the Potamia army would have been completely wiped out! And there is , the empire has occupied the Holy Capital!"

"What! The empire has occupied the Holy Capital?" When the nobles heard the news, they were in an uproar.
