    The fifth hundred thirty-five chapter [the first strong]

    "I don't object to killing him."

    After listening to Tegel's killing of his wife, Sophie's expression was very cold: "Your decision is correct. If you really want to recruit this guy, I will also try to persuade you to dispel your thoughts and get rid of this guy. There is no problem with your judgment. For this kind of wealthy future for yourself, you can kill the dear ones without hesitation. This kind of guy has no value of soliciting. Such people will never know how to be loyal. In the face of interests, he will not hesitate to sell anyone. ”

    Speaking of this, Sophie's tone has changed slightly: "…But What I want to say is that it is right to kill him. The wrong way is. You can do this thing more tricks. Now you kill him, but others may not really know why, especially if we are occupiers, just occupying Notting, killing Tegel, it is easy to cause panic among the people. ”

    "So is it wrong?"

    "I said, your decision is correct. This guy is a scourge and can't stay. But before you kill him, you can do more tricks. ”Sophie smiled faintly: "Well, since I am here, I will take over this matter, I will do a good job of the aftermath. Well, I need some people. Some of the servants in the original Tegel family are controlled and given to me…"

    Shaar didn't have much interest in these things, just handed it over to the people, and then immediately cared about the most important one.

    "Hasting there…How is it now? ”

    Sophie looked at Shaar and hesitated a little. He said: "To tell the truth, I…Still not very accurate. ”

    "Oh?"Shaar smiled: "And what are you not sure about?"

    "Of course I do."Sophie quickly replied: "My duty is to help you deal with the problem, but not responsible for the decision, I just tell you my analysis and judgment, and then you can refer to it."

    Suddenly, Sophie’s expression was serious: “Hasting the guy, I can’t see him.”

    Shaar didn't show much doubt: "It's normal, that guy…If it can be easily seen, it will not become Odin's God of War. ”

    Shaar stood up and walked a few steps in the room, frowning: "What is his request?"

    Sophie told Shaar about her experience in Hasting, including the content of the conversation. After Shaar listened, the expression did not ease because of it, but it became more dignified.

    He said,You should understand what he wants. ”Sophie smiled bitterly, then took a deep look at Shaar: "Obviously, Lord, you and the Odin's God of War, there seems to be some unknown relationship?"

    "This is not what you should know."Shaar shook his head.

    "Well, I will stick to the position of a subordinate."Sophie said faintly: "You are the head, you have the final say. Since there are some things you don't want others to know, then I won't ask more. The problem I am worried about is actually very simple: Do you think he is trustworthy? ”

    Shaar thought for a moment with his eyes closed, then he opened his eyes and smiled: "For the time being…Trust it. ”

    What does Hasting want?

    Others don't know, but Shaar understands.

    That guy, his own "brother"…All he wants is to get rid of the Byzantine Royal Family! Come to a complete revenge!

    However, is his own idea the same as him?

    Of course not.

    Kill the Byzantine Royal Family…Well, if it is the rabbit emperor, his life and death Shaar does not care.

    But don't forget, hillbilly is preparing to pitiful creature, which is the princess of the Byzantine Royal Family. Blood is also the person of the Byzantine Royal Family.

    Hasting's ideal is to perish the Byzantine Royal Family, then Hasting will stand on the opposite side of the guardians of the entire Byzantine Empire, including Adric and others…

    "It's really hard to do."Shaar smiled a bit.

    Hasting, Black Flag Army, this will be a hot potato in your hand.

    "For the time being, please calm down. Is your negotiation result not a mercenary way?" Do this first. ”Shaar can't think of a better way for the time being.

    But what is certain is that, in any case, the Black Flag Army is a very powerful force, and there are always some benefits in your own hands.

    Sophie looked at Shaar: "I have an idea."

    "What?"

“……Rhodelia, El Salvador. ”The chief of the staff smiled lightly to reveal the white teeth.

    Shaar immediately began to think.

    How is Salva…

    After the four military regions in the north have been settled, then the expansion of the site, the army and population under control will become larger and larger, and at the same time, more and more enemies will face.

    The four military regions that had been bordering on themselves were settled, and then there will be more and more Terma military regions bordering themselves…

    One of the most powerful, no doubt is the guy in El Salvador.

    The Rhodelia Military District, bordered by Nottingham, settled in Nottingham and then collided directly with the territory of El Salvador. The 10,000 reinforcements sent by El Salvador solved Rhinehart, then what?

    The second war? To conquer El Salvador?

    From a military perspective, war is not a problem. After consolidating the Northern Fourth Military Region, Shaar's strength was unprecedentedly strong. If he started the war, he would have the confidence to solve El Salvador.

    But from a political point of view, this is not wise.

    He did not eat the power of El Salvador.

    Winning a war is one thing, but eating it completely is another matter.

    The four military regions in the north have been settled. Large areas of new land, population, and territory need to be controlled. Those who need to promote trust to control these places need to appease the people, calm down the place, and post-war aftermath…Wait a minute, etc.

    After all, Shaar’s Northern Army Group is a new-born group. The number of people Shaar can really trust is not many, and the number of people who can use it is not enough. Eating four military regions is temporarily his limit. If it is too greedy. Even if he hits a new place, he does not have the right person to take over.

    His group, which has just established initial cohesion, is not suitable for swallowing too much cake at once.

    "El Salvador will not sit and wait to die, he will find a way to trouble us."Shaar muttered to himself: "So, let's find some trouble for him first, don't let him idle."

    "It's the same as I thought."Sophie smiled very happy: "So…Let the Black Flag Army…Let's go south. ”

※※※

    Osgiliath in the morning, the sky is full of haze.

    Winter is almost coming, Osgiliath's cloudy days have been going on for a few days, and in the days when there is no sunshine, the weather is too humid and cold. Some people who are not very good at body have begun to wear thick skin to keep out the cold.

    The square in front of the Imperial Palace is empty, the nearby streets have been martial, no pedestrians pass by here, the Imperial Palace's gates are confined, and the Imperial Guard still maintains the imperial city's defense. It still looks solemn, but in fact it has already revealed some decadent appearance.

    Everyone knows today that the core of Osgiliath's power is no longer here. The core of the new power is the military.

    The military has now completely taken over everything, city defense, military, logistics, internal affairs, and so on.

    All of everything, all power, has now been transferred to that person.

    Adek, the empire's protectorate Marshal, who is in charge of all internal and external military and political powers – this power, since the establishment of the Byzantine Empire, has never had any of the courtiers have such power!

    Today, although the emperor is still the supreme being of the empire, such "highest" is only in nominal terms.

    Osgiliath's city defense is firmly in the hands of the city guards. The Central Army has entered the city, some of them are stationed near the military, and some are stationed in the port area.

    The private forces of the original Aristocrat of Imperial Capital have been disarmed and concentrated in the camp of the Central Army – nominally defending, but in fact everyone knows that these aristocrat private troops are actually being held by the Central Army. If you have any changes, the Central Army will completely hesitate them without hesitation.

    Imperial Capital seems to have finally entered the "military tube", Adek, the guardian of Osgiliath, in charge of all power, but in fact…

    The situation in Osgiliath has not developed in the right direction.

    "What about the South?"

    Adric looked up, his face was creased, his eyes were anxious, his eyes were full of red bloodshot eyes.

    "What else can you say? Continue to smash."Ruhr was laughing: "Our teacher, I can't help you."

    "He knows the situation better than us. and alsoFrom the situation, he even has an advantage over us. ”Adrik shook his head.

    Indeed, the situation is not good.

    Osgiliath's mutiny, Adrics won the highest power, but the South is still in the hands of Duke Minas – even the current situation is worse than a few months ago.

    After the mutiny, Duke Minas in the south has completely cut off the relationship with Imperial Capital, and his southern conquest has broken the biggest rebel in the South.

    The southern rebel head of the horror Ivan has been annihilated, and Minas is desperately astoundingly fast–this confirms Ruhr's discovery that the rebellion in the South is the shadow of Duke Minas.

    The old-fashioned teacher walked in front of his disciples every step of the way.

    Adek became the imperial guardian of Marshal, commanding all military and political affairs inside and outside, and in the name of the emperor, recalled Duke Minas…

    But the Duke of the South, Minas, ignored it, and the South Army he controlled calmed the last rebellion in the south as fast as he could, but for the orders passed by Imperial Capital, he posed a "no way out of the life of the outside", for imperial capital The recall of his royal decree, he just wrote "The War emergency, had to right."

    Of course, such a book is just a way of doing it.

    What made Adrick even more uncomfortable was that Duke Minas quickly settled the rebellion in the south, annihilated the last rebellion, and smashed the head of the rebellious "Ivan of terror", cut his head down, and then splendidly Send someone back to Imperial Capital.

    The merits are strictly in accordance with the degree of the empire's laws and regulations. There are official documents submitted to the military, and there is a resurrection to the emperor…

    And Adrick of Imperial Capital had to hold his nose and recognize it, and then he was awarded the Duke Minas award in the name of the military. At the same time, he gave the Southern Rebels a record of their achievements and acknowledged their achievements in the southern rebellion.

    Adric has no way…He must do this.

    Duke Minas also read the book again, thanking the military for the award. He also said that the South has just settled, the place is still unstable, and there is rebellion in the rebellion. In order to consolidate the fruits of victory, he will continue to stay in the south. In order to completely clear the remnants of the rebellion…

    Both sides have a tacit understanding of the peace in the face.

    Everyone knows that it is not the time to tear your face.

    However, the situation began to develop in favor of Duke Minas.

    Adric's situation is not good, he is very clear about this, Ruhr is also very clear.

    Duke Minas put on a leading position, self-protection, occupied the site in the south, and opposed the Imperial Capital. And Adric did not have much to do with him.

    If it is strong action by force, and the South tears the face, then…Only to send troops to the south to conquer Minas, but this road is not allowed!

    Hughes of the Armenia Military District is sitting on the sidelines, and if Imperial Capital is sent south, the snake will not hesitate to reveal his teeth.

    But if you let Duke Minas in the South, regardless of, and continue to send troops to attack Hughes in the north…

    Adek can be sure that once his army is headed out of Imperial Capital, Duke Minas will not stay in the South! He will definitely return to Imperial Capital with the southern rebels and take over all power!

    Ruhr once had a trick: "Let's go north!" With the Emperor Garcia going out, Duke Minas, even if he took the opportunity to sneak in behind, even if he returned to Osgiliath, he would just get an empty city, as long as we took the emperor in hand…"

    The idea was embarrassing, but Adric immediately dismissed Ruhr's fantasies.

    It wasn't Adek's pedantic, but this time, Adric showed a more sober observation than Ruhr!

    "The teacher has betrayed the empire."Adrik calmly analyzed: "Even if we hold the emperor to go to the north together, then the teacher will immediately take the opportunity to take Osgiliath behind us…then…He is afraid that he will go further and do more! For example, after occupying Imperial Capital and taking away our base camp, we will do some tricks in the back, which will make us unfavorable on the front line…If we accidentally lose in frontline operations, the army will fall…Even we are dead on the front line, or…The Emperor’s Majesty himself died on the front line, and the teacher was only more happy in the rear. At that time, if the emperor died outside, the teacher would have been in Imperial Capital, and he would be crowned as a new emperor by the subordinates. ”

    This is definitely not a ridiculous guess!

    Duke Minas has absolute prestige, decades of connections, prestige, and a wide range of disciples in the army…

    If the emperor died in the front line and the Royal Family had no heirs, he could directly direct a drama that was under the support of the subordinates.

    Can not be cut in the north, can not be south, the situation seems to be deadlocked here.

    However, the stalemate in this situation is still unfavorable to Adek!

    Don't forget…The reason why Osgiliath continued to persist and continue to be the core of the northern rebels was a very important reason: the Imperial Central also controlled several counties in the southern part of the empire.

    The land of the South is the source of the last wealth tax of the Imperial Central Government and the last place of the military source.

    But now, the South was entrenched by Duke Minas, his southern rebel army, in the name of counterinsurgency, took over several counties in the south, and the old Duke’s prestige for decades, soon erected his prestige in the South, the place He is in charge of military and political affairs. He has enough prestige and connections.

    And Osgiliath is completely a lonely city!

    A true lonely city!

    Although there are still many troops, but…Such a big city, so many troops…To maintain it, the amount of money needed is huge!

    Osgiliath is just a city, and the surrounding area is not big. For a long time, where is the money and food to survive?

    With the assistance of Atlantean at sea? After all, it can't last long. The wealth and food of the wealth of the South can no longer be counted.

    Then, for every stalemate, Osgiliath's hoarding of food and materials will consume a little, and the day when the money is exhausted, it is also a dead end!

    Adek and Ruhr are not ignorant of their situation.

    They just think about how to decide.

    They can only go one step at a time, and once this step is taken out, they are betting on everything, and there is no chance to turn back!

    Or south, or north…They are just still deciding.

    However, at this time, the news of the North finally passed to Imperial Capital!

    "The Imperial North defending area General, Noz Grand Duke, Shaar Thunder, reported to the Emperor's Department, the defending area soldiers fought bloody battles, has officially broken the northern rebel Becker Military District, Newvika Military District, Boluo Military Region, Notting Military District! The four military regions have been completely restored! ”

    In one fell swoop, the four Terma military districts were settled and the land of the four military regions was conquered!

    The most important thing is that such a result comes so quickly! !

    In less than a month, the four northern military regions were eaten by Shaar! !

    This kind of news immediately caused a shock and awkwardness at Imperial Capital! !

    The young upstart in the north, his rise is already unstoppable! !

    Everyone was shocked by the news from the north! Whether it is the Empire camp or the warlord party camp!

    The young upstart in the north, he and his group of the Northern Army, from the official birth to today, is less than two years!

    Now, this group of the Northern Army, for any party in the empire, has become a behemoth that must look up!

    The Northern Army already has the largest territory of all powers: the area controlled by the Northern Army has reached the equivalent of seven counties: Moore, Siltan, Corsica, Becker, Bolo, Newvika ……Of course, there is Shaar Thunder as the duke's fief, Noz County!

    No military district has such a large territory! Then there is no land in the south controlled by Duke Minas in the south!

    At the same time, the Northern Army has the most powerful and war-torn army of the entire Byzantine Empire! The army of the Northern Army broke the Odin Red Snow Army and broke four military regions within one month! This kind of combat power, no army in the empire can do it!

    With the largest site, the strongest army, the Shaar Thunder in the north, it has become the empire of the Byzantine Empire in the current strong forest…The first Haoqiang!

    "This Shaar…Gave us a big surprise! ”

    Ruhr smiled very strangely with the report from the Northern Army in his hand.

    And Adric, sitting quietly there, caressing his forehead, and doesn't know what to think about…
