The Nords are very efficient. Although both the kingdoms of Nord and Ruidian have become regions of the Falcon Empire, the enmity and enmity of the two major countries over hundreds of years are not completely forgetable in just a few years. The Second Army of the South demonstrated absolutely superb combat power in Lisbon. From the full encirclement to the killing of one, it took less than half a night. The dead bodies were transported out of the military carriage and burned collectively. When the weather turned bright the next day, the southwestern neighbourhood of the city where the smuggling groups gathered had been completely demolished by the Second Army of the South.

　　

The army blocked the road into the southwest block, and no one knew what was going on. Then the army issued an order to clean up the smuggling completely, requiring all smugglers in Lisbon to register in the city center before noon, if there was a violation of the rebels , Once found, kill in place

　　

The citizens of Lisbonto shuddered behind the window, watching the military carriages heading towards the southwest neighbourhood of the city, empty in, and then loaded with unknown goods. The initial transportation was the property of the smuggling group. Then there are goods that need soldier protection to transport, such as gold, jewelry,

　　

　　The wealth that the smuggling group gathered in Lisbon was amazing. Although there was no detailed inventory, Salton was scared by the list in front of you. Are you sure the number of lists is correct? "Salton took a deep breath and folded the list in his hand into his pocket. His eyes were full of inexplicable surprise. Looking at the officer who reported to him, it was really amazing. If it was not seen with his own eyes, he was playing I don’t believe that even by smuggling, I can accumulate such a wealth. It’s no wonder that His Majesty Falcon is watching this, the pigs are fattening, and naturally they are to be slaughtered. At first, the army opened one eye to smuggling. Eyes, this is the mystery! It has to be admirable, such a genius person. No one really wants anything but the Falcon.

　　

The officer's dignified and careful answer answered, "It should be correct. Not only did we copy the other party's goods, we also found a large hidden dark room underneath several target estates. The jewelry cannot be estimated, but several are used to load gold coins. The total number of boxes exceeds 1,000 boxes, which is calculated based on 7,000 to 10,000 gold coins per box. As for the value of jewelry, we can't get a clear number for the time being. We have mobilized the jewelry appraisers of the entire Lisbon. Got the answer within a few days"

　　

　　 "There are ten million coins alone! There are countless jewels that cannot be estimated at this time!"

　　

　　Salton's eyes also shined. Although I know that smugglers in the Putuo area are very rich, I did not expect that there will be money to this extent. These underground monarchs in Lisbon are really wealthy! It is estimated that even if there is no Besuka incident, Vickia Falcon will find other ways to deal with all these fat and oil smugglers.

　　

　　 "During the cleanup, I encountered a special situation" The officer gave him a strange look,

　　

　　 "Special circumstance?" Salton frowned slightly, the army issued a death order, and all the resistance would be killed. What are the special circumstances of the dead?

　　

The adjutant hesitated to ask for instructions and said, "In addition to these properties, we also found several dungeons used by the smuggling group to hold female slaves. The women were held inside, and the captains in front were still waiting for instructions from the adults. What should these women do? ? Kill them all?"

　　

　　 "Women!" Salton froze for a moment, blinking his eyes. The slave trade is a very important way for the smuggling group. These women can be held by the smuggling group alone in the secret room of the headquarters. In addition to its own appearance, there should be a heart-wrenching identity. The Second Army of the South accepted the secret order from His Majesty the Emperor this time. Regarding the habits of the Merry Emperor, who knows whether the sudden start of the smuggling group is because of the fancy of the smuggling group, or the smuggling group has moved the emperor’s women, and under unknown circumstances, these women were executed without authorization, just because they would cause trouble. ,

　　

　　 These women are detained first! Record their name and identity! Take care according to general standards! "Salton ordered. If the fat man knew that Talton's worries would be crying and laughing, the fat man believed that he had been self-disciplined during the period of the general set, and almost did not provoke women, even if there was no relationship between men and women. Above,

　　

The report of the Second Army of the South is every day. He glanced at another list of property submitted by the Second Army, and there was a smile on his face. The seized property was mainly jewelry, gold and other dry and hard goods that can be circulated underground. He saw the list of more than thirty women’s names,

　　

　　 "Women?" Fatty, with the same expression as Salton, kill it? This should not be necessary! The fat man casually looked at the backgrounds of several women’s identities, and suddenly had some entanglements. Most of them were women of the aristocratic giants who were affected by the war in the Putuo area some time ago. There are even a few women who are not rich. In the past, noble and distinguished celebrities were secretly kidnapped by smuggling groups during the diaspora, and they were auctioned as underground goods in underground markets. The empire itself was prohibited from slaves, but because of the rampant smuggling in the general area, in some areas of the empire , Slaves also appeared,

　　

This kind of young woman with both looks and identities should be expensive in the underground market. Depending on the appearance and identities, the price is between 5,000 and 10,000. If you have a hostile family, you can Various methods can be used to make a bad breath. These women should have been sold half a month ago, but because the smuggling group controlled the trade of Lisbon, the Southern Army entered the city of Lisbon, and the underground black market It couldn’t be held as scheduled. When the Second Army of the South broke into the manor, the smuggling group was completely disrupted. Who still cares about the lives of these women, if it’s not for the search army, it’s really not easy Discovered the underworld that held these women,

　　

If you wait for three or four days, even if you find it, it is a dead body, because the smugglers only give a small amount of food and water every day to prevent these women from resisting. For most buyers who participate in the underground market, they are pale and The beautiful lady, who is weak and can't help the wind, is much more flavorful than the stubborn and rebellious and savage woman, so this convention has been formed. Smugglers use hunger to defeat the will and resistance of these ladies, let them learn to obey, and also Can guarantee that these women do not have too many scars, and they can do it in one fell swoop,

　　

　　After hesitating for a while, the fat man asked Salton to secretly send these women back to their families. In this way, the faces of these families can be guaranteed, and more support against smuggling can be obtained. Sure enough, many people who learned that the smuggling group kidnapped their giants in the Putao region began to stand on the side of the empire and unanimously gave up their previous accusations against the emperor. In Besuka’s atrocities, he turned to covertly or implicitly cooperate with the imperial side in arresting smugglers,

　　

　　Salton deserves to be a well-known Nord general, and under his command, the Second Southern Army’s attack on smuggling groups is strictly limited. The majority of Lisbon’s civilians were not affected. The smuggling group’s position in Putuo was almost uprooted. The military carried out thorough investigations throughout the Putuo region, comprehensively sealed up smuggled goods, and frozen the smuggling group’s underground transactions. With the assistance of local forces, in about half a month, the Second Army of the South captured more than 13,000 people involved in smuggling, and 4,000 of them were executed.

　　

　　 The smuggling that was rampant in Putuo region has been reduced to the role of everyone who has crossed the street. No more smugglers can be seen on the street. The area of ​​control of the orthodox merchants has rapidly expanded and became the mainstream in the market. The reputation of the imperial team that cracked down on smuggling has also been greatly improved.

　　

　　Most ordinary people do not know that when the military is fighting against ordinary smuggling, the structure of the empire's power has also changed in this storm, and the Ruier faction that has been punished with a total of three levels. It was Prais who was the first to be affected, and this time he was downgraded again within three levels, from the deputy governor in charge of military affairs to the administrator of the Palawan region. The undersecretary of the logistics department named Smuggling Group was seized by the Supervision Department, and a large number of correspondences with the smuggling group were seized. After a short interrogation, he was executed in the name of colluding with the smuggling group. More than 20 other officials from various ministries involved People, although only a few people from the Ruidian faction have seen blood in this storm, most of them have saved their lives, but the price is that the entire Ruidian faction was kicked out of the upper core power circle of the empire!

　　

In June, the sky breezes in Akino, rejoicing across the empire to combat smuggling, and when the upcoming July harvest is busy, the only Eastern Gaul that is still using troops is the unsatisfactory report. , Salon’s advancement to the four governing regions in the east was blocked,

　　

Because most of the empire’s main force was transferred to the southwest and Putuo regions, currently only six infantry flag regiments and one cavalry flag regiment of the empire under Saron, with a total strength of more than 70,000 people, and the four major eastern governors he faces The joint military strength was about 80,000 people, and then they evacuated from the direction of Gaul Kyoto. The temporary surviving Algeron Julia and the remaining 30,000 Gaul Northern Army under the command of Algeron Kaja, with a total strength of 110,000 people,

　　

With 70,000 troops responding to the combined 200,000 blocking troops on both sides, Saron also felt a lot of pressure. Fortunately, the forces of the four major coalition forces in the east and Aljonong were not coordinated. In order to compete for more control In the region where the three-pointed force is now present, Salon’s aggressive advancement was trapped after entering the mountainous region of eastern Gaul,

　　

The Gauls once fought for decades to conquer this area and the forces in the eastern mountains. Finally, they adopted a compromise method to achieve control in a meaningful way by recognizing the four major consuls. In fact, the eastern mountains were because of the terrain Rugged and complex, it is not suitable for the movement of large clusters of troops, and there are many ethnic groups in the eastern mountain areas, so it has never really been conquered in substance.

　　

　　June 3, sunny and windless,

　　

At the frontier hill where the emperor was stationed, Saron rode on the war horse. The single eye was staring at the horizon in front of him. The morning light had not shined on the horizon. The mountain in front of him was called Poalonso, which was a barrier to the eastern mountains. At present, the control area of ​​the empire and the control area of ​​the east are based on this boundary. Salon decided to meet the four major coalition forces in the east that are coming back.

　　

This eastern barrier is the highest point of the entire eastern mountainous area. Once you cross this area, the rugged terrain of the eastern mountainous area will become meaningless. Anyone who can occupy this area can easily take this as a base and face the area opposite the mountain range. I didn’t know the reason for the various tactics of breaking down. The eastern ruling coalition, which was originally in passive defense, suddenly launched a counterattack. More than a dozen outposts at the front were already captured, and even a medium-sized fortress was lost. The advancement of the month is completely lost, not to mention, but also forced to the point of full defense

　　

　　 At the other end of the mountain range, various military flags in power in the eastern four appeared at noon, just like a large forest lun silhouette wriggling, the black long line moving forward became more and more obvious.

　　

"go ahead!"

　　

　　The mountain infantry of the Dalaknita family is like a piece of yellow-dust sand. A soldier holding a mountain javelin and a round shield has an impact speed that is flat on the mountain. The Zhuchen Wood family’s shooter array always stands in the upper hand. The gold-stripe warfare of the Michelando family is a mountain light cavalry, holding a sharp four-meter assault gun in his hand. Although the number is not as good as the other three, But the uniform alignment shows that they are truly elite. Finally, the black flag and yellow-edged military banner of the Lee Cossell family. The entire shield of the spear is like a steel wall on the ridge.

　　

　　 The mountain breeze rolled up the leaves between the two armies, and murmured the bushes, as if there were only rhythmic rustling footsteps between heaven and earth,

　　

　　 "Get ready!"

　　

　　 Saron looked cold and waved to the heralding soldier behind him. He expected the counterattacks of the ruling coalition in the east, but he did not expect that there will be so many people, but at this time, he was obviously unwise. Not only would he lose the Po Alonso that was difficult to get, but as time went on, he was afraid There won't be such a good chance in winter, and with the order issued, the bleak horn of the Falcon Empire sounded at the same time. The queue unfolds layer by layer, in the middle. In the three directions of the right and left wings, an amazing number of troops are assembled, just like a solid long wall blocking the sight of the people opposite.

　　

　　 The two armies kept a tacit understanding at both ends of the mountain, with a depression in the middle. Looking far away "If the east is willing to belong to the empire, I can use my reputation to guarantee that the status of the four major consuls will not be affected." The Salon sent the letter to the opposing consul coalition and made the final persuasion.

　　

　　 "Stupid person! Tell him that we want the vast land behind him, at least two provinces. Otherwise there is no value in negotiation!"

　　

Dalaknita’s owner, Dalaknitavu, returned mercilessly. The head of the Michelando family looked coldly at the opposite Falcon Army behind the ruling coalition. This was not the first time the coalition faced The army of the Falcon Empire, but this is the first time that the two sides have faced such a positive battle. From the news of Central Europe Baro, the Falcon Empire has successfully annexed the Central African Empire, which has suddenly made the eastern ruling parties who have been passively defensive aware. By the way, if you haven’t done anything yet, the imperial army that fought out from the non-Government side will quickly press it up. Now if you take the initiative to counterattack, you may still be able to grab the mountain barrier first.

　　

　　 This is the undisguised full strength of the eastern ruling coalition. The herding soldiers ran like a stream of water, bringing news from the command center of the coalition center. This time the coalition mobilized 80,000 troops. Because it was a temporary battle, the Salon had only 40,000 troops, occupying the terrain of the Falcon Army. Very scary,

　　

　　 The two armed forces held each other for two hours, and the ruling coalition in the east remained unmoved.

　　

"Asshole, what the **** is going on?" Saron's eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, and it was now hot June that could smother people. For two hours, the heavy armor on the body was hot and the skin was red, here In this case, the falcon army, which is dominated by heavy armaments, obviously needs to lose some money. Looking at the calm enemy like a hill in front, Saron couldn’t help but flash a bad hunch, the other party seemed to be waiting for something. ? At this moment, the heralds of the coalition forces in the distance suddenly flew all the way from the central main array, and shouted to the soldiers sitting on the ground along the way, "Stand up, the whole army is ready to fight!"

　　

　　Allied soldiers stood up one after another, the armor on his body was dazzling and dazzling, and the sound of the armor blades colliding on his body was like a whirlwind blowing in the mountains.

　　

　　 "Attention, the enemy is coming up!"

　　

The infantry captains of the Falcon Army shouted loudly, and the soldiers quickly gathered in a row~lightnovelpub.net~ 'S breath was violent and rapid.

　　

The sun of June was shining on their shoulders wearing dozens of pounds of heavy armor, like a hot iron. The front row was a huge siege shield. The steel shield shone in the sun, Behind are the neat black pressure of the soldiers pressing a neat gun forest, the sharp long foot, and the chilling murderousness in the sunlight, the sharp horizontal spear made of stainless steel constitutes the second line of defense,

　　

　　 "Kill" the first group of coalition forces has rushed into the narrow mountain between the two mountains

　　

　　 "Crossbowmen, shoot!" With the shout of orders, tens of thousands of Empire crossbowmen stood up from behind the shield wall, their dazzling eyes staring at the long line that was pressed against them like arrows. The clusters of arrows on the crossbow flew into the air at the same time, like a silvery white river waterfall falling from the sky towards the narrow mountains,

　　

　　 "Pay attention to the crossbow!" The front-line coalition lifted the shield, and the behind-the-scenes shooter used a small round shield to form a scale-like protective wall,

　　

　　 Clusters of arrows slammed into the advancing queue of the coalition forces like a storm, and suddenly fell down. The long arrow brought out the whirling airflow, plunging into the body of the target like a rag.

　　

　　 An allied army officer was shot in the middle of the helmet by an arrow. His arrow penetrated from his forehead, the entire head was exploded, and the body rolled over a few meters.
