Whole Nation

~: Two thousand three hundred and seventy-f

The red light of the torch shines on a gorgeous carriage docked in the port. The gilt double-headed eagle coat of arms is reflected in red in the fire light. Aurelio replays the crystal statue in his hands on the table and picks it up. The walking stick on the sofa pushed the door open and got off a gorgeous carriage in the port area. The nose snorted heavily and looked at the large freighter with the Falcon Empire flag flying in the distance. A waiting confidant asked: "Is everything all right? I don't want to leave any sequelae. Although it is my site here, if there is news, there will be some trouble."

"Adults can rest assured that everything is in order"

The Aurelio’s confidant, with a wicked smile on his lips, respectfully replied to him, “The port security office has been blocked for four weeks, and no one will be let in. Just like usual, the other party thinks that we I’m still doing things for the big guys. I dare to ask more. Before dawn, the port is our business group. Even if the whole port is burnt, there will never be a person. We also cleaned up the people in the whole port. , Except for this ship, there are no other merchants in the port now”

"Yeah, I hope so!" Aurelio glanced across the harbor with sails in front of him, thinking that there will be a huge fortune to fall in his hands, he could not help but exhale. "You know what happened tonight, I don't want any wind to spread out! Those people..."

"No problem, they are all directly under the branch smuggling team, led by Captain Fred of the third-level fighters. The team has 15 second-level fighters and 64 first-level fighters. The others are adults. The news of his people just said that the other party is an enemy of an adult, absolutely foolproof!" The confident look said with certainty

"Fred?" Aurelio froze in surprise when he heard that he was a smuggler.

"Adult also knows. The reliability of these guys, all the family members are in the hands of the business group, even if they peel their skins afterwards, they will not say a word!" The heart of the heart and mouth showed a grin. "Smuggling team's Those guys are people who sell their souls, and they are willing to do anything as long as they can get benefits."

"Well. You did well!"

Aurelio nodded, admitting that the confidant was right. These guys are really the best person to handle this kind of thing. Why didn't they think of it? Of course, this cannot be acknowledged at this moment. This man’s ability to do things is getting stronger and stronger. The more secrets he knows, it is a good thing! After this incident, I still had a chance to deal with more insurance. With this money, I should be able to go to a higher level. It is not a problem to enter the headquarters.

"Master Aurelio. Can I start? If the other party only has more than twenty people, I hope to finish it early, to be honest. This is a little overkill!" Fred, the smuggling captain of the business group, walked over and respectfully, with a low profile , His bare head was slightly reddish from the torch, wearing thick short-sleeved scales, and made a loud noise when walking, just like a ghost suddenly appeared at night. The right eye that had been blinded by the slave was not covered. Instead, a striking cross scar was pulled out of the eye socket, it should be no longer closed.

In general, the injured position will try to cover up, but this guy has no meaning to cover up at all. The wounds that have healed are polyps, which are disgusting. There is a blue gem inlaid on the waist. One-handed big machete, with the blade moving coldly and invading, and a small thin leather knife tied to the calf, it is said that at least 30 slaves were peeled by this knife and limp, so that The brass button boots on the feet pressed hard against the road stones of the port, making a gurgling sound, and a **** smell coming from the face, just pressed over,

Aurelio frowned slightly, and immediately took out a white handkerchief to cover his nose, and said in a deep voice, "Fred, I know you are very powerful, but although there are not many people, it should not be a good deal, I am not suitable to come forward. , Please everyone!"

The so-called smuggling team is a special unit of the Double-Headed Eagle Business Group responsible for smuggling. It is the darkest part of the Double-headed Eagle Business Group. The nature of the Double-headed Eagle Business Group is a private business group established to meet the various needs of the Royal Family of Fezer. Therefore, in addition to normal trade, there is a large part of things that cannot be disclosed. The various needs of the royal family, such as the sale of population slaves, the trading of secret items, the handling of prisoners of war, abduction, plunder, revenge slaughter, and those against the royal family The nobles executed secretly, and even transported gold from the farther south. To put it bluntly, what the royal family wants, they must do, and the person responsible for doing this is the merchant smuggling team.

Only the people inside the business group know how dark and **** this force is

The people who have died inside the smuggling team in recent years are said to have exceeded 100,000 people. Even if they are fierce people like Aurelio, they are still shuddering at the actions of the smuggling team that they have seen with their own eyes. These people can no longer be called humans. , Killing is as casual as cutting vegetables. On several occasions, when I saw a slave revolt on the ship, the smuggling team either sealed the cabin directly, then scuttled the whole ship and let the hundreds of people drown alive, or Just pour seawater into a separate cabin until the seawater overflows from the tightly closed iron bar. After an hour, open the upper deck of the cabin, you can see the full manpower of the cabin, floating in the water, and still keeping a desperate thought To grasp the posture of the iron bar above, the unrecognized corpse soaked in seawater undulates on the surface of the water, the feeling is like seeing the evil ghost in hell,

Most of the people who make up this unit are death row prisoners, war mercenaries, and nobles who have committed crimes. In the outside world, these people have been declared dead. Everyone thinks they are dead. These people have entered the smuggling team. On that day, their relatives were already under the supervision of the kingdom power. As long as there were rebels, the whole family would be extinct immediately. If done well, the business group would give their families a certain amount of funds every year, or in some places. Care, so most of the people in the smuggling force will finally choose to accept this fate,

This is the person who is going to die, and he can take care of his loved ones, and he is not satisfied. Of course, it is not without one or two who dare to defect and escape, but the royal family of Fei Ze is pressed on it, even if the other party reveals what is the use! On the contrary, it is the punishment from the business group that will make these people regret running away!

The business group will arrest all the relatives of the defectors, if the other party does not return. Just kill one every day, and then peel off the human skin and hang it on the public square. It is claimed to be the escaped slave who was arrested and punished. Anyway, most people know that the Double-headed Eagle Trade Company is also the largest slave-selling slaver in Fize. Nobody in the business group will have mercy on these escaped slaves, as long as the defectors know. Those are actually his loved ones. The skinning is carried out by special skinning hands. They are handicrafts handed down from generations. They can definitely leave the painful expression of the deceased on it and watch the relatives die tragically. One by one, the newcomers' skins hung up in turn, and the kind of suffering was enough to make every defector go crazy. Finally, he was caught by the merchants and crushed into pieces with stone grinding.

"Adults can rest assured that we must do what we should do, only if we can complete this time..." The smuggling captain Fred's terrible face hesitated and said sincerely, his son was 14 this year Years old. I just graduated from a regional college and studied accounting, if I can get a good recommendation. You will get the opportunity to go to the service of the noble family, it is not superior, but you can also worry about food and clothing,

For a small noble background like Fred, this result is already very good. Fred has submitted a request report to the branch of the business group. At this time, the sub-minister Aurelio found himself. Even if you are daring to do it, you have to do it, let alone just deal with a small problem. Twenty-odd guarded merchant marines were ordered to dress up as pirates and attacked more than double digits. It was just that since the Falcon Empire Navy entered the inland sea, the attack on pirates was unprecedented. , Equipped with considerable weapons, he was recalled

In private, Fred has met his son several times, a young man who is more prosperous than his elder son, his destiny is already doomed, then let the son live on his behalf.

Although the members of the smuggling team have lost their personal freedom, they are also fat in private. Rich smugglers can naturally bring more money to their families. If they can be appreciated by powerful people, they can even bring to the family. Going for an opportunity for promotion, after all, the backstage of the business group is the royal family. With such a huge dependence, many big families in the kingdom will also sell the business group's face,

"Okay, I see. I saw your request and report. I will let the business group come forward to recommend your son to the Buro family in Laurin Province!"

Aurelio was a little impatient, and the voice made by the handkerchief covering her mouth was a little low and vague, but it was still clearly expressed. The smell on Fred was too great, and he lived all year round in smuggling called "floating hell" On the boat, no matter how many times you wash after landing, there will be a heavy smell of dead rot. If this is not the case, these people are needed too much, and you will not even have the mood to talk to these people. The smuggling team is a merchant. The special department in the regiment, even if it is a very important sub-minister, the smuggling department does not need to be too polite,

However, in Luan Sok, as the largest sea trade port in the Kingdom of Fizer, the sub-minister of Aurelio also serves as an identity, that is, one of the people who took over the goods from the headquarters of the business group smuggling, and it is not real power. It is entirely for scheduling coordination, but nominally, it is also labeled as the headquarters,

"So, thank you adults!"

Fred respectfully bowed his salute and slowly backed away. The two sides reached an agreement. He got the promise he wanted and turned around. Fred's scarred hand held the machete in the waist and his eyes were cold.

"Let's start, everyone will kill all, and no one will stay!"

Fred shouted loudly that dozens of heavily armed men and more than 100 affiliated sailors on smuggling ships, although the target of the attack was determined to be only a merchant ship, even if it was the side of an ordinary merchant ship, it was not easy to use brute force The ability is broken, in order to ensure that in case, he even let his men unload a small catapult from the merchant ship smuggling ship,

This catapult was pushed forward by several subordinates. Others pulled out their weapons and followed with a small round shield. The red turban wrapped around his head was blown back by the wind of the port, and it also seemed like The flames stained everyone's eyes. We have one hundred and sixty people, and the other party has only twenty or so. Isn't it a level?

The torches moved closer towards the merchant ship. The entire battleship was kept completely hidden in the darkness under the order, so that the darkness was swollen and gave the other an illusion. This is a prey that is shaking.

"Stop, who are you? A slight trembling sound came from the direction of the merchant ship. It seemed that he was really scared,

"We are the port security team. I suspect that you have contraband on the ship. The people on it immediately put down the ship ladder and were inspected." A tall and strong man stood out from the smuggling team of the business group. He was really wearing the uniform of the port security office. Shouting loudly in the direction of the ship, the other party may be armed merchant ships, this is already clear, and the merchants are generally not brave, if they can calm down the other party. I can easily pretend to be on board and kill all the people on board. I don’t know how many times this has been done. There will be no problems. The smugglers who are familiar with the road are even prepared for their uniforms.

"Put down the boat ladder and accept the inspection. We can guarantee your safety!" A dozen smugglers who had been dressed up stood up and stopped pretending to be about 20 meters away from the mountain forest.

"Port security team? When the other party is a fool for us?" Noras looked at the strong man shouting below. His eyes fell on the opponent's small, slowly advancing catapult, and then he looked at the rows of imperial navy soldiers standing in the dark, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. If it is not a task requirement, you will have been already. . . . . .

Noras heard a sound of rolling and turned around, and saw that several Imperial Navy soldiers were launching an imperial heavy crossbow vehicle flashing from the cabin with metal coldness. The bowstring of the crossbow vehicle had been pulled apart, following the adulthood. A fine iron crossbow arrow, as thick as a human arm, was put into the notch of the crossbow vehicle. Even in the dark night, this chill hit his head. As a former Nord soldier, how could he not know the horror of this weapon. Isn’t it too bullying them? Noras couldn’t help but think

"Adult, in fact, we can absolutely defeat them with absolute force before the other party approaches! There is no need to fully fire."

Steve, an officer of the 4th Squadron of the Imperial Navy, said beside him, watching the fire rushing in the distance like a tide, watching the ugly faces full of cruel greed under the fire, this naval officer also I think it's a little overkill, and mobilizing the imperial navy warships to deal with a group of smugglers, this joke is a little bit off!

"Do you think the Empire has invested so much money, even secretly involving the Admiralty, is it just to save the business alliance gold ticket?" Noras looked at the combatants of the Double-Headed Eagle Merchants who were gradually losing patience in the distance , Said coldly

"This..." Navy officer Steve hesitated. This time the incident was strange at first. As a mid-level officer of the fleet, although he was not exposed to high enough levels, he could perceive it. The storm involved this time is just the beginning, and this is the situation at the beginning. How huge will it really be?

Like the Fourth Fleet, the nine squadrons of the Imperial Navy, the North Sea Fleet are too far away, the Seventh Fleet is being trimmed, the Eighth Fleet is stopped at the Port of Eero deterrence, the Sixth Fleet is in Lisbon, and other divisions in the Inland Sea The fleet was dispatched, mobilizing more than 300 warships of various types, almost spreading towards the southern part of the inland sea with a battle line, and almost thought that this was the man who exerted pressure on the military in the southern part of the imperial navy. There is definitely more than one, but the specific is What, the level of the commander of the squadron has been completely kept secret. I only know that if the situation is out of control, the fleet is granted the power to fire. The firing is possible. The target may be the entire southern area of ​​the Inland Sea. If this is a military operation, it is definitely the Imperial Navy’s own The biggest time since its establishment.

"Have you thought about it, what would it mean if the following two-headed hawk merchant group adopted force against the Imperial Navy?"

Noras's face looked a little excited, and the secret was pressed for too long, which also made people's emotions abnormal. Moreover, this battle plan has reached a super big battle in the range of the entire southern area of ​​the Inland Sea. Unfortunately, Not a soldier, otherwise, this is the capital that I have enough to remember for a lifetime, and some content is turned in his mind

Battle plan "Emperor's Sword"

Planner: Empire Emperor

The goal of the battle is to "kill the chickens and monkeys, destroy the double-headed eagle business group, deter the big southern business group, and at the same time take the opportunity of the fluctuation of the gold ticket of the business alliance~lightnovelpub.net~ to take the opportunity to intervene in the economic lifeline of the six countries in the southern part of the Inland Sea

"What does it mean? Is it... to fight!" Navy officer Steve's face suddenly changed, almost subconsciously blurted out, his hands clenched unconsciously.

"You're right, brave enough to dare to attack the warships of the Imperial Navy. Isn't that a war? As long as the incident tonight erupts, the Imperial Navy has enough excuses to fully kill all inland sea vessels related to the Double-Headed Eagle Merchant Group."

Nolas looked at the two-headed hawk merchant group that had begun to swoop towards the ship's side below, and the tone was cold like ice

"At the same time, the empire will take tough measures to pressure the entire south, demanding that Fezer give an explanation and drag this economic war into military confrontation, but we occupy the righteousness."

Noras’s voice paused, and he smiled. “The empire just wanted to see if Southern Fitzer was desperate to protect a so-called two-headed eagle business group, or chose to abandon this irritating chess piece, and at the same time let the entire southern business group I know that in the face of the absolute control of the empire, their asylum seekers are not as tough as imagined! Moreover, this time the empire was full of money, and 60% of the wealth of all medium-sized chambers of commerce in Fezer is already in our hands. In the hand! As long as the empire is willing, tomorrow will allow countries to enter the winter and wither away" (to be continued)
