Chapter 366 Sudden Event
Irina did not directly answer Ambassador Wang's inquiry, but just said: "The Mentoje family used to be the backbone of the empire. They led the army to conquer the entire Stuttgar continent and were the powerful force of the first generation of Emperor Mavia. One of the go-getters..." "Then are they now being used by Her Majesty the Queen?" Wang Haiqi asked with a chuckle. Seeing Irina shaking her head slightly, he stood up immediately: "I understand." "They are the old aristocrats of the empire, and they did not make any dissatisfaction during the whole process of my coming to the throne..." Irina still seemed a little undecided. Wang Haiqi said with a half-smile: "But they didn't express their support for your ascension to the throne, right? When Duke Rono rebelled, they were probably on the side of the Duke." "As expected of the old nobles of the empire, they have mastered the skills of standing in line. No matter how the empire changes, they can always stand firm." Queen Irina stared at Wang Haiqi for a few seconds, and then said: "Ambassador Wang might as well say it directly if he has something to say." "After the association's merger plan is finalized, we will definitely implement it according to the plan. It may be discussed at the beginning. If it goes well, we will compensate the merged area according to a certain proportion, or give them Nanjin The right to use the houses in the new city..." Wang Haiqi said in a deep voice: "Of course there are unsatisfactory situations - such as meeting those so-called old nobles you just mentioned."
"If the situation is too bad, we will also choose to use some special means." Queen Irina was silent for a few seconds. She knew very well how powerful the association's methods were. If she really wanted to fall out, she would not talk about the old noble Mentoje family. In summary, the entire Coman Empire would be destroyed in an instant. Ashes and smoke!
"I will send someone to take care of these things." Irina said to Ambassador Wang: "When will the plan be officially announced?" "In the next week or so." Irina nodded, and immediately said to Ambassador Wang: "Just in case, I need to mobilize part of the Imperial Legion to prepare for battle - the Mentoje family has always raised a lot of private soldiers. Due to the old I have always turned a blind eye to the status of nobles and their taxes since I came to the throne, and I have not raised any objections to this." "Need help from the outpost?" "This is an internal matter within the empire, so I won't bother you anymore." Ambassador Wang was about to leave, but was stopped by Queen Irina again: "In a few days, I will go to a nearby military camp to conduct a review. I hope that the outpost can send a delegation to come, and so will those guys. Trained by you." "I have taken note of it, Your Majesty." Ambassador Wang nodded slightly, "I will inform the base of this matter when I return." "Then I'll trouble the Ambassador." "You're too kind." Looking at Ambassador Wang's leaving figure, the expression of Queen Irina, who had been smiling, gradually turned cold. She knew very well what the Outpost wanted to do. The merger and increase in production were all to obtain more resources on the Stuttgar continent. Although the Outpost promised that the commission points to the Empire would also increase accordingly, she could Queen Irina was still quite resistant to this in her heart. After all, more than 90% of the mines developed at the outpost at this time were once exclusive to the Coman Empire!
In order to expel the orcs and reunify the entire Coman Empire as soon as possible, the princess Irina resolutely signed relevant treaties with the outpost. Looking at the contents of these treaties now, they are somewhat outrageous. But the situation was urgent at that time, and Irina even believed that if strong foreign aid did not come in, the empire would be destroyed in an instant... At present, with the help of the power of the outpost, Irina has successfully grasped the highest power of the Coman Empire and ascended to the position that countless Coman people dream of. She also has to implement the contents of the treaty in an orderly manner. The outpost is so powerful that it suffocates everyone in the Coman Empire!
If she suddenly turns her back and refuses to acknowledge the contents of the previously signed treaty, she may be directly expelled from the throne in the next second, and then the outpost will find an "easy to control" descendant of the Mavia royal family to take over. Thinking of this, Irina smiled bitterly. She slowly walked back to her throne. This position may seem like a beautiful place, but in fact the pressure she has to bear is multi-faceted and huge. She needs to coordinate the relationship between the empire and the association. This middle position is very difficult. If you are trying to please, both parties will be dissatisfied.
The Coman Empire is now in a difficult stage of recovery. The population is withering and everything is in ruins. If there is another major war or change, the entire empire may not be able to support it. After the outpost appeared, apart from having a great interest in the land and mineral resources on the Stuttgar continent, it almost never directly intervened in the internal affairs of the empire. Every time, Irina sent someone to invite the outpost. Biancai will free up some personnel to come to provide key assistance. Thinking of this, the expression on Irina's face became much more relaxed. Although the outpost is like a sharp sword hanging above their heads, at least this sword will help them kill the enemy when they need it. Normally, they can get enough benefits by relying on the power of the sword. For example, after arriving at the outpost, it was easy to do what generations of rulers of the Coman Empire had been unable to do - feed everyone. The outposts don't do anything fancy. They improve the crops grown on the ground and use their cutting-edge technology to make exclusive improvements to each piece of land. As a result, the Coman Empire had a bumper harvest last year, the first in the hundreds of years since the empire was founded. This is the first time I have obtained such a quantity of food! Not to mention the improved fruits and vegetables brought by the advance arrival of the outpost, the various industrial products and innovative technologies... 'If we get along with each other according to the current model, it is not unacceptable. ' The Queen sat on a chair in the palace and murmured softly that the origin of the outpost was quite mysterious. She only knew that it came out of the Forest of Forgotten. The huge building complex was hidden in the Forest of Forgotten. It was natural. A barrier, a paradise-like place... At this moment, an intelligence officer came in from outside. The guard stopped him. A guard came to report the situation. Only then did Irina come to her senses and motioned for the intelligence officer to be let in. "His Majesty." The intelligence officer knelt down on one knee towards Queen Irina, and immediately heard the Queen's voice: "Have you finished what I asked you to do?" "The humble duties have been completed, and in accordance with His Majesty's request, I have also left people in those places to spy on information. Those key personnel are also under our close surveillance." "You did very well." Irina said in a deep voice, "I need accurate news to be delivered throughout the day. Next, you will be responsible for delivering this kind of news. I want to know what those old guys do and eat every day. It’s crystal clear.” "Yes!" She waved her hand towards the intelligence officer below, who immediately bowed and evacuated without any hesitation. Irina waved to the attendant not far away again. The attendant immediately knelt down on one knee and listened carefully to Her Majesty the Queen's orally transmitted holy words. After a while, the attendant immediately stood up and left, and Irina breathed a sigh of relief. "Your Majesty, when will we go to the military camp?" The senior attendant who was responsible for arranging the itinerary asked at the right time. The queen waved her hand casually and said: "Let's look at the arrangements. When the time comes, we will go with the delegations from the outpost, and we need to ask them if they are available." The time is right.” The attendant was stunned for a moment, then nodded meaningfully, but no longer inquired about the matter. …… The news that Queen Irina was going to the military camp to review the legion's training results soon spread throughout the royal capital, and the training at the military camp became increasingly tense. Irina soon received a receipt message from the outpost, and finally set the review time for tomorrow afternoon. The time came in a blink of an eye, and the outpost sent a delegation of six people and three senior officers. All six people were wearing the latest upgraded power armor, but the three senior legions in the delegation were only wearing regular military uniforms. . The leader of the team was a senior colonel, and his deputies were a lieutenant colonel and a major, which gave Irina enough face. Irina greeted everyone in the delegation enthusiastically, and then they got on the minibus heading to King Selia City. The members of the delegation were actually very unfamiliar to Irina. The members of the delegation that she was familiar with before were said to have been pulled back to rotate their positions. After a while, Irina found that the people in the outpost that she was familiar with were rotated. , making it almost impossible for her to obtain more information by building relationships...
The military camp is located in the northwest corner of Selia City. Chen Lin had seen a flying dragon breeding site in another city before. The smell was really unpleasant. Celia City itself also has a flying dragon breeding place. In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the flying dragon cavalry, all major cities with conditions had this thing. However, the situation has been greatly improved now. After the planning and reconstruction of Selia City, the original breeding grounds were moved to the periphery, and the area was re-expanded and transformed into a pure military training ground. As soon as everyone got off the minibus, a group of soldiers from the Coman Empire rushed over. They ignored the warnings of the soldiers in the delegation and stood around them. "What is this doing?" The senior colonel in the delegation raised his hand to signal the soldiers behind him not to shoot rashly. He asked Irina: "Are you worried about our safety, and you have given us bodyguards?" Irina seemed a little angry at this time. She gave the person next to her a look, and the person immediately ran over to a few people in the distance. Soon the soldiers surrounding them withdrew... "This is considered special protection given by them, but I think it's quite stupid to do so." Irina helplessly explained to the delegation, but several people in the delegation didn't care at all. They just smiled and said: "We have our own people to protect, and we don't need your people." "That's true." Irina waved in the direction of the minibus, and immediately a group of people ran over from a distance - it was the bodyguard group she personally selected. They were all women, numbering about fifty, and equipped with All of them are special devices bought from the outpost, such as carbon steel weapons, stab-proof clothing and bulletproof shields and other high-end goods. "Let's go." The delegation looked at Irina who was surrounded by people, and they suddenly had a helpless thought - they were a little too nervous. Shouldn't the soldiers in these legions be all their own? Why does Irina always feel like she is guarding against these people! However, they did not ask this question directly, they just followed the crowd towards the military camp. "Something's wrong...where's the person who's hosting us?" Everyone followed Irina for a while, and suddenly noticed this. After the previous wave of people withdrew, no one came to receive them!
This is the ruler of the empire, Her Majesty Queen Irina, who is here in person. Logically speaking, everyone in the legion should be directly gathered to welcome him!
"Something's not right." "alert!" Following the major officer's low shout, the six powered armor warriors behind him immediately entered combat mode. They quickly lowered their bodies and spread out, and the electromagnetic weapons in their hands quickly began to charge energy. "The military camp is a bit weirdly quiet. No matter how busy it is, it won't be so quiet...Don't they do training or training?" Irina also frowned slightly. Her intuition told her that there must be a problem in some link. The people around her immediately prepared to go to the front to inquire about the situation. However, before they walked out, they noticed an empire general in the distance hurriedly leading a few people. A soldier ran out. As he ran, he said apologetically to the Queen: "I'm so sorry, Your Majesty, the training camp is at a critical moment. We really can't escape here. The personnel have been gathered now and are waiting for you to come in person. ” Irina recognized that this general was called Ferrico. He was promoted from behind and controlled half of the legion, about 10,000 people. "How did you come?" She stared at Felico and said suspiciously: "Where is the commander-in-chief of the royal capital? I came here in person, but the commander-in-chief didn't even come in person. Instead, a young general like you was asked to receive him?" Ferrico was nervously showing his goodwill to the delegation at this time. With an innocent smile on his face, he stretched out his hand to the senior colonel standing in front and introduced himself by his name. Several motivations around him who were originally on guard The armored warriors were also asked to put down their firearms, and returned to their teams to stand at the back. But before the colonel smiled and stretched out his hand to shake his hand, he saw the guy with an innocent smile in front of him suddenly raised his hand. He lowered his head in surprise and saw that the left side of his chest was directly pierced - it was a hidden blade, one of the weapons commonly used for assassinations in the Coman Empire.
"Everyone in the outpost deserves death!" Ferrico suddenly raised his left hand, violently preparing to attack the lieutenant colonel next to him. The long-lost gunshot sounded first, and his entire body was blown to pieces with one shot! The next second, the soldiers behind Ferico seemed to smell the smell of blood. They each pulled out weapons and blades from under their clothes and attacked Irina and the delegation like crazy!
The situation changes suddenly! (End of this chapter)
