Law of the Devil

Chapter 464 [Complete tacit understanding]

In the palace of the palace, the dignitaries of the emperors are whispering, and the Royal Regent has just announced the latest report: the content is exciting and exciting.

However, when the reading was completed, when Chen Huangzi glanced at everyone with a smile, everyone would be a big cockroach, but they would all be ostriches, just sitting in their seats, preferring to talk to each other as if they were It was amazement at the content of the battle report, but no one was openly speaking.

Chen Huangzi smiled. He knew what these people were playing.

"The Duke of Tulips presided over the victory on the eastern front, defeating more than 40,000 enemies, and regaining the enemy's eastern fortress. This battle not only saved the empire's shame and embarrassment of the former fortress's collapse, but also the fortress of the south of the fortress. The territory has lifted the crisis. Moreover, such a victory is also the biggest victory we have achieved in the face of these enemies since the war began."

When Chen Zizi said these words, it was finally the keynote for the evaluation of this big victory.

In the following, you are still snoring in the heart of the whispering conversation.

Ok, the big boss spoke up. Since Chen Huangzi said that this is a great victory, it means great... then this is fixed!

To put it bluntly, if it was in the past, such a victory was related to the popular Duke of Tulips, the news was revealed, and it was naturally everyone’s busy compliments. Because at that time everyone knew that Chen Zizi was extremely trusting Du Wei, the tulip family was almost the one that he held the empire. At that time, everyone in nature was willing to do the icing on the cake.

But now... the situation is different.

The relationship between the tulip family and the royal family has become more and more awkward, saying no and no, saying no evil. In this case. Who dares to talk? God knows what attitude to the tulip family in the heart of Chen’s emperor.

Just say this big win. Victory is a victory, but no one dares to say something to praise first. If the emperor’s heart is uncomfortable, Du Wei, you also openly applaud Du Wei, it is greatly inconvenient.

Seeing that the Emperor Chen first opened his applause, then the following talents quickly applauded.

For a time, the hall was filled with joy.

But then, these praises are always finished. The scene was once again caught in a subtle silence...

Since you have won the battle and have great merits, then, it is logical to conclude that it is a reward.

However, others have said that the closure of Du Wei, how to seal? ?

Give money? Do not make jokes. The Duke of Tulips is already recognized as the richest man in the Empire! Even the Liszt family has become a subsidiary of the tulip family, and the weapon trader Delan Mountain Warcraft has long since boasted.

Promote the official? Du Wei's current official title includes: Imperial Admiral, the theater east line coach. He has the command of the regular army of 200,000 empire.

Going up again? How to rise? Let him be the general manager of the theater? Without saying this, where is General Rostock? Moreover... with the ghost relationship between the tulip family and the royal family, Du Wei went to command the current northern theater of the Empire. Almost the military power of the most elite troops of more than 80% of the Empire?

Who dares to open this mouth to say such a suggestion? ! court death!

So, uplifting?

Du Wei’s title is already the Duke! The Duke, in theory, is already the best title that the courtiers can get. Going up is the prince level. The problem is that unless it is royal. It is impossible to seal the prince.

This is troublesome. If you don't give money, you can't get promoted.

How to reward?

Some people, involuntarily, think of a heart-rending statement:

The merits of the master are high, and there is no reward for it!

None of the people in the place are idiots, at least for the rest of their lives in the big dye tank of the Bohai Sea. No one is not an old fritter, even a younger man like Camisiro. In the past two years, the old prime minister, Rob Schel, has gradually evolved into a trend of small foxes.

Everyone has witnessed the whole process of the rise of Du Wei.

To put it more seriously, the young man of the Duke of Tulips, after his ups and downs, brought the credit to the empire, it is...

Brilliant!

The amazing performance of the coup d'état, if it can only be said to have achieved his personal prestige and established a personal relationship with the regent himself. But then, his contribution to the empire, probably since the Augustine dynasty. No one of the courtiers can match it!

First of all, the "magic sharing spirit" was created. Participated in the establishment of the Imperial Academy of Magic, breaking the magical union's monopoly on magic in one fell swoop. The Imperial Official and the Magic Union have been secretly fighting for many years. The magic union is tough. Even the royal family has a headache.

With the establishment of the Magic Academy and the establishment of the Magic Society, the magical sharing spirit is carried forward, and the Magic Union no longer occupies a monopoly position in the magic field.

This allows the empire to have a way to train magical talents. Although this time the empire's own magical talents have not shown much effect, it is because the time is too short. From the establishment of the School of Magic to the present, there are only a few years, even the first batch of the first batch of students, but only learned a few years of magic, but also can not reach a deeper strength.

But I believe that with the long-term, the role of the School of Magic will become more and more prominent.

In addition, after Du Wei went to the northwest, the defending war in Giliate City successfully defeated the grassland people. Du Wei was sitting in the northwest. The threat of the prairie people to the empire was greatly reduced. Even now, among the high-level empire, some people also It is faint to know that Du Wei intervened in the situation of the grassland and secretly operated. Only in exchange for the current internal consumption of the grassland people, unable to take care of the situation.

There is also ... annihilation of the Northwest Army's separatist rebellion war, that battle, the tulip family was the first!

And... I created the epoch-making air force!

And... In the three years of preparation, Du Wei has paid for his own money and donated at least 50 million gold coins. Support the empire's finances and military expenses!

As for the other small credits of 7788, they have not yet been listed!

Now, on the eastern front, such a huge military skill has been established...

Now?

This is a problem.

How to reward, this is a problem!

The silence of the people made the hall once again caught in a strange atmosphere.

Finally, at this time, Camisiro coughed and snorted. The crowd immediately turned their eyes to the young military minister. Everyone knows that this Camisiro is not only the shackles of the regent king, but also the old prime minister behind him.

"His Royal Highness." Camisirro's voice was very clear, and his tone was frank. He said: "I think that the Duke of Tulips is a good time to defeat the enemy on the eastern front, but now we have not reached the point where we can really sit back and relax. According to me. I saw the detailed report presented to the military, although we conquered the fortress. However, because the enemy had destroyed and demolished the fortress in the past, and the fire attack of the Duke of Tulips in this war. Although I regained the fortress, but I got the hand, it was just a ruin."

Having said that, he quickly added: "Of course. I definitely have no way to deny the credit of the Duke of Tulips! Just as a military minister, from a military point of view, the urgent task now is to refine us. The defense system on the Eastern Front! Very urgent. Now we are faced with two choices!"

The eyes of Chen Huangzi are bright: "Go ahead."

"First." Camisiro opened his voice, wide in the hall, his confident voice drifting: "Because the fortress has become a ruin, without any value and role of stationing, can not play an effective defense role. I am afraid that the East Line troops will still have to retreat to Yajincheng. We must mobilize more materials and manpower as soon as possible to further strengthen and expand Yajincheng! Make it a new solid military base on the Eastern Front. The advantages of this option are: Yajincheng is the current city. As long as it is reinforced and expanded, it is not necessary to invest too much in time, cost and manpower. The flaw is: Yajin City is geographically backward after all, once our army returns to Akin, it is equal to The control of the territory of the north of Yajin City was given up. Moreover, the defensive nature of Yakin City lacks the overall effect and can only be regarded as a stronghold. In theory, the enemy can bypass the Yajin City to carry out our territory. Harassment or sneak attack is not very likely, but after all, the enemy we face is not human, but some monster race. We can't be normal. Human way of thinking to measure them. "

Everyone who said something nodded.

Especially think of those savage races. Bypassing the frontline strongholds, the soldiers rushed to the territory of the imperial territory to harass or sneak attack...

even. In theory, as long as the other party dares to fight for the loss and send a large number of highly mobile wolf cavalry to raid, they may even flow around the emperor!

This is definitely not an alarmist. If the other party is trying to lose thousands of wolves, it will flow into the interior of the empire, not seeking strategic goals, but just killing and looting... Heaven knows whether those barbaric races will be made.

This kind of thing, although it may not cause real harm to the emperor or the empire, but once this happens, whether it is the turmoil of the people, or the face and dignity of the empire, the royal family is absolutely not allowed to have such consequences! !

It is conceivable that if one day in the future, a wolf cavalry suddenly flows outside the city of the Imperial City, killing and looting, even if it is finally smashed by the empire's mobilization army... But once that happens, how much will it cause? Panic and people's turmoil? ! If this happens, it is definitely a shame for the empire!

"The second choice." Camisiro coughed and smiled bitterly: "We must rebuild the eastern fortress that was taken back. Because of its geographical location, it is the best in terms of strategic defense! The problem is, The fortress has almost become a ruin, the destruction of the enemy and the burning of the fire, and according to the detailed report I have seen, especially the damage to the north wall is particularly serious, almost removed by the other party more than half! Although the fire burned It will not shake the foundation of the building, but it is not an easy task to rebuild."

After a pause, he smiled a bit: "Not to mention, the enemy is now on the north bank of the river. And we have lost control of the river! The enemy has control of the river, once we can imagine the reconstruction of the fortress, even if we can imagine The enemy is stupid again. It won't let us finish this thing smoothly. They will harass and counterattack! Lose the river, our defense lacks layers, the enemy can cross the river and directly attack the fortress we are rebuilding... Work, there are people around the chaos, such reconstruction, I just think about it, I feel that the scalp is numb."

He talked slyly. At the end of the day, everyone in the hall was silent, and for a moment, the birds were silent, and they were looking at the head of the prince.

The emperor, who was sitting on the throne, had no other expression on his face. It seems to be still calm, and after a moment of indulging, I gently said: "This matter is discussed in detail... This is the case today. Camisiro left, other people are scattered."

In addition to Camisiro. When the other big men left the land, they were still whispering as they walked.

It’s just the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The old man said nothing today. After he walked out of the main hall, he turned around and looked at the hall behind him. He saw the figure of Camisiro, who still stayed in the main hall. He couldn’t help but wrinkle slightly. frown.

There is a good relationship with him, and he sees him stop. I smiled casually: "Why, lost something?"

The Chancellor of the Finance smiled and shook his head: "I just thought that the cooperation between our military minister and the Regent is really more and more tacit."

"How do you say that?" The same blink of an eye.

The Chancellor of the Treasury shook his head, and he smiled and said goodbye.

Hey... Camisiro. You are snoring. Deliberately throwing out the "two choices" puzzle, using this tricky thing. Attracted everyone's attention, but cleverly shifted the topic!

The original topic was "the front line was a big victory, how to reward it." When Camisiro finished speaking, it became a "frontline crisis, how to solve it."

Of course, this little trick, some old foxes can't see it, but they are all smart and keep silent. The most important thing is that it seems that the Regent is very cooperative.

In the study of Chen Huangzi, Camisiro presented a detailed report from his arms. This battle report is much more detailed than the one that was read by the Emperor Chen at the meeting. Including all the details of this war, the war, the stalemate, the final victory, and so on, the level of detail, is almost a text broadcast.

Obviously, in addition to the official official channels, in the army of the northern theater, there is another intelligence transmission channel of the military's own internal secret system.

"What do you think of Du Wei's new recruits?" Chen Huangzi sat back in his seat: "The Griffin Knight?"

Camisiro is speechless.

Chen Huangzi smiled first, but this smile was not easy. His voice was filled with emotion: "This Du Wei is always amazing! He is like a magician, pulling out a hat." A rabbit, God knows what is hidden in his hat."

"His Royal Highness." Camisiro cautiously reminded him: "Du Wei is a magician himself."

"Well, I know." Chen Huangzi nodded and sank a bit. When he looked up, his face was dignified: "The Griffin Knight does not say for the time being. We have estimated that this type of service is expensive and scarce, and it is impossible to It was his thunder ride... This Duvi’s hidden cavalry, the explosive power that broke out, really surprised me.”

Ten thousand Thunder rides, in the field, the frontal charge, the orcs beat the helmet and unloading this, but any army of humans before can never do it!

"His Royal Highness, you are worried..." Camisiro said very carefully.

"No, I am just curious." The Regent suddenly smiled. His smile was very calm: "Don't I be curious? Du Wei's men have mastered too many strengths that I don't know, as an empire. Master, I am surprised if I have no interest in it."

Looking at the calm smile of the Regent, above the handsome face, the smile is as elegant as ever, the eyes are wise, exuding a confidence that everything is controlled.

Camisiro sighed in his heart, but his face looked fearless. He quickly bowed his head: "His Highness, I don't mean this. I mean... I need to fully understand it! I can't guess it so far. How the strange cavalry was formed. Some of the warrior experts in the military also went through many days of research and never figured out how this strange giant horse was made..."

"The court magician can't figure it out." Chen Huangzi smiled: "But the only certainty is that it is different from the Griffin Knight... This kind of thunder ride, as an army with strong combat power, can be built in large numbers. !! This is what attracts me."

Camisiro bit his teeth: "Maybe... we can find a way to check in the northwest..."

"No need." Chen Huangzi immediately shook his head and vetoed this suggestion. He deliberately looked at Camisiro deeply: "Is your brain a little sluggish? Actually say this advice. Du Wei's confidentiality measures I have been doing very well, and the northwest has already become his base camp. It has deep roots. We didn’t have any news before, so if you deliberately check it now, do you think you can hide him? What's more, do this kind of thing. Wouldn't it be chilling?"

Camisiro quickly nodded and said: "Yes, Your Highness! I was wrong."

Chen Huangzi stared at the shackles carefully for a while, his eyes flashed with deep light, and then the light converges, regaining a relaxed and calm smile: "In fact, this thing does not have to be too much in my heart. I am only Curious. After all, this amazing thunder ride, I am really amazed... If such a powerful army empire can be built in large numbers..."

He shook his head again and looked at Camisiro again. "You don't have any doubts about Du Wei. From my understanding of Du Wei... He is now willing to open such a card openly, but it is a good thing. Imagine that if the country is in a difficult position, he will not use it to hide such a powerful force. Then this unit is not used to deal with the orcs, but who is it to deal with?"

In the end, this sentence was a bit of a heartfelt meaning. When Camisiro heard it, he suddenly had a cold sweat! !

That's right! The establishment of the army is used to fight! If Du Wei didn't take it out against the orc this time, but hide it... Who would he want to deal with with such a powerful army? !

Deal with... Empire? Royal?

Camisiro prevents himself from continuing to think!

"He is willing to come out and is also disguised to convey a message to us: he has no selfishness."

Looking at the emperor Chen said so easily and calmly, Camisiro closed his mouth and silenced.

Later, Chen Huangzi confessed a few things at random, let Camisiro leave the detailed report before he told him to leave.

After Camisiro left, the door of the study was closed, and the Emperor Chen leaned back in the chair, but he sighed deeply. The self-confidence and calmness of the moment just turned into a shallow anxiety!

"It means that you have no selfishness... This is certainly one of your intentions, Du Wei..." Chen Huangzi snorted, but said to himself: "There is another intention, it is to demonstrate to me... Show your Strength? Is that true?"

Chen Huangzi squeezed his forehead hard.

Du Wei, he knows, don't know about my condition?

know? do not know? Still know that the installation does not know?
