Law of the Devil

Chapter 626 [Gabri]

It was not until the sixth day after the victory report of the front line reached the Imperial Capital that the resolution on this reward was finally conveyed from the palace.

The officers on the eastern front, the outstanding officers in the battle, were all on the list submitted by the Duke of Tulips, and they were rewarded by the Imperial Military Law. There is nothing unexpected about the rest of the soldiers who are rewarded with military merit.

The only thing that pays attention to everyone is the reward for Du Wei himself.

Under the premise that both the official and the knight have reached the top, everyone is guessing what the Regent is going to take to deserve Du Wei.

Is it... the prince? Or the Canadian title?

Both seem unlikely. The Prince is a direct agency of the royal family. And the marshal... a 20-year-old marshal? Moreover, Du Wei’s qualifications are still far from sufficient.

However, when the details of the reward are announced, everything will be understood.

It seems that the first and foremost beneficiary is Du Wei’s younger brother, the Earl of Gaolin, the Earl of the Rollin family. Because of his outstanding performance in the battle, Gabri was directly awarded the rank of Major General. This is a jump reward. Gabri was only a rider before. If he was promoted according to the normal trajectory, he should be promoted to the level of leadership (this is already the speed that the aristocrats usually enjoy), and this time, skipping the commander level and directly rising to the level. General level.

Everyone knows that this is a kind of disguised reward for Du Wei: Since you can't raise your Du Wei's official, then simply raise your brother. Anyway, your brother and family are the same, and everyone is the same.

It’s not such a big battle, but the official position of Gabriel’s jump is not enough. The reward for Du Wei’s own person becomes...

manor.

Calderon Province, a province located in the southern part of the empire. It is not too far away from the famous southern swamps of the mainland, and is famous for producing several southern fruits.

The reward for Du Wei is to draw a population of 250,000 in the province of Calderon, which covers three cities and 16 surrounding villages and towns. As a new territory of Du Wei!

Calculated by income, these three cities, together with the population of 250,000 in the surrounding 16 villages and towns, can bring about 80,000 gold coins (including the fruit trade tax) to Duwei every year.

In terms of area, this block is located in the southernmost part of the Calderon province, accounting for about a quarter of the province.

......

This is an "enclave."

The emperors are all great. After learning about the content of the reward, the first thought that came out of my heart was like this.

Everyone knows that the Duke of Tulips’ base camp is in the northwestern province of Desa, and the province of Desa is operated by Duwei for several years. It has become a sphere of influence of the tulip family and relies on the border of the grassland. A large number of taxation of the Chamber of Commerce caravans, as well as trade in various materials to and from the grasslands. Cattle, sheep, horses, horses, etc., can get a considerable income every year.

In the northwest, Du Wei’s prestige is extremely high, with money and soldiers in his hands.

but. This new enclave is thousands of kilometers away from the Duweidi base camp. Du Wei got this piece of land, how does he go to business? Too far from the northwest, his original power is beyond his reach. Even if you want to go to business. However, he could not give up the base camp in the northwest. The main strength must take into account the old nest in the northwest. Then this new land is bound to be unable to invest too much energy to operate...

"A brilliant move."

This is the consensus of every emperor's big heart. The means of the Regent King is very brilliant!

Such a reward, that is, to satisfy the need for the reward of the military merits, if there is no reward for the Hehe military, it will be cold to the heart of the frontline. Such a reward also limits to a large extent that the Duweidi forces will not expand further.

And Du Wei himself. After receiving the reward order from the Imperial Capital, after reading it, I just smiled and said that there was no dissatisfaction. I accepted the reward very happily and even invited the emperor of the emperor to eat a meal. Also presented a gift of value.

The Duke is very satisfied that this is the news brought back by the messenger. However, everyone knows that this is mostly just a representation on Du Wei’s face.

just now. everybody knows. The Regent is already working to limit the power of the Duke of Tulips.

......

"I am really satisfied, who said that I am not happy?"

in the evening. In Du Wei’s own tent, he looked at the younger brother: “Do you think I should be dissatisfied? This is three cities and sixteen villages and towns, a large piece of land. There are already quite a few. The territory is close to the south. Swamp. After the empire can't hunt Warcraft from the frozen forest, the Southern Marsh will be the only area to hunt for Warcraft, where you get a territory, we can develop a lot of business."

"But..." Gabriel looked at his brother as if nothing had happened, he frowned: "Brother!"

"What do you want to say?" Du Wei raised his eyelids and glanced at his brother.

"I..." Gabri took a deep breath, and the young man took the courage to look at his brother. He seemed to hesitate and slowly gritted his teeth: "Brother, I am not a child."

"Of course you are not." Du Wei's tone is still very relaxed: "You are already an adult. Look, you are now an imperial major. I am giving you a headache for the official position. Since the rank is a major general, then you should I am qualified to direct a division, but I think that you are still too young now, you need to sharpen, so I am not going to give you a division, but to transfer an infantry regiment to command you. Authority."

"I don't care about this." Gabriel shook his head, his eyes stunned, and suddenly he went to the tent's mouth, looked out a few times, pulled down the curtain of the tent, came to Du Wei's face, approached, whispered: "Brother, I am not a child. Some things, we can say it directly! You don't have to be alone!"

"What to say?" Du Wei smiled.

Gabriel hesitated, his eyes flashed a glimpse, and finally lowered his voice, his voice is very low, but no doubt. The tone is very firm:

"Brother, I have never liked the royal family!"

Du Wei's heart moved, his brow involuntarily picked it up. He stared at his brother's eyes, but found that his eyes were hesitant without any hesitation, showing the young people's perseverance: "What do you mean?"

Gabriel sullenly said: "How did the father die, I will not forget!"

This sentence is said. Du Wei looked at his younger brother's face. After a few months of military career, a trace of childishness has gradually faded away. The younger brother is already a resolute young man!

Seeing that Du Wei does not speak, Gabriel has a heart!

"Brother! My father's illness is because of the knot, it is heart disease! He is depressed and finally, I understand this very well! Yes, our family is involved in the coup... But what is the coup itself? It is the royal family. Internal struggle for power! Our family is just a wrong camp. The great prince and the prince of Chen have seized the position and can fight for it. They are all royals. Fathers are just selling their lives."

Gabri said, he clenched his fists: "I know. The winner is the king, the loser is the sorrow! This truth I understand that the father's camp lost, the family lost. This is nothing to say..."

Speaking of this, his voice increased slightly, staring at Du Wei's eyes: "But I know my father, it is because of this!!"

Du Wei is silent.

He has always ignored the mind of his younger brother. Sure enough, when I mentioned the royal family, Gabriel’s eyes showed a deep disgust at the moment.

"you……"

"I don't have any thoughts." Gabriel shook his head. "If it was a few months ago, I wouldn't say it. I will hide these ideas in my heart. After all, the family can recover, I am very lucky. I will work hard. Revitalize the Luolin family. Peace of mind as a count, even if I don't like the royal family in my heart, but at least, I will try to play my role. On the surface, I will not reveal my emotions."

"You said ‘if’.” Du Wei smiled softly: “So what do you mean now?”

"I am not a blind man. It is not a blind man. It is not a fool." Gabriel stared at Du Wei's eyes, and he opened his hands. Suddenly said: "Brother, these months, the relationship between you and the royal family has changed subtly. I can see that! The Wangcheng Guards went to the northwest to confront your private army. That happened. At the time, I was in the college, I can feel that in those days, the people around me looked at my eyes differently! Even, earlier... You handed over the Northwest Independent Division and handed over the Northwest Military and Political Secretary. The authority, but when the dean of the military academy began from that time, I already began to understand! The royal family seems to be interesting to start with you! Even if it is not now, but has begun to test you!"

Looking at his brother's eyes, Gabriel's voice was a little hoarse. His eyes were full of solitude and perseverance, and in that tone, it was...

Du Wei sighed. He closed his eyes and thought for a moment: "What do you want me to do?"

"I have no hope." Gabriel shook his head, but his next sentence made Du Wei really surprised!

Gabriel said: "Brother, if you want to do anything... whatever it is, any choice of you! I will definitely support you!"

Looking at his brother's excited expression, Du Wei seemed to smile. He walked over to the tent, stretched his fingers, and gently stroked the burning fire candle. His fingertips seemed to sweep over the flames, feeling the trace. Feel hot...

"What do you mean, rebellion?"

Du Wei smiled lightly, and his expression seemed to be easy, but he casually said the word "rebellion" and said it was so relaxed and careless.

Although his eyes were peaceful, it seemed to make Gabriel feel a bit heavy, but the young man did not dodge, he gritted his teeth: "If there is that day, I am standing by your side!"

After saying this, Gabri picked up his helmet from the table and put it on. After he was right, he nodded to Du Wei and turned to leave.

"and many more."

When Gabri came to the tent, Du Wei opened his brother.

"I ask you a question, you answer me honestly." Du Wei looked at his brother's eyes: "On that day, at the banquet in the palace... You invited Muse to dance, is it intentional?"

Gabri stopped his footsteps. He thought about it and looked at Du Wei: "I really like Muse... But I admit, I don't like the royal family, including the little emperor. So, at that time, I have some Some deliberate thoughts."

"So, do you want me to rebel?" Du Wei was calm and calm, his eyes were calm and he looked at his brother.

"That's your choice." Gabriel shook his head: "Brother, I will listen to you in my life! But what I want to say is: If the royal family has already made up their mind to deal with you, then... you can't continue to hesitate. It!"

Gabri strode out of the tent and the curtain fell. Du Wei had a long sigh and a sigh of smile on his lips.

Sixteen years old! Sixteen-year-old brother!

Now the little guy is thinking about something...

He forgot that according to the age of the world, he was only twenty years old.

"I only know how my father died!"

Thinking of Gabriel’s words, Du Wei suddenly felt a little headache.

This child... I think too much in my heart. This may not be a good thing.

I have been painstakingly thinking about it, I hope that Gabri’s life can be simpler and simpler. I don't want him to fall into the complicated power struggle. He prefers to be the umbrella of his brother.

But now it seems that although his younger brother is young, he also has his own ideas...

The dance with Muse... It was deliberate!

What does he want to do? Young impulse? still is……

Thinking of this, Du Wei refused to continue thinking about it. He did not want to imagine this younger brother as the kind of person who thought deeply about the city.
