Chapter 1410 Chaos Land
Although no one knows whether the Southeast Peninsula is really so valuable or not, politically speaking, it is enough for the two countries to take action.
The two countries that are mortal enemies cannot give up the Southeast Peninsula themselves, so that the other party can occupy a new province for nothing.
Of course, it is even more impossible for them to add a main battlefield to a place with no value. Therefore, after some temptation, both countries abandoned the Southeast Peninsula aside in a tacit understanding.
Of course, the two countries will never allow the Southeast Peninsula to take advantage of themselves with all their strengths. Therefore, they deliberately support multiple forces on this peninsula and intend to unite to remove those forces that have taken the opportunity to grow up healthily because they are not interested.
After a few times, the Southeast Peninsula was as powerful as it is now, which surprised the two major powers that caused the culprits.
At this point, the two major countries have completely let go and let them die.
The southeastern half of the peninsula is close to a coastal area in the Haiquan Province of the Augustan Empire. It has a building based on stone and wood, with a height of more than ten meters and a circumference of about one thousand meters, and a height of about one thousand meters.
Surrounding this building is a dense thatched house. Of course, there are occasionally several large houses with glazed tiles.
When you see these, you will know that the strange-shaped building is the castle where the main brains of this area are living.
However, although this castle is not as good as the county town of the August Empire, it is considered a strong city on this southeastern peninsula. This castle has a nice name, Mingyue City.
At this moment, the first person in the tallest building in Mingyue City was a strong man with a fierce and fierce look on his face. He said to an equally tough man standing in front of him: "What's going on with those Peter and the other two? It's been a few days. It's been thirteen days now. Why haven't the dock been reopened yet? Are they going to betray the covenant?"
The strong man had a shrewdness that was inconsistent with his appearance. He smiled and bowed, "Lord, Peter and Kate are in trouble. They sent someone to attack a major lord who occupied the smuggling line, but they were wiped out, which made them feel a headache."
For some reason, the city lord smiled when he heard Peter's failure.
"A major can occupy the smuggling route and even make people wipe out the attackers sent? Peter and Kate are really useless. How many people did Kate send?"
The following sentence, you can tell that it was a casual question based on the city lord's inadvertent appearance.
"Lord, according to the information, there are only seven or eight hundred people on the other side, and Kate sent two brigades." said the strong man.
"Oh, that major's troops are so powerful that they can win a complete victory with less than five or six hundred people on the other side? Are you sure that the major has no background?" the city lord asked, touching his chin.
The strong man said, "My subordinates can only find out that he has no background at all. If it is not true, then he is hiding too deeply. However, the ministers guess it should be the former. After all, people with backgrounds cannot stay in the major to lead the development territory."
The city lord sighed and said, "Well, we are not imperial people anyway, so we don't have to care about so many things. Now that the smuggling line is broken, we have a backlog of goods here, and merchants have all their opinions. If it is not opened as soon as possible, our funds will be short of money, and everything we do requires money. Just to prevent those two guys from knowing that we only have one source of goods, we can only endure it. After all, we act like we have several sources of goods in front of them."
"So can we encourage a few bandits to attack the major leader?" asked the strong man.
"Of course, I'm also ignoring Kate and the others' face. If the smuggling dock falls into my hands, those two guys will definitely not dare to whine when they distribute dividends!
"This matter will be left to you, but those bandits have lower combat effectiveness than those two brigades of Kate. Remember to encourage more." The city lord smiled.
"yes."
When the strong man was about to retreat, a carrier pigeon flew in.
The city lord asked the strong man to stay. After reading the letter carried by the carrier pigeon, he handed the letter to the strong man and said with a smile: "Peter, Kate must have been caught by the major, otherwise he would not ask if he wanted the major to join. Humph, look at the tone in the letter, and it almost implies that I must let the major join."
"Lord, how did you decide? They are local snakes." asked the strong man.
"Haha, of course I agree. After all, it doesn't matter if we have a transaction like this, there are more than one person or less." The city lord smiled.
"Since that's the case, do we still need to let those bandits attack the major leader?" the strong man asked again.
"Of course, continue to attack. I also hope that they can occupy that place. If the major does not lose the territory, they have to leave obediently. Moreover, when we occupy the dock, we can occupy the majority of the dividends." said the city lord.
The strong man hesitated: "But this is not..."
If he didn't come out of the word "returning his word", how could he agree to join the group and send someone to attack?
"I know what you want, but don't forget the conditions offered by that person last time. Although I have a long relationship with Peter and others, I have to change my partner in order to make my family jump-start development. Anyway, no one sells it?"
When the city lord arrived here, he saw the strong man's expression of thinking, waved his hand and smiled: "Of course, this is also a temptation. If the major cannot stop the bandits, he will not have the ability to cooperate with us. If he has strong abilities, I am willing to continue to cooperate with my old partners.
"You just reply and agree and let Peter and the others gather in the Major Leader in ten days. We are separated from the Major Leader in a sea area. The bandits can rush up in half a day. Ten days are enough to make the untouchables fight back and forth."
The strong man who had figured out what was going on immediately changed into a respectful expression.
"The lord is wise. As long as the wind is released, the wild warriors under the city who are not capable but like to cause trouble will definitely run there. Without these guys, the city's security will improve, and businessmen don't have to worry."
"Haha, that's not all. Tell them that as long as the imperial weapons they plundered, the city lord will buy them at a high price. At the same time, you send people to pay attention to these bandits and see if there are any talents.
"You must know that outstanding talents will only appear in wars. Once discovered, recruit them immediately, so that my family will be stronger!"
"Yes, the lord is wise, and the subordinates obey the order." The strong man bowed to the city lord with a respectful look on his face.
Looking at the strong man's back as he left, the city lord smiled.
"Haha, Peter, Kate, although I have made several big profits from you, don't blame me for selling you. Who told your opponent to give me the benefits higher than you give me? What is the reputation? Everything is for profit!"
As the order was conveyed, the towns around Mingyue City immediately became boiling. Countless people were thin, barefoot, holding bamboo guns or a broken sword. People with shiny eyes rushed out of the hut, and whistling dozens of people rushing towards the beach.
Odi, who was rushing back with a large amount of supplies, proudly said to Locke, and Luo Fei said: "Are you surprised that those two adults agreed to our request so easily?"
Locke and Luo Fei looked at each other in confusion, and then scratched their heads at the same time.
"Uncle, what are you? Who is the adult who agrees to our request? Do we need other people's consent to come to the city to buy things?"
Upon hearing this, Odi slapped his forehead and sighed: "Oh my God! It's true that you came out with me, and you didn't know what you were going to do? You were so angry!"
Odi was speechless. When he went out a few days ago, he told them the situation and asked them to wake up their minds. Unexpectedly, they thought they were here to buy things.
Alas, it’s better not to let them contact other things in the future. They are only suitable for fighting on the battlefield, and being a bodyguard is simply not suitable!
Odie threw the two idiots aside and said to the several civil servants whom he specially selected, "Do you know what's going on?"
The two people who laughed secretly because of Locke and Luo Fei, immediately began to think.
Of course they knew that Odi was the most important subordinate under Lord Zhao Hu, and that a large part of his future could be in his hands, so they racked their brains to think about Odi's questions, preparing to give this personal guard leader a good impression.
"This has something to do with us catching them?" A personal guard rushed, but he was despised as soon as he opened his mouth. Does the uncle still have to ask for such a simple reason?
"Is it because they find that fighting us will be more than worth the loss?" a personal guard said.
"I think that the other party is afraid of being a timid person, and the other is that the request we made does not hurt them. At the same time, we are not mortal enemies with them, but just a conflict of interest in money." Another personal guard said.
This personal guard made Odi smile. This personal guard named Oaked is good.
After they made various reasons, Odi asked again: "So you think, why did they let us join this game so easily?"
"I think that, first, the important smuggling routes are in the hands of Lord Zhao Hu, and it will be difficult for them to develop new routes. Second, I believe that this kind of smuggling activity should be to each take out a sum of funds to operate, so..."
These words from the personal guards made Odd feel very relieved.
