Game of Thrones' opening sold the gods

Chapter 202. 201. The Land of Shadows Has Oil

Half a year passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past six months, Azenia has basically digested the entire continent of Westeros, and even the most difficult desert of Dorne has crawled under the feet of the empire.

Originally, the Dornishmen still planned to resist to the death, just like they resisted the Targaryen Dynasty.

But who would have thought that Azenia did not play cards according to common sense, and used hard power to open up the only way to Dorne, and then directly built a railway.

A large number of cheap living materials and noble luxury goods rushed into the Dorne Desert. With the absolute strength of the empire, Dorne fought with the surrender faction inside before it was beaten by the empire.

Both sides knew about the Dorne Territory, and the capitulation faction had the support of the empire. The main combat faction didn't even hold out for two months. Even in the last month, the civilians of Dorne joined the capitulation faction.

After all, Azenia's propaganda is too tempting. Which pariah wouldn't want to live the life of a citizen?

So Dorne completely threw himself into the embrace of the empire, contributing to the building of the empire.

And the area of ​​Essos controlled by the empire was gradually connected together, and the small city-states in it were also annexed by the empire.

Coupled with the Dothraki prairie, the entire western part of Essos is connected by the empire, directly occupying two-thirds of the territory of Essos.

Although a large part of the land is wasteland and cannot be cultivated, this is not a problem for the empire. Under the leadership of the empire, the free city-states contributed money and effort, and directly launched the "Essos Desert Governance Plan".

When these free city-states are almost governed and the money is almost spent, the empire will naturally annex these city-states completely, and legally grant these territories the rights and interests of the Azenian Empire.

In addition, the empire now has seven dragons, namely Apollo, Viserion, Drogon, Rhaego, Nidhogg, Radon, and the newly born red dragon-Aatrox.

Radon lived in the north, Nidhogg lived in the riverlands, Apollo and Viserion were entrenched in Dragonstone, and Rego was arranged to go on a business trip to inspect the three provinces of Reach, Dorne, and Storm.

The most comfortable one is Drogon. This guy was assigned to Essos. The whole Essos is Drogon's territory. No matter where Drogon patrols, the local government will provide food and drink for him.

As for the youngest Aatrox, this little ruby-like dragon is always by Eureka's side, and Eureka likes this young dragon very much.

Congressman Randall Vargas, who contributed the dragon eggs, was naturally favored by Eureka and became the head of the five congressmen.

Usually responsible for sorting out, summarizing, and analyzing the situation reported by other councilors and ordinary cabinet provincial councilors, and then report to Tyrion or directly to the emperor, and can compete with Tyrion in terms of power.

The official position of the Great Councilor was also proposed by Tyrion, in order to balance the prime minister's rights. As for why he balanced his own rights, there are two main reasons.

The first is that Tyrion wants to reduce some work pressure for himself. To put it bluntly, he wants to relax and have time to fish.

Second, the position of prime minister is not an inheritance system. He can't guarantee that the next prime minister will always be loyal to Eureka. This is for Eureka's sake.

Of course, it is also paving the way for his own retirement. Tyrion plans to retire in ten years, and Eureka will have the ability to govern the country by then.

What's more, Theon didn't die, and Theon also said that Apollo's lifespan is at least thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years, so Tyrion is not worried about any troubles in the premature rule of Eureka.

Imperial Office.

"Well, did you find the oil?" Eureka was scratching the jaw of Aatrox, a bear-headed dragon with a shorter and rounder head.

After injecting the serum again, Aatrox didn't become stronger, but swelled a lot, and became even more muscular.

Because the main material of the serum is Theon's blood, Aatrox is very dependent on Eureka. As Theon's son, Eureka's blood is very attractive to the dragon injected with the serum.

Tyrion sat in the corner and said, "Yes, but I'm not sure. According to Leviathan's news, there may be a large number of open-pit oil mines in the Shadowlands."

After speaking, Tyrion looked at Aatrox, who was more than one meter long. This guy had a very bad temper and a huge body. He was born more than half a year later than Nidhogg, but his body was about the same as Nigelhold. .

"Well, let's buy it with money. Isn't oil very important to the empire?"

Eureka said happily that in Eureka's world view, it is the best way to solve the empire's oil shortage by buying oil with money.

But Tyrion shook his head, "Your Majesty, oil is a resource. According to your father, in the next few hundred years, oil will be one of the most important resources if nothing else happens, so we can't Use to buy."

"Can't buy? So how do we get oil?"

Eureka is a little confused. Although Eureka has the basic logic now, she still doesn't understand many things. After all, her age is here.

"Your Majesty, you must know that as long as it is within the range of the empire's cannons, everything belongs to the empire!"

"!!!" Eureka was shocked. This was the first time he had heard of this truth. Before that, Tyrion often taught him to be kind and upright, but isn't this robbery now?

"Isn't this just robbery? You said it's wrong, and our cannons can't shoot into the Shadowlands." Eureka pointed to the map on the desk.

"What I said at the time was: It's wrong to rob your own people, but the Land of Shadows is obviously not your own!

As for the Empire's cannons not being able to shoot into the Shadowlands, that's even simpler, why don't we just drive the warships over there? "
