Alien Empire Total War

On November 8, 1754 in the continental calendar, in the city of Yilde, the capital of the Kingdom of Todes, a convoy from the west slowly drove into the city.

From the outside, this team looks simple and unpretentious, and it is not much different from the carriages rented by ordinary car dealers, so it has not attracted the attention of passers-by around.

Ilya Miller, an official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Polish Empire, was sitting in one of the carriages. His slender, white fingers lifted the corner of the window curtain, and through this corner, his green eyes watched silently. Street view outside.

Ild, the capital city of a country, is home to one-third of the population of the Kingdom of Toddes, with a total of at least 400,000 residents crammed into this city standing above the fertile valley, and its population base is so large that the local government It has been plagued by endless security cases and a huge gap between the rich and the poor.

The city walls built in the Middle Ages are like a huge dividing line, separating the rich and middle class from the poor. Inside the stone walls are well-ordered houses and streets, with street lamps standing every few meters on both sides of the street. It illuminates the residents even at night.

Outside the city wall, there are outsiders who have settled down one after another. After hundreds of years of accumulation, outside the city wall seems to have developed into a new urban area. The economic situation of this urban area is generally sluggish. A few main roads are relatively wide and tidy, and the rest of the streets are crooked, uneven, and overflowing with sewage, so they are dubbed as slums by people inside the walls.

What diplomat Miller saw was the street corner of the outer city of Ild. The motorcade he was riding in was walking on the main road, and all he could see were the face-lifting projects made by the local government to restore the city's appearance-on both sides of the main road, They are basically uniform three-storey apartments, which block the scene behind the apartment. Only through the occasional alleys can you see the low-rise houses at the end of the alleys.

"Oh, the hypocritical government."

Miller sneered to himself, but he can also understand the local government's approach. If there is no way to solve the problem of dirty and messy residential areas outside the city, they can only work on the main road with the largest flow of people. Try to restore the image of the capital in the eyes of outsiders.

Soon, they crossed the main road in the outer city and came to the wide-open city gate. They could see many heavily armed soldiers with weapons in their hands, guarding the city gate and monitoring the crowds coming and going. , Anyone who is targeted by them will be forcibly pulled out of the crowd and undergo a full body check on the roadside.

Miller saw with his own eyes that after being pulled out of the crowd, a man who looked like a businessman blatantly stuffed a bulging purse into the soldier beside him. The soldier weighed the weight with his hand and let go. He took his hand and let him enter the city.

"Corrupt grassroots."

Miller also wrote down this sentence in his heart. Even in the kingdom period, the grassroots officers and soldiers would not dare to be so arrogant. To blatantly bribe in front of so many people in broad daylight, it really means nothing to the law.

Soon, he discovered that the merchant was just a trivial matter. After the soldiers guarding the city gate saw a beautiful woman in the crowd, he actually took the poor woman out. The name of the search was actually obscene. Feeling around and trying to take off her clothes, the woman didn't dare to resist, she could only tremble, and silently endured the salty pig's hands wandering on her body.

Seeing this scene, the people around were not touched at all, and seemed to be numb to it. The man who was supposed to be the husband who walked with the woman before did not step forward to stop him. He stood beside him and lowered his head, unable to bear to look directly.

Seeing all this, Miller felt a sense of grief and anger. He shook his head, lowered the curtains, and stopped looking at the street scene outside.

He didn't intend to stop it. As a qualified diplomat, he must focus on the interests of the country, and the life and death of the civilians outside was not his business. After reading it, he could only sigh with emotion .

People at the top will never care about the feelings of the ants at the bottom. They will only sigh with pity, and then forget about it. They will not be affected by the tragic fate of a few ants.

Miller is a high-ranking person. He quickly forgot the pictures he saw outside the city gate. After checking into the best hotel in the city, he sent someone to submit the documents to the palace in the center of the city.

Miller didn't know at all that the letter of request he handed in caused a lot of uproar in the court of Todes. King Portia Montoya of Todes looked at the letter in his hand with a complicated expression, and in front of him In the hall of the monarch, several officials, including the Minister of the Seal, also hurriedly heard the news. They looked at the monarch's expression in confusion, and didn't know what to say for a while.

"Let's talk about it, what are the intentions of the Rumeng people now sending messengers to see me?" King Montoya said.

Several ministers looked at each other and whispered to each other, and the minister of the seal took the lead to stand up and said: "Your Majesty, combined with the war between the Lumen and the Enkelans, I have reason to suspect that the purpose of their visit is to War broke out in the South."

"Oh? Then do you think they want to convince us to go to war, or ask us for military access?" the king continued.

"If there is no accident, it is most likely to ask us for military access." The Minister of the Seal replied.

His voice fell, and the foreign minister behind him echoed: "Your Majesty, Lord Kiel is right, I think if the Lumontese really come to ask us for military access, we shouldn't refuse, but we can use it to ruthlessly Blackmail them violently."

"Extortion? I don't think it's right~www.readwn.com~ Before King Montoya could speak, the Minister of War refuted his suggestion, "The Lumontese, oh no, they should be called the Polesland Empire now. , they only annexed the Hildi Kingdom not long ago, if we anger them on this matter, after the enclave Republic is conquered, we will definitely be the next one. "

Hearing the words of the Minister of War, King Montoya frowned, raised his right hand, supported his cheek, and said, "Kiele, what do you think?"

"I agree with the opinion of the Minister of the Army. The strength of the Lumeng people is now so high that we cannot afford to offend them. We should agree to their request in exchange for their protection." The self-proclaimed revolutionaries are making a riot, and many people in the country are incited by them. We can use this in exchange for the protection of the Lumeng people, and when the gang of troublemakers in the future make trouble, let the Lumeng people send troops to assist in the suppression."

"That's a good idea." The king nodded, waved his hand, and said, "Then, Kiel, go and contact the messenger of the Lumens instead of me."

"As you order, Your Majesty." The Minister of the Seal patted his chest and saluted, agreeing to come down.
