Strong Journey

Chapter 31 Robbery of Military Remunies [2]

Judging from the map, almost all of the six towns around Simsk City are between the main city and Ilmen Lake. Of course, the owner of Asheli understands this. Because the original purpose of this city was to compete with the Roma Empire for control of the north. Of course, after several generations of extravagation, the later Roma Empire finally shrank its territory and gave up most of the north. It also formed the later Baltic culture. After the division of several kingdoms and duchy, there were only a few monarchs born here.

However, this does not mean that the Slavic Empire has the energy to rule the north. Because here, there are nearly 400,000 West Slavs living in the western region. Strictly speaking, they are not Slavic. In the historical legend of Baltic culture, the ancestors of this race are called Maute. It is even said that in the early days of the founding of Roma the Great, it was the Maute ancestors who guarded the north for it, which made the reputation of the Roma resound throughout the world.

But the subsequent historical changes are enough to prove that quantitative changes can cause qualitative changes. The sparsely populated Maute people have gradually integrated into many ethnic groups in the north. And the hodgepodge of Slavs has become a new race in the north and even the eastern continent. On the wasteland in the north, a race is born or annihilated almost every two or three hundred years. These races are completely unconvinced, and they are against the Roma Empire and even the former Central Empire, thousands or even 10,000 years.

Up to now, a huge Slavic cultural system has been formed and has become the strongest force against the Central Empire of the Central Continent. Although in fact, the huge system of the Roma Empire is still one hundred and eighty thousand miles short.

The westernmost town of Simsk City is only five kilometers away from Ilmen Lake. The commander of the Basayev Legion, not long after leaving here, their marching route is close to the coast of Ilmen Lake and heading west. This route is the most effective in terms of defense. Because if you fight with your back, there is less possibility that your husband will be attacked. The troops escorting the army are often elite heavy infantry and dragoons. Strictly speaking, it is 5,000 regular elite heavy infantry. The Slavic dragoons themselves are maneuvered heavy armored infantry. These heavy armored infantry equipped with two to five horses are amazingly powerful and several grades stronger than ordinary infantry.

This is also the only service that can be trusted by the Slavic Empire. Compared with the weak magicians of the Slavic Empire, in the battle with the Roma Empire, only such dragoons and heavily armored infantry are the guarantee for their survival. Because the magicians of the Roma Empire is so powerful. And the Magician Legion is directly subordinate to His Majesty the Emperor of the Roman Empire. Only the emperor's handwritten order can mobilize them. That is to say, today's Roma Empire, without the handwritten order of His Majesty Frank I, it can completely ignore anyone's orders.

Of course, once the country enters a real state of war, it is impossible for such a strategic force not to move. Compared with the half-toned magician army of the Kingdom of Latvia, this kind of magician army is elite. They are not as weak and magical as folk magicians. Often these combat mages are stronger than ordinary warriors. They can adapt to the cruel battlefield environment and charge on the enemy's corpses without changing their face. You can even release magic while holding a sword. This kind of magician army with real strategic power is actually the magic swordsman army.

In the battle of the first emperors of the Roma Empire, the glory of this legion can make any violent army in history ashamed. Of course, time has passed for thousands of years, and the branches of this legion have walked in all corners of the Roma Empire, guarding this huge empire. Even the second prince Dan, who controls the imperial guard. Rom, he doesn't have the ability to mobilize the magician's army. Such a transfer order can be rejected as long as any elder in the aristocratic council makes a reasonable rebuttal. And it is precisely these elders who are all pregnant with ghosts, and it is completely impossible for anyone to master such a force. And in fact, the Minister of Magic Mike. Russell himself can directly command the four magic swordsmen' armies. That is, 20,000 people, this power is the real Mike. The reason for Russell's high status.

And now, the highly valued magic minister has a good impression of Prince Ursula to a frightening extent. With Mike. Russell's status can naturally tilt the pattern of the whole empire again, but what he doesn't know is what kind of choice this old man wants to make. Or, he is still watching something.

"Bang! Unlucky! That damn short fat man is like a pig. Next time you go back, you must blackmail him fiercely! The beetle of the empire, such as Asheli, should be hanged. Look at those beggars in Simsk. There are more than his guards. As the deputy commander of the Western Legion, Basayev's position is also noble. And his mother is a descendant of the Slavic royal family. Although she has only a quarter of her blood, at least it also gives him a little face to his relatives. Naturally, the scenery is not much in the Western Legion. Under the commander of the Western Legion, he, the deputy commander, is the most honorable, while the other three sub-commanders and five deputy commanders are obviously not as good as him in the Western Legion. That's why he was able to get the fat fare of escorting military service.

These gold rubles and silver rubles are deducted on the road, and it is basically normal to lie about the fire consumption. And there is no need to worry about someone coming to make trouble with the 5,000 elite legion. When passing through Simske City, it was like a crab, even like Asheli. The city owner like Ivanov can only swallow his anger, which really makes the soldiers and officers who follow Basayev feel that this officer is really good. The extra golden ruble every year is more than ten times or even hundreds of times that of others, which is completely the treatment and gap between heaven and earth. But when I passed by Simsk City this time, it was obvious that Asheri. Ivanov's preparation was also very sharp. He settled Basayev in the nearest town. Although the main city was raided, it was only a little bit. The real rich was not Simsk City, but his lord.

"Shir, that fat man looks very rich." A thousand-chief came over and rode on a high-headed horse. This is a hot-blooded horse, with a dark glowing hair color and a bright horse's mane fluttering in the wind, which is very divine. Basayev's beard circled, and his eyes were like bull's eyes, staring at the boss. He opened his mouth with a loud voice, saying as if he were quarreling, "That son of a bitch, you don't know that this bastard asks for money from the Imperial City of Morsk every year. Among other things, the property of Ilmen Lake has been eaten by him alone. I heard that he is a member of the Ivanov family, one of his cousins. Come and help him take care of the industry. It is said that it is the property of the Ivanov family. Who doesn't know the tricks in it? Son of a bitch. I guess he has fat oil in his bottom. It must be a problem to have 1.8 million gold coins a year.

"So much! It's impossible!" The commander's eyes widened in disbelief. It's normal. How can these Qiu Ba understand how much wealth the real rich man manipulates? They just stubbornly thought that if they mix 10,000 gold coins a year, they would already be a great rich man. They ran to the wilderness in the east and circled dozens of hectares of land, which was easy. Then they took off their armor and returned to the field, married three or five wives, and had ten or eight sons. Naturally, they lived a glorious life.

At first hearing Basayev's words, these thousand chiefs' ears stood up, came over and asked chatteringly. Basayev was also a little unhappy. He didn't bite the meat from the bastard Asheri, and now he still feels extremely regretful. I thought about it again and was soft on the fat man. After getting more than 100,000 gold rubles, he let him live. It's really stupid to go home. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid that the fat man really laughs at himself as a big fool.

"Damn son of a bitch, I'm afraid that beast is having fun now. More than 100,000 gold coins are just a month's expense. People like him need hundreds of thousands of gold coins for every hair on his body. The industry of Ilmen Lake is full of money. I heard that it costs more than 20 million gold rubles. The whole Slavic Empire has an industry of this scale, no more than 50. The people of the Ivanov family are really good at doing business. Damn, it seems that he is soft-handed this time. When we go to the legion station and report that when we return to Morsk, we must raid all his six towns once, and then threaten him to go to the emperor to sue, saying that he is embezzled. At that time, we will blackmail five or 600,000 yuan. Basayev was tall. At this time, he rubbed his beard on a tall horse, and the ferocious smile in his eyes made people excited.

Several thousands of commanders' eyes lit up and suddenly became happy. They said in their hearts: The military's money for this escort is only one or two million yuan, and one person deducts 10,000 or twenty thousand yuan, which is only a little. If you can make enough money from Simsk, it is absolutely enough not to be a soldier. It's more than enough to go back to the east and marry a few East Slavic wives. You can also build several big houses, and you don't have to worry about eating, drinking or wearing all your life. Oh, I didn't expect this Asheli. Ivanov is really a treacherous villain.

"That's right, the officer must be more ruthless at that time, kill it with a knife, and never stop the boy's pain. I said, we fished a little this time and thought we had eaten meat. It turned out that it was still soup, which made me happy for three days. Damn, I'm afraid that bastard is thinking that we are a group of big fools!" The captains were all indignant, and their eyes were extremely fierce. Although the centurioners not far away were urging the team to move forward, their ears also stood up and listened to the conversations of the officers here. Although he made more than 100,000 yuan from Simsk, from the top to the next, to the hands of a small official at the level of centurion, there is actually not much. As soon as I heard that I could still do it when I came back, I was naturally happy and happy.

Just as this group of people are still thinking about how to calculate Asheri. When Ivanov was the shameless and shameless lord of Simsk, on the west bank of Ilmen Lake in the distance, Riol. Ivanov's horse team of about two or three hundred people stood there in silence. The horse team went directly from the boat from the east coast to the west coast. In this Ilmen Lake, there have been no civilian boats that dared to fish secretly here for a long time. Occasionally, boats from outside also come along the canal from the Baltic seaport city. When you get here, it's almost Rio. Ivanov's man's territory, that Asheli. Although Ivanov is a city owner, he has no status in Ivanov's big family. Compared with a popular person like Riol, it's really not a little bit worse, even this Asheli. Ivanov is still from a direct family.

"Master, their people are here." The housekeeper next to him came to the edge of the carriage. When Riol heard it, his fat body staggered out of the carriage. The person who is coming on the opposite side is not very good-tempered, which is also normal. He hangs around with a mad dog-like leader. Even if he is a nerd, he will be a little cruel in the end, not to mention Tiger. House's first mad dog in the ages.

"These Normans are still so vulgar. But I like it." Riol. Ivanov smiled, his treacherous smile as usual. At first glance, he was a top businessman. As the stewmer of Tamsaluslav's money house, his status is now taken advantage of Tiger. House's intelligence is getting more and more attention.

This is also the reason why when he saw the Normans coming, although the gloomy and miscellaneous things like Sugakane made people shudder, but it made Riol say he liked it. Chesterner next to him is carrying a machete on his back, and the thick back of the knife looks like a shield from a distance. This damn Gaul was despised to the extreme by the Gallic king Karam Bora, but he didn't expect that 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, and now Karam Bora, even if he wanted to be with Tiger. House, the ice tiger, has to take the Chesterner line. It's really touching. No one can predict the changes in the world.

Sugakane's gloomy expression always makes people think that it is a poisonous snake. His voice is always with that frosted voice, and the buzzing echo sounded, as if it was not a person in front of him, but a highly poisonous viper. And Sugakane also learned a beautiful undead magic. Of course, his teacher is Charles, the great mage in the city of Tamsalu. The dead-faced old man officially taught this bastard's necromancer magic two years ago. The effect is quite good. He can always give people a bone spear unexpectedly when fighting with people. Although the lethality can't penetrate the human body, it is more than enough to pierce a person's eyeball. So much so that the person who was killed by Sugakane is extremely colorful.

So most of the time, people prefer to deal with the bull of Gangliro. Even if the current Chesner and Sugakane walk together, they feel that this bastard is always looking at him.

"This guy is really chilling." Riol whispered to the old housekeeper next to him. The old housekeeper nodded and gently held his palm on the sword. The old housekeeper's solemn look stunned Sugaka, who had come here. Then the commander of the Twelfth Army said coldly, "It's better not to continue to put your palm on the sword, otherwise I will think you are hostile to me and want to kill me. Um... You know, once I think it's a threat, I will definitely deal with it in advance."

The tone of his voice was almost the same as that of the original Tiger. The appearance of House threatening old Feng is an emphasis. Think of Bruce at the beginning. Master Wayne, facing Tiger. House's mad dog is as sick as Sugakane now. Oh, no, it should be a pervert.

The old housekeeper was stunned. He wanted to say something, but he saw that the two tall tauren around Sugakane had already prepared the tomahawk and started with an order. At this time, the old housekeeper observed the situation and carefully left the palm of the sword, beside Rio. Ivanov frowned. Of course, he didn't like the feeling of being threatened at the beginning, although he had a very good impression of the Normans.

"Well, cut into the topic, where did the rabbit go?" Sugakane's eyes are very long. At first glance, he does look like snake eyes, and his skin is that pale color, which makes people feel more uncomfortable. After being stared at by this bastard for a while, he felt that the eighteen generations of his ancestors were going to be blown up**.

Riool. Ivanov is at least with Tiger. House, a mad dog who has been with him several times, will naturally not be afraid of the figure of Sugakane. He straightened his face and said flatly, "The rabbit has passed the city of Simsk and is moving west along the south bank of Ilmen Lake. If there is no accident, they will be stationed at the temporary post there tonight. As usual, the number is 5,000 troops. Among them, there are 2,000 dragon cavalry. The war horse is equipped with one person and three horses.

Sugakane nodded, then looked at Chesterner beside him and asked, "The information is true. What do you think?"

Chesner rubbed his chin and then aimed at Riol. Ivanov, the short fat man, said, "Your guide, are you ready?" Riol nodded and clapped his hands, and fifty or sixty strong Slavs came out.

These people are strong in stature and are active all year round at first glance. He looked calm, unlike ordinary people who trembled when they saw these tough Normans. They should be some people with some means.

"Well, the grand dun's thank-you gift will definitely be fulfilled. Now, can we take someone with us?" Chesterner looked at Riole and asked.

Riol nodded and said, "These guides are very familiar with walking at night, so don't worry. There will be no mistakes."

"That's the best." Sugakane suddenly made a sound.

A ghostly smile suddenly appeared, "If these people are useless, my baby, they will be thirsty for a long time." With that, he touched a thorn in his hand. This was Tiger. The weapon that House specially made for him is as cold as the venomous teeth of a viper. Hearing this bastard talk like this, whether it's the guides or Rio. Ivanov, a drop of cold sweat slipped down. This son of a bitch is really too gloomy.
