Chapter 219 [Provocation]

Despite repeated delays in the cold winds, spring still arrives.

After March, the whole northwest started to get busy.

On hundreds of thousands of square kilometres of land, from Nurin province to the east, from the west to the northwest corridor, to the Kilimaro Mountains to the north and to Lake Lulan to the south. Battalion troops were pulled out and sent to various pre-set playgrounds.

This is prescribed by Roland Imperial Decree and is an annual spring performance by the military throughout the Imperial Territory.

The Roland Empire is a marvellous nation. A thousand years ago, the Aragon Emperor emerged from the mainland in a stunning and stunning manner. He sought out the East and the South and conquered the Civil War, which brought together the entire continent's layout and built such a vast empire. And since the beginning of the Aragon Emperor himself, such an iron law has been set!

In order to ensure that the army of the Empire does not lapse due to excessive peace, the army of the Empire carries out a spring performance every spring.

And this kind of performance, in the Aragonese era, was strictly enforced.

Although future generations, with the end of the Aragon era, future generations of empires have been pacified and gradually abandoned this iron law, even in a history where imperial armies have not performed for more than a decade and military discipline has been depleted. Later, however, with the change of the current Augustine dynasty, this iron law of the Aragon Emperor was once again strictly enforced in the past.

After all, the present Augustine dynasty is less than two hundred years old, and there have been some minor regional wars during which the imperial army has been given some vigilance and not overly relaxed.

Special thanks go to the incumbent Emperor Augustine VI. Though regarded as a tyrant of great joy, this man has placed unprecedented emphasis on the combat and practice of the army, at least during his tenure, especially during the years of Augustine VI's reign, when the Imperial Army performed annually, almost without interruption.

Although Augustine VI did a lot of ridiculous things during his reign, and this emperor could not be too wise, a Northwest War, futile and wasteful of national power, the Southern Ocean expedition situation is greater than the harvest.

But undeniably, thanks also to the presence of the Emperor, the Empire's army's current average combat strength is arguably the best Roland Empire has maintained for over a hundred years.

•

Spring wind together, the army pulled out.

In the two north-western provinces, the division of the theatre naturally belongs to the North-West Legion. Although the Northwest Legion has secretly defied the Central Chamber and has not listened, this annual spring performance has never been abandoned.

Moreover, this annual spring manoeuvre is precisely a demonstration of strength for the Northwest Legion, a little deterrent to the centre of the Empire and a little hard gesture to use as its own political leverage. So every spring, the Northwest Legion spares no effort to carry out the exercise, gather out the strictly trained and most powerful armies, show off the northwest land and play.

At the same time, of course, we will not forget to be vigilant in every move in the centre of the imperial empire.

It is worth reflecting on that the annual spring performance, for the imperial emperor center, the northwest, is a place of special attention!

200,000 troops mobilized - and 200,000 troops not under their control, so frequently mobilized, how can you not be nervous in the center of the Empire?!

Every spring, the Imperial Guard Corps of Wangcheng mobilizes tens of thousands of elite troops all the way to the west. They are stationed upstream of the Lancanal. The soldiers are sharply alert to the northwest, in order to prevent the Northwest Corps from rebelling and making any truly treacherous moves.

The same is true of the Northwestern Regiment, whose annual performance is accompanied by two of the most elite cavalry divisions of the Northwestern Regiment driving all the way to the eastern border area of Nurinhang Province, nominally a normal long distance stretch, and, in fact, a vigilant confrontation with the central Royal City Guard Corps in case the Empire takes the opportunity to move troops into the Northwest.

•

For the Northwest Army, the annual spring performance, while always guarding the Royal City Guard Corps in the centre of the Empire, is somewhat disturbing. Over the years, however, the central government has been unable to take care of the Northwest and has not had the courage to fight a civil war to completely eradicate the Northwest internal disease.

Over the years, the main warriors and compromisers in the imperial military command have fought and quarreled and quarrelled. Strong main warriors are often the newcomers to the empire, advocating the subjugation of Northwest sovereignty by force, a definitive solution to the status quo of warlords cut off by the Northwest Legion, and the preservation of centralized rule.

Compromises, though abhorrent in their hearts, are not the kind of cartilage imagined. On the contrary, these people are not selfish, and most of them are genuinely worried about the people of the country. Every time they quarrel with the main warring faction, they can come up with a lot of analysis of the Empire's financial military expenditures and power. In reality, the Empire is now falling in strength and unable to fight a civil war at all - if it is forcibly fought, even if it is won, it will damage the Empire's strength! The adverse consequences that follow, under analysis, may be twofold:

The first is the empire's reluctant subjugation of the Northwest and the resolution of the Northwest Legion. But the Prairie Fae entered in vain: Imagine, without the towns of the Northwest Legion to guard the Northwest, and after the Civil War, the heavily defeated Empire, where did so many armies draw against the Prairie Wolves with hundreds of thousands of elite iron rides?

Second, even though the Northwestern Fae did not enter… Imagine, then, where would the Empire mobilize troops against the Northwestern Legion if it were to fight a civil war? Nearest to the northwest, the best option is naturally the Royal City Close Guard Corps. Royal Near Guard Corps, this is the kinship corps of the founding era of the Great Aragon Emperor, the most glorious “Thornflower Corps”, can fight the Northwest Corps in terms of equipment, combat power and military strength... but the problem is, if the Northwest Army is solved after the Great War, but if the Royal Near Guard Corps loses too much, its energy is greatly damaged... then the direct power in the central hands of the Empire is too weak... it is difficult to protect the Northern Corps of the Ice Sealed Forest of the North, as well as the Southern Corps, or other powerful noble lords in the Empire, will not be dissident!

Under the barrel of the gun came the regime, and that's the truth, although the Roland mainland is heretical, the people here also know it!

If the civil war weakens the center and makes the place strong... then it will not be easy once the turmoil has started and you want to calm down again!

It is for this reason that the Empire cut off the warlords of the Northwest Legion, repeatedly appeased and appeased year after year. The end of the Northwest Legion was lost.

And for the Northwest Legion, this annual spring performance has one great benefit:

Money!

•

Imperial iron law, annual spring manoeuvres, required military consumption is distributed directly by the Imperial Army, which is responsible for the supply of weapons, horses and grass, while the Imperial Army compensates the local government by means of financial allocations.

And in the Northwest, the situation makes the Northwest Corps cheaper: the original war order, more than 20 years ago, gave the Northwest Army the right to intervene in local affairs. And for the annual spring show, the local government must pay an extra amount of military expenses, especially grass, and the army of the Northwest Army, in the name of the act, pulls out so many troops, pulls back and forth in the two Northwest provinces, and every time you pass, you directly ask the local government for food - if you don't give it, you defy the imperial military order.

Governor Bohan has had a headache for years in the northwest about this situation. But he also made a little knock on the door. Two months before the annual spring show, he orders the emptying of warehouses everywhere, leaving only a small amount of grain. In case the locusts cross when the Northwest Army plays, when the grass really doesn't grow.

Over the years, a robbery, a hideout, has played a good game of hide-and-seek cats every year in the Northwest.

But this year, Dewey broke the convention!

•

The noon sun rose to the top, and under the blue sky and the white clouds, Lulan City, the guards of this city of miracles were already waiting.

Starting yesterday, the Duke issued an order restricting access to the city gate, especially today, closing the gate and strictly prohibiting anyone from leaving Lancheng. Even the Northward King's merchants, who had long received wind, simply chose to detour, bypass Lulan City and go to some small towns on the shores of Lulan Lake to replenish fresh water and food before proceeding.

Some reluctant to detour also temporarily went to the village and town near Lulan City to stay temporarily.

When a dark shadow gradually appeared on the distant horizon, that dense iron hoof was like a thunderbolt beneath the sunny sky, smashing into the hearts of the guards for a moment!

Northwest Wilderness, flat terrain, best suited for cavalry impact. And at this moment, on the horizon, a line of black pressure, like a wave, is like a cloud of wind, and you look at it, and you see a cavalry of black pressure, horseshoes running, horseshoes thundering, dusty!

Standing at the head of the city, some experienced veterans can recognize each other's situation with a dust-watching technique.

Such a large cavalry, at least there are more than 20,000 people, and in the Mercedes-Benz, the queue is not disturbed, but it is a queue of geese walking bands, set up an undisguised attack, coming toward Lu Lan City!

The dust in the sky almost covered the sky.

Most of the guards standing on the walls of Lulancheng were elite veterans of the 4,000 rebels that Dewey had taken over that day. These predecessors were the Royal City Guards of the Elite Emperor, and watching these Mercedes-Benz cavalry soldiers can't help but faintly discolor!

The wind swept through the clouds and thundered!

Almost for a moment, the large number of cavalry had gone beneath the city, a horn, and the cavalry in the Mercedes-Benz immediately rearranged, stopping about a mile below the city pool, but it was a piece of black pressure.

Horse cavalry, all dressed in imperial Northwest Army armor, except that everyone's armor was painted with black ink with a symbol unique to the Northwest Army.

According to the flag, the 20,000 cavalry coming here is a complete cavalry division. What angered the guards in Lulan City was that while they stopped beneath the city, they openly set up an attack!

This cavalry array of Northwest Army cavalry midhorn continued, and then saw its flag roll over, splitting several thousand troops from both wings immediately, but walking around. Separation is the battle line, the siege!

Someone was flying to the Duke's Palace. Dewey listened to the debriefing and didn't say a word, just a faint phrase, "I know. ”

In fact, the anger in Dewey's heart was also forcibly suppressed.

Three days ago, the Northwestern Army sent a message to Dewey: this spring, the Northwestern Army's military decided to select a lakeside area outside Lulan City for the drill. When this decision arrived in Dewey's hands, the other side claimed that the army had been pulled out and would be here in three days!

Such a move made Dewey almost flip his face on the spot, but the patient persevered.

Why is that?

Three days?

In other words, when the messenger of the other party sent the message, the army had already set out!

This so-called messenger is a cover! The army has already set out to tell you fake! You have to say yes, you have to say no, you have to say yes!!

Dewey listened to the debriefing and ordered the change to go out immediately. He hesitated for a moment, did not wear any Duke's noble gown, did not wear a magician's robe, but chose an armor - this armor was also made by Dewey in the shop in Tidu, in terms of the magnificence of the styling, it was not too much with the original set of Laurin, and the effect of the implementation was also improved.

Dewey had a long body and a weak condition at a young age. After practicing the introductory kung fu of star fighting, he was greatly improved. In the northwest year, he had gradually pulled out, although he still had a little bit of young naivety on his face, which was also limited by his age. But the power between behaviors is stronger than a day.

At this moment, this specially built armor is worn on the body, and it looks fierce, when a truly brilliant atmosphere of martial arts surfaces. Raise your hand and throw it, but it also smells a little like a young general.

As soon as Dewey gave the order and brought all the guards along with the guard elder cigarette, he immediately left the Duke's Palace and went to the city gate.
