MTL - Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World-Chapter 550 confusion

【Steel, guns and the industrial party across the world】【】

Lieutenant Colonel James Walton, commander of the 6th Infantry Battalion of the Arda Army stationed on the Emden border, is now very depressed.

After getting up early in the morning, the lieutenant colonel inspected the morning training of the soldiers as usual, and then returned to his residence to prepare for breakfast.

Just when he took his first bite of bread, he suddenly received a telegram from the signal tower of Lakemore.

Lakemore is the territory of the Helson family, a viscounty territory, and one of the original vassal territories of Emden. This telegram was sent by the lord Viscount Helson.

The content of the telegram surprised Lieutenant Colonel Walton—the next-door Earl Bijita Bazel led the army to suddenly break into Lake Moor. The reason was that they were chasing a group of bandits. He can only stay in his own castle. Although Earl Bazel's army did not commit violence after entering Lakemore, it is continuing to march towards Emden.

After the War of the Ustors, Paul brought Emden, which was directly ruled by the Kent family, under the management of the Council of State, but he was quite magnanimous to the vassals of the Kent family. After asking them to swear allegiance to Graham After the family, they were allowed to retain their own territories, and they were allowed to be self-governing except that the laws implemented must not conflict with the few basic principles given by the court of the lord of Arda, and they had to join the customs union.

There is no pressure to let these little lords re-swear an oath. As vassals of the Kent family, they have contributed a lot in the war. They have accompanied the old lord Maltz Kent to the last moment of his death. It is a practice. The oath to the old master is gone, and Maltz Kent and his successors no longer exist, and the original oath has lost the basis for validity.

At this time, everyone made a rational choice whether to twist his thigh as an enemy of Paul Freeman, or to hug his thigh as a courtier of Paul Freeman.

Viscount Kherson is one of the more active ones among the vassals, but he is not as active as the others—slapping Paul’s **** or kissing Paul’s boots when meeting the lord, Kherson’s activeness lies in The territory keeps pace with Huxin Town at all times, such as various legal provisions, administrative regulations, taxation, and even the city hall and police station. An ordinary person in Arda has no discomfort after moving to Kemoor .

Moreover, Kherson also sent his nephew—the viscount only has a daughter, and the nephew is his heir—to study at Weiss College in Lake Town. According to the traditional concept, this is already equivalent to a hostage, although Paul doesn't care much about it. .

In the eyes of others, Viscount Helson looks like a chief executive stationed in Huxin Town, not a lord.

Viscount Kherson's efforts have been rewarded handsomely, and Paul favors him every time the lords gather in Lake Town. More importantly, Huxin Town has made a lot of investment in his territory - building roads, building factories, and mining. The funds, equipment, and technology used in it are all covered by Huxin Town, and you will get a piece of land It's enough to add some people, and you don't have to pay a penny, and you will get a fifty-fifty share after you make a profit.

Through this way, the wealth of the Kherson family has been accumulated at a speed that makes others envious, much faster than before from those poor farmers.

The Viscounty of Lake Moore has set a good example. Many vassals began to follow the example of the Kherson family more or less. Many practices are also a good reference for how to develop territories.

Especially Viscount Brett Sean, who ruled Bidowborough. During the War of Ushers, the Sean family was severely punished with a sum of compensation. The wealth accumulated for several generations bottomed out instantly, and they even had to borrow On that day, Viscount Sean, who was once unable to make ends meet, even considered whether to directly sell the territory to Earl Graman, whom he was now loyal to.

In short, Lake Moore is a demonstration base for Huxin Town. In addition, the Kherson family is now a vassal of the Greiman family and is under the protection of Huxin Town. Lieutenant Colonel Walton cannot ignore it.

After a quick bite of food, the lieutenant colonel ordered the guards to summon the officers of the whole battalion, intending to inform them and then lead the army to Reckmore to stop Earl Bazel's army.

Earl Bazel also participated in the War of the Ustor, belonging to the anti-Kent coalition at the time, but only joined in the second half of the war. Recently, he is still negotiating with the Customs Union. He wants to join it, but he has different opinions on the distribution plan of the common tariff, so he has not been accepted as a formal member.

This is a lord who has a good or bad relationship with Huxin Town, but it is too much to enter the territory of the Geliman family without saying hello. Lieutenant Colonel Walton decided to use a strong military force to make him retreat. First, reason with the other party first, and if the other party is unreasonable, then you have to fight. Lieutenant Colonel Walton really looks down on the armies of other territories in the Northwest Gulf.

According to the regulations, the lieutenant colonel first went to Huxin Town to send an encrypted telegram, explaining the reason for this action~www.novelbuddy.com~ Then came the matter that made Lieutenant Colonel Walton depressed.

First of all, Huxin Town replied to him very quickly, but the content made him a little unbelievable. The higher-ups even asked him to let Earl Bazel's army go, and said that Bazel came here at the invitation of Huxin Town. , the sender is the General Staff.

The army's communication code was changed not long ago, and the encryption is end-to-end, so Bazel did not doubt the authenticity of the contents of the telegram.

But if a foreign army is invited to enter one's own territory, shouldn't the Sixth Infantry Battalion, which is the garrison, be notified first? What to do in case of a misunderstanding.

Despite such doubts, Lieutenant Colonel Bazel decided to carry out the order and planned to send several guides to Earl Bazel's army.

But then he received another telegram, the content of which made him shudder—Huxin Town was controlled by the rebels, so don't believe any information from there. The title of the letter is "To all battalions...", which means that every battalion commander will receive such a telegram.

In particular, this telegram came from District 51, and the sender was Chief of Staff Schroeder.

As one of the only eight battalion commanders in the Arda Army, James Walton certainly knew about Area 51, but why was Master Schroeder in that place, and what he said was that Lake Town was controlled by the rebels what's going on.

Lieutenant Colonel Walton, and his officers, were in great confusion because of these two telegrams.

Which side should I trust? Is it Huxin Town? Or Area 51?
