1046.Ivankov's amazing journey (page 1/2)
The former Transian border town of Batacin has now expanded twice. What's even more outrageous is that a third expansion in eleven months has been put on the agenda. The original city walls have been demolished and expanded outwards. A wider area has been expanded for continuous trade activities..
This city is the headquarters of the Bataxin Chamber of Commerce and is also the current commercial core area on land in Transia except Stromgarde..
Commercial routes to the Ice Bay, Kafhoka region and even the more distant Yankee country all start here, and the carriage team of the "Pride of the Lion" trading company, which has monopolized the logistics industry in Transia, travels on average every day. Loading and unloading hundreds of times here.
It is no exaggeration to say that today's Batacin City is like the economic heart of Transia..
Once this place is destroyed or occupied, Transia, whose financial situation has been on the verge of collapse all year round, will definitely be completely destroyed..
Such an important area naturally needs to be defended intensively. Therefore, in the city of Batasin, there is not only an elite people's army that has been withdrawn from the Maginot Line to guard it, but also 1,500 winged cavalry stationed here all year round. The Midnight Faction of the Blood Vulture Clan Two mage towers were built here, and the elite midnight psychic masters trained by the eldest lady were also stationed here..
This defense is strong enough to ensure that even in the worst case scenario, the city can complete transfer and retreat before being destroyed..
I heard that Perfect Shipping Company is about to set up a commercial site in Bataxin City. Once the airship tower under construction is completed, there will 100% be a powerful armed airship as a defense force..
But it is precisely because of the importance of this place that external forces with evil intentions against Transia frequently make provocations here..
Boss Huo treats every guest generously, but our Blood Rat Gang has another way of doing things..
The person in front of him grabbed his collar and roared：
As the largest gray force in Transia at present, seven of the ten bad things in the shadow of this land are related to these guys. However, it can only develop to this point under Transia's harsh management policies. The background of the Blood Rat Gang is definitely an officially domesticated black glove..
“Zhuo, I also want to pay back the money. The problem is that I have to have money.！”
The torn sack was torn off his head, and Major Ivankov, who smelled of alcohol, couldn't help but squint his eyes. There was a bright light in front of him that was so dazzling that he couldn't see the real situation in the house..
so he shouted：
“Give me some more time! I'll think of another way.”
Ivankov was a little panicked. He knew the style of the Blood Rat Gang..
Especially for those bastards who borrowed money and then hid in the military camp without any intention of paying back the money..”
For example, Marshal Heraclius, who was transferred to the post of governor of the Kafhoka region more than half a month ago, the latter and the military nobles surrounding him were determined to create a successful border friction in Transia, and use it to develop into I'm very interested in plans for a full-scale invasion..
Alas, the Scarlet Castle is getting more and more complicated now, and even us sewer rats are saddled with KPIs..
You see, we were friends once, and we should treat our friends with all our heart. You are gambling with our future. Is this the correct way for Nords to treat their friends?？
Therefore, if you don't give me an explanation today, I can only show you what the real "heart-breaking" is..”
The cold blade pressed against Major Ivankov's neck and was pulled away the next moment. A trace of blood spattered out, but it was just a threatening gesture. The man grabbed the knife and sat on the table in front of the light, letting his voice Being shrouded in light also made it impossible for the major to see his face clearly..
The Transian People's Army is currently helping the Halflings drive out the Jackal invaders on the Genoa Peninsula. Under such circumstances, if Nordtov, a member of the civilized camp, takes the initiative to attack Transia, he will have to make diplomatic troubles. Terrible scandal.
As a veteran who had been on the battlefield, fought against barbarians and jackals, Ivankov knew that he should not act recklessly, but the pressure caused by facing the danger made him sober up quickly, and he began to interact with his rough appearance there. In a completely different and delicate mind, I think about who I have offended recently.？
Soon, he got an answer.
Those vicious minions trained by vampires have many weird ways to obtain the information they want from the most stubborn Gnolls. If even the tough Gnolls can't withstand those torture techniques, there is a high probability that they themselves will not be able to survive..
but.
We are not just asking you to come here to collect debts. Sir Ivankov, we have a business that needs your help..”
You are now a bachelor who is not afraid of anything！
Thinking about the rumored connection between the Blood Rat Gang and the Shadow Intelligence Agency, Major Ivankov felt the urge to urinate..
But both Marshal Heraclius and the officials of Batacin City are very clear that if border provocations are allowed to continue, sooner or later the two sides will definitely clash with each other..
“Depend on! I told you, just give me a few more days and I will pay back the debt I owe you! I'm a well-known figure in the military camp at Kakhovka..”
His sword and gun were all taken away, and even the boot sword hidden in his smelly boots was searched. All of this happened within a few minutes after he was knocked unconscious in a dark alley, which fully demonstrated that the other party was Come prepared.
The old marshal is just a hawk, he is not a fool.
“snap”
There is nothing worth protecting in this world, so you feel like you are not afraid of anything..
“You have no wife, no children, only a few familiar courtesans and bitches as lovers, the relationship between you and your cheap father is terrible, and the only poor mother you care about died a few years ago..
“Swish”
To start a war, he had to find the most suitable time, and the current situation was obviously not suitable. He was also very dissatisfied with the quality of soldiers in the Kakhovka area, and was working on strengthening training and preparation. All of this would take time to complete..
the major cursed.：
“I am still your VIP customer of Booty Bay! That exquisite card is on my left chest. Damn it, I had a drink with your boss Huo. This is how you treat your important customers.？”
Another reason is the obstruction at the diplomatic level.
There is currently no large-scale advancement. The first reason is that after the fall of the Crimean Fortress, Cadman City's position at the southernmost point of Kafhoka is obviously a military hazard that urgently needs to be solved. The old marshal who has been fighting for a lifetime We will never foolishly start a war on two fronts before we resolve this matter..
He cursed even more excitedly：
“Blanch! 003! You bastard, why are you here?？”
Amidst the crisp sound of the mechanical lighter, the person in front of me lit a cigarette and said：
“Sister Dorothy is not in Transia at the moment, but if she comes back and finds that such a large amount of money has not been recovered, many people will be unsafe. Your Excellency, in the worst case scenario, someone will lose their head..
The dazzling light was turned off, and Ivankov finally no longer had to endure the strong light, which made his eyes hurt. Then the softer light in the room came on, allowing him to completely see the person in front of him. Then the major's eyes widened..
In the dazzling light in front of me, a cold voice scolded：
“In order to make money and pretend to be rich in front of that plump and attractive lady, you borrowed six sums of money from our Blood Rat Gang. With the stipend income of your position, you would have to go without food for fifteen years before you can repay it. After clearing that money, the interest has not yet been calculated..
“But what you owe is not a small sum that can be settled with friendship, Major..”
I'm sure as long as I let you go here, you might be able to run into the wilderness tomorrow..
“You have a damn idea！”
During the years when he fought with the Transians in Shadow Valley against the Jackals, he had seen with his own eyes how the agents of the Shadow Intelligence Agency treated their enemies..
And at this sensitive time window, something very "wonderful" is happening in a basement in the old city of Batasin, no matter from which angle you look at it..
He cursed.
The guy in front of him pretending to be a member of the Blood Rat Gang was actually the domestic 003 who had fought Jackals with him in the tunnels of Shadow Valley before. The two of them were not close friends, but at least they had carried guns and killed together. enemy.
For men, this is already an incredible friendship.
“I just stopped by to take a look. I didn't expect you to be in such a miserable state..”
Domestic 003 smiled, popped out a cigarette and handed it to Major Ivankov, then helped him light the cigarette, leaned back on the table, crossed his arms and said：
