Chapter 100 A gift for the Gillies
On the eve of the engagement between Antigonus and Helen, Hioloomos, the chief foreign affairs officer who was sent to the Gilis Federation, finally returned. His mental outlook was good, and he had achieved results.

After getting off the boat, Hieromos went directly to the Vigina Palace to report the results of the mission to Antigonus without taking a break.

"Your Majesty, your subordinate has fulfilled your mission and successfully completed your order."

Hioloomos stroked his chest to Antigonus, who was on the main seat, and saluted.

"Tell me about what you have seen along the way." Antico said as he raised his hand and asked someone to arrange a place for him to sit down.

After Hioloomos sat down, he smiled and said: "Your Majesty, when you arrive at Liskam, the capital of the Gilis Federation, you will order people to publicize the war, and at the same time inquire about Euphemia. , After inquiring, I actually found out something."

"Oh?" Antico asked curiously, "What did you find out?"

"According to the original words of a Gillis merchant ship owner, on the day of the coup, several suspicious women boarded his ship and came to Liscomb. After Liscomb disembarked, they chartered another car. Carriage, drive to the city."

"You mean, these women are likely to be Euphemia and her maid?" Antigonus said.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xieromos replied, and then said: "After they entered the city, they first stayed in a hotel in the city, and then went directly to the manor of the Consul of the Gilis Federation after a few days. , and there has been no news of her since then."

"Oh, that's true." Antigonus chuckled and said, this was within his expectation. He had already guessed that Euphemia would seek refuge with someone in the Federation Council, but she was quite capable. , to be able to directly find the Consul of the Federation - it's no wonder that it is easier to persuade the Consul directly than to persuade those congressmen.

Seeing Antigonus's expected expression, Sieromos paused for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty, should we take action to capture Euphemia?"

When he was on a mission to the Gillis Federation, he thought about proposing diplomatic intervention and extraditing Euphemia back to China, but considering that this might scare the enemy, and the success rate was not high, he did not propose it.

Antigonus waved his hand and said, "No, the Gilis will not hand over Euphemia to us so easily."

"Then shall we continue to let Euphemia threaten us?" Sieromos asked puzzled.

"I won't let her have a chance." Antigonus said with a cold look in his eyes.

Hioloomos saw Antigonus's appearance in his eyes, knowing that the young king had already made plans, so he had no intention of continuing to ask.After Antigonus withdrew his mind, he continued to ask.

"I forgot to ask, what is your result this time?"

"The Gillis backed down, Your Majesty." Hieromos replied, "The several victories you won quickly spread to Liscomb, which made the Federation Council take back the contempt in its heart, and gave up continuing to fight. A plan to fight against us."

Antico nodded, and said, "Their navy has indeed withdrawn early, and trade in the Aegean Sea has returned to normal."

"Your Majesty, do you just let off the Gillis who offended us so easily?" Hieromos couldn't help asking.

"Of course it's impossible." Antico shook his head, thinking of the spies he had sent out before, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and said, "I've been prepared for a long time, this must be a part of the Gillis people. An unprecedented gift!"

Seeing Antigonus's appearance, Hioloomos suddenly felt a chill in his heart, which made him shiver uncontrollably.

……

What Antigonus gave to the Gillis could indeed be called a great gift.

Long before the Battle of Arcelos, before Antigonus left Pella, he let the foreign battalion spies of the Ministry of Intelligence operate in the Gillies Federation to establish an intelligence network locally and look for good opportunities to attack.

His spies were indeed found. The Gillis Federation is not peaceful, and their national economy is unevenly distributed. Most of them are concentrated in the hands of the councilors in Liscomb City, and then the consuls and nobles of each city. The common people at the bottom live in poverty, and those living in the city are better off, but the peasants outside the city can only choose to attach themselves to the nobles and become their serfs to make ends meet.

In this situation of disparity between the rich and the poor, undercurrents are surging within the Gillis Federation, and a religion that claims to be Matthaeus has emerged. They widely recruit low-level civilians as believers, promising their future prosperity and wealth, and doing their best for the rebellion. Prepare.Although the high-level federal officials had heard about this religion for a long time, because of their weak strength, the congressmen didn't take it seriously, and just informed the local government to take precautions.

After receiving the news from the spies, Antigon took a fancy to this religion that was still absorbing strength. As a policeman in his previous life, he knew very well the dangers of cults. When he was in the police station, he often heard from his colleagues that I was deeply impressed by some cases of breaking superstition and anti-cult.Therefore, he believes in how powerful this religion can be in the age of ignorance-even people who have received compulsory education can be bewitched by religion, let alone these ignorant and ignorant low-level civilians.

Therefore, he asked the spies in the Gilis Federation to contact the leaders of the Matthaeus Cult, claiming that he was willing to provide material assistance for their operations, and to deliver weapons to them if necessary. This sudden assistance was of great help to the Matais who were short of supplies. It was a timely blessing for the Uth religion. After a short consideration, they accepted the conditions of the Macedonian spy and received assistance of two thousand silver coins from the latter.

I forgot to mention that the Ministry of Intelligence's apparent identity in the Gillis Federation is a Macedonian-registered business house that specializes in wandering between the Kingdom of Macedonia and the Gillis Federation. This is why the spies were able to take out two thousand silver coins at once.

With the support of the Ministry of Intelligence, Matthaeus is developing more and more rapidly, and the number of its followers has also expanded extremely, and it has even developed among the nobles in some cities. Antigonus believes that they will be able to Caused a huge rebellion - as to why the end of this year?That still has to mention the gap between the rich and the poor in the Gillis Federation. The end of each year is the coldest period of the year. During this time, the streets of the Gillis Federation freeze to death hundreds of poor people every year. If The Pope IQ Online taught by Matthaeus will definitely use this incident to attack the government.

At that time, there will be a stalemate war between the west and the Principality of Harlan outside, and there will be cult rebellions one after another inside, but there will be good fruits for the Gillis Federation.
