Alien Arms Empire

Chapter 255 Chapter 255 Let’s chat

In the southern part of the Kingdom of Wright, within the Kingdom of Dorne, in the square of a small town, a man was waving his fist and shouting at the top of his lungs: "They took away our food! They don't treat us as human beings! We Stand up and fight! Drive these **** from Dorne out of our lands!"

His feet were stepping on a wooden box with the logo of the Heron Kingdom Chamber of Commerce on it. This was flour shipped from afar, and it was also the reason why so many people gathered here.

 Because standing here and listening to this man’s speech, each of us can receive one kilogram of flour, which is not so fresh.

But flour is edible after all, even if it’s not so fresh. So everyone is willing to wait for a while, so it can be said that there is a sea of ​​people here.

The Kingdom of Dorne has been expanding rapidly. Although it has stabilized recently, it has still annexed land almost as large as itself, doubling its land area.

There were so many places to manage at once, so Dorne's internal affairs officials were also overwhelmed. They had to relax the management of some places and allow some low-level officials to expropriate the newly occupied lands.

  After all, war is about profit. In addition to building new land, the best way to make profit is to squeeze the labor force in the occupied areas.

 The management level lags behind, and the resources consumed by the war need to be replenished quickly. In addition, the whole kingdom is thinking about continuing to expand its military and prepare for war, so some dissatisfaction has arisen in the occupied areas.

 For ordinary farmers, confiscating their grain and taking away their wealth is a matter of sworn hatred.

In the crowd, no one knew whether it was a pre-arrangement or a farmer who was suddenly inspired by the situation. He raised his arms and angrily stirred up the emotions of the people around him: "Yes! They are simply beasts! We have worked so hard to cultivate them." Most of the food was taken away! We should drive them out!"

On the other side of the crowd, another man was encouraged. He also raised his arms and shouted angrily: "This is our country! Foreigners cannot be trusted after all!"

They did not lack courage and were determined to defend their country. It was only because the officials who sat on their heads were too greedy and fearful of death that their country was destroyed by Dorne.

Those greedy and cowardly armies had almost no combat effectiveness and were defeated by their opponents' new weapons. In the end, even the royal city fell.

 But this does not mean that they cannot defeat Dorne. As long as they have the same weapons as Dorne, they can regain everything they lost!

Now! Cyric promised to provide them with weapons, equally advanced weapons! They will soon be able to drive away Dorne's garrison, make themselves new officials, new slave owners and farmers, and let themselves rule the country!

Thinking of this, this "To" who was waving his fists and fanning secretly shouted even harder: "This is our country! Foreigners cannot be trusted after all!"

The crowd was agitated and became noisy. Everyone was whispering, and many young people could no longer hide the fire in their eyes.

At this time, an honest farmer stood in the crowd holding a hoe, and questioned with some anxiety: "But...in the past, those farmers and slave owners...also took away most of our food."

　　Yes, in his opinion, those former officials were no better than the officials in Dorne.

They also seize the daughters of common people, molest farmers' wives, impose heavy taxes, and take away every copper coin they have.

Immediately, someone stood up and shouted to him: "That's different! We used to pay taxes, and that was also for our own nobles! Now the people of Dorne have occupied this place, and they take more!"

It’s not enough to have a group of outsiders sharing the cake anyway. As for whether these outsiders really took away more, who knows?

 A woman seemed to be afraid that the men in her family were going to fight again, so she asked nervously: "They have guns! What do we have? Stones?"

　　The man standing on the box proudly announced something loudly: "We also have guns! Master Henry has contacted Cyric's people, and they have promised to provide us with weapons!"

This so-called Master Henry is actually a large slave owner nearby. Most people here are afraid of this ruthless nobleman, so the voices of doubts have suddenly become quieter.

 But there are still some people who are afraid of fighting, because they have not seen the Dornish army passing through this town.

 At least, the army seemed to be well-disciplined and did not do any harm to civilians. When passing by, the young officer leading the army left a lot of food.

It’s just that the local official who came here later to take over the town was really hateful and found another reason to confiscate all the grain.

So, someone continued to ask the man standing on the box giving a speech: "But can we defeat the army?"

"Don't worry! Soon, the Kingdom of Shiron in the south and the Kingdom of Talon further south will attack Dorne! We are not alone!" The man standing on the box continued to encourage everyone. Then, the several strong men standing beside him helped him open the box at his feet with understanding and took out the food that had been distributed long ago.

They distributed the cloth bags to the civilians one by one, and then asked them to put their fingerprints on a piece of paper. Literate farmers have seen it, and it is a voucher for receiving grain, and there are no excessive requirements.

 “Down with Dorne!” Soon, the people who had received the food became excited. For them, whoever gave them food was right.

This is the most basic bribery path. As long as you give enough, you can gain the support of the person who received the benefit. Sometimes these civilians are ignorant and short-sighted. They only consider immediate interests, but often ignore or trample on their own long-term interests or the interests of others...

More and more people started shouting, and many people seemed to feel that the rulers of Dorne should be driven away.

 “Take back everything we lost!” they shouted crazily, and many people who blindly followed them had already raised their pitchforks or farm tools.

"We will rule Dorne in turn! There are more fertile fields there!" The man who gave the speech said righteously: "When our weapons are secretly transported, we can raise our own flag high! Become the leader of this land. Owner!"

Many farmers also became excited. They thought of distant, legendary places: "We want to take back Port Rewind! I heard there is gold everywhere there!"

 “We are going to break into Leyte! Break into Bunas!” More greedy people followed and joined the crazy team.

 A storm is brewing in Dorne...

 …

"Your Highness the Prince...are you crazy..." Tang Mo looked at the girl standing in front of him - or if she could really be called a girl... and asked the orc standing next to him.

This may be a bit different from Tang Mo's traditional understanding of girls. In other words, the girl standing in front of him is actually the existence he called the "beast mother" in his memory of his previous life.

At this moment, the girl standing in front of Tang Mo had furry ears on both sides of her head, which made Tang Mo feel unbearably hot all over his body.

The other party was also sizing up Tang Mo. His big, beautiful eyes were swaying, making the man unable to help but feel the urge to commit a crime.

It has to be said that before Tang Mo traveled through time, he had seen many beauties. The Alice he met after traveling through time was also a first-class beauty. But the temptation standing in front of him now, he... really didn't. Challenged.

"This is the one we selected among the refugees from the Kingdom of Gales. His Royal Highness the Prince means... she... is our... gift to thank Mr. Tang." The orc who sent the cat-eared girl over said very humbly.

"It's not good...how can a person be used as a gift?" Tang Mo refused with a guilty conscience, and even he could hear the wavering and reluctance in his voice.

 He is not a loyal martyr, nor is he Liu Xiahui. When faced with such novel...beautiful things, he is still very exploratory.

"Your Highness, please accept her...if you don't, she will be killed when she returns." The orc envoy from afar recommended stubbornly.

Orcs may be the most ridiculous race in the world. Among their women, there may be exotic beauties, but the men are ugly with green faces and fangs. There is no way to describe them as a good match.

It just so happens that the genes of orc men are extremely strong in boys, and the genes of orc women are passed on to female orcs, so the world really has such a strange race where the men are ugly and the women are beautiful.

 In fact, Tang Mo, apart from being a little moved for a moment, really didn't think about how to deal with this cat-eared girl.

Stay with me as a personal maid or something, and you are worried about loyalty. When serving tea and water, you are afraid that this woman will be poisoned and assassinated. Even if it is just a night of fun, Tang Mo doesn't want to be a romantic ghost under the peonies.

This is the same as when rich people go to nightclubs. Although beautiful women are good, it is easy to lose more things. Therefore, under normal circumstances, they stay away from unfamiliar situations, and the same is true for unfamiliar people - Brother Qiangdong does not believe in evil. , so I suffered a severe blow. This is a **** lesson!

 “Kill? What a waste of natural resources.” Tang Mo rubbed his chin and sighed: “Then just stay! With such a beautiful woman, it’s okay to chat if you have nothing to do... Are you right? Weiss?”

"Well, you're right." Weiss glanced at Tang Mo and said teasingly: "That's right."
