Public trial?You deserve it too!

When the scene was silent, Claude began to speak again without haste.

"You may be wondering: Why do you abide by the law and never provoke disputes, but face such vicious and brutal suppression?"

"Let me tell you - just because you have enjoyed the rights you should have enjoyed!"

Claude's voice rose.

"Let me tell you what kind of life the common people live outside of the Orphan Gang's territory! The small traders sold countless goods, but found that they didn't even have enough money to buy them; the husbands did nothing. A day's work, but can't get enough wages to feed their families; wives are terrified, covering their faces with dirt and dust, just because they fear that their inherent beauty will bring them boundless bad luck !"

The young man's face was full of great anger, and the miserable description in his mouth made those who had experienced it clenched their fists, made those who had heard and seen it terrified, and made those who never knew it fear.

"This is what the nobles do, this is what the gangs they form do - they greedily oppress and exploit all non-aristocratic people, they will take away the black bread in your hand, even if his family's steak It's all for the dogs; he'll take the rags from your hands, even if his rich gowns are burned once worn. They'll take the last copper from your hands, even if his gold coins They all crushed the floor!"

"This is the nobility!"

Claude raised his arm and clenched his fist fiercely.

"What kind of gang is the Orphan Gang? I think everyone knows that each of us is equal. No one can oppress anyone, and no one can take away from anyone. The Orphan Gang has proved that a group composed of What a gang of commoners can bring to everyone—a life of peace and abundance for all!"

"Because we did not oppress civilians according to the rules they set, because we are a gang composed of every civilian, so they will regard us as a thorn in the flesh - because in their eyes, civilians are their crops and should be treated by them." Reaping with swords, guns and sticks - and we set a bad example, a bad example that will encourage the crops to rise up against them!"

He swept the crowd with a coercive gaze.

"Yes, crops, this is what those nobles see you, this is the rules they made, this is the life they want you to live too! So they are coming to attack us! They want to destroy our gang, To eliminate our existence, they want to completely make the people here look like the crops they manage!"

The boy's roar caught everyone's heart, their breathing became heavy, and their hands were clenched into fists.

"They want to take your bread because they want to satisfy their superior lives! They want to take your wives and daughters because they want to satisfy their ugly desires! They want to make slaves of you all because They need to satisfy their own pleasure of dominating other people!"

"Say, my brothers and sisters, what shall we do!"

In the silence, there was an undercurrent surging and erupting.

"We fight them!"

A shout from the crowd immediately turned the silence into loud and restless.

"Yes! Fight them!"

"Absolutely can't lose!"

"I absolutely don't want to go back to that kind of life again! I don't want to die!"

Claude turned his head slightly, and Friedrich immediately jumped onto the high platform. As the leader of the Orphan Gang, everyone knew him of course.

He looked at his followers affectionately, drew out the sword in his hand, and raised it up to the sky,

"Who wants to follow me - fight them to the end!"

Claude immediately drew his sword and raised it to the sky.

"I am willing!"

"I am willing!"

"I am willing!"

"I am willing!"

......

The raised arms converged into a forest, and the angry roars converged into a mountain roar and a tsunami.

Everyone is screaming selflessly, everyone is roaring passionately, they are no longer an individual person at this time, but condensed into a complete will——

In order to protect everything he owns, he waged war on anyone who dared to snatch it.

Learn from me: Chapter 220 Chapter [-] The conspiracy that never stops

Several horse-drawn carriages with imperial-style ordnance stopped at several gathering points, and the orphans were distributing weapons—maces, flails, and daggers. After all, what matters in street fighting is not whether you wear armor, but whether you can break through The opponent's armor.

If they were really only dealing with gang members, kitchen knives and pitchforks tied to wooden sticks would be more or less effective, but counting those knights, they still needed some regular armor-piercing weapons.

The source of these weapons was that Claude bought them from other gangs last night.

This is thanks to Augustus - in order to prepare for the uprising, he organized as many people as possible, and smuggled countless weapons to these gangs in the imperial capital, from gold coins to weapons, as long as they are willing to organize people, Augustus gave everything.

He and Claude wanted to go together, and both wanted to get some help from the huge civilian population in the imperial capital, but what Augustus wanted was cannon fodder to delay time, so he just instructed those gangs to expand unrestrainedly scale, but did not give any training support other than money and weapons.

As a matter of course, "blind military expansion" without supervision can only bring about one consequence, which is to set off a frenzy of empty pay.A large number of hooligans who pretend to be numbers are recruited by those gangs, just as a number, and even the gangs themselves don't look down on these people.

So even Claude, no, it should be said that anyone, as long as they can get yellow gold coins, they will happily sell the weapons piled up in the warehouse to each other.

Just make money!

So Claude got a few carts of weapons very easily, enough to arm thousands of people. Randolph helped a little.

Normally, he might not care about such things as cheating and cheating, but in this situation, he still wants to avoid some actions that may cause accidents as much as possible.

Angry crowds were pouring in all directions, shouting for more people to join them, and at the same time, under the command of veterans who had combat experience, they began to set up barricades at various intersections, as well as some blocking ropes and chains .

In normal times, this kind of behavior would have aroused the vigilance of the patrol team early, but unfortunately, the riots in other areas have already squeezed out the manpower reserve of the patrol team, and even black smoke rose from all over the imperial capital. , it looks like a doomsday scene where the empire has fallen.

Of course, it's just a look.

Looking at the sunset that had already set in the west, Claude moved his wrist.

Friedrich and Randolph have already gone to the lower city to start their journey of throwing coins and demolition. Georgi is inspecting the design of barricades and the deployment of defensive echelons in various streets. It is necessary to ensure the areas that need to be defended first. , so as not to be washed away.

On the other hand, he led two hundred of the most elite gang members, quietly waiting for the fire to start in the upper city.

That was the signal, which meant that he would immediately take down the connecting road between Midtown and Uptown, and stick to it, clearing the way for the guard knights to move forward.

Of course, he has more important things to do.

Last night, before returning to his dormitory, he had already imprinted the son of the Grand Duke of Brittany, and the system had activated this tracking beacon.

"I'm sorry, there will be nothing left to kill you."

Claude apologized to the air without sincerity, and picked up the two heavy maces in his hand.

Because he has already seen that the sky of the upper city, which was originally empty, has also seen black smoke representing war.

A burst of fireworks, accompanied by the earth-shattering thunder, resounded throughout the imperial capital.

-------------------------------------------------- -

The inspection ceremony in the morning went very smoothly. The emperor was very happy and said that he would have a meal with the students in the Imperial Military University at noon. In the heart of the emperor" achievement.

However, the fly in the ointment was that the First Prince Augustus said that he was feeling unwell and wanted to go back and rest for a while, so that he could attend the dinner in a better state at night.

If the third prince Ludwig is still patrolling the border at this time, it means that none of the possible heirs of the future empire will be there, which makes the students feel a little regretful—after all, compared with the emperor's favor at their age, , they hope to win the favor of these two Highnesses.

After all, time is always on the side of the young, isn't it?

When the sun started to go west, the emperor was obviously satisfied with today's itinerary. He said goodbye to the students and prepared to return to the palace. He also approved the nobles' resignation and asked them not to forget to go to the palace to attend the dinner tonight.

Seeing these people scattered, as if they were going back to their respective mansions, the emperor silently narrowed his eyes.

"I have set up the stage for you to become the current situation. I think, if you still can't grasp it, it means that the son I gave birth to is not just a villain with a lot of money, but a simple person It's useless trash."

The old man tapped the armrest of the seat with his fingers, signaling the guards to leave.

When his car left the Imperial Military University, the team immediately expanded the security area. Within two streets around the emperor, there were knights from the Third Guards Knights.

And the guards around the emperor have quietly changed a group of people.

As the car drove slowly, the old man's expression became more and more relaxed, as if it was really just an ordinary tour outside the palace.

fire.

Seeing black smoke rising from all directions, the emperor nodded in approval.

"That's right, I still haven't lost my sense of the battlefield."

A dozen fast horses galloped up to the emperor's chariot. The news brought by these knights was the same. The fire was spreading, and an unknown number of enemy troops were attacking. There were fire and arrows in all directions. The entire army had been destroyed. completely surrounded.

The emperor did not directly issue an order, but nodded to the mage who was quietly waiting for instructions, and the other party immediately shot a burst of fireworks into the sky, which was gorgeous and deafening.

"Order that the peripheral troops stay on the spot and do not take a step back. At the same time, immediately set up a second-line defensive position, demolish buildings, and build firebreaks. The first batch of combat troops will not be allowed to retreat until all preparations are completed. Those who violate the order will be executed. "

The emperor did not begin to issue orders to his knights until this signal for help, which was tantamount to a rebel urging talisman, was issued.

So the whole army started running immediately, and every knight resolutely carried out the emperor's order.

And those knights who were attacked first, faced with thick smoke and fire, and the vicious shooting of countless crossbow arrows, they stubbornly stood in place, relying on some solid buildings, and then put the dead comrades and horses' corpses Stacked together, a thin, but extremely tragic interception line was formed.

Seeing that the opponent still stabilized their position under their own first round of raids, and even launched a small-scale countercharge, and the faintly visible knights who were shrinking their defenses clearly told the attackers that their predecessors Machines are flying by.

The nobles finally realized that although they seized the gap formed by the emperor's "momentary carelessness" and set up an ambush for the opponent, what they were facing was the army with the most determined fighting will and the most fearless death in the entire empire.

And the signal for help that shot straight into the sky, which was constantly warning the periphery of the imperial capital, made them even more anxious.

"We have... there is no way out!"

When this sentence was uttered by a nobleman through gritted teeth, it was doomed that this war had just entered the bloodiest stage!

-----------------------------------------------------------

"Wow, this movement is really earth-shattering. Don't those who made it think it's too noisy?"

The robed man commented on the fireworks with great interest.

"No, this spell will only make a sound when it reaches the top, and the people below will also set up magic defenses."

Joachim squeezed the wine glass in his hand, looking at the robed man with a cloudy face.

He didn't expect that after nearly three years, the secret spy of the Theocracy came to his mansion again and brought such shocking news.

His elder half-brother, Augustus, who he thought he had already acquired the position of crown prince after his fall, would resort to a coup d'etat, a desperate method, to launch the most decisive and decisive move against that chair. The last shock.

"What the hell... what happened!"

"What happened? Do you still need to ask this kind of question now? Isn't the answer already straightforward in front of you?"

The man in the robe showed no interest in explaining the question.

"Augustus lost. He lost cleanly and thoroughly. He can no longer become the crown prince. No, it should be said that even the slightest possibility has disappeared. Otherwise, why should he choose What about this path of winning or dying?"

Joachim didn't speak, he also thought of what the robed man said, but he subconsciously asked that question because of the fact that he was too shocked.

He can still stay in the imperial capital now, which can basically be described as "begging for nothing", so in the past three years, he has been almost completely blind to the outside world, and only very little news can flow into this place that has been almost surrounded by people. The residence of the forgotten second prince.

So he doesn't know why the situation has developed into the way it is now. His attitude towards seizing the heir is still at the same time as two years ago, when Augustus fell into a big fight in the province of Provence—that is, Augustus Both are still powerful, and Ludwig still has to rely on the emperor's eccentricity to survive.

But the robe now ran over to tell him that the battle for the heirloom had come to an end, Ludwig had won the final victory, and there was no room for any possible reversal, forcing Augustus to use this method Come to forcibly change fate against the sky.

This is simply incredible!

You know, even if he is a good dancer in the officialdom and has a lot of contacts, he can only barely protect himself in the face of Augustus' suppression.

And Ludwig, who has been on the battlefield all year round, has no connections or official friendship in the imperial capital, and is a complete "outsider"!

It's just that he got some remnants of the forces under his command. How could he defeat Augustus and do things that he couldn't even do?

why?

On what?

Why!

In this world, the most embarrassing thing is not that you can't reach a certain height - after all, people still have some self-knowledge, and they know whether they can do some things, just because they are not reconciled, That's why he clings to a glimmer of hope and refuses to let go.

However, when a guy who you think is far inferior to you, a guy who you look down on at all, a guy who you have never considered a threat to yourself in the past, replaces your original position, accomplishes things that you can hardly do, and embarks on A height that I can't touch at all!

Such a scene is the most unacceptable.

The ugliest thoughts, the craziest behaviors, and the most primitive sins in the human heart will gradually shake the bottom line that a person can stick to in the face of such facts.

In Joachim's heart now, there is no room for anything other than jealousy and anger.

The flame of hatred was burning Joachim's heart, torturing him to the point that he couldn't bear it at all——

Why can Augustus beat himself, but lose to Ludwig who he doesn't even look down on?

Is it because I am not as good as Ludwig?

Impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible!impossible!impossible!Impossible impossible impossible impossible!

impossible! ! ! !

"Yeah, I didn't expect it to be like this. I can only say that the emperor's favor is really an incredible thing—but that's right, after all, he is the most supreme person in the entire empire. Everything is in front of him. It all has to be twisted to suit his whim."

The robed man sighed.
