Chapter 211 The Choice of King Stentel

"So that's how it is... Human race, it's really filthy." Tossos Sik said disdainfully.

The reaction of his major general made Vincy Dahl startled for a moment, his mouth opened, but he didn't say anything in the end, but looked at Dun Sick who was still eating the roast leg of lamb in a leisurely manner.

Of course, Dunn Sick understood what his confidantes meant, and after thinking about it, he said in person, "Our orcs may not be much better, otherwise those big nobles who control the production of ordnance materials will not be firm. Destroyed the Stantel faction.

Like those great nobles of the human race, they are eager for the war to continue. Only by war can they make a lot of money. "

"What?!" Tossos Sik had an unbelievable expression on his face.

"This world is not beautiful. Except for the tree people who are too lazy to move their feet on weekdays, the other races are similar. The benefits are touching... Otherwise, Teacher Sartre would not..."

Dunn Sik didn't finish his sentence, but the wise Tossos asked with his eyes wide open, almost gnashing his teeth in a low voice.

"Could it be that Grandpa Sartre is them..."

"Just know it, don't say it." Dun Sick said calmly, but the meat-picking knife in his hand was too hard, and the mutton was a bit big.

"How could it be like this... This is too abominable..." After all, Tosos Sik was still young, and it was still difficult to hold his breath.

"This world is like this. If it were so beautiful, I would not take you and your two sisters to live in the four counties of Western Xinjiang and not return to the imperial capital, and I would not refuse the duke-level award. I just want to keep the title of Earl. One-third of the land in one of the four counties in Xinjiang was taken as a fief.

It was thanks to Mr. Sartre's hard work at the beginning that I was able to successfully maintain the title of earl and at the same time retain the establishment of the Black Wolf Army, otherwise, I would probably be an idle duke in the imperial capital now, or even..."Dune Sick shook his head and didn't continue talking.

"..." Tossos Seek seemed a little unacceptable, bowed his head and said nothing.

At this time Vincy Dahl whispered, "Major General, please remember that sometimes being too good is not necessarily a good thing. Just say that the current Southern Expedition, we are not incapable of quickly ending the battle, but we cannot go Do.

The last Marshal of Nanzheng was the representative of the interests of those people. No matter what the reason was, if he failed and we succeeded easily, the Beast Emperor might be very happy, but those big nobles might not be happy. He would even secretly point the finger at the marshal. "

"The loser's bark?" Tossos Sik looked up at Vincy Dahl.

"Arrogance, conceit, narrow-mindedness, and greed are the truest portrayals of them. They don't want us frontier countrymen to stand out, and they can't bear to use failure to set off our brilliance." Vincy Dahl said with a serious face, "Old Sartre When the marshal was here, he could still speak out for us in the imperial capital, now...the major general must remember that we must be cautious in the future..."

As soon as Vincy Dahl finished speaking, a scout from the Black Wolf Legion ran over quickly. After he came to the fire and gave a military salute to Dun Sike, he presented the latest Dawn Daily.

After receiving the report, Duane Sick asked, "Is there any change in the Stantel army?"

The scout replied, "Reporting to the Marshal, there is nothing, the defense line is still shrinking."

Duane Sik nodded slightly, "Expand the scope of the scouts, attack carefully across the board, and closely monitor every move of the Stantel army."

"Yes!"

After the scouts retreated, Duane Sick directly flipped through this issue of the Shuguang Daily, and when he saw the front page, he squinted his eyes and read it several times, but couldn't help sighing, "Interesting, Vincent, Take a look too."

Vincy Dahl on the side took the newspaper and read it, but frowned, "Marshal, the Lord of Dawn City is really ambitious."

Duane Sik said with a smile, "Do you still remember that in the intelligence we collected earlier, there was information about the equal rights and obligations of all ethnic groups in the laws and regulations of Dawn City?"

"Phew~" Vincy Dahl let out a long breath, "All races... It seems that he has no repulsion or hatred for orcs, at least in terms of regulations. In addition, the privileges enjoyed by the nobles in Dawn City are greatly restricted. Compression, and even implicitly promoting the glory of the new nobility, wanting to fundamentally change everything... This is a lunatic, he wants to be the enemy of all nobles."

"Yes, the call for peace in the newspaper is simply a blatant test of our attitude. He wants Stantel to be chaotic and not perish, and he wants us to be a butcher knife without going out of line. He provides a win-win road, and Self-righteously planned their own gains and losses.

Too conceited, but has the capital to be conceited... Wenxi, how about I send a mission to infiltrate the border of Dawn City, and then enter Dawn City openly for a friendly visit? "

Vincy Dahl lowered his head and pondered for a while, then said, "Multiple actions are achieved at one stroke, but, Marshal, his attitude is too ambiguous, it's very risky, once he can't withstand the pressure, our envoys will be in danger."

"Isn't the consistent combat style of our Black Wolf Legion just taking risks?"

"Marshal, how should we explain to the above?"

"I have to wrong you. It is enough to divide the five hundred magic rifles and send them back to the imperial capital. It is enough to say that we want to obtain magic weapons from Dawn City."

Vincy Dahl smiled, "It's a trivial matter, Marshal, I only need a dozen or so rods. Using real objects to block the mouths of those big nobles is like sending an excuse to their door. Presumably some big nobles Even if the nobles are not grateful to us, they should not interfere too much in the affairs of the Southern Expedition."

"They don't care about this kind of small favor, but it's enough for the Beast Emperor to stop for a while.

Let it be settled.Well, let me make a public statement to support this 'Anonymous' appeal for peace. Vinci sent people to actively contact certain nobles in Stentel to express that our two clans can definitely live in peace. "

"As ordered."

......

In the past few days, King Stantel's capital is full of blood. It's not that the orc army has visited again, but that there are dozens of horrific human corpses hanging on the tower of the East City Gate, which makes people dare not look directly at them.

It was rumored that these little nobles wanted to betray the human race, betrayed the Kingdom of Stentel, and secretly surrendered to the orcs, so King Stentel would order these people to be executed and gather military power.

It is so popular among the people that many common people also agree with and support their king Leili's execution of traitors, but in the hearts of some nobles, they don't think so.

Many nobles have seen that this is their king's preemptive attack, wanting to kill chickens and monkeys, and deter some big nobles who have ulterior motives.

Otherwise, it would not be those little unknown nobles hanging on the East City Gate.

But, is this kind of deterrent really effective?

Many people of insight secretly expressed their doubts, especially after the orc army changed its strategy of complete conquest, could the nobles of Stentel really be able to unite as one?

What's more, the advantage that was rarely gained through the new army is now lost to the orc cavalry. Now Stantel's situation is worse than when the war first started.

Many people of insight who are truly concerned about the country and the people are somewhat desperate at this moment.

At this time, Luke Stentel, the king of Stentel, was in a side hall of the palace, staring at the Dawn Daily on the table in a daze.

On the ground not far from the table, a porcelain teacup was smashed to pieces, and the entire side hall was empty. There were no palace maids, only Luke Stentel.

I don't know how long it took, Luke Stentel stood up from the chair with absent-minded eyes, pulled out his sword, looked at his haggard face from the bright sword, and muttered to himself, "Should I What to do...Even the Holy See of Holy Light is planning to withdraw...wait for death, or..."

【Dear Your Majesty Luke Stentel, maybe you need help? 】

The sudden voice in his mind made Luke Stentel's body tense, and his hand holding the hilt of the sword became stronger.

"Scrap from the abyss, haven't you learned enough lessons from the Beast Emperor? Get lost, there is no place for you in this world!"

[Oh, dear His Majesty Luke Stentel, please don't get excited, Axbury just wanted to provide a little help, and there was no malice. 】

"Hmph! Evil bastards, there is no need for..."

[Maybe you need a strong army now to reverse the situation?How about an army that is loyal to you, fearless of death, and marches forward bravely, an army so strong that even the orc wolf cavalry would shy away? 】

"..."

[Dear Your Majesty, Axbury is not evil. Look at those orc armies, after accepting Axbury's gift, they gained the ability to burst out for a short time. Although the maintenance time is not long, they are not No sequelae, look, how merciful Axbury is, not only providing those orc soldiers with means to become stronger, but also considering their health and safety. 】

"Hmph! Sure enough, the method to make the orc soldiers stronger for a short time comes from the abyss, but the lonely king of the human race does not need the mercy of demons..."

[The Stantel family has been passed down for hundreds of years, which is a pity. Really, even Axbury feels sorry...]

"shut up!!"

Luke Stentel shouted angrily, and cut the long table in front of him in half with a sword.

The huge movement naturally alarmed the guards outside the hall, and just as those guards were about to rush in to escort them, Luke Stentel stopped shouting, "No one is allowed to enter the hall!!"

"Yes!!"

Across the gate of the side hall, after the guards responded, they carefully moved away from the side hall and stationed outside.

【Oh, my dear Majesty, please don't be angry, with Axbury's help, everything will be fine. 】

"Humph."

【Axbury only needs life and soul. Whether it is human or orc, Axbury doesn't care. As long as the war and killing continue, Axbury will be very happy.Your Majesty, you don't need to pay anything at all. 】

"..."

【Your Majesty, the glory of the Stentel family and the dream of the Great Stentel Empire are actually not difficult to realize. 】

"..."

【Axbury can feel that some selfish nobles seem to be planning to retreat. They are trampling on the majesty of the Stentel family and King Stentel.They, damn it? 】

"Say, what should I do." Luke Stentel, expressionless, slowly closed his saber, slowly sat on the chair, and looked ahead, with fierceness, hatred, and unwillingness in his eyes , more is - crazy!

【Dear Your Majesty, it's very simple, you just need to do what Axbury asked, and you can easily get what you want...】

"Stop talking nonsense!"

【Oh, oh, I'm so impatient, my lord, you just need to...】

......

In a building outside the palace, Charl Duronda looked through the window with a complex expression in the direction of a side hall of the palace. After a long time, he closed his eyes and let out a long sigh, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry..."

Chapter 212

According to the common calendar in the mainland, at the end of mid-November 3114, the temperature in the southern border of Stentel began to drop sharply, and the cold current gradually began to ravage the land. Get ready for winter.

However, unlike previous years, people did not appear worried or even helpless whenever the first snowfall approached. Instead, they seemed calm and full of confidence in everything.

There is no other reason, all because this year there is an additional city of miracles in Kerton Province - Dawn City.

With Aurora City, people no longer worry about not having enough food and winter clothes. The days of hunger and cold are gone forever.Because Dawn City provides ample jobs, as long as they are willing to work hard, no matter how stupid people are, they can get paid to meet the most basic needs of life.Of course, lazy people can also live well, because the "labor reform center" will make all lazy people "happily" become hardworking, simple, positive and qualified citizens.

After the basic necessities of life are guaranteed, people don't have to worry about the situation in previous years, when bandits and horse thieves would go down the mountain to plunder winter supplies on a large scale.Now the garrison of Dawn City wished for more bandits and horse thieves for training and actual combat experience, but the result was counterproductive, probably because they used too much force, which made it difficult to find even a thief in the once bandit-ridden province of Kerton.Those large horse thieves and robber gangs were either wiped out by the Dawn City garrison, or they were afraid of the power of the Dawn City garrison, surrendered obediently, and consciously walked into the "labor reform center", or they just ran away because they didn't want to be good and didn't want to be killed. , far away from the boundaries of Kerton Province, all in all, the current law and order in Kerton Province has reached an unprecedented, even unbelievable level, and it is very close to the level of "not picking up lost items on the road, and not closing the house at night".

In addition to material and life safety guarantees, people don't have to worry about the day when those nobles will have a brain attack and forcefully requisition winter supplies.Because the nobles in Dawn City are different from other places, the nobles in Dawn City need to abide by laws and moral norms, and must shoulder the corresponding obligations. Apart from the glory, they are similar to ordinary Dawn City citizens.

Of course, the nobles who were unwilling to abide by all these were either robbed and killed by "horse thieves" or "voluntarily" left the sphere of influence of Dawn City.However, there were very few nobles who remained, but they all cautiously abided by the new norms for nobles in Dawn City.

Therefore, the people in Kerton Province have no hesitation or fear about this winter, and even have infinite yearning for a happy future.

Now the entire Kelton Province is secretly under the control of Dawn City. The former Consul of Kelton Province and the lord of Ginocol City—Earl Renoias has also officially joined the Department of Commerce of Dawn City. Deputy Director Zuo is gone. Although it has not been made public, judging from the current situation, the day of making it public is not far away.

At this time, Kerton Province, that is, the population under the Dawn City system is as high as 450 million. It has five army corps with a full strength of 5 people, and an air force corps with 3000 people. The navy has only one framework. After all, Kerton The province of Thon is not bordered by the ocean, and there are no major rivers in its territory.

In general, there are now nearly 30 well-equipped troops stationed in Kerton Province, but lacking in training and actual combat experience. This is already a fairly large military force.Not to mention that the 30 troops are all new troops equipped with magical weapons, and their combat effectiveness is strong enough to make any force look sideways.

More importantly, once the training and actual combat experience of the 30 army catch up, even a fool will know that it is absolutely impossible for this army to continue to be used as a decoration at home.

At this time, most of the merchants and insightful people in Dawn City, no matter how stupid they are, can see the "wolf ambition" of the top management of Dawn City.

However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that most of the residents of Dawn City will definitely support their city lord to expand.Not only the common people will support blindly, but also the merchants will support it, because only by further expansion can we obtain more stable markets and more benefits in a safe and secure manner.For the merchant class who accepted the business ideas of Dawn City, market expansion was an absolutely irresistible temptation.

Of course, there are also some insightful people who fled from the north and criticized them out of their loyalty to the Kingdom of Stentel, but they have no real power, no reputation in the Kelton province, and they have nothing to say. people respond.

Even the officials of Dawn City don't bother to pay attention to them, as long as they don't go too far and abide by the laws and ethics of Dawn City, no one will care what these literati who only talk about it, anyway, they can only be in The bb is whispered at home or in a tavern, and there is no trouble.

In fact, these people did not dare to stir up trouble. If they were not afraid of death, they would not choose to flee south at this time, but stayed on the front line to live and die with King Stantel.

On the whole, everything in Dawn City is proceeding in an orderly manner, especially as the entire system gradually becomes more perfect, the development speed of Dawn City, or Kelton Province, will show an exponential growth rate. level leap.

And this is also thanks to Zhao Guo's full support, otherwise, no matter who does it, even if they have the best ability, they will not be able to establish a power with a population of several million in just a few months.

But just when everything in Kerton Province was unfolding in an orderly manner, the latest issue of Shuguang Daily made a big news.

The front page of this issue of Dawn Daily was officially released in the official name of Dawn City - "Report on the Definition of New Nobility"!

Its content is roughly as follows:

The definition of a new aristocracy——

The glory of nobility is not determined by blood, but by the number of positive contributions to social development.

The glory of the nobility comes from the grace of the Lord and the respect of the people.

As a nobleman, when enjoying the grace of the Lord and the respect of the people, he must assume corresponding responsibilities and obligations.

Responsibilities and Obligations of Nobility——

First, earnestly study the great unification thought of the new generation of the Shuguang system, learn magic, fighting spirit, science, culture, law and business knowledge, and strive to improve the ability to serve the people.

Second, implement the basic development line and various policies and policies of the Lord and Suguang system, take the lead in participating in the construction of a new generation of unification, drive the people to work hard for economic development and social progress, and take the lead in production, work, study, and social life. Pioneer role model.

[-]. Adhere to the interests of the Lord and the people above all else, submit personal interests to the interests of the Lord and the people, put hardship before enjoyment, self-denial and public service, and make more contributions.

Fourth, consciously abide by the glory and responsibility of the new nobles, carry forward the new social trend of the Shuguang system, and stand up in all difficult and dangerous moments in order to protect the interests of the country and the people, fight bravely, and not be afraid of sacrifice...... .

These more than ten definitions of new nobility have completely subverted the world's cognition. On the day this content was released, it directly detonated the public opinion trend in the entire Kerton province. A storm arose.

Even after reading this newspaper, the nobles from outside almost publicly condemned Shuguang City collectively, saying that the "New Noble Definition Statement" was a humiliation and provocation to the nobles, etc., and some extreme nobles even clamored to give Shuguang An unforgettable lesson and so on.

It's a pity that Dawn City didn't bother to respond at all, just like watching a monkey show, adopting a cold-eyed attitude.

On the contrary, this further angered those nobles, and even some nobles who danced happily clamored for direct use of force or something.

But soon, those nobles discovered that they couldn't really do it, not because they didn't have the confidence to defeat Dawn City, but because they couldn't sever ties with Dawn City.

Because magic weapons are unique products in Dawn City, and many nobles have thought about dismantling and imitating them after obtaining magic weapons, but they found that after a few years, a large number of imitations are hopeless. If they don't want to fall behind other forces, they can only buy them at high prices. Weapons of Dawn City.

After all, the nobles also have enemies, whether it is the nobles with neighboring lands or the conflicts between countries, they must always maintain their military advantages, and the minimum must be equal.

Because of this, they simply cannot sever ties with Dawn City in the short term.
