Chapter 578 The fourth wonder! Flying big screen! ! !
The Dandelion Family intends to persuade the king and other great nobles in the House of Lords not to provide assistance to the Kingdom of Bollen and to participate in the division of the Kingdom of Bollen.
It is actually not too difficult to achieve this. As a country neighboring the Kingdom of Bolun, the Kingdom of Lensa naturally had such an idea.
There are also different opinions within the Kingdom of Lensa. Some people believe that if the Kingdom of Bollen is not helped, the Kingdom of Lensa will suffer the same fate in a few decades.
Some people think that they should participate in the division now. As for the future, the Frost Moon Kingdom may not be able to remain strong for so many years. If it fails to govern this land well, it may be forced to withdraw from the land of the Bollen Kingdom in the future.
Now, if the Kingdom of Lensa helps the Kingdom of Bolun, it is very likely that it will not get any benefits, but if it helps the Kingdom of Frost Moon... it may have a chance to get a piece of fat meat.
And now, the Dandelion Family has received news from Rand and learned that Rand is preparing to intervene.
Then the plan will become more exciting, and the benefits and risks will be magnified.
If the Dandelion Family only represented the interests of the Kingdom of Lensa, then things would be easy to handle, but now it has become involved with Rand... It seems that this foresighted and terrifying Grand Duke cannot be shaken off for the time being.
Originally, the Dandelion Family sent a letter to Rand hoping that Rand would intervene, so that the Dandelion Family could gain more say in the Kingdom of Lunsa. The reason is... if Rand intervened, the people of Se could only use the identities of warriors summoned by the Dandelion Family.
Moreover, Rand would never reveal his identity and let the secret collusion between the Dandelion Family and Rand be exposed to the eyes of other nobles and royal family of the Kingdom of Lunsa.
Because if this is exposed, the benefits that the Dandelion family can bring to Rand will be greatly reduced. A family suspected of treason obviously cannot continue to be competent as Rand's speaker in the Kingdom of Lunsa.
And if Rand did not reveal his identity as the person who interfered with the Serbian people, then the Dandelion Family would have made a huge contribution to the Kingdom of Lensa's participation in the division of the Kingdom of Borun, and would have demonstrated the family's strong strength.
Of course, the prerequisite for all this is that after returning, one can convince other great nobles and royal families in the country to agree to participate in the division.
At this time, Rand, who was in the military camp, could actually guess some of the Dandelion family's thoughts.
But I don’t really care about these.
Everyone in this world has their own ideas and calculations. This is normal and reasonable.
Now that the Dandelion Family is taking the risk to do these things, for Rand, it will definitely not be a loss. And it will also allow the Dandelion Family to benefit, so it can be considered a win-win situation.
…
Allen was given another day off.
Because of his heroic fighting, Allen was granted two days of vacation.
When he came to the streets of the royal city again, Alan could clearly feel that the atmosphere had become even more solemn.
On the road, you might even encounter soldiers or thugs raping women.
In the past, this was always a privilege for the nobility.
The royal city is often the most orderly place, because the upper rulers certainly do not want to see the place where they live in a chaotic place.
Now the upper echelons of the Kingdom of Bolen are apparently unable to control the situation in the city.
The old king personally went up to the city wall to guard the city, which did make the situation better.
But this cannot really turn the tide and change the offense and defense.
And now the Frost Moon Kingdom army outside the city is still attacking.
Since the defenses except for the royal city were breached too quickly, the number of defenders who could enter the royal city was far less than the number of troops that continued to arrive from the Frost Moon Kingdom.
The nobles of the Frost Moon Kingdom are extremely excited now.
The opportunity to destroy the country is right in front of us. This is a legendary event that can be written into the family history.
Just as they boast about the heroic deeds of their ancestors now, their descendants in the future will be able to proudly boast that their ancestors once participated in the war to destroy the Kingdom of Bollen and made great contributions.
Therefore, many nobles of the Frost Moon Kingdom invested more manpower and supplies in this war than was expected at the meeting.
The nobles of the Frost Moon Kingdom kept rotating during the siege.
Therefore, although the casualty ratio of the besieging party is bound to be higher, for the nobles of the Frost Moon Kingdom, the overall pressure of the war is actually not that great.
Moreover, even if the enemy king personally went to fight, the morale of the nobles of the Frost Moon Kingdom did not drop. In other words, they were very eager to have the qualification to leave scars on the king, so some nobles even dressed in armor and attacked the city personally.
The reputation of a regicide may not sound very good.
But if you can cause harm to the enemy monarch on the battlefield, then your reputation will be worth boasting about.
Alan once again came into contact with the sailor in the dark alley.
"We can arrange for you to go out to sea at midnight today. Pack your things." The spy disguised as a sailor whispered.
Alan nodded to show that he was ready.
Alan soon returned to his house.
His friends also came to visit today.
This friend of his had been promoted to a formal knight because of his meritorious service in battle, and was now wearing a full set of plate armor stained with dark red blood.
"You will be promoted to a knight soon." The friend noticed that Alan was looking at his armor and comforted him.
In the eyes of Allen's friend, Allen also fought bravely.
As for why he has not been promoted to knight yet, it can only be said that he is unlucky and has not been appreciated.
Then, when Alan's friend wanted to say something more.
The door slammed open.
Accompanied by the rustling sound of metal armor, a team of fully armed knights entered the house.
They pointed their weapons at Allen's friend.
"What happened?" Alan was a little panicked. He suspected that his attempt to smuggle had been exposed.
But these people's weapons were not aimed at him, but at his friends.
"Come with us." The leading noble looked at Alan's friends.
Alan's friend's face suddenly turned pale.
He looked at the weapons shining with brilliant silver light surrounding him.
He knew there was no chance of escape for him.
As Allen was a good friend, he was naturally taken away for questioning.
It wasn't until dark that Alan found out the whole story.
His friend's plan to help a baron in the city escape by sneaking across the river has now been exposed.
It was estimated that his friend had no chance of escaping, but fortunately, the smuggling method obtained by Allen seemed to be much more reliable, so he was only questioned for a few words and then released.
But the agreed time for smuggling had passed, and just when Alan was planning to go there to see if there was still hope.
There seemed to be a brilliant light coming from afar.
It was now night.
A huge curtain seemed to be flying in the distant sky, with brilliant lights flashing on it.
The curtain is so huge.
So that Alan, who was far away in the Royal City of Bolen, could see the picture above clearly.
This was obviously another siege trick used by the enemies of the Frost Moon Kingdom.
Is this cloth used to cover the Bolen Royal City to prevent counterattacks? If that's really the case, then you're overthinking it.
But soon images began to flash on the screen.
A loud noise was also heard outside the city.
Such a loud sound, it seems to be the dubbing of these pictures?
Alan didn't know what this meant, but the scene still attracted his attention.
There was a quick reaction in the royal city.
The upper echelons of the royal city had no idea what tricks the other side was playing.
But it will definitely be disadvantageous to our side, and such a big commotion is definitely not a small trick if it cannot be destroyed as soon as possible.
There is a high probability of a serious accident.
Alan, who was originally wandering on the road, soon received a call to go to the city wall.
And on the city wall, he could see these scenes more clearly.
That seems to be the photo-taking drama that was very popular some time ago? As an apprentice knight, Allen once had a chance to watch a memorable drama with other nobles. That was the Scarlet Night. The excitement of the Scarlet Night still remains in Allen's mind.
And now the people of the Frost Moon Kingdom across the street seem to be about to play out another drama.
But what is the point of playing a play?
Alan was puzzled, he just watched intently.
The scene starts quickly.
Princess. The knight who was forced to work. Holiday villa. war. rural.
Allen knew that Rand had always had the habit of taking prisoners, and most of the people defeated by Rand in the war would be captured and sent to labor camps.
However, Allen was not very clear about what labor reform was, but he knew how other nobles dealt with prisoners.
Basically it's mining or hard labor.
They built boats by the river and worked until their waists and legs rotted and maggots appeared. When they died, another group of people would take over the work.
Enter dangerous places to mine.
Occasionally, mine collapses are not dealt with.
Therefore, slaves who mined the mines often dug up the bodies of their predecessors who had been crushed to death.
In short, the only difference between captured prisoners and corpses is that they can still breathe air for a while. These prisoners will soon die in the cruel work.
It was only in recent years that the slave market was swept up by Rand.
The nobles would cherish the captives a little more when they captured them and would not let them die too quickly.
In the past, for example, 10 years ago, apart from the rampant evil cult of Blood Nurtured, the society was generally peaceful. At that time, manpower was not too precious to the nobles, because they would grow again like crops in the ground after being cut.
If we only look at the scenes in these pictures.
This kind of work, which Rand calls "labor reform", seems to be much better than imagined? Of course, Allen would not believe these things just because of such pictures.
But it didn't stop Allen from appreciating such scenes and plots.
Standing on the city wall, Alan could already see the elite troops of the Bolen Kingdom trying to destroy the huge curtain flying in the sky.
But it was quickly blocked.
In the dark night, you can see the lights of torches on the fields outside the city.
Those were the elite troops of the Frost Moon Kingdom and the elite troops of the Borun Kingdom fighting each other.
The shouts and cries of killing were drowned out by the huge dubbing of the dramatic film.
A cool breeze blew on the city wall.
This is the second time Allen has witnessed this novel way of performing.
The content that was brought out was so wonderful that he was fascinated.
This even made Alan feel fortunate that he did not die in battle on the city wall, or that he had sneaked out too early to enjoy such a scene.
This was more wonderful than any text he had ever read and more gorgeous than any scene he had ever seen.
At this time, Allen could hear his superior's roar: "Close your eyes and don't look!"
Asking the soldiers stationed on the city walls to close their eyes was a very ridiculous order.
But the upper echelons of the Kingdom of Bolen reacted and had to issue such an order.
Fortunately, the elite troops of the Frost Moon Kingdom, who were capable of night combat, did not launch a real attack tonight.
In other words, the curtain they opened and the content performed on the curtain were the real attack of tonight.
What effect will such an attack have? No one can imagine it at the moment.
"Don't look! Don't listen!" Alan heard the officer's angry shout again.
But when Alan looked over there.
Alan could even notice that his superiors would occasionally look towards the huge screen in the distance.
Who can not be attracted by such a wonderful story?
And in this situation, do you want the soldiers and knights to close their eyes and cover their ears? This is obviously impossible.
Alan even began to believe what was in the picture, because he recognized one of the people in the picture. It was his friend who had been captured when he was fighting Rand on the border.
Alan thought that this friend had died long ago due to hard labor, but now he sees this friend on the screen.
Could it be that this friend is really living a good life as shown in the picture?
Allen didn't know.
Alan watched the end of the play as he wished.
At the end of the play.
The princess and the knight in labor camp were finally forced to separate.
But this memory will remain in the princess' heart forever.
Maybe the knights he would be working as labor reformers in the future would have the opportunity to pledge allegiance to the princess, become her vassal, and obtain a territory? Alan quickly returned to the military camp under the city.
The superior came out quickly to give a lecture.
They were asked not to discuss the content of the film.
But Allen knew better.
Everyone was impressed by the film.
Alan looked at his palms.
There are calluses on it from the friction of holding the flagpole for a long time, and blood scabs formed by the cracks on the knuckles caused by the collision of weapons with the enemy's weapons.
In the city, the Wave Palace, standing high above the royal city, was still brightly lit and extremely magnificent.
Under the watchful eyes of the officer.
Allen and his ilk haven't talked about the film.
Allen had no idea what his fellow soldiers were thinking.
But Alan was thinking to himself.
If you don't want to sneak across, surrendering to the other side seems to be a good idea.
Because he did believe it a little now, after all, he saw his friend on the screen.
When Alan looked up, he could see the same scars on his commander's body, as well as the fatigue in his commander's eyes.
It was obvious that the commander was also exhausted from the war, and he was not so confident about winning the war, which meant defending the royal city.
If they can win this time, no one will consider surrendering. Winning will bring glory and their status will be improved.
But what if we really can’t defeat him? (End of this chapter)
