Chapter 69: The Truth Society's Dilemma
He was annoyed that Amilenor's councillors had taken over the Insurgency in the Academy of Magic without him, and had planned to kill the Dean and all the House leaders except Amilenor. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ So when the parliamentarians wanted him to step up and take charge of the situation, he did not hesitate to refuse their request.
"Now that you have taken over all the rebels, take command of the battle yourself! What can I do without the truth? Didn't you complete an uprising? I'm tired and want to go back to my dorm to rest - hopefully my dorm is still in good condition! β
After falling through the words, Amilaino left the Great Hall in anger as the crowd watched in amazement.
Although the councillors and group leaders organized the uprising without authorization, it is an unchangeable fact that the president of the Truth Society is Amireno. People are used to being led by him, and without him, they don't know what to do next.
The 12 councillors who had founded the Truth Society with Amileno knew that he was angry at his subordinates for their unauthorized actions, and quickly led someone to chase him up, apologizing to him as they followed him in the direction of the faculty dormitory. But Amelano walked on as if he hadn't heard anything.
When he returned to the dormitory, he shut everyone out and went back to his bedroom to lie on the bed with his eyes closed.
A bunch of idiots!
Amileino rolled over and exhaled a cloudy breath from her nostrils.
The time has not come! The time has not come! How many times have I spoken to them! The time has not yet come!
What can it be like to get a momentary victory? What about a dozen or dozens of victories? Our purpose is to build the nation! It's not a vigorous rebellion and then endlessly surrounded and suppressed by the enemy!
Their eyes can only see the tip of their nose! You can't even see a mosquito on the tip of your nose!
I should have been blinding the man who shared the letter with those guys! Poke your eyes blind! I actually believed their nonsense and established what a bullshit truth society!
Shit! It's all shit!
I've been paying for a bunch of shit all these years! I've done so many things that go against my principles!
As Amileno lay in the room venting his emotions, everyone outside the door looked at each other, not knowing what to do. They had been discussing outside the door for a long time, and they didn't know how to get Amelino out.
As it darkens, a rebel soldier who has broken through from Saktin appears outside the main entrance of the Academy of Magic, his crotch soaking six crossbow arrows and a bow on his hip, his horse's fur soaked with sweat. As soon as he arrived at the Academy of Magic, he jumped off his horse and shouted to the people inside.
"Who's the Supreme Commander here!?"
When the rebels guarding the gate saw that it was their own, they reported the name of the group leader who had first commanded the force. The man then asked where the group leader was, and the rebels guarding the gate did not know where he was, so they put him in the magic academy and asked him to inquire on his own.
The team leader who insisted on refusing to relinquish command had already been shot by the councillor with a magic arrow, and the man naturally couldn't find him. After inquiring about several places, the man came to the General Assembly Hall. The keeper of the Great Hall told the man that the rioters at the Academy of Magic had now been taken over by the headquarters of the Truth Society.
The man asked the people in the Great Hall, "Where are the people at the headquarters of the Society of Truth?" The people in the Assembly Hall did not know where they had gone, so they could only answer truthfully that they did not know.
The man had no choice but to wait in the Great Hall. When it was completely dark, the crowd, who had nothing to do with Amileino, returned to the Great Hall. Immediately upon seeing them, the man reported to them the state of battle in the city of Saktin.
The Insurgents' actions were smooth at first, and the captain of the Operational Brigade led the troops who remained in the city all the way to the direction of the First District, intending to directly capture the castle of the Cornate family. However, when they reached the walls outside the Third District, they found that they were surrounded by Bright's army.
The Bright army ambushed a large number of crossbowmen on the rooftops of the city gates, and the rebels were killed and wounded by a rain of arrows as soon as they reached the city gates. With closed gates ahead, pursuing infantry in the rear, and crossbowmen in ambush overhead, the rebels seemed to be in a desperate situation.
However, instead of taking the opportunity to wipe out the rebels, the Bright Army withdrew the pursuing infantry and opened a hole in the rear. Then the Bright army opened the gates of the city, and a force fought out from the front, and the rebels had to retreat.
As they retreated to the walls of the Fourth Ward, they were hit by a rain of arrows. However, this time there were only two or three hundred crossbowmen in ambush on the roof, and the rebels retreated to the fifth district with a rain of arrows.
Before the rebels could breathe, they were attacked by the Ryding Wizard. These Letin mages stood on the walls outside the Fourth Sector, casting their attack skills at the rioters outside the gates. The rebels tried to return fire with their bows, but failed to hurt any of the Ryding mages.
Taking advantage of the Rioters' focus on the Ryding Magicians, the Bright Army launched a surprise attack on them, scattering the Rioters. The commander of the insurgents was killed in this wave of raids, and in the absence of their commanders, the insurgents had to fight on their own and disperse in different directions.
After that, the task of the Bright Army was much easier. All they had to do was to search for the scattered rebels in the city as a small team, killing or capturing them. In order to prevent the rebels from putting up a stubborn resistance and causing unnecessary losses to the Bright army after being cornered, Moritin had all the walls outside the third district open the gates, and did not block the city gates, and only deployed troops outside the city gates to intercept and kill the rebels.
After breaking through the siege, one of the group leaders felt that the uprising would definitely fail if it went on like this, so he selected ten people and tried his best to protect them from the siege.
When they broke out of Saktin, there were only nine people left with the group leader, four of whom were the ones who had been selected to break out. The four men shot and killed one of the Bright's cavalrymen, grabbed the horse, and then covered one of them to break through in the direction of the Academy of Magic, so that he could inform the people there about the battle in Saktin.
The deputies were shocked to learn of the battle in Sakin City, and immediately took the messenger back to Amilenor's quarters. The door to Amileno's dormitory was unlocked, and although he accepted a lot of bribes for various reasons, the money eventually became the funds for the activities of the Truth Society, and he was not greedy for a hundred cents.
After hearing the sound of the door breaking in, Amilino sat up from the bed with a "take-off", his face contorted with anger. He didn't even put on his shoes when he got off the ground, and kicked the door open, trying to scold the intruder.
"You're justβ"
Before he could finish the second half of his sentence, the intruders interrupted him with serious expressions.
"President! There's an accident over there in Sackin! β
They brought the messenger to Amileno and told him to tell him about the battle in Saktin. After Amileno listened to the man's words, his nose was crooked, and he scolded the next half of the sentence without thinking about it.
"You're just a piece of shit in the **!"
He groped in the drawing-room, walked briskly to the teapot on the cupboard, took a teacup from its side, and held it high, but did not fall. He stomped his foot angrily, put the teacup back in its place, and pointed at everyone's noses and cursed.
"You're not as smart as my boogers! A bunch of idiots with no brains! β
Everyone knew that they were wrong, so they could only choose to endure Amileno's insults. After Amilano scolded a few words, he didn't know what to scold, so he could only stomp his foot angrily a few times.
"Failure! Fail!! β
He paced back and forth in the living room barefoot, the anxiety in his heart overflowing.
"How can you be in Shackin City...... How can you get past me and revolt without permission! Is there really trust between us?! Is trust really there?! β
"What am I as president?! A liaison? A money-making tool? Or is it a signboard that can only be seen but not used?! In your hearts, I am not even as good as a lover of the masses! Not even a popular lover! β
He slapped his palm on the table in the living room with all his might, and in the next second, he covered the hand that had fallen on the table with a painful face, and let out a screaming moan.
"Ahh Damn it!!! β
His hands waved up and down in front of him meaninglessly, as if he were chopping something. If his hands could really be used as knives, he would definitely cut all these idiots in front of him into meat sauce.
Amireno looked very funny now, but the crowd couldn't laugh at all. There is no doubt that if even Amilino had not had the means to turn the tables, the uprising would have ended in failure.
Some of them are already planning for the future. Some people are ready to kill themselves in order not to disturb their families, while others are thinking of fleeing abroad for refuge. However, none of them chose to surrender, and with their knowledge of the Cornate family, anyone who raised the flag against the Cornate family would end up miserable.
Fortunately, Amilaino does have a back-up move. After the pain in his palm subsided, he shook the arm vigorously, then carried it behind his back, frowning in thought. When everyone saw that Amileno was quiet, they tensed their nerves, and even their breathing became cautious, for fear of interrupting the president's train of thought.
Five minutes later, Amilaino had completely calmed down. He turned his gaze to a councillor who was a mentor and spoke to him in a deep voice.
"You set out now, to the city of Saktin. You visit the Offitt family in my name first, and then the Nanice family in my name. If they ask you about your intentions, you tell them that the weapons we bought from them last time were of good quality, and that we will buy them if we have the chance. You can't say a word to them about anything else, they will never embarrass you, and after explaining your intentions, you can just leave. After completing the mission, you stay in Saktin, find a stronghold to hide, and don't come back. β
The weapons and equipment of the Truth Society were purchased from the Offet family and the Namix family at a very low price. Only Amileno knew about it, not even the 12 people who had founded the Truth Society with him.
The Offet family and the Namimax family sold weapons to Amilaino at a very low price, naturally harboring selfish motives. The two families have always wanted to break free from the bondage of the Konnat family, so they will give support to anyone who can raise a counter-flag against Konnat. Even if these people fail to overthrow the Konnat family, they can cause them some problems.
When Amileno came into contact with these two families, he had already revealed his identity as the president of the Truth Society. Amilino is also from a large family, and the situation of the Cutis family in Saktin City is similar to these two families, except that the Kidis family is not as powerful as these two families, and has not yet bred too many ambitions. Even so, the Cutis family desperately wanted the Kollnate family to fall.
Amileno has figured out the psychology of the Offitt family and the Namix family, and wants to pull the two families into the chariot of the Truth Society. His choice proved to be the right one, and the two families, upon learning of Amilenor's intention to overthrow the Cornate family, not only sold regular army-sized weapons and equipment to the Truth Society at a very low price, but also had the best of the younger generation join the Truth Society, with Daisy being one of them.
The councillor nodded hurriedly, then left the dormitory as fast as he could. After this, Amileno asked everyone to gather their troops as quickly as possible, blocking all exits from the Academy of Magic, and not letting anyone leave.
After giving an account of these things, Amileno had his horse prepared for him, and then drove to the city of Saktin overnight. Upon arriving in Saktin, he immediately approached a Leytin magician who was on duty, and told him his identity and the time of the attack on the Academy of Magic, telling him to report the incident to Moridin immediately.
Moridin knew about Amilaino as a person, so he summoned him that night. He asked Amelano in detail about the current situation of the Academy of Magic, and Amileno said that the director of the Academy of Magic had been killed, but the rebels had been defeated, but there were still an unknown number of rebels hiding in the dormitory of the Academy of Magic. Because it was getting late, he did not dare to act rashly, so he could only come to seek Moritin's instructions. (To be continued.) )
