Chapter 312: Watching the excitement is not afraid of big things
Don't forget that the New World is a place of strict social hierarchy, and there is a natural gap between the commoners and the nobility, and this view has been imperceptibly developed over a long period of time into the consensus and rules of the entire human society, and even of all intelligent races.
If a group of high-ranking people are tried in public in a merciless and brutal manner, and executed by capital punishment, it is likely to provoke fierce opposition, and even among Luo Zhengdao's die-hard supporters, such a deliberate move will cause a lot of chaos, which is naturally not conducive to internal unity and the maintenance of the ruling order.
"Well, follow my orders, I have my own considerations about this matter, you go down!"
Since Luo Zhengdao said this, Zola Hegel couldn't argue with him anymore, so he had to bow and retreat. When the boatswain closed the door, Vina Dubov, who had remained silent beside her, looked at Luo Zhengdao thoughtfully, and said softly:
"Will, aren't you afraid of being accused of being a tyrant?"
With his own life hanging under the blade of the curse of the Aragami, does Luo Zhengdao, who feels that he is in danger, care about the reputation of the mere family? Although he did not clearly show this indifferent attitude of not dying, he was still ruthless under his mouth, and said extremely harshly:
"Tyrant? Compared to me, the goblin is much worse than the murderous Cheng dΓΉ! If I were a tyrant, I would definitely use the most cruel punishment to make them want to die, you scum scum! β
In the old world, the public intellectuals who were active in various media used to satirize others and stimulate the nerves of the general public with a sentence called "public opinion carnival", this subtext full of malice and contempt is to say that you ignorant Diao people have won again, don't think that this is a dish to cook, this is the majority of you dicks. Politics, this is a complete dictatorship, in short, it is not a good thing. If the people ask rhetorically, is it only by following your well-known meaning that the people can be regarded as boiling oil, and if you don't do what you say, it will not be considered to be boiling? Whose dish is this? Brother Tai, you also deserve the surname Zhao? Today's weather, hahahaha......
The eyes of the masses of the people are clear, and the encroachment and deception can only work for a while, and after a long time of playing the trick, it will inevitably be revealed in its original form after all, and no matter how well the greedy and bloodthirsty jackal is disguised, it will not be able to become an old scalper.
No ruler in this world has ever been so brain-dead as to sharply oppose himself to the will of the people, even the monarch of the slavery era was a powerful figure who claimed to inherit the mandate of heaven and showed compassion for all the people, and relied on the military to seize power and came to power, and he had to whitewash himself as the leader and vanguard of the broad masses of the people. Idiots like who are you talking for, it is estimated that it can only be used to prove that the marriage of close relatives is indeed a great danger to the intelligence of offspring, and relying on nepotism to get on top can really kill people!
"Hang them! Hang these traitors! Kill them! Traitor! β
The crowd of black and oppressive people was crowded together, and the noise echoed over the square, shaking Luo Zhengdao's ears for a while, and he waved his hand impatiently. Zola Hegel immediately understood, and made a few gestures to the audience, and in an instant, the temporarily erected gallows pedals were removed, and the ugly former parliamentarians were hung up one by one. If it weren't for these fools who had a secret connection with the goblins who jumped out impatiently to touch the head, Luo Zhengdao was originally going to leave them for a while longer to lure the snake out of the hole, but now it seems that he overestimated the endurance and strength of these opponents, just with their strength in tossing and turning around, not only did they not succeed enough, but they couldn't even do the work of defeat, a group of wrecks!
In the cheers of the people, these idiot parliamentarians who spoke for the goblins and incited public opinion were hanged, and the troublesome things that Luo Zhengdao needed to deal with had just begun.
Now the goblins have made it clear that the carriages and horses are threatening Luo Zhengdao, and the matter has reached the step of using the goblin army to slaughter human slaves.
You know, the Great Powers are eyeing the Lord, and although they are sparing no effort to support the restoration of the exiled aristocracy of the human race, if these big tigers feel that the reduction of the human population and the spurning of the goblins by the gods is a godsend, then the humans and the goblins will become the two unlucky protagonists in the fable of the snipe and the clam competing for the fisherman's profit
"Your Highness, didn't you just give up the attack on Grand Canal City a few days ago? Why do you want to call back again? β
A meeting of several important subordinates was convened in the office, Luo Zhengdao had no intention of explaining his psychological motives, he raised his eyebrows, and said coldly:
"This is an order, not to consult with you, let's carry it out!"
The others watched Brando Scarlet with amusement, but the commander himself pretended not to know, and bowed and said:
"Yes, Your Highness. Your wish is my mission. β
Politics is actually nothing complicated, to put it bluntly, it is nothing more than a dirty business of sharing spoils and compromises, only what has been grabbed in your hand, that belongs to you, if you are about to face a bad situation of chicken and egg, it is not impossible to take a step back for the time being. When it comes to this layer of truth, Luo Zhengdao is the same as Spiegel in his heart, but he also feels unhappy, knowing that there must be a reason for the goblin's blatant threat, and he doesn't want to follow the path drawn by the opponent. The so-called everything that the enemy supports, we have to oppose, since the goblins are trying to hold peace talks, Luo Zhengdao naturally will not let them get their way, if you want to negotiate, it's no problem, until you can't stand it, just take the initiative to come to me to talk.
The Second Empire of Goblins who crawled out of the ravine was not the master of the waste wood that ate the food of their ancestors, and as soon as the cannon of the human fleet here rang out, they immediately realized that their plan to force the palace was messed up. For the rude behavior of the human side to be so faceless and repeatedly slap in the face, the goblin really can't bear it anymore.
With a kick over the bookcase, the furious goblin emperor gave an order, and the special assassination unit under the name of the military department that had not been fully trained and run-in was sent out to carry out the mission.
After learning that Will Needham was besieging Grand Canal City and Dongning again, he thought that as long as he was close to the battlefield, he would give the assassins a chance to assassinate him.
There is no impermeable fence wall in the sky, and the abnormal movements of the goblin military department have aroused the vigilance of the Yaling Empire's intelligence network at the first time, and they can't care if they want to. You know, the special assassination force formed by the goblins showed the news from the beginning, and then it was included in the key monitoring list of the intelligence agencies of the great powers, not to mention anything else, just the name of this unit knew that it was used to decapitate the enemy country or something, how could it be careless? If Yaling and the elves don't pay close attention to the goblins' small movements, they just can't think of it one day, and send assassins to assassinate the Queen of Yaling or the elven commander, not to mention whether the action is successful or not, and only take on the heavy responsibility of negligence afterwards, these guys must not be forced to commit collective suicide to thank the countrymen!
The courtyard is quiet and deep, with its lush evergreen trees and colorful flowers, and a carrier pigeon lands on the white stone balcony, and soon the sound of hurried footsteps sounds, and the small three-story building is suddenly busy.
"Your Excellency, the latest information from ahead."
The name of the military intelligence department of the Yaling Empire is not large, and the style of acting is relatively low-key, but the efficiency is not low. After receiving an urgent secret letter sent back by the intelligence station at the front as quickly as possible, the director of Yaling inserted a water-dipped quill into the inkwell, and after a quick browsing, he thought for a long time and said:
"Well, is the news true?"
"Yes, we double-checked it and the information is accurate."
Recall that Her Majesty the Queen xiΓ about a certain important generation. The corners of the intelligence director's mouth twitched, and he nodded and said:
"Relay the information to the Byrne Overseers, we can't afford to lose this pawn."
"Yes, Your Excellency."
After a few days, Luo Zhengdao, who was preparing to set off with the second fleet, received this warning message from Yaling, and he smiled at Sariel Byrne, looking very calm and calm on the surface.
Seeing too many of the all-encompassing conspiracy methods of the old world, and the mode of thinking that grew out of the deep cultural circle of power and scheming in China, how could this trick played by the goblins exceed Luo Zhengdao's expectations? He was always ready to fight all kinds of threats to his life to the end, and if he hadn't even realized this, he wouldn't know where he would have died on the street corner when he first crossed over.
"Please convey your thanks to Her Majesty the Queen on my behalf."
Thanking him politely, he said goodbye to the Yaling Messenger, and turned around before Luo Zhengdao could speak, Brando Scarlet Yan couldn't help but say:
"Your Highness, do you want to retreat? Soon we will be able to capture the Grand Canal City, and it would be a shame to give up now. β
Hearing the sound, Luo Zhengdao shook his finger and said:
"Who said we were going to retreat? Brando, you're here to stall for time, I don't want to break through the target so quickly, we're not here to occupy a ruin. β
Long before the last retreat from Grand Canal City, the pirates followed Luo Zhengdao's instructions and carried out a systematic campaign of destruction of the occupied cities and defenses, which was highly organized and time-consuming, often taking years to fully restore the original appearance. Now, after only a few months, the pirate fleet has returned, and the crumbling defenses of Grand Canal City are no longer able to withstand the onslaught of the attackers. What can be known is that Luo Zhengdao will not treat the city that he has already occupied once as a sweet tooth, there is nothing worthy of his attention here, but there is a bigger plan that can be realized by attacking the Grand Canal City.
Siege point reinforcement! This is a good way for the side with relatively strong field combat capability and slightly weaker offensive ability to calculate the opponent.
Compared to the Second Goblin Empire, whose power is almost infinite, Luo Zhengdao has to think twice before launching an offensive every time, calculating the balance of forces between the two sides, and will only do it when he is sure that he is sure, and the fault is not that the enemy takes the initiative to hit the door, this rule will never be changed. Although in the eyes of those who don't know the inside story, His Royal Highness the regent often performs some big reversal scenes where the weak defeat the strong, that's because he didn't have the capital to be strong, if he can use ten times more than the goblin to crush the opponent, Luo Zhengdao is too lazy to dig out the hollow mind to put a trap on the goblin, how simple it is to rely on his strength to push all the way through!
