Chapter 144: The King's Speech

Lin Han followed the general to the council hall in the depths of the palace, pushed open the door, and Lin Han saw King Freel III of the Luo Kingdom. At this time, Freer III changed the old age and decadence of the court during the day, and his face was full of smiles.

There were still more than a dozen ministers sitting in the council hall, who were the backbone of the royalist faction, and among them there were even a few ministers of the humerus of the Great Prince's faction, but they were talking and laughing with a smile on their faces at this time.

When the monarch and ministers saw Lin Han come in, all the ministers knelt down on one knee to salute Lin Han, and Lin Han also returned a mage salute. And Freir III just stood up and motioned and continued to sit down.

Ordinary people, even the emperor of a country, have to salute when he sees a strong man with the title of god, of course, it is a simplified etiquette, and there is no need to kneel on one knee. But there is one king who is special, and he doesn't need to kneel when he sees any strong man with the title of god, he only needs to make a gesture, and that is the king of the Roman kingdom. As the royal family that once ruled the entire Terran race, the Roman royal family was extremely noble, and they did a lot for the Terran race. Therefore, the Continental Council issued a special decree that any powerful person must have respect for the king of the Roman kingdom and not embarrass the king of the Roman kingdom without reason.

Freir III smiled and said to Lin Han:

"Honored God of Light, I don't know what happened to His Majesty?"

"I was entrusted by the deceased to help His Majesty put down the rebellion!"

"Counterinsurgency?"

Hearing Lin Han's words, Freer III's face changed slightly, and after thinking for a while, he said, "I don't know where His Majesty heard the news that someone had rebelled?" Who is your deceased? ”

Lin Han pointed in the direction of the ruined mansion, and then pointed to the top of Freer III's head. Freire III thought about it for a moment and understood it for a moment, then stood up and saluted Lin Han, and then said:

"Thank you for your kindness!"

The ministers below were all thinking about Freil III, looking at Freel III with dismay, unexpectedly that there were elders in the royal family who were still old with the God of Light, and at the same time they were more loyal to Freel III.

Just when everyone was thinking about it, a shout of killing reached the palace, and everyone looked up in the direction of the palace gate. There was no panic on Freil's face, and a smug smile appeared on his face, everything was in control!

Freire III said to the ministers below with a murderous face:

"The traitor has come, follow me to kill the traitor!"

Saying that, he saluted Lin Han and asked Lin Han to go with him, Lin Han was originally going to help Freer III put down the rebellion, so he didn't shirk, and followed Freer III half a step behind him to the palace gate.

Everyone Xu Xing had arrived at the gate of the palace soon, and when they climbed the palace wall and saw the scene outside the palace, Lin Han also took a breath of cool air. The soldiers outside the walls of this palace are densely packed, not to mention 50,000 people, and at a glance they are like guns and armor like scales.

Freir III pushed away the guards who were guarding him and walked to the front, and the soldiers outside the palace were immediately confused when they saw Freer III, and some even raised their longbows and aimed at him. You must know that the subordinates of the eldest prince said that the first soldier to step on the palace wall will be rewarded with 100,000 coins and made a baron, and the person who kills the king will be rewarded with a reward of 100,000 coins and made a marquis. This made the soldiers at the bottom who were willing to die for a few hundred gold coins suddenly red-eyed and wanted to snatch this reward.

Freire III's bodyguards sensed the movement of the soldiers below and hurriedly blocked in front of him, propping up their vindictive shields. These guards are all shield warriors specially trained by the royal family, and their attack power is almost zero, but their defense is extremely strong, and the challenge of skipping the level is easy.

Freire III, on the other hand, pushed away the two guards in front of him, exposed himself to the enemy's arrows, and shouted:

"Do you know who I am? I am the current king of the Kingdom of Rome, this great country! You are being bewitched by traitors today and want to kill me and take over this palace behind me! ”

"I don't know what the traitor has done you, but I can guess that it's nothing more than gold and knighthood. But I can give you all this, and I speak more effectively than he does, for I am the king of this great country! And he's just a traitor! ”

"Brave soldiers, why did your parents send you to serve as soldiers in the first place?"

The soldiers below were buzzing with each other. When the eldest prince saw Freer III coming out, he hurriedly ordered his subordinates to start attacking, and the generals of those rebels received the military order and hurriedly wanted to control these soldiers, but they were inexplicably controlled by some soldiers and could not pass the military order.

At the same time, the officers on the palace wall received the order from above and hurriedly passed the order to the soldiers.

Freir III turned his head to look at the soldiers on the palace wall, and asked in a passionate voice:

"Brave soldiers, tell me, why are you soldiers?"

"To protect our country from aggression! In order to protect our parents, wives and daughters from being harmed by foreign enemies! ”

"Good! Well said! ”

Freer III looked at the soldiers on the palace wall with a smile on his face, "To be a soldier is to protect those who love us and those we love!" ”

Then Freer III looked at the soldiers under the palace walls and asked in a loud voice:

"What about you? What are you for? To help the traitors mutilate our great country? Harm your friends and relatives? ”

The soldiers below were in a state of confusion, and they had followed the commander's command to enter the city of Jerusalem. I thought it was a mission, but I didn't think about rebelling, but when they came to the palace wall, they knew that they were going to rebel, and it was too late to quit. Now hearing the king's speech, they could not help but start to blame themselves. During the reign of Frere III for more than ten years, the economic development of the Roman Kingdom was very good, the people's lives improved a lot, and he hated corruption [***], killed many corrupt officials, and won the hearts of the people.

The first factor in the success or failure of a war is the morale of the army, and if the morale of the army is not aligned, most of them have already lost. Now many of those rebels have begun to waver, and some have even thrown down their weapons to surrender. People like to conform to the herd, especially when they encounter big problems, and the herd mentality can easily change people's thoughts and decisions. With the example of surrender, the people they know or know will follow suit and lay down their arms and surrender.

Although some of the Overseers' judges whipped the soldiers in the rebels, and even some of them drew their swords to kill those who surrendered, they still couldn't stop the surrender. The eldest prince and his subordinates couldn't help but feel cold when they watched his soldiers fall in groups. However, after a stick of incense, only 10,000 die-hard soldiers were still resisting stubbornly in the rebels, and the rest of the soldiers had already laid down their arms and surrendered.

Freir III looked at the chaotic rebels under the palace walls, and couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in his heart. I can't help but start to think about silver, and the history books of later generations will write like this:

In the year 2956 of the continental calendar, there was a rebellion in the great Roman kingdom, and His Majesty Freer III the wise gave a speech in front of the rebels, and the rebels were inspired by it to surrender one after another, and the rebellion was resolved bloodlessly, known as the king's speech!
