Chapter 545: The Reborn (5) The future is in the north

For the descendants of the "Valiant" Lorraine, because they have a prominent ancestor, they bear a glorious honor, but with honor comes a heavy responsibility - because the authorities have reneged on the promise made to Lorraine at the time of the invasion, that is, to grant autonomy to the local rebels, most of the deceived rebels have abandoned their original leaders and followed the descendants of Lorraine again.

Because of this, both Cornigta, Godatina, and Godros regarded the descendants of Lorraine or their kindred as enemies second only to the enemy nation, and at the beginning they devoted a lot of energy to exterminate them.

With the extermination of the authorities, some of the descendants of Lorraine and their fellow tribes were killed, some surrendered, and soon the descendants of Lorraine who insisted on resisting were left with only one seedling, who cobbled together the remnants of the last loyal army and their descendants into an idealized organization, the "Guardians of Lorraine", and continued to oppose the authorities.

However, at this time, this "Guardian of Lorraine" is really a heaven and an underground compared to the army led by Lorraine in the past, and even if the authorities no longer use the regular army to exterminate them, it will become more and more difficult for them to survive.

Gadel, as the married daughter of "Valian" Lorraine, had been under the protection of her husband's family, and Gadel's husband's family had sworn allegiance to Godatina as a local nobleman after the war, so she was not regarded as a target by Godandina, and Gadel also escaped the worst blow in the early days.

But when the situation of the "Guardians of Lorraine" became more and more difficult, Gadelle resolutely left her husband's family, joined the "Guardians of Lorraine", and embarked on her father's career.

As the son of Gadel, Lorraine, the grandson of Lorraine, who has the same name as the "Valian" Lorraine, could have stayed in a safe hometown, but Lorraine, who admired his grandfather, ignored the dissuasion of others, interrupted his studies and insisted on following his mother, and resolutely embarked on the path of his grandfather, joined the "Guardian of Lorraine", and affectionately called him Little Lorraine within the organization.

However, the addition of the two did not fundamentally save the situation of the "Guardians of Lorraine", and the living space of the rebels became narrower and narrower, and in 2054, that is, 17 years after the assassination of "Valian" Lorraine, the "Guardians of Lorraine", who were mainly active in the territory of Southern Lorraine, were devastated by the Datina army.

In this battle, the 19-year-old little Lorraine personally fought on the front line, but was seriously injured, even if he was snatched off the front line and carried on the carriage to be transported away urgently, Jiadel also fed him a lot of medicine, but failed to save the life of the little Lorraine, which made the "heroic" Lorraine descend into the body of the little Lorraine.

That battle almost completely defeated the "Guardians of Lorraine", and the last son of "Lorraine the Brave" who was still rebelling died on the spot, and Gadel inherited the dying organization of "Guardians of Lorraine", and through a series of resolute means, he curbed the disintegration of the organization and barely allowed the organization to continue.

However, after the devastating blow of the 2054 campaign, the "Guardians of Lorraine" can only be regarded as a small-scale criminal organization no different from ordinary bandits, and cannot be a rebel army with a base as in the past, which poses a major threat to the rule of the authorities, and Godatina no longer uses regular troops to specifically exterminate the "Guardians of Lorraine", perhaps in Goditina's view, the "Guardians of Lorraine" are no longer a threat.

Perhaps the only thing that made the organization happy during this difficult time was that Lorraine Jr. woke up, forgetting some things due to brain damage, but he became smarter, and many members said that Lorraine Jr. was becoming more and more like his grandfather, and Gadale was relieved to believe that Lorraine had finally grown up after that battle.

After recovering from his wounds, Lorraine decided to disguise himself as a merchant and go to various places to inspect the local situation, and persuaded Gadel to agree to the idea.

Little Lorraine spent six years inspecting the northern and southern Lorraines, and by the way, wandering further north to Cornigta, where he met a few Boris from the far west.

When he returned to the cottage of the "Guardian of Lorraine", he found that the spirit of the entire organization of the "Guardian of Lorraine" was even lower than before, so Xiao Lorraine held a meeting of cadres, one is to report what he has seen and heard in the past six years, the second is to establish the direction of the organization, and the third is to revitalize the spirit of the organization.

"If I had to evaluate the current guardian in one sentence, it would be 'drunken life and dream of death', the ideal of liberating Lorraine? What about the legacy of 'Valiant Lorraine'?

Little Lorraine came up with this attitude, which caused some people to be dissatisfied, an old man with white hair and a big belly drank a pot of wine, and said drunkly: "The children don't know how to scheming, the old man has followed Lorraine to start a family, and he has been going south and north for so many years, even if he falls to this point, he still follows your family, what qualifications do you have to criticize the old man!"

The old man spat as he spoke, his flabby muscles trembling with the fierce tone, and when he finished speaking, the old man drank another pot of wine and hiccuped defiantly.

The old man, who relied on his own qualifications, was the most lax and exaggerated among the cadres who participated in the meeting, and although the behavior of the others did not reach such a point, they were also energetic and slow, and they had an indifferent or even unwilling attitude towards the convening of the meeting.

Little Lorraine recognized this old man, he used to be a servant in his previous life, indeed as he said, since the beginning of Lorraine's army, he has followed him to fight in the north and south, although he has not been able to get a good promotion because he is not a nobleman, but before he was assassinated in his previous life, this old man was already a famous general in the army.

And he is also a representative of most of the cadres present at the meeting, Jiadel is really dedicated to the organization, but he is just a pastemaker, under the hard work of Jiadel, he can't see that the "Guardian of Lorraine" has any possibility of success and future, so more and more people have run away over the years, and most of the new recruits are fleeing for their lives.

As for these cadres who remained, they were all gray-haired, because they were all old subordinates who followed Lorraine in the first place, perhaps most of them were insignificant grassroots officers at that time, but in the years when their ideals were at a low ebb, only this group of people was left with the organization that they still supported.

Of course, they also knew that the organization had no future, and the slogans propagated by Lorraine the Valiant had become an unrealistic dream, and now the only thing that supported them was loyalty to Lorraine the Hero, allowing them to continue to maintain this dismal organization.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lorraine's attitude couldn't help but slow down his attitude, and tried to say to them in a kind tone: "I know that although General Jiadel is very hardworking, the situation of the organization is still getting worse day by day, and there is no way out for a long time, so the cadres can stay, and they are already worthy of me, my grandfather, Lorraine." ”

With that, little Lorraine bowed to them. After so many years, little Lorraine has adjusted his mentality, and he is no longer the "heroic" Lorraine who stirred up the storm, but he is still following the footsteps of his grandfather "Hero" Lorraine, not to mention that this identity has to be hidden most of the time, so as not to be questioned and investigated by officers and soldiers.

Although Gadel was criticized by Little Lorraine in the conversation, seeing Little Lorraine's performance, Gadel felt that his father, who had been dead for decades, had reappeared in his son, and couldn't help but have some tears.

And everyone saw that little Lorraine was soft, and they also cheered up a little, no matter what, they can hold on until now, isn't it just to follow the "heroic" Lorraine?

"The reason why you are depressed is because you have lost your goal, you feel that you have no direction, and you can't succeed, but from now on, you don't have to act like this, because I have found a way out of the organization!"

Sure enough, when Xiao Lorraine said this, the veteran led by him suddenly laughed: "The little children are talking nonsense." It was a mockery, but at least they started listening.

"Godatina says that Lorraine's delusions have become completely empty and that we are going to lose, and that Godroth has said the same, and that Konigta has said the same, and it seems to me that most of you, although still resisting in action, have already agreed with them in your mind. ”

The veteran sneered: "In this situation, it's good to be able to maintain your grandfather's seedlings, is it possible that you can come back to life?"

"If you want me to say, yes, not now, but certainly in the not-too-distant future," Lorraine said eloquently, making everyone turn their attention to him, and although these eyes were full of distrust and suspicion, it was undoubtedly a good start.

"Do you know what came from Konigta a few years ago? A few years ago in the far west, a war of terrible proportions broke out, involving 14 countries. ”

"Haven't you heard that the price of Bourbon seafood has been rising in recent years, isn't it because of that war?" someone responded.

"And this war is our chance, and you may wonder why the war on the Bourbon Sea affects our Cornigta, because there is one country that has a very close relationship with the Bourbon Sea, and that is the Cornigta in the north!"

"Since Cornigta and Goditina divided our Lorraine, the level of tyranny is no different from that of Godros's rule, but we must know that Goldigta enjoyed the profits of the Bourbon sea trade, but he was so lavish and obscene that he exploited the land in the same way as Goldtitina. ”

"What does this mean? It means that once Bourbon's maritime trade is cut off, Cornigta's existing balance of payments will be in serious trouble, and then he will increase the exploitation of Lorraine, and then our opportunity has come!"

"Why did my uncle fail to lead an army against Godatina, because the Second Kandolep War had been fought for twenty or thirty years, and since the two rulers had similar cruelty, why should they continue to resist? ”

"But now it's different, if Cornigta has problems because of the Bourbon maritime trade, his whole country will have problems, then the southern Lorraine, which he has conquered not long ago, will become a powder keg, and at this time, this is our chance, our chance is not in Godatina, but in Konigta!"

This is the conclusion reached by Xiao Lorraine in the past six years, as Xiao Lorraine explained the situation and his own analysis, the eyes of most of the generals present became brighter and brighter, and they saw the way out of the organization.

"We have lived in South Lorraine for so many years, and we have rushed to the north like this, is it possible?" but one of the generals asked as he did not want to leave the familiar place.

It was not Xiao Lorraine who answered the general's question, but a veteran who had been at odds with Xiao Lorraine before: "Could it be that after a few decades of rest, I will become a comfortable pig and dog?

After that, the veteran said solemnly to Little Lorraine: "Let it go, go to North Lorraine to find the last chance, the old man will fully support you!"
