Chapter 1153: The City of Versailles Surrenders
"What, Versailles, has been seized by the Cathars?"
"How is this possible?"
After receiving the news of Versailles, Wang Xu's first reaction was disbelief.
He knew the situation of the cathars very well, that is, a motley army without a leader, and how they armed themselves to seize the power of the city of Versailles.
Next, after hearing that Marven, the youngest son of the city lord of Cosman, used the family's secret passage to release the Anderhill sacrifice and plan this seizure of power, Wang Xu understood a little what was going on.
A strong fortress, always breached from within.
If this is a conspiracy, with the intention of calculating or not, coupled with the cooperation of the inner ghosts, it is reasonable that the cathars can seize power.
Overall, Wang Xu was very happy.
Because the ultimate beneficiary of this seizure of power is not the chief priest of Anderhill, let alone the mastermind Marven, but the commander who is responsible for leading the expeditionary corps and capturing the Colloma region.
In his previous thoughts, the capture of Versailles would cost at least two or three percent of the soldiers.
Now, by leading Albuquerque to rebellion, by accepting Albert's allegiance, and by the Cathar's seizure of power by the city guards and the surrender of Versailles, he was able to quell the rebellion in the Coroma region without bloodshed, a credit that no one can erase.
Of course, such a counterinsurgency is not perfect.
It would have been more perfect if Marven had been smarter and described his plan as an expeditionary force's co-optation, and that he was just the executor of the plan.
In this regard, Wang Xu is confident that he will convince Marven.
Because what he needed was simple, the reason why he planned this coup d'état was undoubtedly to see the strength of the expeditionary force and hope to preserve the Cosman family.
Give what you need to those who need it, Wang Xu is very good at doing this kind of business, and Marven can't refuse him at all.
Eventually, they will take what they need and get what they both want.
"Let the cathars lay down their arms, accept our reorganization, and take over the city of Versailles. By the way, I'm going to meet Priest Underhill and the little guy named Marvin. ”
Wang Xu agreed to Anderhill's request for surrender, but he was more interested in the man named Marven.
At the age of twenty, he planned this coup d'état and successfully seized power in the city of Versailles.
Again, an armed coup d'état in Versailles, which could only be carried out under his leadership, is crucial.
He also needs to communicate with Marven and make an exchange of interests to end his trip to Croma.
"How's it going?"
"The City Guard has been disarmed and imprisoned in the City Guard garrison, and because of the appeasement of the Anderhill Sacrifice, they are in a good mood at the moment, although there is some resistance but no harm.
In addition, the cathars have laid down their arms and accepted our care, most of them are parishioners, who are bent on obeying the arrangements of the temple and do not resist the surrender to us, and the situation of the cathars is stable. ”
Walking in the city of Versailles, Wang Xu, with the support of the army, looked at this important military town.
The layout of the city of Versailles is in the shape of a field, with intricate streets and a permanent population of more than 20 million, when Wang Xu saw the hostile gaze of these people, he suddenly felt that he was still a little immature in the idea of attacking the city of Versailles.
If it hadn't been for this coup d'état, he would have led his army to forcibly attack the city of Versailles, and the casualties would have been higher than he thought.
Of course, you can definitely beat it down.
He led a third-order elite legion, such a powerful legion is not something that ordinary people can control, but casualties are definitely a big problem.
Fortunately, this concern no longer exists, and whether these ordinary citizens want to or not, when those in power decide to surrender, they will not be swayed by their will.
In the same way, public opinion is the most swayable thing.
Don't look at these people with hatred in his eyes, Wang Xu can guarantee that as long as it takes 10,000 years, these people will forget all this and become obedient people of the alliance.
This is not a joke, back then, the giant elephant clan resisted fiercely compared to the totem clan, and in the end, there was not one in ten of the entire race, and the basic death that could go to the battlefield was gone.
Now, the Giant Elephant Clan has not yet become a member of the Xiuzhen Alliance, and everyone is proud to be a member of the Xiuzhen Alliance.
Counting up, it has only been tens of thousands of years since the surrender of the Giant Elephant Clan, and the changes before and after can be a little bit like that.
So this kind of thing of national hatred, to put it bluntly, is like that, people are always easy to forget, Wang Xu has seen too much of this kind of thing, and he knows very well that the word public opinion is always the heaviest and most frivolous thing.
"The chief priest of the Koroma region, and Anderhill see the general."
When he met Underhill, he put himself in a low position, and he was not in the slightest complacent about his exploits.
This is also inevitable, the top leaders of the temple have surrendered, how can a small shrimp like Anderhill under the big waves be left alone.
"Priest Anderhir, your merits are rewarded by your own temple, but as the commander of the expeditionary force in the Koroma region, I am very sure of your outstanding contribution to the suppression of the rebellion, and I will report this truthfully."
Wang Xu exchanged a few polite words with Anderhill, and then looked at the young man who was following him.
This young man looks no different from a human, and according to the intelligence, it should be Marven, the half-blood son of the Lord of Cosman.
"You're Marven?"
"General Hui, I'm Marven."
In the face of Wang Xu's questioning, Marven seemed very cautious.
He knew better than Anderhill that the commander, who seemed to be young enough to command an elite wing, must have a difficult position within the Terrans.
The Terrans are too far away for Anderhill, but for Marven they are like yesterday.
Although in his memory, he did not have the impression of this commander, but he would not have any contempt, after all, he stood in a low position in his previous life and did not come into contact with the upper class.
The commander in front of him is obviously from the upper class, and that is the heart of the power game.
"Priest Androseil, I want to say a few words to Marven alone, don't you mind?"
Wang Xu looked at Anderhill with an unquestionable attitude.
"Of course I don't mind."
Anderhill smiled encouragingly at Marven and quickly left the room, giving up the home field.
Wang Xu sat on the chair, looked at Marven who was looking at his nose, nose and mouth, and mouth, and said: "I hope you can say that before you acted, you secretly took refuge in the expeditionary force, and this armed coup was carried out under the leadership of the expeditionary force, and you are just the executor of the plan."
In this regard, I will play the army headquarters and make you the first meritorious, exempt from the responsibility of pursuing the city lord of Cosman to join the rebels, and reduce the punishment of the Cosman family, is there a problem? ”
"It's my pleasure, General."
Marven didn't have any bargaining, he knew very well that he didn't have a bargaining chip with the person in front of him at this time.
People are self-aware.
Marven just wants to avoid the demise of the family and change his father's fate, and he is very satisfied if he can achieve this goal.
As for the punishment of the Cosman family, it was inevitable, and his credit was not enough to offset the credit.
The Cosman family led the Koroma region to join the rebels, which is a big mistake, and it is a big mistake to get rid of the chaos anyway, and it will make people uneasy if they don't investigate the matter at all.
"Good..."
Wang Xu nodded lightly, he likes smart people who know how to advance and retreat, so he said: "Although your Cosman family joined the rebels, they did not cause major losses, coupled with your merits and my intercession, your family should be given a lighter punishment of confiscated property."
You can't stay any longer, and now I'm giving you a chance, are you interested in doing things for me? ”
"This..."
Marven was hesitant, he didn't know whether he should say yes or no.
Refuse, what if the other party is annoyed and angry.
Promised, in his memory, without any information about this commander, it is difficult to say what the future of this person will be.
Before Marven was reborn, although he did not climb to the top, he was also a monk in the merger stage with little achievement, and he was only half a step away from being able to advance to the Mahayana stage.
In the next 10,000 years, he has seen too many ups and downs, and he knows very well that today's wealth does not mean tomorrow's wealth.
Even if he never regarded himself as a savior, he felt that as long as he was willing to work hard and make reasonable use of his reborn memories, he would definitely live a better life than in his previous life, and the merger period was by no means his apex, and he was even expected to become a great monk in the Mahayana period.
is to take refuge, he should also take refuge in a big man who can stand up to the sky in the future period.
There are many such characters in his memory, and nine times out of ten, they have not yet developed.
Among them, there is a man named Yang Xun, the future is even more radiant, before his fall, he was already a great monk in the Tribulation Period, and he is known as the ninth master of Xiuzhen, known as a great person who can change the times.
Marven felt that now he could go to the cold stove, and there was no need to make a decision so quickly.
"It's a decision that concerns my future, and I want to think about it, okay?"
"Of course..."
Wang Xu knew that he was rejected, and sure enough, he lacked the ability to shake the tiger's body.
It's just that he doesn't know that Yang Xun, who has been played to death by him, is the first choice in Marven's heart at this time, and Marven, who rejected him, is about to return to the human race to hug his thighs.
I really don't know if Marven could still laugh when he learned that Yang Xun was dead and had something to burn paper.
Probably not, right?
