Chapter 331: The Merchant's Defeat Next

readx;

Vittorio was indignant, but Fidel's words made him stop talking about himself. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 After all, Vittorio is only sixteen years old, but he has already achieved academic success at the military academy and business success as a businessman, and he has already achieved more than countless people, but his "investment" this time, this time the plan is indeed a complete failure, even Fidel, who does not know the full content of the plan, can see from Vittorio's words and deeds.

Just when Fidel and Marie thought Vittorio would gradually calm down, Vittorio suddenly covered the bottom of his neck with his hand, and a mouthful of blood gushed out of his mouth and spat on the ground. Fett looked at the blood that was still dripping from between his lips, and he immediately walked out from behind the table, trying to hold Vittorio who was half-kneeling on the ground.

Who knew that Vittorio directly shook off his right hand holding the ground and pushed Fid away. He rolled his eyes upwards and stared at Fidd's face as if he were an enemy, "Mercenary, don't touch me! I don't need the help of a mercenary!" Vittorio coughed twice in succession, more blood being spat on the ground, and Mary had already taken out a handkerchief to wipe the blood from Vittorio's face.

Fidel didn't do anything more, he began to read something from Vittorio's gaze - if Vittorio wanted to use himself and the potato mercenary group, it was nothing more than to control some military power. He returned to Ufus, murdered his father, and wanted to seize control of the rebel organization in order to control the military power. Why would an already successful businessman do this? The most plausible explanation is that he wants to change the status quo in the country.

Fidel recalls when Vittorio first appeared, when he broke away from the rebel organization and did not choose to return to Black Swamp City to serve the Duchy of Magini and the Military Academy of the Graves of Peace. Unless he has lofty ideals, why would he give up his prosperous business life, contribute a large amount of assets to a mercenary group, and gain the support of the potato mercenary group? I'm afraid Vittorio never wanted to be an ordinary businessman, he has always wanted to control the real power, the power that can change the country. If Vittorio gains control of the rebels, what will he do next? Will he point his sword against Duke Yanis, or will he side with the Duchy of Magini against the invaders?

"Brother, did you kill my father?"

"So what?" Vittorio sat down with Mary and Lazrov in his arms, while Fidel stood aside and thought, "He's not my father anymore, and my father would never sacrifice the people of this country for his own selfish gain..."

Mary frowned, and Fed noticed a tear in the corner of her eye, "Whatever he does, he's our father..."

"Even if he lures the wolf into the house!, will he still be our father to sacrifice this land with those poor and innocent people of the principality!?" Vittorio replied with such excitement that he couldn't help coughing four or five more times as soon as he finished speaking, and the handkerchief that he had used to wipe the blood was wet with new blood.

Lazrov let out a long sigh, "Indeed, I didn't expect that the conservatives who have always taken a moderate approach would choose to betray the people of their country, even if Ufus finally succeeded in capturing Black Swamp City, he would be robbed of this fruit by the Winter Nationals or the Imperials in a short period of time, he was just for his anger..."

Vittorio glanced at Fidel, who was beginning to understand a little, "I love this land more than anyone else... Whether it's a mercenary or an invader from another country... They're all going to be wildfires that burn everything... It's a pity that my plan didn't work out... God won't help me...", the young short merchant said his heart, and Fidel confirmed his suspicion from the other party's words - the reason why Vittorio wanted to wield power was to protect the country, the land and the people who lived here. For Vittorio, whether it's a rotten and isolated duke, a local lord fighting his own war, or a rebel organization that claims to bring innovation and change to the country, they are all evil and Vittorio wants to eradicate them. That's why Vittorio tried his best to borrow the power of all parties, which was the real "investment" of this young businessman.

Unfortunately, such a plan was too large, and no matter how much wealth Vittorio had, how much smarter he was than the average person, he would not be able to do it alone. It's not that he can't see the current situation and contradictions of the Duchy of Magini, he just can't clearly understand the lack of his ability, even the old Duke Yannis who is scheming will fall into the swords and swords of all parties, not to mention the little Vittorio.

Fed never wanted to change a country on his own, or by his own mercenary group. But Vittorio, who was much younger than himself, thought so and did so, only he fell on the inevitable failure. Perhaps Vittorio asked himself to protect Duke Yannis to the death, in order not to let the country fall in an instant, he and the Rainy Day Captain both know that Duke Yanis is the future of this Duchy, and losing him is equivalent to tearing up the entire Duchy of Magini.

"I understand you," Fidel said to Vittorio again, something he rarely did as he was cold, "I can understand what you want, what you want to change." ”

"You... You understand me?" Vittorio, who was still breathing calmly, no longer had the strength to vent his anger.

"Yes, I know what you want, what you want is something that will make you put aside your pride and be in the company of the mercenaries you hate the most, and make you give up your pride and return to your father who you disagree with the most, it must be something worth protecting. ”

Mary and Lazrov froze, and the three of them looked together at Fidel's slightly elongated face and shallow, thin lips. Vittorio was stunned for a few seconds and immediately shook his head, "Just a mercenary..."

"When I was very young, I had similar dreams as you," Father Faulkner's grim expression came to mind again, accompanied by the unforgettable smell of blood, "No one wants to see their homeland destroyed and ravaged, and what you want to protect is this land, every inch of the Duchy of Mageni, and you want to bring peace to the people here." ”

Feder had gone through these "summaries" in his mind before saying them, making sure that his logic was clear and correct. In fact, Fidel is not 100% sure that this is what Vittorio thinks, but Fett hopes that Vittorio can become a companion and stay by his side, because everyone has similar traces on him.

Vittorio bowed his head slightly, not responding to Fide's "accusations". Mary and Lazrov were like deflated balls, and neither of them looked directly at Fidel - they both remembered the purpose of joining the rebels: to bring justice to the people here, to bring them peace and happiness. This was the purpose of the Rebel Army, but this purpose gradually changed its flavor, and in the power struggle within the Rebel Order, more and more capable people like Clermont and Lyvel joined it, and the simple poor and peasants lost their way and forgot their original intention.

"Captain Fid, I would like to invite you to join the Rebels again," Lazrov was the first to come to his senses from his self-blame and worry, "You are indeed different from the mercenaries I have met, and you have indeed done a lot of other things, our Rebel Organization needs to be like you..."

Fei De shook his head, "Actually, what you need is not me, but you need to reflect on the mistakes you have made," Fei De looked back at the map of the Duchy of Mageni hanging behind his chair, the army of the invading army was deployed all over the territory of the principality, and the defeat was irreparable, "If you can understand where the mistakes of the rebel army are, the people who invaded this land will have a chance to be completely defeated." ”

At this time, Ayana also walked in, she took some supper and put it on Field's table, glanced at Field, and then whispered, "You talk a lot today, unlike you." Fidel didn't feel like himself, either, but Vittorio's desperate expression made Fide realize that there was still something he could do.

Mary clenched her fists with both hands, "Lazrov, don't talk about it, let's admit defeat... Even if the leader of Leon is rescued from the Black Swamp City, the country will be destroyed..."

"Mary..."

"When guys like Lutz and Clermont hold the power of the rebels, our rebels are no longer the rebels they were... It's our mistake..."Mary's self-reflection gave Feid a sense of accomplishment, and the cold mercenary leader finally agreed that human words were an effective weapon.

Vittorio, who had only spoken at the end, had regained his composure, "If I can protect this land and its people, even if it costs my life..."

"A businessman does not use his life as capital for investment. Ayana interrupted.

"No," Vittorio looked up, and Fidel saw renewed hope in his eyes, "I will." ”

Fed soon returned to Fontale with his men, and Lady Eli was already in seclusion, except for a few minor nobles standing at the city gate to greet Fed's group. The mercenary corps under the command of Selena and Jasmine have also made contact with Fidel, and they are clearing out some of the rebel strongholds hiding in the southern region, and they are not with Miss Maeve as originally arranged. When they learned that Fei De had returned safely, they immediately changed their route and moved towards Fontale City.

Rumors about Fidel's murder of the old duke also began to appear, but the people and nobles in the southern region obviously didn't care about this, because more than a dozen nobles of the Southern Alliance had already planned to stand on their own and completely separate from the Duchy of Magini, and the western nobles also planned to incorporate their own territories into the Duchy of Nuo.

"Captain Fidel, Jasmine and the others are back here in two days," Luca was still as refreshed as ever, "There is news that I don't know if it's good news or bad news, the mercenary union has gathered three of the nine mercenary groups, and they seem to have appeared on the border between the principality of Noo and the principality of Magini. ”
