"The Berans have burned our farmlands, slaughtered tens of thousands, and destroyed our castles one after another, forcing the nobles to grovel, leaving the commoners to work for them, offering precious rations to feed the horses, while starving themselves.

Although it has been suggested that I make a truce with the Berans, or wait for some time to gather forces and wait for them to be exhausted before turning back to counterattack.

But I want to show them the evil deeds that the people of Belan are doing every minute, and how can any normal person not change his face?

In the middle of the square, Princess Victoria exclaimed, "If they want to fight, I will fight them!"

They want my Hurencia, and I'll give them the best plot of land in Hurencia – just enough for each of them to bury a coffin!

Those who don't want to go to war with the Berans, please leave here now, as a nobleman, I will be responsible for protecting the people who have no power to protect themselves! ”

This sentence was detrimental enough, and some nobles who originally had the idea of not wanting to fight back immediately also twitched.

If you leave, won't you turn yourself into a "people without the power to protect themselves"?

Although many nobles looked down on the commoners, or at least considered themselves superior to their counterparts.

But in the principality, the martial spirit had not yet subsided, and the nobles still believed half-arrogantly and half-proudly that only themselves and their armies had the strength to resist the enemy and protect their people.

If any nobleman honestly admits that he can't fight and doesn't dare to fight, he will definitely become a laughing stock in the circle, and even the people below will say strange things behind his back.

The aristocracy's communication basically relies on half of its strength, and half of it depends on that face, admitting that its strength is insufficient, and it is a great loss of face, isn't that going to be looked down upon?

Being provoked like this, it was difficult for them to step down, and the princess glanced around, very satisfied.

She continued: "The Berans are strong, but when did our Duchy of Lothar become a weak nation?

In the last Holy War, we forged the glory of the 'Iron Wall of Lothar' with the bones of two legendary powerhouses and countless demons, and at this moment I am only curious about what kind of good name or notoriety the Belans are going to give us!

We don't lack strength, we just lack the courage of some people - just now, I was reported!

In the northwestern border of Fanxi County, the young Viscount Meiquan used his wits to maneuver with tens of thousands of Belan troops, and then seized the opportunity to bravely attack and directly defeated 5,000 enemy troops!

Wouldn't he feel ashamed to think of the fact that a new viscount who has only been promoted for a few years can do it, and some people who are stronger than him are afraid?"

The princess scolded loudly, and then she changed her words again.

"Of course, I'm not going to let the warriors fight just with their blood.

In this war, I am very sorry to see that some people do not know the truth, they are frightened, and they give in to the Berans, and some villains even take the initiative to slap the Berans and show their fangs to the principality.

In any case, they must and will be punished!

And my brave soldiers, who fought for Lothar and shed their sweat and blood, are better suited to protect the people, and to enjoy the worship and honor than the cowards. ”

Although it is not directly stated, it is almost explicit: traitors will be punished, including the forfeiture of some of their fiefs, which will be distributed as rewards to the brave and brave men of the war.

There are quite a few nobles, even if they are provoked by words, they can completely work without effort or find some other excuse.

But at this moment, with such a lure, they can't help but be unmoved and show more strength.

As for the ordinary officers and soldiers, they were originally instigated by the princess, and such a promise added another bundle of dry wood to their already high enthusiasm, and burned even more vigorously.

For a while, the cheers filled the entire square, even from the distance of time and space, Luo Ming could see from it, the momentum was almost condensed into substance, like flowers in brocade, cooking oil in fire.

Then, Ariana turned off the spell projection and sat down, wiping her sweat - it wasn't easy to play such a long video.

Although he wanted to laugh a little about being used as an example, Luo Ming was more concerned about what his speech represented than such details.

"Probably a favor for the ally church, anyway, I also got a piece of information:

Less than half an hour after the princess gave this speech, the third bishop of the Springwater Church issued a proposal to the churches in his private capacity, encouraging the people of the churches to help the war-torn areas as much as possible in their personal capacity. Ariana said after taking a sip of water.

"It's a cover-up. Grant asserted bluntly, "It is basically impossible for a big person like the Third Bishop to do such a thing without authorization, and even if she dares to do it personally, others will not tolerate her acting so recklessly, so this is at least the acquiescence of most of the people in the Spring Church."

Instead of directly calling on the church to support the army without official means, it is probably because they don't want to make a big deal out of it.

The royal family is descended from the goddess of springs, but the interests of the church are not entirely aligned. As soon as the Church declared its collective participation in the war, it immediately changed from an ordinary secular war to a war involving the gods.

Now, although there will be many church members participating in the war, at least on the surface, it can be said that it is a "volunteer army" or a "volunteer army", and it will not turn into a full-scale war all at once, and it will end well in the future. ”

"That's a good point. Luo Ming stroked her hair and laughed.

You know, Grant has always been not stupid, otherwise she would have had an accident when she was out alone. Usually she just doesn't take much care of political affairs, trusts Luo Ming, and just carries out his orders.

And Luo Ming now needs her to help deal with some affairs, and she can get started quickly, and then do well, which shows that she definitely lacks political talent, but she doesn't usually use it much, and she lacks exercise.

Come to think of it, the old man who raised her was the head of the Knights of the Radiant Blade, and he was considered a big man in the entire Dawn Church, and he had cultivated her for many years, and he could learn a lot from his ears and eyes.

"Since the Church is cooperating on a large scale, and the princess has also expressed a strong fighting spirit, I suspect that the invasion of the Berans will encounter greater resistance. ”

Luo Ming pondered for a moment and said, "This is a good thing for us, but also a bad thing." ”

The two sides of things are vividly reflected at this moment, and the world is really unpredictable.
