An evil heretic, after careful planning, has arranged a large number of troops in Cárdenas, and even dispatched a top military force such as a four-star white-robed mage, in order to bring peace?

How ridiculous this sounded, Gustav was the first to disbelieve it.

He sneered and scolded, "Nonsense! Do you think anyone will believe what you say?"

And seeing that Norman's topic was getting farther and farther away, and he was already far away from the Father, he finally dared to urge again.

"Duke Lake, please give the order to attack!" this time he didn't talk about his father again, for fear that Norman would grab his pigtails again.

Why is it here again!?

Duke Lake was very bitter in his heart, did he raise his hand or not?

Fortunately, Norman intercepted Gustav's orders.

"We have fully expressed our determination to pursue peace, otherwise, with our military might, I would not need to say so much to you. If we had wanted to start a war, I believe that you and these brave warriors of Duke Lake would have been defeated long ago!"

Norman said the same as the truth, a look of great ambition, as if at this moment he could immediately have countless soldiers from the outside at the slightest order.

It's obviously besieged inside, but it's like he's the one who controls the overall situation.

"But we are here for peace, and Mr. Thomas has just said that he has something to say, and in any case, you should listen to what our Mr. Thomas has to say, and give us a chance to express it, right?

"But you don't listen, or rather, what you want is not peace at all, all you want is war! Because only war can give you a chance to get promoted, but peace will not, all you care about is your own power!"

Norman grew indignant.

"Look at these poor people!"

He raised his hand and slowly turned around, pointing everyone in the room in.

"After this war, they will all die here, and Gustav, I think you will have a way to escape, and then, if you wrap yourself up a little more, you will become the hero who led the heroic battle against the Cult of Liberty in Cárdenas! ”

"But, these warriors, these poor people, win or lose, they are all losers!"

Norman pointed in one direction, which was the point where Cuaron threw his gun and rushed out, and the bodies of the two Holy Cult soldiers who were assassinated by the black gun did not have time to be dragged away for a while, and they were still lying on the ground, but they were moved to the side so as not to affect the battle formation, but the blood on the ground was not time to be cleaned.

"Look at those two poor people lying there, it's not just two dead people, it's two broken families!"

Norman's face was full of pain, and just looking at it, it seemed that he could feel the heart-rending pain in his heart at the moment.

"Both of these brave warriors have wives and children, and I guess their daughter may be called Lily and their son is Tom. Originally, this should be a happy family, their father has a proper job, can give them a comforting life, can give them a place to live, can eat white bread every day, can eat steak during festivals, can wear beautiful clothes, and even can provide for them to study under the door of the black-robed mages, and have the opportunity to become a mage in the future, life is infinitely beautiful, and the future is infinitely bright!"

"But now there's nothing. ”

Norman, who has completely entered the play, has mixed emotions such as regret, regret, sympathy, and compassion on his face at the moment, and his words are full of affection.

"With the death of these two warriors, their families have lost their source of income since then, their children can no longer continue to study under the black-robed mage, they no longer have the opportunity to become mages, and they can no longer eat steak during the festival, they can only eat coarse black bread every day, and after this, one day, they will even have to sell their house to make ends meet, and the two originally happy and beautiful families will be shattered!"

Finally, Norman slowly pointed around.

"Gustav, if you had to go to war, countless families would be shattered here!"

Norman has a compassionate and compassionate expression, as if he has the world in his heart and loves the world.

It's like God the Father came into the world.

Infected by Norman's full emotion, the heavily armored soldiers around the square were silent, and the faces of the Holy Cult soldiers in the square also changed slightly.

These brave warriors may not be afraid of death, but as human beings, there are many things that are more worthy of their consideration than death, such as the one Norman said.

The other party is a four-star white-robed mage, and there are so many ambushes around, if this war must be fought, it is indeed like what Norman said, there will be countless families broken. They are not afraid of death, what they are afraid of is what will happen to their children after they die? The Father's Church and the Lord's Mansion will indeed have compensation, but can that compensation govern their whole lives? In the final analysis, their own life is the most practical guarantee for their families.

Gustav's will was undoubtedly stronger than that of these warriors, and he retorted: "This is for the glory of the Father! It is our honor to defend the glory of the Father, and I am sure that my warriors will be proud of it!"

Norman had a tricky angle: "God only taught us to love our relatives and friends, and never said that we should sacrifice our own happiness for His glory, and you are still using God Father to fulfill your own dirty thoughts! Moreover, God has said to love all people, to treat all people as our relatives and friends, all of us are children of the Father, and I believe that God does not want to see His children sacrifice in vain for the so-called 'glory of the Father' as you say!"

Gustav was so angry that he couldn't refute it for a while.

He read the Holy Scriptures, but it is true that he never saw God the Father say in the Holy Scriptures that he would defend his glory, and all this was only added by later generations in reverence. On the other hand, Norman's words to God the Father are all what God really said.

How could he argue for a while?

Fortunately, despite Norman's skillful words, the will of the warriors was still strong, especially the Holy Cult.

Their formation is still intact, their expressions are still serious, their steps are still firm, and the weapons in their hands are still in their original direction.

The Church of the Father has penetrated into all aspects of social life, and every official soldier is basically a believer in the Father, and the brains they have been brainwashed by the Church of the Father for many years are obviously not something that Norman can reverse for a while, and it is completely impossible for them to defect into the arms of the Church of the Free God.

Norman's words, at best, silenced them and pried a small piece of space in their hearts.

But for Norman, that's enough.

"Gustav,"

Norman called Gustav's name and said, "If you're willing to talk to Mr. Thomas, it's good for both of you." Even if we can't talk about it, we will still have to fight in the end, but at least we have tried a peaceful solution, and I am sure that neither of us will regret it. ”

"But if you still don't care about the lives and well-being of these warriors, and if you want to wage war for your own power, and don't even give them a chance to go back and reunite with their families, then I have nothing to say anymore, I can only pray for these brave warriors of the Church of God the Father and the Church of Liberty. ”

Gustav was silent.

The counter-encirclement of the Freedom God Cult and the pressure of the four-star white-robed mage were acceptable to him, and it was a great deal to die for the sake of the Father, which was the supreme glory, but he couldn't ignore the feelings of the Holy Cult Army and those heavily armed soldiers.

He could feel that the mood of these troops, whom he was very familiar with, was a little strange at the moment.

If he still adheres to the policy of not negotiating and only fighting at this moment......

Gustav has a lot of combat experience, and he knows what the consequences of doing this will be: when the time comes, even if these soldiers will not mutiny, they will have resentment, and their combat effectiveness will be reduced, but in the face of a powerful enemy like Thomas, plus those unknown enemies, even if they go all out, they may not be able to guarantee victory, not to mention that their combat power has decreased?

Forget it, there's really no way, let's listen to what else this heretic has to say, anyway, it's already surrounded by them, and if you don't let them go, let them live a little longer.

"Say it. ”

As soon as he heard Gustav's words, the breath that Norman had been holding in his chest just now was relieved, but his back was already soaked.

He did it.

A month ago, Norman could not have imagined that the son of a farmer like himself would one day be able to talk in front of so many big people, and he would succeed in convincing one of the key figures to change his mind.

Now it's up to Thomas.

Although Norman didn't know why Thomas came here, he and Lancelot both believed that a four-star white-robed mage would not come here for no reason, and Thomas must have come here for his purpose, which can be seen from the fact that he wanted to talk to Gustav just now, so he tried to get a chance to negotiate.

Hopefully, what Thomas wants to say will change the situation, if it really can't be changed, then it's better to delay the time, it's better to die late than early, and by the way, you can also delay the Templar Order, and think about what else you can do, maybe you can come up with some peerless plan to save him from danger.

Duke Lake looked at Norman's North Shadow from afar, his eyes thoughtful.

How nice would it be if this kind of person was not a member of the Church of Liberty but a person of his? This mouth alone is worth the title of a viscount......
