Chapter Seventy-Eight: Civil Strife

Except for this mansion, the rest of the buildings in the entire manor have been razed to the ground, and the entire manor is like a haunted mansion that has been abandoned for a long time.

On the second day of the monster incident, there were two rumors in the market, the first rumor is that His Majesty the King was afraid of Marshal Tietu, and took advantage of the reason why he returned to the capital without being summoned, and dismissed him from all official positions.

The people in the city began to consciously strike and boycott the market, if anyone didn't participate in the strike? You have no conscience, if you don't have Marshal Tietu, you can still eat, count on that bullshit king to save you, you don't know how you died on the day you died, each family basically sent representatives, and the rest of the people did some limited work, as long as they could eat enough.

The entire Hearthfire City has been completely plunged into chaos, in order to control the development of the situation, Siri IX had to mobilize the entire Third Legion into the city to maintain law and order, you can parade, you can't destroy it in the name of the parade, this is the requirement of Siri IX, and it is also the minimum requirement he has to do.

Even so, the marching people often clashed with the army, and the whole fire turned into a miasma, and many soldiers even joined the procession, why join the march? Last time, if there was no General Tietu, we would have become the rations of the monster, that is a life-saving grace, and again, have you seen which marshal stood in front of the soldiers, Marshal Tietu is, even if it is not this soldier, you have to support Marshal Tietu, in fact, the request of these people and soldiers is very simple, that is, to reinstate the Tietu officer, in fact, Xili IX also wants to ah, but since Tietu left last time, it is like the world has evaporated, making Xili IX a lawsuit, but fortunately, most of the soldiers of the Third Army are still faithfully carrying out the order, which suppresses the situation from further expanding, even soThe few days of demonstrations also caused huge losses to the economy of the city.

Just when this march was not over, another headache was placed in front of Sirius IX, Montgomery, who had been sent to the First Legion as the commander, asked His Majesty the King to resign, and after Tietu left, in order to ensure the stability of the First Legion, Sirius IX sent Montgomery to quickly pick up the commander of the First Legion, while he himself controlled the Third Legion.

But after a few days, Montgomery really couldn't stay, the division commanders of the First Legion were all the strength of the intermediate sword master, and they had been fighting against the beast clan for a long time, and the combat experience was also very rich, you Montgomery was only the strength of the intermediate sword master, you had fought a few battles, you were a guy who hid in the rear and enjoyed the blessings, you wanted to lead the eight of us, no one except Tie Tu didn't think about it, this is the attitude of the eight division commanders. net

Cili IX immediately took a letter of resignation, severely reprimanded Montgomery, and also asked him to stay honest in the First Legion, but Cili IX received Montgomery's resignation, if you don't let me come back, I won't do it, the Kingdom of Cili can no longer lose talents, thousands of troops are easy to get, good generals are hard to find.

Just when Siri IX was in a hurry, another rumor appeared, saving Siri IX, the origin of this rumor is unknown, the content of the rumor is roughly that the monsters that appeared this time are the devils who have been completely eliminated in the legend, someone summoned the devil, and that person turned out to be the patriarch of the Nora Chamber of Commerce, Evdili, for the monsters that appeared this time, no one can be sure what kind of things they are, and at this time, as soon as the rumor came out, it was acquiesced by many missionaries, and the people's attention was completely diverted.

In the eyes of the people, the first thing to do is to eliminate this woman who summons the devil first, and in the absence of Marshal Tietu, if that woman summons the devil again, wouldn't everyone be doomed, so the people decided to kill the devil's spokesman first.

Since that day, the manor where Evdili lives has been crowded every day, clamoring to burn Avdily to death, and if it weren't for Forkins' urgent mobilization of the Nora Chamber of Commerce guards, the people would probably rush into the manor.

Another part of the population demanded that the king arrest Evdili, although the march was still going on, but the content of the demands had changed, the only thing that did not change was that Siri IX was still anxious, and the orcs knew the news of Tietu's resignation and were preparing to attack the border in a big way.

In order to stabilize the frontier, Sirius IX had to urgently summon Montgomery and the eight generals, first of all, he said that Montgomery had been recalled, and at the same time appointed Groussy as the acting commander of the First Army, which was the only way to stabilize the generals of the First Army, and the other seven generals of the First Army unanimously agreed with this appointment.

Xili IX knew very well that the First Legion was the most supportive of Tietu's troops, and from the generals to the soldiers, they were all loyal followers of Tietu, and going to an outsider to be the commander of the Legion would naturally incur the resistance of the First Legion, but what he didn't expect was that the power of resistance was so huge, and it seemed that even if Tietu left the army, his influence would not be able to be eliminated for a while.

Evdili's matter allowed Siri IX to relieve some of the pressure, after all, it is much easier to find the missing Tietu than to deal with the witch, late at night, in the palace, Siri IX sat there quietly, there was no one beside him, and his thoughts went back to a long time ago, when he and Evdili were so troubleless, but now, he has the supreme power, but he still has to compromise with various forces.

The people have gradually lost their patience, for the witch who affects their safety, whether it is true or not, these people want to kill her, only in this way, these people can feel at ease, this is the power of the people, even the king does not dare to dispose of it at will.

Beate hurriedly walked in: "Your Majesty." ”

Xili IX said: "Master, how is the investigation?"

Beate said: "Your Majesty is wise, sure enough, as Your Majesty thought, it is the church that is behind the ghost, the church in the city of fire, when the monster attacked the city, a large number of refugees were treated, these refugees because of the care of the Holy See, coupled with their belief in God, listened to the rumors of the Holy See, and this rumor slowly spread." ”

Sirius IX asked, "Master, what do you think we should do now?"

Beate said: "The minister has three strategies. ”

Siriy IX seemed to have grasped a lifesaver: "Tell me about it. ”

Beate said: "The next policy is to connive at these citizens to make such trouble, which will not only have a significant impact on the economy of the city, but also develop a habit for the citizens, as long as there is a problem, there will be strikes, demonstrations, etc., which will do all kinds of harm to Your Majesty." ”

Siri IX agreed: "Well, it makes sense, in the long run, these citizens will become people, and the government will not be able to control the situation at all, what about the middle policy?"

Beate said: "The middle strategy is to send troops to carry out a bloody suppression right now, but this may bring unnecessary chaos, and the minister does not approve of using this middle strategy." ”

Xili IX said: "Well, it makes sense, if it can be suppressed, I have already sent someone to suppress it, and the mouth of the people is more important than the defense of Sichuan, and large-scale suppression will lead to the situation getting out of control, and even if it is suppressed, it will affect the image of the country in the hearts of the people." ”

Beate said: "The best policy is the most effective, but the minister does not dare to say it." ”

Siri IX said: "But it doesn't hurt to say it. ”

Beate said: "The citizens are now just asking Your Majesty to kill Avdili, then Your Majesty can use this as a condition to negotiate with the citizens, once you kill Avdili, the citizens will be automatically disbanded, as for the matter of Tietu, Your Majesty only needs to promise that the Tietu official will be reinstated, and then, I will send a secret force to get rid of those leaders, without such leaders, even if the people want to reorganize, it is very difficult, this is the most important policy to implement at present." ”

Siri IX said softly: "Master, go down, I'm tired, I'll give you an answer tomorrow morning." ”

Beate said, "Yes." ”

Over the years, there is a trace of the shadow in Cili IX's mind that cannot be erased, maybe because of this, Siri IX has not made a move against the Nora Chamber of Commerce, killing Evdili, he can turn the Nora Chamber of Commerce into the king's property in a grand manner, and then the army's finances and civil affairs will be more abundant, but she ......

In the morning, Beate, who was summoned, hurriedly walked into the palace, and Siri IX said: "Master, I am tired, this time the matter will be handled by you, and Montgomery will be responsible for the arrest, you only need to command in the back, this is my warrant." ”

Beate took the warrant: "Yes." "Since ancient times, those who have achieved great things have not been informal, and the private affairs of children are all passing clouds, and it is also a thing that those who have achieved great things have to give up, Beate suddenly felt that the position of Sirius IX was so painful, all people only saw the glamour above the throne, but who could see the darkness and involuntary body under the throne.

He Xichen is very depressed these days, every day there are nearly 10,000 people surrounded solemnly, constantly marching and demonstrating, every day he is worried that these people who have lost their minds will rush into the manor, if this is the enemy, He Xichen will definitely kill mercilessly, but these are just unarmed citizens, and even many old people and children, He Xichen really has no way to start.

Evdily's situation was even worse, she hadn't said a word since that day, no matter who said anything to her, she wouldn't answer, Chevron had to take care of her all the time, and many times, she tried to rush out of the mansion and into the crowd, God knows what the crazy people would do when they saw Avdily.

Harud came in handy at this time, this guy carried a machete every day from morning to night, patrolling back and forth viciously, many people saw this two-meter-tall bald man, they were a little afraid, although it was impossible for Harud to kill 10,000 people, but none of these demonstrators wanted to be the first to rush out, because the first one to rush out would definitely be hacked to death, Harud's existence effectively stopped the demonstrators, of course, other chamber of commerce soldiers with weapons also played a deterrent role.

On the other side, Beat, on behalf of the king, has openly accepted the demands of the demonstrators, and at the same time stressed that Marshal Tietu will be used again, and in order to show respect for Marshal Tietu, a statue will be erected in the downtown area for Marshal Tietu, on the condition that after the arrest of Evdili, the people must stop the demonstration.
