Chapter 197 What is a political show? It is to see people and talk about people, and to talk nonsense when they see ghosts, and to communicate in the mirror
Like Uvel, the Reservoir Dogs, Sicot did not hesitate long to admit his treason and beg Wren for forgiveness. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He is similar to Kazari, and the whole family may have two or three big cats and kittens, but it can also be said that the family is wiped out, anyway, he is the only one left, and he is also very single. It's better to die than to live, and there is no family glory on him, and the glory of the family has nothing to do with him.
As long as he lives, there is still hope, and at this moment, Sikobi Kazari is much more single, at least he recognizes reality and is not carried away by hatred. Of course, in other words, Sikobi is more selfish than Kazari, the former only has himself in his heart, and the latter pretends to be his family.
As early as the moment when Rennes counterattacked and Sarcomo defected, Joberg had already let the sand and gravel blocking the gate at the city gate be cleaned early. At this time, he came out with someone and couldn't wait to walk towards Wren. The battle, which lasted for more than ten days, made him a lot haggard, and his temperament was also a lot calmer. Whether a person can grow and mature depends on how many setbacks and ups and downs he has experienced. Every pit in life is full of experience.
"Your Excellency Viscount Rennes...... I'm so ...... to see you alive It's so exciting. With tears in his eyes, Joberg stretched out his hands to hold Wren's palm and shook it vigorously. His waist was a little rickety, and he put his attitude very low, even if his title was higher than Wren's, but his performance seemed to be inferior to Wren's. Wren flicked his palm with his fingers reservedly, signaling him not to hold on for so long, and Joberg let go of his hands with joy.
Wren glanced at Joseph, who was standing behind Joberg, and bowed slightly, this chief of staff was far more valuable than Joberg. There are many inactive and mediocre aristocrats like Joberg, but there are not many staff members like Joseph. The city of Millin has long been drilled into a sieve by Alma's beautiful spies, and everything that happened at night in the Doge's Palace some time ago has been reported to Wren just now.
It can be said that Millin City can hold out for so long, and Joseph definitely has an indispensable relationship, if it is still carried out by Joberg, I am afraid that Millin City has already fallen at this time.
Joseph also noticed Wren's gesture, he smiled and lowered his head, he was more optimistic about Wren's future than Joberg, and even his previous head of the family, Prince Kant. There is a famous saying in another world, a good bird chooses a tree to perch on. He also said: The king chooses the minister, and the minister also chooses the king.
The king chooses his courtiers according to his ability, and the courtiers will also choose the king according to their ability, not every courtier has a hobby of training the monarch, like Joseph, who is already young, he hopes to follow a capable, courageous, and brilliant future of the head of the family, at least he does not need to be implicated in the future because of defeat. Glancing at the smirking Joberg, Joseph had decided to kick the idiot and find a way to get closer to Wren.
"What about the casualties in the city?", waving off the soldiers around him, Wren and Joberg stood aside, and Blair followed Wren a dozen paces away, just in case anything might happen.
At this time, Joberg's heart palpitated, and his face was worried. The casualties in the city of Mirin made him, a mediocre governor who had not experienced many desperate situations, feel uneasy and frightened, and the civilian casualties were about 40,000 people, and only seven or eight hundred of the original soldiers remained, which can be described as heavy casualties. Especially in the last few days, when the rebels attacked the city, they rushed to the wall like crazy, not caring about battle damage and casualties. These rebels are elite soldiers, and their combat effectiveness and professionalism are obviously much higher than those of civilians.
If it weren't for the fear of slaughtering the city, knowing that once the city was broken, the citizens of the entire city of Mirin would not be spared, maybe the next day the city would collapse. Of course, thanks to the representatives who took the initiative to join the rebels that night, they proved with their lives that the rebels did not spare anyone, otherwise it would be difficult to unify the minds of the people in the city.
The death of nearly 50,000 people filled the whole city with deep grief, almost everywhere you can see people dressed in plain clothes with sad faces, even the coffins in the coffin shop are sold out of stock, and some relatives and friends who have a good relationship have chosen to let their dead relatives in their families be buried with other relatives.
By yesterday, the people who were still at the top of the city had almost lost all fighting spirit, relying only on a deep love for their families to support them numbly walking up the wall, rather than choosing to wait for death in silence.
When Joberg had ever seen such a scene, he felt that he was about to be depressed, the air was so frozen that he was breathless, and he was about to suffocate with despair like a thick velvet quilt.
Fortunately, Wren came.
"It's miserable, there are a lot of dead and wounded. The specific number of people still needs to be counted, and there are many disabled people, and the situation is not optimistic." ”
Fools also have the advantage of being stupid, that is, they are more likely to be emotional, they are more likely to have compassion, and Joberg brings himself into the identity of these civilians, and when he thinks of those civilians who lack hands and feet, his heart is very heavy. In a society that has not yet liberated labor, a labor force almost represents the standard of living of a family. These young men, in particular, are often the breadwinners of a family.
Once they lose their ability to work, many families risk breaking up and their standard of living plummeting. They didn't end up like this for their own private affairs, but simply to defend the dignity and right to survive in Milin City.
Children who go with boiling water to water ants are sometimes saddened by the mutilation of an ant.
Wren was silent for a moment and said, "In that case, let's soothe it." The money that should be given is in place, the families who need to be supported are put on the burden of the city's finances, and a part of the tax is set aside for these things, and I will consult with His Majesty Pals. ”
Joberg also had some small accidents, in his mind Ren was the kind of iron-blooded, black-eyed super villain, but he didn't expect him to have such a human side. The smile on Joberg's face was much more natural, and he nodded, "I know how to do it." As he spoke, he glanced at the deputies standing in the distance, "Everyone can't wait to meet the savior who saved the city, you see......"
He was careful in his wording, complimenting Wren, the commoner is like the grass under his feet, and few nobles will pay much attention to the joy and sorrow of the grass.
Without the slightest hesitation, Wren answered, "Yes, when they finish cleaning the battlefield, we will enter the city." ”
The cavalry on the battlefield are mending the swords of the rebels who are dying, these people have lost the hope and possibility of continuing to survive, and it is a crime to live for a second longer, but it is better to make up for a knife and let them die happily. There are also those lost weapons and armor, which also need to be put away, knocked and repaired or re-smelted, which can save a lot of money. The scattered war horses were also put away, and at this time, there was no fierce fighting, and the war horses were quiet, eating the grass stained with blood on the ground, and chewing it was extremely sweet.
At night, the Doge's palace was lit up, all the magical pedestals of the cured illumination were lit, and the people were dressed up at the banquet to celebrate the victory, with little grief on their faces, only the joy of the rest of their lives. The women laughed coquettishly to push the atmosphere to a climax, and someone stood up, banged the crystal goblet with a fine silver spoon, making the noisy room quiet all of a sudden, and shouted loudly to Wren, who was whispering to a few people on the side: "Your Excellency Viscount Wren, on this night of rebirth, can you please say something for us?"
Wren tilted his head in surprise, and then swept his gaze to Joberg, who shrank his eyes and was a little dazed, this was not a project he had arranged. Wren thought for a moment, took a drink from the tray held by the attendant, and walked towards the crowd. People looked at Wren one after another, looking at the young man with great vigour, looking at him expectantly.
Wren walked to the middle position, raised his wine glass first, and said with a solemn expression: "First of all, I salute all the heroic souls who died fighting for Milin City!"
"Jing Yingling!", an ordinary sentence, made people feel that the blood began to rush along the blood vessels, and the mood became agitated.
People are not afraid of failure, but they are afraid that even if they succeed, they will not be taken seriously. Many people have exhausted the strength of their lives for a certain thing, but they can't get any recognition, and they die in obscurity in a corner, which makes people cry. However, Wren's first sentence acknowledged these people, acknowledged what they had done for this city, for all the people in this city.
People raised their glasses and slapped the tables to vent their enthusiasm, and they celebrated Wren's victory over the rebels, their holding of the city, and the fact that everyone was given a new lease of life on this day.
Wren put the empty one aside, his hands and ten fingers loosely clasped together, crossed his waist, and walked a few steps, "I saw a miracle today, a miracle belonging to the people of Mirin. Before today, I would never have imagined that someone could rely on a thin body and rudimentary equipment to fight a well-armed professional army, and I think this is a big joke!", the banquet hall fell silent again, and people listened to Wren's every word, every sentence, "Sometimes I am a rigid person, I don't believe in miracles, but today, I have to believe that there are miracles in this world." ”
"You have no weapons, no armor, only blood and an indomitable will. Blood is your armor, tenacity is your weapon!", Wren's tone gradually raised, and his passionate tone resonated with many people, "You have equipped yourself with fearlessness and defeated a powerful enemy. It was you, with your flesh and blood, who poured a city that would never fall. It was you, with the spirit of generosity and sacrifice, who raised the banner of the unyielding of the people of Mirin!"
"Glory to every Millin!" (To be continued.) )
