Volume 2 Chapter 13 Outwitting Viruga (2)

Before Fan Ming could say anything, Jill couldn't support it anymore, and finally fell, in fact, Jill couldn't support it for a long time, he already had more than 30 knife wounds on his body, but he still insisted on fighting, bleeding too much and overdrawing his body, so he fainted.

"Someone, hurry up and find a doctor, you must save him! I can't let the soldiers die for me in vain!" With Fan Ming's shout, Lem and the others have already run over and carried Jill down for treatment.

Before the attack on Viruga, the citizens heard the alarm bell ringing on the city tower, so they hid in their homes and did not dare to go out, until now, after not hearing the shouts of the city gate and the clinking of weapons, the citizens knew that the battle was over, so the citizens went out of their homes to check, they wanted to know, who is their heart lord?

At this time, Resarit led a group of people to arrive, and before ambushing the Duke of Gothras in the Van Ming Valley, he had Resarit sneak into Viruga and contact the nightingales there to pass on information.

It was precisely because of this that Fan Ming learned that there were only more than a thousand militia guards in the city of Viruga, so he dared to march so calmly and made this plan.

Ressarit saw Fan Ming from a distance, leading a group of people to come, all dressed in gorgeous clothes, and one seemed to be a god with status (except for the dead old man, Fan Ming did not have a good impression of all the clergy of this era). Because he had a golden cross in his hand.

And what caught Fan Ming's attention was not the magic stick holding the golden cross, but the middle-aged man who followed Resarit in front of him, and the man limped. Appears to be a cripple, dressed magnificently, with a worn-out hat. And that's not all, the most striking thing is that he's black!

"My lord, these are the officials of Veruga," Resarit said as he walked up to Fan Ming, then pointed to the black man in front of him who had been following Fan Ming for a long time, and said, "This is the mayor of this town, Ben Deming"

"Hello my lord, I am the mayor of this town. Ben Deming, you can call me Ben, everyone in the town will call me that," said the mayor of the town, who was called Ben, respectfully.

Subsequently. He noticed Fan Ming's strange eyes, so he followed and said, "My lord, don't be surprised, you are not from this continent. My ancestors weren't Cadia continentals either. They came from far away from the sea, and they migrated here in an age when seafaring was in vogue."

"It's the Age of Discovery!" Fan Ming suddenly thought of the era that the mayor had said, which was so similar to the famous Age of Discovery.

"What did you say?" asked Mayor Murphy.

"Ao is nothing!" "Resarit, you continue"

"Oh, yes, my lord, this is the Archbishop of Viruga"

Fan Ming was listening to the introduction on the surface, but in his heart he was always thinking about the black mayor, is this world. Is it really such a coincidence that there will be the same Age of Discovery as the previous life! Will there be the same Crusades?

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!" Resarit's call pulled him back from his meditation. "What? What did you say?"

"My lord, I say, did you organize the citizens to celebrate the entry of the Legion into the city?" said Resarit

"Congratulations, what is there to celebrate, the dead are all Rhodok's warriors! they are all our family! Do we want to celebrate too?" Fan Ming said with grief and indignation as he looked at the corpse that was being moved. He has now deeply associated himself with the Rhodoks.

"Yes, my lord!" replied Resarit

When he heard Fan Ming's sentence, 'The dead are all Rhodok warriors, all of them are our family', I was shocked, because since he has been the mayor of the town for more than ten years, including his ancestors, he has been the mayor of this town, but there has never been a lord who values his own people, let alone treat them as family.

"Sir, please tell me your name, let me know who rules this town?" asked the mayor. Since the battle was over when Resarit found the mayor, he brought them in without having time to tell them their names.

"My name is Fan Ming! Everyone else calls me St. Fan Ming," Fan Ming said lightly, turned around and left. Only everyone was left looking at his back stupidly.

"Is it really the Saint Vanmin who wants to establish the kingdom of Liberty Rhodok, the Saint Vanmin who protects the common people?" said the mayor as he stood there.

"Is there any other Saint Vanmin?" Ressarit laughed and followed.

So, soon after, the news that it was St. Vanmin who had occupied the city of Viruga spread among the townspeople, taverns, and markets, and people had already heard that St. Vanmin protected the common people and advocated freedom, advocating that the entire Rhodok nation was a family, and they also listened to what the nightingales said that St. Vanmin was the son of the Holy Lord who came to earth.

Suddenly, the whole of Veruga rejoiced, cheering that they were under the rule of St. Vanmin

Mid-August of the first year of the public administration

Fan Mingshun lĂŹ captured Viruga, but what you can see in Viruga is not what it used to be, with ruined city walls, dilapidated houses, messy town streets and city squares, and shops that have long been closed, with layers of cobwebs on the doors.

Due to the war in the past month, the people in the town have long gone out to take refuge, leaving only a few people and some old and weak women and children to look after the house, so the population is gradually thinning out of the original hundreds of thousands of people There are only a few tens of thousands left, and the merchants who come and go do not dare to approach here, gradually, the once commercial city has become a dead city that is about to be forgotten.

On the second day of Van Ming's capture of Viruga, the royal family of Rhodok sent a commendation, signed by the queen and the new king, rewarding Van Ming for suppressing the rebellion and retaking the town, and giving him the title of duke, and Veruga and the surrounding area will be his fief, he can collect taxes and pass it on from generation to generation. He ordered him to return to Aaron and declare his allegiance to the new king and queen.

Veruga, in the castle of the lords.

"Resarit, what do you think of this resignation?" asked Resarit, who was standing aside, with the appointment letter in his hand.

"My lord, I don't know anything else, but, in my opinion, this letter of appointment must have been concocted before we attacked Viruga!" Resarit wrapped himself in a black cloak, and since becoming a nightingale, Resarit had always liked to throw himself into the dark, replied to Fanming.

"Why do you say that?" asked Fan Ming with a playful smile.

"For, it would have been at least two days to get from Aaron to here on a fast horse, but this resignation will be there the day after you take Viruga.

What is even more strange is that the person who sent the appointment was not a minister of the royal family, as in the past, but a person who looked like a soldier, which was not the style of the royal family in the past, let alone the title of resignation to the duke! It is impossible to be so sloppy.

Therefore, after careful investigation by the nightingales, it was found that the man had arrived the day before our attack on Viruga, and had been in the hotel of the city since he entered Viruga, and had not left the house until you entered Viruga, and he did not go out to deliver the letter of appointment. So I think the royal family has already concocted this letter of appointment and has been watching, but what is their intention?"

Fan Ming listened to Resarit's analysis, and an appreciative smile gradually appeared on his face, "Haha! You are worthy of being the leader of my nightingale, you are doing a good job!"

Then he patted Resarit on the shoulder and said, "That's a good analysis, but you don't know the secret yet." ”

Fan Ming plucked a grape and put it in his mouth and said: "The royal family's calculation is very loud! They thought I only wanted a knighthood, so they sent someone to see if I could defeat Viruga, if not, then we would have been buried in the wilderness by now, if we could beat it, they could use the title to win me over, and ask me for something back, haha, yes, this foreign grape is really sour!"

"I see, but what is so important to them?" asked Resarit.

"Haha, remember the little girl I brought back!" "Because Fan Ming asked that the matter of the princess be kept absolutely secret, no one knew that the princess was here. Including Resarit, more people think that the carriage that accompanied them was a certain * of Fan Ming.

"Oh, you're talking about your lover, that young lady," Ressarit almost blurted out as she was accustomed to hearing the people around her.

"Huh?" Fan Ming looked at Resarit in surprise, and said, "It's her, she's the princess of Rhodok!" The queen's own daughter, you say it doesn't matter to them! If I'm guessing correctly, the people sent by the royal family are not out of the city, but waiting to see how I react to the reward!"

"Then, I'll have them arrested!"

"Oh! no! I have a better way!Resarit, gather the legionnaires in front of the tombstone, so that we can gather as many citizens as possible, I have thought of a good way to anger the royal family!" Fan Ming commanded with a smile as he looked at the letter of appointment on the table.

In the afternoon, the soldiers of the Legion were training with the new sergeants, but a melodious horn sound unique to the Freikorps sounded, gathering the soldiers in front of the Heroes Monument that had just been erected in the town square, and some citizens were also here under the propaganda of the Nightingale, the so-called monument was built by Fan Ming himself to commemorate the martyrs who died in the Battle of Viruga.

Towering monuments, empty monuments, Van Ming stood under the monument, in front of the elite Freikorps soldiers, and the citizens of Viruga.

In the slight warm breeze, after watching the crowd gradually quiet, Fan Ming said: "Everyone may be very strange, why did I gather everyone here. ”

The crowd didn't respond, just listened quietly
