Forcibly passing through the long Grand Canyon of the Holy Ruins in just two days was not an easy task, and the horses and soldiers were a little overwhelmed. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Under Lin Ye's order, the soldiers stopped near the redemption village and rested for the time being, it was still raining in the sky, and the rain was pouring down.

However, for the soldiers who had just experienced the baptism of war, such a life had become accustomed to it, and it could be called insignificant, and no one complained.

The entire village was devastated, and it was only after Doragon found a few children hiding in the cellar in the ruins that he survived.

They were frightened and didn't speak, but Doragon was patient and stayed with them until late at night.

"Have the surviving children already fallen asleep? After such a change, they must have suffered a great blow, and it seems that this chaotic land will return to a state of chaos and turmoil after more than thirty years of peace?"

Lin Ye looked at the wilderness in the distance, this land has been fought by two churches for a long time in history, and many wars have broken out in history, and the smoke of gunpowder is filled.

After the annihilation of the Dark See, it was considered to have been recuperating for decades, which is also the happy life that the Church has always preached.

"This turmoil took place before we set foot on this land, and our march was fast, and the news of Gregor's defeat had definitely not reached here, which means that the turmoil here was not brought by us, but why did they do this, to slaughter their own people?"

Lancelot had already learned from Doragon about the culprit of the massacre, and he didn't need to ask the few survivors about Doragon.

According to the clues left at the scene, with their experience, they can easily guess the specific situation that happened in the village at that time.

The answer to this question...... It's late at night, and we have to hurry tomorrow, so go down and have a good rest, I want to be alone. ”

Lin Ye took a deep breath and waved his hand to signal Lancelot and them to go back to rest, the night was deep, and the fires lit by the soldiers were lit.

After exchanging glances with each other, Lancelot nodded, and turned to go down to arrange other affairs.

Although it is difficult for their forces to be completely suppressed in this chaotic land, this is an army that should not be underestimated.

In fact, in terms of combat effectiveness alone, it was the strongest army under Lin Ye's previous command, but the enemies they faced were completely different.

This was evident in the battle in the Misty River, compared to the enemies that had been encountered before, all wearing armor and fighting each other.

After passing through the Sacred Relic Canyon, the enemies you will face are likely to be those unarmed civilians, which is really difficult to accept.

"You seem to be very hesitant, if you don't make up your mind, it will be difficult to sweep this land, and you will not be able to defeat the enemy you are about to face. ”

Just when Lin Ye was standing alone in front of the fire and looking into the distance, a man in a black robe came over in the rain, and he took off his hood.

There are soldiers patrolling and guarding here, and being able to come here through the soldiers' outposts will naturally not pose any threat to Lin Ye.

The man looked to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old, with a handsome figure and meticulously groomed hair that fell down to his shoulders.

Most people in the army don't know much about his origins, even Lancelot and Roland and others, they only know a little rough.

After all, he was one of the three people who followed Lin Ye to the Misty River Army, and it seemed that he had a deep connection to the lost ancient church.

"Hesitate? It's almost understandable, but there's one question I'm puzzled about, this land has been quiet for many years, why do you have to break its original peace, of course, this calm is for the inside, not for an alien invader like me. ”

Lin Ye didn't seem to be a stranger to this man, as he had several contacts with him as early as the Far East.

It's just that at that time, he didn't accept what the man brought him, so he kept it aside and remained silent.

But as the battle progressed, especially after reaching the Misty River, the man approached him again in the face of Gregor's army.

He knew very well that it would be difficult for him to open up the situation in this western crusade if he did not accept the ancient church, but even then he was still confused.

"Actually, for me, the more chaotic the Chaotic Realm, the better, and I can take the opportunity to launch this western expedition to completely crush the core power of the Holy City, let it decay, and no longer be able to cause trouble for the Empire, but for the people who live in this land, this is definitely a disaster. ”

"Since the Dark Holy See chose to give up and let this land return to peace, why is it at this time to resurrect and set off turmoil again? Is it because they see an opportunity to seize power, a desire for power, or are some young careerists doing it in order to realize their ambitions?"

Lin Ye didn't look back, his back was turned to the executioner who was in a high position in the Dark Holy Court, and asked his question, and the rain was falling heavily.

"Peace is indeed a good thing, and it is what everyone desires, in the past thirty years, this originally chaotic land, has indeed ushered in a long-lost peace, the Holy See has gradually disappeared, the Church has risen, no matter how you look at it, this is a scene of great prosperity, everything is so beautiful. ”

"But if you dissect the calm into two questions, the first question is how the calm was obtained, and the second question is what they did after the calm, to these two questions, if it were you, what would you say? ”

The man did not give a direct answer to Lin Ye's question, but asked him two more questions, quietly waiting for the latter's answer.

"If you want to govern a piece of land without turmoil, I think there are usually two ways, one is to give hope to the people, and if you can see hope, you will naturally maintain the existing life spontaneously, and if someone tries to destroy their hope, it will be opposed and condemned by the people. ”

"The other is to give fear to the people, under the high pressure of fear, even survival is extremely difficult, who will do such a thing as disturbing the order and inviting destruction, it seems that the church chooses the latter, as for what to do after the peace, is to no longer be satisfied with the status quo, and start to manage the empire. ”

Lin Ye gave the answers to these two questions, although now he had passed through the Grand Canyon of the Holy Ruins and appeared on this land.

But there is still confusion about the road ahead, and as the executioner said, there is no way to win the battle without full determination.

"It has taken more than thirty years for the Church of Light to tell us that the peace of this land is based on the heavy exploitation of the infidels, and that during these decades of the Jinglu Empire, they preached kindness, kindness, and attracted a large number of believers. ”

"But as soon as the empire begins to weaken, does it not contradict the teachings of the Gregorians who send men to invade the territory of the Empire, and once the Empire has fallen and a new papal state is formed, how will they be merciful to the subjects of the Empire?"
