Seeing the officer's ecstatic expression, Pompey's jaw almost dropped, and he thought something big was wrong with his panicked look. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

And it turned out to be gifts? And not the presidents of the chambers of commerce and the administrative officials of various places, but ordinary citizens? And they came in droves?

At first glance, it sounds fine, but if you think about it, there is something very wrong, because the attitude of the Rose family is now well known.

That is to negotiate peace with the royal capital, which has aroused strong dissatisfaction among the people of the Rose family's territory, especially the citizens of Rose City.

They have been ruled by the Rose family for hundreds of years, and they have never succumbed to outsiders, and they have a high sense of honor and identity.

This can be seen from the farewell of the citizens when the soldiers went out of the city to fight the Imperial Legion, even if the situation of the battle was unfavorable in the future.

The call for war never stopped, and it was not until Wendy was placed under house arrest and Pompey's desire for peace was known that people came to their senses.

The cries for war began to turn into an overwhelming scolding, and even Pompeii was thrown eggs and vegetables on the streets, making the scene embarrassing.

The arrests of opponents in the streets filled the city's prisons, but it was still not enough to quell their opposition, which was a headache for Pompeii.

But it didn't take long for what was originally a situation of scolding to evolve into a team to give gifts, such a contrast is not small.

"Gift-giving? What's going on, who's giving the gift? It can't be that someone deliberately arranged it, it's making trouble there, right?"

Pompeii didn't come back to his senses for a while, and raised a possibility, no matter how you look at it, it's a bit too unscored, and those citizens will give him gifts?

Stones were thrown at his house almost every day, so he added two teams of soldiers to patrol the neighborhood.

"No, it's not deliberately arranged, it's not a troublemaker, now the news has spread throughout the city, saying that Lord Lin Ye, Duke of the Far East, has defeated the East Sea Fleet of the Imperial Navy and come to support us, and the citizens are all happy and take to the streets to celebrate, they are giving gifts to the Duke. ”

The officer, who was a little unclear about the situation, was also excited, and his eyes were full of admiration when he looked at Lin Ye, but he almost didn't go up to ask for an autograph.

The other officers he knew kept giving him glances, but he didn't notice the detail, and Pompey slapped him in the face.

"Bastard, what duke, this is a wanted criminal in the Empire, don't spread rumors here, the citizens will welcome him?"

Pompey's face suddenly turned extremely pale, and after a long time, did these citizens welcome this guy?

"Well, aren't we fighting the Imperial Army right now? and it's true, the subordinates are only responsible for delivering news. ”

The officer covered his face and looked a little aggrieved, he was really wronged by this slap, and it was definitely a good thing for someone to come to support Rose City.

Especially such an exciting thing as the defeat of the Imperial Far East Fleet was simply a booster, and the whole city was boiling.

Pompeii didn't see it here, but he saw it from the outside, and a large number of citizens poured into the streets to celebrate, almost like a festival.

"Damn, you bastard, is the reason why the news is spreading so quickly, is it because you are making trouble?

Pompeii pointed at Lin Ye and threatened, recalling what this kid said before, he was definitely making trouble, otherwise there was no reason for the news to spread so quickly.

"I don't know if the governor of Pompeii has heard of the idiom that the soup stops boiling?" Lin Ye did not answer directly, but threw out another question.

Although Pompey was now full of momentum, and his fierce appearance was almost eager to swallow him, he didn't care.

"What is it that makes soup to stop boiling? I've never heard of it, is it your strange slang in the Far East? What are you going to sell?"

Pompey felt that the situation was difficult, and all he could do now was to settle his mind quickly, and it would be a bit bad if it was delayed.

"Well, imagine what the people of the realm will think when the Imperial Central Legion invades, and the Rose family retreats without a fight, and even the most important Egret Harbor is abandoned? They will feel that this is a shame for the whole family, and they will also be ashamed of it as the children of the family. ”

"When they learn that the family has decided to send troops, it will definitely be a grand occasion of celebration, right? This shows that they have a high sense of honor, belonging and pride in the Rose Battle Banner, and they are unwilling to submit to the royal capital. ”

"And the top of the family not only did not actively prepare for the war, but also put the head of the main battle under house arrest, had frequent contact with the imperial side in private, and even heard that he betrayed the leader of the main battle faction, General Panda, which caused a lot of repercussions among the people, and the governor of Pompeii hasn't slept well in the past few days, right?"

Lin Ye looked at him with a smile, half of the information he had was told to him by the spies he had planted after he secretly entered Rose City.

The other half is the analysis and summary of the information he has learned by himself, with subjective judgment.

"How do you know this? How long have you been lurking in the Rose City? No, how is that possible?" Pompey was dumbfounded.

This kid is talking about the Tao, and in fact, as he said, could it be that he has been lurking in the Rose City since the outbreak of the war?

If that's the case, then it's a little too terrifying, how many hidden stakes and backhands he has planted in secret.

"Duke Ben actually just arrived, entered the Rose City at dawn today, and then found a hotel to take a shower and change clothes, after all, today is to meet his fiancée, who has not seen him for more than two years, and his future father-in-law, so he can't be rude. ”

Wendy buried her head when Lin Ye said this, but Lin Ye watched Pompeii's expression change, looking a little careless.

"You can't ignore the voices of the people and their strength, especially when their emotions accumulate to a certain critical point, with my arrival, the wind is released, they see the hope of winning the war, the depressed atmosphere instantly rises, shhh ”

Lin Ye made a silent movement, in fact, he didn't say it to scare people, he could indeed faintly hear the noise of boiling.

"So, what kind of storm can a mere group of unarmed civilians set off? The army is in my hands!"

Although Pompey's tone was still tough, cold sweat was already beginning to seep down his forehead, after all, he had lived such a long time.

It can be seen that if the situation continues in this way, the situation is developing in a direction that does not allow for optimism.
