Margao, the lord of Lightning City, angrily smashed the valuable crystal glass to the ground and smashed it, and there was no doubt that he was very angry at the moment. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

To find out why he was angry, it wasn't because of what happened to Lightning City under his rule, but because of his own brother.

His younger brother Malf is the lord of Ironhoof City under the rule of the next province of Ironhoof, which is not too far from Lightning City, and the brothers are both city lords.

This is also a good story, and compared to other noble brothers who have a lot of bitterness, he and Malf have been very close since childhood.

And they also agreed to support each other, prosper in their careers, and finally enter the royal capital together and obtain a seat in the Imperial Council.

But it is clear that now that the empire is experiencing civil strife, and the two brothers have spent a lot of money to open up the door to the royal capital, his younger brother has died.

And he died at the hands of those lowly mobs, how could this make Margao accept such a reality?

"These despicable untouchables, they actually tied up my lovely brother and burned him alive with those dirty hands, it's unforgivable!"

Margao smashed a cup and was not relieved, and he tossed a pile of silver to the ground with a continuous thumping sound.

"Lord of the City, although it is a pity that Lord Marff is in trouble, the situation in our Lightning City is also not good now, so we must prepare as soon as possible. ”

Just as Margao was venting his anger, the armoured officer Makov spoke eagerly, and now people everywhere were panicking.

"Get ready? Haven't you already shrunk the armies from all over the country back for key defenses? And the army that broke into the heart of the empire is currently operating on the side of Amethyst Province, right?

Margao looked out the window, his anxious gaze locked on the direction of the royal capital, with their local armies alone, they were no match for the Far Eastern Army.

The elite of the royal capital can still be so calm, what are the ministers thinking? Do they want to let this army surround the entire royal capital?

Snow was falling outside the window, and in Wynne's tavern chamber, Crouff was holding a cup and drinking hot water, and it was too cold.

"The reason why Lightning City can still remain calm is because the city lord Margao has shrunk all his troops back to Lightning City, and the number of troops is several times more than usual, although the citizens have long had a deep complaint against him, but under the strict defense of the army, they dare not take any action. ”

Wynne was very clear about the situation in the city, and the total number of citizens in the entire Lightning City was only one or two hundred thousand, and the army reached more than three thousand.

In this ratio, where do the citizens of Lightning City dare to resist, they can only swallow their anger and continue to work and continue to live.

"However, the direct consequence of the total reduction of the army is the weakening of local control, especially in remote villages, where it is difficult for the oppressed peasants to survive in such a cold and unfettered weather, and they will inevitably take up arms to resist. ”

Lin Ye dipped his fingers in the water and drew a rough situation map on the table, with only a few brushstrokes, but it outlined the situation in Lightning City.

"Sir, do you mean that the villages around Lightning City are about to riot, and that's good news for us. ”

Hearing this, Crouff was overjoyed, and now the situation around the royal capital must be as chaotic as possible for them.

"From a strategic point of view, it is true that the people, after experiencing the test of war and cruel weather, can no longer bear the oppression from the aristocratic class, once someone lights a spark, it is bound to burn the prairie fire, but from the standpoint of the people, it is they who suffer. ”

Lin Ye shook his head gently, if he wasn't forced to the point where he couldn't live, who would risk such a thing as taking up arms to resist?

"But change has to come at a cost, and this generation suffers so that the next generation can live a better life and start a new life, so even if we know that, we have to do this kind of thing, and the calm here is just a precursor to the storm that is coming. ”

Lin Ye looked at the oil lamp in the middle of the table, the flames were bubbling and bubbling, and the flames were reflected in his eyes.

He could fully foresee what was going to happen under the raging flames, and whether he wanted it or not, it would be an irresistible torrent!

Meanwhile, in the village of Bacon in Lightning, a burly man in his mid-thirties threw a rusty sword in his hand.

The long sword, already stained with a lot of blood on its blade, pierced the back of an escaped officer and threw him to the ground, blood gushing from the ground.

Not yet dead, he wailed for help, but no one sympathized with him, for not long ago they had been robbing the villagers of their belongings.

The villagers, who had endured to the limit, finally took out their sticks to fight the soldiers with their sticks under the leadership of that man, and set off a rebellion!

"You lackeys and livestock, we only have this little food left for the elderly and children to spend the winter, you all have to grab it, and you won't leave us a way to live at all, since you are all dead, why don't you lackeys be slaughtered first? We are not domestic animals, we are living people!"

The burly man walked up behind the officer, stomped on his back, and slowly drew his sword, but the latter had not yet breathed.

In such a cold winter weather, he was still wearing short linen clothes, and there were scars on his arms that had long been scabbed, which was shocking.

"This is what you forced us, we can't live anyway, let's kill all you beasts first, this is your retribution. ”

He plunged his sword into the back of the officer's neck again, and the latter's struggling hands finally fell limply, and he was finally dead.

"Uru, what are we going to do now? They won't come back to us for revenge, will they? We can't live in peace anymore with this kind of thing. ”

"This is also what they forced us, we just want to survive, we never ask for too much, but we are not left with any way to live. ”

"Ulu, what do you say, everyone listens to you, and it's not just us, I heard that many villages have killed these lackeys, right?"

The men of the village, all with rudimentary farming tools and the corpses of a dozen soldiers lying on the ground, were so indignant that they decided to resist.

"We ...... Go to Lightning City, only by laying down there, can we get food, and survival is never a sin. ”

The man's eyes were fixed on the direction of Lightning City in the distance, and the old people glanced at each other and began to move in that direction with the old and the young.

They don't have enough food anymore, and they can only survive if they get to Lightning City, or else, they can only die!
