Chapter 630: Wood's Determination
In the imperial capital of Hailin, there are more than 100,000 Bright Cultists. When Wood issued the "Stripping" Decree, more than 100,000 Illuminati took out into the streets and came to the square in front of the palace to stit-in, and have been opposing the Censorship Decree in this relatively "peaceful" way.
And there are also some people with good intentions who take the opportunity to promote the remarks of the Marquis of Wood stepping down!
All of a sudden, the entire Hailin City was stirred into a miasma......
Because of Wood's negligence and rashness, it led to this situation that was out of control, and everyone, including His Majesty the Emperor, was waiting to see Wood's jokes! They wanted to wait until they had dealt with these things before discussing the impeachment of Wood.
However......
No one thought that this seemingly unsolvable situation would be successfully resolved by Wood's two easy blows!
That is,
Simple and crude!
Everyone underestimated Wood's determination to oppose the Holy See of Light!
The "Iron Cavalry Battalion" stationed twenty miles outside Hailin City was recalled to the imperial capital by Marquis Wood, and the whole Hailin was quiet as soon as the 100,000 regular troops entered the city......
However, they came in and did only one thing, and that was "slaughter"!
The entire 130,000 members of the Bright Church were slaughtered on the "Hailin Square" outside the Imperial Palace! And it only took two hours......
When Wood declared martial law to quarantine Helin Square, all the visionaries understood what Wood was going to do!
They were shocked by Wood's determination and means, and shocked by this iron-hearted ......
Of course, it was only the 50,000 city defense troops in Hailin City who isolated Hailin Square, and it was the direct generals of the Tess family who did it themselves. After all, this kind of unsightly thing still needs to be done by cronies. Although it is impossible to hide this matter in an airtight manner......
Slaughtered 130,000 Illuminators in two hours. In four and a half hours, all the bodies were burned. In just one night, Hailin Square was cleaned, and there was not even a trace of blood......
It's like nothing happened here!
However, a whole 130,000 people disappeared here......
And this matter was deliberately manipulated, and spread throughout the country of Astor through some secret channels! Of course, all this was Wood's intention.
In an instant, the kingdom of Astor fell silent......
No one could have imagined that Wood would dare to do such an inhumane thing! All of a sudden, all the people in the entire country of Astor were talking about it.
And that's not all.
Just when the country of Astor was in chaos because of this massacre, news came from the southern border that the 150,000 troops of the Tang Kingdom had broken through the southern border, and then the troops divided into two roads and went straight to the two major cities in the south of the country of Astre, Talas City and Fort Essen!
Is this going to war with the Tang Kingdom?
Everyone was a little desperate......
On the one hand, the decree against the Holy See of Light has just been announced, and at this time, the army of the Tang State has entered, the Astor Kingdom, is this going to be destroyed?
The hearts of all the people of Astor have completely sunk to the bottom......
And it was at this time that the news came from the front that made people desperate again. That is, the one who commanded the 150,000 army of the Tang State was the marshal of the Tang State, Lord Tang Chop! Moreover, the 150,000 army was also the most elite army of the Tang State, the "Tianxuan Scimitar"!
Is this to take the kingdom of Astor in one fell swoop?
Of course, the invasion of the Tang army also had many people gloating. Because the south is the birthplace of the Tess family, three of the four major cities in the south are controlled by the Tess family.
Of the four cities of Essenburg, Lauren, Biyue Mountain and Taras, only Biyue Mountain is not under the jurisdiction of the Tess family!
And the Tang army invaded Essenburg and Talas, and everyone was waiting to see how Wood would respond this time.
But something big enough happened again.
The news came back from the two major cities on the southern front, that is, after the army of the great powers entered the two major cities, they did not encounter any obstruction, but swaggered into the city.
And after the Tang army entered the city, they only did one thing, that is, to destroy all the Bright Churches in the city, and slaughter and capture all the Bright Sect members!
Hearing this news, even the most stupid person understood one thing, that is, the army of the Tang Kingdom did not come to invade, but to help Marquis Wood clear the Bright Cult!
When did General Tang Chop, the generalissimo of the Tang State, also become the Marquis of Wood? Is this possible?
As the gaffe slowly developed, people gradually understood that Lord Wood might have reached some kind of agreement with Tang Guo to make Tang Guo's "Tianxuan Scimitar" for his use!
At this point, people finally clearly recognized the tremendous energy contained in Wood Tess! He saw Wood's firm determination to oppose the Holy See of Light......
As one big thing happens after another, people's nerves become numb. Now, even if there is any more sensational news, people will not be surprised!
So far, both those who oppose and support Marquis Wood have been silent. Because in the end, there will be an end to these major events.
The first to bear the brunt is the Holy See of Light!
With such a "massacre" campaign against them, the Holy See of Light must have the means to fight back, and now it depends on whether Marquis Wood can prevent it!
Looking at it now, there are still many people who are optimistic about Marquis Wood. Whether at home or abroad, the Marquis of Wood has the support of many huge forces! With the strong support of the second and fourth princes inside, and the help of the behemoth of the Tang Kingdom outside.
No one knows how far the country of Astor will go......
There were three princes in the kingdom of Aster, the eldest prince Bennett Herlin, the second prince Barrett Herlin, and the fourth prince Bazel Herlin.
The third prince, Niselle Hailin, died of illness at the age of six, so now only three princes remain.
The position of the crown prince naturally fell to the head of the eldest prince Bennett. But Bennett was the one who opposed Wood the most......
Among the three princes, the fourth emperor Zebazer is the most capable, resourceful and good at leading troops, not to mention, he is also the person who can listen to advice the most, under his command, no matter his background, as long as he has talent, he will inevitably be reused! But somehow, the fourth prince is not trusted by Hailin XVII, that is, the current emperor, His Majesty, and he is also the most unfavored prince. What kind of hard work is basically handled by the four princes......
There were also almost no people in the court who supported the four princes.
The people who supported the eldest prince Bennett were the most, and the first was the prime minister of the Astor Kingdom, Belluk! This former puppet prime minister was deeply trusted by His Majesty the Emperor, and now the family power is also catching up. Of course, there is still a big distance between the Belluk family and the family of the Duke of Kilo according to the Tess family.
The second prince, Barrett, and the fourth prince are the same people. However, it is okay for the second prince to lead the troops to fight, but for the government and politics, he is not handy, and he is a brave and unscrupulous general-style figure.
The two of them have no more supporters in the court than the eldest prince.
Therefore, almost everyone believes that the next emperor of the kingdom of Astor must be the great prince Bennett......
And Marquis Wood's big moves, there is another aspect to be solved. The Holy See of Light just mentioned is an external problem, while the royal family of the Astor Kingdom is an internal problem.
In the royal court of the kingdom of Aster.
The emperor in a golden robe, Hailin XVII, Paul Hehring is looking at this once great hero of the kingdom of Aster, Wood Tes, with an angry face!
Wood's series of actions were carried out very quickly, and it was difficult for people to react! By the time the Emperor heard about the decree, it was already half a month later.
The concealment and delay of those who are well-intentioned is to make His Majesty the Emperor know about these things as late as possible, and the longer the time drags on, the more Wood will make what they consider to be "great mistakes," and this will be very beneficial to them.
To be able to bring down the "big tiger" of Wood Tess is a good thing for them......
Behind Wood, a group of ministers stood up the ranks. And the old man with a sneering face and a gloating face in the first place was none other than the prime minister of the country of Aster, Belluk.
"Wood!"
"Smack!" said Emperor Paul, slamming the table.
"Look what you've done!?Are you going to drag the kingdom of Astor into the 'abyss of death'!!What the hell are you thinking!?tell me!"His Majesty's anger is not something that ordinary people can bear. At this time, the emperor was asking with a red face.
If the mastermind of this matter was not Wood Tes, then it would have been almost impossible for Emperor Paul to say such a question, and he must have killed the matter directly......
"Your Majesty, don't be impatient. Do you still think that the Holy See of Light will spare the Kingdom of Aster? The destruction of the Kingdom of Simon is the best example! The current Holy See of Light is different, and many means and deeds have proved that the ambition of the Holy See of Light will never stop at the Heavenly Continent! The flames of war will one day burn to the Heavenly Desolate Continent! And at that time, how can the Kingdom of Astor protect itself? I am just taking precautions now!" In the face of the emperor's anger, Wood was not afraid.
"You fart!" an emperor can say such vulgar words, you can imagine the anger in it!
"Of course, it is impossible to be good now! All this is your own opinion! I don't care, what kind of 'cutting down' decree is, revoke it for me now! The army of the Tang State, whatever Tang beheading, must also withdraw from our country! I will send an envoy to negotiate peace with the Holy See of Light, as for you, a 'war madman', first resign from all your duties and go back to your family to think about it behind closed doors. As he spoke, Emperor Paul's anger gradually subsided.
Hearing this, the eyes of many people below could not hide their surprise, especially Belluk was the most excited!
However, Wood's next words stunned everyone......
