Chapter 253: Promise, Breaking the Game
"Yes, yes. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The soldier obeyed the lord's order and stepped back out of the tent, and after a while, an unkempt man, dressed in clothes of unknown material, with his hair tied together and dreadlocks like those Caribbeans singing reggaeton, gave the first impression of a man who had survived the wilderness.
Well, I still don't have Grisbane, the kind that Bei Ye can survive.
Ilr looked at the man in front of him, as if he hadn't figured out the situation yet, he was also looking at himself, his two eyes looked around, as if he was attracted by the light in the tent, seeing that he neither knelt down, nor explained his intentions, looking at Il, who was in such a situation, he didn't have time to dwell on why he was like this, so he asked first:
"Were you sent by Jung to meet me?"
When the man heard Il's question, he couldn't help but retract his gaze to Il, looking at the man in front of him, he couldn't stop sighing in his heart, it turned out that this person was Earl Il, and he didn't look like a nobleman.
A soldier like him, who has seen the biggest nobleman in his life, is only a soldier of his lord, and naturally thinks that since the title of earl is greater than the title of his lord viscount, then he must be more luxurious than his lord in terms of dress.
But at this moment, Yier's dress is very simple, the upper body is just a white satin dress worn inside, and a leather jacket is put on the outside, and the lower body is an ordinary pants made of cow skin, which looks the same as that worn by ordinary farmers, only a silver necklace worn around the neck is not worn by ordinary people, other than that, there is really no difference, and it is no wonder that this dirty man will be wrong.
Now that he heard that Ildu had called himself me, he naturally fell to his knees and told him what Jung had told the Count, as Jung had told him, word by word, in exactly the same tone and tone: "Lord Il, my master has sent me to tell you exciting news that the city of Genoya belongs to you. โ
After speaking, the man put his hand on his chest, took out a bamboo tube from the inner layer of his clothes, and handed it to Yir, the bamboo tube looked a little dirty, but it could still be seen that it was very exquisite, the black shell was carved with a knife The Luger family badge, so that the master's original color was revealed through the tip of the knife, it was an exclusive item belonging to the Luger family, except for Jung and his family members, no one else was eligible to use this badge.
"Hot, Genaya, Rong, Viscount Jung, captured?!Is this true?!!"
Ilr did not take the bamboo tube handed by the man, but took four or five steps backwards, until his back was pressed against the curtain in the tent that separated the antechamber and the back hall, and then he stopped, looking at the man in front of him, as if he had just grown up as a child, as if he had the emotions of Santa Claus's existence, both longing for him and fearing that he really did not exist.
It's complicated.
"It's true, Lord Earl, if you don't believe it, you can open the bamboo tube and take a look, inside is a letter written to you by the master, who has written the whole process of the battle and the results of the handling in it. The man looked at the count's expression, and he couldn't help but feel proud to be a member of the Ruger family.
Look at what my lord has done, how beautiful it is, even the Earl can be so shocked that I can't believe it!
The man said triumphantly in his heart, but in reality, he lowered his head and raised the bamboo tube high, waiting for Yir to take it, looking humble like a hound.
"Yes, soldier. The man's idea may be a little narrow-minded, but it is quite in line with Il's psychological condition at the moment, he originally asked Jung and Jonas to go to Genoya to ambush just to let them bring a little trouble to Gennaya at their most critical moment, so that their army can attack the city of Bidr more smoothly.
In addition, Il didn't expect Jung and Jonas to be of much help to him, otherwise he wouldn't have just let Jung and Jonas set off with 2,000 men, and he also took back the Pigaro detachment that had been under Jung's command, because in his heart, Il didn't take this surprise attack too seriously.
What's more, when I made this decision, I actually still had some selfishness in my heart, although I was important to Jung at that time, but because I valued Jung, the elder who helped him in his initial initial stage, so among the nobles, Jung's situation is no longer the same as before, and the relationship with many nobles is not as good as before.
This is also one of the reasons why Il asked Jung to carry out this mission, that is, to cool down Jung's momentum, so that he should not be too prominent among a group of nobles, so as not to be able to continue to support himself too soon because of other people's plots, and he can also use this opportunity to support other nobles to compete with Jung's faction, so as not to become too strong to threaten himself.
Politics is like this, balance is the most important, it's not about feelings, just like when he brutally killed Monferrato's cousin, in fact, to be honest, Il didn't have much hatred for him, and even when the two of them were young, they often rode horses together and participated in each other's birthday parties, but for the sake of balance, Il wouldn't even leave him a whole corpse in the end, this is politics.
Il's original intention of sending Jung was very simple, generally friendly, although it was mixed with some political footpower, but in general, it was to take Jung and his children out of this battle, not at all like Jung so he entrusted the great task, so Yir thought that Jung's army had been annihilated because of the steady stream of Genaya's army coming to Biddle.
He didn't expect Jung to accumulate his strength and finally poke out the enemy's lair.
Feeling that his legs had finally regained some of his strength, Yir slowly moved his hand away from the cabinet, although his body was a little trembling, but he could still stand firmly, looking at the sealed bamboo tube in front of him, Yir stretched out his hand and took it, and looked at it carefully, the excuse of the bamboo tube was stuck together with a layer of soil, very firm, Yir touched it lightly with his hand, with the powerful tactile system on his fingers, he could be sure that Jung had not opened it since he put the letter in.
After a careful inspection, Yier was relieved, put the bamboo tube on his chest, stretched out two fingers with his other hand, gathered into a sword and slashed towards the front of the bamboo tube, only to see an afterimage, not even the slightest sound, only the front end of the cut bamboo tube fell to the ground and made a few jingles, and the man kneeling on the ground on the side also opened his mouth wide, and he didn't dare to think in his heart.
The broken bamboo tube was turned upside down and shaken, and a roll of white silk slipped out of the crack and fell into Il's hand, and the touch alone could make Il believe that Jung had really captured the city of Genaya, because such delicate silk did not exist in the barracks, and since Jung would use it to write, he naturally had a source, and this source, Il could be sure without even thinking about it.
Slowly unfolded, a whole piece of silk about the size of an A4 paper appeared in front of Il, but Il's eyes did not directly fall on Jung's report written in black charcoal, but focused his attention on the silk itself.
Through this thin silk like cicada wings, on the silk with much thicker silk sewing auspicious clouds and other patterns, in the delicate, there are faintly some line segments of the rough, this feeling is very strange, so strange that Il can't help but blame Jung for using such silk to make the paper for writing letters, it is simply a violent thing.
After reading the silk itself, Il was willing to move his gaze to Jung's battle report and began to read it quickly.
The chaos outside is not over yet, and Il knows very well that only by grasping the truth of the matter as soon as possible can his soldiers regain confidence and stop being suspicious of each other's movements because of the enemy's movements, so that the current situation can be stopped.
At a glance and ten lines, Ilr quickly saw Jung's letter from beginning to end, not that Ilr really read it quickly, but Jung's writing was really shriveled after losing the polish of Father Nader, and all the flowery rhetoric was not traced in this letter, from beginning to end it was flat and straightforward, without any climax, not to mention any comparisons and battles.
But Il was still very excited, and his excitement was not because of the victory in this battle, but because of the way in which this battle was won, which was unheard of for him.
"The establishment of the system of military direct jurisdiction, the system of the people's assembly, and the abolition of merchant privileges are simply genius ideas, I never thought of it, how could I not have thought of it!" Il muttered from his mouth, as a young but experienced commander, Il could certainly see the mystery of these systems introduced by Jung in his letter.
The army directly collects the military power, and the people's assembly makes them elbow each other, no one dares to act rashly, and the abolition of privileges is so that the people at the bottom of Genaya will completely abandon the coat of invaders to Jung's army, take the initiative to change them into the coat of liberators, and then canonize a landmark privileged figure as a nobleman, and focus the hatred of all privileged classes on this Roccodor, and Rocoduo can also get practical benefits, so that he does not have to worry about the counterattack of those merchants, this is simply an interlocking and seamless systemใ
"Soldier, who came up with these methods?"
The dirty man should have left the tent to find a place to take a bath and change clothes after handing the bamboo tube to the earl, but Yir did not let him leave, and gave him a chair for him to sit down, so at this time the man was looking around on the chair, the earl's tent, he really had never seen it, and he might only have this chance in his life, how could he not take a few more looks, otherwise when he went back to brag to his brothers in the future, how could he brag.
This was suddenly named by Il, and before he could hear the words clearly, the eyes that were glancing around suddenly returned to his taste, and he thought that his actions had annoyed the earl, and after his brain reacted and received the message in Il's words, the man breathed a sigh of relief and said honestly: "It was Jung's master who came up with it." โ
The man really didn't lie, the design of these systems was all told by Jonas to Jung in private, and when he announced it to everyone, it was all Jung who announced it, and everyone didn't know the inside story, so they naturally thought that Jung came up with it himself, after all, Jonas was just an eight-year-old child, and saying that he came up with it would make people feel ridiculous.
As for why Jonas didn't tell others that he said it, and then pushed this credit to Jung, there is naturally some truth in this, for example, Il, at this moment, after hearing that it was Jung, there was only surprise and surprise in his eyes, but there was no killing intent, but if Il knew that Jonas came up with it, then it is estimated that he would be really sad in the future.
"Mr. Jung is really worthy of being the patriarch of the Luger family, both civil and military. After getting the confirmation of the soldiers, Yier sincerely sighed that at the age of more than thirty years old, he could come up with such a sleek and comprehensive method, this wisdom, he really can't compare, and his former self is really a little sitting in the well and watching the sky.
As for the knighthood proposed by Jung in the letter, Il didn't care at all, he was not an elm head, and he would go to a title for the sake of practical interests, let alone a small count of Rocodor, even if it was a marquis, or even Jung wrote in his letter that he wanted to knight all the merchants of Genaia, as long as there was a reason, Il would agree.
It's a bargain to trade a knighthood and honor for a city that hasn't been through war and is loyal to you.
The man sat on the chair, lowered his head and peeked at the Earl putting the silk aside, his whole expression seemed to be empty, and he unconsciously said: "Earl, the master asked me to write a letter for me to take back after the bamboo tube was delivered to you, I don't know."
The man's words interrupted Il's emotion, and he said in a daze, "Letter?" and then suddenly realized, the soldier didn't know anything, so it was a little unreasonable to say it, but as long as he read the letter, he could understand that Jung was asking for a reassurance pill from himself.
Il nodded hurriedly, walked to the desk and took a piece of paper and quickly wrote a letter, the content was also very short, leaving aside greetings and encouragement and praise, the core was just one sentence, agreeing to canonize Rocodo as an earl and all policies, which would not be changed, and immediately after writing, he put it in his own bamboo tube and handed it to the soldier, so that he could take it to Genaya immediately.
Seeing that the soldiers, who had not even taken a bath, hurried out of the tent to lead the horses outside, Yir also stood up from his seat, walked out of the tent, and shouted to the people around him:
"Genaya has been captured. (To be continued.) )
