Chapter 205: Funerals and Meetings

And after trying hundreds of members of the gray organization who were worthy of a bullet, Xia Lin also had the perpetrators shot in batches according to the severity of the crimes, and then hung the bodies of these criminals on the wooden poles under the stage, and let the silent and angry people use their hands and teeth to break up the corpses of these criminals into countless pieces, and there was not much blood left.

Seeing that crazy scene, even Xia Lin was a little frightened, and the leaders of the gray organization who had not yet been executed after the trial was completed were even scared out.

Because the Sassen Empire is located on the south side of the continent, plague is rampant, cremation is the most common burial method, folklore does not pay attention to the integrity of the body, but like this after death by people like evil ghosts to eat alive, or make countless people frightened, among those waiting for execution, there are even because of this scene scared to death.

After the bloody public trial was over, the slum was officially renamed the new district, and Xia Lin also experienced for the first time how terrible the popular tide he set off, and also understood how deep the hatred of the people in his territory was for the tyrannical ruler under the seemingly simple and patient appearance.

On the afternoon of the day of the public trial, Xia Lin selected a beautiful river bay near the barracks of the new army, established a cemetery that was quite simple in all aspects, and then began to preside over the first public memorial ceremony since the establishment of the new army.

First of all, the tall and gorgeously dressed soldiers buried the cremated urns of the corpses of the New Army soldiers who died in the cemetery in the center of the cemetery according to the process given by Xia Lin.

"Erect a monument!"

After confirming that the bones of every war dead of the New Army were properly buried in the cemetery, Xia Lin shouted, and with the help of more than 20 senior officers of the New Army who had taken off their coats, the ten-meter-high granite monument commissioned by the Masons Guild to be urgently carved was erected along with the ropes of the rudimentary crane erected above.

With the blushing faces of the three great knights of Laiyin, Kixiuan, and Fatlan, the group finally put the tall monument into the deep hole above the cemetery tomb safely, bringing darkness and peace to the sleeping victims inside.

"Playing music! Salute!"

The tall soldiers on the side, decorated with various tassel belts, took over Xia Lin's duties, and according to the plan, he gave orders step by step.

The new army did not set a military song, and Xia Lin did not understand music, so he had an orchestra play a piece of music called "The Epic of Bagner", which describes the scene of the last battle of the legendary career of a knight named Bagner Francs, and the tune is sad but passionate, which is quite suitable for this funeral.

After the three-minute subsection had passed, it was followed by Xia Lin's speech, the process of awarding the medals, and finally the guns and cannons of the soldiers of the New Army greeting their comrades.

In this funeral, which left a mark of honor on countless New Army soldiers, Xia Lin did everything he could.

Perhaps in this transcendent world, the dead can also feel the remembrance of the living through these, and Xia Lin hopes that this public sacrifice can provide comfort to both the living and the dead.

After dealing with the bereavement and burial of the new soldiers, various other complicated matters also came with the official establishment of the new district and Xia Lin's previous big move in the slums.

"Councilor Charlin, what exactly have you done? Like fish teeth, shadow hands, blood thorns...... These gray organizations are loyal to our enlightened faction, and you actually ordered the new army to destroy all their forces? Those people are part of our Alliance!

Even if you are a slum viscount from Her Majesty the Empress, it is too much!"

On the morning of March 6, 1392 in the Imperial Calendar, at an emergency meeting of the League in the old Enlightened stronghold of the Vignia Opera, Viscount Gladstone Eugene sat in his speaker's seat, slapped the table reluctantly, and angrily rebuked Charin, who was sitting in the first row of the audience.

Originally, according to the original plan of the coalition, the meeting was held three days later to establish the Imperial Bank and issue government bonds for the parliamentarians to subscribe to.

But in Charrain

After a thunderous wave of liquidation of gray organizations in the slums, dozens of gray organizations were quickly broken down by the offensive of a battalion of new troops and a large number of slum people, and the interests of the chambers of commerce in the alliance, led by the Eugene Chamber of Commerce, related to intermediaries and other gray fields, were greatly affected.

Under their strong dissatisfaction, Viscount Gladstone Eugene could not sit still, so he used his power as speaker to convene this alliance meeting in advance, and as soon as the meeting began, he got up and began to bombard Xia Lin.

"Speaker Gladstone, I think you've forgotten one thing, I'm the lord of the slums, the territory that should now be called the new district.

As the lord of the new district, I have the right to freely arrest and try all the rebels, because of the gray organizations in the new district, our Xinglan Industrial Park has lost hundreds of skilled workers and employees, and the production of various factories has been seriously affected.

Members of Parliament may look at the statistics handed out to you before the meeting, and we have lost fifteen per cent in productivity in the past few days, and that is not a reason for them to be insurgents?"

Regarding Viscount Glaston's anger, Xia Lin stood up and said loudly.

"According to the results of the investigation of the Mage's Guild, the gray organizations that caused the damage are all conservatives!"

Viscount Gladstone said sharply, although the Eugene Chamber of Commerce's operation in the gray field does not bring much profit, but it is extremely useful, relying on the tentacles of these gray organizations, the Eugene Chamber of Commerce can easily grasp the movements of the imperial capital.

In some areas where it is inconvenient for the officials of the Eugene Chamber of Commerce to make a move, there is such a glove that can also be convenient, such as the intermediary businessman with mixed ingredients operated by the Eugene Chamber of Commerce, he naturally can't bear the family's eyes and white gloves being destroyed by Xia Lin like this.

"Really? It's a pity that Speaker Gladstone didn't explain to me in advance that the grey groups were conservative people, and the grey groups were our people, so I had to let the Forces nouvelles dispose of them all."

Xia Lin said with a look of regret, which made Viscount Gladstone even more angry, but he also heard the meaning of Xia Lin's words, that is, he did not want anyone to have the ability to interfere in the new area.

When he cooperated with Xia Lin before, Viscount Gladstone did not explain the specific forces in his hands to him in detail, and now no matter how he looks at it, he can only suffer this dumb loss.

"Councilor Charin, at the very least, you have to release the people on the list we provided!"

Viscount Gladstone suppressed his anger and sat back in his seat, his words full of gunpowder.

"Does Speaker Gladstone mean those who have been sentenced to re-education through labour by the arbitrator for the crimes of picking quarrels and provoking trouble, assembling crowds to fight, extortion, unlawful detention, organizing and forcing women to engage in unhealthy trades, and opening casinos?

I'm sorry, Speaker Gladstone, the trial of these prisoners is over, and they will atone for their sins by dedicating years to more than ten years of labor to the people of the new district according to their crimes.

The first of them has also been shot dead by the soldiers of the New Army, and the people of the new district are all celebrating that day!"

Xia Lin also sat back in his seat, and said to Viscount Gladstone in a surging voice under the various eyes of many Alliance Councilors behind him.

It turned out that he could cooperate with the enlightened aristocracy in order to defeat the conservatives, and even disguise himself as someone on their side, but now that the conservatives are in Hurghana, he naturally has to change his goal to solve the next contradiction and let the situation evolve step by step in the direction he wants.
