This time, it was the turn of the officials who were close to the businessmen to be surprised: "But it is too difficult to obtain so much money in a few days! Even the big chamber of commerce needs to be approved at various levels, even if it is the fastest, it will take half a month~~" After finishing speaking, he was stopped by the general and said: "Then I will give them more preferential privileges! Including all disputes related to them will be presided over by the officers' council, and they will do business in the local area without charging any road tolls." There are also a range of other offers. I don't believe they can't do it!"

The officials below were in an uproar - to be precise, the officials representing the nobles and the lords of the big estates were in an uproar: the judicial power and the important roadblock robbery fees of the nobles were abolished, so is this the world of the nobles or the world of the merchants?

Just as they were shouting: "No! No! This will inevitably cause great dissatisfaction," but the general viciously scolded them back: "I think you are the only ones who are dissatisfied! I am not afraid to sue you, this is a matter of success or failure in the war, and also of the future of the empire." How can you hillbillies see its importance?! Whoever makes me unhappy today, I will make him unhappy for the rest of his life! Say, who else is against it?!"

Naturally, no one objected. Everyone respectfully shouted in unison: "The general is wise, I'll do it later." And then they all came out silently. But instead of 'doing' things, they walked away in groups and discussed today's events in private.

This continued into the evening, and even into the homes of certain officials, such as the newly promoted official who was in charge of the city's warehousing. In his house's fully enclosed secret room, all kinds of protective spells were turned on, and powerful spell energies such as 'Mage Secret Room', 'Misleading Spell Enchantment', and 'False Vision' filled the bright room. so that no words or images can be transmitted.

"This is simply insane!" said a viscount, sitting on a large large thick wooden table, while drinking anxiously red wine to relieve his feelings, "the people of the royal family are so disorganized! Isn't it just a few stinkers? plus licking that arcane law bird, you dare to swagger in front of us! The nobles of that kingdom are like us, who are called and flanked by a few pig-tailed whips, and the so-called viscounts and earls are not even as good as a large estate in other kingdoms! At least after the people have paid the prescribed taxes, they can refuse those unreasonable demands, and we are threatened by them every day, and even a few long-horned cool officials dare to show off their power before us, and openly demand money. What a world!"

A noble and patron saint of the High Priest of Seanworth, a nobleman and guardian god next to him, sighed and persuaded: "Don't think too much, if you accidentally slip out of your mouth one day, those few Gargus believers with devil's hats will definitely pry open the door of your apartment." They're a dog from the church of Bonoun! ”

A viscount next to him also persuaded: "Yes, now the army has been under the control of that group of pig-tailed whip royal families, and even their own king can't force it too hard." And what about us?" the viscount on the other side almost roared angrily: "We have thousands of miles of North Sensaro, how many nobles and nobles of all sizes and loyal retainers are there!, are you all willing?"

The senior priest of Sienworth stretched out his hand to force him to calm down, and said with a sad expression: "What can we do if we are not reconciled? We don't have an army in our hands at all! How can we fight against them? Not to mention that they have the support of the Austrian Federation behind them." We simply can't afford to mess with it. ”

Speaking of the Austrian Federation, the others couldn't help but spit and scold: "Fuck the dog, the Bullshit Austrian Federation! Every time there is a war, they will increase the price wildly, and desperately exploit the property." They're just a bunch of vampires! If they hadn't raised prices like crazy this time, and they were short of time, so they had to make or draw spell items temporarily, the price would have risen by 40%. Those spell items must have been made a long time ago, and then they just found an excuse to prevaricate us. Hmph, do you think we're really country fools who don't know anything? These mages are just profiteers in mage skins. If it weren't for their insatiable greed and the blessings they raised one by one, we wouldn't have to suffer such a big loss!"

Some people even took a far-sighted view: "Last time, the general also collected taxes urgently, and it was also said that the god of Bonuen gave a divine revelation that he could defeat the rebels in one fell swoop and return everyone to a peaceful and prosperous world." But in the end, thousands of people were hunted down and killed! What if we fail again this time? Will we have to raise taxes again when the time comes? We are already poor, can we afford to be squeezed like this? If we raise taxes again, the next time barons from all over the country come to see me, they will only come on donkeys!

Another glamorous marquis with a noble status and a gold and silver body snorted coldly and scolded: "I see that the general and those officers of the royal family don't want to go back at all! They just use the excuse of exterminating the rebels and stay with us to make a fortune! Everyone see, even on the eve of their defeat by the rebels last time, there were still a large number of elite troops and well-equipped warlock officers covered with magic items did not participate in the battle, but ran to various villages to ask us for 'arrears of taxes'!" Is it more important to fight a war or to collect money? Hmph, I don't think they can squeeze this land cleanly, they will never give up! Now they are wantonly giving out privileges to merchants for the sake of their own military exploits, and in the end it is actually us nobles who suffer! He is simply taking our interests in exchange for his prestige among the royal family, especially among the officers! Staying here for an extra day is a scourge! A scourge ten times worse than the rebels!"

Having said that, it would be no different from the rebels. So everyone fell silent, and it was a long time before the nobleman asked the warehouse official, "Is there really no way to solve it?" Seeing those bastards pulling us out of the skin? I'm almost fucking unbearable!"

The official in charge of the warehouse sighed and said: "If you can't help it, you have to endure it! Who let us have no army? If we don't have a backer, we can only be bullied by others." Unless we can also find our own backer~~" The marquis on the opposite side suddenly became vigilant: "You~~ What does this mean?

"No!" an unfamiliar voice sounded not far away: "Not a backer, but a possible ally! If you want to, we will soon become close allies." Hahahaha~~" The frightened crowd looked back and immediately gasped - it was the clerk of the Governor who appeared, and it turned out that this guy had been hiding inside for a long time.

The people who were still smoothing their chests were about to ask the warehouse officials what the hell they were doing. But I heard the clerical official laugh and said: "Don't panic, seeing that everyone is so indignant, then I will introduce you to a new friend!" As soon as the words fell, the void around him showed a priest of the Church of Cusport, although the appearance is old, although the clothes are old, but he has the majesty of a high priest! He raised his hand with a smile and greeted: "How are you? Hahahaha~~ Don't look at me with that kind of nervous eyes, the past grievances are the same, but history is to continue to the future, we should focus on the future." Do you say, Reverend Seaworth?"

"You have some truth in what you say," the old priest of Sienworth was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted, and replied kindly with a soft smile on his face, "that time, this time, that place, this place." If you are always dwelling on the things of the past, it is just a sign of timidity. ”

In the shrub-covered savannah hills, the rebel camp still lies peacefully on the lush hillside. Under the bright sun, a pleasant breeze blows the surrounding green leaves, making a magnificent sound like the rustle of the tide, which contains a different kind of tranquility in the sound.

In the old tent in the center of the camp, the High Priest of Cusport, the god of order and power, opened his eyes from his sleep and was the first to exclaim, "Your spell is much more fun than the 'Dream Technique'." People can only make a false illusion in other people's sleep, but your trick is to enter the dream world yourself and simulate a simulacrum in other people's reality. It's so much fun. I wonder if you can give me some advice?"

His eyes were half-open and half-closed, and Dong Hezi, who seemed to be closing his eyes to recuperate, replied lightly: "It's okay too." However~~ I want to know about the history of the development of your church, I wonder if I can teach me?" The other party was thinking about it, and the big leader of the elemental scholars next to him suddenly interrupted: "The things in the city are the most critical now! Did they say yes to you this time?"

The senior priest sat up with a smile on his face and replied, "They said that they could consider it, and the key was to communicate with their masters, that is, those dukes and marquises. Everyone can discuss the big things together before they can decide. Hmph~~ I'm afraid they're stalling to see if we can stop this attack!"

Hearing this, the big leader snorted coldly: "They are this kind of virtue of looking forward and looking backwards! They have no courage or courage at all, no wonder they have been ruled by a group of pigtails and pigtails for hundreds of years. Leave them alone, let's make our own plans first. Since they have ceded the initiative to us, it is only natural that we will be trampled on in the future! Hmph! Just in time to accumulate financial and material resources!" Turning back to the gray-haired middle-aged official, he instructed: "Have you drawn up your list? Once the city is broken this time, we must destroy a single possible resistance force at the first opportunity! At the same time, we must also kill some of the wall grass to deter those who are half-hearted. ”

The middle-aged official immediately took out a large volume of documents, handed it over respectfully, and said: "All are written, the first half is the people who must be killed, the second half is the people who must be kept, their official positions, residences and some important social relations are clearly written, please take a look." ”

The big leader of the elemental scholars took a look at it, and the first person to kill was actually the official who had just obtained the position of warehouse! He was also an important person involved in the negotiation and alliance this time! The big leader immediately frowned and asked sternly, "Why do you have to kill him?" He has a close relationship with the local nobles everywhere!"
