Who taught him to restore the country like this

Chapter 55: Everyone betrayed the country together

Dozens of soldiers volunteered.

"I come."

After saying that, they carefully observed Lawrence's expression, and were relieved to see that Lawrence was not angry.

"very good."

Ron walked forward and slowly passed in front of these soldiers who had stepped forward on their own initiative. His eyes showed undisguised admiration when he looked at them.

After confirming that there were no people trying to take advantage of the situation, he said, "You are true warriors. As the first group of people who dared to take that step, you will be remembered by history."

Dozens of soldiers were filled with excitement after hearing these words.

Those who hesitated and failed to stand up were filled with regret.

People in this world attach great importance to reputation; some even regard reputation as more important than life.

Under Ron's command, the soldiers surrounded the villagers from all sides and returned the way they came.

Lawrence watched them go without blinking.

140 meters...

150 meters...

160 meters...

Only after he saw that everyone was within 150 meters of Ron and nothing had happened did he dare to breathe a sigh of relief.

There were no accidents this time.

The soldiers were all genuine traitors.

Lawrence smiled bitterly in his heart, not knowing whether he should be happy or sad.

After sending the villagers away, Ron continued on with the rest of the people.

About five kilometers along the Komoni border, they found another village.

Then came another long search and rescue period.

By the time they rescued all the villagers, it was already dark.

Ron looked at the remaining soldiers and was about to dispatch dozens more soldiers to escort the villagers back to Kassel.

Lawrence suddenly spoke up, "Your Majesty, Ron, you and the soldiers have been toiling for several days and haven't had a good rest. You should go back and rest early today."

Ron looked at him in surprise: "Lawrence, this doesn't sound like something you would say."

Lawrence was silent.

If the current efficiency could save the Kingdom of Orrantia, he would have no complaints even if he had to work for a sleepless week.

But... the current efficiency is too slow.

If we continue at this pace, we won’t be able to save the Comoni Fortress in a month, let alone two weeks, let alone the entire Kingdom of Orrantia.

He understood that this was his own problem.

Ron's previous promise to resolve the Kingdom of Orrantia's predicament within two weeks was based on the mobilization of the entire population of Cassel.

But now, Ron can only mobilize a few hundred people. How can he complete his plan as expected?

As the lord of Cassel, Lawrence knew that he could no longer avoid this matter and he had to make a decision immediately.

Otherwise, the Kingdom of Orrantia will perish in his hands.

He decided that after returning today, he would immediately post a notice to mobilize all the people of Kassel to commit treason!

Treason is their only way out, as it can save the Kingdom of Orrantia.

Only when more people get involved can they place people to garrison the territory along the way and advance into the heart of Komoni from multiple directions, without wasting time on transporting supplies back and forth every day.

The rescued people can stay where they are and they just need to keep moving forward.

At this rate, they could capture Komoni in three days at most. They would then absorb Komoni's people and continue advancing in all directions.

Advance along the way and supply the mobilized personnel along the way.

If everything goes according to plan, the Kingdom of Orrantia will be able to completely escape the Eternal Illusion in about two weeks.

"Ok."

Seeing Lawrence remain silent for a long time, Ron pinched his brows and compromised, "We've rescued people from two villages today, which is quite a feat. You've been running around with me these past few days and haven't had much time to rest. I appreciate your hard work. Go back and rest early today."

The soldiers noticed the eagerness to achieve success that was inadvertently revealed between Ron's eyebrows, and their hearts ached slightly.

The people who helped them didn't complain about being tired, but they themselves were complaining about being tired. What kind of talk was that? They looked at Lawrence with some anger, but Lawrence remained unmoved.

Humph! You are tired, but we are not!

They turned to look at Ron, and were about to express their willingness to continue moving forward with Ron.

Ron turned around and walked back, but suddenly he seemed to step on empty air, and he staggered and almost fell.

"Your Majesty Ron."

The soldiers rushed forward.

"I'm fine." Ron leaned his arms against the wall of the cabin and waved his hands gently to indicate that he was fine.

After resting for a while, he withdrew his arms from the wall and continued walking back.

The soldiers noticed his somewhat unsteady steps and immediately fell silent with solemn expressions.

If Ron hadn't almost collapsed from exhaustion just now, they wouldn't have noticed that Ron looked even more tired than them.

The thick dark circles under his eyes clearly showed that he didn't get enough rest last night.

It can be imagined that when they fell asleep peacefully last night, His Majesty Ron was still tossing and turning, thinking about his next move.

They suddenly understood Lawrence's intention.

They don't need to rest, but His Majesty Ron must have a good rest, otherwise His Majesty Ron will be exhausted and no matter how much they do, it will be useless.

The soldier looked at Lawrence apologetically.

I'm sorry, Lord Lawrence, we wronged you. We only thought about ourselves and deserved to die.

Lawrence:? ? ?

I didn't think about it that much.

Well, I deserve to die too.

……

When we returned to Kassel, it was already completely dark and the full moon was hanging high in the sky.

The gate of Kassel.

"Your Majesty Ron, please take care of yourself." The soldiers respectfully escorted him to the carriage with concern.

Ron nodded slightly at them and then stepped into the carriage.

The carriage drove out.

The soldiers stood still and watched the carriage go away.

This scene made Lawrence feel very uncomfortable.

Even when he was a lord, he had never seen these soldiers care about him so much.

He shook his head. Now was not the time to care about such things. He had to draft a notice and distribute it immediately, and do ideological work for the city residents overnight.

……

On the carriage.

Beatrice looked at Ron, who had a tired face and closed his eyes to rest. After hesitating for a moment, she slowly leaned over, put her soft hands on Ron's shoulders, and gently kneaded them.

"Do you know how to massage?"

Feeling the perfect strength on his shoulder, Ron asked.

"Ah."

Beatrice responded softly.

There was no more conversation between the two after that.

Ron leaned back in his seat, closed his eyes, and enjoyed the massage.

As he looked at his reputation which had risen to double digits, he mentally praised himself for his superb acting skills.

It seemed that the residents who returned to the city in the morning did a lot of propaganda for him.

Of course, as the old lord of Cassel, Lawrence did not make any public statement, so the reputation he gained was only a small part after all.

Lawrence is really patient. He waited for almost a whole day before he felt anxious.

But it is not too late to wake up now. As long as Lawrence takes the lead and expresses his stance, I believe his reputation will soon reach triple digits.
