Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

Lind remembered that he had read a farming novel about an island country in his previous life. In the novel, the protagonist, when facing political enemies, did not consolidate his power or look for weaknesses, but instead thought of assassinating them first.

It can only be said that this fits Lind's stereotype that Japanese people like violence and overthrow of their superiors.

But Lind did not approve of this strategy, and even looked down on it. Assassination was certainly acceptable, but using assassination as the main strategy was too outrageous.

Assassination can only be used as a means of overturning the table when one is at a disadvantage, because once it starts, this behavior cannot be stopped, and someone will always have to pay the price for the assassination.

It is extremely difficult to achieve a specific goal through assassination, and the final result will be far from the prediction.

And now these natives give Lind this feeling.

Someone should pay the price for this assassination.

"I'm really fine, Linde, look, my arms can already hold a sword and swing a hammer!"

Reina sat on the bed, one hand on her bandaged shoulder, while her shoulder kept driving her arm to wave.

It has to be said that due to the existence of divine arts, the surgical technology in this world is very advanced. As long as the wound is not fatal, you can just spend money to bring the person back.

Thanks to the almost unlimited holy water, the poison and plague on the stone arrows had little effect. Although the poison would make the professional enter a weak state in an instant, from now on, Lena is indeed almost fully recovered.

Knight Lars's defensive power was fully demonstrated in Rena. Although the stone arrow broke Rena's knight defense, Rena relied on her excellent physical fitness to withstand the stone arrow.

"No, you need to rest well for the next few days and listen to the nuns."

"But didn't we just attend the meeting?"

"That's why you need to rest even more."

Linde forced Reina onto the bed.

"Linde, your expression right now is a bit scary."

Hearing what Reina said, Linde was stunned for a moment, and then he relaxed.

"Sorry, I'm just a little nervous. Anyway, you have to listen to the nuns. Don't do anything else for the time being. Put the design of the magic train aside for now."

"Then a hug is not okay?"

Seeing Reina's earnest eyes, Linde had no choice but to say, "Okay, I can just draw the design, and I'll take care of the rest when I get back."

After greeting Reina, Lind left the room, put on his military cap and lowered the brim.

The guards behind him immediately followed.

"Call all military personnel and notify local officials that we are now entering war mode. The spring offensive has been brought forward."

"Yes!"

"Lucanus."

"The minister is here."

"Go accept the punishment yourself, and then come back for the meeting."

"Take orders."

Although he was punished for failing to protect properly and even had many of Lucanus's rights revoked, and even his bodyguard Linde was replaced by a member of the Lars family, Lucanus seemed unusually excited.

Before the news of the assassination spread, Lind brought the already energetic Reina to a high-level meeting, and with Lucanus' guidance, there was no chance for any rumors.

And now, Lind convened a military and political meeting to discuss serious matters.

The hall was very warm, with a decorative bonfire burning brightly, highlighting the North Wind Bear flag hanging on the wall.

Lind, wearing a black uniform and a cloak, stepped onto the podium. Below him were the leaders of the army. Although only the Third Army among the three armies was led by old Lars's White, many of the mixed soldiers below were people who had once sworn allegiance to Lars.

Everyone knew that this was probably not a meeting but a notification. If it was just a meeting, Linde would sit with every leader on an equal footing.

Now standing on the high platform, Linde's eyes were as hard as iron, scanning everyone present.

"Doug Lars, they've already started moving."

At the meeting, as Lind began to speak, the audience suddenly fell silent.

According to Lucanus' intelligence, the assassination was related to Doug Lars, but not much.

But it doesn't matter. Even if Doug Lars is wrongly accused, he has to take the blame.

Linde needs an enemy, a clear enemy, an enemy that can unite the entire territory. As for who this enemy is, it doesn’t matter, but someone must pay the price for Lena’s injury.

"They are a bunch of people who have forgotten their ancestors, but they still covet the so-called orthodox position. They killed their own fathers, but they don't repent. They are in cahoots with the demons and want to continue killing other bloodlines of the Grand Duke. They want to take away our land, plunder our resources, and trample on our dignity!"

Lind slammed the podium heavily, and the speech left on the podium was scattered like snowflakes.

"I'm not warning you, but they have already started to do this! Their behavior is just like that of dirty rats that dare not see the light of day. The disgusting stench has exposed their ugly behavior."

"They are declaring war!"

Lucanus stepped forward at the right moment and briefly spoke about the fortifications Doug was building and some recent conflicts on the border.

"But they forgot who is the real master of the North!"

"We must not only defend our homeland, but also let them know that the fury of the North will sweep away all obstacles that stand in our way! We must let these evil rats know that there is no place for evil rats in the harsh winter of the North! We will defeat all enemies who dare to invade us, let them know that the North is never afraid of war, and we will take back the glory of the North!"

"Long live the North! Long live victory!"

The hall erupted in deafening cheers, especially from conservatives who thought the radicals were too conservative.

"Long live the North! Long live victory!"

Lind walked down the stone platform and came in front of White.

As the only old Larsian among the army leaders, White naturally understood what Lind meant.

"From now on, we will live and die together. From now on, we will make history."

Lind's voice was not loud, but his tone was firm. White's lips moved slightly, and his tall body trembled uncontrollably. This was simply impossible for a knight who could control his body precisely.

White knelt down, clasped his hands together and placed them in front of Lind.

"In your service...my liege."

Lind placed his hands on White's hands to show his acceptance of White's allegiance.

In an outsider, White seemed to see Lars, the legendary pioneer of the North.

It doesn't matter. To White, the old Lars forces and Lind's own forces are no longer important. From now on, there will be no difference between the two forces, and White will only be loyal to Lind.

"My knights, are you ready for victory?"

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

The gray-collar began to roar.
