Countless noisy voices converged into a huge wave, each wave getting stronger than the last.
Military morale is available.
At this time, the middle-aged noble saw a pretty figure with purple hair not far from Ivan.
Even with the huge hat on, he could still feel the huge demonic aura.
Teammates, teammates, save me!
Faced with this look, Aura simply chose to ignore it. After all, this kind of thing had nothing to do with her.
At this time, the executioners also walked onto the stage in a line, holding sharp blades shining with cold light, and killed them one by one cleanly and neatly, letting the splattered blood stain the flag.
"The new king has been controlled by the demons, which is why he is so foolish and cruel. It's time to send troops to the capital and restore order to the world!"
"The time has come for the Supreme Being to quell the rebellion—"
"Troops, move out!!"
Fulilian (Thousand Years of Past): Chapter 72: I think the goddess still has her charm
Without using the goddess's authority, Angres took Zanze and chose the most primitive way to travel, walking on foot.
In her words, one should feel the reality of the world by taking one step at a time. If one teleports to the destination all at once, the scenery along the way will be ignored, which is a pity.
Besides, there was nothing to rush for her. As a goddess representing the emotional side, she didn't have any particularly important tasks.
In major events concerning the survival of the world, the main body is also at the forefront. Could it be that if she delays a little, Ivan will be able to unify the continent?
Humph, I'm just willful.
As for the willful nature of this goddess, Zanze, who has been with her for a few days, is very touched by her, like now.
When she took a short rest in the forest, Angelis held her in her arms like a rag doll, and sucked on the back of her head like a cat slave who had caught a kitten that couldn't resist.
"Shashas! What a lovely smell, little Zanzeh. How do you take care of your hair?"
"..."
Zanze had a blank expression on his face and didn't want to talk.
She just wanted this aunt who didn't have the demeanor of a god to be a little more normal.
"Huh? It's raining. Let's keep going. There's a village not far ahead. Let's go take a look."
The drizzle was like silk, fluttering down and beginning to weave a hazy gauze on the ground. Crystal clear water droplets hung on the leaves, swaying gently with the breeze. The fields in the distance were also shrouded in mist and rain, blurring the boundaries.
Angris and Zanze walked slowly, stepping on the wet ground, splashing tiny water droplets.
"Quack quack—"
A large flock of crows circled over the plain not far away, breaking the poetic rain scene.
The breeze also brought some noises of fighting and shouting, causing Angris to frown slightly. "Another human civil war! It really ruined my good mood."
"Do you hate this kind of war?"
"Of course I hate it. Although I know that fighting is ingrained into the instincts of human groups and individuals, and just like the fighting in nature, it is unavoidable, it is precisely because of these fights that the world is full of vitality and constantly develops to a higher level."
Angris led Zanze closer to the battlefield, and the cruel scene of fighting came into view.
"If it were just a fight between a few soldiers eager for glory, it would be fine, but civil wars among humans often implicate a large number of innocent people."
"Although fighting against the demons requires elite troops, and ordinary people can't even serve as cannon fodder, civil war is different. From 60-year-old men to 10-year-old children, they will be forcibly conscripted by the lords. There are also food and supplies requisitioned, and even women are conscripted for military service. The preparations for the war alone have torn countless families apart."
"Not to mention the terrible things that are likely to happen after a village or city is conquered by the enemy army... In short, I really hate this kind of civil war among humans."
With that, she took Zanze's hand and turned to leave. However, at that moment, a stray arrow flew towards them. Angris's eyes flashed, and with a slight raise of her hand, the arrow turned to dust in mid-air.
A small group of defeated soldiers rushed towards them. There were five of them, all wearing full body armor and riding tall horses. The armor of one of them was very fancy, and he seemed to be the leading noble.
……
Perseus is the Lord of Flower City, the Earl, who is forty-seven years old. He is one of the few people who noticed some flaws in Ivan's sword-drawing ceremony, and he probably guessed the relationship between Ivan and the king and the chief magician Volame.
So when he took office, he ordered the daughter of the Viscountess in Suiye City to try her best to make friends with this brave man, but things went against his wishes. Not only did they not make friends, they almost became enemies.
At first, he didn't feel too sorry, and was even a little annoyed at Ivan's shameless behavior of eating up the family's wealth. He just felt that he had just lost the friendship of a potential future rising star.
So he didn't take it to heart and continued to live an aristocratic life of feasting and drinking, occasionally having a banquet or a music party, and his life was so carefree.
But now he's running away in panic, and there's no trace of his usual noble demeanor.
Just now he was indeed defeated by the rebels. They were not even the main force, but just a small ragtag group of troops recruited from nearby. The entire army could not even get a decent set of armor. Relying on dung forks and hoes, and with red eyes and the momentum of tigers and wolves, they broke through his well-equipped knights.
Currently, under the cover of his personal guards, he gritted his teeth and ran towards the only way to survive... Then he met two women who seemed to be passing by, and they were even very rare elves.
If the situation wasn't critical, seeing such a beauty, Poseidon would definitely dismount and make way, showing his gentlemanly manners, and chatting with her a few words. With his charm that gets more handsome as he gets older, he would win her over... The one with brown hair seems too small, but the one with big blond waves will definitely be no problem!
Unfortunately, now is not the time.
"Get out of the way! You two lowly people—" The captain of the Royal Guard charged forward with his gun tilted, as if he would crush them into pulp if they didn't get out of the way.
"It's always like this, always like this. Can't you just let me walk around in this world peacefully?"
Angris raised her hand. Although there was no fluctuation of magical power, Zanze instinctively sensed that her hand contained an irresistible power.
But before she could launch her attack, several trip wires were pulled up from the road, causing the charging knight to fall off his horse with a wail.
The people behind hurriedly stopped their horses, but arrows with penetrating magic continued to be shot out from the woods on both sides. Soon, the remaining guards were all killed, and only the earl with the highest armor defense was still alive.
But the horse he was riding did not have such luxurious armor. It neighed a few times and then collapsed to the ground, causing Poseidon to fall awkwardly into the mud.
He quickly raised his hands and shouted: "I am a noble, I am a count! You can't kill me, I can pay money to redeem my life——"
The one who led his men in the ambush was Linton, an old hunter who came from the Land of Swords. He deliberately waited for the enemy to rush out in a relatively weak position in the army formation, and then captured them with a trap. This was an old hunter's trick.
He didn't listen to what the other party said at all. He took off his armor and clothes, tied him up, and in the angry eyes of the noble man, asked several of his men to escort him back to the rear.
Linton looked at the two female passersby again. He hadn't met Zanze before when he came to Suiye City, so he didn't recognize them, but he kindly advised: "There's a war going on nearby. It's okay for you two to encounter our rebel army, but if you encounter the kingdom army, I'm afraid you will be in danger."
Angelis had a clear awareness of her own beauty, and she had already prepared to turn against the army in front of her.
But surprisingly, although a few younger soldiers had some evil thoughts in their minds, they just glanced at a zombie with a fake wooden head next to them, and their eyes suddenly became clear.
Angris was amazed and asked, "Is the discipline of your rebel army so good?"
"Of course." Linton said proudly, "Lord Ivan has issued the highest level of military orders. You are not allowed to take a single needle or thread from innocent civilians, you are not allowed to disturb the people, and you are not allowed to trample on crops. Burning and killing people is a serious crime."
"If he gives an order, you will obey it completely? I don't believe it." Angelis turned into Lu Yu and began to question.
This made Linton frown.
"Don't challenge Lord Ivan's authority in the future. You might get embarrassed if you cause public outrage. We rebels only have one kind of people: those who obey Lord Ivan's orders. The punishment for disobeying orders is simple: transfer from a living person to a dead one."
Then he pointed to the flock of crows in the sky.
"Whether it's a merit or a fault, Master Ivan is watching."
Angris's eyes gleamed as she looked at the flock of crows, discovering that they were all connected by a magical thread from a distance.
"I see."
These are Ivan's eyes and ears, and the crows are very smart. They are implanted with counting functions to count the number of enemies killed.
Angelis waved towards the sky, "Ivan, your sister-in-law brought your daughter to see you——"
"puff!"
Linton, who was about to stop Angris's behavior, almost choked on his saliva.
What the hell? Lord Ivan is so young, how could he have such a big daughter?
One of the crows fell from the sky and landed on Linton's shoulder, looking at each other with red light in its eyes.
Through the master-servant contract, Ivan spoke in the unique hoarse voice of a crow: "Are you Celie's sister Angris? I heard her talk about you before. What's the matter with bringing Zanze here?"
"Crows speak so rudely. Can't we use parrots?" Angris complained.
But when Linton heard Ivan's words, he was struck by lightning. It turned out that he was not a joke but true!
Lord Ivan really has a daughter that big! !
He is so, so gifted, worthy of being Lord Ivan. He can easily do things that ordinary people can't do.
Ivan: “…”
Seeing Ivan remain silent, Angris continued to the main topic and said, "Very good, man, you have successfully attracted my attention. Next, I want to observe what your rebel army is doing, so I want to follow and take a look."
"what ever."
Even with his crow voice, one could tell that Ivan didn't care much about the so-called sister-in-law. "But Zanze must come to me quickly. It's safer here."
"Huh? Little Zanzhe is safest if he stays by my side, okay? Even if the evil god comes, he will be defeated!"
Zanze: “…”
You are the safest when there is danger, and when there is no danger, you are the danger!
"Where's Zanze?" Ivan asked, "What do you think? Do you want to come to me or Angris?"
As enlightened parents, we must not ignore the will of our children. If we only treat our children as puppets and manipulate them to do what we think is good, then we are really just playing games to train our numbers.
While Xanze was thinking, Angris turned his head away without moving his body or head, as if he were an eagle or a wolf.
“Choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me, choose me…”
Ouch! How terrible—
How could Zanze dare to say no? He could only choose Angris's side. "I choose to stay with my aunt. After the observation is over, we will go to your place together."
"That's great!! Love you, little Zanzawa~"
Angelis immediately looked like a victorious hen, with her chest and head puffed out, her mouth crooked with a smile.
"Alright then. Stay safe. Let's not talk about this for now. There are other battlefields elsewhere that need my micromanagement."
The crow spread its wings and took off again, apparently turning back into an ordinary familiar.
Angris looked at Linton and said, "Do you believe our identity now? What will the rebels on your side do next?"
"The main force of Flower City has been annihilated, and the remaining troops are all defeated. Next, we will conduct tasks such as recruiting surrenders and clearing out the land. You can observe at any time. How about giving you the identity of a magician?"
"can."
So Angris was incorporated into the rebel army as a magician accompanying the army. He encountered several small-scale battles along the way, especially when entering the village, the women and children there were organized to resist.
They understood the principle that soldiers passing by are like combs, so they did not dare to let the army in. Even if the leader of the rebels was a brave man who drew the holy sword, they did not dare to take the risk of placing their trust in nothing.
But after unconditionally releasing a group of prisoners belonging to the village, their attitude began to soften, and they allowed a propaganda team of about ten people to enter the village.
Faced with a group of farmers who could not read a single word, the propaganda team naturally would not use flowery rhetoric, but would keep it as simple and straightforward as possible.
"The brave are here! The world will be at peace! The brave are here, and good days will come—ordinary people's taxes will be halved, and those who join the army will have their families of up to six exempted from taxes!!!"
Just when the villagers were skeptical, the propaganda team released another bombshell: "And we'll give everyone land! Everyone gets a share!!"
"The brave are here! The world will be at peace! The brave are here, and good days will come—ordinary people's taxes will be halved, and those who join the army will have their families of up to six exempted from taxes!!!"
The propaganda team kept repeating these few words. They were extremely simple, yet as shocking as the most wonderful speech.
Although they were particularly tempted, the villagers still had some concerns because those policies sounded too good to be true.
They are afraid of being deceived.
Ivan had anticipated all of this and had prepared for it long in advance.
As night fell, the propaganda team erected a large white curtain at the entrance of the village and took out a crystal ball.
"The words of the brave Lord Ivan are naturally trustworthy. I'm sure you've all heard the rumor in Vine City about earning 20 gold coins for transporting wood from the east gate to the west gate. We have on-site records that can verify Lord Ivan's credibility."
"Please watch the VCR——"
Fulilian (Thousand Years of Past): Chapter 73: Fulilian Pulls Out a Machine Gun
Gaining the trust of the people often only requires the simplest means. After watching the whole process of Ivan Limu's trust building, the villagers have gone from being skeptical to being mostly convinced.
Afterwards, the rebels did begin distributing land, which completely convinced the villagers. Because of the heavy tax burden, countless old farmers who were ready to sell their children picked up manure forks and hoes and joined the rebels.
After experiencing several battles and enjoying the benefits brought by the military merit system, their eyes quickly turned into those of tigers and wolves.
The Wang Guo army, which had originally thought that it could quell the rebellion with great momentum, felt like it had hit a tough nut to crack. It could neither win nor retreat, and the situation suddenly came to a stalemate.
"Ah↗ trash! A bunch of trash!! Poseidon is incompetent and has humiliated the country——"
