After Becoming The Tyrant - Chapter 159
The king’s writ, half speech and half order, was arranged to spread to Legrand as quickly as possible.
The public’s boiling discontent was finally suppressed. As everyone knows, general Hearn was the most important general of the king. He had planned to assassinate the king, but the king forgiven him and appointed him as his first general. Since then, the king’s attention to general Sheen has been quite remarkable, not only in the northern rebellion appointed him as the commander of the Chinese army, but also in the beginning of this battle, roglan gave him the decision-making power of the southeast defense.
Even, someone joked in private that if general sheen didn’t have the silver hair and blue eyes of the rose family, it really made people suspect that general sheen was another brother of the king, otherwise how could the king love him so much.
At present, general Hearn’s cowardice led to the occupation of the southeast coast by the holy army, which undoubtedly angered the king.
The pursuit of posts, titles and territories, these punishments, convey the king’s fury and determination – in the face of the life of the people of Legrand, even if he is the most important general, he will not be biased.
Even the king’s most important generals were punished so harshly that he could be nailed to the pillar of shame. General Hearn, who led to the fall of the southeast coast, had died in the hands of the people of bubas, and the public anger had finally subsided.
In the public writ, the king said, “in the name of the king of Legrand, I ask all the people of Legrand, no matter where you are, to fight against the enemies who invade their homes to the end. The future of Legrand is in the hands of all of us. “In the face of the national disaster, it has played a call for all of us.
All over the country, inspired by “the future of Legrand is in our hands”, even half of the children have taken up the crude weapons.
One of the important reasons why general Hearn ordered the rosary to withdraw from bubas, which led to the occupation of the southeast coast by the holy army on the sea, caused such widespread and strong anger was that it made the people of Legrand clearly see what fate they would face if the war failed this time.
They were slaughtered, plundered and enslaved. From then on, they had no place to live and no dignity.
The advance of the sea holy army was blocked by the Keya mountains and the fortresses of Keya state. And when, as before, they scattered their forces to the cities and towns to collect and plunder materials for themselves, they found that all the people in this country were crazy.
In the sacred army of the sea, will Duan, the leader of the abyss alliance countries, recorded the changes during this period in his personal diary. At the end of summer, they are still immersed in their own victory, and when autumn comes, they already feel the chill of the country on their blade.
“…… We were towed in the southeast, and our soldiers could hardly disperse when they were collecting and scraping. Because once a soldier is left alone Those mobs will attack us. Although their weapons are clumsy and have no skill, they don’t grudge their own lives. ”
“Some of our soldiers have started to panic. Do we think that soldiers are really devout people fighting for the glory of the Lord? Lord! Don’t we know what they are? How many poor people, bankrupts, thieves and robbers are there in the holy Army… ”
“They didn’t come to put the statue on the rose, they came here just to get rich. If you don’t even have a life, what’s the use of more money? ”
“We have to find a way out of this.”
After writing this diary, a few days later, will Duan was leading the soldiers to collect local food and grass when he was attacked by a team armed by the townspeople.
The most disturbing thing is that among the attackers, a boy who has not yet reached the chest of an adult is holding the handle of the broken sword tightly when he is caught, and his eyes are no longer children at all.
“My father died, my brother died, so I took their sword.”
That’s what the boy said just before he died.
War was supposed to be a stage for adults, but now children have also picked up their guns and knives.
As king pullland of Legrand said in his open letter:
traitors shall die and the whole nation shall fight.
It’s a real national fight.
In the southeast coast, compared with the whole territory of Legrand, this section is like a sealed territory. Every piece of land is watered with blood.
“No doubt.”
When he captured kosiya harbor, he ordered the soldiers to slaughter the city, and he also raised his glass and cried “cheers”. That night, with trembling hands, he wrote such a line in his diary:
“this country is crazy.”
………………
Summer after autumn, should be the harvest season, the wind blowing through the open field.
When the holy army of Holy Land landed, the main force of Legrand also arrived at the predetermined front in the middle of China. The two armies were about to confront each other, and a frontal battle was imminent.
In the battle Council room in Jolin County, the staff are squabbling fiercely. Unlike in the past, it is not only the senior generals who stand in the battle Council room. In the words of a veteran, it means that “people who participate in the discussion of war decisions seem to do everything.”.This sentence is a little exaggerated, but it’s basically right.
With the king’s permission, the people who can participate in the discussion are not only the general, but also the head of the spy organization, the minister in charge of the transportation department of Legrand previously established by the king, the member of the local people’s Committee commonly known as “Black Wing”, the insane military designer, and the scientist of the Royal College full of figures It’s a strange thing for traditional generals.
But their king used to be a tyrant, and now his willful temper doesn’t seem to have changed much.
In this war, the king forced his officers to accept a new model of military plan by means of high pressure. In the past, there were too many temporary intentions after the war. This time, the king was determined to ask his officers to work out different operational plans in theory for each war they were about to face, and these operational plans also took into account many factors.
He even asked the accompanying mathematicians of the Royal College to do their best to calculate the loss and distribution of their supplies and weapons
In previous wars, it can be said that most of the time, the military did not have the concept of “logistics system”, which was often a muddle headed account. This time, the group of mathematicians and Quartermaster officers are using their hair, trying their best to sort out the mess. [1]
may the soul of Legrand bless these poor people and hope that they will not be tortured to death and want to jump the wall.
However, they are not used to it, but there are few complaints.
Because the king stayed with them all the time and spent one sleepless night after another beside the battle map.
Although the king’s arrangement had a tyrant’s arbitrariness, he didn’t seem to want to be a tyrant from beginning to end.
Except for some critical and unexpected moments, he will make the most decisive decision in an irrefutable manner, which is often proved to be correct after the decision, or at least to be able to obtain the maximum benefit. At other times, he is more likely to play a role of listening to many ideas and then giving his own comments and opinions.
His military talent is particularly amazing, and he can often point out the biggest loopholes in every seemingly “perfect” combat plan.
In general, a monarch who is too young often gets no preferential treatment from experienced veterans. Although they must maintain the superficial respect, it can’t stop the general from doubting and worrying in private. If a monarch who is too young wants to establish his own prestige, there is no better choice than to lead the army to an exciting victory. Who can guarantee that every monarch is an outstanding militarist?
But the king is not among them.
Kings are like Henry the mad king, Charlie The Lion King, William III Like them, they have outstanding military talent at a young age. The counterattack outside tru, the final sound of the change of rose, the backwater battle outside banks, and the perfect flat land of northern rebellion Apart from his monarchy, this series of brilliant achievements is enough to make any general respect him.
Sometimes, the generals can’t help wondering whether the soul of the whole rose family is handed down from generation to generation. Throughout the epic of the king of the rose family, there are many monarchs who have made outstanding achievements at a young age. The generals of other countries may envy the generals of Legrand when they face the poor monarchs who have inflated their confidence and practical ability.
Veterans are keen to listen to the king’s opinions, and they are happy that their opinions can be listened to by the king in a serious manner – although he may not adopt them.
“I think the Templars should go through the plain of kava. They march faster than the eternal Legion…”
“But Pope theold is here, and the Templars are the best troops. They can’t leave the Pope’s neighborhood…”
The war room was a mess.
Standing in front of the battle map, the king put his hands on the table and looked at the map without saying a word.
After they succeeded in destroying the main force of the eternal Knight Order and the vanguard of the holy army, the king took over several cities which were controlled by the holy army. This was a great help to the beginning of the frontal war. Even though West alder wanted to make a quick decision, he had to slow down even if he lost Yorkshire, which was a unique place to be stationed.
The significance of Jolin county to the holy army is that it is the junction of the tributary of DOMA and the main river. With Jolin County, the holy army can transport supplies by water. This is the safest transport route in the case of a foreign war like Legrand.
But now, the transportation line was blocked by the king ahead of time.
Now, the key for them is to determine where Pope theold’s first big move will fall after landing in Legrand.
