That’s Hilarious - Chapter 166
“This is very riding and cutting novels ( to find the latest chapter!
Although what Duke Osborn said was all the truth, everyone’s image of the First Empire has been fixed, and it cannot be overturned in a few words.
Even if that person is a noble, even a duke with a higher title in the northern land will not do.
Although most of the soldiers admitted to receiving the favor of the First Empire, because it did leave a sufficiently reliable support for everyone present.
But this does not completely veto the brutality of the First Empire’s conscription of corvée, and the last emperor of the First Empire considered himself a sinner.
If Eric wasn’t a duke, no, even just a baron, lord knight, they’d be happy to tell him what a man’s iron fist is with the weapon in his hand.
Or the iron fist of ‘ignorance’.
“Silent.”
For such a rebuttal, Duke Osborn had long expected, and he continued after they were all quiet.
“This is about another period of history, which is still in the period of human development, and it is also the most glorious period of human beings.
At that time, we were not afraid of any race. As long as we dared to cause trouble for us humans, no matter what race we were, we would be rewarded with a sword.
When it comes to this, I see that everyone is excited, but these are things that everyone knows, so I won’t talk about it, I will talk about the situation at the civilian level at that time.
Thinking back to the early days of the First Empire, how many human races were hungry, yellow-faced and skinny, were they robbed by imperial soldiers? Or was he subjected to heavier taxes?
No, not at all, at that time they were deeply enslaved and exploited by aliens.
Even if the emperor wants to collect taxes, they need to have it.
They just saw the hope of driving away the alien race, so that their descendants could no longer be harmed by the alien race and their own bodies.
For this they can go to eat grass roots and bark.
How many human races with yellow skin and thin skin, they are holding leaked weapons. As for the armor, it is something they can’t even think about. Even the emperor of the empire has only a leather armor.
It is such soldiers who fought **** battles in the front, just to compete for a larger and broader living space for human beings. They are so determined that they can continue to fight on an empty stomach.
Can you do it? You can’t, this will only make you mutiny and think it’s unfair treatment.
Yes, you are not wrong, because the two situations are completely different.
Because of them, you live in an era of abundant material, and you can choose to pick and choose.
It is also officially because of this that even if you are hungry, you must feed the imperial soldiers, and even if you don’t have a house to live in, you must let the imperial soldiers live there.
This kind of thing abounds, dare to ask the imperial soldiers to receive this favor and dare to fight without their lives? They dare not.
The unprecedented unity and nobility deeply shocked everyone with the same yellow face and thin skin, whether they were civilians or soldiers.
The elderly father also sent away the last adult child in the family, the frail wife, and took care of the frail child and the elderly parents alone.
One person undertakes everything, including but not limited to, washing, cooking, farming, and educating children, but they have no complaints.
Because the new empire, like the bright sun, illuminates something called hope.
Feeling the hard work and hard work of the civilians of the Empire, the long supply line has collapsed the logistics.
At this juncture, Emperor Huber Abbas gave up his efforts to destroy the orcs and chose to stop at the North Wind Fortress.
Of course, there are also strategic considerations in this, and the sadness of rabbit death and fox may arouse the vigilance of other aliens.
This will bring destruction to this seemingly powerful empire that is actually strong outside and in the middle. Their foundation is too shallow.
Most of the second generation children who grew up with their mothers heard that the emperor of the empire, Hubble Abbas, had recruited soldiers from all over the world to build roads, in order to penetrate the human world.
So that the imperial army can reach everywhere faster, in order to achieve the purpose of shocking and even preventing aliens.
It is also for the prosperity of commerce and commodities, as well as the purpose of support for all parties affected by disasters.
At the same time, the order to build the Four Winds Fortress to protect the human world.
Of course you can think that the emperor is very happy, because only they can know this, but you also can’t deny what they have done for mankind.
More importantly, they did not conscript corvés.
So where did those civilians come from?
Encouraged by their elderly mother, they left their hometown and still embarked on the road of supporting the emperor’s construction, because they knew it would be beneficial to them.
When the empire was first established, everyone knew that the empire did not have excess wealth and food, because the empire did not collect any taxes.
It only depends on the soldiers’ spontaneous reclamation, cultivation, and grain harvesting to achieve self-sufficiency.
Even if the empire could not pay any wages and could only provide very little food, the human races from all over the place resolutely joined the ranks of the construction.
They know that this is the land that their fathers exchanged for their blood. Their fathers can throw their blood for them, and they can also sacrifice their lives for a better life for their offspring.
Although the local civilians contributed food at home, there are still many people who died of exhaustion or starvation during the construction, just to give us a peaceful and prosperous age.
In order to prevent the emperor from knowing and preventing them from continuing to participate in the construction, they told their fellow villagers early to bury theirs under the road and city walls after they died.
The road you walk under your feet every day, and the barrier of this human being, the North Wind Fortress of the Four Winds Fortress, how many blood and bones of heroic souls are buried in it.
As the project continued and the casualties increased, the Emperor finally found out about it, and he directly ordered the soldiers to drive the civilians home, but not to harm their orders.
It’s just that they can’t be hurt, so how can they stop it? This order ended without a hitch. For this reason, the emperor personally took the family members to participate in this construction boom.
He also ordered all places to register those who contributed to the entire human ancestor.
Among them, most of the registered names are ‘William from XX family in XX village. ’ and people with the same name and surname from every village, every family.
In order to distinguish, the place name, village name and mother’s name had to be added in front of them. Even so, there are still tens of thousands of people with the same name.
Their nameplates are enshrined in the Imperial Valhalla in the imperial city, together with their fathers, and have been enshrined by Abbas for generations.
Therefore, the emperor of the empire issued an order that the dragons of the Abbas family must not attack the human race, and locked them in the dragon’s nest in the dark imperial city.
I really like the words of the first emperor of the First Empire, that is: ‘There has never been a savior, I am not, not any one of the Abbas family.
The only people we can rely on are our people, that is, human beings! ’
This is a piece of history that has been erased, even in the North, under the rule of the Osborn family, this period has also been deliberately erased.
Why? Because the Osborn family remembered the duties of human subjects, remembered the words of the last emperor of the empire, for the sake of the righteousness of the human race, and in order to prevent the orcs from taking advantage.
In order to eliminate the suspicions of the Rhode family and avoid unnecessary human introversion, we can only choose to do this.
The current imperial city is the previous imperial city. I think everyone knows this very well. Have you ever seen an imperial city unattainable, or have you seen a palace so expensive?
Even the current height of 8 meters was built by the Rhodes family, and the current palace was also expanded by the Rhodes family.
In such a simple and rudimentary imperial city and palace, you still believe in the brutality of the First Empire, which is simply beyond stupid.
Have you ever seen the Imperial Valhalla? The Rhodes have destroyed it for their stable rule.
It’s just that he destroyed not only the history of the First Empire, but also took away the unyielding backbone of mankind, all for his own selfish desires.
In the beginning, the people of the Osborn family could still talk to the old people in the territory, but after the death of the older generation, they could no longer speak these things out of their mouths.
Not only that, but even their descendants can’t know.
Have you ever known, as the patriarch of the Osborn family, what it feels like to watch the people in the territory slander a noble emperor?
What does it feel like to watch your young child slander a noble emperor?
What is it that supports us until now? I believe that everyone already has their own answers, no need to say them.
All the families in the north must have records of these things. If you don’t trust the Osborn family, you can choose to ask your lord to verify this.
What I tell you today is not to lead you to avenge the First Empire, but to pass on the human spirit. “
The piece of history that Duke Osborne revealed was beyond their expectations. No, it could even be said that this kind of thing was close to myths and legends, which made them uncomfortable and unbelievable.
They knew the suffering of human beings at that time, because they were surrounded by various alien races, they did not produce, and completely regarded human beings as cattle and sheep in captivity.
When they need food, they will directly wave their soldiers to grab it, or they will bring their soldiers here to vent when they are unhappy.
They recognized the merits of the first emperor of the First Empire, and at the same time remembered that both the official road that penetrated the human world and the Four Winds Fortress were indeed built at that time.
That is to say, as the last emperor of the empire, over the years, even the imperial city and the palace have not undergone any expansion, but have been repaired at most.
Such a simple scam has been deceiving them for so many years.
Morality tells them they should be ashamed, but they just show great confusion.
They also need more time to digest these knowledgeable facts.
Only Roland knew that this was the scary part of preconceived notions.
Although sometimes it is possible to recognize the problem, but this impression is very stubborn, and it will not be easy to change after realizing it, and it will find an excuse to justify it.
What’s more, this is an environment where everyone thinks so.
One’s justice is not justice.
Ten people, a hundred people, ten thousand people… When the more people agree, it becomes justice, the justice affirmed by the general public.
Knowing these two words can be said to be completely played by the four kingdoms.
The Rhodes family even demolished the Hall of Valor in the Empire. Perhaps their ancestors were among them. Such a thing was unacceptable to them.
But they still have some doubts. The human beings at that time were so united that they felt terrible, completely incomprehensible, or beyond their current cognition.
To this end, they asked one after another, hoping that their lord could give them an accurate answer.
Fortunately, Duke Osborn has long considered this situation and invited all those nobles to the city wall.
Except for the emerging nobleman Roland, the other nobles gave the soldiers an accurate answer, that is, it happened.
After learning that this was indeed the case, the soldiers burst into even greater enthusiasm for fighting.
They even fantasized about completing the unfinished work of their ancestors, smashing out of the Northwind Fortress, and exterminating the orcs who had been threatening them.
However, they were stopped by Duke Osborn. Although they can add a lot of combat power by relying on blood and courage, there is still a big gap between them and the number of orcs.
Although their soldiers were stronger than those of the First Empire, the armor was also stronger.
But they didn’t have the help of dragons, and they didn’t have such a firm will.
Material abundance makes them physically stronger, but spiritually weaker.
Nor does it have the personal valour of Emperor Huber Abbas, and his powerful companions who espouse his side.
After reaching the later stage, when they grew up, they could kill the enemy and escape with just over a dozen of them.
It can be said that wherever the flag passes, the enemy flees, just thinking about that kind of momentum makes people’s blood boil.
Duke Osborn had been observing Roland when he said this, and although he was moved, he didn’t reveal too many other emotions.
This made him decide to continue to have a good talk with Earl Roland, of course not about the righteousness, but about the descendants of the Osborn family.
After dispersing the army, Duke Osborne called Roland and his companions and led them to the council hall.
After everyone was seated, “Count Roland, I still have something to get rid of you, and I also have some ancient books that need to be handed over to you.”
“Let’s talk first and see if I can do it.”
Roland did not agree to Duke Osborn’s words immediately, although today’s story shocked his heart.
He has this ability, but to take on such a responsibility, just thinking about it makes him feel a little hard to breathe.
“It’s like this, the adult men and women of the Osborn family over the age of 12 have come to Northwind Fortress, and if things don’t work, we are ready to die here.
Of course, it’s just to awaken the will of resistance in the hearts of the common people. Although I don’t know if this can be done, this is our duty, and it doesn’t matter if it’s worth it.
I have asked Baron Lyon to send all the youngest sons of the family to your territory, I hope you can take good care of them.
There are also some ancient books that need to be handed over to you~www.mtlnovel.com~ I have already copied them all, there are a lot of them, and I hope you will pass them on. “
Duke Osborn didn’t care about Roland’s tone, but just like the script, he got rid of these things to Roland, obviously the previous things had consumed him too much emotion.
“Why choose me? Forget it, when I didn’t ask. I agreed to this matter. If there is nothing else, I will leave.”
Roland knew very well why Duke Osborn chose him, and he also knew the decision of the Osborn family, which made him feel a different kind of discomfort in his heart.
In contrast, he was not ready to die in battle. Facing people with noble sentiments, most people would unconsciously feel ashamed.
In the end, Roland left slightly embarrassed.
