Chapter 131 Rumors of the Royal Capital
"The barbarians are coming!"

Under the continuous harassment of the barbarians in the past few days, various rumors have appeared in the city of Saint-Dantier. The family members ran away. In short, people in the capital are in a state of panic. Everyone is buying food. This has also caused prices to skyrocket. Barley flour and other grains have risen to sky-high prices.

Many buildings in the capital were on fire, and bows, arrows and stones were continuously shot into the city, coupled with the frequent mobilization of soldiers, this further proved the seriousness of the situation. Well-connected nobles and wealthy citizens have already begun to prepare their wealth and prepare to flee The royal capital, but the subsequent decree of the palace closed the city gates, dispelling the idea of ​​these people escaping.

Now the more than ten city gates of the capital are crowded with people. They complain and curse the inaction of the soldiers. The guards wave their whips impatiently, but to no avail. An army came to drive out the people.

The barbarian cavalry outside the city made the imperial guards feel a headache. These barbarians came and went without a trace, and the time of appearance was very irregular. Sometimes Zheng Xiang, who was sleeping at night, was awakened by the alarm bell, and had to wear armor and take a good weapon to the city wall. Assemble, as soon as they assembled, they found that the barbarian cavalry just shot a few arrows and ran away. When they opened the city gate and chased them, they couldn't even see their shadows. It was really annoying.

"What do these damn barbarians want to do!"

Every soldier thinks this way, but because it concerns the barbarians, he is still helplessly armed to deal with it every time. After a few days, it is really exhausting.

In the panic-stricken capital, apart from the news of the barbarians attacking the city, there is a rumor that seems very special.

"His Royal Highness is coming back!"

"His Royal Highness Julian has won a great victory in Willenburg!"

I don't know where this news came from. Now the news that the second prince Julian led an army of [-] to defeat the barbarian army of hundreds of thousands has spread throughout the capital.

The people may not know what His Highness the Prince looks like, nor where Willenburg is, but they know the brutality and bravery of the barbarians, and even the elite of the regent will never return. Cheer up everyone, as if the man-eating devil-like barbarians are not invincible, our prince has won a big victory!It was even rumored that His Royal Highness killed all the barbarian captives, and piled up a whole city with their heads!

In the streets and alleys, deep in the palace, people were whispering in every corner. Julian's glorious deeds, under the shadow of the barbarian army, seemed so inspiring that the rumors became more and more outrageous. Several versions have appeared, and even There is a folk tale in which a prince was blessed by the goddess of life and defeated the evil god Zoritan.

Unlike the city of Saint-Dantier, which is full of clouds of war, the rock-solid team is talking and laughing, and the atmosphere is particularly relaxed.

Everyone rode their horses and marched forward at a constant speed. Lin Yiyi fell asleep on the pony horse tired and sleepy. When Zhao Ziyu sneezed, the girl was shocked. She thought the barbarians were coming again, and she was just about to dig He shot the arrow but forgot that he was riding a horse, and fell to the ground with an ah.

Zhao Ziyu touched his nose, laughed loudly and said, "I can fall asleep even on a horse, this is the first time I've seen it!"

Shi Zhengyang got off the horse and lifted the disheveled Lin Yiyi, "Fortunately, the pony is docile. If you were an army horse, you would definitely be trampled by the horse's hooves. Broken arms and legs are easy. If you step on the chest, your life will be gone." !"

Lin Yiyi patted the dirt on her body, and lamented: "Why is this dungeon riding a horse all the time? Have I ridden half the world! The thighs are worn out a few layers! And it's so boring, let some barbarians do some activities Muscles are fine too!"

Mu Lan also smiled: "According to Julian, we will reach the capital in another 20 days at this speed."

"It will take another 20 days!" Lin Yiyi looked like she would rather die, "Lan Lan, why don't you let me take the barbarian prisoners to the capital! The march of the large army is too slow!"

"You can't control so many soldiers. How can a little girl listen to you?" Shi Zhengyang smiled and shook his head, "Shen Wei is the best choice. He has military experience and he performed very well in Willenburg before. Those who The War Supervisor was trained by me and Shen Wei, and with him and those War Supervisors, the barbarian captives can be controlled."

Lin Yiyi pursed her lips, but unexpectedly she did not refute. Shi Zhengyang turned to Mu Lan and asked, "Shen Wei reported to me through the radio that he brought barbarian captives to harass the capital according to your plan, and made a big mess." Come on, what are you going to do next?"

"Tell Shen Wei not to stop, but be extra careful and don't get caught." Mu Lan pondered, "And those spies who have been bribed must also step up their efforts. Before our main force reaches the capital, I hope Public opinion can develop at the pace I want."

It was Mu Lan who arranged the barbarian cavalry that made people panic in the capital, and all kinds of rumors that arose in the city were also her plan. Her purpose was to fight a public opinion war in the city of Saint-Dantier.

According to the trend of the plot, the duel between Julian and the Regent Drahi is unavoidable. Facing the dominant barbarian camp, she hopes that this duel will be as soon as possible. In Mu Lan's plan, the royal capital Shengdan The city of Tyre can only have one ruler, and then they will be considered to have mastered the "power". Only by combining the power of Willenburg and the capital can they have the hope of countering the barbarians of Zhuolitan.
Drag the rotten king who is immersed in singing and dancing into the war in advance, so that the people will realize the urgency of the current situation, the war is just around the corner, the usurper Drahi is incompetent, and our hero, Noswar's orthodox His successor, His Royal Highness Julian, returned to the capital. What an exciting scene this is.

"The fun has just begun."

"What?" Lin Yiyi didn't hear clearly and looked at Mu Lan in confusion.

A strange brilliance flashed in her cold eyes, Lin Yiyi knew that she was planning something again when she saw Mu Lan's eyes like this, and she couldn't help thinking about which unlucky ghost was going to be tricked again.

The public opinion in Saint-Dantier City is constantly fermenting. Song Yu has already smelled some kind of conspiracy and suggested that the regent send someone to control public opinion. However, the houses on fire and the collapsed church really happened. It is difficult to control, no matter how much you issue notices and hunt down rumorers, it will not help. The imperial guards are obedient to the outside world but tough on the inside, which has aroused dissatisfaction among the people.

"Our relatives have died, and the capital has also been attacked. Instead of defending your home and country, you are busy attacking dissidents!"

The intelligence personnel who sneaked into the capital were all specially trained and extremely capable of instigating. They included the elite scouts of Willenburg and the displaced refugees who lost their loved ones. These two people were firmly bound by honor status and Dius gold coins. Under Julian's command, and the people of the capital are frightened, they don't need to be deliberately guided at all, and rumors of dissatisfaction and complaints quickly spread in the city.
