Public trial?You deserve it too!

"Are you... are you a secret agent of the Theocracy or a member of the Imperial Intelligence Bureau!"

He asked in a low voice, his hand already on his sword.

"Oh, it's just a joke. I accidentally want to make the best use of everything. This habit is not good." Claude waved his hand, and his laughter became brighter, "It's just that if you want to kill me You are not enough, it is more or less enough to call your bodyguards."

The fat man's hand froze, and he let it go from the hilt.

"Then what are you going to do!"

"Don't worry, I don't want to go to that point. If that happens, the problem of Provence Province will end badly."

Claude looked at the [-] captives who threw away their armor and weapons, sitting together with fear and anxiety on their faces.

"I did this just to squeeze his underpants dry. As a person who has been the governor of the Empire's granary province for decades, it is estimated that he has already amassed so much money that he doesn't know his surname. It is impossible for him to put all Deli shipped it to his home, otherwise he would have been spotted by others, so he must have many secret warehouses in the province of Provence, and these warehouses have the supplies you urgently need."

The fat man was taken aback.

"To be honest, I actually lied to you. It is impossible for the people above to let you leave, let alone think that we will provide you with supplies. To be honest, the Intelligence Bureau is more important than letting you go to Wallachia to make trouble." They tend to strangle all variables that are not caused by themselves early."

Claude's words made Gorman's face change again and again, but he still didn't speak, just stared at him, motioning him to continue talking.

"But the good news is that I also lied to my superiors, so in fact they still don't know your true identity, they are just wondering if you are Wallachians controlled by the Theocracy."

"You want to keep us? Why?"

Gorman was not a naive child. The other party must have a reason for doing this. Although he didn't know what he was going to do, he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Because it's easy to use."

Claude pointed to Major General Erin's still drying head.

"No matter how I plan, after all, 2000 of you will destroy an army that is three times your size, and the whole battle process is extremely short. What is even more satisfying is that your casualties are less than a quarter, and you can still rush here with me , chasing and killing the fleeing knights of the enemy, this kind of combat power is probably no more than that of the elite of the empire."

"It's just a second-rate knight order that can't even find its own position." Gorman didn't show any joy at Claude's praise at all, "So, you think we are a good knife, so why don't you think we are a good sword?" Decided to keep us? But you are so sure that this knife will not cut on your head?"

"If you have the chance, of course you will kill me for freedom, just like you killed the special envoy to get rid of the control of the Theocracy, but I am different from him, my creed is win-win-this is a deal, since it is The transaction, of course, is for me to make an offer, and then leave it to you to decide."

"Say!"

"I can make you declare your allegiance to Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Fatty's eyes changed instantly.

"This is impossible!"

He roared so loudly that everyone around him looked at him suspiciously. Only then did Gorman realize that he had made a slip of the tongue, and he immediately turned around and left. It was only from his somewhat messy steps that he could tell that there was something in his heart. How restless.

Claude looked at Gorman's back and shook his head slightly.

"How can a fish caught in a net save itself?"

He quickly turned his attention to Julien, who was approaching.

"My lord, the people of Wallachia are not as good as the people of our Theocracy after all, don't worry, do you want to find an opportunity..."

He made a gesture of cutting grass and roots.

"Now is not an opportunity. After all, reinforcements are still far away. The most troublesome thing for me is that there is no news at all." Claude did not veto Julien's proposal, "We still have to rely on their strength, so don't touch them for now. .”

"Yes, my lord. What about the prisoners?"

"Let the rebels brought by others speed up their march, receive these weapons, and escort the 3 people back. The most important thing in Provence is food. Lock it up first, and how to deal with it will be discussed later."

"I understand." Julien hesitated for a moment, and then asked his own question, "My lord, what about the captured knights and nobles? After all, we are still short of manpower, and it is difficult for ordinary soldiers to hold them. .”

"Kill them all."

Claude urged the horse to continue forward, and dropped two words lightly.

-----------------------------------

Claude and the others successfully took over the camp and supplies of the Front Rock Knights, and they only need to stay there for two more days, waiting for the rebels to arrive.

Because the rebellion was not taken seriously at first, and the empire did not prepare for the second wave of counter-rebel forces, they still have a lot of time to wait for the escaped people to bring the news back, and then let the bureaucrats React.

In the evening, an expected guest entered Cloud's tent.

"Why, figure it out?"

Claude looked at Gorman who had calmed down with some amusement.

"This kind of transaction, I can't listen to your empty promises here, I must see Her Royal Highness."

The fat man got straight to the point. After he went back, he calmed down and felt that something was wrong.

Claude Dingtian is just an adult, even if he has the strength of a fair knight, it is impossible for him to have a high status in the intelligence bureau. For the empire, His Highness is a very useful pawn, but how can Claude It's not like someone who can influence this matter.

"That's right, after all, with this face, it's normal to be suspected." Claude was not at all unhappy, "I will bring you the princess, the man who went to your camp, he is a serious Vala As a member of the Royal Knights, you can get news about the princess from him. Of course, you can also wait for me to bring Her Royal Highness to you before making a decision, but in that case, there will be no bargaining between us There's room."

Gorman clenched his fists.

"I know that if Her Royal Highness is treated fairly, I am willing to obey the empire's arrangement and serve Her Royal Highness."

Claude chuckled.

"Mr. Gorman, do you think that after you pledge your allegiance to that Highness, your identities will be clear, and people from the empire will come to approach you, so you will no longer be at my mercy, and the deal will be out of the question up, right?"

The fat man stared at him, that's what he planned, but after hearing what Claude said, he suddenly felt uneasy.

"Then I wish you the best of luck, Mr. Gorman."

The boy yawned and stretched out his hand to see off the guest.

You have to get used to my update time (laughs)

The Wind Rises on Europa: Chapter 56

The news that the army sent by the empire to suppress the rebellion in the province of Provence was completely annihilated is still being fermented.

Although the empire is enemies all over the world, and there are frictions at the border and in various countries, but like this time, the entire knight order and [-] infantry were wiped out in the empire. It is indeed a tragic defeat that the empire has never seen in a century .

All of a sudden, the whole country was talking about it, from the nobles to the common people were discussing this matter in the streets and alleys, and this Provence rebellion finally received unprecedented attention from the imperial capital.

The instigator of all this has already led the reorganized [-] rebels, escorting [-] imperial captives back to the city of Aix.

"How about it, my lord governor, this victory is due to you."

Standing on the city wall, watching the dejected imperial soldiers line up into the city, Claude patted the shoulder of the man standing beside him affectionately, as if the two were close combat partners.

"You, you are joking. I have been captured by you long ago. This is all the result of your mighty teacher, my lord."

Provence's... oh, it should be the former governor. He apologized with a nervous face. His heart was also in a state of agitation. He didn't know what the other party meant by bringing him here at this time, and saying these words on purpose. Are you trying to humiliate yourself by speaking ironically, or is your ransom paid?

"But that's not what the military newspaper of the Imperial Army said. It's obviously the governor, you led the Lavender Knights to fight with us internally and externally, and took down the capital of Provence province in one fell swoop, and passed false information to the counter-rebel army. The opponent's careless heart made the Lavender Knights blossom, and we flanked and wiped out the Front Rock Knights."

Claude tilted his head, said with doubts, and then laughed again, the man's shoulders pinched by iron pincers hurt, forcing him to continue looking out of the city.

"Look, my lord governor, your most loyal Lavender Knights are receiving cheers from the residents under your command. They are returning home after a big victory."

The man stared dumbfounded at the deputy captain Julien leading more than 2000 people, dressed in the clothes of the Lavender Knights, entering the city in a neat queue, looking completely victorious.

"This, this, this..."

He was so trembling that he couldn't even speak, and his legs felt weak.

"Hey? Your Excellency Governor, why are you kneeling down? Get up quickly, we will never let any enemy go, and we will never forget any companions. I will remember all your achievements. When the time comes, you will be rewarded for your merits. It will lose your share."

The man couldn't get up anymore. He looked up at Claude in horror. He finally understood the other party's words. Julien belonged to the other party, and these actions of the Lavender Knights had made him cut himself off from the empire and suppress the rebels. From the moment the entire army was wiped out, he became the target of those defeated soldiers who fled back to the empire.

He has been thoroughly nailed to the pillar of shame, and the charge of "traitor" will follow him until eternal death.

And all of this came from the calculations of the devilish man in front of him.

"I think it's time for you to make your own choice—whether you decide to continue waiting for your family to collect and deliver your ransom, and let us let you go; or choose to become our true friends, and after this What about the great service of delivering a copy to your door, Your Excellency the Governor?"

Claude leaned over slightly, with an inorganic cold sarcasm in his tone.

------------------------------------------

"Your Excellency, the governor, still knows the current affairs, no, it should be a waste, right?"

"My lord has no plans to spare, and the art of attacking the mind is unmatched."

Julien complimented him from the bottom of his heart.

"Okay, General Julien, thank you for your compliment, let's get down to business, have you brought all the information you have drawn?"

"Some are still on the way. After all, the Theocracy's intelligence network in Provence is relatively large. It will inevitably take some time for some people to rush over."

Julien put a stack of information on Claude's desk.

"These are what you want. Information about all the rebel leaders who organized the rebellion in the province of Provence, and the rest can be delivered tomorrow at the latest."

"Very good. In this way, as long as they pass the screening, they can become effective combat forces. Come to me again tomorrow night, and I will give you a list. All the rebel leaders on it must be cleaned up immediately. So that our people can take the place, if not, we can annex them or disperse them, in short, when we are short of manpower, these are necessary forces and should not be wasted.”

"Yes, my lord!"

Julien saluted and left.

And Claude began to read the information carefully. He put some people's information aside, while others were recorded on a long piece of paper.

[Can those rebels really become combat power?At most, it is nothing more than cannon fodder. The real battle still depends on the strength of the knights, right? 】

"That's natural. The need for combat power is just an excuse. I never expected to rely on these militias to defeat anyone."

【Excuse?What do you want to do again? 】

"Of course it is to prepare a logical reason to live for these poor civilians in Provence."

Claude sighed and put a piece of information aside.

【I do not understand. 】

"You have to know that the original nature of the incident in Provence was a 'rebellion', that is to say, they won't get any respect, and they won't even be screened out. The butcher knife of the imperial army will attack everyone equally. , and once the blood flows, it will never stop. Massacres of villages, towns, and cities...they will not stop until the corpses of civilians in the entire province are killed, because as long as there is a word of rebellion, There is absolutely no way out for these people.”

Claude wrote down a name.

"But if I do this, the nature of this matter will change from 'spontaneous civilian rebellion' to 'The Church is grabbing strong men everywhere in the province'. This change is very important, as long as the empire feels that they are not rebellion, then the raised knives will not fall on civilians."

【Then you wrote these lists to...】

"Find those people's leaders who are really forcing the people to rebel against the government, and the scum who take advantage of the fire."

Claude sneered and filled in another name.

"I can help those civilians who just want to live to find a way out, and I can also help those who have justice in their hearts hide their identities, but this does not mean that I have to tolerate those guys who dare to call themselves civilians after changing their clothes. , Burn, kill and loot!"

PS1: Who said there is only one update (laughs)?

PS2: I saw the question about the location of the capital raised by readers and friends.

First of all, the continent of this book is basically Europe + Africa + Asia Minor Peninsula + a small piece of the Middle East and Sinai Peninsula, and the Mediterranean Sea is circled, but the Black Sea is now a forest, which is the Elf Empire, the fortress of Constantinople. The map will be written in detail later.

Speaking of the question itself, in fact, the location of Rome in this book is Berlin. After all, as the ruling center, this location is indeed very good, but I can't just use the name, so I have to change it?For example, there will be cities like Fontainebleau and Lentinium in the future. Paris and London don’t sound like Western fantasy, right (laughs).

As for why it is not called Germania, because of the name...

The center of the Europa Empire, the capital of the world - Germania.

After hearing this, the Führer called him an expert, and the painting style changed from Europa Universalis to TNO in an instant, and then this book probably went from magic to magic...

So it is called Rome, I like Rome, how can the capital of the Europa Empire not be called Rome?

As for the Theocracy, it was locked on the Apennine Peninsula, and then stretched its hands all the way to the southeast, just like the virtue of Mussolini in Steel Four (laughs). q group doctor Liuba ② 7 [-] [-] [-] [-]

The Wind Rises on Europa: Chapter 57 Chapter 57 Behind the Imperial Capital

Imperial capital, Roman Palace.

"According to the report of the remnants of the Fengyan Knights who fled back, it can be confirmed that all the Lavender Knights have rebelled. And based on the speculation of the time of the battle, in addition to the Lavender Knights, the opponent also has at least one reorganized main knights. That's why it was possible to quickly annihilate Major General Erin's headquarters with 3 people in a short period of time. Now there is no news of the [-] people who followed him, and it is speculated that they have also been wiped out. Therefore, I suspect that the Governor of Provence Province... …has also defected.”

The chief of the third branch of the Imperial Intelligence Bureau, who had finished reading the information with a pale face, was already sweating profusely, and could hardly continue to stand steadily.

"The most important thing now is to draw out all the [-] infantry in the northeast, otherwise, once the rebellious governor orders, most of them will switch to the Church, and the possibility of the empire trying to regain the province of Provence in a short period of time is very unlikely. exists!"

Siegfried, the director of the second branch, watched his heart carefully. His second branch was only in charge of the affairs of the imperial capital, while the third branch was in charge of the intelligence network in the empire. This time, there was such a big mess in the south. It would be weird if the guy could escape the guillotine.

"So, you want to tell me that under your nose, there is an entire knightly order against the imperial forces in the province of Provence, and even instigated a governor at the same time, even bringing the entire Lavender Knightly Order, and you have no sign at all Discover?"

A calm voice came from a high place, but it made the three directors, who were sweating profusely, kneel down on the ground in an instant.

"The minister is guilty of death!"
