Leoric also laughed, and said, "Mr. Mandelf, I have an inexpensive and prestigious solution. Listen carefully!"
"My minister is all ears."
Leoric said: "Let the Northern Expeditionary Army serve as a guard of honor for me! Display all kinds of trophies seized on both sides of the street! Then let the unrepentant barbarian prisoners and war criminals wear ceremonial dresses for a big parade, called They shouted long live the king! Do you think this is majestic enough?"
Old Mandelf was shocked after hearing this, and quickly said: "Enough is enough! It has been 200 years since the plateau people established their country in the swamp, and they have never had such a great prestige!"
prestige?Ah!Even if you spread gold coins all over the streets, and hang silk all over the eaves, can you have the style to let "barbarian warriors" parade through the streets?Everyone has money; but fists, not necessarily.
Therefore, everything in the wedding process should be kept simple, and money should be saved as much as possible, and unnecessary waste should be avoided.
Then, the knight in charge of public security said: "Your Majesty, with all due respect, our manpower is seriously insufficient, and the Knights have no experience in managing such a big scene. In the past, when the sacrifices were made, they were all from the king's personal guards." People are policing, but those guys..."
"Let me kill those [-] boys, you continue to talk." Leoric said.
"Yes, Your Majesty is wise! Uh, but without these people, there will be no one to manage law and order. In the past, during New Year's sacrifices, Wangbei City would be overcrowded. Nobles must come, and a noble will bring a group of knights, and One knight comes in, which means that four followers, four prostitutes and countless thieves will follow; mud legs from all over the country will drag their families to make a pilgrimage, they drag their families, there are old people, children, lame people , leprosy patients, beggars, dirtier prostitutes, and more criminals... The number of these people is four times or even ten times the population of Wangbei City! Pickpocketing, robbery, fraud, murder and all kinds of unimaginable things every day Criminal cases can make one's scalp tingle, oh, and there is even the possibility of the plague spreading, anyway, it's hard to handle, it's really hard to handle. When the old king, we worked day and night, and it was also a part of management. Every time the festival ends, we have to throw at least a hundred unknown corpses from the city, as well as piles of dossiers taller than people, but the adults never care about it, maybe ...Maybe they have something more important to do? Like tasting fresh Nanguo coconut wine." He smiled helplessly.
Although Quick had never been a magistrate, he had also participated in the maintenance of public security and knew how difficult it was.Teves and Shia also deeply agree with this. Teves said that she wanted to intervene in Wangbei City's security issues more than once, but she was hindered everywhere because she couldn't interrupt the relationship with the nobles; Shia said, I used to be a magistrate in my hometown for a while, and that was really an unbearable past.Highlight a "live more money and less money away from home, get up early in the day and work overtime late", the hardest time is worse than marching and fighting.
Quick vomited bitterness, hoping that the new king could come up with a good strategy that was different from the old king, or at least pay attention to it.
Leoric's "new official took office", naturally he would not just ignore the problem in front of him, and immediately said: "First of all, I will send a popular group to help you maintain law and order. Philip is my right-hand man, a comprehensive talent, you You can trust him with confidence."
"Oh! Thank you, Your Majesty, but I'm afraid it's not enough..."
"I will also lend you a mascot to town the venue. With him around, those rats will never dare to do anything wrong."
"Mascot?" The knight looked blank.
"Yes." Leoric said as he pulled out the peck, and said, "Crow, come out!"
A puff of black smoke rose from the pecking eyes, and the crow king who had been promoted to "superego" appeared in front of everyone.
The Crow King looked almost the same as back then, wearing a cloak, with slender arms, holding a cigarette pouch and puffing.When the ministers saw the Crow King, their faces turned pale with fright, as if they had seen a ghost.The Crow King looked at these people with contempt, and said with a disdainful smile: "Swamp rats."
Everyone has also heard the legend that Leoric used magic to enslave the soul of the Crow King, but they were still terrified when they really saw it today.Before Leoric defeated the Crow King, this barbarian king was the god of death among the plateau people, no matter whether it was nobles or ordinary people, everyone was frightened. The image of the god of death in the Nian Seven Gods sect gradually "crowed", with crow wings and arms changed, which is obviously related to this notorious barbarian king.
Leoric smiled and said, "You all know him, right?"
The knight turned pale, and said, "Yes, this... this should be the famous Crow King, right?"
Hearing this, the Crow King sneered, and said: "You guys have winks." Then he put a big thorn on the top of the table and started to smoke.
Leoric continued: "The crow king is still alive, and people are afraid of him. In this case, if you say that the crow king brings five hundred flying crow soldiers to manage public security, those thieves and thieves dare to come out to die ?"
"That must not be the case!" Let alone a thief, even this magistrate dared not do anything wrong.
Leoric smiled and said: "That's it, I will assign the Crow King to you to command, and then use it to manage law and order."
Hearing this, the famous Gale Knight suddenly showed an exaggerated expression that only comedians can put on. He opened his mouth wide, as if he wanted to eat people, then turned his head to look at Leoric, and then at the crow Wang, said: "I, this, Your Majesty! Are you asking the Crow King to be my subordinate?"
"Yes." Leoric said.
At this time, the Crow King was not happy, and said: "I am a majestic Crow King, how can I beat a little knight!?"
Leoric smiled and said, "It's not considered a big deal, it's just cooperation."
"Cooperation doesn't work either! I am the mighty Crow King..."
"Don't be shameless." Leoric said in a deep voice.
The Crow King misfired on the spot.
The Crow King remained silent, but Leoric knew that this guy would definitely not accept it. If he was released like this to maintain law and order, this guy would definitely be a moth. It must be impossible to restrain the Crow King.So Leoric decided to embolden Quick.
Leoric said, "Go, Raven, and shake hands with your fellows."
"You asked me to shake hands with a mud leg!?" The Crow King said angrily, "I am the king!"
Leoric looked at him expressionlessly, and said, "Then are you going to disobey my order?"
The Crow King knew very well the price of disobeying orders. Upon hearing this, his face darkened immediately, and he stretched out his hand, saying, "Shake hands, shake hands!"
The Crow King was born with a vision. His fingers were slender and his nails were sharp, more like claws than hands.He also used these hands to tear open the throats of beasts with his bare hands.Quick looked at the Crow King's hand, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and said, "Well, Your Majesty, I..." swallowed, as if he was a little scared.
Leoric said, "Don't be afraid, he doesn't bite!"
Teves also said with a displeased face, "Quick! Don't embarrass me."
Having said all this, Quick could only stand up, so he stretched out his hand to hold the Crow King's paw.This time, Quick's cold sweat broke out!The Crow King's hands were as cold as the dead, and as hard as metal. Looking at the sharp nails, Quick was really afraid that this "children who stopped crying" living Yan Luo would suddenly violently rip open his throat.He couldn't help but look at Leoric, seeing that expression, as if he was begging: Your Majesty!OK!Hold hands too, let me go?
Unexpectedly, Leoric said at this time: "Crow King, I want you to swear that you will treat this colleague well and obey his orders."
The two who were shaking hands were very emotional when they heard this, and Quick thought to himself: Your Majesty, don't provoke him anymore!I beg you!The Crow King said angrily: "Leoric, you are insulting me!"
"I'm insulting you by making you obey orders? Crow King, do you want to disobey my orders again?"
"I..." As soon as the Crow King said a word, he felt his scalp tingling, and the hairs all over his body counted down. Then when he looked up, he saw a small black cloud appeared on the top of his head.
"Of course I am loyal to you!" The Crow King said through gritted teeth.
"That's right! Now swear to him."
"Okay, I will treat my colleagues well and obey his orders!" The Crow King said viciously, and he stared at Quick, who was so frightened that Quick's hands trembled.
"Swear!" Leoric said loudly.
The Crow King had no choice but to say loudly: "I swear, I will treat my colleagues well and obey his orders!"
Seeing this scene, all the officials present were astonished, only the two girls, Shia and Teves, were smiling prettily.
Leoric nodded in satisfaction, and said, "That's right, you deserve to be the loyal and unparalleled Crow King."
ps: I have a cold and feel very uncomfortable.
Now that I have taken the medicine, if I feel better, then everything will go on as usual; if not, I may have to ask for leave in the next few days.Group 18 Two 7 Wife One 6
Chapter 220: The Body of God and Man
With the help of the Crow King, law and order will definitely not be a problem.Then etiquette and law and order are resolved, leaving the final documents.At first, Leoric didn't understand why the position of the document historian was so important. In his impression, wasn't this guy just a recorder of field affairs?About the same as a photographer at a wedding.It's useful, but it's not that useful, is it?Later, Teves reminded him: "The clerk should not only record this ceremony, but also write reports and write history books. In other words, he is the window of the royal family to the people. For those people who are not in the imperial city, it is very important to understand the new Wang, the first thing to pass is not yourself, but the articles written by the clerks."
So that's the official media reporter?That really needs to be treated well. After all, if we don’t occupy the high ground of public opinion, the enemy will occupy it.
Leoric looked at the clerk and said, "Do you have any thoughts about this ceremony?"
The clerk's name is Lawson. He always has a smile on his face and has a pair of clever little eyes. He makes a pretty good first impression.Looking at him, Leoric would think of Captain Philip, the "universal tool man of the popular group", and felt that they seemed to be the same kind of people.
Lawson thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, the grandness of this ceremony is unprecedented. I think it is necessary to compile a masterpiece with beautiful writing, gorgeous rhetoric, and incomparable details to praise your great achievements and great achievements. It will be sung by later generations."
"Are you asking for money?" Leoric laughed.
Lawson laughed embarrassedly and said, "Your Majesty, you are joking, but we do need some funds to maintain the stable operation of the project." He gestured with his index finger and thumb as he spoke.
This makes the man with the pen just the talker.Editing history books or writing biographies didn't cost a lot of money, so Leoric approved a note asking him to go to the financial side for reimbursement.Then he asked, "How are you going to write it?"
"Ah! Since the funds are abundant, I will definitely do my best to write an epic with tens of millions of words for the great King Leoric..."
"Don't mind!" Leoric said quickly, "This story of mine can't be written in 1000 million words. If you are so violent and watered down, readers will definitely not buy it!"
Lawson laughed and said, "Your Majesty! Why bother with the thoughts of ordinary people? We are not street writers who support our families by showing off our writing! Let alone write 1000 million words to praise you, it doesn't matter if it is 2000 million words ? We found a hundred writers to create a joint creation. After you finished writing, you called on the nobles to buy it. Who would dare to lose face? Once the nobles bought it, the merchants and landlords would definitely follow suit. As for the mud legs , They want to buy but they can't read!" Lawson laughed loudly, and the ministers present also laughed.
However, everyone soon noticed that King Leoric seemed to be "displeased", and immediately restrained their smiles.Then, Leoric said: "If the thing you made with a huge amount of money is this kind of rubbish with a few words, then you better stop doing it as a cultural historian."
Lawson realized that he had said something wrong, so he quickly apologized and said, "Your Majesty, forgive me! I am so stupid that I failed to understand His Majesty's will! Please also expressly, Your Majesty, my humble position will definitely satisfy you."
Leoric nodded and said, "What I mean is to write two books. The first one is called "Leorick Emperor Chronicles", or it can be called "Plateau King Chronicles". It is a detailed and accurate record of history. The number of words does not need to be many, but the content must be objective and fair, and it will be left as a reference for future generations to learn. The second book can highlight some romance and the name can be more attractive. While not being divorced from history, it must be very good-looking! Don’t change the general direction randomly, but the details can serve the drama and be properly fabricated.”
The cultural historian had never heard such a request, so he tentatively asked: "Your Majesty, this is a proper fabrication, how did you fabricate it?"
Leoric thought for a while, and said: "For example, Sgrowan singled out the Blackwater Knights, and the two fought for two rounds to decide the winner. If you don't think it's exciting, you can write about their three battles A hundred rounds, but in the end, Growin must win."
"That is, the numbers in the story can be changed, but the result cannot be changed?"
"Yes." Leoric nodded.
"I know! I know!" Lawson said excitedly, "I know what Your Majesty wants! You want your story to be told among bards, and you want the beggars, mudlegs and whores on the streets I can also understand your great achievements! I want these stories to be turned into songs, songs, long poems, ballads and novels, and spread on this land forever!"
"Yes, that's right!" Leoric said.
Lawson was very excited, and said again and again: "Great, great! In fact, this is what I want to write the most, but in the past these things were difficult to be elegant. If I write them, I will definitely be demoted by the old king. Yeah. Actually, who doesn't want to write a bestseller? Ah, I have an inspiration now, I want to write now... Oh, and the title of the second book is, "Leoric I - From Is it possible to use the form of Mud Legs to the Legendary Life of the King?"
The tradition of the plateau people is that only those whose ancestors have been high-ranking officials or have been named nobles have surnames. For example, the leaders of the Northern Expedition Army did not have surnames.Before many kings ascended the throne, they were mud legs without surnames. After becoming kings, they took his name as the first surname, and children have had surnames since then.So from now on, the word Leoric is both a first name and a surname.
It's just that calling His Majesty a "mud-legged man" is somewhat offensive, and most of the ministers around are sweating for Lawson's bold behavior.However, Leoric was unconcerned and said, "That's a good name! The weirder the name, the hotter the book. Just write it... Oh, remember, the most important thing in this book is to convey Information, not rhetoric! After you write it, you have to read it to street laborers, shop runners, farmers and women, even beggars and prostitutes! You don’t pass the test until they can understand it, do you understand?”
Lawson was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "Ah! Your Majesty is indeed wise!" After all, he was doing public opinion work, so he immediately understood what Leoric meant.
So, the paperwork was also arranged properly, and then Shia and Teves took turns to express some of their own requirements and suggestions. Everyone discussed in a relaxed atmosphere for two hours, and the meeting was adjourned.After the meeting ended, Shia asked Leoric, "I don't understand something, Leo."
"what?"
Shia asked: "Why are you so obsessed with building two legendary epics for yourself? In my memory, you are not the kind of person who covets fame and fortune."
"Good question." Leoric smiled and patted Shia's head. "I am indeed not a person who is greedy for fame and fortune. However, fame and fortune, as a kind of 'energy', are of great help to my rule."
Teves on the side said, "I would like to hear more about it."
Leoric said: "The Pope has fallen, which is a good thing for us, but also a bad thing. Well, it is because the Pope's ruin has almost shattered the reputation of the entire Church of the Seven. It is above the religious system of the supremacy of imperial power. The church owns the population, wealth and even the army, which is comparable to a country within a country. For me, this is absolutely not allowed!"
Shia could feel Leoric's hatred for this kind of stinger. He has publicly said more than once that he must remove this poisonous sting after he takes power.
Leoric looked at the statues of the Seven Gods or oil paintings everywhere in the corridors of the palace, and continued: "It's bad because he fell too fast, leaving a lot of power vacuum. The Pope claims to have millions of believers, this number It’s not an exaggeration. As far as I know, the plateau people have been running the Seven Gods religion for 200 years since they immigrated to the swamp, so that many ideas of this religion are deeply rooted in people’s minds.”
"If I want to make up for the power vacuum brought about by the disappearance of the Seven Gods, I need to set up a new god for people to worship. It is too fake and time-consuming to fabricate one, so I think it is better to use a ready-made one."
Shia's eyes widened in horror, and she said, "Leoric! Do you want to be the god of the plateau people?"
"He is already!" Teves laughed loudly, "You all are God of War, God of War! After shouting for so long, Leoric has long been a myth in the hearts of the people."
"No! It's different, it's different!" Shia said nervously, "That's just talking, but now, Leoric, you really want to become a person of people's belief! Legend has it that if a person wants to become a god, he must To be condemned by God!"
Tivis tilted her head in doubt, and said, "God's punishment? Why haven't I heard of it?"
Shia quickly said: "That is to say, if you want to become a god with a human body, then the gods will be angry and draw a thunderbolt to strike you to death!"
Wow, isn't this just crossing the catastrophe?Leoric laughed dumbfounded.
Teves thought for a while, and said: "Oh, I remembered, it seems that a few years ago, there was a very powerful witch doctor in the swamp half-orc tribe, who claimed to have opened the eyes of the sky and proclaimed himself a god. This guy really He has some ability and has the spell of calling wind and rain, which made us suffer a lot. But then this guy disappeared mysteriously. According to rumors, he was in front of the gods when he performed the ceremony, and the believers called him "Sky Eyes" ', and talked with the gods on an equal footing, which angered the gods, and a thunderbolt sent him to pieces... But I think this is just a folklore, the truth is, that guy may have died of illness, or he may have been stuck in a bone after eating fish Dead, you know, stupid things like half-orcs can always die in all sorts of strange ways, shocking your three views."
Leoric didn't think so.Previously, he got three truths from the black water monster baby, and the third one was called "the body of a god and man", which told how human beings were promoted to gods.
There are two methods, the first is to gather the spiritual power of a large number of believers, use it as oneself, and rely on the blessing of faith to become a god; the second is to comprehend the truth of the universe through meditation and other methods, so as to evolve into an existence beyond human beings .
But no matter which method, when this energy reaches the critical point, it will cause some abnormalities.For example, the divine punishment mentioned by Teves and Shia is actually the evil god in outer space who sensed that a new god was born here, so he tested it—yes, it was just a test, not an attack, but basically no one Can withstand this temptation.Another example is that the human body cannot withstand such a powerful force, and before being promoted to a god, he died due to self-destruct or the collapse of san value.
Leoric's acquisition of the "God-Man's Body" will allow him to possess the initial godhead, which will ensure that he can absorb faith efficiently, and will not blew himself up after absorbing it to a certain extent.Next, let's see how powerful the Iron Juices are!The more believers praise him and the firmer their beliefs, the closer Leoric is to a god. In other words, everything about his forwarding, likes, and coin collection can be converted into experience points.
After possessing the body of a god and man, Leoric can be immune to magics that only work on humans, such as the power-drawing curse that the Cyclops cast on him last time.And if he is officially promoted to a god, Leoric can also get a mysterious power.Judging from the introduction of "The Body of the God-Man", this power is mostly related to his divinity-the content in that book is also quite riddle-man. According to Leoric's understanding, this should be a kind of Human superpowers.For example, if you are a mage of the fire department, then the godhead is naturally proficient in flames; if you are a warrior, then the godhead is probably a kind of martial skill or something.But Leoric is an all-around player, so it's really hard to say what will be drawn at that time.
In short, this matter is a long-term task, and there is no rush now. The most important thing at hand is to organize the wedding.If Leoric was to do the marriage by himself, he would have to be blind. Fortunately, Shia and Teves are quite independent, and they also have a group of ministers to assist them.Those who set up the venue set up the venue, those who wrote the invitations wrote the invitations...the days passed day by day, and soon it was the day when Leoric and Shia got married.
On the morning of the wedding day, Wangbei City was congested.Leoric stood on the "King's Tower" overlooking the whole city, and saw that the main road was crowded with people. Just as the captain said earlier, a knight brought four followers, and the followers brought thieves, Prostitutes and beggars... The crowd was crowded with laughter, shouting and cursing. Fortunately, the weather has gradually cooled down recently, otherwise, in the hot and humid heat, so many people are crowded like sardines. The smell of fermentation is suffocating, and after that, plagues, big and small, should come.
The last time Leoric saw so many people was in his previous life when there was a big sale in the supermarket.
What also surprised Leoric was the congratulatory gifts from all over the place.These congratulatory gifts filled the warehouse, and the rest piled up in a hill outside. The recorder kept shouting until his voice became hoarse, and he couldn't read the entire gift list.

Chapter 230: Leoric, you still don't understand women
The Great Swamp is a barren land, and the aristocrats of the plateau people are also crying for poverty every day. However, these guys seem to have a lot of "wealth elasticity"-yes, elasticity, Leoric coined the word "elastic wealth" in the plateau language , and asked the historians to record it——during the war, these guys acted like fools, and they didn't send anyone or effort. Now that the dust has settled, they rushed to show their favor to Leoric.Leoric scoffed at this, and asked someone to write down the gift list, and then enrich the treasury uniformly.
At [-] o'clock in the morning, Growin's "iron cavalry honor guard" began to conduct a victory parade according to Leoric's arrangement. The cavalry stood on both sides, and in the middle were several large prison wagons, which carried some bloody debts on their hands and would not accept transformation. the diehard barbarian captives.With the sound of Growin's whip, the military musicians on horseback played music, and the knights on tall horses began a victory parade.
Ordinary people from the highlands have seen this battle?Just the horses under the knights' buttocks are enough to open people's eyes. There are only ponies and wild donkeys in the swamp. The height of these beasts is not even half that of the barbarian war horses.Looking at the weapons, armor and mental outlook of these knights, they are also unprecedentedly majestic.Most importantly, those barbarian captives in the middle
The plateau people have been bullied by the barbarians for 200 years, and the common people are extremely afraid and hate the barbarians.Now watching the barbarian officers parading the streets in the prison van, the grievances that have accumulated in everyone's hearts for many years have been aroused at once.First, some people cursed, then threw stones, then rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves, and finally some people even wanted to climb into the prison cart and kill the barbarian prisoners inside.The cavalry members are working hard to maintain law and order.Those savages were also scared pale by this scene. Some pretended to be calm, some cried and shouted, and some roared angrily like wild animals... But no matter what they did, they were as funny as clowns at this time.People laughed, children made faces at the captives inside, and took off their pants.
At this time, the Minister of Etiquette quietly said to Leoric: "Your Majesty, isn't this a bit bad?"
"What's wrong?"
"Today is your big day. Such a scene, how should I put it, is a bit chaotic. A royal wedding should be an orderly and serious scene..." the old man said worriedly.
Leoric smiled and said: "But I like the excitement! Besides, this is a rare opportunity to have fun with the people. You see, our people were so afraid of the barbarians at first, but now they dare to attack They threw eggs. Obviously, the people also realized that the barbarians are not invincible. Those barbarians also have two shoulders and one head, and they will bleed when cut with a knife. Yes, our people should build up this kind of confidence. It has been a myth in the hearts of the plateau people, and now I want to let these enemies fall from the altar."
"Crow, come out and perform!" he yelled.
Hearing King Leoric's order, the people below the tower blew a sharp whistle, and with the sound of the whistle, a group of crow soldiers rose into the air.These people wore military uniforms and colored ribbons, and flew into the sky in neat formations, just like airplanes pulling colorful flags.
At first, the onlookers were full of fear for these flying birdmen, but when they saw the gorgeous decorations on those birdmen, they realized that they were just the king's jesters.After the crow soldiers flew back and forth a few times, all the fear in people's hearts dissipated, and they cheered, waved their hands, and waved their hats at the crow soldiers.
