Chapter 500： Two visits (1/2)

The first morning sun shines on the highest clock tower in Cecil City, which is the first light from the giant day, accompanied by the operation of gears and levers, the mechanical clock driven by the magic energy core. Played a loud bell

Dangdang

In the sound of the mechanical clock, Cecil City faded away from the lazy sleep of the night, and the whole city began to live quickly in the sun.

The workers in the tooling walked out of the brick-and-mortar house, passed through the gear square and the lever street in the industrial area, and went to the Rune Foundry, the Machinery Manufacturing Plant and other factory facilities in groups to replace the late shift work. Colleagues; the merchants opened the store door one by one, took off the wooden sign in front of the window, and tapped the copper ring hanging under the eaves to announce the opening of the day; the newsboys and postmen greeted the morning mist and sprinkled it clean. Walk through the streets and send the latest newspapers and letters to every household.

In the streets and lanes where this is quickly becoming alive, there are still early morning vendors who are already busy. They have already gone out when they are not bright. The most important business in the day begins at the street near the home, and the sound of selling and people greet each other. It’s ubiquitous in a block of neighborhoods, and these sounds are mixed with the sound of the mechanical clock, echoing throughout the city of Cecil as if the new city was satisfied with a pleasant sigh in the early morning.

In the restaurant of the lord's house, Gao Wenzheng sat in his own position, and Hetty sat on his right hand side. The "Cecile butler" cut the bread in front of him and said the situation on the nearest territory: ......The news report about Lu’an City has been published through the magic net broadcast and newspaper. According to your instructions, in addition to reporting the cause of the incident, we also emphasized that the local people are not separated, regardless of their status or geographical unity. The situation of one heart, it seems that the effect is very good, people are excited, 'We Cecil' has become a widely spread statement."

Gao Wen nodded slightly and was very satisfied with the work of Godwin Orlando and Herti.

The liberation of Lu’an City has an extraordinary meaning. It not only means the complete retreat of the Holy Light Church in the South, but also means that the new order that he has been trying to promote in the past two years has really affected the lowest level of the people, and more It means that his other plan is going smoothly:

Laying a foundation for national consciousness, let the Southland truly transform from an ordinary aristocratic leader into a country.

In the operation of Lu’an City, thousands of people from all over the South stood together because of a common goal. They came from different social classes and from different regions and families. They used to belong to different lords and died. The people who are in contact with each other never pay attention to each other and never agree with each other. However, for that common goal, these people have become a force. The goal is to override their origin, occupation, place of residence and even personal belief. And the emergence of this phenomenon means that these originally scattered people have become the basis of "Cezir citizens."

On this basis, relying on continuous guidance and enlightenment, the Cecils will sooner or later awaken into a community, they will have similar moral standards, have similar living customs, they will use common words, similar language, will Celebrate the common festival and commemorate the common heroes. They will proudly call their ethnic group "We Cecil" and will treat every inch of land here as a "Your" territory.

According to Gao Wen’s experience, this sense of identity will lay the people’s psychological cornerstone for “territorial reunification”, and the development of the trend, coupled with the pioneering ancestors of Cecil’s ancestral ancestors, may even be able to embark on the “poor and shelving disputes”. , the road has been since ancient times...

Ok, this may be a bit more interesting.

But even if you don't consider "Da has been since ancient times", it is not easy to realize national and national consciousness. It takes many years, although people in the streets and streets will say "We Cecil" in excitement and pride. Words, but at best it is only a temporary craze caused by the current situation. In just two or three years, it is not enough to establish a strong and lasting national conviction, but as long as this craze takes the first step, as long as Gaowen Don't make a big mistake in the process of governing this land. As long as this land continues to develop as a whole, it will only be a matter of time before the "Cesier" becomes a whole.

"In addition, the Northern Rock Fortress sent a message, and the Holy Spirit Plain sent a messenger to hand over a letter from the royal family to the commander of the Valde Peric Fortress," Hetty continued. "They seem to have finally made room for the situation in the South." The Northern Grand Duke Victoria Verde wants to visit in person, this will be a 'private nature' visit. This letter is still on the road, the news is directly transmitted through the magic network communication."

Gao Wen’s hand holding the spoon slightly paused, and there was a strange smile on his face: “A Duke of the North personally visited another border Grand Duke across half of the country, and it was still on the corner of the kingdom’s civil war...this is It can only be called a private one."

"Do you want to agree?" Hetty looked at Gao Wen's eyes. "Rejecting the Duke of the North may be more exciting to the royal family, making them more vigilant and resistant to the South, but if you agree...the Northern Duke will enter the Rock Fortress. ""

"There is nothing to refuse," Gao Wen replied casually. "We just use the meteorological fortress to block the troubles of the north. It is not to completely block the south. The girl at the Wilder family has inherited some of the qualities of her ancestors. I am very I am happy to talk to her."

Hearing the phrase "inheriting some of the qualities of the ancestors", Hetty couldn't help but look at Rebecca sitting on the other side of the other side. The girl was lowering her head and trying to compete with a piece of meat. The way of wielding a knife and fork seemed to be like In the face of killing the father and enemies, seeing Hetti can only sigh invisibly, and took his eyes back: "Okay, I will let the Ward fortress commander reply to the messenger. But there is one more thing... ...I am afraid this thing is more sensitive."

"Ok?"
