Chapter 63 (1/2)
Everything has two sides.
The barons and nobles of Manyu, including Duke Borg, did not care about Bastille, but did not trust him. They had to wait for their own people to verify the accuracy of the information before they could take action.
It has been two weeks since cleister, the fox, was once again invited into the Duke's palace. By this time, the news that Bastille was captured by Andes mountain people had spread all over the streets of solo.
Some say that tens of thousands of troops have been sent out by Andes mountain people this time. The head of the people killed in Bastille is rolling, and the whole Bastille has become a sieve.
Some said that there were traitors in the Bastille. They opened the city gate and let the Andes mountain people in. They were slaughtered from top to bottom.
It is also said that the Andes mountain people who captured Bastille were not ordinary Andes mountain people who were enslaved by them. They were mixed blood with those savages who drank blood in the kentana ice field. They were eight feet tall, eight feet around the waist, and covered with a foot long black hair. Once they fell into their hands, life would not be as good as death They're all reduced to their food.
It is also said that the army of the Andes is gathering. Now the Bastille is full of people and people. It will not be long before they come like a flood. It will reappear the tragic scene of human locusts 30 years ago.
All kinds of rumors are flying all over the world. Even if the fox, kleister, stays at the hotel without leaving home, he has heard no less than ten versions, and one by one is more mysterious than the other.
In particular, the word ”human locust” has aroused the sensitive nerves of some middle-aged and elderly people who have come from that era. They began to pack their own property one by one, and they were ready to take the whole family on a run with them.
More people are excited, especially the young people who are eager to make achievements.
Over the years, the general environment of Manyu army leader has been relatively stable. Although there are some internal turbulence, they are all small skirmishes. Before the formation of scale, they were killed by Duke bog. The last legion war of more than 1000 people was ten years ago. This is not good news for those young people who are eager to get rid of their origins by military achievements.
Now Bastille has shown them the hope of war, and they are all excited to join the army while advocating the necessity of war. They hope to take this opportunity to express themselves and gain military achievements, so as to get rid of their present living conditions.
The whole territory of Soro is filled with a smell of war.
In the past two weeks, the life of clester the fox was not easy. The two bodyguards who sent him back to the Duchess did not go back. In name of protecting his safety, he was actually put under house arrest.
During this period, many lords and nobles visited him in various names, but they were extremely proud and self-esteem. They wanted to get first-hand information from him, but they did not trust him, and they did not want to have too much relationship with him.
The only one with a low attitude and a set of soliciting intentions is a big pit. Unless his forehead is kicked by a donkey, how could he be involved in a whirlpool of military leaders' succession?
Entering the Duchess again is a very different experience.
Compared with two weeks ago, the Duchess house is much more lively than it was two weeks ago. In and out of the Duchess, they are all dressed in dignified clothes, polished leather boots, must look at the sky at 60 degrees, walk like a measurement, have to cough twice before speaking, mix up the breath, and hold a pure opera aria. It seems that if they do not do so, they will not be able to show their dignity.
Among them, many familiar faces were obviously those who had visited him in the past two weeks. Compared with the poker faces we met last time, there were fake smiles on their faces to show their intimacy.
Obviously, this is the new title of the so-called second military Minister of the Duke's house. It may also be the only role of this title. What kind of military minister is a military minister who has only an audience but no right to remonstrate?
No matter Wangdu or lingdu, the faces of these people are the same.
When the order of calling for war was sent out, the reaction speed of local aristocrats and lords was much faster than that predicted by clester the fox. When many local nobles attended the war conference of the Duke's house, the private army had already assembled and was on the way to the capital.
The actions of Andes mountain people in Bastille stabbed the whole leader of the Manyu army and touched their fundamental interests. They could not help but worry.
