Chapter 390： Chengtou Changed King's Flag

Chapter 390 The Flag of the Changed King of the City

In the face of the silence and depressing atmosphere, Cypolites finally took over and said: "According to the battle report from the front line, a large number of undead appeared in the Scarlet Fortress last night, including angels and dragons. Yes..." After speaking, he looked in the direction of the Special Bureau headquarters.

Marquis Veron frowned, he did not receive this news, indicating that Cypolites' intelligence ability was obviously stronger than him.

But now is not the time to worry about these details. His eyes are fixed on Cypolites: "You mean that Wood Slater secretly left the capital and went to the Scarlet Fortress in the south to assist Silabel!"

Cepolites nodded and said, "It's very possible, otherwise, even if Silabel used a trick to blow up the Scarlet Fortress, it would be impossible to annihilate the 200,000 revolutionary army in one go."

Marquis Veron narrowed his eyes slightly and said slowly: "If this is the case, this may be our chance, we…"

But just halfway through speaking, he shook his head helplessly: "No, even if we take the opportunity to wipe out Stynard's special situation and the city guards, we can control the overall situation when Silabel leads the victorious division back, but leave it to her. Gives an excuse to attack us."

Cypolites nodded and said: "It's a pity that the 200,000 army was completely destroyed overnight, otherwise the huge military pressure will continue, and even if Silabel comes back, she will not dare to act rashly. Without the 200,000 revolutionary army to contain it, Silabel will let go, and it seems that it is time to change strategy, this palace can't stay."

The expressions of Marquis Veron and Marquis Capson all changed slightly, and they immediately understood Cypolites' thoughts. The gate of time and space under this palace is an important passage to the main world. It was in the name of the little king before. Rabel had no reason to do it. However, after the battle of Erdis Prison, Cypolites and his group entered the palace, which could not be hidden from the eyes and ears of the special bureau. This was equivalent to a public statement of attitude. If the revolutionary army was victorious, Silabel would be defeated and embarrassed. Back in the capital, they wouldn't have any problems. But now that the 200,000 revolutionary army has almost been wiped out, Silabel will not appease them when he comes back.

The Marquis of Capson also frowned. His situation was worse than that of Cypolites. Now he has begun to consider whether to take his family and subordinates to leave the capital with Cypolites, or just go with Cypolites. Together with Tes, he also intends to return to the back cover of the family, since Stynard can't stay anyway.

Marquis Veron felt helpless, Silabel's sudden victory shocked him and helpless, many of his plans were disrupted by this amazing reversal...

A week later, early morning.

is located in the cemetery, on the top of the town center, there was a sudden click, and then the heavy bell of "dong dong" rang through the sky above the cemetery. However, the big bell embodied by the meditation method finally completed a circle, which means that the meditation method [lv6] has been completed and the conditions for further upgrades have been reached.

At this time, Green was in the special bureau of Steinard, and annihilated the 200,000 army of the revolutionary army in the red fortress. Green soon returned to the capital alone, and then Silabel also led the army back, but did not return. The barracks outside the city, but directly enter the city, take over all defenses, and build various fortifications in the city to prepare for the next battle.

During this period, there was also a very topical incident, that is, the captured revolutionary army commander, General Lucas, even secretly contacted a garrison officer in the original Red Fortress.

This officer was a spy of the Revolutionary Army lurking in the Red Fortress. At a critical time, he helped General Lucas to escape, and also rescued more than 20,000 captured Revolutionary Army prisoners.

Although    was discovered later, Silabel immediately ordered a pursuit, but still let General Lucas escape with more than 10,000 prisoners of war.

Such a legendary experience immediately made General Lucas the hottest topic of conversation. Some people said he was a hero, some said he was a coward, and some people said he was the culprit of failure...

However, under the guidance of an invisible force, General Lucas was gradually portrayed as a shrewd, strong and wise hero. It was not his fault that he failed in the battle of the Red Fortress, but was murdered by a traitor. The middleman was captured. However, he did not give up his beliefs or the ideals of the revolutionary army during the most difficult and difficult times. With his wisdom and tenacity, he just rescued the captured subordinates and escaped from the enemy's net.

This kind of turn of the gods, the top leaders of the Revolutionary Army and the people of the Loen Federation never thought of it. Although they feel a little strange, at this time, they need to boost morale and offset the dilemma that they just suffered a big defeat. The best way to boost morale is to create a hero. It was at this time that General Lucas, who was destined to be a scapegoat and was nailed to the pillar of shame, suddenly jumped out and engaged in a wave of riotous operations, even if the revolutionary army’s The higher-ups felt that it was very strange that he escaped and could not care so much.

Sure enough, the following public opinion started to one-sidedly touted General Lucas, saying how wise and brave he was, how sympathetic to his subordinates, and how desperate he was...

Soon General Lucas turned from a defeated general to an iconic figure of the revolutionary army, a synonym for perseverance, and a spokesperson for perseverance.

Under the halo of heroes, the adverse consequences caused by the collapse of the Scarlet Fortress were quickly offset. After hearing the legend of General Lucas, many young people strengthened the belief that the revolutionary army will succeed, and the decayed kingdom will surely succeed. Destruction, the revolutionary cause will never fade.

However, General Lucas, as the protagonist, did not lead the defeated soldiers back to the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army. Instead, after Silabel led his army back to Steinard, he stayed directly near the original Scarlet Fortress and began to repair the destroyed fortress.

General Lucas knew that if he didn't want to become a prisoner, he must not go back at this time. His only choice now, and the path that Silabel had drawn for him, was to become a separatist warlord who supported himself. On the surface, he is still attached to the Revolutionary Army, and bears the title of Hero of the Revolutionary Army, constantly asking the Revolutionary Army for money and food, using his prestige, recruiting expansion troops, occupying nearby towns and lands, and becoming a veritable warlord of the separatist side.

As a senior member of the Revolutionary Army, General Lucas is very aware of the ruthless means of those comrades-in-arms. In order to survive and for his family, he has no right to refuse Silabel's proposal.

I have to admit that General Lucas is a very talented person. Once he made a decision, he acted decisively and resolutely. In less than two days, he swept the surrounding two cities and more than a dozen towns, and copied a few of them with bad reputation. The lair of the old landlords and capitalists, and distributed the obtained property to the soldiers under his command and the poor people of the city.

The real money was spread out, which immediately boosted the morale of these remnants of defeated soldiers, and gained some goodwill from the people at the bottom of the two cities.

However, what they plundered was only some floating wealth. The most valuable things for these landlords and capitalists were the land and factories they owned.

General Lucas sold these lands and factories at low prices to local landlords and capitalists who took the initiative to move closer to him, gaining the support of these people.

Taking advantage of this policy of adopting carrots and sticks to the landlords and capitalists, along with the method of constantly spreading sweet dates to the people at the bottom, General Lucas quickly stabilized his territory, and his troops quickly expanded from more than 10,000 people to nearly 30,000 people. People, and secretly obtained a lot of weapons and equipment from Silabel.

In less than a week, General Lucas has turned from a revolutionary army general to a warlord under the banner of a revolutionary army.

In the eyes of the people at the bottom, General Lucas is still a hero, a general who resisted the tyranny of the kingdom. However, the senior leaders of the Revolutionary Army had discovered something was wrong, and several times when General Lucas was asked to come back to report on his duties, they were refused to prevaricate for various reasons. Coupled with the rapid expansion of General Lucas's army, and unauthorized actions, he occupied two cities, controlled nearly 400,000 people, and was barely able to support an army of 30,000 people on his own.

All these performances had to make the top of the Revolutionary Army suspect General Lucas's plot, and immediately cut off the logistical supplies to General Lucas.

However, General Lucas himself is the veteran of the revolutionary army, and he is not without connections in the Loen Federation. After he decided to take the risk, he immediately sent his confidants to split into two groups. One of them went to the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army in the southern province at the fastest speed, trying to find a way to secretly bring his family out, and according to his agreement with Silabel, one of his two sons was taken as a hostage and was to be sent to Study abroad at the Royal Academy of Lorenzo in the main world. The other way is to enter the main world through the channel of Steinard, and then turn to the Loen Federation, contact his contacts, and obtain the support of the other party.

This is the idea that Silabel gave him. After all, the Loen Federation is not a monolith. As long as General Lucas shows the corresponding strength, he will definitely get the support of some families who are eager to gain more benefits from the void world. After all, General Lucas is still a revolutionary army in name, and a hero with a high reputation. As long as he can provide enough returns, his support does not violate the overall plan of the Loen Federation.

With the emergence of a third-party force represented by General Lucas, the situation that was gradually becoming clear has changed again.

But none of that mattered to Green, who was all in the cemetery at this point.

On the top of the clock tower in the center of the town, there are magical rays of light around the big clock, which is displayed by the Gelfies meditation instrument. A single rotation of the pointer can make Green feel a little deeper in his understanding of meditation.

On the dial of the big clock, because it has reached the limit of [lv6], the minute hand and hour hand have stopped, the minute hand has already pointed to [12] but it is still a little short, and the hour hand is only one line away from pointing to [7] o'clock. direction.
