Why did the lord rebel

Chapter 332 Chapter [-] What did the lord eat today

Time is always flowing, and the market is still peaceful.

On New Year's Day in the 95th year of the Imperial Calendar, the residents of Peacock City ushered in another ordinary day that was no different from usual in the biting cold wind.

If there is any difference between this year's New Year and the previous ones, it is probably that there are currently more than 20 private troops of southern nobles stationed outside Peacock City, and every resident of Peacock City has to use part of their rations as It's military pay.

However, this small town based on the north bank of the Lionheart River with its mining industry and accustomed to the crisp sound of mining picks hitting iron stones every day, did not appear particularly disturbed by the shadow of war that shrouded the entire southern border of the empire:
Although the residents have long heard that the reason why the nobles want to assemble the army is because the terrifying orc army will cross the Lion Heart River in the near future, but seeing that half a month has passed, there is not even a shadow of the orc. The insensitive residents of Peacock City have returned to the past way of life:
In the final analysis, when I first heard that the orcs might attack, the residents who could run had long since left, and those who stayed in this small border town either didn’t want to run or couldn’t—if the orcs attacked the city the day after tomorrow , the residents of that city only care about whether the sun will rise as usual tomorrow;

This numbness is probably due to the fact that the residents of Peacock City, who live with ore, fatigue, poverty and hunger every day, really don't have the time to think about whether they will die under the knife of the orcs;
Instead, what they think about is: If they just fled to the north like this, how much travel expenses will they need?What to eat on the road?Where do you want to make your home?What will you do for a living in the future?
In the cruel war years, sometimes, being able to run is a privilege in itself.

But the benevolent Supreme Holy Spirit may be destined to add a little drama to the residents of Peacock City on the first day of this new year.

Because on the way to work in the mine in the east with their hoes, the residents of Peacock City unexpectedly discovered that there were many suspicious-looking outsiders on the streets of the city early this morning: these people were wearing straight gray clothes. He wears a military uniform, and wears an extremely straight military hat with a large brim on his head. The golden goshawk emblem in the middle of the military cap is shining with brilliance, and it really looks like it is made of pure gold!
Even the well-informed residents of Peacock City couldn't tell where these people came from:
These days, they have also seen a lot of soldiers and horses in the major territories, but they are either conscripts wearing cotton armor, leather armor and chain mail, or master knights in iron armor and plate armor, but there is no one. The servants of the nobleman are dressed so strangely?
What confuses the residents of Peacock City even more is that when they mustered up their courage and asked about the origins of this group of mysterious people, they just answered mysteriously:
"We are from the Political Department of Shuangfengling!"

Now the residents of Peacock City are even more puzzled:
What is the "political department"?

And I've searched all over the north bank of the Lionheart River, but I haven't heard of a territory called "Shuangfengling"?Was it newly conferred by His Majesty the Emperor?

——Although Shuangfengling has become famous in the St. Augustus Festival Competition, and the love affairs of the lord of Frostfengling has become a popular rumor material in the gossip circle of the imperial capital, but for the low-level people on the north bank of the Lionheart River Said that a new territory on the wasteland of the land of cracking souls naturally failed to leave any impression on them.

If this group of mysterious people from the "Frost Maple Ridge Political Department" came here to buy wine, meat, and shop at kilns like the conscripts from other territories, then the people of Peacock City, who are under the pressure of life, would not bother to pay attention;

But this group of mysterious people probably did not have a pure purpose:
They gathered in twos and threes and spread out in the streets and alleys of Peacock City, distributing mimeographed leaflets to passers-by!

The name of the flyer is also strange, it is called "What the Lord Eats Today"!
It is a pity that the residents of Peacock City have low literacy rates like the vast majority of poor people in the empire. The leaflets distributed by the mysterious people of the "Shuangfengling Political Department" can only be used as toilet paper for the common people;

But this group of guys in gray tweed military uniforms still refused to give up. They just held up a loudspeaker on the street and read the contents of the leaflet aloud to passers-by;
Now the residents of Peacock City immediately understood the identities of these people: Town Announcers!

——In the human empire with limited information access, "town clerks" are actually an indispensable part of the administrative system. Rely on these loud voices to shout to the illiterate people in the street.

But the group of Frost Maple Ridge "announcers" who came to Peacock City on New Year's Day seemed to be a little different:
Generally speaking, the content advertised by town clerks is not very nutritious, and more of it is "the lord announced that this year's two-cent tax" and other content that make people want to hit the wall after hearing it, so the people of Peacock City usually Treating the town clerk is similar to treating the devil in the purgatory world;

But the leaflets read out by the "announcers" in Shuangfengling were contrary to the boring routine and seemed full of fun!

For example, the title of the first article on the leaflet they read was actually:

"Shock!An army of [-] orcs destroyed the wasteland, but he was the hero behind the scenes? "

——Isn’t this kind of title, which makes people want to stop and find out when they hear it?
As for the actual content of this newsletter, the onlookers in Peacock City were even more stunned:
From the members of the Political Department of Shuangfengling, they learned that the orcs sent to invade the southern border of the empire was actually the prestigious "Hammer of Purgatory" division, with as many as [-] elite members!
These more than 1 orcs had already crossed the Dusty Mountains and entered the Wilderness of the Soul Breaker earlier this month!

Before the civilians of Peacock City had time to worry about the invasion of the orcs and the fate of the North Bank of the Lionheart River, the political commissars of Frost Maple Ridge suddenly changed their tone and talked about the nobles in the southern part of the empire they knew well:
The commoners of Peacock City learned indignantly that the enemy was approaching, and the nobles and gentlemen in the south of the empire had fled from the front line of Shuangfengling back to the north bank of the Lion Heart River!

And when the political commissar of Shuangfengling severely pointed out that although the southern nobles of the empire gathered allied forces, they did not deploy defenses and guard the border of the Lion Heart River at all, but were busy drinking, having fun and searching for money in the city every day. The citizens of Peacock City, who were full of grievances, raised their arms and roared to the sky. For a while, every street in Peacock City was clamoring because of the anger of the masses;
However, these mysterious town clerks immediately talked about the strange territory "Frost Maple Ridge" far away in the Land of Cracking Soul:
The citizens of Peacock City were surprised to hear that the lord of Frost Maple Ridge, the eternally great, glorious and correct Duke Eliot Igor, and the governor of the southern border of the empire, the relatively great, honorable and correct Count Anthony Dimitri, In order to prevent the people on the north bank of the Lionheart River from being tortured by soldiers, they decided to use [-] soldiers to resist the [-] elite beastmen on the land of the broken soul!
They want the duke to guard the gate of the country, and the governor to die for the country!
Seeing that the emotions of the people have been exaggerated in place, the political commissars of Shuangfengling made a decisive decision, slapped the gavel (played by the Fengzhifu Runeban), and talked about the epic death blocking battle in the Red River Valley!
They talked about the three hundred strong men who were ordered to go to the north to resist the blades of the wolf cavalry with their human bodies!

They spoke of the incendiary bombs thrown by the Cromwell Annihilator ballista, and the scream of death in the snowy sky!
They talked about how the "Hammer of Purgatory" was cursed by the Holy God, and under the surprise attack of the lord, he lost sight of the other and suffered heavy casualties!
This battle was full of turbulent winds and clouds, shaking of the earth, mixed with visions such as the breaking of the military flag, the roar of thunder, the apparition of the holy god, and the arrow being shot by the commander. The two thousand heroes in Shuangfengling, and the ten thousand evil spirits... The orcs really fought in the dark, the sun and the moon were dark!
The tense citizens of Peacock City followed the narration of the political commissar of Shuangfengling to the end, and finally ushered in the end of the Great Patriotic War—those [-] orc invaders died in the bloody battle of Shuangfengling. , Under the wise command of the great man Eliot Igor, he failed and fled back to the Glorious Federation!

There was no sound for a while, and a huge shock spread in the streets and alleys of Peacock City.

While the idiots of the southern nobles are fighting for power and profit, the mighty orc "Hammer of Purgatory" division has been completely defeated in the Land of Broken Soul!

The victor of the war was actually an unknown young nobleman, a "President of Southern Military Affairs" just appointed by His Majesty the Emperor!
Is the appearance of Lord Elliot Igor the blessing of the Holy Spirit of Mercy to the people in the south of our empire? !

It has to be said that the writers of Dongbingku, who have been tempered into steel, concocted such a newsletter. The whole process of Frost Maple Ridge defeating many with less and repelling the orc army is mixed with countless twists, cool points, explosions, popular memes and vicious political metaphors, which makes the "Kingfisher Feather" tavern The garbage stories of the bards in the novel are gone in seconds and there is no dregs left!

Even the heinous Dong Bingku writer has not forgotten to demonstrate his proficient fragmentation technique at the end of the story:
After a big battle, the political commissars of Shuangfengling patted the gavel, and told the audience in a serious and mysterious way:

You must have never imagined that after the war was over and when the battlefield was being cleaned up, the great Duke Elliott Igor learned a shocking secret related to the political insider of the empire from the captured orcs!
——Foretell what will happen next, let’s listen to tomorrow’s breakdown!

——Yes, these gangsters haven't finished telling the story at once, and they will have a booth tomorrow, so let's continue!
The people of Peacock City, who had been entrapped by broken chapters, had not had time to express their anger by tearing up tickets, hanging people, cursing the broken chapter dog without a little dick, etc., the "town announcers" in Shuangfengling hurriedly read other articles on the leaflet , in order to divert attention--

The content of the special issue of "What the Lord Eats Today" includes but is not limited to:

The weather forecast given by Master Victor Laurie using magic divination; the announcement of Frost Maple Ridge's "Manhattan Laboratory" recruiting skilled craftsmen with high salaries; Prince Te Igor talked about the international situation in the wasteland and the environment for peaceful development, etc...

The most amazing thing is that at the end of "What the Lord Eats Today", there is actually a serialized fantasy novel!

This "Dragon Hero" created by Dong Bingku's pen name "Mediocre Gold" tells the story of the young trainee mage Mystek Yang who meets a forbidden female mage with dragon blood after entering the Xuecheng Mage Academy. The twists and turns of love, including Mystek Yang's arm holding the wand being cut off by a noble lady, met the legendary ice dragon Cristiano by chance, and obtained the bloody legend of dragon language magic inheritance!

Of course, it is impossible to finish the lecture. "The Legend of Dragon Heroes" in this issue of "What the Lord Eats Today" is just serialized when Mystek Yang first entered the Magic Academy and was met by his tutor. Ender Spencer's Jealousy Plot.

As for the back story?Wait for the next issue, you!

As a result, the miners in Peacock City were distracted when they were working in the mine all day today, thinking that they must go out early tomorrow morning, so as to hear the latest chapter of "Dragon Heroes"—tomorrow, Mystek Yang You must pull off the Ander Spencer mage hat, and you must be slapped in the face!
And after returning home at night, they even told their wives and children about the bad deeds of the nobles in the south, about the brave and fearless Lord Elliott Igor and the strong man of Frost Maple Ridge, and about Now comes the mystery that urgently needs to be revealed, but was sold out by the political commissar of Shuangfengling:
Lord Shuangfengling, what "shocking secret related to the political inside story of the empire" has he discovered?

On the first day of the New Year in the 95th year of the imperial calendar, every commoner in Peacock City was full of doubts, just like the author of a foolish novel who doubted whether the author was still alive after several days of chasing after the master reader.
