Why did the lord rebel

Chapter 393
"Has life always been this hopeless?"

Hearing this question, the servant stopped holding the watering can, and the water pouring from the spout splashed a wave of mist on the green banana leaves.

"I don't think it's always the case, my lord." The servant tilted his head and thought for a while, then replied seriously, "But in most cases, it's quite hopeless."

The lord of Bloodthorn City nodded gloomily, and subconsciously bit his finger.

Seeing the appearance of the city lord, the servant was a little panicked, for fear that his answer just now was inappropriate.

He is just the illegitimate son of the chief of the Shanya tribe. Because he knew the common language, he was recruited by Bloodthorn City to serve as a servant in the mansion of the city lord. Maybe he shouldn't have taken the words of the city lord so hastily.

However, the city lord didn't seem to blame him, but fell into deep thought again.

The servant was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth, and boldly asked:

"My lord... the Blood Temple... is still not going well?"

The city lord glanced at the servant, and then sneered. This reaction caused the servant to fall into panic again.

"Not going well? Not going well? Haha!" The lord of Bloodthorn City, a slightly fat orc over fifty years old, laughed with sarcasm and sadness, "I just received the news! The lonely stone is dead! Our great, General Durst Lone Stone of the 'Pride of the God of War' division is dead! Haha! Hahaha!"

For a moment, the servant's mind went blank.

General Durst Lone Rock was dead—it took half a minute for his brain to fully comprehend the news.

As for Durst Lone Stone, the servants only knew that he was the head of the division of the Federation "Pride of the God of War".After the Blood Temple was occupied by the rebels of the "Scourge Legion", the supreme management and control of the entire Bloodthorn City was taken over by the "Pride of the God of War" division that came to judge. "Pride", the servant once took a look at General Durst Lone Stone from afar.

The impression left by the division commander on the servants was that he was domineering, proud, and decisive, and his every move revealed an unquestionable domineering spirit. In other words, it met all the characteristics that an orc soldier should possess.

But now, it is that General Durst Lone Stone... dead? !

The servant turned his head in a daze, and took a peek at the city lord.

Ever since the "Pride of the God of War" occupied the magpie's nest and changed the town hall of Bloodthorn City into a temporary headquarters for suppressing the rebellion, the city lord, who was forced to return to his own mansion for vacation, has been in a silent and gloomy state;
But for some reason, at this moment, after learning of the death of the counter-insurgency commander, the city lord seems to give the servants a faint feeling...

……happy?
The servant's little thoughts are still running, the city lord of Bloodthorn City has already patted the document on the desktop, and said with a sneer:
"Guess what? What is the 'Holy Land Recapture Plan' that 'Pride of the God of War' hid from us before, and Mr. Mystery refused to talk about it? Decapitation with fucking assassins from the side! This is fine, the front side didn't push forward and suffered heavy casualties, and the side side, it was the fucking Durst Lone Stone who was swiped by the Scourge's assassins in turn! Ha! Ha! Fuck!"

"General Lonely, General Lonely Stone is dead? Was...assassin?!" The servant swallowed with difficulty, staring in astonishment at the sneering Lord City Lord, "Then, what about the temple?"

"What else can I do!" The lord of Bloodthorn City slapped the table and scolded, "It's over! What else can we do! Lorient, do you know that the frontal wave of infantry on the Temple Street advances, death How many people were killed? Combined with the two attacks, the bloody 'Pride of War' has already suffered more than half of its casualties! The opponent's zombies are still fighting more and more! In addition to the death of Durst Lone Stone, wouldn't it be too late to take back the Blood Temple? Is this an idiot's dream?! Ha! When the fucking "Pride of the God of War" came to show off his power, he said something like "overall city defense" and kicked me out of the town hall, and now? Ha! "Holy Land Recapture Plan"? I Pooh!"

The servant held the kettle and trembled uncontrollably:
"But my lord, that is the Holy Land of the God of War... If the 'Pride of the God of War' is already...then..."

"I can't help it!" The lord of Bloodthorn City leaned back heavily on the chair, wiped his big teeth with his hands, and couldn't tell whether he was sad or relieved, "Unless the Federation and our respected commander are willing to start from Burning Crystal again." The canyon dispatched two divisions to suppress the bandits! You may not believe it, but the fools of the "God of War" even lost seven or eight "Flesh and Blood" chariots to the rebels because of negligence! Hah!"

The servant swallowed.

Even a civilian like him who is far away from the federal ruling class can fully realize how heavy the "two divisions" are at the critical moment of the war. Saying that it will harm the overall situation will definitely seriously affect the Federation's offensive against the Empire's defense line in the northern Central Plains.

Who are these rebels? !The servant suddenly lost his voice.

"All in all, those problems that the soldiers can't solve, we have to use political means to wipe our asses..." The tone of the city lord of Bloodthorn City suddenly seemed a little proud, "What kind of face did the Lone Stones and the others use when they stationed?" Leo Sir, you can rest at home with peace of mind. We, the Pride of the God of War, will definitely return the Holy Land to you and the people of Bloodthorn City intact'... Bah! Now that more than half of the casualties have been killed, they are begging me again' Think of a way 'It's..."

The servant blinked, and then suddenly realized what the city lord was saying.

"Master City Master!" He opened his eyes wide in surprise, "Could it be...you...you really have a way to take back the great Blood Temple?"

The lord of Bloodthorn City hesitated for a moment, probably wondering whether he should share too much inside information with a servant of a servant.

But in the end, the strong desire to confide brought about by staying in the house for a long time and allowing the "Pride of the God of War" regiment to act as a domineering agent overcame the slight cautiousness in the city lord's heart.He smiled, lowered his voice and said:
"Lorient, the federal soldiers, including Durst Lone Stone, are all a group of rough people who only think about fighting and killing! There is an orc rebellion and the occupation of the Temple of Blood. The first thought of this group of people is actually Pick up the tomahawk and chop at it—hey, no, it has become such an embarrassing situation today! In fact, the problem can be resolved peacefully through negotiations!"

"Peaceful settlement?! But... but my lord, that is a rebel army?!" The servant was dumbfounded, "Shouldn't these traitors who desecrated the Holy Land be beheaded, dismembered, and sacrificed to the God of War?"

"Tell me, does the God of War care more about a piece of holy land, or the authority of the entire Haven continent?" The lord of Bloodthorn City curled his lips for the naive idea of ​​the servant, "See the big picture! You have to see the big picture! Only at the least cost can we solve the problem." With this small problem of the Scourge, our Federation will be able to achieve more important victories on the main battlefield and win the domination of the entire continent!"

"So... you are going to negotiate with that group of 'Scourge' rebels...?" the servant asked cautiously, subconsciously lowering his voice due to nervousness.

"That's right!" the Lord of Bloodthorn City laughed, "The so-called 'rebels' are actually a group of greedy thugs! As long as they are given enough benefits, they will naturally leave the Blood Temple obediently!"

"But... but the lives of those shaman masters and those warriors..." The servant still had a hard time accepting the fact that he had to negotiate with a group of traitors with blood on their hands.

"They will always pay the price in the future." The lord of Bloodthorn City said bitterly, "But the most urgent task now is to get the Blood Temple back from these bastards... This holy land is really important. The news that the temple has fallen into the hands of the rebels for a long time reaches the front line, and both warriors and shamans will collapse. For the sake of the overall situation, sometimes we just need to endure the suffering of hatred, Lorient."

"Then..." the servant asked tentatively, "The bastard traitors of the Scourge...are they willing to negotiate?"

"The ghost knows what those pagan bastards who betrayed the God of War are thinking!" The city lord of Bloodthorn City rolled his eyes, "But our advantage is that I received a letter from Dongyongge two days ago, saying that someone is willing to match , Help us Bloodthorn City and the Scourge to resolve the dispute peacefully!"

"Bridging?!" The servant opened his mouth wide, "Who is it?"

"Do you still remember the group of human rogues who burned, killed and looted on the Great Plain of Dolores?" the Lord of Bloodthorn City snorted.

The servant looked a little dazed.

If it hadn't been for the city lord's sudden mention, he would have almost forgotten that the reason why General Durst Lone Stone brought the "Pride of the God of War" division south from the front line was not to capture the Blood Temple, but to Destroy the band of human rogues that haunt the plains of Dolores like ghosts!

However, the sudden betrayal of Master Ner'zhul and the Scourge, as well as the brutal occupation of the Blood Temple, directly broke the original plan of the "Pride of the God of War" division and attracted the attention of all the southern orcs;

The original group of human rogues now seemed irrelevant.

"There are traitors like the Scourge among our orcs, and the humans in the empire also have their own little thoughts." The city lord of Bloodthorn City folded his arms and sneered, "Two days ago, the master of this group of human rogues, a man named 'Elio The human nobleman of Te Igor' wrote me a letter from the mountains - he said that the reason why he sent this group of rogues to harass our federation was to fulfill his duty as the lord of the empire, but he also I don’t want to bury my soldiers and family at this end of the mountain of dust for the sake of that superior emperor.”

"Caring for feathers, being selfish..." the servant said cautiously, "...it seems to be the style of their human nobles."

The Lord of Bloodthorn City snorted, nodded and said:
"Didn't the Scourge still flirt with these rogues and fight side by side? Our Lord Elliott Igor wrote in a letter saying that their territory is willing to build a bridge for the peaceful settlement of the 'Occupation of the Blood Temple' , the condition is that we agree to return the group of human rogues under him to the empire without any damage."

"This..." The servant was stunned, "Human beings are the most insidious and cunning, are their words credible?"

"The decision is not up to me." The city lord of Bloodthorn City shrugged, "I have already written to the chief of the situation, whether to agree to Mr. Elliott Igor's proposal and to negotiate peace with the Scourge, all depends The Great Chief's decision. But, the Great Chief should also know how unreliable the soldiers are, and who is the real mainstay of the Federation..."

The servant nodded hastily, knowing very clearly that his master's political career seemed to have risen because of this innocent disaster...

……

three days later.

With the full retreat of the soldiers of the "Pride of the God of War" division, the Temple Street of Bloodthorn City, which has been stained with blood in recent days, seems to have lost a bit of the killing spirit of Tie Ma Yundiao Jiu Juechen.

However, the "Flesh and Flesh" chariots that were originally parked in the formation of the "Pride of God of War" were roaring in front of the occupied Blood Temple at this moment, pointing their fiery red barrels at the blood. The orcs in Thorn City - this fact still makes the people of the God of War cry.

Regarding how these chariots changed hands, the orcs in the city also have different opinions:
It is said that the chariot driver was originally an undercover agent of the Scourge, and took advantage of the unfortunate death of General Durst Lone Stone to find an opportunity to turn his back on the water;

It is said that Master Ner'zhul of the Scourge Corps performed miracles and suddenly turned the chariot driver into a zombie;
There is also the most absurd theory, that the group of human rogues broke into the city suddenly and hijacked the chariot parked behind the barracks...

All in all, these rebellious "blood and blood" chariots seem to be a true portrayal of the record of the "God of War" division in the past month, highlighting a "complete defeat" and "laughing generosity".

Of course, today is not the right day to recall the shameful defeat of "Pride of the God of War".

Because, this is the day when Bloodthorn City and the "Scourge Legion" started peace negotiations.

Regarding the arrival of this day, in fact, many folk political enthusiasts in the streets and alleys of Bloodthorn City have already expected it:

Since the fiasco of "Pride of War" and the death of the commander, the Glorious Federation has been unable to mobilize more manpower from the tense front line of the Central Plains to counter the rebellion in the south.

Since the skills are not as good as people, you can only swallow the bitter fruit:

Hurry up and squeeze your nose to make some conditions, and get back the supreme holy land of war as soon as possible. This is the right way for the Federation.

Even so, many people still have doubts about whether the negotiations can go smoothly:

After all, the tradition of the Glorious Federation is fighting rather than negotiation. For a group of traitors who have defiled the corpses of shaman masters and heroic warriors, the most reasonable way to deal with them is definitely to smash their bones to pieces, not to be surrounded by olive branches and flowers I Lennon.

——There are even many rumors that the so-called "peace negotiation" is just a cover, and the true intention of the Glorious Federation is to take this opportunity to set up a grand feast and kill "Master Ner'zhul", the source of all evil, on the spot!
The people in the world are noisy, and the streets are noisy, but the banner of "Bloodthorn City and Scourge Legion Peace Talks on Dispute Resolution" was hung above the porch of the Blood Temple after all.

But just when all the orcs who watched the excitement thought that the first to appear would be the federal representative of this negotiation—the mayor of Bloodthorn City, or the mysterious leader of the Scourge Legion, "Master Ner'zhul", the first to appear in the Blood St. The ones who showed up at the entrance of the hall were actually a group of imperial humans.

Chris Mann wore a ribbon with the words "Special Envoy of the Frost Maple Ridge Lord, Ambassador of Peace Negotiations" on his shoulders, and an olive branch around his neck. He swaggered out of the gate of the temple, and on behalf of Master Ner'zhul of the Scourge, he welcomed the Lord of Bloodthorn City. Mr. entered the Temple of Blood to negotiate.

A group of humans mediates the dispute between the two groups of orcs... In the tune of "The Lord and the Lord Before the Horse" played by the zombie shamans in unison, all the orcs watching on both sides of the temple street have an illusory feeling of incompatibility. realism.
