industrial lord

Chapter 140

The sun rose as usual.

At six o'clock in the morning, the sound of bells echoed in the room, Baron Christian woke up from the soft and comfortable bed and started a new day.

He didn't sleep well last night. The vibration from the next room made him think that there was an earthquake. It wasn't until the vibration lasted for more than two hours that he was sure that it was not an earthquake, but a human earthquake.

But there was nothing he could do about it. The top floor of this Sardinian-owned hotel was divided into two luxury suites, and the people living next door must be rich or expensive.

As the prince's diplomat, Christian is well aware of his current situation, and will not cause trouble if he can.

At 06:30, under the service of his servants, Christian combed his hair meticulously and his clothes neatly. But he was still not satisfied, so he trimmed his beard with small scissors himself.

At [-]:[-], instead of having breakfast in his room, he came to the dining room on the first floor, where there was a novel talking machine.

There is also a note pasted next to the machine, which reads "I swear to the God of Light that there is no one in the box - Vito you can absolutely trust".

When Christian came to the hotel last night, he heard the voice of Archbishop Victor explaining the "Holy Scripture" from inside, so he spent a gold coin to ask the boss that the radio program started at seven in the morning and ended at ten in the evening.

So he waited early in the dining room, hoping to hear what the machine would say in the morning.

The diplomat arranged his own time. If it was interesting, he would sit until eleven o'clock. It would not be too late to go to the castle to formally submit the letter of challenge to Baron Wesson at that time.

There were quite a few people who thought the same as him. At 45:[-], the restaurant was full of people, and the boss, Vito, also turned on the switch in advance.

If it was in the old days, there would be a burst of music on the radio at this time, and this is the person at the radio station testing the equipment.

However, as soon as the radio was turned on today, a sharp male voice came from inside: "Wesson Radio Station, Wesson Radio Station, listeners, the radio station will broadcast an important announcement at [-]:[-] in the morning."

Everyone in the room was stunned. The voice was repeated several times before they realized it, and there was a lot of discussion for a while.

Christian frowned, feeling something bad in his heart.

He thought to himself, could it be that Baron Wesson called on everyone to beat him up, what can't a child do in a fit of anger?
But he still finished today's breakfast - pea and carrot noodles - in a leisurely manner, and then listened to what was important.

It turned out that Christian was right to finish his breakfast by 07:30, avoiding the tragic end of being choked to death.

At 29:[-], all the places with radios in Wesson Territory were full of people, and the villagers in the village gathered in front of the loudspeakers in the village square.

Far away in Lol, Maria nervously waited quietly with her parents with three Bichon Frizes in her arms.

At 07:30, there was a burst of impassioned music on the radio, and ten seconds later, the announcer's deep voice sounded: "Please pay attention! Please pay attention!"

"This is the city of Wessenburg, and here is an important piece of news."

"Brothers and sisters of Wessen, all those who uphold justice, love peace, and are kind."

"Yesterday, April 1026, 4, at 18 a.m., without any announcement or warning, the allied forces of the Land of Ries, the Land of Ansbach, the Land of Eichstätter, the Land of Roth, and the Land of Fürth invaded Our homes, and burned: villages of Natis, Balland, Skogas, Hilos, etc.”

"Wessen led the people to resist the invasion of the Allied Forces to defend their homeland. Our actions are just. The enemy's plot will be smashed and victory will belong to us!"

For a moment, the entire Wesen collar suddenly fell silent.

The cloud of war has been floating for two years, and now, the thunder has finally settled.

It was as if a tsunami had set off in the city of Wessenburg, and the angry roars grew from small to loud, from far to near.

Countless people rushed onto the street, gathered in the central square, waved their arms, and roared.

Administrator Frick appeared in front of the Executive Yuan building above the square and began to announce wartime management measures, and the voice appeared on the radio at the same time.

Christian sat in a daze for half an hour, the back of his clothes soaked in cold sweat.

He couldn't figure it out. He clearly agreed to make an appointment to meet with Baron Wesson today, send the letter of war tomorrow, and fight the day after tomorrow. Why did the war start yesterday? Then what is the matter of coming here?
"Quick!" he said to the servant behind him, "Get the carriage ready and go to the castle!"

The carriage was soon ready, but the intersection below the castle and the bank beside the road had been surrounded by roadblocks used by the city defense army. It was forbidden to enter by horse and carriage, only on foot.

Christian said to the officers of the city defense army: "I am the messenger, I want to see Baron Wesson!"

The officer asked him, "Do you have an appointment?"

Christian replied helplessly: "No."

The officer said at once: "You can't see the baron without an appointment."

Christian immediately asked, "Where should I make an appointment?"

The officer replied: "Appointments are now suspended."

Now Christian became anxious, thinking that he was in Cologne City, with the support of His Royal Highness, and shouted at the officer angrily: "I must see Baron Wesson today, if you can't make the decision, let someone who can make the decision." Someone come talk to me!"

At this time, a soldier next to him said, "This man is so anxious to see the master, is he an assassin?"

As soon as the officer heard this, he stepped back a few steps, blew his whistle, and a large group of people immediately surrounded him.

The shield soldier in the front held a heavy tower shield in his hand. There were rows of spikes on the shield surface, and a frame with wheels underneath. In the shortest time, a circle of shield walls was erected. Plug connection.

Spears protruded from the gaps between the tower shields, and the spearheads flashed with electric sparks.

Surrounded by them, Christian and his servants didn't know what to do for a while.

In the end, Frick sent someone over after receiving the news, and the two met in front of the gate of the Executive Yuan.

On behalf of Baron Wesson, Frick took the declaration of war from Baron Christian. After reading it once, he fell to the ground in front of everyone in the square, pointed at the other party's nose and cursed: "Shameless! This is The most shameless and despicable evil deeds since the creation of the God of Light!! Even now, you still want to deceive us!!!"

Although the people in the square didn't know what this man sent, they just wanted to scold him at this moment, and the scolding was endless for a while.

Christian knew he was at fault first, so he couldn't justify himself, so he could only say a few polite words, and then left the angry city immediately.
