Chapter 313 Engagement Ceremony
There shouldn't be any harm in just giving it a try.

So he said to His Majesty Belinsky: "Maybe you can let me have a chat with them."

Belinsky was overjoyed: "Plosen's officers have a good impression of you. If you go and talk to them, you may indeed instigate them to rebel."

Wang Zhong: "No, most of the officers should be nobles, right? They should not treason for various reasons. I can talk to the Ploson soldiers, especially those civilians from the lower classes."

Belinsky raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: "First of all, I'm not questioning your ability. I'm just curious about how you plan to start."

Olga was also listening expectantly. It seemed that she was really eager to know what Wang Zhong planned to do.

Wang Zhong: "I plan to start from two directions. First, I have witnessed a lot of atrocities committed by the Prosen Army. People with conscience will definitely suffer very much in the Prosen Army. I plan to find these people. .

“Secondly, most of the dividends from Prosen’s expansion must have been retained by the upper class. As long as the soldiers at the bottom realize that the benefits they gained from fighting on the battlefield have been swallowed up by the upper class.

"We must let them understand that surrender is not treason. The real traitors are the generals who launched the war and exchanged the blood of the people of Prosen for their luxurious lives.

"They should organize the Prosen People's Army, fight back to the motherland, and guillotine the emperor."

Belinsky: "Look!"

Belinsky: "Aren't you going to wait a moment longer for the guests?"

Wang Zhong: "I'm just saying that there is a possibility that the Pulosen people will definitely try to form a puppet army as cannon fodder."

Olga craned her neck to look at the approaching car and asked, "Whose car do you think this is?"

No, I just cheated.

As the car approached, Olga recognized the person in the back seat before Lyudmila: "It's really Turgenev! Do you have such good eyesight?"

Bishop Lavkid had been listening to the conversation when he suddenly said: "They have indeed organized it. According to the intelligence we have obtained, there are many Ants in the large occupied cities such as Agsukov and Roniezh." People have become pseudo-militaries and pseudo-police.

Belinsky looked Wang Zhong up and down again: "What you said makes sense. Popov submitted a very detailed report before, called "Observations on General Rokossov's Working Methods", and introduced you carefully. methods of work which he believed were more effective than ten thousand sermons.

Wang Zhong: “Just having such an idea may not necessarily achieve it.”

Wang Zhong: "Look, since the Pulosen people can form the Eastern Battalion, we can also establish such a force. Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that someone will pretend to surrender and then defect on the battlefield. We have to screen carefully.

"I have read the description of your working methods in the report, and it is very good. I have ordered this report to be issued as an official document to every bishop accompanying the army, and to be fully promoted.

Wang Zhong: "Then let's start quickly."

Belinsky was speechless: "Okay, I will give you a note tomorrow. You can go to the prisoner of war camp and try your best. It doesn't matter even if you fail. I never expected to be able to do such an outrageous thing."

Wang Zhong had already used a plug-in to check who was sitting in the approaching car, and said confidently: "It's Turgenev and his adjutant."

He paused and changed the topic: "Let's discuss your engagement ceremony now. It's ready here."

Even though Belinsky was well-informed, his mouth opened wide after hearing Wang Zhong's words: "This... I just asked you to find a way to let the Prosen people enter our factory to produce things with peace of mind. You actually want to form Prosen People’s Army?”

"Also, such individual defections can be avoided by building a sense of collective honor."

"In addition, the insiders of the prisoner-of-war camp also sent information. There is a Khazalia man who goes to the place where local prisoners of war are held in Khazalia every day to mobilize the prisoners to join the Khazalia Free Army.

"Now you actually plan to instigate the Prosen prisoners to rebel and establish the Prosen People's Army?"

"There is also intelligence that the enemy has recruited 15 battalions of puppet troops from the surrendered troops and named them Dongfang Battalion."

As soon as he finished speaking, a military vehicle drove over along the road inside the manor.

Wang Zhong: “Of course, how can you spot the enemy general from such a distance if you have poor eyesight?

In fact, what Wang Zhong is talking about here is that he commanded the T34W for a counterattack for the first time in Loktov.

But Belinsky understood this as a joke and laughed.

Wang Zhong also laughed, after all, the matter of cheating cannot be explained clearly.

Before the Patriarch had finished laughing, another jeep arrived, filled with air force pilots.

The driver was Drachenko Grigojevich, commander of the 4th Attack Regiment, and a group of people, all pilots, were crammed into the back of the jeep like Indians.

Wang Zhong hurriedly shouted: "Drachenko! If your car overturns, a whole regiment of pilots will be wiped out. You will be responsible!"

Drachenko: "I will be dead by then, how can I be responsible?"

Wang Zhong: "I'm not kidding, don't give me that playful smile, be serious! Stop the car, get off the car, and pay attention to traffic safety! Even if you die, you should die in the sky! Don't waste your life in a car accident!"

Drachenko turned back to the pilots and said: "Did you hear that? General Rokossov asked us to die in the sky! Remember, the next time you are hit by a Prosin bullet, there will be enemy-occupied territory below. Don’t parachute, just rush down and hit a tank! Remember to pour all the bullets before hitting it!”

The pilots were excited: "This is what we were planning to do!"

"You can't be captured even if you die!"

Belinsky: "This is not good. You should come back as soon as possible. You can still escape when you get to the prisoner of war camp!"

Wang Zhong: "Also, even if you have to hit it, don't hit the tank. You may be able to damage the tank, but the Prosen people are very capable of repairing it and can repair it in a few days." No, don't choose the tank as the target. You should hit the oil, which is easy to catch fire and explode. The ammunition depot is also good. "

Drachenko: "The general thinks our target was poorly chosen! What do you say?"

"Then don't hit the tank. The general is an expert in this field!"

"Yes, hit the fuel!"

Wang Zhong: "But remember the premise for doing this: that is, you are sure that there is no way to parachute and land on friendly forces. To survive, you must ensure survival."

The pilots looked at each other, and finally Drachenko spoke on behalf of everyone: "Got it, General!"

Wang Zhong: "Speaking of which, how did you know that I was engaged today?"

"What Vasily said was yesterday at the Officers' Club in the city, the one next to the Grand Theater," Drachenko said.

Wang Zhong turned to look for Vasily and found that the boy had escaped.

Drachenko: "General, please spare Vasily, he just wants to make the girl happy!"

Good boy, make the girl happy with my things, just wait!

Wang Zhong opened the book of hatred and made a note to Vasily that he would wear small shoes for him one day.

Just then more cars came and drove into the manor.

From Wang Zhong's perspective, a large number of soldiers with names were running toward him, just like when it was time to spawn monsters in a tower defense game.

Also, both the Patriarch and the Tsar came, and now everyone in the city knew that Rokosov was getting engaged.

The senior executives who don't go to the Rokosov Manor now are either the kind who have to be on duty at key positions, or they have something wrong with them.

Wang Zhong saw this posture and asked Lyudmila for her opinion: "How about delaying it for an hour? This way there won't be any embarrassment if someone fails to catch up."

Lyudmila nodded: "Okay. You come to receive the gentlemen, and I will entertain their women."

Wang Zhong gave a thumbs up.

----

An hour later, the engagement ceremony finally began. The originally prepared ceremony venue was simply not enough, so it was moved to the large ballroom of the manor - because Wang Zhong rarely held dances after taking over the manor, the ballroom had been idle for a long time.

In addition, the manor has reduced the number of maids, and areas that are not in use are generally not cleaned. The ballroom has also been left here to collect dust for a long time, and now it is temporarily cleaned.

Although it was temporarily moved to a ballroom, the secular priests who came with the Patriarch were all professionals and quickly built a very formal altar in the ballroom.

The ceremony personnel were also arranged according to the highest standards. There were four priests ringing the bells, standing at the four corners of the altar.

Belinsky put on his solemn robe, stood on the altar, and looked at the guests.

Even the unruly pilots lowered their heads.

Because it was just an engagement and there was no admission, Wang Zhong and Lyudmila stood directly in front of the altar.

Belinsky began to pray: "Today, under everyone's watch, another new couple came together because of their common interests. I witnessed the bud and growth of their love. I know that this is not just caused by the joy of reproduction. The illusion!”

Wang Zhong thought to himself, isn’t this sermon a bit strange?

Where is the Lord? Don’t you mention the Lord even a word in your sermon?
You secularists are too secular, right?

"Now, with everyone's witness and blessing, they make a sacred oath!"

As he spoke, a priest held a square plate covered with velvet, with two rings on it.

Because Wang Zhong is from Seris, he thinks of red when it comes to engagement. He is a little uncomfortable seeing blue velvet.

Belinsky came to the two of them and put the engagement rings on the ring fingers of their right hands.

Eastern Saints engagement rings are worn on the ring finger of the right hand by both men and women.

Belinsky: "May everyone bless you!"

It’s everyone, not the Lord.

In a world where there are miracles, where God is not mentioned once in church prayers, who is St. Andrew who founded secularism?
Isn't he a fellow countryman?
Wang Zhong muttered in his heart.

At this time, Belinsky completed the last step and tapped the foreheads of Wang Zhong and Lyudmila respectively with his fingers dipped in holy water.

Belinsky: "I'm looking forward to the day when your children will be baptized."

As soon as Wang Zhong heard about baptism, he thought of the classic montage in "The Godfather". On one side, a child was baptized, and the new generation of godfathers played by Al Pacino solemnly swore in the hymn. All enemies of the Leoni family were wiped out.

Wang Zhong: "I'm looking forward to it too."
