After that there was a long silence.
Anna's eyes were not as calm as he imagined. In the silent eyes, undercurrents surged under the blue lake, with worries and fears inside, but more of determination, it was because of this that her expression was so firm.
As time passes quietly, this feeling becomes stronger and stronger.
Roland finally realized that he might not be able to convince her.
He closed his eyes and sighed.
OK, but you have to agree to me.
you say.
If something happens on the battlefield... Roland licked his lips, I mean, if I am unfortunate...
If something like that really happened, I would leave the North immediately, Anna said bluntly.
Roland couldn't help but be stunned.
Are you worried that I will take revenge to the church and end up in vain?She rubbed his cheeks, and the nightingale and the ashes could do that.I will return to the West as soon as possible, and then take everyone who is willing to follow you to Sleeping Island, where I will take root and continue to fight against the Holy City.Your Majesty, although I want to be with you, I know you will never want to see this.She paused at this point, so I can promise you that before the world you want comes, I will continue to walk on your behalf until the witch and ordinary people can live together without restraint.
He didn't answer, nor did he need to answer... Anna's growth exceeded his imagination, and this was the best reward for him to come to this world.
She reached out and unbuttoned Roland's clothes.
There is no need to say anything.
The two of them hugged and kissed each other and fell on the bed.
The black fire pulled down the curtains and moved the clothes and bedding aside. Destiny was firmly connected at this moment, proof of the stars in the sky.
……
Two days later, Roland gave his last speech before the war in the square.
The leaders who heard the news squeezed the square into pieces. After a year and a half, the border town of the past no longer existed, replaced by the prosperous and busy city of Wu Winter. The people's lives have changed drastically, and Roland's reputation has also risen to an unprecedented height.
My leaders, good morning, he stepped onto the podium and immediately received overwhelming cheers.
Long live the king!
Long live His Majesty Roland!
There is no need for echo as a support, nor does it require any encouragement. People consciously and enthusiastically make respectful calls, and their waving hands are like a surging ocean.
It took half a quarter of an hour before the sound gradually subsided.
You should have known it. Roland looked around the countless pairs of respectful eyes below the audience and said in a deep voice, the kingdom will usher in a self-defense war against the invaders, and the enemy is the holy city of Hermes, which has annexed Yongdong and the heart of the wolf!Now only Gray Castle and Dawn survive in the four kingdoms, and now their targets are aimed at us!
I know that some of you have believed in God and the Church, and that is not shameful!Your kindness is being used and your expectations are being deceived. Don’t I blame the liars and robbers, but instead blame you as victims?Of course not!He raised his fist and the church should pay the price for it!Just selling the God’s Punishment Stone, they have to earn hundreds of thousands of golden dragons every year and this money should belong to you!
Why?The reason is very simple. The nobles are unwilling to spend a considerable amount of extra money to buy the divine stone, so they naturally transfer this part of the expenses to the people, increasing taxes, increasing payments, confiscations, and forcing them to seize them. These are the reasons!And it is far more than the divine stone. It is a church building, a resident priest, and a baptism of holy water. I believe you are not unfamiliar with these forced enlistments!
When it comes to what the people are most likely to understand and hate the most, it must be exploitation and oppression.
The church's methods are not as blatant as the nobles, but in the eyes of Roland, who has been through many battles, it is no difficulty to expose this thin layer of fig leaf, and it is also easy to pour a few basins of sewage at the same time.
The church promised that this money would be exchanged for God's blessing, but what was the result?Before I came to the town, people were always unable to eat and wear and not warm. Famine and cold would still come as promised in every evil moon. Those who could not survive would always close their eyes. As for those who survived... is it really because of the help of the church or the gods?No, they did nothing!Roland raised the volume sharply, and the only thing they were interested in was to suck your blood!
Local residents are in the spotlight for these things, and most refugees from other cities have experienced the same experience.
Angry noise broke out in the square, and everyone attributed the pain they had suffered in the past to the church.
So I will never surrender, let alone lose to such a blood-sucking worm!Roland shouted with his fists, "The First Army will crush them to powder, and no one dares to plunder my people anymore. You don't have to worry about paying money to build a church, or to redeem your sins, because these shit taxes will disappear completely in front of the new gray castle!
Facts have proved that without a church, Winter City will become better without a good city, and so will other cities!
It is your hands and your spirit, not those illusory things that create all this. This is why I repeatedly emphasize the glory of labor.Only labor can create wealth, and you are extremely glorious workers. Please feel honored for this. Without you, there would be no prosperity without Winter City today!
He pressed down with both hands to stop the voice of the leaders, so the First Army set out and they will go to the north to fight against the church that looked at it all.If we lose, we will lose everything we have and return to the poor and difficult days of the past... Tell me loudly, are you willing to go back to the past?
The answer is self-evident.
No, your majesty, we will fight the church to the end!
Kill them all!
Drive them out of the Gray Castle!
Defend His Majesty Roland to the death!
There were a variety of answers in the audience, but everyone's expressions were particularly consistent. They were willing to defend everything that was hard-won.
Well said, I don’t need you to come on the field to kill the enemy. That is the responsibility of the First Army, and you don’t have to pay additional war taxes, that is the way the enemy does.You just need to continue to devote yourself to the construction and production of Wu Winter City as before, which is the best help to your relatives fighting on the front line.Roland stroked his right hand with his chest and then saluted, and we will surely win!Long live the Greycastle Kingdom!
victory!
Long live!
The people sang these two words repeatedly until Roland left for a long time.
In the afternoon of the same day, the last group of soldiers boarded the paddle ship, and the army set off with the Roland as its flagship.
Target Valley Town!
Anna's eyes were not as calm as he imagined. In the silent eyes, undercurrents surged under the blue lake, with worries and fears inside, but more of determination, it was because of this that her expression was so firm.
