Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 203:

The news spread, and the world was in an uproar.

In this world, wars are commonplace, and losing a family is not rare. However, regardless of the outcome, just to destroy the opponent’s logistics and attack the opponent’s will to war, they carried out large-scale massacres of civilians, and even completely destroyed villages and towns. This behavior has seriously broken through the long-standing “convention”. .

Generally speaking, this kind of thing mostly happens outside of the main plane. Only those groups that use small worlds as their bases and fight against each other will have such a cruel approach. And in the main plane, even elemental creatures with weak emotions, and even evil and ferocious demons, would not do such a thing-because it is meaningless.

What’s the use of killing? Could human flesh taste better than other meats? Even if human flesh is more delicious, isn’t it that other worlds do not have humans to reproduce, and they break into the world with great effort and cost just to eat a fresh bite?

If anyone does this, even in the devil, he definitely belongs to the “sickness, need to be cured” type.

Generally speaking, even for evil creatures in the lower realm, such as demons, their method is to kill humans and take their souls away to supplement their subordinates. And simply killing people is really… rare.

In fact, this is no longer a “rare” problem, but a frenzy.

The news spread to the aristocratic territory, and the great aristocrats who had discussed the matter with Count House were also dumbfounded. They thought that Earl House would only do ordinary burning, killing and looting, but unexpectedly, this guy turned out to be a fiend, and almost no one left, men, women, young and old who invaded the troops. Even if you want to burn all houses and farmland, kill all the livestock, even the water source has to be polluted. If it weren’t for their limited time, I’m afraid the farmland would also be damaged by spells.

“This…this is…really…” At the meeting of the great aristocrats, the Marquis of Yuk shook his head a few times, not knowing what to say, and in the end just repeated “really” and couldn’t say goodbye. Come.

“We shouldn’t have promised him at the beginning!” said a local count hatefully, his tone full of resentment, “I didn’t expect him to be so murderous! After these few battles, he was afraid of killing There are thousands of people.”

“According to the statement from the north, there are almost 6,000 people.” A central count replied, “Now we are very passive and embarrassed…”

He is currently in charge of diplomacy with the merchant faction. It is said that the strength of the two sides is equal. Even if diplomatic work does not take advantage, it should not be a disadvantage. But because of the crazy behavior of Earl House, the noble faction suffers a lot in diplomacy. Not only the merchant faction is furious, but even the churches of many good gods are putting pressure on them.

The development of things to this point is beyond their imagination. They thought that no matter how cruel Earl House was, he would harass the place when he got up to the sky. Then he would kill 30 or 50 people in each place to cause riots and then left. When discussing at the beginning, Earl House clearly told them like this. Said.

In theory, killing all the people in one place is far better than killing a small part of them. This saves time and effort, and allows the rest of the people to spread the fear. If people are killed directly, the main thing that can spread is hatred.

Earl House what they want is to spread fear, thereby attacking the merchants’ will to war, and at the same time create chaos and destroy the merchants’ logistics. Just slaughtering the past village by town can not achieve such an effect at all.

At present, the most uncomfortable thing is not the merchant group, but the earl in the aristocratic group who is responsible for diplomacy. On the one hand, he wanted to appease the merchant diplomat who appeared like “I’m going to explode”, on the other hand, he had to explain to the churches of the good gods to prevent the nobles from becoming the public enemy of the society, and on the other hand, he had to work hard to chase after them. The initial diplomatic goal… He felt that among all diplomats throughout the ages, there was no second one as miserable as himself.

Actually, he is not the worst. After all, the aristocratic faction is still strong and can stand the scene. Diplomats from such weak countries are really miserable. They are pure decorations, and they are often humiliated.

Faced with the madness of Earl House, the merchant sent a natural rage and hurriedly formed the rapid mobile force, and then hurriedly sent them out, chasing after Earl House and their destruction all the way, trying to chase Get on them and annihilate them in one fell swoop.

A few days later, news came again.

The rapid mobile force of the merchant faction did catch up with the rapid mobile force of the nobleman led by Earl House, and the two sides fought a battle in a wilderness. However, as a result of the war, the rapid mobile force built by the merchants with a lot of money completely collapsed. Except for the few lucky ones who had teleporting spells or teleporting scrolls, they survived, and nearly three hundred people were wiped out.

This news shocked the merchant council, and the nobles were also in an uproar.

In the war, the gap in the number of people cannot be ignored. The rapid mobility force of the noble faction only had about two hundred men, while the merchant faction had 300 men, which was half the manpower. In terms of equipment, the wealthy merchant faction, equipped with weapons, armor, war horses and consumables for the rapid mobile force, is definitely not inferior to the noble faction. In terms of quality, although the merchant faction has fallen behind, they have many long-term cooperative mercenary organizations, and they mobilize elite troops. It is said that they will only be stronger than the mob organized by the noble faction by “cleaning inventory”. .

But the result was completely reversed. The aristocratic mobile unit, which was supposed to be defeated, was defeated. Instead, the merchant faction, which had the upper hand regardless of manpower and material resources, was defeated and defeated, and almost completely wiped out.

This is incredible, but it is an iron fact.

Faced with this fact, the nobles were also a little at a loss.

“What should be done?” At the meeting of the great nobles, the Marquis of Gordon asked, “Let’s discuss and discuss, what is the right thing to do in this situation?”

“First of all, we must change our minds.” A local earl said, “Although House’s approach is indeed excessive, but we have to admit that he is very strong, strong…really enough to change this The end of the war.”

Look at me, nobles, and I will look at you, nodding silently.

“Originally, we and the group of merchants in the north were evenly matched, and no one can do nothing. But with him and his army, the logistics of the merchants will definitely go wrong, and the will to war will be greatly affected. Hit. In this case, we should be able to take advantage of the final signing of the agreement.” The earl paused and emphasized, “It is not a small bargain, but a big bargain!”

“We have no objection to this.” A centralist earl said, “But the problem is that he puts a lot of pressure on us.”

“Yes~IndoMTL.com~He has brought us a lot of pressure and a lot of trouble. But, he can also bring us victory!” The previous earl emphasized, “Victory!”

The nobles are silent. Indeed, for war, victory is the most important thing.

No matter what you do, there is no point in not winning.

Even if you have to pay a high price, it is worth it to win.

Finally, the great nobles passed the resolution to withstand the pressure from all sides and delay as much as possible for Earl House so that they can get more results.

As for morality and conscience, they don’t have much of this kind of thing in the first place, and the rest, in order to win the war, don’t care about selling it again…
