Cheerdan''s worry is very necessary. Manda is also aware of the seriousness of the problem. Transporting so many weapons to the king''s capital proves that the divine punishment church is likely to go to war with the king.
For this battle, Manda''s position is very firm. She must stand on the king''s side and find a suitable opportunity to escape.
But when did the king have an army of 1000 people? This matter is worth thinking deeply. It seems that there are many secrets in the west of the city.
Manda is discussing countermeasures with cheerdan. Suddenly, yodora walked into the room in a little panic: "the king sent you to the palace as soon as possible."
Manda''s head buzzed!
What happened? Why go to the palace in the middle of the night? Did the robbery come to light?
Seeing the cold sweat on Manda''s head, cheerdan said in a aside way: "Sir, don''t panic. What we rob is the money of the divine Punisher. Even if we are really found, the king won''t blame us. We just take out part of the money and give it to the king."
Giving the money to the king is tantamount to admitting the robbery. Acting without authorization will certainly lead to the king''s dissatisfaction and leave such a serious handle. It will also become a means for the king to threaten himself in the future. When a war breaks out, as long as the king makes the news public, Manda will naturally become the sworn enemy of the punisher, and there will be no chance to get rid of the war at that time.
I can''t admit it, I can''t admit it! Manda came to the palace with anxiety, but found that things were different from what he thought.
General long Gesen and the Government Secretary lesio were present, and Sheriff Stanton was also present. Including Manda, these four officials were the king''s staunch confidants. The purpose of gathering them together was not to ask for guilt, but to discuss major issues.
Long Gesen received the news. A group of divine punishers bought a batch of weapons from Jinguang city. Someone saw their tracks on the official road leading to the king''s capital.
The news came a little late. No one expected that these weapons had been robbed by Manda. Manda naturally wouldn''t tell the truth. She could only watch the king jump up and down with concern.
"What do they want to do? Do they want to occupy the palace? Do they want to steal the kingdom? The weapons of a thousand people? Do they hide a thousand soldiers in the king?"
Longersen said: "Your Majesty, as far as I know, there are more than 50000 God punished believers in the king''s capital. It is not difficult to select 1000 soldiers. Moreover, I heard that a group of businessmen bought tens of millions of pounds of grain from the king''s capital a few days ago. It is likely that God punished people are preparing for war."
Manda agreed: "yes, they bought so much food and weapons, just preparing for war!"
In fact, Manda bought all the food. He sent the caravan to the begmia mountain in batches, but since the general spoke, it was natural to blame the God Punisher.
The king paced back and forth in the meeting, sat back on the throne and said to longson, "what are you going to do?"
Longesen said, "Your Majesty has 3000 Golden Lion and iron guards, and I have 400 wind warriors in my hand. As long as we move fast enough, we can wipe out the punishers in the king''s capital."
Longesen is worthy of being the best general of Romulus. When the enemy''s plan fails, direct preemption is the wisest choice.
Unfortunately, the Minister of state has another opinion: "Your Majesty, this matter must be taken seriously. If we really fight with the divine Punisher in the king''s capital according to general longson, it is tantamount to going to war with the Pope. I''m afraid we can''t compete with the divine punishing holy state with our current strength."
The holy land of divine punishment is a country under the rule of the Pope. It has a small land area and a small population, but because it enjoys the worship of various countries, it has very strong economic strength. Although Roma road country is the largest country on origino continent, it can the current strength of the king. It is really not the opponent of the emperor unless the whole ROM road country is united.
The general''s confidence comes from this: "Your Majesty, as long as you lead us to eliminate the divine punisher of the king''s capital, all the people of Roma will fight for you! All the enemies who set foot on the kingdom will be dead, including the Pope himself!"
These words made the king''s blood boil, but the government minister watered out the blood with a basin of cold water.
"Your majesty! If you really want to go to war with the Pope, you must consult with local lords and get the support of at least three archdukes and several marques, otherwise it will become a tragedy like gassac."
Thinking of gesack, the king counseled again. He wanted to write a letter to the three Archduke first and listen to their opinions.
Can they have a wool opinion? The king''s own attitude is not clear. Do you expect the Archduke to take the initiative to declare war on the punisher?
Looking at the trembling expression of the Minister of state and the appearance of the king at both ends, Manda suddenly realized that gaisak did not die in the hands of the divine Punisher. With such advice, he had no reason not to die.
The letter to the Archduke has been written, but the immediate things can not be ignored. The government minister suggested that we should go out of the city immediately, intercept the weapons of the divine Punisher, and ask the divine Punisher to give a reasonable explanation on the basis of finding out the truth.
Manda is getting angry and happy. Do you want to find out the truth about wool? Want a wool explanation? Is the knife holder neck still waiting for someone to give you a reason?
I have to admit that long Gesen has a good spirit. He hasn''t been angry with the government minister for so many years!
But he was angry. The next thing was troublesome. The Government Secretary entrusted this glorious task to Manda.
"Viscount munchke, with two hundred soldiers, went out of the city overnight with Baron Stanton. He must cut off these weapons."
It''s a disaster. Manda has robbed the weapons. He can bring the weapons back to the king to explain, but what should the divine Punisher who was killed by him say? When the two sides sit down and negotiate, they will definitely be the victims.
The king turned his eyes to Manda and Stanton. Stanton''s legs were shaking violently. He had never fought. This kind of thing was obviously beyond his tolerance.
Seeing Stanton''s performance, Manda suddenly came up with a good strategy:
"General, what kind of weapon did the divine Punisher buy?"
"I''ve only received rough information, but I don''t know the details," longson said
Manda felt at ease when she heard the speech. If only she didn''t know the details, there was room for fabrication.
"Your Majesty, I''m willing to go out of the city to stop the punisher, but the soldiers don''t take it. Just take my subordinates."
"Your subordinates?" the king was stunned. "In addition to a dozen law enforcement officers and several servants, what subordinates do you have? What can those guys do? What do you take to stop the divine Punisher?"
Manda said, "the law enforcement officer has never fought a war. It''s really useless, but my servant and I have suppressed bandits together. They know how to fight a war. I''ll try my best to hold the punisher. If I can''t win, I''ll send the news back to the king''s capital. At that time, please send troops to support me."
"Why don''t you take the soldiers?" said the minister
Manda said, "Lord lesio, which way do you think the divine Punisher will send these weapons to the king''s capital?"
The government secretary did not think about cableway: "it must be from the west of the city, otherwise we can''t avoid inventory."
"Since we are going to transport weapons from the west of the city, we will step up our vigilance outside the west of the city. If I take my soldiers to intercept them with great fanfare, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the divine Punisher. If the divine Punisher jumps over the wall and starts first, the King''s capital will be in danger."
Manda''s reason is impeccable, but unexpectedly, the government minister still raised an idiot question: "how can the divine Punisher start first before the weapons have arrived in the king''s capital?"
Manda scolded in her heart: are you a pig?
Longesen patiently explained to the government minister: "the other party has made 90% preparation. Even if the last 10% preparation is not done, it also has the strength to start a war against us. Munchke is right. We can''t arouse the other party''s suspicion. At the same time, we should step up the alert of the king''s capital."
The king nodded and said, "krech munchke, the glory of the kingdom is now entrusted to you."
