The Zunzhongdao incident also happened in the previous life, and it broke out a year and a half earlier than in the previous life.
Because at that time, Aslan had just led the Mero region to complete its rise.
At that time, he was not a disciple of the Marquis of Medea, and the person involved in the conflict was not Governor Jacksu. Due to the powerful strength of the Marquis of Medea, Aslan simply gave in.
Now events are completely different.
The Marquis of Medea is his teacher, and he will definitely be on his side regardless of general principles, so the only thing Aslan has to do is to change the general direction of the incident.
Thus diverting the attention of the nobles in Belgium.
Aslan took a deep breath, slammed the table, tossed his coat, and walked to the bedroom.
Essien and Wilhelm looked at each other, nervousness showing on their faces.
After a while, Aslan walked out in full military uniform, surprising Wilson and Essien.
"Lord, please don't act out of emotion."
Essien and Willson knelt down in front of Aslan one after another, blocking Aslan's way.
Aslan looked at the two old men kneeling on the ground in front of him, sighed and said, "I don't have the final say on this matter. Let the people make the decision!"
Essien and Wilson looked at each other in confusion.
What does this sentence mean, Lord?
"Ring the big bell, I have something to say, and notify all the officers in the city to come over." Aslan said to Bos outside the door.
"yes!"
Baos won't think so much, he will do whatever the lord tells him to do!
The bell at the top of the City Lord's Mansion rang continuously, and many people quickly put down their work and went to the City Lord's Mansion. Soon, tens of thousands of people gathered outside the City Lord's Mansion.
Concas brought her family members over to watch, and saw that her precious daughter had put on the military uniform and armor of the Valkyries, and was following the female soldiers to maintain order at the scene.
Aslan stood in front of the terrace in military uniform, with an unprecedented serious expression on his face, and placed his hands on the guardrail of the terrace.
"I just received news that several people in Max Town accidentally blocked Governor Jacksu's way, and Governor Jacksu wants to hang them."
There was an uproar in the square, but many people fell silent and looked at the man on the balcony.
"Both Essien and Wilson advised me not to intervene and to pretend to be deaf and dumb, just so as not to drag the Mero region into the whirlpool of war. This is indeed the best choice for the entire Mero region."
Aslan's voice was hoarse, but it gave people an unprecedented shock.
"I have also thought twice about whether it is worth doing this for a few ordinary citizens."
"I figured out one thing just now. These are not just a few people. If I really give up on them, it will be easier to give up when I face ten, hundreds, or even tens of millions of people in the future."
This sentence made the whole square fall into silence, and Wilson and Essien were also silent.
They are indeed doing it for the good of the Merlot region, but it is also very likely that this will change the lord who always loves his people like his own son.
When the people can be abandoned at will, will Aslan still be the same Aslan who loves his people like his own son?
Everyone was lost in thought, because no one hoped that he would be the one abandoned.
"So I decided to go to Billy City and do my best to save them. This may drag the entire Melo region into the quagmire of war. I hope the people can forgive me."
After Aslan finished speaking, he bowed deeply.
Koncas was shocked. He rubbed his eyes subconsciously. Is the lord going crazy?
We want to go to war with the Kes region for the lives of a few untouchables.
A martyr's child walked out of the crowd, clenched his fists, and yelled at Aslan on the terrace.
"No retreat!"
This gesture, this tone.
Aslan reminded many of the battle at the Meili River.
At that time, Aslan's reason for going to war was for the people who were not citizens of the territory, and he also brought home the people who were abducted from the Billy area.
The lord never abandoned them.
What reason do they have for abandoning their lord?
"No retreat!"
A disabled veteran of the Battle of the Meili River stood up and shouted.
"No retreat!"
Soon, the message "No retreat!" slowly spread throughout the square.
Everyone, male, female, old and young, was shouting.
"Thanks!"
"The whole army is ready for war. All troops will take their equipment and follow me to Billy City." Aslan shouted loudly, flicked the cloak behind his back, and turned around to leave.
The people in the square quickly dispersed, especially some men who had joined the militia. They quickly ran to the streets where they were located to report, and then ran collectively to the militia training camp.
Militiamen are just farmers on weekdays, but they need to spare two hours a day to participate in training and practice combat skills.
Because in the future, when recruiting troops, each army will give priority to selecting from the militia.
To put it simply, it is a reserve force. In case of war, the militia troops can be quickly summoned into an army, and veterans of the active service units can be sent to the reserve department to serve as officers, so that a combat-effective force can be quickly formed.
Aslan wants to pull all the troops in the Melo region to the city of Pele, not to attack the city, but to show strength to the Marquis of Medea and Governor Jacksu.
He wants Marquis Medea to understand that the Melo region will definitely be the key to her defeating the Kes region in the future, and at the same time, he also wants Governor Jacksu to understand that Aslan has the power to change the situation of both sides.
Aslan came out of the city lord's palace. Apart from the forty knight guards, the first troops to gather around him were actually the Valkyrie troops.
The soldiers of the city defense army will be one step later.
Aslan nodded to Ashley, who waved excitedly, and the whole army boarded the military vehicle.
Nowadays, more than half of the road from Merlo Town to Billy Town has been converted into cement road. The road is wide and flat, most suitable for horse-drawn carriages.
Therefore, in order to ensure the mobility of troops in various towns, the Mero area has been equipped with a large number of troop carriages.
This kind of carriage is mainly used for drafting horses. The carriage is seven meters long and three meters wide. Its shape is similar to the body of a dump truck. There are a row of wooden benches installed on both sides to facilitate soldiers to ride. In the middle, supplies and soldiers' equipment can be placed.
.
At most, forty soldiers could be transported in one breath. Because the cart was drawn by a horse, although it ensured sufficient strength, the speed was not as fast as that of a war horse. The speed was about fifty kilometers per hour.
Aslan got on his horse and said to Ashley and Willick: "I'll set off first, and you guys rush to Billy City as quickly as possible."
"Yes! Lord Lord."
As soon as Aslan left, Concas and Valentine chased Aslan with the remaining twenty or so knights in the family.
