The bloody massacre continued all night. In the early morning, the entire city of Kislev was like a city in ruins. The corpses of dead civilians fell on the ground everywhere, and the streets and alleys were full of bloody corpses.
After a night of bloody suppression, the civilian area seemed to have experienced a looting. The burned houses, collapsed beams and walls were shocking. The smoke rose from the ruins, and the burned warehouses, shops, houses, and stables were still buried in the ashes.
There is residual warmth.
Under the protection of the knights, Rhodes walked into the civilian area where the riot was suppressed last night. Under his feet was the charred land. The soldiers were cleaning up the corpses, and they couldn't tell which ones were the former Moorish thugs and which ones were innocent civilians. In short,
After a night of massacre, many civilians must have been accidentally killed.
A mother and child sat curled up in the burnt corner. The woman held a child of several years old in her arms. He could not imagine what kind of suffering they had gone through last night... The scene in front of him could not help but make Rhodes extremely sad. Sometimes,
In order to restore order, one has to be cruel... Destruction and prosperity are just reincarnation...
Thinking of this, Rhodes couldn't help but squat down and use his rough hands to cover the mother's eyes that refused to close until she died.
"Great Lord, the number of dead is being counted, but I'm afraid the specific number cannot be absolutely accurate, because, what you saw..."
The knight captain Virgil on the side reported helplessly.
Rhodes had no time to listen, he only thought about how to rebuild this place. This kingdom had gone through too many hardships, and now, both kings were dead. What was left was how to save Kislev from the chaos.
"I know that many people can't even find their bodies."
Rhodes answered the call——
"The remaining bodies were gathered together and burned."
"In addition, gather together all the orphans who lost their parents in the riots and give them to Alves, so that he can find ways to raise money to build orphanages to take in these children."
As Rhodes spoke, the clerk beside him quickly picked up a quill and quickly wrote it down.
"So, what to do with the remaining Moorish temples?"
Virgil continued to ask.
"We must all protect them and no one is allowed to disturb the Moorish prayers."
"this?"
Virgil looked confused. Last night, they slaughtered the Moors crazily, but this morning, the great lord actually wanted to protect them?
"Did I not speak clearly enough?"
Rhodes stopped and asked.
"No, no, no... you made it very clear. I will do it..."
Virgil immediately accepted the order.
In fact, Rhodes knew that the large-scale killing last night was actually a last resort. The power of the Black Rose has penetrated into the streets and alleys of Kislev City. If a thorough clean-up is not carried out, it will inevitably be impossible to guarantee the future.
For long-term peace and stability in Kislev, those forces lurking in the dark must be eliminated.
However, as a sect, Moorishism cannot disappear from Kislev. The devout and formal Moors will not participate in political battles. They only do one thing in their lives - to extradite the dead to the God of Death and let the dead rest in peace. Kislev
The wind of death in Rif is strong. If the dead cannot be allowed to rest in peace, there is no guarantee that these undead will one day be used by some necromancers with ulterior motives.
Therefore, the remaining Moors must be protected.
After Virgil left, Lord Leonid came on horseback. Before he could reach Rhodes, he dismounted and trotted over.
"The great lord..."
He was about to salute, but was interrupted by Rhodes——
"Let's get down to business."
"Great Lord, we haven't found him. We searched every room and every basement in the residence. We didn't find him."
Leonid reported with a look of self-blame. Rhodes did not mean to blame him at all. In fact, Rhodes knew that he could blame anyone, except Leonid and his son. It was them and their son,
When Kislev was in danger of survival, he led the northern and southern armies and besieged the capital, preventing Pavel's conspiracy from succeeding. He indirectly protected Denis and a group of loyal ministers in the north. If they were blamed for not being able to catch Samuel,
Father and son, I'm afraid people will gossip about you.
Of course, Rhodes also knew from the bottom of his heart that the real motive of the father and son's initial rebellion might not be to save the queen and support the North, but to have their own plans. No one can be absolutely selfless, and the smart thing about Leonid is that
He is very tactful. When the situation is unclear, he uses other people's banners as cover, and remains unchanged in response to changes. He plays a good hand.
"Keep looking. If you can't find it, issue an official document and search the whole city. The traitor must be caught."
Rhodes said in a commanding tone. Leonid had no choice but to accept the order, and he knew he had no choice. Of course, when he first raised his army, he had thought about the outcome like today. Either he would become the new king, or he would become the new king.
The power he obtained was given away to others. The current situation belongs to the latter, but at least he can be regarded as the hero of solving Kislev. He knows that after this chaos is over, he will definitely get new promotions, whether in terms of wealth.
Or in terms of status. As for chasing Samuel, even if Rhodes didn't hurry up, he would hurry up. When he raised his army, he was destined to have an sworn enemy with the former Grand Duke.
