172, a passing villain
But Joan of Arc was alert, and she saw through the trap and replied: "If I don't get it, I hope God will give it to me, and if I have it, maybe God will give it to me." ”
Such a reply made all the people who had passed the court stunned, forced to temporarily suspend the trial, and even no amount of coercion and intimidation could make Joan of Arc relent, and in the end, the British side and some members of the church could only use the dirtiest method of interrogation to convict Joan of Arc, that is, to point out the testimony.
After experiencing the weakness of Joan of Arc's illiteracy, he made her testimony completely unfavorable to her, and then asked Joan of Arc to draw on the revised testimony, and finally confirmed the infamy of heresy and was burned to death.
Of course, this is what happened in the canonical history, and in this world, the environment is completely different, although the attitude of the church has not changed, and even their rights and interests have increased, but the environment of Joan of Arc has changed, and no one knows better than her where the Lord exists, and with the support of the Lord, even in the face of such a huge and friendless church, she has nothing to fear.
She did not hesitate to choose between the aristocratic church and the French people, and the moment she entered this council room, she had already decided that even if there was a complete split with the nobility and the church, she would lead her troops to repel the English and liberate her homeland.
The clear indicators gave Joan of Arc the courage to be fearless, and she looked coldly at the church and aristocratic personnel who were scolding and scolding her, until they had vented and their voices gradually lowered, and she finally spoke: "The French people are suffering from calamity, their lives are threatened, their wealth is plundered, their hometown is trampled by invaders, etc., along the way, I have seen countless French people whose families are ruined and their wives separated, and I can not see the slightest reassurance on their faces, only horror and anxiety, They don't know when a brutal battle will come their way, they just want peace...... And what about you? ”
"When the French people are strewn with corpses, you sit here in fine clothes, when the French people do not even see any hope of livelihood, you argue about the so-called aristocratic etiquette, when the French people give you the money they have worked so hard to earn as taxes, and you sneer at the common people, you ...... Do you really know humiliation? ”
Jeanne d'Arc lifted up her hand and pointed at the nobles and church members one by one, "You eat the flesh of the French people, you drink the blood of the French people, and when the French love and suffer and thirst for your care, you look only at your own strengths, and do not like to extend a helping hand. Even if I want to save France, you are still trying to suppress me, punish me, and even stop me, do you have to let go of the kingdom to fall, can you let go of that desire for power? ”
"Haohao!" When a nobleman heard this, he suddenly stood up and glared at Joan of Arc, as if he was about to rush over and fight Joan of Arc at any moment, and even the nearby warriors were stirred.
The nobleman was very good-looking, at least twice the size of Joan of Arc, but Joan of Arc did not look at him.
"Sit down for me!"
The four words came out, Joan of Arc's voice was not loud, but it fell in the ears of these people like thunder, with a strong shock, and even there seemed to be a heavy pressure in the air, and everyone reflexively closed their mouths and looked at Joan of Arc blankly, and the nobleman who stood up and blamed Joan of Arc sat back with a thud.
Suddenly, there was silence in the chamber.
With just the aura, Joan of Arc shook the entire French ruling class.
The oppression and misery of the aristocracy, the doubts and indignation of the church personnel, these are not taken seriously, she is scolding and scolding by the people, not to endure anything, nor to wait for them to vent and answer anything, because she is clear, these people have been completely blinded by their strengths, their eyes can only see their own strengths, they cannot see the difficulties and hopes of the people, and no matter how much they talk to them, it is useless.
From the beginning, she didn't think of these people as companions for her.
They are, enemies!
Since there is nothing to talk about, there is no need to talk about anything.
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to lend a helping hand, just stay in a stable environment, dress up, eat good food, and enjoy the noble life of your nobility, but ...... I will fight! I will fight the English to the death, drive them out of France completely, so that they will never dare to invade France again! I will do what you don't want to do, and I will do what you can't do, and there's only one thing I want you to do...... Please don't stop me! ”
Following Joan of Arc's words, the air in the council chamber noticed a slight change, and the most excited of them were the military.
For a long time, the military has been the main battle faction, they are not afraid of death, they just want to drive the British out, but in terms of governance attitude, the highest position of the military is a few small nobles, their actions are continuously suppressed by the aristocracy, and they have little right to speak. They want to fight, but whether they can fight or not, it is up to the nobles to decide.
They are expected to have a strong figure in succession, who can resist the oppression of the aristocracy, and can resist the strengths of the aristocracy, so that they can go to the British without worries...... It's a pity that no one has found out until now!
Equally excited is the crown prince Charlie, because there are intricacies and chains of strengths between the nobles, resulting in the continuous seizure of royal power, he, the crown prince, does not control much real power, and now someone is helping him to suppress the nobles, it is really good.
On the other hand, the aristocracy, shocked by Joan of Arc's arrogance, could not say a word.
The Church, on its part, was a little better than the aristocracy, they did not intervene in the struggle for governance, and they were under much less pressure, and Joan of Arc had not yet given clear instructions on the dogma of the Church.
So, after a while, a bishopric stood up and said to Joan of Arc, "How do you prove that God is in you?" ”
Again, it's a snare question, whether Joan of Arc replies or not.
But Joan of Arc did not reply.
"Woo......"
Suddenly, as if he had a heart attack, the bishop clutched his hands tightly on his chest, gasped for breath with a painful look on his face, and then fell to the ground with a thud before anyone around him could come to his senses.
When the people around him came to their senses, the bishop died flatly, and the silver-white cross on his chest was darkened.
The cross is blackened, which is blasphemous evidence of the church!
Joan of Arc looked at the corpse that had fallen to the ground and said quietly, "If it is me who blasphemes, why is it that he is the one who dies and not me?" ”
At this moment, the people of the church looked at Joan of Arc again, and they were already filled with awe, and they did not dare to say anything more.
At this point, the battle between Joan of Arc and the aristocratic church was over, and because of the bishop's bizarre death, the church did not dare to speak out, let alone criticize Joan of Arc, and the nobles, who were more afraid of death than the church personnel, could not set off the slightest more turmoil.
No one can confirm whether Joan of Arc has God's grace, and no one can deny it, but the death of the bishops who condemned Joan of Arc is enough to make anyone who tries to suppress Joan of Arc hedge.
Finally, in an environment that broke all pressure, Crown Prince Charles hired Joan of Arc as the commander-in-chief of the battlefield, led the entire French procession, and gave him the fleur-de-lis flag with the royal emblem.
Now she has the qualifications to represent both the military and the royal family.
At the end of the meeting, as he walked to the door of the council chamber, Joan of Arc seemed to remember something, looked back at the nobles and church personnel, and said, "By the way, God asked me to convey a word, and He said...... God loves all people, but He never loves you. ”
After speaking, Joan of Arc turned to say goodbye.
And these aristocrats and ecclesiastical personnel, as if they had been hollowed out, spread out in their respective positions.
Others don't know what the firstborn is, and they don't know it themselves, but if there are people of the level of gods here, they will find that they have been abused by the gods.
Under this abuse, their life's luck has been stripped of all their lives.
"I'm the right person...... Will it be too hardening? ”
After leaving the council chamber, Joan of Arc did not immediately return to the station, although she was most likely to immediately send troops to repel the British, but the transfer of troops and recruitment was not something that could be completed with a rough mouth, even if there was no pressure on the nobles, it still needed a certain amount of time to discuss the adjustment.
During this era, Joan of Arc was placed in a house near the palace, and the two stray soldiers she brought with her also lived in a separate courtyard, guarded by royal guards...... At least for now, Crown Prince Charles' attitude towards Joan of Arc may be a good match, and he clearly regards Joan of Arc as the savior of France and even the protection of royal power.
From the perspective of ordinary people, Joan of Arc is undoubtedly an incomparably upright character, so upright that he doesn't even look like a woman, and in the words of the high-spirited earl, he is a human stronghold. In fact, whether it is in mind or body, Joan of Arc is indeed too strong to speak, but only in front of Huang Zheng's eyes, she occasionally shows her fragile side.
Like at this moment.
Joan of Arc, who returned to his residence, locked himself in the house and asked Huang Zheng in front of him with some concern. As for the French aristocracy, she treated them as enemies from the very beginning, and adopted an extremely hardened approach, for which she did not repent of it, but was somewhat worried that such an approach would provoke a little unpleasant result.
The only one who can give her this answer is Huang Zheng.
"No, I thought it was quite fluffy, and no one died." Huang Zheng replied nonchalantly.
"If it were you, what would you do?"
Huang Zheng said without hesitation, "It's easy, kill everything, and leave no one." ”
Joan of Arc: "......"
Looking at Joan of Arc's somewhat sluggish expression, Huang Zheng smiled and said: "I'm not joking, the so-called nobles in your country are no different from the pillar insects that erode the beams and pillars, and they are not enough to expose the redundant, I have seen a lot of this kind of waste, although the generation has always been clear, but one knife is cut down, none of them are wronged, killing them all, there is no disadvantage to the only use of the country...... However, innocent killing is the best policy, they control too many rights and interests, and they also have inevitable henchmen, once they are dead, there will be chaos underneath, and even about to provoke riots, for the current France, this is almost fatal. ”
"So what's a good strategy?" Joan of Arc immediately asked.
"The good thing is to suppress them all, confiscate their wealth, levy their army, and exile them and their descendants and relatives, although these waste materials of gold and food are about nothing to be used on the battlefield, but a little dirty work or can be done, even waste products have the price to bear, they have eaten so much people's fat and people's ointment, and they have not been able to repay it for generations, so they have no pity for them."
"But...... That can't be done, right? Joan of Arc frowned, even if she had the ability to sweep thousands of armies on the battlefield, she was not proud to suppress all the nobles in the country, and the invisible chain of strengths was almost an unshakable giant, and if she broke through it with strength, she would only fight with two tigers in the end, which would be useless to save France, and it was too cruel.
"That's right." Huang Zheng shrugged his shoulders, "You can't do it, I can't do it, even if it is broken and then established, then it must start to stand up, and now, this governance system itself is expired and failed, and if it is not erected, if it is too heavy, it will only kill the entire kingdom with one punch, so ...... You have done your best, and they will not disturb you in the war, which is the greatest victory. ”
"Since you said so, then I'm relieved." Joan of Arc nodded, and then there was a hint of curiosity in her eyes, "What is the purpose of the words you want me to convey to them at that time?" ”
"Oh, ah, it just robbed them of their luck."
"Luck?"
"Well, it's easy to say, as a one-sided class, they won't be favored by anything anymore, such as ...... I will swallow my throat when I eat, choke my nose when I drink water, I will be hit by the bed beam when I sleep, I marry a wife and find that I am not a virgin, even if I am a virgin after marriage, I will cheat after marriage...... That's what the foundation looks like. ”
"This ......" Even Joan of Arc shudde, who shuddered when he heard this, was indeed too appalling.
Huang Zheng smiled, "This is an abuse from the origin, the origin descends the abuse, and their qi in this world has come to an end, no matter what they do, they will always go in the worst direction." ”
"Why do you want to do this?" Joan of Arc was puzzled.
"Why......"
Huang Zheng glanced at Joan of Arc's expression, but did not reply.
Neither the aristocracy nor the church were any different from ants to him, and he himself did not bother to get rid of such lowly things, whether it was killing the bishop or sending down invective, the purpose of which was for the sake of Joan of Arc.
He could already see the twilight that was faintly wrapped around Joan of Arc.
Although she was only seventeen years old, although being a maiden was the best age, although she had already obtained the body of a half-immortal saint, she ...... Only Huang Zheng saw that Joan of Arc's life was beginning to come to an end.
Throughout the history of ancient and modern times, every political system and even every country will undergo countless reforms, but, as a huge pioneer of reformers, none of them have always had a good situation, almost all of them have no place to die, and they have promoted the improvement of human experience, but at the cost of their own lives...... Joan of Arc is undoubtedly one of them.
This kind of thing, even with Huang Zheng's skills, can't stop it, in this era, he has been constrained too much, but even so, he doesn't expect the things in the official history to happen in front of him, he tries to change a little bit without affecting the world.
So, the murder of an insignificant bishop shocked the church. So he hurled insults at the nobles and made it impossible for them to sell Joan of Arc, but it seemed that it was of no use.
Huang Zheng looked at Joan of Arc, and her body was still wrapped in twilight.
About this time, Joan of Arc will not be sold by the French aristocracy, and neither England nor the Church will be able to interrogate her, but just like the tightening of the world line, she will inevitably die!
Huang Zheng sighed secretly, he didn't have the ability to change his experience, it was his fatigue.
It was also at this moment that he could deeply feel that as an individual, his skills were limited, and the so-called invincibility was finally only because he knew too little, unilateral invincibility, and could only show his ignorance.
Even if it is as strong as his previous life, with a single kick, he can destroy countless multiple worlds, and he can break through the dimensional wall with a casual blow, even if he is as strong as the time tour group, he has a full twelve peerless strongmen of his level, isn't there something that cannot be done.
The more you climb up, the more you can feel your own smallness and fatigue, and human beings are probably such creatures.
But Huang Zheng is not expected to report this matter to Joan of Arc, since it can't be handled, then watch it quietly, ignorance may not be a kind of happiness.
In the following time, Huang Zheng and Joan of Arc talked a lot, mostly a few useless empty words, but because Huang Zheng said it, Joan of Arc listened very devotedly, and time passed little by little in such an exchange.
It wasn't until a few days later that the transfer of the army was finally completed, and under the pressure of Joan of Arc and the royal family, even the aristocracy had to hand over some of the military power and materials to help in the battle. At this time, Joan of Arc also held numerous discussions with Guildley and other well-known lords.
Although Joan of Arc was just an illiterate village girl, she had the ability to produce battles, and many of the constructive uses she proposed not only opened the eyes of these generals, but even the emperor Zheng who was watching from the sidelines thought that it was something ahead of the times...... Of course, it is probably because there are so many times ahead of time that many people cannot understand a small number of things, and can only think that they are the power of God.
Then, on the ninth day of Hinon, Joan of Arc set out with a new army.
This force, which mobilized most of the most warlike generals and the most courageous soldiers in France at this time, rose to the front line with great momentum.
The battle was held in waves, under the leadership of Joan of Arc, the French ** team showed unprecedented combat effectiveness, a farewell to the image of the soft-footed shrimp in the past, this time the French army was almost invincible, after more than a month of fighting, the northern territory that was originally taken away by the British was indeed all returned.
In this era, Huang Zheng is the most idle, he hardly interferes in anything, but even so, Joan of Arc still wins every battle with her military ability that is far ahead of her time.
is also, more often, Huang Zheng stays in Joan of Arc's body to sleep and rest.
However, at a certain time when Huang Zheng was resting, the French army suffered its first defeat.
It was a battle at the junction of the two countries, and when the French army tried to annihilate the British ** team, a sun-like knight found himself on the battlefield, and he led a queue wrapped in armor to forcibly murder the French ** team and began a tragic massacre.
In this battle, Gildeley's troops were almost completely wiped out, and only a few dozen horsemen escaped and returned, if it wasn't for Joan of Arc arriving in real time and stopping the enemy army, even Gildley might not have escaped death.
However, the French soldiers could clearly see that although the enemy army had temporarily retreated, even in the confrontation with Joan of Arc, there was no sign of defeat, especially the knight who was like an ordinary knight like the sun, he was indeed the wall that did not fall.
There is a queue led by him, but there are only hundreds of people, but all of them have the courage of ten thousand people.
In this battle, the number of dead French troops exceeded 1,000, while the corpses of the British army were only in double digits.
Such a huge difference completely cast an indelible shadow on the French army.
"It was the middle of the day, the battle was fierce, most of the soldiers of our army were dead and wounded, especially General Guildre, who was seriously wounded, and I did not have time to confirm the identity of the enemy, but in the middle of the battle he declared himself to be a ...... Sun Knight's masterpiece! ”
The French army was stationed at the front base, and as usual, Joan of Arc locked herself in the house, tightly closed the door, and reported the previous battle situation to Huang Zheng, and when she said the word Dazuo, even her own tone was a little surprised.
"Do you know the name Daisaku?" Huang Zheng asked.
"Hmm." Joan of Arc nodded, "In the past, when I was young, there would be a few bards in the village once in a while, and the legend of King Arthur was a story they often told...... Legend has it that at the beginning of the fifth century, which was at the mercy of 900 years ago, the Celtic nation that once ruled England was defeated and ruled by the Roman Empire, until the sixth century, the Germanic peoples invaded one after another, and King Arthur was during this period, with the heroism of the Celts, leading the tribes to defeat the legendary heroes of the Germanic people, and he led a knight of the round table, including Lancelot, Dasaku and other famous knights. ”
"So you question, the masterpiece is the masterpiece of the Knights of the Round Table?"
"It's not a question, it's what he said."
"Ha, that's funny, I really took the initiative to report my identity, saving the effort of investigation, what a passing villain."
Hearing Huang Zheng say this, Joan of Arc was doubly frightened, "Do you think what he said is true?" Is it really the legendary Knights of the Round Table masterpiece? ”。
"Why not?" Huang Zheng spread his hands, "Although in your opinion, the discovery of characters from nearly a thousand years ago is not in line with knowledge now, but there are many things in this world that you can't understand, and even include me. So even if the Knights of the Round Table found out that it was here, there was nothing new, and more precisely, it solved a problem that had been hidden in my heart for a long time. ”
Huang Zheng originally thought that the human experience could not be improved, because of the relationship between players, some players who regarded the dungeon world as a game world, they would not care about the destruction of the dungeon world, and some strong and special players would occasionally destroy the entire world for the sake of their strengths, such as using biochemical viruses to cause zombies to all mankind, and then experiencing such things as hunting zombies to get reward points...... Although there are few of them, there are such people.
